The Upper West Regional Police Command has arrested three persons in connection with the flogging of two lovers over a leaked sex tape.
The three suspects include the person who brought the victims to the police station and two sub-chiefs.
Citi News sources at the Upper West Regional Police Command revealed that the suspects are currently under interrogation.
Reports indicate that the two were arrested by some young men in the town, who sent them to the Palace.
The Wa Naa was absent upon their arrival, compelling the young men to take matters into their own hands and deliver punishment.
They were given twenty lashes each. The incident has drawn the ire of Ghanaians, who have called for sanctions against those involved.
The Upper West Regional Police Commander, DCOP Peter Ndekugri, had earlier told Citi news that the Palace is cooperating with the Police to bring the perpetrators to book.

Who: American College of Surgeons leadership; Trauma surgeons who have treated gravely wounded shooting victims
What: NEWS CONFERENCE – Accelerating our response to America's firearm public health crisis
When: Thursday, June 2, 2022; 9:30 a.m. (EDT); Livestreaming available (details below)
Where: American College of Surgeons - Washington D.C. Office
20 F Street, NW (near the intersection of North Capitol Street)
WASHINGTON, June 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Firearm violence is a growing public health crisis that must be urgently addressed. Our surgeons are on the front lines dealing with the devastating effects of this crisis and are advocating for bipartisan solutions to reduce the rising numbers of deaths and serious injuries that are arriving in trauma centers on a daily basis.
During this news conference, leaders from the American College of Surgeons and its Committee on Trauma (ACS COT) will provide an overview of important steps that can be taken to accelerate an effective response to America's firearm injury and death crisis. Peer-reviewed published recommendations from the ACS COT Firearm Strategy Team (FAST) could help elected officials find common ground to address this crisis. The recommendations—the product of a broad consensus of trauma surgeons, including many who own firearms—present a multi-faceted approach and attainable strategies to reduce firearm violence while respecting a person's right to own and safely use a firearm.
For more than three decades, the ACS COT has advocated for effective prevention of firearm injuries, and in 2019, brought together 44 national medical and other organizations to develop a consensus on a comprehensive public health and medical approach to address the issue.
Trauma surgeons, including Dr. Ronald M. Stewart who treated Uvalde school shooting victims, will also discuss how they've treated patients who have been seriously wounded by high-velocity weapons, how trauma surgeons across the U.S. are dealing with the firearm violence epidemic, and the impact that these devastating incidents are having on trauma care across the country. Speakers include:
- Patricia L. Turner, MD, FACS
Executive Director, American College of Surgeons
Washington, D.C., and Chicago, Illinois - Ronald M. Stewart, MD, FACS
Chair, Department of Surgery, University Hospital – San Antonio
Former Medical Director, ACS Trauma Programs

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., June 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Evernest, a national, full-service real estate and property management firm, announced today that they have acquired Chattanooga metro-based DK Properties.
The acquisition adds more than 350 homes to Evernest's Chattanooga portfolio, and boosts the firm's overall homes managed to over 7,000 nation-wide.
"DK Properties has a rich history of superior client care in Chattanooga," said Matthew Whitaker, Evernest Founder and CEO. "We plan to uphold that legacy while enhancing services, expanding resources and working closely with DK Properties staff to ensure a smooth transition."
"I've known Matthew for a long time and Evernest's high standards and commitment to quality are what sold me on selling to them," said DK Properties owner, Brandon King. "I have been in contact with multiple larger, multi-state companies in the hopes of finding one that met my high expectations for client care. Evernest was the solution."
DK Properties is the 19th organization purchased by Evernest, and one of four purchased within the last month. "Our goal is to find best-in-class property management providers who are ready to exit the industry. We take the legacy they've built and infuse it with our distinctive culture, including a national brand, in-house brokerage services, and in-house underwriting."
"As Evernest expands our footprint in Chattanooga, we're excited to help residents, owners, and investors achieve their real estate goals, whatever those may be," said Whitaker.

Newly-Opened Texas H-E-B Gets Visit From Unlikely Customer: WATCH
By Dani Medina
June 1, 2022
A new H-E-B location sprouted in New Braunfels, Texas, at the end of April, bringing in hundreds and hundreds of customers who wanted to check out the new digs. One customer, however, had gray and black fur and walked on four legs, according to MySanAntonio.
In a video shared to the City of New Braunfels Facebook page, an animal welfare crew member is seen wrangling a raccoon who made his way into the new grocery store. The video shows the employee standing on shopping carts to grab the furry critter who wedged himself in between the wall and the row of buggies. The video then shows the raccoon being released and running away.
"Our Animal Welfare team comes to the rescue again! Can’t blame him for wanting to check out the new HEB like everyone else. Good job team!" the caption said.
The new New Braunfels H-E-B, located at 651 S. Walnut Avenue, features the first-ever Home by H-E-B department and is also home to a two-story BBQ restaurant.
You can watch the video of the raccoon entering H-E-B below:

It's said to be one of the most haunted places in the United States, and soon a book all about Waverly Hills' history will be hitting shelves. Waverly Hills Sanatorium is located just outside of Louisville. Waverly Hills is known for being haunted, and being a "hotbed" for paranormal activity. Part of the reason for this reputation has to do with Waverly's history. The numbers vary, but it's said that thousands died at Waverly Hills Sanatorium as it was originally a tuberculosis hospital. After the tuberculosis epidemic was over, it was turned into a geriatric medical facility. In 1981 Waverly Hills closed its doors. Now the Waverly Hills Historical Society works hard to help preserve the historic landmark, and by utilizing it's creepy history they're able to raise funds for their nonprofit which helps with the preservation of the building. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2619657052800/bc-s-inspired-effort-falls-just-short-2-0-to-tigers | 2022-06-01T19:44:53Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2619657052800/bc-s-inspired-effort-falls-just-short-2-0-to-tigers | true | null |
Harris calls water security a foreign policy priority
WASHINGTON (AP) — Vice President Kamala Harris said Wednesday the U.S. is safer if people in other countries have sufficient water to drink, grow food and safely dispose of sewage, emphasizing that water access is a foreign policy priority.
Harris said making sure that every country has enough water will prevent conflicts, improve health outcomes and boost local economies. Working towards those goals will make the world more stable and secure, according to a newly released White House plan to address issues facing global water supplies and quality.
The Biden administration said it will support investments in water infrastructure abroad and provide technical expertise to help other countries manage their water resources.
More than two billion people around the world live in “water stressed” countries where demand for water exceeds supplies, the World Health Organization estimates. Harris said that reality will have a “profound impact on America’s interests around the globe.”
“Water insecurity makes our world less stable,” she said, adding that it can lead to “mass migration, which can put significant pressure on neighboring communities.”
Republicans have criticized the Biden administration over the number of migrants arriving at the Southern border. Harris has frequently said tackling migration requires addressing “root causes,” and previously proposed providing short-term relief to some Central American countries dealing with extreme weather events.
Wednesday’s plan states that gaps in access to basic sanitation in Central America “contribute to inequality, drive migration, and foment civil unrest.”
Climate change will increase temperatures and drive extreme weather, making water access in some regions worse. So far, the world has made modest, uneven progress towards improving sanitation and drinking water services, the White House said.
Inadequate water access has the most effect on women, who need water for menstrual hygiene and are often responsible for transporting water, the plan said.
The WHO estimates that 2 billion people worldwide drink from a water source contaminated with feces, which can cause diarrhea and other diseases. The problem kills an estimated 485,000 people a year, according to the organization.
U.S. Agency for International Development administrator Samantha Power said Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has deprived millions in that country of clean water.
“Some leaders are taking advantage of water insecurity and actually wielding it as a weapon of war,” said Power, who also spoke at the event.
The White House said it would use existing resources to implement the plan, but was thin on specifics about how deadlines or goals would be met. Those goals include improving clean water access without increasing greenhouse gas emissions, helping other countries sustainably manage resources, and getting international organizations to address water security issues.
Harris spoke at the White House alongside Power and Kathleen Hicks, deputy secretary at the Department of Defense. Other speakers included Alice Albright, CEO of the Millennium Challenge Corporation and the daughter of former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright.
“Many of our most fundamental national security interests depend on water security,” Harris said.
The Biden administration also released a one-year report on its efforts to combat drought, a significant, stubborn problem impacting much of the western United States. Harris said the infrastructure bill passed last year directed billions toward water infrastructure, including the replacement of toxic lead pipes.
Harris’ home state of California has been especially hard hit by dry conditions. Less water has increased the risk of wildfires and forced water restrictions on millions of Californians.
“Across the West, we have seen the terrible cost of the climate crisis,” Harris said.

NEW YORK (AP)Mark Canha led off with the first of his four hits, Starling Marte followed with a homer against Patrick Corbin and the New York Mets rolled from there, totaling 17 hits in a 10-0 blowout of the Washington Nationals on Tuesday night.
The NL East-leading Mets have won a season-best five straight, all during this six-game homestand, which ends Wednesday against the Nats. They have at least 16 hits in consecutive games for the second time in a week.
Jeff McNeil had three hits, Eduardo Escobar homered, Francisco Lindor extended his RBI streak to nine games and every Mets starter had at least one knock as New York followed a 13-5 thrashing against Washington with another laugher.
Trevor Williams (1-3) pitched five shutout innings against a Nationals lineup missing Nelson Cruz, who sat out with a left ankle contusion. Williams got his first victory as a Met after being acquired last July.
Corbin (1-8) allowed seven runs and 12 hits, the last a screaming comebacker by Tomas Nido that knocked over the pitcher like Charlie Brown. Corbin appeared OK, but manager Dave Martinez promptly pulled him anyway. The left-hander completed 4 1/3 innings, and his ERA rose to 6.96. The Nats had six hits, three by Dee Strange-Gordon.
REDS 2, RED SOX 1
BOSTON (AP) – Luis Castillo struck out 10 while pitching six innings of one-hit ball, and Cincinnati got its first victory at Fenway Park since Game 7 of the 1975 World Series.
Joey Votto twice doubled off the top of the outfield wall – once to left, once to right and each perhaps an inch from a home run – and Cincinnati scored both runs on Boston throwing errors.
Rafael Devers had the only hit off Castillo (2-2), who walked three before leaving with a 1-0 lead after six.
Tony Santillan, the fourth Reds pitcher, entered a one-hit shutout in the ninth and gave up a single to Kike Hernandez and a double to Devers. After J.D. Martinez and Xander Bogaerts were retired, Alex Verdugo hit a chopper that Votto couldn’t handle at first, allowing one run to score on the single. Santillan then struck out Trevor Story to earn his fourth save.
Michael Wacha (3-1) retired the first 12 batters before Votto’s double to right-center. Wacha allowed zero earned runs and three hits and struck out three.
YANKEES 9, ANGELS 1
NEW YORK (AP) – Noah Syndergaard was rocked in his return to New York, giving up Matt Carpenter’s two-run homer in a four-run first inning that propelled the Yankees over reeling Los Angeles.
Starting a high-profile three-game series against Shohei Ohtani, Mike Trout & Co., New York improved the American League’s best record to 34-14 and sent the Angels (27-23) to their season-worst sixth straight loss. Jordan Montgomery (1-1) pitched four-hit ball for seven innings, allowing Luis Rengifo’s seventh-inning homer on a hanging curveball.
Aaron Judge, the 6-foot-7 All-Star, helped out with his glove, jumping to get his glove above the 8-foot-5 center-field wall to deny Ohtani a possible home run in the first.
Syndergaard (4-3) got just one swinging strike among 45 pitches, averaging 94 mph with his fastball. He allowed five runs, seven hits and a walk, his ERA rising from 3.08 to 4.02.
Jose Trevino also homered for the Yankees and tied a career high with three hits.
RANGERS 3, RAYS 0
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) – Martin Perez retired all 16 batters after taking a 97 mph liner off his right leg, lowering his majors-leading ERA with seven scoreless innings in Texas’ victory over Tampa Bay.
Corey Seager homered for Texas’ first hit in the fourth inning, with Adolis Garcia adding a two-run shot two batters later as the Rangers won for the first sixth time in seven games and reached .500 (24-24) for the first time this season.
Perez (4-2) needed a few minutes to recover after Taylor Walls’ scorching infield single in the second. The left-hander stayed in, got Vidal Brujan to fly out with two runners on and pitched five perfect innings from there. The 31-year-old Perez extended the longest active streak in the majors without allowing a homer to 66 1/3 innings. He also dropped his ERA to 1.42, striking out five with no walks.
John King pitched a perfect eighth, and Joe Barlow did the same in the ninth for his ninth save as the Rangers retired the final 22 batters.
Ryan Yarbrough (0-2) gave up six hits and three runs in 6 2/3 innings.
GIANTS 7, PHILLIES 4, 11 INNINGS
PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Joc Pederson’s two-run homer in the 11th inning helped power San Francisco past struggling Philadelphia.
Luis Gonzalez had a career-high four hits as San Francisco won its third straight overall and second consecutive extra-inning game.
A fielding error by Jeurys Familia allowed Wilmer Flores to score in the 10th to give San Francisco a 4-3 lead. Philadelphia tied it when Alec Bohm’s two-out grounder up the middle hit the second base bag, bouncing over Thairo Estrada and allowing pinch-runner Roman Quinn to score. But the Giants scored three times in the 11th and sent the Phillies to their fifth straight loss.
Jose Alvarez (2-1) struck out two and walked two in 1 1/3 innings to earn the win for the Giants, who scored the winning runs against Andrew Bellatti (1-2) for the second straight day. On Monday, Curt Casali hit a two-run homer to lift San Francisco to a 5-4 victory.
The Phillies have lost three straight games in extra innings and 12 out of their last 16 games overall.
CARDINALS 3, PADRES 2, 10 INNINGS
ST. LOUIS (AP) – Albert Pujols hit a sacrifice fly in the 10th inning and St. Louis beat San Diego.
Tommy Edman began the 10th as the Cardinals’ automatic runner at second. After Paul Goldschmidt was intentionally walked by Taylor Rogers (0-2) and Nolan Arenado fouled out, Edman stole third. Pujols followed with his second sacrifice fly of the game, lifting a ball to left that easily scored Edman.
Drew VerHagen (3-0), the fourth St. Louis pitcher, started the 10th and benefitted from a perfect throw from left fielder Lars Nootbaar, who had entered the game in the seventh. Jurickson Profar singled to left with two outs and Nootbaar cut down pinch-runner Jose Azocar at home to end the inning.
San Diego dropped to 5-3 in extra innings this season. St. Louis improved to 2-1.
TWINS 8, TIGERS 2, 1ST GAME
TIGERS 4, TWINS 0, 2ND GAME
DETROIT (AP) – Jonathan Schoop homered and drove in four runs as Detroit, with Kody Clemens making his major league debut while his famous father watched from a suite, beat Minnesota to split a doubleheader.
Seven-time Cy Young Award winner Roger Clemens saw his 26-year-old son go 0 for 3, striking out twice and drawing a walk. Flawless in the field at second base, Kody Clemens handled a grounder for the final out of the game.
Max Kepler had three hits and drove in three runs and Gary Sanchez hit a three-run homer to help the Twins win the first game.
In the second game, Schoop hit a two-run homer in the first inning and added a two-run single off second baseman Jorge Polanco’s glove.
Reliever Wily Peralta (2-0) got the win with two scoreless innings of relief. Five Tigers pitchers combined on the three-hit shutout. Minnesota starter Cole Sands (0-1) allowed four runs on five hits and four walks in four innings.
Devin Smeltzer (2-0) was the winner in the first game, giving up two runs and six hits in 6 2/3 innings. Rony Garcia (0-1) allowed six runs and seven hits in five innings.
BLUE JAYS 6, WHITE SOX 5
TORONTO (AP) – Alejandro Kirk hit a pair of two-run homers and Toronto extended its winning streak to six with a victory over Chicago.
Kevin Gausman (5-3) pitched five innings to win his second straight start, getting five strikeouts while allowing three runs, six hits and one walk. The right-hander has won four of his past six outings. Jordan Romano got three outs for his AL-leading 16th save in 18 chances.
Both came off of White Sox right-hander Lucas Giolito (3-2), who allowed season-highs of six runs and eight hits in 4 2/3 innings and raised his ERA from 2.63 to 3.61.
Andrew Vaughn homered and had four hits and two RBIs for the White Sox, who began a stretch without All-Star shortstop Tim Anderson. He is expected to miss at least three weeks after straining his right groin in Sunday’s win over the Cubs.
MARINERS 10, ORIOLES 0
BALTIMORE (AP) – George Kirby allowed four hits in six innings for his first big league win, and Taylor Trammell had three hits and four RBIs to help Seattle to a 10-0 rout of Baltimore.
Kirby (1-1) struck out eight and walked one in his fifth major league start. The rookie right-hander also went six scoreless innings in his debut May 8 against Tampa Bay, but he settled for a no-decision.
Reliever Bryan Baker (1-3) got the first four outs as essentially an opener for the Orioles, but he allowed an RBI double to Julio Rodriguez in the first. Zac Lowther came on with two on and one out in the second after being recalled from Triple-A Norfolk before the game. He allowed six runs – five earned – in 5 1/3 innings.
Infielder Chris Owings pitched the ninth for the Orioles and allowed an RBI double by Trammell.
GUARDIANS 8, ROYALS 3

DETROIT (AP) — A Republican candidate for Michigan governor lost a bid to get on the Aug. 2 primary ballot Wednesday in the first key court decision since election officials found campaign petitions rife with fraudulent signatures.
The ruling affects Perry Johnson, a wealthy businessman considered to be a leading candidate for the Republican nomination. But the decision could also apply to three other candidates, including former Detroit Police Chief James Craig, who also have barred from the ballot.
Separate legal challenges were pending, just a few days before the ballot must be completed.
There appears to be no dispute that fraudulent signatures were turned in by paid circulators, though there’s no evidence that the candidates were aware of the scam. In a court filing, attorneys representing the Board of State Canvassers called it an “unprecedented situation.”
The candidates were declared ineligible last week, the result of a tie vote by the board. State election staff said Johnson, Craig, Michael Markey and Donna Brandenburg didn’t meet the 15,000-signature threshold because of fraudulent signatures.
In Johnson’s case, about 7,000 were put in the scam column. Election staff found dead voters on his petitions, misspelled names and some signatures with first names but only a last initial.
Johnson asked the appeals court to overrule the canvassers and put him on the ballot. He said he would meet the signature threshold if the state election bureau would examine each petition line by line. Only 20% of the 7,000 signatures were compared to signatures in the state voter file.
“The board … had a clear legal duty to investigate, but it did not have a clear legal duty to conduct a comparison of each fraudulent signature against the qualified voter file,” the appeals court said in a 3-0 opinion.
Five other Republican candidates landed a ballot spot, including Tudor Dixon, a former conservative TV news host who has the backing of Betsy DeVos, who was head of the U.S. Education Department during the Trump administration.
The winner will face Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in the fall.

Excerpts from Hunter Biden’s ex-wife’s memoir published in People magazine
By Kate Bennett, CNN
Excerpts from the upcoming memoir written by Hunter Biden’s ex-wife Kathleen Buhle appeared on People magazine’s website on Wednesday.
The book, “If We Break” publishes on June 14. Buhle, who was married to Hunter Biden for 24 years, told People in an interview if she is questioned about his business affairs as part of the ongoing Department of Justice investigation into his businesses, she feels she would not be consequential.
“Whether or not I’m questioned, I couldn’t be of any help. I kept my head so deeply buried in the sand on our finances,” said Buhle.
The couple divorced in 2017. Buhle says she does not receive alimony from Hunter Biden. As for her current relationship with President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden, Buhle says things have changed since her divorce, and now the focus is on her three daughters. “We were all really close and it was painful. It was hard for a long time,” she said.
Neither the White House nor a lawyer for Hunter Biden immediately responded to CNN requests for comment on Buhle’s book and the excerpts released Wednesday.
In various excerpts about Hunter Biden from her book, Buhle discusses the tenuous state of their finances when the two were married.
“He started many ventures … a real estate investment fund and then a technology company. I didn’t understand any of it, or what pieces of his businesses actually generated income for us. I worried that we lived above our means, but I did nothing to change it. The way that Hunter and I handled money was that whenever I needed any, I called Hunter. More than once my debit card was declined at a store. I’d have to call Hunter to transfer money into my account. Hunter and I drove nice cars and had a beautiful home, but we were running fast on that hamster wheel and barely staying on,” writes Buhle.
In another excerpt, Buhle says after Beau Biden’s death from brain cancer in 2015, Hunter Biden’s addiction and compulsive behavior spiraled.
“In the fall of 2015, I called and texted Hunter compulsively. From my computer, I watched his every move. There were charges at Lake Tahoe at a nail salon and a charge for two lift tickets. I found a credit card charge for $10,000 at a hot tub store in Los Angeles. I found hundreds at liquor stores and strip clubs. The whole time, he told me he was healthy and sober — and I was crazy. I continually told him that I was the one person actually trying to get him sober. It became my own kind of addiction. I didn’t want to admit, to myself or anyone else, how unhealthy our relationship had become, so my struggle was just one more secret,” she writes.
Buhle said Hunter Biden started to spend more time in Delaware with Beau Biden’s widow, Hallie Biden, and her two children.
“After the funeral, I saw a purpose in Hunter’s work to set up the Beau Biden Foundation with Hallie and his parents. But he started spending most of his time at Hallie’s house. Our therapist told me Hunter needed to be up there, helping Hallie. ‘But what about his sobriety?’ I asked her. ‘He needs routine. He needs to be home with us.’ (The therapist) held firm that being with Hallie and her kids was an important part of Hunter’s grieving.”
In November 2016, Buhle learned of the affair Hunter Biden was having with Hallie Biden, his brother’s widow and Kathleen’s sister-in-law. Buhle details how she found out via her daughters, who had discovered the relationship by seeing text messages on their father’s phone.
In 2019, Buhle changed her married name back to her maiden name.
“In many ways, my last name became a crown and shield to me; it wasn’t easy to consider giving it up. Changing my name had been as frightening as anything I’d ever done before. I was no longer a Biden.”
Buhle resides in Washington, DC, where she works developing a non-profit that supports women.

(NewsNation) — Authorities located 70 missing children following a three-week operation in West Texas.
Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) out of El Paso, the Texas Department of Public Safety and multiple other federal, state and local investigators recovered the children as part of “Operation Lost Souls” from the end of April through mid-May.
According to HSI, the missing children ranged in age from 10 to 17 and included victims of sex trafficking and physical and sexual abuse. The agency says many of the children were runaways.
Authorities reported recovering the majority of the children in West Texas but found some in the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex as well as Colorado and Ciudad Juarez, Mexico.
“Operation Lost Souls exemplifies Homeland Security Investigations’ commitment to protecting the public from crimes of victimization. In this case, we are looking out for our children — our community’s most precious resource,” said HSI El Paso Deputy Special Agent in Charge Taekuk Cho. “HSI is committed to continue working with our law enforcement partners to locate, recover and help missing children heal while ensuring that perpetrators are held responsible for these heinous crimes and brought to justice.”
HSI says different agencies have provided victim services and counseling to the children and their families since the results of the investigation were announced on May 25, which coincided with National Missing Children’s Day.
Special Agent in Charge Taekuk Cho urges anyone with information about a human trafficking victim or information about this type of crime to call the National Human Trafficking Hotline at (888) 373-7888. | https://whnt.com/news/national/70-missing-children-found-by-texas-authorities/ | 2022-06-01T19:58:23Z | https://whnt.com/news/national/70-missing-children-found-by-texas-authorities/ | false | 33 |

Instagram is incorporating AMBER Alerts into its app.
AMBER Alerts, which is short for American's Missing: Child Broadcast Emergency Response, were launched 26 years ago as a nationwide system to help find lost and abducted children by sharing alerts on TV, radio, highway signs, and via SMS alerts. You know them as those loud and important notifications that you get on your smartphone whenever a child goes missing.
Now that system of alerts is rolling out (opens in new tab) on one of the world's most popular social media platforms. When an AMBER Alert is activated by the police, a new post will appear in your Instagram feed alerting you to the missing child.
The AMBER post will have a photograph of the child, a brief description of where they were last seen, and any other information available that will help locate them. You’ll be able to share the alert with your friends, and if anybody manages to see the missing person, Instagram provides a phone number where you can contact your local police department.
Instagram, which is owned by Meta, said in a release that AMBER Alerts are specific to your general area and the app will utilize a combination of IP addresses, phone location, and the city listed on your profile to decide who gets which notification.
Instagram is partnering up with the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in the US and several other international organizations to make this feature possible.
AMBER Alerts on Instagram will eventually roll out to 24 other countries within the coming weeks although it will probably be under a different name. AMBER Alerts is an American system but other countries do have their own child abduction alerts.
Analysis: Successful alerts
Adding an AMBER Alert to the digital space is not new. Google (opens in new tab) integrated these alerts into its Search and Maps service all the way back in 2012. Meta did the same back in 2015 by adding AMBER Alerts to Facebook’s feed. And like Instagram, Google and Facebook post a photograph of the missing child and other details that can help in finding the child. The good news about these mobile AMBER Alerts is that they’ve proven to be successful.
According to the US Department of Justice, 123 children have been found as a direct result of those wireless AMBER Alerts. A Meta representative told us that Facebook’s AMBER Alerts have helped in “hundreds of successful child endangerment cases around the world.”
It’s wonderful to see these systems working as they should and we hope to see other apps incorporate them. | https://www.techradar.com/nz/news/instagram-adds-amber-alert-system-to-help-find-missing-children | 2022-06-01T20:01:51Z | https://www.techradar.com/nz/news/instagram-adds-amber-alert-system-to-help-find-missing-children | true | 6 |
Kim Kardashian, who is well-known for judging other people for their work habits, is adding another brand to her long list of brands with very off-putting names, like SKIMS, KKW Beauty, KKW Fragrance. Now, another K-centric name is in the mix: SKKN BY KIM, which reads a little bit like a keyboard smash. What does she have against vowels?
For once in her life, Kardashian admitted that her beauty has a lot to do with privilege (aka money) and insists that she’s bringing all the secrets from the world’s top dermatologists to her new line, which features a nine-step (!!!!) skincare routine.
“I’ve been so privileged to learn about skin and skincare over the years from the world’s top dermatologists and estheticians, and every bottle from my new line is filled with the knowledge I’ve accumulated along the way,” Kardashian tweeted.
I’m excited to finally introduce to you SKKN BY KIM, a rejuvenating nine-product skincare ritual that I have developed from start to finish.
Photo: Mario Sorrenti pic.twitter.com/8AyapI8mgJ— Kim Kardashian (@KimKardashian) June 1, 2022
The brand launches June 21st, and they have conveniently not revealed any prices of the products, though the packaging is refillable which is pretty nifty. “You will experience refillable packaging, and clean, science-backed ingredients designed to nourish all skin types, tones, and textures at all stages of maturity.” Kardashian tweeted.
Reports of a skincare line began last year when Kardashian quietly trademarked the brand name in April 2021. The business mogul already ventured into jewelry, hair products, and even her own app. What will she think of next? A line of SmartKars? A new streaming service for Pete Davidson to roam free in his post-SNL life? Or maybe a tattoo shop? The opportunities are endless. | https://uproxx.com/viral/kim-kardashian-skincare-line-skkn/ | 2022-06-01T20:06:46Z | https://uproxx.com/viral/kim-kardashian-skincare-line-skkn/ | true | 1 |
Harris calls water security a foreign policy priority
WASHINGTON (AP) — Vice President Kamala Harris said Wednesday the U.S. is safer if people in other countries have sufficient water to drink, grow food and safely dispose of sewage, emphasizing that water access is a foreign policy priority.
Harris said making sure that every country has enough water will prevent conflicts, improve health outcomes and boost local economies. Working towards those goals will make the world more stable and secure, according to a newly released White House plan to address issues facing global water supplies and quality.
The Biden administration said it will support investments in water infrastructure abroad and provide technical expertise to help other countries manage their water resources.
More than two billion people around the world live in “water stressed” countries where demand for water exceeds supplies, the World Health Organization estimates. Harris said that reality will have a “profound impact on America’s interests around the globe.”
“Water insecurity makes our world less stable,” she said, adding that it can lead to “mass migration, which can put significant pressure on neighboring communities.”
Republicans have criticized the Biden administration over the number of migrants arriving at the Southern border. Harris has frequently said tackling migration requires addressing “root causes,” and previously proposed providing short-term relief to some Central American countries dealing with extreme weather events.
Wednesday’s plan states that gaps in access to basic sanitation in Central America “contribute to inequality, drive migration, and foment civil unrest.”
Climate change will increase temperatures and drive extreme weather, making water access in some regions worse. So far, the world has made modest, uneven progress towards improving sanitation and drinking water services, the White House said.
Inadequate water access has the most effect on women, who need water for menstrual hygiene and are often responsible for transporting water, the plan said.
The WHO estimates that 2 billion people worldwide drink from a water source contaminated with feces, which can cause diarrhea and other diseases. The problem kills an estimated 485,000 people a year, according to the organization.
U.S. Agency for International Development administrator Samantha Power said Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has deprived millions in that country of clean water.
“Some leaders are taking advantage of water insecurity and actually wielding it as a weapon of war,” said Power, who also spoke at the event.
The White House said it would use existing resources to implement the plan, but was thin on specifics about how deadlines or goals would be met. Those goals include improving clean water access without increasing greenhouse gas emissions, helping other countries sustainably manage resources, and getting international organizations to address water security issues.
Harris spoke at the White House alongside Power and Kathleen Hicks, deputy secretary at the Department of Defense. Other speakers included Alice Albright, CEO of the Millennium Challenge Corporation and the daughter of former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright.
“Many of our most fundamental national security interests depend on water security,” Harris said.
The Biden administration also released a one-year report on its efforts to combat drought, a significant, stubborn problem impacting much of the western United States. Harris said the infrastructure bill passed last year directed billions toward water infrastructure, including the replacement of toxic lead pipes.
Harris’ home state of California has been especially hard hit by dry conditions. Less water has increased the risk of wildfires and forced water restrictions on millions of Californians.
“Across the West, we have seen the terrible cost of the climate crisis,” Harris said.

NSML is the subsidiary of Nigeria LNG Limited (NLNG) which offers integrated maritime services, including maritime projects management, maritime training, crew management and administration, fleet management, terminal management services and consultancy services.
The agreement was signed by NSML’s Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Abdulkadir Ahmed, and EA Temile’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Alfred Temile. Present at the signing ceremony was the Group Managing Director of Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC), Mallam Mele Kyari, the Ambassador of Nigeria to South Korea, H.E.

Speaking at the milestone event, NSML’s MD, Abdulkadir Ahmed, said supervising the construction of the new-build LPG vessel was in line with NSML’s vision of being “an international maritime services company supporting the growth and development of the Nigerian maritime industry” which fully aligns with NLNG’s vision of “helping to build a better Nigeria”.
In his remarks, EA Temile’s Chief Executive, Alfred Temile, said its first LPG vessel, LPG Alfred Temile, is chartered to NLNG for its domestic LPG scheme. He said his company was looking forward to taking delivery of the new carrier in July 2023. | https://www.okay.ng/nsml-ea-temile-sign-construction-supervision-agreement-for-new-lpg-vessel/ | 2022-06-01T20:10:25Z | https://www.okay.ng/nsml-ea-temile-sign-construction-supervision-agreement-for-new-lpg-vessel/ | false | 4 |

Reel Bar
In 2014, Andy Christensen and Ray Fogg opened Reel Bar on South Bass Island, better known as Put-in-Bay, Ohio. The bar, which is located in the historic building formerly known as Tony’s, was completely remodeled to offer a rustic setting honoring its island roots. As the name suggests, Reel Bar features décor focused on fishing, boating and Lake Erie island life. In a tongue-in-cheek play on their new name, it’s a “Reel New Bar in a Reel Old Place."

Chicago and Illinois continue to suffer from a decadeslong pension crisis, which is among the worst in the country. Pension funds have long been mismanaged, digging the state into deeper and deeper debt. According to credit rating agency Moody’s Investors Service, that number could be as high as $317 billion — and counting.
Illinois’ pension crisis is stifling our state’s economic growth, placing rising pressure on taxpayers and funneling money away from programs that help support many Illinoisans. While the introduction of a casino to Chicago could help put a dent in our pension crisis, and the legalization of marijuana has the potential to create jobs and opportunities for people of color to build equity, these ventures are not panaceas.
Illinois needs a sustainable economic engine that creates a stable base of jobs and generates long-term economic prosperity. Chicago’s South Side is among the regions most desperately in need of jobs, investment and growth. Alone, cannabis and a casino do not address the Southland’s unmet needs. The creation of the South Suburban Airport, however, could be that economic engine for the region.
Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s selection of the $1.7 billion Bally’s plan has given Chicago’s pursuit of a casino a clearer direction and shape. Carrying the highest casino tax rate in the state at roughly 40% of adjusted gross revenue, Bally’s, like the state’s legalization of cannabis, is a quick and attractive solution because it doesn’t place an added burden on taxpayers to close the city’s pension funding holes.
I see the value in a casino, but the hope with casinos in particular is that tourists will visit, spend liberally and contribute money from outside the city into the city’s coffers. But relying on casinos and their patrons to breathe life back into our pension funds would mean that many average citizens would bear the brunt of the fix.
To revitalize the South Side and the entirety of the Southland, we have to pursue economic development solutions that won’t potentially put burdens on the lowest income groups in Illinois. We need to create high-quality, well-paying jobs that are mutually beneficial to all residents and, in particular, to those most in need.
There’s no such thing as a singular solution to our economic woes, but the creation of a South Suburban Airport is a great place to start. Illinois has been exploring the potential of a third airport for years — and has both money and nearly 6,000 acres of land in Will County set aside for one — but needs a champion to fight for it like others have done for cannabis and casinos. I have spent my entire adult life identifying solutions to the problems facing many of our communities, and I intend to be that champion.
The need for a South Suburban Airport is resounding. Illinois’ world ranking for cargo capacity has steadily dropped lower over the years, but the recent boom in e-commerce has led to a wider than ever gap between the demand for cargo and the state’s capacity to manage it. The area’s two airports — O’Hare and Midway — are landlocked, which severely restricts their ability to grow with and accommodate the trend. If Illinois wants to maintain its reputation as the country’s transportation hub, remain competitive with neighboring states and secure business in a region of Illinois that desperately needs it, it will have to turn elsewhere and look to the Southland.
And this third airport will represent growth in more than one way. Along with business capacity, it will bring jobs in the tens of thousands in a long-overlooked region of the state. Plans to date project the creation of up to 11,000 jobs in the construction phase and 15,000 on opening day. We know that Chicago’s South Side has been systematically disadvantaged, and calls for significant investments in the area are frequent. The South Suburban Airport would be an extremely effective way to deliver on those promises to the South Side and bridge the gap between the entire Southland and the rest of Illinois.
The South Suburban Airport is the economic engine that Illinois, and the entire Southland, require to enrich our revenue, reputation and residents. Coupling the legalization of marijuana and a new casino with a third airport will generate a steady flow of well-paying jobs for a region in need.
Moving forward, the South Suburban Airport must be a fixture in all conversations surrounding the creation of lasting opportunities for jobs and growth. Our financial future depends on it.

Real Madrid have won the 2021/22 Champions League after defeating Liverpool 1-0 in the final in Paris on Saturday night.
It's Los Blancos' 14th triumph in Europe's elite club competition and their first since 2018 when they beat the Reds 3-1 in Kyiv.
Vinicius Junior scored the game's only game, netting at the back stick from Federico Valverde's ball across the box, aided by some static Liverpool defending.
Los Blancos goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois was his side's hero, making a string of brilliant saves to keep Liverpool's potent attacking forward line at bay.
The victory completed a remarkable Champions League campaign. Having lost in the group stage to lowly Moldovan outfit Sheriff Tiraspol, Real came through to the knockout stages by beating Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Manchester City to set up the final against Liverpool.
The Reds were on top in patches throughout Paris' showpiece, with Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah both going close for Jurgen Klopp's side, but Courtois alongside defenders Dani Carvajal, David Alaba, Eder Militao and Ferland Mendy remained strong at the back.

NEW YORK, June 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --
WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the securities of Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. f/k/a Peridot Acquisition Corp. (NYSE: LICY) (NYSE: PDAC) between February 16, 2021 and March 23, 2022, inclusive (the "Class Period"), of the important June 20, 2022 lead plaintiff deadline in the securities class action commenced by the Firm.
SO WHAT: If you purchased Li-Cycle securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.
WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Li-Cycle class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=4885 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than June 20, 2022. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Li-Cycle's largest customer, Traxys North America LLC, is not actually a customer, but merely a broker providing working capital financial to the Company while Traxys tries to sell Li-Cycle's product to end customers; (2) the Company engaged in highly questionable related party transactions; (3) the Company's mark-to-model accounting is vulnerable to abuse and gave a false impression of growth; (4) a significant portion of the Company's reported revenues were derived from simply marking up receivables on products that had not been sold; (5) the Company's gross margins have likely been negative since inception; (6) the Company will require an additional $1 billion of funding to support its planned growth (which is a figure greater than the Company raised via the merger); and (7) as a result, defendants' public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
To join the Li-Cycle class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=4885 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.
No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Catawba County will hold a public hearing on its $306 million budget on Thursday.
The public will get a chance to comment on the county’s 2022-23 fiscal year budget during the hearing. The Catawba County Board of Commissioners is expected to vote on the budget at its June 6 meeting, Catawba County Marketing and Communications Director Amy McCauley said.
The budget would go into effect July 1.
The budget maintains the county’s property tax rate of 57 cents per $100 of property value. The budget is 6% less than the 2021-22 budget, largely because the county received federal COVID-19 funding and a state grant for school construction during the 2021-22 budget.
The general fund budget, which encompasses the operating cost of the core of the county government and does not include the federal money, would increase to $227,622,247 under the recommended budget.
The recommended general fund budget is 8.1% higher than the year before. The increase is mostly due to the county’s 6% wage increase for all employees and new $500 quarterly bonuses for all employees, according to the message from County Manager Mick Berry. His message is included in the budget.

The budget includes expected property tax revenue of $112.5 million and sales tax revenue of $48 million.
The recommended budget includes $10 million for school improvements, such as HVAC replacements, painting, paving and other maintenance and minor improvements.
The budget also includes $4 million for improvements to Hickory High School.
The budget, if approved, would give emergency services workers extra pay for night shifts and replace four ambulances.
As it stands, the new budget includes six new positions — one school charge nurse to oversee the county’s school nurses, an environmental health technician, two building services officials, a county planner and a position for a local government management fellow in the county manager’s office.
At Thursday’s budget meeting county commissioners will be able to formally propose changes to the recommended budget, McCauley said. | https://hickoryrecord.com/news/local/have-your-say-catawba-county-holding-public-hearing-on-306-million-budget/article_b6b53f7a-e1be-11ec-a99d-5b5abaca90ab.html | 2022-06-01T20:20:46Z | https://hickoryrecord.com/news/local/have-your-say-catawba-county-holding-public-hearing-on-306-million-budget/article_b6b53f7a-e1be-11ec-a99d-5b5abaca90ab.html | true | 1 |
Cabinet eases education norm for CRPF recruitment in two Chhattisgarh districts
As per the new guidelines issued by the Centre on Wednesday, the educational qualification requirement for constables (General Duty) in the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) has been relaxed from Class 10 to Class 8 for native tribal youth of three districts in South Chhattisgarh. The decision was taken at a meeting of the Union cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Under the new guidelines of recruitment, 400 tribal youths from interior areas of three districts namely Bijapur, Dantewada and Sukma of Chhattisgarh state will get employment opportunities,” read the statement released by the government. Apart from relaxation in educational requirement, relaxation in physical standards for recruitment will also be given by the Union ministry of home affairs.
The CRPF will “impart formal education” to the recruited trainees, along with providing study material, books and coaching assistance during the probation period, read the statement further. The government, however, said that the candidate’s service will only get confirmed once they acquire the required Class 10 qualification through CRPF’s training.
The probation period may be extended suitably, if required, to facilitate new recruits to acquire the prescribed education qualification. In order to facilitate them to take the Class 10 exam, these recruits will be registered with National Institute of Open Schools recognised by central and state governments, it said.
The CRPF is reserved for duties that involve maintenance of law and order, tackling counter insurgency and maintaining internal security.
Earlier, the Chhattisgarh based battalion, Bastariya Batallion in 2016-17 was recruiting Scheduled Tribe candidates from four tribal dominated districts, however, the system didn’t work since the recruits from interior areas could not compete with others in the Class-10 pass minimum requirement.

CHICAGO (AP) — Even as the nation reeled over the massacre of 19 children and two teachers at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, multiple mass shootings happened elsewhere over the Memorial Day weekend in areas both rural and urban. Single-death incidents still accounted for most gun fatalities.
Gunfire erupted in the predawn hours of Sunday at a festival in the town of Taft, Oklahoma, sending hundreds of revelers scattering and customers inside the nearby Boots Café diving for cover. Eight people ages 9 to 56 were shot, and one of them died.
Six children ages 13 to 15 were wounded Saturday night in a touristy quarter of Chattanooga, Tennessee. Two groups got into an altercation, and two people in one of them pulled guns and started shooting.
Ten people were wounded, and three law enforcement officers injured, in a shooting incident at a Memorial Day nighttime street gathering in Charleston, South Carolina.
And at a club and liquor store in Benton Harbor in southwestern Michigan, a 19-year-old man was killed and six other people were wounded after gunfire rang out among a crowd around 2:30 a.m. Monday. Police found multiple shell casings of various calibers.
Those and others met a common definition of a mass shooting, in which four or more people are shot. Such occurrences have become so regular, news of them is likely to fade fast.
There were at least two incidents in Chicago between late Friday and Monday that qualified as mass shootings, including one near a closed elementary school on the West Side in which the wounded included a 16-year-old girl.
Single-fatality shootings also rocked families and communities.
In Arkansas a 7-year-old girl was killed Saturday in a busy area near the Little Rock Zoo, in what police described as “an isolated event involving acquaintances.”
And on Chicago’s South Side, the body of a young man slain at an outdoor birthday party lay on the sidewalk early Sunday, covered by a white sheet. His mother stood nearby, crying.
Overall, Chicago recorded 32 gunfire incidents over the weekend in which 47 people were shot and nine died.
In the wake of the Uvalde shooting, by an 18-year-old who legally purchased an AR-style rifle, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and other Republican opponents of tougher gun laws quickly pointed at Chicago as an example of how such measures don’t work, saying, “more people are shot every weekend (there) than there are in schools in Texas.”
High rates of gun violence in Chicago have made a series of Democratic governments there, including that of current Mayor Lori Lightfoot, vulnerable to criticism — sometimes from within their own party.
But the assertions by Abbott and others are misleading and oversimplify the situation in the country’s third-largest city. Many guns used in the killing of Chicagoans were initially bought in other states with less stringent gun laws, like Indiana and Mississippi. Chicago officials also note that the city records fewer murders per capita than many other smaller U.S. cities.
Police chiefs there and in other cities cancelled days off to boost the numbers of officers over the holiday, hoping it would act as a deterrent. Independent conflict mediators also hit the streets, using social media to identify simmering conflicts with the potential to explode into real-world violence.
In Detroit, Police Chief James White promised to strictly enforce a curfew aimed at youths and teens after three people were wounded during a shooting earlier this month in Greektown, a popular downtown restaurant and entertainment district.
Such strategies may have worked in individual cases, but statistics from several cities didn’t indicate violence was kept at or below levels from previous years. Chicago’s Memorial Day weekend death toll was three times last year’s.
It’s long been a rule of thumb in northern cities that hot weather means more violence. Temperatures in Detroit and Chicago were in the 80s — unseasonably warm — during the three-day weekend, bringing more people outside and increasing the chances of clashes, often between rival gangs. Alcohol at holiday parties can fuel personal beefs, some of which first fester online.
“The seasons may not have much of an impact on shootings in Los Angeles, where the weather is always good,” said Rodney Phillips, a violence prevention worker and former gang member in Chicago. But in his city, Memorial Day weekend typically marks “the start of the killing season,” he said.
Residents like Yvonne Fields, of Detroit, say they are especially cautious when Memorial Day rolls around. She, her children and grandchildren spent time closer to home this weekend.
“The holidays are not like they used to be,” Fields said. “The gangs have taken over. They do drive-by shootings. Everyone is living in fear.”
Police in big cities often say most homicides have some tie-in to gangs, though others point to poverty and the desperation that comes with it as underlying causes.
An organizational shift over the past three decades, from top-down gangs led by identifiable leaders who could assert control to more fragmented, loosely structured groups, has also contributed to the violence.
“These gang factions are getting younger and younger, bolder and more impulsive,” Phillips said. “It’s alarming. It’s often children shooting children these days.
Malik Shabazz, who helps lead neighborhood safety and anti-crime patrols in Detroit, said the Detroit New Black Panther Nation/New Marcus Garvey Movement he founded looks for spikes in crime during the holidays when people gather in groups and have more free time away from work.
“What I see is both the perps and the victims of (shootings and violent crime) are becoming younger and younger, and the crime is becoming more heinous,” said Shabazz, 59. “And people bring their guns and people have beef, ‘now I can shoot you and I can stab you over an issue of respect, not talk it out or ignore it and walk it off.’”

Monkeypox continues to puzzle scientists as it spreads to more countries
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Scientists are trying to better understand why monkeypox is spreading rapidly across the world in regions that do not typically harbor the disease since the United Kingdom confirmed its first case of monkeypox in early May.
“We’ve never really seen this type of observation from monkeypox before, so this is particularly concerning,” said Andrea McCollum, an epidemiologist who heads the poxvirus team at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Over 550 confirmed cases of monkeypox in 30 countries have been detected globally, including approximately 18 in the United States, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) and the CDC.
“We’re seeing cases all appearing in a relatively short period of time. We’re seeing that in a few days, in a couple of weeks, we’re seeing over 500 cases. This is different. This has not been seen before,” said Rosamund Lewis, WHO’s technical lead for monkeypox.
The CDC notes monkeypox belongs to the same genus of virus as smallpox, but after smallpox was eradicated by worldwide vaccination in 1980, waning immunity against monkeypox may have contributed the surge in cases since smallpox vaccination is no longer recommended, according to Nature.
WHO: MONKEYPOX NOT EXPECTED TO BECOME PANDEMIC, MUCH REMAINS UNKNOWN
Africa usually has a few thousand cases in an average year, mostly in the western and central parts of the region, but just in the past week the cases outside Africa have exceeded the total number detected outside the continent since 1970, when the first human case was detected.
But even though scientists are worried about the rapid spread of monkeypox, it’s no coronavirus, according to Nature.
Monkeypox is not as infectious as SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, because it does not transmit from person to person as easily and because we have vaccines to prevent it, said Jay Hooper, a virologist at the United States Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases in Fort Detrick, Maryland.
SARS-CoV-2 spreads through tiny droplets in the air called aerosols, but scientists believe monkeypox spreads primarily through close contact with bodily fluids, so a person infected with monkeypox will infect a lot fewer close contacts than someone infected with the coronavirus, Hooper added.
Research from sequencing viral genomes from people infected with monkeypox in Belgium, France, Germany, Portugal and the United States suggests the monkeypox strain resembles the much less lethal strain found in West Africa, which has a death rate of less than 1% in rural populations. In comparison, the much more virulent strain in Central Africa has a fatality rate up to 10%, according to Nature.
MONKEYPOX AND ENDEMIC DISEASES BECOMING MORE PERSISTEN, WHO SAYS
These sequences are most similar to the cluster of monkeypox cases that cropped up outside outside Africa in 2018 and 2019 and were linked to travel in West Africa.
So the simplest explanation is the person who had the first non-African case of the year became infected through either animal contact or close contact with someone already infected with the virus while traveling to a similar region in Africa, says Bernie Moss, a virologist at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
Researchers hope to discover if the rapid rise in cases are from a viral mutation that allows monkeypox to transmit more easily, says Dr. Raina MacIntyre, an epidemiologist specializing in infectious diseases at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia.
But unlike SARS-CoV-2, which is an RNA virus that is adept at evading immunity from vaccines or prior infection, monkeypox is a DNA virus, which are known to be better at repairing mutations than RNA viruses. This means the monkeypox virus is less likely to suddenly mutate and make person-person transmission easier, MacIntyre added.
But it’s still “deeply concerning” monkeypox cases are rising in people with no connection to one another, McCollum said.
Scientists are also trying to discover why the case clusters include mostly men ages 20-50 years old, many who have sex with men (MSM), but MacIntyre says it could be coincidental that the virus was introduced into a MSM community and continued to spread as it is not known to be a sexually transmitted infection.
United Kingdom Health Security Agency, however, recommends symptomatic monkeypox patients should abstain from sexual activity while lesions are present even though there is no known evidence of the virus in genital excretions. In addition, they recommend use of condoms for eight weeks after infection.
Although the CDC notes there is no specific treatment for monkeypox, several antivirals may prove to be beneficial.
In addition, the United States has a stockpile of millions of smallpox vaccines, two of which are approved and are generally effective also against monkeypox.
The CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices recently published recommendations to limit the use of the smallpox vaccine known as Jynneos to healthcare workers and laboratory personnel who work closely with the virus.
McCollum noted these therapies will not be deployed on a large scale, but instead close contacts of those infected with monkeypox will be vaccinated in a method called “ring vaccination.”

“The first part is to identify those who are infected and to isolate them and make sure that they get the care they need,” said Dr. Raj Panjabi, who leads the White House’s monkeypox response.
“The second part is to ensure we vaccinate those who’ve been exposed to the infected individuals. If we do that again and again – and that’s our approach at the White House and across the government – then we have a better chance of ending this outbreak.” | https://1010wcsi.com/fox-health/monkeypox-continues-to-puzzle-scientists-as-it-spreads-to-more-countries/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=monkeypox-continues-to-puzzle-scientists-as-it-spreads-to-more-countries | 2022-06-01T20:24:36Z | https://1010wcsi.com/fox-health/monkeypox-continues-to-puzzle-scientists-as-it-spreads-to-more-countries/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=monkeypox-continues-to-puzzle-scientists-as-it-spreads-to-more-countries | true | 2 |

The combined enterprise has over one million creators available to create content on a global basis.
Snapwire and StudioNow began discussions late last year when leadership from the two organizations determined that both leverage the creator gig-economy in very similar ways. The combination of StudioNow's focus on comprehensive video solutions together with Snapwire's successful focus on a self-serve photography and video marketplace is both synergistic and a compelling offering to both companies' global clients.
"For the past 12 years, StudioNow has been instrumental in helping large brands and media companies scale up content creation by matching them with over 12,000 highly vetted and award-winning creators worldwide," said David Mason, Founder, and CEO of StudioNow.

After the integration of the Snapwire technology, StudioNow will offer brands and businesses multiple options for searching, sourcing, hiring, communicating, and transacting with the Creator Economy via these initial engagement options:
- Managed services, which include dedicated producer(s) either on-site or through virtual production support, for large enterprise brands.
- On-demand producer support on a per-production basis.
- Production project bid posting affording brands to review bids from visual creators in the network.
- Hourly or permanent producer engagements.
- Full-time producer staffing placement.
- A self-serve visual production option via the marketplace platform to execute one-off projects.
Chad Newell, Founder and CEO of Snapwire, said, "Joining forces with StudioNow will give our Creators greater opportunities with higher payouts. When we were actively looking for a strategic partner, there was no other company better positioned to leverage Snapwire's technology than StudioNow. With Snapwire's marketplace platform and StudioNow's production services, we'll be a powerhouse fulfilling our mission - to empower creators to do what they love."
This acquisition is StudioNow's first in a strategy of consolidating a fragmented segment of the creative industry. "With the Snapwire acquisition, we now have a platform that can handle not only our combined networks but also one that will support that of other acquisition targets, enabling StudioNow to emerge as a market leader within the custom visual content arena," said CEO, David Mason.
Nashville-based, Martin Miller LLP acted as legal representation for StudioNow, and Cooley LLP acted as legal representation for Snapwire Media, Inc. Madison Alley served as the exclusive financial advisor to StudioNow.

FDA Delays Decision on TGTX's BLA for Multiple Sclerosis Drug
TG Therapeutics, Inc. TGTX announced that the FDA has extended the review period of its biologics licensing applications (BLA), seeking approval for ublituximab as a potential treatment for patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (RMS).
Following this three-month extension, the new PDUFA action date for ublituximab stands as Dec 28, 2022, from the previous action date of Sep 28, 2022, set by the FDA.
Post this announcement, shares of TG Therapeutics fell 14.5% on May 31. The decline was likely as investors were not happy with the extension of the review period.
Shares of TGTX have plunged 76.7% in the year-to-date period compared with the industry’s 18.2% decline.
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
The delay is on account of the additional data submitted by TG Therapeutics on the FDA’s request during the ongoing review of ublituximab. Per the regulatory body, the information submitted by TGTX constitutes a major amendment to the data filed in its earlier BLA. The information comprised an integration and summary of certain clinical information, previously provided to the FDA.
The BLA filing is based on data from the two phase III studies, ULTIMATE I and ULTIMATE II, which evaluated the safety and efficacy of ublituximab against Sanofi’s SNY Aubagio (teriflunomide) in participants suffering RMS.
Both ULTIMATE I and ULTIMATE II studies achieved their primary endpoint, indicating that patients treated with ublituximab showed a statistically significant reduction in the annualized relapse rate (ARR) compared to patients treated with Sanofi’s teriflunomide over a 96-week period.
Aubagio is a blockbuster drug acquired by Sanofi upon buying Genzyme Corporation. The drug is approved by the FDA for treating RMS. During the first quarter of 2022, SNY’s Aubagio sales declined 6.6%, hurt by lower sales in the U.S. market due to competitive launches and pricing pressure.
A potential FDA approval of TG Therapeutics’ ublituximab will provide a new option to patients with RMS, which can be administered in a one-hour infusion every six months after receiving the first dose of ublituximab.
Following the FDA’s decision to withdraw the regulatory nod granted to TGTX’s sole marketed drug Ukoniq (umbralisib) effective May 31, 2022, TG Therapeutics has no approved product in its portfolio.
Ukoniq had received an FDA approval under the accelerated pathway in February 2021 for treating relapsed/refractory marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) and follicular lymphoma (FL). The regulatory agency’s decision to withdraw the approval granted to Ukoniq is based on TG Therapeutics’ voluntary decision to withdraw the drug from sale.
The above decision was taken by TGTX after an updated data from a phase III UNITY CLL study demonstrated an increasing imbalance in the secondary efficacy endpoint of overall survival. The UNITY CLL study evaluated a combination of ublituximab and Ukoniq in patients with both treatment-naïve and relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
Based on the above data, TG Therapeutics also withdrew the previously filed biologics license application (BLA)/supplemental new drug application (sNDA) seeking approval for the ublituximab-Ukoniq combo to treat adult patients with CLL and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).

The agency that mediates disputes between Canada and the United States over shared waters is pleading with the federal Liberals to join an investigation into contamination from British Columbia coal mines before the Americans move on their own.
In a May 13 letter, the International Joint Commission asked Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to commit Canada to collaborating with the U.S. on studying and finding a solution to selenium from Teck Resource's Elk Valley mines that ends up in rivers and lakes south of the border.
"We have heard from agencies, stakeholders, and Indigenous communities ... about their assessments that the problem is growing more critical," says the letter, addressed to both Trudeau and U.S. President Joe Biden. "We understand the United States government is discussing the merits of a unilateral reference to the (commission) on this matter.
"We believe it is in the best interests of all concerned if a joint reference were made to the (commission)."
A response from Global Affairs Canada was not immediately available.
The 100-year-old commission was founded to administer the 1909 Boundary Waters Treaty between the U.S. and Canada. Its job is to oversee projects that affect water flows across the border. A reference is how the commission investigates and seeks solutions.
Ottawa has already turned down one request for a reference into selenium in the Elk Valley from the Ktunaxa First Nation in B.C., made in December.
That decision outraged the Ktunaxa.
"We are stunned that Canada can, in this day of reconciliation and public vows by the Prime Minister to fully implement the UN Declaration, commit such a disrespectful act," said a May 6 letter from the First Nation to Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly and Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault.
The commission warns the issue "is causing increasing conflict."
Montana and Idaho have set standards for allowable levels of selenium in their waters at 0.8 micrograms per litre. The letter says selenium levels are now 4.99 micrograms per litre in Lake Koocanusa and 1.4 in the Kootenai River, both of which lap against American shores.
"The selenium contamination, first identified more than three decades ago, has continued to worsen, with no significant binational co-operation to protect the water or aquatic and human life," the letter says.
While rarely harmful to humans, selenium can damage fish populations by lowering their reproductive success.
Teck has said the allowable levels in Montana and Idaho are unreasonable. The company has filed a large request under U.S. Freedom of Information legislation to examine how they were developed.
"The water column criterion is actually below natural background levels in some upstream waterways," said Teck spokesman Chris Stannell in an email.
"Data shows that selenium levels in the Koocanusa Reservoir are safe, have been safe for as long as data has been collected and are lower than in many other water bodies in the state of Montana."
Teck has long struggled with selenium contamination from its mines in B.C.'s Elk Valley. In March 2021, the company was fined $60 million for that pollution, the largest fine ever levied under the Fisheries Act.
Teck says it has spent $1.2 billion on water treatment and plans to spend a further $750 million. Stannell said about 95 per cent of selenium is now removed from water.
"Later this year we will have four times the water treatment capacity we did in 2020. We expect to achieve the important objective of stabilizing and reducing the selenium trend across the Elk Valley."

CHANDLER, Ariz., June 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The University of Arizona Global Campus (UAGC) is excited to announce the launch of a public version of its Green Zone Certification program, which prepares faculty and staff to better understand the experience of veterans, service members, and their families.
In line with its commitment to a supportive environment for all UAGC students, the University is dedicated to actualizing that environment for military-affiliated students by empowering those who can best help them transition from military service to university life. The UAGC public Green Zone Certification program will provide free training to other higher education institutions to help them better communicate the strengths and challenges of the military-affiliated student population. They also will be better equipped to refer those students to appropriate services when needed.
"UAGC prides itself on being a military-friendly institution and believes in military cultural competency at its core," Stephanie Cowsert, Vice President, Financial Aid and Military Policy & Compliance at UAGC, said. "Through trainings like Green Zone, we have elevated supportive practices for our military students in ways that help them be better served by faculty and staff. By sharing Green Zone training with our higher education counterparts, it's the desire of UAGC to develop more allies for service members, veterans, and their family members pursuing their educational goals."
With the Post 9/11-GI Bill, higher education has become more accessible to veterans, service members, and their families in the past decade. Green Zone training has become the prominent mode of educating staff and faculty on the unique needs of these students. With more than 25% of its student population being military affiliated, UAGC established a Green Zone Certification training that could be completed asynchronously. UAGC is proud to offer this training and certification to all interested universities online and at no cost.
The Green Zone Certification consists of six modules covering topics like military finance options, transition, and service-connected disabilities. The material included provides foundational knowledge on how to best serve military-affiliated students. To receive the Green Zone Certification and badge, you must complete all six modules and pass the final assessment.
Visit the UAGC website to learn more. If interested in participating in the UAGC Green Zone Certification program, please contact military@uagc.edu.
The University of Arizona Global Campus (UAGC) is an independent university that is operated in affiliation with the University of Arizona.

ULSTER BANK HAS announced that it will sell a €6 billion portfolio of tracker and linked mortgages to AIB as it prepares to exit the Irish market.
Current customers of Ulster Bank will be contacted in the coming weeks and months and do not need to take any action now.
The portfolio comprises around 47,000 customers. The same, which is subject to obtaining relevant regulatory approvals, is expected to occur in the second quarter of 2023.
Ulster Bank Chief Executive Jane Howard said: “Today’s announcement is another significant step in Ulster Bank’s orderly, phased withdrawal from the market. I am pleased that AIB will be acquiring this portfolio, subject to any relevant regulatory approvals.
“The most important message today is to confirm to potentially impacted Ulster Bank tracker mortgage customers that their tracker mortgage product and their legal and regulatory protections do not change as a consequence of this transaction. We want to reassure customers that they will continue to retain their tracker mortgage in line with their mortgage documentation.
“Following any relevant approvals, we will work closely with AIB to ensure that the transfer of the portfolio is as smooth as possible.”
Ulster Bank, which is owned by NatWest, has previously told customers that they will have to repay any overdrafts in full before it exits Ireland.
Officials from Ulster Bank and KBC Bank Ireland, the two banks that have announced plans to leave the Irish market over the coming year or so, did not rule out the possibility that unpaid overdrafts could eventually be sold on to debt collection agencies.

Answering questions from TDs and senators at a meeting of the Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, Ulster Bank chief executive Jane Howard urged anyone having difficulty paying their overdraft to contact the bank immediately.
After the six-month notice period has lapsed, if the customer has not opened a new account with another bank, Ulster Bank will close their old account and give them a cheque for any money left in it.
Howard said the bank had about 70,000 overdraft customers and appealed to them to make contact with the bank to discuss their options.
But in a testy exchange with Sinn Féin finance spokesperson Pearse Doherty — who asked what will happen to those customers who have not been able to pay their overdraft within the six-month window — Howard said the bank will assist customers on a case-by-case basis. | https://www.thejournal.ie/ulster-bank-customers-tracker-mortgage-5780788-Jun2022/ | 2022-06-01T20:45:11Z | https://www.thejournal.ie/ulster-bank-customers-tracker-mortgage-5780788-Jun2022/ | false | 1 |

A 70-year-old native doctor believed to be working for the gunmen that beheaded an Anambra lawmaker, Okechukwu Okoye has been arrested.
One of the gunmen, who was arrested last week claimed that they were working with the native doctor who was at large.
The native doctor was said to have been traced to Unubi, in Nnewi South local government area of Anambra State.
Anambra State Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Mr. Tochukwu Ikenga, however, declined to speak on the arrest, saying that he would not want to speak on the matter so as not to jeopardize investigations.
“We don’t want to disclose some of our strategies. Let them know that the police command is not folding its hands in unmasking these killers.
“These things are intelligence-driven and there are already eyewitnesses. In due time, we will let Nigerians know as we will bring all the perpetrators to book.
“Please, help us to tell Nigerians that a lot is being done.”
A human rights group, the International Society for the Rule of Law had in a publication yesterday said the 70-year-old herbalist was apprehended by officers of the Department of State Services ( DSS).
Chairman of the board of directors of the group, Mr. Emeka Umeagbalasi said the arrest was in connection with the abduction, disappearance, beheading and decapitation of Hon Okechukwu Okoye, an Isuofia Aguata-born Anambra State Assembly lawmaker who was abducted on 15th May 2022.
He said that the native doctor was technologically trailed after he was found to have used the beheaded lawmaker’s sim-card to make criminal calls, adding that even after exhausting the sim-card ‘credit’, he completed the calls with his own cell phone.
He added, “The slayers of the beheaded lawmaker were earlier traced to Unubi where ransom running into millions of naira was physically delivered. The slayers collected the ransom and still went ahead to slay and decapitate the lawmaker.”
“The cell phone of the slain lawmaker was put in monitoring devices during which it was found to have been used by the 70-year-old herbalist to make several criminal calls days after he was beheaded.
“It was at this juncture that one of the ‘soft targets’ was arrested in Igboukwu leading to third party identification and location of the arrested kingpin.
“Between early hours of 28th (last Friday) and 29th (last Saturday) May 2022, the house of the arrested kingpin was raided after he was tracked to be at home.
“He made a magical escape after several gunshots were fired at him and he escaped by jumping into a ditch. After recovering several incriminating items, including guns and bullets and his portrait, the operatives trapped him by leaving behind one of his cell phones. Between 30th May and early hours of 31st May 2022, the cell phone was tracked to a private hospital in Awka, forcing the operatives of the DSS to storm the clinic where he was arrested alive in bandage while trying to board a tricycle”. | https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/06/security-agents-arrest-native-doctor-allegedly-working-with-gunmen-that-beheaded-anambra-lawmaker/ | 2022-06-01T20:48:00Z | https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/06/security-agents-arrest-native-doctor-allegedly-working-with-gunmen-that-beheaded-anambra-lawmaker/ | false | 1 |

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, Pure uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, and free cash flow.
We use these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain expenses and expenditures such as stock-based compensation expense, payments to former shareholders of acquired companies, payroll tax expense related to stock-based activities, amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs related to long-term debt, amortization of intangible assets acquired from acquisitions, acquisition-related transaction and integration expenses, and costs associated with the exit of certain operations that may not be indicative of our ongoing core business operating results. Pure believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when analyzing historical performance and liquidity and planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and our non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures, please see the tables captioned "Reconciliations of non-GAAP results of operations to the nearest comparable GAAP measures" and "Reconciliation from net cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow," included at the end of this release.

CIENFUEGOS, Cuba — Like many Cubans before him, Roberto De la Yglesia left most of his family behind when he made his way to the United States with only his son in 2015, hoping that he could soon bring his wife and daughters to join him.
Years later, the mechanical engineer in New Jersey and his family back in Cienfuegos, Cuba, are still waiting — with a mixture of renewed hope and skepticism — now that the Biden administration has said it will reactivate the long-stalled Family Reunification Program, which lets Cubans legally in the U.S. bring close relatives.
“My life is on pause,” said his wife, Danmara Triana, sitting on the sofa of her house in Cienfuegos while surrounded by aging photos of the couple’s life together. A few feet away, her 21-year-old daughter Claudia was awaiting the return from school of 7-year-old Alice.
“My day to day life hangs on this, — to see my son, to see my husband,” Triana said. The 48-year-old accountant said she repeatedly checks the website of the U.S. Embassy in Havana for news.
“I get up in the morning and look at the telephone. Will I have an interview (for a visa) or won’t I have an interview?”
The Biden administration says that roughly 20,000 applications for family reunification visas have built up since 2017. That’s when President Donald Trump effectively shut down the program by withdrawing diplomatic personnel from Cuba in response to a spate of mysterious illnesses among diplomats that many suspected were the result of some sort of directed wave attack.
But many similar incidents happened elsewhere — even in Washington — and the CIA has now determined they were unlikely to be the result of attacks by Russia or other foreign adversaries.
While the administration said in April it would begin resuming the program, it has not yet offered a timeline for ramping up the U.S. diplomatic presence in Cuba.
So Triana and De la Yglesia wait.
U.S. officials told the couple in 2017, shortly before diplomats were withdrawn, that they qualified for the program and in 2020 they believed they had finished all the paperwork and paid all the fees.
Then the COVID-19 pandemic hit, adding to complications.
“I feel stranded. I’m not based anywhere,” said Claudia, who said she had dropped out of medical school, feeling “horribly unmotivated.”
The withdrawal of diplomats was only one of many steps by the Trump administration to isolate Cuba and backtrack from a dramatic opening to the island under President Barack Obama.
Trump enacted more than 200 measures, ranging from a ban on cruise ships to limits on money sent from the U.S. to restrictions on U.S, visitors.
Biden announced he would undo some — but far from all — of the Trump-era restrictions.
With consular operations idled in Havana, U.S. officials told Cubans to seek visas at the operations in Guyana, across the Caribbean on the South American mainland — a costly and impractical option for most.
So with Cuba’s economy in dire shape, increasing numbers have tried to reach the U.S. illegally, getting to South America or Mexico and making their perilous way to the U.S. border, adding to record wave of immigration.
U.S. Customs and Border Patrol says it detained Cubans 79,800 times at the U.S. border in the six months from October 2021 through March 2022 — more than double the figure for the full 12 months ending in September 2021 and five times the figure for the year before that.
Next door to Triana’s house, 61-year-old Natacha González lives with her two grandchildren. Her daughter, like De la Yglesia, now lives in the U.S. and began the reunification process in 2017.
“I can speak for all the fathers and mothers who are in this country sacrificing so that there is, can be a correct (legal) migration of our families,” said González’s daughter, Yanelis León, in a video call from Florida.
“I feel like I have no oxygen. ... I’ve spent years at this and it’s not right that we are still waiting,” she added. “I am not going to involve my children in a migration across borders where I am going to lose them. I want to do things right.”

DUBLIN, Ohio (AP) — Jack Nicklaus says he met with a Saudi Arabian group as a courtesy and had “zero interest” in running a rival golf circuit now being led by Greg Norman.
“I don’t care what kind of money they would have thrown at me. My allegiance has been to the PGA Tour,” Nicklaus said Tuesday at his annual news conference ahead of the Memorial. “I grew up on the PGA Tour. I helped found the PGA Tour as it is today. My allegiance is there and it’s going to stay there.”
Nicklaus was unusually brief, with three questions related to the Saudi-funded LIV Golf Invitational series that is set to start next week outside of London and has an eight-tournament schedule, five of them in the United States.
Norman has not announced the 48-man field that will be competing for $20 million in individual play and $5 million for a team concept. The PGA Tour and European tour has denied releases to their players under threat of losing their membership.
Nicklaus had said in an interview with the Firepit Collective that the Saudi group had offered him “something in excess of $100 million,” adding the job was “probably similar” to what Norman is doing. Norman is CEO of LIV Golf Investments, which is organizing the rival league and has pumped $300 million into other Asian Tour events.
In the Firepit Collective story, Nicklaus said he turned the offer down verbally and in writing.
Nicklaus said his design company is building a golf course in Saudi Arabia, and the same group involved with the course came to Florida to meet with him.
“And they proposed this thing to me,” Nicklaus said. “You know, I did it out of courtesy to them because we’re doing a golf course for them. I’ve got zero interest in wanting to do something like that.”
Nicklaus was part of the group that led players to break away from the PGA of America in 1968. The PGA of America oversaw club professionals and tour events, and tour players felt they needed their own division, which eventually became the PGA Tour.
Nicklaus looked much better Tuesday than when when he was on the first tee at the Masters as an honorary starters. He said his inflammation from arthritis has gone down, and he wanted to start playing golf. Along with playing a round at Augusta National with his family, he played consecutive days at Muirfield Village ahead of the Memorial.
He said he did not play at all last year. The down side?
“I haven’t made birdie yet this year,” he said.

Dubuque's Backpocket Brewing will open a new taproom this fall in Johnston, Iowa, featuring beers brewed at the original Coralville, Iowa, brewery as well as a full food menu.
The venue, known as Backpocket Pin and Pixel will include both a Duckpin Bowling alley and a retro arcade in the Johnston Town Center.
This marks the second satellite taproom for Backpocket, with the first located in Dubuque's Millwork District. “In many ways the Pin and Pixel is modeled after the Dubuque taproom, with a similar arcade, event room and menu," said Backpocket founder Jacob Simmons. “However we are diversifying our entertainment options with the addition of Duckpin Bowling and expanding the menu into a full restaurant”.
Duckpin Bowling a bar-friendly format of traditional bowling with shorter lanes, fatter pins and lighter balls.
Backpocket has been in the craft beer business since 2012, distributing beer at stores, restaurants and bars across Iowa.

CHICAGO, June 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Ryerson Holding Corporation (NYSE: RYI), a leading value-added processor and distributor of industrial metals, announced today its acquisition of Ford Tool Steels ("FTS"), a tool steel processor based out of St. Louis, Missouri.
FTS has been in business for over 75 years, serving customers across the Midwest United States with tool steel and alloys, as well as cut-to-length sawing, plate sawing, and grinding and milling services. FTS's sawing and machining capabilities are aligned with those of Southern Tool Steel, a member of the Ryerson Family of Companies acquired in 2015. This strategic acquisition presents an opportunity to recognize synergies between the two brands as Ryerson expands its tool steel franchise.
"The FTS commitment to quality and service is well aligned with Ryerson's focus on providing excellent customer experiences," said South Region President Eric McGill. "We welcome FTS to the Ryerson Family of Companies and look forward to continued growth as we work to better serve tool steel customers across our business."
"Ford Tool Steel is excited to align with a 180-year-old leader in metals distribution," said Susan Gasser, owner of Ford Tool Steel. "Joining the Ryerson Family of Companies will help us continue to bring value for our customers for years to come."
Ryerson is a leading value-added processor and distributor of industrial metals, with operations in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and China. Founded in 1842, Ryerson has around 4,000 employees in approximately 100 locations. Visit Ryerson at www.ryerson.com.
Certain statements made in this presentation and other written or oral statements made by or on behalf of the Company constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including statements regarding our future performance, as well as management's expectations, beliefs, intentions, plans, estimates, objectives, or projections relating to the future. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "objectives," "goals," "preliminary," "range," "believes," "expects," "may," "estimates," "will," "should," "plans," or "anticipates" or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. The Company cautions that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and may involve significant risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may vary materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Among the factors that significantly impact our business are: the cyclicality of our business; the highly competitive, volatile, and fragmented metals industry in which we operate; fluctuating metal prices; our substantial indebtedness and the covenants in instruments governing such indebtedness; the integration of acquired operations; regulatory and other operational risks associated with our operations located inside and outside of the United States; impacts and implications of adverse health events, including the COVID-19 pandemic; work stoppages; obligations under certain employee retirement benefit plans; the ownership of a majority of our equity securities by a single investor group; currency fluctuations; and consolidation in the metals industry. Forward-looking statements should, therefore, be considered in light of various factors, including those set forth above and those set forth under "Risk Factors" in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Did you sell or otherwise dispose of securities of Twitter between March 24, 2022 and April 1, 2022? If so, please visit Twitter, Inc. Shareholder Class Action Lawsuit or contact Peter Allocco at (212) 951-2030 or pallocco@bernlieb.com to discuss your rights.
NEW YORK, June 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Bernstein Liebhard LLP, a nationally acclaimed investor rights law firm, reminds investors of the deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in a securities class action lawsuit that has been filed on behalf of investors who sold or otherwise disposed of the securities of Twitter, Inc. ("Twitter" or the "Company") (NYSE: TWTR) between March 24, 2022 and April 1, 2022, inclusive (the "Class Period"). The lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Elon Musk ("Musk") is the founder of Tesla and SpaceX, and according to Forbes, is the richest person in the world.
Beginning in January 2022, Musk started to acquire shares of Twitter. By March 14, 2022, Musk had acquired more than a 5% ownership stake in Twitter.
Pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and SEC Rule 13d-1 promulgated thereunder, 17 C.F.R. § 240.13d-1(a), Musk was required to file a Schedule 13 with the SEC within 10 days of passing the 5% ownership threshold in Twitter, or March 24, 2022.
Musk did not file a Schedule 13 with the SEC within the required time and instead continued to amass Twitter shares, eventually acquiring a 9.1% stake in the Company before finally filing a Schedule 13 on April 4, 2022.
When Musk finally filed the required Schedule 13, thereby revealing his ownership stake in Twitter, the Company's shares rose from a closing price of $39.31 per share on Friday, April 1, 2022, to close at $49.97 per share on April 4, 2022 – an increase of approximately 27%.
Investors who sold securities of Twitter stock between March 24, 2022, when Musk was required to have disclosed his Twitter ownership, and before the Monday, April 4, 2022 disclosure, missed the resulting price increase as the market reacted to Musk's purchases and were damaged thereby.
By failing to disclose his ownership stake via Schedule 13, Musk was able to acquire shares of Twitter less expensively during the Class Period.
If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than June 13, 2022. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Your ability to share in any recovery doesn't require that you serve as lead plaintiff. If you choose to take no action, you may remain an absent class member.
If you sold or otherwise disposed of TWTR securities, and/or would like to discuss your legal rights and options please visit Twitter, Inc. Shareholder Class Action Lawsuit or contact Peter Allocco at (212) 951-2030 or pallocco@bernlieb.com.
Since 1993, Bernstein Liebhard LLP has recovered over $3.5 billion for its clients. In addition to representing individual investors, the Firm has been retained by some of the largest public and private pension funds in the country to monitor their assets and pursue litigation on their behalf. As a result of its success litigating hundreds of lawsuits and class actions, the Firm has been named to The National Law Journal's "Plaintiffs' Hot List" thirteen times and listed in The Legal 500 for ten consecutive years.

BERLIN (AP) — When Eden Cami closes her eyes and starts singing ancient tunes in Arabic and Hebrew, Jewish-Israeli bassist Or Rozenfeld plays the contrabass, and Syrian band member Wassim Mukdad creates sparkling sounds on his 12-string oud, they take their audience on a musical journey through the Middle East.
Yet the three musicians all live far from there — in Germany. Back in their native region, they likely would be unable to perform together due to long-standing hostilities between their governments and societies.
“It took us 3,500 kilometers to be able to meet, although it’s like a two-hour drive by car,” says Mukdad, 37, referring to the theoretical driving distance between their homes in neighboring Syria and Israel — because in reality people cannot legally cross from Syria into Israel or vice versa.
“The borders in the Middle East are places to separate people,” Mukdad added.
Mukdad came to Berlin in 2016, a refugee who says he was tortured during Syria’s civil war. Cami, 35, who is Arabic and from the Druze minority in northern Israel, came to the German capital seeking freedom and tranquility.
Rozenfeld, the grandson of Holocaust survivors, came in search of an affordable, cosmopolitan city where he didn’t have to take on a second job to make a living as a musician. Borys Slowikowski, the drummer who joined the group more recently, is an immigrant from Poland.
Cami initiated their band, the Kayan Project, in 2017.
Kayan, the Arabic word for existence, is also the theme of their music and togetherness. In creating and playing songs, they continually learn how much they have in common and how close the roots of their cultures and languages are despite all the hatred they grew up with.
“As musicians we are all very similar,” says Rozenfeld, 32. “I wouldn’t even call us a mixed band because ‘mixed’ is only a concept if you put ethnicity first — but we put our music first.”
Cami, who grew up speaking Arabic and Hebrew, says it was natural for her to use both languages for her songs.
“I definitely dream in them and sing in them and think in them and feel in them,” she told The Associated Press earlier this week in Berlin, where the band was performing aboard a docked boat on the Havel river.
“I find it a very interesting way to live an identity that is complex, that is not just one thing,” she added. “And I feel very happy to express it in art.”
Back in the Middle East, Syrians are still fighting a civil war, Israeli Jews and Palestinians have been battling over their land for decades, and relations among the neighboring countries are overshadowed by past wars. In Berlin, the artists can celebrate what unites them instead of bemoaning their divisions.
“The idea is that we can make culture together, although we don’t share 100% of the political views, of the backgrounds,” said Mukdad, an atheist with Muslim parents. “We can start communicating with each other. We can start a dialogue.”
On Sunday night, Cami, wearing a dark-green dress and gray stiletto boots, opened the show with a song in Hebrew called “Ahavat Neurai,” or “First love,” followed by an Arabic song called “Ghesh,” or “Cheat.”
Many of the songs the band played were well-known Israeli or Arabic tunes; some they wrote themselves.
“Language, literature, religion, culture, music, food, climate, geography — we bring all of those memories and images with us,” said Mukdad. “And then to put it into music, it will be like a garden full of flowers from a lot of colors.”
“Dancing for No One,” which was written by Rozenfeld, is the title track of their first album. It was released in April. The lyrics — the only song in English — are both melancholic and hopeful.
“Walking to a place I long to be, I hear the river flow to the sea, I feel the waves come back to me … My thoughts are clear, heartbeats are slow. Stones mark a path to the unknown,” Cami sang as Mukdad hid his face behind black curly hair playing the oud. Rozenfeld, whose bald-shaved head was covered with a flat cap, moved to the rhythm while playing the contrabass.
“They’re all fantastic musicians,” said Jonas Berndt, a Swedish musician living in Berlin, who’d come to see the band.
The band had been invited to play during the opening week of the “Jewish Theater Boat MS Goldberg” — another unique Berlin creation.
The idea of presenting art related to Jewish culture — theater, music, literature — on a boat was conceived by a group of artists calling themselves “Discover Jewish Europe” a few years ago. Due to the pandemic and financial challenges, the show boat only opened last week.
The boat, which in the past was used to ship gravel across Germany’s rivers, will be docked on the Havel all summer, then move to the Spree river in Berlin’s downtown area in the fall, and in the future tour Germany on various waterways.
Max Doehlemann, one of the creators of the Jewish Theater Boat and a musician himself, explained the venue’s mission.
“It’s about dialogue, intercultural dialogue, the fight against antisemitism and racism,” he said. “We just hope that with our diverse program we can represent a lot of what constitutes the Jewish existence in all its facets .”

Note from Zennie62Media and OaklandNewsNow.com : this video-blog post demonstrates the full and live operation of the latest updated version of an experimental Zennie62Media , Inc. mobile media video-blogging system network that was launched June 2018. This is a major part of Zennie62Media , Inc.’s new and innovative approach to the production of news media. What we call “The Third Wave of Media”. The uploaded video is from a YouTube channel. When the YouTube video channel for CNBC International TV uploads a video it is automatically uploaded to and formatted automatically at the Oakland News Now site and Zennie62-created and owned social media pages. The overall objective here, on top of our is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours – is the use of the existing YouTube social graph on any subject in the World. Now, news is reported with a smartphone and also by promoting current content on YouTube: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary, or having a camera crew to shoot what is already on YouTube. The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners.

Oakland News Now Blog- Famous And Notable People In And From Oakland, California
Zennie62Media, Inc. is proud to present this new section of Oakland News Now Blog. Called "Famous And Notable People In And From Oakland, California", it presents a kind of short list of people we call Oaklanders. Some of them, like Tom Hanks, are nationally known. Others, like Mary Morris Lawrence and Former Oakland Mayor Elihu Harris, are locally and regionally known.
Mary Morris Lawrence: America's First Female Photojournalist
As I write this I'm sitting here watching the funeral for Senator Ted Kennedy and preparing myself to attend the memorial service for Mary Morris Lawrence.
This is a hard day. To start, it's a day that marks the passing of two incredible people; one I never got to personally know, the other I did personally know. Both changed the society they were in.
It's hard for me to accept the passing of Mary because her spirit was so powerful I can't see her as anything but here and alive. I suppose that's why it took me so long to write anything about this moment. Aside from the fact that this has been my sixth memorial or funeral this year, it's just something that's plain hard to acknowledge.
Mary was America's first female photojournalist, and one who knew many, from Orson Wells to Humphrey Bogart. But to me, Mary was always the bright buzzing light in the room that could make one statement which cut through all of life's crap and got to the point: "Zennie. I want to talk to you about that ridiculous column you wrote," she's loudly say at some gathering.
Orson Wells and Carl Sanburg (Mary Morris Lawrence)
At the time from 1993 to 1996 I was a columnist for The Montclarion here in Oakland, and like today, I weighed in with my opinions on Oakland, politics, news, and sports (tech came later). Mary read my work and kept me in check, and I loved every second of it.
Mary was hard to miss. You felt her presence in the room. For me, she was the closest thing to royalty in Oakland. | https://oaklandnewsnowblog.com/the-worst-of-supply-chain-disruptions-probably-has-gone-says-lenovo/ | 2022-06-01T21:06:55Z | https://oaklandnewsnowblog.com/the-worst-of-supply-chain-disruptions-probably-has-gone-says-lenovo/ | false | 17 |
MONTREAL, June 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Cannara Biotech Inc. ("Cannara" or the "Company") (TSXV: LOVE) (OTCQB: LOVFF) (FRA: 8CB), a vertically integrated producer of premium-grade cannabis and derivative products with two mega facilities based in Quebec spanning over 1,650,000 sq. ft., announced today that it has closed on a $50M credit facility led by BMO Commercial Banking. The credit facility, effective May 31, 2022, includes a three-year term loan for $45 million with an accordion for up to an additional $10 million and a $5 million line of credit.

The credit facility will also be used to support capital investments for additional post-harvest packaging and processing equipment, which will be used to support the growing production capacity at the Valleyfield Facility and to operationalize the production of in-house solvent-based Cannabis 2.0 derivative products.
"We're extremely pleased to announce this new non-dilutive credit facility with our new financial partner, BMO Commercial Banking, and are proud that they chose to back Cannara as an emerging leader in the Canadian cannabis industry," stated Nicholas Sosiak, Chief Financial Officer of Cannara. "This partnership and the financing it provides strengthens our working capital position while providing the Company with necessary fire power to execute on our immediate and mid-term growth strategy, both from a production capacity and market expansion standpoint."

Across all competitions, Foden reached double figures in both goals and assists.
Should Foden win the award again, he will join Dele Alli in being one of only five players to have won the award in consecutive seasons.
Ryan Giggs did it at United in 1993, Robbie Fowler in 1996 and Wayne Rooney a decade later.
James is expected to be Foden's nearest rival.

And should he win the award, the James family could scoop both the men's and women's award with sister Lauren nominated.
Arsenal's Saka has the strongest case out of the Hale End boys.
The England star netted 12 times across all competitions and helped fire the Gunners into top-four contention.
Unfortunately for Mikel Arteta's men, Arsenal fell short with North London rivals Tottenham snatching fourth. | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/8951625/pfa-young-player-year-premier-league-chelsea-arsenal/ | 2022-06-01T21:09:54Z | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/8951625/pfa-young-player-year-premier-league-chelsea-arsenal/ | false | 4 |
Did you lose money on investments in Pegasystems? If so, please visit Pegasystems Inc. Shareholder Class Action Lawsuit or contact Peter Allocco at (212) 951-2030 or pallocco@bernlieb.com to discuss your rights.
NEW YORK, June 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Bernstein Liebhard LLP, a nationally acclaimed investor rights law firm, reminds investors of the deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in a securities class action lawsuit that has been filed on behalf of investors who purchased or acquired the common stock of Pegasystems Inc. ("Pegasystems" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: PEGA) between May 29, 2020 and May 9, 2022, inclusive (the "Class Period"). The lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia and alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Pegasystems develops customer relationship management ("CRM") software, which has a very competitive market. Pegasystems repeatedly stated that the "market for our offerings is intensely competitive, rapidly changing, and highly fragmented" and that Pegasystems was subject to "significant competition" from other technology vendors. In addition, the Company assured investors that it had internally developed its products. Pegasystems also stated that the Company faced a risk that competitors may "appropriate our intellectual property."
Plaintiff alleges that unbeknownst to investors, however, Pegasystems' products and, thus, the revenue generated from those products were, in large part, the result of theft of trade secrets from one of the Company's competitors. On May 29, 2020, Pegasystems was sued by one of its principal competitors, Appian Corporation ("Appian") in Virginia circuit court for stealing its trade secrets and violating the commonwealth's computer crime law (the "Appian Litigation"). The lawsuit alleged that Pegasystems retained an employee of a government contractor from 2012 to 2014 to secretly access and learn about Appian's software and pass the information on to Pegasystems in order to improve the Company's products and better train its sales force.
Plaintiff alleges that in violation of SEC reporting requirements, for nearly two full years, Pegasystems never publicly disclosed Appian's lawsuit in its SEC filings. Pegasystems did not even disclose the existence of this lawsuit until it filed its 2021 Annual Report on February 16, 2022 – i.e., just one month before a jury trial was scheduled to begin on March 21, 2022.
After the close of the markets on May 9, 2022, Pegasystems revealed that the Virginia circuit court jury awarded Appian more than $2 billion for Pegasystems' trade secret misappropriation. On this news, the price of Pegasystems common stock fell almost 21% to close at $52.25 per share on May 10, 2022. According to press reports, during the seven-week trial, the jury was presented with substantial evidence supporting Appian's claims, including videos, emails, and text messages, and evidence that Alan Trefler ("Trefler"), Pegasystems' Founder and Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), personally attended a meeting with the "spy" and received Appian trade secrets supplied by the "spy." During the trial, CEO Trefler admitted that it was "inappropriate" for Pegasystems to have hired the contractor and that the Pegasystems employees who gained access to Appian trial software "shouldn't have done it." The jury found that Pegasystems engaged in "willful and malicious" misappropriation of Appian's trade secrets.
Plaintiff alleges that Defendants made materially false and misleading statements throughout the Class Period, including by failing to disclose that: (1) Pegasystems had misappropriated trade secrets to better compete against Appian, a principal competitor; (2) Defendants' product development and associated success was, in significant part, not the result of its own research and product testing but rather the result of corporate espionage and trade secret theft; and (3) Defendants had engaged in a scheme to steal Appian trade secrets, which was not only known to, but carried out through, the personal involvement of the Company's CEO.
If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than July 18, 2022. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Your ability to share in any recovery does not require that you serve as lead plaintiff. If you choose to take no action, you may remain an absent class member.
If you purchased PEGA common stock, and/or would like to discuss your legal rights and options please visit Pegasystems Inc. Shareholder Class Action Lawsuit or contact Peter Allocco at (212) 951-2030 or pallocco@bernlieb.com.

Petition To Remove Amber Heard From 'Aquaman 2' Hits All-Time Record Hours Before Jury Announces Defamation Verdict
Jun. 1 2022, Published 4:42 p.m. ET
Just hours before the jury in the $100 million defamation case between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard announced their verdict, an online petition calling for the actress’ removal from Aquaman 2 hit an all-time record, Radar has learned.
The petition garnered nearly 4.45 million signatures Wednesday afternoon – an all-time record on the change.org website and just 500,000 signatures away from its total goal of 4.5 million signatures calling for the removal of Heard from the upcoming Aquaman sequel.
“Amber Heard has been exposed as a domestic abuser by Johnny Depp,” the petition reads. “In his $50 million lawsuit, Johnny Depp describes many incidents of domestic abuse that he suffered at the hands of his (then) wife Amber Heard, including one incident where she punched him twice in the face and another where she shattered his finger with a vodka bottle, and his finger had to be surgically reattached.”
“He will bear the scar from that for the rest of his life…Men are victims of domestic abuse, just like women,” the petition continued while calling upon Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Entertainment for Heard’s removal. “This must be recognized, and action must be taken to prevent a known abuser from being celebrated within the entertainment industry.
“Do the right thing. Remove Amber Heard from Aquaman 2,” the petition concluded.
As RadarOnline.com, Heard’s role in Aquaman 2 and her screen time in the upcoming film was a point of discussion in the defamation trial between her and ex-husband Depp, particularly how she got along onscreen with costar Jason Momoa.
While on the witness stand, the 36-year-old’s talent agent – Jessica Kovacevic – revealed that Heard’s role in the upcoming superhero sequel was substantially diminished. When questioned why that might be, Kovacevic revealed it was due to a "lack of chemistry between her and Jason.”
Heard further claimed that she had to fight to stay in the Aquaman sequel, suggesting that she was substantially cut from the film due to her legal battle with Depp, which was still going on at the time.
On Wednesday, days after it was confirmed Heard’s role in the film was substantially cut and the petition against her reached nearly 4.5 million signatures, the jury in the trial between her and Depp reached their verdict.
Depp, who originally sued his ex-wife for $50 million on claims that she defamed him in a 2018 Washing Post op-ed article, was awarded $15 million.
Heard, who countersued Depp for $100 million on claims of defamation, was awarded $2 million.
“The disappointment I feel today is beyond words. I'm heartbroken that the mountain of evidence still was not enough to stand up to the disproportionate power, influence, and sway of my ex-husband," Heard said in a statement obtained by RadarOnline.com shortly after the verdict was revealed.
"I’m even more disappointed with what this verdict means for other women. It is a setback. It sets back the clock to a time when a woman who spoke up and spoke out could be publicly shamed and humiliated. It sets back the idea that violence against women is to be taken seriously."
"I believe Johnny’s attorneys succeeded in getting the jury to overlook the key issue of Freedom of Speech and ignore evidence that was so conclusive that we won in the UK," she added.
"I’m sad I lost this case. But I am sadder still that I seem to have lost a right I thought I had as an American – to speak freely and openly.” | https://radaronline.com/p/petition-remove-amber-heard-aquaman-2-all-time-record-jury-verdict/ | 2022-06-01T21:13:56Z | https://radaronline.com/p/petition-remove-amber-heard-aquaman-2-all-time-record-jury-verdict/ | false | 1 |
Jarrod Bowen breaks silence over Love Island star girlfriend Dani Dyer engagement rumours after first England call up
WEST HAM star Jarrod Bowen has shut down rumours that he is engaged to celebrity girlfriend Dani Dyer.
The 25-year-old's private life has become a hot topic since going public with the former Love Island contestant earlier this year.
News of an engagement would be approved of by dad Danny, who is a huge fan of Jarrod and the pair are said to be "really close".
But Danny and Dani may have to wait a little longer for Bowen to pop the question.
Ahead of his potential England debut against Hungary on June 4, Bowen said: "No, people thought I was engaged but I don’t know where that came from."
Reports suggest a proposal could take place at some point this summer after he is done with international duty.
The Sun were told by an insider that Jarrod has already asked Hammers super fan Danny if he can marry his daughter.
An insider said: “Jarrod has just one game left of the season and then he’ll be getting some time off.
“The pair have lots planned for the summer, but Dani doesn’t know about one very special thing he has in mind.
“They are so loved up and everyone in the family is a big fan of Jarrod – particularly dad Danny.

Since early May, there have been hundreds of monkeypox cases reported across the world. The first reported case in the U.S. was recorded on May 18, when a man from Massachusetts tested positive.
Monkeypox is typically found in Africa, and rare cases in the U.S. and elsewhere are usually linked to travel there. Monkeypox primarily occurs in central and west Africa, often in proximity to tropical rainforests, where animals contract the virus and then transmit it to humans.
Because the virus is so rare, some online users have questioned how it’s transmitted and if there could be a connection to other viruses, like shingles and COVID-19. Others have asked if the COVID-19 vaccine could have actually caused the monkeypox outbreak.
THE QUESTION
Can the COVID-19 vaccine cause monkeypox?
THE SOURCES
- Tom Yadegar, MD, medical director of the intensive care unit at Providence Cedars Sinai Medical Center.
- Ilhem Messaoudi, Ph.D., professor and chair of the department of Microbiology, Immunology and Molecular Genetics at the University of Kentucky
- World Health Organization
- Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
THE ANSWER
No, the COVID-19 vaccine can’t cause monkeypox. Monkeypox can’t be transmitted through any vaccine. It can only be spread through direct contact with an infected person or animal.
WHAT WE FOUND
Chickenpox and shingles are members of the herpes virus family, and monkeypox and smallpox are orthopoxviruses. The vaccine that protects against COVID-19 does not contain any live viruses and has no connection whatsoever to herpes viruses or orthopoxviruses, Ilhem Messaoudi, Ph.D, told VERIFY.
There are rare cases when the COVID-19 vaccine could trigger a shingles flare-up in people who were previously infected with chickenpox, Tom Yadegar, MD, told VERIFY. Shingles causes a painful, burning rash, along with other symptoms, due to the reactivation of the chickenpox virus.
“It's just a fact that when you get a vaccine, your immune system can get weakened a little bit. And that can cause the shingles to present itself. For a monkeypox, it's not something that's living in any of us. It needs to be transmitted to us,” Yadegar said.
Monkeypox is only transmitted when a person comes into contact with the virus from an animal, human, or materials that are contaminated with the virus, according to the CDC.
The monkeypox virus enters the body through broken skin (even if not visible), the respiratory tract, or the mucous membranes (eyes, nose, or mouth).
Animal-to-human contact can occur if an infected animal bites or scratches a person. Human-to-human transmission primarily occurs through close physical contact with bodily fluids,

GLASGOW, Scotland (AP) — Ukraine’s emotion-filled quest to qualify for the World Cup amid an ongoing war moved a step closer with a 3-1 win over Scotland in a pulsating playoff semifinal on Wednesday.
Veteran captain Andriy Yarmolenko lifted his nation by scoring a deft lobbed goal in the 33rd minute and then helped set up Roman Yaremchuk’s header in the 49th.
Ukraine dominated for much of a deserved win though had to resist a Scotland revival as risk-filled attacks brought a goal in the 79th by Callum McGregor, before Ukraine substitute Artem Dovbyk broke clear to score with the last kick of the game.
Dovbyk led teammates toward the corner of the stadium to share the celebration with 3,000 Ukraine fans in the 51,000 crowd, applauding each other with hands raised high above their heads.
Now Ukraine moves on to face Wales on Sunday with a place at the World Cup at stake.
The winner in Cardiff will go to Qatar in November to play in a group against England, the United States and Iran.
Ukraine put in a slick display despite using six starters who had not played a competitive game of any kind since December.
Most of Ukraine’s squad play for home-based clubs whose league was shut down after Russia's invasion, and the playoff in Glasgow was postponed in March. FIFA and Scotland agreed to give the Ukrainian team a fair chance to prepare for games that have become a focus of national identity and pride.
Scotland lacked the class needed and its wait for World Cup soccer now extends beyond the 24 years since it went to the 1998 tournament.
Ukraine's win could have been sealed earlier but for saves early and often by 39-year-old Scotland goalkeeper Craig Gordon. When the Scots chased a way back into the game, John McGinn placed a 67th-minute header inexplicably wide from close range.
Ukraine is riding a wave of global goodwill as the victim of Russian aggression and its players’ intense motivation to reward the nation with a place on soccer’s biggest stage was clear.
The Ukrainian players all walked onto the field with a blue and yellow national flag draped on their shoulders.
The warm welcome saw Ukraine’s national anthem “Shche ne vmerla Ukrainas” applauded loudly by Scotland fans. Many of those same fans stayed after the game to salute their victorious opponents off the field.
Some of the Ukrainian fans had traveled far and had made plans to stay in Britain for the decisive playoff Sunday.
George Butromeyev told The Associated Press before the game he came from Toronto with friends to support the players who “need to show the people of Ukraine that we are warriors.”
“It’s not only about football,” said Yaroslav Grygorenko, who traveled from Amsterdam. “It’s important to be on the top of the discussions here in Europe, to not let (people) forget what is happening in Ukraine.”
Scotland-born Alex Demianczuk wore a kilt in Ukrainian yellow and blue colors and wanted his parents’ nation to advance. Ukraine playing at the World Cup, he said, would be “something that’s really going to get on (Russian President Vladimir) Putin’s nerves.”
In Kyiv, fans determined to get together to see the match had the war-time night-time curfew to contend with, which kicked in at 11 p.m. local time, before the start of the second half.
The Beer & Meet bar in downtown Kyiv got around the restriction on movement by offering fans the possibility to stay there until 5 a.m., when the curfew ends.
Police swung by the bar in a patrol car a few minutes before kickoff, asking fans who had gathered outside to go down into the drinking hole’s basement rooms, because of an air-raid warning.
Oleksii Safin, 40, who works as a voice actor, stood with his right hand over his heart as he belted out the national anthem. He and other supporters erupted in celebration when Ukraine scored first. But the war raging in the east of the country wasn’t forgotten.
“It looks like we are having lots of fun but, actually, we are not,” Safin said. “We are trying to look normal, as far as we can, but we still remember what is going on out in the east.
“It’s a good fight, just like the fight that we have right now with the Russians,” Safin said. “We can show that we can do it.”

Updated June 1, 2022 at 5:11 PM ET
Actor Johnny Depp has won his defamation case against his ex-wife Amber Heard, as the jury announced its verdict in the widely watched case on Wednesday.
The seven-member jury found that Depp is entitled to $10 million in compensatory damages and punitive damages of $5 million. But, because Virginia state law limits punitive damages to $350,000, the actual amount to be awarded Depp is $10.35 million.
Depp sued Heard, his ex-wife, saying she defamed him by accusing him of domestic abuse.
Heard, 36, also filed a countersuit against Depp, 58, seeking $100 million in damages and saying his legal team falsely accused her of fabricating claims against Depp. The jury awarded Heard $2 million in damages in that countersuit.
Depp sued Heard for three counts of defamation, seeking at least $50 million in compensatory damages and a punitive award of at least $350,000, along with attorney fees and court costs.
Depp, who was not in the courtroom Wednesday, wrote in a statement posted on Instagram that "the jury gave me my life back."
He continued, "From the very beginning, the goal of bringing this case was to reveal the truth, regardless of the outcome."
With both actors accusing the other of ruining their lives, the outcome came to be seen as a referendum on who the jury found more credible and believable: Depp or Heard.
Heard says she is "heartbroken" by the verdict
The jury's verdict was split. The jurors found Heard was defamed by an attorney for Depp who claimed the actress created a "hoax" by making their home disheveled when police arrived.
As she heard the verdict read, Heard remained stone-faced.
In a statement issued afterward, she said, "The disappointment I feel today is beyond words. I'm heartbroken that the mountain of evidence still was not enough to stand up to the disproportionate power, influence, and sway of my ex-husband."
Heard called the verdict a setback for women. "It sets back the clock to a time when a woman who spoke up and spoke out could be publicly shamed and humiliated. It sets back the idea that violence against women is to be taken seriously."
Jurors began deliberating on Friday before taking a break over the holiday weekend. They returned to the courthouse on Tuesday. Reading of the verdict was momentarily delayed after the judge found the jurors didn't finish completing the forms. After reviewing the jury forms, Judge Penney Azcarate ordered the seven members to return to decide a set number for damages.
While Depp wasn't present in the courtroom as the verdict was read, Heard was. Both testified and were central presences during the six-week trial.
The jury clarified which statement prompted Depp's lawsuit
Shortly after Tuesday's lunch break, the jury sent Azcarate a question seeking a clarification: Does Depp's contention that Heard made a defamatory statement apply to Heard's newspaper article in its entirety or only to its headline?
"The statement is the headline, not the entire op-ed," Azcarate wrote in reply after conferring with both sides' attorneys.
The headline in question is from Heard's 2018 op-ed in The Washington Post: "I spoke up against sexual violence — and faced our culture's wrath. That has to change."
When the judge sent the jurors to deliberate, they were given a verdict form that lists a series of questions, including whether Depp's team has proven that Heard's statement is false. The form also asks if the jurors agree that Heard intended to defame Depp — another key element of defamation.
The couple's relationship took on elements of a public spectacle
The trial in Fairfax County, Va., has publicly aired details from the couple's disintegrating marriage, from Depp's episodes of drug use to accusations and counter-accusations of physical abuse.
"I struggle to find the words to describe how painful this is," Heard said when her attorney asked how she felt about the case. "This is horrible for me to sit here for weeks and relive everything."
Depp has said Heard's claims ruined his career and spiked his work in Disney's lucrative Pirates of the Caribbean film franchise. Asked during the trial what he had lost because of the allegations, Depp replied, "nothing less than everything."
Jurors were confronted with a trove of evidence in the trial, including video and audio recordings of arguments and the actors' turbulent life together, along with text messages and emails.
The case also played out on social media, with hashtags trending on TikTok, with public opinion appearing largely in support of Depp.
Depp fans gathered outside the courthouse to hear the outcome on Wednesday. As the verdict was read, loud celebrations were captured on camera.
The case was sparked by a 2018 op-ed
Depp sued Heard over a 2018 op-ed published by The Washington Post in which Heard called for change in how the U.S. treats abuse survivors and urged support for the Violence Against Women Act.
The essay didn't directly refer to Depp by name. But his 2019 court complaint states, "the op-ed plainly was about ... Ms. Heard's purported victimization after she publicly accused her former husband, Johnny Depp, of domestic abuse in 2016, when she appeared in court with an apparently battered face and obtained a temporary restraining order against Mr. Depp."
Heard and Depp married in February 2015, and Heard filed for divorce in May 2016. Less than a week later, she took out a restraining order against Depp, saying he threw an iPhone at her head, striking her, during an argument in Los Angeles. Depp denied that, saying Heard was seeking leverage in their divorce. At the time, police said they found no evidence of a crime and that Heard did not insist on a formal report.
When the two settled their divorce in 2017, the agreement reportedly included a stipulation in which they agreed not to discuss their relationship in public.

Johnny Depp on Wednesday welcomed the verdict from a six-week defamation case over bitterly contested allegations of domestic abuse between him and his ex-wide Amber Heard.
"The jury gave me my life back. I am truly humbled," Depp said in a statement after the jury awarded him $15 million in damages and just $2 million to Heard.
"From the very beginning, the goal of bringing this case was to reveal the truth, regardless of the outcome," he said.
Heard, her eyes downcast throughout, listened impassively as the verdict was read out in Fairfax court, near the US capital — and later declared herself “heartbroken” and disappointed “beyond words” by the outcome.
Depp, who was following the proceedings from the United Kingdom, meanwhile posted on Instagram that the jury “gave me my life back.”
In the op-ed for The Washington Post, Heard had described herself as a “public figure representing domestic abuse” — and although she did not name Depp in the piece, he sued her for implying he was an abuser, seeking $50 million in damages.
The 36-year-old Heard, who had a starring role in “Aquaman,” countersued for $100 million, saying she was defamed by statements made by Depp’s lawyer, Adam Waldman, who told the Daily Mail her abuse claims were a “hoax.”
The jury agreed that Heard was defamed by those statements, and also awarded her damages — but at a significantly lower amount, $2 million.
Reacting to the verdict, Heard called it a “setback” for women.
“The disappointment I feel today is beyond words. I’m heartbroken that the mountain of evidence still was not enough to stand up to the disproportionate power, influence, and sway of my ex-husband,” she said in a statement.
“I’m even more disappointed with what this verdict means for other women. It is a setback... It sets back the idea that violence against women is to be taken seriously,” she said.
A few dozen onlookers and Depp supporters were posted outside for the verdict, one man sporting a “Jack Sparrow” pirate hat and a woman with a placard reading: “No matter what happens today, Johnny, you are a winner!!! And the whole word knows the TRUTH!!!”
ALSO READ:
Dozens of witnesses testified during the trial, including bodyguards, Hollywood executives, agents, entertainment industry experts, doctors, friends and relatives.
Depp and Heard each spent days on the witness stand during the televised trial, which was attended by hundreds of fans of the “Pirates” star and accompanied by a #JusticeForJohnnyDepp campaign on social media.
Video and audio recordings of heated, profanity-laced arguments between the couple were played for the jury, which was also shown photographs of injuries allegedly suffered by Heard during their volatile relationship.
Depp testified that it was Heard who was frequently violent and said it has been “brutal” to listen to “outlandish” accusations of domestic abuse made against him.
Heard, who was married to Depp from 2015 to 2017, obtained a restraining order against him in May 2016, citing domestic violence.
Depp, a three-time Oscar nominee, filed a libel suit in London against the British tabloid The Sun for calling him a “wife-beater.” He lost that case in November 2020.
Both sides have claimed damage to their Hollywood careers.

CHAIRMAN of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Adamu, has reconciled with aggrieved members of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) after apologising to them.
This came days after he was accused of running a one-man show and using the name of the President, Muhammadu Buhari, to blackmail members of the NWC.
The APC North-West National Vice Chairman, Salihu Lukman, and his counterpart in the South-West, Isaac Kekemeke, had earlier accused Adamu of not carrying them along in decision-making.
Salihu, in a letter dated May 27, 2022, and titled ‘Rebuilding APC: Need for new initiatives’, warned that the leadership of the NWC could snowball into oblivion like the previous administrations of Adams Oshiomhole and Mai Mala Buni.
Adamu tendered an apology to the aggrieved NWC members during a meeting that lasted several hours on Wednesday.
According to PUNCH, a member of the NWC, Isaac Kekemeke, confirmed the development.
Kekemeke, the APC national vice chairman South-West, said Adamu and the other NWC members have resolved their differences.
He said, “We are just coming from a meeting of the NWC with the chairman. I think we are beginning to understand ourselves (one another). I don’t want to go farther than that.”
“I think the mutual respect, reciprocity is back, and we are trying to work together as a team,” he added. | https://www.icirnigeria.org/apc-crisis-abdullahi-adamu-reconciles-with-aggrieved-nwc-members/ | 2022-06-01T21:43:23Z | https://www.icirnigeria.org/apc-crisis-abdullahi-adamu-reconciles-with-aggrieved-nwc-members/ | false | 1 |
Julian Lurie is now officially a member of the Eagles organization.
Lurie, the 27-year-old son of Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie, will have the title of Business and Football Operations Strategy, reflecting his involvement in both the football operations and business sides of the organization, according to a team source. The younger Lurie moved into a permanent office space in the NovaCare Complex earlier this offseason.
“Obviously, he grew up in the family that owns the team,” Jeffrey Lurie said of his son at the league meetings in late March. “He’s an avid Philadelphia sports fan. He loves the Eagles, loves the NFL. He really has a great feel for many aspects of the sport. After college, he went into the NFL rotational program to learn much more about the business side and the league side from New York, working for the NFL for all those years. I’ve always, sort of like a lot of children of families that own teams, kind of (brought) him along in terms of I want to expose him to all aspects of both the business side and the operational side, the nuts and bolts, yet also the strategy side. He’s a real sharp guy.
“He’s gonna have so much more going into it than I ever did if he chooses to want to someday own and run the team. I mean, he’s gonna have a gigantic advantage. He won’t make some of the … mistakes that I made. But he loves all aspects of it. And so what I do is expose him at different times to different things. I let him observe coaching searches — those are big decisions to make. I think he gets exposure to the business side (and) football side. And inevitably it’ll be more of a formal aspect to it if he aspires to do that.”
Julian was seen earlier this offseason alongside Howie Roseman and Nick Sirianni on the sidelines at the Senior Bowl and has been involved to some degree in past coaching searches. As the owner’s son, he has been privy over the years to what his father once described as “all the dilemmas and decisions we make.” The Harvard-educated owner’s son also spent two years at the NFL league offices completing the “highly selective, high-potential” junior rotational program in which he worked for a variety of departments. His new, on-the-books role follows the playbook set forth for the children of league owners expected to, themselves, one day take over a team.
Since formally entering the building, the younger Lurie has spent some of his time participating in high-level executive meetings and meeting one-on-one with department heads to better understand the different parts of the business. To some degree, his involvement is mutually beneficial for employees who now have a chance to build a relationship with the team’s likely future owner. In theory, Lurie’s new official presence also ingratiates him into the organization’s day-to-day culture.
The elder Lurie, 70, has spoken publicly about how football has helped him bond with his son, as it did with his dad. At the league meetings, he was asked if he knows whether his son wants to succeed him.
“I don’t know that exactly,” Lurie said. “We haven’t fully talked about that. I can say that he has my passion for the sport and the Eagles. I can tell you that.”
Now that he’s formally in the building, the path to future ownership for Julian seems well-laid. The preparation for that inevitability has now flipped a switch from theoretical to hands-on.
Said Jeffrey Lurie to The Athletic in 2019: “He’s way more prepared than I ever was because he’s been living it since he was a little boy.”

Psychiatrist on Texas shooting: ‘Scars’ of neglect, abuse are red flags for mass shootings
Dr. Charles Sophy details the 'red flags' of mentally ill children in wake of the Uvalde school shooting
Psychiatrist Dr. Charles Sophy joined ‘Cavuto: Coast to Coast’ Wednesday to discuss mental health uncertainties among children in response to the Uvalde, Texas school shooting.
DR. CHARLES SOPHY: I tell people to look at five key areas of their life: sleeping. If you see your child or anybody under the age of 18 who, [if they're not sleeping] well, jump on it. If they're not doing their schoolwork or they're not working, jump on it. They're not eating. They're not dealing with their emotions. You see them start to withdraw. They're not out with their friends. Any change like that, you've got to do something quickly.
…
I think we should look also not only in a criminal background check, we should look in the foster care system, check to see if this child has been into a place where they may have been abused or neglected. And those scars are what, are the start of this kind of a person to do this? We're not looking everywhere we can for a history.

About cVault.finance
According to CryptoCompare, “CORE is a non-inflationary cryptocurrency that is designed to execute profit-generating strategies autonomously with a completely decentralized approach. In existing autonomous strategy-executing platforms a team or single developer is solely responsible for determining how locked funds are used to generate ROI. This is hazardous to the health of the fund as it grows, as it creates flawed incentives, and invites mistakes to be made. CORE does away with this dynamic and instead opts for one with decentralized governance. “
cVault.finance Coin Trading
It is usually not possible to purchase alternative cryptocurrencies such as cVault.finance directly using U.S. dollars. Investors seeking to acquire cVault.finance should first purchase Bitcoin or Ethereum using an exchange that deals in U.S. dollars such as Coinbase, Changelly or Gemini. Investors can then use their newly-acquired Bitcoin or Ethereum to purchase cVault.finance using one of the exchanges listed above.

LAFAYETTE, La. (AP) — Book displays targeting specific groups or topics such as Cajun heritage, Pride Month or Black History Month are prohibited indefinitely at public libraries in Louisiana's Lafayette Parish, a newspaper reported.
Library Director Danny Gillane said Tuesday that the new policy, which also affects Women's History Month and Native American history, will be in place “for the foreseeable future,” according to The Advocate.
Gillane said he made the decision to protect the library and its collection of books and films.
“I’m doing this because everything’s a fight,” he said. “And if I put these books out right now, I feel like I am inviting people to challenge these books.”
Library patrons in late 2021 and this year have challenged two books and a documentary film, seeking to have them removed or their access limited. The first objection was to “This Book is Gay,” which was shelved in the nonfiction teen section.
Before the library board voted on whether to ban the book, Gillane moved all teen nonfiction books to the adult nonfiction section.
In April, the board assigned an NC-17 rating to an unrated documentary film about a man who was an unofficial pimp for gay Hollywood stars so that only those 17 and older are allowed to check out the movie, which contains some nudity.
Gillane said all the moves he’s made have been to keep materials in the library from being put behind a desk or a door.
Some consider his actions, including not allowing Pride Month book displays, self-censorship.
“For a library, that’s ridiculous,” Lynette Majia, an administrator of the Facebook page Lafayette Citizens Against Censorship, said Tuesday. “It goes against everything a library is supposed to stand for.”
“This is viewpoint discrimination,” said Matthew Humphrey, president of Parents, Families, and Friends of Lesbians and Gays Lafayette. “Denying representation to any minority community at the public library will not go unanswered. We are not afraid to sue.”
Pride Month, which celebrates the LGBTQ+ community, began Wednesday.
“After two years without a full-blown celebration, we would like the focus to be on all things Summer Reading, including our displays,” Gillane wrote in an email to library managers. “We want to take the spotlight away from anything considered political and focus on what the library does best: Providing programs and services to everyone in Lafayette Parish. Period.”
Book displays going forward, he said, will focus on topics such as mystery, romance, science fiction and poetry.
Two library board members, including President Robert Judge, were vocal opponents of Drag Queen Story Time, an event in 2018 in which men dressed as women read to children at the public library. Humphrey was one of that event’s organizers. | https://www.michigansthumb.com/entertainment/article/Louisiana-county-libraries-block-displays-for-17213123.php | 2022-06-01T21:48:52Z | https://www.michigansthumb.com/entertainment/article/Louisiana-county-libraries-block-displays-for-17213123.php | false | 26 |
6 governorship, 9 senate aspirants vying for NNPP tickets in Plateau
No fewer than six governorship and nine senatorial aspirants are vying for New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) tickets in Plateau.
Plateau NNPP Chairman, Mr Tokji Mandim who made the known in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Monday in Jos, said the party would field candidates in all the elective positions in the state.
Mandim told NAN that the party’s governorship primaries would hold on Tuesday in Jos while those of Senate, House of Representatives and House of Assembly would also take place within the week.
The chairman said unlike the other political parties whose primaries were characterised by alleged impositions and complaints, the NNPP elections would be seamless.

“NNPP is not like other political parties that keep recycling old people, we will give the youths a chance to lead.
“NNPP is dominated by youths and people that love Nigeria and we will ensure that the wishes of the people prevail,” he stated.
Mandim said that the NNPP had what it takes to dislodge the current occupants of Plateau Government House.
The chairman pointed out that, beside the party’s strength and acceptability, the abysmal performance of the former and current ruling party had made their job easier.
“There is practically nothing to show in what they have done to improve the well being of the people.
“Unlike them, when the NNPP comes to power, we will change the wrong notion that Plateau is a civil servant state.
“We will develop our tourism potential and make Plateau a tourism hub for Nigeria and Africa.
“By doing so we will reduce our dependence on federal allocation and equally generate employment for our teeming youths,” he said. | https://businessday.ng/politics/article/6-governorship-9-senate-aspirants-vying-for-nnpp-tickets-in-plateau/ | 2022-06-01T21:49:57Z | https://businessday.ng/politics/article/6-governorship-9-senate-aspirants-vying-for-nnpp-tickets-in-plateau/ | false | 2 |

Hells Angels shoot Vagos bikers on highway; several injured, police say
LAS VEGAS (KVVU/Gray News) - Members of the Hells Angels motorcycle club reportedly attacked a group of bikers from a rival club over Memorial Day weekend on a highway outside of Las Vegas.
Authorities said the shooting took place on U.S. 95 in Henderson, about 25 minutes from Las Vegas, where seven people were injured, as reported by KVVU.
According to a Henderson Police Department arrest report, Hells Angels members shot two Vagos members on the highway. Six people were transported to the hospital, with two suffering critical injuries. Another person was also self-transported with non-life-threatening injuries.
Henderson police said Richard Devries, 66, Stephen Alo, 46, and Russell Smith, 26, were arrested in the shooting and have Hells Angels motorcycle club connections.
Police said Vagos members were riding the Flags Over Dam ride that day that started in Boulder City. The group was at the Veteran’s Memorial Cemetery when Hells Angels bikers were also seen.
According to the police report, five bikers from the Hells Angels drove through the cemetery and began to cause problems.
Later, the Vagos riders were reportedly traveling on the highway when multiple Hells Angels members rode up to them, according to police. The Hells Angels bikers then began to kick Vagos riders, and a Hells Angels member stood up on a motorcycle and began shooting.
Boulder City police said multiple Hells Angels members were at a cafe earlier that day. They identified the members as Devries, the Hells Angels Las Vegas chapter president, and Alo and Smith as Hells Angels prospects. A fourth Hells Angels member was also listed as being at the cafe.
According to the police report, authorities used cellphone data to track the movement of the select Hells Angel bikers that placed them on the highway at the location and time of the shooting.
Devries, Alo and Smith face multiple charges from the incident that include six counts of attempted murder with a deadly weapon.
Officials did not release any further immediate details on the condition of the people injured.
