These 3 Oil Companies Are Gaining From Rising Prices. They Also Have Attractive Dividends.

Some of Europe’s lesser-known integrated oil companies might be worth considering for investors who want to take advantage of this year’s surge in prices.
Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February, most oil companies have seen their valuations increase as crude prices spiked above $100 a barrel for the first time since 2014. Natural-gas prices are also at the highest level in years on concerns that supplies are threatened.

StormTALK! Weather Blog: Alert Day Update 5/26
Published: May. 26, 2022 at 8:23 AM EDT|Updated: 48 minutes ago
Tracking t-storms moving into the area shortly with still a question if another line will form or not later this afternoon. That part is key on any severe risk. If you live along/east of I-65 but weather aware until we can sound the all-clear on this setup. Either way, use caution traveling with the rounds of heavy rain moving into the area.
More t-storms possible tomorrow with pea-size hail but much more on the on/off side of things and not a severe t-storm setup. Just keep the rain gear handy on Friday.
We dry out and warm up for the weekend with our first heat wave of the year kicking in Monday.
Stay safe!

Laverne Cox just hit a major milestone: becoming a Barbie doll. Mattel, which has previously released dolls based on other inspiring women – there’s an Ashley Graham Barbie, a Zendaya Barbie, etc – included Laverne in its Tribute Collection, marking the first time a Barbie doll has been based on a transgender woman.
“It’s been a dream for years to work with Barbie to create my own doll,” Laverne said in a statement. “I can’t wait for fans to find my doll on shelves and have the opportunity to add a Barbie doll modeled after a transgender person to their collection. I hope that people can look at this Barbie and dream big like I have in my career. The space of dreaming and manifesting is such a powerful source and leads you to achieve more than what you originally thought was possible.”
The design of the doll is credited to Carlyle Nuera and features Laverne in a red gown over a sparkly catsuit.
“What excites me most about her being out in the world is that trans young people can see her and maybe get to purchase her and play with her, and know that there’s a Barbie made by Mattel, for the first time, in the likeness of a trans person,” Cox told People. Referencing the recent spate of legislative and cultural attacks on trans and LGBTQIA+ kids, Laverne added, “In this environment where trans kids are being attacked…this can also be a celebration of transness, and also a space for them to dream, understand, and be reminded that trans is beautiful.” | https://www.glamourmagazine.co.uk/article/laverne-cox-barbie | 2022-05-26T13:17:10Z | https://www.glamourmagazine.co.uk/article/laverne-cox-barbie | false | 3 |
Nigeria’s spectacular crises in almost every facet of its national life are inescapable. They cling like your skin. And for your sanity, you must detox from time to time.
I hope this trip to Grenada, through Afghanistan, helps.
Instead of writing about killings of the most bestial variety up and down the country, an economy on life support, insecurity, ASUU strike, men fighting for Allah and those defending them, the politics of 2023 that has left even politicians confused and enthroned delegates as royalty, I’ve decided to comment on a topic in which I recently renewed interest.
In a recent special report, Laura Trevelyan, a BBC anchor and correspondent, visited her ancestors’ former slave plantation in Grenada. In that report, sights and sounds in the Caribbean Island reminded slave owners and the enslaved about the grim legacy of slavery.
By the time Britain abolished African slavery in 1833, the British Slave Compensation Commission paid its 46,000 slave owners a whooping sum of £20million, or 40 per cent of its expenditure in 1834.
“In a family email chain, I learned that the Trevelyans received about £34,000 for the loss of their ‘property’ on Grenada – the equivalent of about £3m in today’s money,” Trevelyan said.
In America, after the abolition of slavery, the government, through the Homestead Act of 1862, created a new asset ownership model for white Americans but denied same to former slaves.
In a book co-authored with Kirsten Mullen, William Darity, a professor of public policy, wrote: “Black families received no assets while large numbers of white families received substantial assets as a starting point for building wealth in the United States.”
A system which compensated a people who had already profited from a brutal practice but left the actual victims of the cruelty impoverished, genetically sick, eternally oppressed and their region glaringly underdeveloped can only fuel the feeling of inequality and deprivation Black people suffer in many Western countries.
For this reason, Caribbean countries are calling for reparations for the atrocities of the past. Thus, they have all set up National Commission on Reparations for Slavery.
In a speech in London in 1992, late MKO Abiola told his audience, that the demand for reparation was based on a tripod of moral, historical and legal arguments.
As a group, the idea of reparations for slavery is being championed by the Caribbean Community or CARICOM, a 20-member economic, cultural and political bloc.
The idea of reparations for slavery is not new. Since the end of the American Civil War, there have been calls for reparations in one form or another. It also became one the passions of the late business mogul and politician, MKO Abiola.
Arguably the richest black man of his era, Abiola was famous for his philanthropy. Not many, however, remember that he also deployed his enormous resources towards the campaign for reparation to Africa from its old colonial masters.
Racism of all shades and forms is a direct fallout of slavery and although reparations will not undo the inhuman system of centuries ago, many argue that it will at least demonstrate remorse by the perpetrators and bring closure to the victims.
Many are also calling on the US government and the British monarchy to lead the reparation process. And their cold shoulders on the matter have been met with condemnation and protests among Black communities in Africa, the Caribbean and Europe.
In March, Prince William and Kate Middleton faced protests in Jamaica, the Bahamas and Belize during their Caribbean tour. In 2021, Barbados dropped the Queen of England as head of state in the presence of her son, Prince Charles.
Jamaica is mulling a similar symbolic gesture.
In the US, where 74 per cent of African Americans favours reparation while 85 per cent of white people opposes it (according to an Associated Press poll), the H.R. 40 bill which proposes to create a commission to study slavery and discrimination has been gathering dust since 1989. And although there seems to be a renewed interest in confronting systemic racism and inequality by the present administration, it is yet to be seen whether Biden’s fresh appetite has reparations for restitution on its menu.
In 2019, Republican Senator Mitch McConnell admitted that slavery was America’s “original sin” but argued that slavery was abolished so long ago that no one currently alive was responsible for it. In response, journalist and author Ta-Nehisi Coates countered the lawmaker by reminding him that the US was still paying out pensions to the descendants of Civil War soldiers despite no one being alive who signed those treaties!
Agreeing on reparations for slavery is already a contentious issue. However, the form or forms they should take is even more controversial. While some are pressing strongly for direct cash payments, others think reparations should come in the form of investment in infrastructure, education and health sectors of descendants and former colonies.
Either way, agitators agree that the first step towards reparations is for the beneficiaries of Black slavery – US, Britain, The Netherlands, France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Germany, etc – to own up, admit that slavery was a cruel act and tender an unreserved, unequivocal apology to former slaves and their descendants.
No healing process kicks off without an admission of guilt and that first step, although the most difficult on the part of former slave masters, is the soothing balm former slaves and their descendants desire and deserve.
If anyone is in doubt, they should look back at the decision of the UK government in 2013 to express “sincere regret” and offer compensation for the acts of torture that British colonial government carried out against Kenyans fighting for liberation from colonial rule which was greeted with jubilation in Nairobi and beyond.
I think the West will eventually bow to the pressure coming from Caribbean countries on the issue of reparations for slavery in the forms of investment and cooperation. But without the zest of MKO and the eminent persons group, who is still bothered about reparations to the Africa?
Not known for half measures, MKO convened and sponsored the first world conference on reparations at the Nigeria Institute of International Affairs, Lagos, in 1990 and formally inaugurated the reparations campaign.
In 1991 the Heads of State and Government of the defunct Organization of African Unity during the 55th Summit of the Council of Ministers passed a resolution recognising the injustice of slavery and demanded Africa’s right to reparations.
Not much is heard about this legacy of MKO anymore, notwithstanding the fact that the continent needs such conversations more than ever before.
Although there are many reasons the disparity in the median distribution of wealth in the US tilts significantly in favour of white families ($188k for whites compared to $24k for blacks), the lingering slave-related legacy is one of them.
Analysts have estimated the cost of reparations within the US alone at between $10trillion and $19trillion, depending on model and excluding the demands of Caribbean countries.
It sounds like a huge sum of money, but how much is enough to pay for the physical, emotional and medical loss of slaves and their descendants? If denominated in today’s currency, what is the monetary value of the forced, torturous labour Black slaves put up with in plantations in the Americas?
However, beyond the big figures and arguments for and against reparations, individuals such as Trevelyan can take baby steps towards compensating descendants of slaves. In her case, she was able to trace descendants of some of her ancestors’ slaves in Grenada.
When she asked if giving money to help Grenadian students with higher education amounts to empty gesture, she was told that it would be a great symbolic gesture. “Think of the impact if every one of the slave-owning families did the same thing,” she was told.
Maybe we should start from there.

Best body boards: long boards for beginners, short boards for experts
This article contains affiliate links. We may earn a small commission on items purchased through this article, but that does not affect our editorial judgement.
The original boogie board was invented in 1971 by Tom Morey - a man who quit his stable job, moved to Hawaii, and decided to try and build a board designed to recreate the sensation of riding waves on his Dad’s back when he was a kid. The boogie board - also known as body boards or bodyboards - was born.
The early ‘Morey Boogie Boards’ were made by Tom in his backyard, glued together, and finished off with tape. They were a huge success, and to this day, boogie boards - are one of the best ways of having some serious fun in the surf.
The best thing about a body board? Unlike surfboards, you don’t need to have any skill to get started - just a bathing suit and and your boogie board, and you’ll be riding waves in minutes. This makes them an ideal choice for families, as kids and parents alike can enjoy some time catching surf on a body board.
That said, body boarding can be a serious business - there are competitions for riding waves on a bodyboard, and the more you do it, the more dexterous you’ll become, riding waves longer.
Do I want a long body board or a small one?
Bodyboards vary in size from around 30 inches to above 46 inches. A very long board is better for beginners, as it allows more stability and is easier to mount. But it won’t handle big surf as well - although it is unlikely a beginner will be wanting to head into a major swell.
Small bodyboards are great for more advanced boarders - they’re easy to manoeuvre in big surf. They have a low flotation though so best worked up to.
Traditional boards will feel stiff when you first get them - they’ll require time in the surf being ridden to soften and get more flexible, easier to manovere.
If you are looking to get good at boarding - learn some tricks, ride larger surf for longer times - you’ll need to invest in a decent board (we mean spending over £40).
There are few pieces of advice for a beginner who wants to get the most out of boarding and improve. Look for a board that is:
- Made of EPS – Expanded Polystyrene: A lightweight board with a hardy core and high floatation - ideal for beginners.
- A Single Stringer: A ‘stringer’ is a hollow, filament composite fibre tube in the core of a board, designed to strengthen an dstabilise. A single stringer is best for beginners - offering the correct balance of rigidity for paddling and flexibility for riding.
- HDPE Slick: this is the slickness on the underside of the board, connected to the water. HDPE slick is the ideal surface for beginners - durable, speedy, but not going to catapult you into the stratosphere.
However, if you want something for your toddler to tear around on in the whitewater, a cheap board will be just fine - just don’t expect it to last multiple seasons. And we don’t want to lecture, but single-use plastic is not doing our environment any favours...
Decathlon kid’s discovery inflatable bodyboard
Designed for: children 4-6, 15 - 25 kilos.
Looking for a board to help your children get used to the surf and try and catch their first wave? This inflatable bodyboard from Decathlon is a fab choice.
Essentially a glorified floatation device, it will help your child feel safe in the white water, and makes it easy for young children to catch small waves on the sea shore. They won’t catch any gnarly waves, but they will familiarise themselves with the water.
With a valve for easy inflation and deflation.
Available in four colours; fuchsia, caribbean blue, sunflower and yellow ochre.
Decathlon – Weezmi Tandem
A tandem bodyboard can be an ideal way of helping a reticent child get comfortable in the water - and develop some shared memories.
This quality bodyboard has three handles at its front, so you and your child can both hang onto the board. With a high-density plastic glide slick, it will pick up enough speed for the pair of you to feel a little thrill - without the wee one getting scared.
It is designed for waves 1 metre and under, though, so don’t take it too far out. But as a means of helping your child get to grips with the surf - and to have a laugh together - this is perfect.
ACS Clothing Salt Water Seeker SWS01 36" Bodyboard - Red
Designed for: kids around 8-12 years.
Cornwall based Ann’s Cottage are one of the UK’s best purveyors of surf gear, and their bodyboard range is similarly excellect, popular with both kids and adults.
The Salt Water Seeker has a buoyant, durable core. The bottom is PCX slick, which is great for manouverability. The price tag reflets these high spec materials - this is a quality board.
This is a fab board for kids around 8-12, looking to progress their boarding skills. It’s great for developing tricks as you ride, and suited to both prone and drop-knee riding styles.
Osprey Bodyboard with Leash, HDPE Slick and Crescent Tail
Designed for: kids and adult beginners developing skills
Built with an EPS core - flexible, but great for control, this is a durable board. The HDPE slick on its underside is ideal for beginners looking to have a bit of fun - it’ll make sure you’re speedy on broken, small waves, as you develop your confidence.
The crescent tail is good for navigating on waves, allowing you to develop your handling - although beginners will be comfortable on this board, you’ll still be able to upskill as you ride. Crescent tails are also good for helping you ‘hold’ the wave face, lengthening your ride.
Avaliable in 33, 37, 42 and 44 inch, depending on your height.
From £33.95 – £49.95, depending on what size you need to go for.
Gul – Response 44 inch (available in kids and adult sizes)
Gul have been at the forefront of water sports in the UK for fifty years, celebrated for their technical development of both kit and apparel.
The Response range of bodyboards is very popular here, representing a handy starter board with some functionality.
It’s an EPO core - stiff and strong, with the HDPE slick underneath, making for a reliably bouyant board if you’re getting to grips with the water, while still relatively speedy.
You’re not going to achieve any remarkable tricks on this board, but you will have a huge amount of fun, achieve a resonable amount of speed, and not feel out of control. Decent price point for a board made of high spec materials, too.
Decathlon – Radbug 500
Been boarding a fair amount, think you’re ready for an intermediate board? The Decathlon Radbug is the ideal transitional piece.
With that EPO core that provides bouyancy and strenghth, this board benefits from double stringers - almost unheard of at this price - which makes it more rigid and therefore adept at handling.
Great for a swell around 1.5 metres or under, you can further push yourself as a bodyboarder with this board.
900 LTD Bodyboard Pro Model Limited Edition
At first glance the price may seem a little high, but this board designed for advanced bodyboards is similar in specs and performance to some boards we’ve tried that are three times the price - making it a bargain.
Designed for advanced bodyboarders looking for speed and grip for aerial figures, this is a very reactive board - the rails hold onto the hollow of a wave beautifully. It’s got great grip, making it perfect for pulling tricks.

Member clubs from Scottish football’s fifth tier who had voted to re-admit only two B teams next season are reportedly ready to respond to the Premiership trio’s all-or-none demands by turning them all away and with it a combined entry fee of £120,000.
The issue will be discussed at Monday’s annual general meeting, where it is expected that clubs will move to vote on rejecting all three applications.
Clubs initially rubber-stamped the re-admission of two B teams next season – in the expectation that Celtic and Rangers colts would take up the slots again for a second season. But Hearts threw a spanner in the works with a late application which now looks like it will result in all three being turned away.
The 16 member clubs rejected an expanded 19-team league after Hearts’ late intervention, voting instead to stick by their initial decision to admit only two guest sides.
That raised the prospect of an awkward vote to reject one of the three applicants but, according to the Daily Mail, Celtic, Hearts and Rangers have since delivered all-or-none demands.
Hearts applied for the Lowland League after talks on restarting a reserve league for next season stalled. The Tynecastle club, like Celtic and Rangers, were hoping to find regular competitive fixtures for their young players to play in, with the gap between the current Club Academy Scotland under-18 league and the first team considered far too big.
Sending players out on loan is another option, but Hearts boss Robbie Neilson has previously explained that they would prefer to have full control over their own young players.
The Edinburgh Evening News understands that Hearts had intended to play Lowland League matches at Whitehill Welfare’s Ferguson Park in Rosewell, with Riccarton not meeting the criteria of being a licensed ground.
Under last season’s Lowland League experiment, both Celtic and Rangers paid £25,000 each as an entry fee and their colts teams were ineligible for promotion.
The entry fee was set to increase to £40,000 and rules for the colts teams were expected to be tightened up for next season, but the experiment now looks doomed to failure.
Cowdenbeath will be in the Lowland League next season after being replaced in League 2 by Bonnyrigg Rose in the pyramid play-off, while Darvel or Tranent will replace relegated Vale of Leithen. The East and West of Scotland League champions go head-to-head in a winner-takes-all play-off decider in Ayrshire on Saturday. | https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hearts/lowland-league-b-team-experiment-doomed-to-failure-as-hearts-celtic-and-rangers-face-rejection-3710200 | 2022-05-26T13:21:27Z | https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hearts/lowland-league-b-team-experiment-doomed-to-failure-as-hearts-celtic-and-rangers-face-rejection-3710200 | true | 1 |

God of War: Ragnarok has been rated in Korea, which could mean word of a release date is closer than expected.
A listing (opens in new tab) hosted by Korea's Game Rating and Administration Committee appeared earlier today. A translation via Google confirms the name of the game, stating that it's "not available for youth," presumably meaning the local equivalent of a Mature rating.
It goes on to describe God of War Ragnarok as an "action-adventure game based on Norse mythology, depicting the adventures of Kratos and his son Atreus." That doesn't tell us much, but the listing goes on to describe "excessive profanity [...]throughout the game," "direct drug expression," and "characters drinking alcohol in pubs." Given what we've seen of Thor's in-game character model, that doesn't come as too much of a surprise.
Traditionally, ratings tend to appear in the run-up to a game's launch, but it seems highly unlikely that Sony is preparing to shadow-drop one of its biggest titles of 2022. What this could mean, however, is that a reveal isn't far away - the E3 2022 conference season isn't far away, and some fans have been pointing out the company's habit of showing off its major titles at the end of May. Both The Last of Us Part 2 and Horizon Forbidden West received dedicated State of Play showcases on May 27 202, and 2021, respectively, so there's a chance that a similar presentation could be announced today in time for tomorrow.
Adding to questions around an imminent release date announcement is the sudden appearance of God of War Ragnarok merchandise expected to ship over the summer, potentially hinting at a launch in the fall.
As well as Ragnarok, Kratos and Atreus will grace our screens in the God of War TV show heading to Amazon Prime. | https://www.gamesradar.com/uk/god-of-war-ragnarok-has-been-rated-in-korea/ | 2022-05-26T13:26:11Z | https://www.gamesradar.com/uk/god-of-war-ragnarok-has-been-rated-in-korea/ | true | 3 |

After falling for seven straight weeks, US stockmarkets lifted despite a profit warning from social media company Snap that triggered a 44 per cent plunge in its share price.
Gains also for the ASX200, supported by a rebound on Wall Street and prospects of more stimulus in China to combat the impact of ongoing COVID lockdowns.
Here are the top five things that happened in markets this week:
1. Anthony Albanese becomes Australia’s 31st PM
After winning the federal election, Anthony Albanese was sworn in as Australia’s 31st Prime Minister on Monday, promising action on climate change, greater gender equality and improved wage growth.
Markets have taken the change of government in their stride.
2. Kiwi flies after hawkish RBNZ rate rise
The Reserve Bank of New Zealand raised the official cash rate by 50 basis points to 2 per cent, a follow up to its 50 basis point rate hike in April.
While this was widely expected, the hawkish surprise came as the RBNZ revised its terminal rate to 3.9 per cent in June 2023 from its earlier 3.35 per cent forecast.
3. FOMC meeting minutes hawkish
The minutes from the Federal Reserve’s May meeting indicated a broad consensus for 50 basis point rate hikes at the June and July meetings and conveyed few concerns about downside risks to growth.
4. Natural gas steams higher
Natural gas closed at its highest price since 2008, as the war in Ukraine continues to cause chaos for energy markets.
Natural gas provides about 20 per cent of Australia’s energy sources, and Australia is the world’s fifth-biggest natural gas exporter.
5. ASX200-listed AI company Appen soars by 30 per cent
Artificial intelligence data services company Appen soared 30 per cent after becoming the target of a $1.2 billion unsolicited takeover proposal from Telus International.
Before the bid, Appen had fallen 43 per cent year to date.

DEAR ABBY: One of my siblings was abused as a child. In turn, he abused me when he was a pre-teen and into his teens. It stopped when he got a girlfriend at the age of 14. This was news to my parents.
Now that the cat is out of the bag, I have tried to explain to my mom that I don’t like being around him. She has heard me, but she pretends like it didn’t happen and still tries to get everyone together for holidays, etc. The idea of seeing him makes me sick, and I’m terrified for his children.
I went to therapy as a young adult to work out my issues with him and what happened. The abuse has affected my ability to hold onto relationships, and I fight depression often, which I am good at hiding. She keeps saying, “but you were so close as kids.” I don’t think she understands what “grooming” is. Can you PLEASE explain it in a manner that doesn’t make me feel like it was all my fault? — GETTING BEYOND IT
DEAR GETTING: Your fault? NONE of what happened was your fault! Predators groom victims by first establishing a close relationship with them, telling them they are “special,” that their bond is special, that the usual rules of behavior do not apply to them, bestowing time, attention and gifts, and pledging them to secrecy. Please show this to your mother. I hope it will help her understand that getting the family together is not in the cards now or ever.
I am concerned by your statement that the abuse has caused you to be depressed, which you are “good at hiding,” and which prevents you from forming relationships. Those issues might be resolved if, as an adult, you consult another licensed psychotherapist. While it may not be something you wish to revisit, I hope you will consider it.
DEAR ABBY: I am a woman who is engaged to a wonderful woman who has a busy life. We met online 18 months ago and felt an instant connection. She has two grown children, a 16-year-old son, two grandchildren and one on the way. We live five hours apart and see each other every three weeks.
My concern is that we talk only once or twice during the week and maybe text once a day. It is not enough for me. I have expressed how I feel, but I think she’s just too busy. She plans on moving in with me once we are married. I recently purchased a brand-new home. Because she is so involved in her family’s lives, I can’t see her leaving them to live with me. What should I do? — NERVOUS IN NEW JERSEY
DEAR NERVOUS: You and your fiancee need to have a serious, in-depth conversation about how this will work. It is important you two clarify how she plans to divide her time between you and her family because, right now, you are getting the short end of the stick. Will the 16-year-old live with you? Because you aren’t getting what you need from this relationship despite the fact that you have explained what your needs are, it may be time to rethink this romance. | https://www.thedailyreview.com/dear-abby/article_e4c73e5f-df7d-5eab-aef2-c1a6f5b1ca66.html | 2022-05-26T13:31:30Z | https://www.thedailyreview.com/dear-abby/article_e4c73e5f-df7d-5eab-aef2-c1a6f5b1ca66.html | false | 17 |

PM Shehbaz offers a committee for talks on new elections
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Thursday said that baton-wielding mobs cannot be allowed to rebel against the Constitution while adding that the politicians must keep the doors of dialogue open despite bitterness.
During his address to the National Assembly (NA), PM Shehbaz criticized PTI’s long march on Islamabad and questioned if there was any room for anarchy and chaos under the current economic condition of Pakistan.
Against the visuals on the media, he claimed that no boundaries were scaled or arrests were done to sabotage the long march.
He said a prime minister was ousted through a no-confidence motion for the first time in the country’s history.
He said that the permission for staging sit-ins cannot be given in an already poor economic condition, adding that his government is trying its best to revive the economy.
Criticizing ex-prime minister Imran Khan and his march on Islamabad which ended Thursday morning with an ultimatum of six days for new elections’ date, he said Imran Khan repeated the visuals of 2014 and added that Pakistan would fall behind if he would be allowed to keep doing so.
He said that the beautiful green areas of Islamabad were wrecked yesterday while claiming that the arms seized yesterday in Punjab were to be supplied to the long march.
He said the government exercised caution and the security personnel were prohibited to use live weapons on the marchers.
The premier said that three police personnel were martyred and more than 100 were injured in the clashes with mobs, overturning of a bus and firing at a policeman in Lahore and announced a package for the martyred and injured police personnel.
Warning Imran Khan, the premier said they would not be intimidated by threats and added that Imran Khan should give dictation at his home not to the assembly.
He reiterated that the parliament will decide on the date for new elections however offered constitution of a committee for dialogue.
He said the drama must end now or else they would fall behind.
The premier said that the PTI denigrated the judiciary and institutions, unlike his government which implemented the court’s order yesterday.
The premier reiterated that the PTI government destroyed the economy, adding that they have to bring the ship of sinking economy to the shore together.
PM Shehbaz said the PTI government laid mine for the new government by subsidizing fuel and electricity prices during the last days of his government.
He also commended the NA on new amendments to the election laws under which polling through electronic voting machines (EVMs) will not take place while overseas Pakistanis will not be granted voting rights in the next elections.
PM Shehbaz said organization of the fair election was one of their two targets apart from reviving economy, adding that the NA has laid foundation of fair elections by passing the new law. | https://www.samaaenglish.tv/news/40009491/pm-shehbaz-offers-a-committee-for-talks-on-new-elections | 2022-05-26T13:33:04Z | https://www.samaaenglish.tv/news/40009491/pm-shehbaz-offers-a-committee-for-talks-on-new-elections | true | 1 |

Background
Malta's strategic geographical position has assisted its aviation industry to present numerous economic opportunities, for many years. The importance of the Malta aviation sector has led the Maltese Authorities to strengthen its aviation framework to further enhance aircraft registration and aircraft operator licensing.
Malta and the Aircraft Registration Act
Malta has aimed to position itself as one of the primary aviation hubs in the EU by continually reviewing and bolstering its aviation registry. The available aviation legislation provides the aviation industry with a solid foundation. This is further complemented by; competitive aviation registration costs, the authority's practical understanding of the aviation sector, and favourable corporate structures. As a result, the aviation framework provides several benefits to individuals seeking to register an aircraft on the island.
The importance of Malta's flag has already been proved within the aviation industry and the inception of the Malta Aircraft Registration Act in 2010, positioned Malta as having one of the most reputable aircraft registers, within the aviation sector.
The Aircraft Registration Act has helped to enhance the aviation framework on the island. Malta has also implemented the ‘Cape Town Convention in Interests in Mobile Equipment' and its ‘Aircraft Protocol'. Malta took additional measures to boost the aviation industry in 2012, by establishing the Safi Aviation Park, providing a number of aviation services, including training and repairs.
Benefits of Aircraft Registration in Malta
There are many benefits and innovative concepts relating to aircraft registration in Malta.
Amongst these, as mentioned above, was the enactment of the Aircraft Registration Act (Chapter 503, Laws of Malta), which came into force on 1st October 2010. This new regime was implemented to regulate the registration of aircraft, mortgages, and other securities relating to aircraft.
- In terms of Maltese legislation, an aircraft may be registered by; an owner who operates an aircraft, or an owner of an aircraft under construction (or an aircraft temporarily not being used or managed), or an operator of an aircraft under temporary title (subject to certain conditions), or a buyer of an aircraft under a condition of sale or title reservation agreement.
Additional benefits include:
A. More visibility of rights and interests in relation to aircraft, through the updating of the National Register;
B. Incentives to encourage the development of finance and operating leases relating to aircraft. Legislation provides clear rules on the tax treatment of the finance charge, available tax deductions to finance lessors, and capital allowances for lessees;
C. Broader registration options, extending to aircraft under construction or temporarily not in service and aircraft under a temporary title;
D. Recognition of fractional ownership of aircraft;
E. No withholding tax on lease payments where the lessor is not a tax resident of Malta;
F. Competitive minimum depreciation periods for aircraft;
G. The private use of an aircraft by an individual who is not resident in Malta and is an employee/officer of an employer/company/partnership, whose business activities include the ownership/leasing/operation of aircraft used for international transport, does not constitute a taxable fringe benefit.
H. Legislation implementation including the provision of the Cape Town Convention on ‘International Interests in Mobile Equipment' and its ‘Aircraft Protocol', thereby granting secured lenders more protection and more effective remedies whilst also enabling lower borrowing costs.
Tax, Standards and Flexibility Advantages of Private and Commercial Aircraft Registration in Malta
Tax
Since 2007, Malta has offered an attractive corporate tax system whereby non-residents can claim tax refunds. In practical terms, the standard 35% corporate tax rate is often effectively reduced to between 0% and 5%.
If you are considering aircraft registration in Malta, another tax benefit is that income, from the international transport of goods and passengers outside the country, is exempt from Maltese tax.
As an EU member state since 2004, the Maltese aircraft register permits free circulation of aircraft in the eurozone, which allows tax-free commercial operation.
VAT Treatment
The VAT treatment for aircraft leasing makes Malta an attractive jurisdiction for private and commercial aircraft registration, whilst ensuring full adherence to EU laws and regulations. The rules take into account the amount of time spent by an aircraft within EU airspace.
The imposition of VAT in Malta varies according to how an aircraft is used. The key differentiation is between, an aircraft being used by an airline operator mainly for ‘reward' in relation to the international transport of goods or passengers, or an aircraft that is being used purely for private use.
VAT implications, such as those applicable in other EU member states, are also relevant in relation to; importations, intra-community acquisitions, and/or supply of aircraft. The intra-community purchase, importation or supply of aircraft destined for use by an airline operator chiefly for international transport of passengers or goods is classified as an exempt credit supply.
The following are additional exempt credit supplies:
(a) Supplies of equipment to constructors, owners, or operators of an aircraft;
(b) Supplies of services consisting of the modification, maintenance, chartering and hiring of an aircraft.
The VAT treatment applies to all aircraft, other than those used by airline operators for international traffic, as a VAT exemption applies in this latter case.
According to Malta's VAT legislation, the lease of an aircraft, which airline operators do not use for international traffic, is the supply of a service subject to VAT, with the right of deduction of input VAT by the lessor.
In terms of the VAT simplification procedure, the portion of the lease that will be subject to VAT, depends on the amount of time that the aircraft is used in EU airspace. As it is difficult to identify the movement of a plane in advance and the period in which the aircraft will be operated in EU airspace, Malta applies an ‘expert technical test,' to estimate the portion of the lease that will be subject to VAT. The standard Malta VAT rate of 18% is applicable on the established percentage of the lease that is deemed to be related to the use of the aircraft in EU airspace.
In addition, Malta offers a very solid legislative environment, with an extensive double-tax treaty network and transparency of rights and interests.
Standards
Falling under the jurisdiction of the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), the Maltese aircraft register implements some of the highest levels of regulation in the world. Aircraft registration in Malta offers business jet owners peace of mind, with its International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) rating, testament to stringent safety and security standards.
In addition, Malta adheres to the Cape Town Convention on ‘International Interests in Mobile Equipment', which specifies international standards for leases, security interests and the registration of contracts.
Flexibility
Aircraft registration in Malta offers unparalleled flexibility for international operators. Aircraft on the Maltese aircraft register can be based and freely operated from anywhere globally.
It is also possible to add an aircraft that is currently under construction or ‘out of action' to the Malta aircraft register.
Aircraft registration in Malta allows operators to take advantage of fractional ownership of a single aircraft. The potential benefits are enormous, with several co-owners being able to detail a percentage stake, each financed by a separate creditor.

The Federal Government has conducted a census or account of its population every year since 1790. In that year, the census takers, who were U.S. Marshals on horseback, counted 3.9 million inhabitants.
Why did the government undertake such a large project? As America expanded, the nation’s interests grew more complex and the government needed to plan for that new growth.
The Territory of Florida was interested in the number of people who lived within its borders because a minimum population was required for statehood. The first federal census of the Territory of Florida was taken in 1830. The total population of the territory was 34,730 or 0.6 inhabitants per square mile. By 1840, the population of the 20 counties formed to date had grown to 54,477 men, women and children.
In 1845, the minimum population requirements must have been met as Florida was admitted to the Union on March 3 and Levy County was formed one week later on March 10.
Although Levy County has experienced moderate increases and deceases in population over the years since the first official Federal census was conducted in Florida in 1850, the number of inhabitants in Levy County totaled:
1850: 465
1860: 1,781
1870: 2,018
1880: 5,767
1890: 6,586
1900: 8,603
1910: 10,361
1920: 9,921
1930: 12,456
1940: 12,550
1950: 10,637
1960: 10,364
1970: 10,756
1980: 19,870
1990: 25,923
2000: 34,450
2010: 40,801
2020: 42,915
For local governments, the U.S. Census that takes place every 10 years is as much about counting money as about counting people. The Federal government uses census figures as the basis for handing out billions in aid. | https://www.lpheralddispatch.com/tracking-history/article_5429fc83-e566-50d8-86e3-497b530f0058.html | 2022-05-26T13:39:19Z | https://www.lpheralddispatch.com/tracking-history/article_5429fc83-e566-50d8-86e3-497b530f0058.html | true | 1 |

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — A volunteer with Nashville International Airport is being hailed a hero after a woman fired a gun near the baggage claim area.
Earnest Cobble came back to BNA from retirement after working there for 25 years.
“I’m kind of accustomed to people asking ‘how do I get here? where is this, where is that? where are the restrooms?’ So when I retired, I just said I wouldn’t mind being a volunteer,” Cobble told News 2.
Around 7 a.m. on Easter Sunday, he wasn’t alarmed when a woman kept coming to the desk with questions so he started helping a couple afterward and that’s when he heard a gunshot.
“From where I’m standing now as I turned and the young lady was behind me and the first thing I said was ma’am you shouldn’t have that gun here at the airport,” he recalled.
The woman was identified as 39-year-old Danielle Calthomas. Cobble recalled the tense moments for him, Calthomas, and the passengers nearby.
“I asked them to get down, I asked her to put the gun down. I begged her put the gun down,” he said. “She fired again, I kept yelling at her put the gun down, put the gun down and she slid to the floor and fell on her stomach.”
All of this was happening as Cobble warned passengers to stay away.
“I’m telling passengers coming from the north end to get back and passengers coming up the elevator to go back down the elevator,” he said.
Throughout the ordeal, he kept trying to keep Calthomas’ attention.
“She asked me to call 911 and I had airport police on the phone already and then she asked me to call her mother and through that process, I’m telling her put the gun down, slide the gun to the door,” said Cobble.
Eventually, he said she slid the gun out of her reach and airport police swooped in.
According to an arrest affidavit, Calthomas had fired the weapon twice with one round next to her head and the other in her left thigh. The report stated that officers responding to the scene reported smelling burnt gunpowder in the air and saw a bullet casing on the floor after the incident. Calthomas told officers she was “sorry” and was rendered medical aid.
“Ask me why I stayed calm, I can’t give you that answer, I just knew I didn’t want her to hurt herself, hurt anyone else, or hurt me,” Cobble said.
His actions were honored by Metro Council and the airport’s Board of Commissioners, crediting him for helping to avoid a potential tragedy.
“Several times, I ask myself I go through all these scenarios of what could happen and I ask OK it could have gone a different direction, I’m glad it did not,” he said. “Talking to our police officers here, they let me know ‘hey you did the right thing, you kept your eye on her’ and let me know it played out the best way it could play out, everybody is alive.”
Cobble said he felt communication was crucial during the whole incident. He told the airport police exactly where he was located and they sent the nearest officers to help.
Calthomas was charged with reckless endangerment with a deadly weapon and was released four hours after being booked. | https://www.wkrn.com/news/local-news/nashville/bna-volunteer-recalls-tense-moments-with-armed-woman-near-baggage-claim/ | 2022-05-26T13:43:41Z | https://www.wkrn.com/news/local-news/nashville/bna-volunteer-recalls-tense-moments-with-armed-woman-near-baggage-claim/ | true | 2 |

Pakistan: SC dismisses govt's contempt petition against Imran's long march
Pakistan's Supreme Court on Thursday dismissed a petition filed by the government, looking for the contempt proceedings against the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman and former Prime Minister Imran Khan for 'violating' the apex court's orders regarding the party's Azadi March.

Pakistan's Supreme Court on Thursday dismissed a petition filed by the government, looking for the contempt proceedings against the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman and former Prime Minister Imran Khan for 'violating' the apex court's orders regarding the party's Azadi March. The petition was heard by the five-member bench, headed by Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial, including Justice Ijazul Ahsan, Justice Munib Akhtar, Justice Yahya Afridi and Justice Sayyed Mazahar Ali Akbar Naqvi, Dawn newspaper reported.
The case was filed by Attorney General Ashtar Ausaf. The bench said that the apex court's orders from Wednesday would remain in place. Earlier, on Wednesday, the Supreme Court directed the federal government and the PTI to constitute their negotiating committees and meet at 10 pm on the same day to finalise modalities for the party's peaceful and safe long march to Islamabad.
However, negotiations were not held as both sides claimed that the other had not shown up. It also ordered the government to designate a spot in H-9 where the protesters could rally. However, protesters converged on D-Chowk instead, reported Dawn.
The chief justice directed the government to do its work in line with Wednesday's orders and said the SC would issue a judgement regarding the case which would be an "example for the future". "We are not conducting proceedings in order to accuse anyone," he iterated. "The court issued the order only against violation of constitutional rights."
Earlier, police in Pakistan fired tear gas and clashed with supporters of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in the wee hours of Thursday as Imran Khan started reaching Islamabad to demand fresh elections. Tension gripped the country as clashes took place between police and PTI workers after authorities tried to block them from moving toward D-Chowk in the federal capital after Imran Khan warned his supporters would not vacate D-Chowk until a date for fresh polls was announced by the Shehbaz Sharif government.
Earlier in the day, looking at the uncontrolled protest march led by Imran Khan, the Shehbaz Sharif government has been forced to call in the army to protect the Red Zone. The Pakistan government deployed the army in Red Zone to "protect important government buildings" after Imran Khan entered the federal capital amid rising tensions in the country.
Rights groups expressed deep concern at the highhandedness of law enforcement agencies in disrupting the PTI's march to Islamabad. (ANI)

Thursday marks the anniversary of a Victoria tragedy, when a bridge failed and a streetcar plunged into the waters of the Gorge Waterway.
On the afternoon of May 26, 1896, the mid-span of the Point Ellice Bridge – now commonly called the Bay Street Bridge – collapsed as the Consolidated Electric Railway Company’s No. 16 streetcar crossed. Passengers – later determined to number well beyond 100 in a car designed for far less – were primarily destined for a mock battle at Macauley Point as part of celebrations marking the queen’s birthday.
READ ALSO: Point Ellice House in Victoria looks to patch up during pandemic
“Due to lacking safety standards, poor bridge maintenance, and the overcrowded car, the streetcar fell into the water as the bridge gave out beneath it,” reads the Point Ellice House website. It’s a point of history for the heritage residence, as bodies were brought up to the lawns of Captain William Grant’s home. Boats raced to the scene to help and eventually, the streetcar was pulled onto the adjacent shore.
The loss of 55 men, women and children was recounted in news coverage the next day, which noted thousands filled the streets in an attempt to help or find out the fate of loved ones.
It also included eyewitness accounts of two horse-drawn vehicles and a cyclist also going down in the bridge collapse.
Warning: The video below contains accounts of deaths that include children.
A 1972 10-minute film documents the collapse and features audio from the coroner’s inquest that found the bridge, just beyond a decade old, had been “utterly neglected.”

Dataminers have found evidence that PS5 exclusive Returnal is coming to PC, although there’s been no official announcement yet.
When PC games such as Horizon Zero Dawn and Days Gone started appearing on PC it caused a great deal of controversy amongst fans who were previously used to first party PlayStation games only being on console.
Many suggested that Sony would only ever port older PlayStation 4 games, but it was clear that would never remain the case if the PC versions proved successful, and so it’s no real surprise to find Returnal is next in line.
Its presence on Steam is not yet confirmed but dataminers believe it’s already on the service, using the codename Oregon.
Although the name Returnal is not used, the SteamDB entry includes references to Atropos and Tower of Sisyphus, which are elements from the game with very distinctive names.
Oregon also uses tags including ‘sci-fi’, ‘rogue-like’, and ‘bullet hell’, which describes the game perfectly.
It was also listed in the Nvidia mega leak last year, which so far has proven extremely accurate despite Nvidia’s attempt to pretend it was merely speculation.
That list also includes cross-gen PlayStation exclusive Sackboy: A Big Adventure, which suggests that will be making its way to PC soon as well.
Originally released last April, Returnal was only a mild commerical hit but hailed by many, including us, as the best game of the year.
So far the PlayStation 5 has only had three first party exclusives: Returnal, Demon’s Souls, and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. There now seems no reason why the other two won’t also come to the PC, although Rift Apart would require an SSD to work.

UVALDE, Texas (AP) — Law enforcement authorities faced questions and criticism Thursday over how much time elapsed before they stormed an Uvalde elementary school classroom and put a stop to the rampage by a gunman who killed 19 children and two teachers.
Investigators were also unable to say with any certainty whether an armed school district security officer outside Robb Elementary exchanged fire with the attacker, 18-year-old Salvador Ramos, when he first arrived on Tuesday.
The motive for the rampage — the nation's deadliest school shooting since Newtown, Connecticut, a decade ago — remained under investigation, with authorities saying Ramos had no known criminal or mental health history.
During the siege, which ended when a Border Patrol team burst in and shot Ramo to death, frustrated onlookers urged police officers to charge into the school, according to witnesses.
“Go in there! Go in there!” women shouted at the officers soon after the attack began, said Juan Carranza, 24, who watched the scene from outside his house, across the street from the school.
Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steve McCraw said Wednesday that 40 minutes to an hour elapsed from when Ramos opened fire on the school security officer to when the tactical team shot him.
But a department spokesman said later that authorities could not give a solid estimate of how long the gunman was in the school.
“The bottom line is law enforcement was there,” McCraw said. “They did engage immediately. They did contain (Ramos) in the classroom.”
Meanwhile, a law enforcement official familiar with the investigation said the Border Patrol agents had trouble breaching the classroom door and had to get a staff member to open the room with a key. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk publicly about the investigation.
Javier Cazares, whose fourth grade daughter, Jacklyn Cazares, was killed in the attack, said he raced to the school when he heard about the shooting, arriving while police were still gathered outside.
Upset that police were not moving in, he raised the idea of charging into the school with several other bystanders.
“Let’s just rush in because the cops aren’t doing anything like they are supposed to,” he said. “More could have been done.”
“They were unprepared,” he added.
Carranza had watched as Ramos crashed his truck into a ditch outside the school, grabbed his AR-15-style semi-automatic rifle and shot at two people outside a funeral home, who ran away uninjured.
Lt. Christopher Olivarez of the Department of Public Safety told CNN that the school security officer outside was armed and that initial reports said he and Ramos exchanged gunfire. “But right now we’re trying to corroborate that information,” Olivarez said.
After entering the school, Ramos barricaded himself in a classroom and began to kill.
Carranza said the officers should have entered the school sooner.
“There were more of them. There was just one of him,” he said.
On Wednesday night, hundreds packed the bleachers at the town’s fairgrounds for a vigil. Some cried. Some closed their eyes tight, mouthing silent prayers. Parents wrapped their arms around their children as the speakers led prayers for healing.
Before attacking the school, Ramos shot and wounded his grandmother at the home they shared.
Neighbor Gilbert Gallegos, 82, who lives across the street and has known the family for decades, said he was puttering in his yard when he heard the shots.
Ramos ran out the front door and across the yard to a truck parked in front of the house and raced away: “He spun out, I mean fast,” spraying gravel in the air, Gallegos said.
Ramos' grandmother emerged covered in blood: “She says, ‘Berto, this is what he did. He shot me.’” She was hospitalized.
Gallegos said he had heard no arguments before or after the shots, and knew of no history of bullying or abuse of Ramos, whom he rarely saw.
Lorena Auguste was substitute teaching at Uvalde High School when she heard about the shooting and began frantically texting her niece, a fourth grader at Robb Elementary. Eventually she found out the girl was OK.
But that night, her niece had a question.
“Why did they do this to us?” the girl asked. “We’re good kids. We didn’t do anything wrong.”

Xiaomi recently rolled out the Pad 5 in India powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 860 processor. Now, the latest rumours suggest that Xiaomi is prepping up to drop the Xiaomi Pad 6 by August 2022. As of now, there is no official confirmation regarding the same from the company.
Nonetheless, a report by XiaomiUI (opens in new tab)has suggested that the Xiaomi Pad 6 has appeared on the EEC certification website. The device carries model number 22081283G. It is being speculated that the first four numbers of the model number signify the year and month of launch which hints at August 2022.
Apart from that, well-known tipster Mukul Sharma has said that the upcoming tablet by Xiaomi is already being tested internally. He further confirms the timeline by saying that the tablet could see the market by July end of August beginning.
Rumours have it that the Xiaomi Pad 6 will run on a MediaTek processor instead of a Qualcomm chipset. The processor of the device has not been revealed until now. However, we can expect a Dimensity series MediaTek SoC that will be able to outperform the Snapdragon 860 SoC to be a part of its successor.
No other information regarding the specifications and the features of the Xiaomi Pad 6 are available at this point in time. It seems like the readers have to wait for more time to know the exact details regarding the Xiaomi offering.
Future of tablet market in India
One thing which we are sure of is that the tablet market is going to shine bright this year. Realme and Xiaomi have already kicked off their launching spree and the brands have more tablets lined up for India launch.
Apart from that, we cannot forget that other brands like Vivo, Oppo, and OnePlus are all set to make their debut in the Indian tablet market. Hopes are already high from the OnePlus offering that could also ship with the Snapdragon 870 processor. It will be interesting to see the customers' response to these upcoming devices. | https://www.techradar.com/in/news/xiaomi-pad-6-could-debut-pretty-soon-with-a-mediatek-processor | 2022-05-26T13:59:54Z | https://www.techradar.com/in/news/xiaomi-pad-6-could-debut-pretty-soon-with-a-mediatek-processor | true | 1 |
Arsenal are reportedly 'very close' to signing Alvaro Morata this summer after failing in a move for the Spaniard in January.
The Spanish striker has long been a target for the Gunners, with the prospect of a move having been explored once again with the north London side keen to add to their attacking options ahead of the 2022/23 season. Alexandre Lacazette looks likely to depart at the end of his contract and despite Eddie Nketiah having seemingly agreed a new deal at the Emirate Stadium, there is still a dire need for reinforcements.
Now, it appears that the Gunners are edging towards bringing in a forward. As per Sport, the Gunners are ‘very close’ to sealing the signature of Morata for a fee of £25million.
Should that be the case then it would be the Spaniard's first return to the Premier League since his disastrous spell with Chelsea. The 29-year-old was signed from Real Madrid in 2017, scoring 24 goals before departing midway through the next campaign in a switch to Atletico Madrid.
He joined the Spanish giants on a permanent basis before then switching to former club Juventus on a two-year loan deal last term. The Turin outfit have an option to retain his services permanently but are not expected to activate that clause with Morata having netted just 12 goals in all competitions this season.
Should Arsenal actually pursue his services then it would be the second time in just a few months that they moved for the striker. Gunners boss Mikel Arteta was reported to have made a late deadline day phone call to his compatriot in order to tempt him into a move to the Emirates Stadium following the departure of former captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Barcelona.
Would Alvaro Morata be a good signing for Arsenal? Have your say in the comments below.
In the end, Morata ended up staying at the Juventus Stadium but could well be in line to finally switch to north London this summer. Juve boss Max Allegri has previously hailed the Spanish striker despite his somewhat indifferent form this season.
Speaking earlier this season, he said: "Alvaro is one of the best forwards on a technical level in Europe. He will struggle more if you use him with his back to goal, but if he plays a little wider, with the space to run inside and use his characteristics, he's excellent.”
Morata will have just one year remaining on his Atletico Madrid contract once he returns to the Wanda Metropolitano this summer. Elsewhere, Arsenal remain linked with a number of strikers around Europe including names such as Alexander Isak, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Victor Osimhen.
Director of Football Edu has already revealed Arsenal’s intention to recruit some of the most promising talents in world football going forwards. He said: "We have to be able to evolve the team, improve our players, improve all departments, generate even more connection with our fans, improve the atmosphere at the Emirates, be able to recruit top, top talent and the best people for this club to drive this project to that level.”

States divided on gun controls, even as mass shootings rise
OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — Washington Gov. Jay Inslee was quick to react to this week’s carnage at a Texas elementary school, sending a tweet listing the gun control measures the Democratic-controlled state has taken. He finished with: “Your turn Congress.”
But gun control measures are likely going nowhere in Congress, and they also have become increasingly scarce in most states. Aside from several Democratic-controlled states, the majority have taken no action on gun control in recent years or have moved aggressively to expand gun rights.
That’s because they are either controlled politically by Republicans who oppose gun restrictions or are politically divided, leading to stalemate.
“Here I am in a position where I can do something, I can introduce legislation, and yet to know that it almost certainly is not going to go anywhere is a feeling of helplessness,” said state Sen. Greg Leding, a Democrat in the GOP-controlled Arkansas Legislature. He has pushed unsuccessfully for red flag laws that would allow authorities to remove firearms from those determined to be a danger to themselves or others.
After Tuesday’s massacre at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, that left 19 students and two teachers dead, Democratic governors and lawmakers across the country issued impassioned pleas for Congress and their own legislatures to pass gun restrictions. Republicans have mostly called for more efforts to address mental health and to shore up protections at schools, such as adding security guards.
Among them is Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who has repeatedly talked about mental health struggles among young people and said tougher gun laws in places like New York and California are ineffective. In Tennessee, GOP Rep. Jeremy Faison tweeted that the state needs to have security officers “in all of our schools,” but stopped short of promising to introduce legislation during next year’s legislative session: “Evil exists and we must protect the innocent from it,” Faison said.
Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers has repeatedly clashed with the GOP-controlled Legislature over gun laws. He has called for passage of universal background checks and “red flag” laws, only to be ignored by Republicans. Earlier this year, the Democrat vetoed a Republican bill that would have allowed holders of concealed carry permits to have firearms in vehicles on school grounds and in churches located on the grounds of a private school.
“We cannot accept that gun violence just happens,” Evers said in a tweet. “We cannot accept that kids might go to school and never come home. We cannot accept the outright refusal of elected officials to act.”
On Wednesday, a day after the Texas shooting, legislative Democrats asked that the Wisconsin gun safety bills be taken up again, apparently to no avail. Republican Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu and Assembly Speaker Robin Vos did not return messages seeking their response.
In Pennsylvania, an effort by Democratic lawmakers Wednesday in the GOP-controlled Legislature to ban owning, selling or making high-capacity, semi-automatic firearms failed, as House Republicans displayed their firm opposition to gun restrictions. The GOP-majority Legislature has rejected appeals by Democratic governors over the past two decades to tighten gun control laws, including taking steps such as expanding background checks or limiting the number of handgun purchases one person can make in a month.
The situation is similar in Michigan, which has a Democratic governor and Republican-controlled Legislature. On Wednesday, Democrats in the state Senate were thwarted in their efforts to advance a group of bills that would require gun owners to lock up their firearms and keep them away from minors.
“Every day we don’t take action, we are choosing guns over children,” said Democratic Sen. Rosemary Bayer, whose district includes a high school where a teen was charged in a shooting that killed four in November and whose parents are charged with involuntary manslaughter, accused of failing to lock up their gun. “Enough is enough. No more prayers, no more thoughts, no more inaction.”
Republican state Sen. Ken Horn responded by urging discussion about the other potential causes of gun violence.
“I would just point out that there are political solutions, but there are just as many spiritual solutions,” he said. “We don’t know what’s really happening in this world, what’s happening in this country, what’s happening to young men.”
Florida stands out as a Republican-controlled state that took action. The 2018 shooting at a high school in Parkland that left 14 students and three staff members dead prompted lawmakers there to pass a law with a red flag provision that lets law enforcement officers petition a court to have guns confiscated from a person considered a threat.
Democrats now want that expanded to allow family members or roommates to make the same request of the courts, but there has been little appetite among Republicans to amend the law. Instead, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis said he wants lawmakers to allow people to carry handguns without a permit. The state currently requires a concealed weapons license.
While Republicans have supported red flag laws in some other states, most legislative action around gun control in recent years has been in states led by Democrats.
In Washington state, the governor earlier this year signed a package of bills related to firearm magazine limits, ghost guns and adding more locations where guns are prohibited, including ballot counting sites.
In California on Wednesday, Gov. Gavin Newsom and top Democratic legislative leaders vowed to fast-track gun legislation, identifying about a dozen bills they plan to pass this year. Newsom highlighted a bill that would let private citizens enforce a ban on assault weapons by filing lawsuits – similar to a law in Texas that bans most abortions through civil enforcement.
Oregon’s Democratically controlled Legislature has passed bills that require background checks, prohibit guns on public school grounds, allow firearms to be taken from those who pose a risk and ensure safe storage of firearms. On Wednesday, a group of six Democrats said more must be done after the mass shooting in Texas and the racially motivated massacre in Buffalo, New York. They pledged additional action next year.
“We ran for office to solve big problems and make life better for our constituents — and that includes taking on the gun lobby and politicians that place profits and political power over children’s lives,” they said in a joint statement.
But there are limits even in some Democratic-controlled states, underscoring the challenge of gaining consensus to combat the rising frequency of mass shootings in the U.S.
Rhode Island has passed restrictions in recent years that include measures to ban firearms from school grounds and close the “straw purchasing” loophole that had allowed people to buy guns for someone else. But bills that would ban high-capacity ammunition magazines and assault weapons have been bottled up in committee, in part because the overwhelmingly Democratic chamber includes many lawmakers who have opposed the measures, citing their support for the Second Amendment.
In Connecticut, gun violence legislation supported by both parties swiftly followed after 20 children and six staff members were shot and killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012. But additional gun control measures stalled this year in the Democratic-led General Assembly, in large part because of a short legislative session and threats by Republicans to hold up legislation through a filibuster.
Democratic Gov. Ned Lamont said Wednesday he’s uncertain whether he will call a special session on the bills. They would put limits on bulk purchases of firearms and require the registration of so-called ghost guns, untraceable firearms that can be assembled at home.
“I think it’s become an incredibly partisan argument right now in our society,” Lamont said. “It wasn’t that way, you know, 30, 40 years ago. So that is disturbing, even in a state like Connecticut, where after Sandy Hook we had strong bipartisan support.”

This company by Gautam Adani is Asia's best-performing IPO
India’s Adani Wilmar Ltd. is an outlier among Asia’s newly listed stocks. The food company has almost tripled since its debut while most newcomers are trading under water.
Shares in the firm, a joint venture between the group controlled by Asia’s richest person Gautam Adani and Singapore’s Wilmar International Ltd., have outperformed 121 Asian initial public offerings worth over $100 million this year. Almost two-thirds of the region’s new listings are in the red as rising interest rates and the war in Ukraine take a toll.
The Monetary Authority of Singapore and Nippon Life India were among investors in Adani Wilmar’s IPO, which makes Fortune brand cooking oils, wheat flour, rice, pulses, sugar and other food products. The firm said it would use part of the funds in the $486 million offering to expand facilities, repay loans and make strategic acquisitions.
The company is expected to “continue to gain market share on account of strong distribution network, diversified product portfolio, market leadership in key categories, focus on rural market, new product launches and strong parentage,” said Vikrant Kashyap, an analyst at KR Choksey.
The strong performance bodes well for Adani, one of Asia’s busiest dealmakers, who’s expanding his reach after years of focusing on coal and infrastructure-related plays. The tycoon’s move to diversify into new areas like data centers and digital services has paid off, after he capped a run of some 32 acquisitions in the past year.
The JV, which paid off debt with funds from the IPO, gets “significant benefit” from its parents, Kashyap wrote in a note this month, which recommended the stock as accumulate. Expected acquisitions will lead to a gain in market share, he added. The firm recently announced the purchase of several brands, including the Kohinoor cooking brand for the India region.
Other stocks linked to Adani have also done well. Adani Power Ltd., up more than 200% this year, is the top performer among members of the S&P BSE 500 index. Adani Green Energy Ltd., up 65% year-to-date, is the fifth-best performer even as the firm has no analyst coverage. | https://www.hindustantimes.com/business/this-company-by-gautam-adani-is-asia-s-best-performing-ipo-101653569347338.html | 2022-05-26T14:05:55Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/business/this-company-by-gautam-adani-is-asia-s-best-performing-ipo-101653569347338.html | false | 6 |

Ruth Davidson: Boris Johnson is treating country like fools over partygate
In her newspaper column, the former Scottish Tory leader has called on MPs to act following the Sue Gray report into Downing Street lockdown parties.
Boris Johnson is treating the country “like fools”, Ruth Davidson has said, following Sue Gray’s report into partygate.
The senior civil servant’s report, released on Wednesday, outlined drunkenness and partying at Downing Street while the country was under strict coronavirus lockdowns in 2020 and 2021.
Ms Gray said “senior leadership” should “bear responsibility” for the scandal which saw officials drink so much they were sick, sing karaoke and verbally abuse security and cleaning staff.
The Prime Minister, his wife Carrie, and Chancellor Rishi Sunak were issued fixed penalty notices for their involvement earlier this year – now Mr Johnson has insisted he “overwhelmingly” believes he should continue to lead the country.
But in her Evening Standard column, former Scottish Tory leader Ruth Davidson has urged Tory MPs to get rid of their leader following his “incomprehensible” actions.
She wrote: “I have made no secret of the fact I’ve been pretty appalled at the very idea that those imposing the harshest and most restrictive laws ever imposed on our country in peacetime, didn’t abide by those same laws themselves.
“I have found it incomprehensible that a prime minister asking for so much sacrifice from so many, would not just preside over, but participate in, such flagrant and widespread rule breaking.
“For me, if you aren’t leading by example in a time of national crisis, then you aren’t leading at all.”
Her views is in contrast to current Scottish Tory leader, and MP, Douglas Ross, who insisted Mr Johnson should remain as Prime Minister because of the war in Ukraine.
However, he said an investigation by the Privileges Committee could change his mind if it found Mr Johnson to have knowingly misled MPs.
Ms Davidson said it was “not acceptable” for Mr Johnson to be a “lawbreaker” before standing up in the Commons to “lie” about it.
She continued: “To have the Government – from the Prime Minister down – seek to explain away many of these events as leaving dos that were simply an extension of the working day treats the country like fools.
“People at home know that leaving dos weren’t allowed under the rules. They know that they, and ordinary people like them, across this country couldn’t even say goodbye to a dying relative, while those in power decided a press officer getting a new job was reason enough to party.
“The goings on in Downing Street at a time of national crisis were unforgiveable. And I do not doubt that those who lost so many and sacrificed so much will not forgive.
“Why Conservative MPs are sitting on their hands, I do not know.”

SAN FRANCISCO, May 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Hagens Berman urges Upstart Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: UPST) investors with losses in excess of $500,000 to submit your losses now.

Upstart Holdings, Inc. (UPST) Securities Fraud Class Action:
The litigation focuses on Upstart's past claims that it's not exposed to material balance sheet risk, its proprietary AI algorithm "enables a superior loan product with improved economics that can be shared between consumers and lenders," and it "leverage[s] the power of AI to more accurately quantify the true risk of a loan."
The complaint alleges Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) Upstart's AI model could not adequately account for macroeconomic factors such as interest rates that impact the market-clearing price for loans; (2) as a result, Upstart was experiencing negative impacts on its conversion rate; and, (3) as a result, Upstart was reasonably likely to use its balance sheet to fund loans.
Investors began to learn the truth on May 9, 2022, when Upstart announced poor Q1 2022 financial results, slashed revenue outlook, and disclosed a whopping $604 million of loans residing on its balance sheet – an amount that is more than twice that held as of Dec. 31, 2021. During the earnings call that day, management disclosed it was using company capital as a "funding buffer for core personal loans in periods of interest rate fluctuation where the market clearing price is in flux."
This news drove the price of Upstart shares crashing 56% lower on May 10, 2022, wiping out over $3 billion of value, and resulted in a slew of analyst downgrades and target price reductions.
"We're focused on investors' losses and whether Upstart misrepresented the effectiveness of its algorithm and the degree to which it was insulated from credit risk," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.

Sheku Bayoh inquiry: Police officer found chewing gum in search for knife
Pc Ashley Tomlinson continued to give evidence on Thursday morning and told the inquiry he was not able to find a knife while searching Mr Bayoh.
A police officer was unable to find a knife on Sheku Bayoh – with a search revealing he was carrying a packet of chewing gum and a mobile phone, the inquiry into his death heard today.
Giving evidence on Thursday morning, Pc Ashley Tomlinson said he had been asked by colleague Pc Craig Walker to “check for a knife”.
The pair were responding to calls from members of the public about a black man acting “erratically” with a large blade in Hayfield Road, Kirkcaldy, Fife, on Sunday May 3 2015.
Mr Bayoh was placed in leg restraints and Pc Tomlinson told Angela Graham QC, senior counsel to the inquiry, he was then able to carry out a search.
Ms Grahame asked Pc Tomlinson what he did after Mr Bayoh’s legs were restrained.
He said: “I went to his side. I don’t know if it was left or right but I’ve gone to a side so that when we rolled Mr Bayoh on to his side, it gave me access to assist in the roll and carry out a search.”
Pc Tomlinson told the inquiry Mr Bayoh was rolled on to his left side.
He added: “Whatever side it was on, I searched the pocket of the opposite side.
Ms Grahame asked Pc Tomlinson what he was looking for.
Pc Tomlinson said: “A knife.”
He was then asked what he found.
Pc Tomlinson replied: “Chewing gum. That was in his right trouser pocket.
“There was also a gold mobile phone.
“I don’t remember that coming out of his pocket, so I don’t know if that was Mr Bayoh’s or a member of the public’s or one of the officer’s.”
Ms Grahame asked him if he had found a knife, with Pc Tomlinson saying he had not but did not have time to check Mr Bayoh’s other pocket.
Pc Tomlinson was asked about the position Mr Bayoh was in prior to being restrained with the leg straps.
He described it as a “press-up position” or a “bench press”.
Ms Grahame asked Pc Tomlinson how Mr Bayoh was able to throw off three officers restraining him.
She asked: “How was he managing to do that?”
Pc Tomlinson replied: “Just with like that press-up position.”
He said Mr Bayoh lost consciousness soon after being rolled on to his side, with officers starting CPR “almost immediately” after he stopped breathing.
The serving officer said Pc Walker told him he heard some of Mr Bayoh’s ribs break during procedure.
The inquiry, before Lord Bracadale, continues and will hear from Akhtar Ali, a member of the public, on Thursday afternoon before returning to Pc Tomlinson’s evidence.

LUBBOCK, Texas — KLBK Meteorologist Jack Maney has your Thursday morning weather update!
Today: Clear, warm, and calm. High of 86°. Winds W 10-15 MPH.
Tonight: A mild, calm night. Low of 59°. Winds S 5-10 MPH.
Tomorrow: Hotter temperatures build with breezy winds. High of 94°. Winds S 15-20 MPH.
We’ll have a nice, quiet day of weather for this Thursday, but the heat is about to build as we head into the weekend!
The upper level storm system that brought us our rain and storms earlier this week is pulling further and further east, and right on its heels is a strong ridge of high pressure that will settle in overhead for the next few days, promoting a strong warming trend through the end of the week. Today will be an overall calm day, with temperatures warming into the mid 80s and winds staying mostly light out of the west at 10 to 15 mph under clear skies. Great outdoor weather especially for fans of warmer temperatures!
Tonight, lows will fall to the upper 50s and lower 60s, warmer than this morning, and that will position us for additional warming for Friday. Temperatures will soar into the upper 90s for highs tomorrow under continued clear skies, and winds will be a bit stronger out of the south at 15 to 20 mph.
Over the weekend, temperatures will peak in the triple digits with 102 degrees expected on Saturday and 100 on Sunday. Winds will become quite gusty, and that will lead to elevated fire danger. Thankfully, we have gotten the grass to green up a bit, so wildfire fuels will be a bit less conducive, though hot, dry, and windy conditions could definitely promote rapid fire spread over the weekend. For any outdoor activities, be careful about causing sparks and also remember your heat safety precautions!
Another storm system will develop over the western US by early next week, and that will bring jet stream energy to our area by Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. Shower and thunderstorm chances will potentially return, though it is still much too early to determine specifics on intensity and location.
Have a great Thursday!

NEW YORK (AP)Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton is on the injured list for the fourth straight season.
Stanton was placed on the 10-day IL with right ankle inflammation Wednesday as the ailing Yankees made a flurry of roster moves less than an hour before their series finale against Baltimore.
”Feel like we got good news,” manager Aaron Boone said after his team’s 2-0 victory. ”The Achilles is fine and no strain. So just feel like this is something that’s going to be short and feel like we should knock it out and not mess with it and maybe it becomes something else. So hopefully he got out in front of it a little bit and hopefully it’s just 10 days.”
New York also put struggling reliever Jonathan Loaisiga on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to May 23, with right shoulder inflammation – the latest blow to a depleted bullpen that had shined most of the season.
”Similar to what he dealt with last year. Probably not as severe. So, just feel like it’s probably something that as a precaution, we need to be smart here and take a couple weeks and hopefully that’s all it is,” Boone said. ”We believe it’s something hopefully minor. We’re going to treat him symptomatically.”
Joey Gallo was reinstated from the COVID-19 injured list and started at designated hitter. Third baseman Josh Donaldson remained on the COVID-19 list, and All-Star infielder DJ LeMahieu was out of the lineup for the second consecutive night because of left wrist discomfort.
LeMahieu was feeling better after a cortisone shot Tuesday and the team hopes to have him back Thursday night at AL East rival Tampa Bay.
”I’d say it’s a possibility,” Boone said. ”It’s still in there a little bit but I think we’re all encouraged. Today was a good day.”
Boone said he thought Donaldson was going to receive an IV, and the 2015 AL MVP was feeling better after his fever broke overnight. But the manager wasn’t sure if Donaldson would travel with the Yankees to Florida for the four-game set against the Rays, or possibly join the club sometime during the series.
The 32-year-old Stanton left Tuesday night’s 7-6, 11-inning win over the Orioles in the seventh and had an MRI on Wednesday. He is hitting .285 with 11 homers and 35 RBIs for the Yankees, who have the top record in the majors at 31-13.
”Adversity’s coming for you even in the best of seasons and you’ve got to be able to weather the storm and have other guys step up in different situations,” Boone said. ”Sometimes it’s in short spurts, sometimes it’s longer. That’s part of the grind of the 162-game season. We’re prepared to handle that. We look forward to handling that. The season doesn’t stop for anyone.”
Stanton played in 139 games last year, his highest total since 2018, and batted .273 with 35 homers and 97 RBIs. He was out from May 17-28 with a left quadriceps strain.
New York acquired Stanton, the 2017 NL MVP with Miami, before the 2018 season and he hit .266 with 38 homers and 100 RBIs during his first season in pinstripes.
He was sidelined from April 1 to June 18 in 2019 with a left biceps strain, then from June 26 until Sept. 19 with a sprained right knee. During the pandemic-shortened 2020 season, he was out from Aug. 9 until Sept. 15 with a strained left hamstring.
Since 2011, Stanton has been on the injured list in all but the 2014, 2017 and 2018 seasons. A four-time All-Star with the Marlins, he has a .269 career batting average with 358 homers and 928 RBIs.
The hard-throwing Loaisiga, a top setup man last year, is 1-2 with a 7.02 ERA in 18 appearances. He has walked 10 and given up 16 hits – including three homers – in 16 2/3 innings.
”I think the biggest thing with Lo, it’s been a few outings that have hurt him and when you do that early in the year as a reliever, it shows up that way,” Boone said. ”But even in those times, he’s not far off as far as his stuff and his repertoire, and really confident that it’ll click once he gets rolling.”
Pitching for the second consecutive day, Loaisiga was tagged with the loss in his most recent outing during the second game of Sunday’s doubleheader against the Chicago White Sox. He allowed four earned runs and four hits in two-thirds of an inning.
”After his last (appearance) he was just a little sore, so we’ve kind of slowed him down a little bit and just want to make sure obviously that he’s sound,” Boone said.
Loaisiga was 9-4 with five saves and a career-best 2.17 ERA in 57 games covering 70 2/3 innings last season. The right-hander missed 22 games and about 3 1/2 weeks in September with a shoulder strain.
Word of his injury this time came one day after the Yankees put All-Star closer Aroldis Chapman on the 15-day IL with left Achilles tendinitis, and just a few days after setup man Chad Green went down with a season-ending elbow injury that will require Tommy John surgery.
Veteran lefty Zack Britton is expected to miss the entire season after having Tommy John surgery last September.
”It’s also a great opportunity for people that we’re really excited about to step up and to step into roles,” Boone said. ”Look forward to getting Lo back and pitching how we know he’s capable of.”
New York also recalled left-hander JP Sears and right-hander David McKay from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Sears won his first major league start Wednesday night with five shutout innings.
Reserve catcher Rob Brantly was designated for assignment.

DAVOS, Switzerland (AP) — Corporate buzzwords. Technical jargon. Bold but vague pronouncements about climate change and Russia's war in Ukraine.
The World Economic Forum's annual gathering of CEOs and government leaders this week in Davos, the town in the Swiss Alps, may seem full of important but impersonal announcements.
So what do Davos-goers really think? Here are some voices from the meeting that ends Thursday:
WHAT ARE YOU DOING PERSONALLY TO FIGHT CLIMATE CHANGE?
NAME: Allen Blue
TITLE: Co-founder of LinkedIn
Living in Los Angeles, Blue said his family has gotten into the habit of conserving water, as much of California and the Western United States has been in a megadrought for years. They recycle, mostly eat vegetarian, and drive an electric car.
People are also reading…
“One of the things that has slowed the world’s response to climate change is that there was a story out there that it was the behaviors of consumers that made the difference," he said. “It’s not."
Rather, he said consumers' choices are limited when businesses only provide solutions or products that aren't environmentally friendly.
NAME: Francis Suarez
TITLE: Mayor of Miami
Suarez says his family has a Tesla and is putting solar panels on the roof of their house.
“As a public official, I feel it’s my responsibility to do what I can.”
NAME: Antonia Gawel
TITLE: The World Economic Forum's Geneva-based head of climate change policy
Gawel's day job is spent on environmental protection and fighting climate change. Outside of work, Gawel commutes by bike, uses public transportation and educates her two kids about the environment.
“My children are kind of the biggest advocates for these types of issues now. And the thing that I have to say that I love seeing is the schools are actually teaching them about this. My daughter, who is 8 years old, is being taught about wind power, about solar, about the challenges of fossil energy."
Gawel says such issues were “completely not something that was on our curriculum, at least when I was growing up."
HOW WILL THE RUSSIA-UKRAINE CRISIS CHANGE THE WORLD?
NAME: Hassan El Houry
TITLE: CEO of Kuwait-based National Aviation Services
“The Russia-Ukraine crisis, I think, sends a strong message to the world that the world will no longer accept aggression and war to solve problems,” El Houry said.
He added that “world also has to accept that there are many aggressors around the world that have been doing what they’re doing for years and decades and have gone unpunished. And we can’t have a double standard where we only single out Russia."
“There’s things happening in the Middle East everyday, things happening in East Asia every day in South America every day. And we need to shed the light on those as well and say ‘that needs to stop.' I’m not picking sides. I’m just saying that we need to solve those problems as well."
NAME: Francis Suarez
TITLE: Mayor of Miami
Suarez said the war has exposed how interconnected the world is, from the workforce to energy shocks to a looming food crisis because of dropped agricultural production from Ukraine.

Louis-Ryan Menezes' mother talks at Rayon Pennycook vigil
- Published
The mother of a teenager who was stabbed has spoken out about the ongoing "physical" impact of his death.
Louis-Ryan Menezes, 17, was killed in Northampton on 25 May 2018.
His mother, Cherri Curran, attended a vigil in Corby on Wednesday to remember another victim of knife crime, Rayon Pennycook, who died in the town on 25 May 2021.
"I don't feel that we can escape knife crime right now," Ms Curran said.
"That's why I feel that education needs to begin at home, to talk to our children about it.
"Find out where they are, what they are doing, who they are involved with, maybe they are being bullied, check in, [and] double check."
The vigil, which took place next to the touring Knife Angel statue, remembered victims of knife crime.
One of the organisers, Damian Carr from Hope Church in Corby, said he was "really pleased to see the turnout".
"There were so many of Rayon's friends and family members but there was also representation from right across the community, all the people here just showing lots of love to the family," he said.
Rayon Pennycook died from a single stab wound following an altercation.
In January, the teenager who stabbed him to death was jailed for a minimum term of 15 years.
Stefan Draca, 18, was found guilty of murder and of possessing a knife at Northampton Crown Court in December.
Louis-Ryan Menezes was attacked by Amari Smith, also 17 at the time, in Northampton in May 2018.
Smith was jailed for nine years and four months for manslaughter, later reduced to eight years.
"We miss him, it's physical, we can feel his loss, life will never be the same," Ms Curran said.
The 27ft-tall (8m) Knife Angel sculpture was created from more than 100,000 confiscated blades to raise awareness of the impact of violent crime.
It stood outside All Saints Church in Northampton until 14 May before moving on to Corby and will also be installed in Wellingborough.

Left-wing Colombian candidate plans drug war shakeup
Article content
BOGOTA — Leading Colombian presidential candidate Gustavo Petro is roundly critical of the U.S.-led war on drugs and has questioned the extradition of a drug kingpin, views that may herald a shakeup of how the Andean nation battles the narcotics industry.
Petro points out that despite billions of dollars in security spending and decades of U.S. pressure to reduce drug production, Colombia remains a top global supplier of cocaine and the site of bloody drug violence.
A left-wing senator who was once the mayor of Bogota, Petro has about 40% support ahead of the May 29 election. He is expected to face a runoff vote.

Petro decried the extradition this month of the accused leader of the Clan del Golfo cartel, Dairo Antonio Usuga. He also more broadly questions the effectiveness of extradition, a legal tool Washington considers a powerful deterrent to crime.
“Extradition: it merits a discussion – a review of the figures – to see if what’s been done for 40 years has worked or not; if a million dead Latin Americans – the majority Colombians and Mexicans – has been worth it,” the candidate told Semana magazine this month.
Petro, a former member of the M-19 guerrilla organization, has said no accused criminals should be extradited until they confess to their victims. He alleges that Colombia’s current authorities rushed the departure of Usuga, widely known as Otoniel, to avoid embarrassing revelations ahead of the election.

“Alias Otoniel wanted to say which generals in the police, in the military, which senators, which representatives, which governors, which ministers, which presidents had been allied with him,” Petro told a rally in the agricultural city of Fusagasuga.
Before his extradition, Otoniel’s lawyers argued he should be allowed to testify to a transitional justice tribunal and reveal links between the military and armed groups.
President Ivan Duque has promised Otoniel will be returned to Colombia to face further charges after serving time in the United States. The Interior Ministry did not respond to a request for comment on Petro’s allegations.
Current policies have failed to lower Colombia’s cocaine output. Between 2010 and 2020, the most recent year for which figures are available, potential production more than tripled to 1,010 metric tonnes, U.S. government data shows.

GREEN DRUG POLICY
If his third presidential bid is successful, Petro has said his priority for the bilateral relationship will be fighting climate change and that his administration will frame drug policy around the environment.
He opposes restarting aerial spraying of coca, the plant used to make cocaine, with the herbicide glyphosate and wants to substitute coca crops with legal marijuana.
Petro will likely face right-wing candidate Federico Gutierrez in a second round, which will take place if no candidate gets more than 50% of the vote on May 29.
Gutierrez, who has around 25% support, would present fewer challenges to the status quo. He does not oppose glyphosate spraying and backed Otoniel’s extradition.

He will coordinate with Washington to create a victims commission if he wins, Gutierrez told Colombian media in May, although he has also urged unspecified modifications to the bilateral relationship.
Petro might find common ground with the administration of U.S. President Joe Biden on crop substitution as well as implementation of the country’s 2016 peace deal with the FARC rebels, Oliver Kaplan, associate professor at the University of Denver’s Josef Korbel School of International Studies said.
In a sign Petro may be moderating some of his more strident policies as the election draws closer, the candidate has softened language around proposals to renegotiate free trade agreements, including a 2012 deal with the United States, in order to boost domestic agriculture.

Article content
Petro has also proposed the gradual elimination of tariffs on fertilizers, while levying them on food imports.
Senator Roy Barreras, a Petro ally, told a Colombian-American Chamber of Commerce event in April Petro is seeking “not a renegotiation, but a rethink” of free trade agreements.
‘RADICAL TURN’
The Justice Department would take a dim view of a ban on extradition, Kaplan said, though it remains to be seen how Petro’s objections may be translated into policy.
The prospect of potentially lengthy sentences far from home has long been one of the main weapons in the bilateral arsenal for fighting drug trafficking.
Washington sees extradition as a way to guarantee prosecution of criminals who might escape justice in their own countries through corruption. Colombian traffickers have historically hated extradition and mounted an out-and-out assault in protest of it in the late 1980s.

Article content
“A radical turn” in the approach to these issues could limit U.S. funding for the anti-drug fight and affect the general sense of security in Colombia, said Carolina Urrego, political science professor at Los Andes University.
The U.S. is already negotiating thorny diplomacy with once reliable partners Mexico and Brazil.
Anti-narcotics efforts have seen a shake up in Mexico, where President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador last year closed an elite unit working hand-in-hand with the U.S.
The Justice Department declined to comment about Petro’s extradition proposals and whether they would put at risk bilateral cooperation. The State Department did not respond.
U.S. Ambassador to Colombia Philip Goldberg said Washington would work with whoever won the election.
“We intend to maintain a strategic relationship with Colombia, it is very important for both countries, for the economies of both countries, for the security of both countries,” Goldberg recently told journalists. He declined to discuss specific proposals.

UVALDE, Texas (Border Report) — Throughout the day a steady stream of mourners have been bringing flowers to Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas.
They can’t cross police tape, so law enforcement come to them and carry the bouquets to a school marquee that is quickly becoming a shrine to the 19 children and two adults who were killed here.
A firefighter came with a wrapped bouquet. His head was down.
Entire families with children in tow have also come.
They even brought candles and white doves.
Elena Musquiz, 21, has lived her entire life in Sabinal, Texas, about 20 miles east of Uvalde.
On Wednesday she and her friend Amanda Welch made the trip bringing flowers.
They also brought Elena’s dog “Smokey” for comfort.
They held hands as a state trooper accepted the flowers and “thanked them.”
They both said they never imagined such a tragedy could happen in this small town they love.
“I’ve lived here my whole live. I’ve known this whole community forever. And you kind of just see this stuff all of the news everywhere else and for it to happen on a random day that no one thought ever could happen and to a bunch of babies,” Musquiz told Border Report.
Amanda works at a hair salon and home-schools her 11-year-old son.
“It’s just as easily they could not have been home-schooled so it’s scary for the entire community. It’s sad for everyone involved,” she said. | https://www.mytwintiers.com/border-report-tour/steady-stream-of-mourners-lay-flowers-at-robb-elementary-school/ | 2022-05-26T14:23:23Z | https://www.mytwintiers.com/border-report-tour/steady-stream-of-mourners-lay-flowers-at-robb-elementary-school/ | false | 17 |

Cardiff City News
2 Cardiff City players who face an uncertain few weeks ahead
Cardiff City will be eager to get going this summer and try and add to their squad.
The Sky Bet Championship campaign was a difficult one for them in 21/22 but they at least avoided relegation and can now look to try and build for the future this summer.
Steve Morison will have in mind the sort of side that he wants to build and he may well have a good idea now of which players he wants to keep and which he does not.
Indeed, with that in mind, we’re taking a look at two players at the club who could well face uncertain futures this summer and potentially leave the club altogether before the deadline at the end of the market…
Max Watters
Watters hasn’t been able to get himself into the side regularly since his arrival and it remains to be seen what is going to happen with him this summer.
He has spent time away from the club on loan and it feels as though that could well happen again, or even a full-time exit could be sanctioned.
He’s certainly a player who you could see leaving the club in the coming weeks.
Oliver Denham
Denham is a young defender who will be eager to show what he can do but it might be the case that he spends time away from the club on loan next season.
He’s a player that has potential but Cardiff have several players in front of him in the pecking order and playing time is what he needs to keep developing and improving.
That said, then, we could well see a loan seal of some sort sanctioned for him once the summer window is open for business. | https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/2-cardiff-city-players-who-face-an-uncertain-few-weeks-ahead/ | 2022-05-26T14:26:36Z | https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/2-cardiff-city-players-who-face-an-uncertain-few-weeks-ahead/ | true | 1 |

KUCHING: The mining sector in Sarawak is expected to generate investment worth RM6.7 billion, particularly in the midstream and downstream industries by 2030.
Minister of Urban Development and Natural Resources II Datuk Amar Awang Tengah Ali Hasan(pix) said the sector could create at least 5,300 job opportunities in various fields and expertise, besides an economic spin-off of more than RM3.5 billion a year.
“The Sarawak government has seen the capability of the mining sector in the state to be developed among the main economic sectors that can bring prosperity for the Sarawak people,” he said when winding up the debate on the motion of thanks to the Yang di-Pertua Negeri’s opening speech at the State Legislative Assembly here, today.
He said the state’s Post Covid-19 Development Strategy (PCDS) 2030 has set three key initiatives to drive the industry.
The initiatives comprised empowering the State Minerals Management Authority, reform mining policies as well as the regulatory framework, develop geological mapping and further streamline mining activities, and enhance downstream activities and business model to spur the mining industry.
Awang Tengah who is also Sarawak Deputy Premier said the state government had approved an allocation of RM15 million under the 12th Malaysian Plan to conduct a study on the existence of natural minerals resources in an area spanning 2,616,422 hectares that have not yet been explored to complete Sarawak’s preliminary mineral data.
“This data will assist the Sarawak government to identify the industrial potential of mineral-based resources,” he said.
He added that the Geoscience and Mineral Resources Division was set up under his ministry on Feb 22, 2022 to focus on the sector’s development, besides ensuring the implementation of existing action plans.-Bernama | https://www.thesundaily.my/home/mining-sector-can-generate-rm67-bln-investment-in-sarawak-NF9250285 | 2022-05-26T14:27:47Z | https://www.thesundaily.my/home/mining-sector-can-generate-rm67-bln-investment-in-sarawak-NF9250285 | true | 1 |

Aquaman Andromeda Will Get Multiple Eisner Nominations Next Year
I was pleased to see that Wonder Woman Historiawas nominated for a number of 2022 Eisner Awards. First I thought that it did great to get those many nods on the basis of its first book by Kelly Sue DeConnick and Phil Jimenez alone. And secondly I thought, oh in that case, Aquaman Andromeda is bound to get Eisner nominations next year too.
Writer Ram V and artist Christian Ward are both attending this weekend's MCM London Comic Con and I am hoping that they may be bringing some of it. Bleeding Cool understands that the first book is full of double page spreads with dense storytelling but set in an expansive and lushly realised world. People who have read previews have been describing it to me as Aquaman's Dark Knight or All-Star Superman.
DC Editor Chris Conroy tweeted "The good news is, AQUAMAN: ANDROMEDA #1 is very, very worth an "at the office until 8pm doing lettering notes" night. I hope you all take a chance on this one, because you will be rewarded."
Artist Christian Ward tweeted: "I think Aquaman Andromeda might be my prettiest book yet if I do say so. If you've missed me doing cosmic books like Invisible Kingdom or ODYC this one will scratch the same itch. Was so so happy when the team gave me the thumbs up to go bananas on the coral armour. Before I even knew what @therightram had in mind I sent him this, together with a bunch of Bob Peak art , in particular his art for Excalibur – I wanted to go full on psyche rock opera with it. once I read @therightram AMAZING pitch & learned more about what he had in mind, It was clear this wasn't going to be the usual Arthur Curry. In Ram's words he was going to be 'mythical' & 'ancient' so my approach changed. bringing in costumes from Bram Stokers Dracula & Dune. I knew i wanted coral to be a feature. @therightram had this idea that he might even look like an underwater Grecian statue and I wanted to add more life to that. The idea that life continues on around his stillness & a way to play to my visual strengths: Colour & organic form. For me tho, always, beyond everything else the inspiration comes from the story. Put me in the room, closed off from everything with a good story and ideas naturally come out"
Journalist Graeme McMillan tweeted "Holy sh-t, Aquaman: Andromeda is glorious. Just read a digital preview, and one of my first thoughts was that it'll look even more impressive in print. (It's the DC Black Label mini from Ram V and Christian Ward, whose art feels like the center of the whole thing. It's visually stunning, maybe my favorite thing he's done.) One of the original impulses behind Black Label was to create evergreen, continuity-free stories featuring DC characters — this 100% succeeds; I could see this becoming a perennial seller. One last thing about Andromeda: it'll demonstrate once again why Aditya Bidikar is one of the best letterers around right now. It's really playful, smart work that allows Ward's art to sing while communicating what it needs to with immediate clarity."
Bleeding Cool, of course, doesn't get digital previews from DC Comics. Not officially anyway. But let me see what I can do. Aquaman Andromeda #1 is scheduled for the 7th of June, with #2 currently on the books for September 2022.

Deep in the Pacific Ocean, at the farthest possible distance from any land, sits Point Nemo: the spaceship graveyard. Since the dawn of the space race, the nations of the world have sent their crafts there on splashdown, to sink beneath the silent seas. But there is something…else at Point Nemo. A structure never made by human hands. And that structure seems to be…waking up.

ISLAMABAD (AP) — The United Nations’ special rapporteur on human rights in Afghanistan on Thursday expressed concern over the deterioration of rights in the country and called on the ruling Taliban to reverse new restrictions on women.
Richard Bennet spoke to journalists at the end of an 11-day visit to Afghanistan, his first since being named last month to his post.
His visit came as the Taliban, who seized power when they overran the capital of Kabul in mid-August as the United States and NATO were in the final weeks of their withdrawal from Afghanistan, have started enforcing a sharply tougher line.
In recent weeks, they issued edicts requiring women to cover their faces except for their eyes, including women presenters on TV, and banned girls from attending school past the sixth grade.
At the same time, Afghanistan has seen persistent bombings and other attacks on civilians, often targeting the mainly Shiite Muslim ethnic Hazara minority. Most of the attacks have been claimed by the Islamic State group’s affiliate in the country, which is a bitter rival of the Taliban.
Bennett said Afghanistan’s de facto authorities — referring to the Taliban — have failed to acknowledge the magnitude and gravity of abuses being committed, many of them in their name, and their responsibility to address them and protect the entire population.
“I expressed serious concern about the deterioration of human rights across the country, and the erasure of women from public life is especially concerning,” Bennett told reporters. In a statement issued at the same time, he called on the Taliban to “immediately reverse policies and directives that negatively impact women.”
His comments follow a statement Tuesday from the U.N. Security Council that called on the Taliban to “swiftly reverse” restrictions limiting girls’ access to education and women’s employment, freedom of movement and “full, equal and meaningful participation in public life.”
The new edicts have brought the country closer to the harsh measures imposed by the Taliban when they first ruled Afghanistan from 1996 to 2001. At that time, they subjected women to overwhelming restrictions, banning them from education and participation in public life and requiring them to wear the all-encompassing burqa.
During his visit, Bennett held talks with Taliban leaders as well as toured the country, meeting civil society groups, rights activists and minority communities, including the Hazaras.
Speaking to the press, he called for investigations into the militant bombings targeting the Hazaras, other Shiites as well as Sufis, a mystical trend of Sunni and Shiite Islam that militants revile as heretical.
Such attacks “are becoming increasingly systematic in nature and reflect elements of an organizational policy,” he said, adding that they show “the hallmarks of crimes against humanity.”
On Wednesday, at least 14 people were killed in a series of explosions. In one, a bomb ripped through a mosque in Kabul where people were praying, killing five and wounding 22. In the northern city of Mazar-e Sharif, three minivans were hit by bombs, killing nine and wounding 15, all of them Shiites. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the minivan bombings.
Bennett also pointed to “a high number” of reports of intimidation, harassment, attacks, arrests and in some cases killing or disappearances by authorities targeting journalists, prosecutors and judges, as well as civil society for exercising their right to peaceful assembly and association.
Bennet said the Taliban stand at a crossroads, where either society would become more stable and a place where “every Afghan enjoys freedom and human rights — or it will become increasingly restricted.”
If the Taliban can meet benchmarks, including opening schools fully for girls, establishing a more representative administration and allowing dialogue, he said, “the risks of further instability and suffering in Afghanistan may be mitigated.” | https://www.thetelegraph.com/news/article/UN-official-expresses-concern-on-rights-in-17200376.php | 2022-05-26T14:29:35Z | https://www.thetelegraph.com/news/article/UN-official-expresses-concern-on-rights-in-17200376.php | false | 12 |
BILLINGS — Memorial Stadium in Great Falls will be full this weekend with competitors and fans for the 2022 Class B and C state track meets with temperatures predicted to be in the mid 70s Friday and low 60s Saturday.
The meet opens Friday at Memorial Stadium in Great Falls with the C girls shot put at 9 a.m. Races are scheduled to begin at 10:30 a.m. both days.
Schedule can be found here.
Here is more on what to watch as the meet gets underway:
Defending team champions: Fort Benton (boys); Seeley-Swan (girls)
Returning individual champions: Cameron Brusven, Plentywood (boys javelin); Teagan Erickson, Saco (girls high jump); Jasiah Hambira, Lustre Christian (boys high jump); Owen Hoag, Seeley-Swan (boys 400); Annie Kaul, Plentywood (girls 3,200); Walker McDonald, Seeley-Swan (boys shot put, boys discus); Sariah Maughan, Seeley-Swan (girls 400, 800); Lindsey Paulson, Belt (girls 1,600); Sorren Reese, Superior (girls javelin); Brooke Reuter, Savage (girls 100, 200); Teigan Taylor, Fairview (girls pole vault).
Overview: The Seeley-Swan Blackhawks girls are aiming for a third consecutive Class C girls title. They are led by sisters senior Sariah and junior Emily Maughan. Emily’s recent Western C winning jump of 17 feet, 11.75 surpassed the state meet record of 17-7.5 so watch to see if that’s still standing at the end of the weekend. Meanwhile, Sariah Maughan has carried the weight of expectations all season long after breaking the girls 800 state record (2 minutes, 14.86 seconds) and adding an individual title in the 400 last season in addition to winning relay performances. She’ll compete this week in the 400, 800 and 1,600 (where she was also the 2019 champion).
Savage sophomore Brooke Reuter also has competed this season under expectations after breaking both the 100 (12.78) and 200 (25.51) records. However in the sprints, Reuter faces challenges from West Yellowstone senior Emmie Collins and Manhattan Christian junior Jadyn VanDyken. Van Dyken is also the only one to have beaten Saraiah Maughan in the 400 this season after winning the race at the Western C divisional.
Belt senior Lindsey Paulson (1,600) and Plentywood junior Annie Kaul (3,200) will meet again in the distance races and combined with Maughan should make for interesting races. Paulson is the two-time defending cross country champion and Kaul’s chase down on the home stretch in 2021 to win the 3,200 was one of the most memorable of that meet. But Kaul is also taking on one of the most ambitious programs of the state meet with planned entrances into the 100 and 300 hurdles, pole vault, and both long-distance races.
In the boys distance events, Manhattan Christian sophomore Oren Arthun finished runner-up last season to Richey-Lambert’s Sam Smith. Smith graduated and Arthun has raced to the top of the state cross country podium and posted the top times this season in the 1,600 and 3,200.
Fans from Scobey will want to keep an eye on the boys pole vault, as both seniors Devon Southland and J.P. Braut cleared 13 feet within four days of each other roughly a month ago and have been tied for the top mark in Class C ever since. However, their sophomore teammate Ty Leischner stood atop the Eastern C divisional podium so in an event as difficult as pole vault, it’s anyone’s guess who ultimately ends up with the state title.
Earlier in the season, Plentywood senior Cameron Brusven was ranked in the top 10 in the nation in boys javelin. He looks to defend his title with a season’s best currently over 30 feet further than the next best qualifier and he launched another throw over 195 feet in the Eastern C divisional. If he keeps that up, the state meet record of 193-9 held by Superior’s Logan Labbe from 2003 could come down. Brusven also comes in with the top mark this season in long jump and won the Eastern C triple jump.
The Seeley-Swan boys are led by defending champions senior Walker McDonald (shot put, discus) and junior Owen Hoag (400). McDonald and Noxon senior Cade VanVleet finished first and second respectively last season in shot put and have traded wins throughout much of this season so expect to see both of them chasing podium spots again. | https://406mtsports.com/high-school/track-and-field/guide-to-the-2022-class-c-state-track-and-field-meet/article_e56f9f8c-87c3-5588-ac89-38aa548c73eb.html | 2022-05-26T14:30:20Z | https://406mtsports.com/high-school/track-and-field/guide-to-the-2022-class-c-state-track-and-field-meet/article_e56f9f8c-87c3-5588-ac89-38aa548c73eb.html | false | 1 |
Williams mustered six points (2-2 FG, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, three blocks and one steal over 27 minutes in Wednesday's Game 5 win at Miami.
Two of Time Lord's three blocks came via giant leaps at corner-three shooters. Inside the key, Williams still looks a bit tentative as he deals with his on-going left knee issues. But Wednesday's 27 minutes of run were encouraging. Time Lord put a scare into Celtics fans when he wasn't present for the opening tip of the second half. Per Grant Williams, who briefly replaced Robert Williams, Time Lord just needed some extended time in the restroom. Hopefully Robert Williams can rest his knee, adjust his pregame meal and play more minutes on Friday for Game 6 in Boston.

South Africa COVID vaccine hesitancy due to side-effect fears- survey
CAPE TOWN (Reuters) - Fears over the possible side effects and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines have been the main drivers of hesitancy among thousands of South Africans, a government-backed online survey showed on Thursday.
South Africa, where around half of its 40 million adults have had at least one dose of the coronavirus vaccine, has been the worst hit by the pandemic across Africa, in terms of confirmed infections and deaths.
It has, like many countries in Africa and on other continents, struggled to convince sceptics to get vaccinated.
Among the 18-34 age group, hesitancy was highest, at 39%, the survey taken in October and November found, with the white population the most likely race group to eschew the vaccine, at 48% of respondents.
Conducted by the University of Johannesburg and the Human Sciences Research Council, the fifth round of the survey which started two years ago involved 6,633 participants.
"What this analysis has demonstrated is that the majority of those that express hesitation about taking the vaccine are not anti-science, but are expressing rational and legitimate doubts," a presentation on the survey's findings said.
"This suggests that public health messaging needs to continue to provide information that may reassure this group about side-effects and the effectiveness of the vaccine."

Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT | Taxi operators plying different routes within Kampala city are living in uncertainty about the future of their business, due to the gradual decline in the number of people using taxis.
The taxi operators say the number of people using taxis dropped since the government lifted the ban on public transport that was imposed as one of the COVID-19 containment measures.
According to the operators, this explains their failure to increase transport fares despite the hiked fuel prices. About a month ago, public transporters announced new transport fares to help them cope with the high fuel costs.
Baston Kiyagga, a taxi guide at Makerere stage, says that they hardly make more than 2 trips, which has affected their earnings. Previously, they would record at least 10 trips from this stage.
Kiyagga says that they decided to merge three stages just to mobilize the numbers because filling one vehicle was taking longer than usual.
Hamis Luyimbazi, a driver at Buziga stage, says that they would have wished to increase the fares because of the escalating fuel prices but they have held back because of the low passengers. He explains that the competition for the few passengers has complicated the situation making the transport industry hectic.
On average, a 14-seater taxi now takes over 1 hour to fill up at most of the stages visited by URN in the city center. Most of the operators spend their time sleeping or chatting away due to the limited number of travelers.
Badru Lubega, the chairperson Mukono stage, says that due to the increase in fuel prices, they were forced to increase the fares by Shillings 500, which he believes has kept away travelers.
According to Lubega, travelers now opt for vehicles loading on the streets, which charge less. He says as a result, the vehicles on the stage have reduced from 70 to 40 vehicles due to the low number of travelers.
Saad Ssali has been working at Mpererwe stage since 1990. He says that he has never experienced such passenger numbers, adding that their trips have reduced by half.
Some of the passengers interviewed by URN revealed that they resorted to alternative means of transport since the COVID-19 pandemic affected their incomes.
Tasha Nalule told URN that these are tough times that require stringent financial discipline to survive, adding that she looks for every possible way to save especially on transport.
Hussein Ndibubi, says that although the fuel prices are very high, taxi operators should have mercy on them because they are equally affected by the high inflation in the country yet money doesn’t easily come by nowadays.

Bills-Rams Highlights Most Bet Games for NFL Week 1 Action
zackcooksports@gmail.com
There’s already been plenty of action placed on Week 1 of the NFL season, with the Buffalo Bills visiting the Los Angeles Rams seeing the most tickets.
Below you can find the top-three games that have seen the most bets ahead of Week 1 from the BetMGM Sportsbook.
1. Buffalo Bills (+1) vs Los Angeles Rams (-1) Total: 52.5
That shouldn’t exactly be a surprise in what many people expect to be a shootout, with both offenses looking to once again be dynamic and each side having Super Bowl aspirations.
The Bills and Rams last met in 2020 and that contest didn’t disappoint either, with Buffalo coming out on top 35-32 at home.
These two high-scoring teams are likely going to be popular amongst the public during this season and that should be expected with both teams boasting top-five odds to win the Super Bowl this season.
Buffalo won the AFC East with a record of 11-6 last season, while the Rams did the same in the NFC West at 12-5.
In terms of where the public is gravitating right now, 81% of tickets for the spread are coming in on the Buffalo Bills, who also boast 91% of the handle.
It’s also unsurprising to see the public being heavy on the over 52.5, with 86% of the handle falling there along with 54% of the tickets.
2. New Orleans Saints (-4) vs Atlanta Falcons (+4) Total: 42.5
The Saints and Falcons met twice last season, which saw Atlanta defeat New Orleans 27-25, followed by the Saints returning the favor and beating the Falcons 30-20.
We know that these two teams are capable of putting up points when they collide, which should make bettors even more intrigued by this matchup that’s currently set with a low total.
There are a fair amount of unknowns for both sides of this game on offense right now, but we should get more clarity during OTA’s and preseason action.
As of this moment, the public has faith in Dennis Allen and the Saints on the spread, where 88% of tickets and 89% of the handle are on New Orleans for Week 1 at -4.
Even with these two clubs having a history against one another as NFC South rivals, there’s an expectation from the public that this could be more of a defensive battle where not a lot of points are scored.
Currently, 80% of bets and 75% of the handle are on the under 42.5, which might not be a huge surprise with a good Saints defense and an improving one in Atlanta.
The Falcons lead the all-time season series 54-52.
3. Philadelphia Eagles (-3.5) vs Detroit Lions (+3.5) Total: 46.5
The last time that Philadelphia and Detroit met was back in 2021 when the Eagles blew out the Lions by a score of 44-6.
The Lions and Eagles both appear to be teams that should make strides in the 2022 NFL season, which makes this Week 1 matchup one that should intrigue bettors.
Philadelphia went out this offseason and acquired star wideout A.J. Brown, and this will likely mark his season debut in what should be a more dynamic Eagles offense.
There are some interesting trends that you’re already seeing with this contest, with the public backing the spread, but also the Lions on the moneyline.
However, 62% of bets and 85% of the handle are siding with the Eagles on the spread at -3.5 compared to 71% of moneyline bets on the Lions, with the Eagles owning 53% of the handle.
In terms of the total, which is currently set at 46.5, there’s currently a heavy lean on the over, with 88% of bets and 78% of the handle.

Eleven newborn babies have died after a fire that broke out in the neonatal department at the Mame Abdou Aziz Sy Dabakh Hospital in the western Senegalese city of Tivaouane, said the country’s president Macky Sall on Thursday.
“I just learned, with pain and consternation, the death of 11 newborn babies,” Sall said in a tweet.
“I express my profound compassion to their mothers and their families,” he added.
CNN has contacted the hospital, but has not yet heard back.
In a statement later Thursday, the country’s health ministry said an emergency response plan had been put in place and “arrangements are being made for the assistance of the families of the victims.”
The ministry’s statement added that Health Minister Abdoulaye Diouf Sarr, who is attending the World Health Assembly in Geneva had cut short his trip and would return to Senegal today.
Senegalese Minister of Regional Planning and Local Government, Cheikh Bamba Di?ye, described the fatal incident as “horrific and unacceptable” while urging a probe of the country’s health systems.

Mind the cliff edge in Rishi Sunak’s cost of living help
Rishi Sunak's £15bn package of measures to ease the UK's cost-of-living pressures is - like much of what he did during the Covid-19 crisis - not very Tory. First, he's funding it by nicking Labour's plan to levy a windfall tax on oil and gas producers, at a rate of 25%. And he's chosen to make it more onerous than what Labour was proposing, and to leave it in place till the end of 2025. The tax is expected to raise around £5bn this year, a couple of billion more than what Labour's would have reaped.
He's also going further than Labour in another way, by "urgently" reviewing whether the windfall tax - what he euphemistically called a "targeted energy profits levy" - should be extended to companies that generate power from nuclear or wind.
They are enjoying exceptionally large profits because the benchmark price for the power they sell is determined by the inflated price of gas. This additional windfall tax would apply only to those generators whose supply deals are not based on so-called contracts for difference that put a ceiling on the profits they can garner. Even so, both the announced windfall tax and the one that may follow have outraged some Tory MPs and ministers, which see them as anti-capitalist and inimical to the imperative of encouraging investment in new generating capacity.

If, for example, international investors were to react by investing less in the UK, that would damage the supply side of the economy - and Mr Sunak explicitly said in the Commons today that expanding the supply side, especially in energy, was part of a three pronged strategy to reduce surging inflation. That said, the chancellor has announced generous tax allowances for investment in oil and gas schemes - what he calls super deductions - which would see 91% of the cost of the investments recouped from tax credits. As for the £15bn package of support for struggling households, it includes a new £200 gift to all energy customers, a lump sum of £650 (payable in two tranches) to more than eight million households on assorted benefits, plus £300 to all pensioners, and £150 to those on disability benefits. Of this £15bn, two thirds of it will be funded by borrowing - which again would not be seen as supremely Tory - and 79% of it will go to what the chancellor calls vulnerable households (namely to those on means-tested benefits, to those receiving disability benefits and all pensioners).
With the typical annual energy bill increasing £1500 between March and October, this represents significant help for the poorest and most vulnerable.
For example, a low income household that includes a pensioner and a disabled person would receive one-off payments totaling £1300 - and that rises to the full £1500 when the £200 contribution to energy bills announced in March is included (and at the risk of mangling your brain, that £200 was a loan in March but was today converted into a gift or grant). It is clear, therefore, that these measures will help many households in dire circumstances. But some £4bn of the £15bn is going to those not regarded by the chancellor as vulnerable.
And as is inevitable when the payments are through substantial lump sums, those earning just above the means tested thresholds will feel very hard done by, because they won't receive the £650.
There is sheer cliff edge between those being helped by the chancellor and those who don't qualify. As for other risks, one is that the Bank of England will see the package as more of a stimulus than it expected, and will push up interest rates more than would otherwise have been the case - which would hurt millions of households, businesses and even the Treasury, whose interest bill would increase significantly. Finally, it is important to remember that the chancellor has simply offset some of the rise in costs we all face.
Prices are rising fast on pretty much everything we consume and need to live, well beyond energy. Today, Mr Sunak has reduced the number of households facing catastrophic hardship, but pretty much everyone in the UK is still going to be poorer - and in some cases a lot poorer - for at least a year, and probably longer. | https://www.itv.com/news/2022-05-26/mind-the-cliff-edge-in-rishi-sunaks-cost-of-living-help | 2022-05-26T14:57:40Z | https://www.itv.com/news/2022-05-26/mind-the-cliff-edge-in-rishi-sunaks-cost-of-living-help | true | 1 |
Vampire survival game V Rising has added an offline mode for players, as well as local server functionality and several bug fixes.
Yesterday (May 25), developer Stunlock Studios released patch 0.5.41448 for V Rising. While there’s no new content, the patch does add offline play to the game – a big win for players who find competing against other vampires too stressful.
This means that fans can now play V Rising without an internet connection – to do so, Stunlock Studios says to change Steam to offline mode before opening the game.
The patch also adds local servers to the game. To get V Rising working on LAN servers, players must tick the “LAN Server” box in the Direct Connect to Server window, or alternatively use the “ConnectLan” console command.
Besides an offline mode and LAN servers, the latest patch includes “several fixes to the ‘Authentication Error’ that hindered players from getting back onto specific servers,” as well as several new admin commands for multiplayer servers.
Other fixes include addressing an exploit that was allowing players to send the same servant on multiple hunts at once, while salvaging cloaks will no longer provide a sneaky way to find extra crafting supplies. Players will now also be told they cannot store soul shards in containers, after people were getting confused about why they were disappearing when they weren’t built in a castle.
It’s been a busy week for the game since it launched to become one of this month’s most-played games on Steam. Stunlock Studios recently shared that V Rising has already sold 1million copies, and the survival game is now playable on Steam Deck and Linux platforms.
In other gaming news, EA has told employees that it will not make public statements supporting abortion or transgender rights. | https://www.nme.com/en_au/news/gaming-news/v-rising-adds-offline-mode-and-local-servers-3234460 | 2022-05-26T14:58:53Z | https://www.nme.com/en_au/news/gaming-news/v-rising-adds-offline-mode-and-local-servers-3234460 | true | 4 |

It's always a good start for anything horror related when you immediately have very strong opinions on who should live and die. The Quarry cast have definitely nailed the 'teens in a summer camp' vibe of a high death count slasher movie, and within moments of meeting them I have a very clear idea of who I will rip the power cable out mid save to keep alive, and who I'll use like a murder canary to test caves for serial killers.
It's dangerous to go alone
While this playable horror movie isn't giving too much away just yet, this is what I've got from playing The Quarry so far: there's a bunch of kids out for one last summer party before college, staying at a campsite in a deserted, isolated quarry. Which definitely hasn't caused problems for anyone in the past... There's a local witch legend that might kill them, a creepy cabin housing a mysterious voyeristic stranger that might kill them, local hillbilly types that might kill them, and some sort of monster in the tree line that just wants to give them hugs… sorry, kill them. And that's assuming they don't all just horney themselves to death, after an opening game of truth and dare leads to some kissing that manages to alienate, arouse, disappoint, or anger just about everyone at the campsite no matter how you play it.
The amount of variation in the choices you make is impressive in the small section I tried (lasting somewhere between 45-55 minutes depending on what you choose). I played it twice through and found scenes layered with branches and outcomes that aren't immediately obvious. Not only are small choices potentially impactful, but some not insubstantial gameplay can be opened up or shut out, according to what you choose. I was expecting to tick through the usual 'other option cutscenes' on a replay, but found a surprising amount of significant variation. That game of truth and dare can feature a whole chunk of stuff you can miss out if you play it a certain way, while another section can see a character die a horrible death in a sequence of gameplay that just doesn't happen if you go along a certain path.
All these options feel less obvious as well, which I like. While Until Dawn and the Dark Pictures tended to have quite clear 'this will get you killed' decision making, The Quarry, so far, has more subtlety. Quite innocuous choices see you gain or lose favor with various cast members, while an unobvious choice can open up that entire sequence where a character can die, or skip it in a way that would mean you never even knew it was there. It's a game that feels aware of issues in previous SuperMassive games like, for example, when you knew a decision was going to be bad and had to do it anyway. Or when you could die without warning because SURPRISE BUTTON PROMPTOHGODPRESSITNOWPRESSIIIIIT… ah shit, they're dead.
Press X to die
Now there's a more nuanced and unpredictable feel to choices that, so far, doesn't feel unfair – poisoned chalice choices are still obviously going to piss someone off, but so can more innocent ones which feel both more natural, and indicative of who that person is. I felt less like I'd been sideswiped with a 'they will remember that' trap, and more like I'd learned more about that character or relationship. Options are also indicated by a clear tone, like 'mocking' or 'sympathetic', along with a brief summation of what a character will actually say, which makes it feel a little less like a dice roll as to how someone will take something.
It helps that various cast members play their roles well, with performances and writing working to deliver what's needed in scenes that can branch off at any point, be cut short, or need to include or remove entire sections depending on events and actions. I was genuinely surprised just how much you can cut out of the campfire scene with a fairly minor decision and not have it all collapse. The Quarry does have a clunky feel at the start – there's a few lines that come across as if every cast member said them in different rooms before being sliced into a single scene by Supermassive – but I'm assuming that's because of edits made to present a more self-contained preview. Everyone turns up, clearly already introduced in what I played and I'd clearly missed out on some introductions.
I felt a lot more in control overall, or at least less likely to be bushwhacked by a sudden 'press X to avoid death' prompt. Although what I played was early on and Until Dawn famously made it fairly easy to keep everyone alive until the last hour, at which point almost anything you did killed someone. Without spoilers, the big action sequence of the preview I played saw people chased through a forest, while I tapped sticks and buttons at prompts to avoid them falling or make choices in a way that felt engaging without being stressful; more like The Quarry was working with me to have fun instead of trying to catch me out. When it comes to deaths, the one I found was clearly telegraphed once you made the choice that caused it and, if I'm completely honest, I had to really put the work in to get the victim killed. This is also where I discovered the new lives system in The Quarry – you get three, and if you lose a character you can spend a life to replay the last scene to save them. That feels, again, like a nice way to make things fun without completely removing the threat (it's a big cast, so those three lives will have to be very tactically applied).
It does all feel very Until Dawn again, which I like. Right down to the premonitions you can unlock, this time via tarot cards, to gain a few seconds of garbled video that can give you a warning of some future threat if you recognise the clues. Like Supermassive's original playable horror love letter, this feels like it's dialing into all the enjoyable genre pillars of '80s style slasher movies – lots of flinching behind a cushion jump scares as slightly annoying teenagers proclaim 'there's nothing out there' while obviously being watched from a distance. From the dark-synth opening music, to the campfire chats and creepy locals that might not be evil (but definitely are), this exudes a strong 'who will survive and what will be left of them' energy that bodes well for the full game.
If The Quarry is as silly, bloody, and self aware as my brief time playing suggests, I will happily meet the Class of Victim High 22 on June 10 and lead them into as many ominous dark doorways as it takes. | https://www.gamesradar.com/the-quarry-is-shaping-up-to-be-until-dawn-2-and-i-am-fine-with-that/ | 2022-05-26T15:01:02Z | https://www.gamesradar.com/the-quarry-is-shaping-up-to-be-until-dawn-2-and-i-am-fine-with-that/ | true | 3 |

NEWARK, Del., May 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- ILC Dover, the leading provider of spacesuits since the Apollo era, today announced that it was selected to be one of two providers of Boeing's Ascent/Entry Suit (AES) for the company's Commercial Crew Program and has developed a bespoke AES spacesuit for CST-100 Starliner crews.
"We are proud to utilize our expertise to create a new AES for the Starliner spacecraft," said Patty Stoll, President of Space Systems and Engineered Solutions at ILC Dover. "Having worked with the Boeing team on the Starliner's landing airbags, which provide a safe, cushioned arrival to Earth from space, we understood the importance of delivering another quality product for this program."
The Boeing AES is based off ILC Dover's commercial Launch, Entry, and Abort suit, SOL™. ILC Dover worked with Boeing to tailor SOL for the Starliner spacecraft to provide protection for astronauts during the most critical phases of spaceflight, including launch, docking, re-entry and landing. With over 50 years of spacesuit experience, the AES suit was designed to provide maximum mobility to operate, enter and exit the spacecraft, as well as provide protection for astronauts in case of an emergency.
"Our success is measured by those we've helped return to Earth safely for over 50 years of space travel and we will continue to provide spacesuits and soft solutions that will keep astronauts safe in the harsh environment of space," said Stoll.
Working with ILC Dover's in-house fashion designer, the cover layer of the spacesuit was designed with a unique look for Starliner crew members.
A replica of the Starliner AES will be on display on Florida's Space Coast at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex's new attraction called Gateway: The Deep Space Launch Complex. ILC Dover and Boeing worked with Adam Savage, television personality and longtime special effects designer and fabricator, to create the replica.

Dove, Mondelēz International, PepsiCo and S.Pellegrino Among First Brands Engaging More Consumers with Immersive, Shoppable Storytelling on Instacart
SAN FRANCISCO, May 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Instacart today announced two new advertising solutions that bring together the best of inspirational storytelling and action: shoppable video ads and enhanced shoppable display ads. These new formats expand Instacart's ad product suite with inspiring experiences to give brands a more immersive way to storytell, engage and drive sales. Shoppable video and shoppable display enable CPG brands to shorten the user journey from awareness and product discovery directly to purchase – all within one rich media unit. Advertisers can now promote engaging, targeted, creative content to consumers as they shop from their favorite retailers on Instacart. Dove, Mondelēz International, PepsiCo and S.Pellegrino are among the first CPG brands to pilot Instacart's shoppable video and shoppable display products.
"Advertisers choose Instacart because we've built a platform with high-intent consumers, unparalleled scale of retailers, and closed-looped measurement, all of which drives meaningful results for our brand partners," said Ali Miller, Vice President of Ads Product at Instacart. "We designed our new shoppable ad products to create more brand storytelling opportunities for CPGs, help them inspire and reach new and existing consumers, and ultimately drive sales in a singular unit. We see that these kinds of shoppable rich media experiences resonate with consumers as well, as we're bringing more discovery and inspiration to the online shopping experience. We're grateful to work with brand partners who have been excited to innovate with us and incubate these formats along the way to drive maximum impact."
Instacart's new shoppable video ads will equip brands to combine the powerful storytelling capabilities of video creative with an in-line set of shoppable products to shorten the path from discovery to purchase. Advertisers will be able to fuel brand affinity with rich stories, motion and audio, and inspire bigger baskets with seamless add to cart functionality. Throughout the pilot, Instacart will test and learn alongside its CPG brand partners to determine best practices and inform what the shoppable video product looks like when it is available to all brands in Instacart's self-service portal, Ads Manager, later this year.
Building on the early success of its inaugural display ads product, Instacart has created a new, iterative, shoppable display product to inspire basket building through discovery and purchase. This new shoppable display format is a CPG brand's contextual 'pop up shop' on Instacart and enables them to reach the right consumer at the right time to drive consideration and bigger baskets – without disrupting the shopping experience. The engaging new format features brand imagery coupled with direct add to cart functionality; brands are able to pin a bundle of items that inspires complementary purchases, innovation, and drives routine purchases. More than 40 CPG brands have piloted the shoppable display product, which will be generally available to all brand partners in Ads Manager later this summer. Dove first partnered with Instacart Ads in 2017 with sponsored product campaigns, and expanded as an early pioneer with shoppable display for their "Nourish Your Beauty" campaign.
"Across all our Dove campaigns, we tell real, thoughtful stories of beauty as a source of confidence, not anxiety, that our audience can authentically connect with and that inspire the next generation," said Leslie Miller, Marketing Director on Dove. "At the same time, we are constantly looking for innovative platforms to engage with our audience. Working with Instacart Ads has enabled us to try new tools that do just that. Testing Instacart's new shoppable display and shoppable video ads have equipped us to inspire even more people with our brand storytelling and seamlessly drive purchases as they shop on Instacart."
"Partnering with Instacart helps us stay ahead of the curve when it comes to inspiring and engaging consumers along their shopping journey," said Emily Frankel, SVP, eCommerce Marketing Head at PepsiCo. "Multiple PepsiCo brands have joined the Instacart video and display pilots to test and learn. Shoppable display has proven to be an effective way to drive first-time purchase of our products via the Instacart platform, and while we're just getting started with shoppable video, we look forward to continuing our work to give consumers a compelling omnichannel experience."
"We're thrilled to partner with Instacart. Online grocery shopping is critical to our long-term growth strategy and we are excited to create a richer experience for our consumers as they shop for our beloved brands." - Wesley Saraceni, Senior Director of Marketing Digital Commerce at Mondelēz International.
Instacart's new shoppable video and shoppable display products expand the company's robust advertising tool kit and help CPG brands of all sizes deeply engage with consumers directly at the point of purchase. Now, advertisers have even more choices and touchpoints to inspire consumers throughout the entire shopping journey. The new shoppable video and display products, alongside the company's flagship sponsored product offering, brand pages and suite of display ad solutions, equip brands on Instacart with comprehensive full-funnel marketing capabilities to reach valuable consumers at the point of purchase and drive effective, measurable outcomes.
Instacart today offers self-service and managed ad services for more than 5,000 CPG brands. Instacart also partners with industry-leading API partners that have built campaign management and optimization applications leveraging the Instacart Ads API.

Roger Dubuis’s Excalibur line just got a little bit bigger.
The Swiss watchmaker has added two new timepieces to the flagship collection. Launched in 2005, Excalibur was inspired by the Arthurian legend and is known for its avant-garde skeletonized movements that highlight a star motif. The sleek new additions, unveiled Wednesday, bear all the hallmarks but feature cases made entirely from black ceramic. According to Roger Dubuis, this material is four times stronger than stainless steel and ultra-resistant to scratches.
The new Excalibur Double Tourbillion and Excalibur Monobalancier models both sport unique in-house movements that offer an impressive 72-hour power reserve and striking openworked dials to showcase the intricacies within. The handcrafted beauties each come fitted with an embossed black leather strap, too. And while there are certainly similarities between the two, there are also subtle differences.
The Excalibur Double Tourbillion, for instance, comes equipped with a 45 mm case that houses two tourbillions, a gray flange, an engraved minute track and rhodium-plated hour markers to help it pop on your wrist. The five-pointed Roger Dubuis star takes pride of place at 12 o’clock, while the RD108 movement is clearly visible through the sapphire crystal caseback.
The blacked-out Excalibur Monobalancier, on the other hand, sports a slightly smaller 42 mm case and makes the micro-rotor and balance wheel the focus. The star has been reshaped to hover above the movement’s barrel, while the new caliber, RD 720SQ, has been refined for greater accuracy and precision. Roger Dubuis fans may remember this model debuted at Watches & Wonders 2022 back in March, but was finished in the watchmaker’s proprietary EON Gold (a pink-gold alloy) instead of ceramic. This particular variant could also be finished with 60 white diamonds on the case bezel for a little extra sparkle.
The Excalibur range currently comprises some 23 different variations, but few models are as slick or hardwearing as this new noir duo. As for the cost, the Roger Dubuis Excalibur Double Tourbillon Black Ceramic is limited to only 28 pieces with the price upon request, while the Excalibur Monobalancier Black Ceramic will set you back $67,500. | https://robbreport.com/style/watch-collector/roger-dubuis-black-ceramic-excalibur-watches-1234681739/ | 2022-05-26T15:15:10Z | https://robbreport.com/style/watch-collector/roger-dubuis-black-ceramic-excalibur-watches-1234681739/ | false | 1 |

The headmaster puts on his spectacles, leaves his assault rifle in the office, and sets off to meet the latest arrivals. Darkness has fallen on the outskirts of Vinnytsia, in central Ukraine.
The school’s lights are off to conceal the building from Russian air raids, so the headmaster walks down blacked-out corridors, nodding to his fellow teachers keeping watch, and hobbles outside, an old sports injury nagging at his left knee.
A car is parked in the street with its engine running, bags of belongings stuffed in the back. The headmaster greets its passengers, a family of four who have escaped the Russian bombardment of Kharkiv. “Welcome,” he says with a smile, directing them to join hundreds of others inside who have fled the Russian advance. “You’re safe now.”
The headmaster, Valery Djakiv, gave me a similar greeting after my own tumultuous drive out of the warzone. A week before, I had woken in Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city, to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s televised declaration of war – or so-called “special military operation” – following a tense night broken by insomnia and a knotted stomach. By then it was clear that Russia was about to invade. Looking out of the window of my rented, city-centre apartment I could see lights on, televisions flickering. One man stood on his balcony, smoking in the dead of night. The previous day had been sunny. Amid mounting fears of an invasion, Kharkiv, just 30 miles from the Russian border, was peaceful. I had taken that afternoon off for some sightseeing, and walked through Independence Square in glorious winter sunshine as families skated on an open-air ice rink to piped music. Nearby, I popped into the Kharkiv Museum of Art to see its collection of exquisite paintings by Russian and Ukrainian masters, before enjoying a cappuccino in a café on Sumska Street, where couples shared thick slices of cheesecake. All that vanished at dawn, when the bombs started dropping. | https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/politics/article/kharkiv-ukraine-sanctuary-school | 2022-05-26T15:18:14Z | https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/politics/article/kharkiv-ukraine-sanctuary-school | false | 1 |
NEW YORK, May 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The top-ranked orthopedic hospital in the nation, Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS), has launched a new initiative, "Move Better Play Better", which will provide free injury prevention resources to 50 high schools throughout the U.S. during the 2022-23 school year.
The "Move Better Play Better" program is comprised of risk factor screenings for student-athletes; educational workshops for parents, coaches and physical education teachers, and on-site or virtual support visits for key stakeholders. HSS will also provide priority access to a new injury prevention training app for coaches. Any high school in the nation can apply to join the program, as long as they do not have a full-time athletic trainer.
"High school sports have long been an important community pillar as they provide children with important social skills and health benefits," said Joseph Janosky, DrPHc, MSc, PT, AT, Director, Injury Prevention Programs, HSS. "While injuries are common, the good news is that proper training can change this. Here at HSS, we have developed evidence-based injury prevention programs so kids can reap the benefits of sports with a reduced risk of getting hurt."
Approximately 7 million students play high school sports with over 2 million injuries each year. Nearly 30,000 of those injuries result in hospital stays. The CDC believes that up to half of these injuries could be prevented with proper training and resources.
When schools have access to a full-time athletic trainer, their students see lower overall and recurring injury rates. Unfortunately, approximately two-thirds of U.S. high schools lack access.
Kids who endure sports injuries are more likely to miss school, suffer from mental health issues such as depression, and develop chronic orthopedic issues like arthritis that could increase risk of opioid dependency.
"We understand the devastating effects that injuries can have on our youth and we believe that we can help kids stay safe playing the sport of their choice by providing our resources and expertise directly to their schools," said Janosky.
"Move Better Play Better" lives within the HSS Sports Medicine Institute's Youth Sports Safety Program, which brings together sports medicine doctors, physical therapists and other experts to develop injury prevention programs aimed to keep youth athletes safe. Since the program's inception in 2016, nearly 300,000 youth athletes, coaches and teachers have attended injury prevention workshops. Since December 2021, over 1,000 youth athletes have participated in injury risk factor screenings.
"The HSS Sports Medicine Institute is committed to getting athletes of all ages back to their sports and we are especially proud of initiatives such as these that strive to help children embark on a lifelong journey of athletics," said Andrew D. Pearle, MD, chief of the HSS Sports Medicine Institute.
The initiative was announced at the Project Play Summit on May 4 in Washington, D.C. Project Play is the flagship initiative of the Aspen Institute's Sports & Society Program, and aims to develop, share and apply knowledge that helps stakeholders build healthy communities through sports specifically access to quality sport activity for all children. The yearly Summit is the nation's premier gathering of leaders building healthy community through sports.
Interested high schools can apply to join the Move Better Play Better Campaign here. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis through July 1, 2022. A brief letter of support from a school or district administrator is required as part of the application. Applicants who are not selected will receive access to a selection of free injury prevention resources.

The government on Thursday withdrew its offer to sell its entire 53 per cent stake in BPCL, saying that majority of bidders have expressed their inability to participate in the current privatisation process due to prevailing conditions in the global energy market.
The government had planned to sell its entire 52.98 per cent stake in Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd (BPCL) and invited Expressions of Interest (EoIs) from bidders in March 2020. At least three bids came in by November 2020.
However, the privatisation was stalled after two bidders walked out over issues such as lack of clarity in fuel pricing, with just one bidder left in the fray.
The Department of Investment and Public Asset Management (DIPAM) said in response to the invitation, multiple EoIs were received from interested parties. Qualified Interested Parties (QIPs) had initiated due diligence of the company.
However, the multiple COVID-19 waves and geopolitical conditions affected industries globally, particularly the oil and gas industry.
"Owing to prevailing conditions in the global energy market, the majority of QIPs have expressed their inability to continue in the current process of disinvestment of BPCL," it said.
In view of this, the group of ministers on disinvestment has decided to call off the present EoI process for the strategic disinvestment of BPCL and the EoIs received from QIPs shall stand cancelled, DIPAM said.

"Decision on the re-initiation of the strategic disinvestment process of BPCL will be taken in due course based on review of situation," it added.
Shares of BPCL settled at Rs 324.25, down 0.54 per cent over its previous close on the BSE.
The privatisation of India's second-largest state oil refining and fuel marketing company had not attracted much interest initially due to the volatile global oil price scenario and later because of lack of clarity in domestic fuel pricing.
The government was to seek financial bids once bidders completed due diligence and the terms and conditions of the share purchase agreement were finalised.
Mining mogul Anil Agarwal's Vedanta group and US venture funds Apollo Global Management Inc and I Squared Capital Advisors had expressed interest in buying the government's 53 per cent stake in BPCL.
But the two funds withdrew after failing to rope in global investors amid waning interest in fossil fuels.
Public sector fuel retailers, which control 90 per cent of the petrol and diesel market, sell these fuels at prices below the cost.
As the government takes a fresh look at BPCL privatisation, including revising the terms of sale, it may offer a 26 per cent stake along with management control in the company, considering the geopolitical situation and energy transition, a source said.
This will limit the amount of money a bidder has to put upfront to buy the company.
BPCL is India's second-largest oil marketing company after Indian Oil, and with refineries in Mumbai, Kochi and Madhya Pradesh, it has the third-largest refining capacity after Reliance and Indian Oil. | https://www.indiatoday.in/business/story/bharat-petroleum-government-stakes-privatisation-dropped-1954617-2022-05-26 | 2022-05-26T15:23:46Z | https://www.indiatoday.in/business/story/bharat-petroleum-government-stakes-privatisation-dropped-1954617-2022-05-26 | false | 8 |
My co-worker gave her baby the worst name I’ve ever heard – it would be a great choice for a shampoo bottle
REDDIT users have taken to the internet to criticize parents for giving their children unconventional names.
Redditor captainmagictrousers revealed the uncommon name given to a co-worker's child and sparked adverse reactions from fellow site users.
The discussion board user was responding to the question, "What is the worst name you could give a child?" - which was posted on Reddit last year and received nearly five thousand comments.
Captainmagictrousers commented: "My coworker named her baby 'Strawberry Rain'.
"Which would be a great name if she had given birth to a bottle of shampoo."
Other Reddit users were quick to respond and share their disbelief in the name choice, with one writing: "Surely you can't be serious."
Another replied: "God, I really hope, that one day, the kid googles her name and somehow stumbles upon this.
"You know, once she goes through all the candles, lotions, soaps, etc."
"Should’ve went with chocolate rain instead," another Reddit user suggested.
A fourth Redditor didn't seem too concerned with "Strawberry Rain," and instead shared another odd name.
Most read in The US Sun
The comment read: "How about not giving your child a name?
"There was a kid I went to high school with whose legal first name was 'Unnamed Baby Boy'.
"I don't know the story behind that though."
Another Reddit user noted that a British chef, Jamie Oliver, gave his children some unique names.
The names were listed as "poppy honey rosie, petal blossom rainbow, buddy bear maurice, daisy boo pamela, and river rocket blue dallas someone call childline."
"Those sound like carebears," someone replied in the thread.
Meanwhile, famous TikTok user Doctor Carlton recently asked for 'unfortunate names' and while doing so explained how he knew a Richard Head.
"I went to school with him," he said. "What were his parents thinking?"
And hundreds of people responded to his request.
I know a girl who was called Coe Blair before she decided to marry Sam Cain and take his last name," revealed one woman.
Another person revealed they knew an Anita Beer (I need a beer).
Additionally, Abbie Herbert and her husband Josh have received criticism in the past for naming their daughter after a "fart."
And here are the top nine most-hated baby names chosen by grandparents, including Aurora & Charlotte.

The Flash season 8 episode 17 promo: Eobard Thawne is on Lian Yu!
In two weeks you are going to be seeing The Flash season 8 episode 17 on the air and per the new promo, this one looks awesome.
At first, it looked like this would be an Allegra-centric episode that didn’t further along the story enough, but that’s before the Reverse-Flash paranoia began. Tom Cavanagh is coming back as Eobard Thawne, largely as Barry wants to make sure he’s where he last left him: Lian Yu.
Of course, it’s awesome to see The Flash doing what it can to call back to its Arrow origins here, and we have to hope that this episode will also reveal what is really going on. Is there another speedster out there? How much of that is something we should worry about?
At the moment, it’s our feeling that “Keep It Dark” will set in stone the final graphic novel of the season, and it may feature a Big Bad from the comics we haven’t seen as of yet … or at least that’s our hope. We’ve been waiting to get a version of Cobalt Blue in here!
Also, the Caitlin questions
Barry shutting down her attempts to bring Frost back could have some pretty dramatic repercussions. Could this be one of the darkest stories for this character we’ve seen so far moving forward? We’re certainly concerned for the long-term future here, though we don’t even know if all of this will be fully realized until we get to a season 9. Caitlin is still grieving, and one of the things that comes with grief sometimes is people making some pretty unpredictable decisions. Without Frost, Dr. Snow suddenly doesn’t see herself as whole.

Bella Hadid is launching an NFT collection.
The 25-year-old model has taken to Instagram to announce the launch of her new NFT venture, which is called CY-B3LLA.
Bella - who has more than 52 million followers on Instagram - wrote on the photo-sharing platform: "As we’ve been reminded too many times, the universe we live in is imperfect. But I believe this provides a true opportunity to build a meta community, sustained by peace, love, compassion and meaningful connections."
The project has been created in partnership with reBASE, with Bella launching as many as 11,111 exclusive NFTs.
The brunette beauty ultimately hopes to bridge the gap between herself and her fans.
She added: "I've co-founded this collection because they aren't just NFTs - they're invitations to a new global nation. Each NFT features different and unique 3-D scans of me, though up with you in mind, that will be utilized around the world; designed to encourage travel, community, growth, fantasy and human interactions.
"That's just the beginning. In the coming months, we'll grow this new meta nation with real locations and events all around the world, where I can meet each and every one of you.
"Join a new online community at www.cybella.xyz"
Bella already has a huge social media following, but she previously admitted that she struggles with her role-model status.
The catwalk star said in 2016: "It’s crazy because even the people that look up to me are older than me. I’m still growing, and that’s the hardest part, because if you’re in the spotlight you’re immediately an adult.
"It’s hard. The things I’d do is the same s*** other 20-year-olds in college would do, but it’s different for me because people are watching." | https://www.hiawathaworldonline.com/news/entertainment/bella-hadid-launches-an-nft-collection/article_274c0492-00ce-5dc1-992a-88bfd63767a1.html | 2022-05-26T15:30:16Z | https://www.hiawathaworldonline.com/news/entertainment/bella-hadid-launches-an-nft-collection/article_274c0492-00ce-5dc1-992a-88bfd63767a1.html | true | 2 |
