Tigers have jumped the Hawks in the inside-50s, 11-4.
Clearances are all square at 4-4, but the Tigers are dominating the hitouts 7-1.
Meanwhile, the Hawks are on the board through O’Meara.

TOP 10 RIGHT NOW
New CNN parent company Warner Bros. Discovery abruptly announced last month that it would be shuttering its just-launched CNN+ streaming service, and then stunned hundreds of laid off staffers a week later by sending them welcome gift baskets filled with branded products from the defunct unit. “This is an incredible time to be part of CNN,” a note in some of the swag bags said, according to The Wall Street Journal. “Build relationships and take time to connect with colleagues and learn so that you make the most of your time here.” CNN told the Journal that the gift baskets, which contained items such as pens, popcorn makers, and headphones, had been “sent mistakenly.” | https://www.thedailybeast.com/cnn-parent-company-warner-bros-discovery-accidentally-sent-welcome-baskets-to-newly-jobless-staffers-wsj | 2022-05-14T04:10:29Z | https://www.thedailybeast.com/cnn-parent-company-warner-bros-discovery-accidentally-sent-welcome-baskets-to-newly-jobless-staffers-wsj | true | null |
As summer approaches and diaries fill up, will this be your year to attend a wellbeing or fitness festival for the first time, or are you already a convert? Perhaps you can think of nothing worse than being surrounded by perky vegan 20-somethings in skintight Lululemon leggings.
Set aside preconceptions: this new generation of festival is actually all about restoring mind, body and spirit with a side order of good music and food. Yes, there is often sunrise yoga and paddleboarding on offer, but there are also cocktails and music. Let’s call it healthy hedonism – which is an appealing balance for those of us midlifers who can’t, or no longer want to, pull all-nighters fuelled by bad burgers and warm beer.
“In some of the images promoting wellbeing festivals everyone looks toned and young, but there is no pressure to be a certain size or a certain age,” says Amber Lort-Phillips, the 49-year-old founder of the Big Retreat, which takes place on the Lawrenny Castle Estate in Pembrokeshire, south-west Wales, within the only coastal national park in the UK.
“It’s mostly people in their 30s, 40s and 50s who come to the Big Retreat,” she says. “At 49, I can’t party all night any more. Our main music finishes at 11pm and the site falls quiet, although if people do want to stay up, we have an acoustic fire pit tent and a silent disco open later.”
Skimpy activewear and glitter is strictly optional (although not frowned upon). If you don’t fancy high-intensity workouts and pitching up in the mud, you can just stay in a comfortable nearby Airbnb or pre-pitched glamping tent before taking the time to relax in an outdoor barrel sauna at the likes of Wellbeing by the Lakes, a festival set in a picturesque Dorset sculpture park.
“They are less crowded, hectic and lairy than music festivals: everyone is happy, chilled out and like-minded,” says wellbeing festival-goer Kim Morgan, 42. “When I went to festivals when I was younger, I’d need to recover afterwards. A wellbeing festival offers more of a reset. There’s nobody drunk or on drugs.
“In my experience, they’re really unpretentious and give you the opportunity to try lots of new things designed to make you feel good, all in one place. My advice to someone who’s never been to one would be to give it a go.”
Many of this new breed of festival are family-friendly; the relaxed atmosphere lends itself to activities for little ones.
As standalone wellbeing festivals grow in popularity, other arts, music and family festivals are also expanding their wellbeing offerings. Here’s our pick of the best for 2022.
The Big Retreat
June 3-6, Wales
There are more than 300 events, classes, workshops and talks at the Big Retreat – the majority of which should appeal to an older crowd (not least the 1990s fitness headliner Mr Motivator).
As well as dance, cardio and meditation, there’s printmaking, kids’ yoga and theatre, swimming in the Cleddau estuary, salsa classes for all ages and a football pitch for kickabouts. There’s also entertainment from comedy duo the Scummy Mummies and music from Reef, Toploader and Huey Morgan.
Lort-Phillips has been in the fitness industry since she was 18. A Pilates instructor, she used to own a gym and began hosting “Little Retreats” at Lawrenny Castle Estate back in 2016 (think wood-furnace heated domes, Scandi hot tubs and private firepits) before launching the first Big Retreat festival five years ago.
She says: “Back then, ‘wellness’ was perceived as quite niche, and only appealed to a select few. Today, looking after your mental and physical health is mainstream at any age. The aim is for festival-goers to leave feeling better than when they arrived.”
“There’s men-only yoga and beginner yoga classes. It’s not intimidating, and there’s lots to do for people who are new to the world of well-being. Most activities are included, so you can try things you haven’t tried before. As well as all ages, there’s all shapes and sizes. You can be authentic without judgement and have fun.”
Guests this year include Irish surfer Al Mennie, explorer Al Humphreys, Countryfile presenter Sean Fletcher, and ITV meteorologist Laura Tobin, who will appear in the “Darwin’s Den” tent discussing her new book Everyday Ways to Save Our Planet.
In the cookery tent you’ll find This Morning’s Juliet Sear. In terms of the festival’s own food offerings, Lort-Phillips says: “There are vegan dishes, but also wood-fired pizza, gin and burgers.”

WellFest
July 2-3, Richmond
Joe Wicks MBE and Dr Alex George, named youth mental health ambassador by the Prime Minister in 2021, will headline WellFest in Richmond’s Old Deer Park. This event, created by the team behind the successful Irish WellFest, is eagerly awaited after its delayed 2020 launch. “The festival welcomes everyone from regular gym goers to those at the start of their fitness journey, as well as families, to come together and have fun,” says co-founder Helen Ryan.
The festival is divided into different activity areas, including “WellTalk”, “WellVillage”, “WellKids” and “WellFlow”, where practitioners put attendees through their paces.

The Good Life Society
Selected weekends, July 1-25, North Wales
This is a festival on a small, exclusive scale. The Good Life Society hosts just 100 guests each weekend in July for a “Summer Camp” gathering to celebrate nature and well-being in the wild. Workshops include foraging, beekeeping and wood carving, best followed by blissful immersion in the lake and a wood-fired sauna session. Tickets include a two-course gourmet supper.
At sundown, there are campfires and live music in the walled garden. If you miss the boat this summer, there’s also an “Autumn Camp” in September.

Love Supreme
July 1-3, East Sussex
Love Supreme is primarily a jazz, funk and soul music extravaganza, but as well as music, there is long-table banqueting, a stellar wellbeing spa and scenic South Downs hikes. Yoga classes are on offer (ideal to limber up for a day of dancing), plus massages, hammocks and spaces to unwind. After a hillwalking jaunt, there’s swimming in Glynde Pool, one of the UK’s oldest outdoor pools.

ALSO Festival
July 8-10, Warwickshire
It's also billed as a “festival of ideas”, but there are plenty of activities and workshops to channel a feel-good vibe, not least the tree-lined swimming lake, which lends itself to dreamy dawn dips with, and introductions to, stand-up paddleboarding. It’s hard not to revel in nature and let a sense of bien-etre wash over you in 50 acres of Capability Brown-sculpted parkland.
There’s also comedy, cabaret, talks from authors, behavioural scientists, psychologists, and great thinkers like neuroscientist Anil Seth, a “Heart and Soul BBQ”, dining from Imad’s Syrian Kitchen and an eclectic mix of music, from the London International Gospel Choir to late-night festival folk with Lilli La Scala.
Park Farm, Compton Verney, Warwickshire CV35 9HJ; adult weekend tickets from £144; also-festival.com
LoveFit
July 15-17, Kent
“While our core demographic is 24-39, we have plenty of over 40s at LoveFit, including a high proportion of mothers and daughters who attend together,” says Lauren Bath, founder of LoveFit, which welcomes yoga and fitness instructors from London’s top studios. Spin classes, aerial yoga, paddleboarding, woodland hot tubs and hot yoga in a yurt are must-dos. Other activities include dodgeball and a “speed wall” from Clip ’n Climb Chelsea. Camping is included, but you might prefer to stay in the Brandshatch Place Hotel & Spa or the Bull Hotel a couple of miles away.
St Clere Estate, Kemsing, Kent TN15 6NL; tickets from £149; lovefitfestival.com
Wilderness
August 4-7, Oxfordshire
This four-day festival in celebrates music, the arts, food and wellbeing. Headlining this year’s stages are Jungle, Kokoroko and Years & Years, while the legendary feasting tent will see chefs Skye Gyngell, Margot Henderson and Robin Gill serving banquets. But there’s also a wild swimming lake surrounded by wood-fired hot tubs (Veuve Clicquot hot-tub bubbles optional, but recommended) and a spa, the Sanctuary, offering soothing post-party massages and facials. Four other dedicated spaces cater to wellbeing: the Studio, the Shala, Mindful Space and Wellbeing in the Wild. Try meditation with Ryan Neil of Levitate Meditation, yoga with Tania Brown or Ruben De Monte, or head off for a 6km morning run around the grounds with the Midnight Runners.

Soul Circus
August 19-21, Gloucestershire
“People in their 20s represent a very small demographic at Soul Circus,” says founder Ella Wroath. “Soul Circus is purposefully suitable for every body and every age. We offer a variety of classes – from rocket yoga (which is more intense) to yin yoga, which is slow and restorative.”
There are also hot tubs and saunas by the lake, the option to buy an unlimited weekend pass to the luxury showers (£10), circus fitness, kid-friendly corners, talks and mindfulness workshops, including a “lucid dreaming” seminar (previous speakers have included Will Young), plus over 30 hours of live music over two stages. Glittery, feel-good fun at its very best.

Wellbeing by the Lakes

This picturesque festival, back for a third year, is set in celebrated 63-year-old sculptor Simon Gudgeon’s 24-acre sculpture park in the valley of the River Frome (his wife, Monique, also 63, is head gardener) and explores what it means to be mindful in a fast-paced world. “We already had yoga retreats here with Nasreen El-Mariesh from Tonic Retreats, and we wanted to give more people of all ages a chance to immerse themselves in the positive energy of the peaceful, tranquil setting we’ve created here,” says Gudgeon.
With a dreamy lakeside setting, the timetable features illuminating talks, speakers and writers on the Riverside Stage, yoga, movement and fitness classes, floating meditation on the lakes, sound healing, breathwork, forest bathing, pilates, Qoya (South American-inspired intuitive dance), as well as a variety of creative workshops. No children under 14 are admitted. Treatments in the “Healing Hands” tents include aromatherapy, massage, reflexology, reiki and more. General admission includes a daily schedule of free talks and meditations, access to the artworks, kitchen garden and a buzzing marketplace of shopping stalls plus artisan food, drink and cooking demos. Past speakers have included Liz Earle MBE and Buddhist monk Gelong Thubten.
Pallington, Dorchester DT2 8QU; early bird entry tickets are available for £14.50 until May 31 (£17.50 thereafter – these are day passes only, as there is no accommodation on site); some classes, workshops, treatments and experiences from the timetable are booked separately at varying extra cost; wellbeingbythelakes.co.uk

September 17, Wiltshire
Verve is a one-day festival set in Cranborne Chase, an area of outstanding natural beauty, and celebrates the trinity of health, wellbeing and nature (it’s one of the UK’s first zero-waste festivals, and there’s no plastic on site). There’s sound baths, “om and bass” disco flow yoga, meditation for teens, yoga for kids, pilates, guided group runs around the farm, supper clubs, DJ’s to dance to, a CBD IV drip and a non-alcoholic bar, plus talks on everything from sober curiosity to sleep and fertility.

‘My husband thought it wouldn’t be his scene – but we’re now planning our third trip’
Rebecca Clark, 40, persuaded her husband Tom, 43, to attend their first wellbeing festival in 2018. Now the couple, both content developers from Newport in Shropshire, and children Joe, 11, Harry, nine, and Elliot, two, are regulars at the annual Big Retreat Festival in Pembrokeshire.
"I saw the Big Retreat advertised on Facebook in 2018 and I thought it sounded really lovely. I originally imagined going with a girlfriend, but when my friend couldn’t go I found myself with a spare ticket. Under-fives go free, so I convinced my husband and the kids to come. He was so sceptical. He thought it would be horrendous, not his scene, and full of extreme yoga and fitness types.
I said to him: “It can’t be that bad – there’s music in the evenings and a bar, and you don’t have to get involved in any of the activities if you don’t want to.” When we got there, he was so pleasantly surprised by how much he enjoyed it that we went the year after with another family. The children did some of the kids’ fitness classes and a 5km run, but what they loved most was spoon carving in the craft tents and trying out bushcraft while I went off and did my yoga. We all went to a sketching workshop and then tried acrylic painting together with the Pembrokeshire-based artist Louise Burdett. Tom and I also went to a gin tasting.
The food was amazing – vegetarian Glamorgan sausages with Caerphilly cheese and stone-baked pizzas. There were smoothies too, but it wasn’t about detoxing and being restrictive; it was about feeding your soul and having a good time.
There was a real mix of people – men, women, old and young, couples, groups of friends, people on their own – and a range of classes for different abilities, including gentle options. I was pregnant with Elliot while we were there in 2019 and it was fine because it’s not crowded, and you don’t have to stand for any length of time.
This year, because Elliot is only two, we’ve hired a caravan on site with a kitchen. And thankfully all the toilets and showers are really clean: I was all right with Glastonbury-style mud and portable loos in my teens and 20s, but I’m past that now that I’m 40 – although I do decide to go for it and embrace the glitter face paint.” | https://www.telegraph.co.uk/health-fitness/body/10-best-feel-good-festivals-midlifers-will-love-hot-tubs-private/ | 2022-05-14T04:20:12Z | https://www.telegraph.co.uk/health-fitness/body/10-best-feel-good-festivals-midlifers-will-love-hot-tubs-private/ | false | 2 |

Maldon singer and TikTok star, Sam Ryder, will represent the UK in the Eurovision Song Contest with his song ‘Space Man’, written during lockdown. But who exactly is this year's UK entry?
The 32-year-old singing sensation has built up a whopping 12 million followers on TikTok after entertaining fans with rousing covers of Adele, Michael Jackson and Blondie songs in the pandemic. He was announced as this year's UK representative in March.
This year’s UK entry was co-written by Ryder alongside Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Amy Wadge and Max Wolfgang, who have been involved in projects with Ed Sheeran and BTS. ‘Space Man’ has been described as a ‘solidly written’, uplifting pop song, the video for which features Ryder flying over a city of frontline workers and citizens.

The other-worldly lyrics speak of loneliness and hard times, yet there is a hopeful tone to the song. But how did Sam Ryder get to where is he today?
He began singing when he was a child and was inspired to pursue a career in music, after seeing the Canadian rock band Sum 41, live in concert when he was in school - St John Payne Catholic School in Chelmsford, Essex, which he attended between 2000 and 2007.
Sam initially found fame covering music hits on TikTok during the lockdown in March 2020 and has gained more than 12 million followers, making him the most followed UK music artist on the platform. It is believed he started TikTok singing in his mum's kitchen before his follower count began to spiral.
He later signed to the Parlophone record label, part of Warner Music Group, which represents Coldplay and David Guetta and released his debut EP, The Sun’s Gonna Rise, in 2021 which has received over a 100 million global streams. It was followed up with a sold-out tour.. He has also won famous fans including Justin Bieber, Elton John, Sia and Alicia Keys.
The competition will kick off with two semi-finals on May 10 and 12 followed by the grand final on Saturday, May 14. It will promise another night of memorable performances and eye-catching costumes as it takes place in Turin, Italy.

WATCH: Nebraska boy receives help from neighbor after drop at wrong bus stop
OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT/Gray News) - A substitute bus driver is no longer transporting students for OPS after a 7-year-old student says the driver put him out at the wrong stop.
His parents want answers.
Thankfully, the young student remembered his former next-door neighbor and was able to find his way to the street he used to live on. Quinci knows his school buddy lives here, so he talks to the Ring doorbell to get help.
“My bus driver just left me out here and made me walk home, and I don’t want my mom to worry about me! Please! You need to pick me up if you’re here!” he says while standing at the front door.
Madison Bilsten was home and told 6 News she had just arrived five minutes earlier.
“At first, I didn’t know what it was — I’m not used to my doorbell ringing. So I waited a minute, and all of a sudden, I just heard crying,” Bilsten said. “I ran up the stairs from my basement, and I looked and saw Quinci out there, and I know him because he used to live next door.”
Bilsten is Makayla’s former next-door neighbor. She said Quinci and his family have moved, but he remembered his old street and Madison’s van.
He was able to find this safe place and Blisten got the child out of the heat and called his parents. They couldn’t believe what their son told them.
You can see Quinci’s relief when Madison answers the door. He tells her his story: the bus driver didn’t know where he lived, so he just dropped him off.
“At the time that he got to my house, I think it was 98 degrees outside. He was so sweaty; he was disorientated — he thought he was never going to get home. … He told me that he told the bus driver ‘This is not my stop. I don’t know where I’m at.’ And the bus driver told him, ‘Well you need to get off and walk the rest of the way home.’”
Blisten called the child’s parents; Quinci’s dad was there in minutes to pick him up.
“His dad told me when he got in the car he said, ‘I thought I was lost. I didn’t know where I was at. I didn’t know if I would find you guys again.’”
Quinci’s parents are upset about the way the bus driver handled the situation.
“Just like any other sane adult in this world would do — would make sure that a child gets home safely. And if a 7-year-old child tells you they don’t know where they are, what’s your first instinct? To figure that out for them,” parent Makayla Walker said.
Walker said the school called to tell her there was an issue with her son’s bus, and they were sending a substitute. She called later, and they told her the bus had just left the school. Then she got a call from Blisten.
“And she was hysterical,” Walker said. “I could hear Quinci — he was hysterical — and I was like, ‘What’s going on?’ … I was shaken. I was so mad I cried. I was mad, and I was sad at the same time. He could have got kidnapped — he could have got hit by a car.”
Blisten said the what-if’s also went through her mind most of the night.
“I couldn’t sleep last night ‘cause I just thought about the what-if reasons,” she said. “What if he went to the wrong house? What if I wasn’t home? What if he tried someone else in the neighborhood who was creepy or something? You just never know.”
Walker said the top Omaha Public Schools official talked to her about her concerns.
“They have sympathized with me. The superintendent called me personally; she apologized, and they’re working on it,” she said. “And I went to student transportation today, and they say they’re investigating it. My main point of doing all of this is just to make sure something is done. I feel like every bus driver needs to go through some type of training or something to make sure this doesn’t happen to another child.”
OPS officials are investigating the incident.
Omaha Public Schools issued a statement saying:
“Our district is committed to safely transporting more than 18,000 students to and from school each day. We take that privilege and responsibility most seriously.
Investigating the incident, the drop-off occurred at the address on file for our family. We regret that this situation did not meet our standard of care for students. The substitute driver for our contracted service is no longer transporting students in our district.
Our Superintendent, district transportation staff, and school principal have all been in direct contact with our family to express our concern and support. We will continue to thoroughly review the matter.”

What are primitive skills? Primitive skills are ways to appropriately use materials found in nature to solve problems and provide life supporting needs. They are survival techniques passed down through generations, including shelter building, animal tracking, fire building, and others.
You ask yourself, "Why would I need to learn primitive skills"? With the increased frequency of natural disasters and generally more unpredictable weather, knowledge of primitive skills could make your life much more tolerable until conditions improve if you had to "live off the grid" for a while.
Eric Fuselier, an environmental scientist, will be your instructor. From a young age, Eric enjoyed learning and practicing primitive skills in the woods with his friends. As an adult, Eric has continued to learn and practice these skills while spending extended lengths of time in the Ozark wilderness as an avid hiker and backpacker. Extending the idea of self-sustainment even further, Eric and his family eventually built their own cabin they now call home.
In 2015, he founded "Ozark Primitive Skills" to help others enhance their experiences in nature by giving them the knowledge and skills they need to confidently explore the Ozark wilderness with reverence for the natural world. Fuselier has taught primitive skills workshops at the Ozark Natural Science Center, the Arkansas Living History Association, and the Bois D'Arc Primitive Skills Gathering in Missouri.

Motorists warned of huge £1,000 fines and fire hazards when driving with water bottles
DRIVERS are being warned of normal, everyday items that could cause fires this summer, after one driver was left with a burnt passenger seat.
Driving: GMB guests debate importance of car cleanliness
Motorists are being urged to avoid leaving water bottles in their car to avoid fires. Plastic and water can filter light like a magnifying glass, which concentrates the sun’s rays into a beam which can burn through fabric sheets.
This was first highlighted by Drew Anderson, a meteorologist for 69 News in the United States.
He left a clear water bottle on the passenger seat of his car and came back to see the seat had been burnt.
The sun had been hitting the bottle at the right angle to burn a hole in the front seat of his vehicle.
He said: “It’s a mistake I’ll never make again.
“When I come up to the station, I always put my big water bottle on the passenger seat.
“One day, on a really hot and humid day, I left it in my car.
“Because that beam of light was so intense on that one spot on my seat, it actually made the seat hot enough to catch on fire.”
A hole was left on his seat, burn marks on the fabric of the seat and a charred mark on his water bottle.

Drivers are being warned not to overlook simple items like water bottles, as they could cause danger.
Graham Conway, General manager of Select Car Leasing said: “In the UK, it’s easy to overlook the dangers of leaving objects in our cars in summer.
“Especially when you think other countries experience much warmer weather, but that does not mean there’s no risk.
“Parking in the shade will best protect your car, and its contents, from the summer sun.
“If you do happen to leave any vulnerable objects in your car when you’re out on a journey, store the items in your glovebox or in your boot so they’re out of direct sunlight until you reach your destination.”
Previously, NHS Property Services warned that bottles of hand sanitiser could also be a fire risk if left unattended in vehicles on hot days.
However, drivers could also be fined up to £1,000 for not drinking enough water, especially as summer approaches.
Motorists who are dehydrated risk a £1,000 fine for failure to have proper control of a vehicle due to dehydration symptoms such as dizziness and loss of focus.
Research by Loughborough University has revealed that even a mild form of dehydration is the equivalent of being over the limit when calculating errors in driving.
Mike Thompson, Chief Operating Officer at Leasing Options, said: “We’re used to checking the water and oil levels of our car before we set off but how many people check their own water levels?
“When starting your car before a long-distance journey, you may not think drinking an extra glass of water before leaving the house would affect your driving abilities, but you would be wrong.
"Drinking more water will not only have a positive effect on the body but will also prevent the chance of dizziness or loss of focus because of it.” | https://www.express.co.uk/life-style/cars/1610053/driver-warning-fines-fire-hazards-water-bottles-summer | 2022-05-14T04:31:27Z | https://www.express.co.uk/life-style/cars/1610053/driver-warning-fines-fire-hazards-water-bottles-summer | false | 1 |

Billionaire Eyes Washington’s Last Coal Plant for Green Hydrogen
Bloomberg News
,(Bloomberg) -- The clean energy unit of Australia’s Fortescue Metals Group Ltd. is considering building a green hydrogen facility near Washington State’s last operating coal-fired power station.
Fortescue Future Industries entered into a binding exclusivity agreement with an industrial park near TransAlta Corp.’s Centralia facility, which is scheduled to close in 2025, the Perth-based company said Friday in a statement. FFI said it intends to seek to employ the existing coal workforce for the proposed project.
Metals miner Fortescue and its biggest shareholder, billionaire Andrew Forrest, have announced a slew of potential investments in a bid to become one of the world’s biggest clean energy producers over the next decade. The world’s fourth-biggest iron ore exporter has a lineup of multibillion-dollar projects to reach that goal, ranging from a plan to supply Europe together with German energy giant EON SE to buying Williams Advanced Engineering Ltd.
“FFI’s goal is to turn North America into a leading global green energy heartland and create thousands of green jobs now and more in the future,” Forrest said. “Repurposing existing fossil fuel infrastructure to create green hydrogen to power the world is part of the solution to saving the planet.”

Peru’s lomo saltado is fusion cooking at its easiest and most approachable, a quick stir-fry of soy-marinated beef, tomatoes and hot peppers that reflects the country’s cultural — and culinary —influences, from Incan farmers to Chinese immigrants.
Ancient settlers in the Andes Mountains cultivated peppers and potatoes. Spanish colonizers introduced beef and sheep. Centuries later, an influx of indentured Chinese workers came, bringing ingredients such as soy sauce and ginger, as well as stir-frying.
Chinese-Peruvian cuisine became known as chifa, and lomo saltado is standard on chifa menus (lomo refers to tenderloin, but various cuts of beef are used). Potato wedges usually are mixed in and french fries come on the side.
In the version from our book “Milk Street Tuesday Nights,” which limits recipes to 45 minutes or less, we focus on the meat. It is sliced into strips, marinated in soy sauce, then wok-fried over high heat. We develop flavor by mixing ground cumin into the soy sauce marinade. Tenderloin often is used here, but we prefer sirloin tips (also called flap meat) for their meatier flavor as well as lower price. And we sear the meat instead of stir-frying, which browns the meat more for fuller flavor.
Readily available jalapeño peppers make a good substitute for the traditional yellow aji peppers. Serve it with a scoop of rice to sop up the juices.
Peruvian Steak Stir-Fry with Onions and Tomatoes (Lomo Saltado)
Start to finish: 35 minutes
Servings: 4
1½ pounds sirloin tips, trimmed, cut into 3-inch pieces and sliced against the grain into ½-inch strips
1½ teaspoons ground cumin
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
5 tablespoons soy sauce, divided
3 tablespoons grapeseed or other neutral oil, divided
1 large red onion, halved and cut into ½-inch half rings
¼ cup red wine vinegar
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1 jalapeño chili, stemmed and sliced into thin rounds
1½ cups grape tomatoes, halved
In a medium bowl, combine the steak, cumin, 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce. Marinate at room temperature for 10 minutes. Pat the meat dry and transfer to a plate.
In a 12-inch skillet over high, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil until smoking. Add half of the meat in a single layer and cook, turning once, until well browned on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes total. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with 1 tablespoon of the remaining oil and the remaining meat.
In the same pan over medium-high, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil until shimmering. Add the onion and cook until just starting to soften, stirring, for 2 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and remaining soy sauce, scraping the bottom of the pan to remove any browned bits.
Cook for 1 minute until the sauce thickens slightly. Stir in the garlic and jalapeño and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes, the meat and any accumulated juices to the pan. Cook until the meat is just warmed through, 30 seconds. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

The Gulf Coast Tiny Paws Rescue pet of the week is Peaches.
Peaches (A-1147) is 6 months old, and is currently residing in our condos at Pet Supermarket in League City. The name fits her perfectly, as she’s the color and the sweetness of a summer peach. Peaches easily adapts to new situations. Once placed in the condo, she immediately made herself right at home, playing with toys and watching the pet store activity with interest. Peaches loves head scratches, toys and attention and may give you a little verbal reminder if she doesn’t get what she wants. This fully vetted, loving and social girl is good with all cats and kittens (dogs and children unknown).
For more information, visit gulfcoasttinypawsrescue.org, or come to our next adoption event from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today at Pet Supplies Plus, 1357 E. League City Parkway in League City.

For over 50 years, I have had the pleasure, education, the study and choice to vote for either a Democrat or Republican candidate. As a lifelong Democrat I also voted for several Republican candidates, and that was my choice to do so. Policy, philosophy and platforms were studied, and I had a choice between two solid candidates, one from each party.
Today I wonder whatever happened to the GOP, the Republican Party? It doesn't seem to exist any longer. By the TV ads I see the choice now is between candidates from the Democratic Party and candidates from a group of followers of former President Donald Trump! Those running on the "so-called" Republican Party all want us to believe they have Trump's support and "want to take our country back" from something that I don't understand. Back from WHAT I ask? We have GOP candidates who left their home states (one from Connecticut and one from New Jersey) to run for national office in Pennsylvania. And they both want to "take our country back" from some place. Even the GOP candidates for governor seem to be Trump candidates with no GOP platform to study.
I don't want to "take our country back" from anything. I just want our country represented by candidates from either the Democratic or Republican Party with a platform presented to the public to study and choose from. It's a choice we all should want to make.
Good luck to my Republican friends.

Characters from Fire Emblem: Three Houses will return with a musou installment on June 24.
If you are fans of the musou, you are probably waiting for the release of Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes. After achieving great success with the strategic experience of Fire Emblem: Three Houses, the franchise has decided to return to a base where massive combat and devastating combos abound. An assortment of mechanics and features presented in a new trailer starring the brave Blue Lions.
As we might expect from a Fire Emblem Warriors, the video published by Nintendo previews an epic confrontation between the player and numerous legions of enemies. Here, between battle and battle, some of the characters belonging to the Kingdom of Faerghus and the group of the Blue Lions, which we will recognize from Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
In this sense, the advance invites us to roar together with the rest of the members of this house and fight with Dimitri, Dedue, Mercedes, Ashe, Felix, Annette, Sylvain and Ingrid. Each one has specialties such as sword attacks, powerful spells and even the possibility of fighting on horseback, so we have several options to explore which character best suits our style of play.
Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes is scheduled for release next June 24, so there are not many weeks left for fans of the genre to enjoy the fights with the iconic characters of the franchise. For its part, the game has already shown us some of its most relevant features, but it should be noted that Nintendo has also introduced us to the protagonist of this installment.

Gabriel Garko tells an unprecedented background on the set of “Life with the Sons” in 1989 with Monica Bellucci
Without any shadow of doubt Gabriel Garko is one of the most loved and respected television characters in the entertainment world. On the occasion of an interview with the weekly “Oggi”, the famous actor has decided to tell his story coming out releasing an unprecedented revelation about Monica Bellucci. Let’s find out all the details together.
Gabriel Garko has recently returned to occupy the center of the gossip. This time to make him the protagonist of a gossip there have been some statements that he himself released during an interview with the weekly “Oggi”:
I’ve been hiding for 30 years, even from the cleaning lady.
According to his story, it was on the set of “Life with the Sons” in 1989 with Monica Bellucci that the man was certain of his sexual orientation. In fact, it was thanks to the actress that she realized she was gay. This is his revelation:
Unwatchable, she was so beautiful. Monica was the confirmation of what I had just understood: if I don’t feel like jumping on a woman like that, I told myself, it means that I prefer something else.
Gabriel Garko had a safe place of his own. To be himself, the actor hid in his Villa in Zagarolo. She also had one at the time relation with a guy named Riccardo:
Here we were free, even if when someone came we had to hide. Was I inviting friends over for dinner? At the end of the evening he pretended to leave, took a half walk and then came back. When the cleaning lady arrived in the morning, she would be in the guest room bed even though we had slept together. It lasted 11 years, she saved me.
For well 30 yearsGarko pretended to be hetero. However, when he came out to the whole world, with the fan nothing has changed:
They still jump on me. The opposite would be stupid: I said I’m gay, not that I have leprosy. They amuse me, their assaults make me happy. Some think they can convert me, some do it for fun or for passion.

Post-pandemic, there is an increase in micromobility vehicles, people are now more inclined towards socializing with responsibility. E-bike sales in Europe and the United States exploded after Covid 19. Low-emission transport solutions such as e-scooters, e-bikes, and regular bicycles come with a benefit. If you want to opt for a sustainable future micro-mobility is one of the best tools to cut or remove harmful greenhouse gases. 28% of total emissions is transport related, with current scenario micromobility has become the need of hour. If we make changes in our transportation networks, we will be making progress toward a sustainable and environment friendly future.
Over the last few years, the rise in micromobility companies such as ofo, mobike, citi bike, and jump bike have also increased the interest of consumers in convenient options for transportations. Small, lightweight vehicles like bicycles, e-bikes, electric scooters, electric skateboards, shared bicycles, and electric pedal assisted (pedelec) bicycles are trendy among youngsters for last-mile transportation. According to a survey conducted by McKinsey Center for Future Mobility in July 2021, 70% of respondents are willing to use micromobility vehicles for their exhibit. It is anticipated that the micromobility sector will be worth $300 to $500 billion by 2030 as per Mckinsey and Company. Thus, in the coming years, a steep rise in the number of jobs available in this sector will be seen across the globe.
For students who want to pursue their career in the automobile sector especially in micromobility overseas, Germany is the most likeable and preferable option for any international student, the reason behind this is the availability of finest technologies and job opportunities to the students. There are several options available for students who want to study automobile related courses. Leading automobile companies like Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Porsche, VW are working towards new mobility – micromobility.

One of the only good things to come out of 2020 (we’re sure we don’t need to remind you that there really were not many) was Normal People.
The BBC’s adaptation of Sally Rooney’s best-selling novel charting the love story of teenagers Marianne and Connell was lauded by viewers and critics when it was released during the first lockdown, and made overnight stars of its leads Daisy Edgar-Jones and Paul Mescal.
And while it doesn’t look like fans will be getting a second series, that’s OK, because this week sees the arrival of Conversations With Friends.
Adapted from another of Sally Rooney’s hit books, the 12-part series is set to be your new obsession – here’s what we can tell you about it…
What is Conversations With Friends about?
An official synopsis reads: “Frances is observant, cerebral and sharp. Her ex-girlfriend, now best friend, Bobbi is self-assured, outspoken and compelling. Though they broke up three years ago, Frances and Bobbi are virtually inseparable and perform spoken word poetry together in Dublin. It’s at one of their shows that they meet Melissa, an older writer, who is fascinated by the pair.
“Bobbi and Frances start to spend time with Melissa and her husband, Nick, a handsome but reserved actor. While Melissa and Bobbi flirt with each other openly, Nick and Frances embark on an intense, secret affair that is surprising to them both. Soon the affair begins to test the bond between Frances and Bobbi, forcing Frances to reconsider her sense of self, and the friendship she holds so dear.”
Who is in the cast of Conversations With Friends?
Screen newcomer Alison Oliver plays Frances, an English student and aspiring writer studying at Trinity College in Dublin, who also performs spoken word poetry with her best friend (and ex-girlfriend), Bobbi, with whom she has an intense friendship.
Frances is described as “smart, sharp and observant”, with Alison saying of her character: “When we meet Frances at this point in her life she’s stuck in a lot of patterns of behaviour, and there’s a lot of change happening within her relationships with Bobbi, her dad, her own identity and changes within her body that she’s having to figure out.
“It’s putting her in situations where she has to confront her own vulnerabilities and defences, and confront life in a sense, which is something she’s always trying to avoid. It’s a tricky time for her, but it’s very compelling to observe.”
Sasha Lane (Loki, Utopia, American Honey) plays Bobbi, Frances’ best friend, who she remains inseparable with, despite their romantic break-up years prior. Bobbi is “undeniably cool and charming” and is drawn to Melissa – played by Jemima Kirke (Girls, Sex Education) – a married successful writer.
“I feel Melissa is like a spark to her,” Sasha says of her character, Bobbi. “[Melissa’s] clearly intelligent and when they first meet, she radiates strong energy, I think she’s the opposite to some of the people she hangs around with, so I think Bobbi is attracted to the fact that there’s someone who is as big of a mountain as her.”
Melissa’s husband Nick is played by Joe Alwyn (A Christmas Carol, The Favourite) who is described as “reserved and insecure”. When we first meet the couple, they are seemingly in a strange place in their relationship, with “lots of cracks” lying beneath the surface.
“They are functioning but there’s no real warmth, love or spark between them that there might have once been,” Joe says, with Melissa adding that Nick is “passive enough to allow just about anything, even an affair”.
However, he soon develops an undeniable chemistry with Frances.
Also among the cast are Justine Mitchell (Cheat, Finding Joy) and Tommy Tiernan (Derry Girls, Small Potatoes) as Frances’ divorced parents Paula and Dennis.
Alex Murphy (The Young Offenders) stars as Philip, a friend of Frances and Bobbi’s who gets Frances her summer internship, while Tadhg Murphy (Brassic, Absentia) and Sallay Garnett (Striking Out, Finding Joy) play couple Derek and Evelyn, who are close friends of Nick and Melissa.
Kerry Fox (Shallow Grave) also stars as Melissa’s mentor and agent Valerie, who also owns the Croatian holiday villa that serves as one of the settings in the series.
How is it different from Normal People?
Being the second BBC adaptation from Sally Rooney, Conversations With Friends is bound to draw comparisons to its predecessor Normal People.
While there are some common themes of relationships and coming of age, executive producer and director Lenny Ambrahamson explains how it is different to Marianne and Connell’s more traditional love story.
“In Conversations with Friends, you have a much more varied set of relationships and a complex story with a single focus, which is Frances,” Lenny says.
“It’s more of a coming-of-age story than anything else but that story is told through these relationships she has with Bobbi, Nick and Melissa. In an interesting way, it’s a messier and complicated story which doesn’t give easy solutions or conclusions.”
While the world the characters inhabit is “similar” in both dramas, Conversation With Friends has a “different visual palette” than Normal People and was shot on 35mm film.
“It’s probably more adult and grown up,” says executive producer Ed Guiney. “The nature of the story is more about the challenges of being an adult, it lives more in that world than Normal People did.”
He added of shooting on film: “It gives it a texture, quality and a beauty which is very particular to the show.”
However, like Normal People, Conversations With Friends will be told in 12 half-hour episodes.
Originally, Conversations With Friends had been developed as a feature film with BBC Films, but explaining how that changed, Ed says: “We commissioned a script and were working away on that when the book for Normal People came out and we were lucky enough to become involved in making that as a TV series.
“It was through the process of making Normal People that we understood the way to make Conversations with Friends was also as a TV series.”
How faithful is the TV adaptation of Conversation With Friends to the book?
According to executive producer Emma Norton, Conversations with Friends was “much harder to adapt” than Normal People, which she says served as a good way of learning how to adapt the second drama.
“It’s a very different book, written in the first person and with a much more complex narrative line running through it,” she says.
“Bobbi, Melissa and Nick are described through Frances, but in the show, the audience sees those characters with their own eyes. We had to work out what that would look like when it wasn’t just Frances inflecting those characters. We had to work out what they would say, not just what she’d heard them say.
“There was a lot of filling in that was different to Normal People, as that moved between two characters and two story strands, you didn’t have one person’s viewpoint shaping that.”
Alison, who plays Frances, says the series will remain faithful to the book, though, despite some things being translated slightly differently for TV.
“The heart of all the characters remains completely intact,” she says. “I think with any adaptation there’s things that will work in a book but then when they are translated into a visual form might not have the same effect, so there’s slight differences but the narrative and Sally’s tone remain true and present throughout.”
When can I watch Conversations With Friends?
All episodes of Conversations With Friends will drop together as a boxset on BBC iPlayer on 15 May at 10pm, also airing on BBC Three and BBC One.
It will also air in the US on streaming service Hulu. | https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/conversations-with-friends-cast-air-date-how-to-watch-normal-people-sally-rooney_uk_627cdf8fe4b0eb0f070e0659 | 2022-05-14T04:58:45Z | https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/conversations-with-friends-cast-air-date-how-to-watch-normal-people-sally-rooney_uk_627cdf8fe4b0eb0f070e0659 | false | 1 |
Kim Kardashian: The summer pandemic of hiding | Opinion
A few days ago the media echoed the extreme measures that Kim Kardashian took to “fit” into something much more powerful than a dress: a macho and superficial society that beats its chest by disguising fatphobia as health concern. Summer arrives and, with it, light clothing, sunlight, scrutiny and exposure. The season of the year of vulnerability and shame felt by many women who are caught in the loop of aspiration to be perfect. The miracle diets arrive, the absurd advice and the famous ones pointed out on the covers of the magazines for having skin with cells that group together, move and do not wrinkle. The summer pandemic of hiding, comparing and torturing oneself is here. But how good it would be to put an end once and for all to destructive messages, sidelong glances and harmful attitudes. And how nice it would be to surround ourselves with good references, stop hating ourselves, escape fear, be free and embrace with love the skin we inhabit. Because this is not life.

It is hearing!
When I started working as a French teacher in a high school in Cadiz, I noticed that the students omitted the articles in certain sentences: “my father works in the Diputación”, “Juan studies in Salesianos”, etc. Currently, in any newscast, journalists say “the president receives in Moncloa…”, “Casa Real announces…”. Also, they confused the verbs hear and listen. Hearing is the faculty that those of us who are not deaf have, I told them, while listening means paying attention to grasp what someone wants to tell us. Hence it is ridiculous to hear an explosion! But, if it says so on TV… Is it okay? And the RAE, what do you think?

Let’s not forget the Afghan women
Since last August, the Taliban have regained power in Afghanistan, where they have re-imposed the burqa and prohibited women and girls from studying. Enclosure in a cloak with hardly any breathing is a living death. Women have the same rights as men and we must cry out against the serious consequences of the decisions that relegate them with unjust laws, always incomprehensible and even more so in the 21st century. We must not stop fighting this degrading system.

above good and evil
There are three types of people: the geniuses, the scoundrels and the common people. Society advances because of geniuses and normal people, the vast majority, and goes backwards because of the misdeeds of scoundrels. These scoundrels believe they are above good and evil, due to their privileged position or privileged contacts. Society has to defend itself against them: people who trade in the evil of others to enrich themselves, as with the issue of buying masks. Society has to implement a culture of frontal rejection of these immoralities, so that they believe moral jurisprudence and know that, even if they get rich and justice does not judge them, they will be marked by their dishonest acts.

This Is Us season 6 episode 17: How will it set up series finale?
This Is Us season 6 episode 17 is poised to come on NBC this Tuesday and odds are, you know already what we are dealing this. This is an episode poised to deliver the gut-wrenching death of Rebecca Pearson, otherwise known as something that no one other there wants to see. Yet, it’s inevitable if we want to see what’s on the other side for the Big Three.
So will we get a taste of some of this on Tuesday’s new episode? Can we have realistic expectations for that?
New This Is Us video! Take a look below to get more expectations on season 6 episode 17. Once you do just that, remember to SUBSCRIBE to Matt & Jess on YouTube! We’ll be breaking down the show further the rest of the season.
While nothing is confirmed, don’t be shocked if the conclusion of “The Train” serves two functions: Offers a goodbye to Rebecca, but also sets the stage for what will be coming up next. This Is Us is already asking a lot out of its viewers emotionally at this point. They want you to be able to breathe easier entering the finale and also may want to avoid a near-constant dose of sadness. After all, shouldn’t they want that at this point?
All indications are at this point that the show is going to end on a slightly-more hopeful note. That means there will be a chance to see more of where the story progresses after the fact for Kevin, Randall, and Kate. While nothing is confirmed here, let’s just cross our fingers crossed that there is hope within the sadness. We want to see the positive impact that Rebecca had on her children, and how they will remember her lessons the rest of their days. Getting a taste of that in episode 17 would be more than welcome.

Klay Thompson knocked down eight 3-pointers on the way to 30 points, Stephen Curry scored 29 with six 3s, and the Golden State Warriors advanced to the Western Conference finals by beating the Memphis Grizzlies 110-96 in Game 6 on Saturday.
Curry found his shooting touch late and made two straight baskets late in the third for a 78-77 lead entering the final 12 minutes. Draymond Green contributed 14 points, 16 rebounds and eight assists.
Kevon Looney grabbed 22 rebounds and Andrew Wiggins scored 10 of his 18 points in the fourth with a pair of timely 3s.
Golden State — eliminated by Memphis in the play-in tournament last year — withstood a testy series to advance to the conference finals for the first time since 2019, when the franchise reached its fifth straight NBA Finals before losing to Toronto in the deciding Game 6.
The third-seeded Warriors will face the Phoenix-Dallas winner in the conference finals. Game 7 of that series is Sunday in Phoenix.
“Whoop that trick!” the delighted, raucous home crowd chanted in the waning moments, the fans' steal away from Memphis.
Dillon Brooks scored 30 points with a career-best seven 3-pointers but picked up his second flagrant foul of the series. Desmond Bane added 25.
Curry checked back in for the final 8:21 and delivered a 3 with 5:45 remaining off a beautiful bounce pass by Green. Looney found Green for an easy dunk the next time down, capping a decisive 10-0 run.
After Thursday's 134-95 debacle on the Grizzlies' home floor in which they trailed by as many as 55 , the Warriors were determined to do everything better, especially cutting down on the 22 turnovers leading to 29 points.
The Warriors outrebounded the Grizzlies 70-44, becoming the first team to grab 70 rebounds in a playoff game since San Antonio had 75 against Denver on May 4, 1983.
Bane scored the first two baskets of the game before the Warriors ran off 10 consecutive points, with a pair of layups by Green and a 3 by both Curry and Thompson.
Looney started after Jonathan Kuminga had the previous three games following the injury to guard Gary Payton II.
He broke his left elbow in an awkward fall after being hit over the head by Brooks in Game 2 that earned Brooks a Flagrant 2 foul and one-game suspension.
He was booed loudly again at every chance by the sellout crowd at Chase Center.
When Payton was shown on the big screen during a first-quarter timeout he received a rousing ovation and touched his hand to his heart before encouraging them to get louder.
Memphis again played without All-Star guard Ja Morant, who missed his third straight game with a bone bruise in his troublesome right knee that the Grizzlies blamed on Jordan Poole pulling on the knee while going for a loose ball in Game 3.
Kiwi star Steven Adams limped off gingerly on his right ankle and headed to the locker room 3:23 before halftime but returned.
At the same time, Brooks received a Flagrant foul 1 for taking down Curry and the Grizzlies forward and Thompson were hit with double technicals. | https://www.1news.co.nz/2022/05/14/curry-thompson-seal-series-for-warriors-eliminate-grizzlies/ | 2022-05-14T05:55:25Z | https://www.1news.co.nz/2022/05/14/curry-thompson-seal-series-for-warriors-eliminate-grizzlies/ | true | 4 |

Former Vice President of Nigeria and a presidential aspirant under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has pledged to restructure the country if given the opportunity to emerge as the president of the country.
Alhaji Atiku made the pledge while addressing PDP delegates including Governor Ifeanyi Okowa at the Unity Hall, Government House, Asaba.
The former Vice President outlined other areas he would focus attention on if given the opportunity to preside over the affairs of the nation to include unity of the country, insecurity, economy and education, stressing that the country was at a cross road and needed an experienced hand to navigate through.
He thanked delegates from Delta for the support given to him at the Port Harcourt convention in 2019 and appealed to them to vote for him in the PDP presidential convention billed for 28 and 29, this month in Abuja.
Alhaji Abubakar said the issue of power rotation was enshrined in the party’s constitution, pointing out that what the PDP needed at this time was to grab the power before entrenching rotation.
“We want to thank you very much indeed particularly for the support that we received from Delta in the last primaries that took place in Port Harcourt. We cherished that support and we value that support and we shall not forget that support.
“Having said that, we have come to another season of elections in the country but this season is unique because Nigeria has never found itself in this type of situation facing numerous challenges.
“That was why when l declared to run for the presidential election this time around, l identified five key areas that this country requires immediate attention.
“First of all, l identified the lack of unity in our country today. Why lack of unity because we have the government of APC which does not identify with our diversity, which does not respect our diversity and governs as if we all don’t matter.
“And as a result of that, we have a very divided country and l said l will tackle this disunity on the first day of my presidency if elected,” Abubakar said.
The PDP presidential hopeful called on delegates to put competence and credibility above money in casting their votes for aspirants to fly the flag of the party.
On his part, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa said Alhaji Abubakar had the experience to take the country out of the challenges bedevilling the nation, affirming that the issue of restructuring was germane to the people of the Niger Delta region in the choice of who should rule the country in 2023.
Governor Okowa said the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) was one way to enhance a credible election and charged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to ensure that transparency was not compromised.
He said delegates from the state will scrutinize the presidential aspirants and throw their weight behind the most credible at the forthcoming party’s primaries.
“We have a lot of insecurity at the moment. Issues concerning education has been identified but very importantly to us in the South South geopolitical zone, is the issue of restructuring.
“Having talked about these key issues, we have noted your speech and we believe that you are a man we can trust because the issues that you have raised are issues that concern us and concern this nation.
“And we believe that we require a lot of experience to be able to deal with these issues without learning on the ropes.
“So, at the time decisions would be made by Deltans, a lot of these issues would be examined. We would examine all aspirants who will present themselves at the convention on the 28 of this month and Deltans will always vote for the person that has a great capacity
“But we are convinced that you are and you were in a team that was able to find solutions at the time such things happened in the past. I believe that that will score you very high in our minds at the time that we are taking decisions,” the governor added.
Also speaking, a member of the Atiku Support Organisation (ASO), Senator Dino Melaye described Alhaji Abubakar as a unifier and a servant leader that has cure for all the problems in the country.
The state Chairman of the PDP, Chief Kingsley Esiso said delegates will support aspirants with proven integrity. | https://www.thenews-chronicle.com/ill-restructure-nigeria-if-elected-president-atiku/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=ill-restructure-nigeria-if-elected-president-atiku | 2022-05-14T05:59:55Z | https://www.thenews-chronicle.com/ill-restructure-nigeria-if-elected-president-atiku/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=ill-restructure-nigeria-if-elected-president-atiku | false | 7 |

There are two kinds of people out there: those who have mastered the art of letting their hair air-dry to accidental perfection and those who'd rather reach for the hairdryer, straighteners or tongs than deal with soggy shoulders.
If London's top hair experts are right in their summer haircut predictions, we might be ready to ditch heat styling altogether. Painstakingly polished looks are set to give way to shaggier, more lived-in styles as the weather hots up. Take the trending kinky fringe, fluffy layers and jagged lob, for example. That's before we've touched on the heatless waves and uncomplicated claw clip styles taking over TikTok. One thing they all have in common? They tend to look best when you skip the hair tools and let your hair dry naturally. Forget limp and frizzy, though. With the right products and techniques, it's possible to twist, tuck and scrunch damp hair into effortless perfection — because whether your hair is coily, curly, wavy or poker straight, it definitely needs a little guidance.

From how to create faux curtain bangs and TikTok's 'S-waves' to nailing a wash-and-go style, here are the easiest air-dried hair trends to try now — with help from the UK's top hairstylists.
Faux Curtain Bangs
Getting a fringe is a commitment for many reasons. It's a stylist's job to make bangs look full and selfie-worthy but if you're not a dab hand with a hairdryer, or you're a little lazy about booking in for a regular trim, fringes can often fall flat. That's where faux curtain bangs come in. The look is something of a signature for London-based stylists The Hair Bros aka Sean-Paul and Nick, and it works best on wavy or straight hair.
Sean suggests raking a wide-tooth comb through damp hair, then applying a good helping of styling cream, using your fingers to pull it through. He recommends Hairstory's Hair Balm, which smooths frizz and defines hair texture, but try JVN Hair Complete Air Dry Cream, £21, if you're after serious volume. Simply part your hair down the middle and tuck each side behind your ears while you allow it to air-dry. It's even better if you wash your hair in the evening and head to bed when it's almost dry. "Doing this will give hair that nice framing effect around the face," said Sean. He recommends committing to not touching it too much, otherwise you could iron out the shape. Take inspiration from DJ FYI ROBYN on Instagram.

Soft Curls
Air-drying can turn up the volume on hair but stylists, TikTokers and influencers are moving away from lacquered curls and celebrating texture in all its glory. Take a cue from surrealist artist @sensukii on Instagram and her halo of soft curls. Hairstylist Jason Collier likes Shea Moisture's Coconut & Hibiscus Curl & Shine Shampoo, £10.99, and Conditioner, £10.99. "They gently cleanse and hydrate the hair, while detangling, to give bouncy and healthy curls."
When it comes to styling, The Hair Bros' Roxy Estella suggests distributing product through damp hair. Award-winning hairstylist Charlotte Mensah recommends applying a couple of drops of Manketti Hair Oil, £48, combined with Manketti Oil Pomade, £52, after washing, then letting your curls air-dry. The key to great shape, says Roxy? Not dragging your fingers through curls like a comb.
Beach Waves
If your hair is straight or wavy and you're after just a little more definition like this style created by Francesca Inverarity at The Hair Bros, spritz a sea salt spray (like VO5 Give Me Texture Rough & Sexy Sea Salt Spray, £3) through damp lengths, avoiding your roots. When hair is around 50% dry, separate it into two sections at each side and then twist each portion around your fingers to create a rope shape. Once that's done, twist each rope into a knot at the nape of your neck and secure with hair slides and unpin when you head out the door. To smooth down any frizzy bits or flyaways, veil your hair with Andrew Fitzsimons APRES SEXE Texture Spray for Hair, £9, and use your fingertips to separate the waves for a slightly mussed-up look.

Wash & Go
"Type 4 hair is prone to shrinkage and its delicate nature means that you should treat it in the same way you would a silk dress," said Jason. "Cleanse it gently, handle it with care and moisturise at every step of the way." Chie Sato, head of education at Taylor Taylor London, suggests starting by co-washing your hair. (Depending on how long it's been since your last wash day and how much product build-up there is on your scalp, you might want to opt for a nourishing shampoo instead.)
"Curly or kinky hair textures will need lots of moisture to keep them hydrated and protected from damage so make sure to use a thicker, hydrating conditioner afterwards, which is specially formulated for curls," said Chie. Try Creme of Nature Argan Oil Intensive Conditioning Treatment, £4.99. "While the conditioner is working in, detangle by using your fingers and then a wide-tooth comb or a wet brush."
@andreawiththecurls Reasons why your wash n go doesn’t come out right/ frizzy #naturalhair #washngo #hairtips #type4hair ♬ son original - Sibylle
The best time to apply your styling products is while your hair is wet so that your strands don't swell up when they dry, said Chie. "Section your hair for even distribution of product and then smooth your curl-defining cream over the hair using both hands." Chie suggests avoiding scrunching hair so as not to disturb your natural curl pattern. "Follow with a gel or holding product to keep the shape," said Chie. "To minimise frizz you can diffuse your hair on a low setting, or let it air-dry for healthy, conditioned lengths." If you have 4b hair, look to natural hair influencer @zoeallamby on Instagram or head to TikTok, which is bursting with practical and informative wash-and-go routines for all hair types.

S-Waves
"If you have wavy or curly hair, a great way to style it without heat is to scrunch it so that it dries into a natural wave," said Chie. We love these S-shaped waves by Roxy. "While the hair is wet, tip it upside down and scrunch in a lightweight curl cream or serum, focusing on the ends to create definition," said Chie. Try Only Curls Hydrating Curl Creme, £16, or Aussie Work That Curl Hair Serum With Jojoba Seed Oil, £9.99. "Using a soft towel, continue to scrunch until the hair is partially dry, then flip and let the air do the rest of the work."
If you have any leftover frizzy pieces when it dries, you can use a serum to twist those pieces to give them more definition, said Chie. "Applying the LØRE Originals Define + Finish, £17, to an air-dried wave will add definition and give a light hold, as well as lending gentle, all-day moisture and frizz-reduction thanks to the cotton and grapeseed oil."
Springy Curls
Jason explained that you don't have to do very much to curls but it's all about finding the right way to condition them so that they're buoyant even without heat styling. "You might need a little trial and error to work out a haircare regime that suits you," he said, but a dedicated curl shampoo is a must. Try Maui Moisture Curl Quench+ Coconut Oil Shampoo, £8.99, which detangles and imparts bounce and shine.

If you're letting your hair air-dry, drench it in moisture first with something like Shea Moisture Coconut & Hibiscus Curl & Shine Curl Enhancing Smoothie, £12.99 — a great product if your hair is on the thicker side and gets dry in the sun. To accentuate springy curls, like @arantzagoett, pick out a handful of strands and twist them around your fingertips before letting your hair dry naturally.
Heatless Waves
You don't have to braid your hair into a pair of socks or a dressing gown cord (thanks, TikTok) to achieve heatless waves like @yolaue on Instagram. If you have straight hair there are plenty of different ways to create heatless waves, said Chie, and the simplest way is to plait your hair when it's damp. "Sleep in it overnight so that it dries to create a subtle wave," said Chie. "You can alter the pattern of the wave by changing the type of plait you do. For example, a smaller, thinner braid will create a tighter wave. A thicker or loosely braided plait will create a looser, more subtle wave." Just ensure your hair is around 70% dry before going to sleep so as not to wake up with wet hair.
The Shag
The shag haircut — and even subtle layers — shows no sign of slowing down and the best part is that cuts like these work on most hair types, from ultra curly to poker straight. @lovingthatcurl, stylist and educator at Ouidad New York, created this beachy shag on influencer @wuzg00d. For a look that isn't too uniform or perfect, split your hair into a handful of sections. Enlisting a moisturising wave or curl cream, like Noughty Wave Hello Curl Defining Taming Cream, £6.99, twist some strands, scrunch others and pull the rest taut before letting it air-dry. You can do the same on straight hair, too. Just look to this style by freelance hairstylist Woody Rattana on Instagram.

Eurovision entrant Sam Ryder will take to the stage in a bid to improve the UK’s standing during the grand final tonight.
The 32-year-old TikTok star is one of 25 acts vying for the top prize during the climax of the week-long contest in Turin, Italy.
The singer will perform his uplifting pop song Space Man, 22nd in the running order, in front of a crowd of almost 7,000 fans at the Pala Olimpico arena.
He co-wrote the track with Grammy-winning songwriter Amy Wadge, who has previously worked with Ed Sheeran and Max Wolfgang.
At the 2019 contest the UK continued a run of poor results and came in last place with Michael Rice’s Bigger Than Us, while the Netherlands came top with Duncan Laurence’s Arcade.
The 2020 competition was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic. Last year UK hopeful James Newman was the only contestant to score zero points in the final, ending up bottom on the leader board.
This year’s final features the 20 successful nations from the week’s two semi-finals, as well as the so-called big five of the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain.
The Czech Republic’s We Are Domi will perform the track Lights Off in the opening slot while Estonia will close the show with Stefan singing Hope.
Eurovision favourites, Ukraine’s folk-rap group Kalush Orchestra, will also perform their song Stefania 12th in the running order.
Reigning Eurovision Song Contest champion Italian rock band Maneskin will also be taking to the stage to perform their new single Supermodel.
Graham Norton will return for his 13th contest to cast a watchful eye over proceedings while delivering his customary barbs.
The Eurovision Song Contest final, hosted by TV presenter Alessandro Cattelan and singers Laura Pausini and Mika, airs on BBC One from 8pm until midnight. | https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/entertainment/music/4292756/sam-ryder-to-fly-the-flag-for-the-uk-in-eurovision-final/ | 2022-05-14T06:27:10Z | https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/entertainment/music/4292756/sam-ryder-to-fly-the-flag-for-the-uk-in-eurovision-final/ | true | 4 |
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — A federal judge ruled Wednesday that a lawsuit against two former police officers accused of protecting a sex trafficking ring in northern Virginia in exchange for sex can move forward.
The former Fairfax County officers, Michael O. Barbazette of Manassas and Jason J. Mardocco of Gainesville, had asked a judge at a hearing Friday in U.S. District Court in Alexandria to have the case tossed out.
In a ruling issued Wednesday, Judge Anthony Trenga rejected the motion to dismiss. He did toss out some counts on technical issues, but is allowing the plaintiff to file an amended complaint that will comply with the technical failings and allows the substantive accusations to move forward intact.
The lawsuit is filed on behalf of a Costa Rican woman identified in court papers only as Jane Doe. She alleges she was duped into coming to the U.S. in 2010 on the promise of work as a "social escort." When she arrived in the U.S., though, her traffickers took her passport and forced her into prostitution for several years.
When she was finally able to escape in 2015, she reported her traffickers to the FBI. She says in the lawsuit she did not go to Fairfax County Police because she was warned by other women that Fairfax County police were protecting the traffickers.
Hazel Sanchez Cerdas pleaded guilty in federal court in Alexandria to running the prostitution ring and she was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison in 2019. Prosecutors in that case said women in Sanchez's operation were required to have sex with up to 17 customers a day and instructed to comply with requests even for particularly humiliating or dangerous sex acts.
At Friday's hearing, lawyers for the accused officers said the complaint was thin on substantiating details and should be dismissed.
Jane Doe's lawyer, Vic Glasberg, acknowledged he still needs to ferret out more details, but said there is substantial evidence already to support Doe's claims.
— One of the officer's phone numbers was found on a cellphone linked to the trafficking ring, the lawsuit states.
— The woman's claims were investigated by the FBI and sent over to the Fairfax County police's Public Corruption unit. After that occurred, the officers resigned.
— The lawsuit also includes allegations from a former Fairfax County detective, William Woolf, who was assigned to a federally funded trafficking task force. Woolf alleges in the complaint that Barbazette, his supervisor, took an unusual interest in his work and tried to hamper his investigations.
Ultimately, the lawsuit alleges that Barbazette and Mardocco would tip off Sanchez when police would conduct sex trafficking stings so she could steer clear of them, in exchange for sex.
"There's a whole boatload of evidence to suggest there's something rotten in the state of Denmark," Glasberg said at Friday's hearing.
The lawyer for Barbazette and Mardocco acknowledged the fact that the officers were asked to resign "looks bad, but it doesn't go to show there's some conspiracy here. It doesn't carry the weight the plaintiff suggests it does."
The lawsuit also accuses supervisors in the Fairfax County Police Department, including then-Chief Ed Roessler, of covering up the officers' misdeeds. The lawyer for Roessler and the other supervisory defendants declined comment after Friday's hearing. | https://m.startribune.com/suit-moves-forward-alleging-cops-protected-sex-traffickers/600172457/ | 2022-05-14T06:29:47Z | https://m.startribune.com/suit-moves-forward-alleging-cops-protected-sex-traffickers/600172457/ | true | 17 |

LONDON — Britain and the European Union were once again at loggerheads over Brexit on Wednesday, after the U.K. government ramped up threats to scrap parts of its trade treaty with the bloc, saying the rules are blocking the formation of a new government in Northern Ireland.
Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said the government would "not shy away from taking action" if it can't reach agreement with the bloc.
The EU warned that renegotiating the legally binding agreement "is not an option." Any move by Britain to unilaterally rewrite the rules would bring legal action from the bloc that could escalate into a trade war.
Arrangements for Northern Ireland — the only part of the U.K. that shares a border with an EU nation — have been the thorniest subject of contention in the U.K.'s divorce from the 27-nation bloc, which became final at the end of 2020.
A deal was agreed to keep the Irish border free of customs posts and other checks, because an open border is a key pillar of the peace process that ended decades of violence in Northern Ireland. Instead, there are checks on some goods entering Northern Ireland from the rest of the U.K.
The arrangement is opposed by many of Northern Ireland's British unionists, who say the new checks have created a barrier with the rest of the U.K. that undermines their British identity. The Democratic Unionist Party, which came second in last week's Northern Ireland Assembly election, is refusing to help form a government until the arrangements, known as the Northern Ireland Protocol, are substantially changed or scrapped.
Under Northern Ireland's power-sharing rules, a government can't be formed without the support of both the main unionist and nationalist parties. Sinn Fein won the most seats last week, the first time a party that seeks to unite Northern Ireland with the republic has topped the voting.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson said the DUP opposition shows the arrangement does not have the support of both Northern Ireland's nationalist and unionist communities, and as such is undermining the 1998 Good Friday peace accord.
"Things have got to command cross-community support," he said. "Plainly the Northern Ireland Protocol fails to do that and we've got to sort it out."
U.K.-EU talks on resolving differences over trade rules have reached an impasse. Britain's Conservative government has accused the bloc of being needlessly "purist" in its approach to the rules, while the EU says Britain is failing to honor a legally binding deal that Prime Minister Boris Johnson agreed to.
The British government has suggested it could legislate to override parts of the deal by removing checks on goods bound for Northern Ireland — a move that would infuriate the bloc.
Irish Foreign Minister Simon Coveney said the tough talk from British politicians had "gone down really badly" with EU leaders, and he urged Britain to reconsider.
EU chief Brexit official Maroš Šefčovič said Tuesday that the bloc had "worked tirelessly to propose creative and durable solutions, showing flexibility on how the Protocol should be implemented."
He warned that "the Protocol, as a cornerstone of the Withdrawal Agreement, is an international agreement. Its renegotiation is not an option. The European Union is united in this position."
Truss, who is in charge of negotiations with the bloc, said in a statement that EU proposals "fail to properly address the real issues affecting Northern Ireland and in some cases would take us backward."
"Our preference has always been for a negotiated solution but we will not shy away from taking action to stabilize the situation in Northern Ireland if solutions cannot be found," she said.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) — Several bands will get together Saturday for a concert to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation. One of the band members has a special connection to the organization.
Ben Weeks just finished his freshman year at Transylvania University. He plays bass in the band "Mom's Mad".
"We actually just put out two new songs and we all recorded them in this basement," he said after his band finished a rehearsal at his parents' house Thursday evening.
They will play the Aid the Industry Wish Fest Saturday evening at Wildside Winery in Versailles. Weeks has a special place in his heart for the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
"I am actually a Make-A-Wish kid," he said. "For a week, I was really sick. We finally decided to go up to Cincinnati Children's Hospital and found out that I have an autoimmune disorder called autoimmune hepatitis. The liver basically attacks itself, thinking it's a foreign object."
Weeks got a liver transplant in the spring of 2020. When the doctors removed his liver Ben's family said they were surprised to see it was even worse than they thought.
"I would probably be dead," Weeks said.
As part of his recovery, the Make-A-Wish Foundation got involved.
"My first wish was to go to England to see where the Beatles started, where Zeppelin recorded," Weeks said.
As the pandemic took hold, though, the trip was canceled. Instead, they'll help him with another project - his 1976 Triumph TR6.
"Just to get it into show condition so I can bring it to shows, show it off," he said.
Weeks is thankful for their generosity and he hopes he and his bandmates can help pay it forward.
"It feels great. I love it. It's great to be able to help other kids get their wishes," he said.

Weeks' band, Mom's Mad, will hit the stage around 9 PM. | https://www.lex18.com/news/music-festival-supports-make-a-wish-bandmember-has-special-connection | 2022-05-14T06:35:06Z | https://www.lex18.com/news/music-festival-supports-make-a-wish-bandmember-has-special-connection | true | 1 |
Unless they are the guest of honor and except for the cake part, birthday parties are not much fun for a 6-year-old. So when my son and daughter-in-law were invited to a nice restaurant for a birthday celebration, they asked if I would keep their little boy Zeke.
Why yes. I would.
I love all of my grandkids, each in their own special ways.
And I love to spend time with them, doing the things each of them enjoys.
For Zeke, that includes a lot of action. So in order to be at maximum readiness for his visit, I went home from work and took a big ol’ nap so I would be at peak energy.
He arrived right on time, and immediately was ready to take off.
My son left his car seat in case we needed it, but Zeke and I have already established a routine of walking to a neighborhood park. As we prepared to leave, he asked if he could take a water bottle in case he got thirsty along the way.
“Yes, you may, but here’s the rule: Granma doesn’t like to carry stuff while she walks, so if you take one, you have to carry it yourself,” I said. “In this life, we all must bear our own burdens. Do you know what I mean?”
“No.”
“You’ll learn. Ready to go? Come on.”
So off we went to the park, where I mostly sat on a picnic table under a shady tree while Zeke ran, climbed, jumped, slid, swung, bounced and zoomed around.
Next we walked to a nearby burger joint for dinner. Along the way, Zeke acquired a big stick, with which he whacked low-hanging branches of trees until I reminded him that we must always treat nature gently.
On that note, we paused to examine the feather-fluffed carcass of a dead bird and speculated on what might have caused its demise (the consensus was that it had been attacked by a wolf) and we picked up a few pinecones.
True to his word, Zeke carried his water bottle without complaint. Nevertheless, the kids’ meal at this place included a soft drink, so he settled down with his burger, fries and two drinks.
By the way, did you know that if you pick all the sesame seeds off your bun and eat them at the same time, they still don’t have much taste?
“Watch this, Granma,” Zeke said. I watched obediently as he took a big drink from his water bottle and then, holding the liquid in his mouth, spit it through the straw into his soft drink.
“I’m mixing my drinks up,” he announced proudly.
He did that a few more times and then, as much to take my mind off the contents of his cup as anything else, I said, “How does it work that you can suck liquids up in a straw but then when you stop sucking, it goes back down?”
Turns out Zeke was already aware of gravity, so now we added a lesson about suction.
“Suction up, gravity down,” I said, demonstrating with my own straw, tracing the progress of my soft drink as it traveled up and down.
“Science is all around us,” I said as we walked back to my house. “In fact, I have a surprise for you. I think you’ll really like this.”
I buy weird stuff like this for just such occasions, so now I pulled out a collection of magnets in a variety of shapes and sizes.
“See how they snap together,” I said. “But now watch.”
I turned one of the magnets over and invited Zeke to try to attach his magnet to mine. He blinked in surprise at the invisible force that kept them from connecting.
“Sometimes magnets pull together and sometimes they push apart,” I explained. I’m sure there are some additional scientific details that other, smarter, people might know, but this was good enough for Zeke and me at the moment.
Next it was time for bingo. I won the first game and Zeke won the second game. Maybe I’m supposed to let my grandkids win every game we play, but then when would I have the opportunity to talk about being a good sport?
We played outside for a little while — note to self: Always keep a couple of playground balls on hand — and we talked about everything going on in Zeke’s life right now. He is currently the dojo champion of his classroom and has earned the right to wear a gold belt. He dips his apple slices in peanut butter. He has been to Disney World and I have not. My TV does not get the same shows that his does. My TV is boring.
The birthday dinner ran later than expected so it was past my bedtime and probably Zeke’s too by the time his parents came to pick him up. I waved from my front door as they drove away, then took a few minutes to put the games and toys away.
As I put the magnets back in their package, it occurred to me that sometimes my grandkids and I are apart … but we are always together at heart. | https://www.messenger-inquirer.com/news/special-time-with-grandson-includes-science-sesame-seeds-and-sportsmanship/article_d7a7cf3b-4361-570a-8812-d365bb73e757.html | 2022-05-14T06:36:17Z | https://www.messenger-inquirer.com/news/special-time-with-grandson-includes-science-sesame-seeds-and-sportsmanship/article_d7a7cf3b-4361-570a-8812-d365bb73e757.html | false | 1 |
Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma lavished praise on batter Tilak Varma for his unbeaten knock which helped his team in registering a win against Chennai Super Kings.
The crucial partnership between Tilak Varma and Hrithik Shokeen and a quick unbeaten 16 by Tim David helped Mumbai Indians register a third win against Chennai Super Kings here at Wankhede Stadium on Thursday
"Looking at how the pitch was playing and to lose wickets upfront, there were tense moments in the middle. It was just about keeping calm and getting the job done. After losing those wickets at the start, we were a little calm and got the job done in the end. We have played a lot of cricket here. On so many occasions, we`ve had pitches like this. It's nice to get bowlers into the game as well at times. It`s been batting-friendly pitches all over, it was good to see bounce and swing from both sides which was good to watch. We are keeping one eye (on the future)," said Rohit Sharma in a post-match presentation.

"He (Tilak) has been brilliant, playing for the first year, having such a calm head is never easy. I feel he's going to be an all-format player for India pretty soon. He's got the technique and temperament. A lot of things are looking bright for him. And there's hunger as well," he added.
For CSK, Dhoni (36*) was left-hanging as the lone warrior for his side, as a brutal pace attack by Mumbai Indians fast bowlers skittled out the Men in Yellow for 97. Daniel Sams was the pick of the bowlers for MI, with 3/16 in their four overs. Meredith (2/28) and Kartikeya (2/22) also bowled well. Bumrah and Ramandeep Singh got a wicket each. With this win, MI is currently at the bottom of the points table with six-point. CSK is at ninth position with 8 points.

The Mars Curiosity rover sent by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) acts as eyes on our neighbouring red planet, and recently this eye caught something very unusual. Discourses regarding life on Mars have been in the mill for quite a while now. While water used to be our only evidence for a possible existence of life on Mars, people were left dumbfounded to see a doorway on it. The grainy, black & white pictures that surfaced a few days ago were captured by the Curiosity rover and show a door-like structure cut into a rock face.
Take a look:

While netizens were quick to assume that the door was a portal to a secret base being managed by extra-terrestrial beings, the science fraternity took it with a pinch of salt and burst these bubbles of conspiracy.
Discussion erupted regarding the origins of this “doorway” on the red planet. But the explanation that stuck with logic the longest was that it was just a rock formation due to natural factors. “This is a very curious image. But in short, it looks like natural erosion to me,” said geologist Neil Hodgkins, in an interview with Live Science.
Researchers and scholars noticed that the height of the door, if it was one, was just 3 feet in height. This suggests that even if this actually was a door, the beings using it were awfully small. Anyhow, the experts resorted to giving the credit of this peculiar sighting to natural erosions.
After the dust settled, many users analysed the “door” from other angles, and it does look less mysterious. Have a look:

The Mars Curiosity rover is currently hovering around Mountain sharp, a mountain that has an elevation of 18,000 feet from the floor of Gale Crater. It is the same crater where the rover landed almost 10 years ago.

The Rotterdam Court in the Netherlands ruled Thursday that the government should bring back 12 Daesh/ISIS women and their 29 children from Syria.
The court ruled that the women and children should be brought back to the country within four months if the Dutch Prosecutor's Office does not want to lose the right to prosecute them, according to a report by public broadcaster NOS.

The Netherlands wants to prosecute women who have gone to Syria to join the terrorist group.
The decision, which was leaked to the media, was made in a closed session and later confirmed by the court spokesperson speaking to NOS, according to the report.
It was also reported that the court in previous cases had never decided to bring such a large group of suspected Daesh/ISIS members back to the country in such a period.
In previous cases, a six-month period was given by the court to bring Daesh/ISIS women back to the Netherlands, while a decision on the four-month period was made for the first time.
Earlier this year, it was announced that the Dutch government brought back five women and 11 children who were suspected of being members of the terrorist organization or planning a terrorist attack from a camp in northern Syria.
It was reported that the government, which is not in favor of bringing back Daesh/ISIS women, decided on doing so to avoid losing the investigation right.
The Dutch Prosecutor's Office demanded an eight-year prison sentence for being a member of a terrorist organization for a woman who was brought back to the country on Wednesday. | https://www.albawaba.com/news/rotterdam-court-allows-return-12-isis-women-29-kids-1476703 | 2022-05-14T06:53:03Z | https://www.albawaba.com/news/rotterdam-court-allows-return-12-isis-women-29-kids-1476703 | false | 1 |
Kitsch costumes, frenzied fans and a cultural contest that has been drawing viewers from around the world for 66 years, the Eurovision Song Contest has become a grand celebration of music, mayhem, wild performances and everything in between.
As this year’s grand finale takes place on May 14, here’s a everything to know about Eurovision, the hot contenders of 2022 and how to watch it in the UAE.
What is it all about?
What once began by the European Broadcasting Union in 1956 with just seven countries, today, Eurovision has become a powerhouse, drawing viewers from across the world.
Every year, the previous year’s winning country gets to play host with Italy having won the honour of stage 2022’s main event, with Turin’s Pala Olimpico arena staging the final performances under the theme: The Sound of Beauty.
Starting out with 40 participants in its 66th edition of the contest, that number was whittled down to 20 best songs across two semi-finals that took place on May 10 and 12 courtesy of audience voting. These final 20 have the honour to perform at the grand finale, along with the Big Five (Germany, Spain, France, Italy and the UK).
How does the voting take place?
Votes are cast by music industry professionals and the public from each country - and out of fairness, nobody can vote for their own nation.
Blocs of nations have in the past often voted together, from the francophone countries France, Belgium, Switzerland and Luxembourg, to the Nordic and more recent central or eastern European blocs.
Almost 4,400 Eurovision fans affiliated to OGAE (An international organisation which consists of a network of 42 Eurovision Song Contest fan clubs across Europe and beyond) have already cast their ballots for their favourite songs in Turin - and Ukraine came in 11th, with repeat winner Sweden on top, followed by Italy and Spain.
The Ukrainian OGAE fans crowned Poland — a country that has taken in millions of Ukrainian refugees since the war began — followed by Spain, France, Norway and Sweden.
Who is hosting this year’s event?
The Eurovision Song Contest will be hosted by three presenters: Laura Pausini, Alessandro Cattelan and Mika. Yes, the very same singer who had us all on our feet dancing to ‘Grace Kelly’.
Pausini is, right now, possibly the most highly regarded Italian recording artist in the world. In 2021 alone she won four Latin Grammys, a Grammy Award, a Golden Globe, and received a historic Oscars nod (for the first ever song sung entirely in Italian to be nominated) before performing ‘Io sì’ (Seen) at the 93rd Academy Awards.
Cattelan is arguably the most recognised face on Italian TV and is the creator and host of late shows, entertainment evenings and brand new formats. He is probably best known for hosting ‘Total Request Live’, ‘Le Iene’ and ‘The X Factor’ (Italy).
Meanwhile, Lebanese-British singer-songwriter Mika will complete his hosting duties before hitting the road for a North American tour.
Who are the hot favourites to win this year?
Ukraine: As hot favourites to win this year’s contest, Ukraine’s Kalush Orchestra has made it to Turin, despite a war ravaging their country. Competing with their song ‘Stefania’, the group is ready to show the world that its blend of modern rap and classic Ukrainian folk music is a sure shot hit. Enjoying a flood of popular support and tipped by bookmakers to win the cult competition, ‘Stefania’ is almost a lullaby, addressed to a mother. With striking lyrics such as ‘I’ll always find my way home even if all the roads are destroyed’, the song has become “really close to the hearts of many Ukrainians”, frontman rapper Oleh Psiuk told AFP, who along with the band received special government authorisation to attend Eurovision.
Italy: All eyes are on Mahmood and BLANCO as performers from the host country who won hearts with their passionate performance of ‘Brividi’. But Mahmood, who is returning to the contest after a second-place finish at Eurovision in Tel Aviv three years ago, also has the might of the Arab world backing him with this half-Italian, half-Egyptian singer wearing both heritages with price. Looking at the 2022 event as a fresh start, Mahmood is gunning to win. “I’m super-happy to be here again. It’s a great possibility to bring my story to a big stage. In 2019, I was just telling my own story of when I was a kid. With ‘Brividi’, it’s another story. You can say different things in a different way. This is a completely new experience singing with him [BLANCO], and I learn something from him every time we sing.” The romantic ballad ‘Brividi’ is sure to move the hardest heart.
UK: Having first found fame on TikTok covering hits during the lockdown, the UK’s Sam Ryder is in the number three spot as the artist likely to win the contest this year. The 32-year-old, from near Maldon in Essex, will represent the UK with his uplifting pop song ‘Space Man’. Speaking to the BBC ahead of the grand finale, Ryder said: “I’m just excited and grateful to have the [Eurovision] opportunity. I’ve got to be real, I didn’t have a clue it would be in my stars. ‘Space Man’ was written a year and a half ago, I never intended for it to be a Eurovision song.” He further added: “My personal goal for this is to sing with the same intention that I always sing with, and then come away with the joy that it has given me.” Awww.
Are there any other acts of note?
Glad you asked. Norway’s Subwoolfer, who perform their upbeat ‘Give That Wolf a Banana’ wearing cartoonish yellow wolf masks complete with white teeth, already has garnered a cult following.
Are there any more surprises?
Not really a surprise, but last year’s winners, Italy’s leather-clad glam band Maneskin, will perform at the finale with a new single, ‘Supermodel’. The band, comprising vocalist Damiano David, bassist Victoria De Angelis, guitarist Thomas Raggi, and drummer Ethan Torchio, first rose to prominence after finishing in second place in the 11th season of the Italian talent show ‘The X Factor’ in 2017.
Their international breakthrough came when the foursome won Sanremo in their native Italy in 2021, going on to represent their country at the Eurovision Song Contest that May with the song ‘Zitti E Buoni’.
Since then, Maneskin have enjoyed chart success all over the world with ‘I Wanna Be Your Slave’ and ‘Beggin’’, with the former reaching a peak of number 5 in the UK, and the latter climbing as high as number 13 in the US.

The most iconic Eurovision song of all time…
ABBA skyrocketed into the spotlight in 1974, becoming the greatest success story to come out of Eurovision with the now-classic pop anthem, ‘Waterloo’. ABBA went on to become one of the best-selling bands in music history, selling 150 million records worldwide. | https://gulfnews.com/entertainment/tv/eurovision-2022-everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-song-contest-and-how-to-watch-it-in-the-uae-1.87810747 | 2022-05-14T06:53:22Z | https://gulfnews.com/entertainment/tv/eurovision-2022-everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-song-contest-and-how-to-watch-it-in-the-uae-1.87810747 | false | 1 |
Polish diplomat hears Russia's protest to Warsaw incident
WARSAW, Poland — (AP) — Poland's ambassador in Moscow was summoned to Russia's Foreign Ministry on Wednesday, two days after Russia's ambassador to Poland was splattered with red paint thrown at him by protesters opposed to the war in Ukraine.
Polish Ambassador Krzysztof Krajewski said Russian officials expressed words of protest about the incident on Monday at a cemetery in Warsaw.
Krajewski said his response was to repeat the words of Poland's foreign minister who called the incident “highly deplorable” and something that should never have happened given the protected status of diplomats.
On Monday, Russian Ambassador Sergey Andreev was struck by red paint as he tried to pay his respects to Red Army soldiers who died on Polish territory during World War II. The protest came on Victory Day, the Russian holiday marking the defeat of Nazi Germany. Police helped Andreev to safely leave the scene
Polish government authorities say Andreev had been warned against going to the cemetery for the event because Russia's war in Ukraine has been roundly condemned by Poles and Ukrainians living in Poland.
Polish Foreign Minister Zbigniew Rau hinted that Russia's summoning of Krajewski would meet with reciprocity toward Andreev.
Later Wednesday, Poland's Foreign Ministry said that a plaque with the national emblem at the entrance to Poland's Embassy in Moscow has been doused in red paint.
Traditionally reserved, bilateral relations have been very tense since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which borders Poland. The Polish government has been urging for tough international sanctions, including a ban on Russian energy sources.

NCR daily minimum wage up by P33 — DOLE
MANILA, Philippines — Workers in Metro Manila will be receiving an additional P33 to their current daily pay after the capital's Regional Tripartite Wages and Productivity Board granted the minimum wage hike this week, the Labor department said on Saturday.
This brings up the minimum wage rate to P570 and P533 for workers in the non-agriculture and agriculture sectors, respectively.
The regional wage board in the National Capital Region (NCR) issued Wage Order No. NCR-23 on Friday, which allowed for the wage increase.
In a statement on its website, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) said the increase considered the rising prices of basic goods, commodities and fuel products.
"It is expected to protect around one million minimum wage earners in private establishments in the region from undue low pay," DOLE said, referring to the NCR wage board's move.
This comes around four years after DOLE last announced a wage hike of P25 to the current pay of workers in the capital.
Wage hike in Western Visayas
Workers based in Western Visayas can also expect to get an additional increase of P55 or P110, depending on the industry they belong to and the number of workers in a company, acccording to DOLE, citing Wage Order No. RBVI-26 filed by the wage board in Region 6.
The minimum pay for those working in a company that employs 10 people or less, and those in a firm which employs over 10 workers is P450 and P420, respectively.
DOLE explained that the move is meant to protect over 214,800 minimum wage earners across the region from receiving low pay.
It also said the wage board made such a move due to the rising prices of goods.
Domestic workers based in the region can also expect an increase of P500 in their salaries, bringing up their monthly minimum wage rate to P4,500, according to another wage order.
The last wage increase for workers based in Western Visayas took effect in 2019.
DOLE said that the new wage orders will be submitted for review, and will take effect 15 days after publication in a newspaper of general circulation.

The Senate yesterday received the nomination of Senator Danjuma La’ah (Kaduna South) as the new Deputy Minority Whip of the Senate from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
La’ah’s nomination was contained in a letter addressed to the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, and read at the start of plenary.
The letter was signed by the National Secretary of the PDP, Senator Samuel Anyawu.
Anyawu explained in the letter that the nomination of Senator La’ah was against the backdrop of the recent defection of the former Minority Whip, Senator Ibrahim Abdullahi Danbaba (Sokoto South), to the majority, the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The letter read, “We wish to affirm the nomination of Senator Danjuma La’ah (Kaduna South) by the PDP Senate Caucus, to fill the vacant seat of the Senate Minority Whip.
“The nomination of Senator Danjuma La’ah follows after the defection of Senator Ibrhaim Danbaba (Sokoto South), the former PDP Deputy Whip to APC.
“Please, kindly accord Senator Danjuma La’ah all necessary cooperation and do also accept the assurance of my esteemed regards.”
Senator George Thompson Sekibo (PDP, Rivers East), while coming under Order 1(b) lamented the defection of PDP Senators who occupy the Deputy Whip position.
Two Senators – Senators Emmnuel Bwacha and Ibrahim Danbaba – both of the opposition party and La’ah’s predecessors, resigned their membership of the People’s Democratic Party and defected to the APC.
Ruling on Sekibo’s point of order, the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, ruled him out of order, saying his observation was not in line with the provisions of Order 1(b) of the Senate Standing Orders, 2022 as amended.
He, however, urged the new Deputy Minority Whip to perform his functions to bring about stability and productivity to the Senate. | https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2022/05/12/pdp-nominates-danjuma-laah-as-new-deputy-minority-whip/ | 2022-05-14T07:32:23Z | https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2022/05/12/pdp-nominates-danjuma-laah-as-new-deputy-minority-whip/ | true | 7 |

PITTSBURGH — The Rangers have relied on goalie Igor Shesterkin all season long. Friday night, he even turned in an assist at a crucial moment of their 5-3 Game 6 victory over the Penguins.
With the Rangers on a power play in the second period, Shesterkin skated without hesitation all the way to the bottom of the right faceoff circle to meet the Penguins’ clear of the puck, with the score tied 2-2.
Shesterkin launched the puck up the ice while the Penguins made a change. The puck hit Mika Zibanejad square on the tape of his stick. Zibanejad put the puck on net and Chris Kreider cleaned up the loose rebound to give the Rangers their first lead of the night en route to the victory that teed up a winner-take-all Game 7 on Sunday night at Madison Square Garden.
“I practice,” Shesterkin said, without the help of a translator, of his secondary assist on Kreider’s first of two goals on the night.
Shesterkin made 31 saves in his first win on the road in this first-round Stanley Cup playoff series against Pittsburgh, where the crowd has relentlessly taunted the Rangers’ star goalie in all three games at PPG Paints Arena. The jeers began even before the national anthem on Friday night, and continued periodically throughout the game, as they have all series long.
The 26-year-old, who is getting his first taste of real playoff hockey after one appearance in the 2020 bubble playoffs in front of an empty arena, admitted that it has been difficult to play on the road this postseason.
“It’s very difficult,” he said. “I try to go to my mind. I try to keep focus.”
Rangers director of goaltending Benoit Allaire gave him a tip, Shesterkin said, but he opted not to share it.
“When the game is over, you just try to forget about the game,” Shesterkin said. “Doesn’t matter if you win or lose. You need to win four in this series. I [was] pulled out twice, doesn’t matter. Coach believes in me. I would like to say thanks. I just try to find my game.”
The Rangers fell into a 2-0 hole for the second time in as many games. Asked what’s going through his mind in that moment, Shesterkin said, bluntly, that nothing changes for him.
“I know we need to go back to New York for Game 7,” he said. “And I just tried to focus on the puck all the time.”
Tyler Motte played for the first time since April 7, when the trade-deadline acquisition suffered what the Rangers described as a “significant” upper-body injury against, coincidentally, the Penguins. In the third period of an eventual 4-1 Rangers win that night, Pittsburgh winger Anthony Angello landed a high hit on Motte and knocked him out for the final 15 games of the regular season.
Angello, who played in four games for the Penguins this season, hasn’t played in this first-round Stanley Cup series.
Motte recorded one shot on goal and one hit over 9:32 of ice time in Game 6, which included 2:11 while the Rangers were shorthanded.
Defenseman Patrik Nemeth was a healthy scratch for the first time in this series. | https://nypost.com/2022/05/14/igor-shesterkin-records-assist-in-rangers-game-6-victory/ | 2022-05-14T07:40:25Z | https://nypost.com/2022/05/14/igor-shesterkin-records-assist-in-rangers-game-6-victory/ | false | 2 |

Fire crews worked quickly to extinguish a house fire they believe was deliberately lit near Cessnock.
Fire and Rescue NSW crews from Cessnock and Kearsley were called to Caledonia Street in Kearsley at about 4:15am after reports of an abandoned house on fire.
There was a small fire contained to the front rooms of the house which took fire crews half an hour to get on top of.
Firefighters had the blaze contained, out and then mopped up two hours later.
Fire crews are treating the fire as suspicious, local police will now get involved in the investigation.

Victoria records 22 Covid-19 deaths
Victoria has recorded 22 deaths, with half reported in the past two days.
Victoria recorded a spike in Covid-19 deaths with 22 recorded by the health department.
Half of the 22 new deaths confirmed on Saturday died in the past two days, the Department of Health confirmed.
Of the deaths, people were aged from their 50s to 90s.
The total of deaths in Victoria since the start of the pandemic comes to 3,123, according to the department.
Wastewater detections uncovered two Omicron subvariants, including 15 for BA. 4 and BA. 5 strains.
“Evidence suggests these Omicron sub-lineages are more transmissible than Omicron BA. 2 but do not cause more severe disease,” the Health Department said in a statement on Saturday.
There are 76,385 active cases in the state.
Victoria relaxed restrictions in February allowing masks to be off, with people allowed to return to offices and large gatherings.

Making a pitch for "one country, one language", Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on Saturday said Hindi is spoken across India and has acceptability, and added that Union minister Amit Shah should accept the challenge that there should be one language in all the states.
His statement comes over a month after Shah said that Hindi should be accepted as an alternative to English and not to local languages, a statement that was vociferously opposed by several prominent political leaders in southern states, who said foisting Hindi on people was not acceptable, and also called it a part of an agenda to weaken the regional languages.
Raut made the remark here while talking to media persons here. The comment was in response to a question about Tamil Nadu Education Minister K Ponmudy a day earlier decrying any attempts of alleged imposition of Hindi and questioning claims that learning the language would fetch jobs.
Taking a dig at those who insist jobs will be available for those who learn Hindi, the Tamil Nadu minister had also asked who are selling 'pani puri' in Coimbatore now, an obvious reference to the predominantly Hindi-speaking vendors involved in the trade.
Mumbai - where civic body polls are likely to be held later this year - has a sizeable number of people from northern belt of the country.
Asked about the Tamil Nadu minister's remark, Raut said his party has always respected Hindi.
"Whenever I get an opportunity in the House, I speak in Hindi. Because the country should listen what I want to say, it is a language of the country. Hindi is the only language which has acceptability and is spoken in the entire country," he said.
To drive home his point, the Shiv Sena leader also said that the Hindi film industry is influential in the country and the world.
So, no language should be insulted, he added.
"Union Home Minister Amit Shah should accept this challenge that there should be one language in all states. One country, one Constitution, one nishan (emblem/symbol) and one language should be there," Raut said.
The chief spokesperson of the Sena further said Maharashtra Chief Minister and Shiv Sena president Uddhav Thackeray's rally, scheduled to be held later in the day, will be "historic and revolutionary".
He added the entire country is "excited" to know what stand Thackeray will take during the public rally, first of the party in the last two-and-half years.
"Some people want to vitiate the atmosphere in Maharashtra, want to defame the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government and want to destabilise the state (government). Shiv Sena chief Uddhav ji Thackeray will give a befitting reply to all this," he added.
Answering a question, Raut also said that Shiv Sena founder Bal Thackeray was, is and will remain the only 'Hinduhridaysamrat' (emperor of Hindu hearts).
To another question relating to the Congress's party brainstorming session in Rajasthan's Udaipur, Raut said the Grand Old Party should lift itself. "Only then the country can expect a change," he added.
His statement comes over a month after Shah said that Hindi should be accepted as an alternative to English and not to local languages, a statement that was vociferously opposed by several prominent political leaders in southern states, who said foisting Hindi on people was not acceptable, and also called it a part of an agenda to weaken the regional languages.

'Hindi speakers sell 'Pani-Puri' in Coimbatore': Tamil Nadu education minister K Ponmudy mocks Hindi
Tamil Nadu Education Minister K Ponmudy mocked Hindi language and Hindi speakers by saying that "Hindi speakers sell pani puris in Coimbatore". It has added fuel to the ongoing language debate in the country.
Mumbai - where civic body polls are likely to be held later this year - has a sizeable number of people from northern belt of the country.

To drive home his point, the Shiv Sena leader also said that the Hindi film industry is influential in the country and the world.
So, no language should be insulted, he added.
"Union Home Minister Amit Shah should accept this challenge that there should be one language in all states. One country, one Constitution, one nishan (emblem/symbol) and one language should be there," Raut said.
The chief spokesperson of the Sena further said Maharashtra Chief Minister and Shiv Sena president Uddhav Thackeray's rally, scheduled to be held later in the day, will be "historic and revolutionary".
He added the entire country is "excited" to know what stand Thackeray will take during the public rally, first of the party in the last two-and-half years.
"Some people want to vitiate the atmosphere in Maharashtra, want to defame the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government and want to destabilise the state (government). Shiv Sena chief Uddhav ji Thackeray will give a befitting reply to all this," he added.
Answering a question, Raut also said that Shiv Sena founder Bal Thackeray was, is and will remain the only 'Hinduhridaysamrat' (emperor of Hindu hearts).
To another question relating to the Congress's party brainstorming session in Rajasthan's Udaipur, Raut said the Grand Old Party should lift itself. "Only then the country can expect a change," he added.

The Supreme Court Friday directed AIIMS to adopt roster-based reservations in all its institutes as followed by Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (JIPMER) Pondicherry. A bench headed by Justice L Nageswara Rao clarified that this would apply for this year and granted liberty to AIIMS to approach it in case of delay.

"We direct that the roster point-based reservation for preferential candidates as followed by JIPMER be implemented in all the AIIMS. However, the roster points need not be similar to that of JIPMER,” the bench also comprising Justice A S Bopanna said. Advocate Dushyant Parashar appeared for AIIMS in the case.
The apex court had earlier sought a response from the Centre and AIIMS on a plea seeking defined criteria for arriving at a seat matrix for the institutional preference candidates in the Institute of National Importance Combined Entrance Test. The top court had issued notice to the Ministry of Health, AIIMS, and others on a plea filed by a students' association.
It was hearing a plea filed by the Students Association AIIMS Bhopal and others which had also sought to provide for roster-wise/discipline-wise seat allocation for institutional preference candidates.

De Jong would be 'great signing' for Manchester United - Ferdinand
Frenkie de Jong would be a "great signing" for Manchester United if the Premier League club are able to pull off a successful pursuit of the Barcelona star, according to former player Rio Ferdinand.
The Netherlands international looks set to be the subject of a bid from the Red Devils at the close of the season, as new boss Erik ten Hag looks to bring a countryman onboard at Old Trafford as part of his major revamp.
Now ex-England star Ferdinand, one of United's most acclaimed stars of the Premier League era, has weighed in on just what his capture could bring to the club if they bring him from Camp Nou to Manchester.

What has Ferdinand said about Man Utd signing De Jong?
"I've always thought he was a top player," Ferdinand spoke on his FIVE programme on YouTube. "They're saying Frenkie de Jong could be the first player to come in under Erik ten Hag and I would be saying: 'Yes, great signing.'
"He's not huge in terms of frame but he is quick with the ball, really good dribbler, can get out of tight situations, makes good decisions, good passer, his balance and dribbling ability are really good.
"[United] are a team who are looking for players who can control the ball and control the game and get the team functioning in terms of balance and possession. I think he would be a good addition."
Would Barcelona be willing to sell De Jong?
Ahead of another summer transfer window that will likely see the Blaugrana hunting for cut-price purchases, the temptation of a big-money sale for a star to boost their coffers may be too tough to turn down.
GOAL understands Barca are open to accepting a €60 million (£51m/$63m) bid for De Jong if United are to come in for his services.
Other reports suggest, however, that the player is settled in La Liga, leaving the issue of personal terms as a major stumbling block for United to convince him to make the move. | https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/de-jong-would-be-great-signing-for-manchester-united/blt2facb57694865051 | 2022-05-14T08:37:18Z | https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/de-jong-would-be-great-signing-for-manchester-united/blt2facb57694865051 | false | 10 |
To the editor -- You have expressed a need for support for local newspapers. Here is an issue critical to public safety for many of eastern Washington and Yakima County.
This is trickle-down of "defund" the police and has greatly hampered law enforcement and first responders. At a recent community meeting with many public safety staff, it was pointed out that:
Letting criminals out of jail is not right and they will reoffend.
They cannot do their jobs as rules of engagement favor the criminals, especially drug dealers, who will openly defy law enforcement as they know the rules.
What can we do?
Contact your state legislators and demand that the rules of engagement be rescinded -- or at least allow local law enforcement to develop workable programs.
Take a moment to thank these law enforcement officers for their good work.
Sponsor local community meetings to understand the issue.

WINNSBORO – Fairfield County mattress manufacturer, MLILY, has donated mattresses to Fairfield County’s Sheriff’s Department, EMS, and Emergency Management.
Representatives from MLILY presented the mattresses to the public safety units in the MLILY showroom located at 1 Mlily Way in Winnsboro on Monday.
“Fairfield County is thrilled to announce that MLILY has made this generous donation to our community. Not only is MLILY an active and contributing corporate citizen, they are a major part of our local economy,” said Zechariah Willoughby, Project Manager in Fairfield County Economic Development. “We thank them for their contribution and continued commitment.”
“I want to thank the folks from MLILY. We didn’t ask for this, you came to us and asked, “How can we help?” This will be a big benefit to many of the folks that our public safety teams assist and for employees who sleep at county public safety facilities during 48 hour shifts,” Davenport said. “MLILY provides hundreds of jobs to Fairfield County citizens and much needed tax revenue. And we know you’re looking to hire about 50 or so more employees. We’ll help you get the word out. Fairfield County stands ready to support MLILY’s growth and success for years to come. We just want to thank you for coming to Fairfield County.”
Both Sheriff Will Montgomery and EMS Director Mike Tanner thanked MLILY for the mattress donation.
Through an interpreter, Chen Lin, MLILY’s general manager commented, “As MLILY grows here we want to give back to the Fairfield County community. One way we can provide our support to you is by donating these mattresses.” | https://www.blythewoodonline.com/2022/05/mlily-gives-31-mattresses-to-fcsd-ems/ | 2022-05-14T08:45:35Z | https://www.blythewoodonline.com/2022/05/mlily-gives-31-mattresses-to-fcsd-ems/ | true | 1 |
Who is Laurence Fox and what has he said about Covid?
VACCINE sceptic and anti-lockdown campaigner Lawrence Fox has confirmed he tested positive for coronavirus.
On Sunday, January 30, 2022, the actor tweeted a picture of a positive lateral flow test but suggested he did not need a vaccine as he has an "immune system".
Who is Laurence Fox and what is he known for?
Laurence Paul Fox, 42, was born ON May 26, 1978, and is an English actor, singer-songwriter and guitarist.
He is best known for his leading role as DS James Hathaway in ITV's Lewis from 2006 to 2015.
Laurence has also starred in many films including Gosford Park (2005), Becoming Jane (2007), and Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007), as well as multiple theatre productions.
He released his debut album, Holding Patterns, in February 2016.
In 2021, Laurence ran for the post of Mayor of London, after criticising the current mayor, Sadiq Khan, for being too soft when tackling crime in the capital.
He said: "The Mayor has failed the basic test of keeping London safe.
"In the name of his political correctness, children are dying on our streets, hospitals are filling up with the stabbed and shot.
"I have promised mothers that if their sons are foolish enough to be caught with a knife or a gun, they will regret it. If they are arrested, they will have a simple choice offered to them at the police station.
"As Mayor, I will bring the full might of the law to send them to jail, or I will support them back into the community to make the most of their lives."
MORE ON LAURENCE
What has he said about Covid and vaccinations?
On January 26, 2020, Fox posted a controversial picture on Instagram and Twitter of him wearing a T-shirt saying: "No vaccine needed. I have an immune system."
But just four days later, he confirmed on Twitter he had Covid-19 by posting a picture of his positive lateral flow.
In a video, he announced he will be treating it with hot toddies and over the counter medication, adding he was "so happy" to be "joining the natural immunity club".
Among Ibuprofen and Panadol he listed to be using to treat the virus, Fox said he was taking Ivermectin, an anti-parasitic medicine used to treat humans and animals for worms.
In September 2021, it was reported that three of the Strictly Come Dancing stars refused to get vaccinated.
Many critics requested for them to be dropped from the series.
Laurence was then slammed for making a bizarre comparison between those who had not received the Covid vaccine to those with HIV.
Responding to a tweet that read: "2 professional dancers from @BBCStrictly refuse to have @Covid vaccine. Sack them and replace them with jabbed dancers," the controversial actor asked: "Would you apply the same rules to HIV positive dancers?"
His post sparked outrage causing the Sexual Health Terrence Higgins Trust to respond saying: "This is not comparable — HIV is not passed on by dancing.
"Nor is it passed on by spitting, sneezing or coughing, kissing or general social contact. People on effective treatment #CantPassItOn and can live long and healthy lives."
A Strictly spokesperson previously said of the reports: "We do not comment on speculation of somebody’s Covid vaccination status."
What is Laurence Fox's political party?
Laurence Fox launched a new political party named The Reclaim Party.
A Westminster source called the new party “a Ukip for culture” which the Conservative party “should be frightened about”.
His three aims were to defend freedom of speech, reform publicly funded institutions, including the BBC, and to celebrate British history.
When was he married to Billie Piper?
Laurence married pop star turned actress Billie Piper in December 2007.
But it wasn't meant to be as the couple divorced on May 12, 2016.
It was over in just 50 seconds with Billie, 35, citing “unreasonable behaviour”.
The former couple have two children - Winston, nine, and Eugene, six.
It's taken two years since their divorce but the former couple now share custody of their children.
In an interview with the Mail on Sunday on June 17, 2018, Laurence revealed the custody battle nearly "cost him his sanity" and "drained his bank balance".
Who is Laurence's famous family?
Laurence is part of the famous Fox family acting dynasty.
His grandfather is actor and theatrical agent Robin Fox.
His dad is actor James Fox and he has four siblings which include the actor Jack Fox and actress Lydia Fox.
Laurence's uncle is the esteemed entertainer Edward Fox, which means his famous cousins are Emilia and Freddie Fox. | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/2802678/laurence-fox-covid-vaccine-reclaim/ | 2022-05-14T08:45:44Z | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/2802678/laurence-fox-covid-vaccine-reclaim/ | true | 1 |

PHOENIX (AP) — The Arizona Diamondbacks played a ton of one-run games last season and lost most.
This year's team is built to not only survive, but thrive in tight games. They did it again Friday night.
Ketel Marte had three hits and drove in a run, Zach Davies pitched effectively into the sixth inning and the Diamondbacks beat the Chicago Cubs 4-3 for their seventh win in one-run games after finishing 10-31 last season.
“We're prepared mentally, physically and fundamentally to win this type of game,” Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said. “We were able to execute at a high level to win this game.”
Marte struggled to start the season after signing a long-term contract in spring training, but has started to round back into All-Star form the past couple of weeks. He had a pair of doubles off Drew Smyly (1-4) and finished 3 for 4, raising his average to .222.
Davies (2-1) allowed three runs and four hits with six strikeouts in 5 2/3 innings. Ian Kennedy worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the eighth after shortstop Geraldo Perdromo's two-out error and Mark Melancon pitched a perfect ninth for his seventh save in eight chances.
Arizona has won eight of 10 to move three games over .500 after struggling at the start of the season.
Chicago had two hits after taking a 3-0 lead in the third inning and five overall to lose for the seventh time in nine games.
“This team has a great heartbeat,” Lovullo said. “They don't panic. They stay with the process, stay with their prep and get very focused. We answered back.”
Davies, who went 6-12 for the Cubs last season, had not allowed a earned run in 14 1/3 innings before facing his old team.
The Cubs ended the right-hander's streak in the third inning on Ildemaro Vargas' two-run triple and Rafael Ortega's sacrifice fly. Davies was solid in every other inning, leaving with a 4-3 lead with two outs in the sixth inning.
“I was kind off today,” Davies said. “I felt like there were at-bats where I got ahead and wasn't able to put guys away or get behind and have to battle those. But overall, I was happy to get over that inning and be able to pitch into the sixth inning.”
Smyly had been good on the road this season, his ERA (1.26) more than four runs lower than at Wrigley Field.
The left-hander wasn’t quite as sharp at Chase Field.
Marte and Pavin Smith hit RBI doubles off Smyly in the third inning and Christian Walker added a run-scoring single. Jose Rojas reached third after walking to lead off the next inning and scored when Smyly let loose a wild pitch to make it 4-0.
Smyly allowed four runs and 10 hits and struck out four in six innings. He has lost lost four straight starts since beating Pittsburgh on April 12.
DAMAGE AVERTED
Things got a little dicey for Kennedy in the eighth after Pedromo mishandled Willson Contreras’ sharp grounder.
Kennedy just missed on a couple of pitches to walk Ian Happ and Patrick Wisdom to load the bases. The right-hander escaped the jam when he jammed Alfonso Rivas to induce a weak pop out to short center field.
“You can't make mistakes in the middle of the zone and Ian is smart enough to know that,” Lovullo said. “He was making quality pitches, they just weren't giving in. The inning got a little extended, but when he had to make pitches, he did.”
TRAINER’S ROOM
Cubs: LHP Justin Steele threw a bullpen without any trouble after leaving the fifth inning of Sunday's start against the Dodgers with left thumb soreness. ... RHP Alec Mills (strained lower back) is scheduled for a bullpen session on Saturday.
Diamondbacks: SS Nick Ahmed was out of the lineup to rest his his right shoulder, an injury that kept him out the first two weeks of the season. He struck out as a pinch hitter in the eighth inning.
UP NEXT
Diamondbacks RHP Zac Gallen (2-0, 0.95) has the lowest ERA by a starting pitcher his first five starts in club history heading into Saturday's game against Cubs RHP Kyle Hendricks.

Even though some words aren’t defined as racial epithets per se, you can still find yourself in serious trouble for using them in the wrong context or if said by the wrong person. Calling someone “ghetto” can be troubling regardless of the mouth it’s coming out of, particularly when a white person uses it about a person of color.
A Michigan councilwoman became the latest example during a recent committee meeting after other members described her actions as unprofessional and offensive for referring to a Black colleague as “ghetto” under her breath. According to MLive, Flint’s Ninth Ward Councilwoman Eva Worthing made the comment last week after allegedly feeling “threatened” by comments made by Fifth Ward Councilwoman Jerri Winfrey-Carter.
For reference, Worthing is white and Winfrey-Carter is Black. The outlet reported that Sixth Ward Councilwoman Tonya Burns initially caught wind of the comment and decided to repeat it, adding, “To say ghetto and to say it so easily and to laugh about it, that disturbs me.” Burns elaborated by commenting further, “That’s just wrong … You teach children, and you’re comfortable saying ‘ghetto’?”
Worthing issued a half-hearted apology in a now-deleted Facebook post, calling it a “knee-jerk reaction.” She also insisted that calling someone ghetto isn’t inherently racist.
‘No one can tell ME how I used that term but me and it is NOT a term that is inherently racist,’ the statement says. ‘I normally do not use language like that in the first place. I am angry at myself … I wish I had handled this better. I am very hard on myself. I’m still upset about it today. However, this one moment does not define me. I will continue to work hard for the residents of my ward.’”
As reported by the Detroit News, Worthing tried to pull the reverse racism card, alleging that she has been called a “nasty white woman” repeatedly and sidestepped her own actions. The outlet quoted Worthing as saying it was just frustration, and she was surprised the word even came out of her mouth.
The initial comment derived from a disagreement in how appointed leader Winfrey-Carter was conducting the meeting. Worthing felt aggravated that her colleague “refused to ask [Flint] city clerk how to properly chair the meeting.”
Other council members told the Detroit Metro Times that this was not a surprising move on Worthing’s part, noting that she and former councilmember Allan Griggs have made derogatory comments in the past. Councilman Eric Mays, who is Black, told the outlet the council might need an agenda item to address matters of race.
Regardless of how you feel in any heated situation, name-calling is never the answer.

A woman’s Facebook posting blasting a “Yoga Barbie” as “Satanic” has gone viral and prompted thousands of comments.
Yasmeen Suri is an author, public speaker, blogger and self-described “renegade Christian” who mainly talks about Jesus, Satan and sin.
Related: People have mixed opinions over the new Queen Elizabeth II Barbie doll
Her posting blasted a “Yoga Barbie” (it has extra joints so can be bent into lots of different yoga positions) as the devil’s work: potentially leading to rebellious, demonic teenagers.
“‘Yoga Barbie’ is at Target on the shelf. Satan always comes as appearing innocent. He will never come with horns and a pitchfork,” Suri says.
“This Barbie has 5 guided meditations. Remember, Yoga IS Hinduism. You cannot separate the poses from the religion. Each pose is designed to invoke a hindu deity in the spirit realm. I have seen children get possessed by demons. This Barbie also teaches you deep breathing (pranayama). Her pet is also involved.
“Satan is after the children. He wants to use them and indoctrinate them for his glory. Then, when he is done, he will destroy them. As your kids grow, they will get rebellious, depressed and many will be suicidal. You won’t understand what’s happening as a parent. God forbids all practices of eastern religion as a Christian. You must remove all toys and clean your children’s room of all demonic attachments. Deuteronomy 18:10-12”
Related: One Million Moms in predictable frenzy over the release of…a doll
The posting has been shared over 18k times and prompted over 13k comments. Most cannot believe it’s not satirical.
“I used to think the only thing crazier than having an imaginary friend is having an imaginary enemy, but this is some next-level stuff,” said one commentator. “Way to raise the bar!!”
“Thank you for promoting this!” said another. “I can’t wait to run to Target and buy myself one.”
“The biggest sin actually is speaking for God like you’re an expert,” another pointed out. “Which you’re not ‘thou shall not take the lord’s name in vain’ isn’t about saying “god damn” when you’re mad, it’s about using the word of god to mislead and lie. Which you’re doing. Absolutely nothing is wrong with yoga. There’s nothing in the Bible that says you cannot stretch and breathe.”
A quick look at Suri’s website and other social media reveals she’s similarly appalled by the popularity of Harry Potter (“Potter books portray the world of sorcery and witchcraft as exciting and attractive”), and unicorns (“occult in nature”).
Although her protestations may seem laughable, let’s not forget she’s not the only person who thinks this way … or that most of those in agreement are probably pretty anti-LGBTQ. Some of those to comment on her Facebook posting agreed with her viewpoint.
Last year, the state of Alabama lifted a decades-long ban on yoga in public schools. However, it maintained a bar on instructors using traditional Sanskrit names for various poses or using terms such as ‘namaste’ to greet others, because… well, that just seemed like a slippery slope toward Hinduism.
If Suri throws a fit over a yoga Barbie, goodness knows what she will make of a new Fisher-Price doll of RuPaul, unveiled yesterday. | https://www.queerty.com/yoga-barbie-blasted-satanic-couldnt-make-stuff-20220512 | 2022-05-14T08:52:05Z | https://www.queerty.com/yoga-barbie-blasted-satanic-couldnt-make-stuff-20220512 | false | 1 |
NCC 'officializing' rogue trails in Gatineau Park
Work underway and NCC to add about 100km to official network by 2024
After years of warning visitors of Gatineau Park to stay on the trail, the National Capital Commission (NCC) has begun converting many so-called rogue hiking and cycling paths into legitimate routes.
Beyond the 200 kilometres of official forest routes maintained by the NCC, park managers estimate there are more than 300 kilometres of extra unofficial trails.
The number of those trails has snowballed in the era of mobile mapping apps like AllTrails, and beginning in 2017, the NCC began to take the "if you can't beat them, join them" approach.
Off-piste misadventures have become common in Gatineau Park in recent years.
Last November one hiker was injured on a steep cliff face and needed to be rescued by firefighters from several of the municipalities that border the park.
Not long after, another visitor ventured off a designated path, became lost and required rescuing.
"It's always complicated, and it's at night," said Chelsea Fire Department Chief Charles Ethier, who pointed out the risk to rescuers.
"There's a chance of falling, so it's always a difficult intervention."
Even if a lost hiker's phone does have reception, merely sending co-ordinates to rescuers may not help if there's no record of the trail the visitor followed into their predicament, said Ethier.
Pierre-Olivier Dorego, outdoor recreation manager for Gatineau Park, admitted that the proliferation of new paths through the forest by users of mapping apps has caused park authorities new headaches.
Still, planners have tried to take a philosophical approach.
"We have to keep in mind that these trails are there for a reason," said Dorego, who added DIY trails often connected residential neighbourhoods to the park, or offered a recreational experience not available elsewhere.
Beginning in 2017, the NCC held public consultations with users about which unofficial trails deserved to be made official.
Hang-gliders, equestrians, snowmobilers, hikers, cyclists and other groups weighed in in a series of public meetings.
In the end, about 100 kilometres of the 330 kilometres of rogue routes were accepted, often with modifications, with the DIY trails evaluated on the basis of their recreational value and environmental impact.
Dorego said some proposed routes had to be immediately ruled out of bounds when they charted a course across sensitive and legally protected habitats for animals like peregrine falcons, western chorus frogs or American butternut.
Others caused unacceptable fragmentation in the range of larger mammals like deer.
But in many other cases, the park has allowed users to take the lead.
"We're hoping that these provide the experiences that people are looking for on the unofficial trails and we will be able to close the unofficial trails that are problematic from a safety and environmental point of view," Dorego said.
Phase 1, completed in 2019, made about 14 kilometres of trails official. It brought trails 41, 42, 43, 66, 67, 68, 76, 77, 79 and 80 in Gatineau and Chelsea into the NCC canon.
Phase 2 added 53B, 58, 59 and 72B, about 17 kilometres in total, in the Wakefield area.
WATCH | Why the NCC is giving official status to some rogue Gatineau Park hiking trails
Volunteers have donated thousands of hours of their time to trim, lop and blaze the paths that get the NCC nod.
Dorego estimates that by summer 2024, 100 kilometres of "crowdsourced" routes will show up on official NCC maps.
It's music to the ears of Patrick Hannan who confessed to riding his mountain bike on "unofficial trails" and frequently running into conflict with hikers who, also are also on out of bounds routes, took issue with him.
"With officializing them, they know it's a shared trail. I get less insults or remarks," he said. | https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/gatineau-park-rogue-trails-official-network-1.6452182?cmp=rss | 2022-05-14T08:52:35Z | https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/gatineau-park-rogue-trails-official-network-1.6452182?cmp=rss | true | 1 |
How about zero? That is how much Wisconsin taxpayers should be handing over to efforts to find fraud in the 2020 election. Instead, Assembly Speaker Robin Vos says he will cut in half, to $5500, the monthly salary to Michael Gableman, a former Supreme Court justice leading this sham investigation. That is because the investigation is on hold as a result of litigation. When will this end? It was supposed to end in October of last year. Vos has continued to grant extensions, but the results remain the same. Gableman’s report floated many conspiracy theories, but found nothing in the way of actual fraud. Taxpayers are already on the hook to the tune of $676,000, a complete waste of money. Even though Gableman’s salary is being trimmed, Vos did throw him a bone, allowing him to avoid paying back $2700 Gableman spent on trips to watch the election audit in Arizona, and to attend a convention in South Dakota put on by the My Pillow guy. The lawsuits that have paused the investigation are due to Gableman’s flouting of the public records law, refusing to release public documents. Those lawsuits will play out as the investigation halts. Which makes us wonder, why should we continue to pay Gableman if he is not expected to work? | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2597682629110/registered-sex-offender-accused-of-old-and-new-sexual-assaults-of-juvenile | 2022-05-14T09:11:44Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2597682629110/registered-sex-offender-accused-of-old-and-new-sexual-assaults-of-juvenile | false | 2 |

Ex-Manchester City star Gael Clichy was struck on stage by a pint of beer thrown from the crowd at a club event, while Sky Sports commentator Martin Tyler was jeered by the supporters present.
The club hosted a celebratory evening to mark a decade since City secured their first-ever Premier League title, doing so in the most dramatic of fashion as Sergio Aguero scored a goal that saw City pry the title away from local rivals Manchester United with 93 minutes and 20 seconds on the clock against Queens Park Rangers.
The event saw some former faces who played big parts in the story of that day arrive and recall their version of events in front of adoring City fans, though things appeared to get out of hand when Clichy was hit by a pint thrown by an overzealous fan.
It was a similar situation when Tyler arrived on stage. The commentator provided the iconic soundtrack for the goal with his memorable 'Aguerooooo!' shriek as the ball hits the net and pandemonium ensues inside the ground, but his reception was lukewarm from the City fans - with some even booing as he took to the stage, as per the Manchester Evening News' coverage of the event.
Many ex-City stars reminisced on the memorable afternoon, with former midfielder Gareth Barry admitting: "Looking around, we could see the tears, feel the emotions. But they stayed with us. The fans played a huge part, they stayed until the end, that's what the players needed."
His sentiments were echoed by both Aguero and ex-right-back Pablo Zabaleta. "For me the best moment in my life," the goal-scorer claimed, while his fellow Argentine said: "The emotions were incredible. One of the greatest moments in my life. Not just football, my whole life."
HAVE YOUR SAY! Was City's first title win the most dramatic in English football history? Comment below
Earlier on in the day, Aguero was the latest City star to be immortalised with a statue outside the East Stand of the Etihad to commemorate the moment.
"Truthfully, it is a very beautiful thing for me, to see myself 10 years ago is very moving," the ex-Atletico Madrid man explained. "In those 10 years, I was able to win a lot of trophies and was able to help the Club become one of the most important in the world.
"I am very grateful to the Club for making this statue in recognition of my football career in Manchester. It is something very special." Zabaleta shed light on how the players celebrated the victory - which saw one notable celebrity guest in attendance. "We went for a big party in town. Everyone was drunk, it was crazy. Liam Gallagher came at the end as well."

NEW ORLEANS, May 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Former Attorney General of Louisiana, Charles C. Foti, Jr., Esq., a partner at the law firm of Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC ("KSF"), informs investors that KSF continues its investigation into 3D Systems Corporation (NYSE: DDD).
On March 1, 2021, the Company disclosed that the filing of its 10-K annual report would be delayed, due primarily to "the presentation of cash flows associated with the divestiture process for its Cimatron and GibbsCam software businesses." On March 5, 2021, when the Form 10-K was finally filed, the Company disclosed internal control problems relating to "non-standard contracts and non-standard contract terms" and "the review of internally prepared reports and analyses utilized in the financial closing process," among other disappointing news.
Thereafter, the Company and certain of its executives were sued in a securities class action lawsuit for failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws, which remains ongoing.
KSF's investigation is focusing on whether 3D's officers and/or directors breached their fiduciary duties to 3D's shareholders or otherwise violated state or federal laws.
If you have information that would assist KSF in its investigation, or have been a long-term holder of 3D shares and would like to discuss your legal rights, you may, without obligation or cost to you, call toll-free at 1-877-515-1850 or email KSF Managing Partner Lewis Kahn (lewis.kahn@ksfcounsel.com), or visit https://www.ksfcounsel.com/cases/nyse-ddd/ to learn more.

Africa, in recent years, has become the new frontier where China and the United States, the world’s two biggest economic superpowers, are competing for influence in a key industry: telecommunications.
This week, Ethiopia celebrated the launch of a 5G network powered by China’s telecom giant Huawei in Addis Ababa.
Just before that, on a visit to the continent last week, U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman visited U.S. mobile company Africell’s offices in Angola, where the firm has amassed some 2 million users since it was launched just over a month ago.
“Today in Luanda, I visited @AfricellAo, an innovative, state-of-the-art U.S. company expanding 5G access in Angola with trusted technology components,” she wrote in a tweet.
Asked in a subsequent press briefing whether the tweet wasn’t a dig at Huawei – which already has a huge digital foothold in Africa but which was sanctioned in the U.S. in 2019 by then-President Donald Trump – Sherman was unequivocal.
“It’s not about throwing shade (being critical) on Huawei. We’ve been very direct. We believe that when countries choose Huawei, they are potentially giving up their sovereignty,” she said. “They are turning over their data to another country. They may find themselves bringing in a surveillance capability they didn’t even know was there.”
Washington has long expressed concern that Beijing is trying to monopolize networks and possibly use them for espionage, while Huawei has repeatedly denied the allegations.
“So, we’ve been very public about our concerns about Huawei, and so we are glad that Africell can provide to the people of Angola a safe, capable tool in their hands to reach out to the world,” Sherman added.
The deputy secretary’s comments raised ire in Beijing, where they were met with a stiff rebuke from Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian.
“Chinese companies including Huawei have conducted mutually beneficial cooperation with many countries in Africa and the world beyond, contributed to the improvement and development of the countries’ communications infrastructure, provided advanced, quality, safe and affordable services for the local people and won great support,” he said on Chinese state media.
“There is not a single case of cyber security accident, surveillance or wiretapping in the course of the cooperation,” he added, going on to allege that the U.S. has long been responsible for such spying activities itself.
Zhao noted that it is up to African governments to decide with whom to cooperate.
In Angola, the company already has a significant presence, with mobile operator Unitel linked to Huawei, which is also building two technological training centers, worth $60 million, in the country in order to develop the digital economy.
And with Huawei widely available in South Africa, only one of the five people VOA spoke to at a local shopping center was even aware of the controversy over the brand.
Cheris Fourie, a sales consultant at a cellphone shop in Cape Town’s Blue Root Mall, said Huawei handsets aren’t that popular anymore, not because of concerns over any nefarious activities by the company, but rather because Google services are no longer on the devices. Google is no longer available because of a U.S. Huawei ban.
David Devillieras, who was sitting at a cafe at the mall using his Samsung phone, told VOA he’d never heard of the possibility Huawei was involved in surveillance. He added that he wouldn’t buy a Huawei phone having heard that.
“I wouldn’t go there at all, not for one second. I wouldn’t buy a Chinese phone,” he said.
One shopper, Steve Elliot-Jones, said he “wouldn’t trust anything that comes out of China,” but thought other countries could also be using mobile networks to spy.
“It wouldn’t surprise me if technology companies including the states or anywhere else for that matter… I wouldn’t say anyone’s actually innocent. I think they’re all probably all up to selling information and making money on the side and denying it if it comes out.”

Russia’s annual inflation jumped to a two-decade high of 17.8 percent in April, fuelled by Western sanctions over Moscow’s military campaign in Ukraine, the statistics agency said on Friday.
Since President Vladimir Putin moved troops into Ukraine on February 24, Russia has been hit with a barrage of international sanctions, including embargoes on key exports, accelerating already high inflation.
Inflation of food prices, a huge concern for Russians on low incomes, has reached 20.5 percent year-on-year, according to Rosstat.
Pasta has gone up by 29.6 percent, butter by 26.1 percent, and fruit and vegetables by 33 percent.
Annual inflation could reach 23 percent this year before slowing down next year and returning to the target of 4 percent in 2024, according to the Central Bank.
“Looking ahead, we expect monthly increases in prices to ease further from May,” Capital Economics said.
Inflation has been speeding up for months due to a number of factors including the post-pandemic recovery and high prices for raw materials. Putin’s decision to send troops to Ukraine has added sanctions and the resulting logistical difficulties as factors.
Putin on Thursday said Western countries were worse hit by sanctions imposed on Moscow over Ukraine than Russia, which he insists has been resilient in the face of “external challenges”. | https://arynews.tv/russia-inflation-hits-20-year-high-in-april/ | 2022-05-14T10:11:29Z | https://arynews.tv/russia-inflation-hits-20-year-high-in-april/ | false | 3 |
NEW DELHI - The transaction was hyperlocal - an online order worth 37 rupees (S$0.66) for hydroponic coriander grown at a farm in Bangalore and delivered to a consumer in the city in less than 30 minutes.
It was this modest and quick order that kicked off the pilot run for a "game-changing" e-commerce initiative on April 29 backed by the Indian government that could create a domestic rival to the likes of biggies such as Amazon and the Walmart-backed Flipkart.

In a recent update regarding covid booster shot, the Indian government has reduced the time period for the booster dose for Indian citizens and students travelling abroad. Travellers bound for an international journey will be eligible to get their third covid prevention shot after three months of getting their second jab.
The decision comes after many countries have made it mandatory for travellers to take a booster shot for entry purposes. Earlier, in India, the time gap between the second and the third dose was a minimum of nine months. The update was announced on Twitter by the Union Health Minister.
Indian citizens & students travelling overseas can now take the precaution dose as required by the guidelines of the destination country.
— Dr Mansukh Mandaviya (@mansukhmandviya) May 12, 2022
This new facility will be available soon on the CoWIN portal.
Travellers will also soon see the change reflected on Co-Win for the ease of booking the slots. A letter to the states and union territories stating the same has been sent. For those seeking the booster shot travel documents such as visa will also not be required. While travel rules across the globe are relaxing, many countries have now made it mandatory for travellers to have a proof of a booster dose too. Many European Union countries have also placed a cut-off at nine months or 270 days, meaning that a traveller bound for those countries should have taken a jab in the last nine months in order to be allowed in the country. | https://www.outlookindia.com/travel/govt-reduces-covid-booster-dosage-gap-for-those-travelling-abroad--news-196703 | 2022-05-14T10:21:39Z | https://www.outlookindia.com/travel/govt-reduces-covid-booster-dosage-gap-for-those-travelling-abroad--news-196703 | true | 1 |
