After no concerts in 2020, and a limited mini-series with some challenging circumstances in 2021, the popular Fonthill Bandshell Summer Concert Series is back with a full lineup this year, its 16th season.
The volunteer selection committee has reviewed hundreds of options for this year to bring together an eclectic mix of live entertainment for Peace Park, in downtown Fonthill, every Thursday evening from June 16 to Sept. 1.
The 2022 lineup features 12 performances, including original and tribute acts. They include: Juno-award winners and chart toppers, Good Lovelies; Canadian country artist Marshall Dane — nominated as Male Artist of the Year five years in a row by the Country Music Association of Ontario; tributes to Abba, Creedance Clearwater Revival, and Elton John; and for the July 14 Summerfest offering, a Tina Turner tribute called “Simply the Best.” The full lineup includes a variety of genres and eras of music. Along the way audiences will hear Motown, disco, soul, country, and blues, as well as old-fashioned rock ’n’ roll.
Sponsorships help make the series possible, helping offset the cost of a professional sound system and musician fees. Other costs are covered by a one-time annual donation option (purchase and display a button), as well as collections made each week during the concerts. Volunteers will be selling the annual buttons at the Pelham Farmers Market June 2 and 9.
“Our volunteers are really looking forward to seeing everyone,” said Gayle Baltjes-Chataway, committee chair. “We too felt the isolation of the last several years and can’t wait to welcome people to join us again for a wonderful summer of live top-quality music at the Fonthill Bandshell.”
Each Thursday evening concert begins at 7 PM. Free parking is available in various locations, and once again the evenings will include a Summer Chill Market, which is adjacent to the Pelham Farmers Market. For detailed program information, visit: www.fonthillbandshell.com.

Judge hits 2 of Yanks' 6 HRs in rout of Cubs, 10th win in 11
NEW YORK — Aaron Judge hit two of the Yankees' six solo homers off rookie Matt Swarmer, and New York routed the Chicago Cubs 8-0 on Saturday night for its 10th win in 11 games.
Giancarlo Stanton, Gleyber Torres, Jose Trevino and former Cub Anthony Rizzo also went deep against the 28-year-old right-hander as the Yankees hit their most homers since Sept. 17, 2020, against Toronto. Swarmer became the first Cubs pitcher in 138 years to allow six homers.
Batting leadoff for the fourth time this year, Judge hit his second career leadoff homer, sending a 1-0 fastball from Swarmer (1-1) into the left field seats. Judge added his major league-leading 24th, one of three home runs in the fifth.
"It's fun, I don't mind leading off," Judge said. "It doesn't matter if I'm leading off or hitting second."
Judge had his 21st multihomer game and leads the majors with five this season. He joined Babe Ruth (1928) as the second Yankee to get five multihomer games within the Yankees' first 59 games. He also joined Babe Ruth and Mickey Mantle as the third Yankee to hit at least 24 homers within the first 59 games
Stanton hit a 436-foot drive off the facing of the left-field second deck in the fourth for his 360th homer — one shy of Joe DiMaggio. Stanton's 119.8 mph drive was the hardest-hit home run in the major league this season. Of 42 homers hit 119 mph or higher since Statcast began tracking in 2015, Stanton has 31.
"It's quite a sight," Judge said of Stanton. "You try to soak it all in the moment because when he hits one like that you don't see that every day."
Stanton's drive was the hardest hit in the majors since he had a 120.3 mph single Sept. 16 in Baltimore.
"You hit the ball on the barrel, I feel like when anyone squares the balls up, it's a cool little euphoric feeling," Stanton said.
New York leads the majors with 94 home runs and is 23-1 when Judge and Stanton both homer, including 7-0 this year. The Yankees are a major league-best 43-16.
Jordan Montgomery (2-1) allowed five hits in seven innings, struck out five, walked none and got 12 outs via ground balls.
"It was going to be a struggle if we didn't get a lot of length from him," Boone said. "That was just what the doctor ordered.
Ron Marinaccio and Lucas Luetge pitched a hitless inning each, and the Yankees tied the Mets for the big league lead with their ninth shutout — the Yankees' most at this point of the season since 1967.
Chicago lost its fifth straight, matching its longest skid this season, and at 23-35 dropped a season-worst 12 games under .500. Schwarmer allowed six runs and seven hits in five innings in his third career start, his ERA rising from 1.50 to 4.24.
"The Yankees have some powerful swings, some big strong guys," Cubs manager David Ross said. "They have the potential to put up some numbers with one swing."
The six homers allowed were the most off a Cubs pitcher since Tom Lee on June 28, 1884. Schwarmer became the second big league pitcher to give up six solo homers after the Brooklyn Dodgers' Hollis "Sloppy" Thurston at the New York Giants on Aug. 13, 1932.
"I was getting behind hitters sometimes and leaving the ball up in the zone," Swarmer said.
The Cubs have gone hitless in 40 at-bats with runners in scoring position since Patrick Wisdom's RBI double in the eighth inning Sunday against St. Louis.
Torres followed Stanton's drive by homering for the second straight night and with 12 this season matched his total for 2020 and 21 combined. Seven of his homers have been to right field.
Trevino raised his average to .309 with three hits and tied his career best with five home runs in 102 plate appearances, a total he reached in 302 with Texas last year.
After Stanton and Torres went back-to-back, Trevino hit a drive off the left field foul pole in the sixth. Judge homered into the left-center field seats two batters later. Rizzo made it 6-0 when he homered into the right field seats and flipped his bat before completing his trot around the bases.
Isiah Kiner-Falefa had an RBI single and Judge added a sacrifice fly in the sixth.
STREAK ENDS
Morel went 0 for 4 and saw his on-base streak to start his career end at 22 games. It was the longest by a Cubs rookie and the longest by a first-year player since Minnesota manager Rocco Baldelli opened his career by reaching in 24 straight for Tampa Bay in 2003.
TRAINER'S ROOM
Cubs: Placed LHP Wade Miley on the 15-day IL with a left shoulder strain. Miley was activated Friday but lasted three innings before exiting. Seiya Suzuki remained on the IL with a sprained left ring finger. He took batting practice and could be activated Sunday. … 2B Nick Madrigal (groin tightness) was held out of the starting lineup. … RHP Michael Rucker was recalled from Triple-A Iowa to replace Miley.
Yankees: LHP Aroldis Chapman (left Achilles tendinitis) threw a bullpen session that Boone said went well.
UP NEXT:
RHP Keegan Thompson (6-1, 3.17 ERA), coming off his first loss this year, starts Sunday night for the Cubs against Yankees RHP Jameson Taillon (6-1, 2.73).

Boxing-Riakporhe beats Turchi in two rounds at IBF cruiserweight eliminator
June 12 (Reuters) - British cruiserweight Richard Riakporhe scored a stunning win over Fabio Turchi in an IBF eliminator, landing a left hook body shot to deck the Italian in the second round and move closer to a shot at a world title.
A wincing Turchi managed to get back on his feet, but a member of his team entered the ring with a towel in hand to bring the contest to a halt.
Riakporhe, 32, preserved his unbeaten record with the 15th win of his career on Saturday, with 11 of those wins finishing inside the distance.
"I feel great, I didn't have much time to get into it," Riakporhe said. "I landed a good shot and I'm building up the reputation that I'm now the body snatcher.
"There were some points I was trying to target, my coaches are amazing. We had a gameplan, keep it long, but look for the opportunity and when you can punish, do it and that's exactly what I did.
"I keep telling everyone, I'm 'the' fighter. I've had four fights in nine months and want to go out again (later this year). We're taking over, all these champions are running scared."
Riakporhe's win takes him closer to a fight with IBF cruiserweight holder Mairis Briedis, providing the Latvian is able to beat Jai Opetaia in July.
On the undercard, Olympic champion Lauren Price beat Valgerdur Gudstensdottir on her professional debut.
Wales' Price, who won middleweight gold in Tokyo last year, won all six rounds of the bout.
"I wanted to relax while I was in there. I didn't want to rush my work and a great six rounds under my belt and let's go again," Price told Sky Sports.
"You've got to have your hands up more (in professional boxing), be a bit more wary, but I enjoyed it. A ring's a ring, isn't it."

(LEAD) S. Korea to 'normalize' security cooperation with Japan to address N.K. threats: minister
(ATTN: UPDATES throughout with more details; RECASTS 2nd para)
By Song Sang-ho
SINGAPORE, June 12 (Yonhap) -- South Korea seeks to "normalize" security cooperation with Japan and strengthen trilateral collaboration involving the United States to address North Korea's nuclear and missile threats, Seoul's defense minister said Sunday.
Lee Jong-sup was speaking at the annual Shangri-La Dialogue in this city state, striving to drum up global support to tackle the security challenges that he said can affect the overall Indo-Pacific region.
This year's session of Asia's premier defense forum took place amid increased tensions caused by the North's recent ballistic missile launches and its preparations for a nuclear test. Security concerns deepened further after North Korean leader Kim Jong-un reaffirmed his regime's principle of "power for power and head-on contest" during a recent key ruling party session.
The minister said that South Korea intends to engage in a "serious" dialogue with Japan not just to normalize security cooperation between the two countries but also to beef up trilateral cooperation with the U.S.
He pointed out "unresolved issues" between Seoul and Tokyo in an apparent allusion to historical and other rows largely stemming from Japan's 1910-45 colonization of the Korean Peninsula.
But he expressed Seoul's intention to "have the two sides put their wisdom together to reach reasonable solutions in a way that is in line with the two countries' shared interests."
Lee also laid out the Yoon Suk-yeol administration's goal to denuclearize the North in a "complete, verifiable" manner, stressing "our principle to establish a sustainable peace on the Korean Peninsula will remain firm and robust."
"To this end, we will set forth clear corresponding measures with the international community to pursue the denuclearization of North Korea," he said.
Lee highlighted Seoul's pursuit of a "bold plan that can yield groundbreaking improvements for North Korea's economy and its citizens' quality of life."
But he stressed such a drive will proceed "from a position of strength" that will be undergirded by efforts to better implement America's extended deterrence and "dramatically" increase South Korea's own military capabilities.
Extended deterrence refers to the U.S.' commitment to mobilizing a full range of its military capabilities, including nuclear options, to defend its ally.
Lee emphasized a linkage between stability of the peninsula and that of the overall region.
"South Korea's political, economic and cultural status as well as the distinctive geopolitical character of the Korean Peninsula are inseparable from the stability in the Indo-Pacific region," he said.
Lee also used his speech to outline a set of Seoul's initiatives to make more contributions to regional security.
Those include expanding cooperation with the Association of Southeast Asian Nations "in more domains, more proactively" through joint responses against cyberthreats and other challenges.
On the basis of the principles of "openness, transparency, and inclusiveness," he added, Seoul plans to expand cooperation with various regional security bodies, like the Quad forum.
"The Republic of Korea will seek to play a constructive role as a 'global pivotal state,' so that rather than ruling out a certain country, it can unlock the greatest amount of security benefits for the greatest number of countries," he said.

When the pandemic closed schools in March 2020 – abruptly ending classes and stranding children and working parents – leaders in Washington and Sacramento scrambled to provide relief.
The result was a series of stimulus measures that allocated $33.5 billion in state and federal funds to California’s K-12 schools to address the devastation of the pandemic. It was a staggering amount of one-time funding for the state’s cash-strapped schools, equal to a third of all the money they got the year before the pandemic.
Imagine your boss giving you a check equal to four months of your salary and telling you to spend it quickly or risk giving it back. For schools, this was money for things like laptops, air filters and mental health counselors – money to help kids.
But much of the funding has come with limited oversight and little transparency, according to a CalMatters investigation. No centralized state or federal database exists to show how schools have spent this money. And data from the districts’ quarterly spending reports provided to the state are so broad as to be virtually useless in tracking this COVID relief money.
Of the $5.9 billion local education agencies have spent so far from the largest of the stimulus funds, more than a quarter went to a category for “other” expenses, according to the state.
“I’m just not sure anyone has a good handle on how this money was spent,” said John Affeldt, managing attorney at Public Advocates who works on educational equity issues. “There’s a lot of money that went into the system this year, and we continue to have a concern knowing how … effective it was.”
CalMatters spent three months examining school COVID relief spending across the state, reviewing thousands of pages of records obtained through more than 45 public records requests. That includes state spending reviews as well as accounting ledgers from two dozen school districts, including many of California’s biggest.
The records offer a unique glimpse at how school leaders grappled with the generational challenge of COVID in dollars and cents. Capistrano Unified, for instance, spent nearly $10 million on Chromebooks to make sure students could go virtual. Castro Valley Unified spent most of its stimulus money on payroll. El Centro Elementary School District spent $3.8 million to install shade structures for outdoor eating, school assemblies and teaching space.
The records reveal pandemic winners – companies that reaped millions as overwhelmed districts, suddenly flush with cash, started writing checks. Some are established firms well-positioned to fill massive orders for goods.
And some are new ventures launched by savvy entrepreneurs to capture some of the windfall. That includes a limited liability company formed in April 2020 and headquartered out of a UPS drop box in Los Alamitos that got a $52 million no-bid COVID testing contract in San Diego. And it includes a company – whose founder is described on its website as a former CIA counterterrorism officer – that morphed into a COVID-related school consultant and got a $12.7 million gig in San Bernardino, helping with COVID testing and contact tracing.
One chain of virtual charter schools gave $11 million – nearly two-thirds of its stimulus spending last year – to the publicly traded, for-profit company affiliated with the schools. A Southern California public school district spent $440,000 to hire an evangelical group for a program to help at-risk kids.
Other records reveal clear mistakes or misspending. The state told West Contra Costa Unified School District to shift nearly $800,000 in unrestricted funds to reimburse its stimulus money because the district failed to prove certain payroll costs were tied to the pandemic. Oakland Unified had to reimburse nearly $1 million in stimulus money for expenditures the state flagged as questionable.
Some districts refused to provide CalMatters records showing where their money is going. That includes San Francisco Unified, which got more than $186 million in federal stimulus funds.
Taken together, the reporting shows the differing decisions local leaders made trying to keep teachers, kids and their communities safe from a deadly disease while also addressing the learning loss and mental health impacts of prolonged social isolation. Some of those spending decisions were made behind closed doors and with little scrutiny, making it difficult for the public to determine whether districts used the money as effectively as possible or as lawmakers intended.
Put bluntly: Every dollar spent on buses during the lockdowns was a dollar not spent on counselors or tutors or teachers.
The stakes of such decisions could not be higher. The pandemic hurt California’s kids. More than half the students who took the statewide standardized test last year scored below grade level for English Language Arts. Nearly two-thirds of those students tested below grade level for math. Attendance is down. And federal data shows the number of students considering suicide is up.
Local educational agencies still have billions of dollars of COVID relief left to spend. If they don’t spend it by various deadlines, they may have to return it.
In a written statement to CalMatters, the state Department of Education said it is “encouraged by the impact that stimulus funding is having on the students and schools of California,” and that overseeing the funds is a top priority.
“The department has a robust monitoring system to ensure that (agencies’) expenditures are in accordance with all applicable federal and state requirements,” according to the statement.
Still, it might not be enough.
The state auditor’s office criticized oversight in an October report, saying the state is not using the limited data it receives to identify abnormal spending patterns and scrutinize local educational agencies.
“The state Department of Education has not taken a very active role in managing how the money is being spent,” said Kris Patel, supervising auditor who led the team behind the October report.
Patel said lack of oversight is particularly concerning as spending deadlines approach.
“If you’re trying to spend money at the very last minute, there’s always the high risk that you might misspend the money,” Patel said.
Money, money, money
After the pandemic shut down the world, lawmakers in Washington, D.C, passed six major pieces of stimulus legislation worth more than $5 trillion. The money was spread across myriad programs including business loans, funds to government agencies and checks directly to citizens.
California got yet another infusion of cash when higher-than-expected tax revenue created a massive budget surplus – more relief for beleaguered local governments.
The cash might have been a blessing for many state and local government agencies, but it was also an enormous challenge. Officials had massive amounts of money to address the urgent need – as the disease ravaged communities and the economy teetered – while also ensuring the funds weren’t wasted or even stolen.
Some deals blew up, resulting in recriminations and investigations.
While much has been written about emergency spending at the state level, including fraud targeting the state’s Employment Development Department, less is known about the money that poured into the nation’s schools.
The federal stimulus measures created the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund and the Governor’s Emergency Education Relief Fund – two large pots of money allocated to schools and state education departments in multiple rounds.
Ultimately, California public schools and charters got almost $29 billion in federal stimulus money. Billions more came from state programs lawmakers in Sacramento created.
Each program has its own spending requirements and categories – steering money toward things like instructional materials, school breakfast programs, purchasing educational technology and implementing public health protocols.
But some of the spending categories are broad. There’s money for principals “to address local needs,” and a catchall category described in state records as “other activities to continue school operations and employment of existing staff.”
California has about a thousand public school districts and hundreds of public charter schools that received COVID relief funds.
To get a cross-section of the stimulus spending, CalMatters asked more than 30 school districts for their accounting ledgers. Those districts included the 20 biggest and 10 random agencies across a geographically and demographically diverse swath of the state.
The records are a chronicle of the pandemic.
Take Garden Grove Unified. In August 2020, with the school year about to start virtually, the district spent $895,000 on Apple Computer equipment. In May 2021, planning to reopen school buildings to in-person learning, the district spent $275,000 with Air Filter Supply. This school year, with students and teachers back, the district has paid Maxim Healthcare Staffing Services more than $500,000 for temporary classroom staff to help special education students with learning recovery.
The ledgers also reveal unique local approaches to the pandemic. Castro Valley Unified, in the Bay Area, spent $14,250 in stimulus funds on Freedom Soul Media Education Initiatives, an equity consultant, and $93,000 on restorative justice consultants, records show.
Santa Ana Unified gave $393,000 to Angels Baseball LP to rent out the major league baseball stadium for last year’s high school graduation festivities.
In Riverside County, Corona-Norco Unified gave $440,000 to an evangelical group called Rescue a Generation run by a charismatic young pastor. The group runs a program for at-risk students in various schools.
“We are in a great season at Rescue a Generation,” according to the group’s website. “God has opened up many doors for us to be in schools providing life coaching for students with behavioral issues.”
In a phone interview, executive officer Jose Rodriguez acknowledged the nonprofit’s religious mission.
“We are a faith-based nonprofit organization that provides coaching, empowerment and the gospel to this generation,” Rodriguez said.
He said while the program is faith-based in morals and values, “we’re not trying to push an agenda.” He said the school program is secular and his team doesn’t discuss religion with students.
A Corona-Norco spokesperson said school staff oversee the program – which has helped reduce chronic absenteeism – to verify it follows school guidelines, and administrators reviewed content to ensure it doesn’t cross religious boundaries.
Local needs drive COVID relief spending
Michael Fine said he didn’t expect to see a one-size-fits-all approach to using the money. Fine is chief executive officer of the Fiscal Crisis and Management Assistance Team, a state-created organization that helps fiscally troubled school districts get their finances in order.
Some districts burned through the money quickly, in part to stave off budget cuts, Fine said. Others have been able to use some money for immediate needs while also planning long term.
“There’s a district in the Central Coast area that bought an ice cream truck with their money,” Fine said. “When I was told that I kind of went off.”
Fine declined to name the district. He said he talked to district leaders and learned they used the truck to drive around and give away ice cream to kids stuck at home during the early days of the pandemic.
He said he still has questions about the truck – like why they couldn’t just lease one, or whether they’ll eventually sell it and repurpose the funds. But he said he came to realize it was “a way to make a nontraditional connection with kids.”
“You can’t just look at the accounts payable ledger,” Fine said.
San Juan Unified in the Sacramento region used funds to hire an instructional aide for every classroom in its early grades and a new teacher at every school. Such hiring has been difficult because of a widespread teacher shortage, but the stimulus has also allowed the district to pay hiring bonuses, said Melissa Bassanelli, the district’s deputy superintendent of schools and student support.
In terms of creative spending, one school in the district, Northridge Elementary, spent $11,000 in discretionary relief money to build a Harry Potter-inspired house system in which students from different grades were grouped together in a friendly competition. They earned team points throughout the school year for things like demonstrating good sportsmanship and winning games during recess. The school bought pens, bracelets, masks and other branded supplies. The program featured games on Fridays and the reading of team scores on Mondays – the days students are most likely to be absent.
“We’re really strategic. You don’t know who the winning house is until you show up to class on Monday,” principal Petra Luhrsen said.
National School District in San Diego County used stimulus money to avoid planned cuts.
“Right before the pandemic hit, we proposed a budget reduction plan with some severe layoffs that were going to hit in March 2020,” Superintendent Leighangela Brady said. “Instead of hiring staff, we used the money to not lay off.”
Tech companies at the trough
One common area of spending was technology. Some districts spent heavily on laptops, hot spots and other hardware, as well as computer programs and support in order to make the switch to virtual schooling when buildings shut down.
Some educators and advocates question the amount of high-tech spending.
“Consulting companies and education service providers have been really aggressive in reaching out to districts to use these funds for new programs that they’re now creating to serve students,” said Amir Whitaker, senior policy counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California – calling it an “education industrial complex.”
Districts threw COVID relief money at a menu of technology firms offering services like remote tutoring, online assessments, cybersecurity and virtual lessons.
One popular ed tech company is Edgenuity, an Arizona-based firm that rebranded itself late last year as Imagine Edgenuity. The company offers online curriculum and coursework.
Sulphur Springs Union School District used Edgenuity last school year as a supplement to live instruction during distance learning.
“The program itself had some glitches. It was not very user friendly, unfortunately, so we used it for only one year,” said Jezelle Fullwood, assistant superintendent of educational services.
Clovis Unified is still using the company.
“We’ve used our Edgenuity for years,” said Susan Rutledge, Clovis’ assistant superintendent of business services. “Our Clovis Unified kids who are still online are using it. I know teachers have been happy with it.”
A spokesperson for Edgenuity’s parent corporation said the company served thousands of schools and districts during the pandemic and is currently operating in several hundred California districts.
“Education technology solutions not only helped millions of students through a tumultuous time but continues to assist teachers today with insights from real-time data to meet each student where they are and anticipate future learning needs to drive better learning outcomes,” wrote Tim DeClaire, Imagine Learning’s communications director, in an email to CalMatters.
Some advocates, like Nicole Gon Ochi, deputy managing attorney at Public Advocates, question whether there are better uses.
“How much are the districts using toward staffing – which is actually what the kids need – as opposed to more software programs and these digital things?” Ochi asked.
Pandemic winners
It wasn’t just technology companies that reaped massive paydays from districts flush with stimulus cash. Personal protective equipment vendors and businesses selling indoor air quality products got lots of deals. Firms touting COVID testing-related services also were in high demand.
In September 2021, San Diego Unified’s board ratified a no-bid contract with a firm called Responsive Partners LLC to run a COVID testing program. The district amended the contract a few months later and the agreement – which runs through July 30 – is now worth up to $52 million.
Responsive Partners formed during the pandemic in April 2020, records show. Its manager-members in the most recent filing with the Secretary of State’s Office are three other companies. Its address listed in regulatory filings and on the company’s website is a UPS drop box in Orange County.
The board ratified the initial agreement at a September board meeting with no discussion, a video of the meeting shows. The board approved the amended agreement in January, again, with no public discussion.
That a company with no history, no apparent physical location and murky ownership could get a massive no-bid testing contract with the second largest district in the state – all without any kind of public hearing – is emblematic of the large amounts of money flying out the door with limited oversight and little transparency.
School officials say the contract was worth it for a district that’s had a particularly aggressive testing strategy to keep schools open – offering far more tests and testing sites than many other districts.
“I can’t say enough good things about this company. We’ve had such great care from them,” said Susan Barndollar, San Diego Unified’s head of nursing.
CalMatters spoke to a number of people within the district who said the testing program has worked well. Multiple sources also talked about the staffing crunch at the time and how difficult it was finding health care workers.
“Responsive labs really looked at the staffing, and they had a very creative solution for it,” Barndollar said. “They had a huge pool of EMTs they could use in San Diego to do the testing. They had ambulances and vans to get their equipment around. Their prices were very competitive.”
The man who signed the contract for Responsive Partners was Ryan Merchant. According to his LinkedIn profile, he previously managed a Southern California ambulance company.
The managing member of Responsive Partners who filled out the most recent business filing with the Secretary of State’s Office is Brandon Hudler.
CalMatters attempted to speak with someone at the company. A man who answered the phone listed on Responsive Partners’ website identified himself as Merchant’s business partner but declined to provide his name. He said the company’s attorney – whom he declined to name – would call a CalMatters reporter to answer questions. No attorney called.
CalMatters also emailed a list of questions to Merchant at his Responsive Partners email listed in the San Diego Unified contract. He did not respond.
From fighting ISIS to fighting COVID
San Bernardino City Unified put its testing contract out to bid. They ultimately selected Applied Memetics, a Virginia-based firm founded by Daniel Gabriel, a former CIA counter-terrorism officer, according to his bio on the company’s website.
As recently as 2018, the company was described in Intelligence Online as “a key player in the Pentagon’s offensive to counter the influence of (the) Islamic State … on social and other media platforms.”
While the company’s website until recently still touted its national security work, the homepage described Applied Memetics as “America’s Leading Provider of K-12 & Community Health Solutions.”
The former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention director, Dr. Robert Redfield, is listed on the site as being a senior medical adviser.
San Bernardino City Unified paid the company $8.4 million in stimulus money through the first eight months of this fiscal year, records show. The entire agreement is worth up to $12.7 million, according to board documents.
Jens Dakin, a company vice president, said Applied Memetics’ core skills – strategic communications, research, data analysis – translate well to public health.
“It’s problem solving,” he said.
School and teachers union officials praised the company, which helped cover a shortage of nurses in the district.
Curious spending but little oversight
The California Virtual Academies, a chain of nine charter schools across the state, were probably better positioned than most to weather the pandemic. They didn’t need to worry about masking issues or social distancing requirements and didn’t need to suddenly figure out how to teach remotely. That’s because they were already teaching students exclusively online, even before the pandemic.
So how did the virtual academies use the $18 million in COVID relief money they spent last year? Nearly two-thirds of it – $11 million – went to K12 Management Inc., a subsidiary of the publicly traded corporation that helps run the schools, according to records the schools provided to CalMatters in response to a records request. And while some of that money is listed as going to pay for computers and peripheral equipment for students, $8.6 million went to “student course materials” or “online curriculum” from the corporation, the records show.
The charters and their relationship to the parent corporation – Stride Inc., which was formerly known as K12 Inc. – has been the source of past legal problems. In 2016, the state attorney general’s office announced a $168.5 million settlement with K12 Inc. over allegations the company and schools misled parents to boost enrollment and inflated attendance numbers.
The attorney general’s complaint also alleged that while the academies were purportedly independent, the company effectively ran the schools and pushed them into contracts that benefitted the corporation.
As part of the settlement, K-12 Inc. didn’t admit to wrongdoing. Then and now, the company has maintained the schools are independent from the corporation.
CalMatters spoke to several current or former staff at the virtual academies who worked during the pandemic. They said teachers and counselors were overwhelmed as enrollment grew and questioned why so much money went to the corporation.
CalMatters reached out to academy officials, including the head of schools and a local board member. A Stride Inc. spokesman, Mike Kraft, responded saying the company had been asked to answer questions on behalf of the schools. In an email, the company told CalMatters that the state didn’t provide additional funding to cover the increased enrollment and that the corporation provides online curriculum, education materials, a learning management system and “a wealth of other items” for students and teachers.
“The (California Virtual Academy) schools used stimulus funds in compliance with the law,” according to the Stride Inc. response.
Most districts and schools will face little scrutiny for their pandemic spending decisions, outside local administrative offices and boardrooms.
Yes, some funds do require a public spending plan. The state also required a special report on how districts are using their one-time funds.
“But it was a very, very general document,” said Victor Leung, director of education equity for the ACLU of Southern California. “It was extremely unclear how those districts spent the money.”
Such documents also aren’t always easy for parents to find on district websites.
The state Education Department does review a selection of districts annually as part of the Federal Program Monitoring process. During such reviews, state evaluators look to make sure district policies are up to date and scrutinize a sampling of expenditures to make sure they’re appropriate.
Last fiscal year, the department reviewed stimulus spending at 15 local educational agencies – less than a percent of the roughly 1,700 agencies that got stimulus funds. This year the department is reviewing 50.
Those reviews turned up numerous red flags. Six of the 15 reviews from last year had so-called “findings” while 19 of the 37 so far this year flagged potential problems. The issues range from poor recordkeeping, to outdated conflict-of-interest policies, to outright misspending.
The state auditor mentioned the issue in its October report on school stimulus spending.
“The small number of (local educational agencies) that Education monitored is concerning given that it identified significant issues related to unsupported or unallowable expenditures at some of the 15 … that it selected,” according to the auditor’s report.
Oakland Unified had to shift nearly $1 million in funds to reimburse stimulus money it apparently misspent on things like commercial trucks and a communication system, records show.
Parlier Unified, in Fresno County, was ordered to return $733,000 in relief funds to the state, according to a copy of the notification of findings from November. A state spokeswoman, Maria Clayton, told CalMatters the Education Department is working with the district to see if there’s a way the schools can keep the funds and use them for something else that is allowed.
Some districts were able to resolve findings simply by providing more information to the state.
The state Education Department, for example, last year ordered the Sacramento-based charter school St. HOPE Public School 7 to justify much of its stimulus spending. Among the questioned costs was $11,000 the school spent on attorneys fees, records show.
In response to the findings, St. HOPE provided the state with accounting ledgers, invoices, written descriptions of spending and other records. The material showed, for example, the attorneys fees were for negotiations with the teachers’ union regarding the return to school and therefore justified.
CalMatters visited St. HOPE on a recent school day. In a first grade classroom, a group of students sat at a semi-circle table reading the time as a teacher moved the hands of a Frisbee-sized clock. Other students were busy at work on Chromebooks, which the school purchased using federal relief funds.
The school – whose students are mostly Black and Latino, and low-income – reopened for optional in-person instruction in November 2020, well before most public schools. Charter school officials say it was the stimulus money that enabled them to afford the face masks and cleaning supplies to keep serving students.
“We had a huge amount of students return to the physical learning environment because distance learning is challenging,” said Kari Wehrly, superintendent of St. HOPE Public Schools. “They were missing out on a lot of the structures and supports.”
Another district – Hayward Unified, dinged by state monitors over stimulus spending in a review last year — has been able to resolve most of its findings without losing money. State reviewers identified six issues at the school in fiscal year 2020-21.
Still, it’s taken a long time for the district to prove to the state it didn’t mishandle money. Districts are supposed to resolve findings within 45 days. As of this month, it’s been more than a year, and one finding remains outstanding.
Hayward’s Assistant Superintendent of Business Services, Allan Garde, wrote in an email to CalMatters that the district has been busy trying to keep schools open and running, and expected to resolve the last of the outstanding issues by the end of this month.
The slow pace of resolution hints at the limits of state authority.
In emails to her boss from January, the state monitor handling the Hayward review asked about sending a threatening-sounding letter to the district and complained about her inability to close the case.
“I have no teeth when it comes to resolving outstanding items,” she wrote, according to emails provided to CalMatters in response to a public records request.
Her boss wrote back: “I worry about making any empty threats as it could undermine things.”

Leeds United have kicked their summer transfer window off in busy fashion with the additions of two new players. Brenden Aaronson and Rasmus Kristensen have both made the switch from Red Bull Salzburg as Victor Orta and Jesse Marsch get to work quickly on improving the squad.
But there is still plenty of work to be done as far as Leeds are concerned, both in terms of incomings and outgoings. A midfielder is still high on the list of priorities, while a striker and back-up goalkeeper are also positions that could require strengthening.
Perhaps much of Leeds ’ other business, though, will depend on whether they are able to keep both Kalvin Phillips and Raphinha at the club. Phillips is reportedly Manchester City’s number one midfield target this summer, while Raphinha has been linked with Barcelona, Liverpool and Arsenal.
READ MORE: Leeds United news: Pundit praises Kristensen signing as Aaronson reveals his excitement
So with several twists and turns in the window still to come, here is a look at the best and worst-case scenarios in terms of a starting XI, that Marsch could have at his disposal come the season opener in August.
Best-case (4-2-3-1): Meslier; Kristensen, Koch, Cooper, Firpo; Phillips, Roca; Raphinha, Aaronson, Harrison; Bamford
While on paper this looks like only three new signings this summer, the best-case scenario of the window would also mean making additions that beef up the squad. The likes of Junior Adamu and Takumi Minamino have both been linked and should they come in, they would provide strong bench options, with the potential of pushing into the starting XI.
On top of Kristensen and Aaronson coming in, Bayern Munich’s Marc Roca is the other new signing in this line-up. His ability on the ball, coupled with Phillips’ intensity off it, could form a very tidy partnership at the heart of midfield.
Obviously that would depend on Leeds fending off interest for Phillips. Keeping both him and Raphinha would be a significant signal of Leeds’ ambitions this season, though it will undoubtedly be a tough ask.
Worst-case (4-2-3-1): Meslier; Kristensen, Koch, Cooper, Firpo; Klich, Forshaw; James, Aaronson, Harrison; Bamford
No more signings on top of the two they have already brought in would represent a disastrous window for Leeds. It would mean they have failed to address their issues in midfield and again leave them short in terms of their squad depth.
What would make matters even worse is if both Phillips and Raphinha were both to depart without anyone coming into replace them. It is difficult to imagine any scenario where this happens given Leeds’ proactive start to the window, but if it did, another season of struggles would be on the cards. | https://www.leeds-live.co.uk/sport/leeds-united/leeds-uniteds-best-worst-case-24201043 | 2022-06-12T05:33:47Z | https://www.leeds-live.co.uk/sport/leeds-united/leeds-uniteds-best-worst-case-24201043 | false | 1 |
CEO of Binance Changpeng Zhao says that his company initially invested $3 million in the much-hyped Terra LUNA/USD project in 2018. In return, Binance received around 50 million LUNA.
But in a recent Twitter post, he indicated that Binance ultimately lost $1.6 billion in its Terra investment.
CZ: We invested in Terra as a part of a Binance Labs investment in 2018, and that was a $3 million investment. We just kept the coins that we got, 50 million Luna. Theoretically we lost like $1.6 billion of investment at the top, and it’s okay.
— Wu Blockchain (@WuBlockchain) June 3, 2022
Zhao's tweet comes amid rumors of Binance potentially profiting from the Terra ecosystem's demise. There are also questions about whether the Binance CEO communicated with Terra co-founder Do Kwon during the mega crypto crisis.
Binance was also criticized after announcing support for Terra 2.0, the new LUNA currency.
In a recent interview, Zhao said that there were mistakes in the design of TerraUSD UST/USD and Terra, which resulted in the collapse of the Terra ecosystem.

While discussing Terraform Labs and its chief Kwon, Zhao said that he never spoke to Kwon directly, not even to this day.
"During the investment stage, I did not speak to him. I never even had a Zoom call with him. I've never met him in person. Our investment team did all the talking with him. We have a very quick internal review process, which I'm part of, but I didn't have to talk to him. Throughout this incident, our team talked to him. Unfortunately, he was quite slow in responding," he said.
Talking about Terra 2.0 and the revival plan, Zhao said, "On the revival plan by Do Kwon, I voiced concerns or disagreements with some of the taken approaches."
"I think they took a snapshot at a very early date. That's kind of reversing a lot of the transactions on the blockchain, and also reversing many of the trades that were done after the crash," he added.

Daryl Mitchell hit a sublime 190 as New Zealand amassed 553 before England started to fight back on a free-scoring second day of the second Test at Trent Bridge.
Taking advantage of a docile pitch and lacklustre England bowling, Mitchell pummelled his way to his highest Test score.
Tom Blundell joined the run spree with 106 in a 236-run fifth wicket partnership with Mitchell.
New Zealand Test debutant Michael Bracewell scoring a brisk 49 as New Zealand took control in their bid to level the three-Test series after losing the opener at Lord’s by five wickets.
After quickly losing Zak Crawley in their reply, England recovered impressively as Ollie Pope (51 not out) and Alex Lees (34 not out) led them to 90-1 at the close.
It was Mitchell’s day as the journeyman with little Test pedigree, until this series, continued to seize his chance.
Six years ago, Mitchell had a season playing for Blackpool in the Northern Premier League and scored just two centuries.
The 31-year-old batsman arrived in England with just one Test hundred to his name since his 2019 debut, but now he has three following his 108 at Lord’s.
Mitchell’s latest century came in 318 balls, including 23 fours and four sixes, with England dropping him for the second time in the match just after he reached his ton.
“It was very rewarding to get the individual achievement but also to help the boys out,” Mitchell said.
“It’s cool to get some scores. That is the wonder of Test cricket, when you get a few chances you have to make the most of it.”
New Zealand showed why they are the Test world champions, ruthlessly pressing home their advantage after scoring 318-4 on Friday.
“It was good to see the guys having a good time out there and scoring runs after a couple of tough days. We hope for a big first innings score,” England batting coach Marcus Trescothick said.
- Mitchell masterclass -
Mitchell, who scored 81 on Friday after being dropped by Joe Root on three, moved within touching distance of his ton after pulling a short James Anderson delivery for a crunching four.
He brought up his century with a fortuitous edge off Matthew Potts.
If that was an ungainly way to reach the hundred, it was out of character with the rest of Mitchell’s classy innings.
As he did on Friday, Mitchell went on the offensive against spinner Jack Leach but, on 104, he rode his luck with a lofty blow that was dropped by Potts as it trickled to the boundary.
Blundell nudged a single off Leach to reach his third Test century from 191 balls, but he was dismissed when he drove Leach to Stokes at mid-off.
Bracewell showed no signs of stage fright as he repeatedly battered Potts to the boundary before rain provided a merciful break for England.
When play resumed, Anderson induced an edge from Bracewell and Root made the catch, ending the 91-run sixth wicket partnership.
That exposed the New Zealand tail and Stuart Broad dismissed Kyle Jamieson (14) and Tim Southee (4) in the same over.
Trent Boult added some lusty blows in a pesky last-wicket stand of 33 before Mitchell was caught behind off Potts.
New Zealand’s mammoth total was their highest ever score in England, beating their 551-9 declared in 1973.
After watching New Zealand bat for nearly two days, Crawley lasted just six balls.
Boult produced a beautiful piece of seam bowling that left Crawley in two minds as it clipped the edge and was caught behind by Blundell to leave England 6-1.
The fielding woes that tormented England haunted New Zealand as well when Lees, on 12, was dropped in the slips by Mitchell off Southee.

Mandi, June 11
Jal Shakti Minister Mahender Singh Thakur inaugurated a three-day tourism festival at Janjehli in the Seraj Assembly segment in the district today.
On the first day, the main attraction of the festival were the tableaux made by various mahila mandals.
Most these represented the art and culture of the area while others were on themes such as drugs and their ill-effects. A rangoli prepared by schoolchildren was an added attraction. Students of Horticulture College gave the message of environmental protection while the Health Department spread awareness regarding the Covid pandemic.
The minister, while addressing the gathering, said that Rs 2,250 crore was being spent on the development and expansion of tourism activities in the state. Under various projects, tourism infrastructure would be strengthened and steps for tourism promotion would also be taken, he added.
“To connect unexplored tourist places in the state, the government is developing tourism activities under the Nai Raahein, Nai Manzileen scheme. The state has immense potential to grow in the field of tourism,” he said.
The minister said that the work was underway to connect the state with a rail network. Tourism activities would also get a boost with the completion of the proposed airport in Mandi. He added, “About Rs 500 crore has been spent to provide pure drinking water to every household in the Seraj Assembly constituency. Besides, eight projects worth about Rs 60 crore have also been approved to provide irrigation facilities to the farmers of area.”

The world economy will pay a “hefty price” for the war in Ukraine encompassing weaker growth, stronger inflation and potentially long-lasting damage to supply chains, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development said.
The OECD slashed its outlook for global growth this year to 3% from the 4.5% it predicted in December and doubled its inflation projection to nearly 9% for its 38 member countries, according to forecasts released on Wednesday in Paris. In 2023, it expects growth to slow to 2.8%.
The price of war could be “even higher,” it warned, describing a long list of risks ranging from an abrupt cut-off of Russian supply in Europe to vulnerabilities on financial markets from high debt and elevated asset prices.
“There have been several significant changes in the global economic environment in recent months, including the worldwide spread of the Omicron variant of COVID and the greater-than-expected persistence of inflationary pressures,” the organization said in its economic outlook. “The single greatest change, however, is the economic impact of the war in Ukraine.”
The gloomy assessment, which echoes a similar warning from the World Bank, indicates a deeper and broader economic fallout from Russia’s invasion that will make it harder to set the right fiscal and monetary policies. This is the first detailed view from the OECD, which didn’t issue full forecasts in April because of the prevailing uncertainty.
The early effects of surging prices have already forced central banks to tighten monetary policy, with the U.S. Federal Reserve for example having just raised interest rates at a quickened pace of 50 basis points last month. Meanwhile governments are rethinking spending plans as they attempt to shelter households.
While the OECD said it’s warranted for all monetary authorities to pare back stimulus, it urged caution particularly in the euro area, where surging prices mainly reflect supply pressures.
“Central banks will have to conduct a delicate balancing act between keeping inflation under control and maintaining the post-pandemic economic rebound, especially where the recovery is not yet complete,” the organization said.
The OECD observed that inflation is hitting living standards and reducing consumer spending across the globe, and business are becoming less optimistic about future production. Crucially, that hit to confidence is deterring investment, which in turn threatens to hurt supply “for years to come,” it said.
Still, the organization is cautious about whether the global economy is on the brink of stagflation despite similarities with the oil shock of the 1970s.
Compared to that time, major economies are less energy intensive, central banks have more robust frameworks and independence, and consumers have a stock of excess savings leftover from the COVID pandemic, it said.
“Nonetheless, there are clear risks that growth could slow more sharply than expected and inflationary pressures could intensify further,” the OECD said.
Here are further highlights from the report:
— Europe is one of the regions most at risk should the war in Ukraine drag on or escalate, as its economies are struggling to wean themselves off Russian fuel.
— Low-income economies are also at risk due to surging prices of basic food and energy
— Sharp increases in rates could slow growth more than expected.
— China’s COVID Zero policy continues to weigh on the global outlook.
Here are some of the OECD’s recommendations:
— More aid and global cooperation on logistics to avert a food crisis.
— Targeted government support for households hardest hit by rising cost of living.
— Signals from central banks they won’t allow inflation to spread.
— U.S. monetary policy can tighten faster as prices driven by over-buoyant demand.
— More solidarity in Europe on defense and energy spending.
— Keep trade open to ensure diverse value chains for the green transition. | https://www.nny360.com/news/shock-of-war-threatens-lasting-consequences-on-global-economy/article_13aabe45-7fdf-58b8-8e36-e994b26b73e4.html | 2022-06-12T05:48:17Z | https://www.nny360.com/news/shock-of-war-threatens-lasting-consequences-on-global-economy/article_13aabe45-7fdf-58b8-8e36-e994b26b73e4.html | false | 2 |
KEPALA BATAS, June 12 ― Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Seri Reezal Merican Naina Merican has asked the Penang government to provide information on the industrial sector to be developed at the high technology-based industrial area on a 339-hectare site at Jalan Tun Hamdan Sheikh Tahir, here.
“We want an industry based on high technology because we do not want to depend on unskilled workers. Most of the (unskilled) workers are to be placed in centralised labour quarters (CLQ) in the industrial area and it is easy to understand, (there will be) influx of workers from outside, namely foreigners.
“I remain with the stance of not accepting the CLQ and have even stated the matter (disagreement) verbally to the Mayor (of Penang City Council) and the project developer because the area (Jalan Tun Hamdan Sheikh Tahir) is an old residential settlement and traditional village, so it is very inappropriate (for the construction of CLQ)," he told reporters after launching the eSports Youth Cabin here last night.
Reezal Merican said the ministry would give emphasis to the industry to be developed in the industrial area and would not allow any ‘backyard industry’ as it could open the door to the influx of foreigners there.
He said the relevant parties should also carry out a social impact assessment first so that in the end the goal of carrying out the project should be understood and agreed by the residents in the affected areas as well as the people as a whole.
Previously, residents from more than 10 housing estates near the project held a peaceful protest against the proposed construction of the CLQ in the area, which would result in the placement of thousands of foreign workers, and proposed that the construction be shifted to the Ara Kuda area in Tasek Gelugor, which is not too far away. ― Bernama | https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/2022/06/12/govt-has-requested-more-info-on-penang-high-tech-industrial-area-says-housing-minister/11913 | 2022-06-12T05:54:15Z | https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/2022/06/12/govt-has-requested-more-info-on-penang-high-tech-industrial-area-says-housing-minister/11913 | false | 1 |

SOUTH PORTLAND – Rev. Harold D. Moreshead, 92, died June 6, 2022 at St. Joseph’s Rehabilitation in Portland.
Born in Meriden, Conn. on August 20, 1929, he was the son of the late John and Clara (Malloy) Moreshead. Early in the Depression, the Moreshead family returned to Portland where Fr. Moreshead grew up on May Street with his two siblings, parents, aunts and uncles, and his beloved grandmother. He attended St. Dominic’s Church.
In 1947, Fr. Moreshead graduated from Cheverus High School. He studied philosophy at St. Francis Xavier College in Nova Scotia before entering the seminary at St. Paul’s in Ottawa. On June 4, 1955, Fr. Moreshead was ordained at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception by the Most Rev. Daniel J. Feeney. He would be a priest of the diocese of Portland for 67 years.
Fr. Moreshead’s first summer was spent as a curate at St. John the Evangelist Church in South Portland, and that August was assigned as an assistant at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church in Fairfield until 1959. To the delight of his family, Fr. Moreshead returned to Portland where he was assistant at St. Joseph’s Church for eight years (1959-1967). Fr. Moreshead remained in the Portland area for several years, serving as an assistant in the Cathedral (1967-1969) and as pastor of St. Christopher’s Parish on Peaks Island (1969-1972), with a brief stint in between as temporary administrator of St. Matthew’s Parish in Limerick (1969).
In 1972, Fr.

In 1979, Fr. Moreshead began his longest assignment at St. Edmund’s Parish Westbrook (1979-1991), where he was pastor for twelve years. Finally, in 1991, Fr. Moreshead moved to Mechanic Falls where he served as pastor of Our Lady of Ransom until his retirement from active ministry in 1999. In retirement, Fr. Moreshead continued to be active, offering Mass for the Good Shepherd Sisters in Biddeford, for the Sisters of Mercy in Portland, at the Deering Pavilion, and filling in for Masses and funerals as needed.
In the course of his priesthood, Fr. Moreshead served as a Chaplain for the Regional Christian Family Movement, volunteered for the Marriage Counseling Program, served on the Committee for Continuing Education of Priests, and served as the Chaplain of the Marian Council #11493, K of C, Mechanic Falls.
Parishioners will remember Fr. Moreshead’s deep faith and generosity. His family will remember the many trips to the lake and the backyard football games. Everyone who knew him will remember his loving nature and quick wit. He will be deeply missed.

World Day Against Child Labour: Call for establishment of residential schools, enhanced budgetary allocation
New Delhi, Jun: The World Day Against Child Labour is an International Labour Organization (ILO)-sanctioned holiday first launched in 2002 aiming to raise awareness and activism to prevent child labour. It was spurred by ratifications of ILO Convention No. 138 on the minimum age for employment and ILO Convention No. 182 on the worst forms of child labour.
On this occasion, a call has been made for a special policy for the rescue and rehabilitation of child labourers, the establishment of residential schools for them and enhanced budgetary allocation for child welfare schemes.
A group of youth leaders, some of whom had survived tumultuous childhood as forced child labourers, were felicitated at an event - National Consultation on the Eradication of Child Labour by 2025 - organised by Bachpan Bachao Andolan (BBA) and Kailash Satyarthi Children's Foundation (KSCF) in the national capital on Friday.
These youth leaders demanded a special scheme for the rescue and rehabilitation of child labourers. They sought the establishment of residential schools for rescued children and enhanced budgetary allocation for child welfare schemes, especially for child labourers.
For an effective rescue and rehabilitation policy, they urged the government to declare all 749 districts in India under the National Child Labour Project Scheme (NCLPS) and initiate a technology-based monitoring scheme for its effective implementation.
Among those who were felicitated were Surjeet Lodhi, 18, from Vidisha district in Madhya Pradesh. Lodhi has helped scores of children in his village get access to education.
For his efforts to bring about a positive change, he was conferred the prestigious Diana Award in 2021. His crusade against alcohol consumption and spreading awareness for education has made him an inspiration for other children.
"The existing law against child labour should be effectively implemented. We also request the government to pass the anti-trafficking bill as most of the children are trafficked for forced labour," he said.
Five of the felicitated youth leaders were from Rajasthan. Three of them - Amar Lal, Tara Banjara and Rajesh Jatav - recently represented India in the International Labour Organisation's (ILO) fifth global conference on the elimination of child labour in Durban.
Tara Banjara, 17, from Nimdi village in Alwar district spent her childhood as a road construction worker. At present, she is pursuing her bachelor's degree and aspires to be a police officer.
Rajesh Jatav, 21, hails from Akbarpur village in Bharatpur district. Rajesh was rescued from a brick kiln when he was eight and brought to Bal Ashram - a rehabilitation and training centre of BBA at Viratnagar. At present, he is pursuing a bachelor's degree in science at Delhi University.
Two girls from the state - Lalita Duhariya, 17, and 19-year-old Payal Jangid - are notable for their contributions to bringing social transformation. "I make efforts to unite the children of my village. Children must come together and raise their voices against all forms of injustice. Education is the greatest tool of empowerment for us," Jangid said.
Three from Jharkhand who were felicitated were Neeraj Murmu, 22, Champa Kumari, 16, and Radha Kumari 17. These youth leaders have sparked the movement of social change in their state and are enduring examples of grit, strength and determination.
Champa Kumari was rescued from a mica mine by BBA activists at the age of 12 years. Over the years, she has fought against child marriage and worked relentlessly to make her district free from child labour. "I will continue to fight against child labour and the social evil of child marriage. It is a tough fight, but worth fighting for," she said.
Radha Kumari from Madhuban panchayat in Koderma has been designated as the district's brand ambassador against child marriage for her dogged efforts in preventing child marriages and empowering girls.
"To stop child marriages completely, we need to change the prevailing notions and perceptions of our society, especially towards girl children," she said.
Appreciating the efforts of these change-makers, Sanjay Chander, Director General (DG) of the Railway Protection Force (RPF), felicitated them.
"The fight against child labour cannot be won in a single day. It is an ongoing battle having socio-economic, legal and political repercussions. However, the stories of these children give us hope and strengthen our resolve to fight the menace of child labour," he said.

The number of calls for an ambulance in England have almost doubled since 2010, with warnings of record pressures on the NHS that are seeing A&E patients stuck in corridors and many paramedics quitting the job.
Ambulance calls have risen by 10 times more than the number of ambulance workers, according to a new analysis of NHS data. An increase in people seeking emergency treatment, GPs unable to cope with demand and cuts to preventive care are all being blamed for the figures.
The analysis, carried out by the GMB union, found that there were 7.9m calls in 2010-11. By 2021-22, however, the number had risen to 14m, an increase of 77%. Over the same period, the number of ambulance workers has risen by just 7%, heaping more pressure on staff.
While the figures represent all calls for an ambulance, some of which go unanswered and do not lead to a vehicle being sent, they reveal the increasing pressures that have led to claims that patient safety is being put at risk by ambulance waiting times. There has been a significant increase in the number of the most serious safety incidents logged by paramedics in England over the past year.
Ambulance workers will hold a demonstration on Sunday outside the GMB’s annual congress, which begins in Harrogate. There have been repeated warnings that cuts in social care are also having knock-on impacts, with emergency services often picking up the slack and dealing with patients in crisis.
The average response time for serious ambulance calls was 51 minutes in April 2022 compared with 20 minutes a year before. Meanwhile the GMB said more than 1,000 ambulance workers have left since 2018 to seek a better work-life balance, better pay or to take early retirement.
Paul, a paramedic and GMB deputy branch secretary, said he had recently seen a crew waiting almost 10 hours between arriving at hospital and transferring a patient to hospital care. “They arrived at the hospital at 20.31,” he said. “They then cleared from the hospital at 05.48 in the morning. The impact of the lack of resources is affecting the ambulance service.
“We are also seeing people become aggressive to the ambulance crew, because they’ve waited hours upon hours in an ambulance.
“We used to have crew we called ‘lifers’ – you join and you’re there for the rest of your life until you retire. But now we are seeing people do two or three years and then going to better jobs – maybe a GP practice or become a university lecturer. There are no nights, no weekends; you’re in a nice, clean environment.”
It comes after a nurse was filmed warning patients at an overcrowded A&E department that they could wait up to 13 hours to see a doctor.
Rachel Harrison, GMB national officer, said ambulance workers had faced “more than a decade of cuts”. She said: “It’s no wonder they are leaving in droves while the service itself is teetering on the brink of collapse. The explosion in demand is due to savage cuts to essential services since 2010.
“Cuts to preventive and community care result in higher demand on emergency services, including in mental health. This means that patients are entering the system later and with more complex symptoms. Some people also used hospital care less during the pandemic and didn’t get essential treatment, and this has led to significant pent-up demand that is falling on ambulance workers.
“Our members face unbelievable stress and even abuse while they do their best to administer care and save lives. We need urgent investment across the health and care services, otherwise we risk an unprecedented crisis.”
A Department of Health and Social Care spokesperson said they recognised the pressures staff were under, with ambulance workers at the sharp end. “Response times are affected by various factors, so we’re taking a whole-system approach,” they said.
“The NHS has allocated £150m of additional system funding to address pressure on ambulance services, and we are tackling the Covid backlog by setting up surgical hubs and community diagnostic centres – over 90 of which are already open and have delivered over a million additional checks.
“NHS staff received a 3% pay rise last year, increasing nurses’ pay by about £1,000 on average despite a public sector pay freeze, and we are giving NHS workers another pay rise this year.” | https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/jun/12/paramedics-are-leaving-in-droves-as-ambulance-callouts-almost-double | 2022-06-12T06:34:59Z | https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/jun/12/paramedics-are-leaving-in-droves-as-ambulance-callouts-almost-double | false | 2 |

2 kids accused of stealing 22 guns from firearms store
CAPE CORAL, Fla. (WINK) - Police say two brothers, ages 14 and 11, have been arrested for stealing nearly two dozen guns and ammunition from a Florida firearms dealer.
The two brothers face many charges, including 22 counts of grand theft of a firearm after Cape Coral Police say they broke into the Guns 4 Less store. They say the two initially tried to cut power to the building.
“How did these young boys learn to even attempt to cut the power to a building? Most people aren’t going to know that,” said WINK News Safety and Security Specialist Rich Kolko.
Once inside, investigators say the suspects ransacked the store, smashing display cases and stealing 22 guns, ammo and other items.
The stolen items were later recovered, but police say the investigation is far from over.
“The repercussions of these young boys having that many weapons with ammunition, it’s hard to even measure at this point,” Kolko said. “What were they going to do with these weapons at the end of the day?”
Investigators say the 14-year-old was already on probation for another crime. It stems from an incident last year at a Lee County gas station, where the teen allegedly threatened a cashier with a hammer as he and another boy stole e-cigarettes.
According to police, the 14-year-old was also responsible for an incident last year, where he and another boy smashed the front door of a Lee County pawn shop. They are now looking into whether the boys are connected to other burglaries in the area.
“There’s going to have to be some intervention here, whether it’s from a family member, from law enforcement, from the state to get them off this track,” Kolko said.
The suspects appeared in court Thursday morning. A formal arraignment has been set for July 5.
Both are forbidden from having unsupervised contact with each other and will be held in secure detention for the next 21 days.

Tesla Inc TSLA CEO Elon Musk said on Sunday that the electric vehicle maker's Full Self-driving (FSD) Beta version 10.13 would enable its cars to navigate routes where there are no maps available.
What Happened: The billionaire entrepreneur said FSD Beta 10.12.2 is expanding to 100,000 cars and that the 10.13 version will begin to handle roads with “no map data at all.”
The 10.13 version will also be able to smooth out intersection control, especially long lefts, Musk wrote in a tweet.
“Last point is a big deal. Within a few months, FSD should be able to drive to a GPS point with zero map data,” Musk wrote in the tweet.
Also, FSD Beta 10.12.2 now expanding to 100k cars.
10.13 smooths out intersection control, especially long lefts, and starts to handle roads with no map data at all.
Last point is a big deal. Within a few months, FSD should be able to drive to a GPS point with zero map data. — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 4, 2022
Why It Matters: Tesla has been significantly ramping up its beta program offering to customers. The EV maker had in April said it had rolled out its full self-driving beta software program to over 100,000 customers in the United States.
The Musk-led company first started testing out the FSD beta in late 2020 among a select group of customers known as beta testers.
See Also: Elon Musk Pushes Back Tesla Level 4 Self-Driving Target Yet Again
Musk recently said he believes Tesla is likely to actualize the FSD Level-4 system capabilities next year, pushing back the timeline yet again.
A Level-4 system implies the vehicle can handle all aspects of driving without human intervention. Tesla is currently at Level 2.
Price Action: Tesla closed 9.2% lower at $703.55 on Friday.

LONDON — The family of a British man condemned to death for fighting for Ukraine said it is devastated by the outcome of what it termed a "show trial" and called Saturday for him to be released and accorded the treatment an international human rights convention guarantees prisoners of war.
A court in the separatist-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic of Ukraine convicted two British fighters and one Moroccan on Thursday of seeking the violent overthrow of power, an offense punishable by death in the eastern territory controlled by Moscow-backed rebels.
The men were also convicted of mercenary activities and terrorism.
"Our whole family is devastated and saddened at the outcome of the illegal show trial," the family of one of the British men, Shaun Pinner, said.
A statement issued by Britain's Foreign Office on behalf of Pinner's family said the 48-year-old had been a resident of Ukraine for four years.
"We sincerely hope that all parties will cooperate urgently to ensure the safe release or exchange of Shaun. Our family, including his son and Ukrainian wife, love and miss him so much and our hearts go out to all the families involved in this awful situation," the statement said.
The family also described Pinner as a proud "contracted serving marine in the 36th Brigade," a Ukrainian naval infantry division that helped defend the besieged southern port city of Mariupol before it was captured by Russian forces.
As a member of the brigade, Pinner "should be accorded all the rights of a prisoner of war according to the Geneva Convention and including full independent legal representation," the family said.
Ukraine and the West have denounced the proceedings in the unrecognized Donetsk republic as a sham and a violation of the rules of war.
The pro-Russia separatists said Saturday they were preparing to also try a South Korean citizen who had fought on the side of Ukraine, but that the man had escaped. They said they still wanted to have him tried in South Korea, but it was not clear how that could happen.
Ukraine has called on foreigners to join their resistance to Russia's invasion, and some have answered that call, though not all have been accepted in Ukraine's foreign legion.
The Czech Republic's foreign minister, Jan Lipavsky, said Saturday that a Czech citizen died in the Donetsk region in Ukraine — the first reported Czech fatality among the foreign volunteers.

Although the land area is only 148 square miles (384 km2), the Isle of Wight, an island off England, is one of the richest dinosaur sites in Europe. In fact, more than 20 species of dinosaurs have been found there since the beginning[{” attribute=””>Cretaceous Period, including some which were first identified on the island.
Spinosaurids is a family of carnivorous theropod dinosaurs that originated in the Jurassic period and came to prominence during the Cretaceous period. Paleontologists have found spinosaurid fossils in many locations around the world, including Europe, Asia, Africa, South America, and Australia.
Research led by paleontologists at the University of Southampton has identified the remains of one of Europe’s largest ever land-based hunters: a dinosaur that measured over 10m long and lived around 125 million years ago.
Several prehistoric bones, uncovered on the Isle of Wight, on the south coast of England, and housed at Dinosaur Isle Museum in Sandown, belonged to a type of two-legged, crocodile-faced predatory dinosaur known as spinosaurids. Dubbed the ‘White Rock spinosaurid’ – after the geological layer in which it was found – it was a predator of impressive proportions.
“This was a huge animal, exceeding 10 m in length and probably several tonnes in weight. Judging from some of the dimensions, it appears to represent one of the largest predatory dinosaur ever found in Europe – maybe even the biggest yet known,” said PhD student Chris Barker, who led the study. “It’s a shame it’s only known from a small amount of material, but these are enough to show it was an immense creature.”
The discovery follows previous work on spinosaurids by the University of Southampton team, which published a study on the discovery of two new species in 2021.
The bones of the ‘White Rock spinosaurid’, which include huge pelvic and tail vertebrae, amongst other pieces, were discovered near Compton Chine, on the southwest coast of the Isle of Wight. The Cretaceous rocks are famous for their dinosaurs, but little appreciated is the fact that the Island’s fossil record preserves dinosaurs from more than one section of history – and some of those sections, even today, are poorly known.
“Unusually, this specimen eroded out of the Vectis Formation, which is notoriously poor in dinosaur fossils,” said corresponding author Dr. Neil Gostling, who teaches evolution and palaeobiology at the University of Southampton. “It’s likely to be the youngest spinosaur material yet known from the UK.”
The 125 million-year-old Vectis Formation preserves the beginning of a period of rising sea levels, where the ‘White Rock spinosaurid’ stalked lagoonal waters and sandflats in search of food.
“Because it’s only known from fragments at the moment, we haven’t given it a formal scientific name,” said co-author Darren Naish. He added: “We hope that additional remains will turn up in time.
“This new animal bolsters our previous argument – published last year – that spinosaurid dinosaurs originated and diversified in western Europe before becoming more widespread.”
Marks on the bone also showed how, even after death, the body of this giant probably supported a range of scavengers and decomposers.
“Most of these amazing fossils were found by Nick Chase, one of Britain’s most skilled dinosaur hunters, who sadly died just before the Covid epidemic,” said co-author Jeremy Lockwood, a PhD student at the University of Portsmouth and Natural History Museum. “I was searching for remains of this dinosaur with Nick and found a lump of pelvis with tunnels bored into it, each about the size of my index finger. We think they were caused by bone-eating larvae of a type of scavenging beetle. It’s an interesting thought that this giant killer wound up becoming a meal for a host of insects.”
The researchers hope to generate thin sections of the material to look at the microscopic internal properties of the bones in the near future, which may provide information about its growth rate and possible age.
For more on this discovery, see Europe’s Largest Land Predator Discovered on the Isle of Wight.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has a special team of bodyguards who collect his poop and urine and deliver them back to Moscow in a special carrier. The secret service guards with the Russian Federal Guard Service are reported to accompany Putin during his trips to the washroom. According to Paris Match, this bizarre practice is being done to conceal information about Putin’s health and possible illnesses. The speculations about it being true emerged during Putin’s visit to France in 2017. Then, in 2019, Putin visited Saudi Arabia, where a similar phenomenon was observed.
A video that surfaced online, shortly after his visit, shows Putin accompanied by six guards as he is using the lavatory. In the video, two guards come out the door, followed by another guard who is carrying the special suitcase. Then comes Putin, backed by two more guards.
Take a look:
It is also reported that the people at the Russian embassy were strictly directed by the FSO to maintain extreme secrecy about the matter. While the practice was done so that Putin leaves no traces and everything is transported to “motherland" along with him, the practice itself left some traces.
Actor Julia Louis-Dreyfus once shared an anecdote on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in 2020. Julia went to the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Austria where the guide shared that prior to their visit, they gave a private tour to president Putin. The actress revealed that the museum authorities had to set up a private toilet that Putin carries with him wherever he goes, right outside the museum.
The rumour mill has it that Putin is suffering from a chronic illness and that he is being treated for a variety of ailments. Just like his private team, it is reported that Putin takes his medical team where he goes.

A pub co-owned by England pace-bowling stalwart Stuart Broad in Upper Broughton, East Midlands, has been ravaged by fire, according to a report in mirror.co.uk.
The roof of the Tap & Run pub, owned by Broad and former teammate Harry Gurney, was destroyed in the major fire which broke out on Saturday night, and it took eight fire tenders to bring the blaze under control.
“The Tap & Run in Upper Broughton is run by The Cat & Wickets Pub Company, which Broad launched in 2016 along with his former England and Nottinghamshire teammate Harry Gurney. The fire was first reported at 3.22am (GMT) on Saturday after breaking out in the roof and on the first floor of the pub,” the report said.
Reportedly no one suffered an injury but the the roof and first floor were badly damaged. Jonathan Wilson, station manager at Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue, was quoted as saying in the report that, “We were mobilised to this building fire and we had eight appliances here and an aerial ladder platform.
“Swift action by the crews has contained the fire to the building but the building is quite badly damaged. We are working to dampen it down and will probably be here doing that for the next couple of hours at least.
“There was not believed to be anybody inside the building and the fire was contained to the building itself. Crews from Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire together have been working to deal with it.
“We are going to concentrate on putting the fire out — we are having a structural engineer have a look at the building as well to see if it is structurally safe, then there will be an investigation.”
The fire took place as Broad was playing in the second Test againt New Zealand at Trent Bridge.
Partners Broad and Gurney issued a statement saying they were ‘heartbroken’.
“We’re absolutely devastated to report that a fire broke out in the pub during the night. We are heartbroken to see our beautiful pub up in flames. We are so sorry that we will be unable to honour any bookings for the foreseeable future and sorry for any distress that the fire has caused to villagers. We will keep everyone updated on social media in the coming days and weeks.”

The World Bank’s Board of Executive Directors has approved financing of US$44 million for the Guyana Strengthening Human Capital through Education Project. The project will focus on expanding access to quality education at the secondary level, as well as improving technical and vocational training (TVET) to meet the needs of the labor market. The funding aims to prepare Guyanese citizens to excel in emerging sectors of the economy including climate-resilient agriculture, low-carbon technology, and digital development.
“Guyana is investing heavily in its citizens, with education and vocational training playing a key role as the country is at a key juncture of its growth,” said Diletta Doretti, World Bank Resident Representative for Guyana and Suriname. “This project complements other education initiatives that the World Bank is supporting, as the government is working to ensure that more people can acquire the needed skills to benefit from the ongoing economic transformation.”
Activities under the project are expected to benefit at least 60,744 students and 2,128 teachers and principals at the secondary level. At the TVET level, a minimum of 600 students and 140 secondary and post-secondary TVET trainers will benefit from professional development activities.
The project will support the piloting and national rollout of a new curriculum for grades 7-9, which emphasizes environmental stewardship and climate change, integrated into social studies and science for grades 7 and 9. The project will also finance textbooks for grades 7-11 to support the rollout of the new curriculum and the urgent need for learning recovery following the pandemic.
Increased support for teachers and principals is also envisioned under the project. This includes training teachers on the new curriculum and how to teach students with different needs – including students with disabilities. Other interventions include the coaching and mentoring of teachers to support continuous professional development and the development and implementation of an instructional leadership and managerial program for principals.
In light of the learning losses caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, project activities will include establishing an early warning system to help teachers and principals identify and support students at risk of dropping out. General secondary schools will also be built or rehabilitated to improve the learning environment for students, as well as improving infrastructure, climate resilience and access to education for all students.
The project will also support technical and vocational training, which will include transferrable skills to equip students for a changing labor force, including digital competency skills. It will strengthen the enabling environment for TVET and improve the quality and relevance of training options. The project includes encouraging apprenticeship, a digital platform providing information on training opportunities, and the preparation of a new TVET policy that will set the direction for the sector’s medium- to long-term development. | https://www.stvincenttimes.com/world-bank-to-improve-education-in-guyana-with-us-44-million-dollars/ | 2022-06-12T07:42:19Z | https://www.stvincenttimes.com/world-bank-to-improve-education-in-guyana-with-us-44-million-dollars/ | true | 3 |
UP energy minister meets Aligarh power dept officials
The state energy minister, AK Sharma, stressed on minimising line losses, enhancement of revenue collection, finding a permanent solution to power tripping, besides other issues, during a meeting held with officials of the electricity department, in Aligarh, on Friday evening.
“All steps required to find a solution to power issues should be taken on a priority basis and in the interest of consumers, with the technology available. Information should be made available about one time settlement (OTS) schemes so that pending disputes are resolved and recoveries made wherever needed to the benefit of both the power department and the consumer,” said Sharma.
While issuing directions for improving the services rendered by the power department, the minister told officials that elected representatives should not be neglected and better coordination should be established with them while serving the masses. Sharma also held a separate meeting with elected representatives, SSP and DM of Aligarh.
“Elected representatives should be invited with a date declared in advance for monthly coordination meetings with officials. Similar meetings of the Smart City Advisory Committee should be held regularly and ideas suggested by elected representatives should be included and discussed,” said Sharma.
“The power department is duty-bound to ensure uninterrupted power supply and all required steps should be taken to ensure this. There has been marked improvement in electricity services in the last five years, and currently, more than 25,400 mega watt electricity is being supplied in Uttar Pradesh,” Sharma said.
Pratibha Shukla, the minister of state for women’s welfare and child development was also present during the meeting and asked police officials to ensure timely registration of cases on the complaint of women. | https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/others/up-energy-minister-meets-aligarh-power-dept-officials-101654974592546-amp.html | 2022-06-12T07:46:13Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/others/up-energy-minister-meets-aligarh-power-dept-officials-101654974592546-amp.html | false | 1 |
'Sometimes I want to see him with the new ball': Gavaskar predicts 28-year-old star as India's 'game changer' in T20 WC
- The return of 28-year-old star in the Indian set-up has already drawn immense praise and Gavaskar has already hailed the youngster as a "game changer" for the Men in Blue not just in the tournament but also in the all T20I matches.
The T20 World Cup is still three and a half months away and India still have a few more series to play before they lock in on their final 15 for the big event in Australia this October, but the return of 28-year-old star in the Indian set-up has already drawn immense praise and former India captain Sunil Gavaskar has already hailed the youngster as a "game-changer" for the Men in Blue not just in the tournament but also in the all T20I matches.
Gavaskar ws full of praise for Hardik Pandya, who recently capped off an impressive season in IPL 2022, both as an all-rounder and as a captain. And his superb all-round ability was rewarded with a place in the Indian team for the first time since the 2021 T20 World Cup.
Speaking to Star Sports after India's match against South Africa in the first T20I earlier this week, Gavaskar opined that Hardik will be the game change for India in all the T20I matches in the foreseeable future and that he wishes to see the all-rounder take the new ball as well at times.
"I think he is going to be the game-changer for India, more often than not, in all the matches that are due to come, not just the World Cup but every single match that India plays, whether he bats at No. 5, whether he comes into bowl at first change or second change. Sometimes I will actually want to see him with the new ball," he said.
Hardik made a great return to the India XI as she scored an unbeaten 12-ball 31 with the bat and also bowled an over, albeit for 18 runs in the series opener against Temba Bavuma's men at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
Former South Africa captain Graeme Smith, who was part of the same discussion, was asked if India need Hardik the finisher more than his bowling abilities and he replied saying, "No, I disagree. You need the finisher as well but I think the all-round package of Hardik Pandya gives India options in selection."
"It might give you the option of playing the extra spinner or a bowler less and strengthen your batting and going into the World Cup, I think having him as a full-blown all-rounder is key to the balance of India's team," he added. | https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/sometimes-i-want-to-see-him-with-the-new-ball-sunil-gavaskar-predicts-28-year-old-star-hardik-pandya-as-india-s-game-changer-in-t20-world-cup-101654944631377.html | 2022-06-12T07:48:58Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/sometimes-i-want-to-see-him-with-the-new-ball-sunil-gavaskar-predicts-28-year-old-star-hardik-pandya-as-india-s-game-changer-in-t20-world-cup-101654944631377.html | true | 2 |

Queen Elizabeth IIwas fondly referred to as Lilibet by senior royal family members.
The monarch, who struggled to pronounce her name back in childhood, started calling herself by the moniker, thereby inspiring her grandparents to call her by the same name.
She would often sign off letters with the shortened version of Elizabeth, including in a thank you note addressed to her grandmother Queen Mary, the Daily Star reports.
It reads: "Darling Granny. Thank you very much for the lovely doll's house. I do love it, and I have unpacked the dining room and the hall. Love from Lilibet xxx."
Her father, George VI also said: "Lilibet is my pride. Margaret is my joy."
Queen was later called Lilibet by husband Prince Philip. Upon his death, the monarch left a note on his coffin, signing it off with her nickname.
Ever since the death of her parents and husband, nobody in the royal family refers to her as Lilibet. | https://www.geo.tv/latest/421990-how-queen-came-to-be-known-as-lilibet-read-inside | 2022-06-12T07:50:06Z | https://www.geo.tv/latest/421990-how-queen-came-to-be-known-as-lilibet-read-inside | false | 1 |

Climate change a bigger threat than war, Fiji tells security summit
- Published
Fiji has told an Asian security summit that climate change is a bigger threat to the Pacific than military tensions.
"Machine guns, fighter jets... are not our primary security concern. The single greatest threat to our very existence is climate change," Fiji Defence Minister Inia Seruiratu said.
He was addressing a summit in Singapore which has focused on China-US tensions and the Ukraine war.
Cyclones have repeatedly battered Fiji and other low-lying Pacific countries.
"It threatens our very hopes and dreams of prosperity. Human-induced, devastating climate change," Mr Seruiratu told the forum, called the Shangri-La Dialogue.
Floods in Fiji caused by tropic cyclones have displaced thousands of people in recent years and wrought economic havoc.
Pacific states have urged advanced industrialised nations to do more to combat climate change.
"Waves are crashing at our doorsteps, winds are battering our homes, we are being assaulted by this enemy from many angles," Mr Seruiratu told delegates.
The world is now about 1.2C warmer than it was in the 19th Century - the result of humans burning fossil fuels, which release greenhouse gases, mostly carbon dioxide (CO2).
But much attention has focused on China's growing challenge to Western strategic interests in the Asia-Pacific region.
In April China signed a security pact with the Solomon Islands, causing concern in Australia, New Zealand and the US. The details of it were not disclosed.
Besides the Solomons, Pacific island nations have not so far reached consensus on China's proposal for a new regional trade and security pact.

Stranger Things on Netflix has seen a journey that is unique and surprising. A show so complex managed to intrigue the audience and hook to it for 4 long seasons and multiple lockdowns imposed by the pandemic. Season 4 became one of the most anticipated things on earth and was in the making for 2 years. While the new season is still making the noise and the audience is already waiting for Vol 2, the Duffer Brothers have now made a shocking revelation and it involves Joe Keery.
For the unversed, Joe Keery plays Steve Harrington in Stranger Things. His character is one of the most transformed ones and has an interesting story arc. He started out as a School bully who was majorly bullying Jonathan Byers played by Charlie Heaton. In no time he found himself facing Demogorgon and had a change of heart. He became the babysitter of the gang he despised.

Now, after you have seen his arc grow so well, imagine if we tell you that the makers had plans to kill him in season 1 itself? Well, we aren’t making this up but Stranger Things Creators Duffer Brothers themselves have revealed that detail. Read on to know everything you should about this surprising update of the day.
Trending
As per the Screenrant report, Duffer Brothers in the latest interview have revealed their earlier plans of killing Joe Keery’s Steve Harrington in season 1 itself. The two even went on to credit Joe for helping them shape the character well.
The Stranger Things creators said, “When he comes back and fights the Demogorgon, that was supposed to be Jonathan’s dad… You’re learning what works and what doesn’t work. The cast is impacting where you take the narrative, the other writers and directors … it’s this living thing.”
Meanwhile, the makers are now gearing up to release Stranger Things Season 4 Vol 2 on July 1, 2022. Stay tuned to Koimoi for more. Also read our Stranger Things Season 4 Vol 1 Review here.

Roger Federer admitted Saturday that “things are moving slowly” in his attempt to recover from knee surgery.
The 20-time Grand Slam title winner and former world number one has not played since a quarter-final defeat at Wimbledon almost a year ago.
He then underwent a third surgery on his knee while his world ranking has slumped to 50, his lowest in 22 years.
Federer told Swiss broadcaster SRF that he “plays from time to time” with his four children, but “things are moving slowly”.
He still intends to return to action at the Laver Cup in London at the end of September when he will have already celebrated his 41st birthday.
“I had surgery at the end of August and people ask me ‘So, how does it look?’. And each time I have to answer that it will take a little more time,” he said.
Federer said he is “currently focusing on (his) physical condition, so that there is no overload” and goes to the gym “five to six times a week.”
“I just have to stay patient, I’m making constant progress.”
After the Laver Cup from September 23-25, Federer has already said he intends to play in his hometown tournament of Basel from October 24-30.
Federer, the winner of 103 trophies over his career, played only 13 matches in 2021 and just six in 2020. | https://scroll.in/field/1026000/tennis-roger-federer-on-recovery-i-just-have-to-stay-patient-i-m-making-constant-progress | 2022-06-12T08:00:01Z | https://scroll.in/field/1026000/tennis-roger-federer-on-recovery-i-just-have-to-stay-patient-i-m-making-constant-progress | false | 4 |

Edgar Berlanga successfully defended his NABO Super Middleweight Title against Roamer Alexis Angulo on Saturday at the Madison Square Garden in New York.
The pair squared off for ten rounds to highlight the eve of the Puerto Rican Day Parade in New York City. Two judges scored the fight 99-91 while the other had it 98-92, all in favor of ‘The Chosen One’ for a unanimous decision victory.
Despite the lopsided decision, the fight went back-and-forth from the get-go until the final bell sounded.
It was Angulo who stepped up the attack early in the first round. Berlanga was able to block most of his attempts and connected with his left a couple of times before the opening round ended.
The exchange continued into the second round. Berlanga (20-0, 16 KOs) had the last laugh after knocking Angulo (27-3, 23 KOs) off balance with a right hand. The 25-year-old NABO titleholder again knocked Angulo off balance with a left hook barely a minute into the fifth round.
Angulo had his moments on several occasions of the fight, most notably during the end of the seventh round where he clipped Berlanga with a right hand. However, during this particular round, Berlanga was caught trying to bite Angulo's neck, reminiscent of Mike Tyson's infamous ear bite to Evander Holyfield.
Watch Edgar Berlanga try to bite Alexis Angulo’s neck:
The pair engaged in an entertaining exchange midway through the ninth round, with both landing solid shots. In the tenth and final round, Berlanga connected with a left hook with about a minute left. Angulo fought back and drilled a right hand of his own before the final bell sounded.
The win was Berlanga's fourth consecutive decision victory after a scintillating 16-straight first-round knockouts to start his career.

Census wants to know how to ask about sexuality and gender
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - The 2020 census questionnaire drove Scout crazy. With no direct questions about sexual orientation and gender identity, it made him feel left out of the U.S. head count.
Among LGBTQ people, the census only asked about same-sex couples living together, and Scout didn’t live with his partner. So to compensate, he hounded his gay, cohabiting neighbors in Providence, Rhode Island to respond and provide at least some visibility for the community.
“I was stalking them to fill out the census form because mine didn’t make a difference,” said Scout, a transgender man who uses one name. “There’s no question I’m absolutely made invisible by the census.”
This could change soon. Recognizing the difficulty of persuading people to reveal information many find sensitive, the U.S. Census Bureau is requesting millions of dollars to study how best to ask about sexual orientation and gender identity. The results could provide much better data about the LGBTQ population nationwide at a time when views about sexual orientation and gender identity are evolving.
“Change is in the air,” said Kerith Conron, research director at the UCLA School of Law’s Williams Institute, which researches these issues. “It’s exciting.”
The Census Bureau’s request comes as President Joe Biden declared June as LGBTQ “Pride Month,” and as U.S. passports now offer an “X” in addition to “M” or “F”, for non-binary or intersex individuals. It is taking place as some Republican-dominated state legislatures restrict what can be discussed about sexual orientation and gender identity in schools and banned transgender girls from competing in girls’ sports.
“We are seeing that numbers matter when politicians are demeaning and conducting culture wars against people,” said Gina Duncan, a transgender woman who advocates in Orlando with Equality Florida.
As the nation’s largest statistical agency, the bureau sets an example for how other agencies and businesses ask these questions, she noted.
The most common terms used for sexual orientation are lesbian, gay, bisexual or straight. Gender norms are typically understood as male, female, both or neither.
The $10 million would be spent over several years to fund Census Bureau field tests of different wording and placement of questions that would appear on its annual American Community Survey.
The bureau is particularly interested in examining how answers are provided by “proxies” such as a parent, spouse or someone else in a household who isn’t the person about whom the question is being asked.
Other federal agencies already ask about sexual orientation, primarily in health surveys conducted by trained interviewers with respondents answering for themselves. The much more widely circulated Census Bureau surveys tend to rely on proxies more.
Wording and design matter since they can affect accuracy.
A confusing layout on the 2010 census form led some census takers to misreport the genders of opposite-sex couples, falsely inflating the number of same-sex households. Studies also have shown that some transgender people are more likely to leave gender questions blank or check both “male” and “female.”
Some respondents might not want to share such personal information, or may be unsure of how to answer. And some proxies might not know the sexual orientation and gender identity of everyone in their household. In places like New Zealand and the United Kingdom, surveys don’t allow proxy reporting for sexual orientation questions because of concerns about accuracy and confidentiality.
The federal statistical system currently is unable to provide high-quality information about sexual and gender minorities without improving and expanding data gathering on this topic, the Census Bureau said in its 2023 budget submission.
“This research can help us measure the growing and diverse LGBTQ population in the United States,” a Census Bureau statement said.
Next week, the House Committee on Oversight and Reform is discussing legislation that would require data on sexual orientation and gender identity to be collected voluntarily in federal surveys.
Federal data collection traditionally has treated sexual orientation and gender identity as binary — gay or straight, male or female — but this can mask greater complexities and wide-ranging identities, according to a report the National Academies of Sciences, Medicine and Engineering released this spring.
The once-a-decade census, the yearly American Community Survey and the annual Current Population Survey now allow same-sex couples a chance to answer if they are in a marriage or domestic partnership. But that omits LGBTQ people who are single or not living in the same household with their partner, and for the gender question, “male” and “female” are the only options.
Because the same-sex response is limited to individuals living together, it captures only a fifth of the nation’s LGBTQ population, Conron said.
Only the bureau’s online Household Pulse Survey, created at the start of the coronavirus pandemic, includes “transgender” and “none of these” alongside the “male” and “female” options. It also allows respondents to identify as gay, straight, bisexual, “something else” and “I don’t know.” However, the Household Pulse Survey is categorized as experimental and may not meet some of the bureau’s statistical quality standards.
Other nations that already ask about sexual orientation in their data collection include Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the countries of the United Kingdom.
A report from a working group of U.S. agencies recommends that sexual orientation be asked separately from gender identity and that language used for older adults be tweaked when asking teens questions, since their preferred terminologies, like “queer,” may be different. Cultural, regional and language differences also must be considered. Some Native Americans may identify as “two-spirit” rather than gay or bisexual, and in Spanish, “heterosexual” was found to reduce confusion over “straight, that is, not gay” which doesn’t translate directly, the report said.
“Each new generation is more diverse in its sexuality and gender,” Duncan said. “The Census Bureau should stay up to date with that evolution.”

Written and directed by rom-com regent Richard Curtis, 2009’s The Boat That Rocked is a noughties comedy treat that has lost none of its irresistible charm. Exploring the world of 60s pirate radio, the film has an ensemble cast including the late Philip Seymour Hoffman, Nighy, Frost, Rhys Ifans, and Kenneth Branagh.
With some of Britain’s finest actors on board – along with the ever-brilliant trans-Atlantic talent of Hoffman – it tells the tale of the fictional pirate radio station ‘Radio Rock’ and its team of eclectic disc jockeys, who broadcast rock and pop music to the UK from a ship anchored in the North Sea.
Produced by Working Title Films for Universal Pictures, The Boat That Rocked was one of the finest feel-good entries of its decade, and in my opinion represents some of Curtis’s best work to date...
In the mid 1960s, the BBC plays little pop music, even though the genre is growing in power and appeal. Luckily for fans however, there is an alternative on the airwaves, and one that is causing a stir.
To the irritation of the UK Government, a pirate radio station is operating on a ship off the coast, capturing half of the English audience, and bringing ‘Radio Rock’ to the people. Run by a rag-tag band of fun-loving, free-wheeling DJs, Radio Rock is leading the charge against conformity, and aboard its mighty boat, life is one big party.
Young Carl (Tom Sturridge), thrown out of school for smoking, is remanded by his unconventional mother (Emma Thompson) to the ship, where leader of the pack Quentin (Nighy) takes him under his wing and introduces him to the rest of the motley crew.
Star of the Radio Rock team is ‘The Count’ (Hoffman), a middle-aged American rocker determined to keep his youth and party spirit alive by any means necessary. Backing him up are ‘Doctor Dave’ (Frost), a charming and tubby lover of the ladies, and a gaggle of other airwaves libertines including the kind and sensitive ‘Simple Simon’ (Chris O’Dowd) and ship’s fool, Angus ‘The Nut’ Nutsford (Rhys Darby).
Life on the boat for Carl is good, but as the youngster is finding his place among the merry band, trouble is building for Radio Rock behind the scenes. Uptight Government minister Sir Alistair Dormandy (Branagh) has made it his mission to bring pirate radio down, and our boat of heroes is his main target.
Meanwhile, tensions aboard the ship itself arise as legendary DJ and womaniser Gavin Kavanagh (Ifans) returns to the boat, and a rivalry with The Count ensues. Will Sir Alistair succeed in sinking the ship, or will the boat be rocked of its own accord?
Sadly, The Boat That Rocked was a commercial failure at the UK box office, making only $10.1 million in its first three months – just a fifth of its $50 million production cost. It also fared poorly in the US, earning only $8 million. When the worldwide theatrical run was finished in January 2010, the flick had grossed only $36.56 million.
For me this is a great shame, as I believe that time has judged this film to have a certain everlasting magic, and I find it one of the most enjoyable entries of Richard Curtis’s back catalogue.
Ifans, Frost, Hoffman and Nighy are superb throughout, and as with last week’s classic, A Knight’s Tale, this flick always looks like one that was a great joy to be involved in.
If for nothing else, The Boat That Rocked provides a bit of escapism to a world without care, which many of us could still probably do with right now. Packed with wonderfully British humour and – as you’d expect – supported by a rather exceptional soundtrack, it remains one of my all-time favourite comfort choices, and may be just the barge you need to board for a bit of a laugh. | https://www.shropshirestar.com/entertainment/2022/06/12/film-talk-looking-back--radio-renegades-in-the-boat-that-rocked/ | 2022-06-12T09:06:59Z | https://www.shropshirestar.com/entertainment/2022/06/12/film-talk-looking-back--radio-renegades-in-the-boat-that-rocked/ | false | 2 |

A pensioner was injured after falling through a broken plank of wood on Southport Pier.
Alan Murray was walking along the pier on Friday, June 3 when a broken piece fell through as the 74-year-old stepped on it. According to his daughter Sarah, the family initially feared he’d collapsed when he suddenly dropped. They claim his leg dropped through the gap all the way to his thigh.
The retired teacher was on a walk with Sarah, his son Joel, daughter-in-law Maria, and three grandchildren, Sam, 11, Lily, 10, and Ruairi, four at the time. Usually fit and active, he is now struggling to move because of the pain in his leg, the Liverpool Echo reports.

Sarah said: “We had family visiting from Bristol, my older brother and his family, and we went walking on the pier. As we were walking along my dad suddenly just fell to the ground. We thought he’d collapsed, we didn’t know what had happened, but his leg had gone through one of the planks.
“As he stood on it the plank gave way and his leg went through the gap up to his thigh. Underneath the pier, it’s like a 30ft drop. We managed to get him out of the hole and he had red marks all up his leg. He then went into the toilets at the end of the pier to check and part of his leg was all bruised and grazed.
“I think they call it a piermaster or something, so he came along on a little scooter and he put a metal sheet over the bit that had broken and we’ve also reported it to Sefton Council. As we were then walking back we were so worried about walking on the pier. There are loads of other planks that look like they’re about to go and loads other loose ones as well.”
Alan, a former secondary school English teacher, is used to going on walks and spending his spare time doing activities. Sarah said: “He’s a really active person at 74 and he likes to go cycling and walking but now he can’t really do anything because he’s still in pain with his leg. He’s said he’s going to try and avoid the pier if he can.”
A Sefton Council spokesperson said: “We can confirm we have been contacted by a member of the public about an incident that took place on the pier. Last month’s full Council meeting, approved over £200,000 for maintenance work that will start this month.”
It was agreed last month that the pier would have £200,000 spent on maintenance work, with the report into the pier saying: “The decking is rotting from within meaning it is only detected when a timber piece snaps. The Council employed a specialist timber expert who devised a programme of works and the specification of timber.” | https://www.lancs.live/news/uk-world-news/grandad-falls-through-rotten-wood-24205187 | 2022-06-12T09:39:09Z | https://www.lancs.live/news/uk-world-news/grandad-falls-through-rotten-wood-24205187 | true | 1 |
Taiwan does not want to close the door to China and is willing to engage in the spirit of goodwill, but on an equal basis and without political preconditions, Premier Su Tseng-chang said on Sunday.
Relations between Taipei and Beijing, which claims democratically ruled Taiwan as its own territory, are at their lowest in decades, with China increasing political and military pressure to get the island to accept its sovereignty.
Earlier on Sunday at a security forum in Singapore, China’s defense minister said the Chinese government sought "peaceful reunification" with Taiwan but reserved "other options."
Speaking to reporters after China banned the import of grouper fish from Taiwan on safety grounds, a move Taipei called politically motivated, Su said Taiwan has always had goodwill towards China.
"As long as there is equality, reciprocity and no political preconditions, we are willing to engage in goodwill with China," he said, reiterating a position President Tsai Ing-wen has repeatedly made in public.
"As for China’s harassment of Taiwan with military aircraft, warships, unreasonable suppression and political actions, the one being most unreasonable is China," he added.
"Taiwan does not want to close the door to China. It is China that has used various means to oppress and treat Taiwan unreasonably."
China has refused to speak to Tsai since she was first elected in 2016, viewing her as a separatist who has refused to accept that China and Taiwan are part of "one China."
Tsai says only Taiwan’s people can decide their future, and while they want peace with China will defend themselves if attacked.
Taiwan’s people, who live in one of Asia’s most freewheeling and liberal democracies, have shown no interest in being ruled by autocratic China.
China has never renounced the use of force to bring Taiwan under its control. | https://www.voanews.com/a/taiwan-says-it-s-willing-to-engage-with-china-doesn-t-want-to-close-door-/6614184.html | 2022-06-12T09:40:37Z | https://www.voanews.com/a/taiwan-says-it-s-willing-to-engage-with-china-doesn-t-want-to-close-door-/6614184.html | true | 8 |
Bengaluru: After arresting members of a well-organised gang which provided government documents like the Aadhaar Card to illegal Bangladeshi immigrants, police in Karnataka have intensified operations to track down the immigrants.
The police said on Sunday that it has also formed special teams to nab the five accused who have disappeared.
Madanayakanahalli police have arrested nine persons, including two Bangladeshi nationals, who created the fake government documents.
Investigations reveal that the accused got documents prepared for Rs 500.
State Home Minister Araga Jnanendra has appreciated the efforts of the police department. The Home Ministry has issued directions for the police department to conduct a survey of illegal immigrants in every police station jurisdiction of the state.
The police have also been directed to initiate appropriate legal action against them.
The police are questioning the kingpin of the scandal, Sydul Akoon a.k.a Shaheed Ahmad. Sydul owned a factory by the name of SA Plastic Company on the outskirts of Bengaluru. He would employ Bangladeshi immigrants who crossed borders illegally to collect trash in and around the state capital.
He would also transfer the money they earned to their families in Bangladesh. Investigations revealed that Sydul got Rs 4 crore exchanged to Bangladeshi currency and transferred it in the last year.
He has 13 bank accounts and took help from people in Kolkata, Punjab and Chennai. The immigrants entered India through Tripura and got their Aadhaar Card, Voter’s ID and other documents through the accused.
Syduln collected details of the illegal migrants and gave them to his associate, Abdul Aleem.
Abdul would create fake documents with the help of local people.
The police have recovered five fake seals of Bowring and Vani Vilas Hospitals in Bengaluru, letterheads of 26 Gazetted officers, 16 mobile phones, 31 Aadhaar Cards, and 13 PAN Cards and 28 Voter IDs.
The police stumbled upon the racket while investigating a case of theft from an ATM. | https://www.siasat.com/karnataka-police-to-track-down-bangladeshi-immigrants-2347411/ | 2022-06-12T09:41:30Z | https://www.siasat.com/karnataka-police-to-track-down-bangladeshi-immigrants-2347411/ | true | 5 |
Global media giants including Disney and Sony and Asia's richest man Mukesh Ambani reportedly battled Sunday for the broadcast rights for the Indian Premier League cricket tournament, one of the world's most-watched sporting events.
The winning bidders were expected to pay up to $7.7 billion in an online auction held by the BCCI on Sunday to show and stream the two-month contest for five seasons from 2023 to 2027, according to analysts.
This dwarfs the $2.55 billion shelled out by Star India, owned by US behemoth Disney, for the previous five-year deal which ended last month with the 15th edition of the tournament involving an expanded 10 franchises playing 74 matches.
Attracting some of cricket's top stars from India and abroad with large salaries, the league has helped make Twenty20, a shorter and more exciting format of the sport, hugely popular, spawning copycat events worldwide.

This time the BCCI is selling off four different packages including domestic and international television and online streaming rights as well as for special matches.
Besides Disney and Sony, bidders in the auction, which could stretch into Monday, include a consortium including Viacom as well as Reliance, owned by Asia's wealthiest man Mukesh Ambani, reports said.
Fellow tycoon Jeff Bezos's Amazon, which has spent hundreds of millions of dollars on rights for European soccer and American football and had earlier shown interest in the IPL, pulled out of the contest, reports said on Friday.

Woman’s body found in Syria’s al-Hol camp: SOHR
ERBIL (Kurdistan 24) – A woman was found dead in Syria’s notorious al-Hol camp, the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported on Saturday.
The body was found between the fourth and fifth sections of the camp.
According to SOHR, a total of 17 people were killed in the al-Hol camp in 2022.

In May, a total of 6 people were killed in al-Hol camp.
According to data from the UN, al-Hol is the largest camp for refugees and internally displaced people (IDPs) in Syria, hosting about 56,000 people, most of them thought to have links to ISIS.
Most of al-Hol's residents are Iraqis and Syrians. However, the camp also hosts many foreign families.
The Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (AANES) has attempted to repatriate Iraqis in al-Hol camp in coordination with Baghdad.
Moreover, the Syrian Democratic Council (SDC) also launched an initiative in Oct 2020 to have Syrians in the camp return to their homes in coordination with Arab tribes.
The goal was to evacuate the camp from Iraqis and Syrians, in order to stabilize the situation in al-Hol camp.
The AANES also has called on foreign countries to repatriate their citizens.
Last week, a high-level UN delegation, including the Special Representative of the United Nations Secretary-General for Iraq Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, visited the camp.

"The best and only durable solution is to control the situation, managing returns swiftly and decisively, in the spirit of partnership, to prevent the legacy of yesterday's flight from fueling tomorrow's conflict," Hennis-Plasschaert said.

Love Island couple Olivia and Alex Bowen have welcomed a beautiful bundle of joy into the world.
The married couple couldn't wait to share their wonderful news with the world along with an abundance of adorable snaps and of course their sweet chosen name.
Olivia wrote: "Abel Jacob Bowen. You are everything. 10/06/22."
Before now, the pair had opted not to find out the sex of their unborn child and so the announcement that a baby [boy/girl] had been welcomed into the Bowen household was a wonderful surprise for all.
The expectant mum, sent fans wild shortly before giving birth after she treated fans on her home Instagram account to a sneak preview of her baby's nursery.
As the ITV stars didn't want to know the gender of their baby, the room was decorated with beautiful blends of neutral unisex colours.
At the time, eagle-eyed fans thought they'd spotted a hint of blue on a number of baby grows and questioned whether the couple had known all along that they were expecting a little boy.
Shutting down claims they'd found out already, Olivia took to her own Instagram account to set the record straight.
She Penned: "To the eagle eyes out there [laughing face with crying eyes emoji] we have a pink AND a blue babygrows hanging up ready to take to the hospital to see which he/she ends up coming home in.
"Loved the idea to have both prepped!
"Just before anyone starts thinking we’re having twins or we know what we’re having, we don’t," added the star.
Back in January, the twosome who met on 2016 series of love Island announced that Olivia was pregnant with their first child and have made it clear in interviews since they had no intension of knowing.
The pair who have been open about baby names in the past, revealed to OK! magazine that they'd been having difficulties selecting a name.
Speaking to the publication, Olivia said: "We like really traditional names, I like old lady names.
"We're just really struggling to agree on a girl. I like Audrey and Aubrey, but you didn't like those, did you?" she asked Alex.
Alex who wasn't too keen on the names, responded: "No. And I liked Kai for a boy, but you didn't like that! To be fair, our boy's name has been locked in for a long time now."

'The Way Man United Are At The Minute' - Pundit On Red Devils Chances Of Hijacking The Transfer Of Darwin Nunez To Liverpool
Former player turned pundit Paddy Kenny has been speaking about Manchester United's chances of stealing Benfica striker Darwin Nunez from under the noses of Liverpool.
It looks like Liverpool are close to agreeing on a €100million deal but according to reports from Paul Joyce and coming out of Portugal, there is still some way to go before the transfer terms are agreed on.
Speaking to Football Insider, Kenny can't see any way that the Red Devils will steal in at the last minute to sign the 22-year-old.
“Not for me.
“The way Man United are at the minute, you have Liverpool challenging for the title and the Champions League.
“I can’t see any way he chooses Man United over Liverpool if I’m honest."
Kenny doesn't think United have the same power in the transfer market they used to have and it will need Erik ten Hag to lead them into the Champions League for that to change.

“I’m sure he will pick Liverpool if it comes down to it. This will keep happening to Man United as long as they are out of the Champions League.
“Top players want to play at the top level and Manchester United currently aren’t there.
“They can’t pick the same players they used to, they have to get used to that.”
With the deal for Nunez still not agreed, it does leave a glimmer of hope for other potential suitors like United.
The player has been clear however that he only wants to play for Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool so it's likely the remaining issues will be resolved over the coming days and the Uruguyan will join the Merseyside club.

Food insecurity is rising globally because of the war in Ukraine, according to experts, with Africa expected to be hit the hardest. The world’s superpowers, China and the U.S., say they are trying to mitigate the fallout but at the same time are accusing each other of exacerbating the crisis.
A state newspaper, The China Daily, placed blame for the situation partially on Washington, saying: “Food prices have reached an all-time high, as Russian and Ukrainian grain exports are hindered by port disruptions and Western sanctions.”
The U.S., for its part, has accused China of hoarding, after President Xi Jinping said earlier this year that food security in China was a primary concern and urged farmers to scale up production to ensure the world’s most populous country was self-sufficient.
Asked by VOA if the Asian giant couldn’t help combat food insecurity caused by the Ukraine conflict, U.S. Ambassador Jim O’Brien, head of the Office of Sanctions Coordination, replied, “We would love to see China act like the large power it is in helping to address the problem in the global food market.”
“We are concerned that China is building up its domestic stocks and continuing to purchase grain on the global market at a time when we would love to see it be able to help those who are in need,” he added.
China has hit back at the accusations of hoarding. “Currently China supplies over 95 percent of its own needs for grain. It is unnecessary for the country to ‘hoard grains’ in the international market,” an article in the state-affiliated Global Times said. “In contrast to China’s contributions to global food security, the U.S. is the major instigator behind the current global food crisis.”
US rebuts sanctions narrative
The worry about global food insecurity began soon after Russia invaded Ukraine in February. Russia and Ukraine are the world’s largest and fifth-largest wheat exporters respectively. Since the war broke out, exports of the grain, as well as maize and sunflower oil, have been severely disrupted.
Many African countries depend heavily on Ukrainian and Russian imports for their food supply, and some say U.S. sanctions on Moscow are to blame for their woes.
Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni said in May, “The war in Ukraine and Western sanctions on Russia have also caused shortages of wheat.”
Likewise, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has said, "Even those countries that are either bystanders or not part of the conflict are also going to suffer from the sanctions that have been imposed against Russia."
Current African Union Chair Macky Sall, who met with Russian President Vladimir Putin last week, tweeted that the Russian leader was ready and willing to facilitate the export of Ukrainian cereals and suggested the West was hampering him.
“I call on all partners to lift sanctions on wheat and fertilizer,” Sall said.
But at a virtual press briefing organized by the U.S. Embassy in Johannesburg on Thursday, O’Brien said the narrative that sanctions were hurting food exports was misleading.
“The U.S. does not sanction Russian food and fertilizer,” he said. “Russia has disrupted one of the most productive ways that countries received grain. Ukraine used to export 6 million or so tons of grain a month, mostly to the global South. And now that has had to stop; in March and April, it was very small.”
O’Brien said the U.S. and European Union are trying to facilitate exports from Ukraine but that “at best it will probably be about half what it was before, and that’s because Russia has occupied or destroyed 30-odd percent of Ukraine’s grain-producing capability. It is attacking grain storage and processing facilities.”
Cary Fowler, the U.S. special envoy for global food security, said at the same press event, “The situation in the Ukraine has, by all estimates, pushed – is pushing about 40 million additional people into the ranks of the food-insecure.”
Ukraine produces enough food to feed about 400 million people, Fowler said, “and that’s sitting in silos right now in Ukraine, unable to get out” because Russia is blockading the ports.
Resultant food-price spikes are going to have “an impact on Africa first and foremost,” he added. The World Bank said this week that as of June 1, maize and wheat prices were 42% and 60% higher, respectively, compared with January of last year.
More from U.S.
Last month, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken pledged more money to combat food insecurity globally, noting “32 of the 39 countries at greatest risk from this acute food crisis are in Africa.”
“Just since February, the United States has pledged more than $2.3 billion of food assistance. And pending final approval from our Congress, we'll provide more than $5 billion in additional aid, including more than $760 million specifically for global food security.”
As well as the billions in funds, the U.S. is also boosting its domestic fertilizer production, Blinken added. Russia is the world’s largest fertilizer exporter.
Chinese officials have also been speaking about the global food crisis, with some state media, much like the Africa Union’s Sall, blaming Western sanctions.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said last month that China already feeds one-fifth of the global population, the Global Times reported. The report also said China had donated $130 million to the U.N.’s Food and Agriculture Organization “in recent years.”
This week, China’s state news agency Xinhua reported that “African nations can leverage existing collaboration with China to transform their agricultural systems [and] tackle hunger,” attributing it to Quoqi Wu, a senior official at the U.N.’s International Fund for Agriculture Development.
Wu said that, among developing nations, China is the biggest donor to the IFAD and had helped finance numerous projects to boost agricultural best practices on the continent. | https://www.voanews.com/a/us-china-blame-each-other-over-food-insecurity-/6612672.html | 2022-06-12T10:28:05Z | https://www.voanews.com/a/us-china-blame-each-other-over-food-insecurity-/6612672.html | false | 3 |

QatarEnergy will announce more partners in coming days for gas field expansion, it says
QatarEnergy will announce more partners in the coming days for the expansion of the Northfield East gas field, part of the world's largest liquified natural gas (LNG) project, the company's chief executive said at a signing ceremony with TotalEnergies. The Gulf state is partnering with international energy companies in the first and largest phase of a nearly $30 billion expansion of the project.
QatarEnergy will announce more partners in the coming days for the expansion of the Northfield East gas field, part of the world's largest liquified natural gas (LNG) project, the company's chief executive said at a signing ceremony with TotalEnergies.
The Gulf state is partnering with international energy companies in the first and largest phase of a nearly $30 billion expansion of the project. Saad al-Kaabi, who is also Qatar's minister of state for energy, said subsequent signings could be announced in the near future, possibly at the end of next week. The top oil and gas producers have been eager to secure a stake in one of the world's most lucrative energy projects, but Qatar's strategy has been to raise the bar on what it expects of those potential partners in return for an offtake from the North Field. The North Field Expansion (NFE) plan includes six LNG trains that will ramp up Qatar's liquefaction capacity from 77 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) to 126 mtpa by 2027. Oil Majors bid for four trains of the North Field East expansion. The other two trains will be part of a second phase, the North Field South.

A couple from Mansfield who created a makeup business they refer to as 'the Airbnb' of the beauty industry have sold the company to global brand Revolution Beauty. Their business, Allure Me Beauty, was set up with just a £4,000 investment between them.
Allure Me Beauty, which has now rebranded as My Revolution, is an online beauty booking platform set up by co-founders Jason Iliffe and Nicola Gunby while they were travelling. The website allows customers to book a mobile or home appointment without needing to visit a salon. The couple have just joined global cosmetics giant, Revolution Beauty, which will help them to take the business into the next stage.
"It was such a great opportunity that we couldn't miss out on. Revolution Beauty was looking for something different and it was the right place at the right time. We are so excited as they are a global beauty brand that will allow us to expand into Europe and the world. They already had the infrastructure in place so it made perfect sense," Nicola said.

Nicola had been working as a make-up artist but, despite opportunities with the Melbourne Cup Carnival, Formula 1, Australian Open as well as on music videos and TV series, she found it difficult to break into the industry. She was frustrated by the difficulties that make-up artists experience, especially those starting their careers, when entering the business trying to locate clients and cover their start-up fees. The couple were traveling when they started Allure Me Beauty and were on a beach in Sri Lanka when they launched.
"I found it really difficult to get work so I wondered why there wasn't a website like Airbnb or Uber for professionals who put their work on there so clients could contact them. It meant you wouldn't have to find the clients yourself. We had 100 signups on the first day which made us realise that we had something here which we could turn into a business," she said.
The sign-ups soon rose to more than 2,000 within the first few months of the company being online. Nicola began searching for investment so that the team could make the next step in developing the business. The new app will be able to help professionals to manage their business better including covering themselves in case of costly no-shows or cancellations.
"We were connected to Adam Minto, the founder of Revolution Beauty. He saw the benefits of bringing Allure Me Beauty in house so we've been able to rebrand to develop an app called My Revolution where professionals and customers can connect. It can also help professionals to manage their diaries, and deal with cancellations or no-shows."
It has been a difficult time for the service industry, including hairdressers and make-up artists who have had to adapt to COVID restrictions very quickly. Freelance artists were left wondering what to do when restrictions left them unable to do appointments, doubling up on PPE and also banned salons from opening.
Nicola said: "It was very difficult when the beauty industry shut down. There were months when you weren't allowed to go into people's homes so that meant we were a bit stuck. So many businesses and salons shut down, it was really sad. We knew we had an idea so we kept going with it."
"Coming out of lockdown, we saw that artists were a bit sceptical, they had retrained or started new jobs or were just doing it on the side. We also saw the other side which was lots of new professionals joining the platform who had just lost their jobs. It was a struggle and we felt almost as if we had to start again. I feel as if everything is getting back to normal now but you felt like you lost everything and had to start from the ground up," she added.
The business has gone from strength to strength in recent months including the sale to Revolution Beauty. Nicola takes it day by day when it comes to managing the brand and the workload but is determined that the brand will become even bigger.
"It's crazy to think that when we first started, we would have been bought out by a global brand. I would have laughed if you told that as I would have thought there was no way. You get stuck into the work and you don't realise what's going on but you need to take a step back to realise how big it is," she said. | https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/mansfield-couple-behind-the-airbnb-7120279 | 2022-06-12T10:35:09Z | https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/mansfield-couple-behind-the-airbnb-7120279 | false | 1 |

Which pumping bras are best?
Most busy moms will tell you that multitasking is an absolute necessity. Pumping can be time-consuming and annoying, having to stop throughout the day to do. However, with a hands-free pumping bra, you can still get things done as you pump. Pumping bras work well with most breast pumps and are comfortable to wear. If you’re looking for convenience and quality, the Medela Easy Expression Bustier is the top choice.
What to know before you buy pumping bras
If you plan on using a breastpump to store your milk for your baby, there are many reasons to purchase a pumping bra. Pumping bras specialize in making pumping a more quick and convenient experience. Unlike regular maternity or nursing bras, pumping bras are specifically designed to hold breast shields in place so you do not have to. This hands-free experience gives you the freedom to continue multitasking.
Size
In contrast to regular bras, some pumping bras only have small, medium or large options. With this in mind, pay close attention to the sizing chart on the back of the package or in the product description to see what size will fit you the best.
Pump brand
Though many pumping bras can work with any pump brand, it is best to think about the one you have and see if it coordinates with the bra. Certain pumping bras have designs specifically for the circumference of the brand’s breast shield.
Style
Pumping bras come in various styles and colors. However, the style you choose mostly depends on the kind of clothing you aim to be wearing and the type of support you want. Many bustiers are constructed with strong materials because they are strapless. Therefore, they must be more or just as supportive as those with straps. Some bustiers also have zippers down the middle, which speeds up the pumping process.
What to look for in quality pumping bras
Stability
To have hands-free capability, you must have support. This means the fabric must be strong enough to stabilize the breast shields and hold the bottles up as you pump. Some pumping bras have padding, which also gives support. Avoid bras with thin materials that do not have non-slip grip technology.
Comfort
A quality pumping bra holds everything in place so you can be hands-free while providing comfort. It is crucial to get the right fit with materials that are non-irritating to the skin.
Accessibility
Of course, the most crucial element in a quality pumping bra is that it is easy and quick to start the pumping process. Zippers, flaps and clips provide access that allows you to insert the breast shields for pumping easily.
How much you can expect to spend on pumping bras
Most pumping bras and bustiers cost around $20 to $40, depending on brand and features.
Pumping bras FAQ
What should I wear with a pumping bra?
A. Try to wear what is not only comfortable but able to give you access and ease by quickly removing. Nursing tank tops, as well as loose-fitting or button-down tops, will give you an easier experience than shirts that require pulling over your head. Don’t forget to insert nursing pads inside the bra, as leaking is very common.
Can I wear a pumping bra all day?
A. As long as you have the proper fit, nursing pads, and the material is non-irritating and is comfortable for you, yes, you can wear it all day.

New Delhi, June 12
A blueprint that defines the extended jurisdiction of the Border Security Force (BSF) and its new logistical requirements in various frontier states has been prepared and is soon expected to be submitted to the Union home ministry, officials said.
The BSF guards over 6,300 kms of the Indian fronts with Pakistan on the west and Bangladesh on the eastern flank of the country.
The central government in October 2021 had issued a notification to amend a July 2014 enabling provision for the BSF personnel and officers while they operate in the border areas.
While in Punjab, West Bengal and Assam the BSF jurisdiction, from the border towards the hinterland, was enhanced from the earlier 15 kms to 50 kms, in Gujarat the same limit has been reduced from 80 kms to 50 kms while in Rajasthan the limit has been kept unchanged at 50 kms.
An exercise has been undertaken by the BSF along with its other sister agencies to identify and mark the new 50 km jurisdiction and its alignment on the ground as per the notification issued last year. This is part of the step-by-step implementation of the new government order.
The geographical locations, physical structures that will fall along the new axis have been identified, officials told PTI.
The requirement for having some halting points, posts and other logistical requirements for troops undertaking operations against cross-border crimes have been identified and will be placed before the Union home ministry in due time for approval, they said.
Once the proposal is approved, the new communication, logistics and if required posts for jawans will be created gradually, the officials privy to the exercise said.
Officials in the security establishment said the force has undertaken a number of operations under the enhanced jurisdiction powers in various states over the last few months and every such action has been undertaken "after informing the local (state) police."
The results have been good so far and the force has been able to check cross-border crimes like narcotics trafficking and cattle smuggling in the about dozen cases where it has undertaken operations under the new jurisdiction, they said.
The Union home ministry informed the Parliament in December last year that the enhancement in jurisdiction "is aimed at empowering BSF to discharge its border guarding duties more effectively in the wake of use of technology like dynamic remotely operated navigation equipment (drones), unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), etc., generally having long range, by anti-national forces for surveillance as well as for smuggling for arms, narcotics and fake Indian currency notes (FICN)."
"It would also help in curbing the menace of cattle smuggling as smugglers take refuge in the interior areas outside the jurisdiction of BSF. There is no impact on the jurisdiction of state government," Minister of state for home affairs Nityanand Rai had said in a written reply in the Rajya Sabha.
He was responding to a question after the governments of West Bengal and Punjab "expressed their apprehension that such a move encroaches upon the powers of the state government."
"Their apprehensions are ill-founded. The extension of territorial jurisdiction of BSF would result in better and more effective control on trans-border crimes in conjunction and cooperation with the states," the minister had said.

Shraddha Kapoor’s makeup artist Shraddha Naik was injured on the sets of Luv Ranjan’s untitled film. The actress is shooting for the film with Ranbir Kapoor in Spain. Naik took to Instagram and shared a video compilation in which she documented events that followed her injury.
In the post, Naik revealed that she sprained her leg on the second day of the shoot in Spain. “Sprained my leg on the 2nd of shoot on a crowded street of Mallorca. Was immediately taken on a stretcher to an ambulance. I dint know (whether) to laugh or cry so I choose to laugh,” she said, sharing videos and pictures of her feet.
“After X-ray the doc said it’s a ligament tear so we have to put it in a semi cast for 10 days,” she revealed, sharing a picture from the hospital, wearing a cast on her leg. “This is me in FOMO while my team goes off to a beautiful beach location to shoot,” she said, sharing a video in which the cast and crew were seen on a boat, heading to the shoot destination. “Never in 13 years of my career have I sat on a chair and done makeup. Thank you Shraddhie for being so patient with me,” she added.
Sharing the video, Naik said, “They said “Break a leg in Spain” I took it seriously 😂 Grateful for everyone around me whose taking utmost care of me 🌟 Keep the healing energies coming.” Saba Azad took to the comments section and wished her speedy recovery. “Feel better shradhooooo,” she said.
Shraddha and Ranbir are shooting for their upcoming movie in Spain for a few days now. Earlier this week, videos of Ranbir and Shraddha shooting a song in the international destination surfaced online.

ISLAMABAD (AP) — A Pakistani soldier was killed during an exchange of fire with militants in the tribal district of North Waziristan near the Afghan border, the military said Sunday.
The shootout took place in the Datta Khel area and security forces quickly started a search-and-clearance operation to locate militants who fled, the military said in a statement.
No militant group immediately claimed responsibility. The militant Pakistani Taliban recently extended a cease-fire agreement and are holding talks with Pakistani authorities.
North Waziristan and other tribal districts served as a safe haven for local and foreign militants until 2014, when the military carried out a massive operation to clear the area of militants. But they still attack security forces sporadically. | https://www.chron.com/news/article/Pakistan-military-Soldier-killed-in-shootout-17236224.php | 2022-06-12T11:14:58Z | https://www.chron.com/news/article/Pakistan-military-Soldier-killed-in-shootout-17236224.php | true | null |

U.S. stocks sold off about 3% across the board on Friday, as the latest U.S. inflation data showed continued price growth.
The benchmark S&P 500 index fell 5% last week, led by Financials and Information Technology names. Treasury yields also increased and Fed Funds futures are pricing in another 200 basis points of interest rate increases by the end of the year.
It was reported on Friday that core U.S. consumer prices (CPI) jumped by 6% in May, excluding food and energy. Short-term and five-year inflation expectations also increased with the preliminary Univ. of Michigan consumer sentiment survey.
The Week Ahead
Technology names Adobe (ADBE) and Oracle (ORCL) headline a relatively quiet earnings calendar next week.
On the economic front, the inflation watch continues on Tuesday, with May U.S. Producer Prices (PPI). May retail sales are also due out Wednesday morning.
Later that afternoon, the Federal Reserve is expected to raise interest rates by 50 basis points. Investors will pay attention to the FOMC’s quarterly economic projections to gauge how much longer the rate increase may continue.
One such Healthcare name is worth a closer look and is our Stock of the Week.
Stock of the Week: Bruker (BRKR)
The company makes scientific instruments and medical diagnostic tools.
The stock lost fractionally amongst the broad selling last week. It is showing signs that it has the potential to outperform in the second half of 2022. Here’s why:
Bruker has strong operating momentum, which was on display last month when it posted better-than-expected quarterly results. The company earned $0.49 a share in the first quarter, as revenue increased 7% from a year ago, to $595 million.
Organic sales increased 10.5% in the period, and rising customer orders led management to boost its full-year revenue guidance.
At 29.8x the expected profit over the next four quarters, Bruker is priced at a discount to its peers. Wall Street agrees that the stock holds value. The average price target of five active analysts tracked by TipRanks is $73, reflecting 18.2% upside potential.
In the meantime, the company carries an “Outperform” Smart Score of 10/10 on TipRanks. This data-driven stock score is based on 8 key market factors.
Additionally, the Smart Score indicates insider buying and positive sentiment from hedge funds and financial bloggers.

MANILA, Philippines – Netizens were resolved to keep alive the spirit of #RP612fic, or “Republic of the Philippines June 12 fiction,” an annual Independence Day tradition where people put clever spins on historical narratives, reimagining them in a modern, social media-friendly context.
The hashtag #RP612fic gathered at least 53,000 tweets as of 3:30 pm Sunday, and ranked among the top Twitter trends in the Philippines.
In the third pandemic year of #RP612fic, Jose Rizal wearing a face mask is out, and the 2022 elections, televised history blunders, and fresher pop culture references are in.
Here are some of this year’s best:

The TeamGroup T-Force Xtreem ARGB White DDR4-4000 memory kit comes to market at a time when Intel's latest 12th Generation Alder Lake processors have prompted a shift to DDR5 memory. However, TeamGroup, like other manufacturers, continues to push the performance limits for DDR4. So even though the company is certainly no stranger to our list of best RAM, it didn't bring us speeding-fast data rates, like DDR4-5000 or anything, this time. Instead, TeamGroup offers an optimized memory kit in the DDR4-4000 category with very attractive memory timings.
The new memory kit belongs to the Xtreem ARGB lineup; it retains the same aesthetics as the vanilla Xtreem ARGB memory modules. However, as the model name denotes, the Xtreem ARGB White features a white aluminum alloy heat spreader instead of the typical dark blue and purple theme from the standard Xtreem ARGB memory modules.
The Xtreem ARGB White measures 49mm (1.92 inches) tall. The memory module's translucent body allows the interior addressable RGB LEDs to shine. There are two ways to control the lighting — you can opt for TeamGroup's T-Force Blitz software or your motherboard's software. You won't have to worry about compatibility issues since the Xtreem ARGB White supports Asus Aura Sync, Gigabyte RGB Fusion 2.0, MSI Mystic Light Sync, ASRock Polychrome Sync, and Biostar Vivi LED DJ.
The T-Force Xtreem ARGB White DDR4-4000 C15 memory kit consists of two 16GB memory modules with a dual-rank design. TeamGroup produced them on a 10-layer, black PCB with Samsung K4A8G085WB-BCPB (B-die) integrated circuits (ICs).
The memory modules will operate at DDR4-2400 with 16-16-16-39 timings out of the box. Once you enable XMP or set them up manually, they will hit DDR4-4000 with 15-15-15-35 timings. The required voltage for the configuration, as mentioned earlier, is 1.5V. See our PC Memory 101 feature and our How to Shop for RAM story for more on timings and frequency considerations.
Comparison Hardware
The Intel system employs the Intel Core i9-10900K and Asus ROG Maximus XII Apex, which operates on the 0901 firmware. On the opposite side, the AMD system consists of the AMD Ryzen 9 5900X and the Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Dark Hero. The latter is on the 3501 firmware. Meanwhile, the MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Gaming Trio is in charge of the gaming RAM benchmarks,
Intel Performance
Overall, TeamGroup's memory kit was the fastest in our application tests. In gaming, it was marginally slower than the G.Skill Trident Z Royal DDR4-4000 C17. However, the Xtreem ARGB White performed exceptionally well in Microsoft Office workloads, where it was over 10% faster than the slowest memory kit. It also had strong outings in the compression and decompression benchmarks, beating the single-rank memory kits.
AMD Performance
The Xtreem ARGB White dropped to the second position in the cumulative application chart on our AMD platform. However, there wasn't a huge difference between it and the G.Skill memory kit. The memory kit was very impressive in the y-cruncher test, where it finished the benchmark over 20% faster than the slowest memory kit.
Overclocking and Latency Tuning
To run at its XMP settings, the Xtreem ARGB White already pulls 1.5V, so there wasn't a lot of headroom for overclocking without pushing over 1.6V. We opted for a more moderate 1.55V DRAM voltage to hit DDR4-4133 and only had to slightly relax the tRCD, tRP, and tRAS timings.
Lowest Stable Timings
TeamGroup optimized the memory for 15-15-15-35 at 1.5V. Increasing the DRAM voltage to 1.55V didn't produce any favorable results. We suspect that it would take 1.6V+ to get the memory timings further.
Bottom Line
You get a pretty good idea of the type of performance you can expect by only looking at a memory kit's data rate and timings. We knew the Xtreem ARGB White DDR4-4000 C15 would be one of the fastest memory kits right out the gate, and it fulfilled our expectations. But, of course, this caliber of performance doesn't come cheap, so it may not be an enticing product for average users.
As you would expect, the Xtreem ARGB White DDR4-4000 C15 is a highly-binned memory kit. So it doesn't surprise us that it carries a premium price tag. Unfortunately, the memory kit isn't currently in stock, but you can find it for $335 at TeamGroup's Amazon store (opens in new tab) when it debuts. It's the kind of purchase that requires extra contemplation, but if it's high-speed performance you're after, the Xtreem ARGB White DDR4-4000 C15 is one of the better alternatives. | https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/teamgroup-t-force-xtreem-argb-white-ddr4-4000-c15-review-specially-tuned-for-performance | 2022-06-12T11:39:59Z | https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/teamgroup-t-force-xtreem-argb-white-ddr4-4000-c15-review-specially-tuned-for-performance | false | 2 |

Prime Minister Andrew Holness says the just concluded boycott-hit Summit of the Americas in the United States was a «success» and signalled a «very important shift» in how the Caribbean region views the US.
He was speaking during an event hosted yesterday by the US think tank Atlantic Council after the summit ended.
Holness says a major accomplishment of the June 6-10 summit was the nature of discussions involving US President Joe Biden.
«I’ve been to many such summits and conferences; I think this one distinguishes itself by virtue of the frank exchanges between the leaders, especially between the United States and the various leaders of the region. I think the level of exchange was at a very frank level and I think that would help the outcomes,» he said.
Holness also said Biden assured the leaders of his «genuine interest» in the region and that most leaders left «very impressed by the willingness of the United States to listen».

Muslim-Muslim ticket is hard choice Nigerians may live with, APC NWC member replies CAN, PFN, others
IMMEDIATE past Director-General of the Progressive Governors Forum and sitting national Vice Chairman, North-West of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Salihu Lukman, has expressed concern over what he called ethno-religious consideration colouring the debate on the choice of running mate in the party.
The national secretariat of Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) at the weekend cautioned the presidential candidates of the two dominant political parties, APC and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) not to be blind to religious consideration in the choice of running mate for their standard-bearers, Senator Bola Tinubu and Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
The Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) had also kicked against a ticket of a presidential candidate and running mate of the same faith.
Speculation is rife that the APC presidential candidate is under pressure to pick a northern Muslim amongst serving governors from the North as his running mate.
Lukman, in a statement at the weekend entitled, “Issues for APC 2023 Presidential Campaign,” however, said making choices based on ethno-religious considerations could be inimical to finding solutions confronting the country.
In an allusion to the CAN demand, Lukman argued that “If Nigeria is to move forward, 2023 presidential campaigns must not reduce important debates of moving Nigeria forward to sentimental considerations of ethnicity and religion.”
The member of the APC NWC submitted further that the “religious and ethnic backgrounds of leaders must be subordinated to experiential attributes of persons being considered for leadership.”
ALSO READ FROM NIGERIAN TRIBUNE
His statement read in part: “Tinubu won the contest indisputably. With his victory, the debate has now shifted to the choice of running mate. As usual, conservative and reactionary ethno-religious consideration are colouring the debate. Question of Muslim–Muslim ticket, implying that another Muslim from the North will most likely be Tinubu’s running mate.
“Leading party members are already becoming strong advocates for or against a so-called Muslim–Muslim ticket. This debate is reproducing the old pre-convention reactionary and conservative campaign.
“If choices of leaders are dictated by ethno-religious factors, Nigerian politics will continue to be disadvantageous to many sections of the country. For instance, only Christian southerners and Muslim northerners will continue to have advantages.
“Most of those trying to use religious arguments to influence the choice of running mate for Tinubu are impliedly arguing that a Christian northerner can only win presidential election if his/her running mate is a Muslim from southern Nigeria.
“In the same way, this will be politically disadvantageous, if not impossible for any Christian from the North or Muslim from the South to win presidential election. Such a backward national mindset must be changed.
“The challenge facing Nigerian politics is about opening the democratic space. It is not going to be easy, but Nigerians must be challenged to make hard choices.
“If the truth is to be told, both Islam and Christianity, as well as all our ethnic factors have been used in equal measure to hold Nigeria at a standstill. Many so-called religious and ethnic leaders have used and are still using religion and ethnicity to pollute the minds of Nigerians against one another.
“Perhaps, it is important to stress the point that whatever is the final choice of Tinubu and APC leaders with respect to who emerges as the running mate, the 2023 presidential election will be keenly contested, irrespective of religious and ethnic identity of both Tinubu and whoever the running mate may be.
“APC leaders must acknowledge the fact that the 2023 elections present another golden opportunity for the APC to re-invent itself.
“APC must, as a party, use the 2023 presidential campaign to effectively counter all these false narratives. Part of what must be done to achieve that is about developing effective communication strategy, which has been one of the strong weaknesses of both the APC as a party and as a govern- ing party at federal level,” he said.
Don’t succumb to pressure on Muslim-Muslim ticket, ASOMBEN warns parties
But the Association of Middle Belt Ethnic Nationalities (ASOMBEN) has warned political parties and their presidential candidates not to succumb to pressure from anywhere to run Muslim/Muslim tickets, saying leadership at that level must reflect the diversity in terms of religious belief.
Speaking to Sunday Tribune on Democracy Day celebration, the chairman, ASOMBEN, Sule Kwasau, said anyone that loved Nigeria would not contemplate Muslim-Muslim or Christian/Christian ticket for the country.
“Nigeria is a multi-religious and multi-ethnic country. We have seen over time how politicians in this country used religion to ascend to power and lord it over non-adherents of their religion.
“Those presidential candidates should know that religion is a very sensitive issue in Nigeria. The leadership must reflect the diversity in terms of religious beliefs, there must sense of belonging.
“When there’s Muslim-Christian or Christian-Muslim ticket, there is likely to be relative peace. If it worked during [MKO] Abiola and [Babagana] Kingibe time, it won’t work now because of the subsequent events that have taken place”, he said.
He warned that any political party that flies a Muslim-Muslim ticket within the current historical experience will not see the light of the day in 2023.
Kwasi, who flayed the governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasiru El-Rufai, over his position on the Muslim/Muslim ticket, said the fact that it worked in Kaduna does not mean it is ideal for Nigeria.
“Some people say all politics is local, if he thinks it can be replicated at the national level, he should know it is not going to be possible.
“This country does not belong to any particular religion, if statesmen keep quiet in time of crisis, then they are no longer statesmen. Nigeria is gradually inching towards a religious war and our leaders must be very careful.
“It would have been a different thing if past leaders have shown capacity in terms of giving to Caesar what belongs to Caesar. I don’t bother which religion a person belongs to as far as I am getting what belongs to me.
“But we have seen over the years that our leaders often use religion to suppress none adherents. And there can be no peace without justice, until there’s justice, then we can have peace.”
On democracy day, the ASOMBEN leader pointed out that democratic processes in Nigeria had been bastardised, adding the recent primaries conducted at various levels had further worsened the situation.
“What we witnessed in the recent primaries are not good omen. Our democracy is a charade. We do not have true democracy in this country. The democratic processes have been corrupted and compromised.
You are playing with fire, Vatsa knocks El-Rufai
Meanwhile, a former Commissioner for Information, Culture and Tourism in Niger State and a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state, Mr Jonathan Vatsa, has taken a swipe at the Kaduna State governor, Mallam Nasiru el-Rufai over his comments that MuslimMuslim presidential ticket will not be a problem in 2023 elections.
Vatsa said that such arrangement would not only spell doom for the party, but also amounted to playing with fire.
“Kaduna State is smaller than Nigeria. If el-Rufai succeeded in Kaduna with a Muslim-Muslim ticket because he made sure the Christian communities in southern Kaduna did not come out to vote in 2019 general election to exhibit their displeasure, “such experiment cannot work in the presidential election in 2023”.
The former APC Publicity Secretary in Niger State, in a statement on Saturday, in Minna, titled “The Christians are Awake and Alive in Nigeria ahead of 2023 General Elections”, advised APC presidential candidate, Senator Tinubu to disregard el-Rufai’s comment “because no Christian in Nigeria can vote for Tinubu if he goes ahead with Muslim-Muslim ticket.” | https://tribuneonlineng.com/muslim-muslim-ticket-is-hard-choice-nigerians-may-live-with-apc-nwc-member-replies-can-pfn-others/ | 2022-06-12T11:55:12Z | https://tribuneonlineng.com/muslim-muslim-ticket-is-hard-choice-nigerians-may-live-with-apc-nwc-member-replies-can-pfn-others/ | true | 1 |

It comes at the end.
After his supporters march on the U.S. Capitol chanting “Whose streets? Our streets!” after they breach police barricades, after they smash windows and climb through, after they chant “Hang Mike Pence” and erect a gallows for that purpose, after one of them yells, “White power!” after police are beaten and sprayed and left pleading for backup, after congressional aides flee for their lives, after the proud old American tradition of a peaceful transfer of power has been laid waste forever in an unprecedented bacchanal of carnage. After all that, the voice of Donald Trump is heard in an interview given five days later.
“They were peaceful people,” he says. “These were great people. The crowd was unbelievable. . . . The love in the air, I’ve never seen anything like it.”
That moment of cognitive disconnect caps a video played during Thursday night’s televised hearing by the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection last year. That committee has multiple missions: to determine the causes, to establish a record of events, to evaluate the performance of law enforcement. But that video — and, more to the point, that moment at the end where Trump lauds the “love” of a mob ransacking the seat of government — suggests another purpose:
Inviting Republicans to return to our shared reality.
The vast majority, of course, seceded from that reality long ago. Cocooned within a media omniplex whose prime directive is to shield them from what they would rather not know, they have become intellectual cripples unable to cope with even inarguable truths. Especially this one:
Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, fair and square. It wasn’t even close.
The committee’s attempt to drag, shame or coerce Republicans from their bubble of lies was obvious, if unspoken, Thursday. It was there in that last moment of video. And in Chairman Bennie Thompson shooting down the infamous canard that the riot resembled a normal tourist visit. And in testimony from the former U.S. attorney general, William Barr, who, like many aides, told Trump that his claims of election fraud were, in Barr’s pungent word, “bull—-.” And in Trump’s own daughter, Ivanka, testifying that she “accepted” Barr’s verdict.
And it was there, bluntly, in Vice Chair Liz Cheney’s reminder to fellow Republicans who defend Trump. “There will come a day when Donald Trump is gone, but your dishonor will remain.”
Unfortunately, the more deeply people are invested in the comfort of lies, the less use they have for the challenges of truth. So it seems likely the committee’s appeal for Republicans to rejoin reality is destined for meager success at best.
For some of us, however, that has become a matter of decidedly secondary concern. What we want is less agreement than accountability, not simply for foot soldiers who smashed windows and brawled with police, but for the man who sent them out to do so. The Justice Department has seemed remarkably timid on that score even though, as Cheney reported, a federal judge says Trump likely broke two federal laws just in pressuring his vice president to reject duly authorized electoral votes.
So why has the government not taken action? Accountability has powers of instruction. Accountability might even salvage this democracy. Yes, the committee made a devastating presentation. But that only makes the necessary course of action seem more urgent.
Lock him up.

Ritchie and Gayle, signed in the summer of 2016 following the club’s relegation to the Championship, are expected to leave Newcastle United this summer.
The pair found their opportunities limited under Howe and his predecessor Steve Bruce last season, but they were still high up a training ground performance leaderboard.
“It stands for how professional they are, and how good the group has been behind the scenes,” said head coach Howe. “That's why I keep going back to that, because your training ground environment’s so important. You can't have just 11 players in a good place, and then 11 players bringing that standard down in terms of attitude, behaviour or quality.
“I've got to say everyone has lifted each other, so we've had a very very good group here, and Dwight and Matt and probably the others that I've missed have played a huge part in that.” | https://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport/football/newcastle-united/this-is-why-newcastle-uniteds-matt-ritchie-and-dwight-gayle-led-the-way-under-eddie-howe-3728570 | 2022-06-12T12:30:04Z | https://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport/football/newcastle-united/this-is-why-newcastle-uniteds-matt-ritchie-and-dwight-gayle-led-the-way-under-eddie-howe-3728570 | false | 1 |
Second Cabinet minister backs earlier tax cut `when we can afford it´
Another Cabinet minister has said he would support bringing forward income tax cuts in certain circumstances, as the Prime Minister remains under pressure to lower the burden facing families.
Northern Ireland Secretary Brandon Lewis said he would back the move “when we can afford to do it”, after Health Secretary Sajid Javid said the reduction should be fast-tracked to next year if possible.
Mr Lewis said the Government must be “prudent” with taxpayers’ money, as he warned against saddling the next generation with more debt.
In March, Chancellor Rishi Sunak pledged to cut the basic rate of income tax from 20p to 19p in the pound before the end of the current parliament, in 2024.
He said this was “fully costed”, and represented a “£5 billion tax cut for over 30 million people”.
Asked if the reduction should be brought forward, Mr Lewis told the BBC’s Sunday Morning programme: “We all want to see a low-tax economy, the Chancellor, the Prime Minister, I think all of us as Conservatives, I certainly want to see a low-tax economy as quickly as we possibly can.
“That encourages growth from businesses, it means more people have more money in their pockets to spend.”
Pressed again on whether he would want the cut to come sooner, he said: “I’d only want it to come forward when we can afford to do it.
“We cannot go and burden the next generation with more debt that they then have to pay the interest on. We’ve got to be fiscally sensible. That’s the tough decisions for Government.
“We’ve never shied away from that and I think it’s right that we get that balance. It’s a careful balance and I know it’s one the Chancellor and the Prime Minister are determined to get right.”
Mr Lewis also told Sky News’ Sophy Ridge on Sunday he thinks “lower tax is good”, but refused to be drawn on what cuts he might like to see.
He said: “I’m not going to prejudge the Chancellor… I’m never going to prejudge the difficult and complicated fiscal decisions the Chancellor has to make.
“Even before this week the Chancellor and the Prime Minister were clear that as soon as the fiscal situation allows – we’ve got to be very sensible about that, we’re managing public money after all – we want to see tax cuts, and the Chancellor wants to bring tax cuts in so more people have more money in their pocket to spend how they know they can spend it best.”
It comes after Mr Javid suggested the Government’s planned income tax cut should be brought forward to next year, if circumstances allow.
He told The Times the “best way” to finance public services is to have a “dynamic, low-tax economy that generates growth”.
He added: “That growth will naturally lead to rising revenues for the state that can fund the services.
“I’m a low-tax Tory – it’s one of the reasons I’m a Conservative and I want to see a small state that focuses on delivery of the things that really matter. And I want to see taxes as low as possible.”
Labour’s shadow chancellor said her party would cut the national insurance rise “right now” if it were in government, instead of focusing on income tax cuts.
Rachel Reeves told the BBC’s Sunday Morning: “The thing that we should be doing right now is reversing that national insurance increase.
“That would be my priority if I was chancellor today because it is taking money out of people’s pockets.
“The Government have got this sort of hokey-cokey where they are increasing national insurance but say they are going to reduce income tax.
“National insurance is a tax only on the income that you get through going out to work, that is why it is such a damaging tax increase right in the middle of a cost-of-living crisis.”
Ms Reeves said Labour has plans for a “stronger and more secure economy so we don’t just lurch from crisis to crisis”.
In an attempt to set his premiership back on track in the wake of a bruising confidence vote, the Prime Minister used a keynote speech on Thursday to reaffirm his commitment to cut taxes and set out plans to extend the right-to-buy.
Speaking in Blackpool, he said he wants to reduce the tax burden sooner rather than later and slash the size of the state.
But he later refused to give further details of his tax-cutting plans, saying: “On what Rishi (Sunak) and I are talking about on fiscal measures, you are just going to have to contain your impatience there.”
Mr Johnson said that the Government is “strongly inclined to stimulate further growth, further productivity with tax cuts as and when they become sensible”.
He added: “The cost of housing is a big chunk of expenditure, transport is a big chunk, childcare’s a big chunk, energy is an ever-growing chunk, but tax is the biggest of all and we certainly aim to get that down.” | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-10908767/Second-Cabinet-minister-backs-earlier-tax-cut-afford-it.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-06-12T12:37:17Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-10908767/Second-Cabinet-minister-backs-earlier-tax-cut-afford-it.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | true | 8 |
Jay White recently fired shots at AEW star Hangman Page after capturing the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship at NJPW Dominion 2022.
The Switchblade battled it out with Kazuchika Okada in the epic-length main event match, which ended with White shockingly dethroning The Rainmaker. The result has opened up endless possibilities of dream clashes for the upcoming show, AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door, on June 26th.
During the press conference following the show, Jay White blasted The Anxious Millenial Cowboy for running away from NJPW to join Tony Khan's company alongside his friends. The 29-year claimed that the former AEW World Champion left the Japanese promotion because he knew he couldn't "shine" there.
Jay White also pointed out that he has defeated Hangman Page both times they met inside the squared circle and that his streak would never end.
"That goes to you as well Hangman. You think you're the sh-- now because you had to run off, have your friends create a new company for you so you could shine there 'coz you couldn't f------ shine here. Want me to remind you, singles action, 2-0 to the motherf------- Switchblade and that zero is never gonna change. Never." said Jay White
AEW and NJPW fans would be looking forward to seeing how Hangman Page reacts to White's recent comments.
Hangman Page has set his sights on winning the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship
On this week's episode of AEW Dynamite, Hangman Page competed in a match against NJPW star David Finlay, which he won after some fun-and-forth action. In a promo following the bout, The Anxious Millenial Cowboy challenged the then IWGP World Heavyweight Champion, Kazuchika Okada.
Moreover, Adam Cole, who was present in the commentary box, also expressed his desire to chase the NJPW gold, saying he was more deserving of it than Page. Now that not The Rainmaker but Jay White is the champion, the dynamic has drastically shifted heading into the June 26th show.
While Page could still challenge White, Cole, who was allied with the NJPW star on AEW TV, finds himself in a sour spot. Fans could get some clarity over the IWGP World Heavyweight Title contender situation in the coming days.

SANTA CLARA — Time to predict the 49ers’ season-opening roster, with three months to spare.
The offseason program provided clues on which backups might stick, and that’s because half the starters didn’t practice while in rest, recovery or “reward-me” mode.
Contractual issues in the coming weeks should lead to some exits (Jimmy Garoppolo, Dee Ford) and some contract extensions (Deebo Samuel, Nick Bosa).
Here is who looks in (and out) for the 53-man roster:
QUARTERBACK
IN (2): Trey Lance, Nate Sudfeld
OUT: Jimmy Garoppolo, Brock Purdy
WHY: Lance looks at ease transitioning to the QB1 role, from his fluidly running the offense to admirable leadership from a 22-year-old novice. Garoppolo’s shoulder rehabilitation got him excused from minicamp, and although he’ll be welcome at camp if healthy, he’s more likely to play elsewhere rather than vie for his old job or a reduced-salary, backup role. Sudfeld won’t push Lance more so than help tutor him with new QB coach Brian Griese.
RUNNING BACK
IN (6): Elijah Mitchell, Kyle Juszczyk (FB), Jeff Wilson Jr., Ty Davis-Price, Trey Sermon, Jordan Mason
OUT: JaMycal Hasty, Josh Hokit (FB)
WHY: Mitchell’s rehabilitation from minor knee surgery looks good, but the 49ers always need a deep bench here. Davis-Price didn’t practice the past two weeks so that stunts his bid for the QB2 role, but pads and live contact will determine the true depth chart in camp. Mason looks like the next undrafted rookie in line to the Shanahan system.
WIDE RECEIVER
IN (5): Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, Jauan Jennings, Danny Gray, Ray-Ray McCloud
OUT: Malik Turner, KeeSean Johnson, Marcus Johnson, Austin Mack, Taysir Mack, Tay Martin
WHY: Samuel did not get traded ahead of the draft and showed for minicamp, where he didn’t practice but did light work on the side. Aiyuk and Jennings should ascend along with Lance. McCloud will work from the slot and as a returner, and Gray is a deep threat who was shut down last week with a hamstring issue. The sixth spot is up for grabs, and Turner gets the early nod here.
TIGHT END
IN (3): George Kittle, Charlie Woerner, Ross Dwelley
OUT: Tyler Kroft, Tanner Hudson, Jordan Matthews, Troy Fumagalli
WHY: Same unit as ever. Kittle and Woerner worked on the side then watched practices. An intriguing battle is ensuing for the No. 3 (possibly No. 4) spot. Dwelley is the incumbent, but Kroft and Hudson made acrobatic catches in minicamp, and Matthews’ conversion from wide receiver is a year improved. Perhaps someone aces Kittle’s co-hosted Tight End University in Nashville June 20-22.
OFFENSIVE LINE
IN (9): Trent Williams (LT), Aaron Banks (LG), Jake Brendel (C), Daniel Brunskill (RG/C), Mike McGlinchey (RT), Colton McKivitz (T/G), Spencer Burford (G), Jaylon Moore (G/T), Nick Zakelj (G)
OUT: Justin Skule, Keaton Sutherland, Sam Schluester, Dohnovan West, Jason Poe, Alfredo Gutierrez
WHY: Juggling the interior spots could be an ongoing matter through camp, especially if a veteran free agent arrives to push Brendel (and possibly Brunskill) for the center spot. This unit lost Laken Tomlinson and Tom Compton but enough choices remain in the homegrown garden. Those missing the cut should be practice-squad locks.
DEFENSIVE LINE
IN (11): Nick Bosa, Arik Armstead, Javon Kinlaw, Samson Ebukam, Drake Jackson, Kerry Hyder Jr., Kevin Givens, Charles Omenihu, Hassan Ridgeway, Kemoko Turay, Maurice Hurst.
OUT: Dee Ford, Kalia Davis (injury list), Jordan Willis, Alex Barrett, Kevin Atkins
WHY: Bosa might be right in saying the 49ers will need extra spots for this deep unit. Ridgeway and Turay arrived in free agency with $1 million guarantees, so will that assure them a roster spot? Ridgeway may be more than insurance for Kinlaw’s knee recovery.
LINEBACKER
IN (4): Fred Warner, Dre Greenlaw, Azeez Al-Shaair, Oren Burks
OUT: Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles, Curtis Robinson, Jeremiah Gremmel, Marcelino McCrary-Ball, Segun Olubi
WHY: Burks, formerly the Packers’ special-teams ace, led the linebacker drills while the incumbent core didn’t practice because of rest or rehabilitation. Robinson also saw first-team reps, so the Stanford product is in the mix. McCrary-Ball is an undrafted darkhorse to follow
CORNERBACK
IN (6): Charvarius Ward, Emmanuel Moseley, Ambry Thomas, Sam Womack III, Deommodore Lenoir, Tariq Castro-Fields
OUT: Jason Verrett (injury list), Darqueze Dennard, Ka’Dar Hollman, Qwuantrezz Knight
WHY: The final cuts should be fascinating, and health could factor into that. Dennard’s been their No. 1 nickel back, but it’s hard to see the 49ers parting with any of their drafted prospects. Lenoir might be on the shakiest ground. Hollman might have the tenacity to ascend. Special teams could be the ultimate decider if someone emerges as a gunner. Verrett’s knee recovery could have him ready for camp, but the 49ers may exercise caution and start him on the physically unable to perform list.
SAFETY
IN (4): Jimmie Ward, Talanoa Hufanga, Tarvarius Moore, George Odum
OUT: Leon O’Neal Jr., Tayler Hawkins
WHY: O’Neal is an exciting, undrafted rookie who’d likely have to beat out Moore (coming off 2021 Achilles tear) or Odum (special-teams ace from Colts).
SPECIALISTS
IN (3): Robbie Gould (K), Mitch Wishnowsky (P), Taybor Pepper (LS)
OUT: None
WHY: They’re rolling with the same cast as the past two seasons, until further notice. | https://www.paradisepost.com/2022/06/12/49ers-projected-53-man-roster-minicamp-ends-early-big-issues-remain/ | 2022-06-12T12:43:11Z | https://www.paradisepost.com/2022/06/12/49ers-projected-53-man-roster-minicamp-ends-early-big-issues-remain/ | false | 11 |

Community sport volunteer honoured for swimming, tenpin bowling duties
By Carolyn Webb
Jamie Taafe learnt to swim at Sunshine pool as a child and for the past 58 years the place has been a part of his life.
Taafe, 67, who has held many volunteer roles at Sunshine Swimming Club, including being its president since 1996, can still be found poolside at the now Sunshine Leisure Centre every Sunday, 34 weeks a year.
He helps organise, and is the starter for, swimming races for young people aged from six to 18 years.
He says the idea is “to give every swimmer an opportunity to succeed”, but also for swimming to be a social as well as physical outlet for them, just as it has been for him.
Taafe and his wife, Dee, still have friends they met at the club 40 years ago.
It’s not Taafe’s only voluntary interest – he is also the chair of Tenpin Bowling Victoria.
And so in the Queen’s Birthday Honours, Taafe receives the OAM (Medal of the Order of Australia in the General Division) “for service to swimming, and to tenpin bowling”.
An unusual combination, but he says he loves helping people participate in two sports you can play all your life.
Taafe, a retired financial accountant, said he felt humbled, surprised and grateful at the Queen’s Birthday honour.
He grew up less than one kilometre from the-then outdoor 50-metre Sunshine pool, in Melbourne’s west. There are now two 25 metre pools – one outdoor and one indoor.
Jamie’s father, Tom Taafe, was the swimming club president for 25 years and the club rooms are named after him. Jamie was a club member from 1963 at age nine.
He raced and trained there from the age of 11, and as a teenager he worked as a lifeguard at the pool. Roles he’s held since at the club include publicity officer, learn-to-swim co-ordinator and water polo organiser.
Taafe met his wife, Dee, also a competitive swimmer, in 1976 at a ball organised by district swimming clubs. The couple started helping run junior sport after their own two children, Jason and Kirsten, began racing at Sunshine pool.
The couple started helping organise tenpin bowling after their kids started playing that sport at the now-defunct Sunshine Bowl.
Taafe’s involvement in tenpin bowling has risen from local to national level and he has accompanied Australian junior bowling teams to compete overseas. He reckons that community engagement “gives you a few more years on your life span” but he also realised that sport wouldn’t function without someone organising it. “Somebody needs to do it.”
He said getting an honour was hard to put into words. “It’s not the reason we volunteer, but I’m certainly honoured and grateful that my peers thought enough of me to nominate me for the award.” | https://www.watoday.com.au/national/victoria/community-sport-volunteer-honoured-for-swimming-tenpin-bowling-duties-20220608-p5as5l.html?ref=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=rss_national | 2022-06-12T13:08:03Z | https://www.watoday.com.au/national/victoria/community-sport-volunteer-honoured-for-swimming-tenpin-bowling-duties-20220608-p5as5l.html?ref=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_source=rss_national | false | 9 |
