Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has revealed he has not yet spoken to his players about Wednesday’s heartbreaking Champions League exit.
City were moments away from securing a place in the final when it was snatched from them as Real Madrid staged a dramatic late fightback in their semi-final at the Bernabeu Stadium.
The Spanish giants struck twice in injury time through Rodrygo – with their first two shots on target in the second leg – before going on to secure a 3-1 win, and a 6-5 aggregate success, in extra time.
Guardiola said: “We didn’t speak. No words can help for what all of us feel. It is just a question of time, sleep as well as possible and think of the next target.
“Tomorrow (Saturday) will be the first day we are together and we are going to talk about who we are as a team, what we have done in the semi-final, how good we have been not just in these two games but all season.
“It is probably one of the moments since I (became) manager I am most proud to be in this club and organisation. Until the last day we are here, we give everything together.”
Guardiola will attempt to rouse his side as they turn focus back to the Premier League title race with the visit of Newcastle this weekend.
Champions City have no margin for error as they lead Liverpool by just one point at the top of the table with four games remaining.
Guardiola said: “After this game we know there are four games of the Premier League left. The best focus and concentration is simple – Newcastle, no more than that.” | https://www.expressandstar.com/sport/uk-sports/2022/05/06/no-words-can-help-after-real-madrid-loss--pep-guardiola/ | 2022-05-06T14:47:09Z | https://www.expressandstar.com/sport/uk-sports/2022/05/06/no-words-can-help-after-real-madrid-loss--pep-guardiola/ | false | 11 |
A MAJOR investment in NHS services in Scarborough began this week with a ground breaking ceremony to mark the official start of a £47m scheme to build a new Urgent and Emergency Care Centre at Scarborough Hospital.
It is the largest capital scheme ever undertaken by the York and Scarborough Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
Enabling works in readiness for the build have already begun, and the new centre is planned to open in the Spring of 2024.
Attendances at Scarborough Emergency Department have increased at a rate of around 5% a year for over a decade and the new build will provide much needed extra space.
It will also mean patients can be looked after in the unit by one team of healthcare professionals working together who will see more patients as quickly and safely as possible. The centre will have its own dedicated diagnostic zone providing CT scans, general X-ray and ultrasound.
Dr Ed Smith, Consultant in Emergency Medicine and Deputy Medical Director at the trust, said: “When the existing Emergency Department opened at Scarborough Hospital in 1985 the annual attendance was 15,000 patients per year. We now see close to 70,000.
"Not only will this new facility function as a hub for the 24 hour a day provision of urgent and emergency care services for the locality, it will also allow Scarborough-based health care professionals to provide high quality care to all our patients in state-of-the-art facilities for many years to come.”
The project includes a two-storey new build combining and expanding the current emergency department, same day emergency care and the acute medical unit. As well as improving outcomes for the frail elderly, it will also ensure some of the most critically ill patients in the hospital are cared for in one integrated clinical ward environment rather than being moved to other wards.
The second floor will house critical care services and will increase bed capacity which will help relieve the pressure on beds elsewhere in the Trust.
The scheme also includes work to address essential site-wide engineering infrastructure which will see huge improvements to the electrical system, ventilation and drainage.
Simon Morritt, Chief Executive, said: “This development is extremely good news for our staff and for the Scarborough community. It will move us forward significantly in the delivery of urgent and emergency services that are fit for purpose and of a quality that our staff and our communities on the East Coast can be rightly proud. It marks York and Scarborough Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust’s commitment to the long term future of Scarborough Hospital and brings urgent and emergency care into the 21st century for the local community.”
The event also marks the launch of York and Scarborough Hospitals Charity’s Urgent and Emergency Care Appeal, which will raise funds to support the extras to enhance patient care and experience and to support staff wellbeing.

Ludhiana: Ahead of the paddy season, a special PAU Live programme on direct seeded rice (DSR) was organised for farmers here on Thursday. Dr MS Bhullar, head, Department of Agronomy, while expressing concern over groundwater situation in Punjab, said it was important for farmers to make wise use of water, which if not used judiciously could finish in the next 20 to 25 years. Urging farmers to adopt the DSR technology without any fear, he said, “The DSR technology saves irrigation water to a large extent and solves labour shortage problem also. The area under the DSR has seen a massive jump in Punjab during the pandemic.” The Punjab Government was also promoting this technique for natural resource conservation, he added. Explaining the nursery raising of rice and basmati, Dr Amit Kaul, agronomist, said, “Healthy nursery is essential for getting a healthy crop. Farmers must go for a certified seed of PAU recommended varieties.” TNS

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — There is a symbol in adoption. It’s a heart around a triangle. It represents the symbiotic relationship and love among a child, birth mother, and adoptive parents.
It’s a deep love that Leia Rosenthal knows very well from the moment she met her daughter, Jorja.
“The next thing I know she's putting her in my arms, and that is a very surreal moment that a mom is sacrificing herself to make me a mom, very, very special,” Rosenthal said.
Rosenthal said that moment is burned in her memory. It’s the day her family of two became three.
“Jorja is very unique child, and she brings me joy every day,” she said.
Motherhood was something Rosenthal always wanted, but her journey wasn’t easy.
“When you're sitting in the doctor's office, and they tell you that it's not going to happen the way you expect it to happen, you kind of get kind of broken down by that,” Rosenthal said.
She and her husband, Michael, went through their options.
“I suffer from female infertility, and when I was not going to be able to carry to term, and my husband, however, has male infertility, he was not going to be able to provide children that way, either, so we knew adoption was going to be the way to go,” Rosenthal said.
However, it’s a process with a lot of parts. For one, it’s costly. The Rosenthals shared their adoption cost $18,000. It is also time intensive.
“The adoption took three years from start to finish for us,” Rosenthal said.
But she said every minute of those 1095 days became worth it on a Wednesday in 2016.
“February 10, is when we got the phone call, and actually, you really never know, when you're going to get the phone call... So, we got off the phone and we just burst out in tears, just jumping up and down,” Rosenthal said. “We were so excited.”
It was a joyous moment for a sacrifice never forgotten.
“What an immense, emotional thing for you to have to put yourself aside and decide what is best for your child,” Rosenthal said regarding Georgia’s birth mother. “And that's the thing I will be grateful for. I'm so grateful for her to do that. And what an immense love that is too. And that just goes to show you how much she loves Georgia, how much she cared for her prior to her being born, how much she was already planning for her.”
It’s that triangle of love. The gift the birth mother gave to Rosenthal and the love she continues to give to Jorja.
“She's kind to me and I love her so much, and she gives me like a lot of kisses, and I want to give her like a lot,” Jorja said.
The Rosenthals used Bethany Christian Services for their adoption. They say if potential parents are considering adoption, it takes a lot of preparation, they need to stay ready, and they advise parents-to-be to increase their village, so the child gets everything he or she might need. | https://www.localmemphis.com/article/life/holidays/mothers-day/dear-mama-infertility-adoption-mothers-day/522-7ac08161-8f1e-4240-a6ef-873b96515514 | 2022-05-06T14:52:28Z | https://www.localmemphis.com/article/life/holidays/mothers-day/dear-mama-infertility-adoption-mothers-day/522-7ac08161-8f1e-4240-a6ef-873b96515514 | true | 2 |
LAUDERDALE COUNTY, Ala. (WHNT) — The manhunt for an escaped Lauderdale County inmate and corrections officer continues, and U.S. Marshals are providing new descriptions for both of them.
On Thursday, federal officials released photos of inmate Casey White’s tattoos. Casey stands at 6’9, weighs around 330 pounds, and has brown hair and hazel eyes. Officials say they believe he is affiliated with the Alabama-based white supremacist prison gang, Southern Brotherhood.
Vicky White, the jail’s assistant director of corrections, who officials say helped Casey escape is described as 5’5 and 145 pounds. She has blonde hair, though she may have dyed it a darker color.
Law enforcement officials are looking for inmate 38-year-old Casey White who was charged with capital murder in the 2015 stabbing death of 58-year-old Connie Ridgeway and 56-year-old Assistant Director of Corrections Vicky White who worked at the Lauderdale County Detention Center for 16 years. Despite sharing a last name the two are not related.
According to a release from the U.S. Marshals, the pair was last seen on April 29 in Rogersville, Ala.
U.S. Marshals announced a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of Casey White on Sunday, May 1, and later a $5,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of Vicky White.
Anyone with information on Casey or Vicky’s location should contact the Lauderdale County Sheriff’s Office at (256) 760-5757. If you see them, do not approach and call 911 immediately. Tips can also be submitted on the U.S. Marshals website or by calling (800) 336-0102. | https://www.wjtv.com/news/regional-news/us-marshals-release-tattoo-descriptions-for-missing-lauderdale-county-inmate/ | 2022-05-06T14:56:40Z | https://www.wjtv.com/news/regional-news/us-marshals-release-tattoo-descriptions-for-missing-lauderdale-county-inmate/ | true | 11 |
This article is brought to you in association with the European Parliament.
MEPs applaud European transport and tourism operators for helping refugees from Ukraine, demand Russia return stolen airplanes and call on the EU to tighten sanctions on Russia.
European transport operators are offering Ukrainian citizens free travel by train, bus, ship or plane and this is highly appreciated, says a resolution on the impact of Russia’s illegal war against Ukraine on the EU transport and tourism sector, adopted by show of hands on Thursday. Transport is a strategic tool for the EU to provide solidarity and support to Ukraine and its people, MEPs add.
They stress that the war in Ukraine has taken its toll on the EU transport sector through rising fuel prices and by disrupting supply chains. MEPs believe that EU transport operators with links to the Russian market should be supported, as they reorient their operations away from Russia.
Aviation and maritime
MEPs are concerned about the severe impact the war is having on the aviation sector, deploring the fact that Russia, in clear breach of international civil aviation rules, has forced airplanes leased from foreign companies to re-register in Russia’s aircraft register. “Such theft cannot be tolerated,” MEPs say, demanding the immediate return of these aircraft to their lawful owners.
The resolution also calls on the EU to further tighten sanctions against the Russian maritime sector and to refuse to allow ships that have docked in Russia on their way to the EU to enter EU ports. In addition, all ships that want to stop at an EU port should be forbidden to re-fuel in Russian ports, the text adds.
Military mobility
The European Council’s decision to drastically cut funds for military mobility was a mistake that undermines European security, MEPs say. They call on the Commission to find a solution to significantly increase the military mobility budget under the Connected Europe Facility programme.
The EU should help member states to develop dual use infrastructure and transport interconnections within the EU, but also with the Western Balkans, Moldova, Georgia and Ukraine, MEPs add, also advocating for the trans-European transport network to be extended to Ukraine and Moldova.
Help tourism to help Ukraine
MEPs also call on EU countries to support hotels and short-term rental services in the EU that are hosting Ukrainian refugees. They ask the Commission to establish an EU temporary financial programme to support tourism companies hiring people fleeing from war.
The COVID-19 pandemic and the current war have shown that an EU Agency for tourism and a European Crisis Management Mechanism urgently need to be established to respond adequately and swiftly to crises of great magnitude, such as pandemics, wars, humanitarian crises and the impact of climate change, MEPs say. | https://europeansting.com/2022/05/06/russia-must-return-stolen-airplanes-demand-meps/ | 2022-05-06T14:57:21Z | https://europeansting.com/2022/05/06/russia-must-return-stolen-airplanes-demand-meps/ | false | 1 |

Jack Harlow has opened up about Lil Nas X, saying that some of the homophobic reactions to the latter’s work shows there’s still much “progress to be made” in hip-hop.
Harlow was speaking in an interview with The Guardian where he reflected on working with Lil Nas X on their 2021 hit ‘Industry Baby’.

After calling him a “boundary pusher”, Harlow added that some of the reaction to Lil Nas X’s work showed there was still much work to be done in hip-hop when it comes to eradicating homophobia.
“The totally inappropriate reaction to [Lil Nas X] lets you know that we still have some progress to be made,” Harlow said when speaking about LGBTQ+ artists in hip-hop.
“And you hear it in passing; there’s still some homophobia going on. But he’s taking the hit that artists won’t have to take in the future. That’s what makes him a hero.”
Harlow’s new album, ‘Come Home The Kids Miss You’, has arrived today (May 6).
The Kentucky rapper previewed the record with the release of the singles ‘Nail Tech’ and ‘First Class’, the latter of which topped the Billboard 200 chart last month, giving Harlow his first-ever Number One as a lead artist.
Made up of 15 tracks, the rapper’s second studio album includes features from Drake, Lil Wayne, Pharrell and Justin Timberlake.
Harlow recently joined Lil Nas X on stage for a performance at the Grammys 2022 in Las Vegas.
The rappers recreated their recent collaboration ‘Industry Baby’ on the MGM Grand stage, where Lil Nas X and his backing dancers dressed in glittering marching band uniforms. | https://www.nme.com/news/music/jack-harlow-opens-up-about-homophobic-reactions-to-lil-nas-x-music-3220163 | 2022-05-06T14:58:39Z | https://www.nme.com/news/music/jack-harlow-opens-up-about-homophobic-reactions-to-lil-nas-x-music-3220163 | false | 2 |
Joe Biden lied to us all when he vowed to 'restore the soul of America.' His deplorable slur against pro-life Americans and political opponents proves once and for all that he is no better than Donald Trump, writes MEGHAN MCCAIN
The bare-chested, Viking-hat-wearing lunatic who stormed the Capitol, barged through the halls of Congress and stood on the rostrum on the House floor has become an avatar for all that is bad, ugly, and dangerous about the far-right.
This Idiot Shaman represents the insurrectionists, radicals, QAnon supporters and extremists who would rather watch the country burn than make any attempt whatsoever to heal the hardline political divisions in this country.
His is also the convenient face for all those lazy people in the mainstream media, who want to blanket stereotype everyone on the right, anyone who doesn't vote for Democrats, is pro-life, owns guns, lives in the middle of the country, doesn’t
watch CNN or works in a job that leaves them sore at the end of the day.
To some in the media, all conservatives are the moral equivalent of the Viking-helmet-insurrectionist.
This blanket stereotyping only adds to the radicalization of the ‘deplorables,’ who already know how much the powers that be hate them.
But never -- and I mean absolutely never -- in my wildest dreams did I believe that Joe Biden agreed with this sentiment or would endorse it himself.
I was clearly wrong.
The January 6th insurrection occurred after Biden was elected but the infamous ‘irredeemable… basket of deplorables’ slur coined by Hillary Clinton had already become a common sentiment for many on the left.
Multiple Democratic candidates running for president in 2020 could barely contain their revulsion with the 74 million people who eventually pulled the lever for Trump.
If you thought that President Donald Trump demonized his political opponents – then what would you say about this? (Left) President Joe Biden in the Roosevelt Room of the White House on May 4, 2022 (Right) President Donald Trump in the Roosevelt room on November 1, 2018
I never understood why anyone would run to represent a group of people that they wished didn't exist.
The very concept of it is not only ridiculous but elitist and arrogant.
When Biden was elected, he said in his victory speech that he ‘doesn't see red and blue states but a United States’ and that he would ‘work with all my heart to win the confidence of the whole people.’
He said that he ‘sought this office to restore the soul of America.’
I remember loving that speech and feeling confident and hopeful that even if I disagreed with the man's politics, he would help heal the country and guide our nation in the patriotic spirit of so many people before him.
He ended his remarks by saying, ‘It's time to put away the harsh rhetoric. To lower the temperature. To see each other again. To listen to each other again. To make progress, we must stop treating our opponents as our enemy. We are not enemies. We are Americans.’
I was lied to and so were you.
President Biden lied to all of us and I feel like an idiot for believing anything he said in that speech.
Want to see the proof?
On Wednesday, Biden lumped together Republicans, conservatives, pro-lifers, sitting Supreme Court justices and Trump supporters as a ‘MAGA crowd’ representing ‘the most extreme political organization in [recent] American history.’
Biden was teed-up and set off by the potential repeal of Roe v. Wade revealed by a leak of a draft Supreme Court opinion.
And here’s the whopper.
In one of the most irresponsible examples of intentionally divisive rhetoric that I’ve ever heard uttered by a president, Biden mused about the future.
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki (above) was asked about this and her answer was just as revealing. ‘We don’t know what they are capable of… ’ she said. Right Jen -- half the country is ‘capable’ of anything.
‘What happens if you have - a state changes the law saying that - that children who are LGBTQ can't be in classrooms with other children? Is that - is that legit under the way the decision is written? What are the next things that are going to be attacked?’
Excuse me? Who in the world has ever suggested such a vile proposal?
If you thought that President Donald Trump demonized his political opponents – then what would you say about this?
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki was asked about this and her answer was just as revealing.
‘We don’t know what they are capable of… ’ she said.
Right Jen -- half the country is ‘capable’ of anything.
I’ll tell you what is deplorable. This irresponsible, craven rhetoric.
The reality is that this new slur didn’t come out of nowhere. It’s almost as if Biden was waiting for this moment.
Earlier this month in Seattle, Biden said, ‘this is the MAGA party now... these guys are a different breed of cat.’
Because remember -- there's no difference between conservatives. We’re all just the guy in the Viking helmet.
This isn't someone saying this on cable news in the middle of the night, this is the sitting President of the United States, who ran on bringing America together.
I know real pro-life Americans.
I am a pro-life American.
And I am NOT in the MAGA crowd.
In fact, Biden himself was against the Roe decision for at least a decade.
‘I don’t like the Supreme Court decision on abortion. I think it went too far,’ he told the Washingtonian in 1974.
In 1982, he backed a proposed Constitutional amendment to undo the decision and let states decide, as the leaked draft ruling prescribes.
He consistently voted against taxpayer funding for abortion.
He voted against late-term abortion practices.
He was, in other words, at least someone who wouldn't demonize fellow Americans who sincerely believe that abortion is a grievous crime against our humanity.
So, what happened?
I know real pro-life Americans. I am a pro-life American. And I am NOT in the MAGA crowd. In fact, Biden himself was against the Roe decision for at least a decade. (Above) A line of pro-life demonstrators watch as pro-choice demonstrators chant in front of an un-scalable fence that stands around the US Supreme Court in Washington, DC, on May 5, 2022
Every single poll shows President Biden and his administration are losing. That’s what happened.
He is losing among demographics that Democrats once thought voted for them by default.
Hispanic voters are abandoning the Democratic party in droves. Biden is historically unpopular and so is his party.
The midterm elections are anticipated to be nothing short of a Game of Thrones-style red wedding for Washington Democrats.
Winning political messages typically don't start with telling people they're evil if they don't agree with you.
By suggesting, without any basis, that they are homophobic, racist, or deplorable because they disagree on an issue of such profound and personal significance that it has divided the country for decades.
I don't know if it hasn't occurred to the snobs and sycophants advising our President, but you must stop demonizing half the country even as you claim to be about unity and civility.
Your party is wallowing in an almost religious dedication to idea that you are holier than everyone else.
Why would anyone repeat the very same mistake of stereotyping, belittling, and insulting millions of voters?
I have no idea other than an insane degree of arrogance.
They should remember that on the morning after Election Day, they will wake up and still have to share America with everyone else. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10789871/Biden-lied-vowed-restore-soul-America-Hes-no-better-Trump-MEGHAN-MCCAIN.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-05-06T14:59:13Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10789871/Biden-lied-vowed-restore-soul-America-Hes-no-better-Trump-MEGHAN-MCCAIN.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | true | 2 |
Doing remakes are never easy. They have to recreate the magic of original and still please the local audience.
Director Padmakumar passes the muster successfully in Vichithiran, which is a faithful remake of his Malayalam blockbuster Joseph.
The Tamil version stars RK Suresh, Poorna, Machi Shalini, Ilavarasu among others. Cinematography is by Vetrivel Mahadevan and music by GV Prakash add more strength to the film.
RK Suresh is a cop, who has taken VRS. He is brilliant in investigations. It’s just by chance that he smells something fishy behind the death of someone with whom he has an emotional connection.
The rest of the story is about how he finds the intriguing facts that led to the incident.
Suresh’s performance is laudable. He is intense and engaging in his expressions. Poorna, has a meaty role to do. She holds the climax portions with her gritty show. Almost all the other characters in the film chip in with their best.
Padmakumar seems to have walked the tight rope well thanks to his cinematographer Vetrivel Mahadevan. He captures intense moments well.
Adding more strength to the proceedings is GV Prakash’s BGM.
A honest attempt, the movie has engaging moments and with apt star cast providing their best on screen. A worthy show. | https://newstodaynet.com/2022/05/06/vichithiran-review/ | 2022-05-06T15:03:26Z | https://newstodaynet.com/2022/05/06/vichithiran-review/ | false | 1 |

This week witnessed fashion’s biggest night, the Met Gala, in its full glory. An array of celebrities attended the event and walked the red carpet in exquisite ensembles. This year, the Met Gala theme was In America: An Anthology of Fashion and the dress code was Gilded Glamour. As is the norm, celebrities displayed their interpretation of the theme with their intriguing sartorial picks. Some of them, interestingly, were actually tributes to the people they admired or America's architectural splendors like the Statue of Liberty.
In this week's Fashion Friday, we revisit some of the most beautiful tributes celebrities paid with their dresses at Met Gala 2022.
BLAKE LIVELY
Blake Lively put forth one of the most talked-about Met Gala looks this year. She arrived wearing a bronze-hued custom Versace gown which was unfurled and transformed into a vivid blue ensemble with a floor-sweeping train. Dramatic is an understatement for Blake Lively’s transforming dress.
The awe-inspiring dress, let us tell you, was Blake Lively’s ode to New York City and its various landmarks, including the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building. The dress-reveal, Lively said, was an ode to the greenish patina that bronze buildings develop over time.
KYLIE JENNER
Kylie Jenner attended the Met Gala 2022 in a billowing white gown by the label Off-White. The voluminous ensemble featured ruffle details and was styled with a baseball cap and a mini sheer veil. Kylie’s Met Gala look, however, was a tribute to the late designer Virgil Abloh who passed away in November 2021.
“Virgil and I were supposed to go to the Met together before it got postponed in 2020. To celebrate V tonight and his incredible legacy truly means the world to me. I’m humbled to wear this dress and honour my talented beautiful friend. We felt you tonight Virgil and love you forever,” Kylie wrote in a heartwarming note on Instagram.
HILLARY CLINTON
Hillary Clinton, who attended the Met Gala after almost 20 years, made a moving tribute to the women who inspire her. She wore an off-shoulder gown by designer Joseph Altuzarra. Her dress featured 60 women’s names embroidered along the neckline and the hem. The names included Rosa Parks, Lady Bird Johnson, and Clinton’s mother Dorothy Rodham.
ALICIA KEYS
Alicia Keys was also among the best-dressed celebrities at the Met Gala 2022. The singer paid a beauteous tribute to New York with her Ralph Lauren dress that featured over 200,000 crystals that were arranged to look like the city’s skyline.
SARAH JESSICA PARKER
Sarah Jessica Parker wore a billowing black-and-white ensemble designed by Christopher John Rogers. It featured a strapless corset-inspired top with a voluminous skirt featuring plaid print. Parker’s outfit, according to Vogue, was actually a tribute to designer Elizabeth Hobbs Keckley who made history as the first black female fashion designer in the White House.
Sarah Jessica Parker showed Rogers a particular design that Keckley had made in the 1860’s. It was the reference point for her Met Gala appearance. | https://www.indiatoday.in/lifestyle/fashion/story/5-celebs-who-paid-beautiful-tributes-with-their-met-gala-2022-dresses-on-fashion-friday-1946312-2022-05-06 | 2022-05-06T15:13:23Z | https://www.indiatoday.in/lifestyle/fashion/story/5-celebs-who-paid-beautiful-tributes-with-their-met-gala-2022-dresses-on-fashion-friday-1946312-2022-05-06 | true | 1 |

Lancashire Wildlife Trust has issued the call in a bid to prevent fragile bird nests on the ground from being disturbed.
Birds such as the skylark and curlew are in “worrying decline” according to the Trust, and often hide their nests in long grass.
>>>What to do if you find a baby bird on the ground
A spokesman said: “Too often an exuberant or inquisitive pooch, wandering or bounding through grass or heather, easily disturbs wildlife and scares adult birds off nests or tramples eggs. And vulnerable chicks can quickly perish if they are left alone for too long.”
The Trust wants leads to be used when people visit moorland, fields, urban parks and beaches.
The campaign is being supported by James Brittain-McVey, lead guitarist of The Vamps, a dog owner and ambassador for The Wildlife Trusts.
He said: “I’ve learnt, as a rescue dog owner, the importance of keeping your dog under control at all times. And at this time of year, it’s especially important to remember that we can all play our part in helping birds breed successfully by keeping dogs on short leads in wild places – especially when so many species are having such a hard time.”
James Byrne, landscapes recovery programme manager for The Wildlife Trusts, said: “Allowing dogs to run wild in nature reserves can be devastating for wildlife, particularly in spring when species are breeding and vulnerable.
"We’re asking dog walkers to be sensitive by keeping their animals on short leads, sticking to paths, and properly disposing of dog poo. Wildlife is already under enormous pressure – let's all keep dogs in check so as not to make things worse.”
Skylarks
According to the RSPB, in the preferred habitat of farmland, skylarks declined by 75 per cent between 1972 and 1996. The main cause of this decline is considered to be the widespread switch from spring to autumn-sown cereals, which has resulted in a dramatic reduction in the number of chicks raised each year.
Curlews
The Curlew is one of our most rapidly declining breeding bird species showing a 46 per cent decline across the UK from 1994-2010 with this figure exceeding 50 per cent in Wales and Scotland. | https://www.lancasterguardian.co.uk/lifestyle/outdoors/urgent-call-is-made-to-lancashires-dogs-owners-this-spring-and-summer-3682998 | 2022-05-06T15:17:23Z | https://www.lancasterguardian.co.uk/lifestyle/outdoors/urgent-call-is-made-to-lancashires-dogs-owners-this-spring-and-summer-3682998 | false | 4 |
David Moyes insists Declan Rice’s foul-mouthed rant during which he accused Europa League referee Jesus Gil Manzano of corruption shows how much West Ham’s players care.
Hammers captain Rice was filmed berating the Spanish official in the tunnel after his side suffered semi-final heartbreak at the hands of Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday evening.
The Premier League club were denied a first European final in 46 years following a 1-0 loss in Germany, which resulted in a 3-1 aggregate defeat.
Rice’s post-match remarks to Manzano were were captured by America TV company Fox Sports, with footage circulating on social media.
“Ref, ref, it’s so poor, all night, it’s so bad,” said the England midfielder.
“How can you be that bad, honestly? You’ve probably been f****** paid. F****** corruption.”
West Ham do not intend to comment on the incident until receiving the referee’s report.
Manager Moyes – who was sent-off during the match for kicking a ball at a ball boy – felt it demonstrated the passion within his squad and was also aggrieved at the standard of officiating.
“It just shows you how much all the players cared,” the Scotsman said on Friday afternoon.
“We all cared very much last night. We felt as if we had been treated quite badly overall and that is what happens.
“If you know about football, everybody is emotional so unless you’re in the heat of it sometimes people don’t understand how it feels.
“Last night, we had a group of players who were really connected, trying to win the game and felt it was very difficult under lots of different circumstances.”
West Ham had Aaron Cresswell sent off after just 19 minutes at Deutsche Bank Park and conceded the only goal of the evening to Rafael Borre just seven minutes later.
Defender Cresswell, who pulled down Jens Petter Hauge as he attempted to go through on goal, was initially shown a yellow card but it was upgraded to a red after a video assistant referee review.
Regarding Rice’s behaviour, a West Ham spokesperson said: “The club is aware of the video circulating on social media but will not be commenting further until the referee’s report from the UEFA Europa League semi-final second leg against Eintracht Frankfurt has been considered.” | https://www.expressandstar.com/sport/uk-sports/2022/05/06/declan-rices-rant-shows-how-much-we-care-says-david-moyes-after-frankfurt-loss/ | 2022-05-06T15:19:24Z | https://www.expressandstar.com/sport/uk-sports/2022/05/06/declan-rices-rant-shows-how-much-we-care-says-david-moyes-after-frankfurt-loss/ | true | 13 |

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — A Tennessee man has been charged with assault and other counts during the January 2021 Capitol insurrection.
Edward Kelley, 33, was arrested Thursday in Knoxville on charges that also include resisting or impeding officers during civil disorder, unlawful entry and physical violence, destruction of government property, violent entry and related offenses, news outlets reported, citing a statement from the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
A court affidavit filed May 3 says Kelley, of Maryville, attended a rally in Washington on Jan.. 6 where then-President Donald Trump was speaking and then walked to the Capitol.
He was wearing a gas mask and a green tactical helmet when he and two other men got into an altercation with a Capitol police officer, the complaint said. After the fight, Kelley is accused of breaking a window, entering the Capitol and then kicking open a door on the Senate side of the building, the complaint said.
Kelley told the FBI he attended the rally for Trump, but he denied entering the Capitol.
Kelley was identified after a witness told the FBI he drove Kelley to Washington on Jan. 5, according to court documents. Photos and video were used to place him inside the building, according to the complaint. | https://www.lakecountystar.com/news/article/Tennessee-man-charged-with-assault-in-Capitol-17154169.php | 2022-05-06T15:29:13Z | https://www.lakecountystar.com/news/article/Tennessee-man-charged-with-assault-in-Capitol-17154169.php | true | 12 |
Sick? A hospital bed in California will set you (or your insurance company) back about $4,100 a day. You may have an annoying roommate and lumpy oatmeal for breakfast, but you’ll also have licensed medical staff and cutting-edge technology designed to keep you alive at your fingertips.
Strung out from drugs or alcohol? Good luck.
A bed in a licensed residential detox in California can set you (or your insurance company) back as much as $3,500 a day. You may still have an annoying roommate and lumpy oatmeal, but that bed will, most likely, be in some non-descript tract home in a residential neighborhood, with maybe a pool and a chef and a licensed vocational nurse on duty. There may be an M.D. who weighs in occasionally, and doses of Narcan in a locked cabinet. Some boast ocean views and horse-petting sessions and Alcoholics Anonymous/Narcotics Anonymous meetings, but there won’t be a comprehensive, licensed medical staff at your fingertips if things go awry.
And in detox, which can be medically fraught, things often and tragically go awry, in ways staffers are just not equipped to handle. People die.
Enter now the newest law aiming to make things better: Sen. Tom Umberg’s SB 349, signed by the governor in April, requires every treatment provider in California to provide a “client bill of rights” to folks seeking addiction treatment, notifying them that they have the right to safe, ethical, evidence-based services (can you imagine needing this at your doctor’s office?).
This will be an actual piece of paper that clients must sign off on, “ensuring that those seeking substance use disorder treatment are afforded basic rights and protections.” Like other laws before it, it prohibits false or misleading advertising. Unlike other laws before it, it packs penalties of up to $20,000 per pop for violations, and expressly allows clients, families and the California Attorney General to take treatment providers who violate its provisions to court.
“This is particularly important in Orange County — we’ve been a magnet for fraudulent providers,” said Umberg. “We have people hanging out signs — ‘Dr. Feelgood’s Treatment Program’ — advertising something like 30 days at a spa. It’s not 30 days at a spa. It’s critically important that families know they have a right to evidence-based treatment, to a treatment plan, to services that are actually designed to help people recover.”
Bill of rights
So, specifically, this “bill of rights” will alert folks that they must be informed of all aspects of recommended treatment, including the option of no treatment at all, treatment risks and expected results; are to be treated by licensed and certified providers with qualified staff; receive an individualized, outcome-driven treatment plan; receive support, education and treatment for their families and loved ones; are free from mental and physical abuse, exploitation, coercion and physical restraint; and get information on how to file official complaints with state regulators.
Marketing materials must be accurate and in plain language. Programs affiliated with sober living homes must clearly provide that information to prospective clients, abide by state disclosure requirements that are already on the books, and keep records of referrals made to or from sober homes.
“People seeking treatment have a right to know that they are receiving appropriate and safe care,” said Gov. Gavin Newsom in a statement after he signed the bill. “There is no place in California for treatment providers who take advantage of those struggling with addiction — and with this legislation, we are taking steps to provide additional protections for patients, family members and loved ones of those who are seeking treatment.”
The current (overburdened, understaffed) regulator, the California Department of Health Care Services, can investigate complaints, but the Attorney General, county-level district attorneys, other governmental agencies (cities), and anyone who has been harmed (patients, families) can haul providers who violate the law’s provisions to court.
“It’s designed to weed out bad actors and provide a deterrent element,” said Michele Worobiec, president of the National Alliance for Model State Drug Laws, which helped craft it. “We convened a workgroup and people felt very strongly that, if you do set up shop in our state and we catch you, there will be real consequences.”
The goal is not to ensnare good providers on technicalities, she said, but to discourage predators whose goal is to make money off people who are suffering.
‘Abhorrent practice’
Among the bill’s supporters is the California Consortium of Addiction Programs and Professionals, which said it “continues the effort of previously enacted legislation to end the abhorrent practice of selling vulnerable patients seeking addiction treatment services to the highest bidder.”
In opposition was the California Association of Alcohol and Drug Program Executives, which argued that the bill duplicates functions already vested in the DHCS, and that the fine is too large and it’s unclear precisely what violations would trigger it.
“Abuses within the treatment industry have become so prevalent and common that they have been given a name: The Florida Shuffle, a cycle in which clients are wooed aggressively by rehabs and freelance ‘patient brokers’ in an effort to fill beds and collect insurance money,” says Umberg’s author’s statement on the bill.
“Southern California’s ‘Rehab Riviera’ is well known as an area in which a network of rehab facilities exist in a quasi-medical realm where evidence-based care is rare, licensed medical staffers are optional, conflicts of interest are rampant and regulation is stunningly lax. The result is preventable harm to some of California’s most vulnerable residents and unnecessary pain for their loved ones.
“This bill seeks to end these predatory behaviors by establishing uniform ethical standards for treatment programs and mechanisms for enforcing those standards.”

To become law, the bill has to go through the full Senate and House, then be signed by the President. White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the administration has concerns about the “potential implications and unintended consequences” of the legislation. She said the White House is still studying the bill.
A
CNN poll released Wednesday showed that a majority of Americans think Biden’s policies have hurt the economy, while 8 in 10 say the government is not doing enough to combat inflation.
Only Saudi Arabia and the UAE have the necessary
spare capacity to immediately ward off any shocks caused by a Russian shortfall. The OPEC members have refused to raise output substantially,
opting instead to stick to a series of gradual production increases agreed with Russia.
Frustrated at Riyadh’s refusal to heed US calls for more oil, politicians from the President’s own party have been pushing him to get tougher on Riyadh. Last month, nearly three dozen House Democrats called on Biden to “recalibrate” the relationship with Saudi Arabia, calling it a bad strategic partner,
according to reports.
“We are not schoolchildren to be treated with a carrot and stick,” said senior Saudi prince Turki Al-Faisal
in a recent interview. He blamed the US’ own energy policies “for the state they are in.”
While the NOPEC bill has
unsuccessfully tried to make its way through Congress before, today’s landscape is very different, said Robin Mills, founder and CEO of Qamar Energy in Dubai.
Mills told CNN why American politicians are making a new attempt to crush OPEC:
How is this attempt different from earlier ones?
There have been various versions of this since 2000, and it pops up whenever oil prices are high. It has never passed, and it never really got much traction. This time, in the government, it has gotten more traction, partly around Russia.
Biden is also under political pressure because of inflation. There is some political milage to blame OPEC for high oil process.
How have Saudi Arabia and other OPEC states responded to such attempts in the past?
They have always lobbied against it, and they will lobby again. I am not sure how strong their lobbying power is right now. They are not particularly popular in Washington at the moment, but they have their lobbyists.
[There is] the US petroleum lobby as well, API
[American Petroleum Institute] and other organizations that have typically been
against this bill because
they benefit from OPEC restraining production and keeping prices high. So they tend to oppose this bill on the ground.
How do you think oil producing states will respond to the bill?
I don’t think Middle Eastern countries can keep restraining production and refuse to play the game. They can be more cooperative and agree to increase production [but] they wouldn’t want to be seen doing that under pressure. The EU ban on Russian oil imports will take some time to have effect [so] OPEC and OPEC+ could have a few extra months where it becomes clear that there is a shortage of oil, and that gives them a reason to say: “well, we will increase production and makeup this gap.” So they can do that as a market measure without appearing to give in to political pressure.
How likely is this bill to be passed in the Senate and House? Is there a chance that Biden will pass it too?
Having another card to play will be quite appealing to the administration, even if they don’t let it go all the way. The NOPEC bill is an additional element at a time when the US doesn’t have that many cards to play [against oil producers]. Many of those bills have come up in the past, and there is always some national security argument that [oil producing states] are our allies, that we don’t want to disturb our relationship with them, and that they are important to the oil market. But this time there are a few elements that may give it a better chance.
[Biden] would have to either let it pass, or he would have to say, “I have vetoed it because the Saudis agreed to something for us” [like] agree to increase production or something. He can’t just veto it for no reason because that is just one more weapon against him from both the Republicans and the Democratic progressive left, saying he is [doing the] Saudis a favor at a time when oil prices are high.
Not vetoing it would be seen by Saudi Arabia and other producers as quite a hostile move.
Could passing this bill have a detrimental effect on the US itself?
The recovering prices have been very good for the US oil industry. But practically there isn’t that much spare capacity [in the US]. Even if Saudi and the UAE used all their spare capacity, the market is still pretty tight, and with Russia coming off, the market will get tighter.

The digest
US says it is preparing for a world both with and without an Iran nuclear deal
The United States is now preparing equally for both a scenario where there is a mutual return to compliance with Iran on a nuclear deal, as well as one in which there is not an agreement, the State Department said on Wednesday.
Background: The main sticking point in talks is Iran’s demand that its Revolutionary Guards be removed from the US’ list of foreign terrorist organizations. On Wednesday, the US Senate passed a non-binding resolution that calls on the Biden administration not to agree to a nuclear deal with Iran unless Tehran accepts tough minimal requirements, such as preventing oil exports to China, curbing its ballistic missile program, and the continuation of sanctions on the Revolutionary Guards.
Why it matters: A failure in talks to revive the Iran nuclear deal would deprive oil markets from over a million new barrels of Iranian oil that could ease the rise in crude prices and in turn tame inflation.
Iran to execute Swedish-Iranian on spying charges by May 21
A Swedish-Iranian sentenced to death in Iran on espionage charges will be executed on May 21, Iran’s semi-official ISNA news agency said on Wednesday. The Swedish foreign minister called for his release in a call with her Iranian counterpart.
Background: Ahmadreza Djalali, a doctor and researcher, was arrested in 2016 while on a visit to Iran. His sentence was announced shortly before the trial of Hamid Noury, a former Iranian prosecution official arrested by Swedish authorities in 2019, ended in Stockholm. Noury faces a maximum life sentence on charges of international war crimes and human rights abuses. Iran has called the accusations “baseless.” The verdict is due on July 14.
Why it matters: Iran’s Revolutionary Guards have arrested dozens of dual nationals in recent years, mostly on espionage charges. Rights activists have accused Iran of using them as bargaining chips. Iran, which does not recognize dual nationality, denies taking prisoners to gain diplomatic leverage.
At least three killed in attack on Israel’s independence day
At least three people were killed and four injured in an attack in the central Israeli city of Elad on Thursday, according to Israel’s emergency response services. Police said the incident involved two suspected assailants. One fired a rifle while the other attacked people with an axe or a knife, police said. The suspects have still not been apprehended.
Background: The attack marks the latest in a series of violent incidents that have put Israel and the Palestinian territories on edge in recent weeks. Dozens have died in attacks in Israel and the West Bank since March 22, according to a CNN count.
Why it matters: The attack comes after a period of clashes at Jerusalem’s al Aqsa mosque compound, where Palestinians have protested the presence of Israeli troops. Only Muslims are allowed to visit the holy site during the last 10 days of Ramadan each year. Ramadan ended last week and groups of Israeli Jews began visiting again on Thursday.
What’s trending
Turkey: #sigarazammi (cigarette rise)
Turks, already frustrated with record inflation and an economic downturn, got one more burden on their budgets this week: the price of cigarettes.
The nation, which has historically had one of the highest proportion of smokers in the world, has been falling in the ranking of late,
according to reports. Still, 31% of adults in the country of 81 million
are smokers.
The price of cigarettes has risen by 2 lira ($0.13) for some brands, accounting for a 5% to 10% climb depending on the type of cigarette, according to Ozgur Aybas, the president of the alcohol and cigarette dealers platform known as Tekel. A hashtag lamenting the rise was trending in the country.
“Enough!” one Twitter user posted on Thursday about the rising price of cigarettes. “I quit just in time,” another posted, saying they gave up the habit more than a month ago.
The rise in the price of cigarettes came on the day the Turkish Statistical Institute reported that annual inflation had reached a two-decade high in April, to almost 70%. Month-on-month consumer prices rose 7.25%. The average monthly household disposable income in the country stood at about $430 as of 2020,
according to the Turkish Statistical Institute.
Ali Babacan, former economy minister and current leader of opposition party Deva, tweeted “We are experiencing a destruction where the purchasing power of people who earn money by working is destroyed.”
#enflasyon, or inflation, was also trending in Turkey.
In February, Turkey’s economy and finance minister said country will see single-digit inflation by June 2023, when parliamentary and presidential elections are expected to take place.

Tweet of the day
Saudi billionaire prince Alwaleed bin Talal appeared to have a change of heart about entrepreneur Elon Musk’s offer to
buy Twitter, i which the prince holds a stake.
On April 14, the prince
tweeted that he didn’t consider Musk’s offer to “come close to the intrinsic value” of Twitter and rejected the offer as “one of the largest & long-term shareholders.”
Musk
shot back, asking how much of the company Saudi Arabia owns “directly & indirectly” as well as his country’s views on “journalistic freedom of speech.”
On Thursday, Alwaleed
tweeted it was great to connect with his “new friend” Musk, opting to roll his $1.89 billion stake into the deal rather than cashing out. | https://stvincenttribune.com/why-us-politicians-are-trying-to-break-the-worlds-oil-cartel-now/ | 2022-05-06T15:34:13Z | https://stvincenttribune.com/why-us-politicians-are-trying-to-break-the-worlds-oil-cartel-now/ | true | 10 |
Buckingham Palace revealed a major update regarding the Queen’s Trooping the Colour celebrations, which are a second official celebration of the monarch’s birthday.
“After careful consideration, the Queen has decided that this year’s traditional Trooping the Colour balcony appearance on Thursday 2nd of June will be limited to Her Majesty and those members of the Royal Family who are currently undertaking official public duties on behalf of the Queen,” the palace said in a statement shared with HuffPost on Friday.
The announcement means that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will not be present on the balcony, and neither will the disgraced Prince Andrew, as the three are not working royals.
Despite the palace’s announcement on Friday, the Sussexes made it clear that they will be attending Platinum Jubilee celebrations in honor of the queen’s 70 years on the throne.
“Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are excited and honoured to attend The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations this June with their children,” a spokesperson for the couple said in a statement shared with HuffPost on Friday.

STEWART COUNTY, Tenn. (WKRN) – Caretakers at a Tennessee day care have been accused of giving children melatonin to go to sleep without their parents’ consent.
The allegations were revealed Thursday morning against four workers, who have been arrested and charged.
Stewart County Sheriff Frankie Gray said a complaint was filed against MiMi’s Child Care on March 25. Investigators interviewed parents who said their children were reported to be lethargic or having health-related issues after staying at the daycare.
Melatonin is commonly used as a sleep aid. According to the Mayo Clinic, the most common side effects include headache, dizziness, nausea and drowsiness.
Detective Dana Saltkill and Detective Lee Miller both called the alleged incident “very shocking.”
They believe caretakers have been giving children, including infants, melatonin at this day care for about three years.
“You know daycare, you’d think taking their child there would be somewhat safe,” Saltkill said. “After finding this out, you kind of look back at it and say, ‘Hmm, there’s a lot of red flags that parents didn’t pick up on. As soon as we started investigating, we knew what to look for, so we got into it.”
Miller said he and Saltkill believe about 27 children were given melatonin since the day care opened, but they think the number could be higher.
A search warrant was executed on April 28 at the day care. On May 5, Jaime Clark, 45; Kristin Clark, 22; Jordan Darnell, 22, and Ethan Pulley, 21, were taken into custody and charged.
Jamie Clark, Kristin Clark and Jordan Darnell are charged with child abuse/neglect, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, tampering with evidence and criminal violations. Pulley was charged with fabricating/tampering with evidence.
The day care surrendered its license on May 2 and is now closed, according to the Tennessee Department of Human Services.
The investigation is ongoing.
Investigators ask anyone with a child at that day care, or anyone who has more information on the case, to contact the Stewart’s County Sheriff’s Office. | https://www.fox46.com/news/national-news/4-charged-with-giving-sleep-aids-to-kids-at-tennessee-day-care/ | 2022-05-06T15:38:59Z | https://www.fox46.com/news/national-news/4-charged-with-giving-sleep-aids-to-kids-at-tennessee-day-care/ | true | 16 |

Ukraine updates: Russia says no nuclear intentions for Ukraine
What's happening in Ukraine today and how are countries around the world responding? Read live updates on President Vladimir Putin's Russian invasion of Ukraine.
MOSCOW -- Russia has no intention of deploying tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine, a foreign ministry spokesman said on Friday, a day after Moscow's top diplomat in the U.S. chided Western officials for targeting it with "baseless" accusations.
"Russia firmly abides by the principle that there can be no victors in a nuclear war and it must not be unleashed," Alexey Zaitsev said. He added that Russian nuclear doctrine does not envisage any scenarios for potential strikes which would apply to Moscow's military goals in Ukraine.
Nevertheless, Zaitsev added that "any provocations whatsoever can be expected" from Ukraine and the West, and that Russia has to "be ready for any development in the media space and directly on the ground."
His statement echoed remarks made by Russia's ambassador in Washington on Thursday.
In an interview with Newsweek, Anatoly Antonov slammed what he called "a flurry of blatant misrepresentation of Russian officials' statements on our country's nuclear policy." He accused top U.S. military leaders -- including the Defence Secretary and Joint Chiefs of Staff -- of falsely blaming Moscow for escalating nuclear tensions, calling their claims "baseless" and "part of a propaganda campaign against Russia in response to the steps taken to neutralize threats to our national security

LONDON -- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he has invited Germany's head of government and its head of state to visit Ukraine on May 9, the day Russia marks the victory of the Soviet Union over Nazi Germany in the Second World War.
Western officials believe Russian President Vladimir Putin could use the Victory Day holiday to make an announcement about the war -- either declaring a victory or escalating the conflict.
Germany is part of the Western alliance supporting Ukraine, but Chancellor Olaf Scholz has yet to make a solidarity visit to the country. Scholz has traded barbs with Ukrainian officials in recent weeks because of Kyiv's refusal to invite Germany's head of state, President Frank-Walter Steinmeier, whom Ukraine accuses of cozying up to Russia during his time as foreign minister.
Speaking at London's Chatham House think-tank on Friday, Zelenskyy said he had spoken to Steinmeier and invited both him and Scholz to come to Kyiv.
He said Scholz "can make this very powerful political step to come here on the 9th of May, to Kyiv."
There was no immediate word on whether the German politicians had agreed. German Parliament President Baerbel Bas is scheduled to visit Ukraine on Sunday and Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock is due to visit soon.
------
BERLIN -- German Chancellor Olaf Scholz says his country is providing Ukraine with "all the support we can give and also take responsibility for" in its war with Russia.
Speaking to business leaders in Hamburg on Friday, Scholz said Russia must not gain the upper hand in the conflict, which he described as a "war of destruction" waged by Moscow against Ukraine.
The German leader said that Russia's position as a global power with a seat on the UN Security Council means that "if (Vladimir) Putin gets away with it then there's a risk of international lawlessness."
----
LONDON -- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he is still open to negotiations with Russia, but only if Moscow withdraws its forces to their pre-invasion positions.
Zelenskyy told a meeting at London's Chatham House think-tank on Friday that "regaining the situation as of the 23rd of February" -- the day before the invasion -- is a prerequisite for talks.
He said "in that situation we will be able to start discussing things normally," and Ukraine could use "diplomatic channels" to regain its territory.
The British government, a key ally of Ukraine, has said Russia must be driven from all of Ukraine, including Crimea, which Moscow seized from Ukraine in 2014.
Despite Russia's intensified attack on Ukraine's eastern Donbas region, Zelenskyy said there is still space for diplomacy. He said "not all the bridges are yet destroyed," figuratively speaking.
Asked whether Russia would soon take full control of the besieged port city of Mariupol, Zelenskyy said: "Mariupol will never fall. I'm not talking about heroism or anything. There is nothing there to fall apart. It is already devastated."

NICOSIA, Cyprus -- The president of Cyprus says he and the Greek prime minister agree that any additional European Union sanctions against Russia must be targeted and not chosen to "serve the interests" of some member states while leaving others in the lurch.
President Nicos Anastasiades said after talks with Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis in Athens on Friday that the two leaders fully support EU sanctions against Russia and condemn Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.
But Anastasiades said he and Mitsotakis share the view that the 27-nation bloc must take into account the concerns of Greece, Malta and Cyprus regarding sanctions that could potentially harm their economies.
Cypriot Foreign Minister Ioanis Kasoulides told state broadcaster CyBC on Thursday that Cyprus objects to any sanctions that would impact law and accounting firms that offer services to Russian-owned companies registered in Cyprus.
Kasoulides said he believes the EU will move to impose additional sanctions on law and accounting firms servicing Russian-owned companies specifically registered in Russia.
He said an embargo on Russian oil and gas wouldn't affect Cyprus which purchases its supplies from other countries but joins Malta in supporting Greece's efforts to keep its sizeable oil tanker fleet off any sanctions list.

ROME -- The European Union's foreign affairs chief has voiced worry that Russia might expand its war in Ukraine to include Moldova, a small nation which borders southern Ukraine.
Josep Borrell, the top EU diplomat, was asked at a forum in Florence, Italy, on Friday if the European Union was concerned about what could happen to Moldova.
"Yes, we're very much worried about what can happen," Borrell said. "The temptation to expand the war and affect Moldova is a possibility," Borrell said. He cited recent explosions in the country as well as the presence of Russian troops.
Last month, two explosions in a radio facility close to the border with Ukraine knocked out of service a pair of powerful broadcast antennas in Moldova's separatist region of Trans-Dniester, according to local police.
Trans-Dniester is a narrow strip of land that has been under the control of separatist authorities since a 1992 war with Moldova. Russia bases some 1,500 troops in the breakaway region, describing them as peacekeepers.
------
VATICAN CITY -- Pope Francis says Russia's war in Ukraine is particularly "barbarous" given that it involves Christians killing fellow Christians in a scandal that should drive the faithful toward unity.
Speaking to members of the Vatican office that promotes Christian unity among Catholics, Orthodox and other Christian churches, Francis said Christians should ask themselves what they have done and can do to foster fraternity with one another.
Francis recalled that efforts at unifying Christians took off in the last century thanks to "the awareness that the scandal of the division of Christians had a historical weight in generating the evil that has poisoned the world with grief and injustice."
He said: "Today, in the face of the barbarism of war, this yearning for unity must be fuelled again."
------
GENEVA -- The UN's Food and Agricultural Organization is pointing to "anecdotal evidence" that Russian forces are stealing grain from Ukraine, at a time when the country's ports have been all but unable to export following the Russian invasion.
Josef Schmidhuber, deputy director of FAO's markets and trade division, told reporters at a UN briefing in Geneva that about 700,000 tons of grain had "disappeared" in Ukraine. He cautioned that there were no "statistics" about possible theft.
"There's anecdotal evidence that Russian troops have destroyed storage capacity and that they are looting the storage grain that is available," he said. "They are also stealing farm equipment."
He pointed to "quite a bit of credibility" to footage shared on social media suggesting that "large amounts of grain all being trucked out of the country by Russia."
Schmidhuber said that "to the best of my knowledge," no grain was leaving Ukrainian ports.
"It's an almost grotesque situation that we see at the moment in Ukraine: There are nearly 25 million tons of grain that could be exported, but they cannot leave the country simply because of the lack of infrastructure and the blockade of the ports," he said.
-----
BUDAPEST, Hungary - A European Union embargo on Russian oil would be equivalent to dropping an "atomic bomb" on Hungary's economy and could thus not be accepted, the country's nationalist prime minister said on Friday.
Speaking on state radio, Viktor Orban reiterated earlier statements from Hungarian officials that Hungary would not support a new round of proposed EU sanctions against Russia if they included a ban on Russian oil exports.
Orban said that while his government is willing to negotiate on any EU proposals that are in Hungary's interests, the country's geography and existing energy infrastructure make a shutdown of Russian oil unfeasible.
"We cannot accept a proposal that ignores this circumstance because in its current form it is equivalent to an atomic bomb dropped on the Hungarian economy," Orban said.
Hungary's government has firmly opposed EU plans to include Russian energy exports in its sanctions against Moscow, arguing that 85% of Hungary's gas and more than 60% of its oil comes from Russia.
On Friday, Orban said that converting Hungary's oil refineries and pipelines to be able to process oil from different sources would take five years and require massive investment.

COPENHAGEN, Denmark -- Denmark is sending 5.7 million pairs of medical gloves to Ukraine, authorities said Friday, adding they were responding to a Ukrainian request sent via the European Union's crisis preparedness centre.
The gloves are surplus items and will not affect Denmark's emergency preparedness, the state Danish Critical Supply Agency said in a statement.
The Ukrainian Ministry of Health had requested the gloves via Emergency Response Co-ordination Centre, the agency said. They will be sent to a warehouse in Poland, from where they will be shipped to Ukraine.
Denmark has previously donated 1 million facemasks, 1 million white surgical coats and 5,000 respirators to Ukraine, among other things.

BERLIN -- Germany's defence minister confirmed Friday that her country will supply Ukraine with seven powerful self-propelled howitzers to help defend itself against Russia.
Christine Lambrecht said Ukrainian soldiers will be trained in Germany to use the self-propelled Panzerhaubitze 2000 artillery, which is capable of firing precision ammunition at a distance of up to 40 kilometres.
Germany has stepped up its material support for Ukraine in recent weeks, after the government's initial reticence to provide heavy weapons drew widespread criticism.
Chancellor Olaf Scholz is due to address the nation Sunday on the anniversary of the end of the Second World War in Europe. The defeat of Nazi Germany by the Allies 77 years ago has increasingly been portrayed as a day of liberation in the country. Scholz's speech is expected to outline his government's position on the war in Ukraine.

LVIV, Ukraine -- The British military believes Russia wants to take the port city of Mariupol and its vast steel mill before it marks Victory Day on Monday.
The British Defence Ministry made the comment in a daily intelligence briefing it makes on Twitter.
The Azovstal steelworks in Mariupol has been the scene of weeks of fighting. It has a vast network of underground bomb shelters shielding fighters and civilians from Russian bombardment, though the site has been repeatedly struck by high-explosive bombs.
The British military said: "The renewed effort by Russia to secure Azovstal and complete the capture of Mariupol is likely linked to the upcoming 9 May Victory Day commemorations and Putin's desire to have a symbolic success in Ukraine."
It added: "This effort has come at personnel, equipment and munitions cost to Russia. Whilst Ukrainian resistance continues in Azovstal, Russian losses will continue to build and frustrate their operational plans in southern Donbas."
Victory Day marks the Soviet Union's victory over Nazi Germany in the Second World War.

LVIV, Ukraine -- There are growing suggestions that Ukraine might try to widen its push to seize more territory from Russia outside of Kharkiv, its second-largest city.
Ukrainian chief of defence, Gen. Valerii Zaluzhnyi, said Thursday that a counteroffensive could begin to push Russian forces away from Kharkiv and Izyum, which has been a key node in Russia's control of the area.
Ukraine in recent days has pushed Russia some 40 kilometres east of Kharkiv, which has been repeatedly struck by Russian shelling.
Further pushing the Russians away may spare the city from more artillery strikes, as well as force Moscow to divert troops from other areas of the front line to maintain its hold on territory there.
------
LVIV, Ukraine -- The Ukrainian military says the Russian effort to seize the steel plant in Mariupol continues.
The General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces issued a daily statement Friday saying that "the blockade of units of the defence forces in the Azovstal area continues."
It added: "In some areas, with the support of aviation, resumed assault operations to take control of the plant."
Elsewhere in the country, the Ukrainian military said Russian forces are conducting surveillance flights of territory. In the hard-hit areas of Donetsk and Luhansk, Ukraine's military said it repulsed 11 enemy attacks and destroyed tanks and armored vehicles. There was no immediate acknowledgement of those losses by Russia.
------
WASHINGTON -- The Pentagon says the majority of Russian forces that had been around the port city of Mariupol have left and headed north, leaving roughly the equivalent of two battalion tactical groups there, or about 2,000 troops.
Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said Thursday that even as Russian airstrikes continue to bombard Mariupol, Moscow's forces are still making only "plodding" and incremental progress as the main fight presses on in the eastern Donbas region.
He said he has seen no change in Russian behaviour or momentum as May 9 draws near.
Russia celebrates Victory Day on May 9, the anniversary of the Soviet Union's defeat of Nazi Germany in the Second World War. There have been suggestions that Russian President Vladimir Putin wants to tout a major victory in Ukraine when he makes his address during the traditional military parade on Red Square.
Kirby said the U.S. still assesses that Russia is behind schedule and not making the progress in the Donbas that it expected.
------
MARIUPOL, Ukraine -- A cleanup operation took place in the centre of Mariupol even as Ukrainian fighters held out against Russian troops in the city's pulverized steel plant. The rest of the city is now under Russian control.
Municipal workers, as well as volunteers, were seen Thursday clearing debris near gutted, charred buildings, including the drama theatre where hundreds died when the Russian military bombed it in March. Some workers hung a Russian flag on a tall utility pole.
One volunteer, who gave only his first name, Denis, said he was helping restore parks and war monuments so the city could celebrate Victory Day on Monday. Russia celebrates victory over Nazi Germany in the Second World War on May 9.
------
KYIV, Ukraine -- In his nightly video address Thursday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy described a "catastrophic" lack of access to medical services and medicine in areas of the country under Russian occupation.
In those areas, he said almost no treatment was available for those suffering from cancer and where insulin for diabetics was difficult to find or nonexistent. He said antibiotics were in short supply.
Zelenskyy also said that during the course of the war, the Russian military has already fired 2,014 missiles on Ukraine, while 2,682 flights of Russian warplanes have been recorded in Ukrainian skies. He said the destroyed or damaged infrastructure includes nearly 400 hospitals and other medical facilities.

TIPPING Point fans have begged bosses to make a major change to the show - but do you agree?
As a new batch of contestants took to their podiums on Thursday's show, viewers took issue with some of the questions being asked.
Many felt they were "too easy" and considering one of them was "What animal does a pork chop derive from?" they may have a point.
Other questions included: "Which movie does the term 'hasta la vista baby' derive from, spoken by Arnold Schwarzenegger?" and “What primary colour signals not to walk at a traffic crossing."
Taking to Twitter, one Tipping Point fan wrote: "pork chop is from which animal? These questions are getting more and more ridiculous #TippingPoint."
Another added: "These questions are ridiculously easy for 3 counters #TippingPoint, come on ITV make it challenging!”
After another question asked what PJ stands for in regards to sleepwear, a viewer wrote: "“What does PJ stand for? F*** off ITV! #TippingPoint.”
Meanwhile a fourth raged: "I'm not saying the #tippingpoint is too easy, but that question 'what colour is a crossing light when you’re not supposed to cross was answered by my 3 YO.”
The episode saw Hannah make it to the final and win a respectable £3850, as well as a sweet treats hamper and a barbecue smoker.
Earlier this week, a Tipping Point contestant broke the show's record.
Most read in TV
On Tuesday's show, Torah proved early on that she didn't need luck, as she banked the most cash in one particular round - breaking a record in the process.
Sati had some luck with the machine, but Torah's opening impressive 17 coin drop spotlighted her as the one to beat.
With each coin equalling £50, her £850 headstart was too much to rival throughout the show.
Her winning streak continued and, by the end of round one, Torah smashed the "show's record" with £2,450.
Tipping Point airs weekdays at 4pm on ITV.

Comedians and comedy club owners are now fearful following Dave Chappelle’s shocking onstage attack during his set at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on May 3.
While speaking to Fox News Digital, Jamie Masada, the owner, and CEO of the world-renowned Laugh Factory comedy club said he believed Will Smith’s infamous slap against Chris Rock at the Oscars may have opened up the floodgates for unprovoked assaults against comedians on stage.
“It’s a sad, sad thing happening right now,” Masada, who is also a comedian, told the news outlet. “People are going on the stage just trying to make a name for themselves and I think what Will Smith did actually encouraged the violence and that’s a horrible thing.”
Comedy club beef up security following attack against Chappelle
The busy club owner said that he and other comedy establishments across the U.S. are now thinking about boosting security following Chapelle’s unexpected incident.
“We’ve got to stop the violence, Masada added. “We’ve got to bring people together. Laughter is supposed to bring people together. Laughter is supposed to make peace.”
Curtis Shaw Flagg, the president of The Laugh Factory Chicago, claimed that he has seen hostility among crowd goers surge since Trump took office in 2016, noting how the pandemic may have exacerbated the issue.
“It was really bad in between 2016 and 2020. Where if you said something about Trump and there was a supporter in the crowd, they just had to make their selves known,” Flagg told The Hollywood Reporter (THR) in March. “It all just became like this intellectual battle — as opposed to people just sitting down, enjoying the jokes.”
Following Will Smith’s kerfuffle with Chris Rock, Flagg has beefed up security at the Chicago comedy club drastically, adding a guard near the stage to keep comedians safe. The Laugh Factory has also implemented a strict policy, where hecklers are issued two warnings before they are escorted out of the venue if they disrupt the show for a third time. Since the onslaught of the pandemic, Flagg said he’s had to deal with a number of unruly customers, even some instances where angry crowd-goers charged at the stage. Flagg was shocked after hearing about the attacker at the Hollywood bowl.
“First reaction was: ‘Here we go again.’ My second reaction was, ‘Nobody’s safe,’” he added in a recent interview with THR. “We are leaving comedians completely exposed. We’re allowing them to exercise their creative speech onstage, but we aren’t taking the requisite steps to make sure that they’re protected. The security team are to blame for not taking adequate measures to make sure [attackers] didn’t even get to [the comics]. That’s their one job, and it seems like there’s been a complete failure to do that.”
One comedian said he warned security about the assailant moments before the attack
Tuesday night’s assault against Dave Chappelle came with little to no warning when 23-year-old Trump supporter Isaiah Lee climbed on the stage and charged at the 48-year-old comedian, tackling him to the ground. LAPD officials said that Lee allegedly pulled out a fake semi-automatic replica that had an ejectable knife blade attached, but it’s unclear if he attempted to use the weapon on the former Comedy Central star.
Comedian Tehran Von Ghasri, who attended Tuesday’s night show, told Fox News Digital that he witnessed Lee climb over the barrier that separated the stage from the audience.
“I see that there is a young person, a young man walks up with intent, slides over the barrier that separates the pool area, which is the closest area to the back area, and slides over that barrier within three feet of me. I turn to the person to my left and I expressed, ‘That’s very suspicious.’ He agrees and says, ‘That is very sketch,’” he explained, noting how he even alerted a security guard about the assailant trespassing, but he alleged that security “dismissed” his concern.
“Within 30 seconds of all this, the assailant leaps over the barrier to get on the stage runs aggressively towards Dave Chappelle, and knocks right into him,” he continued. “This person, clearly — it was premeditated. It was pre-orchestrated and it was organized. This was an attack on Dave Chappelle, which is an attack on comedy, which is an attack on all comedians, and to be honest, is an attack on freedom of speech.”
Lee was taken out of the venue on a stretcher after security caught the young man on stage and fought him off the comedian. He was charged with assault with a deadly weapon and is currently behind held on $30,000 bail.
Comedians address concerns about safety
Comedians have been sounding off about event safety measures since the Oscars and now, new worries are growing as a result of Tuesday night’s attack. Comedian Heather McDonald told NBC News Bay Area that she has seen stage crashers disrupt a number of shows “since the Will Smith incident.”
“And 99.9% of comedians, you’re the only one at the club traveling by yourself.” The Juicy Scoop podcast host joked in all seriousness about the issue on Twitter, asking her fans on May 4:
“Any police officers who think I’m funny or your wife is a #juicyscoop (podcast) fan, please contact me for tickets to my live stand-up shows. I’d really love to have you in the front row.”
“This way, they can come see a show and I can feel secure, and they can see a show for free, and I think it’s something that would be a really good idea for other comedians and other comedy clubs and theaters to consider,” she added to NBC.
Similarly, back in March, Kathy Griffin expressed her concerns about comedy club safety following Will Smith’s outburst against Rock.
“Let me tell you something, it’s a very bad practice to walk up on stage and physically assault a Comedian. Now we all have to worry about who wants to be the next Will Smith in comedy clubs and theaters,” she wrote.
A rep for Chappelle released a statement about the incident
“As unfortunate and unsettling as the incident was, Chappelle went on with the show. Jamie Foxx and Chris Rock helped calm the crowd with humor before Chappelle introduced the last and featured musical guests for the evening.” | https://kysdc.com/4477082/is-it-safe-to-tell-jokes-comedy-community-on-edge/ | 2022-05-06T16:00:22Z | https://kysdc.com/4477082/is-it-safe-to-tell-jokes-comedy-community-on-edge/ | true | 3 |
‘No Mow May’ puts lawnmowers on pause to help bees
PORTLAND, Maine (WMTW) - A movement aimed to help bees survive and thrive is underway during the month of May.
“No Mow May” encourages people to cut back on mowing their lawns or even skip it altogether.
“When I see a lawn covered in dandelions, I don’t see weeds. I see bee food,” said Meghan Gave, owner of The Honey Exchange.
Natural growth provides bees with nectar that they need to grow and pollinate flowers, but many of us are used to seeing and unmowed lawn as a sign of neglect.
“No Mow May” could help change that narrative.
“I think the average person wants to have a beautiful lawn, and when they see lawn just let grown, they think maybe they’re not taking care of the space,” said Jeff Tarling, Portland city arborist. “And I think ‘No Mow May’ is really promoting that it’s OK to pause for that month.”
The city of Portland has taken “No Mow May” to a whole new level. They have more than 30 acres of park space that they only mow once a year.
“And particularly for urban communities like Portland, if you can make a three-acre meadow, it’s a good thing,” Tarling said.
Tickborne illness experts warn that higher grass could create more tick exposure, but that still doesn’t mean that you necessarily must break out the mower.
“Anything we can do to, you know, increase pollinator survival and help them thrive is really critical,” said Griffin Dill of Maine Tick Lab. “But if you are going to take part, certainly just be cognizant of the potential threat of ticks, and take those personal protection measures.”
You can help your local ecosystem and save yourself some yard work while you’re at it.
“And ‘No Mow May,’ I’m all for it. Also, I don’t like mowing,” said Meghan Gave, owner of The Honey Exchange.

GM on Carson Wentz: Colts Knew They'd 'Get Egg on Our Face' as QB Wasn't 'a Good Fit'
May 6, 2022Indianapolis Colts general manager Chris Ballard said the franchise was likely to move on from quarterback Carson Wentz regardless of how the 2021 NFL season played out.
The Colts' collapse at the end of last season to miss the playoffs was often cited as a reason for Wentz's trade to the Washington Commanders, but Ballard told Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk on Wednesday the wheels were already in motion behind the scenes based on conversations with team owner Jim Irsay and head coach Frank Reich:
"I think we still would've had some hard discussions. Just the way we played down the stretch, and we knew we needed to make some improvements in that area. The one thing I think Jim and I and Frank are when we know something's not a good fit, don't just try to justify it. Let's move forward. We all knew we were going to get egg on our face. That is what it is, but at the end of the day it's about doing the right thing for the organization. I think even if we would've ended up in the playoffs, we would've had some hard discussions going forward."
Ballard's comments are in line with details provided about Wentz's brief one-year tenure in Indianapolis following his trade to Washington in March.
Zak Keefer of The Athletic reported the Colts' problems with the former Philadelphia Eagles starter "stretched back to before the season began" and the team became frustrated with his "lack of leadership, a resistance to hard coaching and a reckless style of play."
For his part, Wentz said he wasn't expecting a trade despite "a year that had highs and lows, ups and downs."
"Definitely surprised," Wentz told reporters in March. "Any time you're in a new place, you want it to work out. You want to be there, you want to do the best you can for that team, that organization, that fanbase, and God willing it works out for a long time. It didn't."
Wentz didn't perform poorly from a statistical perspective with 27 touchdowns and just seven interceptions in 17 games with Indy, but the outside evaluation of his play wasn't as favorable with a mediocre 70.9 overall grade from Pro Football Focus.
As he heads to Washington for another fresh start, the Colts move forward with longtime Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan as their No. 1 QB following a separate March trade.
Ryan, a 14-year veteran, was voted the NFL's MVP in 2016 and put together another strong year in 2018, but his numbers have trended in the wrong direction since that point. He ranked 21st in ESPN's Total QBR last season.
That said, he's always been viewed as a consummate professional and the Colts will hope his numbers bounce back within an offense where he'll be asked to shoulder less of the burden thanks to the presence of running back Jonathan Taylor.
Meanwhile, Indianapolis will host Washington during the 2022 season, and the return of Wentz is going to add plenty of intrigue to that matchup. | https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10035109-gm-on-carson-wentz-colts-knew-theyd-get-egg-on-our-face-as-qb-wasnt-a-good-fit | 2022-05-06T16:03:41Z | https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10035109-gm-on-carson-wentz-colts-knew-theyd-get-egg-on-our-face-as-qb-wasnt-a-good-fit | false | 1 |
Guwahati, May 6 (PTI) A nonagenarian woman who was frantically trying to meet Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma for apprising him of a job-related issue of her son was finally able to do so.
After getting information that an aged woman was waiting to have a word with him, the chief minister on Friday met her on the sidelines of a programme at Kaziranga and assured her of all support from the government in resolution of the problem.

The woman was reportedly seeking regularisation of her son's job in a government department where he had been working for several years.
Sarma told her that he will take up the matter with the authority concerned after returning to Guwahati on Saturday and asked her companion for a phone number in which they could be contacted.
Ninety-year-old Binu Goswami and a woman accompanying her had travelled from Dergaon, about 60 km from the meeting venue at Kaziranga, to seek an audience with Sarma.
They sat patiently outside the luxury resort since Friday morning as the members of the BJP-led ruling coalition in the state remained closeted in a meeting to discuss the important schemes and steps that were undertaken by the Sarma-led dispensation in the first year in office and how to move forward in the next four years.
A video circulated on the CMO's official Twitter handle showed Sarma walking over to Goswami and her companion as they sat in the waiting lounge of the resort.
Kneeling in front of Goswami and addressing her as ‘khuri' (aunt), the chief minister inquired what was the matter that had brought her to meet him.
As he went through a letter that had earlier been handed by the woman to his associates, she said it concerned the job of her elder son, and her repeated pleas before the authorities had not yielded any result.
Sharing photographs of his meeting with the woman, Sarma tweeted: “How divine it feels to have the blessings from 90-year-old grandmother at Kaziranga today. She had very kindly come to see me from Dergaon regarding a personal issue related to her son. Assured her of all support from government in resolution of the problem.”
The chief minister said that he will visit Goswami's house at Dergaon and directed the officials to ensure that the two women had food before leaving.
A visibly elated Goswami later told reporters at the resort that she was hopeful that her matter will be resolved and expressed satisfaction at the chief minister's initiative to meet her.

BALTIMORE (AP)Austin Hays hit a tiebreaking home run in the eighth inning that sailed over the big new wall in left field at Camden Yards – an impressive swing under any circumstances.
It wasn’t even his favorite play of the night.
That honor was reserved for Hays’ fourth-inning throw from down the line in left that arrived at home just in time to catch Max Kepler trying to score. Thanks largely to Hays’ bat and his arm, the Baltimore Orioles beat the Minnesota Twins 5-3 on Thursday night.
Hays made it clear afterward which highlight meant more to him.
”Definitely the throw,” he said. ”You hit more home runs than you get assists in the outfield.”
Ryan Mountcastle homered twice for the Orioles, including a drive immediately after Hays hit his homer with one out in the eighth off Jhoan Duran (0-1). Cedric Mullins and Jorge Mateo went deep as well for Baltimore.
Byron Buxton hit a home run for Minnesota, which was without manager Rocco Baldelli, second baseman Luis Arraez and pitcher Dylan Bundy because they tested positive for COVID-19 before the game. Twins star Carlos Correa also left after he appeared to be hit on the hand by a pitch – the team said he might have a broken finger and will have another test Friday.
Jorge Lopez (3-1) got the final four outs for Baltimore to earn the win.
Mountcastle put the Orioles up 1-0 in the second, and the drive by Mullins made it 2-1 in the third. Buxton hit a two-run shot in the fifth, but Mateo tied it in the bottom half.
In the fourth, Hays uncorked a throw all the way to the plate from deep down the line in left, cutting down Kepler at home on Gary Sanchez’s double.
The Twins had another runner thrown out at the plate on an odd play in the third. With the bases loaded and nobody out, Buxton hit a grounder to third, and the Orioles tried to turn a double play up the middle. One run scored easily on the play, and when second baseman Rougned Odor’s throw got past first, rookie Jose Miranda tried to come home too.
Miranda was initially called safe on a close play after the throw by first baseman Mountcastle, but he was ruled out after a replay review.
The wall at Camden Yards is higher and further back than it was last season, but that didn’t matter much on a night when the Orioles hit five home runs and Buxton’s shot for the Twins went 452 feet, according to Statcast.
Mountcastle’s homers went to center and right-center, two parts of the park that are unchanged.
”Some of these guys are at their best when they’re using the big part of the field and staying into right-center anyways,” Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said.
MOVING UP
Catcher Adley Rutschman, baseball’s No. 2 prospect according to MLB Pipeline, was assigned to Triple-A Norfolk from Double-A Bowie. Rutschman reached Triple-A last year but had a triceps injury before this season.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Twins: Correa was hit by a pitch in the fifth. The ball appeared to deflect off his wrist or forearm and catch him around the right shoulder. He stayed in the game. But next time up, a pitch appeared hit at least one of his hands while they were on the handle of the bat and he was in the middle of a half-swing. The ball went into fair territory and Correa was easily retired. … Bench coach Jayce Tingler managed in Baldelli’s place.
Orioles: Hyde said OF Tyler Nevin (groin) was probably available off the bench, but he didn’t play.
UP NEXT
Twins: Minnesota returns home to face Oakland. Josh Winder (1-0) takes the mound for the Twins against Cole Irvin (2-1) on Friday night.
Orioles: Baltimore hosts Kansas City on Friday night. Jordan Lyles (2-2) starts for the Orioles against Carlos Hernandez (0-1).

From disco to video games: 6 themed bars coming to downtown Orlando this summer
ORLANDO, Fla. — A little something for everyone will be coming to downtown Orlando this summer.
>>> STREAM CHANNEL 9 EYEWITNESS NEWS LIVE <<<
Bar None Creations, an Orlando-based fabrication and design company that specializes in themed bars and restaurants, said on its website it will open six new themed bars around downtown.
Here is what we know about them.
- 1-Up Orlando: This “barcade” was previously announced. The owners said it will infuse elements of a bar and arcade, and open in the former home of Schumann’s Jager Haus, 25 W. Church St. It will open sometime in May.
- High-T Orlando: Described as “Orlando’s newest high team room and nighttime speakeasy” by Bar None Creations. It will open in June.
- Outer Rim Tiki Cabaret: Not much is known about this themed bar, but based on its name and a few posts on their Instagram page, we can assume it will be sci-fi or “Star Wars” themed. An opening date beyond this summer has not been announced.
- GOGO’s Disco: This will be a “disco lounge, with groovy cocktails, dancing queens, duck pin bowling, and the most radical music to get your jive on,” according to the bar’s Instagram page.
- The Society: Bar None’s website hints at this being a “membership only” bar, perhaps a speak-easy, but nothing else is known.
- Red Door: Nothing is yet known about this new location, and an Instagram page gives virtually no clues.
Bar None Creations also oversaw the development of Cocktails & Screams, the year-round Halloween Bar in downtown Orlando.

“My delicious dilemma is language”, Wanda Coleman writes. “And as I’ve become more and more shattered, my tongue has become tangled… I am glassed in by language as well as the barriers of my dark skin and financial embarrassment.”. In a way, those lines are a microcosm of the qualities that dominate Coleman’s distinctive poems: rampant alliteration, incessant citations of societal pressures, and the documentation of the simultaneous frustrations and ecstasies with her subjects: language itself, doomed-from-the-beginning love affairs, motherhood.
This first UK edition of Coleman’s work takes the reader through 22 years of poems laced with a spitfire passion and erupting intelligence, as she documents and critiques her life as a working-class black woman living in Los Angeles, the city where she was born in 1946, and lived most of her life, until her death in 2013.
The collection’s title, Wicked Enchantment, invokes the feeling one is entering a dark forest. Coleman’s poems are the frightening bellows in the distance, the approach of footsteps behind you, the fallen branches tripped over and further causing injury. Poems come fast after their loosely-anchoring titles. As in ‘Giving Birth”:
against bone. rubbing. pressure against bladder
i pee and pee and pee
and drink water and more water. never enough water
it twists in my womb
my belly a big brown bowl of jello quakes
twenty pounds and climbing
eat eat eat…
The lack of punctuation would seem to suggest simultaneity of sensations rather than sequentiality. Coleman’s poems often progress like this, breaking the silence with short, syncopated, seemingly incomplete utterances, careering almost out of control. “[A]fter the war the war begins the war goes on”, begins Notes of a Cultural Terrorist 2, a poem in which Coleman indicts the American military complex, further suffusing it with the paradoxes of wide-spread poverty in LA: “she’d be satisfied if she lived to see her refrigerator full/ just once before she departs this planet.”
For all of the work’s fanged-ness (“wanda you’re ALWAYS on the attack” she writes in one poem), she was adept at ricocheting from her rightfully owned anger to lyrics of romantic desire, joys and jealousies, and her downright fatigue at living the life she was living. This fatigue is elaborated in “Wanda Why Aren’t You Dead”:
wanda why ain’t you rich
wanda you know no man in his right mind want a ready-made family
why don’t you lose weight
wanda why are you so angry
It’s a recurring gesture that Coleman speaks to herself in a sardonic tone. Elsewhere in the collection, Coleman describes working multiple jobs over her life (she was, at different times, a waitress, typist, radio presenter, editor of an adult magazine and a writer for the TV soap Days of Our Lives), as well as raising children, and being in-and-out relationships that took a toll on her spirit. Confrontations with the LAPD are regular and inconveniencing:
they had a warrant out for my arrest
‘what’s your name? where’s your identification’
i was half naked so they didn’t come inside
“I want freedom when I write,” Coleman wrote. “I want the freedom to use any kind of language – whatever I feel is appropriate to get the point across.” To this end, the forms of her poems shift: amoeba-shaped stanzas, traditional left-aligned poems, maths equations, multiple-choice questions, and – a form she can be credited with pioneering and developing – American Sonnets. Coleman’s shocking, sensuous American Sonnet sequences are crammed. They’re not meant to seem easy. They are the usual fourteen lines but, in Coleman fashion, march to their own drum, rejecting traditional metres and rhyme-schemes, constrained instead by rules the poet has set. Their world is one of “recalcitrant darling[s]”, “cash-starved seducer[s]”, where “every lover perishes with/ the memory of her sculpted skin.”
Coleman received various awards throughout her lifetime, including a Guggenheim Fellowship, but she wasn’t acclaimed in the highest rungs of the poetry ladder. Yet her influence is clear through the American zeitgeist in today’s literary poet-stars such as Terrance Hayes (who edited this collection, and wrote the award-winning American Sonnets for My Past and Future Assassin), Morgan Parker and Danez Smith. Wicked Enchantment is emphatic, explosive, and, if persisted through, a lesson on reimagining the place and usefulness of anger in art and in life.

PHOENIX, May 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- In support of National Nurses Week, Assisted Living Locators, a nationwide senior placement and referral franchisor, is offering nurses a 10% discount on their initial franchise fee to encourage and honor aspiring nurse entrepreneurs.
"The chaos of COVID-19 has resulted in many nurses considering leaving their jobs due to burnout, overwork, and high-stress levels," said Angela Olea, RN Assisted Living Locators CEO. "Opening your own business and relying on your skills as a nurse, can be a new opportunity. If you're an aspiring nurse entrepreneur, we encourage you to consider franchising."
She added that the Assisted Living Locators franchise system enables nurses to branch out from a traditional hospital role to be their own boss, make their own hours, and have unlimited earning potential, all while making a positive impact on seniors in their community.
"We have many nurse franchisees that have made the transition and now have thriving, growing businesses," said Olea.
Assisted Living Locators Arizona franchisee Lori Sears is a Registered Nurse in the senior healthcare industry helping families for more than 15 years in her community. "My knowledge as a nurse gives my clients the trust and confidence that I'm providing the right care solution," said Sears.
Patricia Russell, Assisted Living Locators Washington D.C. franchisee, has 25 years' experience as a long-term care nursing administrator before joining the company. "With my nursing experience and this franchise opportunity, I have helped many seniors and their families transition back into the community living with dignity and a better quality of life," said Russell.
Assisted Living Locators is a nurse-friendly franchisor with an affordable, low-cost investment and a comprehensive training and mentorship platform, according to Olea. With 140 franchisees in 36 states and the District of Columbia, the company is ranked in Entrepreneur's 2021 Franchise 500® and the Inc. 5000 list of the nation's fastest growing private companies.
Olea stated that her company is addressing the needs of a soaring aging population. She noted that every day until 2030, 10,000 Baby Boomers will turn 65 and seven out of ten of them will require long-term care services and support, making it a growing industry sector.

9-year-old found dead near his home’s shed
NEW KENSINGTON, Pa. (WPXI) - A community is devastated after a 9-year-old boy was found dead Wednesday.
No one has yet been charged in the death of Azuree Charles, but the county’s district attorney confirms there is a person of interest, although she won’t specify who or what their relationship is to the child.
In the meantime, on Thursday afternoon, police picked up Azuree’s father. They had a warrant out for Jean Charles for a simple assault and child endangerment case from November.
He is accused of punching his son in the eye, causing bruising. He was denied bail.
“We are unified in solving this homicide, and I really cannot stress that enough,” said Nicole Ziccarelli, the Westmoreland County district attorney.
As the investigation presses on, officers spent the day canvassing the neighborhood.
On Thursday night, hundreds in the East Ken Manor community came to remember Azuree.
“He was honestly a super nice person, and I can’t believe someone would do that to him,” said his friend, Azalynn Lookhart.
Just days prior to Azuree’s death, “we used to ride bikes together and we used to play together,” said his friend, Zariyah Carter.
The news also hit Azuree’s third-grade teacher especially hard.
“He was the most innocent, sweet, kind and caring child that I have ever met,” Brian Heidenreich said.
People said under no circumstance should they have to hold a vigil for a child in the first place.
“You never have to hurt a child, I don’t care who you are. There are safe places for these kids. Look at this, this is our future. We have to love them, no matter what!” neighbor Tasha Williams said.

Colombian drug lord ‘Otoniel’ pleads not guilty in US court
One of Colombia’s most notorious drug lords pleaded not guilty to trafficking charges in a New York court Thursday following his extradition to the United States.
Dairo Antonio Usuga, known as “Otoniel,” did not ask for bail during the arraignment in Brooklyn.
The 50-year-old Usuga was the leader of Colombia’s largest narco-trafficking gang, known as the Gulf Clan.
The United States accuses Usuga and the Gulf Clan of illegally bringing at least 73 tons of cocaine into the country between 2003 and 2012.
He was the most-wanted person in Colombia until he was arrested last October in the northwest of the country after a massive military operation.
On Wednesday afternoon, a convoy of five bulletproof police vehicles transported him from a prison in the capital Bogota to a military airport, where he was handed over to US Drug Enforcement Administration officials.
He landed in New York around 11:30 PM (0330 GMT Thursday).
Usuga wore orange prison garb and was handcuffed during his first appearance in the Brooklyn federal court.
He has been charged with criminal enterprise and international cocaine manufacturing and distribution.
Usuga asked to be held in detention until his trial and judge Vera Scanlon set a date of June 2 for the defendant’s next court appearance.

Family mistakes coyote pup for dog, takes it home
(CNN) - A Massachusetts family took home what they thought was a lost dog, only to later realize it was actually a coyote pup.
They called a wildlife center for help.
The pup is a young male who was separated from his family, the center said.
Health officials helped determine the coyote, fortunately, did not pose a risk of rabies exposure.
Coyotes are a rabies vector species and if any of the family members had been bitten, scratched, or had extended contact with the pup, it would have been euthanized and tested.
It is recovering in isolation but will soon be joined by a foster sibling.
The pups will be raised together and given a chance to grow and learn natural behaviors in large, outdoor caging.

What is the multiverse? The idea that the universe we inhabit is just one of many parallel universes gets a superhero shout-out in “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,” the latest movie based on Marvel comic-book characters.
And in the opinion of Brian Greene, a theoretical physicist at Columbia University, giving some screen time to the multiverse isn’t such a bad thing — even if the plot has some horror-movie twists.
“I think it’s really good if some of these ideas are brought out in a variety of different ways,” Greene says in the latest episode of the Fiction Science podcast, which focuses on the realm where science and technology intersect with fiction and popular culture.
“Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” portrays the multiverse as a cross between a funhouse and a haunted house. One scene shows the mage and his protege plunging through a dizzying succession of universes as if they were falling through a kaleidoscope.
The idea of traveling from one parallel universe to another is the one big thing that the movie gets wrong, Greene said.
“That is not something which naturally emerges from the mathematics,” he said. “I should say there are various flavors of multiverse. … In the vast majority of these, it’s not that I could get in a rocket ship and travel out and visit another universe in the multiverse.”
So why do physicists think that other universes exist? Greene said extra dimensions and parallel universes provide ways to make sense out of theories that don’t quite make sense without them. For example, the equations that describe spacetime work most elegantly if they’re expressed in terms of 10 or 11 dimensions, rather than the three spatial dimensions and the one time dimension we perceive.
Dark energy — a diffuse, repulsive force that appears to contribute to the accelerating expansion of our universe — also raises a cosmic conundrum that the multiverse could explain. “When we use the observations to determine how much of this dark energy [is] filling space, the number we get is really odd in the natural units. It’s like a point-zero-zero-zero … 122 zeroes and a one,” Greene said.
Why such an odd non-zero number? “Well, in many of our theories, each of the universes populating a multiverse would have some dark energy, but the amount would vary from universe to universe,” Greene said. “And so if there are enough universes, then one universe among that vast collection will have the amount of dark energy that we observe.”
It’s not inconceivable that some of those universes could be rough approximations of our own, perhaps with a 2 instead of a 1 at the end of that 123-digit string. And in that case, there could be different versions of Brian Greene and Alan Boyle in those universes, chatting about the Earth-838 version of the Doctor Strange movie.
“If my particular collection of particles repeats out there — including the particles making up my brain, making up my memories, making up my thoughts — then that collection of particles somewhere out there in the multiverse will think that it is me, and it really will be me,” Greene said. “When people hear that, they’re like, OK, now we’re in Crazyville.”
Could future discoveries put multiverse theories on firmer footing? One possibility is that studies of the cosmic microwave background radiation — sometimes called the afterglow of the Big Bang — will point to anomalies suggestive of a collision between two universes.
Greene said the Large Hadron Collider, which is gearing up to smash protons together at record energy levels, serves as a “better example” of an experiment that could produce evidence of extra dimensions.
“The idea was, slam proton against proton. From the debris that’s created, the math suggests that some of that debris could drift out of our dimensions and get crushed down into the other dimensions. And if that happened, we would know it because the debris would take away some energy,” he said.
That hasn’t been seen so far — but could something pop up at higher energies? “We don’t know what the data is going to find,” Greene said.
Like Doctor Strange, Greene seems to have a knack for getting caught up in the mysteries of the multiverse. The current focus of his theoretical work has to do with the statistical distribution of different types of possible universes. And he’s also working on a film adaptation of his latest book, “Until the End of Time” (which I wrote about in 2020).
“That book for me is a real synthesis of a whole lifetime of thinking about questions that are scientific, of course, but also go into the questions that we as human beings have asked since we could ask questions,” Greene said. “Like, why are we here? What’s the nature of consciousness, and what actually is religion? … Where’s the universe going as we look from today toward the future, and what does that tell us about the things that matter to us most?”
Delving into such questions just might win Brian Greene the title of Doctor Strange in some corners of the multiverse — and I told him so.
“I’ll take that as a compliment,” he replied with a laugh.

Greene is co-founder and chairman of the World Science Festival, which has been producing online video presentations on way-out science topics during the coronavirus pandemic and could resume its schedule of in-person events as early as this fall.

MIHAIL KOGALNICEANU AIR BASE, Romania (AP) — Delivering good cheer — and 5 gallons of ketchup — Jill Biden thanked U.S. troops deployed to Romania as a check against Russian aggression for their service, as she began a four-day trip to Europe to see first hand the refugee crisis caused by Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.
After flying overnight from Washington, the first lady arrived at Mihail Kogalniceanu Air Base in Romania, near the Black Sea, in time to help serve Friday dinner to U.S. service members stationed there. About 1,600 of the several thousand U.S. troops President Joe Biden deployed to eastern Europe in the leadup to the Russia-Ukraine war were sent to the base, which is about 60 miles (100 kilometers) from Romania’s border with Ukraine.
Jill Biden served mac and cheese and baked potatoes for the troops — and encouraged them not to skip out on the greens — before greeting small groups of servicemembers at tables in the base dining facility. She delivered bottles of ketchup to the soldiers, responding to a shortage of the condiment on the base, eliciting cheers from the troops.
“I know it’s hard on your families,” she told one servicemember, referencing her own experience when her son Beau Biden deployed to Iraq.
For weeks, Jill Biden has been transfixed by the news coming out of Ukraine, by the bombings and scenes of “parents weeping over their children’s broken bodies in the streets,” as she said in a recent speech.
Now Biden is using her second solo overseas trip to get an up-close look at the Ukrainian refugee crisis by visiting Romania and Slovakia, where she will spend Mother’s Day meeting with displaced families in a small Slovakian village on the border with Ukraine.
“It’s so important to the president and to me that the Ukrainian people know that we stand with them,” Jill Biden told reporters traveling with her Thursday night, She said earlier in the week she wants the refugees to know “their resilience inspires me.”
NATO allies Romania and Slovakia border Ukraine and have taken in some of the millions of mostly women and children who fled after Russia invaded Ukraine in late February, triggering Europe’s largest refugee crisis since World War II.
Biden also will use her four days in Europe to highlight issues she promotes at home, such as support for U.S. service members, education and the welfare of children.
The centerpiece of the first lady’s trip comes Sunday — Mother’s Day — when the mother of three meets with displaced Ukrainians who sought refuge across the border in Slovakia.
Biden’s daughter, Ashley Biden, had planned to accompany her mother to Europe, but backed out after learning Thursday that she was a close contact of someone who tested positive for COVID-19, said Michael LaRosa, the first lady’s spokesperson. Ashley Biden tested negative, LaRosa said.
“I can only imagine the grief families are feeling,” Jill Biden said this week. “I know that we might not share a language, but I hope that I can convey, in ways so much greater than words, that their resilience inspires me, that they are not forgotten, and that all Americans stand with them still.”
The first lady also will meet during the trip with humanitarian aid workers, educators, government officials and U.S. embassy personnel, the White House said.
Nearly 6 million Ukrainians, mostly women and children, have fled their country since Russia’s invasion, according to the U.N. refugee agency. Many have resettled in next-door countries, like Romania and Slovakia, or have gone elsewhere in Europe to try to rebuild their lives.
More than 850,000 Ukrainians have entered Romania since the invasion, while nearly 400,000 have crossed into Slovakia, according to government figures from those countries.
Biden has long displayed an interest in the plight of refugees around the world.
In 2011, when her husband was vice president, she traveled to drought-stricken east Africa to visit with Somali famine refugees at the Dadaab camp in Kenya. In 2017, she visited refugees in Chios, Greece, as part of work by the aid organization Save The Children, on whose board she served.
Some refugee advocates said Biden’s trip will send the message that the United States takes seriously its humanitarian commitment to the Ukrainian people.
“Every first lady has a far-reaching platform to raise awareness and this trip will be an important tool for mobilizing additional support for those forced to flee their homeland,” said Krish O’Mara Vignarajah, president and CEO of Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service and formerly a policy director to first lady Michelle Obama.
Biden’s trip will be the latest to the region by a U.S. government representative following recent visits to Kyiv, Ukraine’s capital, by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Secretary of State Antony Blinken to meet with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
President Biden visited Ukrainian refugees during a stop in Poland in March. That’s the closest he’s been to Ukraine. The White House has said there are no current plans for him to visit Kyiv.
After her time with the U.S. service members, Jill Biden was set to spend Saturday in Bucharest, Romania’s capital, being briefed on humanitarian efforts, meeting with Romanian first lady Carmen Iohannis and touring a school where Ukrainian refugee students are enrolled before she departs for Slovakia. The first lady is a community college English professor.
On Sunday, she heads to Kosice, Slovakia, to visit a city-operated refugee center and a public school that also hosts Ukrainian refugee students, where she will spend time with Ukrainian and Slovakian mothers and children as they participate in Mother’s Day activities. Afterward, she will travel to the Slovakia-Ukraine border crossing in Vysne Nemecke, Slovakia.
The White House declined to comment on whether she will cross the border and enter Ukraine.
She’ll also visit a small Greek Catholic chapel in Vysne Nemecke that serves refugees.
Monday brings a meeting with Slovakian President Zuzana Caputova, the country’s first female president, before Biden heads back to Washington.
The first lady has shown her support the Ukrainian people in several ways. She wore a sunflower — Ukraine’s national flower — on her mask and a dress sleeve and traveled to a Tennessee hospital to visit with Ukrainian children flown there for cancer treatment.
She had Ukraine’s ambassador to the U.S., Oksana Markarova, sit with her during President Biden’s State of the Union address in March, and she went to the Army’s Fort Campbell in Kentucky to visit with the families of U.S soldiers who were deployed to Europe to assist with the Ukraine crisis.
The trip is the first lady’s second overseas by herself. She flew to Tokyo last year to represent the United States at the opening of the Olympic Games. | https://www.whittierdailynews.com/2022/05/06/jill-biden-visits-europe-will-meet-with-ukrainian-refugees/ | 2022-05-06T16:30:01Z | https://www.whittierdailynews.com/2022/05/06/jill-biden-visits-europe-will-meet-with-ukrainian-refugees/ | true | 22 |
"It's too much," Sharon Van Etten sings on We've Been Going About This All Wrong, "but I'll try." Well, yes. You don't really need to know the specifics of Van Etten's recent experiences to relate, to understand the coexistence of overwhelming fatigue and resigned commitment she expresses. On her sixth album, much of which was written in the sustained trauma of the past two years, Van Etten is asking herself the same questions we've all been asking: How do we take care of each other when it feels like the world is ending? In the face of climate catastrophe, systemic injustice, a global pandemic or other earth-shattering forces outside our control, does it even seem possible to nurture relationships with ourselves, our families and our communities? Van Etten has long known how to match stories of confusion, hurt or fear with a powerful, surefooted delivery; her songs sound like self-preservation even when they tell of self-doubt. Here, she turns her gaze towards the wreckage and offers a tribute to how impossible and necessary it feels, now and always, to keep investing in our care for each other.
Over the last 13 years, Van Etten's albums have grown in scope from the spare, acoustic sound of her first few releases to the ambitious, bold palette of 2019's Remind Me Tomorrow. That release came after Van Etten took some time away from music; in the preceding years, she wrote a film score, got into acting, went back to school to study psychology and became a mother, all of which inspired that record's fearless, confident sound. Then came some changes that were outside Van Etten's control. She moved her family from New York, where she'd lived for 15 years, to California, just in time for the pandemic to force everyone inside. (She also planned to have a wedding in May of 2020; the pandemic botched that plan, too.) She told NME that the move was motivated by a desire to "learn how to diversify" her music career, so she wouldn't have to be so reliant on touring. Suddenly, touring wasn't even a possibility.
Stuck inside, Van Etten wrote, recorded and produced much of We've Been Going About This All Wrong in her home studio. The album's sound is less adventurous than Remind Me Tomorrow, but sturdier and sonically focused, reflecting the aching anxiety and claustrophobia of the questions she confronts. There's a sense of interiority to these songs: On "Darkness Fades'' and "Anything," she's watching the sunrise after a sleepless night; on "Mistakes," she's dancing at home with her family; she sings to her son directly on "Home To Me" and "Far Away." On several songs, she articulates the strange paradox of domestic partnership during lockdown: never being out of one another's eyesight, but feeling emotionally miles away. "Come back," she howls on one song; "baby, don't turn your back to me," she pleads in another.
Van Etten isn't thinking exclusively within the confines of her home, though. "I'll Try" references the protests during the summer of 2020; in an email to fans, she describes the song as being about the "protection and comfort of the upperclass" and their unkept promises of action. "Born," she says in that email, was inspired by "anger and frustration about the things that haven't changed," including gun violence and climate change. "I wanted to break / Something like an innocent child," she sings, "Walking by fire / Not another bullet in vain." That song builds to an epic crescendo, with Van Etten's wordless voice piercing through layers of drums, strings, synthesizers and guitar. Several songs on the record feature this kind of powerful, emotional build; often on this record, Van Etten moves at an unhurried pace through despair or frustration towards conviction, if not resolution.
Van Etten chose not to put out any singles ahead of We've Been Going About This All Wrong's release. "I still believe in the idea of an album," she told Rolling Stone; she hopes listeners will listen to the record in its entirety to understand the scope of its story. Her album bio calls the decision to release the album this way a "subtle act of control," and given the powerlessness Van Etten confronts across the record, it makes sense. In the face of time, trauma and loss, it's understandable to try to hold more tightly to the things within your grasp — to be painstaking about your work, to be exacting about your vision. Care doesn't just animate the lyrics of these songs, but also the choices Van Etten made in creating and releasing the record. "I tend to think of all art ... as related to care," the writer Maggie Nelson says in her recent book On Freedom, "if 'care' means the patient labor – the aesthetic care – that artistic endeavor demands." The choices to write and record by herself, in her own space, and to release the album as one whole project — these are Van Etten's persistent demonstrations of what it means to care, too.
Despite our best efforts, we can still hit the limits of our care, and We've Been Going About This All Wrong also honors these moments. On the sweeping ballad "Anything," Van Etten describes the numb exhaustion that comes from bearing witness to the world's horrors. "I couldn't feel anything," she repeats wearily, in a song filled with fitful sleep and coping mechanisms. But even that song attests to how our connection to each other can bring us back to reality ("You love him by the stove light in your arms," she sings, a line she says she wrote about a tender moment cooking dinner with her partner). We've Been Going About This All Wrong isn't an album about hopelessness, after all, and in its last few tracks, the balance shifts towards cautious optimism. Van Etten wrote the final song, "Far Away," to remind her son of her love for him when she's out on the road. "I'll be here," she tells him, "not only when you feel long lost" — a reminder that our attention to each other, even when it is all we can offer, is a worthy gift.

Tom Brady has won 35 postseason games, by far the most in NFL history. He admits he got lucky in the first one.
Brady’s first postseason win, with the 2001 Patriots, featured the infamous “tuck rule” in which the officials on the field ruled that he fumbled, only to have replay overturn it to an incomplete pass. More than 20 years later, Brady posted a video on Twitter yesterday admitting it could have been a fumble.
“The Tuck Rule Game against the Raiders,” Brady said, pausing to look around before whispering, “it might have been a fumble.”
Brady followed that up with another post saying, “I said might. Such a tough call. No choice but to respect the officials probably correct decision.”
Brady also said this year that he thinks he would have been Drew Bledsoe’s backup in 2002 if not for the tuck rule propelling the Patriots to the Super Bowl. It was one of the great strokes of luck in NFL history that the officials overturned what even Brady admits might have been a fumble.

Ed Ross
Good morning, Jody. And good morning everyone. Welcome to our first quarter 2022 earnings conference call. On today's call I’ll start with a review of our first quarter performance and our portfolio at quarter-end, then offer you an update of our views on deal activity in the lower middle market. Shelby will cover the first quarter financial results and our liquidity position. Once we have completed our prepared remarks, we'll be happy to take your questions.
During the first quarter with deal activity in the lower middle market at reasonably healthy levels, we grew our debt portfolio through a combination of our strong relationships with deal sponsors. Our industry knowledge and our differentiated perspective on financing solutions. While global supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures on input cost labor and freight continue to weigh on many businesses operations and profitability we found solid opportunities to fit our strategy of investing in high quality, lower middle market businesses and possess resilient business models that generate excess levels of cash flow to service debt and then have positive launch from outlooks.
Adjusted net investment income which we define as net investment income excluding any capital gain incentive fee attributable to the realized and unrealized gains and losses was $10.6 million or $0.43 per share compared to $11.2 million or $0.46 per share last year.
Net asset value was steady at $48.5 million or $19.91 per share reflecting solid operating performance in net realized gains along with increased total dividend payout for the first quarter.
As you may recall last quarter, the board of directors recognizing the extremely strong portfolio performance and exceptionally high level of net realized gains in 2021 increased the base dividend from $0.32 per share to $0.36 per share and increased the supplemental dividend calculation from 50% of surplus income generated by our portfolio to 100%.
Fidus paid a base quarterly dividend of $0.36 per share, and a supplemental cash dividend of $0.17 per share for a total dividend of $0.53 per share during the first quarter. For the second quarter on May 2 2022, the Board of Directors declared a base dividend of $0.36 cents per share and a supplemental dividend of $0.07 per share, equal to 100% of the surplus and adjusted NII over the base dividend from the first quarter, which will be payable on June 24 2022 to stockholders of record as of June 10 2022.
In terms of originations and repayments, after five consecutive quarters of elevated levels of repayments, we had net originations in the quarter of $91.2 million. We invested $114.4 million in debt and equity securities, all of which was invested in debt securities and new portfolio companies. Following a trend that had started well before the pandemic, the largest percentage of debt investments was in first lien debt, amounting to $76.7 million for the first quarter.
In terms of new portfolio companies, we invested $101.2 million in seven of them, consisting of $10.8 million in first lien debt and common equity in AOM Intermediate Holdco, LLC doing businesses all over media leading provider of alternative out of home advertising across the C-store & gas station, retail, truckside & transit markets, among others. $14.4 million in subordinated debt in common and preferred equity and CIH Intermediate, LLC, a technology based risk management firm that provides education and customized price risk management services to businesses affected by volatility in the agriculture markets. $14.5 million in first lien debt and Fishbowl Solutions LLC, a leading provider of inventory management and manufacturing software, only $2.4 million in first lien debt and common equity and Micronics filtration Holding Inc. doing business as Micronics Engineered Filtration Group Inc. a global provider of aftermarket and OEM filtration equipment and consumables for use in mining, chemical, wastewater and various other industrial end markets.
$15 million in second lien debt and Quest Software US Holdings Inc., a global cybersecurity, data intelligence, and IT operations management software provider. $19.1 million in first lien debt subordinated debt and preferred equity and Tedia Company LLC, a leading manufacturer of high-purity solvents and chemicals focused on laboratory, pharmaceutical and biotech end markets. And $5 million in first lien debt and common equity in Zonkd, LLC, a leading supplier of products and services to the home furnishings industry.
In terms of repayments and realizations in the first quarter receipt proceeds totaling $23.2 million, of which $12.1 million, or little more than half of the total was due to the monetization of equity investments. Terms of sales and exits we received payment info of $6.8 million on our second lien debt and Mirage Trailers. In addition received a distribution of $2.5 million and realized a gain of point $3 million on our equity investments related to the sale of the business.
We receive proceeds of $2.2 million and realized the gain of $0.2 million related to the sale of Frontline Food Services. And we received proceeds of $7.1 million in realized a gain of $6.1 million related to the exit of our equity investment in SpendMend.
Subsequent to the end of the quarter, we invested a total of $19.5 million in two new portfolio companies. We invested $8.5 million in first lien debt and made a commitment up to $1 million of additional first lien debt. In Choice Technology Solutions LLC, doing business as Choice Merchant Solutions LLC, a leading omnichannel global payments platform. We invested $11 million in second lien debt of Virtex enterprises, LP, a leading vertically integrated electronic manufacturing services provider.
We also received $10.9 million in repayment consisting of payment in full of $8.8 million, including a prepayment penalty on our first lien debt investment in Comply365 LLC. We received a distribution of $2.4 million from our equity investment in TransGo, and realized a gain of $1.9 million related to the sale of the business. The fair value of the portfolio at quarter end was $812 million equal to 112.8% of cost, reflecting the underlying solid performances of our portfolio companies and net originations for the quarter.
We ended the first quarter with 74 active portfolio companies and 10 companies that have sold their underlying operations. Including net originations of $91.2 million, our overall portfolio remains healthy and well-structured to produce recurring income, and through our equity investments to provide us not only with incremental profits, but also a reasonable margin of safety.
From a risk perspective, our portfolio including a net addition of four portfolio companies remains well positioned for the current investment environment. Our residual investments in Green Fiber and K2 are non-accrual. With net originations primarily in first lien debt during the quarter, our portfolio on a fair value basis remains weighted in favor of first lien debt.
In terms of the total portfolio mix on a fair value basis, net investments increased 80% of the total compared to 77% as of December 31 2021. Total yield on debt decreased from 12.3% last quarter to 11.9%. Our outlook for 2022 is unchanged from the perspective we shared with you last quarter. We still expect continued healthy deal activity in the lower middle market driven by both M&A and re-financings, and we continue to see several opportunities to monetize equity investments, and some of our portfolio companies have initiated strategic alternative discussions.
Having grown our debt portfolio during the first quarter after five consecutive quarters of heightened repayments, we believe we are well positioned to further increase income producing assets going forward. In doing so, we will adhere as always to our proven underwriting standards, our focus on high quality businesses, and our long term goal of generating attractive risk adjusted returns while delivering value to our stockholders.
Now I'll turn the call over to Shelby to provide some details on our financial and operating results. Shelby?
Shelby Sherard
Thank you, Ed. And good morning everyone. I'll review our first quarter results in more detail and close with comments on our liquidity position. Please note I will be providing comparative commentary versus the prior quarter Q4 2021.
Total investment income was $20.5 million for the three months ended March 31. A $3.6 million decrease from Q4 primarily due to a $1.6 million decrease in interest income including pic, a $1.4 million decrease in fee income and a $0.6 million decrease in dividend income. The decrease in interest income was driven by a decrease in average debt investment balances outstanding given higher volume of repayments in Q4 and new Q1 investments being more back end weighted in addition to lower weighted average yield on debt in Q1 versus Q4.
Total expenses including income tax provision were $10.2 million for the first quarter, approximately $11.5 million lower than the prior quarter primarily due to a $9.3 million decrease in the capital gains incentive fee accrual. Note the capital gains incentive fee is accrued for GAAP purposes, however, is only payable annually in arrears to the extent that cumulative realized gains exceed realized losses and unrealized appreciation.
Excluding the accrued capital gains incentive fees, total expenses in Q1 were $9.9 million a $2.2 million decrease versus Q4 due to a $1.6 million decrease in income incentive fees and the annual excise tax accrual which was $0.5 million in Q4.
In Q1, we repaid $20 million of SBA debentures in our second SBIC fund and borrowed 41.5 million of SBA debentures in our third SBIC fund. So, net incremental SBA debentures of 21.5 million. We ended the quarter with 395.9 million of debt outstanding, comprised of 128.5 million of SBA debentures, 250 million of unsecured notes and 17.4 million of secured borrowings.
Our debt-to-equity ratio as of March 31 was 0.8 times or 0.6 times statutory leverage excluding exempt SBA debentures. The weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was 3.7% as of March 31. Net investment income or NII for the three months ended March 31 was $0.42 per share versus $0.10 per share in Q4.
Adjusted NII which excludes any capital gains, incentive fee accruals or reversals attributable to realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments, was $0.43 per share in Q1 versus $0.49 per share in Q4. For the three months ended March 31, we recognized approximately 6.9 million of net realized gains, primarily from our equity investments in SpendMend and Mirage Trailers.
Turning now to portfolio statistics. As of March 31, our total investment portfolio had a fair value of 812 million. Our average portfolio company investment on a cost basis was 9.7 million, which excludes investments in 10 portfolio companies that sold their operations are in the process of winding down. We have equity investments in approximately 82.1% of our portfolio of companies with an average fully diluted equity ownership of 4.3%.
Weighted Average effective yield on debt investments was 11.9% as of March 31. The weighted average yield is computed using the effective interest rates for debt investments at cost, including the accretion of original issue, discount and loan origination fees, but excluding investments on nonaccrual, if any.
Now I'd like to briefly discuss our available liquidity. As of March 31, our liquidity and capital resources included cash of $86.1 million, 21.5 million of available SBA debentures and 100 million of availability on our line of credit, resulting in total liquidity of approximately 207.6 million.
Now we'll turn the call back to Ed for concluding comments. Ed?
Ed Ross
Thanks, Shelby. As always, I'd like to thank our team and the Board of Directors at Fidus for their dedication and hard work and our shareholders for their continued support. I will now turn the call over to Hilda for Q&A. Hilda?
Question-and-Answer Session
Operator
Thank you.[Operator Instructions]. And we have a question from Matt Jayden [ph] from Raymond James. Please go ahead.
Unidentified Analyst
Hey, Adam, Shelby morning, and hope all is well. Ed, wanted to start out on the credit outlook, be interested kind of how you see the credit outlook for year end 22 today versus how it changed versus, maybe six or nine months ago?
Ed Ross
Sure, great question. Obviously, there's a there's a lot going on in the world today, whether it's geopolitical or obviously inflation and rising interest rates. But for us, obviously, the portfolio complexion has changed. For us, from senior debt portfolio is now almost 70% of our data portfolio. So that's a good thing, as we think about the ebbs and flows of different businesses were invested in. But what I would suggest is, our portfolio, the quality of our portfolio today is maybe as good as it's ever been, we feel great about what we've seen in their ability to deal with the issues of today. And so obviously, we're being very thoughtful and deliberate as we move forward as we originate new investments, but also as we manage our portfolio. But we great about the quality of the portfolio today and don't expect any material changes to the negative at this point.
Unidentified Analyst
Got it. That's helpful. Maybe following up on the portfolio composition, surprising given the healthy level of originations in the corner, it looks like equity balance at cost was pretty much flat. I'd be interested in kind of any high level color on what you're seeing in terms of deal flow for equity co-invest opportunities.
Ed Ross
Sure. I think if I'm not mistaken, we did make incremental equity investments last quarter the tune of just shy of $5 million. So we're continuing to invest in the or make co-investments in our portfolio of companies when it makes sense. And doing it to a degree that obviously we're comfortable with and we like. So our cost basis has not changed materially. Nor is our fair value something we're you know, very, very proud of. We would, we do see a fair bit of M&A activity still taking place, a large majority of the activity in Q1 was M&A driven, and we are also seeing continued M&A activity from both a realization perspective as well as a new investment perspective. So we would expect that that trend to continue. So as I think about equity as a percentage of costs for us, as we move forward, I think10%, or a little less is, is the goal for us. And that's what we would expect going forward.
Unidentified Analyst
Great. Last one for me just, again kind of following up on the Q1 originations. I'd be interested in that. Do you think any of that was kind of a pull forward from what was already a strong Q4? Or was that primarily, underwritten in Q1?
Ed Ross
Sure, great question. I mean, let me talk about the market for a second and also talk about originations and, and repayments for that matter. But overall, what I would say is, that's an activity was solid, though there was pull forward from Q4 for sure, probably two or three of those investments, really, were originated in Q1 and just took longer to close. What we're seeing in Q2, this thus far reflects, pretty similar stance. I think deals are maybe a little bit harder to get over the finish line. There are potentially more issues out there, like performance issues, in some cases that get in the way of deals, but we expect continued pretty good activity levels, nevertheless. So the market today seems to be primarily focused on companies that that have not been meaningfully impacted by COVID-19 or the supply chain issues and overall inflation dynamics that obviously many companies are experiencing and facing.
And, in fact, what we're, we're continuing to see a premium paid for those businesses that are operating without meaningful incident or concern of those issues. There's obviously a fair bit of pent up demand and a lot of liquidity designed to invest in high quality assets. In fact, I would say private equity and private debt, war chest for lack of a better word, or near record levels today. So, as I would, as I sit here today, I would suggest activity levels are still reasonably solid in the lower middle market, but obviously, nowhere near last year.
From an investment originations perspective, we most of our originations are first lien investments; obviously, we're also making, opportunistic second lien and subordinated debt investments in superlative companies and situations. And we expect to continue to do that. As we move forward, we expect Q2 be an overall solid origination quarter, but maybe not as strong as Q1 in the aggregate. We've made two new platform investments so far this year, as I mentioned, and we, we do expect some additional origination activity this quarter, as well.
And having said all that, we know we're continuing to be very deliberate and careful, but at the same time taking advantage of the best opportunities that we're uncovering. And so from a repayment perspective, we are -- we're seeing very little on the debt side, and a little bit of that has to, has to do with that just our portfolio is much younger than it's been in the past. And we're not seeing anywhere near the activity levels that we saw last quarter, or last year, and we're expecting this quarter to kind of reflect the same thing as last quarter, which is a good thing. So hopefully, that's helpful on the market and overall origination and repayment activity.
Unidentified Analyst
Yes, certainly. That's it for me and Shelby I appreciate the time this morning.
Ed Ross
Thank you. Appreciate it Matt.
Operator
Thank you. Our next question comes from Ryan Lynch from KBW. Please go ahead.
Ryan Lynch
Hey, good morning, Ed and Shelby.
Ed Ross
Hey, good morning, Ryan.
Ryan Lynch
Hey, first question I just had was just on kind of how you guys are evaluating kind of the current marketplace. Obviously, there's some a lot of dynamics going around a lot of uncertainties in the broader economy today. Has that changed your investment focus on the types of businesses you guys are willing to invest in? Or are you guys just digging in further on those potential risks, because one of the issues I think is that a lot of especially with a lot of heavy inflation and labor issues is, is those are have just started in 2022. And, and the financial impacts haven't really are basically unknown on how that's going to go through. So how are you kind of managing those pretty big unknowns when you guys are looking to deploy capital today?
Ed Ross
Sure, it's a great question. Ryan, I think, for us, and thankfully, I think for sometimes most companies have had been working at adjusting to the, what I would call the new normal, and are finding ways to prosper. And what that means, in many cases, needing to raise prices to offset price increases. So having pricing power is a very important element of managing this risk. And thankfully, what we feel well positioned given almost all of our portfolio of companies have exhibited pricing power in this market.
So, first and foremost, I would say that, and thankfully, we've been focused on those companies that have more pricing power. Secondly, we do focus on businesses that have free cash flow businesses, no different than before, in a relatively stable demand characteristics. And I think that strategy has and will continue to serve as well, and help mitigate, some of the risks that you've highlighted. And then other pieces of the puzzle for us that are really important are investment, structuring, which is 40% to 60% equity cushions and somewhat a minimum depending on the situation in the company, and then, how we're underwriting is there's no change there from our perspective in terms of enterprise value, our level cushions, interest, coverage, and whatnot.
So again, we feel we're going to kind of stick to our knitting, focused on companies that operate in industries, we know well and the companies that are quite frankly being less affected or expected to be less affected by the environment that we're all living in. We also do focused on opportunistic situations where there's strong asset bases, and also we feel good about that strategy as we move forward as well. So hopefully, that's helpful. You there, Ryan.
Ryan Lynch
Yes, that's helpful. On the new terms for deals out specifically regarding yields and spreads. I'm just curious as risk free rates have continued to move higher, and obviously the forward curve shows them significantly higher than where they are today. Have you started seeing any pushback on spreads that that you guys are going to market with and/or hadn't started seeing borrowers start pushing for more fixed rate, debt solution versus floating rate, just love to hear your opinion on any changes and kind of the market dynamics right now, as you're approaching borrowers?
Ed Ross
Sure. Great question, Ryan. I’ll tell you in the lower middle market, we have not seen any real pushback on spreads at this point in time. But I do envision at some point, there'll be some compression. I don't think it'll be overly meaningful. But that's always the case, especially with competition out there. I would also say we have not seen a push for fixed rates, at least with regard to our first lien investments. So we have not seen any push or requirements to be competitive in the market from that perspective. So no real change. Obviously, there is a big, increase in short term rates this week. But again, as we're working today, and as we were over the last year, year and a half we have not seen any, any real push is there in our market.
Ryan Lynch
Okay. That's good to hear. I appreciate the time today. Thanks.
Ed Ross
Sure. Nice talking to you.
Operator
Thank you. Our next question comes from Bryce Rowe from Hovde Group. Please go ahead.
Bryce Rowe
Thanks. Good morning, Ed and Shelby.
Ed Ross
Good morning, Bryce, how are you?
Bryce Rowe
I'm good. Appreciate it. Let's see I'd maybe I'll start with you Shelby. Can you kind of just remind us, how you're viewing the SBA and the access to the future SBA debentures? Obviously, you've been a little bit more active here recently using those debentures. So if you could just kind of break down, what's left on to and how much more you have to go on three, even if there is some available beyond the 21.5 that you have available to you right now.
Shelby Sherard
Sure. So big picture, our second SBIC fund, we're currently in wind down mode. So that kind of means we'll opportunistically use cash proceeds from repayments as they come in, to kind of continue to pay down SBA debt and the second fund, and then the third fund, we are still within our investment period. And so again, opportunistically, as the pipeline grows and we have SBIC eligible investments, we'll seek to put those in the third fund. And so that's why you kind of saw the pay down that you did in the first quarter of fund to debt, and then borrowings under fund three debt because we were able to deploy more capital.
So at the end of March, on the third fund, we had about 78.5 million of SBA debentures outstanding. And so that fund can go up to 175 million, that's subject to certain SBA approvals, and a little bit further equity capital commitments, but we have plenty of room to grow on the third fund, but a little bit less than 100 million. And then on the second fund, we currently have 50 million. And again, you'll kind of probably see that come down, as we have to pay it. Next payment window will be September 1. And so we'll just evaluate, does it make sense to redeploy cash to the BDC and make investments there? Or does it make sense to continue to pay down debt over time?
Bryce Rowe
That's, that's a great rundown. I appreciate it. And then maybe another question for me, looking at spillover income obviously, it bumped up here in the quarter sounds like you'd get some more realized activity in the pipeline. Just just curious how you're thinking about that as it bumps higher prospects for maybe a special at some point in 22 or early 23? Just any, any color around that would be helpful? Thanks.
Ed Ross
Sure. Yes Bryce obviously, it's early in the year, if you will but obviously the same time, we did see a nice pop in our spillover position. We did not factor in our spillover position to the base dividend, or, obviously the supplemental given our new methodology. We are continuing to monitor the position at this point. There continues to be, as you know, uncertainty in the U.S., and we liked the idea of having a very large spillover position for a rainy day. And I think we're, but we're monitoring kind of the overall situation and, and are continuing to think about it as we move forward.
But right now, we're in a place where we don't need to do make any adjustments of any significance. And so, we, we like, like, the position we're in and we also like the fact that, we were able to raise the dividend in a very base dividend, a very meaningful way last quarter. And obviously, we'll continue to evaluate both the base and supplemental dividends as we move forward.
Bryce Rowe
Great, thanks for the time, guys.
Ed Ross
Thank you. Good luck to you Bryce.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday ruled out any alliance with the TRS in Telangana and launched a scathing attack on its president, K Chandrashekar Rao, saying he was acting like a "king" instead of a chief minister. Addressing the 'Rythu Sangharshana Sabha' — farmers ' rally organized to highlight their plight — Gandhi said as soon as the Congress forms its government in Telangana, farm loans up to Rs 2 lakh will be waived and farmers will get the right MSP (minimum support price) of crops.
In an apparent swipe at Rao, popularly known as KCR, he said that while the dream of Telangana's progress remained unfulfilled, only one family had "benefitted immensely" after the state was carved out of Andhra Pradesh. He asserted that going forward, the Congress would have no truck with the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) and that the assembly polls next year will be a direct fight between the Congress and the KCR-led party.
Gandhi said any Congressperson who wants an understanding with the TRS could either cross over to that party or the BJP. "Congress will not have any understanding with the person who ruined the dream of Telangana, betrayed it, and stole lakhs and crores (of rupees) from the youth and the poor," Gandhi said.
He also asserted that Congress knew it will suffer politically but it stood with the people of Telangana to give them a new state in 2014. The people of Telangana thought a government for the poor will be formed but it did not happen and today there is a "king" instead of a chief minister, he said.
Gandhi alleged that KCR was not listening to farmers but to his 2-3 "crony capitalist friends".

Anna Shevchenko waters the few surviving flowers outside her destroyed home in the Ukrainian town of Irpin on the outskirts of Kyiv. The house, built by the 35-year-old woman’s grandparents, was leveled during Russian bombing in late March.
But in her beloved flowerbed this week, some roses, lilies, peonies and daffodils survived, giving her hope. “It is new life. So I tried to save my flowers,” she said.
The house was left a pile of splintered wood, a closet filled with the family's dust- and debris-covered clothing visible amid the destruction. In one day, the family lost their house and Shevchenko’s father lost his leg to an explosion as he tried to flee Irpin.
Shevchenko’s flowers were among signs of Ukrainian resilience and resistance during a week of devastating death and loss in the war. In Irpin alone, block upon block of homes were destroyed.
In Zaporizhzhia, Vera Velakanova and Lyudmila Vondarenko were among the many residents who gathered in cemeteries on Sunday, the day Ukrainians mark the day of the dead. The women ate lunch at a table amid the tombstones in the Kapustyanyy cemetery.
Sunday was also the day that some 100 women, children and the elderly were the first to be evacuated from a steel plant in the strategic port of Mariupol where they had been under Russian bombardment for weeks along with about 2,000 Ukrainian soldiers in the tunnels beneath the Azovstal steelworks. They arrived in Zaporizhzhia a day later.
The week was also marked by horrific images that offered a rare glimpse of the death and atrocities of the war. In Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city, which has been under sustained Russian attack since the beginning of the war in late February, bodies were everywhere.
Among them was the charred corpse of a man, unidentifiable, propped on an anti-tank barrier made of crossed I-beams outside the town, which has been under the control of both sides in recent days.
Elsewhere, the body of another man lay face down in an apartment as Russian bombardments continued in a village recently retaken by Ukrainian forces near Kharkiv.

Ewan crashes out of contention in Giro d'Italia opener
By Laura Weislo published
Lotto Soudal rider sprinting in third, touched wheels with Girmay
The opening stage of the 2022 Giro d'Italia went from promising to disaster for Caleb Ewan (Lotto Soudal), who was sprinting in third position in the final metres of the finish at the Visegrád Citadel, when he touched wheels with Biniam Girmay (Intermarché-Wanty Gobert) and crashed.
Ewan, 27, was the lone pure sprinter to survive the multitude of attacks on the 5.6 kilometre finishing climb and fighting for the stage win and first maglia rosa against eventual winner Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Fenix) and runner-up Girmay when he ran his front wheel into the rear tyre of the Eritrean and fell sprawling to the tarmac.
The Lotto Soudal rider stayed down for several moments before getting up and struggling across the finish line 1:04 down on the stage winner. His team stated on social media that Ewan was able to ride to the team bus having suffered abrasions but avoided further injury and will be able to start Saturday's time trial in Budapest.
"Unfortunately, Caleb Ewan touched the back wheel of Girmay, which caused him to crash just before the finish line," Lotto Soudal stated. "Apart from several abrasions, Caleb came away without any severe injuries and will take the start in the ITT tomorrow."
Ewan's teammate, Belgian climber Harm Vanhoucke, also crashed in a separate incident with 6km to go on the opening stage.

Mohammad Ali (@ChaudhryMAli88) Published May 06, 2022 | 08:33 PM
The Pakistan Bar Council (PBC) and the Supreme Court Bar Association of Pakistan (SCBAP) on Friday condemned Omar Sarfraz Cheema, Governor Punjab's announcement to send a reference Lahore High Court (LHC) judge Justice Jawad Hassan to the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC).
ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 6th May, 2022 ) :The Pakistan Bar Council (PBC) and the Supreme Court Bar Association of Pakistan (SCBAP) on Friday condemned Omar Sarfraz Cheema, Governor Punjab's announcement to send a reference Lahore High Court (LHC) judge Justice Jawad Hassan to the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC).
Hafeez-Ur-Rehman Chaudhry, Vice-Chairman, PBC and Muhammad Ahsan Bhoon, President SCBAP said that Justice Jawad Hassan, was an independent, upright, honest and very competent Judge and was an asset for our superior judiciary and lawyers of Pakistan stand by with him.
They expressed it was very astonishing and alarming that the present Governor Punjab had constantly violated the Constitution, and was ridiculing the office of Governor, deviated from the Constitution and sabotaged the democratic value and norms which had never been happened earlier in the Country since in past such like mindset persons were not allowed to hold such a prestigious and higher Constitutional post and the Governor must be made answerable for his such like statements and actions and be asked under what authority had deviated from the Constitution.
They said that Justice Jawad Hassan was not only independent, honest ad competent judge but was an asset for the superior judiciary and the entire legal fraternity of the Country stands behind him.
They had also condemned the smear campaign launched against the judges and the judiciary in strongest possible terms and stated that no one would be allowed to malign the dignity and respect of judges for petty political gains and further vowed that if it did not stop, then the legal fraternity reserved every right to take punitive action so as to take wrongdoers to the task.

LAKE PRESTON, S.D. (AP) — Farmers in South Dakota says there's a reason for optimism as they head out to their fields to plant crops this spring.
Commodity markets are up 62% over the 10-year average.
Wayne Soren raises crops and cattle near Lake Preston.
“This is probably one of the most exciting seasons to begin in, in quite some time because the prices of crops are so high,” Soren tells South Dakota Public Broadcasting.
Although he’s optimistic as he drives his planter into his corn field, the third-generation farmer also has concerns, mainly about dry conditions.
“That’s one of the dark clouds that sits above. Are we going to get enough rain to grow a crop this year? ” Soren says.
Soren is not alone in his concern. According to U.S. Drought Monitor data, 71% of South Dakota was in drought conditions at the end of April.
But recent rain provided some relief.
“We got a large rain. Probably the biggest rain we’ve had in two years. Dams are completely full over the last three days. Yeah, we’re pretty much at max for soil moisture at the moment. I would say we got almost four inches… I was cautiously optimistic last time and I am wholly optimistic at the moment,” said Kimball farmer Adam Schindler.
Following the late-April rainstorms, the May 5th U.S. Drought Monitor data shows 69% of the state remains in drought conditions. | https://www.middletownpress.com/news/article/South-Dakota-farmers-optimistic-about-commodity-17154452.php | 2022-05-06T16:45:07Z | https://www.middletownpress.com/news/article/South-Dakota-farmers-optimistic-about-commodity-17154452.php | true | 11 |
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — The brother of Clemson football coach Dabo Swinney has been arrested and charged with sexual exploitation of a minor, according to South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson.
Henry Ervil Swinney III, 53, of Clemson, South Carolina, was arrested on April 23. The attorney general's release said investigators received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children that led them to Swinney.
Investigators say Swinney distributed child sexual abuse material. It is a second-degree felony charge that could bring up to 10 years in prison.
Swinney's case will be prosecuted by the attorney general's office.
Dabo Swinney, Clemson's head coach since the middle of the 2008 season, has addressed his brother's legal difficulties in the past. Henry Swinney was arrested in Florida in January 2017 as the Tigers were preparing for their 35-31 victory over Alabama in the national title game.
Dabo Swinney said then there are consequences for bad actions. “My family's no different than anybody else,” he said at the time.

Dead shark hung from ceiling at Florida high school is senior prank gone too far, police say
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. (WJXT) – Senior pranks are common in high schools this time of year, but police say what may have been a senior prank in Florida went too far.
A dead shark was found hanging over a stairwell at Ponte Vedra High School, where the mascot is a shark.
Sophomore Cooper Gottfried said he saw the shark Thursday morning and couldn’t believe it.
“I was going to first period and there was this massive shark hanging from the ceiling and it smelled really bad,” Gottfried said.
Students started sharing pictures of the shark on social media, saying it was a senior prank. But there could be some major consequences.
Both the St. John’s County Sheriff’s Office and the Florida Fish and Wildlife are investigating.
The school gave surveillance video to the sheriff’s office but won’t release the video publicly because it could impede the investigation. Any students found to be involved in the incident could face suspension or even expulsion. Criminal charges are also possible.
Custodians at the school took the shark down.

A massive Russian warship was reportedly struck by Ukrainian missiles earlier today in the latest blow to Vladimir Putin's war. The Admiral Makarov was believed to be ablaze after the strike.
A number of reports suggest it was close to Snake Island in the Black Sea and a rescue operation involving aircraft and boats was under way. Writing on Telegram, Ukrainian MP Oleksiy Goncharenko said the ship had been hit by his country's neptune missiles, reports the Mirror.
In his post, he wrote: "There is new information about another failure of the Russian fleet near our shores. Unofficial Russian sources report that the newest missile frigate Admiral Makarov is in trouble.
“It is equipped with modern air defence systems and is armed with Kalibr cruise missiles. Or was. The ship is badly damaged, but remains afloat. For now. We wait.”
Ukrainian official Anton Gerashchenko backed up the reports, saying: “Admiral Makarov frigate is on fire off the coast of Snake Island. “According to preliminary data, the ship was hit by Ukrainian Neptune missiles.
“Now enemy aviation is operating in the ship's disaster zone, and ships of the Russian Navy have come out of the temporarily occupied Crimea to help the sinking ship."
Further unconfirmed reports said the warship was hit by Ukrainian missiles near the Sevastopol naval plant in Crimea, on the Black Sea.
However Dumskaya, a prominent local news outlet from Odessa, reported: “The Operational Command South has not yet confirmed the defeat of an enemy ship near Snake island.”
The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine added a '+1' to their boats column in their daily report on Russian losses this morning, which they tweeted out. The Admiral Makarov is one of just three frigates of its class active in the Black Sea.
They added that Ukrainian planes were flying overhead with a rescue operation ongoing and that satellite images from the area seemingly confirmed the ship was burning. The significant damage to the Admiral Makarov would be a serious blow to Putin's forces.
Commissioned in only 2017, the Makarov is one of Russia's most modern combat warships and carries a crew of around 200 people it is thought. It is now one of the largest frigates Russia can currently make because Moscow traditionally has gotten its big marines engines from Ukraine.
It is armed with Kalibr missiles as well as torpedoes, a Ka-27 or Ka-31 helicopter and an Orlan-10 military drones. Flight trackers show a number of aircrafts and drones circling over the area of the Black Sea.
A report in Forbes said that Russian commanders were aware that the Admiral Makarov would be a Ukrainian target now.
It said: “In any event, it’s apparent Russian fleet commanders appreciate the danger. There’s evidence Admiral Makarov’s skipper has been taking pains to keep her away from the Ukrainian coast."
There are videos circulating on social media that claim to show the frigate going up in flames. This fresh blow comes not long after Russia's Black Sea flagship, the Moskva, was sunk. | https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/russian-warship-admiral-makarov-reportedly-7049150 | 2022-05-06T17:00:32Z | https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/russian-warship-admiral-makarov-reportedly-7049150 | false | 3 |
President Joe Biden is set to announce on Friday that five major U.S. manufacturers have made commitments to boost their reliance on small and medium American firms for 3D printing.
The White House said GE Aviation, Honeywell, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon and Siemens Energy have agreed to take part in the program, which Biden will highlight during a visit to United Performance Metals in Hamilton, Ohio.
The program is being unveiled by the White House as Biden heads to the industrial Midwest to press Congress to approve a stalled competition and innovation bill that the Democratic president says is critical to bolstering domestic manufacturing and helping solve a semiconductor shortage that has delayed production of life-saving medical devices, smartphones, video game consoles, laptops and other modern conveniences.
“I’m determined to make sure the United States holds the technological high ground in competition with other nations, especially China, as we move forward,” Biden said this week. His comments on the Bipartisan Innovation Act came during a visit Tuesday to an Alabama Lockheed Martin plant building Javelin antitank weapon systems.
GE Aviation and Raytheon set a goal of looking to small and medium firms for 50% of their requests for quotes for products requiring 3D printing or related technologies.
Siemens Energy committed to targeting 20% to 40% of externally sourced 3D print parts and will work with 10 to 20 small and medium firms to help improve their capability. Lockheed Martin has agreed to work with smaller suppliers on research to improve the use of 3D printing as an alternative to castings and forgings. Honeywell is offering technical assistance including part design, data generation, machine operation and post-processing to small and medium suppliers it works with.
The semiconductor chip problem has been building since coronavirus pandemic-related lockdowns shut down major Asian chip factories more than two years ago. Now it could extend past this year, despite the semiconductor industry’s efforts to catch up with demand.
There is bipartisan support for boosting domestic chip production, but lawmakers in the Senate and the House still need to negotiate over differences.
The House in February passed a version of the legislation that could pump $52 billion in grants and subsidies to the semiconductor industry to help boost U.S. production. The bill must now be reconciled with a Senate version passed eight months ago.
House Democrats also tucked in other priorities that have raised Republican concerns about the bill’s cost and scope.
The bill includes $8 billion for a fund that helps developing countries adjust to climate change; $3 billion for facilities to make the U.S. less reliant on Chinese solar components; $4 billion to help communities with significantly higher unemployment than the national average; and $10.5 billion for states to stockpile drugs and medical equipment.

BOONE COUNTY, Ind. (WXIN) — An Indiana man in jail awaiting trial in the death of his wife has won the Republican primary for a seat on a township board.
Andrew Wilhoite, of Boone County, received 60 votes (21.74%) in the GOP race for the Clinton Township board. He is one of three winners in the primary race along with Bradley J. Smith (39.86%) and Michael Young (38.41%).
Unless Wilhoite is convicted of a felony or withdraws before November, voters in Boone County can expect to see his name on the ballot in the upcoming general election.
In March, Wilhoite was charged with murder in connection with the death of his wife, Elizabeth “Nikki” Wilhoite.
Nikki had been reported missing by friends on March 25. When police initially showed up at the Wilhoite home to investigate, Wilhoite told them they had gotten into a fight the night before and Nikki was probably at her sister’s, according to court documents.
Police said they found blood in the master bedroom and bathroom and learned Nikki, who had recently successfully undergone chemo treatment, had filed for divorce on March 17.
After being questioned by Indiana State Police, a probable cause affidavit shows, that Wilhoite confessed to fatally striking Nikki in the face with a gallon-sized cement flower pot and then throwing her body in a nearby creek.
Still, because Wilhoite has only been charged with a felony, not convicted, there is nothing that legally prevents him from being on the ballot.
“It’s really important for people to understand in Indiana and all states in the United States is the fact that being accused of a crime is very different than being convicted of a crime. A person loses ballot access in Indiana, in other words, the right to run for or serve in public access, if they are convicted of a felony. This is very different than being accused because there is a presumption of innocent, which means that person very well may be found innocent and, therefore, be able to serve in office,” Chancellor’s Professor of Political Science at Indiana University South Bend Elizabeth Bennion said.
County GOP officials said Wilhoite met the deadline to declare his candidacy for a party nomination, in February, prior to his arrest.
“For the primary election, a candidate has approximately 30 days and that begins about the second week of January and ends in February,” Boone County Republican Chairwoman Debbie Ottinger said.
According to the State’s Election Division, a candidate who chooses to withdraw from the primary election would need to submit that request by Feb. 11, also prior to Wilhoite’s arrest.
“In this situation, his arrest came after that, so he remained on the ballot,” said Ottinger, who said the options were, and still are, limited.
“You can’t remove him. We could not go in and say, ‘We want to remove this individual.’ A normal voter or resident in Boone County cannot go in and request that,” Ottinger explained.
Nobody else can remove Wilhoite from the ballot besides himself.
According to the Indiana Secretary of State’s Election Division, if nominated at the primary election, convention or by petition of nomination, a candidate has until noon on July 15 to submit their withdrawal.
Since Clinton Township only has one precinct, when an office holder resigns or a candidate chooses to withdraw their name from the ballot, the office holder’s party can choose a replacement. In that event, the new individual would assume the space on the ballot to be voted on in November.
Unless withdrawing is a move he decides to make, Wilhoite’s name would remain on the ballot as long as he is not convicted of a felony, in which case, there would be an automatic disqualification, officials said.
“It may be something of everything that has to be dealt with, that this would be the least important thing and there’s a very easy way to solve that, if he would choose to do that. I would not be the one to approach him about that, it would be people who know them, or he may see this and say, ‘Give me the paper’ or ‘I don’t have time to worry about that,'” said Ottinger. “It has to be his decision at this point in time as far as that’s concerned if nothing changes as far as the court system, so he’ll be the one to make that decision.”
In the event that a candidate is found guilty of a felony crime after the withdrawal deadline and ahead of the election, Ottinger explained how that would work.
“There’s another form that he would need to file. Now, if he chose not to do it and anyone just said, ‘I’m done, I don’t want to file anything else,’ then there could be a court action taken, asking the judge to remove that individual from the ballot, and if ballots had already been printed, according to Brad King at the State Election Division, you would have to go back and re-print your ballots,” Ottinger said.
“It would be a huge situation for that to happen because you’ve already had people vote, so then you would not be able to count that vote for that one, but you would add the new name on, then you would have to have new ballots printed and that’s what the future voters would use up through election day in November,” said Ottinger.
In her role, Ottinger said she’s never had a situation like this occur, and so she reached out to the state’s Election Commission to be sure of everything that needs to be done to ensure they are following the law, and if a change is required, that they take the correct steps.
“It certainly is understandable if you’re in jail, why people would think, ‘How do you get to be an elected official? How do you get to serve?’ You can be in jail for a number of issues, reasons and different charges, but until you are convicted of a felony offense, you remain on the ballot,” said Ottinger.
So, with three positions available and only three GOP candidates on the ballot during the primary, was Wilhoite an automatic shoo-in to earn a spot on the ballot in the November general election?
The simple answer is no.
“When you have three positions available and you only have three individuals file for those positions and they receive at least one vote, they automatically go to the November election,” said Ottinger.
Ottinger said, if any of the candidates received no votes during the primary, they would not automatically move to the November ballot.
“I think sometimes people believe if there’s three individuals on there and it says vote for three. I think some people feel like if they don’t vote for all three people, then maybe their ballot won’t count,” said Ottinger.
“For some of these races like a township advisory board, the top three vote-getters will be selected. That doesn’t mean that voters necessarily need to cast three votes. They could vote for the one person or the two people they like best. Similarly, voters will not spoil their ballot by leaving some races blank,” said Bennion. “They can pick and choose which races to vote in and those that they record are the ones that actually then are counted in terms of how many votes each person got.”
“That doesn’t change the fact that a person that got one or two votes could potentially go through to the general election because it is the top three,” Bennion added.
In this case, there were only three candidates, so it only took a single vote to put any of the three through.
During the primary election, there were no Democratic candidates on the ballot to pursue a seat on the Clinton Township Board, but that could change by November if candidates in other parties elect to run for vacant slots.
“If there were challengers on the other side, then it would be left to the court of public opinion to decide how much that particular accusation would weigh in their mind when they vote, because in the general election, even if you’re a Republican, you can vote for a combination of Republicans and Democrats. Similarly, if you’re a Democrat, and so some people might split their ticket if this was something that was particularly troubling to them,” said Bennion.
According to court records, Wilhoite’s next hearing is scheduled for May 27 in Boone Superior Court and a jury trial has been preliminarily scheduled for Aug. 29.
By law in Indiana, a person charged with murder must be held without bond until trial, so if the date of his trial is moved back, no verdict is reached by November, and Wilhoite never filed a request to withdraw by the July deadline, he could win the general election if he receives enough votes, even while behind bars.
If this scenario occurs and an oath of office needs to be administered, Ottinger said, it would be the first time she’s ever been aware of a clerk administering an oath to a person behind bars.
“Never in the history of anything, and I’ve been involved with our party for a long time and knew people before I became involved, and I’ve never been aware of anyone getting their oath of office at the jail.” | https://kdvr.com/news/indiana-man-accused-of-killing-wife-wins-primary-election/ | 2022-05-06T17:06:06Z | https://kdvr.com/news/indiana-man-accused-of-killing-wife-wins-primary-election/ | true | 17 |
Vietnamese, fast and fresh from Pho Lucky
👋 Hello, Joe here. After a recent bus ride downtown, I walked north for lunch and landed at Pho Lucky on Woodward.
- I usually order pho at Vietnamese restaurants, but this time I went for a vermicelli bowl, also known as the Bun Thit Nuong. The dish comes with your choice of grilled chicken, pork or beef.
🐔I chose chicken. It was well-seasoned — tasting like it came straight off the grill — and served atop a bed of vermicelli noodles alongside bean sprouts, crushed peanuts, iceberg lettuce and cilantro. The bowl was served with a sweet and sour sauce that I poured over the dish before eating.
- A trio of condiments was tableside for extra flavor: hoisin sauce, Sriracha and a garlic chili sauce.
The bottom line: For about $13, the bowl was filling and flavorful. The lettuce, sprouts and peanuts added the right amount of texture and the flavors were balanced nicely. Strong recommendation!

An artist’s impressions and animated footage show the structure stretching in a circle around the historic monument, with the palace in the backdrop projected with the image of a Union flag, a large portrait of the Queen, and with lights beaming up hundreds of feet into the night sky.
A further two stages – linked to the circular stage by a walkway – will be constructed in front of the palace railings.
Construction began earlier this week to create 15,000 standing spaces around the memorial, and 7,000 seated in the north and south stands.
The concert promises to feature some of the world’s biggest pop and rock stars, with a full line-up due to be announced by the BBC in the coming weeks.
George Ezra will be among those performing at the high profile event, which will be broadcast live on BBC One.
Some 10,000 people have been allocated tickets in a public ballot, and a further 5,000 tickets have been set aside for key workers.
Others invited will include volunteers, representatives from the royal family’s patronages and nominated charity heroes. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-10790355/First-glimpse-setting-BBC-s-Party-Palace-unveiled.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-05-06T17:07:47Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-10790355/First-glimpse-setting-BBC-s-Party-Palace-unveiled.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false | 12 |
Police have released CCTV of a woman who was found dead in a Stoke-on-Trent canal as part of an urgent appeal for answers. The woman - who has not yet been identified - was seen walking along the canal the day before her body was discovered in the water at 10am this morning (May 6).
Staffordshire Police were called by a narrowboat owner to reports of a body in the canal beneath the bridge on Forge Way, in Etruria.
CCTV footage obtained from the boatyard in Etruria shows the woman walking along the canal, past the Bet365 HQ, up the steps and turning towards Hanley at around 6am yesterday (May 5). Her death is currently being treated as 'unexplained'.

Police, firefighters and paramedics were called to the scene this morning. Fire crews from Hanley, Sandyford and Newcastle attended.
A Staffordshire Fire and Rescue Service spokeswoman said: "Just after 10.10am this morning (Friday 6 May) firefighters were called to reports of a person in the water at Etruria.
"Crews from Hanley, Sandyford, Newcastle and the water rescue unit attended. Sadly, the body of a woman was removed from the canal and the incident was left with officers from Staffordshire Police."
Anyone with any information, dashcam footage or CCTV should message Staffordshire Police on Facebook or Twitter quoting incident number 178 of 6 May, call 101 or alternatively contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Wadeye was created in the middle of nowhere to give local Aboriginals a 'better' life. Now there's 22 clans at war in the township - and there's no end in sight to the brutal violence
- Remote Northern Territory township has been torched as rival clans clash
- Savage gangs arms with machetes, axes and hammers roam the local streets
- One man died after being speared in head and another shot by a bow and arrow
- Hundreds are now hiding out in the bush after being burned out of their homes
- Town home to heavy metal gangs Megadeath Mob, Slayer Boys, Kylie Girls
There was never much in Wadeye, a remote township 420 km south-west of Darwin. It only got its first coffee shop a few years ago. It still doesn't have a public toilet.
But after days of brutal clan warfare, there's even less there now.
About 500 people have fled the township of 4,000 to hide out in surrounding bush after the savage violence erupted and left them homeless.
Famous for its gangs named after heavy metal groups or performers - like the Slayer Mob, Judas Priest Boys, Metallica Mob and, for female locals, the Celine Dion gang, the Kylie Girls and the Madonna Mob - Wadeye has been riven by violence for decades.
But in the latest eruption, one man, 32, is dead, allegedly speared through the head, and another is seriously injured after being shot by a bow and arrow.
Frightening photographs from the township - which is the Northern Territory’s biggest Aboriginal community - have revealed the extent of the war between the tribal rivals.
Likened by some to 'the Wild West', Wadeye has seen pitched battles after dark between rival gang members wheeling around the streets and setting houses and vehicles alight.
Gangs of locals armed with axes, hammers and machetes roam the streets of Wadeye, searching for victims with authorities apparently powerless to stop them
Gangs of locals armed with axes, hammers, iron bars and machetes have roamed the streets searching for victims, with authorities apparently powerless to stop them.
About 40 houses have been torched and abandoned, with some armed thugs posing for pictures in front of the burning properties.
Shocking video footage showed locals looting buildings, snatching expensive computer equipment and then jubilantly destroying it.
An attack on the local school also saw 25 teachers being evacuated to safety.

The Northern Territory government has now sent a taskforce into the area to offer food, shelter and support to the hundreds of desperate locals surviving on their wits in makeshift bush camps.
But back in Wadeye, formerly known as Port Keats, tensions remain high.
'This has been happening for the past six weeks,' one worker in the town revealed.
'We are okay and we are safe. These fights are not directed at us non-locals.
'However it does impact on our way of life but nowhere near the extent it is impacting on the local women and children.'

The township was developed to bring local Aboriginals together so they could get access to modern facilities, but the population has doubled over the last 10 years
The township was developed to bring local Aboriginals together so they could get access to modern facilities, but the population has doubled over the last 10 years.
The scheme has now resulted in 22 different clans - speaking three or four different languages - living in close proximity, often with 10 people or more in each home.
Some are now demanding they are given blocks of land outside of the township where they can establish their own clan homelands on their traditional country.
But even before the current lawless rioting and plundering, Wadeye lived on the edge of civilisation.
Old social media footage revealed clan rivals stoning each other in running battles on the outskirts of town.
Others - including girls and young women - settled their differences with bare knuckle fist fights in the middle of the road, cheered on and supervised by elders.

Gang violence under the guise of rival 'heavy metal gangs' such as the Slayer gang, the Judas Priest Boys, the Metallica Mob has bene going on in Wadeye for up to two decades
Facilities in town are limited. Mobile phone reception is patchy, internet is limited and most landlines have been disconnected.
What little infrastructure there is was mostly either government-run or government-backed, which means few will publicly discuss the problems facing the town for fear of being sacked or their funding being axed.
The medical centre and the women's art centre T-House has been at the heart of the community for the last 32 years, focusing initially on arts and crafts but since expanding into other areas and business.
Its main industry is the lucrative Kakadu plum crop, harvested, graded and freeze-dried by locals and sold at home and abroad as the latest superfood beloved by foodies.
It also has a bakery and a butchery, and fresh seafood is trucked in once a week after a seven hour journey from Darwin when the road's not impassable in the wet season.
But the township's long-term future now hangs in the balance.
Labor senator Malarndirri McCarthy said locals were in 'desperate situations' which urgently needed to be addressed.
'This means shelter, food, sanitation, and medication,' she said.
'It's unacceptable what is taking place in Wadeye, in terms of hundreds of people being forced out of town and into surrounding homelands and bush camps.'
The local NT member Dheran Young was in Wadeye on Thursday to assess the situation for himself and meet community leaders
The local NT member Dheran Young was in the area to assess the situation for himself on Thursday.
'These are tough times but I know the people of Wadeye will get through this,' he posted in a message to the warring locals on Facebook.
'The conversations you and I have been having are important and I am absolutely here for you – even if you just need to sound off and vent to someone about how things are going.
'Wadeye is a strong community full of good people. We know this.
'The only way we're going to move forward is by being respectful of one another, listening to one another and by working together.'
Old social media footage revealed clan rivals stoning each other in running battles on the outskirts of town
But former Alice Spring deputy Mayor Jacinta Price says the issues may not be easily solved, even by giving in to the demands for clan homelands, and is demanding strong police action.
'I think there's other deeper issues going on here that separating people further won't necessarily actually solve,' she said.
'As unfortunate as it is, it's certainly not unusual for this particular community. I would hope that there are serious consequences for them.
'There aren't necessarily the sorts of punishments delivered to those who commit such crimes, which would deter them from continuing to commit them.
'There's a lot of vulnerable people that need to be protected in these communities.'

Another former local blasted the town as a failed project that had now been abandoned by state and federal governments.
But he said local elders needed to share the blame too.
'This is a great stuff up by all concerned,' he said.
'Elders need to stop drinking and playing cards and start their own programs for the youth.
'It's a lack of care by all. RIP Port Keats - God be with you!' | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10784597/Wadeye-Northern-Territory-burns-22-clans-war-brutal-tribal-rivalry-violence.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-05-06T17:16:47Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10784597/Wadeye-Northern-Territory-burns-22-clans-war-brutal-tribal-rivalry-violence.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false | 2 |
Olinda C. “Linda” Zobrist, 92, passed away in her sleep of natural causes on April 27, 2022, at her home in Chandler, Arizona. Linda was born January 10, 1930, in Waterloo, IL, the daughter of William and Bertha Marquardt.
Linda, as her close family and friends called her, grew up in the Highland, Illinois area and attended St. Paul Catholic School. On Nov. 28, 1945 she married her husband Morris Zobrist. They recently celebrated their 76th wedding anniversary surrounded by their loved ones. Linda was a kind, dedicated, hard worker, who put her heart into everything she did. She worked for Alton Boxboard, Marine Garment Factory, and St. Joseph’s Hospital (shipping and receiving department).

They returned to Highland in 1994, she worked for Wellen Tax Service and volunteered at the St. Joseph Hospital in Highland. In 2014, they moved back to Arizona to be close to the family, enjoying precious time with their grandchildren and great grandchildren.

About 6 percent of the population deals with post-traumatic stress at some point in their life.
“While it's considered a military condition or a condition reserved for people who work in dangerous professions, it's more common than people think,” Sherman Gillums Jr., the chief strategy and impact officer of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), said.
Post-traumatic stress and the cost can be a burden.
“PTSD is a very complicated treatment,” Dr. Steven Berkowitz, professor of psychiatry at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, said.
A new study by Veterans Affairs Research Communications shows that post-traumatic stress cost an estimated $232.2 billion in 2018, exceeding the cost of other common mental health conditions. The annual cost per civilian was $18,640 a year while the average for the military population was about $25,684 per individual.
“In some ways, I'm not surprised given our work and knowing how much systems are often involved for people who have PTSD,” Berkowitz said.
He said the costs can really add up.
“Let’s just assume that you need a year's worth of treatment,” he said. “Fifty weeks a year, $200 a week. That's a significant amount of money, that's $10,000 right there. Then the medical costs, prescription costs."
“Once it gets more advanced and they’re getting into more of a critical stage and not functioning well, then that cost can become overwhelming,” David Maulsby, the executive director of the PTSD Foundation of America, said.
It isn't just the cost tied directly to health care.
“The indirect cost, I think, shows up when it's misdiagnosed. When you have people locked up in jail instead of treated, or you have people lose their job because they didn't get the right help they needed,” Gillums Jr. said.
“Divorce, legal fees, child custody costs, that can all result from the mental health situation whether it’s being dealt with or not,” Maulsby said.
Berkowitz said it’s a lot of money and not much prevention in the first place.
“We’re putting so much money on the back end to deal with these things,” he said. “We can prevent people from being traumatized.”
Experts said prevention, catching signs early, and continuing to invest in better treatments and expanding programs are crucial.
“There's a need to continue to study this so we get a more accurate reading on how prevalent this condition really is,” Gillums Jr. said. | https://www.kztv10.com/news/national/study-ptsd-more-costly-than-other-common-mental-health-conditions-in-u-s | 2022-05-06T17:19:48Z | https://www.kztv10.com/news/national/study-ptsd-more-costly-than-other-common-mental-health-conditions-in-u-s | false | 11 |

Michael Owen ‘horrified’ as daughter Gemma, 19, is mistaken for OnlyFans model after X-rated photos are leaked
MICHAEL OWEN has been left fuming after his teenage daughter Gemma, 19, was mistaken for an OnlyFans model.
Explicit photos of glamour girl Jill, 23, have circulated online - with people incorrectly believing them to be of Gemma.
According to the Mail, Owen is seething at the mix up - and worries that it could affect his daughter's beachwear business.
A Mail source said: "Michael is horrified his daughter's name is being used out of turn and all he wants is for this situation to be rectified.
"It is clearly not Gemma in the images; she doesn't use OnlyFans, and is only ever pictured in a bikini to promote her brand.
"He's a protective father and now Gemma is getting older, he wants to do everything he can to look after her image and reputation."
Jill, whose pictures have been illegally leaked, is also fuming at sick trolls.
She tweeted: "When my nudes get leaked everywhere and people think it's Michael Owen's daughter?
"I'm actually knocked sick and I'm not even going to bother staying quiet on it because too many people have sent it to me now, it's the fact that men are getting off to the fact it could be a teen."
Gemma, who runs business OG Beachwear, made sure to clarify the situation.

She wrote on Instagram: "Apparently some guy is circulating pictures trying to claim it's me.
"These pictures were taken off this girl's OnlyFans. These images are clearly not me.
"Thank you to this girl for clearing it up. Just for the record, I do NOT have OnlyFans."
Gemma was all smiles as she attended Ladies Day at Chester racecourse alongside dad Michael yesterday.
She is a keen equestrian, with her famous father supportive of her sporting exploits, as she revealed to the Mail earlier this year: "My dad has pushed more with sport but my mum on the other side has always drilled it into me and my sisters how important it is to have something of your own and stand on your own two feet financially.
"They are both unbelievably supportive but I would say my mum has encouraged more of the business side." | https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/18485060/michael-owen-gemma-onlyfans-mistaken/ | 2022-05-06T17:26:35Z | https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/18485060/michael-owen-gemma-onlyfans-mistaken/ | true | 4 |

Wade. “There’s been an overwhelming amount of people that reached out to us,” Dr. Rebecca Gomperts, who runs the telemedicine service Aid Access, told CBS News. “I think that’s a really good response. So I would say, buckle up, women in the U.S. Just get your abortion pills in your medicine cabinet, so you have it in case you need it.” Upcoming Supreme Court abortion decision puts spotlight on medication abortion In 2000, the FDA approved a combination of two medicines — mifepristone and misoprostol — to terminate pregnancies up to 10 weeks. Taken as pills, they effectively trigger a miscarriage, and are now a common option for women seeking an abortion. Medication abortions accounted for nearly 40% of all abortions in the U.S. in 2018, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. U.S. states have varying rules about when and where abortion pills can be taken, and who can prescribe them. The World Health Organization says they can be safely prescribed for women to self-administer, without the direct supervision of a healthcare professional, until the end of the 11th week of pregnancy. European doctor says she’ll keep prescribing abortion pills in Texas: “I don’t care about 6 weeks” Gomperts says that, in light of the leaked draft of the Supreme Court decision, women in the U.S. should start getting abortion pills to have at home to use as “preventive medication” if they are needed. “I think everybody should get it and should make sure that they have it. It’s like paracetamol,” she said, comparing it to the common painkiller used in Tylenol. “It’s safer,” Gomperts said. U.S. consumers are not permitted to import prescription drugs from abroad, but the FDA doesn’t tend to go after individuals who are bringing medicines into the country for personal use, said Farah Diaz-Tello, senior counsel and legal director of the reproductive rights group If/When/How. Gomperts says she believes she is acting within legal and ethical guidelines in all the jurisdictions she operates. “We are going to continue helping women, but [abortion pills are] not for everybody. The thing is that the most vulnerable women will not be able to access them, because they might not speak English or Spanish. They may not have access to the internet. They might not even have a home to receive pills or an address to receive pills because they are homeless,” said Gomperts. “So, yeah, of course, it’s a wonderful solution, but it’s not going to be able to help a substantial group of women that need care.” | https://www.wsgw.com/european-doctor-sees-enormous-rise-in-u-s-women-seeking-abortion-pills/ | 2022-05-06T17:26:39Z | https://www.wsgw.com/european-doctor-sees-enormous-rise-in-u-s-women-seeking-abortion-pills/ | false | 1 |

STOCKHOLM (AP) — Sweden said Friday it was reintroducing temporary border controls at ferry terminals, airports, road crossings with other countries and other entry points to the Scandinavian nation because there “still is a serious threat to public order and internal security."
The Swedish government said the temporary controls would start immediately and last until Nov. 11, meaning travelers will have to show passports and visas during the 6-month period.
The government did not mention a specific threat in its announcement but said the security situation in the country's region of Europe is “extremely serious, and the overall terrorist threat level in Sweden remains elevated.”
Swedish Justice Minister Morgan Johansson noted that once inside Europe’s passport-free travel zone known as the Schengen Area, people can move relatively freely among 26 countries — 22 European Union nations plus Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland.
Normally, people and goods move freely between these countries without border checks. Temporary controls are allowed for security or health reasons, and several other Schengen countries, including Germany, Austria, Norway and Denmark, have them in place, Johansson said.
Reintroducing border controls “creates the conditions for identifying and controlling those who wish to enter the country,” the minister said. “It can also help to identify potential perpetrators and thus prevent possible terrorist attacks.”
At least seven Schengen Area countries currently have some border restrictions in place, mostly for security reasons or to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. Some countries — notably Austria, France and Denmark — routinely renew them and have done so for years.
The European Union’s top court handed down a ruling last month that could force countries to regularly justify why they are conducting ID checks on people who should be able to move without them within the Schengen Area.
The European Court of Justice ruled that countries must justify why they are rolling over the border measures, and that they should only do so “in the event of a serious new threat arising.” Under the Schengen rulebook, it said, border controls “cannot exceed a maximum total duration of six months.” | https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4530324 | 2022-05-06T17:27:01Z | https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4530324 | true | 11 |
NEW YORK (StudyFinds.org) – Think everyone will be turning off the TV and going outside again this summer? Don’t bet on it! The average person expects to stream over 290 different movies or TV shows this year, a new survey reveals.
Regardless of what they’ll be watching, people think they’ll stream 437 hours of content in the year ahead. That’s equivalent to more than 18 full days of vegging out in front of the TV.
The recent survey of 2,000 U.S. adults also finds that people are re-evaluating what streaming services they pay for. In fact, 57 percent are planning to cut some of their paid streaming subscriptions. Overall, the average person dropping three out of five from their current arsenal.
Cutting the cord… again
Most of the customers who pay for either TV or video services don’t anticipate bidding adieu to their favorite services anytime soon, including users of Netflix and Amazon Prime (75%), satellite TV (61%), pay-per-view services like Apple iTunes (52%), and cable TV (48%).
Conducted by OnePoll on behalf of Tubi, the survey found that seven in 10 cited changes to their financial situation as a reason to re-evaluate their streaming service spending. Aside from budget, respondents cited other factors that would make them pull the plug on a streaming service, including a limited selection of titles (49%), lack of a user-friendly interface (34%), and poor customer service (33%).
Forty-four percent would stick with an unsatisfying streaming service for only a week before canceling it. What would keep people loyal to a service? Affordability (45%), a wide selection of content (44%), and a user-friendly interface that makes it easy to discover movies and shows (43%).
“While people are looking for ways to cut back on their streaming expenses, they still plan on watching many hours’ worth of content this year,” says a spokesperson from Tubi in a statement. “To capture the attention of and retain those viewers, streaming services need to focus on affordability, a wide selection of content, and a great user experience.”
Streaming pitfalls
An attestation to the idiom “variety is the spice of life,” 36 percent of those polled would drop a service that didn’t have a large enough library of content to choose from. In their hunt for a streaming service, people usually search for one that carries a specific series or movie (59%) or that is the most affordable (57%). More than three-fourths have tried a streaming service because it carried a particular movie they were looking for.
When it comes time to choose what to stream, 59 percent look for titles tied to holidays like Halloween or Valentine’s Day. More than half also browse a service’s home page and decide based on their mood.
“According to a quarter of respondents, the future of streaming will include free services with limited ads,” the spokesperson adds. “Luckily, the future is already here — there are options currently available that offer a wide selection of content without needing to log in or sign up when you use it, and have minimal ad interruptions.” | https://www.mytwintiers.com/news-header/tech-news/average-consumer-cutting-3-streaming-services-from-their-lineup-in-2022/ | 2022-05-06T17:28:25Z | https://www.mytwintiers.com/news-header/tech-news/average-consumer-cutting-3-streaming-services-from-their-lineup-in-2022/ | false | 19 |

College grads expect to make $50,000 more at their first job than they actually will, survey finds
(CNN) - A new survey shows the next crop of college graduates have unrealistic expectations about their first job.
The survey by Real Estate Witch shows students expect to make a six-figure salary at their first job, when the reality is less than half of that.
In fact, the survey shows the undergraduate class of 2022, across all majors, overestimate their starting salaries by 88%, expecting to make at least $50,000 more than they actually will.
The average starting salary for college graduates is $55,260, but current college students expect to make nearly $104,000 in their first job, Real Estate Witch found.
Journalism grads had the most unrealistic expectations, overestimating their starting salaries by 139% – they expected to make $107,000 their first year, when the actual average is below $45,000.
Only 15% of 2022 graduates have accepted a job offer.
The survey also found that 52% of students do not believe college is worth the debt, and 40% regret attending.

During an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, the actor gushed over her husband as she shared details of her ‘amazing’ birthday bash.
The Total Recall actor said, “He surprised me. He threw me such an amazing party. He flew his band in and he performed for me.”
“I will go head-to-head with anybody but I am his number one fan,” the 40-year-old star added.
Biel continued: “Who do I wanna see on my birthday? Him and his band. And he performed all covers from our time together. So, like, everything from Feist to Radiohead to Donny Hathaway. Gosh, it just goes on and on!”
Earlier, the actor talked to Access Hollywood about her 10-year marriage with the Palmer actor, saying she really feels proud of their bond.
“I sometimes feel like 10 years has just flown by in the blink of an eye and other times I feel like, ‘Oh, my gosh, 10 years, that’s a really substantial amount of someone’s life,'” she had told the outlet, “I just feel really proud of it.”
Biel and Timberlake started dating in 2007 and got married in October 2012.

Jellyfish are a common sight along the Florida coast — but people who watched the latest rocket launch from the Kennedy Space Center were treated to a unique sight.
Friday morning's SpaceX launch generated a visual phenomenon known as a "space jellyfish," rewarding people who got up early to see the Falcon 9 rocket's launch with a striking spectacle: an ethereal cloud of illuminated gases, highlighted against the pre-dawn darkness.
🚀 #spacex Starlink mission launching into Orbital Sunrise this morning! As seen from Tampa, Florida.

The space jellyfish phenomenon occurs when a rocket lifts off in the hours around dawn or dusk. A spectator might be standing in total darkness — but as the craft reaches high altitudes, the sun's rays illuminate the plume of gases in its trail. The effect resembles a jellyfish medusa's bell and tentacles.
Woah! Hell yes! That is a well placed ground shot of that same #SpaceX Starlink launch! 🤯

Friday's effect varied depending on where people were standing when they saw the rocket. As images posted online show, some observers saw a horizontal streak of silver, while others saw what looked like a billowing luminous cloud.
While the space jellyfish effect only evokes the animal, actual jellyfish have also visited space. In 1991, NASA sent thousands of small jellyfish into orbit aboard the Space Shuttle Columbia, to study how they react to microgravity.

Fantastic Beasts in crisis amid JK Rowling backlash and Ezra Miller’s arrest ahead of world premiere
JK Rowling last night defied her critics at a Harry Potter premiere — as the row over her views on transgender people continued.
The author joined the cast of Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore as journalists were barred from asking her questions.
Mum-of-three Rowling, 56, has been accused of transphobia for suggesting that male-to-female trans people are not women and saying only women can menstruate.
Social media accounts set up for the new movie, which she co-wrote, have been hit with criticism.
One follower on Twitter blasted: “Sorry JK killed her own franchise.”
Another wrote: “Boycott this film.”
Rowling was at London’s Royal Festival Hall with Eddie Redmayne, 40, who plays hero wizard Newt Scamander in the three Fantastic Beasts films, and his wife Hannah Bagshawe.
Also there were Jude Law, 49, who plays a young Albus Dumbledore, later headmaster of Hogwarts school in the Harry Potter series.
Mads Mikkelsen, 56, who replaced shamed wife beater Johnny Depp as powerful dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald and grounded witch Katherine Waterston, 43, were also on the red carpet.
The film is due to open in UK cinemas on April 8. | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/8637281/fantastic-beasts-dumbledore-premiere-backlash-jk-rowling/ | 2022-05-06T17:44:42Z | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/8637281/fantastic-beasts-dumbledore-premiere-backlash-jk-rowling/ | false | 1 |
Inside Peter Andre’s surprise proposal to wife Emily as she reveals it ‘brought on contractions’ before she gave birth
PETER Andre's wife Emily claimed their surprise engagement could have brought on her contractions for their first child.
The singer, 49, popped the question back in 2014 while Emily, 32, was pregnant with their first child Amelia.
While Emily admitted there was "a bit of consultation beforehand", especially regarding the style of ring she wanted, Peter's proposal still caught her off guard.
Writing in her latest OK! column, she said: "Pete proposed a week before Millie was born, which I wasn’t expecting at all.
"Millie arrived three weeks early so maybe it was the surprise of the proposal that brought on my contractions!"
Peter previously said he felt like he had a deadline to put a ring on Emily before she gave birth.
While discussing the marriage of retired footballer Jamie Redknapp and Frida Andersson, Peter reflected on his decision to ‘provide security’ for Emily.
Writing in his column for new! Magazine, he said: “It reminds me of when Emily fell pregnant, I knew I had nine months to propose to her before Millie was born, otherwise her family were going to think, 'what kind of guy is he?' I didn’t want her to think there was no security!
"But most of all I knew I was going to propose anyway. We got engaged a month before Millie was born."
The couple now have two children - seven-year-old Amelia and Theo, who is now four.
Most read in Celebrity
Peter is also a devoted dad to his two other children - Junior, 16, and Princess, 14 - from his previous marriage to Katie Price.
He and Emily tied the knot back in 2015 at Mamhead House in Devon in a beautiful ceremony in front of their friends and family. | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/8637463/inside-peter-andres-surprise-proposal-wife-emily/ | 2022-05-06T17:44:49Z | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/8637463/inside-peter-andres-surprise-proposal-wife-emily/ | false | 1 |
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — A marble bust that a Texas woman bought for about $35 from a Goodwill store is temporarily on display at a San Antonio museum after experts determined it was a centuries-old sculpture missing from Germany since World War II.
The bust, which art collector Laura Young found at Goodwill in 2018, once belonged in the collection of King Ludwig I of Bavaria, according to the San Antonio Museum of Art, which is temporarily displaying the piece until it is returned to Germany next year.
The ancient Roman bust dates to the first century B.C. or first century A.D. It was last seen in Aschaffenburg, Germany, and experts believe a soldier took the sculpture and brought it to the United States, the museum said.
A Sotheby's consultant identified the work and it was further authenticated, the museum said.
“We are very pleased that a piece of Bavarian history that we thought was lost has reappeared and will soon be able to return to its rightful location," said Bernd Schreiber, president of the Bavarian Administration of State-Owned Palaces, Gardens, and Lakes.
Young said there were a few months of “intense excitement” after learning the history behind the piece, which she found on the floor beneath a table at a Goodwill in Austin, Texas.
“But it was bittersweet since I knew I couldn’t keep or sell the (bust),” she said.

The Ministry of the Interior and Safety has decided on a travel theme suitable for spring and has selected nine “Spring Islands to Visit”.
The ‘Island I Want to Visit’ has been selected annually by the Ministry of Public Administration and Security to encourage island travel since 2015.
The nine ‘I Want to Visit Spring Islands’ were selected according to three travel themes:
— Click Island, where you can take pictures of your life
— Animal Island, where you can meet animals on the island
— Family Island, where you can travel with your family
Click islands are good for taking pictures with colorful spring flowers, village scenery, sunset, and coastal scenery. Three islands were selected: Seondo in (Shinan-gun, Jeollanam-do where the whole village is dyed yellow with yellow daffodils and yellow roofs, Cheongsan-do in Wando-gun, Jeollanam-do which creates a green spectacle with green barley, and Janggo-do, Boryeong-si, Chungcheongnam-do, where an orange sunset spreads between the islands before the sun goes down.
Animal Islands consist of three islands: Hedgehog-shaped Wido in Buan-gun, Jeollabuk-do, Isudo where you can meet grazing deer in Geoje-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, and Ssukseom Island in Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do, which is called Cat Island because there are more cats than residents. Animal Islands are a recommended place for those who love animals or want to travel with their pets.
Family Islands are recommended as a family vacation destination in May, the month of the family. The three islands include Nangdo in Yeosu, Jeollanam-do), where you can enjoy island camping, Sinsudo in Sacheon, Gyeongnam, and Birthday Island in Wando-gun, Jeollanam-do, where birthday celebrations are held for visitors on their birthdays.
