Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness finally hits theaters this week, and fans will be able to experience the full potential of the Marvel multiverse. The film sees Benedict Cumberbatch return as our favorite sorcerer as he goes on a multiversal adventure with Wong, Scarlet Witch, America Chavez, and multiversal variants. Does this Marvel movie have any after-credits scenes, and if so, how many? We break it all down, spoiler-free, of course.
The film features two scenes after the end of the story. The first scene is a mid-credits stinger setting up more of what to expect from Doctor Strange in the future. It also follows up on events near the film's end. This scene will likely lead into Doctor Strange 3 or whenever we see Cumberbatch don the Cloak of Levitation once more. The mid-credits scene takes place right after the stylized credits like most Marvel teases.

After all the credits roll, the second scene is an excellent callback to a moment earlier in the film. It’s a fun wink and nod to audiences but holds no consequence on the story as a whole. Doctor Strange 2 continues the trend we’ve come to expect from Marvel and their post-credit scenes. The first will usually tease a future installment, while the second is a fun Easter egg or callback for fans.
The highly-anticipated film has already premiered, and the first audiences have had a chance to see the movie. We managed to round-up reactions from critics and audiences who managed to get a first look at the universe-shattering film. Click here to read all of their thoughts on Multiverse of Madness. There are plenty of opinions on Marvel’s latest film, and it can be maddening trying to make sense of it all. If you would like to read our spoiler-free review of the Doctor Strange sequel, click here.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is directed by Sam Raimi (The Evil Dead franchise) and shows us the Marvel universe(s) in a way we’ve never seen before. The events of WandaVision and Spider-Man: No Way Home come into play when Strange must fight to save all of reality from being destroyed. The film stars Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor Strange), Rachel McAdams (Christine Palmer), Chiwetel Ejiofor (Karl Mordo), Benedict Wong (Wong), and Xochitl Gomez (America Chavez).
Raimi’s horror roots manage to bring a unique style and feel to this Doctor Strange film. On top of that, we learn of the multiverse and how real the dangers of a multiversal collapse. Traveling through the multiverse is a challenging endeavor, and only a few are able to fight against this threat, which leads to the Sorcerer Supreme (and Doctor Strange) to try and maintain order. The Avengers protect the Earth, the Guardians of the Galaxy fight for the stars, and the Sorcerers of Kamar-Taj fight against supernatural threats.
Will Strange and his friends be able to save their universe as well as the entire multiverse? Find out when Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness hit theaters on May 6. | https://collider.com/doctor-strange-2-post-credits-scenes-how-many/ | 2022-05-03T23:42:35Z | https://collider.com/doctor-strange-2-post-credits-scenes-how-many/ | false | 1 |

International Day of the Midwife and International Nurses Day are approaching, celebrating the frontline of healthcare
The International Day of Nurses and the International Day of Midwives are both approaching, celebrating the dedicated and constant work from the front line of healthcare.
The days celebrate those who devote themselves to healthcare, but crucially, also serves as an advocacy opportunities for the investment and protection of the industry.
Officially, May 5 is the International Day of the Midwife for 2022, while May 12 is International Nurses Day 2022 but the two are often celebrated jointly.
Margaret King, chairwoman of the Local Area Health Committee, said that the day was especially important right now.
"This is an incredibly important day in the year. Nurses and midwives are incredibly special staff in normal times, however given what the world and Australia has gone through in the last two years, I think this day is particularly important in recognising their value," she said.
"They're so incredibly important. This year, it is really special that we recognise their value. They have been putting in huge hours working under difficult circumstances."
IN OTHER NEWS
If you have a particular nurse or midwife in mind who's gone above and beyond, the 2022 MLHD Excellence Awards are now open.
The awards recognise both health professionals and volunteers from across the region who've performed exceptionally.
This year will feature a new category, the 'Exceptional Rural Healthcare Award' for a staff member who demonstrates commitment to rural and regional healthcare.
MLHD chief executive Jill Ludford said it was good to see the awards recognising the staff and volunteers.
"During my site visits across the region, I see so many great initiatives and projects, and excellent delivery of quality service that it's great to see these staff rewarded for their efforts at the Excellence Award celebrations," she said.

To hear Scott Morrison and Josh Frydenberg tell it, yesterday's interest rate rise has nothing to do with them. It's exactly what should be expected because they handled the pandemic so brilliantly, and if rates are rising sooner than expected, it's because of international inflationary pressures.
Nothing to see here, they don't hold a hose, etc, etc.
And true, interest rates weren't going to stay at 0.1%. Maybe they were never even going to stay there until 2024 -- although under the Reserve Bank's now-abandoned "wages first" policy, we might have been waiting until the 2030s for wages growth to get above 3%. | https://www.crikey.com.au/2022/05/04/prime-minister-treasurer-own-chunk-of-rate-rise/ | 2022-05-03T23:49:37Z | https://www.crikey.com.au/2022/05/04/prime-minister-treasurer-own-chunk-of-rate-rise/ | true | null |

Disney Swaps 2023 Release Dates For ‘The Marvels’ & ‘Ant-Man 3’
Disney has made some late Friday additions to its 2023 release schedule, specifically around Marvel Studios. The changes aren’t drastic or significant, but there is a little switcheroo. Disney announced today that “The Marvels,” previously scheduled for February 2023, is moving to July 28, 2023. That’s the release date of “Ant-Man...

Starbucks misses sales estimates on China COVID curbs, suspends guidance
Starbucks Corp suspended its guidance for the rest of its fiscal year on Tuesday as sales growth missed Wall Street targets due to China's tough COVID-19 curbs. Comparable sales in China, where the chain has rapidly expanded in recent years to tap rising coffee consumption, declined 23%, overshadowing 12% growth in North America.
China's strict lockdown measures to meet its zero-COVID policy have upended operations of most global companies that have a significant presence in the Chinese market, including Apple, Gucci-parent Kering and Taco Bell-owner Yum China. "I remain convinced Starbucks' business in China will be eventually larger than our business in the U.S.," Chief Executive Officer Howard Schultz said in a call with investors.
The company expects "even greater impact" to its third-quarter results because of the timing of lockdowns in Shanghai and resurgence of the virus in Beijing and other cities. Even so, demand in its U.S. stores has been "relentless," Schultz said. Shares rose 5% in extended trading following the results.
"Demand and revenue are key drivers," said Ivan Feinseth, chief investment officer at Tigress Financial Partners. Tigress owns Starbucks stock on behalf of clients and accounts it manages. "Everything is going well in spite of the pandemic and strength in the United States offset the weakness in China." Global comparable sales at Starbucks, which recently brought Schultz back to lead the company amid a wave of unionization at its U.S stores, rose 7% in the second quarter, while analysts polled by Refinitiv had expected 7.1% growth.
UNION APPROACH More than 50 U.S. cafes have elected to join the Workers United union out of roughly 240 altogether that have sought to hold elections since August.
Despite already raising wages since last year, the company will invest an additional $200 million in fiscal 2022 to lift pay for store managers, increase training, revitalize its "Coffee Master" program for baristas and launch an internal app to communicate directly with its 240,000 U.S. employees. The company will also accelerate the rollout of new ovens and espresso machines and speed up maintenance and repairs. And it will update its consumer-facing app to give customers more accurate times to pick up their beverages.
The new money will bring total investments in employees and cafes to $1 billion this fiscal year alone. Schultz also said customers will be able to start adding tips to their credit and debit card purchases by late 2022, something that baristas at unionized stores in Buffalo, New York, asked for at the bargaining table.
"Federal law prohibits us from promising new wages and benefits at stores involved in union organizing. And by law, we cannot implement unilateral changes at stores that have a union," Schultz said, adding that "the union contract will not even come close to what Starbucks offers." Schultz said his latest term as CEO will be temporary and that he and the board hope to name a successor by the autumn, with the aim for that person to take over entirely by the first calendar quarter of 2023. Schultz plans to remain on the board afterwards.
Higher costs for labor, freight and commodities ate into North American operating margins, which contracted to 17.1% from 19.3% in the prior year. Total net revenue rose to $7.64 billion from $6.67 billion a year earlier, as the company opened 313 net new stores during the quarter. Analysts had expected $7.59 billion in quarterly revenue.

If you need information about the passport photo-taking process, the costs involved, and other alternatives to CVS to get a passport photo, then continue reading.
What Is the Cost of Getting a Passport Photo at CVS Pharmacy?
As per CVS’s website, It cost $16.99 for passport-size photos and an extra $2.99 for 2 additional photos. This price is the same for all CVS pharmacies. Although, remember that not all CVS pharmacy locations provide photo services. It is better to use the CVS store locator on their official Website before going there to avoid inconvenience.
The price increased recently from $14.99 to $16.99. Other photo service providers across the country have almost similar prices.
There may be discounts on various photo services at CVS, so it’s best to check in with their in-store employees before paying them. Additionally, CVS also offers a 3% discount on passport and other ID photos when paid with CVS extra care card.
Do I need to bring anything to get my passport photo taken at CVS?
No, you don’t need to bring anything specific to CVS pharmacy to get your photo taken. Though, there are some things to keep in mind before going to CVS to get your passport photo taken.
- Wear clothes that you normally wear every day. Don’t wear uniforms or any other clothing that looks like a uniform, also avoid wearing camouflage patterns. The passport office doesn’t accept photos with uniform or camouflage patterns.
- Although hats and headscarves are not allowed as per passport photo compliance, exceptions are made for religious and medical purposes. Just submit a statement with our signature that “verifies that the hat or head covering in your photo is part of traditional religious attire worn continuously in public” as per the state department’s official website. If you wear them for medical purposes, then submit a signed doctor’s statement verifying that the hat scarf is used daily for medical purposes
- You can’t wear eyeglasses and masks in your passport photos.
Can I Online Order My Passport Photo?
No, unfortunately, you can’t get your passport photo online. You will need to visit a CVS store that provides photo services to get a passport photo.
As the passport photo needs to meet a certain set of government requirements, visiting a CVS is the best option. Their KODAK biometric photo ID system will make sure to polish your photo and have it reach government-set standards for a passport photo.

- Wallet prints
- Collage prints
- Framed prints

- A significant facial trauma or surgery.
- You’ve had significant weight loss or weight gain.
- Removal or addition of piercings and tattoos.
As mentioned above, you can’t reuse your existing photo if you have undergone significant facial changes.
What Is the Use of Passport-size Photos Other Than for Passports?
There are many applications for passport size photos other than using them for passport and visa documents. Passport photos are needed to avail of many services, both online and offline.

For Identification Purposes
Passport photos are extremely useful for making police reports, in case your child has got lost or kidnapped on a trip. It will help the Authorities in identifying the child much sooner.
Passport photos are also very useful for luggage identification at airports and train stations, by slipping the photo into the luggage tag, you will have solid proof of its ownership.

Video feeds from security cameras at a trio of Brooklyn subway stations failed as workers tried to fix problems with their hardware less than 24 hours before a crazed gunman lit up a train full of straphangers last month, MTA officials say.
A letter sent by Metropolitan Transportation Authority Chairman Janno Lieber to members of Congress late Monday offers more detail as to why faulty video systems prevented the NYPD from obtaining images of alleged shooter Frank James after the terrifying April 12 attack wounded 10 and injured 13 others on a rush hour N train.
NYPD officials last month said James got off the uptown train at 36th St. in Sunset Park after firing 33 shots and releasing smoke cannisters. Cops said he crossed the platform and took an R train to 25th St. before casually walking onto the street.
MTA officials last month acknowledged the camera feeds were not working at the 25th St., 36th St. and 45th St. stations on the Fourth Ave. Line at the time of the shooting — and Monday’s letter explains why.
Technicians working for NYC Transit on April 7 were notified of a faulty fan in the communications room that operates the camera feeds.
They fixed the fan the next day — but the room’s alert system still indicated it was broken, according to the letter.
“On the morning of Monday, April 11, as technicians were installing new communication hardware, the camera streaming failed,” Lieber wrote.
The feeds cut out at 11:45 a.m. on April 11.
The feeds were still out 21 hours later on April 12 when James carried out his attack, according to the letter.
Breaking News
Lieber wrote that at the time of the shooting, the technicians were working to restore the video feeds in the communication room — but were forced to leave due to the NYPD’s investigation.
The cameras themselves were operational, MTA officials said. But the internet systems that feed video footage to computer servers are controlled by the NYPD, according to MTA sources.
“The MTA has over the last decade systematically removed localized recording from closed circuit television cameras in the subways — like the ones at that station — and turned it over to NYPD systems,” said one transit source who asked not to be named. “The police have total control of CCTV images in the subway.”
Lieber’s letter responded to an April 21 inquiry from members of Congress asking why the camera feeds failed and what the MTA has done with roughly $50 million in security money the agency has received from the feds over the last two years.
Lieber pointed out that the subway has roughly 10,000 cameras — and the ones that were working during the shooting helped the NYPD track down James a day after the attack.
“On any given day, we have approximately 99% availability of our subway station security cameras,” Lieber wrote. “Our repair protocol is to fix the camera within 72 hours, and staff currently estimate compliance with this goal to be approximately 80% of the time.”
Lieber wrote the MTA needs another $1 billion to further expand security camera systems on the agency’s subways, buses and commuter railroads. | https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/ny-mta-letter-response-congress-subway-shooting-cameras-20220503-khhls7wvjbcmzpmciiv426djni-story.html | 2022-05-04T00:11:01Z | https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/ny-mta-letter-response-congress-subway-shooting-cameras-20220503-khhls7wvjbcmzpmciiv426djni-story.html | false | 2 |
Amber Heard endured multiple acts of violence and sexual abuse at the hands of Johnny Depp, a forensic psychologist has said.
Dr Dawn Hughes said that the acts of sexual violence, which she graphically detailed to the court, were often a result of the actor’s “drug fuelled rage”.
Mr Depp is suing his former partner for libel over a 2018 article she wrote in The Washington Post, which his lawyers say falsely implies he physically and sexually abused her.
The actor has denied all accusations of abuse against his former partner.
Dr Hughes, an expert on interpersonal violence and traumatic stress, said multiple incidents had occurred in which Mr Depp had “penetrated” Ms Heard in “moments of dominance”.
The court heard that Dr Hughes had interviewed Ms Heard multiple times for a total of 29 hours, in which the Aquaman star had reported multiple incidents of violence to her.
“There was a number of incidents of sexual violence reported in this relationship,” she said.
“These are documented early on…where when Mr Depp was drunk or high he threw her on the bed, ripped off her nightgown and tried to have sex with her.
“There were times when he forced her to give him oral sex when he was angry, these weren’t in loving moments they were angry moments, moments of dominance, moments of him trying to get control over her.”
Dr Hughes then described multiple instances of sexual violence to the court, including one where the actor had performed a “cavity search” of Ms Heard in an attempt to look for drugs.
“These incidents often happened in a drug-fuelled rage,” she said.
Dr Hughes said an incident in Australia in March 2015 was “one of the most severe instances of sexual violence that Ms Heard had to endure”.
“When he was beating her and choking her and telling her ‘I’m going to fucking kill you…I hate you’…when he grabbed a bottle that was on the bar and penetrated her with that bottle,” she said.
She added that Ms Heard had later reported to her that she had gone “outside of her body” during the incident and thought “I hope it’s not the broken bottle”.
Ms Heard looked visibly distressed in the courtroom as the incidents were described.
Dr Hughes’ testimony contradicts previous testimony from Shannon Curry, a forensic psychologist hired by Mr Depp, who said Ms Heard had not shown signs of PTSD and had displayed signs of two personality disorders.
Dr Hughes also disputed that Ms Heard suffered from personality disorders.
She is the first witness to be brought by Ms Heard’s legal team, after Mr Depp’s lawyers rested their case earlier on Tuesday.
Ms Heard’s team applied to have the case dropped, but the motion was denied by judge Penney Azcarate, who said the standard for dismissing a case at this point in the trial was extremely high.
Ms Heard is also expected to take the stand in the trial, which is taking place at the Fairfax County District Courthouse in Virginia, and is expected to last a total of seven weeks. | https://www.shropshirestar.com/news/uk-news/2022/05/04/amber-heard-subjected-to-sexual-violence-by-johnny-depp-says-psychologist/ | 2022-05-04T00:12:21Z | https://www.shropshirestar.com/news/uk-news/2022/05/04/amber-heard-subjected-to-sexual-violence-by-johnny-depp-says-psychologist/ | true | 13 |

LOS ANGELES (AP) — From the stadium to the sea, the Los Angeles Dodgers unveiled plans Tuesday for this summer's MLB All-Star Game, the franchise's first time as host in 42 years.
Dodger Stadium had been scheduled as the site in 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic shortened the schedule and the game was canceled. Last year's game was played in Denver.
The stadium, LA Live in downtown Los Angeles and the Santa Monica Pier located 18 miles west of Chavez Ravine will be the backdrops for events starting July 15.
"No city and no city's fans have supported their team like the Dodgers' fans have,” team President Stan Kasten said. “They are hungry for this game and they are very excited that we are finally going to have it.”
The All-Star Game is July 19.
“I hope I make it,” said Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw, an eight-time All-Star. “All the road teams that come in and get to play here, they say what a great place Dodger Stadium is. We're excited to share it.”
Capitalizing on the 42 years since they hosted, the Dodgers will be honoring Jackie Robinson, who wore No. 42 when he broke baseball's color barrier with the franchise 75 years ago. His widow, Rachel, turns 100 on the day of the All-Star Game.
“There's a lot of opportunity that came from Jackie and all the other players that kind of came through,” Dodgers right fielder Mookie Betts said.
The Futures Game and the celebrity softball game will be played on a Saturday for the first time.
The Home Run Derby is July 18, the same day workouts will be held.
Play Ball Park will be set up at LA Live featuring baseball and softball, music and a red carpet for the All-Star players and their families to strut before being shuttled to Dodger Stadium. Some indoor events will be at the nearby convention center.
The MLB draft begins Sunday night on the outdoor plaza at LA Live.
From Friday through Sunday at the Santa Monica Pier and nearby beach, fans can attend free events that include instructional youth baseball and softball, a daily yoga class and baseball-themed sand sculptures. Batting and pitching cages will be set up on the pier. MLB will join Heal the Bay to stage a beach cleanup on July 16.
The Dodgers last hosted the All-Star Game in 1980, when they had four selections: Steve Garvey, Davey Lopes, Bill Russell and Jerry Reuss, who was the winning pitcher. The National League beat the American League, 4-2. Future Dodgers pitching coach Rick Honeycutt was an AL reliever.
The Dodgers first hosted the game in 1959 when they played at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum after moving to the West Coast from Brooklyn. Dodger Stadium, third-oldest in the majors, didn't open until 1962.

Chef Dominique Ansel Is Baking Up a Fresh Batch of Cronut NFTs
Dip your toes into the NFT pool with Dominique Ansel Bakery’s first digital drop.
No matter what your thoughts are on the Cronut®, its cultural impact has been undeniable. Even though some pastry traditionalists weren’t entirely convinced when they first dropped in 2013, now, this fried combination between a croissant and doughnut can be compared in success alongside other food hybrids like Keizo Shimamoto’s ramen burger and KFC’s Double Down sandwich, and has permanently made its stamp in history.
As the brainchild of French pastry chef Dominique Ansel, Cronuts® became a global phenomenon that started its journey in NYC out of Dominique Ansel Bakery in SoHo (and was even trademarked in 2014). Along with shipping them nationwide, Ansel also opened Dominique Ansel Workshop, a spot specializing in croissants, in Flatiron in 2021.
Now, on the ninth anniversary of the treat’s inception, Ansel is celebrating with a 60-piece NFT collection, which will be available via the OpenSea marketplace, on Wednesday, May 4, at 9 am.
One of the long-standing traditions of Dominique Ansel Bakery is that each Cronut® variation is served for only one month, which calculates to a whopping 109 different flavors to this day. So, as part of the limited-edition series, the virtual recreations will focus on previous fan-favorite flavors including Salted Dulce de Leche; Guava & Orange Blossom; and Burnt Vanilla & Smoked Caramel.
Costing $50 per image, these NFTs are relatively affordable compared to some marked up price tags, which have become common within the trade and regularly crest over $400.
Also, according to the bakery, owners of these special NFTs will be eligible for exclusive perks such as a pass to skip the line at Dominique Ansel Bakery; early access to flavor launches; and invites to special in-person events.
Dominique Ansel Bakery’s Cronut® NFTs will be available via the OpenSea marketplace starting on Wednesday, May 4, at 9 am. | https://www.thrillist.com/eat/new-york/cronut-chef-dominique-ansel-sells-cronut-nfts | 2022-05-04T00:44:26Z | https://www.thrillist.com/eat/new-york/cronut-chef-dominique-ansel-sells-cronut-nfts | true | 1 |

Herro scored 25 points — the second-most he’d ever had in a playoff game — while Bam Adebayo finished with 24 points and 12 rebounds, and the top-seeded Heat ran away in the second half to beat the fourth-seeded 76ers 106-92 in Game 1 of their Eastern Conference semifinal matchup.
PSWA Banquet: Rowan field hockey star Molly Gorczyca honored as ‘Most Courageous Athlete’
Molly Gorczyca was already a field hockey player of high achievement at Rowan University in 2019 when, with little warning, something didn’t seem right. It was then that the native of Hackettstown, N.J., knew she would face the fight of her life. “I played my sophomore semester and we went to the Final Four,” Gorczyca said. “So we were coming off a great season and the spring started. I didn’t feel myself, and I wasn’t sure why. Whether it was finals or stress, I just had some sickness, like mono or something. And I got some blood work done.”

Met Gala: Kardashian as Monroe, a gilded Blake Lively
Kim Kardashian shut down the Met Gala red carpet Monday in one of Marilyn Monroe’s most iconic dresses, a gold-beaded body hugger Monroe wore when she sexily sang happy birthday to President John F. Kennedy 60 years ago. Kardashian had to lose 16 pounds to fit into the dress, designed by Jean Louis and purchased in 2016 by the Ripley’s Believe or Not! museum in Orlando, Florida, for a whopping $4.81 million. “It was such a challenge,” she said. “I was determined to fit it.” | https://www.pottsmerc.com/2022/05/03/morning-briefing-supreme-court-poised-to-overturn-roe-v-wade-u-s-rep-calls-for-more-hospital-beds-embiid-less-76ers-overrun-by-heat/ | 2022-05-04T00:48:16Z | https://www.pottsmerc.com/2022/05/03/morning-briefing-supreme-court-poised-to-overturn-roe-v-wade-u-s-rep-calls-for-more-hospital-beds-embiid-less-76ers-overrun-by-heat/ | true | 5 |
NEW YORK (AP) — All that “gilded glamour” brought in some real gold. This year's Met Gala earned a record $17.4 million, museum officials said Tuesday.
The annual gala is a fundraiser for the self-funding Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The money pays for operating the institute and putting on annual blockbuster exhibits like the current “In America: An Anthology of Fashion” which was launched at the gala Monday night and opens to the public May 7. That exhibit is part of a broader two-part exhibit exploring the roots of American fashion.
The gala is traditionally held the first Monday in May, but because of the pandemic, the 2021 version was held last September. The two galas together brought in $33.7 million, the institute said.
The theme of Monday's gala was “gilded glamour.”
Monday’s gala brought together about 400 guests — some of the biggest names from fashion, entertainment, sports and beyond. | https://www.milfordmirror.com/news/article/Met-Gala-brings-in-a-record-17-4-million-museum-17145903.php | 2022-05-04T00:51:03Z | https://www.milfordmirror.com/news/article/Met-Gala-brings-in-a-record-17-4-million-museum-17145903.php | false | null |

SPOKANE VALLEY, Wash. — Spokane Valley Deputies arrested a man found sleeping inside a Spokane Valley business overnight on Sunday.
According to the Spokane County Sheriff's Office statement, on Sunday. May 1, at about 2:16 a.m., the manager of a shop in the 7500 block of E. Sprague Ave. called the police, reporting a broken door, and a man sleeping in a motor home parked inside the business.
When deputies arrived at the Spokane Valley 7500 block shop, they arrested the man, who was identified as 40-year-old Darick R. Porter. Deputies then learned the complex was shared by two businesses, O.C. Detailing and Lilac City Motors.
According to the statement, the shop manager, who lives in the upstairs area of one of the businesses' buildings, said he came downstairs overnight when he found the front door completely shattered. He told deputies he then noticed the door open of a motor home parked inside where he found Porter asleep.
According to the police statement, during his arrest, Porter told deputies his electric golf cart was outside the shop when he plugged it into an outlet to charge. He told deputies he didn't have a clue how the front door got damaged, but he did notice the door was shattered.
Porter told deputies he entered through the damaged door and saw the motor home parked inside. According to the statement, Porter told police he went inside the motor home after he counted the change in his pocket, and washed his feet. He then put on a couple of clothing items and laid down inside before falling asleep.
Porter told deputies he didn’t have permission to be inside the shop, but he denied causing the damage to the door that, according to the statement it is estimated to be $3,000.
Deputies arrested Porter without incident. He was charged with second-degree burglary, second-degree malicious mischief, first-degree vehicle prowling, and third-degree theft. According to the statement, Porter had also a valid felony Washington State Department of Corrections warrant for his arrest.
Porter was booked into the Spokane County Jail for the charges, and his bond is set on the new charges at $1,000. | https://www.krem.com/article/news/local/spokane-county/spokane-valley-deputies-arrest-man-found-sleeping-inside-a-local-business/293-7f52c128-ba22-4d96-b4b4-2a2dfca8d824 | 2022-05-04T00:58:57Z | https://www.krem.com/article/news/local/spokane-county/spokane-valley-deputies-arrest-man-found-sleeping-inside-a-local-business/293-7f52c128-ba22-4d96-b4b4-2a2dfca8d824 | true | 1 |
Post Malone and his mystery girlfriend are expecting a baby.
The 26-year-old rap star claimed that he is the "happiest" he has ever been as he announced on Tuesday (05.04.22) that his long term girlfriend - whom he has never identified publicly - is pregnant.
He told TMZ: "I'm excited for this next chapter in my life, I'm the happiest I've ever been, and for since I could remember I was sad! Time to take care of my body and my family and friends, and spread as much love as we can every day."
The outlet went on to claim that sources close to the 'Circles' hitmaker - whose real name is Austin Richard Post -said he had celebrated the happy news with a private party for friends and family over the weekend and that the two have been "privately building" their relationship since getting together in January 2021.
An insider said: "They celebrated the baby-to-be with a private party for friends and family in Southern California over the weekend but [his girlfriend] is not someone who has spent any time in the spotlight and two have been happy privately building their relationship, which will soon turn into a family!"
News of the pregnancy comes just days after the 'Better Now' rapper announced that he will release his fourth album 'Twelve Carat Toothache' in June.
In a simple social media announcement, Post shared an anatomical heart emoji on Instagram and wrote: "Twelve Carat Toothache. June 3rd."
The star dropped lead single 'One Right Now' - a collaboration with The Weeknd - almost six months ago, and his manager Dre London previously claimed that the album would be released in May. | https://nordot.app/894380666976059392 | 2022-05-04T01:01:57Z | https://nordot.app/894380666976059392 | true | 2 |
Andrew Vaughn’s lingering soreness in his right hand continues to be a problem and it’s not out of the question it lands him on the injured list, after all. The White Sox outfielder who has been a beam of light in a struggling lineup with a .283/.367/.566 hitting line, team high four homers and 12 RBI and .933 OPS, hasn’t played since getting hit by a pitch Friday night.
X-rays were negative and a sigh of relief was heard, but Vaughn hasn’t come close to playing since.
He’s tentatively penciled into manager Tony La Russa’s lineup for Wednesday when the Sox play the second scheduled game of a two-game series against the Cubs but if he can’t go, La Russa suggested he won’t go with the team for a three-game series in Boston.
“That’s a really good question,” La Russa said of a potential Vaughn appearance at Fenway Park. “A lot depends on how he looks [Wednesday] because if he’s not good tomorrow, it’s a day I plan to play him, then you count the number of days he hasn’t played.”
The maximum a 10-day IL stint can be backdated is three days.
“He’s sore, he’s getting better, but it’s the kind of thing where he tries to swing sore, might do something unnatural and make it sore,” La Russa said. “But I wouldn’t even pinch-hit him [Tuesday].
“But you get whacked in that part, anywhere in that wrist and hand and you know the ABCs of that ... we’re just lucky nothing is broken.”
Robert sits one out
After playing four straight days after returning from a tweaked right groin, Luis Robert was held from the lineup. Playing him six days in a row to the off day Thursday was considered, but on a cold, damp night, it seemed to make sense. La Russa said Robert would be available late in the game.
“We debated it a lot, he’s starting to swing good,” La Russa said.
“The track is going to be a little thick out there and no regrets this way.”
La Russa joked that both of his arms were broken from being twisted by Robert, who wanted to play.
“Try to be sensible,” La Russa said. “He’s one of the guys that keys everything we do defensively and offensively. But it’s a long season.”
Baby, it’s cold outside
The Sox, who played in Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland and Minneapolis during a frosty month of April, noticed a forecast in the 70s and mid 60s for their home stand against the Guardians and Yankees next week.
“It will be very welcome,” Gavin Sheets said. “We’re excited for some good weather. A little sunshine will go a long way for us soon, hopefully.”
The Sox have scored four runs or more only four times and hit multiple homers four times.
“In some sunshine the ball will be flying a little better,” Sheets said.
They can only hope.
“We’ve seen it a lot,” Sheets said. “We hit some balls we thought we got that weren’t going anywhere. And when this weather warms up the ball will start carrying for us, too.” | https://chicago.suntimes.com/white-sox/2022/5/3/23056025/andrew-vaughns-sore-hand-a-lingering-problem-for-white-sox | 2022-05-04T01:02:22Z | https://chicago.suntimes.com/white-sox/2022/5/3/23056025/andrew-vaughns-sore-hand-a-lingering-problem-for-white-sox | false | 1 |
17 killed in road accident in western Ukraine, President Zelensky condemns
A bus collided with a fuel truck in western Ukraine on Tuesday, killing at least 17 people, authorities said, piling further misery on the war-torn country.
In his daily address to the nation late Tuesday, President Volodymyr Zelensky said a "terrible road accident" had taken place in the western Rivne region.
"A bus, a car and a fuel truck collided. As of now, there are already 17 dead, but there may be more victims," Zelensky said, expressing condolences to those who lost loved ones in the accident.
The accident did not appear to be directly linked to Russia's war against Ukraine, which is in its third month, and Zelensky did not mention any connection in his address.
In recent weeks, Russia has been focusing its attacks on southern and eastern Ukraine, while occasionally also striking sites in western regions. | https://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/17-killed-in-road-accident-in-western-ukraine-president-zelensky-condemns-101651622274755-amp.html | 2022-05-04T01:04:48Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/17-killed-in-road-accident-in-western-ukraine-president-zelensky-condemns-101651622274755-amp.html | false | 3 |

Nick Moynihan
President, Quality Fleet Service Inc.; Age: 37
Nick Moynihan believes success comes to those who aren’t afraid of hard work.
Since childhood, Moynihan had an interest and an ability to fix mechanical things. At age 20, while working as a fleet mechanic, he bought a business that was about to close. Included in the sale were two trucks — only one worked — and a list of a dozen customers. When he reached out to the customers, all but two doubted this young man could handle their business.
“It was always my plan to go out on my own,” he said. “When the opportunity came at age 20, I thought, ‘even if I fail, I can recoup the lost years.’”
Mobile service for industrial fleets is a niche business, and servicing heavy equipment in the field presents its own set of challenges. That’s why Moynihan put in the work seven days a week at all hours to establish and grow his business.
“I had two choices: either get it done, or my customers would find someone else who would,” he said.
The hard work is paying off. Moynihan is president of Quality Fleet Service (QFS) and oversees two dozen mobile crews to repair heavy-duty trucks and industrial equipment for customers all over New England.
While mobile service is the main part of the business, Moynihan opened a state-of-the-art repair facility in 2016 that employs more than 50 people.
“Visitors to QFS always remark how busy the service bays are,” he said. “That actually represents about one-tenth of what we’re working on at job sites all over New England.”
The crews are so spread out that he plans to open service facilities in Central Conn. and Eastern Mass.
Mechanics at QFS receive certified training to repair any piece of equipment from the major manufacturers. This designation brings in business from area dealers who insist on service that meets the manufacturer’s standards.
QFS has partnered with Smith Vocational High School to teach students workplace skills, and one student is a part-time welder with the company.
“This is our way of introducing the next generation to the business,” Moynihan said.
He also serves on the board for Clinical & Support Options in Northampton because of its emphasis on holistic services to people throughout Western Mass.
Moynihan strongly believes in leading by example and that no one is above any job, including him.
“We have a successful company because we do the work,” he said.

ACCORDING to Abraham Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, human beings’ basic needs are three-fold — food, clothing and shelter. Most people, whether rich or poor, aspire to build or own their own houses or offices. In fact, wealth assessment in Nigeria is done not only in terms of cash at hand or in the bank but houses and other properties owned. Thus, if you own houses in cities and towns across the country, you’re deemed to be very successful and wealthy. Unfortunately, when houses or buildings come down like a pack of cards, killing and maiming its occupants, it becomes a source of concern.
For the umpteenth time, another building collapsed in Lagos on the night of May 1, 2022. It happened at Ibadan Street in the Ebute Metta area of the “State of Aquatic Splendour.” May we not sleep to death. News reports have it that the building, which has been marked for demolition having been discovered to be distressed, gave way around 10:30 pm when many of its occupants were already asleep. It’s another dream cut short for eight people, who were reported killed on Monday night. Imagine, just imagine, that some of them who are Muslims already had high hopes of celebrating Eid el Fitr on Monday but, rather than celebrate Sallah, they have become occupants of mortuary.
It is not the first time such tragedy has happened in Nigeria nay the world. Nor will it be the last. It will be a recurring decimal in as much as malpractice and sharp practices that take place in Nigeria’s building sector are not curbed. There are several causes of building collapse ranging from lack of construction plan, weak foundation, use of substandard and fake building materials, incompetent workmen, wrong building design, non-adherence to building codes, building on flood plains and many more. For me, bribery and corruption also play a critical role in incessant building collapse.
In all the states of Nigeria, including the Federal Capital Territory, there are building regulatory agencies and, indeed, the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development. Before buildings of any sort are erected, the landowners are supposed to obtain Certificate of Occupancy and approved building plans. Unfortunately, because of the bureaucratic bottlenecks in getting the needed and necessary approvals, many landowners start their buildings without approved plans. When regulatory agencies come around building sites to ask workers to stop work, property owners resort to bribing government officials to allow them to continue to build. When they mark such buildings for demolition, bigger bribes are paid to avert the demolition. It’s a hush-hush thing. Once money exchanged hands, while the “Stop Work” mark will not be allowed to be cleaned off, the property owner is however allowed to continue to work unharassed. In my neck of woods, where I live in Abuja, there are many such buildings littering the place.
After sorting Housing Ministry officials and regulatory agencies’ staff, property owners now have to contend with building contractors. Some of these contractors end up doing shoddy jobs either by error of omission or commission. In some cases, it is the landowners that will tell the contractor to manage building materials because he or she does not have much money. Thus, the contractor does as instructed by his or her client by not using sufficient materials as required in standard practice. In many other instances, building contractors will collect money for enough genuine materials but out of selfish interest will end up buying substandard woods, irons, pipes, cables, wash hand basins, toilet seats, sockets, steels, blocks, roofing sheets and other building materials. All in a bid to maximise profit on the building project. I once rented an apartment in Abuja where one can use fingers to drill a hole in the wall due to the substandard products used in building the estate.
There is another category of sharp practices which lead to building collapse in Nigeria. This has to do with property developers who get the needed approvals to build perhaps three-storey buildings but end up building seven on the plot of approved land. The truth is that the foundation needed for a three-storey building is not the same needed for a seven-storey building. In another instance, many abandoned buildings are worked on and completed years after work had stopped on them without any stress test conducted on such buildings. Thus, either while under construction or shortly after the building may have been completed, they collapse like children’s sandcastles.
Back to the Ebute Metta collapsed building story. Acting Coordinator, National Emergency Management Agency, Ibrahim Farinloye, told pressmen that the collapsed structure had earlier been marked for demolition and that another three-storey building on Lagos Street, about 200 metres away from the Ibadan Street incident, has shown signs of distress with part throwing pebbles and falling off. The building had also been marked as distressed but the occupants were deviant. However, the building has been re-sealed and occupants evacuated by officers of Lagos State Buildings Control Agency. This throws up the issue of enforcement. If truly the officials of LSBCA had not been compromised, why should it take them ages after a building has been marked for demolition as a result of distress before such buildings are demolished in a controlled manner?

As far as I am concerned many of the building collapse incidents across the country are preventable if and only if the relevant authorities are alive to their responsibilities and refuse to be compromised. In as much as there are government officials willing and ready to give fake C of O and building approvals for a fee, in as much as building standards could be compromised by greasing the palms of approving authorities, in as much as there are building contractors ready to compromise standards for their clients or milk their clients dry for super profit, there will continue to be building collapse with avoidable fatalities.
The way out is for all those who are connected in the building value chain to follow due process, refuse to compromise standards and prompt enforcement exercises when the wrong things are done. This is the rainy season with prospective flooding in many states, building control agencies ought to be out now carrying out stress tests on many buildings especially high-rise ones and ensuring that buildings that failed the test are demolished in a controlled manner without delay. As the saying goes, a stitch in time saves nine!

Abortion ban immediate in South Dakota if Roe v. Wade overturned
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Dakota News Now) - While the leak of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade is unexpected, South Dakota legislators put a law into place seventeen years ago anticipating this very moment.
It’s called a trigger law, and South Dakota’s will ban abortion immediately if Roe v. Wade is overturned.
”Quite a few states, generally those that are more conservative, republican controlled have these types of laws on the book, ready to go, so that day one they’re able to have the sorts of abortion regulations that they would prefer,” said Lisa Hager, a political science professor at South Dakota State University.
Thirteen states have these types of trigger laws in place already. South Dakota’s would not only ban abortion, but deem it a Class 6 felony to provide one.
”Criminalizing abortion or making it illegal and it not being accessible doesn’t necessarily mean that abortions won’t happen,” said Hager.
It could mean that women will travel to states where it is legal, but Libby Skarin of the American Civil Liberties Union of South Dakota says that won’t be easy.
”In a scenario where we know that abortion is illegal in half the country, and there’s going to be a big demand to provide abortions in states where it’s legal, I think we are going to also see difficulty in people being able to get appointments,” said Skarin.
Skarin believes that allowing states to regulate abortion opens up the door for other restrictions.
”Things like banning people from going out of state for abortions, things like encroaching on surrogacy, things like coming after contraception and making contraception harder to access. There is evidence in state legislatures across the country and debates in the state legislature here in South Dakota that that is the vision many of our elected officials have,” said Skarin.
Skarin also says criminalizing abortion could put women who miscarry under investigation.
“I think that will put miscarriages or people having adverse pregnancy outcomes under scrutiny. I think we could see the possibility of people being arrested and prosecuted because of a miscarriage,” said Skarin.
The relevance of the 2005 trigger law is leading some to question is South Dakota’s opinon on abortion should be reevaluated.
“With these different trigger laws, given the fact that they were passed quite awhile ago, it is useful to kind of get a pulse of exactly what the public and the citizenry of any given state is thinking on this issue,” said Hager.
South Dakota’s trigger law on abortions states that there would be an exception for abortion only if there is medical judgement that it is necessary to preserve the life of the pregnant female.

The bombshell leaked draft ruling that would overturn abortion rights is authentic, the Supreme Court confirmed on Tuesday as “angry” Democrats organized against the potential ruling while Republicans focused on investigating the leak.
Politico on Monday night published that the Supreme Court voted to strike down Roe v. Wade on a 5-4 ruling, according to a leaked draft opinion from Justice Samuel Alito.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday confirmed the draft document is “authentic,” but it doesn’t represent the court’s decision in the pending abortion rights case — nor the final position of any justice. However, Democrats didn’t waste any time, sounding the alarm about the potential devastating blow to abortion rights for millions of women across the country.
Democrats on Capitol Hill are pushing for legislation to protect abortion rights on the federal level, but it doesn’t appear they currently have the votes in the Senate.
“I am angry,” U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren told reporters outside the Supreme Court. “Angry and upset and determined. The United States Congress can keep Roe v. Wade the law of the land. They just need to do it.
“The Republicans have been working toward this day for decades,” she added. “They have been out there plotting, carefully cultivating these Supreme Court justices, so they could have a majority on the bench who would accomplish something that the majority of Americans do not want.”
President Biden’s administration has argued before the Supreme Court in defense of Roe v. Wade — arguing “a woman’s right to choose is fundamental,” Biden said in a statement.
“If the Court does overturn Roe, it will fall on our nation’s elected officials at all levels of government to protect a woman’s right to choose,” he added. “And it will fall on voters to elect pro-choice officials this November.”
Meanwhile, Republicans focused on the leak.
“Last night’s stunning breach was an attack on the independence of the Supreme Court,” U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell said in a statement. “By every indication, this was yet another escalation in the radical left’s ongoing campaign to bully and intimidate federal judges and substitute mob rule for the rule of law.”
“This lawless action should be investigated and punished as fully as possible,” he added.
Chief Justice John Roberts said he has directed the Marshal of the Court to launch an investigation into the source of the leak.
U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, who was a law clerk at the Supreme Court, said on Fox Business, “I hope whoever is responsible for this, not only is fired instantly, but is prosecuted and serves real jail time for violating the confidences of the Supreme Court.”
Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY), the Senate Minority Leader, speaks to media during the weekly Senate Republican Leadership press conference, at the U.S. Capitol, in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday, May 3, 2022. Last night a draft Supreme Court decision overturning the Roe v. Wade ruling that protects abortion rights was published by Politico, written by conservative Justice Samuel Alito it was a seismic shock to the American political world.

Demonstrators protest outside of the U.S. Supreme Court Tuesday, May 3, 2022 in Washington. A draft opinion suggests the U.S. Supreme Court could be poised to overturn the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade case that legalized abortion nationwide, according to a Politico report released Monday. Whatever the outcome, the Politico report represents an extremely rare breach of the court's secretive deliberation process, and on a case of surpassing importance.

CLEVELAND — Tim Ryan is projected to win the Democratic Senate Primary, according to ABC News. Ryan cruised his way to his party’s nomination for an open Senate seat Tuesday and will now take on the winner of one of the most contentious and closely watched Republican primaries in the nation.
You can watch Ryan speak to his supporters in the player below:
Ryan was heavily favored to win his three-way Democratic primary against progressive Morgan Harper, a former consumer protection attorney, and Columbus activist and tech exec Traci Johnson. But he is expected to face an uphill battle this fall in a state that was once a political bellwether but voted for Trump twice by an 8-point margin.
Ryan, a 10-term Democratic congressman who ran a failed bid for president in 2020, has tried to distance himself from the national Democratic Party ahead of what is expected to be a brutal November for Democrats. Campaigning in sweatshirts and baseball caps, he has fashioned himself as a blue-collar crusader fighting for working families.
His campaign released the following statement on his victory:
“Tim is a tenacious champion for working Ohioans: he understands that all work has dignity, and in the Senate he’ll keep fighting to make sure all working families have a fair shot at success. While the out-of-touch millionaires in the GOP primary have spent months leveling vicious and embarrassing attacks against each other, Tim has focused on the issues that matter most to the people of his state and putting their interests first – and those are the values he’ll bring to serving in the U.S. Senate.”

The body of a missing 15-year-old boy was recovered from the Mississippi River
By Amanda Musa, CNN
The body of a 15-year-old boy was recovered from the Mississippi River on Monday, New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell said in a statement Monday.
The mayor’s announcement came a week after the Coast Guard said they were suspending their search for three children — a 15-year-old boy and two girls; 14 and 8 — who were last seen entering the river in New Orleans last month.
The body of 15-year-old Kevin Poole, Jr., was identified by the Orleans Parish Coroner Dr. Dwight McKenna on Monday.
The recovery of his body was “absolutely heartbreaking,” the mayor said in her statement. Poole’s body was found in the river along the Piety Street Wharf on Monday, according to Jason Melancon, a spokesperson for the coroner’s office.
“No parent should have to endure the tragedy of losing a child,” Cantrell added. “Words can never be enough in such a devastating moment, but my thoughts and my prayers are with his family at this time as they will be for some time to come.”
Officials have not said how and why the children entered the water, but CNN affiliate WDSU has reported it appears the children were playing and one of the girls fell into the water and the other two tried to save her.
A spokesperson for the Coast Guard told CNN the force is “ready to assist at the request of the New Orleans Police Department (NOPD) who is the lead agency coordinating recovery operations.”
CNN has reached out to the department for an update on the search but has not heard back.

NEW YORK (AP) — New York Attorney General Letitia James, who has long been outspoken about defending abortion rights, publicly disclosed Tuesday that she had an abortion herself almost two decades ago.
Pregnant as a newly elected New York City Council member, “I chose to have an abortion,” James told protesters who gathered in Manhattan to decry a U.S. Supreme Court draft opinion that would overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling that legalized the constitutional right to an abortion nationwide.
James, a Democrat, said she makes “no apologies” for her decision.
James, 63, won a City Council race in 2003 to begin her political career, going on to serve as the city's elected ombudsman, called the public advocate, and then as attorney general since 2018. Last year, she briefly entered the 2022 race for governor before dropping out; she's now seeking reelection in November.
James has proposed a New York fund to help provide abortions to women who can't access the procedures in their own states, and she has filed or joined other attorneys general in filing friend-of-the-court briefs arguing against some abortion restrictions in other states.
“We will not go backward,” she told the protesters Tuesday. “No judge of the Supreme Court can dictate to me or to you how to use your body.” | https://www.theintelligencer.com/news/article/NY-attorney-general-I-chose-to-have-an-17145960.php | 2022-05-04T01:54:30Z | https://www.theintelligencer.com/news/article/NY-attorney-general-I-chose-to-have-an-17145960.php | true | 17 |

Tue May 03, 2022 - National Edition
The construction industry had 396,000 job openings in March 2022, according to an Associated Builders and Contractors analysis of data released May 3 by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Industry job openings increased by 13,000 in March and are up 60,000 from the same time last year.
Construction workers quit their jobs at a faster rate than they were laid off or discharged in March, with the quits rate of 3.2 percent well above the layoffs and discharges rate of 1.6 percent. March represented the 13th consecutive month in which quits outpaced or equaled layoffs and discharges.
"The March JOLTS data reflect a labor market that continues to be strong and an economy that continues to have forward momentum," said ABC Chief Economist Anirban Basu.
"Despite evidence of project postponements due to elevated costs of delivering construction services, including sky-high materials costs, demand for workers continues to rise. In March, the number of available, unfilled job openings in construction approached 400,000. Indeed, many economic segments registered an increase in the number of positions awaiting candidates.
"The upshot is that many contractors are operating at capacity and expanding that capacity," said Basu. "The construction industry faces a severe skilled worker shortage of 650,000 in 2022, and it is likely that construction wages will continue to grow at above-average rates as contractors compete for talent. That will drive the cost of delivering construction services even higher during the months ahead, a notion supported by the recent decline in contractor profit margin expectations, as indicated by ABC's Construction Confidence Indicator."

When Varina basketball assistant coach Kennard Wyche Sr., a first team All-Metro point guard at Armstrong High in the late 90s, was growing up, he played for his community.
And that selfless approach always has been a central focus of his message to his son, Kennard “KJ” Wyche Jr., a sophomore point guard, first-team all-state honoree and fulcrum of the Blue Devils’ Class 4 title run.
“This is our community, we’re from the East End of Richmond. This is where we’ve always been. This is home,” Wyche Sr. said.
“I always tell [KJ] when I was coming up I played for my community. Play for your community, play for the youth, the little kids that are going to look up to you on and off the court. Be a role model. And that’s the biggest thing.”
Two members of that community in particular are always with KJ when he steps on the court — Jamari Dabney, a Varina football player who suffered a spinal cord injury resulting in paralysis in October; and Jahiem “Jah” Dickerson, a sophomore on Highland Springs’ state title-winning basketball team who was shot and killed in early April.

Wyche Jr. dedicated his season to Dabney and was close friends with Dickerson.
“Every time I step on the court, I do it for Jamari and Jah,” Wyche Jr. said.
Playing for one’s community, Wyche Sr. said, means, in part, playing the sport you love for those who cannot themselves.
“I just want him to look up to his friends, the ones that aren’t here or the ones that are going through something, and just be blessed that God gave you the opportunity to play for his boys,” Wyche Sr. said.
One of the state’s top point guards in his heyday, Wyche Sr. was a first-team All-Metro honoree his junior and senior years, 1996-97 and 97-98.
A 5-foot-9 point guard, KJ’s game mirrors that of his father’s as a pass-first floor general with standout ball handling, court vision and defensive intensity.
“From Day 1, that’s what he’s always been — the ultimate teammate,” Wyche Sr. said.
“That’s the thing we’ve always worked on, just being the best teammate you can be.”
The oldest of three brothers, KJ averaged 11.5 points, 4.5 assists and 2.5 steals for the Blue Devils and stepped his game up to average 13.8 points, 6.2 assists and 3 steals during a dominant Varina playoff run.
“I like to get my teammates involved, and I’m a good defender,” KJ said, adding that his game is built around the defensive end. “But I can score when I [need to], and I’m a leader.”
KJ had a basketball in his hands “from the womb,” his father joked as the two sat in their garage Thursday night, discussing the game they love together over Zoom.
“That’s our life in our family. When he was born he had the Little Tikes hoop in the living room,” said Wyche Sr., adding that one-on-one games between KJ and brothers Kaleb, 13, and Kayvon, 11, have over the years been intense, to say the least.
KJ played his early youth ball at Varina Recreation Center, learning the game among other East End youth before beginning AAU ball with local power Team Loaded in the third grade. His father always has been his coach through elementary, middle and now high school.
KJ played defensive back and slot receiver on the football field for part of his youth and followed Varina’s run to the Class 4 football state title as close as anyone not actually playing in it — Blue Devils quarterback Myles Derricott is his godbrother and lives with the Wyche family.
And slotback-defensive back Anthony Fisher, Varina’s emotional leader on the football field, always has been a big brother figure to KJ. Fisher’s parents grew up in the same neighborhood as Wyche Sr.
Both Fisher and Derricott were key pieces on the Blue Devils’ basketball team as well.
“That group is from our area; they live in Varina. So that was the biggest thing we preached to them was trying to trust the process,” Wyche Sr. said of the connections which proved the foundation of both state championship-winning teams.
Varina became the first public school in the Richmond area to win football and basketball state championships in the same school year.
“They’re all really friends off the court, and that makes a great team when off the court you hang together,” Wyche Sr. said.
“That’s how you bring that togetherness. That’s how they stuck together.”
The Wyche family, like the rest of the Varina athletic community, followed Highland Springs’ run to the Class 5 championship with nearly as much passion as they did their own. Springers athletics director Harry Lee Daniel is Wyche Sr.’s little brother. Kennard’s grandmother raised them both.
Many of the Springers and Blue Devils players grew up playing rec ball together or against one another.
“So no matter if we play against each other or not, we root for each other,” Wyche Sr. said.
“It’s bittersweet when we have to battle against them, but when we’re not playing against them, they’re his boys. ... W
Varina defeated Highland Springs handily, 77-54, early in the season at home. But the Springers returned the favor by handing the 25-1 Blue Devils their only loss in the final game of the regular season at Highland Springs, 68-66.
KJ said though the late-season loss to their fiercest rivals hurt, it ended up helping the Blue Devils refocus ahead of their playoff run.
“The feeling we had after that game, we didn’t want to have that again,” KJ said.
One of Wyche Jr.’s favorite memories from the season was throwing an alley-oop off the backboard to Varina star wing Alphonzo Billups during the Blue Devils’ 61-35 win over Loudoun County in the state title game.
Billups, a four-star recruit, is committed to VCU. His dad played with Wyche Sr. at Armstrong, and the families have always shared a close bond on and off the court.
“That’s my boy. When he plays at VCU I’m definitely going to be there,” KJ said. “We talk about it every day. He wants me to be his point guard at VCU.”
Wyche Sr. said his eldest son is ahead of where he was developmentally as a sophomore, largely because he excels in the classroom with a 3.8 GPA. Henrico County Sheriff Alisa Gregory is Wyche Sr.’s sister.
“His little brothers are coming up behind him, and he’s got to set the standard for them,” Wyche Sr. said, adding that Kaleb and Kayvon are standout basketball and/or football players as well.
“If we don’t have the grades, we don’t bounce no ball.”
Of KJ’s potential on the court, “the sky’s the limit,” Wyche Sr. said. People talk about KJ’s height being a hindrance, but “you can’t measure a heart.”
“I always tell him, when you walk on that court, you’re the best player out there, I don’t care who you’re playing against,” Wyche Sr. said with a strong note of pride in his voice as he glanced sideways at his eldest son.
“When I was growing up, I didn’t have what he has now. He knows the rules. As long as he does his schoolwork, don’t be with the riff raff, don’t go the wrong way, he gets what he wants as long as he’s doing the right thing.” | https://richmond.com/sports/high-school/varina-basketballs-kj-wyche-and-father-coach-kennard-wyche-sr-play-for-their-community/article_5d005be7-63fd-5364-a451-fe4db097812f.html | 2022-05-04T02:13:54Z | https://richmond.com/sports/high-school/varina-basketballs-kj-wyche-and-father-coach-kennard-wyche-sr-play-for-their-community/article_5d005be7-63fd-5364-a451-fe4db097812f.html | true | 1 |

Poor reflective materials blamed for road accidents
Wednesday May 04 2022Summary
- The use of substandard retro-reflective materials has been blamed for the rising cases of road accidents in East Africa.
- Some of the retro-reflective materials include chaperone, reflectors and road signage that are used to enhance visibility on the roads and curb accidents.
The use of substandard retro-reflective materials has been blamed for the rising cases of road accidents in East Africa.
The National Transport Safety Authority (NTSA) said motor vehicle dealers and manufacturers must use proper and quality materials to minimise accidents associated with long-distance trucks and heavy commercial vehicles.
“We have those very dangerous rear-end accidents due to vehicles stalling on the road. Other road users are unable to detect a stalled vehicle promptly because there is nothing to warn them,” said Joel Opere, the deputy director Motor Vehicle Inspection at NTSA.
“Some of these materials are faded and cannot be visible to other roads.”
He said quality and proper materials must be used to enhance visibility on the roads.
Mr Opere, who is also the chairman of the technical committee on the transportation of dangerous goods and hazardous components in Kenya and the East Africa Community, warned motorists against using low-cost reflective materials.
Some of the retro-reflective materials include chaperone, reflectors and road signage that are used to enhance visibility on the roads and curb accidents.
“Those transporting LPGs should have these retro-reflective materials to enable other road users know the size of the vehicle or the kind of dangerous goods they carrying, whether inflammable solids or liquids or explosive material used in mining or radio-active materials,” he said during the road safety workshop that brought together officials from the traffic department, Kenya National Highways Authority (Kenha), Kenya Bureau of Standards (Kebs) and other transport stakeholders in Eldoret town.
“We have had accidents due to trucks stalled on the roads and because of poor visibility other users ram on these vehicles due to lack of retro-reflective materials.
“We have had accidents in the past, for instance in the sugar belt region, tractors transporting sugar cane, get stalled, there is no any retro-material material on the tractor hence we have had an accident,” he said.
The official noted that last year Kenya adopted the East African standards to guide on classification, packaging and transportation of hazardous goods across the borders.
Mr Opere revealed that Kenya has adopted standards such as KS EAS 949, KS EAS 950, KS EAS 951 and KS EAS 952 that stipulate on the proper usage of the retro-reflective materials.
“This used to be a gap but right now we have standards in place. However, what remains is the implementation and enforcement of these standards,” explained the official.
Kenya Bureau of Standards (KeBs) North regional manager Vincent Cheruiyot said that the lack of use of protective and reflective gear was blamed for high deaths due to accidents in the country compared to other countries in the region.
“From data across from Africa, whenever there is high usage of these PPEs, the road accidents are low. It is important for them to use them because they will save lives,” added Mr Cheruyoit.

It’s no secret that finding a home in a hot housing market has presented plenty of challenges. Homebuyers aren't just dealing with limited inventory, they're also up against competitive offers and rising interest rates. But, one family pressed on.
In fact, they found a new strategy to find a home, opening the door to possibilities.
Ryan Rochford has been house hunting in Florida for his family of four. It's been a difficult search.
"We've learned to be kind of cold about it and not get too attached to anything," Rochford said. "Buyers do not have the same leverage, and for that, I guess they would need to let go of their traditional ways."
His family moved to the Jupiter area from Canada four years ago. They recently decided to buy a home in the midst of the fast-moving market.
"It's been no surprise, like everybody else," Rochford said. "It's quite shocking to see how much the prices have increased."
He stayed open to several options.
"There's many different recipes that can work for us, and a condo is one of them," Rochford said.
He's been fine-tuning his strategy along the way.
"We've had to waive financing," Rochford said. "We've learned that people waive inspections."
WATCH: Real estate agent shares home-buying advice
Andrew Levy, a real estate agent, has guided Rochford through the homebuying process.
"It's an arch seller's market. Sellers have an extreme amount of power, an extreme amount of leverage to really call all the shots," Levy said.
Levy believes buyers find the most success when waving the financing contingency.
"If it under appraises, the buyer has to make a decision," Levy said. "They have to either increase their deposit or they have to increase their sale price."
Rochford eventually waived the financing contingency on a Palm Beach Gardens home. That strategy worked.
"It went under contract with someone else, it didn't work out, so they came back because we were the most competitive," Rochford said. "We were the strongest non-cash offer."
His advice to homebuyers is to be flexible and stay patient through the process.
"Each time we weren't successful on a property, we started to tweak the strategy until it worked, and we just did it," Levy said.
The Rochford family said they found more success when they broadened their search and looked outside of their current school zone.

MUMBAI :
Insurance behemoth Life Insurance Corp. of India (LIC) has reposed faith in domestic equities in the last quarter of FY22 (Q4FY22) ahead of its mega public market debut that opens today.
The state-run insurer’s ownership by value across 279 NSE-listed companies, where its holding is more than 1%, rose to 3.83% in the March quarter, against 3.67% in December, according to data from primeinfobase.com. It saw a marginal dip in ownership in Q3. In value terms, it reached a new high of ₹9.89 trillion in the quarter, clocking a sequential rise of 3.75%.

LIC’s holdings went up in 83 companies quarter-on-quarter (q-o-q). Stocks of these companies saw an average decline of 5.92% during the same period. On the flip side, LIC trimmed holdings in 81 NSE-listed firms, whose average share price rose by nearly 4%, the analysis showed.

The stock markets wobbled in the last quarter on weak global cues, a rise in uncertainty due to inflation and geopolitical tensions. “Historically, LIC has been a contrarian investor. In the January-March quarter, there were periods of deep corrections. Going by that precedent, they could have raised stakes. Also, their share (by value of the market) could have gone up as foreign investors reduced their stakes," said Pranav Haldea, managing director, Prime Database Group.
The top holdings of the state-run insurer include 49.2% stake in IDBI Bank, 45.2% stake in LIC Housing Finance and 15.8% stake in ITC as of March. Some of the companies where it has significantly raised stakes in the past two quarters include Bharat Petroleum, Mahanagar Gas, and Tata Consumer Products. The ones that lost favour include Hindustan Aeronautics and Hindustan Copper.
LIC’s increase in stake lifted the overall share of domestic insurance companies in NSE-listed companies to 4.99% in Q4FY22 compared with 4.79% in the previous quarter. LIC commands the lion’s share of investments in equities by insurance companies (77%). A total of 21 insurance companies (ones holding greater than 1%) are invested in companies listed on NSE.
Further, the overall share of domestic institutional investors (DIIs), which includes domestic mutual funds, insurance companies, banks, financial institutions, and pension funds rose to 13.7% from 13.21% in Q3FY22. Besides, in value terms, the holding of DIIs also rose to an all-time high of ₹35.35 trillion, registering an increase of 3.05% q-o-q. | https://www.livemint.com/market/stock-market-news/lic-raises-stakes-in-companies-ahead-of-mega-market-debut/amp-11651600524460.html | 2022-05-04T02:24:00Z | https://www.livemint.com/market/stock-market-news/lic-raises-stakes-in-companies-ahead-of-mega-market-debut/amp-11651600524460.html | false | 1 |

Morgan Marietta, UMass Lowell
(THE CONVERSATION) Draft opinions circulated among Supreme Court justices are meant to allow for deliberation and editing before a final version is released. They are not the last word, nor ready for public reaction.
But on the evening of May 2, 2022, Politico published a bombshell: a leaked draft of an opinion, written by Justice Samuel Alito, that overturns Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey – the two rulings that gave constitutional protection to the abortion right.
While the final text of the opinion in the case of Dobbs v. Jackson may be somewhat different, the meaning of the current draft is clear. First, the powers of individual states to determine whether abortions are legally available are increasing. Second, the Supreme Court’s barriers for overruling a precedent are decreasing.
State by state voting
Under American constitutional democracy, many decisions are made by majority rule, accomplished through elections. This applies to routine regulations like drug laws or speed limits.
But other decisions are beyond the reach of majorities and protected by individual rights guaranteed under the Constitution. Under Roe v. Wade, the abortion decision fell into the category of rights.
But the leaked draft opinion moves abortion from being a constitutionally guaranteed right to an act whose legality is determined by state laws.
That means it falls under majority rule, determined by the citizens of each state through their elected state legislators. Alito is saying that when the Constitution does not recognize a clear right, the people must elect representatives that share their view rather than appeal to courts.
The Alito draft repeats its core holding several times: The right recognized in Roe v. Wade “has no basis in the Constitution’s text or in our Nation’s history.”
The court that decided Roe, Alito writes, “usurped the power to address a question of profound moral and social importance that the Constitution unequivocally leaves to the people.” Therefore, “it is time to heed the Constitution and return the issue of abortion to the people’s elected representatives.”
Is there a constitutional right?
Roe in 1973 and Casey in 1992 determined the right to an abortion was found in a combination of protections recognized by the Constitution.
These include the Fourth Amendment’s protections against state intrusion, and the Ninth Amendment’s recognition of non-enumerated rights, or “others retained by the people.” The most prominent justification in those rulings is the Fourteenth Amendment’s protection against deprivation of “life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.” Roe grounded the abortion right in a broader right of privacy, while Casey added an emphasis on reproductive autonomy and bodily integrity.
In Alito’s view, Roe “was remarkably loose in its treatment of the constitutional text. It held that the abortion right, which is not mentioned in the Constitution, is part of a right to privacy, which is also not mentioned.” His draft concludes that Roe’s “message seemed to be that the abortion right could be found somewhere in the Constitution and that specifying its exact location was not of paramount importance.”
The standard the Supreme Court has employed to recognize a right not specifically stated in the Constitution’s text has been whether it is “deeply rooted in this Nation’s history and tradition.” Alito’s draft demands historical evidence of political assertions, judicial rulings or public laws that demonstrate the existence of the right.
But Alito’s review of the history argues that the opposite is the case: There is no evidence of an established right and there are, instead, many examples of public restrictions. A 30-page appendix lists all of the state laws outlawing or regulating abortion passed between 1825 and 1952. He concludes that “until the latter part of the 20th century, there was no support in American law for a constitutional right to obtain an abortion. Zero. None.”
An important part of the draft ruling focuses on the question of who has the power to determine prevailing social facts as well as protected legal principles.
At what point a fetus becomes a person – and as such a holder of rights – is a long-standing dispute at the heart of the abortion debate. This is a crucial aspect of the conflict because a woman’s rights to autonomy and liberty may be limited if other rights held by other persons are involved. But it has not been clear who has the power to make that determination.
Roe – 50 years ago – and Casey – 30 years ago – said that the court should set a national standard for recognizing fetal personhood. Casey established viability at around 24 weeks, or the point at which fetal life is deemed to be self-sustaining outside the womb, as the point at which a state could recognize fetal rights and therefore restrict abortion.
But Alito argues that this specific standard “makes no sense” and that the previous rulings “provided no principled defense of the viability line.”
So Alito puts the decision about when a fetus becomes a person clearly in the hands of the elected representatives of each state: “In some states, voters may believe that the abortion right should be even more extensive than the right that Roe and Casey recognized. Voters in other states may wish to impose tight restrictions based on their belief that abortion destroys an ‘unborn human being.’”
A weakened standard for overruling precedent
The Supreme Court is reluctant to discard its previous rulings, following precedent unless there is a substantial reason to repudiate the old reasoning.
For 30 years, the Casey ruling upholding Roe has been considered the “precedent on precedent.” It established four considerations for the legitimate discarding of a previous decision: The ruling misunderstood the Constitution; it proved to be unworkable in practice; new facts had emerged; and whether or not citizens had shaped their life decisions grounded in the ruling, what is known as “reliance interests.”
[Over 150,000 readers rely on The Conversation’s newsletters to understand the world. Sign up today.]
In overturning Roe, the draft opinion offers a new and weaker standard for overturning precedent. The most significant change is what Alito calls “the quality of reasoning.” Rulings that “looked like legislation,” that offered faulty history, or created standards unjustified by the Constitution can be overruled under Alito’s reasoning. This new standard leads to the draft’s conclusion that precedent “does not compel unending adherence to Roe’s abuse of judicial authority.”
Alito’s draft reverses Roe by weakening the law of precedent. This is likely to open up many other rulings for potential reversal, including on same-sex marriage and affirmative action.
A future of state-level conflict
We know that state legislatures will gain power if the final ruling resembles the leaked draft. What we don’t know is what each of them will do.
Some analyses estimate the number of states that will outlaw abortion at around 25. That would effectively divide the nation evenly into abortion rights states and anti-abortion rights states.
This will no doubt increase the regional polarization and geographical sorting of Americans by culture and ideology. It will also likely create long-term conflict in states that are divided by ideology and partisanship – including large states like Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio. It sets up conditions for this one issue to dominate state elections and partisan battles for years to come.
Some states will likely attempt to restrict their own citizens from traveling, and abortion rights states will attempt to aid other citizens to travel to their territory.
How the Supreme Court will react to such laws is unclear. But what is clear is that the Alito draft will return power over abortion and potentially other issues to the state level, raising the stakes and the bitterness of local democracy throughout the United States.

Pound to Euro Week Ahead Forecast: BoE Forecasts Could Hamper Rebound

The Pound to Euro rate climbed from near April lows last week and may attempt to extend its recovery over the coming days but it would likely take a significant 'hawkish' surprise from the Bank of England for it to avoid succumbing to the implications of any gloomier set of BoE economic forecasts this Thursday.
Sterling rebounded from close to the round number of 1.18 against the Euro last Monday to enter the new week trading above 1.19 although the recovery reflected more the misfortune of the Euro than it did any kind of market enthusiasm for the Pound.
Renewed market concerns about the security of continent's gas supply and economic risks stemming from the spread of coronavirus containment measures in China each weighed heavily again on the European single currency last week, helping to stem an earlier slide in the Pound-to-Euro rate along the way. (Set your FX rate alert here).
But the danger is now that any further recovery becomes stifled by Thursday’s updated economic outlook and inflation forecasts from the BoE, which are likely to further contradict market expectations for Bank Rate to rise from 0.75% to more than 2% before the curtain closes on 2022.
“The large upward shift in markets' expectations for Bank Rate since the MPC's last set of forecasts in February also will compel the MPC to revise down its main projection for GDP growth,” says Samuel Tombs, chief UK economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics.

“We think it is extremely unlikely that the MPC will validate the current path for Bank Rate envisaged by markets at this meeting, either with its new forecasts, or its comments in the minutes,” Tombs added in a research note last week.
The BoE is widely expected to lift Bank Rate to a post-financial crisis high of 1% on Thursday but has said repeatedly of late that the squeeze on household incomes will reduce inflation sharply over the coming years, implying that interest rates may not need to rise as far as markets expect later in 2022.
Meanwhile, Governor Andrew Bailey said twice in April that the bank will have to walk a tightrope when judging how much further UK interest rates might need to be raised in order to bring down an inflation rate that reached 7% in March.
“We are now walking a very fine line between tackling inflation and the output effects of the real income shock and the risk that that could create a recession,” Governor Bailey told the Peterson Institute for International Economics while in Washington late last month.

Since then some UK economic figures including the March retail sales report have suggested that the squeeze on incomes may now be cannibalising spending that would otherwise flow to other parts of the economy, which is almost exactly what the BoE has warned of.
All of this could lead the squeeze on incomes to be viewed as a substitute for some of the interest rate rises that have all but been taken to the bank by the market in the months ahead, with possible adverse consequences for Sterling.
But UK inflation rose to 7% in March and more than three times the level of the BoE's 2% target while even after excluding increases in energy and food costs, the annual pace of price growth still leapt from 5.2% to 5.7% in what was still likely a significant development for the bank's Monetary Policy Committee.
“A dovish BoE hike, coupled with the lingering global uncertainty, won't do GBP any favours next week. That said, we wouldn't chase the move lower either,” says Mark McCormick, global head of FX strategy at TD Securities.

“We think fading the highs in EURGBP might be a better way to trade the recent price action, reflecting the extreme GBP discount priced into markets currently. We like fading the EURGBP range extremes between 0.83 and 0.85 [GBP/EUR 1.2048 and 1.1764],” McCormick also said on Friday.
Much depends for the Pound to Euro rate on the BoE's actual decision about interest rates this week, on the possible implications of its latest economic forecasts and the language contained in the statement as well as the accompanying quarterly Monetary Policy Report.
“We do not think that hiking into a cyclical slowdown is negative for the currency—nor is it a problem that is unique to the UK. However, for now, the BoE’s more nuanced approach to balancing the growth and inflation path has negative implications,” says Michael Cahill, a G10 FX strategist at Goldman Sachs.
Cahill and Goldman Sachs colleagues suggested on Friday that clients of the bank consider selling Sterling after downgrading their forecasts for the Pound-Euro rate, which is now expected to slip back toward 1.1627 over the coming three months after previously being tipped to trade around 1.2048.
This is partly due to an expectation that the BoE will continue to push back against market expectations for Bank Rate later this year, which is a risk for Sterling this week. | https://www.poundsterlinglive.com/eur/16893-pound-to-euro-week-ahead-forecast-boe-forecasts-could-hamper-sterling-s-rebound | 2022-05-04T02:29:56Z | https://www.poundsterlinglive.com/eur/16893-pound-to-euro-week-ahead-forecast-boe-forecasts-could-hamper-sterling-s-rebound | false | 1 |

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Mitch Garver and Jonah Heim homered and Zach Reks snapped a tie game with a two-RBI double, leading the the Texas Rangers past the Philadelphia Phillies 6-4 on Tuesday night.
Garver and Heim went deep off Phillies starter Ranger Suarez (2-1) and the game was tied at 3 into the sixth inning. Heim singled and Nathaniel Lowe reached on third basemen Alec Bohm’s error. Reks broke the tie with a pinch-hit, two-RBI double off reliever Seranthony Dominguez, and Marcus Semien’s RBI single made it 6-3.
Bohm bobbled the ball before the throw and was slow to get the ball out of his glove on Semien’s infield hit. Bohm had entered 40 for 40 in total chances in the field since a three-error game April 11.
Bohm batted with two runners on base in the seventh and struck out looking against John King. The lefty reliever then struck out Bryce Harper looking to end the threat.
Brock Burke (3-0) tossed 2 1/3 scoreless innings of relief for the win. Joe Barlow worked a scoreless ninth for his second save.
J.T. Realmuto hit a solo homer in the eighth that made it 6-4 as the Phillies, no-hit on Friday by five Mets pitchers, opened a six-game homestand that includes four more with New York.
The Phillies scored three off starter Jon Gray in the first. Rhys Hoskins hit a low liner that bounced past diving left fielder Nick Solak for a two-RBI double. Hoskins scored on Didi Gregorius’ RBI single for a 3-0 lead.
Gray pitched three innings, allowed three runs and struck out three in his first start since April 19. He was placed on the 10-day injured list the next day with a left knee sprain. He was just 0-1 with a 7.00 ERA in two starts this season. Gray signed a $56 million, four-year deal with the Rangers in the offseason.
Suarez allowed five runs, three earned, in five-plus innings. Garver hit a two-run shot to left in the first and Heim tied it at 3 on a solo shot in the fourth.
BAT SCRATCH FEVER
The Phillies sent out three different starting lineups because of late scratches. Nick Castellanos was listed as the starting right fielder until he was scratched because his wife is expecting a baby. Odubel Herrera then got bumped from center field because of allergies.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Rangers: Placed RHP Albert Abreu (left ankle sprain) on the 15-day injured list.
Phillies: Harper will have his strained right elbow examined this week. He has not played right field since April 16 and remains in the lineup as the designated hitter.
VECTOR, VICTOR
Suarez is the only player in MLB history with the first name Ranger, making it, of course, the first time a Ranger faced the Rangers.
CALHOUN ASKS FOR TRADE
Rangers OF Willie Calhoun, once considered one of baseball’s top prospects, told MLB.com he requested a trade after he was optioned to Triple-A Round Rock. The 27-year-old Calhoun was acquired from the Dodgers as part of the Yu Darvish trade in 2017. He was batting just .136 in 44 at-bats this season. Calhoun told the site: “I just respectfully asked them like, ‘If I’m not part of the future here with this team, is there any way that we can work out a trade or anything?’”
UP NEXT
The Phillies send RHP Zack Wheeler (1-3, 5.79 ERA) to the mound against Rangers LHP Martin Perez (0-2, 3.00 ERA) to wrap the two-game set.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — College football coaches are pushing for changes to NCAA rules to help stabilize rosters depleted by transfers.
The proposals would lift the yearly cap on how many players a school can sign and create designated windows in which a player must enter the transfer portal and retain immediate eligibility.
Support for the changes appear to be gaining "momentum."
Todd Berry, the executive director of the American Football Coaches Association, said Tuesday after a meeting of the group's board of directors that the changes would help bring some order to what has become a chaotic time in college football.
The coaches' proposal would scrap the current cap that limits schools to signing 25 players per year. Those players can be either high school recruits or transfers. The overall scholarship cap of 85 would remain in place.
The problem is, Berry said, a large number of players transferring out can leave rosters well short of 85 scholarship players if only 25 can be signed in a single year.
“We’ve always been real supportive of (the yearly cap) because we felt like that it had some controls to it, but we’re in kind of in an uncontrollable space right now,” Berry said. “For the health and safety of our athletes, not being able to try to get to an 85 number at the FBS level, that's hard."
The proposed transfer windows would require football players to enter the portal from the final Sunday in November until the early signing date in mid-December or from April 15 to May 1.
Berry said both coaches and players would benefit from more certainty.
“When you have an open portal like that, it’s hard for young people sometimes to make great decisions because they don’t know the impacts of their move. They don’t know what their competition is at another school, they don’t know about competition coming into their own program,” said the former head coach at Louisiana-Monroe and Army.
The NCAA changed its rules last year to allow all college football players to transfer one time as undergraduates without sitting out a season at the new school.
That move, along with lifting a ban on athletes being compensate for their names, images and likenesses, has created unprecedented transfer movement in major college football.
The number of FBS football players entering their names in the transfer portal in 2021 was 1,427, up from 896 in 2020, according to the NCAA.
Ohio State football coach Ryan Day doesn't have any concerns filling out his roster, but can see how problems doing so can quickly mount for a coach. Especially, one taking over a program. Coaching changes tend to trigger transfers.
“For some programs, and certainly for guys who are going into new spots, that’s almost an impossible feat if you only 25 spots to fill,” Day said. "So what are they supposed to do?”
West Virginia athletic director Shane Lyons, who is the chairman of the NCAA Division I Council and also part of the NCAA's Division I transformation committee, said he would like to see the changes go through the legislative process instead of a temporary waiver being passed.
“There’s a lot of momentum going into it,” Lyons said of the proposals.
He added that he believes the changes could in place by the upcoming football season.
“You can even put a caveat on it, saying we’re going to lift the cap limit and go to 85 scholarships, and we’re going to continue looking for two years and then come back and revisit it," Lyons said. “And maybe it’s working in two years. Maybe it’s not.”

Bulls legend Scottie Pippen believes he would never be able to guard a force like Giannis Antetokounmpo, comparing him to Shaquille O’Neal.
NBA Hall of Famer Scottie Pippen has become every media outlet’s muse, considering his series of controversial statements and claims off-late. During the promotion of his memoir Unguarded, Pippen did a host of interviews making sensational claims one after the other.
His comments on former teammate Michael Jordan weren’t well-received widely. Pippen publicly accused MJ of being selfish and ruining the game of basketball. In what many believe, Pip’s statements were marketing tactics employed to increase the sales on the bookshelves.
Nonetheless, Pippen has become a source of TRPs, with many media outlets wanting the six-time champion to appear on their show. The former Bulls forward holds the treasure of some of the unheard old school stories never told about the NBA.
During a recent appearance on the TrashTalk Production, Pipped showered his praise on the reigning Finals MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo, comparing him to Shaq, adding that the Greek Freak has more range.
Scottie Pippen gives his flowers to Giannis Antetokounmpo.
At the mere age of 27, Giannis has cemented one of the most inspiring legacies in the league. Many regard the Bucks superstar as the current best player in the world. Standing at 6″11′, Giannis is nothing but brute strength and muscle bulldozing his way through the paint.
His ability to dominate in the paint had many compare him to Shaquille O’Neal, with the Diesel also lending his Superman nickname to Giannis. During a recent interview, Bulls veteran Pippen gave his take on the Giannis-Shaq comparisons.
“I think you have to try to force him (Giannis) out on the floor. When I mean out on the floor, you got to take him out of the paint, that’s your first job. Not an easy task by any means. He’s definitely a dominant player. Reminds me a lot of Shaq, but I’m going to say that he has a bit more range than what Shaq had.”
When asked about guarding the Greek Freak, Pip admitted to being undersized for the job.
“I don’t think I’m the guy that could guard Giannis, he’s too big for me. I’d be more of the help or the double. You would have to put a big body on him, like Horace Grant, Dennis Rodman. He’s a tall order.”
Pippen does make some valid points considering Giannis has widened his skill set, developing a jumper and improving his free throw shooting. On the other hand, when comes to defending the Greek superstar, there are only a few who can stop the freight train from the basket. | https://thesportsrush.com/nba-news-you-would-have-to-put-a-big-body-like-horace-grant-dennis-rodman-scottie-pippen-on-defending-giannis-and-comparisons-to-shaq/ | 2022-05-04T02:52:51Z | https://thesportsrush.com/nba-news-you-would-have-to-put-a-big-body-like-horace-grant-dennis-rodman-scottie-pippen-on-defending-giannis-and-comparisons-to-shaq/ | true | 1 |
Kim Kardashian Responds to Debra Messing's Criticism of Her Hosting 'SNL'
Kim Kardashian has finally responded to Debra Messing's criticism of the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum hosting Saturday Night Live in October. While the reality personality didn't respond to the Will & Grace star's controversial tweet at the time, she did make mention of it during Thursday's series premiere of The Kardashians on Hulu.
"A girl from Will & Grace came out and said she has no idea why I would be chosen as a host, but it's like, why do you care?" Kardashian said. "I don't comment to tear people down, especially another female. If that's what you think, dude, then cool, tune in." Messing initially sparked backlash in September, when she tweeted, "Why Kim Kardashian? I mean, I know she is a cultural icon, but SNL has hosts, generally, who are performers who are there to promote a film, TV show, or album launch. Am I missing something?"
Messing would later address her comments on Tamron Hall the next month, saying she didn't intend to "troll" Kardashian, simply to clarify the circumstances surrounding the Skims founder's hosting gig. "Well, I was not intending to troll her, and you know if anybody took it that way, I apologize. That was never my intention. She is this phenomenon. I mean, you know, she is a cultural icon," the actress said at the time.
The Starter Wife star continued that she didn't understand if SNL had changed its methods of selecting a host, explaining, "I noticed that [SNL] changed the formula, and I was like, 'Oh, does she have a new TV show coming out? Does she have a book coming out? Is she in a movie?' And she didn't have anything coming out. Actually, her TV show had just wrapped. So, I was just confused."
Messing continued she has "been living under a rock" when it came to pop culture. "So, I was like, 'OK. Has she been doing something on the side that I'm not aware of because I've been so focused on activism?'" she said. "And clearly, it was interpreted differently. ... If you know me, and you follow me, then you know that I consistently lift up women. I support women. So, you know, I hope that people understand that was never my intention." The Kardashians is streaming now on Hulu. | https://popculture.com/celebrity/news/kim-kardashian-responds-debra-messing-criticism-hosting-snl/ | 2022-05-04T02:54:32Z | https://popculture.com/celebrity/news/kim-kardashian-responds-debra-messing-criticism-hosting-snl/ | true | 1 |

Qwauntrezz Knight, Alec Anderson Among UCLA Players to Sign UDFA Deals After NFL Draft
The San Francisco 49ers scooped up the Bruins' defensive back while their starting right tackle joined the Buffalo Bills after going undrafted.
The Bruins may have paced the Pac-12 with the most NFL Draft picks in the conference, but the program wasn't done sending alums to the pros just yet.
UCLA football had six prospects selected over the course of the draft's seven rounds in Las Vegas, but there were still eight players who did not hear their names called. That doesn't mean their NFL dreams were over, though, as some Bruins started signing with teams as undrafted free agents right after the San Francisco 49ers made the final selection.
The 49ers stayed active, though, and signed UCLA defensive back Qwuantrezz Knight to a deal within the hour.
Knight started his collegiate career at Maryland, where he played three seasons before transferring to Kent State. After one season in the MAC, Knight came to UCLA in 2020. Knight played another two seasons in blue and gold as his third team's starting striker – a nickel/safety hybrid role – racking up 106 tackles, 13.0 tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks, five pass breakups, four quarterback hits, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 19 games.
Offensive tackle Alec Anderson announced he had signed with Buffalo Bills just a few minutes after Knight went public with his deal.
The 6-foot-5, 305-pound Anderson started in 17 games for the Bruins over the past two seasons and played in 30 games across his career in Westwood. With Anderson starting at right tackle, UCLA has boasted the top offense and No. 1 running game in the Pac-12 since 2019.
The Inland Empire native celebrated his deal with Buffalo with a traditional Bills Mafia table smashing, popularized at the team's tailgates before the trend spread throughout the fanbase.
247Sports' Bruin Report Online reported that former walk-on receiver-turned-running back and special teamer Ethan Fernea had signed a contract with the Indianapolis Colts not long after.
Hula Bowl Co-Assistant Director of Scouting Jimmy Williams reported offensive guard Paul Grattan had agreed to attend minicamps for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Seattle Seahawks, setting him up for a potential contract down the line as well.
Knight, Anderson and Fernea – and possibly Grattan – are now on their way to suiting up on Sundays along with their teammates who got picked in the 2022 NFL Draft. Tight end Greg Dulcich went to the Denver Broncos, offensive lineman Sean Rhyan went to the Green Bay Packers, defensive lineman Otito Ogbonnia went to the Los Angeles Chargers, wide receiver Kyle Philips went to the Tennessee Titans, safety Quentin Lake went to the Los Angeles Rams and running back Brittain Brown went to the Las Vegas Raiders.
Defensive lineman Datona Jackson, linebacker Jordan Genmark Heath, cornerback Obi Eboh and cornerback Cameron Johnson are the UCLA players who remain on the market.

Opinion
Is Elon Musk ringing the bell for a landmark moment for markets?
Stephen Bartholomeusz
Senior business columnistWhen hindsight is available, we might eventually see Elon Musk’s highly-leveraged $US44 billion ($62 billion) deal to acquire Twitter as a watershed moment in what has been nearly a decade and a half of bull markets for shares and bonds.
Usually, when there is a fundamental shift in markets there are transactions and corporate structures predicated on the conditions of the times that are left stranded as the market tides that fuelled their growth retreat. We saw that after the 1987 sharemarket crash, the 2000 end of the dot-com boom and the 2008 financial crisis.
Since that 2008 crisis, the world has been awash with ultra-cheap central bank liquidity, with low – and even negative – interest rates coercing investors into taking ever-increasing risks to generate positive returns.
That phenomenon has been most evident in the US sharemarket, with the S&P 500 peaking at the start of this year almost 400 per cent above its low-point in February 2009. The performance of the tech-laden Nasdaq index has been even more spectacular, soaring nearly 800 per cent between February 2009 and November last year.
Both indices have fallen back sharply this year, with the S&P about 13 per cent off its high point and Nasdaq more than 20 per cent, as it became evident that the US Federal Reserve and its central banking peers, including our Reserve Bank, were about to start backing out of the loose monetary policies they have been pursuing since 2008 and which they doubled down on in response to the pandemic.
A similar story has emerged in bond markets. Before 2008 the US 10-year bond rate – the most influential interest rate in the world – was above five per cent. (The Reserve Bank’s cash rate in August 2008 was 7.25 per cent!)
With the exception of an 18-month period between mid-2016 and October 2018, when the Fed tried to tighten monetary policy in the US before backing off as the markets revolted, yields have trended lower (and, because of their inverse relationship, prices have trended higher).
The nadir for the 10-year rate was about 0.55 per cent in mid-2020 but from late last year (which is related to what was happening to tech stocks at that time) yields on the benchmark bonds started to spike. This week the yield momentarily rose above 3 per cent.
The Fed is about to announce a 50 basis point increase in its policy rate and is expected to foreshadow both a series of similar moves throughout this year that would take the federal funds rate from near-zero to at least 2.5 per cent by the end of the year, along with the start of “quantitative tightening,” or a reduction in the $US9 trillion ($12.7 trillion) pile of bonds and mortgages it has accumulated since 2008 to pump ultra-cheap liquidity into the financial system.
That will be, as the RBA’s rate rise this week was for the Australian system, a landmark moment for not just the US financial system and financial markets, but the global system and markets. Surging inflation rates amid supply-side shocks from the pandemic and systems overloaded with liquidity have forced the central bankers’ hands.
Most vulnerable to rapidly rising rates are those who benefited most from ultra-low rates, notably technology stocks.
That’s because their value is arrived at by discounting their forecast future cash flows to calculate their net present value with an equation whose central input is the 10-year bond rate. As benchmark rates rise, net present values fall.
With tech stocks having the most optimistic forecasts of their long-term prospects, they are – as this year’s performance of the Nasdaq market demonstrates – the most vulnerable.
Musk has waded into the sea of risk and uncertainty the change in monetary policies is generating with what appears more like a vanity purchase than a hard-headed business decision, bidding $US44 billion that’s funded by a mix of debt secured by Twitter’s own assets and cash flows, his own cash (he sold billions of dollars worth of his Tesla shares last week) and debt whose collateral is provided by some of Musk’s shares in Tesla.
As rates continue to ratchet up and liquidity is withdrawn many investors, corporate executives and policymakers who have little experience of what “normal” monetary policy settings look and feel like are going to be tested. Some won’t enjoy that experience.
Twitter is loss-making and had negative cash flows last year but, if the deal completes, would now have to service a far bigger debt load. Tesla shares, which represent both Musk’s wealth and his ability to secure cash and funding for the deal, trade at more than 120 times earnings. While Tesla’s recent financial performance has been impressive, that makes its stock price vulnerable to the shift in monetary conditions.
Musk’s a successful risk-taker but taking on Twitter at such a delicate moment for financial conditions and markets is brave, or foolish. If he can’t dramatically improve Twitter’s financial performance it could end badly for him, Twitter and Tesla shareholders.
Of course, the change in the external settings won’t just affect Musk; the bid for Twitter is just the most prominent and current opportunity to consider how the radical and abrupt changes to monetary policies might have real-world impacts.
Absent a new twist to the pandemic, or a global geopolitical crisis flowing from the war in Ukraine, the course of the major central banks’ policies is set. It is being dictated to them by inflation rates that are the highest in decades and are likely to remain so until the central bankers quash them with rates a lot higher, and monetary conditions that are a lot tighter, than they are today.
That will inevitably have an impact on sharemarkets, bond markets and real economies that have become accustomed to, and complacent about, the prolonged period of unconventional monetary policies and ultra-low rates.
As rates continue to ratchet up and liquidity is withdrawn many investors, corporate executives and policymakers who have little experience of what “normal” monetary policy settings look and feel like are going to be tested. Some won’t enjoy that experience.

The primary elections in Ohio and Indiana on Tuesday stood as the first real test of former President Donald Trump’s status as the Republican Party kingmaker — and he passed.
Takeaways from the races:
TRUMP’S CLOUT
Trump’s chosen candidate, “Hillbilly Elegy” author and one-time investment banker JD Vance, won the crowded Republican primary for U.S. Senate in Ohio, giving Trump a strong beginning to primary season.
Vance, former State Treasurer Josh Mandel, businessman Mike Gibbons and former state GOP chair Jane Timken all vied for Trump’s endorsement, increasingly adopting language that mirrored the former president’s bombastic, populist style. In the end, Trump went with Vance, who in 2016 said the celebrity businessman could become “America’s Hitler” but has since become an avid supporter.
Vance wooed the former president by echoing his bashing of immigrants, skepticism about U.S. military involvement overseas — even in support of Ukraine — and lies about Trump’s defeat in the 2020 election. Lagging in the polls when he received Trump’s endorsement three weeks ago, Vance made it a centerpiece of his closing pitch and vaulted ahead of his rivals.
Vance will face Democratic U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan in November’s general election as they compete for the seat held by retiring GOP Sen. Rob Portman. Trump won Ohio by 8 percentage points in 2020, and the state has swung to the right under his influence. Replacing Portman, a traditional Republican and no fan of Trump’s, with Vance would move the Senate further in the former president’s direction.
POWER OF ELECTION DENIAL
Ohio’s Republican secretary of state, Frank LaRose, easily survived a primary challenge from John Adams, who denies that President Joe Biden won the 2020 election and ran as a full-throated skeptic of modern voting systems.
But Ohio’s Republican primary still shows the power that Trump’s election lies have on his party’s base. An AP-NORC poll last year found two-thirds of Republicans believe Biden was not legitimately elected, even though the contest was free of any significant voter fraud and repeated investigations, audits and court cases have disproved Trump’s claims.
LaRose initially said the 2020 election was secure and accurate, but as the primary neared, he began to echo some of Trump’s talking points. He claimed there were problems in other states and touted his office’s work to combat voter fraud.
Trump endorsed LaRose, a longtime supporter. Since Ohio wasn’t a battleground and Trump won the state easily, the incumbent secretary of state never got on his bad side in the days after he 2020 loss.
In contrast, in swing state Michigan — one of the states Trump claimed to win in 2020, even though he actually lost it — Trump endorsed an election conspiracy theorist, Kristina Karamo. She won the GOP nomination for secretary of state last month. Plenty of other Trump-backed election deniers are competing in upcoming Republican primaries.
RESILIENT GOVERNORS
Trump and his populist supporters have shaken up their party and pushed its incumbents in Trump’s direction in many places, but one weak point so far are governor’s mansions.
Ohio was the clearest example of that. Trump castigated Republican Gov. Mike DeWine for his strict coronavirus policies in 2020, but DeWine cruised to victory in the primary. He will face Democrat Nan Whaley in the general election. Whaley, the former mayor of Dayton, is the first woman nominated by a major party for Ohio governor.
Ohio is not the only place where a GOP governor is well positioned against a primary challenger. Idaho’s Brad Little has a strong fundraising advantage against his conservative opponent, Lt. Gov. Janice McGeachin. In Georgia, Gov. Brian Kemp is a strong favorite against former Sen. David Perdue, whom Trump recruited to punish Kemp for not supporting his election lies and for certifying Biden’s victory in the state.
Governors are helped by their incumbency, the wide range of popular conservative policies they can announce and federal coronavirus relief that has taken the pressure off state budgets. DeWine, for example, outraised his foes by millions of dollars and was able to benefit from, for example, the chip firm Intel’s announcement it will invest $20 million in the state.
DeWine got another boost because his opposition was split among former U.S. Rep. Jim Renacci, former state Rep. Ron Hood and farmer Joe Blystone. Trump didn’t make an endorsement in the race.

Police say they are confident the shooting death of corrections officer Bikramdeep Randhawa in North Delta last year was a case of mistaken identity.
Randhawa, 29, was shot and killed at near the Walmart at Scottsdale Centre mall at around 5 p.m. on May 1, 2021 in what police at the time said appeared to be a targeted incident.
In a update provided Tuesday (May 3), police said investigators are confident that Randhawa’s murder was a result of mistaken identity given the evidence secured to date.
Over the past year, officers with the DPD’s major crime section has conducted extensive interviews and completed over 300 follow-up in an effort to identify and charge those responsible, according to a press release.
The investigation is still active and remains a priority for the department, police said.
Investigators believe that Randhawa’s killers mistook him for an individual involved in the ongoing Lower Mainland gang conflict.
Police say they are confident they have identified the people involved and are working with other partnering agencies to hold those responsible for Randhawa’s murder accountable.
“It is not lost on the investigative team or the Delta Police [Department] as a whole the tragedy of seeing an innocent person caught up in the senseless violence of the ongoing gang conflict that cost a life,” DPD Deputy Chief Harj Sidhu said in a press release.
Anyone with any information about Randhawa’s murder is asked to contact the Delta Police Department at 604-946-4411 or, if they wish to remain anonymous, to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

A bouncer accused of killing a D.C. man outside of a Philadelphia gay bar by punching him and causing him to fall and strike his head, has turned himself into police.
Kenneth Frye, who punched 41-year-old Eric Pope outside the Tabu Bar & Lounge shortly before 1 a.m. on Saturday, April 16, turned himself into police after a warrant was issued for his arrest, according to KYW-TV.
According to witnesses, Pope became intoxicated while at the club and was escorted out by security. Video surveillance footage appears to show Pope dancing in the street.
Then a man, believed to be Frye, strikes Pope, causing him to fall unconscious to the ground in the street. The video footage rolls for two minutes before Pope is dragged from the street to the sidewalk.
Pope was unresponsive by the time medics arrived on the scene. He was transported to a local hospital, where he remained in critical condition until he died from his injuries a week later, on April 23.
The owner of Tabu issued a statement on the incident, telling KYW-TV that the bouncer who punched Pope was “not an employee of Tabu and the incident in question did not occur on our property,” adding that management immediately called 911 after learning what happened.
Pope, an employee of the Monetary Affairs Decision with the Federal Reserve Board, was remembered by friends as someone who always smiled, had a positive attitude, and was generous.
“It’s just really sad,” Keisha Tate-Brown, a friend of Pope’s, said. “I would love for justice to be served because we’re all seeking it. It’s really heartbreaking when you watch the video and you just see how people take matters into their own hands for whatever reason.”
A spokesperson for the Federal Reserve Board told KYW-TV that Pope “was instrumental in helping to advance the Board’s diversity and inclusion goals and helped set up a mentoring program.”
“We are thankful for all of his positive contributions and will miss him,” the spokesperson said.
Frye has been charged with third-degree murder, which could carry a sentence of up to 20 years in prison, if convicted. He is next scheduled to appear in court on May 16.
There is a moment in Ryan J. Haddad's stunning, insightful, potently honest one-person show Hi, Are You Single? in which the actor, after a string of awkward, strikingly rude encounters at gay bars, turns to the audience, and offers a shattering revelation.
"I never had to apologize for the space I was taking," he says of his family life in Cleveland, Ohio.
"If you are born and you have a disability and your family is ashamed of that, or looks down on that, or pities you, or thinks the only value you have is the inspiration that you offer just by existing, then you're going to have a rougher time of moving through the world," says Haddad, who has cerebral palsy, a disability that limits his motor functions and musculature. "Because that's not what we are. And that's not what disability should be."

BOSTON (AP) — Rafael Devers homered, Michael Wacha pitched into the sixth inning and the Boston Red Sox beat the Los Angeles Angels 4-0 on Tuesday night.
J.D. Martinez added a solo homer in the eighth to help seal it for Boston, which held the slumping Angels to three hits in its second shutout of the season.
The Red Sox got nine hits and ended a two-game skid in their first game at home since struggling through a 3-7 road trip.
“We hit the ball hard again. We were hunting pitches in the zone,” manager Alex Cora said. “We got pitches. We put good swings on them. It was a good beginning. We played good defense and it’s good to win the first one of the series.”
Noah Syndergaard (2-1) had a solid start for Los Angeles, throwing 100 pitches on a chilly night and holding the Red Sox to three runs and eight hits over seven innings. But the Angels didn't give him any run support, squandering the few chances they had by grounding into three double plays.
Los Angeles was shut out for the second straight day and third time in four games, getting blanked twice in a weekend series against the White Sox.
Wacha (3-0) allowed only singles by Shohei Ohtani, Mike Trout and Max Stassi. Jake Diekman and Ryan Brasier preserved the shutout until Hirokazu Sawamura took over in the ninth, striking out Ohtani to end it.
"I was able to make quality pitches early on and early in the count," Wacha said. “I was able to get some weak contact and let the defense play behind me. I mean, they were playing great. ... It was fun to watch them work.”
Devers broke the scoreless tie with a leadoff homer in the fourth, driving the first pitch from Syndergaard deep into the seats in center field. It was the fourth of the season for Devers, who has at least one hit in 21 of Boston’s 24 games.
“If I could have that one back, I probably wouldn’t have thrown that pitch,” Syndergaard said.
Syndergaard walked Xander Bogaerts after Devers' homer, and a single by Martinez helped set up another run on a soft grounder by Kiké Hernández that scored Bogaerts.
Syndergaard didn't allow another run until the seventh, when Franchy Cordero and Kevin Plawecki opened with back-to-back singles and Trevor Story delivered a sacrifice fly.
Wacha got a warm ovation when he was pulled with a runner on second and two outs in the sixth. He walked two and struck out two.
Devers’ homer extended his hitting streak to nine games.
THOR POWER
Tuesday was a benchmark for Syndergaard, who missed the pandemic-shortened 2020 season after an injury in spring training led to Tommy John surgery that sidelined him for nearly all of 2021, too.
Syndergaard pitched seven innings for the first time since Aug. 10, 2019, with the New York Mets. He hadn't thrown 100 pitches since September 2019.
“It's super encouraging,” Syndergaard said. “I'm probably not quite where I want to be yet, but I think that's just the name of the game when it comes to recovering from Tommy John surgery and not pitching for two years.”
BIG HITTER
Jackie Bradley Jr., back with the Red Sox after a forgettable season in Milwaukee last year, snapped an 0-for-11 skid when he doubled off the Green Monster in the third. He also led off the fifth with another double. Bradley entered the game batting .147 and was up to .169 after going 2 for 3.
“Whatever he can bring offensively will be great. We know he can do that,” Cora said. ”If the bottom part of the lineup can do their part and get on base like they did today … it’s a different lineup."
TRAINER’S ROOM
Angels: RHP Austin Warren broke his nose before the game even started. The reliever was hit in the face by a ball during batting practice and placed on the 15-day injured list. … The Angels optioned OF Jo Adell to Triple-A Salt Lake and recalled INF Jose Rojas. Adell, the 10th overall pick in the 2017 draft, was batting .231 with three homers and nine RBIs in 19 games. Manager Joe Maddon said he wanted to get Adell more consistent playing time rather than having him share time in the Angels’ crowded outfield. ... RHP Elvis Peguero, recalled from Salt Lake to fill Warren's spot after being sent down the day before, took over for Syndergaard in the eighth.
Red Sox: Recalled LHP Josh Taylor (lower back strain) from a rehab assignment in the minors, although Cora said it’s still unclear when Taylor could be coming out of the bullpen again because of a “setback” during his rehab. “We’re going through testing and all that stuff,” Cora said. “We’ll know more later in the week.”
UP NEXT
Angels: LHP Reid Detmers (1-1, 5.19 ERA) is coming off his first win of the season, allowing just one run and two hits over five innings Thursday in a 4-1 victory against Cleveland.
Red Sox: RHP Garrett Whitlock (1-1, 0.54 ERA) gets his third career start. Whitlock pitched three innings Thursday at Toronto, allowing one run on four hits and two walks over three innings.

Taking it too far! Melanie Lynskey has heard all the fan theories about her hit show Yellowjackets — and she is officially overwhelmed.
“I got to a point where if somebody else wrote to me and was like, ‘I think that Adam [her character’s lover] is actually Javi [who is dead],’ I was going to smash my computer into pieces,” Lynksey, 44 — who plays the adult Shawna on the show — exclusively told Us Weekly. “And people were still doing it! And it’s just not that.”
The Mrs. America actress admitted to Us that while she “loves how passionate people are,” some of the theories about the psychological thriller are a little strange.
“There was also a theory that maybe Adam was my wilderness baby, which is like the creepiest thing I’ve ever heard,” she joked. “Doesn’t make any sense. Like why, what’s the plan here?”
The New Zealand native explained that while she did have to stop reading what people were saying for her own mental health, she is impressed by how creative the fanbase can be.
“I stopped looking at Reddit because it wasn’t good for my brain,” she confessed. “But, I did for a time and it was really interesting. Some people, I’m like, ‘You should be on the writing staff. Like, you have some really great ideas.”
Lynskey told Us that while she has “absolutely no information about season 2” and “has no idea when the cast is going back to work,” she did confirm that the second season is currently being written.
For now, the Two and a Half Men alum is keeping in close contact with her Yellowjackets cast through video message — because costar Juliette Lewis can’t quite figure out how to text.
“Video messages started because Juliette cannot send a text message that makes sense,” she revealed to Us. “She does voice text and it’s so confusing. So finally she was like, there’s this thing called Marco Polo and it helps me in my life. So we get these great video messages from each other.”
Lynskey added about working with her costars: “They are people I’ve just respected for a very long time and we like each other, which is nice. We care about each other. And it’s nice to be going back into an environment with people I’m excited to work with and excited to hang out with.”
The Perks of Being a Wallflower star has another female-centric series in the works; the actress will star as murder victim Betty Gore opposite Jessica Biel who will play her killer in Hulu’s new true-crime drama Candy.
Lynskey described the show as “a killing that took place in 1980s Texas, where one mother and a church-going woman killed another with an ax.” adding that it was “a very shocking act of violence in [a] little community” and a role she felt immense pressure to get right.
“I felt a great responsibility to kind of honor [Betty] to try to be as truthful as I could possibly be without getting to obviously meet her,” the Don’t Look Up actress told Us. “But Jim [Atkinson] and John [Bloom], who wrote the book, had done interviews with pretty much everyone you could ever want to talk to. So there was a lot of information about who she was, and it really meant a lot to me because she doesn’t have a voice in the story. So I wanted to feel like I was inhabiting her fully.”
The role may be heavy, but the Critics’ Choice Award winner told Us that working with Biel, 40, was nothing but a pleasure.
“Jessica’s just so great. She’s so great to talk to,” she revealed. “We talked a lot about our lives, our kids, our husbands, you know, we have play dates a couple of times we went to the playground with our kids. I just like and respect her so much. So it was just a pleasure and I love working with her.”
Candy will begin airing on Hulu in a Five-day special event, where the network will release one episode per day for five nights.

'The Flight Attendant': Mae Martin Talks 'Mysterious' New Character Grace's 'Immediate Chemistry' With Cassie (Exclusive)
In The Flight Attendant Season 2, Kaley Cuoco's newly-sober Cassie isn't quite sure what to make of possible new friend Grace St. James. Ruled out as a target of suspicion when it comes to the possible Cassie imposter, are Grace's secrets limited to a stash of fentanyl-laced lollipops? Actor Mae Martin opened up to PopCulture about their "mysterious" new character ahead of the premiere, hinting at some "good twists" to come near the end of the season.
When it comes to Cassie's initial suspicions that Grace could be secretly sabotaging her behind the scenes, Martin said, "I mean, any new character that enters this show, you're immediately suspicious because you're like, 'What are they hiding? How are they going to affect Cassie or vice versa?'" They continued, "But yeah, of course the version of herself that she's presenting is not her real self. So it's drip-fed through the season with some good twists at the end..."
Suspicion aside, Martin sees Grace and Cassie as "kindred spirits" with "immediate chemistry" that shines on screen. "I think they definitely have immediate chemistry," Martin said. "And I think when you have a secret, that can be quite a lonely thing – and they both have secrets. ...They're mirror versions of each other in a way." Crediting Cuoco's performance with a "fizzling tension" that's "infectious" to play off of, Martin teased an "elevated" sophomore season of the show that fans will be clamoring for more of.
"For me, just as a fan of the show and having binged it in lockdown ... I was so relieved as a fan when I started reading the scripts and it was like, 'Oh, they've turned it up to 11 and they've managed to keep that emotional weight.' And also [second seasons] are always great because the writers are writing with the actors in mind. They know their voices and everybody knows where they sit in the world of the show. So yeah, I think it's elevated if anything." The first two episodes of The Flight Attendant Season 2 premiered Thursday, April 21 on HBO Max, with two more airing each week until the finale. | https://popculture.com/tv-shows/news/the-flight-attendant-mae-martin-talks-mysterious-new-character-graces-immediate-chemistry-with-cassie-exclusive/ | 2022-05-04T04:05:33Z | https://popculture.com/tv-shows/news/the-flight-attendant-mae-martin-talks-mysterious-new-character-graces-immediate-chemistry-with-cassie-exclusive/ | true | 1 |
