A look at what's happening around the majors today:
___
JUDGE VS. JAYS
Yankees slugger Aaron Judge has hit five home runs in his last five games, part of a surge that's helped New York win nine in a row.
Judge has connected in three straight games. The Yankees lead the majors with a 16-6 record going into a three-game series at Toronto.
George Springer, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and the Blue Jays split four games at Yankee Stadium from April 11-14 in a series that included three shutouts — two by New York pitching. Surprising, considering all the power packed into these lineups.
This series marks the final leg of an early test for Toronto — 16 consecutive games (the last 10 at home) against three 2021 AL playoff teams: Boston, Houston and New York.
OHTANI OK
Angels star Shohei Ohtani said he expects to be back in the lineup a day after making an early exit because of tightness in his right groin.
The two-way AL MVP was the Angels’ designated hitter when he was pulled for a pinch-hitter in the ninth inning of Sunday’s 6-5 win over the Chicago White Sox.
“I was taken out for safety reasons. I was perfectly OK with it,” Ohtani said through a translator.
Angels manager Joe Maddon said Ohtani might have tweaked his groin running to first in the seventh inning on a grounder back to pitcher Jose Ruiz that the White Sox turned into a double play.
Ohtani is batting .228 with four home runs, 12 RBIs and four stolen bases this season. As a pitcher, he’s 2-2 with a 4.19 ERA, striking out 30 in 19 1/3 innings.
CORREA'S STREAK
After a slow start since signing with the Twins, star shortstop Carlos Correa is finding his stroke.
Correa posted his fourth straight multi-hit game Sunday as Minnesota beat the Rays 9-3. The streak has raised his batting average from .167 to .256.
Correa, who got a $105.3 million, three-year contract from the Twins, tries to keep the string going when Minnesota begins a series at Baltimore.
MAKING THE CUT
Rosters for big league teams will be cut from 28 players down to 26 starting this week, forcing teams to make some tough choices.
The expanded rosters helped clubs deal with a shortened spring training after the MLB lockout. Teams can continue to carry 14 pitchers through May 30.
Yankees pitcher Clarke Schmidt was optioned back to Triple-A after getting the win Sunday at Kansas City. The 26-year-old righty has a 1.08 ERA in four games.
“It’s a real tough pill to swallow,” Schmidt said. “It’s a tough part of the game, but it’s a business also.”
NL EAST WATCH
In their initial matchup of the season, the first-place New York Mets host Ronald Acuña Jr. and the World Series champion Atlanta Braves at Citi Field.
Chris Bassitt (3-1, 2.25 ERA) pitches for the Mets against Max Fried (2-2, 3.00) in the opener of a four-game series that includes a single-admission doubleheader Tuesday. Fried has won his last two starts, allowing one run and six hits with 12 strikeouts over 13 innings.

Qantas has confirmed the Airbus order that ushers in a new world's longest commercial flight. The airline will order 12 A350-1000s, 20 A220s and 20 A321XLRs.
The A350-1000 was selected by Qantas following an evaluation known as Project Sunrise and will enable the carrier to operate the world's longest commercial flights. These will include linking Sydney and Melbourne with destinations such as London and New York non-stop for the first time ever.
Featuring a premium layout, the A350 fleet will also be used by Qantas on other international services. The A350-1000 is powered by the latest generation Trent XWB engines from Rolls-Royce.
It is a boost to the Airbus Broughton site in North Wales where wings for the A350 and A321XLRs jets would be made.

In the single aisle category the A220 and A321XLR were chosen under an evaluation called Project Winton. The aircraft will be used by the Qantas Group on domestic services across the country, which can extend to over five hours. In addition, the A321XLR offers the range capability for flights from Australia to South East Asia, enabling the Qantas Group to open up new direct routes. The A220 and A321XLR fleets will both be powered by Pratt & Whitney GTF engines.
This agreement is in addition to the existing order for 109 A320neo Family aircraft, which includes the A321XLR for the Qantas Group low cost subsidiary Jetstar. The news was announced at a ceremony in Sydney attended by Qantas Group CEO Alan Joyce and Airbus Chief Commercial Officer and Head of Airbus International, Christian Scherer.
Qantas Group CEO Alan Joyce said: “New types of aircraft make new things possible. That’s what makes today’s announcement so significant for the national carrier and for a country like Australia where air travel is crucial. The A350 and Project Sunrise will make any city just one flight away from Australia. It’s the last frontier and the final fix for the tyranny of distance.”
“The A320s and A220s will become the backbone of our domestic fleet for the next 20 years, helping to keep this country moving. Their range and economics will make new direct routes possible. The Board’s decision to green light what is the largest aircraft order in Australian aviation is a clear vote of confidence in the future of Qantas.”
Christian Scherer, Airbus Chief Commercial Officer and Head of Airbus International said: "Qantas is one of the world’s iconic airlines, with a visionary spirit from its inception over 100 years ago. We are honoured by the confidence that Qantas is placing in Airbus and look forward to delivering to the Group one of the world’s most modern, efficient and sustainable fleets. This decision by Qantas underscores the position of the A350 as the reference long range widebody aircraft."
The A220, A321XLR and A350 are bring a step change in efficiency, using up to 25% less fuel, a similar reduction in carbon emissions and a noise footprint 50% lower than previous generation aircraft. All in-production Airbus aircraft are certified to fly with a 50% sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) blend, with a target to increase this to 100% by 2030. | https://www.dailypost.co.uk/news/north-wales-news/qantas-confirms-airbus-order-ushers-23839955 | 2022-05-02T07:01:19Z | https://www.dailypost.co.uk/news/north-wales-news/qantas-confirms-airbus-order-ushers-23839955 | true | 2 |

DENVER (KDVR) — According to our affiliates at FOX News, John Ramsey, the father of murdered JonBenet Ramsey, announced on Saturday the start of a petition asking Gov. Jared Polis to allow an independent agency to conduct DNA testing in the case rather than the Boulder Police Department.
“I hope Jared Polis has the sense to leave it in the hands of experts who have been working on this case for over 20 years,” Mitch Morrissey, the former Denver district attorney and current chief of operations at United Data Connect said.
As the Denver DA, Morrissey assisted the Boulder County DA’s office for a time in the Ramsey case. He told FOX31 he finds the petition ridiculous.
“It’s a petition to hopefully get the state of Colorado to intervene and have the items from the crime scene that could be tested for DNA that haven’t been tested,” Ramsey told Fox News Digital at the CrimeCon 2022 convention in Las Vegas on Saturday. “It’s going to take a lot of help to get that moving again. But you know, the government is very reactive and we’re talking about politicians. We want them to do the right thing.”
“A bunch of people signs a petition that does not understand the techniques and difficulties in this case. I know the BPD understands it,” Morrissey said.
The petition now has over 1,700 signatures. But Morrissey said he guarantees BPD is looking at new DNA techniques to run on the JonBenet case.
A spokesperson with the Governor’s office responded to FOX31 about the new petition:
“The state will review the petition and look into how the state can assist in using new technology to further investigate this cold case and to identify JonBenet Ramsey’s killer and bring him or her to justice.”
The Boulder Police Department also responded to the petition:
The Boulder Police Department is aware of the recent request involving the homicide investigation of JonBenet Ramsey and wants the community to know that it has never wavered in its pursuit to bring justice to everyone affected by the murder of this little girl.
Ever since Dec. 26, 1996, detectives have followed up on every lead that has come into the department, to include more than 21,016 tips, letters and emails and traveling to 19 states to interview or speak with more than 1,000 individuals in connection to this crime.
This case has been under constant review with federal, state, and local partners. As recently as March 2022, the Boulder Police Department hosted another meeting with federal, state, and local agencies working on this case and in consultation with DNA experts from around the country. That collaboration will continue.
Boulder Police have sought out and worked regularly with multiple stakeholders across the country, to include the FBI, the Boulder County District Attorney’s Office, Colorado’s Department of Public Safety, Colorado’s Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and several outside forensic labs. Multiple suspects have been run through the system to check for matches due the huge advances in DNA technology. As of this past December, CBI has updated over 750 reference samples with the latest DNA technology.
Additionally, Boulder Police have worked with CBI to ensure the DNA in the system can be compared correctly to new DNA samples that have been uploaded to ensure accuracy. That DNA is checked regularly for any new matches.
The Boulder Police Department understands how grievous the loss of a child is for both the Ramsey family and the community as a whole. That’s why detectives have steadfastly worked to solve this horrible crime.
“We have a shared goal to bring justice—and hopefully some peace—to JonBenet’s family and everyone who was impacted by her loss,” Police Chief Maris Herold said. “Our investigation with federal, state and local partners has never stopped. That includes new ways to use DNA technology. We’ve always used state-of-the-art technology as it has been at the forefront of this investigation. Every time the DNA technology changed, we worked to make sure the evidence could be tested.
“This investigation has always been and will continue to be a priority for the Boulder Police Department.”
Boulder County District Attorney Michael Dougherty concurred.
“Every unsolved homicide is a tragedy, especially when the victim is a child,” Dougherty said. “The murder of JonBenet Ramsey has left a long, terrible trail of heartbreak and unanswered questions.

The nation's prison population hit 2.1 million people last year -- a record high. Law enforcement officials, charity workers, and others are just starting to focus on what happens when all those inmates get out. On Morning Edition, NPR's Steve Inskeep reports on efforts in Baltimore, Md., to find jobs for those who are determined to stay out of prison.
In Baltimore, 8,500 prisoners are released into the city every year. Karstent Jeffries, one of the latest to be freed, was released last week. The 33-year-old convicted armed robber works as a die cutter press operator at K & W Finishing Inc., a paper cutting plant. He found the job while he was still in prison.
"Anyone that's been in prison a lengthy period of time (who says) they're not scared, they're lying," Jeffries says. "They're scared to face their fears. My fear (is) what am I going to do? How am I going to adapt to society? Going out looking for a job, how will they take me? They say, 'We don't hire convicted felons, especially robbers.'"
Kathy Holmes, a supervisor at K & W, says her company decided to hire convicts because it needs the workers and because the owner wanted to give people a second chance.
"You have to throw all your stereotypes out the window, you really do," Holmes says. "I don't ask them, 'What did you do? Why are you here?' I focus more on what their skills are, what their personality is, and where they've been."

American International Group (NYSE: AIG) is scheduled to report its fiscal Q1 2022 results on Tuesday, May 3, 2022 (after market close). We expect AIG to beat the consensus estimates for revenues and earnings. The insurance giant reported better than expected results in the last quarter, with the top-line increasing 46% y-o-y to $14.1 billion. This could be attributed to a 33% y-o-y increase in the premiums, partially offset by a 10% drop in the net investment income (NII). The premiums grew 189% y-o-y to $2.7 billion in the life & retirement division driven by higher pension risk transfer sales in the quarter. It was followed by a 7% y-o-y rise in net written premiums in the general insurance segment to $5.6 billion. Further, total net realized gains (losses) improved from -$2.3 billion to $167 million in the quarter. On the flip side, the NII primarily suffered because of lower returns from fair value option equity and fixed income securities, partially offset by strong income from private equity. We expect the revenues to follow the same trend in the first quarter.
Our forecast indicates that American International Group’s valuation is $69 per share, which is 16% more than the current market price of around $59. Our interactive dashboard analysis on American International Group’s Earnings Preview has more details.
(1) Revenues expected to top the consensus estimates
American International Group’s revenues increased 19% y-o-y in 2021 to $52.1 billion. It was because of a 10% y-o-y growth in the premiums and a 7% rise in the net investment income (NII).
- The total premium figure improved 10% y-o-y in 2021, primarily driven by a 6% increase in the general insurance and a 30% jump in the life & retirement divisions. While both the North America and international sub-segments of the general insurance unit posted growth, life & retirement mainly benefited from growth in the institutional markets category. We expect the same momentum to continue in the first quarter.
- NII is very important for the profitability of any insurance company, and AIG is no different. The revenue stream suffered in 2020 due to low investment yields. However, it posted a 7% y-o-y increase in 2021, primarily driven by higher returns from the private equity portfolio. Further, the Fed has increased the interest rate by a quarter percentage point in the first quarter, which is likely to have a positive impact on NII.
- Overall, we expect AIG’s revenues to remain around $51.8 billion for FY2022.
Trefis estimates AIG’s fiscal Q1 2022 revenues to be around $12.28 billion, 5% above the $11.65 billion consensus estimate. We expect the growth in the general insurance division and net investment income to drive the first-quarter results.
After almost two years of the zero-rate policy, the Federal Reserve slightly increased the interest rate in March 2022. It is expected to be followed by multiple rate hikes in the year, benefiting the NII. Further, the improvement in the economy is likely to boost the total premiums. Our dashboard on American International Group’s revenues offers more details on the company’s operating segments along with our forecast for FY2022.
2) EPS is likely to beat the consensus estimates
AIG Q1 2022 adjusted earnings per share (EPS) is expected to be $1.27 per Trefis analysis, beating the consensus estimate of $1.18 by 8%. The company’s adjusted net income significantly improved in 2021 – from -$6 billion to $9.4 billion. It was partly due to growth in the top line and partly due to a decrease in total benefits, losses, & expenses as a % of revenues from 117% to 77%. We expect the same trend to continue in the first quarter. Overall, AIG is likely to report an annual GAAP EPS of $6.98 for FY2022.
(3) Stock price estimate is 16% more than the current market price
We arrive at American International Group’s valuation, using a GAAP EPS estimate of around $6.98 and a P/E multiple of just below 10x in fiscal 2022. This translates into a price of $69, which is 16% more than the current market price of approximately $59.
Note: P/E Multiples are based on Share Price at the end of the year and reported (or expected) Adjusted Earnings for the full year

With changes to Hill Road and Clevedon Seafront having commenced, a number of residents and local businesses have continued to fight the proposals. One resident, Cathy Hawkins, who helped start Save Our Seafront (SOS) and staged a protest in the town last week, raised concerns with how the consultation was carried out.
She claims that the questions on such consultation last April were biased and did not actually allow feedback on the actual plans. She said: "My concern is that the questions in the consultation were loaded and biased and did not actually allow feedback on the actual plans. I completed the feedback and had to shoehorn my objections into free text with limited characters, so I was unable to give all the feedback I wished to do. I am sure others had the same issue".
Other businesses have also spoken out about the changes, with concerns about parking, cycle lanes and bus routes all raised in the past months. She added: "Others who run businesses on the seafront wrote letters of objection and when questioning NSC if the letters had been received were told that their Letters of objection were conveniently lost in the post.

"The businesses on the seafront are 100 per cent against the plans and say they have not been consulted. One even employed a barrister to fight the plans which cost over £10,000 but had no response from NSC so had to reluctantly give up. Are they going to compensate these businesses for the loss of trade?"
On the 'You said, we did' document published, car parking was addressed. It states: "We are aware that car parking is a sensitive issue in the area, and this is reflected in the consultation responses. We will provide more parking spaces across the area as a whole. There will be a net gain of five parking spaces including new disabled and loading bays. The Hawthorns Car Park will be made more prominent through better signage and potential re-branding to help identify it with The Beach area".
An example of a question on the consultation reads: 'Please tell us what you would like to see improved at The Beach, Clevedon?'
The provision of appropriate levels of car parking (45 per cent) and more plants and trees (40 per cent) and use of high-quality materials (39 per cent) were the most common responses in terms of improvements at The Beach, to which Mrs Hawkins said: "Only 25 per cent wanted cycling prioritised hardly a majority in favour! More wanted car parking than cycling!".
As it stands, the beach is set to lose parking spaces on its main road, with a cycle lane introduced to help aid the 'Pier to Pier' cycleway.
Hawkins also added: "Half of respondents were in favour of the draft proposals for The Beach and Hill Road. 42 per cent were against and 8 per cent remained neutral. This was about 1,000 people and so far, nearly 4,500 have objected to the petition against the changes so 3,500 against and only about 500 in favour. Hardly a glowing endorsement of your plans."
Liam Fox has also voiced his concerns with the changes, which he branded the "craziest plans I’ve seen in my 30 years as an MP". In a rally on Saturday, January 29 outside the Moon and Sixpence pub, angry locals gathered to express their opposition to the proposals, which would see a number of significant changes to Clevedon beach and Hill Road. This was followed by a second protest on Saturday, April 23 on the seafront. | https://www.somersetlive.co.uk/news/resident-slams-biased-questions-seafront-7010431 | 2022-05-02T07:11:40Z | https://www.somersetlive.co.uk/news/resident-slams-biased-questions-seafront-7010431 | false | 1 |
In a few days I will be driving a new car that I know very little about. It’s called the Maserati MC20 and has to be about the least promoted product I’ve ever tested. There was a web show in Italy eighteen months ago that attracted about 50 people (according to the standing expression you should add something like ‘and a horse’s head’, but that always leads to brand confusion with Italian brands – or godfatherconnotations, both of which I prefer to avoid), and David Beckham seems to have somehow acquired some excellent drifting skills in it. I don’t know anything else. And I’m very happy about that.
Autos and marketing have always been closely linked, but for far too long the power within auto companies has been focused on those who get the message across rather than those who make great cars. Well, Maserati seems to be doing things differently now, as it looks like it spent about four bucks promoting what has to be pretty much the most exciting sports car it’s made since the 250F in 1954. I think we should assume that the rest of the money has been spent on the way he drives. And guys, that sounds good, right?
Opel used to throw money
Was it the Opel Corsa from the 90s that suffered from a billion dollar advertising budget? A whole pack of supermodels sat on them and in them and rode them, and that must have helped sell a few more than expected. But then GM Europe went one step further with the Vectra – I thought, at least – and openly boasted that the marketing budget was greater than what it had cost to get the car on the market.
Meanwhile, Ford did the opposite and spent a lot of money to make the Mondeo a great driving car. The Vectra was a clunky loft to drive and probably the start of the slippage from Vauxhall, here in the UK. When the marketing department is given too much power, bad things happen.
Sometimes it’s better to ignore the marketing department
Auto companies are so marketing driven that they will find ways to spend huge amounts of money on, well, marketing. I’ve always found that odd because there are plenty of examples of cars that have made it with very little promotion. Outside of North America, Porsche almost never advertised the 911. Didn’t find them necessary. After all, this was the company the marketing department ignored when they said in 1973 that the model with the weird little spoiler on the back would never sell. The enthusiasts won the discussion and the 2.7 RS became one of the Really Greats.
Ever seen an ad from Ferrari? Well no. An Ariel Atom? Not really. And now Maserati has joined the club. There’s something very refreshing in confidence about a car company that says, “You know where we are, you can read the reviews or watch the reviews, and if you want a test drive, we’ll do our best.”
It makes Maserati seem to know they have a winner on their hands. Of course I could also be completely wrong that this is the umpteenth ‘collection of parts’, such as Maserati has put together in the last twenty years. Even then, the way he’s been introduced in near-silence intrigues me and I suspect, I suspect, many others.

Big Brother fans have rejoiced as the show prepares to kick off on Monday, May 9, with a special twist.
In 2022, Big Brother Australia turns 21, and this season sees 13 new housemates enter the famed residence alongside eight members of returning Big Brother royalty.
WATCH IN THE VIDEO ABOVE: Reggie Bird returns in new season of Big Brother
Watch Big Brother on Channel 7 and stream it for free on 7plus >>
The housemates will be cut off from the outside world, with cameras and microphones recording their every move 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
So what exactly does this year’s famous abode look like?
Where is the Big Brother Australia house?
The Big Brother house is known to have moved around over the years, from the Gold Coast to its location near Manly, NSW, last year.
For 2022, the house sits in the White Pavillion at Sydney Olympic Park.
7Entertainment was granted an exclusive tour of the new digs, and access to surprise never-before-seen rooms.
Kitchen
As you arrive at the Big Brother house, the first thing you see is the open kitchen that features all the appliances any housemate could need, and to housemate Reggie Bird’s delight, a dishwasher!
The kitchen looks onto an open floor plan dining area to the left, that includes a huge table, to seat all housemates in one go.
To the right is a living area that features a gigantic projector screen used for conversations with host Sonia Kruger.
The Garden
The open plan living space looks out onto the garden, where housemates may be seen soaking up some rays or going for a dip.
This year, guests have access to both a pool and spa, elevated on two separate decks.
For those who need an escape, this year’s house has a treehouse, a zen space perfect for (somewhat) private conversations, dates, or somewhere where housemates can simply gather thoughts.
The mezzanine
A new room for 2022, the mezzanine is an upstairs luxury suite situated just above the kitchen area.
Only a select few have exclusive access to the area at a time.
Bedrooms
In this house, there are two large bedrooms featuring a line-up of single beds, decked out in teal and orange bedding.
Situated just behind the bedrooms are laundry rooms where you may find the housemates attending to their own washing.
Bathrooms
Just down the hall from the bedrooms, a grand bathroom is present with LED mirrors lining the walls.
Housemates have plenty of room to get ready for the day with individual mirrors and sinks.
The yard
Separate from the house is the yard, where housemates battle it out in the arena.
Mainly used for nomination challenges the housemates will be tested in ways they never thought were possible.
Secret rooms
This year, the house hides two secret rooms unknown to most housemates.
The first is the ‘mainframe’, the nerve center of the Big Brother house.
Any housemate found in this room can monitor every other housemate. Long story short, they can control the house and other housemates.
The second (not so glamorous) room is the underground sewer. Here you’ll find old pipes and valves that control the plumbing and fresh air in the house.
We’re smelling trouble already.
Diary room
And of course, the best is saved for last - the infamous diary room.
The 2022 diary room is a futuristic design with an undeniably large chair, able to fit multiple housemates at once.
Watch the unmissable new season of Big Brother Monday 9 May, 7:30 pm AEST on Channel 7 and 7plus.

Dozens of civilians have been evacuated from the Azovstal steelworks in Mariupol under an international rescue effort.
The civilians are the first to leave the site since Vladimir Putin declared victory in the battle for the port city on 21 April.
Those rescued, largely women and children, were initially taken to a temporary accommodation centre in the village of Bezimenne in the Donetsk Region.
They travelled on buses with Ukrainian number plates in a convoy with Russian forces and vehicles with United Nations symbols.
UN spokesperson Saviano Abreu said a “safe passage operation” began on 29 April and is being coordinated with the International Committee of the Red Cross, Russia and Ukraine.
He said rescuers arrived at the steelworks on Saturday morning, but no further details of the “very complex” operation could be released so as not to jeopardise the safety of evacuees and the convoy.
Much of the sprawling Soviet-era industrial plant, which is the last Ukraine-occupied area in the city holding out against Russian forces, has been levelled by repeated bombardment.
Ukrainian soldiers and fighters from the controversial Azov Batallion are among those sheltering underground in the steelworks, alongside hundreds of civilians.
Ukraine’s leader Volodymyr Zelensky later said around 100 people had been freed.
He tweeted: “Evacuation of civilians from Azovstal began. The 1st group of about 100 people is already heading to the controlled area. Tomorrow we’ll meet them in Zaporizhzhia.
“Grateful to our team! Now they, together with UN, are working on the evacuation of other civilians from the plant.”
Zaporizhzhia, a city about 141 miles (227km) northwest of Mariupol, was the destination of Mariupol residents who managed to flee the city on their own when previous Red Cross and Ukrainian-organised evacuations had to be called off due to ongoing shelling.
Sviatoslav Palamar, Azov regiment deputy commander, said rescuers were “getting civilians out of the rubble with ropes – it’s the elderly, women and children.”
Mr Palamar told CNN that children aged as young as four months old had taken shelter in basements and bunkers.
Videos from inside the steelworks have shown fighters and civilians living in squalid conditions.
Footage showed men with stained bandages, open wounds and amputated limbs as medical staff struggled to treat the wounded.
Sky News reported the clips were shared by two women who said that their husbands are Azov fighters trapped in the plant, where food and water are scarce.
Mariupol’s mayor, Vadym Boychenko, told the BBC that those trapped were “on the borderline between life and death”.
Meanwhile, satellite images from Planet Labs PBC and Maxar Technologies show that the Azovstal steel plant has been largely destroyed by strikes.
Russia abandoned a plan to storm the plant last month, with any battle on the site likely to prove deadly for its own forces as well as Ukraine’s. Instead, Vladimir Putin said that Russian forces should “block off this industrial area so that a fly cannot not pass through”.
“There is no need to climb into these catacombs and crawl underground through these industrial facilities,” he said.
However, Russia has kept up bombing and attacks on the site in a bid to pound those sheltering into submission.
As many as 100,000 people are still believed to be living in Mariupol, with up to 1,000 civilians and 2,000 Ukrainian fighters in the Azovstal plant. | https://inews.co.uk/news/first-civilians-evacuated-mariupol-steelworks-hundreds-still-living-underneath-1605072 | 2022-05-02T07:20:31Z | https://inews.co.uk/news/first-civilians-evacuated-mariupol-steelworks-hundreds-still-living-underneath-1605072 | false | 1 |
ZURICH (AP)American forward Jordan Pefok scored his Swiss league-leading 22nd goal, converting a penalty kick in the seventh minute of second-half stoppage time Sunday to give Young Boys a 2-1 win at Sion.
Pefok sent his kick to the right of goalkeeper Kevin Fickentscher, who dived left.
The 25-year-old forward, who was born in Washington, D.C., and raised in France, has a career-best 27 goals in 43 club games this season, including 22 league goals in 31 matches.
Pefok made his U.S. debut on March 25, 2021, and has one goal in nine international appearances.

State of Origin is all about bragging rights ... but which state has the ultimate bragging rights?
We take a look at how New South Wales and Queensland have fared over the years.
NSW or QLD: Which state has won more Origin series?
There have been 40 full series of State of Origin, and Queensland has won 22 of them. New South Wales has won 16 series, with the remaining two being drawn.
Three one-off games were played in 1980, 1981, and 1987, with Queensland winning the first two and New South Wales the latter.
Of the 117 total State of Origin games played, Queensland has won 62 and New South Wales has claimed 53, with two matches being drawn.
A lot of Queensland's success has come in the last two decades. Notably, the Maroons won eight consecutive series from 2006 to 2013.
Last five State of Origin series
The NSW Blues have enjoyed the majority of success in recent years, claiming three of the past five series.
However, each series has typically been closely fought, with neither state able to claim a 'whitewash' victory.
When and where is Origin Game 1?
For the first time since 2020, State of Origin will be returning to Sydney's Stadium Australia (currently known as Accor Stadium).
The venue last hosted a series-opener in 2016 and is sure to welcome a packed house this time around, with New South Wales having won three of the past four series.
Brad Fittler's side will go into the match on June 8 with plenty of confidence - the Blues have won 19 of the 29 Origin matches at the venue. | https://www.sportingnews.com/au/rugby-league/news/state-origin-which-state-has-won-more-origin-series/vvnefwjhmu4tsaxeqcwdeksv | 2022-05-02T07:22:22Z | https://www.sportingnews.com/au/rugby-league/news/state-origin-which-state-has-won-more-origin-series/vvnefwjhmu4tsaxeqcwdeksv | true | 1 |
Family of gay man found at the bottom of a Sydney cliff in a hate crime that was originally dismissed as suicide speak out about their 34-year-long fight for justice
Family members of Scott Johnson whose body was found at the bottom of a Manly cliff in 1988 have spoken of the horror, terror, tragedy and heartbreak that the past 34 years have brought.
Mr Johnson's sister Terry Johnson said Scott White, who pleaded guilty to the murder in January this year, had taken away decades from her brother's life.
"The hateful person who killed Scott has been walking free on this earth for the past 33 years. Thirty-three years that he took away from my baby brother. I believe [White] deserves life in prison."
Scott Johnson's (pictured) body was found at the bottom of a Manly cliff in 1988
With White looking on from the NSW Supreme Court dock wearing his prison greens, sister Rebecca Johnson talked about how society in the 1980s had also let down teenagers who thought violence against gay men was acceptable.
"Parents, brothers and sisters, teachers and classmates, authority, culture, somehow Mr White's world reinforced that violence and even killing was OK and maybe that gay men weren't human. That is a profound tragedy," she said on Monday.
Rebecca Johnson (left), and Terry Johnson, sisters of Scott Johnson were at New South Wales Supreme Court on Monday
Ms Johnson questioned why her brother, an American mathematician, was placed in the crosshairs of deadly violence and murder simply for who he chose to love.
Brother Steve Johnson described the death as being too huge and awful to be true, saying his mother had reacted with a wailing cry at the news.
"The wailing is a reliving, it's a howl of death and despair and loss and grief that signifies that a piece of us has departed. It never goes away."
Michael Noone (pictured) gave a statement in court on Monday, describing the sheer horror of receiving a call from the police about the death of a loved one
Scott Johnson's partner Michael Noone also gave a statement describing the sheer horror of receiving a call from the police about the death of a loved one.
These victim statements were heard after White's former partner Helen White took the stand and described a conversation with her ex-husband in December 1998 about his "poofter bashing" of the 1980s.
"He said the only good poofter is a dead poofter, to which I said, 'So you threw him off the cliff'. And he said, 'It's not my fault the dumb c*** ran off the cliff'," she said.
Rebecca Johnson questioned why her brother, an American mathematician (pictured), was placed in the crosshairs of deadly violence and murder simply for who he chose to love
Ms White denied suggestions by White's barrister Belinda Rigg SC that she had only gone to the police because of a $1 million reward offered in 2018 for information about Mr Johnson's death, and rejected claims she had made up the conversations with her then husband.
Ms Rigg argued that White should receive a lesser sentence because he had only turned 18 at the time, saying that sentences for murder were significantly lower in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
White's intellectual impairments meant he had suffered stress, anxiety and panic attacks while in custody. During the 1980s, White was a gay man who had lived with his homophobic brother and alcoholic parents, Ms Rigg told Justice Helen Wilson.
The prosecution pointed to the seriousness of the offence, saying it was targeted towards the victim's sexuality.
"This was a grave and serious murder which entailed a high degree of criminality," the crown prosecutor said.
Steve Johnson described the death of his brother Scott (pictured) as being too huge and awful to be true, saying his mother had reacted with a wailing cry at the news
In January, White pleaded guilty to murder before his defence team unsuccessfully tried to reverse the plea. An appeal of White's conviction was filed last month.
While the initial police inquest in 1989 found Mr Johnson's death was a suicide, the case was reopened in 2012. Another inquest returned an open finding in June 2012, but a third in 2017 found Mr Johnson fell from the clifftops as a result of violence by an unidentified attacker who perceived him to be gay.
Justice Wilson will hand down her sentence on Tuesday. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10774151/A-family-fighting-justice-death-brother.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-05-02T07:22:42Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10774151/A-family-fighting-justice-death-brother.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | true | 7 |

WATCH: Indian athletes parade to loud cheers at Deaflympics 2021 opening ceremony
The Indian contingent in the parade was led by the tennis World Deaf Championships medallist Prithvi Sekhar.
The Deaflympics 2021 kickstarted with a grand opening ceremony on Sunday at Caxias do Sul, Brazil. India has sent its largest-ever contingent of 65 athletes, including heavyweights like wrestler Virender Singh, golfer Diksha Dagar and others for the quadrennial event.
The opening ceremony of the 15-day event saw the traditional "Parade of Nations" on Sunday. The Indian contingent in the parade was led by the tennis World Deaf Championships medallist Prithvi Sekhar.
Several of the athletes, who were in the parade danced to the upbeat music of the opening ceremony and looked jubilant. The Deaflympics this year will feature 209 events across 17 sports. The Games were originally scheduled to take place in December last year but was postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. | https://thebridge.in/others/watch-indian-athletes-parade-deaflympics-opening-ceremony-31135 | 2022-05-02T07:27:28Z | https://thebridge.in/others/watch-indian-athletes-parade-deaflympics-opening-ceremony-31135 | false | null |
The weeHouse exteriors are clad in corrugated Cor-Ten, but with a custom pattern of folds to create an organic randomness. The foundations were designed with a shallow recess around the top to make the modules look like they’re hovering. After they bought the property in early 2014, the Siegels camped there for two summers while they saved up money and planned a permanent structure. In his research, BJ came across this design, a customizable prefab house by Alchemy Architects. "Of all the things that I found, I was drawn to that one because it was absolutely the simplest and cleanest," he says. | https://www.dwell.com/@georgiamorgan | 2022-05-02T07:29:54Z | https://www.dwell.com/@georgiamorgan | false | null |

Following are excerpts of Iris Kluber's "Prairie Diary" recollecting her day in Kansas, Oct. 11, 2001:
Dear Future Kansas Resident,
At 7:45 a.m., just as I was finishing up my morning papers, a call came from my neighbor asking about our monthly Ladies Aid meeting. I'd forgotten all about it and made plans with our youngest daughter... As I've aged, seem to forget more things. My friend calls them senior moments...
We prepared apples for drying, Ozark Black apples from our own orchard. Our daughter came from Olathe, had a small home maintenance project that her Dad and I helped with. Sent home with her enough apples for her to dry at least two big batches and some extra for her to share with her close friend...
After our daughter left, I read a new Family Tree magazine and checked my e-mail to see if I'd gotten any useful family history information from look-ups I'd requested from York County, Pennsylvania. Was disappointed, still can't find the link between my Ohio Neidigs and those in Pennsylvania. But won't give up trying until I do.
Read on my Sunday School lesson for Sunday, try to read some from the Scriptures every day...
Spoke to a friend to see that she was doing all right after the death of her brother. Checked e-mail and answered a couple of requests for information about this project our Church ladies are going to do.
Watched the news on TV, am concerned about those who had family killed and hurt in the terrorist attack and those who now have family in the military...
I took a shower at 11:20 p.m., said my prayers and retired. Thankful to be an American, where I have freedom to worship and think as I like. I'm happy to be living in the mid-west where we are more conservative in our life style and a more friendly people than those we met while living years ago in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
I have a good life full of family, church and neighborhood.... I am well and active and have turned 65 in August. Life is good and I am a happy woman.
Sincerely,
Iris M. Kluber

World Asthma Day 2022: 5 Yoga asanas to keep your health in check
World Asthma Day 2022: Asthma is a long-term disease of the lungs. People suffering from asthma have narrow airways which swell up to produce extra mucus. This condition further leads to coughing, wheezing along with shortness of breath. People suffering from this condition have difficulty in doing normal chores and physical activity that involves a lot of movement such as running, brisk walking, dancing, etc. Reasons of having asthma can be many – people exposed to certain airborne substances, medications, allergens, respiratory infections, or stress can get the disease.

Yoga can be taken up as an alternate treatment for curing asthma. In an interview with HT Lifestyle, Yoga expert Akshar said, “You can control its symptoms through recommended yoga practices such as pranayama, and asanas. Spend enough time in each pose paying attention to your breath. Keep the pace of your practice slow to medium as per your comfort. Hold each posture between 10-30 seconds and repeat up to 3 sets.” He further pointed out five yoga asanas that can help in keeping the health in check:
Vajrasana - Thunderbolt pose: This yoga asana helps in mobilising the calf muscles and strengthening the feet, ankles and the knee caps. It also helps in boosting digestion and makes for a good posture for meditation.
Paschimottanasana - Seated forward bend: This yoga asana helps in reducing fatty deposites in the abdomen and stretching the spine. It also helps in acting as a stress reliever and calming the mind.
Ustrasana – Camel pose: This yoga asana helps in stretching the entire front of the body, the ankles, thighs, groins, abdomen, chest, and throat. It also helps in strengthening the back muscles and improving the overall posture of the body.
Padmasana – Lotus pose: This asana helps in working out of the lower back and hip muscles. It also helps in elongating the spine and boosting the agility of the hips.
Chakrasana - Wheel pose: The wheel pose helps in burning the fat in the abdominal area and increasing the elasticity of the spine. It also helps in stimulating endocrine glands and strengthening a range of muscles, including the back, hands and legs. | https://www.hindustantimes.com/lifestyle/health/world-asthma-day-2022-5-yoga-asanas-to-keep-your-health-in-check-101651059174836-amp.html | 2022-05-02T08:03:43Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/lifestyle/health/world-asthma-day-2022-5-yoga-asanas-to-keep-your-health-in-check-101651059174836-amp.html | false | 2 |
For autism mothers
DR RADICA MAHASE
“There are days when I have no idea what I am doing. I look at my son having a meltdown and I feel hopeless. Did I do something to cause this meltdown? What did I miss? How can I be his mother and not know what to do?
Mia is the mother of a six-year-old boy who was recently diagnosed with autism. Even before her son’s diagnosis, she has been physically and emotionally stressed. Mia is not different from many other mothers whose children have been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.
Research has shown that parenting a child with a special need or any disability can have a significant impact on parents’ mental health. According to one study by Crenguta Oprea and Andreea Stan at the Psychology Department, University of Pitesti, “Being a parent is a difficult task. Being the parent of a child with autism is a more difficult job and a challenge. Researchers found that mothers of children with autism had higher levels of parenting-related stress.” In their research, Oprea and Stan found that the majority of mothers do not see any positive aspect to their child’s diagnosis; mothers felt more judged and condemned by society; and most of them developed a sense of hope and trust in God.
Another mother, Debra, who has a ten-year-old daughter on the spectrum stated, “I felt cheated. When I was pregnant, I did everything that I was supposed to. I ate healthy food, I took my prenatal vitamins, I did my yoga, I did everything that I needed to so my baby will be healthy. When we started to see signs of developmental delays, we were shocked. We didn’t see it coming. My husband blamed me for it. He said that I must have done something wrong.”
Mia said that her fears are grounded in the fact that she feels helpless. “I just feel like I am in this alone, trying to figure it out on my own. Even with my husband and two older kids in the house, helping out, I feel like this is my fight. That I am the one who gave birth to this child and therefore I am the reason for his autism. Deep down I know that I shouldn’t put all the blame on myself but I still feel like I could have done something more, that I missed something.”
Maureen Bennie, writer and founder of the Autism Awareness Centre has noted that being the mother to a child with autism can be an isolating experience but it is important that mothers focus on their self-care. According to Bennie, “Taking time out to care for you is not selfish but necessary for self-preservation. Dealing with the issues around autism is both emotional and draining. Looking after your health and well-being is good for the entire family.”
Self-care can take many forms. Start by creating a strong support system – family, friends. It’s difficult to walk this autism path on your own so surround yourself with people who are understanding. No matter how small your circle, having even just one person who will listen, be there, will make a big difference. It might also help to shut off the voices of those who constantly criticise/blame you. If, as a mother you are already blaming yourself, you really don’t need to hear it from anyone else.
Try to make some time for yourself, even if it’s a few minutes a day. This is usually very difficult as so many children are at home and mothers are caring for them 24/7. However, it is important to find that few minutes where you can just sit and breathe and re-centre yourself so that you will find the energy to keep going. This might be a few minutes when you can just relax, take a nap, exercise, or sit down to eat a proper meal. You might consider taking longer breaks on those good days, when your child is not having meltdowns.
Self-care might mean pampering yourselves once in a while in some small way – a facial, a manicure/pedicure, a long bath, a few minutes to sit and watch a movie. The reality is, it is difficult for autism mothers to take long breaks because there is always something to do. For single mothers, self-care is more fantasy than reality. Thus, it is important to fit it in, within your regular schedule, every little bit of self-care will help in some way.
Most of the time when an autism mom is asked how are you, their response is “I’m good.” For them, it doesn’t make any sense speaking about their struggles because "unless you’re in it, you just won’t understand." In the words of Anne Frank, “Everyone has inside of him a piece of good news. The good news is that you don't know how great you can be! How much you can love! What you can accomplish! And what your potential is!” To Mia and Debra and all the other autism moms, don’t underestimate yourselves!

'It's only taken six years and a new hairline!': Aaron Ramsdale brutally rips Arsenal team-mate Rob Holding after he scored his first Premier League goal in crucial win at West Ham... after the defender underwent hair loss treatment last year
- Rob Holding headed home for Arsenal during important 2-1 win at West Ham
- It was the defender's first goal in Premier League football after six seasons
- But team-mate Aaron Ramsdale couldn't resist a little dig about his hair
- Holding underwent a hair transplant to restore his receding locks last year
- Defender has previously spoken about how hair loss affected his mental health
Rob Holding was mercilessly ripped by his Arsenal team-mate Aaron Ramsdale after scoring the first Premier League goal of his career in their crucial win over West Ham.
The Gunners defender, 26, underwent a transplant procedure to restore his receding hairline last year.
And his goalkeeper clearly believed his restored locks had something to do with the towering header that put Arsenal ahead just before half-time at the London Stadium.
Arsenal keeper Aaron Ramsdale (left) couldn't resist a little reference to Rob Holding's (right) hair transplant after the defender scored a crucial goal for the Gunners at West Ham
Holding headed home the first Premier League goal of his career to give Arsenal the lead
Though Jarrod Bowen equalised shortly afterwards, Gabriel scored a second-half winner to move Arsenal back above their north London rivals Tottenham into fourth.
Speaking on Sky Sports after the win, Holding said: 'I've scored a few Carabao Cup goals but it's nice to get my first Premier League goal and hopefully I can build on that and get some more.'
Ramsdale, standing next to him, couldn't resist and added: 'It's only taken six years and a new hairline!'
Holding did see the funny side as both players laughed out. 'Come on, mate,' the defender said.
Sky reporter Geoff Shreeves intervened to tell Ramsdale not to 'spoil his moment'.
Holding decided to take action to address his receding hairline with the treatment last year
Holding rose above the West Ham defence to head Arsenal into a 39th-minute lead
Holding has previously spoken out about how his hair loss affected his mental health.
Back in October, on World Mental Health Day, he wrote on social media: 'I struggled so much with my hair and self confidence. I have had so many messages about where I have had my procedure.
'Wimpole Clinic in London treated me so well and I'm so happy with the results.
'I have so many messages of other people affected by simple mental health issues and self confidence issues, I couldn't recommend this place enough, let's all be better.'
A delighted Ramsdale celebrates after Holding headed Arsenal in front at the London Stadium
It isn't the first time Ramsdale has teased Holding over his hair.
In March, during a promotional interview for FIFA 22, the England international goalkeeper looked at the centre-back's 77-rated card, which featured a picture from before his hair transplant.
Noting the difference between then and now, Ramsdale said: 'The hair transplant's done you wonders!'
Tottenham's 3-1 win over Leicester earlier on Sunday afternoon had restored them to fourth but Arsenal held their nerve thanks to two goals from their defenders to return to the Champions League places. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-10774243/Aaron-Ramsdale-brutally-rips-Arsenal-team-mate-Rob-Holding-hair-transplant.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-05-02T08:14:19Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-10774243/Aaron-Ramsdale-brutally-rips-Arsenal-team-mate-Rob-Holding-hair-transplant.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false | 3 |
DoorDash driver saves unconscious customer’s life during delivery
FAIRHAVEN, Mass. (Gray News) - A DoorDash delivery driver rushed into action when she found her customer unconscious and bleeding on the ground outside her house. Police say she saved the woman’s life.
The Fairhaven Police Department honored Sophia Furtado with a Life Saving Award for “her courageous actions that directly resulted in a life saved” on April 20, according to a department Facebook post.
While working for DoorDash in February, Furtado found a woman, later identified as Caryn Sullivan, on the ground and alone outside a house she was delivering to around 10 p.m., CNN reports. Sullivan was unconscious and bleeding from her head, police say.
Sullivan told CNN that while waiting for her order, she fell and hit her head on the way down.
“I just remember laying on my driveway, thinking, ‘This is pretty much over,’” she said. “I was laying there and saw a lot of white clouds.”
But when Furtado arrived, she sprang into action. She had previously spent time training as an emergency medical technician, according to CNN.
After calling 911, police say Furtado wrapped a blanket around Sullivan’s head and applied direct pressure to the bleeding wound. She kept Sullivan stable and updated dispatchers on her condition.
When first responders arrived, Furtado continued helping until Sullivan was taken to the hospital.
Police say Sullivan went into emergency surgery at 2 a.m. for severe brain bleeds. Her doctor says if there had been any delay in her care, she would have died.
“Any first responder can tell you, what Sophia did that night was not something anyone would just do,” wrote police on Facebook. “She saved a life.”
Sullivan spent weeks in the hospital after the incident and months recovering. She credits Furtado with saving her life.
“I am so thankful for her. She’s my guardian angel,” Sullivan told CNN. “Thank God, she was there. If she wasn’t there, I’d be dead.”
DoorDash awarded Furtado a $1,000 educational grant. She hopes to use the money toward more EMT school, CNN reports.

By Frosty Wooldridge
May 2, 2022
Cognitive dissonance equates to “intellectual denial of reality.”
And this from GOP congressional candidate Errol Webber: “Adolf Hitler had a Ministry of Truth…Joseph Stalin had a Ministry of Truth along with Mao Zedong. All of them were dictators. The Biden regime now has a Ministry of Truth.”
If you haven’t read George Orwell’s book 1984, please pick up a copy to give yourself an understanding of what’s happening in Washington DC as to the Department of Homeland Security chief Alejandro Mayorkas.
He’s a Cuban-American who features more Fidel Castro in his blood and mind than anyone can imagine. It’s obvious he never read the U.S. Constitution. He doesn’t understand that the foundation of our Republic stands with the 1st Amendment. That’s why it’s the first of all the amendments to our Constitution.
The fact remains that the 1st Amendment allows all of us to argue, debate, quarrel, dispute, question, and ultimately resolve our differences in a peaceful manner. It allows dimwits like AOC or Maxine Waters to splatter their voices onto the halls of Congress. It allows calmer voices like Tom Cotton or Rand Paul to give greater perspective. It gives highly intelligent Tulsi Gabbard a voice of reason for democrats. It furthers intelligent dialogue, new ideas and better choices by all of us as to how we conduct our country’s present and future.
On April 27, Biden regime DHS head, Alejandro Mayorkas, announced the formation of a new Disinformation Governance Board — to enforce suppression of truth-telling instead of countering what conflicts with it. During congressional testimony, Mayorkas claimed the following: “We have just established a mis- and disinformation governance board (DGB) in the Department of Homeland Security to more effectively combat this threat, not only to election security but to our homeland security.”
Shades of Orwell’s Ministry of Truth.
This rather stupid announcement by one of Biden’s henchmen comes on the heels of calling parents who stood up at school board meetings to give their opinions on CRT being taught to their children: terrorists.
Never mind that Mayorkas allowed 2,000,000 illegal alien migrants to jump our borders in 2021, and already in 2022, he’s allowed another 220,000 per month to invade us at our expense. Never mind that 105,000 Americans died of drug overdoses last year because Mayorkas-Biden invited all the drug cartels to dump their poisons all over America. Never mind that we have 35 documented Islamic Training Terrorists Centers within the United States from New York to California. Never mind that MS-1 3 gangs distribute fentanyl, heroin, ecstasy, methamphetamines and worse to our kids. Never mind that Biden brought 124,000 Afghan refugees to our country with NO VETTING of any of them for being Islamic terrorists. Never mind Biden gave those Afghanistan Taliban terrorists $93 billion in free war machinery.
Never mind Joe Biden gave $33 billions of our tax dollars to Ukraine to defend themselves, when he’s encouraging an invasion of our own borders in violation of Article IV, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution. Biden also violates US Code 8, Section 1324… 24/7 by allowing this invasion and it is being ignored by Mayorkas. Again, cognitive dissonance.
So, who are the “real” terrorists in our country? You cannot escape the fact that Joe Biden and Mayorkas break our laws daily. Never has a president or DHS chief been so trapped in “cognitive dissonance.” Are they brain dead, politically inept, incompetent…or all of the above?
If this invasion of our southern border continues under Biden’s watch, and you can bet it will continue, the very makeup, the stability, the very essence of America cannot and will not survive. We will continue to devolve and decline into massive pockets of third world misery. If you could simply walk through the 66,000 homeless in Los Angeles or the 35,000 homeless in San Francisco—you would discover our future.
What these men are creating: systemic, endemic and unsolvable poverty. We witness illiteracy, crime, drugs and human futility on a scale not seen in the USA, ever before.
Biden encourages third world poverty to establish itself within the United States. He invites systemic drug use among our young and our older addicts. He invites total loss of the rule of law. He manifests decay of cities like Detroit, Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Louis, New York City, Miami, Denver and more. He invites homelessness, hopelessness and futility for our own cities.
Did we the American people deserve this treatment? Did we deserve this kind of lawlessness by our own president and DHS chief? Do we deserve the final outcome of another 2 million or 10 million illegal migrants rampaging over our borders? Do we deserve the Islamic training camps? Do we deserve to protect Ukraine’s borders, but not our own? Do we deserve the loss of our sovereignty? What are those two guys doing to our country?
Oh, Mr. Biden and Mr. Mayorkas: you can stick your “Ministry of Truth” where the sun…well, you get my drift.
Is anyone in America thinking about these questions? Are we not galloping into America’s twilight years?

A SINGLE mum has taken to TikTok to bemoan the "annoying" things that people always say to her.
Bee, who gave birth to daughter August in March, has created a video series of all the rude things that she faces on a daily basis - and she's up to three so far.
"We didn’t invite you as thought you’d be uncomfortable being the only one with a baby," is the first that Bee frequently hears.
"This annoys me so much," one person wrote in the comments.
While another added: "Hate people like this."
"Had only a few friends before babies.. now my friends are other mums (they’re much better friends!)," a third wrote.

Bee's second "annoying thing" is when other mums tell her that they are "basically a single mum when my husband goes to work".
Once again, Bee's video sparked a slew of comments, with one writing: "Solo and single are 2 different things people!"
"It’s lone parenting… my husband was military so I parented alone but I wasn’t single," another added.
"I had his wage and his emotional support… VERY DIFFERENT!!"
Most read in Lifestyle
"Being a mum, with it being single parent, or married is hard regardless," a third weighed in.
"I’ve done both."
And the third rude thing Bee is regularly told is that she doesn't "look like a single mum".
"What are we supposed to look like? Is there a specific look?" she wondered in her video. | https://www.the-sun.com/lifestyle/5244208/single-mum-annoying-things-people-say-her/ | 2022-05-02T08:20:10Z | https://www.the-sun.com/lifestyle/5244208/single-mum-annoying-things-people-say-her/ | true | 3 |

MADRID (AP) — Spanish officials said Monday that the cellphones of the prime minister and the defense minister were infected last year with Pegasus spyware that is only available to government agencies in an operation that wasn't authorised by the government.
Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s mobile phone was breached twice in May 2021, and Defense Minister Margarita Robles’ device was targeted once the following month, Presidency Minister Félix Bolaños said in a hastily convened news conference.
He said the breaches resulted in a significant amount of data being obtained, and that reports detailing the breaches have been transferred to Spain’s National Court for further investigation.
“We have no doubt that this is an illicit, unauthorized intervention,” Bolaños said. “It comes from outside state organisms and it didn’t have judicial authorization.”
Spain’s government is under pressure to explain why the cellphones of dozens of people connected to the separatist movement in the northeastern Catalonia region were infected with Pegasus between 2017 and 2020, according to cybersecurity experts’ group Citizen Lab. | https://www.middletownpress.com/news/article/Spain-Spyware-attack-on-phones-of-PM-defense-17140927.php | 2022-05-02T08:29:17Z | https://www.middletownpress.com/news/article/Spain-Spyware-attack-on-phones-of-PM-defense-17140927.php | true | 11 |

Technology firms and real estate trusts were savaged on Monday as ASX traders took a cue from a week-ending Wall Street slump and braced for interest rate hikes on both sides of the Pacific.
The benchmark S&P/ASX 200 sank by as much as 1.8 per cent early on as traders dumped shares in Xero, Wisetech Global, Block Inc, Appen, EML Payments, and Altium, mirroring a dire sell-off for the growth-oriented Nasdaq on Friday.
The local index managed to trim its losses in the afternoon but still finished the day down 88 points, or 1.2 per cent, at 7347.0, with all sectors in the red.
The broader All Ordinaries lost 101.2 points, or 1.3 per cent, and settled at 7623.6, while the Aussie dollar had sagged to 70.47 US cents at the local close.
ASX investors were back-pedalling from the opening bell after US stocks plunged on Friday in anticipation of a 50 basis point rate rise from the US Fed in a couple of days.
Amazon stocks were particularly bruised after a disappointing set of financial results, while soft outlooks for Apple and Facebook prompted further tech sector selling beyond the usual blow dealt to growth stocks when monetary policy is tightened.
While no doubt also sweating over Covid lockdowns in China and the war in Ukraine, of more immediate concern to local traders was the Reserve Bank of Australia, which on Tuesday is widely tipped to accelerate its plans for monetary settings and make its first interest rate increase in 12 years.
Governor Philip Lowe is at almost unbackable odds to pull the trigger and hike rates by 15 basis points to 0.25 per cent in order to help the economy get a handle on runaway consumer prices.
Betashares ETFs senior economist David Bassanese is among the myriad of warket watchers who believe last week’s red-hot CPI print essentially made the RBA’s decision for it, although he said there remained a couple of unknown elements.
“(It) makes that call easier – though it remains to be seen whether the RBA will still hesitate, either due to election sensitivity or because it really does want to wait for confirmation of also accelerating wage inflation before acting,” Mr Bassanese said.
“To my mind, if the RBA does raise rates tomorrow, it should and likely will be only 15bps – it does not need to shock the economy with a 40bps move straight off the bat.”
Whether it was the weak Wall Street lead – or the prospect of rates being lifted from emergency settings – there was little joy to be had on the local sharemarket.
Tech stocks were predictably smashed, with Block Inc dropping 2.2 per cent to $142, Xero down 6.6 per cent to $90, Wisetech Global 7.3 per cent lower at $41.97, and Appen 4.5 per cent down at $6.36.
Altium dropped 4.4 per cent to $31.43, EML Payments was 3.8 per cent lower at $1.54, Tyro Payments shed 5.6 per cent to $1.185, and Megaport lost 5.5 per cent to $8.20.
Healthcare shares fared little better, with CSL down 1 per cent to $270.45, Sonic Healthcare dropping 1.9 per cent to $36.02, Cochlear 2.2 per cent lower at $226.57, and Resmed 1.4 per cent down at $28.73.
Real estate trusts were also badly hurt ahead of the looming RBA meeting.
Storage and warehousing firm Goodman Group dropped 7.2 per cent to $22.26 and National Storage was 2.3 per cent lower at $2.55, while office landlords Dexus, GPT, and Charter Hall were also battered.
There was a 2.7 per cent decline for mall owner Scentre Group to $2.91, a 1.7 per cent loss for Mirvac to $2.38, a 2.1 per cent decline for Vicinity Centres to $1.835, and a 1.4 per cent fall for Stockland to $4.10.
Soft activity data in China released over the weekend due to Covid lockdowns knocked most mining stocks lower, although Rio Tinto managed a 0.7 per cent gain to $113.59.
Travel stocks also proved one of the rare bright spots in the market after Qantas announced it was set to return to profitability while also issuing a further message of confidence with an order for $7bn worth of new domestic and international aircraft.
Shares in the national carrier ended 2.9 per cent higher at $5.76 and dragged travel broker Flight Centre 1.8 per cent higher to $22.99, Helloworld 2.6 per cent higher to $2.73, and Webjet up 1.2 per cent to $6.10. | https://www.perthnow.com.au/news/markets-wrap-asx-tech-stocks-smashed-as-traders-brace-for-rba-interest-rate-hike-c-6652715 | 2022-05-02T08:37:56Z | https://www.perthnow.com.au/news/markets-wrap-asx-tech-stocks-smashed-as-traders-brace-for-rba-interest-rate-hike-c-6652715 | true | 3 |
The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights warns that Mali's new media restrictions reflect a growing intolerance toward freedom of the press in the region.
U.N. human rights officials are expressing deep dismay at Mali's decision Wednesday to permanently suspend Radio France International and France 24 from operating there. They are urging Mali's military authorities to reverse the ban and allow independent media to work freely in the country.
The government temporarily suspended the two international broadcasters on March 16, accusing them of airing false allegations of human rights violations by the Malian army and Russian mercenaries.
U.N. human rights spokeswoman Ravina Shamdasani said the current climate of fear in Mali is having a chilling effect on journalists and bloggers.
"There is a lot of self-censorship. There is a lot of pressure," she said. "There have been a number of journalists--local, regional, international, who have come under pressure. Licenses revoked.... Journalists are trying to avoid reporting on sensitive topics, so that they do not fall foul of the authorities."
Shamdasani said U.N. human rights monitors continue to document allegations of serious violations of international human rights law and international humanitarian law in many parts of Mali. If anything, she said the prevailing situation in the country demands more, not less, scrutiny.
However, she said Mali is not the only country where attacks on freedom of expression and opinion are occurring with increasing frequency and intensity.
"We are seeing a worrying trend in some of the other countries in West Africa as well," she said. "And this applies not only to freedom of expression and then the work of journalists, but also civic space and civil society as a whole. There appears to be a growing intolerance for dissent, unfortunately."
Shamdasani said journalists all over the world are under threat, and journalists increasingly are being discredited for their reporting, accused of bias or of spreading misinformation. She said governments have many tools they can use to intimidate journalists and prevent the free flow of information.
She said governments are increasingly using surveillance to monitor the work of journalists, adding that this makes it more difficult for them to protect their sources, to gather information, report on abuse, and bring perpetrators of crimes to account. | https://allafrica.com/stories/202205020125.html | 2022-05-02T08:41:05Z | https://allafrica.com/stories/202205020125.html | true | 2 |

Forget the hand-wringing over preferences in under-threat Liberal seats including Tim Wilson’s Goldstein and Josh Frydenberg’s Kooyong. Higgins MP and potential future frontbencher Katie Allen has been forced to execute a monumental backflip after issuing how-to-vote cards preferencing a United Australia Party candidate who has since gone bad. Very bad.
After last week’s ballot draw, Allen’s office reported UAP candidate Ingram Spencer to the federal police for allegedly acting aggressively towards people and “scaring everyone”. Days later, he was arrested for allegedly using a carriage service to harass someone and placed behind bars ahead of a first court hearing later this week.
So imagine the surprise among Higgins’ Liberal members and broader constituents when tens of thousands of them received Liberal how-to-vote cards instructing them to preference Spencer, a QAnon-following Vladimir Putin admirer, ahead of Labor and the Greens.
Allen, a paediatric allergies specialist, called Labor’s candidate for Higgins, infectious diseases doctor Michelle Ananda-Rajah, a “national disgrace” for questioning the efficacy of AstraZeneca in February 2021. No doubt she would also have strong opinions on Spencer’s social media postings.
Spencer, who is a former PwC director and was a Liberal Party member until late last year, has labelled the Pfizer vaccine “extremely unsafe” and claimed it killed 3 per cent of those who received it. The hopeful for Clive Palmer’s UAP shared a social media post appearing to celebrate Shane Warne’s death because Warne supported anti-vaxxer Novak Djokovic’s deportation. Spencer has also shared material questioning whether the Port Arthur massacre happened and propagated Russian military propaganda in the war in Ukraine.
All normal posts from an extremely normal fellow.
Allen’s office says the voting cards were already at the printers by the time Spencer allegedly harassed people. Future how-to-vote cards will have the candidate in last place.
But with tens of thousands of the cards already in letter boxes, hasn’t that horse already bolted?
Higgins is Labor’s second target seat after Chisholm, and the party’s research shows Prime Minister Scott Morrison is more unpopular in Higgins than any other seat in Australia. Allen last month confessed her constituents “are not so happy with Scott”.

BWW Review: I DON'T EVEN MISS YOU is a Thought-Provoking Sci-Fi Drama
The show plays May 1st, 3rd, and 4th.
Basil is thoroughly, utterly alone. Streets and houses stand empty, vehicles sit unoccupied, and T.V. and radio networks are non-existent. For the first 3 months, Basil revels in exploring strangers' houses, gallivanting solo through malls, and playing dress-up in ritzy clothing stores. However, their solitude's novelty eventually crumbles and is replaced with crippling loneliness. Desperate for any semblance of human companionship, Basil harnesses their computer programming skills to create Orchid, an AI friend.
Presented by eclectic Edmonton theatre company Tiny Bear Jaws, I Don't Even Miss You is a compelling sci-fi drama written by and starring Elena Belyea. Collaboratively brought to life by RISER Edmonton and RISER Toronto with support from Toronto's Why Not Theatre. Haunting, heartfelt, and laugh-out-loud funny, I Don't Even Miss You is directed by Emma Tibaldo and takes centre stage at CO*LAB, an intimate black box performance space.
From the moment we first meet non-binary computer programmer, Basil (Belyea), it is impossible to not be immersed in their plight for connection and finding beauty in their eerily silent world. Through quirky song and dance numbers to heart-rending soliloquies to humorous banter with Orchid (voiced by Vanessa Sabourin), Basil's emotional journey is utterly compelling. They relay their life story through over 2 dozen short chapters, reminiscing about their childhood, cringing over awkward teenage memories, and recalling their journey through university. Belyea's script brims with poetic musings, self-deprecating humour, and tearful revelations and explores the prevalent themes of gender identity and social isolation without being heavy-handed.
Complementing Basil's story are whimsical technical elements including Tori Morrison's image projections on a backdrop resembling an open book and emotive lighting by Daniela Masellis. The minimal set features objects including a ukulele, coat rack, laptop trolley, and articles of clothing folded neatly on the floor. Despite some sporadic hiccups, the captions displayed above the stage add a unique and inclusive touch. Combined with Belyea's moving script and poignant performance, I Don't Even Miss You is a moving piece of theatre that lingers with you long after its unconventional conclusion.
I Don't Even Miss You plays at Edmonton's CO*LAB performing arts space on May 1, 3, and 4. Masks are required for all audience members and proof of Covid-19 vaccination is required for the May 1 matinee and the evening performance on May 3. Sarah Emslie will perform the role of Basil on the May 1 and 3 matinees.

Judy Garland dress from ‘Wizard of Oz’ going on auction block in Los Angeles
It was lost for decades. Then during the pandemic, a retired drama professor at Catholic University of America discovered the iconic blue-and-white dress while going through some boxes.

The auction house said its one of five versions of the dress known to exist, but it’s one of only two that are attached to the white blouse.
Judy Garland wore this version of the dress during the scene at the Wicked Witch’s castle.
It turns out the memorabilia was donated to the school by actress Mercedes McCambridge in 1973.

Google: A Truly Undervalued Large Cap
Summary
- Google is among the large-cap tech stocks that have been suffering post earnings.
- The company announced $70 billion in buybacks, something it can comfortably afford, which will support share prices in a difficult time.
- The company is continuing to invest economically in growth versus its peers.
- Overall, the company has a unique asset base distributed across numerous internet properties that we expect will support long-term profits.
- I do much more than just articles at The Energy Forum: Members get access to model portfolios, regular updates, a chat room, and more. Learn More »
Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) was among the technology conglomerates to struggle through a difficult earnings season. The company's share price is now almost 30% below its 52-week highs. However, despite this weakness, as we'll see throughout this article, the company is an undervalued large cap with significant earnings potential.
Alphabet Quarterly Results
Alphabet had strong quarterly earnings, highlighting the strength of its financial position.
Alphabet Quarterly Results - Alphabet Investor Presentation
Alphabet earned almost $70 billion in revenue for the quarter, showing its financial strength. The company's revenue increased by 23% YoY with a 26% increase in constant currency revenue. The company managed to keep its operating margin constant with strong operating income increases from almost $16.5 billion to just under $20.1 billion.
The company has managed to steadily decrease its outstanding shares, and despite fluctuations in other income due to investments, continues to generate strong net income. The company can use that net income for a variety of shareholder returns.
Alphabet Segment Breakdown - Alphabet Investor Presentation
Looking at a breakdown of Alphabet's results, we can see numerous factors that to us show the strength of the company's business.
First, the company has seen consistent revenue growth among its portfolio of properties. Cloud, one of its largest new business segments, saw almost 50% growth, however, the company has seen Google Search, YouTube, and other profits grow significantly as well. It's worth noting that, despite the revenue, the company's other bets took an annualized loss of $5 billion.
However, we actually see this as incredibly promising. Plenty of large tech companies have "Other Bets" categories. Meta's (FB) Reality Labs loses >$12 billion annualized. Google has a much more diverse portfolio of other bets and it loses much less from the category, showing its ability to invest in its future while managing its finances.
More so, while revenue and income has been growing at 20% YoY, Google Cloud and Other Bets losses have remained fairly constant, again another sign of the company's financial strength. This makes us optimistic about the company's future earnings growth potential.
Alphabet Strong Financial Position
Alphabet has been building up a strong financial position on the back of its earnings.
Alphabet has a roughly $170 billion cash pile and minimal debt. The company's $1.5 trillion market capitalization means roughly 10% of its market cap is held in a net cash position. That means the company can start substantial shareholder rewards, starting with drawing down its net cash position, while also using its substantial cash flow.
That financial position also gives the company the ability to opportunistically look at acquisitions, growing projects, capital intensive projects, or weather a downturn without threatening the company.
Alphabet Shareholder Rewards
Alphabet is committed to strong shareholder rewards and we expect that the downturn will represent a unique opportunity for the company to generate long-term shareholder rewards.
The company has been rapidly ramping up share repurchases. The company authorized $25 billion in 2019 and $50 billion last year. With its most recent earnings report, the company authorized $70 billion, enough to repurchase roughly 5% of its shares outstanding. The company could cover that with its cash position or earnings over the next year.
The company has become the second largest company repurchasing shares, behind Apple (AAPL) (although with a market cap just over half that of Apple). That makes it one of the largest re-purchasers of shares by % of market cap. The company's outstanding shares have decreased noticeably over the last few years and we expect that trend to continue.
Overall, we see this as an example of large technology companies following the "Apple model" of share repurchases combined with earnings growth to generate continued market beating shareholder returns.
Our View
Despite the recent weakness in tech stocks, we still see many of them as substantially overvalued. However, Alphabet is the exception to that rule in our view. The company has a reasonable P/E ratio in the low 20s, backed up by double-digit revenue growth and even faster earnings growth for the company.
The company's largest sources of losses, its "Other Bets" and "Google Clouds" losses, have seen their loss rates remain roughly constant as the rest of the company's business has grown. We expect this to result in the company's earnings growing faster than revenue, generating strong shareholder rewards and making the company a valuable investment.
Thesis Risk
The largest risk to our thesis is the risks facing any tech company. Competition. Google continues to dominate mail and search. However, YouTube has struggled with competition from TikTok and other video formats. There's always the chance of increased competition for the company's core businesses which can hurt future earnings potential.
Conclusion
Alphabet is a collection, at this point of several hundred companies and startups. The company watched its revenue increase by double-digits YoY, highlighting its financial strength, and the company's operating income has the ability to continue increasing. The company announced a massive $70 billion buyback program.
The company can repurchase 5% of its outstanding shares with this repurchase program and can comfortably afford to keep it going for numerous years. The company's other bets and Google Cloud losses are going down indicating that profits could increase faster than revenue growth. This strength makes the company a valuable investment.

The National Pension Commission, PenCom, has announced that 20 Pension Fund Administrators, PFAs, have met its N5 billion minimum recapitalisation deadline from N1billion.
The Commission has also announced the approval of the acquisition of AIICO Pension Managers Limited by FCMB Pensions Limited.
It equally approved the merger between Tangerine Pensions Limited and APT Pension Funds Managers Limited and subsequent change of name of the merged entity to Tangerine APT Pensions Limited.
Similarly, PenCom also approved Norrenberger’s acquisition of IEI-Anchor Pension Managers Limited, after its acquisition of the majority shareholder, IEI Plc.
The Commission in a statement titled: PFAs Comply with N5 billion Minimum Regulatory Capital Requirement,” said: “The National Pension Commission, PenCom is pleased to inform all stakeholders and the general public that as at 27 April 2022, all Pension Fund Administrators, PFAs have complied with the Commission’s directive for the increase of the Minimum Regulatory Capital, Shareholders’ Fund from N1 billion to N5 billion.
“Recall that the Commission had approved the recapitalisation exercise for the PFAs with a 12-month transition period from 27 April 2021 to 27 April 2022.
“The exercise became expedient as the value of pension fund assets under management and custody had grown exponentially by 244 per cent, from N3 trillion in 2012 (when the previous recapitalisation was done) to N12.29 trillion (as at December 31, 2020).
“The sustained growth in assets implies greater fiduciary responsibilities that require more operational capacity by the PFAs.
“The urgent need to ramp up PFAs capacity to manage the increasing number of registered contributors and value of pension fund assets under management led to the recapitalisation exercise.
“It is worthwhile to state that 10 PFAs had met the new regulatory capital requirement of N5 billion as at 31 December 2021, while the others intensified efforts to meet the deadline of 27 April 2022. This resulted in some mergers and acquisitions, which led to the reduction of the number of PFAs from 22 to 20.
“The Commission approved the acquisition of AIICO Pension Managers Limited by FCMB Pensions Limited; and the merger between Tangerine Pensions Limited and APT Pension Funds Managers Limited and subsequent change of name of the merged entity to Tangerine APT Pensions Limited. In addition, the Commission also approved Norrenberger’s acquisition of IEI-Anchor Pension Managers Limited, after its acquisition of the majority shareholder, IEI Plc.
“With the conclusion of the recapitalisation exercise, stakeholders, particularly RSA holders, should expect increased effectiveness and efficiency as well as improved service delivery from PFAs.” | https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/05/20-pfas-meet-n5bn-pencom-recapitalisation-deadline/ | 2022-05-02T08:50:07Z | https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/05/20-pfas-meet-n5bn-pencom-recapitalisation-deadline/ | true | 6 |

MADRID (AP) — Spanish officials said Monday that the cellphones of the prime minister and the defense minister were infected last year with Pegasus spyware that is only available to government agencies in an unauthorized operation.
Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez’s mobile phone was breached twice in May 2021, and Defense Minister Margarita Robles’ device was targeted once the following month, Presidency Minister Félix Bolaños said Monday in a hastily convened news conference.
He said the breaches resulted in a significant amount of data being obtained, and that reports detailing the hacking have been transferred to Spain’s National Court for further investigation.
“We have no doubt that this is an illicit, unauthorized intervention,” Bolaños said. “It comes from outside state organisms and it didn’t have judicial authorization.”
Spain’s Socialist-led government is under pressure to explain why the cellphones of dozens of people connected to the separatist movement in the northeastern Catalonia region were infected with Pegasus between 2017 and 2020, according to Citizen Lab, a cybersecurity group of experts affiliated with the University of Toronto.
The revelations involve at least 65 people, including elected officials, lawyers and activists, targeted with the software of two Israeli companies, Candiru and NSO Group, the developer of Pegasus.
The spyware silently infiltrates phones or other devices to harvest data and potentially spy on their owners.
The regional Catalan government has accused Spain’s National Intelligence Center, or CNI, of spying on separatists, and declared that relations with national authorities were “on hold” until full explanations are offered and those responsible are punished.
The conservative Popular Party, or PP, was in office in 2017, when Catalan separatists declared independence following an unauthorized referendum, although no further action was taken to execute the declaration. PP remained in power until mid-2018, when they were ousted by Sánchez in a parliamentary vote.
ERC, the main political party in Catalonia and a crucial ally of the government has called for the resignation of Robles, the defense minister. But the spying scandal has left them exposed to the pressure of more radical separatists, who are calling on ending the support for Sánchez's left-to-center coalition in the national parliament.
The central government has attempted to temper their concerns with pledges of full transparency, announcements of plans for an internal probe by the country’s intelligence agency, and a separate investigation by Spain's ombudsman.
A special parliamentary commission on state secrets has also been established and the head of CNI is expected to be questioned by lawmakers later this week, although discussions around state security issues are not meant to be publicized. | https://www.springfieldnewssun.com/nation-world/spain-2021-spyware-attack-targeted-prime-ministers-phone/Q33DBNDDV5A4JO7DSMXH5OZ2TE/ | 2022-05-02T08:55:29Z | https://www.springfieldnewssun.com/nation-world/spain-2021-spyware-attack-targeted-prime-ministers-phone/Q33DBNDDV5A4JO7DSMXH5OZ2TE/ | false | 13 |
The Oklahoma County Sheriff's Office is investigating a deadly collision between a car and motorcycle in southwest OKC.
Cody Lee Beal, 27, died on the scene of the crash, according to the Oklahoma County Sheriff's Office.
The collision happened just after 9 a.m. near West Reno Avenue and North Council Road.
Authorities said Beal was riding on a motorcycle was performing a wheelie while also speeding past a deputy at a high speed.
The deputy then attempted to pull Beal over.

PARIS, May 2 (Reuters) - French care homes company Orpea ORP.PA, which has faced investigations into how it runs its centres and treats its elderly residents, named Laurent Guillot at its new chief executive on Monday.
In March, the French government said it planned to file a criminal complaint against Orpea over allegations of the mistreatment of elderly patients.
Orpea has said there is no system of widespread abuse at its care homes, and added on Monday that it had started to improve its business practices, such as establishing a listening unit for families and a mediation unit, as well as strengthening the whistleblowing system for employees.

Evacuation from Mariupol's Azovstal underway: Ukrainian Prez
The Ukrainian authorities are working with the United Nations to evacuate other civilians from the plant, Zelensky said
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Sunday that an evacuation is underway inside the Azovstal plant in the besieged city of Mariupol.
"The first group of about 100 people is already heading to the controlled area," Zelensky tweeted.
He said that the evacuees are set to arrive in southern Ukraine's city of Zaporizhzhia on Monday, Xinhua news agency reported.
Petro Andryushchenko, an advisor to the mayor of Mariupol said earlier on Telegram that the evacuation began at 4 p.m. local time.
The Ukrainian authorities are working with the United Nations to evacuate other civilians from the plant, Zelensky said.
The evacuation from Mariupol was the centerpiece of talks between Zelensky and UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Thursday.

Blackburn Rovers backroom team member Liam Scott set for Newcastle United switch
Blackburn Rovers’ head of athletic performance Liam Scott is set to link up with Premier League side Newcastle United, it has emerged.
Blackburn Rovers could be set for a summer of change with uncertainty surrounding Tony Mowbray’s future and a host of key players like Darragh Lenihan, Joe Rothwell and Ryan Nyambe all coming towards the end of their contracts at Ewood Park.
Now, it has emerged from The Athletic’s Chris Waugh that one of the Championship club’s backroom team members is heading for pastures new.
Head of athletic performance Mason is set to leave Blackburn Rovers and join Premier League side Newcastle United as former Bournemouth and Burnley boss Eddie Howe further bolsters his backroom team at St. James’ Park.
A summer of change?
With Mowbray potentially heading for the exit as his deal nears expiry and a host of players out of contract, it could end up being a busy summer for Blackburn Rovers before embarking on the 2022/23 campaign.
If a new manager does come in, they will have the opportunity to shape their backroom team and the squad to their liking.
However, whoever is in charge, they will surely want star men like Lenihan and Rothwell to stay if possible. Striker Ben Brereton Diaz continues to attract interest from elsewhere as well, although there is a 12-month extension option in his current deal that removes the risk of Rovers losing him for nothing.
Before then though, Blackburn Rovers will be hoping to round off their 2021/22 season with a win over Blackburn Rovers on Saturday. | https://the72.co.uk/271976/blackburn-rovers-backroom-team-member-liam-scott-set-for-newcastle-united-switch/ | 2022-05-02T09:09:39Z | https://the72.co.uk/271976/blackburn-rovers-backroom-team-member-liam-scott-set-for-newcastle-united-switch/ | true | 1 |
Veteran Indian batter Cheteshwar Pujara has been in fine form in the ongoing County Championship as he scored his second double century for Sussex on Day 3, during their match against Durham. During his terrific knock of 203 off 334 balls, Pujara also stitched a crucial partnership of 154 off 275 balls along with Pakistan batter Mohammad Rizwan. Ahead of the third day’s play, Sussex posted a video of Pujara having a conversation with Rizwan during a training session.

The conversation was not audible but fans on Twitter did not take too long to interpret what they were talking about.

With this double century, Pujara became the second Indian batter after Mohammad Azharuddin to register two double hundreds in the English County Championship. This was also Pujara’s 15th double hundred in first-class cricket. In the ongoing County Championship, Pujara has been in good form. Earlier, in his debut match for Sussex, the Gujarat-born batter had scored another double hundred as well. Later, against Worcestershire, he scored a century too.
Coming back to the match, batting first, Durham scored 223 runs in the first innings. Left-handed batter Liam Trevaskis (88 off 116 balls) turned out to be the highest scorer of Durham in first innings. For Sussex, Aaron Beard and Tom Clark picked up three wickets each.
In reply, Pujara’s brilliant knock of 203 runs helped Sussex in putting up a mammoth total of 538 runs. During his splendid knock, Pujara scored 24 boundaries. His innings came to an end when he was stumped off the final ball of the 152nd over of the innings. Sussex wicketkeeper-batter Rizwan also contributed significantly by scoring 79 runs off 145 deliveries.
For Durham, Trevaskis once again exhibited his superb skills as he scalped five wickets in the innings.
Durham kicked off their batting in second innings on a promising note after their openers- Alex Lees (105 runs off 262 balls) and Sean Dickson (186 off 290 balls)- registered a solid partnership of 313 runs. Eventually, Durham declared their innings after scoring 364/3 as the match resulted in a draw.

Col. John M. Gracie was known throughout Arkansas and the world in the late 1800s and early 1900s for being the largest cotton plantation owner in the state. Intent on finding his own means of solving the plantation labor crisis brought about by the mass exodus of Black slaves from plantations throughout the South after the Emancipation Proclamation, Gracie visited Italy.
With his considerable wealth, he decided to import more than 30 Italian families to his New Gascony plantation west of Pine Bluff.
He believed that the Black laborers who were taking advantage of their new freedoms to move to bigger cities and do anything but laborious plantation work were lazy and irresponsible. He also believed that the Italian immigrants would be the perfect group of people to take their place and continue to make his vast plantation as prosperous as it had always been.
In a 1905 Arkansas Democrat newspaper article, Gracie even said, he "expected the labor problem (to be) solved before another season." Initially, things went well as Gracie admired the Italians' close-knit family groups and called them industrious people with "but few of the undesirable traits of other labor for the cotton fields."
As more and more Italian families agreed to cross the ocean to work on Gracie's farm, the Italian Department of Immigration sent inspectors to ensure that their citizens were being treated well. By all reports, Gracie was an excellent boss.
Over the next few years, he imported more Italian families. By 1909, he had over 400 Italian families on three of his 17 Arkansas plantations. That same year though, two Italian families left Gracie's plantation after they became dissatisfied with their housing arrangements and filed peonage charges against him. (Peonage was outlawed by Congress in 1967 as a form of debt slavery.)
John Clifton Elder, an attorney from the Congressional Immigration Commission was even sent from Washington, D.C., to investigate the claims of Gracie's former employees. Gracie staunchly contested the allegations against him, and Elder's brief investigation cleared him of any wrongdoing.
The very next year, Gracie told the Pine Bluff Daily Graphic that the Italian laborers were ingrates and of unsettled disposition and that he had hired Black laborers on his plantations. By this time, many Italian families were choosing to actively leave Gracie's plantations for lower-paying jobs elsewhere at considerable costs to themselves after just one or two years of working on his plantation.
Gracie thought that they were money-hungry and cared nothing for their contracts or their employers. He also felt put upon because he had helped many of the Italian laborers secure their passage to America. He also never completely did away with Italian laborers. Many Italian families chose to continue working on his plantations even into the start of World War I when many were called home to defend their country.
In 1997, Danelmo "Dan" Fratesi, then a 91-year-old man and one of the few surviving Italian immigrants in Pine Bluff, was interviewed by The Odessa American. Fratesi was just three months old when his family immigrated to New Gascony to work on Gracie's plantation in 1906.
The more than 30 immigrant families came with dreams of a promised land where they could work toward land ownership. Instead, they were actually inducted into a sharecropping system that made it hard for them to make any money at all. The marshy land that made for good cotton yields also carried disease and quick death in the form of malaria.
Within a month of their arrival, Fratesi's older brother and sister died of malaria. Fratesi also attests that the houses on Gracie's plantation were "so run-down that you could put your foot through the floor." Fratesi's wife Amalite immigrated to America just as he did and suffered under much the same conditions on the plantation.
In 1912, many of the Italian immigrants, including Fratesi's parents, left Gracie's plantation and moved to a quiet stretch of dirt road east of Pine Bluff. Known for being good workers and upstanding citizens, they secured work on nearby farms.
At the end of the World War in 1918, with the rise of cotton prices, the Fratesi family was able to purchase 120 acres of land near the Toney Field Airport. The Fratesis became a respected farming family in Arkansas and were honored four times for their farming expertise in Jefferson and Lincoln counties from 1963 to 1994. So, though much stood in their way, the Fratesis were among the Italian immigrant families that were able to achieve their dream of land ownership against all odds.

Ukraine War: Evacuation of civilians from Azovstal steel plant begins
A Ukrainian defender of the steel plant urged groups like the UN and the Red Cross to ensure the safety of those being evacuated
Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine: Ukrainian civilians holed up inside a steel plant in Mariupol under siege by Russian forces nearly two months began evacuating over the weekend and people sheltering elsewhere in the city were to leave Monday, local officials said.
Video posted online on 1 May, 2022, by Ukrainian forces showed elderly women and mothers with small children climbing over a steep pile of rubble from the sprawling Azovstal steel plant and eventually boarding a bus.
More than 100 civilians were expected to arrive in the Ukrainian-controlled city of Zaporizhzhia on Monday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on 1 May.
"Today, for the first time in all the days of the war, this vitally needed (humanitarian) corridor has started working," Zelenskyy said in a pre-recorded address published on his Telegram messaging channel.
There were worries about the evacuees' safety. People fleeing Russian-occupied areas in the past have said their vehicles were fired on, and Ukrainian officials have repeatedly accused Russian forces of shelling agreed-upon evacuation routes.
A Ukrainian defender of the steel plant urged groups like the UN and the Red Cross to ensure the safety of those being evacuated. Sviatoslav Palamar, deputy commander of the Azov Regiment, told The Associated Press in an interview that there should be guarantees from "a third party — politicians, world leaders — who will cooperate to negotiate with Russians to extract us from here."
Another of the plant's defenders said Russian forces resumed shelling the plant on 1 May, as soon as the civilians were evacuated.
Denys Shlega, commander of the 12th Operational Brigade of Ukraine's National Guard, said in a televised interview Sunday night that several hundred civilians are still trapped alongside nearly 500 wounded soldiers and "numerous" dead bodies.
"Several dozen small children are still in the bunkers underneath the plant," Shlega said.
As many as 100,000 people may still be in Mariupol, including an estimated 2,000 Ukrainian fighters beneath the sprawling, Soviet-era steel plant — the only part of the city not occupied by the Russians.
Mariupol, a port city on the Sea of Azov, has seen some of the worst suffering. A Russian airstrike hit a maternity hospital in early weeks of the war, and hundreds of people were reported killed when a theater was bombed.
The city is a key target because of its strategic location near the Crimea Peninsula, which Russia seized from Ukraine in 2014.
Palamar, the Ukrainian commander, told the AP on Sunday that reaching some of the wounded in the steel plant is difficult.
"There's rubble. We have no special equipment. It's hard for soldiers to pick up slabs weighing tons only with their arms," he said. "We hear voices of people who are still alive" inside shattered buildings.
UN humanitarian spokesman Saviano Abreu said civilians arriving in Zaporizhzhia, about 140 miles (230 kilometers) northwest of Mariupol, would get immediate support, including psychological services. A Doctors Without Borders team was waiting for the UN convoy at a reception center for displaced people in the city.
Palamar called for the evacuation of wounded Ukrainian fighters as well as civilians.
"We don't know why they are not taken away, and their evacuation to the territory controlled by Ukraine is not being discussed," he said in a video posted 30 April, on the regiment's Telegram channel.
Along with his Azov regiment, Palamar said, marines, police officers, border guards, coast guard and are defending the plant. The bodies of dead Ukrainian fighters remain inside the plant, he said, "because we believe we will be able to move them to Ukrainian government-controlled territory. We have to do everything to bury heroes with honors."
US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other US lawmakers visited Zelenskyy on 30 April, 2022, to show American support.
In his nightly address onn 1 May, Zelenskyy accused Moscow of waging "a war of extermination," saying Russian shelling had hit food, grain and fertilizer warehouses, and residential neighborhoods in the Kharkiv, Donbas and other regions.
More than 350,000 people have been evacuated from combat zones thanks to humanitarian corridors pre-agreed with Moscow, he said, adding the "organization of humanitarian corridors is one of the elements of the negotiation process which is ongoing."
In Zaporizhzhia, residents ignored air raid sirens to visit cemeteries on 1 May, the Orthodox Christian day of the dead.
"If our dead could rise and see this, they would say, 'It's not possible, they're worse than the Germans,'" Hennadiy Bondarenko, 61, said while marking the day with his family at a picnic table among the graves. "All our dead would join the fighting, including the Cossacks."
Russian forces embarked on a major military operation to seize parts of southern and eastern Ukraine after failing to capture the capital, Kyiv. Ukrainian forces are fighting their offensive village-by-village while civilians flee airstrikes and artillery shelling.
Ukrainian intelligence officials accused Russian forces of seizing medical facilities to treat wounded Russian soldiers in several occupied towns, and of destroying medical infrastructure.
A full picture of battle unfolding in eastern Ukraine is hard to capture. The fighting makes it dangerous for reporters to move around, and both sides have introduced tight restrictions on reporting from the combat zone.
But Western military analysts have suggested Russia's offensive is progressing more slowly than planned. So far, Russian troops and Russian-backed separatists appear to have made only minor gains since the eastern offensive began last month.
The British Defense Ministry said in a daily briefing Monday that it believes more than a quarter of all troops Russia has deployed in Ukraine are "combat ineffective." That phrase refers to a military's ability to wage war, which is affected by losing soldiers to wounds and death and having equipment damaged or destroyed.
The British military believes Russia committed over 120 so-called "battalion tactical groups" into the war since February, which represents 65 per cent of all of Moscow's combat strength.
Some of Russia's most elite forces "have suffered the highest levels of attrition," the ministry said in its briefing on Twitter. "It will probably take years for Russia to reconstitute these forces."
Hundreds of millions of dollars in military assistance has flowed into Ukraine during the war, but Russia's vast armories mean Ukraine still needs massive support. With plenty of firepower still in reserve, Russia's offensive could intensify. Overall, the Russian army has an estimated 900,000 active-duty personnel, and a much larger air force and navy.
Meanwhile, recent weeks have seen a number of fires and explosions in Russian regions near the border. On Sunday, an explosive device damaged a railway bridge in the Kursk region, which borders Ukraine, and a criminal investigation has been started, the region's government reported.

Farming and food safety
Sir, — Last week you published letters from Diana Barnett and Lottie Rundall both expressing concerns about modern farming and the use of chemical pesticides in particular.
I agree with a lot of what they say but there are some specific points that I feel need clarification.
Diana says: “If we douse our gardens in Roundup we won’t have any honeybees, bumblebees and other useful insects.”
She is right to be concerned about insect biodiversity but Roundup is a herbicide which has no direct effect on insects at the concentration at which it should be used.
The effects of herbicides on insects are primarily about the removal of plants which may be a food source or a habitat for insects.
That is a human decision and the impact on insects is the same regardless of the means of removal.
Blaming herbicide use for insect declines is therefore rather missing the point.
Diana also reflects the outrage many have expressed about the decision to allow the use of neonicotinoid insecticides to save the UK sugar beet crop this year.
People are right to be concerned about the welfare of pollinating insects but one point in this debate which is almost always overlooked is that pollinators are irrelevant to sugar beet cultivation since the crop is harvested before it flowers.
Sugar beet fields are completely unattractive to bees and hence any risk of exposure is extremely small.
Lottie says: “There is evidence on both sides of the glyphosate argument” around the potential of that herbicide to cause cancer.
That is true but it is categorically untrue to suggest that the volume and quality of evidence on both sides is somehow even and hence it is valid to arbitrarily choose which bits of evidence you believe and which you don’t believe.
Dozens of scientific reviews have been performed by independent regulatory agencies and scientific institutions right around the world, evaluating all the available evidence, and they unanimously agree that glyphosate is “unlikely” to cause cancer.
The rather compromised report by the International Agency for Research on Cancer is the only outlier.
I agree that the use of the word “unlikely” may not sound so reassuring in a world where society constantly seeks absolute assurances of safety, but such questions can only be tackled through rigorous statistical analysis and hence absolute assurances are never possible.
Both correspondents express concern about the damage our farming systems are doing to our environment. I am in complete agreement.
Working out how to adequately feed 10 billion people in the most environmentally sustainable way possible over the next 30 years is the greatest challenge humanity faces.
Rejecting modern technologies and retreating back to agronomic systems that struggled to feed two billion people 100 years ago is surely not a viable solution. — Yours faithfully,
David Hughes

World with no chocolate?
Sir, — I wholeheartedly agree with Diana Barnett, humans are a part of nature and not apart from nature, as she elegantly puts it.
Our belief in our supremacy, and our cavalier destruction of other species, is foolhardy. We know this yet we persist. We seem only to learn lessons when we suffer personally as a result of our mistakes.
Let’s hope that ultimately our instinct for self-preservation may make us see sense.
A tiny species of midge is the sole pollinator of the cocoa plant: without this little creature, we would live in a world without chocolate.
How easily could such an apparently insignificant bug be wiped out through the over-zealous use of “pest” control.
Perhaps it will take a loss as catastrophic as this to make us reflect more seriously on the havoc we wreak on the natural world.
There’s no doubt that herbicides and pesticides damage nature — that’s the whole point! Once we achieve a critical mass of evidence that they also damage us (for we are not a part of nature?), perhaps we’ll finally get the message.
As in so many other areas of the modern world, money is the root of the problem and Diana is right that we need to address the idea of compensating farmers for lower yields in order to make organic farming more viable.
We also need big business to be a force for good rather than pursuing profit at any cost. — Yours faithfully,
Lottie Rundall
Wallingford
Save money and wildlife
Sir, — I entirely agree with your correspondent Derek Whittingham (Standard, April 15), it is so disappointing to see the green spaces of Henley strimmed down to the earth in spring, just when nature gets going after winter, and then through the summer.
I understand verges are cut in rotation as it has been “the practice of the council for many years”. Why?
On April 20 BBC news reported a catastrophic fall of 50 per cent of many insect populations.
Henley and its surroundings with a profusion of flowers and all the small creatures we need and love — and a large cost saving — is surely the correct path.
So let’s stop strimming now and encourage our flora and fauna. — Yours faithfully,
Simon Paine

Important impression
Sir, — All credit to Henley Town Council for pressure-washing Market Place paving last Saturday.
For my part, I’ve spring cleaned the Station Park noticeboard inside and out and look forward to the date for the Station Park paving and pavement being pressure-washed (to be confirmed by the council at the end of the month). The same excellent contractor can now be booked for Station Park, which is the main gateway to our town.
The tourist season is well underway and Henley Royal Regatta draws ever closer.
Station Park and the pavement are of equal importance to Market Place in terms of cleanliness and presentation for visitors and (council tax-paying) residents alike. — Yours faithfully,
Steve Ludlow

Spoiling our heritage
Caversham Park House and Estate, which dates back to the Norman Conquest, is under threat from a developer. William the Conqueror gifted the manor house and estate to his cousin and it was registered in the Domesday Book as having 2,400 acres.
Then in the 13th century Henry III granted William Earl of Pembroke 10 does to establish a deer park at Caversham Park.
Subsequent owners and visitors included Sir Frances Knollys, Elizabeth I and James I while Charles I was imprisoned at Caversham Park before his execution.
Then followed Lord Craven, Lord Cadogan and Capability Brown. Major Charles Marsac, who had made his fortune in India, followed in 1784.
Another visitor was Thomas Jefferson who became president of the United States.
In 1838 William Crawshay, owner of the biggest ironworks in the world, bought Caversham Park. Then in 1926 George V and Queen Mary visited the Royal Horticultural Show in the grounds of Caversham Park.
I am appalled that a proposal has been put to Reading Borough Council, seeking to destroy such an important part of our national heritage.
What is next — the profit-seeking grabbing of the Tower of London and Windsor Castle for “development”? They, too, are 1,000 years old. — Yours faithfully,

Stop homes at airfield
Sir, — With reference to your news story about the proposed development of Chalgrove Airfield and Oxfordshire County Council “not objecting” (Standard, April 15), it was a specific motion regarding the suitability of car-based sites.
The county and those who are both county and district councillors were concerned that the specifics of naming Chalgrove might run the risk of predeterminism but if the motion had been more generic in nature, I am sure it would have passed.
I spoke in favour of the motion proposed by Councillor Freddie van Mierlo (Chalgrove and Watlington), which called on the council to write to the Housing Secretary and the Department for Transport to question how a 3,000-house development in Chalgrove aligns with the stated environmental aims of the Government.
Unfortunately, the motion was defeated by 23 votes to 18 with two abstentions.
Although this is very disappointing, in some ways it was not wholly unexpected.
The case was made specifically for Chalgrove and is within South Oxfordshire District Council’s local plan.
This seems to have caused some procedural issues within the council, some confusion about the intent of the motion and the usual assumption that this is a Nimby issue.
It is not — we have never argued that more homes are not needed in Oxfordshire, all we ask is that they are built in sustainable locations — the right kind of house in the right place at the right price.
Chalgrove is already car-dependent yet is experiencing housing growth of 30 per cent, as are many of the local villages.
There are many proposed development sites in Oxfordshire that are rural and isolated and all should be looked at through both an environmental and a sustainability lens.
The Chalgrove site is unique in that it is being promoted solely by a Government agency, Homes England, at a time when every level of Government, from parish council to Westminster, has declared a climate emergency and should be working to create a low/zero-carbon infrastructure as a matter of urgency.
It was highlighted during the debate that the zero emission zone in Oxford was welcome but that 90 per cent of Oxfordshire’s road transport emissions come from rural transport.
Creating more car-dependent settlements in areas like this with no viable public transport option, as confirmed by the Oxford Bus Company’s response to the planning application, is clearly going to outweigh any benefits from this and similar initiatives.
In the end, divisions in the council, as is so often the case, were made along party lines, irrespective of the value of the motion being debated or the impact such decisions will have on the people who live in Oxfordshire.
We have always been of the opinion that elected officials should owe their allegiance to those who elect them rather than the party they represent.
The council has made some powerful claims about its commitment to lowering carbon emissions.
We find it astonishing and, frankly, embarrassing that it cannot even agree to write a simple letter to government departments to ask how developments of this nature support this commitment.
The site at Chalgrove (and others) directly contradicts the district, county and government policy regarding the declared climate emergency.
As things stand, there is no planning application in place for the airfield as Homes England withdrew its original application. — Yours faithfully,
Paul Boone

Skip men did us proud
Sir, — Can I congratulate Richard Hazell and Chris Stanley on their generous initiative to raise money for Cancer Research UK and promoting it for all to see (Standard, April 22)?
There was obviously some commercial gain for their company and why not?
I understand some of the pink skips were used by others as waste bins but any mess in and around them was quickly cleared up by Hazell & Jefferies, as was so aptly demonstrated by the many letters of support published in the Henley Standard.
What a shame that Freddie van Mierlo, Watlington’s Oxfordshire county councillor, seems so out of touch with local feelings.
Well done, Mr Hazell and Mr Stanley, you have done us all proud. — Yours faithfully,
David Orpwood
Watlington
Excellent initiative
Sir, — An Oxfordshire county councillor complains about the pink skip initiative from Hazell & Jefferies. Really…
Running a business is far from easy and marketing to attract new business is getting harder and harder.
The pink skip approach was a brilliant idea with a nice touch of being a benefit for charity.
If there were no laws broken and no real impact on others (other than personal opinion), then why has this been raised?
Local councils should be championing local business as opposed to tying their hands through personal opinion. Talk about stifling business… utterly ridiculous.
Well done to the Henley Standard for your article, which was great coverage for Hazell & Jefferies. — Yours faithfully,
Sean Taylor
Managing director, the Forces Group, Henley
Try harder, councillor
Sir. — I write to inform you of my disgust at the ”performance” to date of Freddie van Mierlo, Watlington’s representative on Oxfordshire County Council.
His behaviour thus far has shown that he is seriously out of touch with local residents both in his obvious disdain for local farmers and now charity fundraising.
Firstly, as a member of the “vegan-only lunch brigade” and more recently instrumental in the removal of the charity initiative involving pink skips. Honestly. For once in my life, words fail me. — Yours faithfully,
Chrissie Downing
Stonor
Scurrilous interfering
Sir, — I thoroughly applaud the initiative shown by Hazell & Jefferies in their March fundraising efforts.
On the other hand I cannot think what Councillor Freddie van Mierlo was thinking of by taking the action he took to curtail this fun and effective method of raising funds for such an excellent charity.
I would also question what he was implying with his statement: “...donate an appropriate sum directly to the charity they claim to support.”
I am most unhappy to feel that a local councillor feels that he can make such a scurrilous interference in public. I urge him to make a public apology. — Yours faithfully,
Ian Wylie
Britwell Salome
More from Prof please
Sir, — We were indeed fortunate to have an article by Professor Dan Remenyi in our local paper full of down-to-earth common sense about the huge cost of the war in Ukraine with the question of who is going to pay.
I wish we had more of this sort of discussion on mainstream media rather than the constant grumbling of how the rise in the state pension is not big enough, that it won’t cover the cost of a hairdresser, or having your toenails cut, and that we will all be starving or freezing to death next winter.
It’s extraordinary to me that we have any increase at all with our national debt at astronomical levels.
There is always a material cost to doing the right thing and waving blue and yellow flags may make people feel they are doing something but we are all going to have to consider how to we cut our own expenditure.
We have had years and years of living beyond our means and become used to a feeling of entitlement, whether it’s healthcare, pensions, benefits or mortgage relief, to name but a few.
And now we will have to have years and years of belt-tightening.
More please from people like Prof Remenyi. — Yours faithfully,
Diana Hutchinson
King’s Road, Henley
Misleading poll result
Sir, — It was disappointing to see last week the result of your poll of readers of your website, www.henleystandard.co.uk, which showed that 51 per cent thought “asylum seekers should be sent to Rwanda for processing”.
The result is perhaps not surprising as the question itself gave the misleading impression that those sent there would have their applications to live in the UK decided there.
In fact, what is being proposed is permanent deportation for those seeking asylum to a country thousands of miles away where none will have ever lived or have any family connections.
I think — and would much hope — that in a town like Henley, which prides itself on helping, for instance, Ukrainian families fleeing from war, if the reality of this inhuman policy had been better understood and the question better phrased, that the result would have been entirely different. — Yours faithfully,
Dominic Scott
Church Lane, Peppard
You can bank at post office
For those like your correspondent Mike Romans who have found themselves abandoned by Barclays, Lloyds or Santander (Standard, April 22), banking is available at post offices.
We accept cheque deposits, cash deposits and cash withdrawals (up to certain amounts) and balance enquiries for most banks apart from Nationwide, which is cash withdrawal only.
There are post office branches in Henley, Shiplake, Hambleden, Caversham and Emmer Green and mobile branches that visit Nettlebed, Wargrave and Stoke Row. — Yours faithfully,
Carol Harvey
Sub-postmistress, Lower Shiplake Post Office
‘Banking’ difficulties
Sir, — I would like to say how lucky Mike Romans was to have a cheque.
At least he can take that to the nearby post office and pop it in an envelope, with or without a paying in slip.
I am the honorary treasurer of two local churches and wish to bank the collections, which are in cash.
This is not so easy as the Post Office does not have Barclays Bank listed on its system so it can only take it with a debit or credit card, but these are community accounts so there is no debit or credit card.
Barclays has closed both its Marlow and Henley branches.
I agree with Mr Romans’s excellent idea of a community bank building for all the main banks where we can continue to bank cash and cheques (while both are still legal tender).
I believe that Barclays does “hang out” in the library in Marlow but only to talk to its customers. — Yours faithfully,
Helen Jackson
Fingest
Outrageous increase
Editor, — In these straightened times, how can the £1.20 slot in the car parks go up by 40p?
I make that 30 per cent increase. Even inflation is seven per cent.
Don’t the powers-that-be want people to come to Henley? — Yours faithfully,
Peter Warrick
Churchill Crescent, Sonning Common
Health talk from expert
Sir, — Sonning Common Health Centre’s patient participation group would like people to talk more openly about breast cancer, so it is holding a breast cancer health information event. We would like to invite people to attend the event with guest speaker Brendan Smith on Tuesday, May 4 from 6pm to 7.15pm via Zoom.
Mr Smith is a highly trained and dedicated consultant oncoplastic breast surgeon with more than 15 years of specialist experience.
This wealth of experience has resulted in leading expertise across the field of oncoplastic breast surgery, such as breast reconstruction, breast cancer, breast reduction, breast augmentation, benign breast diseases and revisional breast surgery.
Mr Smith is kindly going to share some of his wealth of knowledge about breast cancer.
Information will include what to look for, how to get help if you find anything of concern, what treatments are available and how breast cancer can be managed.
If you would like to attend the talk, please email schcppg@gmail.com — Yours faithfully,

Bathurst, 3 February 2017 - Just one week after the 24 Hours of Daytona, official Ferrari driver Toni Vilander is in Bathurst, Australia, to compete in one of the most prestigious 12 Hours of the season. Indeed there will be a Ferrari present on Sunday at the Mount Panorama circuit.
The team. The 488 GT3 of Mark Coffey's Maranello Motorsport will be there. In 2014 this team gave the Prancing Horse its first and only victory in the Australian classic founded in 1991. The team based in Richmond, Virginia, triumphed three years ago with a 458 Italia driven by former Formula 1 driver Mika Salo with Australians John Bowe, Peter Edwards and Craig Lowndes.
Drivers. This is Toni Vilander's debut in the Bathurst 12 Hour. The Finn will team up with two greats of Australian motorsport both from Melbourne. One is Craig Lowndes, 42, a winner with Ferrari in 2014, whose first victory was 1994 when he was the new Australian Formula Ford champion. He has also won one V8 Supercars and two Australian Touring Car Championships. Jamie Whincup will complete the trio making his debut at Bathurst and with Ferrari. The 33 year old has six wins to his name in the V8 Supercars championship and the 2002 Australian Formula Ford.
The track. The 6.2-kilometre long Mount Panorama track, considered one of the most difficult in the world, has been dubbed "Blue Hell", just like the "Green Hell" of the old Nürburgring. Ferrari won the Bathurst 12 Hour in 2014, but has two other victories to its credit on this circuit. The first was in 1968 with Australia's Bill Brown at the wheel of a 350 P4 of Scuderia Veloce. The most recent was in 2015 in the Prodsport championship with the 458 Italia of DeFelice Homes crewed by Tony DeFelice and the Dane Benny Simonsen.
Programme. The Bathurst 12 Hour will begin with free practices on Friday, which will be followed by qualifying on Saturday. The race will start at 5:45 am on Sunday morning, Australian time (7:45 pm CET on Saturday) and will end at the stroke of the twelfth hour. It will be livestreamed at

I attended a Raftaar concert in Delhi with my OnePlus 9 Pro: Here are some images
I attended a Kalamkaar concert recently in Delhi. Artists including Raftaar, KR$NA and Raja Kumari performed live at the event. I choose to carry my OnePlus 9 Pro to shoot images. Here are some samples.

As smartphones evolve each day, the gap between traditional cameras and these handheld powerful mini computers, packing high end shooters becomes lesser and lesser.
While OnePlus launched its OnePlus 10 Pro this year, the cameras do not feature a lot of improvements. In many aspects, the 9 Pro is still the better overall camera atleast on paper.
Here is an image which showcases the zoom prowess of the OnePlus 9 Pro. I tried clicking a shot while zooming 30x, and tried my best to get a stable shot amidst the crowd.I attended a Kalamkaar concert recently in Delhi. Artists including Raftaar , KR$NA and Raja Kumari among others performed live at the event. I choose to carry my OnePlus 9 Pro to shoot images. Here are some samples.
The main camera did a commendable job in capturing shots.

Some of the biggest companies in the world, including Facebook and Google, are planning to spend almost $1 billion on a new climate change strategy.
It's not renewable energy or planting trees. It's pulling carbon dioxide emissions right out of the air.
The world has moved so slowly over the last 40 years to rein in greenhouse gases that scientists are now finding that cutting the use of fossil fuels alone may not be enough to stave off the worst effects of climate change. The world is on track for increasingly destructive heat waves, floods and storms. That means heat-trapping gases may also need to be pulled out of the atmosphere.
It's known as "carbon dioxide removal." In the latest international climate assessment, scientists found that using it will be "unavoidable" if countries are going to meet their pledges to keep average global temperatures from rising to ever-harmful levels.
Loading...
Much of the technology to soak up carbon is still in its infancy. Some techniques can have significant impacts on the land. Some climate activists argue it's a risky distraction and that it would give the fossil fuel industry a free pass to keep operating.
Still, scientists running the numbers say the world has reached a point where every possible strategy is needed. Global emissions are still going the wrong direction. In 2021, they reached the highest level ever.
Why scientists say carbon removal is needed
To stave off extreme climate change impacts that could displace millions of people, scientific data show that greenhouse gas emissions need to fall fast. Emissions need to drop 43% by 2030 and then fall to net-zero by mid-century, in order to limit warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit).
Some solutions to cut emissions, like using renewable energy, are already widespread and cost-effective. But some emissions will be trickier to tackle. Farming produces emissions both from disturbing the soil and from the use of fertilizers, which provide food for soil microbes that release heat-trapping gases. The technology to create aircraft and ocean-going shipping vessels that don't produce emissions is still experimental. Some industrial processes, like steel-making, require fuels that create extremely high heat.
By mid-century, those sectors may still be producing emissions. But by then, the overall level of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere needs to stop rising, much like keeping a bathtub from overflowing.
"If you want to stop the water level from going up, you either need to turn off the faucet or scoop out as much water as you put in," says Katherine Calvin, NASA's Chief Scientist and Senior Climate Advisor and an author on the IPCC report. "The same is true of climate. If you want to stop temperature from rising, you either need to stop carbon dioxide from going into the system or scoop out as much as you put in."
In essence, carbon dioxide removal is like scooping water out of the bathtub. It makes up for the emissions that still could be going into the atmosphere and potentially even more than that, removing emissions that have already been produced.
How does carbon removal work?
Simply put, the idea is to absorb carbon dioxide emissions that have already accumulated in the atmosphere. Then, those emissions would be locked away in some kind of permanent storage, generally in underground geologic formations, so they don't escape to create more warming down the road. But despite carbon dioxide's power to heat the planet, it's very diffuse, making up less than 1% of the atmosphere. That makes it tricky to capture from the air in large quantities.
Option 1: Use nature to absorb carbon emissions
Nature is the most powerful carbon sponge around us. Plants take up carbon dioxide through the process of photosynthesis, locking it away in their tissues, making the world's forests, grasslands, soils, and wetlands huge reservoirs of carbon. Building up these natural reserves could help slow warming, whether through planting forests, restoring wetlands and mangroves or encouraging agricultural practices that store carbon in the soil. This method is by far the cheapest so far. However, those ecosystems must be protected from development. If the plants and ecosystem are lost, the carbon escapes back into the atmosphere.
Option 2: Use leftover plants to make energy and capture the emissions
Plants are already used to make electricity in biomass power plants, which means while that plant material trapped carbon, the carbon is released in the process of generating energy. A handful of biomass power plants are working on capturing those carbon emissions and then storing them in underground geologic formations. It's known as "bioenergy with carbon capture and storage."
The biomass used is often leftover material, like waste from agricultural crops, forest harvests or food waste, or it can come from crops grown specifically for that purpose. This strategy has the added benefit of producing electricity at the same time. But scaling it up could require more land, putting pressure on wild ecosystems which also store carbon and provide habitat for wildlife. It would take an estimated 115,000 to 166,000 square miles of land, as large as California, to grow the biomass needed to pull 1 billion tons of carbon dioxide out of the air.
Option 3: Pull it out of the air with big machines
Last year, the largest carbon removal project of its kind started up in Iceland. The Orca plant, run by the Swiss company Climeworks, is essentially a carbon vacuum. Fans pull in air, the carbon is captured by a special material and then it's pumped underground into geologic formations where it mineralizes, remaining trapped.
Other "direct air capture" plants, as they're known, are in development in the U.S. But most are still pilot projects. The technology is expensive and requires a lot of energy. One analysis shows that capturing a ton of carbon this way takes almost as much energy as burning 100 gallons of gasoline, which produces a ton of carbon. If the energy used isn't renewable, it would add more heat-trapping gases to the atmosphere.
Oh, and capturing emissions from fossil fuels doesn't count
Some power plants that burn fossil fuels like coal and natural gas are also working on capturing their carbon emissions and then permanently storing them underground. That helps keep new emissions from reaching the atmosphere, but it doesn't lower that overall amount of greenhouse gases already emitted. Fossil fuels hold loads of carbon that used to be buried underground, so trapping those emissions only neutralizes itself and doesn't help offset emissions from other sources.
So, how much carbon removal is needed?
It all depends on how fast humans can reduce their use of fossil fuels now. But the sooner concentrations of greenhouse gases fall in the atmosphere, the faster the trend of rapidly warming temperatures can be stopped.
By mid-century, carbon removal may need to be scaled up to 10 billion tons of carbon per year, according to a report from the National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine. Right now, direct air capture plants are just sequestering .01 million tons.
The recent report from the IPCC published overall estimates of how much carbon dioxide removal might be needed, but those numbers were removed due to inconsistencies in how land-based emissions are calculated among different countries. Still, through the end of the century, the report found up to 1 trillion tons of carbon dioxide may need to be removed through bioenergy and direct air capture alone.
What are the downsides of carbon removal?
Cost looms large for carbon capture. The Biden Administration recently set a goal of getting carbon removal to below $100 per metric ton within a decade. Currently, capturing carbon directly from the air with technology can cost six or seven times that. And no one is really sure who will pay for it.
Carbon capture projects could also have a big land impact, requiring large industrial facilities that transport carbon underground, a big concern for environmental justice communities who already bear a heavier burden of living near industry. Demand for bioenergy crops could displace both people and ecosystems that are key to biodiversity.
Some climate activists also worry that focusing on unproven technologies now will dissuade world governments from rapidly cutting their fossil fuel use. They say oil and gas companies are making the case that fossil fuels can keep operating with carbon removal technologies, though that will likely take decades or longer to get established.
"This is influencing many industrial countries to kick the can down the road and make it seem as if we don't need to act urgently and unequivocally right now because later there will be this technology," says Genevieve Guenther, founder of the climate advocacy group End Climate Silence and affiliate faculty at The New School. "It's a new form of climate denial."
No matter the path that countries choose on climate change, the IPCC report emphasizes that carbon dioxide removal will never be the main strategy to combat climate change. Cutting emissions is.
"There is a certain newness factor from carbon dioxide removal and it gets a lot of attention," says Oliver Geden, senior fellow at the German Institute for International and Security Affairs and an author of the recent IPCC report. "But still, it should not be the priority of what we're doing. It should not be the thing we're focusing on. The focus needs to be on reducing emissions and carbon dioxide removal is only a complement to that."

ON behalf of the PNC/R, the parliamentary opposition, and on my personal behalf, I extend warm Eid-ul-Fitr greetings on this joyous occasion to all Guyanese, especially our Muslim brothers and sisters here in Guyana and in the diaspora. The festival of Eid-ul-Fitr signals the conclusion of the holy month of Ramadan in which Muslims increased their worship and charity, and fasted the entire month in obedience to God Almighty.
Ramadan reminded us of our responsibilities to nurturing brotherhood, social responsibility, and the commitment to self-sacrifice to ensure the less fortunate can benefit from food, clothing and shelter. As Ramadan comes to an end and as we celebrate Eid-ul-Fitr, let us continue to demonstrate compassion and kindness to one another. Let us continue to strive for social cohesion in Guyana. Let us live up to the ideal of religious tolerance as is enshrined in our constitution.
Eid Mubarak to Guyana on this festive occasion. May God Almighty grant us unity and harmony as we endeavour to build a Guyana free from fear and ill will and seek to nurture the goodness of Ramadan and Eid-ul-Fitr.
Eid Mubarak!

The house is about 3,000 square feet with six bedrooms, four of them on the second floor, surrounding a stairway to the large open space below where cooking, dining, game-playing, and movie-watching take place.
November 2016, Vol. 16 Issue 10
Perched above a lake on Australia’s verdant Mornington Peninsula, James and Imogen Tutton’s teak-clad house was designed by Karen Alcock of Melbourne-based MA Architects.
Green and Live House is a minimal home located in Nara, Japan, designed by Akka. The land is surrounded by trees and beautiful scenery, something the architects wanted to expose to the residents by providing large glazings and a balcony. In addition to the balcony, a study is situated adjacent to the staircase which also provide expansive views of the forest. A semi-private courtyard allows the residents to maintain a garden, and seamlessly integrate the outdoors with the interior.

A Simple Plan
A Marmol Radziner–designed prefab house, trucked onto a remote Northern California site, takes the pain out of the construction process.
This 3,200-square-foot structure was assembled with a prefabricated foundation, concrete panel siding, and efficient built-ins, minimizing construction debris and toxins—such as concrete foundation tar—on the site.
An attentive sensitivity to site played into nearly every aspect of both the exterior andinterior spaces of the home. Architect Peter Rose collaborated with landscape architect Michael Van Valkenburgh, who worked to craft and maintain the wild, organic feel of the environs. Will Parry, a local builder, custom-fabricated all of the sustainably harvested Spanish cedar-and-glass windows and skylights throughout. Here, a vertical-swinging window at the end of the entry hallway opens directly to a lush expanse of vegetation.
Subtle features incorporated into the design, including an elevated terrace and jetty, help the home float above the island. | https://www.dwell.com/@james1897 | 2022-05-02T09:55:22Z | https://www.dwell.com/@james1897 | false | 1 |
EU may offer Hungary, Slovakia exemptions from Russian oil embargo
The European Commission may spare Hungary and Slovakia from an embargo on buying Russian oil, now under preparation, wary of how dependent the two countries are on Russian crude, two EU officials said on Monday.

The European Commission may spare Hungary and Slovakia from an embargo on buying Russian oil, now under preparation, wary of how dependent the two countries are on Russian crude, two EU officials said on Monday. The Commission is expected to finalize on Tuesday work on the next, and sixth package of EU sanctions against Russia over its actions in Ukraine, which would include a ban on buying Russian oil because oil exports are a major source of Moscow's revenue.
Hungary, heavily dependent on Russian oil, has repeatedly said it would not sign up for sanctions involving energy. Slovakia is also one of the EU countries most reliant on Russian fossil fuels. To keep the 27-nation bloc united, the Commission might offer Slovakia and Hungary "an exemption or a long transition period", one of the officials said.
The oil embargo is likely to be phased in anyway, most likely only taking full effect from the start of next year, officials said. The package is to be presented to ambassadors of EU governments on Wednesday.

LEEDS, Ala. (AP) — All it took was a change of mindset for Pato O’Ward to turn around his season.
Now he’s on the verge of signing a new contract and a win Sunday at Barber Motorsports Park moved him back into the championship picture.
“It’s all smiles and unicorns, man,” O’Ward said Sunday after his first victory of the season.
O’Ward entered the season vocally unhappy about his current contract with Arrow McLaren SP, which has the popular Mexican signed through 2024 to team-friendly terms. O’Ward wanted more money, more assurances for his Formula One aspirations and a new contract.
But when his unhappiness began to hurt his on-track performance, O’Ward made a conscious decision to compartmentalize his complaints and focus on his job. The effort led to Sunday’s win, his first of the year and third of his career.
O’Ward used a strong outside pass of pole-sitter Rinus VeeKay after both pitted for fresh tires to take the lead then drive away for the victory. The win broke a Team Penske stranglehold on this year’s IndyCar results.
“Man, it sucks to be at war within your own team, right? So I’m glad there’s been more positive talks for the future,” said O’Ward, who has agreed with McLaren on principle on an extension.
“I was tired of being 10th and 11th and fifth and I said ‘Let’s get a win under our belts so we can climb back into this championship race.’”
The victory rocketed O’Ward from ninth to fifth in the standings.
Penske drivers Scott McLaughlin and Josef Newgarden swept the first three races of the season, all while O’Ward was pouting over his contract. But on the eve of the Long Beach Grand Prix two weeks ago, the 22-year-old decided he didn’t want to throw his season away over hurt feelings.
He dug deep for a fifth-place finish at Long Beach, huddled with McLaren head Zak Brown on the terms of an extension, then showed up in Barber ready to win some races. His shot came after a pit stop with 28 laps remaining when VeeKay and O’Ward pitted at the same time.
VeeKay came out ahead but O’Ward hunted him through the first four turns then used a brave move — and his push-to-pass — around the Dutchman to seize control of the race.
The win made Chevrolet 4 for 4 as IndyCar heads next to Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
“The driver in our team… is the quarterback, right? As the quarterback goes, the rest of the team goes. As the driver goes, the rest of the team goes,” said McLaren team president Taylor Kiel. “He has such an infectious spirit, such an energy, that it’s impactful to what we do in a very good way.
“I think we’ve got a driver that can compete and win at any circuit type. We put a good car together. If we come prepared, roll off the truck in a good window, it’s hard to beat.”
Alex Palou, the reigning IndyCar champion and defending race winner at Barber, finished second for Chip Ganassi Racing and reclaimed the points lead. His attention then turned to three weeks of racing in Indianapolis, where Palou was runner-up in last year’s Indianapolis 500.
VeeKay, who led a race-high 57 of the 90 laps, faded to third for Ed Carpenter Racing.
“I was so much looking in my mirrors that I forgot to use my push-to-pass,” VeeKay said of not using a burst of extra horsepower to hold off O’Ward.
Will Power rallied from 19th to finish fourth, the best of the Penske drivers, while six-time IndyCar champion Scott Dixon was fifth for Ganassi.
There were late-race fireworks between fellow Honda drivers Graham Rahal and Romain Grosjean as the two raced for position, and an irate Rahal screamed over his radio “that guys a punk! He hit me on purpose.”
An animated Rahal was seen after smacking his arm into Grosjean teammate Alexander Rossi to demonstrate Grosjean hitting Rahal’s car.
“We touched a couple of times, but it was good racing,” said Grosjean, who denied hitting Rahal on purpose. “No. No. No. It’s IndyCar, wheel-to-wheel action.”
Rahal didn’t believe him.
“Look at that, look at how much room he has!” Rahal said watching the replay. “I’m just frustrated because this isn’t the first time. In St. Pete, he hit everybody.”
Rahal then wondered if IndyCar officials are watching Grosjean — and even if they are, will they do anything about excessive aggression?
“As another driver in the series told me, ‘You can’t teach an old dog new tricks,’ and he’s had this reputation his whole career in Europe and we’re learning his reputation quickly here,” Rahal said. “If race control doesn’t want to do anything, then they aren’t going to do anything. But when we go and punt him, they better not do anything to me. In the past, I’ve been penalized for a lot less than that.”
UP NEXT
IndyCar is off next weekend and most of the drivers are headed to Miami for Formula One’s debut race on Sunday. The series returns to action May 14 on the road course at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. VeeKay is the defending race winner.

'We Tried To Make Imran Khan Understand Situation,' Says Pervez Elahi
Abdullah Hussain (@Abdulla99267510) Published May 02, 2022 | 01:22 PM
Chaudhary Pervez Elahi says he had asked him to focus on his work but he committed the same mistake what his predecessors had committed.
LAHORE: (UrduPoint/UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News-May 2nd, 2022) PML- Q leader and Punjab Assembly Speaker Chaudhary Pervez Elahi said that whole matter got disturbed due to "Peshawar wala".
Chaudhary Pervez Elahi said he had tried to make Imran Khan understand the situation and asked him to focus on his work but he committed the same mistake what his predecessors had committed.
He was giving an interview to a local private tv in Lahore which viral on social media.
He said Imran Khan's answer to his suggestion was not so good and finally the matter got disturbed.
PML-Q is the ckose ally of PTI but their alliance has not yielded any fruit for both sides yet as Hamza Shahbaz has taken oath as the Punjab Chief Minister. Both allies are now saying that his election was wrong and thus his oath.

A man was seriously injured in an attack outside a pub this weekend.
The victim was glassed in the face at around 1am on Sunday, May 1, outside Prenton Park pub, in Borough Road. Police say that the victim did not know the suspect and it was an unprovoked attack.
The suspect ran off from the scene and reportedly struck a bus stop injuring himself. Detectives are treating the attack as a hate crime as the victim believes the assault was motivated by his gender identity.

Police later arrested a 23-year-old man, from Oxton, on suspicion of Section 18 Assault. He was taken into custody and is being questioned by police.
The victim was taken to hospital for serious but non-life-threatening injuries to his face. Detective Inspector John Holden said: "This was an utterly appalling, unprovoked attack, which police are treating as a hate crime. It is completely abhorrent to think that someone could be subject to such physical abuse simply because of their gender identity.
"Merseyside Police stands against hate crime perpetrated against LGBT+ people and we simply will not tolerate people being targeted in this way. Although we have made one arrest, our enquiries remain ongoing.
"If you were in the Tranmere area on Saturday night or the early hours of Sunday morning then please let us know as information you hold could be vital to our enquiries. Similarly if you were driving along Borough Road and have dashcam footage, please review it and get in touch if you see anything.
"Whether you let us know directly or anonymously, through Crimestoppers, please get in touch and we can take action. I would also take this opportunity to urge any victim of hate crime on Merseyside to please come forward. We have a dedicated team of hate crime co-ordinators who will make sure you will be supported at every step as sensitively as possible."
Anyone with information on this incident is asked to contact Merseyside Police social media desk via Twitter @MerseyPolice or Facebook Merseyside Police Contact Centre with reference 22000297123.

ORHS to display 20,000-pound naval anchor
Oak Ridge High School plans to display a genuine U.S. Navy anchor.
The Oak Ridge High School Naval Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps received the anchor from the Naval Museum. It had previously been on display at the former Roosevelt Roads Naval Station in Puerto Rico. Keith Klemm, commander for the NJROTC, gave those details and more about the anchor.
It is 10 feet tall by about eight feet wide and about 20,000 pounds.
He told the Oak Ridge Board of Education that he did not know the name of the original ship that used the anchor.
The anchor has already arrived in Oak Ridge, but Klemm said the NJROTC is working on raising funds to give it a new concrete pad home. The School Board at its April 25 meeting agreed to allow the changes to the school grounds for that pad and a sign. The cement pad, as indicated in that meeting's agenda documents, will be near the student drop off loop and the NJROTC's classroom.
"It gives the students the understanding the program exists," Klemm told The Oak Ridger regarding the anchor and its relation to the NJROTC program. "It gives the students a sense of ownership in the school and the program."
The project is not using local school funds. Klemm said some donations related to the anchor and its transportation have already come from Y-12 National Security Complex and the NJROTC Booster Club, but he is looking for more donations to help with the display.

The sheer athleticism it takes to compete in the NBA, when combined with fasting in observance of Ramadan, has placed Kyrie Irving of the Brooklyn Nets and other Muslim athletes in a league of their own.
During the month of Ramadan, many Muslims engage in fasting from sunrise to sundown. The timing of Ramadan is dependent on the lunar calendar, and this year it was from April 1 to Sunday — which happened to be during the NBA playoffs.
After scoring 34 points in a playoff series game on April 12, Irving shared how he was able to perform at a high level while observing the holy month.
One reason why elite athletes like Irving have been able to compete during Ramadan stems from how a body can cope with change, Dr. Qanta Ahmed, a sleep specialist, told NPR over the phone.
Most athletes fasting during Ramadan are able to "adjust because once they've established a routine, which included the sleep, changing the calories and of course, the limited hydration ... most of the shock to their system would be in the first week," said Ahmed, who is a professor at NYU-Langone Long Island School of Medicine and co-author of a paper analyzing the impact of Ramadan on Muslim soccer players.
"So it's by the end of the Ramadan or by later in Ramadan, they've actually made the adaptations and coping quite well," she added.
Aside from Irving, Omer Yurtseven (Miami Heat), Gorgui Dieng (Atlanta Hawks), Jaylen Brown (Boston Celtics) and Enes Kanter (Boston Celtics) are other Muslim players competing in the playoffs.
Kanter wrote an op-ed for the Washington Post in 2019 describing his experience of fasting while playing.
"I want to be an example for children everywhere, showing them that you can thrive when challenged — fasting for Ramadan, for instance, but also going all out in the NBA playoffs," Kanter said.
For Irving, there also have been moments where he needed to break the fast with a snack, which is OK for Muslims.
While fasting is one of the five pillars of Islam, it is not obligated for everyone given their circumstance. The purpose of Ramadan is not to be punitive, and religious leaders agree there are other ways to honor the faith if fasting is not possible.
"They should be given the understanding that this is not supposed to be burdensome if they feel they're so sleep-deprived, and they're so hungry, and they're so thirsty, and it's taking their mind off the game. And their job is to perform for the game. That's their personal decision," Ahmed said.
Islam and the NBA
In the 1990s, Houston Rockets star Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon was vocal about his fasting.
He was also cognizant of the negative stereotypes surrounding Muslims and felt it was important to use his platform to positively share his faith.
"I feel much better. I feel lighter, faster, much more mentally focused," Olajuwon said in 1996. "When God prescribes something, it is for your best interest."
Being Muslim in America, let alone as a public figure, has not always been easy.
Before Olajuwon, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was intent on changing the public perception of Islam. The six-time MVP and 19-time All-star converted to Islam at the age of 24 and left his birth name of Lew Alcindor behind.
"I have never wavered or regretted my decision to convert to Islam," Abdul-Jabar wrote in 2015. "When I look back, I wish I could have done it in a more private way, without all the publicity and fuss that followed. But at the time I was adding my voice to the civil rights movement by denouncing the legacy of slavery and the religious institutions that had supported it. That made it more political than I had intended and distracted from what was, for me, a much more personal journey."
Like Olajuwon, Irving remains one of the most outspoken athletes in and out of the NBA when it comes to his faith.
"I am not alone in this," Irving said last month. "I have brothers and sisters all around the world that are fasting with me. We hold our prayers and our meditations very sacred and when you come out here, I mean, God's inside me, God's inside you, God's inside all of us. So, I am walking with faith and that's all that matters."

A court has asked police to investigate claims that ex-OPM official Neville Gafà attempted to bribe witnesses to stop them testifying in a medical visa scam libel case that he lost on Monday.
Gafà lost two libel suits against The Malta Independent on Sunday over stories implicating him in the alleged racket back in 2014.
The stories, published in August 2016, claimed that a “Government official was netting up to €150,000 a month in medical visa scam” and “Receipts show €35,000 in payments made to Gafà by Libyan middleman.”
The claims revolved around allegations made by twelve Libyan nationals, all casualties of the civil war, that the former government official, who introduced himself as “an agent of health of Malta”, had demanded money for treatment.
At the time, the Maltese government had offered free treatment to casualties of the Libyan civil war.
Yet Gafà was allegedly charging patients a monthly fee of some €2,500 to secure medical visas, treatment and accommodation, along with an additional €100 charge.
Offered money not to testify
Throughout the libel proceedings filed by Gafà against the newspaper’s former editor David Lindsay, five of those men testified via Skype about their ordeal.
They claimed further that Gafà had subsequently travelled to Libya and offered them money so as not to testify against him in a case concerning the alleged medical visas racket.
When delivering judgment on Monday in the libel proceedings the court, presided over by Magistrate Victor George Axiak threw out Gafà’s claims, upholding the respondent’s pleas of truth and fair comment.
Moreover, the court recommended that the Police Commissioner investigate the allegations made by the witnesses about Gafà’s attempts to “buy their silence.”
Having said that the court pointed out that this did not mean that there was sufficient evidence from a criminal law aspect to allege that Gafà was embroiled in bribery.
Such a matter was to be assessed before the appropriate court and until there was a final decision in criminal proceedings, the applicant was to be considered innocent, the court said.
More details to follow.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The United States and 55 other nations this week signed a political commitment to push rules for the internet that are underpinned by democratic values, at a time when the U.S. has accused Russia of wielding internet disruptions as a part of its escalating attacks on Ukraine.
The commitment, called the “Declaration for the Future of the Internet” – the first such effort of its kind – protects human rights, promotes free flow of information, protects the privacy of users, and sets rules for a growing global digital economy among steps to counter what two Biden administration officials called a “dangerous new model” of internet policy from countries such as Russia and China.
The United States is witnessing a global trend of rising digital authoritarianism, with countries such as Russia having acted to repress freedom of expression, censor independent news sites, interfere with elections, promote disinformation, and deny their citizens other human rights, the officials said.
“Look at what…Russia is doing, some of the steps China is taking, and I think we see this as a response to these kind of ‘splinternet’ tendencies by a number of authoritarian countries around the world,” one of the officials said, referring to a characterization of the internet as splintering and dividing due to various factors, such as politics.
Since its invasion of Ukraine, Russia has launched cyberattacks, including hacking into a satellite internet provider’s network at the beginning of the invasion. The administration officials said the new effort is not an attempt to address cyber warfare.
The declaration is a modified version of the White House’s efforts from last year to rally a coalition of democracies around a vision for an open and free web.
The countries joining the U.S. include Australia, Argentina, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Israel, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Ukraine. | https://cde.news/56-nations-to-set-new-global-rules-for-the-internet/ | 2022-05-02T10:16:38Z | https://cde.news/56-nations-to-set-new-global-rules-for-the-internet/ | false | 7 |

Finnish nuclear power company Fennovoima announced on Monday the termination of the contract for the construction of the Hanhikivi 1 nuclear power plant (NPP) with Russia's state nuclear corporation Rosatom in Finland's Pyhajoki.
"Fennovoima has terminated the contract for the delivery of the Hanhikivi 1 nuclear power plant with Rosatom," the company said in a statement, adding that cooperation is ended "with immediate effect and both the design and licensing work and works at the Hanhikivi 1 site with RAOS project end."
The Finnish company also said it made the decision "due to RAOS Project's [legal entity of Rosatom in Finland] significant delays and inability to deliver the project."
"The war in Ukraine has worsened the risks for the project. RAOS has been unable to mitigate any of the risks," the statement added. (ANI/Sputnik)

Evacuation of Mariupol Residents underway with Assistance of the UN
The evacuation of residents of the Ukrainian city of Mariupol, who have been hiding in the Azovstal plant in recent weeks, has begun with the assistance of the United Nations, confirmed by Ukraine and Russia.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that the first group is expected in the morning in Zaporizhzhia.
At the same time, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov accused the Ukrainian leadership of sabotaging peace talks.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky welcomed the evacuation of civilians, stressed that the authorities in Zaporizhzhia will take care of the first group of evacuees - women and children fleeing hostilities in Azovstal. The metallurgical giant has become the last bastion of Mariupol's defenders against the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which began on February 24.
Zelensky expressed hope that all the necessary conditions would be met for the deportation of people from Mariupol to continue:
"Today we finally started the evacuation of people from Azovstal. After weeks of negotiations, after many attempts, various meetings, calls and proposals. There is not a day that we have not tried to find a solution that will save our people. Today, for the first time since the start of the war, this vital corridor was operational, with two days of the actual ceasefire.”
“More than 100 people have been evacuated - women and children fleeing hostilities there in Azovstal. Given the complexity of the process, the first evacuees will arrive in Zaporizhzhia in the morning. Our team will meet them there. I hope that all the necessary conditions will be met to continue the evacuation of people from Mariupol. We plan to start at 8 a.m.”
"The organization of humanitarian corridors is one element of the ongoing negotiation process," Zelensky said, stressing the complexity of the task and that more than 350,000 people have been rescued so far from combat zones.
In another address to the nation, Zelensky accused Russia of "waging a war of extermination" in Ukraine, adding yesterday's strikes affected non-military targets such as food and grain and fertilizer warehouses and housing estates.
According to regional authorities, eight people died yesterday in the Russian shelling in Kharkiv and Donetsk regions. Four were killed in Lyman, a city of 20,000 before the war, evacuated due to the advance of the Russian army.
The governor of the Russian Belgorod region also announced strong explosions in the morning. Since the beginning of the so-called "special military operation", the border areas have been repeatedly shelled by the Ukrainian side.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has accused Ukraine's leadership of sabotaging peace talks and the Ukrainian army of firing rockets and terrorizing residents of Donetsk and Kherson. Lavrov also said that Western officers were fighting in Ukraine.

Centre seeks more time from SC to respond on Sedition Law
Centre seeks more time from SC to respond on Sedition Law
New Delhi: The Central government has filed an application in the Supreme Court seeking more time to file its response over the petitions challenging section 124A of the Indian Penal Code(IPC) pertaining to sedition.
The bench led by the Chief Justice of India, NV Ramana, and comprising of Justice Surya Kant and Justice Hima Kohli are seized on the matter and had sought the Union of India's response in the last hearing, issuing notice to it. The court had directed the centre to file a reply by 30th April but the Centre could not saying that the response of the competent authority is pending.
In the earlier hearing the court had questioned the Centre on the necessity of sedition law after 75 years of independence. It had said that it's a British law that was used to silence Mahatma Gandhi and Bal Gangadhar Tilak before the country became independent and now its being misused for punishing those whose views differ.
"Our concern is the misuse of the law and no accountability of the executive," CJI had said.
The plea challenging the sedition law was filed by two journalists Kishorechandra Wangkhemcha and Kanhaiya Lal Shukla who were charged with sedition for their posts on social media. Thereafter other petitioners and intervenors also moved to the top court against the sedition law.
