MOSCOW (AP) — Voters in the Central Asian nation of Kazakhstan have given overwhelming approval to proposed constitutional changes widely seen as an attempt to repudiate the legacy of former strongman Nursultan Nazarbayev, who led the ex-Soviet republic for three decades.
Kazakhstan’s Central Election Commission said Monday that 77% of voters supported the constitutional amendments in Sunday's referendum, according to preliminary results, while just under 19% voted against them and about 2.6% of ballots were found invalid. The turnout was 68%.
The vote was called by President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, who has steadily strengthened his grip on power after violent demonstrations in January left more than 230 people dead. The protests were sparked by a steep rise in fuel prices, but they also reflected wide public discontent with a stagnant economy and authoritarian government.
Sunday's referendum included specific questions on modifications like prohibiting the death penalty and banning some officials from joining political parties. But it was broadly about support for Tokayev’s overall course.
Tokayev moved methodically to sideline Nazarbayev, who had led Kazakhstan as its communist boss and then president after 1991 Soviet collapse. Nazarbayev stepped down in 2019, but had continued to hold powerful positions as head of the ruling party and the country's national security council until January's unrest.
Tokayev replaced him as security council head during the unrest, in which many demonstrators chanted “old man out,” referring to the 81-year-old former president. Later in January, Tokayev also took helm of the ruling party.
In March, Tokayev vowed political reforms, including reducing the power of the presidency and strengthening parliament. He also called for reducing government involvement in the economy, and trying to bridge the gap between rich and poor.

WASHINGTON – Axon, the company best known for developing the Taser, said Monday it was halting plans to develop a Taser-equipped drone after a majority of its ethics board resigned over the controversial project.
Axon’s founder and CEO Rick Smith said the company’s announcement last week — which drew a rebuke from its artificial intelligence ethics board — was intended to “initiate a conversation on this as a potential solution." Smith said the ensuing discussion “provided us with a deeper appreciation of the complex and important considerations” around the issue.
As a result, “we are pausing work on this project and refocusing to further engage with key constituencies to fully explore the best path forward," he said. The development was first reported by Reuters.
The board had voted 8-4 a few weeks ago to recommend Axon not proceed with a pilot of the Taser drone and had concerns about introducing weaponizing drones in over-policed communities of color.
But after the mass shooting at an Uvalde, Texas elementary school, the company announced it was beginning development of the drone. Smith told The Associated Press last week he made the idea public in part because he was “catastrophically disappointed” in the response by police who didn’t move in to kill the suspect for more than an hour.
The board issued a rare public rebuke of the project, saying it was a dangerous idea that went far beyond the initial proposal the board had reviewed for a Taser-equipped police drone. It said it had “pleaded with the company to pull back” before the announcement and that many of them believed it was “trading on the tragedy of the Uvalde and Buffalo shootings.”
Smith had rejected that idea in an interview with the AP last week and said he was pressing ahead because he believed the Taser drone could be a viable solution to save lives. He contended the idea needed to be shared as part of the public conversation about school safety and effective ways for police to safely confront attackers.
On Monday, nine members of the ethics board, a group of well-respected experts in technology, policing and privacy, announced resignations, saying they had “lost faith in Axon’s ability to be a responsible partner.”
“We wish it had not come to this,” the statement said. “Each of us joined this Board in the belief that we could influence the direction of the company in ways that would help to mitigate the harms that policing technology can sow and better capture any benefits.”
“We tried from the start to get Axon to understand that its customer has to be the community that a policing agency serves, not the policing agency itself,” one of the board’s members, Barry Friedman, a New York University law professor, said in an interview. “It has been a painful struggle to try to change the calculus there.”
Friedman said a major concern was Smith’s decision to move forward with the plan and announce it publicly without adequately hearing the concerns of the board members.
“What’s the emergency? School shootings are a crisis. I agree,” Friedman said. “But Axon, on its own best timeline, isn’t going to come up with anything for a couple of years. Why was it necessary to jump ahead like this?”
“What Rick is suggesting is a necessary public dialogue was really just jumping over the head of the board,” Friedman said.
In his statement, Smith said it was “unfortunate that some members of Axon’s ethics advisory panel have chosen to withdraw from directly engaging on these issues before we heard or had a chance to address their technical questions.”
“We respect their choice and will continue to seek diverse perspectives to challenge our thinking and help guide other technology options,” Smith said. | https://www.clickondetroit.com/news/politics/2022/06/06/axon-halts-plans-for-taser-drone-as-9-on-ethics-board-resign/ | 2022-06-06T13:39:29Z | https://www.clickondetroit.com/news/politics/2022/06/06/axon-halts-plans-for-taser-drone-as-9-on-ethics-board-resign/ | true | 41 |

Biden Mandates More Ethanol In Gasoline, Expect Many Negative Repercussions

Biden Mandates More Ethanol In Gasoline, Expect Many Negative RepercussionsAuthored by Mike Shedlock via MishTalk,
Expect higher food prices but little relief at the pump with Biden's latest questionable move to combat inflation...
Last Friday, Biden's EPA Mandated the Most Ethanol Use Ever.
The EPA, after gathering comments since releasing it proposed blending requirements in December, said Friday it will require refiners to blend 20.77 billion gallons of ethanol, biodiesel and other renewable fuel this year.
Additionally, the oil industry must blend 250 million more gallons of renewable fuel, both this year and next, after a federal court found the Obama administration inappropriately reduced the 2016 blending requirements.
The agency also denied roughly 70 exemptions for small refineries, many of which had been granted under former President Donald Trump.
Corn Growers Cheer
“The Biden EPA is to be commended for restoring sanity to the refinery exemption program,” Monte Shaw, the Iowa Renewable Fuel Association's executive director, said in a statement. “These exemptions have never been justified and were simply being used to illegally undermine the RFS. We are grateful this long nightmare is over.”
Refiners Complain
But Chet Thompson, CEO of the American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers, said the blending requirement for this year is "contrary to the administration’s claims to be doing everything in their power to provide relief to consumers."
"Unachievable mandates will needlessly raise fuel production costs and further threaten the viability of U.S. small refineries, both at the expense of consumers," Thompson said.
EPA Raises Ethanol Mandate for 2022
Also on Friday, the Wall Street Journal reported EPA Trims Ethanol Fuel Mandate for 2020-21 But Raises It for 2022
The Biden administration on Friday retroactively reduced the amount of ethanol that must be blended into gasoline for 2020 and 2021 but raised the level for 2022, saying the changes are aimed at helping boost domestic fuel supplies.
The agency can adjust these requirements retroactively, signaling to refiners how much they will have to spend to buy market credits that help them comply with obligations lingering from past years.
Both ethanol and corn prices have risen sharply, and cutting the 2022 mandate potentially could have lowered refiners’ business costs and led to lower prices at the pump, but likely by only a few cents a gallon, said analysts at research and consulting firm Rapidan Energy Group LLC.
“Millions of acres are being pointlessly sacrificed just to grow corn to fuel gas-guzzling SUVs,” said Brett Hartl, government affairs director at the Center for Biological Diversity. “Meanwhile the EPA looks the other way as our ocean dead zones grow, water pollution worsens, and endangered species suffer.”
Expanded ethanol production under federal mandates raised corn prices by 30% and the prices of other crops by 20%, according to a report published earlier this year in the National Academy of Sciences. The report also said growing more corn for ethanol led to increased amounts of water pollutants from U.S. farms and negated ethanol’s climate benefits.
Biden’s Ethanol Gas Price Trick
Flashback April 12, 2022: Please consider Biden’s Ethanol Gas Price Trick
In Iowa on Tuesday, Mr. Biden announced an environmental waiver to allow sales of 15% ethanol gasoline blends (E15) this summer. The Clean Air Act prohibits this because higher ethanol blends can increase smog in hot weather. They can also erode older car engines, gas pumps, storage tanks and pipelines.
In 2019 Mr. Trump directed the EPA to let E15 be sold year-round to help Midwest farmers. EPA then rewrote the Clean Air Act, claiming the text was “ambiguous.” The D.C. Circuit of Appeals disagreed and ruled that EPA had exceeded its statutory authority.
Mr. Biden says E15 can save drivers on average 10 cents a gallon, but the waiver will have a negligible impact on gas prices nationwide since so few stations sell it.
It’s also unclear what legal authority EPA intends to invoke. Under the law EPA can only issue emergency waivers to address temporary fuel-supply shortages in discrete regions or states.
Meantime, Congress’s ethanol mandate is causing many small refiners to shut down and the U.S. to import more foreign fuel. Last week EPA denied 36 hardship exemptions for small refineries, so even more could close.
Synopsis
30% higher corn prices with other crops rising by 20%, according to the National Academy of Sciences.
Growing more corn for ethanol causes increased amounts of water pollutants from U.S. farms
Expect more fertilizer use when fertilizer costs are soaring
More summer smog
E15 erodes older car engines, gas pumps, storage tanks and pipelines.
Small refiners will suffer and some will go out of business allowing Elizabeth Warren to moan about the concentration of "Big Oil".
To top things off, when Trump tried the same thing, the courts struck it down as illegal.

EMERGING MARKETS-Indonesia's rupiah climbs on palm oil export permits; Asia FX upbeat
* Asian currencies, stocks set to end week stronger * South Korea May inflation hits near 14-year high * Markets in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Thailand closed By Harish Sridharan June 3 (Reuters) - The rupiah extended gains on Friday as Indonesia's decision to issue palm oil export permits after lifting a ban on shipments last week supported sentiment, while other Asian currencies were up against a softer dollar ahead of a crucial U.S. jobs report. Indonesia's rupiah strengthened 0.3% to hit its highest since late-April, while the South Korean won was up 0.8%. Most Asian currencies, which had struggled to notch gains over the week, strengthened as market participants awaited key U.S. jobs data later in the global trading day for confirmation of a slowdown in the employment market, which could convince the Federal Reserve to scale down its hawkish stance on interest rates. A senior Indonesian trade ministry official said on Thursday the government had issued 160 export permits to 18 companies to ship palm oil. The country had previously imposed a three-week export ban to control soaring domestic prices of cooking oil, made from palm oil. The yield on Indonesia's 10-year benchmark note hit its lowest since late-April and bonds across the yield curve strengthened, helped by a soft domestic inflation print. Indonesia's inflation rate accelerated in May due to rising food prices and airfares, but was still within the central bank's target range. Analysts at Nomura expect Bank Indonesia to leave its policy rate unchanged at its upcoming policy meeting this month. They, however, warned that in doing so, "BI could be viewed as already behind the curve, which would threaten IDR stability amid widening current account deficits and a faster Fed hiking cycle, forcing BI to ultimately hike more aggressively." Jakarta stocks jumped nearly 1% to hit their highest since late-April, while shares in Mumbai and Seoul rose 0.8% and 0.4%, respectively. South Korea released data showing its consumer price index rose 5.4% in May from a year ago on a global surge in materials and food costs, beating the 5.1% growth estimated in a Reuters poll and cementing the case for further rate hikes. "The central bank's likely intense focus on inflation should favour urgency rather than patience and suggests hikes will continue to be back-to-back," Brian Tan, an economist at Barclays said in a note. He now expects the Bank of Korea to hike its policy rate by 25 basis points at all four remaining meetings this year. Markets in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Thailand were closed, thinning trading volumes across Asia. HIGHLIGHTS ** Indian shares hit four-week high, set for a third straight weekly gain ** Indonesia's rupiah hits highest since April 27 ** Yield on Indonesia's 1-year and 3-year notes hit lowest since April 13 and April 26, respectively Asia stock indexes and currencies at 0646 GMT COUNTRY FX RIC FX FX YTD INDEX STOCKS STOCKS DAILY % DAILY % YTD % % Japan -0.08 -11.43 1.27 -3.58 China +0.39 -4.58 0.42 -12.21 India -0.01 -4.23 0.77 -3.44 Indonesia +0.31 -1.28 0.99 9.70 Malaysia +0.09 -5.04 -0.38 -1.50 Philippines +0.00 -3.39 0.48 -5.67 S.Korea +0.76 -4.34 0.44 -10.31 Singapore -0.09 -1.63 0.13 3.43 Taiwan -0.40 -5.78 -0.73 -9.15 Thailand +0.00 -2.77 -0.74 -0.60 (Reporting by Harish Sridharan in Bengaluru; Editing by Sherry Jacob-Phillips) | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2624144732807/emerging-markets-indonesia-s-rupiah-climbs-on-palm-oil-export-permits-asia-fx-upbeat | 2022-06-06T13:43:04Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2624144732807/emerging-markets-indonesia-s-rupiah-climbs-on-palm-oil-export-permits-asia-fx-upbeat | true | 2 |

Respondent companies recognize benefits, need for strategy, but have disconnect on investment
PITTSBURGH, June 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- More than 75 percent of respondents to a recent smart manufacturing survey recognized smart technology would increase their company's competitiveness, but only half indicate their company would be willing to invest in smart initiatives. The 2022 Smart Manufacturing Market Survey, administered to more than 250 manufacturing personnel by SME and CESMII, the Smart Manufacturing Institute, revealed a mismatch between the importance of smart automation technology and actually staffing and funding the digital transformation to its adoption.
The survey results were released at Smart Manufacturing Experience 2022, an in-person event featuring over 60 leading manufacturing companies spotlighting the latest transformative technologies. The event will help small to medium manufacturers (SMMs) leverage the power of these advanced technologies to improve their bottom line and advance their operations in real time. It is June 7-9, 2022, at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh, and is sponsored by SME, CESMII, AMT and AMI, which have partnered to meet the technology needs of SMMs.
"Smart manufacturing clearly will increase SMM competitiveness and company leadership understands the need to invest," said John Dyck, chief executive officer of CESMII, the Smart Manufacturing Institute. "The part that's still proving to be a challenge is the ability to connect this value to a compelling ROI, and their commitment to invest their financial resources in smart manufacturing initiatives."
"To us, it's clear that manufacturers are struggling to find objective, authoritative and trusted sources for smart manufacturing resources and education. The level of 'noise' in the marketplace is significant, making it exceedingly challenging for them to know where to turn for reliable insights and guidance."
"No aspect of manufacturing will be as important to the industry's future as digital transformation and the talent and ability to adopt of smart technology in the production environment, said Jeannine Kunz, chief workforce development officer for SME. "Our discussions with large manufacturers reveal that digital transformation is not only a competitive minimum over the next decade, for both big and small companies, but it's also neither financially nor technologically out of reach for the SMM manufacturing base."
Kunz said that Smart Manufacturing Experience is designed to incorporate resources that help companies train their workforce in how to implement a digital transformation strategy and operate more efficiently. It also helps manufacturers make connections with other organizations and industry experts who have embraced smart technology and are able to provide insights on how to integrate digital technologies in a way that makes sense for their business.
According to Dyck, the survey identified three key findings that can help SME, CESMII and their other event partners to accelerate digital transformation for SMMs. These include:
- Smart manufacturing is important to companies, but adoption is moving at a slow pace – He said two-thirds of companies are in some way implementing a smart-manufacturing strategy, yet only 40 percent have dedicated staff members to its implementation. In fact, 77 percent believe smart technology will increase competitiveness for their organizations, but only half said their companies were willing to invest in smart initiatives.
- Respondents view the role of consortia and non-profits as a means of education and training resources to the industry on smart manufacturing topics – Activities such as Smart Manufacturing Experience, and non-profit organizations such as SME, CESMII, AMT an AMI are among the top resources consulted for information on digital transformation to smart technology.
Three-quarters of those surveyed spend an average of more than $2,000 per person annually for structured employee training through consortia and non-profits, which they consider these sources most important benefit. - Opportunities exist for vendors to offer companies more help with the smart manufacturing adoption process – The survey results indicated a need for smart manufacturing technology vendors to provide greater assistance at affordable prices.

Operating across 85 countries, the recent growth of the network has been driven by the wave of new regulations along with industry initiatives, such as T+1 settlement. The Settlement Discipline Regime of the Central Securities Depository Regulation (CSDR) and the Uncleared Margin Rules (UMR) have created an increased need for solutions that facilitate faster and more efficient resolution of settlement breaks and margin disputes.

The Taskize Smart Directory™ and Taskize Bubble™ allow users to manage all work in one place making work flow more efficiently across all their post-trade operational areas, including settlements, corporate actions, income and collateral.
Joining the network is a quick and simple process. Seamless integrations with email, Microsoft Teams and Symphony enable workflow across both traditional and emerging communication channels. The easy-to-use API integrates with existing applications allowing internal workflows to be extended across the entire business network for even greater efficiency. This, along with a flexible sponsored subscription model, has facilitated a rapid increase in members to 500 companies in under 18-months.
Philip Slavin, CEO and co-founder of Taskize, commented on the achievement: "We are excited to have passed this significant milestone after experiencing strong demand from the market. The growth of our network is testament to the value Taskize brings, with those using our platform realising the benefits of inter-company workflow. In the face of mounting regulatory pressures, we expect the network of Taskize users to continue to grow, which will bring cumulative benefits as the industry reaps the rewards of radically reducing emails between global financial operations teams by up to 90%."

Pixie Lott looked stunning as she prepared to tie the knot with Oliver Cheshire after years of delays.
The Mama Do singer, 31, delayed her wedding to fiancé Oliver several times due to the coronavirus pandemic and the restrictions that came with it.
And now, the star finally got to say 'I do' to the love of her life at Ely Cathedral in Cambridgeshire.
Gorgeous wedding decorations and a marquee have been spotted surrounding the iconic building, as reported by Cambridgeshire Live.
Many locals even took time out of their day to catch a glimpse of the pop star heading into her special day.
Model Oliver looked dapper in a black three-piece suit as he arrived surrounded by his groomsmen. He smiled for the cameras and had one hand in his pocket.
She looked out of this world wearing a white wedding dress as she celebrated her big day with her loved ones.
Her sleeves were made out of mesh and were covered in pearls.
She had her wavy blonde hair loosely tied with a couple of strands covering her face.
The couple looked over the moon as they walked hand-in-hand towards the cheering guests.
A mere 24 hours before her big day, Pixie and her pals shared some clips and snaps from her 'last night' before she becomes Mrs. Cheshire.
Pixie looked glorious in a simple white crop top and flared white jeans as she celebrated with her close friends.
Her friend shared a snap of her and Pixie smiling for the camera, along with the caption: "Miss Lott for one last timeeeee."
"Last night as Miss Lott," another pal captioned a sweet snap of Pixie holding up a glass of champagne.
At one point during their relaxed night out, Pixie gave her pals some tips on how 'they walk down the aisle'. "Interesting technique," her friend said.
In one clip, a beaming Pixie leaned back as she showed off her flexibility by lifting up her leg into the air.
"The most beautiful bride to be in all the land!!" the person captioned the post.
Back in March, Pixie opened up about her and Oliver's reason behind postponing their wedding.

She said it was 'tough' to wait but they 'obviously weren't alone'.
Pixie revealed: "So many people had to move their wedding and postpone everything.
"I’m just so happy that things are going ahead. But we knew we had to do it and we weren’t the only ones."
She also added: "We’ve had to move it a few times because of the lockdowns in the pandemic, so we’re happy we’re finally doing it. It’s been a long time coming!"
Oliver popped the question to the singer in 2016, with the pair initially planning to marry in 2018, before Pixie's career commitments saw them push the date back.
Pixie and model Oliver got engaged outside St Paul's Cathedral in London in November of 2016.
They started dating in 2010.

A Russian government website appears to have been hacked over the weekend, causing an Internet search for the site to lead to a "Glory to Ukraine" sign in Ukrainian.
Russia's Ministry of Construction, Housing and Utilities website was targeted after many of the country’s state-owned companies and news organisations suffered hacking attempts since the Russian government’s invasion of Ukraine on February 24.
Russia's state news agency RIA quoted a ministry representative on Sunday as saying that the site was down but users' personal data were protected. The website was working as normal by Monday.
RIA said that other media had reported that hackers were demanding a ransom to prevent the public disclosure of users' data.
Russia’s war on Ukraine is being fought not only with bombs but with bytes as cyber warfare plays an increasingly major role in the invasion.
Before the outbreak of the war, Ukraine saw a rise in cyberattacks on several of its banks and government departments. Many of the attacks came in the form of so-called wiper attacks which destroy data on machines or DDoS attacks, which uses multiple, distributed devices to flood systems.
In response, volunteer hackers began defending Ukraine with the so-called "IT Army," which was set up by Ukrainian digital minister Mykhailo Fedorov. The group is accessed by the messaging app Telegram and lists potential state-owned Russian targets.
Governments around the world have also come to Ukraine’s defence to support its cyber infrastructure. In the wake of this cyber warfare, countries such as the United States and Australia have issued recommendations to companies to strengthen their cyber security.
But Ukraine, like other Baltic states that were formerly occupied by the USSR, has been fighting cyber threats for decades. Their experience shows these countries have the strongest cybersecurity preparedness, with an index higher than Australia's, Canada's, and Europe's average, according to VPN service company Surfshark.
The study showed that Ukraine and Latvia, which both have an index of 75, surpass the European average by 3 per cent.
While Lithuania tops the survey, with an index of 93, almost 28 per cent higher than Europe’s average. Estonia was in second place with an index of over 90.
Meanwhile, Russia’s score is 2.5 per cent lower than Europe’s average and has an index of 71 per cent, according to Sufshark, which also said that Russia had the most data breaches in the first quarter of 2022, with close to 3.6 million internet users affected and a 136 per cent spike in cases after the invasion.
Russia’s latest hacking attacks were in early May, which kept video-hosting site RuTube offline for three days and altered satellite television menus in Moscow on Victory Day, when Russia celebrated the 77th anniversary of the Soviet Union's victory over Nazi Germany. | https://www.euronews.com/next/2022/06/06/russia-s-government-website-hacked-with-pro-ukraine-message-displayed-instead | 2022-06-06T13:49:59Z | https://www.euronews.com/next/2022/06/06/russia-s-government-website-hacked-with-pro-ukraine-message-displayed-instead | false | 1 |

Only 10% of vulnerabilities remediated each month; Only 60% of companies improving security postures; Nearly a quarter facing more than 1,000 vulnerabilities according to global study with The Cyentia Institute
NEW YORK, June 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- New research from SecurityScorecard, the global leader in cybersecurity ratings, and The Cyentia Institute, an independent cybersecurity research firm, revealed only 60% of organizations have improved their security posture despite a 15-fold increase in cyber-attacks over the last three years. The joint research sought to measure the speed of vulnerability remediation from 2019 - 2022 and revealed only modest progress in the area of vulnerability remediation. The research found that 53% of the 1.6 million organizations assessed had at least one exposed vulnerability to the internet, while 22% of organizations amassed more than 1,000 vulnerabilities each, confirming more progress is required to protect organizations' critical assets.
"The speed of vulnerability remediation is a top indicator of an organization's cybersecurity health, and we are in a race to help these organizations shore up defenses and better assess the risks from the growing array of third-party software," said Aleksandr Yampolskiy, co-founder and CEO, SecurityScorecard. "This confirms that in today's rapidly evolving threat landscape, organizations must take swift action to reduce vulnerabilities faster. The time to act is now."
The findings are explained in SecurityScorecard's report, The Fast and Frivolous: Pacing Remediation of Web-Facing Vulnerabilities.
To measure the speed and progress of remediation, SecurityScorecard's research examined how quickly issues were addressed and how long they persisted across assets. The research showed the financial sector to be among the slowest remediation rates (median to fix 50% = 426 days), while utilities ranked among the fastest (median = 270 days). Somewhat surprisingly, despite a 15-fold increase in exploitation activity for vulnerabilities with published exploit code, there was little evidence that organizations in this sector fixed exploited flaws faster. Regardless of how many total vulnerabilities existed across their domain(s), organizations typically fixed about 10% of weaknesses each month.
"Vulnerabilities likely exist with vendors and service providers, which necessitates the need for continuous visibility into the entire ecosystem," said Wade Baker, partner and co-founder at the Cyentia Institute. "With greater visibility, organizations can prioritize risks and remediation based on data. This is key to effectively addressing cyber vulnerabilities."
The research shows the "Information" sector (62.6%) and "Public" sector (61.6%) had the highest prevalence of open vulnerabilities. The "Financial" sector (48.6%) exhibited the lowest proportion of open vulnerabilities; however, there is less than a 10% difference between this and other sectors in terms of industries with the most open vulnerabilities. The analysis revealed that it typically takes organizations 12 months to remediate half of the vulnerabilities in their internet-facing infrastructure. When firms have fewer than 10 open vulnerabilities, it can take about a month to close just half of them, but when the list grows into the hundreds, it takes up to a year to reach the halfway point.
SecurityScorecard collects and analyzes global threat signals that give organizations instant visibility into the security posture of vendors and business partners as well as the capability to do a self-assessment of their own security posture. The technology continuously monitors 10 groups of risk factors to instantly deliver an easy-to-understand A-F rating. Additionally, SecurityScorecard Ratings with Attack Surface Intelligence provides visibility into IP, network, domain or vendor's attack surface risk data, all in one pane of glass. This actionable, deep threat intelligence helps customers identify all of an organization's connected assets, expose previously unknown threats, conduct investigations at scale and prioritize vendor remediation.

Funded by world-class investors including Evolution Equity Partners, Silver Lake Waterman, Sequoia Capital, GV, Riverwood Capital, and others, SecurityScorecard is the global leader in cybersecurity ratings with more than 12 million companies continuously rated. Founded in 2013 by security and risk experts Dr. Aleksandr Yampolskiy and Sam Kassoumeh, SecurityScorecard's patented rating technology is used by over 30,000 organizations for enterprise risk management, third-party risk management, board reporting, due diligence, cyber insurance underwriting, and regulatory oversight. SecurityScorecard is the first cybersecurity ratings company to offer digital forensics and incident response services, providing a 360-degree approach to security prevention and response for its worldwide customer and partner base. SecurityScorecard continues to make the world a safer place by transforming the way companies understand, improve and communicate cybersecurity risk to their boards, employees and vendors. Every organization has the universal right to their trusted and transparent Instant SecurityScorecard rating. For more information, visit securityscorecard.com or connect with us on LinkedIn.

Musk threatens to call off Twitter acquisition
DETROIT (AP) — Elon Musk is threatening to end his $44 billion agreement to buy Twitter, accusing the company of refusing to give him information about its spam bot accounts.
Lawyers for the Tesla and SpaceX CEO made the threat in a letter to Twitter dated Monday that the social platform included in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The letter says Musk has repeatedly asked for the information since May 9, about a month after his offer to buy the company, so he could evaluate how many of the company’s 229 million accounts are fake.
A message was left early Monday seeking comment from Twitter.
The lawyers say in the letter that Twitter has offered only to provide details about the company’s testing methods. But they contend that’s “tantamount to refusing Mr. Musk’s data requests.” Musk wants data so he can do his own verification of what he says are Twitter’s lax methodologies.

Boris Grebenshchikov is one artist who took to social media in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
On April 16, 2022, Grebenshchikov posted a song on the messaging app Telegram – and later on YouTube, Instagram and Facebook – with the unsettling line: “But none of us will get out of here alive.” A few days later, his feed went silent. People started to worry about his safety.
A clampdown on free speech has made life riskier for dissident artists who criticize Vladimir Putin and the war.
It’s forced many of them to flee or consider fleeing the country altogether – no easy call, because Russians traditionally haven’t looked kindly upon artists who fled during times of crisis.
The struggle against Stalin
During the Soviet era, many talented authors, poets and musicians cultivated an underground culture of opposition to resist government repression.
Different movements emerged, each with its own style and purpose.
One of them, the Acmeist movement, included poets Anna Akhmatova, Nikolai Gumilev and Osip Mandelstam. The three spoke out against Joseph Stalin’s brutality at a time when he attempted to silence any artist who didn’t echo his propaganda or support his political program.
In “The Stalin Epigram,” a satirical poem written in 1933, Mandelstam wrote of the climate of terror under Stalin:
These poets – along with many others – became targets of the regime: Gumilev was shot, Akhmatova ostracized until 1940 and Mandelstam shipped to the gulag, where he died.
Meanwhile, Stalin demanded that composers write music that was optimistic and triumphant. But for Russian composer Dmitri Shostakovich, there was little to celebrate. During the Great Purge – when Stalin executed or imprisoned millions of people suspected of opposing the Communist Party – his friends kept disappearing. Family members were shot.
To evade persecution, Shostakovich wrote his Fifth Symphony to end on what appeared to be a positive note, using the same key as Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy.” But importantly, the music contains instructions to be performed at half the expected speed.
The result, Shostakovich later explained, is a sound of rejoicing that feels “forced, created under threat. It’s as if someone were beating you with a stick, saying ‘Your business is rejoicing, your business is rejoicing.’”
The subtle dig didn’t register with Stalin, who interpreted the piece as a paean to his rule.
Soviet rockers long for freedom
Though there was a period of political thawing under Stalin’s successor, Nikita Khrushchev, who eased repression and freed millions of people from the gulag labor camps, artists who spoke out against the regime still faced considerable risk.
Beginning in the mid-1960s, after Leonid Brezhnev assumed the Soviet premiership, rock music flourished underground, offering an expressive outlet for a generation that longed for a definitive end to censorship, oppression and persecution. These musicians were the heroes of Russian youth, and they risked their lives by performing in hidden venues with well-planned escape routes.
While state-sponsored bands such as Zemlyane and Poyushchiye Gitary appeared on television to play syrupy love ballads and sing about the country’s prosperity, dissident singers and rockers like Bulat Okudzhava and Victor Tsoi were performing in dingy basements and cramped apartments.
Songs like Victor Tsoi’s “Changes” spoke to the longing and frustration of the younger generation:
The dilemma of fleeing
As Putin, like Stalin, threatens to persecute those who speak out against him, Russian artists face an age-old dilemma of suffering with their people or leaving for places where they’ll be freer to pursue their work.
Under Stalin, the poet Anna Akhmatova famously stayed put, despite the fact that some of her peers chose to leave. She was heralded for her heroism, and in 1922 she criticized those who fled with a poem titled “I’m not one of those who left their land.”
As an anthropologist studying contemporary Russian culture and society, I’ve found that Russians tend to question the allegiance of artists who left of their own accord, or didn’t come back after being exiled and given the option to return.
Alexander Solzhenitsyn, who won the Nobel Prize in literature, was sent to a labor camp in 1945, where he was imprisoned for eight years. In 1973, he was stripped of his Soviet citizenship and expelled from the country after publishing “The Gulag Archipelago,” which detailed life in Soviet forced labor camps.
Yet there were mixed feelings after Solzhenitsyn returned to Russia in 1994. Many Russians felt that, even though he had been exiled, he should have come back the instant he had been permitted to – in 1990 – and experienced the post-Soviet tumult and hardships alongside his countrymen.
Social media as a tool for resistance
While many Russians have swallowed the messages fed to them through Putin’s propaganda machine, many have not. Citizens who feel scared and disillusioned thrive on the hope they glean from artists who speak out against the war.
In a recent conversation with a friend in Russia, I asked if and how current events are discussed.
“Very carefully,” she replied. “Often by discussing the creations of our beloved artists.”
Yet acts of public defiance are becoming increasingly difficult to pull off.
Alexandra Skochilenko, a 31-year-old performance artist, faces up to 10 years in prison for disseminating “knowingly false information” after she replaced price tags in a grocery store with news reports about the war in Ukraine. Yuri Shevchuk and his band, DDT, stopped performing after Shevchuk was charged with a misdemeanor in May 2022 for insulting Putin during a show. Maria Alyokhina, the leader of the punk band Pussy Riot, recently fled Russia before she could be arrested. In order to escape, she left her cellphone behind to avoid being traced.
However, artists today have access to something their Soviet forebears didn’t: social media.
With the internet as a powerful and valuable tool for professing opposition to Putin, Russian artists are rethinking whether there’s any value in staying – and whether they might be able to more effectively resist Putin from abroad as “netizens.”
Grebenshchikov, the artist whose feed went silent in April, reappeared almost two weeks later, posting videos on Instagram, Facebook and Telegram in which he performs against a backdrop of a blue sky. It isn’t clear where he is, but with concerts scheduled internationally, it likely isn’t Russia; he’s written about his plans to perform in Cyprus, Israel and the Netherlands in the coming months.
Yes, the mass departure of artists portends the loss of in-person artistic culture in Russia. But on the other hand, online posts can, at the very least, sustain Russia’s endangered dissident cultures.

Predictably, U.S. Rep. Scott Perry declines to obey Congress’s Select Committee subpoena for deposition testimony about Jan. 6.
Five reasons why:
1) He’s a true Republican Conservative. Republican Conservatives can ignore precedent and law when problematic.
2) The Select Committee is a political “witch hunt”– a gaggle of Democrats and RINO partisans – that he says “has no standing.” Hence its subpoena is illegitimate.
3) Jan. 6 wasn’t an insurrection but a “peaceful” demonstration – videoed assaults and shouts of “Hang Mike Pence!” (gallows provided) aside – so he clearly can have nothing to say because he’d never do anything apocryphal to keep in office a president un-elected.
4) He’s busy doing the people’s – Republican Conservatives’ – business in Congress, like foisting Taliban-style restrictions that thwart American women’s freedom to make choices.
Now the clincher:
5) He’s invoking an unnoticed covert clause in the printed Constitution he legendarily waives and swore allegiance when enlisting in the U.S. Army and joining the U.S. House: “Any member of any Party that doesn’t win an election has the right, yea obligation, to devise any means necessary to negate said election and install, by any means devisable, said defeated member of said Party into said office.”
Therefore every machination Republican Conservatives have tried to keep Donald Trump in the presidency is constitutionally legal, subpoenas be damned.
No doubt, Mr. Perry will zealously defend these reasons for Democrats who lose elections? Uh-huh.

Northamptonshire's mosques form new group to work together
- Published
The majority of mosques in Northamptonshire have formed an umbrella organisation so they can work more closely together.
Some 11 of the 13 Islamic places of worship are now part of the Northamptonshire Council of Mosques.
The group began working together during the pandemic and decided to form an official organisation.
Abdul Razak, the council's secretary, said: "We realised what united us was more than what divided us."
The group will support and assist the mosques and other Islamic groups in Northamptonshire.
Mr Razak said there were more than 10,000 Muslims in the county and the organisation would "maintain a dialogue with other faith groups, local authorities and local police".
He added the group was "working on" bringing in the remaining two mosques.
The council covers mosques and groups in Northampton, Wellingborough, Kettering, Corby and Daventry.

LandingLens Expands Footprint to Empower More Factories to Implement Better and More Consistent Automated Inspection
DETROIT, June 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Landing AI today announced the launch of LandingEdge, a new deployment application within the company's flagship platform, LandingLens. With LandingEdge, manufacturers will more easily deploy deep learning visual inspection solutions to edge devices on the factory floor to better and more consistently detect product defects.
Announced at Automate 2022, North America's largest automation trade show and conference, LandingEdge extends the capability of LandingLens into even more manufacturing environments. LandingLens enables teams to build deep learning models. With the new edge capabilities, LandingLens customers will more easily integrate with factory infrastructure to communicate with cameras, apply models to images and make predictions to inform real-time decision making on the factory floor. If the factory is connected to the cloud, LandingEdge can update LandingLens with new data to continuously improve deep learning models.
LandingLens has also been enhanced to enable training a deep learning model up to seven times faster than before. By reducing the time it takes to train models, customers achieve fast and iterative AI processes and optimize model accuracy.
"These products mark huge steps in bringing deep learning solutions to the factory floor that are easily integrated to perform automated inspection for a broad range of applications," said David L. Dechow, Vice President of Outreach and Vision Technology at Landing AI. "They put ever more powerful tools in the hands of manufacturers and systems integrators to quickly implement inspection solutions that result in lower costs, increased productivity, and improve customer product satisfaction."
The mission of Landing AI, under the leadership of AI pioneer Andrew Ng, is to bring the benefits of deep learning-based inspection to all industries with its pioneering data-centric approach in which the power of deep learning is unleashed even if companies have limited datasets. First unveiled in 2020, LandingLens provides Landing AI's customers with the end-to-end automated inspection platform that enables manufacturing, quality, and AI teams alike to quickly and easily train, test, confirm, and deploy visual inspection solutions based on high-quality and verified data on the plant floor.
Deep learning is a key machine vision trend for 2022 and beyond in industrial automated inspection applications. But deep learning is not magic and does not automatically make it easy to program an inspection system. As with any vision application, the quality of the input data — the images — is essential to the quality of the output. This is particularly true for data used to train an algorithm. In addition, proper labeling is essential for the implementation of a deep learning inspection system.
To visit Landing AI at Automate, please stop by booth #2209 for a demo.

STEVE INSKEEP, host:
Police officers in several major cities say they want the right to live out of town. From Philadelphia to Milwaukee to New Orleans, police are fighting a requirement that they live inside city limits. They say they want to do as nearly 54 million Americans do, according to the 2000 census, and commute from elsewhere. They're hoping their departments will follow St. Louis, which is the most recent city to drop its residency rule for police. Matt Sepic of member station KWMU reports.
MATT SEPIC reporting:
After a day at the St. Louis Police Department's canine training school, Officer Mike Perkins returns home to his wife and two children. They just bought an old brick gingerbread house in a well-kept city neighborhood and have made major renovations. Perkins and five-year-old Grace(ph) play with Rick(ph), a drug-sniffing German shepherd that also doubles as the family pet.
GRACE: Pretty boy.
Officer MIKE PERKINS (St. Louis Police Department): Sit.
GRACE: Sit.
Off. PERKINS: Speak.
(Dog barks)
SEPIC: Officer Perkins says he enjoys living in this quiet city neighborhood, but he's relieved to know he now has the option to move out of the city if he ever wants to.
Off. PERKINS: It was a rule that they could change with the stroke of a pen and a vote that cost the department nothing and absolutely increased morale 100 percent.
SEPIC: For three decades, local ordinance dictated where St. Louis police could live. That's not a restriction any private workers face, but in St. Louis and many other cities, all city employees, from trash collectors on up to the mayor, have to live within city limits. At a Police Board meeting two weeks ago, Mayor Francis Slay argued unsuccessfully to keep the rule in place for police.
Mayor FRANCIS SLAY (St. Louis, Missouri): I believe fundamentally that people who work for the city of St. Louis, who get a paycheck from the taxpayers of the city, should live in the city.
SEPIC: But a board member appointed by Missouri's new Republican governor cast the deciding vote, marking the end of a 30-year battle between the local police union and city leaders. But the restriction was lifted only for police, not for other city workers, like firefighters or trash collectors. But neighborhood activists across the country argue that police officers living within city limits deter crime. Jamala Rogers is with the Coalition Against Police Crimes and Repression in St. Louis. Standing in the lobby of city hall, she says she's sad to see the demise of the residency rule here.
Ms. JAMALA ROGERS (Coalition Against Police Crimes and Repression): If you live in a neighborhood, you want to make sure that everything is all right, that the public safety is up at its optimum level. If you don't live there, then you really don't have an investment in terms of what happens there.
SEPIC: But police say there's no bigger investment they could make than putting their lives on the line. Police argue they aren't paid for 24/7 duty, and many say 911 is the best number to call in an emergency, not the off-duty officer next door. David Klinger is a former Los Angeles police officer who now teaches criminology at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. He says most officers didn't choose their line of work because of any particular civic allegiance.
Mr. DAVID KLINGER (University of Missouri, St. Louis): People have a variety of motivators, and for many people, it's a commitment to a profession as opposed to a commitment to a community. And they believe in it, they've committed their lives to it, they have made sacrifices to be cops, and they're going to do a good job no matter where they're working and no matter where they're living.
SEPIC: He also says police generally want to live as far as possible from the people they arrest. Klinger made that argument to the Boston City Council several years ago, after several officers' homes in the city were fire-bombed. Jay Broderick is with the Patrolmen's Association in Boston. He says most of the frustration with that city's residency rule has to do with issues like public schools and affordable housing.
Mr. JAY BRODERICK (Boston Patrolmen's Association): To buy a single-family in the neighborhoods that most of the policemen or firemen live in--you can't even really look at one under 300 1/4, 350. And two-families in the neighborhood that I live in sell routinely anywhere around a half million dollars.
SEPIC: About three-fourths of St. Louis police officers are now eligible to move within an hour of their station, if they choose. More will be able to leave after they've put in seven years on the force. But even the most ardent supporters of the old residency rule acknowledge the mass city exodus they feared won't likely come to pass, certainly not for officers like Mike Perkins. He says with a new house and two kids in a nearby parochial school, at this point he has too much invested in his neighborhood to just pack up and leave. For NPR News, I'm Matt Sepic in St. Louis.

At a time when the West Bengal unit of the BJP is going through a series of crisis following internal squabbles and exodus of senior leaders, the party’s national president, J.P. Nadda will be on a two-day visit to the state on Wednesday and Thursday.
Nadda will be landing at Kolkata airport on June 7, 2022 at around 9 p.m. and spend the night in the city. On the next two days, he will have a packed schedule in Kolkata and the districts after which he will be going back to New Delhi on late Thursday evening.
State BJP sources said that many programmes that Nadda will attend, the most crucial will be that of the state committee meeting of the BJP, where he will direct the state functionaries on the party’s course of actions in the backdrop of the West Bengal panchayat polls in 2023 and the Lok Sabha elections in 2024.
Apart from that he is also scheduled to have a close-door meeting with all elected MPs, MLAs and top state committee leaders in the state. State BJP sources said that in that meeting, Nadda is expected to throw some light on how to arrest the exodus of the senior leaders especially elected MPs and MLAs from the party.
BJP’s key state functionaries like Babul Supriyo, Arjun Singh and Joy Prakash Majumdar have switched over to the Trinamool in the recent past.
The meeting is extremely crucial keeping in mind the forthcoming presidential polls, where there are apprehensions of cross-voting by a section of the BJP legislators, who are perceived to be maintaining contact with the Trinamool Congress leadership.
This will be the first state committee meeting of the party since the time the new committee was formed. The state unit of the BJP wanted someone like their national president or the union home minister, Amit Shah to be present.
On June 9, 2022 before leaving for New Delhi, Nadda is also supposed to attend a citizen’s convention in Kolkata, where he will address acclaimed persons from various fields as well as members of the civil society.

The Uttar Pradesh administration, using an iron grip against mafia raj, unveiled a district-by-district list of gangsters and criminals on Monday. According to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s directions, action would be conducted against the identified culprits, and their unlawfully obtained property will be confiscated. Since March 2022, the administration has designated 62 mafias, and 788 persons have been charged under the Gangster Act through May 2022.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) — The details of an investigation into a fatal shooting at a funeral in Lexington Saturday remain largely unknown, including the status of any arrests.
Lexington Police confirmed Saturday that Joseph Richardson was shot and killed outside Unity Worship Center, where family and friends gathered for the funeral of Malcolm Long, who was shot and killed late last month.
"It was a tragedy," said Gerald Young, who knew Richardson. "Another person's family tragedy."
Young, 49, has an intimate history with gun violence. He served more than 20 years in prison for a conviction of complicity to commit murder.
In 2019, Young's daughter, Iesha Edwards, 27, died after she was shot outside a club on Winchester Road in Lexington.
"The people who are doing what they're doing now—that's pain," Young said. "That's hurt, frustration."
The fatal shooting Saturday marked the 22nd homicide of the year in Lexington.
Young said his nephew was also at the funeral Saturday, in his position as a Fayette County Sheriff's deputy. LEX 18 learned deputies were at the funeral when the shooting occurred, as they waited for the funeral procession to begin. It is unclear if the deputies had an opportunity to engage the shooter.
Young called LEX 18 after the shooting, hoping to get answers to his questions about the preparation for the funeral. He expressed his frustrations over the fact that the Lexington Police Department had not stationed officers at a funeral of a shooting victim. His frustrations extended to Mayor Linda Gorton, as well.
"What funeral has she been to?" Young asked. "When has she shown her face at a funeral and said, 'Enough is enough?'"
On Sunday, LEX 18 asked a spokesperson with the Lexington Police Department whether a request was made before the funeral for officers to be present. The spokesperson said they would look into that question. | https://www.lex18.com/news/another-persons-family-tragedy-funeral-marred-by-violence | 2022-06-06T14:20:56Z | https://www.lex18.com/news/another-persons-family-tragedy-funeral-marred-by-violence | false | 1 |

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — The U.S. and South Korean militaries launched eight ballistic missiles into the sea Monday in a show of force matching a North Korean missile display a day earlier that extended a provocative streak in weapons demonstrations.
The allies’ live-fire exercise involved eight Army Tactical Missile System missiles — one American and seven South Korean — that were fired into South Korea’s eastern waters across 10 minutes following notifications for air and maritime safety, according to South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff and U.S. Forces Korea.
The tit-for-tat missile launches were aimed at demonstrating the ability to respond swiftly and accurately to North Korean attacks, the South Korean military said.
The South’s military on Sunday detected North Korea firing eight short-range missiles over 35 minutes from at least four different locations, including from western and eastern coastal areas and two inland areas north of and near the capital, Pyongyang, in what appeared to be a single-day record for the country’s ballistic launches.
It was North Korea’s 18th round of missile tests in 2022 alone — a streak that included the country’s first launches of intercontinental ballistic missiles in nearly five years. South Korean and U.S. officials also say North Korea is preparing to conduct its first nuclear test since September 2017 as leader Kim Jong Un pushes a brinkmanship aimed at cementing the North’s status as a nuclear power and negotiating economic and security concessions from a position of strength.
U.S. and South Korean forces conducted a similar live-fire exercise following North Korea’s previous ballistic launches on May 25, which South Korea’s military said involved an ICBM flown on medium-range trajectory and two short-range weapons. Those tests came as Biden wrapped up his trip to South Korea and Japan, where he reaffirmed the U.S. commitment to defend both allies.
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol during a speech marking the country’s Memorial Day on Monday said his government would pursue “fundamental and practical security capabilities” to counter North Korea’s growing nuclear weapons and missile threat.
“North Korea’s nuclear weapons and missile programs have grown to a point where they are not only a threat to the Korean Peninsula, but to Northeast Asia and world peace,” Yoon said at the National Cemetery in Seoul, saying his government would “sternly respond to any kind of North Korean provocation.”
Yoon, a conservative who took office in May, has vowed to strengthen the South’s defense in conjunction with its alliance with the United States. His goals include enhancing missile strike and interception capabilities and resuming large-scale military exercises with the United States, which were suspended or downsized in recent years to create space for diplomacy with Pyongyang or because of COVID-19.
Yoon’s dovish predecessor, Moon Jae-in, who had staked his five-year term on inter-Korean engagement, refrained from missile counter-drills after North Korea resumed ballistic missile tests in 2019 as its diplomacy with the United States fizzled.
North Korean state media have yet to comment on Sunday’s launches. They came after the U.S. aircraft carrier Ronald Reagan concluded a three-day naval drill with South Korea in the Philippine Sea on Saturday, apparently their first joint drill involving a carrier since November 2017, as the countries move to upgrade their defense exercises in the face of North Korean threats.
North Korea has long condemned the allies’ combined military exercises as invasion rehearsals and often countered with its own missile drills, including short-range launches in 2016 and 2017 that simulated nuclear attacks on South Korean ports and U.S. military facilities in Japan.
Hours after the North Korean launches, Japan and the United States conducted a joint ballistic missile exercise aimed at showing their “rapid response capability” and “strong determination” to counter threats, Japan’s Defense Ministry said.
The United States has vowed to push for additional international sanctions if North Korea conducts a nuclear test, but the prospects for meaningful new punitive measures are dim with the U.N. Security Council’s permanent members divided.
Russia and China vetoed a U.S.-sponsored resolution that would have imposed additional sanctions on North Korea over its latest ballistic tests on May 25, insisting that Washington should instead focus on reviving negotiations with Pyongyang.
Addressing the brewing animosity, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian called for related nations to “maintain calm and exercise restraint, and avoid any actions that may aggravate tensions.”
Nuclear talks between Washington and Pyongyang have stalled since 2019 over disagreements in exchanging the release of crippling U.S.-led sanctions for the North’s disarmament steps.
Despite facing harsh challenges at home, including a decaying economy and a COVID-19 outbreak, Kim has shown no willingness to fully surrender an arsenal he sees as his strongest guarantee of survival.
His government has so far rejected the Biden administration’s offers for open-ended talks and is clearly intent on converting the dormant denuclearization negotiations into a mutual arms-reduction process, experts say. | https://www.militarytimes.com/news/your-military/2022/06/06/us-s-korea-fire-missiles-to-sea-matching-norths-launches/ | 2022-06-06T14:23:23Z | https://www.militarytimes.com/news/your-military/2022/06/06/us-s-korea-fire-missiles-to-sea-matching-norths-launches/ | true | 47 |
NEW YORK, June 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Creatd, Inc. (Nasdaq CM: CRTD) ("Creatd" or the "Company"), today shared an update on its 2022 slate of three production projects in development by Creatd Studios, Creatd's pillar dedicated to transmedia production projects. By partnering the Company's distinguished studio production group with its sister pillars, creators are given the opportunity to develop their content, leveraging the entire Company's broad resources.
Among Creatd Studios' chief focuses this year are OG Collection, Inc.'s two projects centered around No One's Pet: The Autobiography of Sheila Kennedy. The memoir revealed the inner workings of media magnate and Penthouse founder Bob Guccione through the lens of former Penthouse Pet Sheila Kennedy, and in so doing provided a new perspective on a historically-relevant period in pop culture.
The following is excerpted from No One's Pet: The Autobiography of Sheila Kennedy:
Bob was perched at the grand piano waiting for me. Looking at him from across the room, he had a formidable presence, a master of the house persona. When he opened his mouth, a purposeful, gravelly voice came out.
"Welcome," he said. He beckoned to me. He had me sit on a chair facing the piano. Wearing black leather pants, a gold pendant, and a button-down shirt with several buttons undone, he looked younger than his fifty years. I was a little transfixed. At eighteen, I had already met a lot of powerful men in my life. But no one who oozed the power and presence of Bob Guccione.
In December of last year, Creatd first revealed its plans to spearhead the adaptation of No One's Pet into a film, and engaged Hollywood screenwriter Adam Markovitz to begin development of the screenplay. Markovitz, based in Los Angeles, is the former Senior TV Features Editor at Entertainment Weekly Magazine and a co-host of SIRIUS XM's Bullseye. A screenplay is currently in development, in partnership with New York-based The Film Sales Company, and the Company is in active discussions with a number of distribution and streaming channels.
Simultaneous to the book-to-film adaptation, the Company has also announced plans to publish a new edition of the original No One's Pet book, giving Sheila Kennedy the opportunity to frame her captivating story in a way that recognizes the post-#MeToo movement of today. The No One's Pet re-release is currently in development and is expected to hit bookshelves in mid-2023. The new edition will include exclusive images from the OG Collection—a valuable archive comprised of Bob Guccione's life work from the pages of Penthouse, OMNI, and Viva Magazines, representing a significant body of 20th-century cultural history. The updated book sets the stage for Creatd Studios' broader goal of shedding light on some of the other fascinating figures hidden within the Company's wholly-owned OG Collection, Inc., the vast collection of media archives originating from Bob Guccione. Future books in the series will follow a similar first-person narrative format, featuring some of the other Guccione-era Penthouse Pets as well as other notable women that occupied this particular time and place in history.
Erica Wagner, Creatd's Lead Editorial Innovator commented, "The stories of these remarkable women can now be told—and, working with them, this rich intellectual property can be adapted not only into books, but into film and television projects which will shed light on this unique era in our recent past. These vibrant personalities have much to add to the important 21st-century conversations we're having around sexuality, agency and self-determination."
Creatd Studios is bringing Vocal creators from the digital realm to bookshelves, beginning with the upcoming release of a fiction anthology featuring original stories sourced from Vocal creators. The book will be a collection of short fiction, featuring the 25 winning stories from The Vocal+ Fiction Awards, Vocal's fiction-focused Challengel which generated over 13,000 creator submissions. The book is to be published in partnership with Unbound, hailed as the world's first crowdfunded publisher. Unbound, based in London, brings the worlds of crowdfunding and book publishing together, to create a model in which readers invest in authors and great books get published. The anthology is slated for release in mid-2023. The Company is in discussions with several of the creators about the possibility of book-to-screen adaptations.
Commented Unbound co-founder John Mitchinson, "Like Unbound, Creatd is in the business of democratizing creative voices, as well as access to their stories. I believe platforms like Vocal represent the new frontier of literary discovery and we're thrilled to partner with them to help showcase Vocal's unique voices in a whole new way."
Having recently announced its foray into graphic novel development, Creatd Studios has teamed up with creator Larry Blamire for the production and release of his steampunk graphic novel, Steam Wars. In partnership with Creatd Ventures, Steam Wars will be available later this year through select direct-to-consumer channels as well as a number of brick-and-mortar locations in New York City and Los Angeles.
Commented Steam Wars author Larry Blamire, "There is something about this medium that enables a level of world-building that can't be achieved in other formats. It really satisfies the inner geek, and that's a feeling shared by my innovative and forward-thinking partners at Creatd. As steampunk culture continues to grow worldwide in popularity, we feel this is the perfect time to partner up and make this happen. Our expectation is to have a screen-adaptation or game development partnership announced later this year."

The Company has four main business segments, or 'pillars': Creatd Labs, Creatd Partners, Creatd Ventures, and Creatd Studios.

(THE CONVERSATION) A number of high-profile whistleblowers in the technology industry have stepped into the spotlight in the past few years. For the most part, they have been revealing corporate practices that thwart the public interest: Frances Haugen exposed personal data exploitation at Meta, Timnit Gebru and Rebecca Rivers challenged Google on ethics and AI issues, and Janneke Parrish raised concerns about a discriminatory work culture at Apple, among others.
Many of these whistleblowers are women – far more, it appears, than the proportion of women working in the tech industry. This raises the question of whether women are more likely to be whistleblowers in the tech field. The short answer is: “It’s complicated.”
For many, whistleblowing is a last resort to get society to address problems that can’t be resolved within an organization, or at least by the whistleblower. It speaks to the organizational status, power and resources of the whistleblower; the openness, communication and values of the organization in which they work; and to their passion, frustration and commitment to the issue they want to see addressed. Are whistleblowers more focused on the public interest? More virtuous? Less influential in their organizations? Are these possible explanations for why so many women are blowing the whistle on big tech?
To investigate these questions, we, a computer scientist and a sociologist, explored the nature of big tech whistleblowing, the influence of gender, and the implications for technology’s role in society. What we found was both complex and intriguing.
Narrative of virtue
Whistleblowing is a difficult phenomenon to study because its public manifestation is only the tip of the iceberg. Most whistleblowing is confidential or anonymous. On the surface, the notion of female whistleblowers fits with the prevailing narrative that women are somehow more altruistic, focused on the public interest or morally virtuous than men.
Consider an argument made by the New York State Woman Suffrage Association around giving U.S. women the right to vote in the 1920s: “Women are, by nature and training, housekeepers. Let them have a hand in the city’s housekeeping, even if they introduce an occasional house-cleaning.” In other words, giving women the power of the vote would help “clean up” the mess that men had made.
More recently, a similar argument was used in the move to all-women traffic enforcement in some Latin American cities under the assumption that female police officers are more impervious to bribes. Indeed, the United Nations has recently identified women’s global empowerment as key to reducing corruption and inequality in its world development goals.
There is data showing that women, more so than men, are associated with lower levels of corruption in government and business. For example, studies show that the higher the share of female elected officials in governments around the world, the lower the corruption. While this trend in part reflects the tendency of less corrupt governments to more often elect women, additional studies show a direct causal effect of electing female leaders and, in turn, reducing corruption.
Experimental studies and attitudinal surveys also show that women are more ethical in business dealingsthan their male counterparts, and one study using data on actual firm-level dealings confirms that businesses led by women are directly associated with a lower incidence of bribery. Much of this likely comes down to the socialization of men and women into different gender roles in society.
Hints, but no hard data
Although women may be acculturated to behave more ethically, this leaves open the question of whether they really are more likely to be whistleblowers. The full data on who reports wrongdoing is elusive, but scholars try to address the question by asking people about their whistleblowing orientation in surveys and in vignettes. In these studies, the gender effect is inconclusive.
However, women appear more willing than men to report wrongdoing when they can do so confidentially. This may be related to the fact that female whistleblowers may face higher ratesof reprisal than male whistleblowers.
In the technology field, there is an additional factor at play. Women are under-represented both in numbers and in organizational power. The “Big Five” in tech – Google, Meta, Apple, Amazon and Microsoft – are still largely white and male.
Women currently represent about 25% of their technology workforce and about 30% of their executive leadership. Women are prevalent enough now to avoid being tokens but often don’t have the insider status and resources to effect change. They also lack the power that sometimes corrupts, referred to as the corruption opportunity gap.
In the public interest
Marginalized people often lack a sense of belonging and inclusion in organizations. The silver lining to this exclusion is that those people may feel less obligated to toe the line when they see wrongdoing. Given all of this, it is likely that some combination of gender socialization and female outsider status in big tech creates a situation where women appear to be the prevalent whistleblowers.
It may be that whistleblowing in tech is the result of a perfect storm between the field’s gender and public interest problems. Clear and conclusive data does not exist, and without concrete evidence the jury is out. But the prevalence of female whistleblowers in big tech is emblematic of both of these deficiencies, and the efforts of these whistleblowers are often aimed at boosting diversity and reducing the harm big tech causes society.
More so than any other corporate sector, tech pervades people’s lives. Big tech creates the tools people use every day, defines the information the public consumes, collects data on its users’ thoughts and behavior, and plays a major role in determining whether privacy, safety, security and welfare are supported or undermined.
And yet, the complexity, proprietary intellectual property protections and ubiquity of digital technologies make it hard for the public to gauge the personal risks and societal impact of technology. Today’s corporate cultural firewalls make it difficult to understand the choices that go into developing the products and services that so dominate people’s lives.
Of all areas within society in need of transparency and a greater focus on the public interest, we believe the most urgent priority is big tech. This makes the courage and the commitment of today’s whistleblowers all the more important.

Doctor details what men and women should know about alopecia
KENILWORTH, N.J., June 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- After this year's Academy Awards, hair loss was a trending topic. Yet much of the conversation around Jada Pinkett Smith's alopecia highlighted common misconceptions around hair loss. We lose about 50 to 100 strands of hair from our head every day, according to the American Academy of Dermatology. But some people will experience even more significant hair loss in their lifetimes, which can be a source of anxiety and in some cases, an indicator of more serious medical issues.
In a new editorial on MerckManuals.com, Wendy S. Levinbook, MD, Hartford Dermatology Associates, breaks down six of the most common misconceptions about hair loss – along with the facts people should know.
Misconception #1 - Alopecia is a Specific Medical Condition
Alopecia is simply the medical term for any type of hair loss. It is not a specific medical condition. There are many specific types of alopecia. The most common is androgenetic alopecia, which is related to aging. By age 80, more than 70% of men and 50% of women will have this form of alopecia.
Misconception #2 - Hair Loss Only Affects Older Men
It's not just men who experience hair loss. Women also experience hair loss, although the pattern of hair loss tends to be different in men and women. In women, hair is usually first lost on the top of the head. Typically, the hair thins rather than becoming completely lost, and the hairline stays intact.
Misconception #3 - Hair Loss is Passed Down from Just Your Mother or Father
There's a persistent myth that hair loss in men is passed down from the mother's side of the family while hair loss in women is passed down the father's side. While genetics play a part in male- and female-pattern hair loss, these traits can be passed down from both parents.
Misconception #4 - Nothing Can Prevent Hair Loss
There are a wide range of products, vitamins and therapies that claim to prevent or even undo hair loss – often with a hefty price tag attached. The reality is, it's difficult to regain hair that's already been lost in most cases. Slowing or stopping hair loss depends on the cause of the hair loss, but there are some products that can be effective if used consistently and effectively.
Misconception #5 - Washing Your Hair Too Much Can Cause Hair Loss
Some people are concerned that washing their hair too often can cause hair loss. This is not true. Additionally, hats do not cause hair loss and in fact can be an effective way to protect the scalp from the sun.
Misconception #6 - Hair Loss is Only a Cosmetic Issue
The psychological impact of hair loss should not be overlooked or minimized. Our society places a high value on appearance, and hair is closely tied to beauty standards across many cultures. Individuals struggling with hair loss should pay close attention to mental health issues that may come with it. Often, seeking support from loved ones or others going through similar challenges can help.
At the same time, hair loss is not always a purely cosmetic challenge. It can be indicative of more serious issues, including lupus, hormonal disorders, fungal infections, or nutritional deficiencies. It can also be caused by physical stressors, psychological stress, or an injury.

Partnership will enable Infor to integrate Everstream's supply chain risk assessment & monitoring data with Infor Nexus business network platform
NEW YORK, June 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Infor, the industry cloud company, today announced that it has entered into a technology partnership with Everstream Analytics, the global supply chain insights and risk analytics company, to help organizations better anticipate and navigate supply chain risks and disruptions. Through the partnership, Infor will integrate Everstream's end-to-end supply chain risk assessment and monitoring data with its Infor Nexus multienterprise business network platform.
The Infor Nexus Control Center, an end-to-end supply chain control tower, provides organizations with visibility to orders, shipments and inventory throughout the supply chain — delivering intelligent, actionable insights through its connectivity to carriers, logistics service providers (LSPs), suppliers and manufacturers.
Everstream's solution will complement these capabilities by providing data on external events — such as weather, labor strikes, port congestion, cybersecurity, ESG (environmental, social, and governance), and partner risks (physical and financial) — that could impact a company's supply chain flows and its ability to deliver.
By combining Everstream's risk monitoring intelligence with the other insights in Infor's digital supply chain platform, Infor will provide customers with a single supply chain control tower that provides end-to-end visibility and predictive alerts to numerous supply chain events and their impacts, helping them intelligently sense and respond to external events and ultimately deliver shipments on time and in full.
According to Heidi Benko, Infor vice president of product management, the partnership will help customers boost supply chain agility, resiliency and on-time performance.
"The Infor Nexus network has always connected companies to their supply chain partners and suppliers to provide visibility, collaboration and execution of supply chain processes from source to pay," Benko said. "Partnering with Everstream gives us the predictive insights needed to identify external risks or disruptions that could impact customer supply chains and the ability to deliver."
Rick Meyer, head of global sales at Everstream Analytics, said, "Through this partnership, Everstream will provide the risk event intelligence that the Infor Nexus platform can then tie directly to transactions across the supply chain. By applying AI and predictive analytics to our datasets, we can deliver the predictive insights and risk analytics that businesses need for smarter, more autonomous and sustainable supply chains."
For example, when Everstream Analytics identifies a risk event, such as port congestion or a major weather event, it will notify the Infor Nexus platform, containing the time of the event, the occurrence duration, severity and the location. Infor Nexus Control Center will cross-reference the incident with network data to understand the impact on a customer's transactions and alert users – providing decision support tools and resolution workflow so they can swiftly take action.
Infor Nexus is a single-instance, multienterprise business network platform that powers many of the world's most complex supply chains to drive efficiency and agility by optimizing the flow of goods, information and capital from source to delivery and pay. For more information, visit https://www.infor.com/solutions/scm/visibility.
Everstream Analytics sets the global standard for supply chain resilience and agility. Applying artificial intelligence and predictive analytics to its vast proprietary dataset, Everstream's proven solution integrates with procurement, logistics and business continuity platforms to provide end-to-end and multi-tier visibility into supply chain risk. With Everstream, business leaders gain vital context based on comprehensive information, sharper analysis and accurate predictions required to turn the supply chain into a business asset.

Spiralizing zucchini into “noodles” often translates into a wan and watery dish, a poor imitation of the pasta it attempts to emulate. Generally, it’s better to let an ingredient shine on its own merits. And for raw zucchini, we didn’t need to look far to find a better answer.
The Italians have done it for ages, reducing whole zucchini to paper-thin ribbons, then dressing them simply — some lemon juice, a bit of oil, maybe some honey, Parmesan, fresh herbs and nuts. The effect is a fresh and vibrant salad made in minutes.
In this recipe from our book “Milk Street Tuesday Nights,” which limits recipes to 45 minutes or less, we use a vegetable peeler to slice zucchini into thin ribbons. The zucchini really shines, balanced with the clean, sharp flavors of a lemony dressing along with Parmesan and hazelnuts. The hazelnuts — or almonds, if that’s what you have on hand — give the salad crunch and a slightly buttery note.
Don’t worry if the ribbons vary in width; this adds to the visual appeal of the dish. And don’t dress the salad until you are ready to serve. The zucchini and herbs are delicate and quickly wilt.
Shaved Zucchini and Herb Salad with Parmesan
Start to finish: 20 minutes
Servings: 4
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus 3 tablespoons juice (1 lemon)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
¼ teaspoon honey
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1 pound zucchini (2 medium)
1 ounce Parmesan cheese, finely grated (about ½ cup), plus shaved to serve
½ cup lightly packed mint, torn
½ cup lightly packed fresh basil, torn
¼ cup hazelnuts, toasted, skinned and roughly chopped
In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon zest and juice, oil, honey, and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Set aside. Use a Y-style peeler or mandoline to shave the zucchini from top to bottom into ribbons; rotating as you go. Stop shaving when you reach the seedy core. Discard the cores.
To the dressing, add the shaved zucchini, grated cheese, mint and basil, then toss until evenly coated. Transfer to a serving plate and sprinkle with shaved Parmesan and hazelnuts.

NEW YORK (AP) — On Valentine's Day 1972, a musical opened off-Broadway needing a lot of love. It was already $20,000 in debt and the reviews were mixed to poor. A decision had to be made: Keep going or give it the kiss off?
The choice to continue was a risky but fateful one, not only for the investors but also for the actors who would subsequently use it as a career incubator, including John Travolta, Richard Gere, Patrick Swayze, Treat Williams, Marilu Henner, Peter Gallagher, Alan Paul, Judy Kaye and Barry Bostwick.
That show was “Grease,” a tale of teen angst and true love set in the mid-1950s. It would go on to transfer to Broadway for a then-record eight-year run, spawning several touring companies and a celebrated film. Not many know that it was almost stillborn.
"People think that ‘Grease’ was born a blockbuster. ‘Grease’ was born anything but blockbuster. If there’s any metaphor that works for this show, it’s ‘The Little Engine That Could,’ says Tom Moore, the show's director.
The story of the show's often rocky beginnings into a pop culture juggernaut is told in the new oral history book “Grease: Tell Me More, Tell Me More,” culled from stories submitted by some 100 cast and crew and edited by Moore, “Grease” veteran Adrienne Barbeau and producer Ken Waissman.
The book includes the behind-the-scenes hookups, the accidents — broken ankles were a big risk — life on the road, the time Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor stopped by to enchant the cast, their encounter with Liberace, performing the show with flashlights during the 1977 New York blackout and the day the show closed on Broadway in 1980, complete with dozens of great photos.
The book comes out Tuesday, the 50th anniversary of “Grease” opening on Broadway. It is structured chronologically as the show is born and cast and then as it sparks multiple tours, with chapters at the end organized by theme. All participants were welcome to add their stories, from understudies and orchestra members to actors and designers.
“Some had really very amusing, very risqué backstage stories that I didn’t even know about it,” says Waissman, who helped audition 2,000 people for the first company's 16 roles.
It was Waissman who fell in love with an early iteration of the show when it was an amateur production playing weekends at a converted trolley barn in Chicago. “I saw my entire yearbook come to life,” he says.
The other soon-to-be stars who had roles in “Grease” include Tony Award-winning Broadway directors Walter Bobbie and Jerry Zaks; authors Laurie Graff and John Lansing; and TV stars Ilene Kristen, Ilene Graff, and Lisa Raggio.
The musical centers around the T-Birds, a “greaser” gang, and their girls, the Pink Ladies. The main romance is between the leader of the T-Birds, Danny Zuko, who still pines for his summer love, the “good girl” Sandy Dumbrowski. It's a show about forming friendships, raging hormones, petty jealousies and hot-rod racing.
All successful musicals leave members with fond memories, but “Grease” was different in that it was an ensemble musical that employed young actors all of roughly the same age — ideally, close to high school. It was often an actor’s first big break and that reflected the themes of the show.
“It’s about about the first of everything — first loves, first fitting into high school, first finding your pack, first finding your group, first finding your identity. And to a certain extent, we were doing all of that personally at the same time we were putting together the show," says Moore. "We were still to a great extent growing up together.”
Members of the various companies — touring productions often became farm teams for Broadway replacements — have kept in touch via social media over the years. When the pandemic hit, the idea was floated to combine all the stories into a book, a way to connect during a national isolation.
“It was as intense as it had been in rehearsal because everybody wanted to get it right,” says Moore. “These memories are so important to them.”
The book — published by Chicago Review Press — makes it clear how tight money was at the start, with costume designer Carrie Robbins using her own shower curtain to make a beauty school smock and cutting up her pink bath mat and toilet seat cover to make a poodle skirt.
It was Waissman and co-producer Maxine Fox who made the bold step to keep the show open in 1972 despite debt and poor reviews. Waissman explained it this way: “Look, we can’t afford the $20,000 that we owe right now. We might as well not afford a lot more. So we’re not closing.”
Moore credits Waissman and Fox with believing in the project and saving a show that would go on to mean so much to so many people. “You don’t see that a lot with producers now,” he says.

Singapore, Jun 6 (PTI) Singapore's Indian-origin professor Subra Suresh will be stepping down as the president of the prestigious Nanyang Technological University at the end of this year to return to his family in the US, it was announced on Monday.
A search committee will be launched to identify his successor, the NTU said in a statement.

“The lingering effects of a global pandemic have precluded my immediate and close-knit family, like so many others separated across continents, from coming together over a protracted time, even for significant family life events,” Suresh, 66, wrote in an email message to the campus community.
He said that the "much-anticipated" birth of his first grandchild later this year and a “strong desire to be in closer geographical proximity as a family” have convinced him and his wife to return to the US "sooner than we had originally envisioned", the TODAY newspaper quoted him as saying.

Suresh is the fourth president of the NTU since its founding in 1991. He joined the university in January 2018, after serving as the president of Carnegie Mellon University in the US from 2013 to 2017.
In a university-wide message, Goh Swee Chen, chair of the NTU board of trustees, thanked Prof Suresh for his contributions and achievements.
“Under his leadership, Subra and his team introduced curriculum innovations and digital technologies, offering a top-quality education to our students. The NTU has made progress over the last three decades and Subra's vision for higher learning will continue this momentum,” she said.

Police: 12-year-old boy commits armed robbery in broad daylight
HARTFORD, Mich. (WWMT) - Police said they took a 12-year-old boy into custody last week after the kid pulled out a weapon and robbed a gas station.
They said the suspect didn’t give a reason for his actions.
Armed robberies are not too common in small towns like Hartford. But when the suspect is this young, even law enforcement veterans said they are surprised.
“It flabbergasts me that a young person, broad daylight, no mask, would walk right in the business with other customers, announce an armed robbery,” said Lt. Michael Prince of the Hartford Police Department.
Police said a 12-year-old boy took a gun out of a locked cabinet in his home, went to a Marathon gas station and pointed the gun at a clerk, demanding money.
The clerk asked if the boy was serious, and police said the 12-year-old then pointed the gun at the ceiling and pulled the trigger.
“It’s very concerning. The school shootings that we’re seeing everyday, the violence we’re seeing in churches. I think the father had good intentions, but I think he learned a valuable lesson that he needs to secure the firearm even better than he did because the young man was able to pry the door open,” Prince said.
Police said the clerk then gave a few thousand dollars to the boy, who put the money in a backpack and ran off.
But law enforcement from several agencies responded within 90 seconds and caught the boy in a nearby parking lot.
“He pretty much did not lie about anything. He will not give us his exact reason. He said it wasn’t for the money. But he would not tell us,” Prince said. “It was recorded on high-definition, three different cameras at the business. I just don’t know what was going on in this young guy’s mind.”
All the money and the loaded gun were recovered. The boy was taken to the juvenile detention center in Allegan County.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Chimney™, a leader in financial guidance for the digital age, today announced the addition of three credit unions to its platform, bringing the total number of credit unions to over 20 and growing fast.
Among the latest credit unions to select Chimney are:
- Affinity Federal Credit Union, based in New Jersey with over $3.8 billion in assets and 200,000+ members
- Wellby, based in Texas with $2.5 billion in assets and 130,000+ members
- Quorum Federal Credit Union, based in New York with $1 billion in assets and 70,000+ members

With the company’s award-winning digital tools, institutions can offer customers personalized, interactive content at scale while gathering gainful member data, creating an increase in qualified conversions across digital channels.
One credit union to recently partner with Chimney is New Jersey-based Affinity Federal Credit Union. Founded in 1935, Affinity is a full-service financial institution, member owned and community focused, with a mission to nurture member financial wellbeing. With more than 20 branches across the tri-state area, Affinity is the largest credit union headquartered in the state of New Jersey, proudly ranking in the top 2% of all credit unions in terms of asset size.

Anna Horford has defended her brother Al before on Twitter.
And now, she’s unhappy about what she’s seeing in the 2022 NBA Finals as Al goes for his first ring in his very first appearance in a championship series.
In Game 2, we saw Draymond Green get tangled up with Jaylen Brown and not get a technical foul for it, which would have been his second T of the contest and an ejection.
Anna had some thoughts about that on Twitter — along with so many other NBA fans — saying, “If Draymond can’t outplay an opponent, he simply resorts to playing dirty.”
Here’s the tweet and some others:
If Draymond can’t outplay an opponent, he simply resorts to playing dirty 🤮

Al has yet to take a shot & it’s almost halftime… would probably be good to try to get him involved on offense.
— Anna Horford (@AnnaHorford) June 6, 2022
Jayson doesn’t have to do it alone… We play best when we play team ball. Need to get other guys involved.
— Anna Horford (@AnnaHorford) June 6, 2022
How many times can Draymond hack Al & not get called for it? 😂

You guys remember game 1? That’s my happy place right now.

SAN DIEGO, June 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: NBIX) was honored by the CARES Foundation for its ongoing research and development of novel therapies for patients with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). The CARES Foundation, Inc. is the only U.S.-based nonprofit organization solely dedicated to improving the lives of the CAH patient community and seeks to advance quality health care. Neurocrine Biosciences' Chief Research Officer, Dimitri Grigoriadis, Ph.D., accepted the Corporate Partner Award at the CARES 22nd Anniversary Gala held at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, CA on June 4.
"This award recognizes the members of our outstanding research and development, and clinical development teams, who are leading our effort to advance a potential new treatment option for classic CAH," said Kevin Gorman, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer. "Thanks to the vision of our co-founder Dr. Wylie Vale and the leadership of our Chief Research Officer Dr. Dimitri Grigoriadis, our investigational compound crinecerfont is currently in Phase 3 registrational studies in adults, adolescents, and children. Crinecerfont has the potential to help the thousands of people living with classic CAH, and we're looking forward to reporting top-line data from these studies in 2023."
Classic CAH is a genetic disorder that impacts the lives of up to 30,000 people in the United States and 50,000 people in Europe. Wylie Vale, Ph.D., isolated corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), which plays an integral part in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis that is disrupted in classic CAH. He began his career making major contributions to the discovery of hypothalamic peptides in the lab of Roger Guillemin, Ph.D., who ultimately received the 1977 Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine. Dimitri Grigoriadis, Ph.D., has spent most of his career studying CRF, including years working with Dr. Vale. His research was the basis for the development of crinecerfont, an oral, non-steroidal, selective corticotropin-releasing factor type 1 (CRF1) receptor antagonist for the treatment of classic CAH due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD).
For more than 60 years, glucocorticoid treatment (typically at supraphysiologic doses) has been the standard treatment to reduce elevated adrenal androgens in patients with classic CAH. There are currently no non-steroidal U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved treatments for classic CAH.
Neurocrine Biosciences is currently conducting two Phase 3 global registrational studies of crinecerfont in adults (18 years of age and older) and children and adolescents (2 to 17 years of age) with classic CAH, called the CAHtalyst™ Adult and CAHtalyst™ Pediatric studies, respectively. As part of the CAHtalyst clinical trial program, participants who complete these trials will be able to continue to receive crinecerfont as part of an open-label extension.
About Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH)
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) refers to a group of genetic conditions that result in an enzyme deficiency that alters the production of adrenal hormones. Approximately 95% of CAH cases are caused by a mutation that leads to deficiency of the enzyme 21-hydroxylase. In classic CAH, severe deficiency of this enzyme leads to an inability of the adrenal glands to produce cortisol and, in approximately 75% of cases, aldosterone. If left untreated, classic CAH can result in salt wasting, dehydration, and even death. Even with glucocorticoid treatment, high levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) from the pituitary gland results in excess androgen production leading to virilization and menstrual irregularities in females. Both males and females with classic CAH can experience problems with growth and development in childhood including early puberty, short stature or height below genetic potential, and fertility problems in adulthood.
There are currently no non-steroidal treatments approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for classic CAH. Glucocorticoids, the current standard of care, are used to correct the endogenous cortisol deficiency and to try to reduce the high ACTH levels and androgen excess. However, the dose of steroid required to try to control androgen excess is generally well above the normal physiological level of cortisol, and the chronic duration of high steroid dose administration can result in serious and common complications of steroid excess, including metabolic abnormalities, increased cardiovascular risk, bone loss, fractures, growth impairment, and increased infection risk.

About Crinecerfont
Crinecerfont is an investigational, oral, nonsteroidal, selective corticotropin-releasing factor type 1 (CRF1) receptor antagonist under evaluation for the treatment of classic CAH due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD). Antagonism of CRF1 receptors in the pituitary has been shown to decrease ACTH levels, which in turn could decrease the production of adrenal androgens and potentially the symptoms associated with classic CAH. Research also suggests that lowering androgen levels may enable lower, more physiologic dosing of glucocorticoids and thus potentially reduce the complications associated with long-term exposure to greater than normal glucocorticoid doses in patients with classic CAH.

The organizer of the Summer Game Fest has spoken about the long-awaited game by Team Cherry and the effects of the pandemic.
With the Summer Game Fest just around the corner, many are speculating on the possibility of finally seeing Hollow Knight: Silksong again. The long-awaited title Team Cherry It was presented at the beginning of 2019 with a trailer that dazzled fans of the first installment, but since then we have hardly had any news.
Will we see it these days? Geoff Keighley, organizer and presenter of the Summer Game Fest, might have the answer. For now, he has given a short interview to GameSpot in which he answers several questions, and one of them is what’s going on with silksong and if he has more information.
Although Keighley does not get too wet and continues to maintain the mystery, he does ensure that the pandemic has greatly affected those responsible, and it could be the main reason why we have not seen it before. “I don’t know exactly what it is, but the pandemic has hit them really hard,” says Keighley.
The pandemic hit them hardGeoff Keighley“They are a small team and they are taking their time. We have talked to them, but not about the state of the game or where they are right now,” he concludes. We don’t know if he wants keep any possible surprises or it really is, but it is a doubt that we will surely clear up during the next few days.
As we have mentioned, there are only a few days left for the Summer Game Fest Celebration. In 3DJuegos you will be able to keep up to date with the news and schedules of all the conferences that will be held during these days. Will we see Hollow Knight: Silksong in any of them?

US Labor Market Likely to See Slowed Job Growth Ahead
NEW YORK, June 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Conference Board Employment Trends Index™ (ETI) declined slightly in May to 119.77, down from 120.60 in April 2022 (an upward revision). "The Employment Trends Index fell slightly in May, signaling slowing, but positive job growth in the months ahead. The labor market may have less room for more growth with overall employment down only 0.5 percent compared to the pre-pandemic level," said Agron Nicaj, Associate Economist at The Conference Board. "However, leisure and hospitality and in-person services industries have yet to fully recover job losses incurred since the pandemic. Employment growth is still expected in these industries as consumers continue to shift more spending away from goods and towards services."
Nicaj added: "The labor market remains strong amid high inflation and the Federal Reserve is likely to continue its focus on stabilizing prices as a result. A strong response by the Fed risks higher unemployment rates by the end of 2022."
May's decline in the Employment Trends Index was driven by negative contributions from four of eight components. From the largest negative contributor to the smallest, these were: the Percentage of Respondents Who Say They Find "Jobs Hard to Get", Ratio of Involuntarily Part-time to All Part-time Workers, Real Manufacturing and Trade Sales, and Industrial Production.
The Employment Trends Index is a leading composite index for employment. When the index increases, employment is likely to increase as well, and vice versa. Turning points in the index indicate that a turning point in the number of jobs is about to occur in the coming months. The Employment Trends Index aggregates eight leading indicators of employment, each of which has proven accurate in its own area. Aggregating individual indicators into a composite index filters out "noise" to show underlying trends more clearly.
The eight leading indicators of employment aggregated into the Employment Trends Index include:
- Percentage of Respondents Who Say They Find "Jobs Hard to Get" (The Conference Board Consumer Confidence Survey®)
- Initial Claims for Unemployment Insurance (U.S. Department of Labor)
- Percentage of Firms With Positions Not Able to Fill Right Now (© National Federation of Independent Business Research Foundation)
- Number of Employees Hired by the Temporary-Help Industry (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics)
- Ratio of Involuntarily Part-time to All Part-time Workers (BLS)
- Job Openings (BLS)*
- Industrial Production (Federal Reserve Board)*
- Real Manufacturing and Trade Sales (U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis)**
*Statistical imputation for the recent month
**Statistical imputation for two most recent months
The Conference Board publishes the Employment Trends Index monthly, at 10 a.m. ET, on the Monday that follows each Friday release of the Bureau of Labor Statistics Employment Situation report.

AUSTIN (Nexstar) — Some Texans are calling for leaders to take action after mass shootings — rather than providing just thoughts and prayers.
In a letter to Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick and Speaker of the House Dade Phelan, Gov. Greg Abbott requested they begin special legislative committees to develop recommendations on “school safety, mental health, social media, police training, firearm safety, and more.”
The recommendations could lead to legislation to be considered in the 2023 session.
This is less action than some Texans have called for. Some lawmakers, mostly Democrats, have asked Abbott to call them back for an entire special legislative session. This would allow new legislation to pass more immediately in response to the mass shooting. Without a special session, any legislative action would have to wait until next year.
“Let us debate. Let us pass legislation,” said State Rep. Ann Johnson (D-Houston). “I don’t want the creation of another sham committee. Let us discuss common sense gun reform,” she added.
Part of Abbott’s letter reads, “I request that these committees review what steps previous legislatures have enacted, what resources the State has made available to local school districts, and make recommendations to the Legislature and the Executive Branch so that meaningful action can be made…”
The Governor previously pointed to a similar approach taken in 2018, after a 17-year-old killed 10 people at a high school in Santa Fe, Texas. Abbott called for a series of roundtables and laid out extensive school safety plan recommendations. Lawmakers also passed bills in response in the 2019 session, including the creation of a Texas Child Mental Health consortium and requiring school districts to set up “threat assessment teams” of people trained to spot red flags.
Abbott, in his letter, said the new special committees he’s requesting represent an effort to “reassess the twin issues of school safety and mass violence.”
Republican State Rep. Jeff Leach thanked Gov. Abbott for calling for the special committees. He had previously backed calls for a special session. State Sen. Kel Seliger is the lone Republican still supporting efforts to bring lawmakers back to Austin.
“We can punt it until January, but I don’t think that does much to reassure families… who expect us to do something now,” Seliger said in a telephone interview. The Amarillo Republican is not seeking reelection.
Lt. Gov. Patrick named 11 senators to serve on the special legislative committee in response to the Uvalde shootings. The State Senator who represents Uvalde is not among them.
Speaking to reporters Thursday, State Sen. Roland Gutierrez called being left off a “slap in the face.” The Senate committee also omitted Democrat Cesar Blanco, the State Senator representing El Paso. That city was the site of a mass shooting at a Walmart in 2019.
Gutierrez, a Democrat, gained attention in the days after the shootings when he interrupted one of Governor Abbott’s news conferences to ask him to call a special session.
Speaker Phelan emphasized that the investigation into what happened in Uvalde is still ongoing, and expressed frustration that details about the response have been changing. On Friday, he announced the creation of a House committee to investigate the shooting.
Texas’ “Dead Suspect Loophole” could be used to block the release of law enforcement records related to last month’s school shooting in Uvalde that left 19 children and two adults dead, transparency advocates and lawmakers fear.
For years, KXAN investigators have explored Texas law enforcement’s widespread use of an open records measure known as the “Dead Suspect Loophole.” Lawmakers have repeatedly sought to close the loophole, which allows police to withhold information in closed criminal cases that don’t go through the court process — even when a suspect dies in police custody.
After the Uvalde school shooting and the gunman’s death, some transparency advocates — even Texas House Speaker Dade Phelan — worry police may try to use the loophole to keep important details about what really happened from the public and even victims’ families.
Outside the entrance to the Texas State Capitol, there is a growing memorial of flowers, candles and stuffed animals. The faces of fourth-graders murdered in Uvalde line the steps.
“It’s so sad,” said Kelley Shannon, looking at the photos. “I hope that these families and the community of Uvalde get the transparency that they need and deserve.”
Shannon is the executive director of the Freedom of Information Foundation of Texas. She says families deserve answers and accountability, especially given the shifting explanations coming from law enforcement.
“I think what everyone’s realizing is we definitely need this transparency in Uvalde,” she said.
She worries the “Dead Suspect Loophole” could be used to block the release of records that could shed light on how law enforcement responded that day. She has seen law enforcement agencies deny records citing the loophole, even to family members.
“We’ve had all kinds of families come to the Capitol and explain how they could not get simple, basic police records,” said Shannon. “Because their loved ones died in police custody.”
The loophole was used to keep records related to Javier Ambler’s 2019 death in the custody of Williamson County Sheriff’s deputies secret for 15 months. The family of 21-year-old Herman Titus, who died at the Travis County Jail in 2017, struggled for years to get any information about his death.
In the last three legislative sessions, State Rep. Joe Moody (D-El Paso) filed bills to close the loophole. Those efforts failed.
“The intent of the bill isn’t to cause any issues in an active case,” he said during a 2018 hearing. “What we’re dealing with are closed cases that fall into an exception that they shouldn’t have.”
“These records belong to the public,” he said during a 2019 hearing with then Chair Dade Phelan. “Government transparency is government transparency. Even when it’s not pretty.”
Moody said the original intent of the exception to the Public Information Act, put in place in 1997, was to protect people under investigation. Police unions across the state have fought changes to the law.
“This situation crystallizes why we need to close this loophole, right?” he said. “This shouldn’t even be an option.”
The revived idea to close the loophole is getting support from Phelan, the Republican Speaker of the House. On Twitter, he called it “common sense.”
“More than anything, the families of the #Uvalde victims need honest answers and transparency. Period,” Phelan tweeted Wednesday. “It would be absolutely unconscionable to use the ‘dead suspect loophole’ to thwart the release of information that is so badly needed and deserved right now.”
“I think it’s time we pass legislation to end the dead suspect loophole for good in 2023,” he added.
Moody responded that it is time to “end the abuse of this loophole once and for all.”
State Rep. Eddie Morales Jr. (D-Eagle Pass) also tweeted interest in ending the loophole.
“I’ll have my Capitol staff look into this and work with Lege Counsel to find ways to address the loophole,” he tweeted, “or end it thru the filing of a bill.”
“There are a lot of questions that have to be answered in that community,” Moody told KXAN. “Those families deserve answers.”
Texas districts called on to fast-track school safety audits
School districts are now being asked to fast-track their school safety audit reports.
These audits are due every three years. Campuses originally had until September 2023 to get them submitted to their districts.
This stems from Gov. Greg Abbott announcing he wants the Texas School Safety Center (TxSSC) to immediately review these policies after the Uvalde school shooting.
By the start of the next school year, Abbott said the TxSSC must conduct comprehensive school safety reviews to confirm all Texas public schools are following state law on active threat plans.
The TxSSC must confirm control procedures with all public schools, such as single-access points, locked classroom doors, visitor check-in procedures and exterior door locks. In addition to making sure all schools have procedures consistent with state standards, TxSSC must also do random inspections.
“Your team should begin conducting in-person, unannounced, random intruder detection audits on school districts,” Abbott wrote. “Also, the TxSSC should immediately begin working with my office and the Legislature on recommendations to improve current security systems and determine the funding necessary to continue the work of hardening our schools against outside threats.”
Something new the center is being asked to do is work with the Texas Education Agency (TEA) to do random visits to campuses to check how secure the building is, at different access points.
TxSSC said it feels it can accomplish what Abbott is asking by his deadline.
Abbott on Thursday also sent a letter to the TEA asking that it provide strategies to districts, to make schools safer.
Texas veterinary board uploads missing records after investigative report
The Texas Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners has uploaded dozens of disciplinary records for veterinarians that were previously not showing up on the agency’s public lookup tool.
Earlier this year, KXAN investigators discovered dozens of public records were missing from the tool that is intended to help Texans search for their animal doctors’ disciplinary history.
At the time, an attorney for the agency explained the agency was undergoing a ‘data-migration,’ moving over records to a new software system. He noted that many records were being uploaded manually, so people would need to get disciplinary records by filing a formal public information request with the agency.
By March, the attorney said all the records had been uploaded to the public tool, but KXAN found more than 60 records were still missing. The agency denied multiple requests for on-camera interviews about the issue. Just days before the story was published in May, two top officials at the agency resigned.
The newly appointed Interim Executive Director, Mike Tacker, said he would look into the status of these records. This week he reported that the issue had been “rectified.”
KXAN checked on Thursday and found as many as 55 disciplinary documents had been added for licensees on the public search tool. We have asked the agency about a few outstanding documents.
In 2017, lawmakers called on the agency to revamp its data management processes and other operations, after a review by the Texas Sunset Advisory Commission the year before. The commission is scheduled to perform a “limited scope review” of the agency’s data management operations this November.
New Texas law helps families looking for missing loved ones
Alice Almendarez’s heart is heavy.
She’s prepared herself for days to face families who have dealt with similar loss.
“It’s hard to attend these events, but I do it because I know what it feels like to be in their shoes,” Almendarez explained. “My dad being missing, and you know, I felt… like he didn’t matter… he was just like vanished off the face of the earth.”
Almendarez now advocates for families with missing and unidentified loved ones.
At a recent Missing in Harris County Day in Houston, she helped families attending navigate their search for missing loved ones.
“They asked me…’What do I think the most important step is? What would I recommend for everyone,’ and I said it was NamUs, make sure your loved one is on NamUs,” Almendarez said.
In Texas now, John and Joseph’s Law requires law enforcement agencies, justices of the peace and medical examiners in the state to use NamUs, a national database to solve missing and unidentified persons cases.
The law went into effect last September.
NamUs which is short for the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System was created to help investigators and families solve cases by entering forensic details into the database.
The law is named after Almendarez’s father, John, and Joseph Fritts, both from Houston, who were missing. Their families explained to KXAN investigators that NamUs helped them find closure.
“They are part of the club that they never wanted to be a part of. And they are the only ones who know what the other families like them are, are going through,” explained State Rep. Lacey Hull, R-Houston.
She worked closely with the Almendarez and Fritts families to get the law passed last session.
Hull joined both families at the Missing in Harris County Day and talked about the impact of the new law.
“We have seen an uptick in law enforcement agencies and medical examiners, and people are reporting more in Texas,” Hull said. “So, it is working.”
In 2020, before the law passed, 106 NamUs missing persons cases were created across the state. Last September, after the law went into effect, the cases entered more than doubled to 221 in Texas. So far this year, 191 Texas cases have been created.
For unidentified bodies in 2020, 58 cases were created in the database across the state. After the law passed, 33 cases were created. So far in 2022, 60 cases have been entered into NamUs.
Unclaimed persons cases didn’t see much of a change. Last year, 21 cases were created. So far this year, 24 cases have been entered into the database.
“This is the step that was missing. This is what’s going to help so many families and it’s also going to help you know our local authorities like solve these cases faster,” Almendarez said.
Hull has heard from those involved about some gaps in the reporting to NamUs of people who have passed but are not identified. She is looking to file additional legislation next session which starts in January.
“Part of the gap in the data for these unidentified bodies that we’re looking at is for people who have passed away from natural causes, and so they would not be investigated by law enforcement. And so, there’s a gap of them—the unidentified remains being reported,” said Hull.
NamUs is federally funded so there’s no cost to use the database.
It used to be headquartered in Fort Worth, but now it’s managed by a research institute in North Carolina.
Texas is now among 12 states to pass laws mandating the use of NamUs.
Almendarez is now pushing for it to be nationwide.
“It’s never going to work if we don’t have every law enforcement agency and medical examiner entering these cases into NamUs. It’s one uniform database, one central database that we can all use,” Almendarez explained.
She has started contacting lawmakers and is hoping to get a national movement going this year.
“I don’t ever want anyone to have to go through that longer than they have to,” Almendarez said. “The people that are missing – the faces of the missing – the moms of the missing, the dads, they’re the drive behind that and the force behind me because I don’t want them to continue to live this nightmare.” | https://cw39.com/news/texas/state-of-texas-legislative-action-likely-months-away-in-response-to-uvalde-school-shooting/ | 2022-06-06T14:57:42Z | https://cw39.com/news/texas/state-of-texas-legislative-action-likely-months-away-in-response-to-uvalde-school-shooting/ | true | 13 |

Scream in joy
On Tuesday, May 17, 2022, TUKO.co.ke reported the activist not hiding his joy after Raila Odinga named Martha Karua as his running mate ahead of the 2022 general election.
Mwangi, who took a stab at politics when he vied for the Starehe parliamentary seat in 2017, was at a barbershop when Karua was picked, and he screamed in joy at the announcement.
Boniface Mwangi, a fierce critic of the government, is a close ally of the Narc Kenya party leader Karua and they have been involved in programs aimed at putting the government in check.
On the other hand, Juliani has been involved in making music that takes a hit at the government and is a close friend of Boniface.
Cease and desist
On Tuesday, November 03, 2020, threatened to sue the Jubilee Party for using his song Utawala to promote a Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) campaign video on social media without his permission.
According to Juliani's lawyer Katee David of James T. Makori Advocate, the party shared the BBI promotional video on its Twitter account on Saturday, October 31, with part of his song.
Juliani's legal team through a letter addressed to Jubilee Party Secretary-General Raphael Tuju said the party did not seek permission to use the song as the soundtrack of the video.
“Our client, being the author of the song, enjoys exclusive rights under Copyright law hence his creative work cannot be used by anyone else for whatever purpose without authorisation,” the letter read in part.
Juliani's lawyer insisted the Jubilee Party's BBI promotional video went against the building bridges spirit since the party and the material used denied the rapper his right to earn an honest living through his works.

Abu Dhabi-based mobility startup Fenix has added ride-hail and courier services to its portfolio of mobility products.
The company launched “Fenix Taxi” in Manama, Bahrain, on Monday and says it’s planning to add two additional markets this summer. At the same time, Fenix launched its “Fenix Genie” service, which allows users to “buy anything and get anything delivered” within minutes in select neighborhoods of Abu Dhabi, Istanbul, Mersin and Doha, according to the startup. Couriers deliver goods using a combination of Fenix’s shared e-scooters and internal e-mopeds.
Since Fenix’s founding as a shared e-scooter operator in 2020, the company has regularly added business lines, from 10-minute grocery delivery to micromobility subscriptions to, now, ride-hail. It’s a similar playbook to the likes of Bolt in Europe and Yandex in Russia and Israel, one that “leverages what we think is the superpower of micromobility, which is a great way to get customers onto the platform and organically adopt us and then offer complimentary services,” Jaideep Dhanoa, co-founder and CEO of Fenix, told TechCrunch.
“Having worked in the industry for about eight years now, I know that one product can’t solve all mobility needs because our needs are diverse as a populace and even on a per trip basis,” continued Dhanoa.
All of Fenix’s products and services are available in the same app, the goal being to create one “mobility super app” to serve the greater Middle East. Aside from Bahrain, Qatar, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates, Fenix also has a presence in Saudi Arabia, specifically with its shared and subscription scooter service.
“Our mission is to unleash urban potential and propel communities forward,” said Dhanoa. “We start with mobility, which is an enabler for opportunity. Mobility, it gets people to work, to school, to the mall, it gets you home. When people move and do more, it drives economic activity and quality of living, so we’re really focused on how we can reduce that friction to move.”
Dhanoa says piling on the products and services has been the strategy from the get-go. The CEO’s co-founder, IQ Sayed, was formerly the head of engineering at Careem, a Middle Eastern ride-hailing service that Uber acquired. That experience taught Sayed to think about the technological architecture of Fenix’s product as something that could continually be added to, rather than re-engineered every time the company decided to add a new business line.
“We incorporated those lessons into how we’ve built up the tech at Fenix from day one, and it’s really paying dividends as we’re now able to spin out new products basically every quarter with a very lean, high-velocity tech team,” said Dhanoa.
Publicly, Fenix has only raised $5 million, most, if not all, of which probably went toward the company’s purchase of Turkish e-scooter operator Palm. Dhanoa says Fenix has raised more money that it hasn’t yet announced to help it scale and expand. Otherwise, the company is mainly relying on profits from its core micromobility business to fund these new business lines.
“We are profitable in all five of our markets on a unit economic basis,” said Dhanoa. “I think market selection is also important. The Gulf specifically has a really large profit pool for ops-intensive businesses just due to labor arbitrage. We have developed market pricing with emerging market costs and low competitive intensity.”
In the near term, Fenix is focused on bringing its full portfolio of mobility and delivery products to the footprint where it currently operates shared e-scooters so it can leverage existing brand stickiness. Dhanoa says Fenix is also working to expand its e-scooter presence in current markets.
Looking further out, Fenix wants its footprint to cover the greater Middle Eastern region, from Morocco to Pakistan.
“This is a region with similar characteristics to Southeast Asia — large population but diverse and highly fragmented — that requires tremendous management attention to unlock, creating the opportunity for a regional champion,” said Dhanoa. | https://techcrunch.com/2022/06/06/with-ride-hail-and-delivery-launch-fenix-wants-to-be-the-bolt-of-the-middle-east/ | 2022-06-06T15:06:39Z | https://techcrunch.com/2022/06/06/with-ride-hail-and-delivery-launch-fenix-wants-to-be-the-bolt-of-the-middle-east/ | false | 3 |

Nike battles StockX over NFTs, counterfeit shoes
Online resale marketplace StockX is fighting back in court over a counterfeiting claim from Nike (NYSE:NKE).
StockX defended its anti-counterfeiting measures and noted that Nike (NKE) has praised them in the past, according to a draft filing spotted by CNBC.
"In the past, Nike has sought to collaborate with StockX and has communicated confidence in the StockX authentication process," read the filing.
Nike and StockX ended up in court over the issue if NFTs of Nike shoes infringed on trademarks and could confuse customers. Nike (NKE) has big plans for NFTs in its upcoming metaverse, while StockX has argued it uses NFTs to digitally track ownership of physical products to increase efficiency and decrease cost for consumers. The issue goes to future revenue as Nike (NKE) is looking to make and sell virtual branded sneakers and apparel in the metaverse.
As part of the Nike lawsuit, the company stated that it was able to purchase four pairs of counterfeit shoes from StockX that were verified as authentic, one of which matched a StockX NFT.
In its defense, StockX said the allegations lack merit and demonstrate a lack of understanding of the modern marketplace. StockX claims its resale site is unique because all of the products on its marketplace are physically inspected and authenticated. The company also has a refund policy for the "rare case" where a counterfeit product might find its way into a consumer’s hands. | https://seekingalpha.com/news/3845953-nike-battles-stockx-over-nfts-counterfeit-shoes | 2022-06-06T15:08:17Z | https://seekingalpha.com/news/3845953-nike-battles-stockx-over-nfts-counterfeit-shoes | true | 1 |

After its foray into ports, Adani Enterprises is all set to enter the Information Technology (IT) sector in West Bengal. The group will set up a data centre in the New Town area in the northern outskirts of Kolkata. The decision was approved by the Bengal cabinet on Monday.
Announcing the project, West Bengal Industry Minister Partha Chatterjee said Adani group will set up Bengal Tech Park, a new subsidiary company to set up a hyper-scale data centre on an area of 51.75 acres inside the Bengal Silicon Valley hub in New Town.
"The state cabinet today gave the nod to the proposal by Adani Enterprises to set up a 100 per cent hyper-scale data centre at Bengal Silicon Valley in New Town, Rajarhat. The project will come up on 51.75 acres of land, which has been given on a 99-year lease," Chatterjee told PTI.
ADANI'S INVESTMENT IN BENGAL
The decision comes just a month after industrialist Gautam Adani announced investment commitments worth Rs 10,000 crore in the state during his address at the Bengal Global Business Summit held in April.
“Over the next decade, we expect our total investment in Bengal to exceed Rs 10,000 crore. Thereafter, as we continue to expand here, we will bring into Bengal our world-class expertise across the green energy value chain. What I am committing to bring to Bengal is the best of the Adani Group our expertise in infrastructure, our speed of execution, our experience, and our focus on building bigger and better. What I am committing to bring is the technology and scale that will help recalibrate the infrastructure in Bengal," Mr Adani had announced after attending the business meet for the first time in Bengal.
HALDIA DOCK COMPLEX PROJECT
Earlier this year, India’s largest private port operator, Adani group, took control of a berth at the Haldia Dock Complex (HDC), making an official entry into the maritime sector in the state. Adanis are being considered as a frontrunner for Mamata Banerjee government's ambitious Tajpur greenfield sea port project.
Located in East Midnapore, the proposed project is estimated to draw investments worth Rs 15,000 crore. According to sources, another key investment opportunity for the Adani group is the Deocha-Pachami coal mining project in Birbhum, Asia’s largest coal block, which the state government is keen to develop. | https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/adani-group-data-centre-bengal-silicon-valley-new-town-kolkata-1959113-2022-06-06 | 2022-06-06T15:13:14Z | https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/adani-group-data-centre-bengal-silicon-valley-new-town-kolkata-1959113-2022-06-06 | true | 2 |
Honda might soon be bringing an affordable electric scooter to Indian shores. The U-Go was launched in China last year and soon after that, the Japanese manufacturer filed a patent for the scooter in India as well. The patent was registered in August of 2021 and has now been journaled. The company had announced their intentions for making environment-friendly vehicles in India and bringing in EVs as well. The U-Go could be part of the plans to bring in affordable electric two-wheelers and build an ecosystem for this greener technology.
The Honda U-Go is a slim and light e-scooter with a minimalistic design philosophy. There is a modern-looking headlamp cluster on the apron with an LED DRL surrounding it. The slim top section houses the turn indicators. U-Go has a rather simple looking profile and looks rather utilitarian. However, it rides on smart alloy wheels and has telescopic forks at the front and twin springs at the back.
Internationally, the U-Go comes in two variants – one powered by a 1.6bhp electric motor and another by a lower-powered 1bhp motor. This is clearly a slow-speed scooter that comes with a hub-mounted motor. Both variants run on a removable 1.44kWh battery that promises a claimed range of 65km which is a bit less compared to most flagship EVs in India right now. By adding a second battery pack, the range can be doubled to 130km. The removable battery and maximum top speed of 53km would make it a hassle-free choice for short commutes.
While many new e-scooter manufacturers have sprung up in the past few years, a handful of established players are also gearing up to make the transition from ICE to EVs. Honda has been one of the manufacturers that are yet to take any solid step in the matter. While it is still unclear if U-Go will be the first electric two-wheeler from Honda in India or if it will be launched at all, the move shows that the company is working on EVs behind the scenes. | https://www.financialexpress.com/auto/bike-news/honda-u-go-destined-for-india-design-patent-journaled/2550654/ | 2022-06-06T15:13:17Z | https://www.financialexpress.com/auto/bike-news/honda-u-go-destined-for-india-design-patent-journaled/2550654/ | true | 1 |

Okey Maduforo, Awka
The arrested Native Doctor implicated in the killing of the Anambra lawmaker, Okey Okoye has been making confessional statements naming over 16 members of his killer gang.
The Native Doctor also named major hide outs and camps where kidnap victims are being kept and at the moment more reinforcements of officers and men of the Joint Task Force (JTF) on security JTF have arrived Anambra and has commenced operations.
This is coming as the Police Command rescued four kidnapped victims from the den of bandits which led to the killing of a kingpin popularly known as ‘Sampolo’ during exchange of gun fire.
According to the Anambra Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Tochukwu Ikenga: “Based on intelligence gathered which indicated the location of a kidnapped victim at Neni in Anaocha Local Government Area, the police operatives working with the vigilante stormed the location on Sunday 5th, June rescued the victims and arrested one Emeka who was suspected of complicity in the crime.
Upon interrogation he confessed to the crime detectives to the hide out of the gang in Oba town in Idemili South Local Government Area where detectives engaged the gangsters in a shoot out.” | https://www.newtelegraphng.com/arrested-native-doctor-sings-as-anambra-police-rescue-4-kidnapped-victims/ | 2022-06-06T15:13:25Z | https://www.newtelegraphng.com/arrested-native-doctor-sings-as-anambra-police-rescue-4-kidnapped-victims/ | false | 1 |
On Sunday, 2023 cornerback Kevis Thomas announced that he would be visiting Auburn on June 10. Thomas is currently committed to play for Vanderbilt. It appears that he is keeping the door open for other programs to try and pry him away from heading to Nashville.
Thomas is regarded as a three-star according to 247Sports’ recruiting rankings. He is listed as being 6 feet tall and 179 pounds. The product of Lowndes High School committed to the Commodores on May 1, 2022. It hasn’t changed the fact that he wants to visit other programs.
The Georgia native will visit Auburn on June 10, Maryland on June 17h, and Louisville on June 24. The Auburn coaching staff hasn’t extended an offer to Thomas, but that could change with his visit coming up.
Last season, Thomas played primarily cornerback for the Vikings. He recorded 25 tackles and an interception. The Tigers likely see him playing a role somewhat similar to Zion Puckett. Puckett came to Auburn at 6 feet tall and 200 pounds.
The two have similar frames and that could be something to keep an eye on. Thomas will likely put on some muscle and have the opportunity to play a similar role as Puckett if things don’t pan out with Vanderbilt.
It will be interesting to see if the coaching staff extends him an offer. The secondary will likely lose some key contributors after the 2022 season, so it will be key for the staff to bring in replacements. Thomas appears to be considering a handful of schools and has not closed the door on his recruitment. We will have to wait and see how the Tigers approach his recruitment and if they extend an offer or not.

Actis Set to Complete Stake Sale of $1.8-Billion Lekela by July
Bloomberg News
,(Bloomberg) -- Buyout firm Actis LLP is poised to sell its stake in Lekela Power, an Africa-focused renewable energy firm, as early as July, according to people with knowledge of the matter.
The private equity company has entered into exclusive talks with Infinity Power, a joint venture between Masdar and Egypt’s Infinity Energy, to buy the 60% stake, the people said, asking not to be identified because the information is not public. Lekela, which has renewable energy power projects in South Africa, Egypt, Senegal and Ghana, is valued at about $1.8 billion, according to one of the people.
Actis helped set up Lekela in 2015 and the group has built a 1,300-megawatt portfolio, according to its website. The private equity firm has about $16.3 billion assets under management and has done 165 exits.
Masdar and Infinity Energy didn’t immediately respond to emails seeking comment. Actis declined to comment.
Lekela’s other investor is Mainstream Renewable Power Ltd., backed by billionaire Kjell Inge Rokke’s Aker ASA.

A roadshow touring Scotland will visit Edinburgh on 15 June when cohousing projects will be explored and explained.
The event is part of a series organised by Cohousing Scotland called Places Called Home, which is funded by IKEA and The National Lottery Community Fund.
This type of housing is run by members, where residents care for each other, enjoy common space, but have their own self-contained homes. There is often an emphasis on environmental sustainability and ecological design.
Cohousing Scotland convener, Andrew Prendergast said: “We want more people in Scotland to know about Cohousing and all it has to offer.
“Currently, housing provision centres on the commercial developer-led private sector, on the one hand, and state-led social provision on the other. We believe it is time to look to new and innovative ways to solve our country’s housing crisis.”
“Cohousing Scotland sees a future where Cohousing is part of a thriving, community-led housing movement in Scotland – now is the time for change.”
The event will include an afternoon drop-in session, when information about wider housing issues will be available, followed by an evening panel discussion featuring expert panellists.
During the afternoon, a team of young architects from the ‘Imagine If’ collective will host an interactive game session, exploring what ‘home’ means and what our living spaces could look like in the future. | https://theedinburghreporter.co.uk/2022/06/roadshow-on-cohousing-coming-to-edinburgh/ | 2022-06-06T15:26:14Z | https://theedinburghreporter.co.uk/2022/06/roadshow-on-cohousing-coming-to-edinburgh/ | false | 1 |
Near-Death Veteran Can Only Moan as Ambulance Arrives at VA Hospital, Nurses' Competency Questioned After Grotesque Response
A comatose man who once served his nation died after being turned away from a veterans medical center in Gainesville, Florida, because an ambulance crew that brought him had no proof that he was a veteran.
The incident at the Malcom Randall VA Medical Center was investigated by the Veterans Administration’s Office of the Inspector General, which issued a report last week condemning what took place.
The incident took place in the summer of 2020, according to the May 31 report. The veteran was suffering from heart failure.
The unidentified man (60) died 10 hours later after being taken to a different hospital. The VA inspector general faulted staff at the Malcom Randall VA Medical Center in Gainesville for having “wasted critical time” by continuing to try to identify ..https://t.co/V0dufbBZMQ

“During transport, EMS personnel conveyed the patient’s initials and a contact number for a family member, and informed facility staff that they did not have any other patient identifying information. Facility staff, including four nurses, met the EMS responders at the Emergency Department ambulance bay and again requested the patient’s identification information,” the report stated.
The report chronicled the cold, hard facts of what took place as the veteran lay without treatment, suffering from septic shock, pneumonia, and large, open wounds on his legs.
“Later, at the request of one of the nurses, an Administrative Officer of the Day joined the nurses to request identifying information to verify the patient was an eligible veteran. The EMS responders reiterated they were unable to provide additional identifying information,” the report stated.
(The man was, in fact, “later verified to be an eligible veteran,” the report stated.)
“After waiting for a period of time in the ambulance bay, without facility staff attending to the patient, EMS responders asked if they should take the patient to Shands and facility staff responded ‘yes.’ EMS then reloaded the patient into the ambulance and transported the patient to Shands where the patient died later that day,” the report said.
Shands is a hospital affiliated with the University of Florida, directly across the street from the medical center, according to the report.
The report condemned the personnel who turned away a veteran.
“The OIG determined that facility Emergency Department nurses failed to provide emergency care to a patient who arrived at the facility by ambulance,” the report stated.
“Despite having been informed of the limited patient identifying information EMS personnel had received prior to arrival, Emergency Department nurses and an Administrative Officer of the Day wasted critical time by continuing to concentrate efforts on patient identification versus patient care,” the report stated.
“The Emergency Department nurses’ failure to prioritize medical intervention resulted in EMS personnel reloading the patient into the ambulance for transport to Shands where the patient died approximately 10 hours after admission.”
Noting that all who cared for the patient with the exception of the VA hospital staff identified his “critical medical condition,” the report stated the VA hospital’s “Emergency Department nurses disregarded the EMS personnel’s patient status report, failed to recognize the patient’s emergency medical condition, and inaccurately assessed the patient’s condition as less critical.”
No one lost a job over it.
“Although nursing and administrative staff were issued proposed removals, the Facility Director rescinded the removals and issued written warnings,” the report stated, noting that the director relied on information that was in dispute and “potentially compromised patient safety in the Emergency Department.”
Although names are not used, the OIG report said that the veteran who died was 60 years old.
On the day of the incident, according to the report, a neighbor had found the veteran unresponsive and called an ambulance. The neighbor told the ambulance crew that the man had recently been discharged from a VA hospital, the report said.
One nurse said, “the patient was moaning constantly and appeared to be in pain.”
The report noted that a security guard at the facility told the investigators that during the time the veteran was kept waiting, hospital staff were arguing with first responders, while other staff were insisting that the hospital had a duty to provide treatment, regardless of whether the man’s service status.
“The contract security guard recalled facility staff arguing with the EMS personnel stating that if they could not obtain the patient’s information, and determine veteran status, then they could not take the patient,” the report said.
The report also raised questions about the competency of the medical center’s nursing staff and its documentation.
“Facility policy requires nursing staff competency to be verified three times annually and prior to performing care. Competencies are to be maintained and documented in employee competency folders,” the report states.
“The OIG identified deficiencies in the completion, validation, and oversight of Emergency Department nurse competencies,” the report stated. “Specifically, a review of selected Emergency Department nurse competency folders revealed that some Ongoing Competency Assessments were incomplete and individual competencies were not validated. Further, the OIG found a lack of oversight measures for Emergency Department nurse competencies.”
The report’s conclusion was stark:
“The OIG determined that facility Emergency Department nurses failed to provide emergency care to a patient who arrived at the facility by ambulance,” its opening paragraph reads. “Despite having been informed of the limited patient identifying information EMS personnel had prior to arrival, Emergency Department nurses and an [Administrative Officer of the Day] wasted critical time by continuing to concentrate efforts on patient identification instead of focusing on patient care. The Emergency Department nurses’ failure to prioritize medical intervention resulted in EMS personnel reloading the patient into the ambulance and transporting the patient to Shands where the patient died approximately 10 hours after admission.”
It also included five recommendations, including making sure nursing competencies certifications are up to date and takes actions to avoid a repeat of the 2020 incident.
Recommendation No. 2 might be the one most non-medical personnel can relate to:
“The Malcom Randall VA Medical Center Director ensures that Emergency Department nurses and Administrative Officers of the Day prioritize patient care before patient eligibility status when patients present with an emergency medical condition, holds staff accountable when violations occur, and monitors for ongoing compliance.”

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The judge overseeing the remaining case of two former Minneapolis police officers charged in George Floyd’s killing ordered Monday that the trial be delayed until January to improve prospects for a fair trial.
Tou Thao and J. Alexander Kueng had been due to go on trial next Monday on charges of aiding and abetting second-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter in the May 2020 death of Floyd. But Hennepin County Judge Peter Cahill on Monday ordered that trial be delayed until Jan. 5.
Cahill denied a defense motion for a change of venue due to the extensive pretrial publicity surrounding the case. But he said media reports and recent events surrounding connected cases have created “a reasonable likelihood of an unfair trial” if it were to begin next week.
Cahill cited the May 18 guilty plea by Thao and Keung’s co-defendant, former Officer Thomas Lane. He also cited the convictions of Thao, Kueng and Lane on federal civil rights charges in a separate trial in federal court in February.
The judge said those two events and the publicity surrounding them could make it difficult for jurors to presume that Thao and Kueng are innocent of the state charges against them. So, he ordered the seven-month delay to diminish the effects of that publicity.
Cahill also presided over last year’s trial of former officer Derek Chauvin, which ended in a conviction for second-degree murder and a 22 1/2-year sentence for the white officer who kneeled on the Black man’s neck for 9 1/2 minutes despite Floyd’s fading pleas of “I can’t breathe.” The killing led to protests worldwide and a national reckoning on racial injustice. | https://www.ktsm.com/news/national-news/judge-delays-trial-of-2-former-officers-in-george-floyd-killing-until-2023/ | 2022-06-06T15:48:02Z | https://www.ktsm.com/news/national-news/judge-delays-trial-of-2-former-officers-in-george-floyd-killing-until-2023/ | false | 24 |
CONYERS — The Rockdale County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the fatal shooting of the Atlanta rapper known as Trouble at the Lake St. James apartment complex early Sunday morning.
According to the RCSO, officers responded to a shooting at about 3:20 a.m. at the complex located at 50 St. James Drive. When they arrived, deputies found Trouble, 34, whose real name is Mariel Orr, lying on the ground suffering from a gunshot wound.
The Sheriff's Office said Orr shot once in the chest and was taken to an area hospital where he later died.
The Sheriff’s Office is looking for a suspect in the shooting identified as Jamichael Jones, 33, also from Atlanta. Warrants have been taken out for Orr charging him with murder, home invasion and aggravated assault.
According to RCSO public information officer Jedidia Canty, Orr was visiting a female friend at the apartment complex when the shooting took place. She said Jones also knew the female but did not know the victim. She said that the shooting was the result of a domestic situation.
Canty said the Sheriff's Office does not believe residents of the area are in any further danger.
"I wouldn't say this has anything to do with the area," she said. "This was an isolated situation."
Investigators are asking that anyone with information about this incident contact the Rockdale County Sheriff’s Office at 770-278-8188 or 770-843-7647.
