A Greene County man accused of shooting and killing a man outside a bar in Xenia, then leading police on a pursuit before being taken into custody has been indicted on a dozen charges.
Brad Alan Stewart, 32, was indicted on aggravated murder, two counts of murder, two counts of felonious assault, one count of having weapons while under disability, one count of aggravated robbery, two counts of tampering with evidence, one count of grand theft of a motor vehicle and one count of receiving stolen property, all felonies, as well as one misdemeanor charge of failure to comply with the order or signal of a police officer, according to Greene County court records.
Stewart’s charges stem from May 26. At 1:35 a.m., emergency crews were called to the Roundtable Bar at 306 Home Ave., where they found an unconscious man with a gunshot wound.
The man, later identified as 30-year-old Jacob S. Scoby of Xenia, was taken to Kettering Health Greene Memorial Hospital, where he died, according to police.
Police that Stewart fled the scene in a red truck after taking the keys from a witness.
At 10:40 a.m., police located Stewart in the area of Clifton Road, and he fled in a car, leading a pursuit before stopping in the 2500 block of Wilberforce-Clifton Road and surrendering, being taken into custody just five minutes after the pursuit started.
It is unclear what led to the shooting, but video footage showed Stewart and Scoby fighting just outside the door the bar. Police said that Stewart grabbed Scoby by the throat with one hand while holding the gun in the other, and when they separated, he reportedly moved the gun to his other hand and fired.

The ongoing correction in global equity markets have put cogs in the bull run seen across sectors with some sectoral indices losing up to 25 percent.
Due to a surge in inflation, central banks world over have set out on aggressive interest rate hikes. Higher interest rates do anchor inflation but impact the pace of growth in the economy. “The valuation multiples adjust for higher cost of capital and a possible slower pace of growth in the economy and corporate earnings as a response to aggressive policy rate hikes by central banks,” said Gaurav Dua, Senior VP and Head of Capital Market Strategy, Sharekhan, by BNP Paribas.
“Our experience of interest rate hikes shows that the equity market tends to turn volatile for a period of four to eight months after the first interest rate hike. The situation stabilises by the end of 12 months and the equity market begins to do well again,” Dua said.
This has been evident in the US equity markets for the past four decades and also in India during the interest rate hike cycles through the last two decades. A similar trend is expected this time too.
The Nifty IT index is among the top losers of the year 2022 till date. The valuations of Indian IT companies, which were soaring high till recently and had become unjustifiable, got the does needed to bring them to reasonable levels. The IT index has lost 24.2 percent since the start of this calendar year and there could be more pain in store for the sector.
“I think there is going to be quite a fall before we see a bottom by tech stocks,” said Suman Bannerjee, CIO of Hedonova (an AIF firm). “As PE contracts and these stocks revert to more reasonable valuations, the indices will fall.”
The broader markets are impacted moderately and it's only inflated tech stocks that are falling. This is evident from a 23 percent drop in NASDAQ, compared to 12 percent in the much broader benchmark S&P500.
“The IT index is up 40 percent over the past year, driven by the boost in earnings on the back of increased digitisation globally after Covid disruptions,” said Ram Kalyan Medury, Founder and CEO, Jama Wealth.
While the industry saw a massive jump in demand, very soon the costs of retaining and acquiring talent escalated, resulting in a dip in margins. The inflationary pressures only added to these costs. In the expectations of a multi-year investment cycle, IT companies increased their hiring activities which significantly expanded their employee base.
The large number of freshers hired by the companies only added to the costs before they become productive, billable and start reflecting in the reduction in employee costs. This can be seen in the dip in operating margins by nearly 200 basis points.
“Some of India’s leading IT companies have witnessed a 50 percent jump in their employee headcounts between FY19 and FY22. The companies went on a hiring spree chiefly in FY22 to capitalise on a decadal growth opportunity,” said Vinit Bolinjkar, Head of Research at Ventura Securities Ltd.
However, Bolinjkar expect the order flows to improve gradually over a period of time and may not be in line with the increase in employee cost of the company. This may create a mismatch between revenue and employee cost, which may impact the profitability of IT companies in FY23 and FY24.
Other experts, however, are positive about the sector from the medium to long term perspective. “There has been substantial de-rating in Indian IT stocks but medium to long term demand-side forecast remain strong and valuations have started to look reasonable for the services based companies in IT domain,” said Anil Rego, Founder and fund manager -Right Horizons PMS.
Mohit Nigam, Head - PMS, Hem Securities concurred as he also holds a positive view about the sector and sees limited downside at these levels. He is of the opinion that the current valuations are in reasonable band and long term growth drivers of the sector are intact.
“The industry is seeing continued demand and is likely to deliver good growth, while the rupee-dollar exchange rate also could be favourable over the next year, thereby aiding operating margins,” Medury said.
IT fails to beat estimates on supply-side challenges but strong demand may help rebound

Updated June 6, 2022 at 4:43 PM ET
The mothers Tess Frear works with were already struggling. Most of them are single parents, typically from economically disadvantaged families. Sometimes they're escaping domestic violence; sometimes they're as young as 15.
For these new mothers, it was hard enough just trying to get basics such as diapers or clothing. Then came the baby formula shortage.
"There's definitely desperation," said Frear, executive director of the baby supply bank Helping Mamas in Knoxville, Tenn. "These mamas are just scared, you know. What are they going to do?"
More than three months since Abbott Nutrition issued a voluntary recall of powder formula manufactured at a Michigan production plant, further stressing pandemic-related strains in the supply chain, that desperation has become more acute. One month ago, the average out-of-stock rate nationwide was about 40%, according to data on 130,000 stores tracked by the retail analytics company Datasembly. For the week ending May 28, that rate had surged to 73.6%.
Loading...
The frustration is being felt almost everywhere. This time last year, the average out-of-stock rate in the U.S. hovered around 6%. Store shelves were practically full all of the time. By the end of the last full week in May, not a single state was below 45%, according to Datasembly. In states like Arizona, California, Georgia and Mississippi, the rate was creeping toward 95%. Most places you look, shelves are nearly bare.
For some, the crisis has been particularly painful. Even though most families will give formula to an infant at some point during their first year, parents from low-income households or from communities of color often depend on it the most.
Loading...
For some, searching for formula has become a job
The majority of all formula sold in the U.S. is purchased through a federally funded food assistance initiative known as the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children, or WIC. Somewhere between 50% and 65% of all formula is purchased by WIC families, according to the National WIC Association. That's enough formula, the group says, to feed an estimated 1.2 million infants.
"This crisis, which is truly a manufacturing sector failure, has impacted all parents of formula-fed infants, but it magnifies the disparities that have long existed," according to Brian Dittmeier, senior director of public policy at the National WIC Association. "Searching for formula has to an extent become a full-time job, and low-income families that are working two jobs already may not have the bandwidth to fully invest in the search," he said.
Similarly, the shortage has underscored what are sometimes deep disparities in breastfeeding rates when broken down by race. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that infants be exclusively breastfed for about the first six months, with continued breastfeeding while introducing complementary foods for at least 12 months. And while more than 90% of Asian American mothers and 85% of mothers who are white breastfeed their newborns, for Black mothers, the rate is just under 74%, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
In some places, the rates are far lower. In both Arkansas and Mississippi, for example, less than 53% of mothers who are Black breastfed their babies at birth, according to the CDC.
There are myriad reasons why mothers rely on formula. Some, for example, turn to it after facing issues with lactation or latching. Others might need it because an illness with the mother or the baby makes nursing impossible.
But experts say the ongoing formula shortage also highlights key structural barriers that keep millions of women from breastfeeding. For example, just 51% of employers make it easy for new moms to breastfeed by providing an on-site lactation room, according to the CDC.
Other parents might lack paid family leave at their jobs — once back at work, many breastfeed at lower rates than those with more generous leave policies. One study published last year in the journal Health Equity found 33% of Black women and 25% of Hispanic women received no pay while on leave. For white and Asian American women, the rates were 10% and 13% respectively.
"People are saying, 'Why don't they breastfeed?' Well, maybe they can't breastfeed at their job or maybe there is some other circumstance where they cannot breastfeed. There's just a variety of reasons why people cannot," said Frear.
The U.S. is importing formula to ease the shortage
The White House says overall formula sales are up an estimated 7% from last year, but to help make up for the current shortage the Biden administration has invoked the Defense Production Act to speed up domestic production of infant formula. The White House has also secured commitments to import more than 127 million additional bottles of formula from overseas.
The Abbott plant at the center of the recall reopened over the weekend, but the company said it will still be around two weeks before the first shipments of formula are available on grocery shelves again.
Until then, Frear said she and her network will keep working as best they can to help as many parents as they can get the formula that they need. But it's hard work. There are many different kinds of formula on the market, and many of the children they serve have health issues that require a specific type of product.
Sometimes the organization can track it down from one of their followers on Facebook or Instagram. When they can't, they'll help pair a new mother with a pediatrician or nutritionist to try to figure out a temporary alternative.
"We just take it one day at a time," said Frear. "Each day we keep on moving forward and try to help these families be the best that they can be."

DENVER — On Tuesday, Colorado Avalanche fans looked for tickets to the Stanley Cup Final and collectively scoffed at the prices.
The cheapest tickets on the secondary market for the Avs' first game were going for $900.
“I share the frustration of those who are looking at these prices and say, ‘really?!'” Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser said.
Weiser cheers for the Avs but isn't a huge hockey fan. The Nuggets are his team of choice, but he can still sympathize with fans trying to score tickets to the Stanley Cup Final who feel like they've experienced price gouging.
“You may say, 'That’s outrageous. I’ll never pay that much,' but it’s not against the law," Weiser said.
"As long as you’re told what you’re getting, even if the price is crazy high, that’s the market," Weiser said. "That’s supply and demand.”
In 2020, Colorado passed a law to address price gouging and protect vulnerable people during times of emergency. The law only applies during a disaster declaration, Weiser said.
“Colorado passed this law once we found ourselves in a pandemic and we heard stories about people engaging in really unconscionable behavior," Weiser said. "Jacking up prices for hand sanitizer and the like in ways that were not justifiable and not comparable to what other responsible sellers were doing.”
There were also concerns of price gouging in Colorado after the Marshall Fire destroyed more than 1,000 homes in December. Weiser's office sent letters to several short-term rental companies urging them to address illegal price gouging.
“We haven’t pursued any cases here in Colorado under our statute because we haven’t found any that rise to that level," Weiser said. "It’s a pretty high standard and only happens in unique situations."
Missing out on the Stanley Cup Final in person might feel like a disaster to some fans, but hockey tickets aren't like hand sanitizer during a pandemic.
“[The law] only is applied to a set of what I’ll call critical goods and services," Weiser said. "So even if somehow, some way there was an emergency, getting tickets to an Avs game would not be covered by the price gouging law.”
Still, $900 doesn't exactly sound fair to most fans.
“That does suck, so I give people my sympathies for that frustration, but I will also tell Avs fans and others, there’s no legal claim or violation here," Weiser said.
Stanley Cup Final tickets may be unaffordable, but we're all free to complain.
“It is frustrating, and people can complain away," Weiser said.

For the next six months, thousands of people across the U.K. will be working 32 hours a week in the largest four-day workweek pilot the world has ever seen.
The experiment includes more than 3,300 people across 70 companies in industries ranging from health care to local fish and chip shops. It's being put on by 4 Day Week Global, the 4 Day Week Campaign, the U.K.-based think tank Autonomy, and researchers at Cambridge University, Oxford University and Boston College.
The idea is pretty simple. Workers make the same amount of money they would for a 40-hour workweek, but they only work 80% of the time. In exchange for fewer hours, workers commit to maintaining the productivity they would in a five-day workweek.
Calls for a 32-hour workweek have increased, especially as many people around the world are facing burnout from the pandemic.
"As we emerge from the pandemic, more and more companies are recognizing that the new frontier for competition is quality of life, and that reduced-hour, output-focused working is the vehicle to give them a competitive edge," Joe O'Connor, CEO of 4 Day Week Global, said in a statement.
"The impact of the 'great resignation' is now proving that workers from a diverse range of industries can produce better outcomes while working shorter and smarter," he said.
The outcomes of a 32-hour workweek are something that Will Stronge, director of research at Autonomy, focuses on. Stronge, who is also the co-author of Overtime: Why We Need A Shorter Working Week, told NPR's Life Kit podcast last year that in some ways the five-day workweek is outdated and leads to something he calls the creep of overtime into our personal lives.
"Our working culture has changed to be one where it's much more about going above and beyond — working beyond your hours either for better career prospects or simply because it is demanded of you by your boss," he said. "Now, during the pandemic, you're in your living room with your laptop. So it's hard to switch off this creep which has infiltrated our working lives."
Stronge has argued that a shorter workweek would be better for people's mental health and could even increase productivity.
"For many organizations, what you lose in labor time, you gain in greater productivity on the job," he said. "We can't concentrate all the time, particularly if you're overworked and you have burnout. And so reducing the working week has reaped dividends in terms of productivity and worker well-being, which means they come to work refreshed. They come to work liking their job a bit more and wanting to kind of get the work done so that they can have a nice weekend and so on."
Researchers will measure any changes in productivity
As the large U.K. pilot gets underway, productivity is one area researchers will focus on.
"We'll be analyzing how employees respond to having an extra day off, in terms of stress and burnout, job and life satisfaction, health, sleep, energy use, travel and many other aspects of life," Juliet Schor, professor of sociology at Boston College, said in a statement.
While it will be at least six months before final results from the U.K. pilot are revealed, a similar experiment by Microsoft Japan in 2019 resulted in a 40% increase in productivity. Earlier, a New Zealand company testing four-day weeks announced a 20% boost in employee productivity in 2018.
Trials in Iceland of some 2,500 workers between 2015 and 2019 found that productivity remained the same or improved in most cases.
And as for the extra weekend day people pick up, Stronge said many people say they would use the extra day off for getting personal tasks done or spending more time with their friends and family.
"It does make a huge difference," Stronge said. "And so I think it should — it would be a bit of a game-changer."

After eight seasons of coaching the Utah Jazz, Quin Snyder is saying goodbye. Before stepping down, Snyder was the fourth-longest tenured active head coach in the NBA, behind only legends Gregg Popovich, Erik Spoelstra, and Steve Kerr. In his eight seasons, Snyder managed an impressive 372-264 record. That record is even more impressive when you remember that when Snyder began coaching the Jazz, they had just come off a 25-57 season.
“Coach Q” quickly turned that rebuilding team into a playoff threat. In his third season as head coach, he led the Jazz to 51 wins, a playoff berth, and a series win.
Of all Quin Snyder’s accomplishments, perhaps none are as impressive as his belief in and development of a young Rudy Gobert. When Snyder was hired, Gobert had completed his rookie season in which he played fewer than 10 minutes per game and was widely seen as a longshot to be an effective NBA player. Coach Snyder saw potential in the young center and made the controversial decision to start him over the more established and more statistically productive Enes Freedom (then known as Enes Kanter). Two years later, Gobert earned All-NBA 2nd team honors. Currently, Gobert is well on pace for a Hall of Fame induction, and one has to wonder what his career would have looked like if Quin Snyder hadn’t been his coach.
Forever grateful for Quin. Gave me a chance 8 years ago and believed in me when not a lot of people did. And helped our team grow into a Western conference powerhouse through all the ups and downs. Wishing you nothing but the best in your next chapter! https://t.co/ToJb7rOheg
— Rudy Gobert (@rudygobert27) June 6, 2022
Other successes of Quin Snyder’s Utah Jazz tenure include his discovery and development of Joe Ingles, his trust in a rookie Donovan Mitchell, and his orchestration of elite defenses and elite offenses. When given a roster full of scrappy defenders, he maximized them and posted the best defense in the NBA. When dealt a hand of shooters, he organized them into the best offense in the league.
Snyder was a significant part of the three-point revolution in the NBA. While he didn’t start it, he did push it forward with enthusiasm. The 2021-22 Utah Jazz shot 43 three-pointers per game, good for third-most all-time behind only the Houston Rockets in 2018-19 and 2019-20.
Quin Snyder developed an offense built on utilizing drive & kick movement, rim gravity, and ball movement. “The Blender”, as it was called, is the engine that kept Utah’s offense running despite losing their best offensive player in free agency.
Quin Snyder’s playbook was famously, or maybe infamously, difficult to learn. When NBA veteran Mike Conley was acquired by the Jazz, he joked about the complexity of Snyder’s system.
As it turns out, the steep learning curve was worth it. Conley found his role in Snyder’s system and earned his first All-Star appearance. When guys buy in, Quin Snyder can maximize their talents.
Despite never attaining the postseason success that he had aimed for, Quin Snyder’s time in Utah can only be described as a success. He took a young, reeling roster and pushed it into consistent success. He successfully developed all kinds of players, from star lottery picks to unknown fringe players. The Utah Jazz were brought back into NBA relevance mainly on the back of Coach Quin Snyder.

Opinion
Rugby league is art, and the arts community could learn a few lessons from it
Osman Faruqi
ColumnistNarrative. Character development. Slow-motion action scenes. History. Legacy. Drama. Conflict. Resolution. No, unlike my colleague Helen Pitt I’m not talking about the power of cinema but rather the blockbuster appeal of the greatest sporting event in the world: State of Origin.
If it seems silly that the NRL’s annual showdown between Queensland and NSW is even being compared to the phenomenon of filmmaking that’s because it kind of is. But it’s a debate that’s been foisted upon us by the poorly scheduled clash between round one of Origin and the opening night of the Sydney Film Festival, both taking place tonight.
For those of us who love both sport and art, and particularly the Sydney Film Festival, it’s a dilemma. The festival’s opening night film is by all accounts a worthy examination of Australia’s colonial legacy and a celebration of First Nations history. It’s also a great opportunity to celebrate the power of cinema, and a return to tent pole fixtures on our arts and culture calendar.
But how can a film – any film – compare to the magic of Origin? The idea that being forced to choose between game one and the Film Festival is a choice between sports and the arts assumes that rugby league is not itself art.
Are Phil Gould’s final words before kick-off every year not art? When he quoted the scene from Game of Thrones where Ned Stark explains to his son Bran what true bravery really is, and compared that to playing rugby league, was that not art?
When Macklemore performed his same-sex marriage anthem Same Love at the NRL grand final was that not art?
When Brian “I love running into big players” To’o runs into big players is that not art?
When musician Roy Bing remixed commentary from the legendary voice of NRL, Ray Warren, into a catchy dance track that implored us to “look at Tallis” was that not art?
Is Nathan Cleary’s chin not art?!
The idea that sport and art are distinct categories with no overlap in purpose, form or audience lacks nuance. But perhaps this framing of them as competitors for eyeballs and resources isn’t surprising, given how much government policy, particularly during the pandemic, was geared towards keeping the ball in play versus the financial wellbeing of the arts community.
Blaming the sports community for having successfully argued that Australians love footy doesn’t seem like a winning strategy for the arts, however. The frustration is understandable, but when surveys show that 98 per cent of Australians engage in the arts whose fault is it really when that popular support doesn’t translate to better policy and more money? Is it time arts administrators and advocates thought more strategically about mobilising the public?
Why does the Sydney Film Festival open on a Wednesday night (let alone Origin night)? Why are so many writers’ festival events held during daylight hours on a weekday, prohibiting working-age people from attending?
Of course the arts needs a serious injection of financial resources. It deserves to be taken much more seriously by government (the early signs are that it will be by the new federal Labor government). But until then, the arts community can take matters into their own hands.
It’s time for the Film Festival’s director, Nashen Moodley, to get on the blower to rugby league chairman Peter V’landys to sort this out. Punters and film lovers are sick of having to choose between State of Origin and the Film Festival. There’s only solution: a mutually beneficial agreement to screen the opening night film of the festival at Homebush as pre-game entertainment.
Let the fans get their fill of both brilliant Australian cinema and brilliant rugby league. It’s a win-win.

- A competitive couple have been left in hysterics after controversial challenge
- Personal trainer Josef Rackich and his wife Maryam Matti tried the 'simple' task
- The challenge can be completed by most women - but most men struggle
A competitive couple have been left in hysterics after trying a 'simple' TikTok challenge women find easy but men can't complete.
Star personal trainer Josef Rakich, 31, and his wife Maryam Matti, 33, both attempted to step over a broom handle while holding it close to the floor - with hilarious results.
While Maryam gracefully stepped over the pole Josef's feet appeared to be glued to the ground.

Star personal trainer Josef Rakich, 31, and his wife Maryam Matti, 33, both attempted to step over a broom handle while holding it close to the floor - with hilarious results
When he finally lifted his left foot he lost balance before giggling and failing the challenge and sharing the video with his 775,000 followers.
'At least I can p*ss standing up,' the famous New Zealand born personal trainer captioned the video.
Before his wife hit back with a passive aggressive quip of her own: 'At least I can actually get my dirty laundry in the basket and not next to it.'
The couple's attempts at the challenge quickly went viral, impressing their fans.
'This is hilarious,' said one woman before deciding to try the challenge with her husband.
But some men claimed they were able to step over the pole.
'My girlfriend challenged me to this and was very disappointed at how easy it was for me,' one said.
The challenge is the latest in a string of viral mobility and gravity centered challenges which men struggle to complete.
While Maryam gracefully stepped over the pole Josef's feet appeared to be glued to the ground
The chair challenge was the most recent to go viral, with hundreds of men and women comparing their results on TikTok.
The challenges asks competitors to lift a chair from a bent over position and is said to have baffled scientists.
The challenge has gained notoriety on TikTok as couples post hilarious videos showing the unexpected results.
With their heads pressed up against the wall, they grab a chair.
A viral 'chair challenge' - involving picking up a chair from a bent-over position - has couples in hysterics as women can do it but men can't
The clip shows a man trying to do the challenge. Gavin wobbles as he tries to get up before toppling over to one side as laughter erupts from behind the lens
They must then lift the chair up to their chest and stand up.
Multiple people have tried it, but it seems as if only women are able to do it successfully.
Scientists have different thoughts on why this could be the case, one involving varying centres of gravity for the different genders.
The other theory is to do with men having larger feet - so further to walk away from the wall to reach the required paces.
A third challenge calls for men and women to keep their balance and avoid landing on their face while moving from all falls to holding their hands behind their backs.
A new TikTok challenge tests men and women's centre of gravity, requiring them to get on all-fours with their elbows on the ground and head in their hands
In most videos, the woman maintains her balance, while the man's face drops immediately to the ground.
Couples are now posting their versions of the 'center of gravity challenge' to TikTok.
One woman joked she was 'certain her husband has a concussion' after video footage showed him face planting into their carpet.
The woman erupted into a fit of laughter as she watched her husband drop to the ground while she remained on her knees with her hands behind her back.
'Apparently men have a different center of gravity that prevents them from doing this', she captioned her video. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-10894665/Personal-trainer-Josef-Rakich-fails-viral-TikTok-challenge-women-complete.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-06-08T03:13:30Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-10894665/Personal-trainer-Josef-Rakich-fails-viral-TikTok-challenge-women-complete.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false | 3 |

More than 2,000 migrants are heading to US in caravan, official says
(CNN) - A group of about 2,300 people left the southern Mexican city of Tapachula on Monday, heading north, according to an official with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.
The official told CNN the group comprises mainly Venezuelans and includes migrants from Nicaragua, Cuba, El Salvador, and Honduras.
In a bulletin, a regional immigration group, Colectivo de Observación y Monitoreo de Derechos Humanos en el SE Mexicano, said that the group included principally families and children “who demand access to migration procedures and dignified treatment by the authorities.”
Tapachula, located just across the border from Guatemala, is a popular way station for migrants traveling from Central America.
Under Mexican immigration laws, migrants and asylum-seekers are often made to wait in the area for several months with limited work opportunities.
This caravan gathered partially in protest of immigration policies, and it would be weeks before they arrived at the U.S. southern border, assuming they all did. Caravans often dwindle in size as they move north.
Caravans of migrants have left Tapachula regularly in the past year, although this current group appears to be one of the largest.

Bill Cosby’s civil trial accuser says he molested her at 16
By JONATHAN LANDRUM Jr.
AP Entertainment Writer
SANTA MONICA, Calif. (AP) — Judy Huth recalled being distraught while describing an allegation that Bill Cosby sexually assaulted her near a game room at the Playboy Mansion in 1975. While shedding tears, Huth testified in a civil trial of Cosby on Tuesday that he molested her when she was 16. She claims Cosby tried to put his hand down her tight pants, exposed himself before he forced Huth to touch him sexually on a bed in a “blue room,” which she says was adjacent to the game room. She says Cosby said Cosby forced her to perform a sex act in the bedroom. Cosby has denied the allegations by Huth. | https://ktvz.com/news/ap-national-news/2022/06/07/bill-cosbys-civil-trial-accuser-says-he-molested-her-at-16/ | 2022-06-08T03:42:22Z | https://ktvz.com/news/ap-national-news/2022/06/07/bill-cosbys-civil-trial-accuser-says-he-molested-her-at-16/ | false | null |
In the wiggle of a nose, a man covered the “Bewitched” statue in Salem, Massachusetts with red paint, police said.
Witnesses called police at about 5 p.m. Monday to report someone spray painting the bronze statue, Capt. John Burke said Tuesday. The statue depicts actor Elizabeth Montgomery — as lead character Samantha Stephens in the 1960s sitcom — sitting on a broomstick in front of a crescent moon.
An officer in the area spotted a man fitting witness descriptions of the vandal and after a brief chase arrested a 32-year-old city resident on charges of defacing property, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct, Burke said.
His motivation remains unclear.
“In between meetings, was disappointed to hear the Bewitched Samantha statute downtown was vandalized,” Salem Mayor Kim Driscoll tweeted Monday night. “I’m grateful to (Salem police) for their quick work apprehending the individual responsible. We’ll work to get the statue cleaned, as fast as a twitch of Samantha’s nose.”
Red paint on the upper half of the statue has already been cleaned off, Burke said.
The statue was erected in the city famous for the 1692 witch trials in 2005, despite protests from some who said it trivializes the tragedy of the trials.

City of Biloxi open the door for medical marijuana businesses
BILOXI, Miss. (WLOX) -Biloxi City Council approves an ordinance opening the door to medical marijuana businesses in the city.
As we reported, the Mississippi Medical Marijuana Act passed in February, legalizing medical marijuana. The act is heavily regulated by the state although cities were given the option to make decisions particularly on zoning.
Two weeks ago, Biloxi city council did not want to make any decisions on medical marijuana without having the city attorney present during the meeting.
Today they finally passed an ordinance allowing zoning in the city. The vote was split 5-1. Council member, Robert Deming made it clear that he wanted dispensaries to have the worked “medical” in front of them.
WLOX asked him if he thought bringing medical marijuana businesses in Biloxi is a good idea.
“That’s kind of a catch 22 question, right? Because do I believe medical marijuana is a good thing. 77 percent of the people on the ballot voted for it,” Deming said. So, it is a good thing that we are upholding the will of the people, yes. Do I think it’s going to benefit financially, probably. Do I think it’s ethically or morally right, that’s for someone individually to determine for themselves.”
All applicants must be licensed by the state. The city will be involved in making sure all applicants meet all zoning requirements.
This includes making sure dispensaries are one thousand feet away from schools, churches, and daycares.

Nikita Kucherov scored on a breakaway and Andrei Vasilevskiy had 33 saves Tuesday night, helping the Tampa Bay Lightning shut down the visiting New York Rangers 4-1 and even the NHL’s Eastern Conference final at two games apiece.
Kucherov took a pass from Ondrej Palat in the middle of the ice and skated in on goaltender Igor Shesterkin to give the two-time defending Stanley Cup champions a two-goal lead just over 13 minutes into the second period.
Pat Maroon, Steven Stamkos and Palat also scored for the Lightning, who have rebounded from losing the first two games of the series on the road to keep their bid to become the first team in nearly 40 years to win three consecutive Stanley Cup titles alive.
#BOLTSWIN AND TIE THE SERIES!!!!! pic.twitter.com/NxS9C5s9xR
— Tampa Bay Lightning (@TBLightning) June 8, 2022
Game 5 is Thursday night at Madison Square Garden, where the Rangers won Games 1 and 2 and are 8-1 this postseason.
Vasilevskiy stopped 28 of 30 shots to win Game 3 and was even better Tuesday night, when he extended a stretch in which he did not give up a goal to nearly 67 minutes before New York’s Artemi Panarin scored on the power play at 16:27 of the third period.
Until Vasilevskiy’s bid for a shutout ended, the Rangers hadn’t scored since Chris Kreider’s power-play goal put them up 2-0 at 9:44 of the second period in Game 3.
It has been all Tampa Bay since then, with Kucherov and Stamkos scoring to wipe out the Game 3 deficit before Palat won it in the final minute.
The defending champs started faster Tuesday night, scoring on Maroon’s rebound just 2:38 into the game.
It was the third goal of the playoffs for Maroon, a 34-year-old, fourth-line forward who’s chasing a fourth consecutive Stanley Cup title after winning with St. Louis in 2019 and signing with Tampa Bay before the following season.

Stamkos’ goal built the lead to 3-0 early in the third period. Palat added an empty-netter with 8.7 seconds remaining, finishing with a goal and two assists.
Shesterkin, who faced 51 shots in Game 3, stopped 27 of 30 shots Tuesday night.
NOTES: The Rangers played without forward Ryan Strome (lower body), who was scratched after skating in pregame warmups. He was injured Sunday, when he exited in the second period after only playing a little over seven minutes. … New York forward Filip Chytil left just past the midpoint of the second period after a hit by Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman. He missed the rest of the game with an upper-body injury. … The Lightning played for the seventh straight game without forward Brayden Point, who has been out of the lineup since suffering a lower-body injury during Game 7 of Tampa Bay’s first-round victory over Toronto.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Treasury Department on Tuesday announced the first state awards will go to Virginia, Louisiana, New Hampshire and West Virginia in a massive federal effort to bring affordable, high-speed internet to all American homes and businesses.
Projects in the four states are the first to receive funding as part of a $10 billion capital project fund for broadband access, included as part of Congress’ 2021 COVID-19 relief bill, the American Rescue Plan.
The program is one of a spate of new initiatives to try to make high-speed internet attainable for all Americans.
“COVID drove home the point that broadband is not a ‘nice to have,’ it is an economic necessity,” Virginia Democratic Sen. Mark Warner, who pushed for the broadband plan in the Senate, said in a call with reporters on Monday to announce the awards.
High-speed internet remains out of reach for tens of millions of Americans, many in rural areas. Those living in more remote areas are among the last to get access because for most big broadband companies, it has not been profitable enough to connect to the small number of households there.
Nearly 20% of rural Americans do not have access to 25/3 Mbps or faster broadband service, according to the 2021 }report }on access from the Federal Communications Commission.
Urgency of access
The pandemic demonstrated the urgency of internet access, as people relied on remote connections for medical visits, school and work.
In response, Congress allocated record funding levels to expand broadband access to underserved communities — through the infrastructure bill, various COVID-19 relief bills and the fiscal 2022 spending bill. The new cash-inflows create a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for states to connect nearly everyone to high speed internet.
“Three to four years from now, we should not have an excuse if you are not able to get broadband,” said Warner.
The American Rescue Plan has already spent or committed more than $25 billion to invest in affordable high-speed internet and connectivity. Of that sum, $10 billion is through the capital projects fund, which will provide resources directly to states
Those working on the program say this new push of funding and programs from state and federal governments represents a new era. Gene Sperling, the White House American Rescue Plan coordinator, said he has been working on various efforts to close the digital divide since the Clinton administration and has never seen anything like what is happening now.
“Without question there has never been anything like a pandemic to create a national teaching moment that we cannot have equality unless all Americans have access to high speed affordable internet,” Sperling said.
Too many programs?
But a federal watchdog agency recently criticized the government for excessive programs to expand internet access. There are more than 100 federal programs administered by 15 different agencies, according to a }report} last week from the Government Accountability Office. The oversight agency said it has led to a fragmented, overlapping patchwork of programs that should be synchronized.
Jacob Leibenluft, who oversees this program for the Treasury Department, said his agency has worked with others across the federal government to collaborate on data and programs to try to manage around the issue.
The first grants include $177 million to Louisiana to connect nearly 88,500 homes that lack internet access through a competitive grant program in the state. State officials estimate it will close the digital divide for about 25% of those in the state without high-speed internet.
Virginia will get $220 million to expand high-speed internet access to more than 76,800 homes and businesses — about 28% of those that lack internet.
New Hampshire will receive $50 million to bring high-speed internet service to 15,000 homes and businesses through the state’s Broadband Contract Program. The program aims to connect the most underserved rural areas of the state and should bring high-speed internet to half of those who currently lack it, according to state officials.
These states are the first to receive grants because they were the first fully developed plans to come in, according to the Treasury Department. The agency will continue to approve plans from states on a rolling basis. The deadline for states to submit their plans is in late September. | https://www.iberianet.com/louisiana-picked-for-federal-grants-to-expand-affordable-high-speed-internet/article_14aa16cc-e6b1-11ec-bd14-f3b207d426e4.html | 2022-06-08T03:50:39Z | https://www.iberianet.com/louisiana-picked-for-federal-grants-to-expand-affordable-high-speed-internet/article_14aa16cc-e6b1-11ec-bd14-f3b207d426e4.html | false | 5 |

Bachelor star Keira Maguire flaunts her washboard abs in a midriff top after toning her physique with daily 'hot Pilates' classes
Since finding fame on The Bachelor, Keira Maguire has become one of Australia's most successful health and beauty influencers.
And this week, the 36-year-old flaunted her washboard abs in a midriff top and matching skirt on Instagram.
Keira accessorised with a Balenciaga handbag and styled her brown hair in luscious waves.
Ab-solutely fabulous! Bachelor alum Keira Maguire flaunted her washboard abs in a midriff top and matching skirt on Instagram
She also flaunted her pearly white veneers, which she had done by celebrity dentist Dr Deepan Duraisamy (a.k.a. Dr Dee) at Vogue Dental Studios in Melbourne.
'Hot bod with a huge heart!' gushed one fan, while another wrote: 'I love your abs!'
Skye Wheatley, Lisa Curry, and a number of other celebrities also commented on the post.
The secret to Keira's physique is hot Pilates, with the reality star attending five classes a week.
Say cheese: She also flaunted her pearly white veneers, which she had done by celebrity dentist Dr Deepan Duraisamy (a.k.a. Dr Dee) at Vogue Dental Studios in Melbourne
On top of that, she also does reformer Pilates and follows a strict diet.
Last year, the Bachelor in Paradise star revealed she only uses Instagram as a source of income during an SBS program discussing narcissistic personality disorder.
'To be honest with you, it is my job and it is how I make money. If I had a choice, I would probably, I probably wouldn't use it,' she said.

Keira has more than 140,000 Instagram followers, and regularly uses the social media app to promote brands and products.
Elsewhere in the interview, Keira admitted she'd been branded a 'narcissist' a handful of times after finding fame as the villain on the 2016 season of The Bachelor.
'I was like a very strong, confident character, which is who I am. I am not going to deny that,' she explained.
'I speak with a lot of conviction. I can back myself. I just feel like a lot of people see that as a narcissistic trait.'
Flashback: Keira is pictured on Richie Strahan's season of The Bachelor back in 2016

But Keira admitted she does have some narcissistic traits, but they are 'essential' for survival.
'Of course you need to have some sort of trait - you need to have an ego to be in this industry,' she added.
'You need an ego to survive in today's day and age. I don't think I have a narcissistic disorder. I feel like I have traits of it, definitely.'

INTERVIEW: ‘Deliver the care our ocean needs – together’, urge co-hosts of UN conference
World Oceans Day marked on 8 June, reminds us of the significant role oceans have in everyday life. Moreover, the 2022 theme – Revitalization: collective action for the ocean – underlines the importance of acting together to save our ocean.
At the end of the month, world leaders, youth, entrepreneurs, and civil society will gather in Lisbon, Portugal, for the second UN Ocean Conference, to mobilize action and jumpstart science-based innovative solutions aimed at starting a new chapter of global ocean action.
Co-hosted by Portugal and Kenya, the event will be a platform to effectively address the challenges that the ocean is now facing.
June 8 is #WorldOceansDay. We'll have full coverage here at @UN_News_Centre, plus lots of special interviews and features in the run up to UN Ocean Conference in #Lisbon later this month. pic.twitter.com/0qogKvLaHX
— UN News (@UN_News_Centre) June 7, 2022
Ambassador Ana Paula Zacarias, Permanent Representative of Portugal to the United Nations, and Ambassador Martin Kimani, Kenya’s Permanent Representative to the UN, share a passion for the ocean and the mission ensure the conservation and sustainable use of the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development for all.
Before heading to Portugal, they sat down with UN News in New York, to speak at length about the Conference and what the event – and its outcome – means for their countries and the world.
This interview has been edited for length and clarity.
UN News: What does the UN Ocean Conference represent for both Kenya and Portugal – and what are the main expectations for it?
Ana Paula Zacarias: This is a fundamental conference for Portugal. The ocean is overly connected with our history, with our culture, with our physical landscape, with our economy. There is also a connection with our commitment to strengthening multilateralism and to advance on the Ocean agenda, as well as on the questions concerning climate change.
We hope to have around 12,000 participants from all over the world. And we have already received the confirmation of 15 Heads of State and Government, as well as many non-governmental organizations, civil society participants, people from academia, from youth organizations, and from local communities. Even some celebrities – [US Special Envoy for Climate] John Kerry, and the famous Aquaman, [actor and environmentalist] Jason Momoa, will be in Lisbon, which is particularly important to give strength to the youth’s voice.
Martin Kimani: The Conference indeed represents an important opportunity and responsibility. An opportunity for sustainable economic development, improved food security, and jobs for young people all over the world. And responsibility because we must ensure that oceans are protected from pollution and the effects of climate change. As co-hosts, Kenya and Portugal are keen for a bold and positive global ocean agenda to emerge from the conference.
There is an increasing recognition that we must reverse the decline in ocean health and achieve Sustainable Development Goal 14. To build on this, Kenya, and Portugal, together with the United Nations, are setting a stage for decisions that will scale up ocean action based on science and innovation.

How can we ensure that we protect coastal communities and their livelihoods?
Martin Kimani: Kenya’s coastline is endowed with rich natural resources which include mangrove forests, coral reefs, terrestrial forests, sandy beaches, and seagrass beds. These generate high biodiversity and productive waters which in turn support economies and livelihoods.
Working closely with coastal communities, the Government has prioritized enhancing the welfare of coastline communities in terms of economic opportunities, social protection, ensuring resilience to natural disasters and impact of climate change, and reducing the risk of over exploitation and risky methods of use of ocean resources.
For instance, the Mikoko Pamoja project which means ‘mangroves together’ in Kiswahili is a community-based blue carbon credit project in Kwale County on Kenya’s South Coast. With technical support from the Kenya Marine and Fisheries Research Institute (KMFRI) and other partners, the coastal communities work to replant, manage and restore degraded mangroves, which have been proved to fight climate change through capture and storage of carbon.
Mikoko Pamoja has been trading in mangrove carbon credits since 2013. Revenue generated is used to support community projects in water and sanitation, education, and environmental conservation.
In real terms, this means the local people have been empowered to make democratic spending and investment decisions such as purchase of new schoolbooks, furniture, and provision of water points. At least 73 per cent of the six thousand residents in Gazi and Makongeni villages rely on water points provided by the project.
And this innovative carbon offset project is now being replicated and expanded in neighboring mangroves of Vanga in Kwale County, and other mangrove areas in Africa.
Ana Paula Zacarias: That [project] highlights a fundamental question at the centre of this Conference. We need to show and prove with data that there is a connection between oceans and climate, especially because both elements are fundamental for what we want to achieve with the local communities, who often feel threatened by the combined situation of climate change and the raise of the water. Their involvement in finding solutions is essential.
And those solutions must be sustainable and need to consider their livelihoods. We need to establish a strong dialogue with stakeholders but also with local and regional governments, because they also have a say in what we can do. That’s why we are organizing a special event during the conference. That event, Localizing Action for the Ocean: Local and Regional Governments focuses on how we can interact with the local communities, bring their knowledge to the table and discuss with them ways of becoming more sustainable, having more sustainable fisheries, and more sustainable coastal tourism.
UNCTADCoastal and marine ecosystems provide food, livelihoods, and coastal protection to more than a billion people worldwide.UN News: How are your countries working towards a blue economy, and how will the Conference contribute to that goal?
Ana Paula Zacarias: The oceans are fundamental for life on earth, they are providers of food, but also of so many other important elements of our life. We can use the oceans for enjoyment, for tourism, for sport, for maritime transport, and there are so many ways in which the oceans are providers of sustainability for the life of communities.
I really hope this Conference will boost this. We will hold an interactive dialogue on sustainable blue economy – when we talk about sustainable blue economy, we have to think about fisheries, biodiversity, as well as all the richness that is on the bottom of the sea.
The ocean provides a huge richness that we can all profit from, but we need to be very careful, very careful not to interfere with the delicate ecosystems. We need to consider the issues of pollution and make sure that we receive with open hands all that richness, and at the same time we deliver all the care that the oceans need.
Martin Kimani: Kenya has prioritized the sustainable use of ocean and blue economy resources as an enabler of our Vision 2030. [Kenya is] an emerging economic frontier, and the blue economy is expected to contribute to our economic development through food and nutrition security, coastal and rural development and income earnings along aqua value chains, maritime transport, and tourism.
Besides the national efforts, Kenya remains a willing partner in the regional and international community to develop a common position on how to tackle ocean related threats and challenges. Two-thirds of the global waters lie in Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction of Exclusive Economic Zones [EEZ]. This necessitates, of course, all of us working together for coordinated knowledge and data sharing and development financing.
ICS/Craig NisbetThe Seychelles moved in March 2020 to protect 30 per cent of its marine environment.UN News: The role of youth will be central in Lisbon, with young entrepreneurs, working on innovative, science-based solutions to critical problems, an important part of the dialogue. How do you see the youth participation and involvement in saving our ocean?
Martin Kimani: Recognizing the role of youth, we will also be organizing the Ocean Youth Forum, a special event on the margins of the Conference that will provide a platform for ocean-action and implementing youth-led solutions at scale to address SDG14. We must provide space for youth to participate and contribute to the rapidly growing blue economy sector.
Unemployment, particularly along Kenya’s coast, predisposes the youth to crime, drugs, and radicalization into violent extremism conducive to terrorism.
Beach Management Units (BMUs), which work at the community level recruiting youth with formal and informal education backgrounds, provide them with conservation training and create modest social enterprise opportunities and steady incomes in aquaculture.
The Kenya Government has also committed to educating and motivating the youth in the maritime domain to enhance commercial benefits of the ocean resources.
Ana Paula Zacarias: We have seen the relevance of youth participation in all that pertains to climate action. I think the young generation has a very clear understanding of the challenge that this represents for their life, for their future and for the life of their children.
So, it is absolutely fundamental to involve young people also in the conversation about the sustainable use of oceans. And as Ambassador Kimani mentioned, the Youth Forum will be used as an innovation forum, where we aim to bring all the young people from different areas of knowledge and action and give them the capacity to think in an innovative way about the oceans and their relevance.
It is really very important [to have] young entrepreneurs and young climate and ocean activists. They can bring a huge contribution to this agenda. So, we hope that by their involvement in this forum they can bring solutions that can be used not only by governments, but at the UN level as well.
UN Photo/Mark GartenAmbassadors Martin Kimani of Kenya and Ana Paula Zacarias of Portugal, co-hosts of the UN Ocean Conference in Lisbon.UN News: This year’s Conference will also determine the level of ambition for the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development. What are the next steps, to ensure that we continue working towards a healthy ocean, after Lisbon?
Martin Kimani: The science tells us that the oceans are critical for the future of humanity and that human activities are the greatest threat to the wellbeing of the ocean. We continue to put the ocean systems under immense stress which compromises the vast opportunities and potential of the ocean resources we often refer to.
Nations need to commit to an urgent global mechanism and a time-bound implementation framework that is backed by scientific evidence that would compel countries to strike the balance between conservation and exploitation holding them accountable for their actions.
We also need investments in science research that contributes to global food and nutrition security, maritime spatial planning, and climate change management.
As I have said, the Ocean Conference will gauge our level of ambition to deliver transformative change. The world badly needs good news to offer hope to populations groaning under the burdens of a pandemic, wars, and the effects of climate change. They must see our meeting in Lisbon as a torch lighting the way to effective and impactful multilateral action. We will do our utmost, as Kenya, to ensure that this happens.
Ana Paula Zacarias: This is indeed, for us and for our friends of Kenya, a major endeavor as we host this Conference. At a time when the tide is rising, as we are often reminded, this is the moment to discuss the oceans and to discuss all these elements in the context of climate, sustainable development, migration, and security.
For example, when we look at the situation in several Pacific Islands, we see the difficulties that people face, and the possibilities of increasing conflict due to the challenges they face, having less resources.
This Conference is the second big event that has been organized on this matter, and we hope that at least there will be another one, and a third conference should be organized in the context of the UN Decade of Ocean Science.
Moreover, in the framework of the climate change biodiversity negotiations, both the [UN climate conference] and the Biodiversity Convention will have meetings now, so we need to bring all these elements together and be able to continue working not in silos but in a holistic manner, so that all these agendas can work at the same time. This is fundamental if we want to have a better world, a safer world, a more sustainable world for future generations.

Six members of the Haitian Special Olympics soccer contingent are missing, Florida authorities say
Amir Vera, Jamiel Lynch and Chenelle Woody, CNN
National
Published at
(CNN) — Six members of a Haitian Special Olympics contingent are missing, according to a news release from the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office.
The sheriff’s office sent out a bulletin looking for Antione Mithon, Nicholson Fontilus, Peter Berlus, Anderson Petit-Frere, Steevenson Jacquet and Oriol Jean. The missing individuals are all men between the ages of 18 and 32 who were in the US for “a soccer competition,” the bulletin said.
The group was participating in the 2022 Special Olympics USA Games in Orlando, which began Sunday and run through June 12.
“The individuals are all adults, five of whom are not Special Olympics athletes and one who is an adult with intellectual disability,” the Special Olympics said in a statement to CNN. “The well-being of these delegates is our foremost concern. Local authorities have indicated they have no reason to believe the health and safety of any of the individuals is at risk. To expand the reach and effectiveness of law enforcement’s efforts to locate these individuals, they have been reported as missing persons.”
The six went missing in Kissimmee — just south of Orlando — and were last seen Monday afternoon around 2:30 p.m., the bulletin said.
They all turned in their room keys and left behind their personal bags and belongings, the release said. The reason they left the games is unknown, the statement noted. Foul play is not suspected, according to the sheriff’s office.
“We are in communication with Walt Disney World, Special Olympics and our Law Enforcement and Federal partners,” the sheriff’s office release said. | https://www.eastidahonews.com/2022/06/six-members-of-the-haitian-special-olympics-soccer-contingent-are-missing-florida-authorities-say/ | 2022-06-08T04:08:34Z | https://www.eastidahonews.com/2022/06/six-members-of-the-haitian-special-olympics-soccer-contingent-are-missing-florida-authorities-say/ | true | 7 |
Half of GPs plan on retiring before they are 60 or when they hit that age, a poll suggests.
A survey of more than 800 GPs for Pulse magazine found around 47% intend to retire at or before 60.
Of these, 11% said they intended to retire aged 50 to 55, with only 14% intending to retire aged 66 or over.
Those responding to the survey gave a number of reasons why they wanted to leave the profession, with the most common being burnout and workload, although issues with pensions were also a significant reason.
Doctors have been in dispute with the Government for several years over tax rules relating to GP pensions.
Most recently, rules around tax-free annual allowance (AA) charges mean doctors are potentially going to be charged on “a benefit they will never actually receive”, according to the British Medical Association (BMA).
Pulse said its survey suggests there is a greater appetite for retiring early than in its previous polls.
Warrington GP partner Dr Martin Whitenburgh, who aims to retire at 50 to 55 years old, told Pulse: “The sooner I leave this mess the better. I don’t recognise the job anymore and wouldn’t recommend it to anyone pursuing a career in general practice.”
A salaried GP, who wished to remain anonymous, told Pulse they also aim to retire between 50 and 55 as they “cannot sustain the workload”.
They added: “Two of my close friends, both excellent GPs, have left the NHS due to the workload and stress. One has gone to Bupa and the other to an insurance provider.
“It’s all about politics, not funding primary care properly – encouraging the public to think private is the way forward.
“Conscientious doctors are leaving because they can’t/won’t do a bad job for the patients but the current system doesn’t allow them to do their jobs properly.
“Ten-minute GP appointments are no longer fit for purpose.”
Professor Martin Marshall, chairman of the Royal College of GPs, said: “The number of highly trained, experienced GPs planning to leave the profession early is concerning but not altogether unsurprising given the intense workload and workforce pressures GPs and our teams are working under on a daily basis.
“Good work is ongoing to encourage junior doctors to choose general practice, and these efforts have been successful.
“But if more GPs are leaving the profession than entering it, we are fighting a losing battle.
“We need to see just as much effort going into making general practice an attractive and sustainable career for existing GPs, so they can continue delivering frontline patient care in the NHS and mentoring the next generation of family doctors.
“The Government has promised 6,000 more GPs by 2024 but are not on track to deliver this, but they cannot give up on it.”
BMA GP committee workforce policy lead Dr Samira Anane said: “BMA analysis has shown that we now have the equivalent of 1,622 fewer fully qualified full-time GPs than we did in 2015, despite the average number of patients each GP is responsible for having increased by around 300 – or 16% – since then.
“On top of unprecedented workload leading to burnout, complex and punitive pension taxation rules that can leave senior doctors facing eye-watering and unexpected charges if they stay in work longer mean family doctors are not only exhausted and disenchanted, but also absurdly financially punished for continuing to look after their patients.
“As a result, they are reluctantly voting with their feet by reducing hours or deciding to retire early, and the impact on patients cannot be underestimated.”
A Department of Health and Social Care spokesperson said: “We are grateful to GPs for their hard work and we are supporting and growing the workforce – including by investing at least £1.5 billion to deliver an extra 50 million GP appointments a year by 2024.
“There were over 1,400 more doctors working in general practice in March 2022 compared to the same time in 2019 and a record-breaking number started training as GPs last year.”
It comes as a study from Imperial College London found a 41% drop in the contacts children and young people had with GPs during the first Covid lockdown from March to June 2020, compared with previous years.
There was an 88% drop in face-to-face consultations but more than a two-fold increase in phone and video contacts for those aged up to 24.
The study was published in the British Journal of General Practice.

ANAHEIM, Calif. – Los Angeles Angels star Mike Trout was removed from Tuesday night’s game against Boston with left groin tightness.
The three-time MVP grimaced in the third inning while running to first base after hitting a double off Red Sox starter Garrett Whitlock. Trout easily reached second but not at full speed. He tried to stretch out the leg once he got there but came out of the game after talking with trainers.
Trout was injured hours after the Angels fired manager Joe Maddon with the club mired in a 12-game losing streak, one shy of the franchise record. Trout endured a career-worst 0-for-26 drought during that skid but ended the slump with a single Monday night.
Trout hit a two-run homer to center in the first inning Tuesday. It was the first time he had multiple hits in a game since May 28 at home against Toronto. He is batting .284 and is tied for third in the American League with 14 home runs.
Trout missed the final 119 games of last season with a left calf strain.

Researchers say sponges may not be the most hygienic way to clean dishes. Here are some alternatives
Kitchen sponges harbor more bacteria than kitchen brushes, which may be a more hygienic way to clean your dishes, according to researchers in Norway.
"Salmonella and other bacteria grow and survive better in sponges than in brushes, the reason is that sponges in daily use never dry up," said Trond Møretrø, a research scientist at Nofima, a Norwegian food research institute.
"A single sponge can harbor a higher number of bacteria than there are people on Earth," said Møretrø, an author of a new study, which was published online in the Journal of Applied Microbiology.
While many bacteria are not harmful, those that are — like salmonella — can spread from sponges to hands, kitchen surfaces and equipment and potentially make people sick, he said.
"The sponge is humid and accumulates food residues which are also food for bacteria, leading to rapid growth of bacteria."
What surprised the researchers most about their findings was that it didn't really matter how people cleaned their sponges or how often.
"That the way the consumers used their sponges did not matter much regarding growth of bacteria. It is very difficult for consumers to avoid bacterial growth in the sponges as long as the sponges are not replaced daily," Møretrø said.
The research on the used sponges and brushes builds on a lab-based study published last year by the same team of researchers, which found that harmful bacteria survived better in sponges than in brushes.
In the United States, the USDA said that microwaving or boiling kitchen sponges may reduce "some of the bacterial load," however these measures alone are not adequate to ensure your sponge will reduce cross-contamination. It is advised to buy new ones frequently.
The research was part of a European Union-backed project on food safety.
Sponge vs. brush
The researchers collected kitchen sponges from 20 people living in Portugal and 35 brushes and 14 sponges from people living in Norway.
An earlier survey of 9,966 people by the research team found that sponges were commonly used for cleaning in kitchens in the majority of 10 European countries, with brushes the dominant cleaning utensil for washing up in only two countries — Norway and Denmark.
The sponges were all used for washing dishes — scrubbing pots and pans, and 19 of the 20 sponges from Portugal were used five to six times a week or more often. Of the brushes collected in Norway, 32 out of 35 were used five to six times a week or more. The sponges collected in Norway were used less frequently.
No pathogenic bacteria (that causes disease) was found in the brushes or the sponges. However, overall bacteria levels were lower in used brushes than sponges. Similar types of non-pathogenic bacteria were found in the two cleaning utensils.
When the researchers added salmonella bacteria to the brushes and sponges, they found a significant reduction in the salmonella numbers in brushes allowed to dry overnight. But there was no reduction for brushes stored in a plastic bag or for sponges regardless of storing conditions.
The owners of the sponges and brushes shared how long they typically used their sponge or brush and how they kept their cleaning utensils clean — rinsing with water, washing with soap and water, placing them in the dishwasher or bleaching.
However, none of these things made a tangible difference — something that surprised the researchers. The key takeaway from the study was that brushes, which dry between use, have lower numbers of bacteria.
"Since the brush dries very fast, harmful bacteria will die. Also, most brushes have a handle which prevents you from direct hand contact with potential harmful bacteria, in contrast to sponges," he said.
"I encourage consumers to try a brush instead the next time they need to replace their sponge."
What to do
While study authors recommended the bristles of a brush over the squish of a sponge, Cath Rees, a professor of microbiology at the University of Nottingham who wasn't involved in the research, she said would continue using a sponge to wash dishes. For her, the key takeaway was that drying dish sponges and cloths between use was a good idea.
"The main message I get is that they did not find any evidence of pathogenic bacteria on the sponges or brushes taken from a range of domestic settings and therefore there is no evidence that these items are a significant source of contamination in normal domestic settings," Rees said.
"If there were some low levels of pathogens left on your cloth, they are going to grow quite slowly (they grow optimally at body temperatures), so you would not expect to see much growth of these, and this matched their results — in wet condition there was some limited growth, in drying conditions the numbers either stayed the same or declined," she explained.
Markus Egert, a microbiologist at Furtwangen University in Germany who has conducted similar research, said he already used brushes to wash up his dishes, which he cleaned in the dishwasher. If people preferred a sponge, Egert, who was not involved in this study, recommended using a new one every two to three weeks.
"Brushes are the better choice to clean dishes, from an hygienic point of view. This might have been anticipated before, but the authors prove it with some nice experiments. However, based on my experience people love using sponges." | https://www.kcra.com/article/sponges-not-most-hygienic-way-to-clean-dishes-alternatives/40218451 | 2022-06-08T04:12:52Z | https://www.kcra.com/article/sponges-not-most-hygienic-way-to-clean-dishes-alternatives/40218451 | true | 31 |

Smog advisory issued for parts of SoCal due to expected heatwave
The South Coast Air Quality Management District issued a smog advisory Tuesday due to an upcoming heatwave.
The advisory will be in effect from Wednesday, June 8 through Sunday, June 12 due to the heat wave forecasted by the National Weather Service.
Smog levels are likely to reach unhealthy or higher levels in the Santa Clarita Valley, the San Fernando Valley, the San Gabriel Mountains, the San Gabriel Valley, the Inland Empire, the San Bernardino Mountains and the Coachella Valley.
Smog can cause respiratory health problems, including trouble breathing, asthma attacks and lung damage. Research also indicates that ozone exposure can increase the risk of premature death.
Children, older adults and people with asthma or COPD may be more sensitive to the health effects of smog.

Right-back had been a problem position for Manchester United in the past. With the addition of Aaron Wan Bissaka in the 2019-20 season, it seemed that the former Crystal Palace defender would make the position his own. But it has not been smooth sailing for the 24-year-old and now there have been reports that United are in the market for another right-back, with Denzel Dumfries’ name being bandied about by Italian publications.
Italian outlet Calciomercato have claimed that Inter Milan defender Dumfries is being monitored by United, with Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich also interested.
The Dutch international arrived in Milan last season after impressing during Euro 2020 for the national team. The Serie A club paid PSV Eindhoven £13m for his services and it turned out to be a decent debut season for him in Italy.
The Rotterdam-born wingback played 45 times in all competitions and notched five goals and seven assists while excelling in a more attacking role.
Winning two titles was amazing! We couldn’t deliver the league, but I couldn’t be more proud of this team for fighting till the end. We will always keep up our heads up knowing what an honour it’s to be a nerazzurro! To all the supporters, thanks for the amazing support! 💙🖤 pic.twitter.com/v9DhRC74IR
— Denzel Dumfries (@DenzelJMD2) May 28, 2022
But FFP regulations have meant Inter will need to sell a few of their players in order to keep hold of their star names like Alessandro Bastoni and Lautaro Martinez while the Nerazzurri look to plot a return for Romelu Lukaku to the club.
All this has meant a deal for the defender might be in the offing for around €30 million. New United boss Erik Ten Hag will know about Dumfries from his time in the Eredivisie and his attacking output would be in tune with the Dutch manager’s attacking philosophy.
The former Heerenveen player has been in fine fettle for his country. He has been a regular member of the Dutch national side and has played in his country’s last 22 matches. His penchant for scoring goals was on display in the Dutch team’s 4-1 Nations League triumph over Belgium.
Wan Bissaka is better at the defensive side of things and despite being a regular under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, he ended up losing his place to Diogo Dalot under interim coach Ralf Rangnick.
Both defenders failed to score and assist during the course of last season and the defence as a whole failed miserably in their task. The modern game requires the wing backs to be adept at the attacking side of the game. Dalot has that ability but he remains a work in progress.
There have been reports which state that Ten Hag would rather keep the young Portuguese and the Red Devils are looking to sell United’s No 29.
However, his wage demands and the price United want for his transfer means an outright sale is not looking likely at the moment. The Eagles are looking to reacquire his services but it will most likely be a loan deal.
The likelihood of this deal going through will depend on United’s ability to shift Wan Bissaka from their books. Dumfries will certainly be a much more attacking-minded outlet down the right but other positions continue to be of a higher priority for Ten Hag.

Netflix has officially revealed both the first trailer and the official release date for their upcoming anime adaptation of Kakegurui Twin, the prequel series to the smash hit Kakegurui.
Written by Kakeguri mangaka Homura Kawamoto and illustrated by Kei Saki, Kaekugurui Twins takes place two years before the main series and tells the story of Hyakko Private Academy Mary Saotome prior to arrival of Yumeko Jabami.
Set to be adapted into an anime by Netflix and MAPPA, Kakegurui Twins released its first full trailer on June 5th, giving audiences their first look at the seedy underbelly of the school’s gambling culture.
The trailer begins with Tsuzura Hanatemari (CV Rina Honnizumi, Cure Ange, Hugtto! Precure) introducing the audience to the gambling-based hierarchy system of Hyakkao Private Academy, which determines a student’s standing solely by their respective gambling success.
Gambling is just the natural way of things at Hyakkao Private Academy, to the point where students are even outright encouraged to gamble.
However, if you accumulate too much gambling debt, you’ll go from the sweet life to the bottom-of-the-barrel life of a ‘housepet’ in the blink of an eye.
Viewed by other students as lower than trash – or as seen in the trailer, no better than the trash can itself – housepets are regularly subjected to a level of bullying that far exceeds tghe typical school yard.
Following this explanation, Tsuzura moves to introduce herself, providing a photo of herself having water dumped on her head and being referred to by the name of Mittens – as seen in a circled tag around her neck – by fellow student Auiri Kokoro (CV currently unknown).
Tsuzura then introduces the main character of Kakegurui Twin, Mary Saotome (CV: Minami Tanaka, reprising her role from the core Kakegurui series).
The trailer then jumps to find Mary and Tusuzara, motivated by the former’s belief that the surefire path to winning in gambling is to become a bookmaker, as they prepare to enter into the school’s least popular gambling den in an attempt to earn some extra cash.
“Gain a gambling den and become a financier,” explains Mary. “This is the secret to gambling success. The shortcut to being a winner in this academy.”
Audiences are next introducrted to the sadistric Public Moral Committee Chairwoman Juraku Sarako (CV: Yuko Kaida, Tsukoyo, Gintama), who the girls must negotiate with in order to acquire a den.
In service of this goal, Juraku pits Mary against Literary Club president Yukimi Togakushi (CV: Yo Yaichi, Anzu Yokoyama, Prison School) in a game of three-hit dice.
Whoever wins the game gets the den, but if Mary loses, she will become Juraku’s personal house pet.
A montage of character introductions follows soon after, beginning with Mikura Sado (CV: Aoi Koga, Paimon, Genshin Impact), one of the completely loyal and subservient personal housepets of Juraku, who can be seen acting as the dealer for the dice game:
Proceeded by Beautification President Sakura Miharutaki (CV: Rie Takahashi), who confronts Midari in a dice game over her failure to pay off her debts to the student council – after all, when it doubt, gamble it out:
And finally Aoi Mibuomi (CV, by Seiichiro Yamashita, the former Student Council Treasure whose Full Bloom organization seeks to dethrone Kiari Momobami from the position of Student Council President and ultimately disband the academy’s housepet system:
At the trailer’s close, Netflix reveals that the series will debut exclusively on their platform on August 4th.

OPEC+ words contrast with Saudi action of raising oil prices: Russell
By Clyde Russell
LAUNCESTON, Australia, June 6 (Reuters) - The gap between what is said in crude oil markets and what actually happens in the physical trading world has been illustrated by a commitment by the OPEC+ group to boost output being followed by its top member, Saudi Arabia, raising prices.
Producer group OPEC+ said after meeting last week it would bring forward oil production increases to offset lost Russian output as a result of Western sanctions in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
But while this action would seem an attempt to ensure supply meets demand, and therefore keeps prices from surging even higher, the OPEC+ decision was quickly followed by news that Saudi Arabia will boost its official selling prices for July for its customers in Asia and Europe.
OPEC+ said after its June 2 meeting that the group would lift output by 648,000 barrels per day (bpd) in July - or 0.7% of global demand - and a similar amount in August, up from an initial plan to add 432,000 bpd a month over three months until September.
OPEC+ groups the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and other producers, including Russia, which has seen its output decline by about 1 million bpd since the Feb. 24 attack on Ukraine.
The oil market was largely unimpressed by the OPEC+ promise of higher output, with benchmark Brent crude futures gaining 1.8% on June 3 to close at $119.72 a barrel.
Brent is now about 24% higher than it was the day before Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and given the European Union's decision to end about 90% of its imports from Russia, the pressure remains for further gains.
The problem for oil markets is that the credibility of OPEC+ is becoming severely strained, given the group's inability to produce as much crude as it says it is going to.
The OPEC part of the group produced 24.72 million bpd in May, meaning their output was about 858,000 bpd below the target agreed by the wider OPEC+ collective.
Add in Russia's declining output and exports, and it's clear that actual supply is falling well short of what OPEC+ has pledged.
This failure to meet targets is gaining increasing attention in a market fretting over whether Russia will be able to switch its customers and maintain export volumes, or whether the global market is going to tighten further as Russian volumes decline.
The OPEC+ decision to say it would boost output may be viewed as an attempt to calm the market over supply worries, and thus try to ensure that prices don't spike to levels that would lead to a global economic slowdown and its related demand destruction.
SAUDI PRICE BOOST
It is perhaps curious that Saudi Aramco, the kingdom's state-controlled oil producer, chose to increase its official selling prices (OSPs) for refiners in its top destinations of Asia and Europe for July-loading cargoes.
Aramco raised the OSP of its benchmark Arab Light grade for Asia to a premium of $6.50 a barrel over the Oman/Dubai regional benchmark, up $2.10 from $4.40 for June and above the increase of $1-$1.50 expected by Asian refiners surveyed ahead of the announcement.
The OSP for customers in northwest Europe for Arab Light was lifted to $4.30 a barrel over Brent for July, up $2.20 for June-loading cargoes.
An increase in the OSPs for Asia was always on the cards given the recent surge in refining margins, and also the increase in the premium of Brent crude over the Dubai equivalent.
A typical refinery in Singapore processing Dubai crude is enjoying a margin of about $25.19 a barrel, or more than three times the 365-day moving average of $8.11.
This is a reflection of strong demand, especially for diesel, and the sharp decline in exports of refined fuels from China this year, as well as from Russia, which has tightened product markets.
While it is logical for Aramco to raise prices to capture for itself some of the high refining margins, it is seemingly at odds with the OPEC+ idea of ensuring markets are well supplied at a price that doesn't damage the demand outlook.

MasterChef contestant Steph Woon was sadly eliminated from the competition following a challenging pressure test that saw her tasked with recreating an Andreas Papadakis dish in the kitchen. And while this didn’t work out so well for her, the MasterChef cook has certainly shown she is a culinary pro. And after departing the competition, Woon shared her favourite quick and easy recipe for Lifehacker’s MasterChef at Home: apple crumble.
Here’s how to make the dessert from scratch.
MasterChef at Home: Steph Woon’s apple crumble recipe
Woon described this recipe as “an easy dessert to prepare and serve on a cold winter day! There’s just something comforting about eating an apple crumble with ice cream under a pile of blankets by a fireplace”. Can’t argue with that.
What you’ll need for the apple crumble recipe:
Apple filling
- 4 apples (whatever apples you have at home – I like to use Gala apples but Modi apples or granny smith work too!)
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice, optional (verjuice or apple cider for some acid to help
- 3 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp cornstarch
- ¼ tsp ground ginger
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Crumble topping
- ½ cup rolled oats
- ½ cup plain flour
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- 50g unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ cup almond flakes, optional
- ½ tsp vanilla essence, optional
- Pinch of salt
Directions for apple crumble recipe:
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees.
- Peel and cut apples into roughly 1cm cubes and reserve in a bowl.
- Add the rest of the apple filling ingredients into the bowl and mix together.
- Transfer the apple filling into your choice of oven-safe dish, e.g. 6 ramekins or 1 large tray.
- In the bowl that had the apple mixture in it (because who wants to do extra washing), put all the crumble ingredients together.
- Mix crumble ingredients until combined – it should look like a dry dough.
- Spread the crumble on top of the apple filling and bake for 30 minutes. You can tell it’s done when the crumble goes golden and the apple mixture is bubbling underneath.
Hot tip: make a double batch so that you have leftovers! Keep your leftovers in the fridge and mix them with some yoghurt or cooked oats for breakfast the next morning.

Major Republican donors, including some that have contributed to Gov. Greg Abbott's campaigns, joined other conservative Texans in signing an open letter supporting congressional action to increase gun restrictions in response to the mass shooting in Uvalde that left 19 children and two teachers dead last week.
The letter, which is expected to run as a full-page ad in the Dallas Morning News on Sunday, endorses the creation of "red flag" laws, expanding background checks and raising the age to purchase a gun to 21. More than 250 self-declared gun enthusiasts signed it.
"Most law enforcement experts believe these measures would make a difference," the letter reads. "And recent polls of fellow conservatives suggest that there is strong support for such gun-safety measures."
The letter voices support for Texas' senior senator, John Cornyn, who has been tapped to lead bipartisan negotiations in Congress over possible gun reform measures.
"We are grateful that our Senator John Cornyn is leading efforts to address the recent tragedies in Uvalde and elsewhere across our great Country," the letter says. "He's the right man to lead this bipartisan effort, as he has demonstrated throughout his career."
In an interview with Politico, Cornyn stressed that he was not interested in "restricting the rights of law-abiding citizens under the Second Amendment," but said it would be "embarrassing" if Uvalde didn't spark Congress to reach some sort of bipartisan legislative response.
The letter was paid for by Todd Maclin, a former senior executive at J.P. Morgan Chase who now runs the Dallas-based finance firm Maclin Management. Maclin said he is a conservative gun owner who has been stirred to action by the shooting in Uvalde.
"These events have really motivated me and really gotten under my skin and encouraged me to support the effort that's underway," Maclin told The Texas Tribune. "I just felt like I needed to do something, and I also believe that there are reasonable things that can be done."
He said he is still hearing from more conservative gun owners who are feeling a "great sense of urgency and a great need to support [Cornyn] as he does his best to address these issues."
Maclin said the group is focusing on federal legislation, which he believes is the best avenue to passing gun safety laws and ensuring they are applied uniformly across the country. He declined to comment on the state response to the shooting or gun legislation, except to say that he hopes any federal plan led by Cornyn and passed with conservative support would be embraced by state governments.
Among the signatories are deep-pocketed Abbott supporters, including billionaires Robert Rowling, whose holding company owns Omni Hotels, and Ray L. Hunt, executive chair of Hunt Consolidated Inc.
The contents of the letter are in line with policies Abbott and other party leaders, including Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, have supported in the past — though not the ones they are endorsing now.
After the 2018 school shooting in Santa Fe, outside Houston, Abbott supported "red flag" laws, which would allow local officials to take someone's guns away if a judge declares them to be a danger. He later dropped his support for the measure, citing a "coalescence" against it from his own party.
The next year, after back-to-back mass shootings in El Paso and Midland-Odessa, Patrick said he was "willing to take an arrow" from the National Rifle Association and support expanding background checks.
The next time the Legislature met, however, lawmakers instead passed a law that allows Texans to carry a handgun without a license or training.
This time, neither Patrick nor Abbott have expressed any support for tightening gun laws. They have instead offered suggestions that have ranged from expanding mental health services and minimizing the entrances to school buildings to doing surprise security checks.
On the federal level, both Cornyn and Sen. Ted Cruz have A+ ratings from the NRA and are top Senate recipients of gun industry donations. But they've taken differing tacks in response to the shooting in Uvalde.
Cruz said in the wake of the massacre that passing laws that restrict gun access "doesn't work. It's not effective. It doesn't prevent crime." But Cornyn has shown a willingness, now and in the past, to support some bipartisan gun legislation.
In the wake of the 2017 Sutherland Springs shooting outside San Antonio, Cornyn worked with Democratic colleagues to improve the background check system to prevent felons and domestic abusers from purchasing firearms.
He has also supported banning "bump stocks," which allow semi-automatic guns to fire faster, and shepherded into law a bill that funded the screening and treatment of offenders with mental illness.
After last week's shooting, Cornyn has said he's "not interested in making a political statement," but is focused on making "the terrible events that occurred in Uvalde less likely in the future."

Prince Louis provided plenty of entertainment during his great-grandmother’s platinum jubilee festivities this weekend.
The Queen celebrated 70 years on the throne with a four-day spectacle of events, including the Trooping the Colour ceremony, a Service of Thanksgiving at St Paul’s Cathedral, a Party at the Palace organised by the BBC and a Platinum Jubilee Pageant on Sunday.
The monarch thrilled fans with two appearances on the balcony of Buckingham Palace during the weekend.
She was accompanied by other members of the royal family on both occasions, including the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their children.
While four-year-old Louis was only seen on two occasions over the bank holiday, he delivered plenty of meme-worthy content.
Abandoning all royal protocol, Louis screamed into the air while standing next to the Queen on balcony of Buckingham Palace on Thursday, and later pulled faces at his mother during the Platinum Jubilee Pageant on Sunday.
We also saw Louis enthusiastically wave at spectators as he took part in the Trooping the Colour procession for the first time.
Numerous photographs and videos of Louis’ antics went viral on social media over the weekend.
Here’s Prince Louis’ most enjoyable moments from this weekend.
Louis enjoys waving at the crowds
Prince George, eight, Princess Charlotte, seven, and Louis joined the royal procession in the Trooping the Colour parade for the first time this year.
The siblings sat in a carriage with their mother, Kate Middleton and the Duchess of Cornwall.
Prince Louis seemed particularly excited by the event, enthusiastically waving his hands at spectators and continuing even after his siblings stopped.
Noticing Louis’ waves, Princess Charlotte was seen gently moving her younger brother’s hand down.
But her instructions went ignored, and Louis continued waving at people on The Mall.
The act was caught on video and quickly went viral.
One person wrote on Twitter: “Prince Louis deploying some Olympic level waving. Being stopped by Princess Charlotte and then immediately starting again irregardless is now the high point of the whole thing.”
Given his eagerness on Thursday, it came as little surprise that Louis was keen to take part in waving at crowds again on Sunday.
For the finale of the Platinum Jubilee Pageant, he joined his siblings, his parents, the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall and the Queen on the balcony of Buckingham Palace.
At one point, the energetic young royal was seen waving with both hands.
Louis screams on the balcony of Buckingham Palace
Louis’ first appearance of the weekend was on the balcony of Buckingham Palace on Thursday alongside the Queen and other members of the royal family.
Standing next to the monarch to watch the Royal Air Force’s flypast, Louis delighted onlookers as he pulled several animated faces, covered his ears and screamed into the air.
Kate was seen behind him, smiling and struggling to contain her laughter.
Louis entertains crowds at Platinum Jubilee Pageant
Shortly after arriving at the Platinum Jubilee Pageant on Sunday, Louis was spotted picking up the cushion from his chair, and attempting to pass it off to his siblings and parents.
The prince also appeared bored of the pageantry at one point, sinking down into his seat and covering his face. He was later photographed intently reading the pageant programme.
Louis soon got into the festival spirit, and was seen dancing along to the music and cheering on peformers from his seat.
The four-year-old was also pulling faces at the Duchess of Cambridge and covering her mouth.
Later he was sitting on the laps of both the Duke of Cambridge and the Prince of Wales.
Cameras also captured several sweet interactions between Louis and Kate, as he cuddled up to his mother, kissed her cheek and rested his head on her shoulder.

Tokyo, Jun 8 (AP) The Japanese economy contracted in the first quarter, but at a slower pace than earlier estimated, the government said Wednesday.
The world's third-largest economy contracted at an annual rate of 0.5 per cent, according to Cabinet Office data. That was smaller than the 1.0 per cent contraction in the preliminary estimate for Japan's real gross domestic product, or GDP, released in May.

The annual rate shows how the economy would have grown if the quarterly rate were to continue for a year. Japan's economy contracted 0.1 per cent in January-March from the previous quarter, better than the 0.2 per cent quarter-on-quarter contraction in the preliminary data.
Consumer spending and other private demand was stronger than previously thought.

The upward revision was a pleasant surprise for analysts.
“Looking ahead, we expect GDP to rebound in 2Q mainly due to better private consumption, yet higher inflation on commodities will likely limit the gains in real terms,” Robert Carnell, regional head of research Asia-Pacific at ING, said in a report.
The expected reopening of the country to tourists as limits imposed to curb COVID-19 infections are lifted, should also boost growth.
On the negative side, Japan, which imports almost all its oil, much of its food and various products, has been slammed by rising prices for energy and other commodities, partly because of the war in Ukraine.
Japan has for years been fending off deflation, or a spiraling down of prices. Low wage growth and an aging and shrinking population have slowed economic activity and discouraged corporate investment.
Bank of Japan Gov. Haruhiko Kuroda apologized Tuesday for recently referring to a “tolerance for higher prices” among Japanese people, a comment interpreted as welcoming higher prices. Kuroda was grilled in parliament, where he told legislators his comment was inappropriate.
Kuroda has championed a policy aimed at boosting near-zero inflation to around 2 per cent, but progress was slow until global prices for oil and other commodities surged in recent months.
Some analysts say Japan has gradually lost its competitive edge because it hasn't done enough to nurture innovation and free up new sources of growth bridled by old-time bureaucracies.
One source of worry is the diving value of the yen, now trading at a 20-year low of about 133 yen to the US dollar.
Although a weak currency is a boon for Japanese exporters, boosting the value of overseas earnings, analysts say the weak yen also reflects a weak economy. Rising interest rates in the US and other countries compared to Japan, where interest rates are at near zero, will likely keep the yen weak for some time.
Prime Minister Fumio Kishida is pushing what he calls “new capitalism.” He announced an outline of his strategy this week, aimed at jump-starting growth by pushing digitization, defense spending, start-up ventures and sustainable energy. He has also invited investments, declaring in English, “Invest in Kishida.”
Former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, Japan's longest serving leader, pushed “Abenomics,” focused on super-easy lending that was meant to spark inflation and therefore promote growth. Some critics say Abenomics failed to build a strong economy and its pitfalls are part of the reason now behind the weak yen.(AP)

It's hard to empathize with someone who carries out a school shooting. The brutality of their crimes is unspeakable. Whether the shootings were in Uvalde, Columbine, or Parkland, they have traumatized students and communities across the U.S.
Psychologist John Van Dreal understands that. "Someone went out of their way to target and kill children who look like our children, teachers who look like our teachers — and did it for no other reason than to hurt them," says Van Dreal. "And that's very personal."
Van Dreal is the director of safety and risk management at Salem-Keizer Public Schools in Oregon, a state that has had its share of school shootings. In 2014, about 60 miles from Salem, where Van Dreal is based, a 15-year-old boy shot one student and a teacher at his high school before killing himself.
But even though it's hard, psychologists like Van Dreal and law enforcement agents as well spend a lot of time thinking about what it's like to be one of these school shooters. Understanding who the shooters are, they say, is key to prevention.
How many school shootings?
To gain insights, the interested parties look to the past.
Tallying up all shootings and instances of school violence is difficult, researchers say; there's no official count, and various organizations differ in their definitions of school shootings.
For example, an open source database put together by Mother Jones suggests there have been 12 mass shootings (where four or more people died) in schools since the Columbine High School shooting in Colorado in 1999, and 134 children and adults died in those attacks.
Psychologists and law enforcement agencies have been analyzing how these sorts of multivictim attacks came to be, because of what they tell us about many other people who are at risk of becoming violent in schools and the ways we might intervene early, before anger becomes violence.
In the two decades since the Columbine High School shooting, researchers have learned a lot about school shooters. For one thing, many are themselves students, or former students, at the schools they attack. A significant majority tend to be teenagers or young adults.
"There's no one thing, [but] maybe a couple of dozen different things that come together to put someone on the path to committing an act of mass violence," says Peter Langman, a clinical psychologist in Allentown, Pa., and the author of two books and several studies about school shootings.
Multiple factors contribute in each case
Most shooters in these cases had led difficult lives, the studies find.
"Adolescent school shooters, there's no question that they're struggling and there have been multiple failures in their lives," says Reid Meloy, a forensic psychologist who has consulted with the FBI.
Many struggle with psychological problems, Meloy says.
"We know that mental health issues are very much in the mix," he says. "The child might be just, you know, very depressed. We also found in one of our early studies that you've got this curious combination of both depression and paranoia."
Studies by the FBI and the U.S. Secret Service have also found that many of the shooters were feeling desperate before the event.
"Whether or not they've been diagnosed, or whether or not they're severely mentally ill, something is going on that could [have been] addressed through some kind of treatment," says Langman.
But most never got that treatment.
The role of mental health problems
Mental health issues don't cause school shootings, Van Dreal emphasizes. After all, only a tiny, tiny percentage of kids with psychological issues go on to become school shooters.
But mental health problems are a risk factor, he says, because they can decrease one's ability to cope with other stresses. And studies have shown that most school shooters have led particularly stressful lives.
Many, though not all, of the perpetrators have experienced childhood traumas such as physical or emotional abuse, and unstable families, with violent, absent or alcoholic parents or siblings, for example. And most have experienced significant losses.
For example, the defendant in the case of the Parkland, Fla., shooting in 2018 had lost his adoptive mother to complications from the flu just a couple of months before the school attack. His adoptive father had died when he was a little boy.
Feeling like an outcast at school may also play a role. Initial media reports suggest that the perpetrator in Uvalde had been bullied and harassed at school for years for a speech impediment.
"A lot of these people have felt excluded, socially left out or rejected," says Van Dreal. Studies show that social rejection at school is associated with higher levels of anxiety, depression, aggression and antisocial behavior in children.
A 2004 study by the U.S. Secret Service and U.S. Department of Education found that nearly three-quarters of school shooters had been bullied or harassed at school.
Marginalized kids don't have anchors at school, says Van Dreal. "They don't have any adult connection — no one watching out for them. Or no one knows who they are anymore."
And the absence of social support at the school, Meloy says, is a big risk factor.
"People who do these kinds of targeted attacks don't feel very good about themselves or where they're headed in their lives," says Van Dreal. "They may wish someone would kill them. Or they may wish they could kill themselves."
For example, Dylan Klebold, one of the perpetrators of the Columbine shooting, had been depressed and suicidal two years prior.
"About half of the school shooters I've studied have died by suicide in their attack," says Langman. "It's often a mix of severe depression and anguish and desperation driving them to end their own lives."
Of course, most people who feel suicidal don't kill others.
So what makes a small minority of kids who have mental health issues and thoughts of suicide turn to violence and homicide?
Meloy and Van Dreal think it's because these individuals had been struggling alone — either because they were unable to ask for help or their cries went unheard when the adults in their lives didn't realize the child needed support.
When despair turns to anger and a desire for revenge
When someone has been struggling alone for a while and failing, their despair can turn into anger, the researchers say.
"There's loss. There's humiliation. There's anger. There's blame," says Meloy.
That sort of anger can lead to homicidal thoughts, Van Dreal says.
They start out fantasizing about revenge, says Meloy.
"So the fantasy is one where the teenager starts to identify with other individuals who have become school shooters and have used violence," he says.
These days, Meloy adds, it's easy for a troubled kid to go online and research how previous shooters planned and executed their attacks.
Easy access to guns — one of the biggest risk factors — then turns these fantasies into reality.
Psychologists say these attacks can be prevented — they are often weeks or months in the planning.
The keys to prevention are to spot the earliest behavioral signs that a student is struggling, Langman says, and also to watch for signs that someone may be veering toward violence.
Some signs can seem obvious in hindsight. "So, I've stopped being the kid who went to Boy Scouts, and church and loved his grandmother," Van Dreal says, "and now I want to be that kid with camouflage who's isolated and attacks people and hurts them."
But sometimes, even professionals who see the signs miss their significance.
About a year and a half before he attacked students at Columbine High School, Dylan Klebold, who was a gifted student, started to get into trouble.
He and some friends hacked into his school's computer system. Then, a couple of months later, he and his friend Eric Harris broke into a van and stole some equipment. They were arrested at that point and sent to a diversion program — an alternative to jail for first-time juvenile offenders — that offered counseling and required community service.
Sue Klebold, Dylan's mother and subsequent author of the book A Mother's Reckoning: Living in the Aftermath of Tragedy, told NPR she was upset and concerned to see the sudden change in her son's behavior. She says she asked the diversion counselor if his behavior meant something and whether he needed a therapist. The counselor asked Dylan if he wanted therapy and Dylan said no.
Sue Klebold says she never realized how deep the problem was.
"The piece that I think I failed [in] is, we tend to underestimate the level of pain that someone may be in," Klebold told NPR. "We all have a responsibility to stop and think — someone we love may be suffering, may be in a crisis."
Beware pitfalls in the search for a solution
The solution, according to psychologists who study kids who become violent, isn't to expel or suspend a student like Dylan — though that is what happened to him in the fall of 1997 after he hacked into his school's computer system.
A student like that who's expelled "can now be bored, can be isolated at home, can be living in a dysfunctional family and can be ruminating and thinking all the time about how he's going to avenge what has happened to him," says Meloy.
Eric Harris, who was Dylan Klebold's friend and fellow killer that day at Columbine, didn't seem depressed. But he was self-absorbed, lacked empathy and was prone to angry outbursts, according to those who analyzed his journals and earlier behavior.
While Klebold's journals were "full of loneliness and depression," Langman says, the writings of Harris were "full of narcissism and rage and rants against people — a lot of contempt."
Harris' contempt extended to himself. Significant surgeries during his early teen years to correct a birth condition contributed to self-loathing, Langman's study of Harris' journal suggests.
"I have always hated how I looked," Harris wrote in his journal. "That's where a lot of my hate grows from." In his last journal entry, Harris refers to himself as "the weird looking Eric KID."
"Anyone contemplating getting a gun and killing people needs to be seen as a person in crisis," says Langman.
Time and time again, psychologists and educators have found that surrounding a young person with the right kind of support and supervision early on can turn most away from violence.
Connecting with these students, listening to them and supporting them, getting them the help they need, these researchers say, can help prevent future attacks and make schools a safer place for all children.

Basic Could Be Beautiful When Biotech Bounces Back
Biotechnology stocks and exchange traded funds are into a second year of disappointing investors, but that condition won’t be permanent.
With that in mind, investors evaluating ideas for a biotech resurgence may want to consider basic offerings, including the VanEck Vectors Biotech ETF (BBH). BBH follows the MVIS US Listed Biotech 25 Index and is home to 25 stocks.
“The obscurity of biotech companies is partially explained by many of these having distribution agreements with the large pharmaceutical companies, which puts their own brands into the background. Furthermore, the biotech sector acts as an incubator for the pharmaceutical industry where startups with attractive drugs in development are often acquired, thus ceasing to exist as publicly traded stock,” noted Nicolas Rabener of Factor Research.
With a lineup of 25 stocks, BBH mostly dodges obscure fare. In the current environment for biotech stocks, that’s a positive because it’s smaller companies with a small amount of drugs -- in some cases just one -- in clinical trials. Many of those firms aren’t close to being profitable, and markets treat the shares as highly speculative.
While large-cap biotech equities aren’t immune to the industry’s bear market, those companies, including plenty of BBH member firms, aren’t obscure. More important than familiarity, the large-cap biotech space is littered with profitable, cash-generating firms. Those include Dow component Amgen (NASDAQ:AMGN), Gilead Sciences (NASDAQ:GILD), and Biogen (NASDAQ:BIIB), among others. That trio combines for about 27% of BBH’s roster.
Adding to the long-term case for BBH is the point that healthcare is evolving and biotech companies have long been architects of that evolution.
“Biotechnology will have an increasingly larger impact on our lives as innovations incur, which can range from stopping or reversing hair loss to extending our natural life spans to centuries. The potential is there and has always been, but it has not been a great bet for investors so far,” added Rabener.
Additionally, BBH is a cost-effective, passively managed ETF -- traits that could play into its favor over the long haul given the inability of many professional investors to generate index-beating returns in the biotech space.
“It is interesting to consider why active management has not created value in this sector. Many mutual and hedge fund managers have outside advisors that are experts in drug development, for whose advice they pay thousands of dollars,” concluded Rabener. “This should create a competitive advantage compared to a generalist portfolio manager or retail investors, but it has not. Financial experts are overrated given the general lack of alpha generation by active managers, but it seems scientific experts fare no better.”

Teacher threw hockey stick at 8-year-old, mom says
PRINCETON, Minn. (WCCO) - A Minnesota mom says her 8-year-old son is afraid to return to school this fall after his gym teacher allegedly threw a hockey stick at him.
Jodi Johnson is furious over what she says happened to her son Easton in gym class on March 28, one day after his 8th birthday. The incident was captured on surveillance video.
“They would just say that it was a bad reaction the teacher had, and I just had a hard time swallowing that that’s how they feel,” she said.
Easton was throwing hockey sticks into a pile along with other students when teacher Kim Neubauer allegedly picked up the stick the boy just laid down and threw it back at him.
“With the force of the stick, it hit the upper part of his mouth, and it did knock a tooth out,” Johnson said.
She says that, fortunately, the tooth was a baby tooth, but the root and gum were significantly damaged and Easton’s lip was also busted.
The Princeton School District says they put Neubauer on unpaid administrative leave two weeks after the incident. That leave lasted through the end of the school year, and when the year ended, the district says it ended Neubauer’s employment.
After she was let go, the district publicly recognized it as a retirement, putting up a congratulatory post on Facebook. That post was ultimately taken down.
Easton’s parents say the district’s actions are not enough. His mom is frustrated no one can be held accountable because there is no criminal investigation into the incident.
“The school district, the principal, the nurse – nobody made a police report,” Johnson said.
Easton is currently enjoying summer break with his dog, Mya, but his mom says his anxiety about starting third grade in the fall is already setting in.
“He’s very nervous about gym class, who teaches gym class, what do they do in that gym class,” Johnson said. “It’s gonna take quite a bit, I think, to get him to feel comfortable again.”
Princeton Superintendent Ben Barton released a statement, saying in part that student safety is a top concern. He said that privacy laws prevent the district from sharing exactly what action was taken regarding this incident.

Taylor Walls' 3-Run Homer in 10th Gives Rays Dramatic Win over Cardinals
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Tampa Bay pitcher Jeffrey Springs had done his job, twirling six scoreless innings Tuesday night, and he was just finishing up in the training room when Taylor Walls strolled to the plate in the bottom of the 10th inning with the Rays in another hole.
But Walls, a .151 hitter who's been struggling to find his groove, saved the day, ripping a long drive off of Cardinals reliever Drew VerHagen down the right field line that banged high off the foul pole for a three-run homer, giving the Rays a thrilling 4-2 win.
"Oh man, we were going nuts in (the locker room) watching it. I had just finished up my arm care stuff, and that was so exciting. It was unbelievable,'' Springs said. "Hitting is so hard, and he's been putting in a lot of work. I'm really happy for him that he could have a moment like that. I mean, we really needed that, really needed to get out of here with a win.''
They sure did, because the Rays have been struggling to find their way offensively. They blew a seven-inning scoreless start by Drew Rasmussen on Saturday, and it looked like they were going to waste Springs' gem on Tuesday, where he had pitched six scoreless innings, his fourth outing in the past seven where opponents have failed to score.
It was still scoreless when he left after the sixth inning. The Rays struck first in the seventh when Manuel Margot led off the inning with a double and clean-up hitter Kevin Kiermaier grounded out, moving Margot up a bag. Third baseman Isaac Parades hit a long sacrifice fly to left center, and the Rays had a lead.
St. Louis tied it back up in the eighth, getting a walk at two hits off Rays reliever Andrew Kittredge, who just came off the injured list on Sunday. The second single, by center fielder Harrison Bader, made it 1-1.
The Rays were in trouble in the top of the 10th. Colin Poche came in to pitch the 10th for Tampa Bay, and Paul Goldschmidt hit a ground ball to second to lead off the inning. Rays second baseman Vidal Brujan opted to throw to third to cut down placed runner Tommy Edman. But his throw was wide, and everyone was safe.
Nolan Arenado was hit by a pitch to load the bases with none out, and Lars Nootbaar hit a sacrifice fly to right to score Edman. Poche struck out Tyler O'Neill for the second out and, but then Harrison Bader ripped a single to center field. Kiermaier charged the ball hard and came up throwing, making a perfect toss that catcher Francisco Mejia handled well and got the tag down just in time for the final out.
"I just wanted to get to it quick and make a good, accurate throw,'' Kiermaier said. ''I did everything I could to get it there, but the best thing about that play was Frankie's tag. That was a heck of a tag, because it's not easy to do. He deserved all the credit for that one. Shout-out to Frankie.''
It was big, keeping it to a one-run game. Paredes walked to open the inning, and Brett Phillips tried to bunt despite two infielders charging. Arenado made a great play and throw to cut down Kiermaier, the placed runner, at third. Yandy Diaz popped out for the second out, bringing up Walls. With a 2-2 count, he ripped the ball down the line, and was worried it was going to hook foul.

"I was trying to breathe and stay composed in the moment, like I was playing Whiffle Ball in the back yard,'' said Walls, who had his first big-league walk-off and couldn't remember the last time he had done such a thing. "That was all that was going through my head, to stay calm and just breathe. I thought it was going foul, and I was borderline pissed off, honestly. As soon as I hit it, I thought, 'wow, that's way fair,' but then it really started hooking, and I'm thinking, 'you've got to be kidding me.'
"As soon as it hit the foul pole, it was just a roller coaster or emotions. from happy to pissed off to happy again. It feels great. I come in to compete every day, and I have confidence to make the right adjustments. It's huge not for me, but for us, because we really needed a win.''
Walls zipped around bases and touched home plated surrounded by jubilant teammates.
"Very impressive. You feel good for Wallsy, and any of these guys who have been scuffling a little bit,'' Rays manager Kevin Cash said. "To come up with a big hit like that and ultimately help us win a ballgame has to be a great feeling for him.''
The win snapped a two-game losing streak and put the Rays (32-23) back to nine games over .500. The Cardinals fell to 32-24.
And getting the win meant it made Springs' start even more valuable.
"(Springs) was awesome again,'' Cash said. "I just continue to be so impressed with his work. He's turned himself into a pretty good starting pitcher on the fly here.''

Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus says there are “levers available” to the government on the handling of the Bernard Collaery case but remained tight-lipped about any steps the Commonwealth may take in the matter, as advocates renewed calls for Canberra lawyer’s prosecution to be abandoned.
Collaery, a former ACT attorney-general, was charged in 2018 with five counts of leaking classified information for allegedly helping his client, an ex-spy known only as Witness K, reveal information about Australia’s bugging operation of East Timor’s government during commercial negotiations in 2004 to carve up the oil and gas resources in the Timor Sea.
Dreyfus, who as shadow attorney-general was critical of the Morrison government’s approach to the Collaery case, confirmed he had already received departmental briefings on it since being sworn in as the nation’s top law officer last week.
“I’m not going to go into any detail at all. I’m considering information, which the department is providing to me. I’ve sought further details and I’m not going to comment further. It would not be appropriate to do so. This is a prosecution process,” Dreyfus told The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age.
In opposition, Dreyfus implored the Morrison government to explain why the ongoing prosecution of Collaery was in the public interest and expressed concern about the secrecy that shrouded the proceedings. The Commonwealth has sought to use the National Security Information Act to argue the case should be heard behind closed doors.
Collaery is facing the prospect of jail, and after years of delays, his trial date has been set for October 24 in the ACT Supreme Court.
Dreyfus, when asked whether there were levers he could exercise now that the trial date had been set, said “yes” but declined to comment further.
“I will say no more than that. There are levers available,” he said.
The charges against Collaery and Witness K were authorised in 2018 by then-attorney-general Christian Porter, whose consent was required before the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions could commence proceedings under the Intelligence Services Act 2001. In June 2020, Witness K was handed a three-month suspended sentence after pleading guilty, but Collaery decided to fight the charges against him.
Kieran Pender, a senior lawyer with the Human Rights Law Centre, said the attorney-general had the power under common law and the Judiciary Act to drop the prosecution.
“He should do so as soon as possible and enact stronger whistleblower protection laws to ensure this never happens again. It should not be a crime to tell the truth about government wrongdoing,” he said.
Key members of the crossbench in the lower house and the Senate – including Greens senator Nick McKim, incoming ACT senator David Pocock, Kooyong MP Monique Ryan and Goldstein MP Zoe Daniel – are among those urging Dreyfus to withdraw the Commonwealth’s consent for the prosecution.
“Mr Dreyfus should immediately instruct the DPP to cease the prosecution and drop all charges against Bernard Collaery. We have written to Mr Dreyfus to express this in the strongest possible terms,” McKim said.
“Mr Collaery and Witness K consistently acted in the public interest and should never have been prosecuted in the first place.”
Dreyfus has been cautious not to comment on the substance of the charges, but in remarks to the Australian Bar Association in April, said the “very manner in which the government has sought to conduct the prosecution [of Collaery] appears to me to be an affront to the rule of law”.

Wellesley Public Schools invites the public to say Farewell to Hunnewell Elementary School on June 15 from 5-7pm. The open house will give you a last chance to visit classrooms, leave a message, or soak in other memories.
My personal favorite memory is recalling how the gym teacher used to tell our kids “no running!” (I guess that preserved their legs so that they could run cross country and track as they got older.)
The Hunnewell Elementary School, built in 1938, is being razed and replaced with a new structure slated to open in early 2024. Construction begins this summer. In the meantime, staff and students will be divvied up among other schools under a swing space plan come fall. More on the school construction plans.
The new building will house 18 classrooms over 76,500 sq. ft. of space, and will pave the way, along with a new Hardy Elementary School, for the elimination of Upham Elementary School. That will reduce the number of public elementary schools in town from seven to six.
Voters approved funds for construction of the schools in December of 2021.

Monday was a special day for Marion County as the Middletown Commons development celebrated five businesses at their new locations.
Marion County Chamber of Commerce officials, along with other county officials and business owners, marked the grand re-openings of both White’s Fine Jewelry and spaOasis, as well as the openings of Agnes and Alfred Boutique, The Supplement Shack and A&K Clothing.
Those stores join with the previously opened Apple Annie’s and Aldi to show the tremendous growth enjoyed by the development since David and Richard Biafora took over the former Middletown Mall and totally redesigned and renovated it for updated use.
Adding to the remarkable achievement of the development is the fact that all five stores are women-owned enterprises.
Marion County Chamber of Commerce President Tina Shaw, who continues to do a tremendous job in her role, praised the effort of these women and the developers.
“As women, you always want to try to empower each other, and sometimes it’s hard to get women to engage,” Shaw said. “When other women see that this can be done and five women entrepreneurs did this successfully, it’s very empowering.”
Marion County Chamber of Commerce Board Chair Jonathan Board said the new businesses show the potential of the development and county.
“It speaks to the spirit of those entrepreneurs in Marion County,” Board said. “We have five women who are stepping out and saying, ‘We have a product, we know people want it, and we’re going to stand up and take the risk and bring this to Marion County.’ That is phenomenal.”
Both had high words of praise for the development and the Biaforas, as did the shop owners.
White’s Fine Jewelry has been in business almost 25 years. It moved to its new location in late 2020 and is excited by the amount of interest of other businesses to locate there, as well as the foot traffic in the area of the store.
“We’re so happy that we were able to take the opportunity as early as we did and get in here and get established,” Jann Stewart said. “We’re so excited every day that we hear someone new is coming in and they’re adding another business. It really solidifies all of those ideas that, fortunately, the Biaforas had and were ready to invest in our area. We’re so excited to have new businesses in our community. This is my home, and I couldn’t be happier to see this growth and activity.”
Board said Middletown Commons and Monday’s ribbon-cuttings are proof that something special is happening in Marion County.
“I would challenge anyone in North Central West Virginia and all of West Virginia to achieve this,” Board said. “I think we stand up against anyone throughout the I-79 corridor. I don’t know anywhere else where they’re (holding ribbon cuttings) for five businesses in one day. … It’s humbling to see that spirit. … It was always a goal, and to now see it come to fruition is just extraordinary. … There is something very special that is happening right here, and I don’t know if it’s happening anywhere else.”
Shaw said Middletown Commons offers “something for everyone.”
“You’ve got retail and health care and restaurants and a service industry and offices,” Shaw said. “There is something for everyone here, and it’s only going to grow.”
Middletown Commons demonstrates what can happen when developers are empowered to build on their vision. And when local organizations, like the Chamber of Commerce, and government entities are supportive.
Monday was a truly special day. Let us build on it for even more success in the future at the Commons, as well as throughout Marion County. | https://www.wvnews.com/fairmontnews/opinion/far-from-common/article_2a18057e-e66a-11ec-9251-0f18b3fb3b27.html | 2022-06-08T05:33:12Z | https://www.wvnews.com/fairmontnews/opinion/far-from-common/article_2a18057e-e66a-11ec-9251-0f18b3fb3b27.html | false | 1 |

Ukraine Ambassador Slams Israel For Refusing to Supply Iron Dome
by Sharon Wrobel
Ukraine’s Ambassador urged Israel on Tuesday to supply the war-torn country with its air defensive system against missiles to help fight off Russia’s invasion.
“While Russia slaughters our citizens – the Israeli government remains in its ‘comfort zone’ and refrains from providing Ukraine with minimal defensive assistance,” Ukraine’s Ambassador to Israel Yevgen Korniychuk lamented. “We ask Israel for a defensive tool in the form of an ‘Iron Dome’ and similar defensive tools.”
“As Israel protects the residents of the Gaza Strip from Hamas fire – we must protect our citizens – women, children and men,” Korniychuk added.
Since Russia’s invasion of the Ukraine, Israel has condemned Moscow and provided humanitarian aid. Israel’s field hospital in western Ukraine treated more than 6,000 Ukrainian refugees, including 750 children, at the 66-bed center — dubbed “Kochav Meir” (Shining Star) in honor of former Prime Minister Golda Meir, who was born in Ukraine.

Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has also sought to act as a mediator to try and bring an end to the Russia-Ukraine crisis, while also balancing regional security interests implicating Moscow.
Last month, Israel delivered 2,000 helmets and 500 protective vests for emergency and civilian organizations in Ukraine.
“The residents of Israel show love and sympathy for us. It is important for me to thank Israeli citizens, companies and organizations, who have been helping Ukraine since the first day of the war,” Korniychuk acknowledged. “The government also shows empathy in speech, but when it comes to actions – that is something else.”
Korniychuk criticized Israel for delivering only 10 percent of the protective helmets and protective vests the Ukraine had asked for.
Israel Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz announced last month that injured Ukrainian soldiers will be flown to its country for medical treatment and that millions of shekels will be allocated to send more medicine directly to the war-torn country.
Meanwhile, Ukraine’s envoy said that Israel is delaying the treatment of “former soldiers whose limbs were amputated to fit them with prostheses.”
“There is no humanitarian aid more than this,” he said. “The Israeli government must consider the moral aspect and decide whether it will join the right side like other democracies in the world.”
Since Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24, an estimated 40,000 civilians have been killed, 12 million Ukrainians have left their homes with 7 million displaced within the country and 5 million have left the country, according to Korniychuk. | https://www.algemeiner.com/2022/06/07/ukraine-ambassador-slams-israel-for-refusing-to-supply-iron-dome/ | 2022-06-08T05:57:48Z | https://www.algemeiner.com/2022/06/07/ukraine-ambassador-slams-israel-for-refusing-to-supply-iron-dome/ | false | 1 |
The Rotary Club of Temple South, the Rotary Club of Temple and Temple College are cultivating local entrepreneurs with a new program called Launch Temple — a collaborative effort that provides training, mentorship, networking and funding to current and prospective small-business owners.
The 10-week program, which was entirely free, helped these budding entrepreneurs develop complete business plans through nine different training sessions held at Temple College.
“This was something extremely special for us,” Temple College President Christy Ponce said during a ceremony at the Temple College Pavilion on Tuesday. “It’s a really great partnership among a lot of friends and colleagues to do something special in our community.”
Rod Henry, president and CEO of the Temple Chamber of Commerce and president of the Rotary Club of Temple, agreed.
“I am quite impressed with what is going on … and it’s been interesting getting to know the 13 entrepreneurs,” he told the Telegram. “Some of them already have a business up and running … so this just helps them strengthen their knowledge. But all of these individuals have either worked to improve upon an existing business plan or to build their first business plan.”
Marcos Gomez, who is employed as a cardiographic technician at the Olin E. Teague Veterans’ Medical Center in Temple, was among the 13 individuals to graduate from the program’s first cohort. He joined the Launch Temple program to gain valuable resources and to network with other entrepreneurs and community leaders.
“My company is Infinite Entertainment. We are a party rental service providing inflatable bounce houses, water slides and various party equipment,” he said. “Infinite Entertainment has been open for a year and has been able to give back to the community by supporting local organizations such as Hands and Feet Ministries, AWARE Central Texas and Temple ISD. It is my goal to continue to grow my business so that I can have a bigger impact and help our local community.”
Casi Coates, who has been the outreach coordinator for the Temple Public Library for the past five years, joined Launch Temple with a similar motive.
“I have always wanted to open a speakeasy-style venue,” she said. “I think it is important to have a place to go where you can have a drink with friends, and have a real conversation. I joined this class because I wanted to start taking the right steps toward my goals and learning everything I can from people who have been there.”
Gomez, Coates and the 11 other Launch Participants will work with local mentors — who include Dave Hedge, Temple Daily Telegram general manager — over the next six months.
“We were really unsure of what this cohort of Launch Temple would look like and how it would all sort of pan out, and we just couldn’t be happier with the results,” Nancy Glover, the city of Temple’s director of housing and community development, told participants. “In the coming weeks and months we will be reaching out to you individually to get some feedback and to see what we can do to improve moving forward … so you’re not done yet. You have a little bit more to go, but this is the fun part where you get to meet your mentors, build those relationships and really start to launch your business here in Temple.” | https://www.tdtnews.com/news/business/article_03c2c480-e6d9-11ec-8561-67b8992dd075.html | 2022-06-08T06:01:01Z | https://www.tdtnews.com/news/business/article_03c2c480-e6d9-11ec-8561-67b8992dd075.html | false | 1 |

Harry Kane SMASHES Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi records as captain nets 50th England goal against Germany
HARRY KANE has outperformed Cristiano Ronaldo AND Lionel Messi by scoring 50 England goals in just 71 games.
The striker, 28, was clinical from the penalty spot to equalise late on against Germany on Tuesday as the Three Lions drew 1-1 in the Nations League fixture.
In doing so Kane overtook Bobby Charlton in the all-time England goalscoring charts - and is now just three goals behind leading scoring Wayne Rooney.
But he has reached the milestone far quicker than the former Manchester United man.
Kane has also hit 50 international goals in less appearances than Ronaldo and Messi, who took 114 and 107 games respectively.
The Tottenham star also boasts one of the best goal per game ratios of any England player in the modern era with 0.7 goals per game.
Only fellow Spurs legend Jimmy Greaves, on 0.77 goals per game, outperforms the England captain since the Second World War.
Kane is delighted to have hit the milestone of 50 goals and spoke about the achievement after the game.
He said: "A really nice feeling, you know. I had a couple of early chances in the game. Obviously the first one over the bar and then (Manuel) Neuer made a good save for the second.
"I thought maybe it was one of those days but we kept going and probably played our best football in the last half-hour of the game.

"Physically, we were really strong and good to get the goal and just a shame that we couldn’t get the goal at the end.
"I love scoring goals, I’ve always loved scoring goals especially for my country. Whenever I can help the team, that’s the most important thing. Good to bounce back with a result tonight, not an easy place to come and now we’ve got two games at home to try and get two wins."
Gary Lineker, England's fourth record scorer with 48 goals, praised Kane after the game.
He tweeted: "50 goals for Harry Kane. Fabulous achievement. England play so much better when they have a go. Too much talent to play overly cautious and it doesn’t play to their strengths." | https://www.the-sun.com/sport/5513895/kane-ronaldo-messi-record-england-germany/ | 2022-06-08T06:05:45Z | https://www.the-sun.com/sport/5513895/kane-ronaldo-messi-record-england-germany/ | false | 2 |

Superstar Colombian singer Shakira is one heck of a professional. Her professionalism remains unmatched, especially when her personal life is in the eye of the media storm these days. The 45-year-old has reportedly separated from her partner of 12 years, Barcelona football player Gerard Pique amidst an alleged cheating scandal. While the reason for Shakira and Gerard’s split remains unverified, the ‘Queen of Latin Music’ does not let it affect her work. She is all set to judge the dance competition series Dancing with Myself on NBC along with Nick Jonas and Liza Koshy. And Shakira shared a few fun moments with her co-judges on her Instagram stories and posts.

Amazon offers important advice to Kindle users losing major feature this summer
AMAZON has just issued important advice to millions of Kindle users who will soon lose access to a crucial ebook feature.
Amazon this summer will be removing the ability to purchase ebooks directly from certain ageing Kindle e-readers. The change is coming into effect on August 17 2022 and will impact older Kindle models such as the second generation Kindle e-reader and the fifth-gen device. For anyone that is impacted by the upcoming change, and has some burning questions Amazon has just launched a new help page on its website.
This FAQ page gives Kindle users all the information they need to prepare for the upcoming change.
Introducing the help page Amazon said: "As of August 17, 2022, you'll no longer be able to browse for, buy, or borrow books directly from certain Kindle devices introduced 10+ years ago. You can still use these devices to read. As always, you'll be able to browse, buy, and borrow books on other supported devices or through amazon.com/ebooks."
If you're not already aware, here are the Kindle models that will be impacted by this upcoming change...
Kindle (2nd Gen) International, Kindle DX International, Kindle Keyboard, Kindle (4th Gen), and Kindle (5th Gen)
While Amazon will remove the ability to purchase ebooks directly from these devices you will still be able to browse for and purchase new ebooks from the Amazon website and send it to your Kindle.
Amazon: How to snag cheaper deals from 'secret' warehouse
If this sounds like a bit too much extra work for you, and are wondering what your options are then you have a few choices available.
You can click here to see if your current Kindle is eligible for trade-in so you can get money off a newer model.
If you are thinking of upgrading to a new Kindle you can take advantage of an offer Amazon is running which throws in three months access to Kindle Unlimited entirely for free.
This subscription service - which usually costs £7.99 a month - gives you access to a library of over a million ebooks, so you'll have plenty to choice for what book to get immersed in next.
Just bear in mind after your free trial ends it will auto-renew.
Alternatively, you could decide to try something different and opt for an e-reader from a rival brand such as Kobo.
Kobos have a higher entry price point, with the entry level Kobo Nia priced at £89.99.
But unlike the Kindle range, you won't find any Kobos that have ads on them. Not only that, but the Nia has a better pixels-per-inch rate than the entry-level Kindle which provides crisper resolution.
Plus, unlike the Kindle a Kobo isn't limited to just one storefront as the Rakuten ereaders support a range of formats like the widely used epub file type.
Amazon has confirmed that it's at long last bringing epub support to Kindle, but that is in the future and not available at the moment. | https://www.express.co.uk/life-style/science-technology/1622106/Amazon-important-advice-Kindle-users-losing-ebook-feature | 2022-06-08T06:16:47Z | https://www.express.co.uk/life-style/science-technology/1622106/Amazon-important-advice-Kindle-users-losing-ebook-feature | false | 2 |
PANGU Party general secretary, Maurice Tovebae, said Pangu is solid and going into election with a vibrant team that will form government and carry on the legacy they started three years ago.
An irate Mr Tovebae said that the reports in the paper yesterday on Deputy Prime Minister John Rosso and Planning Minister Rainbo Paita (eyeing the leadership in the United Labour Party) is hogwash and had no truth in it.
He said this is the work of opponents who were desperate to form government.
“I can dispel the rumours, Morobe is solid, Pangu is solid throughout the country and you can witness that by seeing all the colours right throughout the country even in the jungles and everywhere,” Mr Tovebae said.
“Unlike before, Pangu is solid and these are some propaganda employed by our opponents but unfortunately we are lock solid and Morobe is happy because Prime Minister James Marape in his wisdom and the party in its wisdom, gave back the Deputy Prime Ministership to Morobe again and that is the vote of confidence under the Marape leadership and that’s the confidence that Pangu Party has for Morobe. You know Morobe is home base so you cannot break Morobe from Pangu, so we are solid.
“It will never work, team Morobe with Governor Ginson Saonu, Deputy Prime Minister John Rosso and Planning Minister Rainbo Paita and rest of our members, we are solid with new candidates that we have endorsed in Morobe.
“We are going into election with one team as Pangu in Morobe and one team Pangu in PNG. So we are united, no split and that split will never come even after the election and formation of government.
“At this time we are solid. And I want PNG to know this, that the ruling Pangu Party is solid as rock and we are united and there will never be a split from even the two senior ministers, our Deputy Prime Minister and Planning Minister.” | https://postcourier.com.pg/pangu-dispels-rumours/ | 2022-06-08T06:17:09Z | https://postcourier.com.pg/pangu-dispels-rumours/ | false | 1 |

The minor son of an All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) MLA, named as an accused in the alleged gang-rape of a teenage girl in Hyderabad's Jubilee Hills last week, has been arrested, the Hyderabad Police said during a press briefing on Tuesday.
On June 4, the BJP legislator at a press conference claimed that the youngster seen in the purported video was the son of an AIMIM MLA. Alleging that AIMIM MLA's son was involved in the gang rape, he had said they have more evidence to prove the connection of the MLA's son.
Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan has sought a detailed report within two days from the Chief Secretary and Director General of Police regarding the case.
A total of six accused have been booked so far including five minors, and one adult. All of them belonged to politically-connected families. The car in which the attack took place has been seized.
The sixth person has been accused of outraging the modesty of the girl, voluntarily causing hurt and also sexual assault.

Six accused have been arrested in this case, out of them, one is a major. "All 5 juveniles along with 1 major have been arrested. Saduddin Malik is the only major. Of the accused, 4 have already been produced before Juvenile Home, the remaining 2 will be produced today," Hyderabad Police Commissioner C V Anand told reporters on Tuesday night.
The fifth minor who was arrested on Tuesday was not present when the gang rape of the girl took place. He got down from the car much before the heinous incident took place,” Police commissioner C V Anand said at the briefing.
No rape case was filed against the fifth juvenile. However, after going through the CCTV footage and the videos circulated on social media, a case under Section 354 and Section 323 of the IPC, besides under the POCSO Act, was filed against him, Anand said.
The first five have been accused under sections of gang rape, abduction, and voluntarily causing hurt as also sections of the POCSO Act, meaning they could get the death penalty, 20 years in jail or a lifetime in jail.
"We have booked them under the stringent sections, so they get the maximum punishment for this heinous crime," Hyderabad police commissioner CV Anand said.
Last week, BJP MLA Raghunandan Rao released a video clip and photographs of the teen and her assailants, alleging the presence of the MLA's son in a car with her. The police, he alleged, were engaged in a cover-up.
Initially, the police maintained that the legislator's son was not involved in the gang rape as he had left the group at a local pastry shop as per NDTV reports.
The harassment of the girl began around 3 pm inside the pub itself. Subsequently, they trapped her outside the pub at around 5:40 pm after her friend left. One of the boys had offered her a ride and the "girl was trapped by the CCLs (children in conflict with law)," Mr Anand said.

One of the minors caught by the police is the son of a local leader of the state's ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi. Another minor is the son of a TRS leader from Sanga Reddy as per the reports.
The punishment under the sections could be imprisonment for life till death or even the death penalty. The case would be tried in a special court. Amid allegations of involvement of children of influential persons, Anand said the gang rape happened in a Multi-Purpose Vehicle (MPV). It seems to be an official vehicle, he said.

Do I Have To Play Casino Games With Real Money?
While many casinos do offer free-play versions of all their games, nothing beats the feeling of having some skin in the game. It may be cool to test out the games before you commit financially to one game in particular but putting down a wager or two goes a long way in adding to the overall excitement of online gambling.

Jarvis Landry Credits Jameis Winston For Him Joining The Saints
The New Orleans Saints believe they are in winnow mode with this current iteration of the team. Last year they had a top 10 defense however they had a subpar offense. Well, Mickey Loomis and the Saints don't want a repeat of last year so this offseason they brought in a slew of talent. One of those names was former LSU wide receiver, Jarvis Landry.
Landry had his first practice with the Saints this week during OTA's. He sat down with the media to discuss his thoughts on being with the black and gold, Jameis Winston, Michael Thomas, and much more.
Landry made sure to let the fans know that he is healthy. He took his time getting back to make sure he was ready to go full force. He also went on to discuss his relationship with Jameis Winston. Landry stated that Winston is one of the main reasons he came back home. Landry went on to state that Winston's leadership is infectious.
Landry also went on to discuss Head Coach Dennis Allen. He called Allen an amazing coach and someone who is understanding, as Landry had a lot going on before he came home. And Coach Allen was very accommodating.
Landry also discussed his relationship with Michael Thomas. He called him his brother and stated that he is beyond excited to see Thomas return to the field. He also said that it's up to Coach Carmicheal to figure out how to make all these wideouts work. But they have the talent to be special.
It's great to see Landry back home and healthy. He will be very important to the Saints' plans going forward. And if today was a sign of anything going forward, the best play of OTA's this week was Jarvis Landry's one-handed catch. Hopefully, we will get more of that in the season. But for his first week as a Saint, you have to be excited about everything Landry has said and done.

June 7: Ukraine will only be able to export a maximum 2 million tonnes of grains a month if Russia refuses to lift its blockade of the country's Black Sea ports, Taras Vysotskyi, Ukraine's first deputy minister of Agrarian Policy and Food, said on Tuesday.
Ukraine is trying to export its vast stores of grain by road, river and rail at present to help to avert a global food crisis, but these routes face severe capacity constraints.
Before Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb 24, the country was able to export up to 6 million tonnes of grains a month. Since the grain shipments from Ukraine's Black Sea ports stopped, more than 20 million tonnes of grain are stuck in the country's silos.
"I think we reached the limit. The biggest amount we can export is about 2 million tonnes a month," Vysotskyi, speaking via video link, told participants at an International Grains Council (IGC) conference in London.
He said even if Russia's port blockade is lifted Ukraine would need about six months to demine the waters around its Black Sea ports, meaning the world would remain short of grains for some time.
Ukraine is the world's fourth largest grains exporter.
Global wheat prices Wv1 hit record highs in March and the surge in food prices has triggered protests across developing countries, as well as contributing to an acceleration in headline inflation rates throughout the world.
The United Nations is trying to broker a deal to get Ukraine's grain shipped from its Black Sea ports such as Odesa. Russia has said it wants Western sanctions lifted as part of the deal and has also accused Ukraine of mining its own waters.
Ukraine's grain, oilseed and vegetable oil exports rose 80% in May month on month to 1.743 million tonnes but the volumes are still significantly below the exports in May 2021, the agriculture ministry said on Tuesday. -Reuters | https://www.observerbd.com/news.php?id=369355 | 2022-06-08T06:58:01Z | https://www.observerbd.com/news.php?id=369355 | false | 3 |

VIVIZ and former SISTAR member Soyou recently shared the stage as part of the girl group’s set at the BNF Festival.
During their appearance at the festival, which took place at Olympic Park’s 88 Lake Waterside Stage in Seoul, the two Big Planet Made acts teamed up for a cover of SISTAR’s 2015 hit ‘Shake It’.
VIVIZ and Soyou largely stayed true to the original song, with the girl group’s Eunha and Soyou handling most of the verses and chorus. Meanwhile, VIVIZ members SinB and Umji tackled the rap portion together.
“Make it louder / More, make it louder / Keep shaking me / Amazingly shake me (Shake it, oh, shake it / All night, with me, shake it baby,” the four K-pop idols sang on the chorus.
VIVIZ – comprised of former GFRIEND members SinB, Eunha and Umji – recently competed on the Mnet reality TV series Queendom 2. As part of the reality, the trio released the song ‘Red Sun!’, which was used as part of the voting process to determine the winner of the series.
The group are also set to perform at the MIK Festival 2022, which will take place in Southwark Park, London. The group will be sharing the stage with acts like Red Velvet, EXO‘s Suho, Chung Ha, Pentagon and Golden Child.
In other K-pop news, girl group fromis_9 have shared that they will be returning with a new mini-album, titled ‘from our Memento Box’, which is due out on June 27 at 6pm KST. | https://www.nme.com/news/music/viviz-soyo-cover-sistar-shake-it-3242181 | 2022-06-08T07:07:18Z | https://www.nme.com/news/music/viviz-soyo-cover-sistar-shake-it-3242181 | false | 4 |
