The love of guns is really a lust for dominance
Jamaica: Do we even need the Second Amendment anymore? “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” At the time the Second Amendment to the Constitution was ratified, this country was looking to keep its hard-won independence. It needed every citizen to be able to help assist in this effort. So a “well regulated Militia” (fighting force) was needed.
The country was so young that the government could not afford to purchase these arms for every militia member, so they had to supply their own — that’s why they needed the right to “keep” and then “bear” arms. The conditions that necessitated this amendment, “the security of a free State,” do not exist anymore. We have a defense budget in the hundreds of billions of dollars. We have the National Guard, state police, city police and sheriffs’ departments all over this country to secure any state, individually or collectively.
Let’s be clear: The need for guns in this society has nothing to do with keeping ready a “well regulated Militia” necessary to the security of a free state, but everything to do with the fears, violence and need for control and dominance that has been the cornerstone and foundation of this country, which has its roots in lies, theft and slavery, all to benefit one segment of society. With that track record, the fear of retribution for their sins is never far from the people of that segment’s minds. Darnell Ray

Brooklyn: Though the Senate managed to compromise on a gun deal, the only thought that comes to mind is: One small step for man, but not a very big step for mankind. Neil S. Friedman
Regulate guns like cars
Leeds, England: Why are owners of guns not compelled to take out insurance, the same as you have to have car insurance? It would mean victims could claim against it. The premiums would be so high that few could afford the cost. When cars were first marketed, one had to have a man with a red flag walking in front to ensure safety. Women could not vote. Cars now have to be insured and have to abide by many laws. You cannot drive a car into a school building so why are you permitted to take a gun? The NRA’s long-worn-out argument that you need a gun to be safe has been proven to not be based on fact. If it were true, America would have no deaths due to guns by comparison with the U.K., which has strict gun laws and fewer deaths per year than New York has in a month. Sydney Marsh
Who decides?
Kew Gardens: Recently, there have been calls to use a person’s mental health as a criterion for purchasing a firearm. On face value, that criterion sounds reasonable, but in a society in which inequality and injustice exist, that decision can vary widely. In the past, homosexuals, women who disobeyed their husbands, people of color who were considered impudent and children who condemned priests for abusive behavior were branded as mentally unwell. At a recent rally, former President Trump proposed stopping gun violence by bringing back mental institutions to house those considered too mentally deranged for gun ownership, a statement for which he was loudly cheered. It reminded me of mass incarceration. Before this nation goes down that path, we need to hear more details about the evaluative process and whether the data on which the decision is based is consistently applied. Glenn Hayes
Almost had it
San Francisco: To Voicer Chris Lee: I stand corrected. But please allow me to complete your “logical” thought because, obviously, banning people is just silly. “The correct conclusion is to ban people” — dangerous people — from accessing guns. Jimmy Layton
Out of place
Ozone Park: Daily News, can you be so tone-deaf and insensitive to use the terms “deadliest arms” and “thoughts and prayers” in a sports article (”Two aces up their sleeve,” June 11) when victims of recent shootings are still being buried? C’mon!! John Landers
Bank-breaking baseball
Manhattan: As a diehard Yankee fan, I am so disheartened and disgusted at the thought that a good percentage of Yankee games will not be available for me to see. I’m already paying for the YES network and the greedy owners are now mandating that I purchase streaming services in order to see every game. And most of those games are on Fridays when people are home and want to watch. To top it off, my husband and I have also purchased a 12-game package which cost a small fortune due to the ticket prices and the outrageous concession costs. When is the fan going to get a break? Barbara Powers
Turn-off phrase
The Daily News Flash
Carle Place, L.I.: This year’s Yankee TV broadcasts are unlistenable. Is there a cliché that Carlos Beltran has yet to use? To paraphrase a Sunday nugget: That kind of an error can hurt a team. What kind can’t? The Mets TV team is miles better. Rudy Rosenberg
One-woman show
Manhattan: To Voicer Gene O’Brien: I’m with you 100% regarding Alvin Bragg and other district attorneys who seem to care more about the criminals they’re supposed to prosecute than the people who are victimized. Unfortunately, voters in our great state have no means to recall elected officials outside of refusing to re-elect them. Fortunately, the one person who can fire him is up for re-election herself, and if Gov. Hochul won’t do it, there are others looking for her job who will. It would behoove her to think about that. Andrew Ritchie
Came to light
Brooklyn: To Voicer Lydia DiBello: Did you actually watch the first hearing? There was quite a bit of new testimony and information, including the fact that numerous members of Trump’s own administration, including his attorney general, told him in no uncertain terms that he had legitimately lost the election and should stop spreading lies to his supporters. What will it take to persuade you to stop drinking the Kool-Aid at Fox News and just watch and listen to the witnesses who are under oath telling us that Trump tried to overthrow the election and stop the peaceful transfer of power, which is the hallmark of American democracy? Lee Crespi
Implicit bias
Dumont, N.J.: Having Donald Trump investigated by this lynch mob of left-wing hacks led by loony Nancy Pelosi is about as fair as having Barack Obama be investigated by the KKK. Do any of these moron Democrats ever do anything but investigate Trump? What a farce! John Scott
Wrong number
Rahway, N.J.: In regards to Voicer Raymond Klett’s statement that the Jan. 6 insurrection was perpetrated by about 100 people, I can understand how he could grossly underestimate the number of people involved. After all, his side believes the world is only 6,000 years old. Robert Varady
Examples, please
Staten Island: I know the Daily News chooses the letters we write in and prints the ones that encourage contrasting views and opinions. I would like to ask any Voicer who voted for President Biden to admit that their life now is better and easier than it was almost a year-and-a-half ago when Biden took office. Explain why you are satisfied with your choice. I welcome your responses. Glenn Stevenson
Not a given
Greenlawn, L.I.: For a better understanding of today’s worldwide inflation, take a look at corporate profits. Price increases have been imposed on consumers by many corporations unaffected by the current difficulties. They are real: oil and gas shortages, blocked supply lines, rising input prices, dock-bound shipping, the war in Ukraine. But they do not affect all companies, or all companies equally. Still, prices are rising across the board, including by corporations not affected by the current problems. This is easy to pull off during inflation. Profits soar. That’s the reality for us at the gas pump and grocery store.

Blackmon ends Rox's HR drought, continues climb up club list
After game-tying homer in 7th, Colorado goes on to fall to Cleveland in 10th
DENVER -- Baseball is unfeeling. On a night Charlie Blackmon should have been celebrated by Rockies history, and envied by his teammates, he ended Tuesday night’s 4-3, 10-inning loss to the Guardians at Coors Field -- at best -- numb.
Blackmon tied the game in the seventh with a long overdue two-run homer off formidable Cleveland right-hander Shane Bieber. The home run moved Blackmon into a tie with Dante Bichette for sixth in club history with 201 homers. In the here and now, he ended the third-longest homerless stretch in Rockies history -- 266 plate appearances.
The last Colorado homer before Tuesday was by Blackmon himself -- a three-run pinch-hit homer into McCovey Cove that fueled a 5-3 win over San Francisco on June 7. By no means was it just for the Rockies to then lose because Blackmon was stuck on the third-base line in the bottom of the 10th inning.
Standing on third as Colorado had runners on the corners with no outs, Blackmon broke for the plate on Brendan Rodgers’ tapper in front of the plate. Cleveland closer Emmanuel Clase flipped the ball to catcher Austin Hedges, and Blackmon was stuck. Even when Hedges let the ball slip from his hand momentarily, Blackmon couldn’t see it in time to seek safety. Hedges threw to Clase covering the plate, and then Clase tossed it to third baseman José Ramírez, who tagged Blackmon for the out. Meanwhile, Yonathan Daza couldn’t go from second to third, and Rodgers was stuck at first.
A C.J. Cron double play later, the game was over. Yes, it was a real bummer for Blackmon.
“If Charlie was to have it over again, he probably would’ve held his ground,” Rockies manager Bud Black said.
But go back to the homer drought, and you get Colorado's current predicament.
“That was a big homer that tied the game,” Black said. “But overall, our power is lacking. When you look at our roster, and you look at the names and what they’re capable of on the power side, right now we’re not producing the power that we anticipated.
“But there’s still a lot of baseball left for that to happen. Whether the guys reach their expected home run totals, we’ll see. But I do think there’s more home runs in there from the group. A number of guys are below their power numbers that you might want to see right now.”
Blackmon hit only 13 homers last year, a drop-off after averaging 27 per season from 2014-19. This year, he's already up to 10 home runs.
Cron is at 14 homers, although a recent slump is partially responsible for him having none over his past 43 at-bats. Cron had an RBI triple on Tuesday, and he seems to be nearing his best swing.
But Ryan McMahon has had 95 at-bats since his most recent homer, and Randal Grichuk is homerless over his past 81 at-bats. Sam Hilliard, full of power potential, is 0-for-20 with 10 strikeouts this month. Catcher Elias Díaz, who did not play Tuesday, had 18 homers last year, but he has only two and a .204 batting average in 2022.
The guy brought in to help a team that struggled with the long ball last year, Kris Bryant, has none -- mainly because he has played only 17 games because of two stints on the injured list with a back injury. Bryant hit on the field before Tuesday’s game, but there is no timetable for his return.
Right-hander Antonio Senzatela held the Guardians to three runs (two earned) in six innings while providing the Rockies' ninth quality start over their past 11 games. Yet, Colorado is 4-7 in those contests.
Since May 13, the Rockies have had 15 quality starts in 31 games, but they are 11-20 during that stretch.
Not coming up with big swings makes close games more likely, and winning them less likely. In June already, Colorado has had six extra-inning games and won only one.
“It’s something we’ve lacked a little bit -- in the offseason, it was something we targeted,” Cron said. ”The power hasn’t been there for us, especially playing in this ballpark. We’re facing good pitchers night in and night out. It’s tough to string together a lot of hits.
“We’ve got really good hitters on this team. It’s going to come, I’m confident in that. Once it comes, it’s going to stay for quite a while.” | https://www.mlb.com/rockies/news/charlie-blackmon-ends-rockies-home-run-drought | 2022-06-15T07:53:11Z | https://www.mlb.com/rockies/news/charlie-blackmon-ends-rockies-home-run-drought | true | 1 |
WASHINGTON (AP) — Michael Harris II and Travis d’Arnaud each had three hits and homered for the second straight game, and the Atlanta Braves connected five times in their 13th straight win, 10-4 over the Washington Nationals on Tuesday night.
Atlanta hit back-to-back homers for the third straight game, this time doing it twice. D’Arnaud and Marcell Ozuna went deep in the third inning, and Orlando Arcia and Harris followed in the sixth.
Dansby Swanson also homered for the Braves, who have clubbed 10 home runs in two games and 32 during the winning streak, the longest in the majors this season.
“It’s a good feeling,” Harris said of the streak. “You feel like you’re on top of the world, honestly. Keep winning every night. Just doing what we need to on the field.”
It’s Atlanta’s best stretch since it won 14 consecutive games from July 26 to Aug. 9, 2013.
Braves starter Max Fried (7-2) struck out the first five Washington batters. He went 5 2/3 innings, allowing four runs on six hits while striking out six and walking one. Jackson Stephens pitched the final three innings for his second save.
Harris, who began his rookie campaign just four games before the streak began, extended his hitting streak to seven games and raised his average to .317 while finishing a triple shy of the cycle. The lefty homered to left center for the second straight night.
“I’ve been very impressed. Just the instinct. That ball he hit to left field was getting it,” manager Brian Snitker said. “Just to see that bat speed and the strength and all is pretty impressive. He’s done a fine job of competing up here.”
Earlier in the day, Atlanta placed second baseman Ozzie Albies (fractured left foot) on the 60-day injured list and Washington placed right-hander Stephen Strasburg (stress reaction of the ribs) on the 15-day injured list.
Ehire Adrianza had two hits for the Nationals, who have lost three straight.
Jackson Tetreault (0-1), called up from Triple-A Rochester to make the start in place of Strasburg, allowed seven runs on nine hits over four innings in his major league debut.
“He’s got good stuff. I think he was a little bit amped up,” manager Dave Martinez said. “He put together some pretty good at-bats. They fouled off a lot of pitches. Next outing will be much better because I think he’ll settle down a little bit.”
Swanson homered with one out in the first, his second in two games and the 11th of his career at Nationals Park.
D’Arnaud’s line-drive, three-run shot made it 5-0 in the third and Ozuna followed with his second homer in two days, a shot into the Braves bullpen in left center.
After the Nationals closed to 7-3, Arcia and Harris provided some breathing room.
“It’s kind of our identity,” Snitker said. “We’re not a team that bunches hits. We hit homers. We are what we are.”
HOME AWAY FROM HOME
The Braves have won a franchise-record 10 straight games at Nationals Park, the final eight in 2021 and the first two this season. Overall, the Braves have won 17 of their last 20 in Washington.
ROSTER MOVES
In addition to Tetreault, the Nationals called up right-hander Reed Garrett and left-hander Francisco Perez from Triple-A Rochester. Garrett pitched two scoreless innings in his first Major League outing since 2019 with the Tigers. Washington designated infielder/outfielder Dee Strange-Gordon for assignment.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Braves: Albies, who left Monday’s game in the fifth inning, was being evaluated on Tuesday. “Hopefully he heals quick and we get him taken care of,” Snitker said.
Nationals: Martinez said Strasburg’s injury is related to the surgery for thoracic outlet syndrome he had last summer. … RF Juan Soto was given a day off after slipping and banging his right knee against the corner of the dugout bench Monday night. Martinez said an X-ray of the knee was clean.
UP NEXT
Braves: RHP Spencer Strider (2-2, 2.35 ERA) faces the Nationals for the second time this season after allowing one run in 3 1/3 innings of relief on April 11.
Nationals: RHP Erick Fedde (4-4, 4.87 ERA) is 0-4 with a 10.80 ERA in eight games – seven starts – against the Braves.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The wear and tear from back-to-back seven-game series seems to be taking its toll on the Boston Celtics at the worst possible time.
Tired legs have led to shots falling short down the stretch in back-to-back losses that have left the Celtics on the brink of elimination heading into Game 6 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night in Boston.
The Celtics missed 11 of 15 shots in the fourth quarter of a 104-94 loss to the Golden State Warriors in Game 5 on Monday night.
“I had a couple shots that were short,” star Jayson Tatum said. “I just got to not fade as much. Use my legs. You’re going to be a little more tired in the fourth than you are in the first quarter. You got to get your legs a little more under you on a couple of those shots. Give yourself a chance.”
The Celtics are the 12th team in NBA history to win Game 7s in back-to-back series before the finals, with nine of the previous 11 losing their next series.
The latest loss mirrored the 107-97 defeat in Game 4 when the Celtics shot 30.8% in the final quarter, with Tatum missing four of five shots in both games and missing two free throws on Monday night.
“Part of that could be fatigue,” coach Ime Udoka said. “Expended a lot. Obviously, him playing 44 minutes, he was one of our main guys rolling. When he got it going in the third, we rolled him a little bit longer there. The bench production wasn’t as sharp as usual, so we ran Jayson longer. Some of that fatigue and decision making could play a part in the fourth quarter.”
The Celtics have had to ride Tatum hard this postseason after sweeping Brooklyn in the first round. Boston then needed seven games to beat Milwaukee in the second round, including a road win in Game 6, and seven against Miami in the Eastern Conference finals capped by a Game 7 road win.
That has led to Tatum playing 943 minutes already this postseason, the most for a player since LeBron James played 960 in 2013 for Miami.
“That probably has something to do with the misses,” Udoka said. ”Not only free throws but some of his 3-pointers being off a bit.”
Tatum isn’t alone in struggling in the fourth quarter. Running mate Jaylen Brown went just 1 for 4 in the fourth quarter Monday with both stars playing more than 44 minutes.
“I wanted to be on the floor,” Brown said. “Ime trusted me to be out there. Over the course of the game, we made some good plays. We were in it. I felt like we just couldn’t get over the hump.”
Now the Celtics will try to change their fortunes back home in Game 6 on Thursday night.
If the Celtics do manage to pull off the comeback and become the 10th team to overcome a 3-2 finals deficit and the fifth to do it without both games at home, it would cap a historic playoff run.
Only one team has ever won three Game 7s in a single postseason, with the Lakers doing it in 1988, beating Utah, Dallas and Detroit at home on the way to a repeat title.
Boston would have to do it by winning two Game 7s on the road, something that has never been done in a single postseason.
“You better be confident, right?” Tatum said. “We ain’t got to win two in one day. We just got to win one game on Thursday. We’ve been in this situation before. So it’s not over. Got to win on Thursday. That’s all we got to worry about right now.”

Aroldis Chapman said he “felt no discomfort at all” in his left Achilles during his bullpen session Tuesday at Yankee Stadium, as he looks to return from the tendinitis that has sidelined him since May 24.
He’s scheduled to throw another bullpen session, followed by a live batting practice.
Pitching coach Matt Blake noted Chapman was hitting 96-98 mph during the 25-pitch session. He added the left-hander had “B, B- command, which is better than what we’ve been getting.”
Chapman is looking to regain his usual form, which has evaded him for much of the season.
“We’re focused on trying to streamline his delivery to home plate,’’ Blake said. “He’s made a lot of progress the last week or two as he focuses on things in his throwing program and tries to get a feel for what he’s working on.”
Chapman was in a horrific stretch before being shut down. He had allowed runs in five straight appearances, with opponents getting to him for six earned runs, nine hits, three walks and a pair of homers over just 3 ²/₃ innings.
Asked if the Achilles played a role in all those results, Chapman said: “It can be tough, but you understand being a professional athlete, you have to deal with things like that sometimes. You’ve got to toughen up and do your best. I’m trying to put this behind us and am feeling good.”
Clay Holmes has thrived in the closer’s role in Chapman’s absence.
Another missing reliever, Jonathan Loaisiga, threw on Monday and Tuesday as he recovers from right shoulder inflammation that has kept him on the IL since May 23.
“He’s doing well,’’ manager Aaron Boone said of Loaisiga, who has so far been unable to approach the success he had last season.
Another potential bullpen member, Domingo German, is scheduled to throw a three-inning live batting practice on Wednesday in his comeback from right shoulder impingement.
If that goes well, a rehab assignment may not be far behind. That’s when the Yankees plan to determine how best to use the right-hander when he is able to return.
Josh Donaldson missed the opener of a three-game series against the Rays on Tuesday night to serve his one-game suspension. The ban was handed down for Donaldson’s “Jackie” comments to White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson last month, though the Yankees third baseman’s appeal resulted in his fine getting cut in half, from $10,000 to $5,000.
Donaldson had been suspended and fined for what MLB termed “disrespectful” language towards Anderson, who referred to himself as ”today’s Jackie Robinson” in a 2019 Sports Illustrated article.
DJ LeMahieu started at third base, with Matt Carpenter at DH.
Both Boone and Carpenter said he could be used in the outfield “in a pinch.” Carpenter has barely played the outfield since 2012.
Carpenter has done all his pregame work at first base, second and third.
Catcher Jose Trevino was back in the lineup after sitting out Sunday with a minor back issue.
Boone said he’s “not too worried about” Trevino’s back and wanted to take advantage of the day off Monday.
Still, Trevino has seen his playing time increase as he has been more productive.
“We’ve seen Jose earn more opportunities to play more than earlier in the year, but [Kyle Higashioka] is gonna get his days,’’ Boone said. “Hopefully that’s something that serves both well.” | https://www.thehamdenjournal.com/sports/yankees-aroldis-chapman-felt-no-discomfort-after-bullpen/223992/ | 2022-06-15T07:55:46Z | https://www.thehamdenjournal.com/sports/yankees-aroldis-chapman-felt-no-discomfort-after-bullpen/223992/ | true | 2 |
UN Commissioner Navi Pillay never uttered the word “apartheid” during her presentation on June 13 to the United Nations Human Rights Council (HRC) in Geneva, Switzerland. After all, the term only appeared once as a passing reference in the report by the HRC’s latest commission to investigate alleged Israeli violations of international law.
Even so, there is concern that this commission is building upon groundwork laid by others to ultimately brand Israel with the label of apartheid state.
In the past year and a half alone, multiple non-governmental organizations (NGOs) published reports alleging the State of Israel and Israeli officials are guilty of apartheid. The definition of apartheid they used, however, was not based on legal precedent. Instead, it was a gollum designed to serve ongoing campaigns to delegitimize and demonize Israel, according to reports by the watchdog oganization NGO Monitor.
Anne Herzberg, NGO Monitor’s legal advisor and representative to the UN, participated in a panel discussion at the 50th annual HRC gathering on Monday. “Lest anyone think, ‘Oh, apartheid was not in this report, it’s not on the agenda anymore’ – it is clear that that is on the UN agenda,” she said. “They are just building up their case for it.”
Judging by Israel Foreign Minister Yair Lapid’s response to what is being called the Pillay Report, Herzberg’s apprehension is not off the mark.
“In the coming year, we’re expecting a discourse that is unprecedented in its poison and radioactivity,” Lapid said in a press briefing. “Calling Israel an apartheid state was a slowly creeping trend for a very long time, and in 2022 it will be a real threat.”
The NGO-UN Information Pipeline
When Human Rights Watch released a report in 2021 accusing Israel of being an apartheid state, it called for the establishment of a commission of inquiry by the UN to investigate all forms of systemic discrimination or repression based on group identity in israel and the Palestinian Territories. The commission would identify those responsible for persecution and violation of international law, including apartheid, and “collect and preserve evidence related to abuses for future use by credible judicial institutions.” About four months ago, Amnesty International published its own report labeling Israel an apartheid state, saying that the country’s “system of apartheid originated with the creation of Israel in May 1948.”
As Herzberg pointed out on Monday, the language of the Human Rights Watch report is echoed “to a T” in the UN commission’s mandate.
She does not think this is a coincidence.
Many UN officials and reports adopt claims from NGOs without doing any independent verification, she explained, and this means that false claims from an anti-Israel, terrorism-linked NGO can be legitimized with a stamp of approval from the UN.
“The NGOs that are pushing the apartheid report are very active in the COI [commision of inquiry] process and feeding information to the commissioners,” Herzberg said in a May 19 phone interview. “The two campaigns are linked.”
“In terms of the apartheid charge… the campaign is not about establishing two states. It’s not about 1967. It’s not about improving Israeli policy or establishing borders. It’s about attacking the legitimacy of having a Jewish state. It’s an attempt to revert back to a 1948 agenda that paints Israel as illegitimate; it’s for demonizing Israel, it’s against any type of peace process, and it’s just inflaming conflict.”
“The report attacks foundational policies of Israel, making multiple false claims regarding discrimination in order to build a case of racism and so that this permanent COI can later accuse Israel of apartheid.”
David M. Littman, a media and education research analyst at the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis (CAMERA), highlighted a number of factual inaccuracies present in the commission’s inaugural report. For instance, the report claims that Israel controls all of Gaza’s land and sea borders, but Egypt controls Gaza’s southern land border. The authors of the commission know this much, as they reference the southern crossing-point into Gaza in the report itself: “The Government of Egypt indicated its willingness to cooperate with the Commission but has not yet responded to the Commission’s request to access the Gaza Strip through the Rafah crossing.”
Another inaccuracy is the assertion that Palestinians in East Jerusalem are not eligible for Israeli citizenship. He pointed out that in 2019, approximately 1,200 applicants were granted Israeli citizenship. (Times of Israel reported at the time that a slightly greater number were rejected, primarily “because the applicants either can’t prove East Jerusalem is their ‘center of life,’ can’t show Hebrew fluency, or fail to win a recommendation by security authorities.”) The following year, 20,000 young Palestinians became eligible to expedite their requests for Israeli citizenship according to new guidelines put out by Israel’s Interior Ministry.
Even in Pillay’s prepared remarks, a careful listener could find inaccuracies. For instance, she referenced “the continued occupation of Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem and Gaza,” even though Israeli forces withdrew from Gaza more than 15 years ago.
“Given the U.N.’s long history of baseless and bigoted attacks on the Jewish state, expect much more of this dishonesty in the future from this commission,” said Littman.
If the commission’s allegations escalate to accusations of apartheid, this could have repercussions for Israel on the international stage – and for Jews here in America. In fact, a poll conducted by the Jewish Electorate Institute in 2021 found that one-quarter of American Jews already believe Israel is an apartheid state.
“There are a substantial number of younger Jews who accept that characterization,” Kenneth D. Wald, emeritus professor of American Jewish Culture & Society at the University of Florida, told the Jewish Journal in August. “Many of them may not know what apartheid actually was. They don’t remember when there wasn’t an Israel, they don’t remember the Six-Day War. For them, Israel has always been the dominant power in the Middle East. They look at Israel as if it should be a liberal democracy, and it is not. It is an ethnic democracy. For a lot of American Jews and others, that is a different thing to accept.’’

Kanye West took a jibe at Adidas for “blatant copying” of his Yeezy slides after nearly a decade of collaboration.
According to Billboard, Adidas originally showed their new Adilette slides, which will retail for $55, earlier this month, and the 45-year-old rapper isn't pleased.
West recently turned to his Instagram account and shared a post to criticise the shoe manufacturer and its CEO, Kasper Rorsted, for the “fake Yeezys”.

He captioned the post and wrote, "THIS IS YE driving down the same street Kobe passed on Maybe I feel that Mamba spirit right now."
West fired a direct shot at Rorsted, stating, "To Kasper I'm not standing for this blatant copying no more."
He continued, "To all sneaker culture To every ball player rapper or even if you work at the store This is for everyone who wants to express themselves but feel they can't cause they'll loose their contract or be called crazy".
"Bravery is not being afraid Bravery is overcoming your fear for your truth This Ye with the blue paint on my face These shoes represent the disrespect that people in power have to the talent This shoe is a fake Yeezy made by adidas themselves I'm not talking to DC about this either Kasper come talk to me Happy Monday," he added.
The apparel and shoe collaboration between West and Adidas was officially announced in December 2013, with the first collection arriving in February 2015, as reported by Billboard.
The Yeezy Slide was released in 2019, and thanks to the Eva Foam rubber, the lightweight slip-on style footwear exploded in popularity due to its simple, non-sweaty wear, especially in the summer.
In 2020, sales for Yeezy sneakers reached nearly $1.7 billion in annual revenue, netting Yeezy $191 million in royalties, according to Bloomberg.

TOKYO (AP) — Japan and Australia's defense ministers on Wednesday vowed to step up their ties to support democratic values in the Indo-Pacific region and agreed to work more closely with Southeast Asia and the Pacific island nations where China is seeking to expand its influence.
Australian Defense Minister Richard Marles and his Japanese counterpart, Nobuo Kishi, said that region-wide cooperation is necessary to maintain and strengthen the rules-based order in the Indo-Pacific, where there is growing fear that Russia's invasion of Ukraine may embolden China to increase its assertiveness.
The ministers’ talks came just three days after they met in Singapore on the sidelines of the Shangri-La Dialogue security forum.
“It is clear that our region faces the most complex set of strategic circumstances we have had since the end of World War II and what the region does matters,” Marles told a joint news conference in Tokyo after holding talks with Kishi.
“Only by working together can we uphold the rules-based international order, contribute to an effective balance of military power and ensure our region remains stable, peaceful and prosperous,” Marles added.
Kishi said the two ministers shared their concerns about the impact of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. He said they remain strongly opposed to any unilateral change of status quo in the East and South China seas and reaffirmed their commitment to a mutual vision of “a free and open” international order of the seas.
“It is important to strengthen our cooperation with our regional partners, especially with ASEAN and the Pacific islands, to maintain and reinforce the free and open Indo-Pacific,” he said, referring to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.
Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, in a keynote speech at the Shangri-La Dialogue on Friday, promised to provide about $2 billion in development aid, patrol boats, maritime law enforcement capabilities and other assistance to at least 20 Southeast Asian and Pacific island nations — where China is attempting to increase its influence — to help them better guard themselves.
Kishida has pledged to bolster Japan’s military capabilities and spending. However, Japan’s attempt to expand its security role in Asia, where many countries suffered from its aggression during World War II, is a sensitive issue.
Japan and Australia in January signed a reciprocal access agreement to allow their troops to enter each other’s country for training and other military purposes and work more closely together.
Japan sees China’s increasingly assertive military activity in the East and South China seas as a threat in some of the world’s busiest sea lanes.
Japan is especially concerned about Chinese military and coast guard activity in the East China Sea near the Japanese-controlled Senkaku islands, which China also claims and calls Diaoyu. | https://www.registercitizen.com/news/article/Japan-Australia-to-expand-defense-ties-for-17242532.php | 2022-06-15T08:07:20Z | https://www.registercitizen.com/news/article/Japan-Australia-to-expand-defense-ties-for-17242532.php | false | 22 |
Three-time Olympic hammer champion Anita Wlodarczyk has to end her season over injuries sustained when stopping a thief from stealing her car.
Wlodarzcyk, 36, said on Instagram late on Tuesday she damaged a thigh muscle in the recent incident which does not allow her to compete any more in the campaign featuring the world championships in Eugene, Oregon, and the European championships in Munich.
She underwent surgery on the left-leg injury on Monday.
"A lot of work awaits me in rehabilitation ... I will do everything to be back next year," said Wlodarczyk.
The veteran is wasting no thoughts on retirement and already eyeing the 2024 Olympics in Paris, having also returned from injury to become the first woman to win three Olympic athletics golds in a row in one discipline last year in Tokyo.
"I have great motivation to repeat it and in two years to stand on the podium in Paris again," Wlodarzcyk said.
Wlodarczyk has ruled the women's hammer throw over the past years as apart from the three Olympic golds she has four world and European titles each and bettered the world record six times to the current mark of 82.98 metres. | https://www.perthnow.com.au/sport/athletics/oly-champ-sidelined-after-stopping-thief-c-7174999 | 2022-06-15T08:07:54Z | https://www.perthnow.com.au/sport/athletics/oly-champ-sidelined-after-stopping-thief-c-7174999 | false | 3 |
The site is located at the entrance of Woodlawn Park, Ballysimon Road | PICTURE: Adrian Butler
THE NATIONAL planning appeals body is to rule on a plan to build social housing apartments at the entrance to a housing estate in the city.
Goldstar Homes 3 received planning permission from the local authority to redevelop a site of 0.14 hectares at the corner of Woodlawn Park, Ballysimon Road.
Part of the proposals would see the knocking of a single-storey vacant unit, formerly a general store, as well as other structures on the site.
In their place would be a purpose-build housing scheme for older people and those with disabilities.
This would include 15 social housing apartments – six one-bed units and nine two-bed units as part of a three-storey complex.
The former general store has lain idle a number of years, with Tidy Towns adjudicators previously describing it as looking “in a sorry state”.
They also described it as “an old shop in disrepair”.
Council granted conditional planning permission for the development, but seven groups and individuals wrote to the local authority.
One, the Woodlawn Park Residents Association, has now formally appealed the grant of permission to An Bord Pleanala, with a decision due by September.
In their initial objection, the residents group raised concerns over the fact that just six car parking spaces were in place for 15 apartments, and expressed fears this would lead to parking at the entrance to Woodlawn Park.

Following the US government’s call for development of ‘novel corrosion-resistant materials’ to improve waste-to-energy processes, what happens next?
Based on the successful waste-to-energy (WtE) green economy seen in Scandinavia and Japan, governments are now vamping up their investment into this alternative energy source. To support this increased demand, the US Government has identified ‘novel corrosion-resistant materials’ as a key requisite in ensuring that WtE plants run as efficiently as possible.
According to the US Energy Information Administration’s 2020 Report, in 2018, 50% of the USA’s municipal solid waste (MSW) was sent to landfill. While this clearly has detrimental implications for the environment, it is also a drastic waste of potential resources.
Although in the same year the USA burned 12% of its MSW to generate energy, this figure pales in comparison to other countries such as Japan and Scandinavia (including Denmark, Norway and Sweden), which burned 74% and 53% of their MSW respectively. The UK also has room for improvement in its handling of MSW, having burned 38% in the same year.
Given the huge environmental and economic benefits the WtE process affords, and indeed has been demonstrated in other countries, governments are now poised to make significant investment into this green technology.
Coatings And Composites Are Key Assets
To support this growth, in its 2019 Waste-to-Energy Municipal Solid Wastes Report, the US Department of Energy said: ‘Several R&D opportunities exist to reduce operating costs and increase revenues in existing incinerators facilities…’. This includes the development of ‘novel corrosion-resistant materials’. The report goes on to say how the development of these types of corrosion solutions ‘…can reduce operating costs of incinerator systems by reducing the frequency of system maintenance.’
These anti-corrosion systems are required for not just ‘Improving waste-to-energy conversion in existing facilities’, but also, given the growing demand for WtE sites, for ‘developing technologies for next generation facilities’.
Considering the myriad of benefits WtE plants can offer, ‘corrosion-resistant materials’ play a fundamental role in the WtE process. As such, it is imperative that materials are sought that not only protect key WtE assets, but also significantly increase the efficiency of WtE technology for the long term.
How does a Waste-to-Energy plant work?
In the WtE incineration process, carbon rich household waste is burnt, releasing thermal energy used to heat water inside a boiler subsequently generating high-pressure steam. This then drives a steam turbine that converts the steam energy to electrical energy, which is then relayed back to the grid. Excess steam can also be piped out and used to heat local homes and businesses.
Key advantages of Waste-to-Energy generation
According to the Confederation of European Waste-to-Energy Plants (CEWEP), WtE plants in Europe can supply 18 million inhabitants with electricity and 15.2 million inhabitants with heat. This is based on 90 million tonnes of remaining household and similar waste that was treated in 2015 in Europe.
In terms of offsetting carbon emissions, the CEWEP states that depending on the fuel being replaced, (gas, oil, hard coal or lignite) between 10-49 million tonnes of fossil fuels emitting 24-49 million tonnes of CO2, would not need to be used by conventional power plants to produce this amount of energy.
Based on the success of WtE plants seen in Europe, the 2020 No Time to Waste report created by the UK think-tank, Policy Connect, outlines the following key advantages that could be achieved should the UK increase its investment into WtE.
For environmental benefits, the report details how in 2030 alone, if 80% of MSW is sent to WtE rather than to landfill, this will allow the UK to avoid four million tonnes of CO2 emissions. This figure equates to the same emissions created from over nine million barrels of oil.
For energy output, the report details how if 80% of residual waste goes to WtE by 2030, this would generate enough low carbon heat to support over half a million homes. This is the equivalent to Birmingham, or Edinburgh and Glasgow combined, or Liverpool and Manchester.
Outlining the financial savings made by investing in WtE technology, the report identifies how the UK currently spends £280M annually on shipping ‘non-recyclable’ waste overseas. This is money that could otherwise be spent on building domestic infrastructure. For example, with this amount of capital, 10 plastic recycling facilities could be built in the UK each year, which in turn would see a significant rise in green jobs available across the UK.
In a foreword to the report, 13 cross-party politicians said: ‘The need for safe and effective removal of our waste has never been more important. As the UK embarks on our Build Back Better movement, we must no longer simply bury or export the problem.’
They continued: ‘Instead, we should, as other European economies do, treat residual waste as a valuable resource to produce lower carbon heat and energy, alongside a focus on achieving our important recycling targets and investing in innovative recycling technology.’
How To Reduce Costs And Improve Efficiency
Belzona Polymerics has been developing and honing its range of polyurethane and epoxy repair materials and corrosion-resistant protective coatings since 1952. With R&D teams based in both the UK and the USA, the departments have over a century’s worth of combined knowledge in the field of polymer technology.
In terms of supporting growing WtE infrastructure, this extensive knowledge and experience is critical. It ensures that repair and protection formulations are perfectly attuned to the needs of, what can be, aggressive and challenging operating environments.
Belzona provides the following range of ‘corrosion-resistant’ repair composites and industrial protective coatings that are specially developed for ‘reducing the frequency of system maintenance’ and improving efficiency of key WtE equipment.
For the solid handling part of the WtE process, Belzona’s 2000 series of polyurethane systems can be deployed to repair and protect ripped conveyor belts. The flexible rubber repair material, 2311 (SR Elastomer), is specially developed for emergency and permanent applications where high build, durability, elasticity, high abrasion and tear resistance are required.
Screw conveyors can also be coated using the 1800 series products to protect the screw shaft and fins from abrasion damage.
Designed for the repair and protection of equipment damaged by fine particle abrasion, Belzona 1812 (Ceramic Carbide FP) is an epoxy composite material combining extremely hard closely packed abrasion resistant ceramic aggregates in a polymeric binder.
For the thermal treatment and conversion stages, pipes damaged by erosion-corrosion can be repaired with SuperWrap II. Engineered to provide superior strength, corrosion and chemical resistance for pipe wrap and patch repairs, this repair system is an alternative solution to replacing defective metallic substrates.
For pump coatings, Belzona 1300 systems can be deployed, such as Belzona 1341 (Supermetalglide). This technology is designed to increase pump efficiency by using hydrophobic technology to repel process fluids and reduce turbulent flow. Efficiency increases of up to 7% have been recorded on new equipment and up to 20% on refurbished equipment.
For the basic process flow stage, incinerator fasteners can be lubricated using the high-temperature lubricant, Belzona 8211 (HP Anti-Seize). This is a pre-assembly material for metal components subject to high temperature. It prevents seizure, corrosion, pitting, galling and thread distortion.
For chemical containment areas such as chemical bunds and chemical tank linings, Belzona 5892 and Belzona 1391T can be specified. These systems provide excellent erosion-corrosion protection at elevated temperatures along with resistance to a wide range of process chemicals, such as the lime used in flue gas desulphurisation units.
Conveyor plates handling the hot incinerator bottom ash can be protected against elevated temperatures with Belzona 1300 series systems such as Belzona 1391T. This ceramic filled epoxy coating provides erosion and corrosion resistance to high temperature equipment operating under immersion up to 130°C.
Specially developed for pipe linings and pipe insulation repairs, Belzona 5800 series systems can be deployed. Belzona 5871, for example, can be used to protect operators from direct heat contact burns. A solvent-free system, Belzona 5871 provides a thermal insulation barrier with corrosion protection as well as thermal and sub- zero ‘cool-to-touch’ properties.
Belzona 1000 series systems are frequently used for general repairs to heat exchangers’ components such as tube sheets, flange faces, water boxes and end covers. For example, the composite repair system Belzona 1111 (Super Metal) provides outstanding protection under many varied service conditions.
To protect exterior chimneys from damage caused by weathering and acidic ash, Belzona 5100 cladding systems meet the requirements. For example, the urethane coating Belzona 5111 (Ceramic Cladding) is designed for the protection of metallic and masonry surfaces against physical, chemical and bacterial attack.
A combination of Belzona 2211 (MP Hi-Build Elastomer) and Belzona 3111 (Flexible Membrane) can be applied to protect roof joints. These systems have been proven to leave roofs protected for longer periods of time than can otherwise be achieved through conventional welding methods.
As all of these systems can be carried out without the need for hot work, this facilitates a fast, safe and efficient repair and protection solution.
Supporting Transition To Net Zero
Given the imminent growth of WtE technology, it is essential that appropriate ‘corrosion-resistant materials’, including composite repair systems and protective coatings, are deployed. It is through their installation, that ‘existing facilities and developing technologies’ in the WtE sector can perform to their optimum potential for the long term.
In turn, this supports a reduced carbon future, in line with the 2050 net zero carbon guidelines set out in the Paris Agreement, as well as significant economic savings for governments worldwide. | https://www.engineerlive.com/content/cutting-corrosion-wte-plants | 2022-06-15T08:14:55Z | https://www.engineerlive.com/content/cutting-corrosion-wte-plants | true | 1 |

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — A new study has found that Facebook has failed to catch Islamic State group and al-Shabab extremist content in posts aimed at East Africa as the region remains under threat from violent attacks and Kenya prepares to vote in a closely contested national election.
An Associated Press series last year, drawing on leaked documents shared by a Facebook whistleblower, showed how the platform repeatedly failed to act on sensitive content including hate speech in many places around the world.
The new and unrelated two-year study by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue found Facebook posts that openly supported IS or the Somalia-based al-Shabab — even ones carrying al-Shabab branding and calling for violence in languages including Swahili, Somali and Arabic — were allowed to be widely shared.
The report expresses particular concern with narratives linked to the extremist groups that accuse Kenyan government officials and politicians of being enemies of Muslims, who make up a significant part of the East African nation’s population. The report notes that “xenophobia toward Somali communities in Kenya has long been rife.”
The al-Qaida-linked al-Shabab has been described as the deadliest extremist group in Africa, and it has carried out high-profile attacks in recent years in Kenya far from its base in neighboring Somalia.
The new study found no evidence of Facebook posts that planned specific attacks, but its authors and Kenyan experts warn that allowing even general calls to violence is a threat to the closely contested August presidential election. Already, concerns about hate speech around the vote, both online and off, are growing.
“They chip away at that trust in democratic institutions,” report researcher Moustafa Ayad told the AP of the extremist posts.
The Institute for Strategic Dialogue found 445 public profiles, some with duplicate accounts, sharing content linked to the two extremist groups and tagging more than 17,000 other accounts. Among the narratives shared were accusations that Kenya and the United States are enemies of Islam, and among the posted content was praise by al-Shabab’s official media arm for the killing of Kenyan soldiers.
Even when Facebook took down pages, they would quickly be reconstituted under different names, Ayad said, describing serious lapses by both artificial intelligence and human moderators.
“Why are they not acting on rampant content put up by al-Shabab?” he asked. “You’d think that after 20 years of dealing with al-Qaida, they’d have a good understanding of the language they use, the symbolism.”
He said the authors have discussed their findings with Facebook and some of the accounts have been taken down. He said the authors also plan to share the findings with Kenya’s government.
Ayad said both civil society and government bodies such as Kenya’s national counterterrorism center should be aware of the problem and encourage Facebook to do more.
Asked for comment, Facebook requested a copy of the report before its publication, which was refused.
The company then responded with an emailed statement.
“We’ve already removed a number of these pages and profiles and will continue to investigate once we have access to the full findings,” Facebook wrote Tuesday, not giving any name, citing security concerns. “We don’t allow terrorist groups to use Facebook, and we remove content praising or supporting these organizations when we become aware of it. We have specialized teams — which include native Arabic, Somali and Swahili speakers — dedicated to this effort."
Concerns about Facebook's monitoring of content are global, say critics.
“As we have seen in India, the United States, the Philippines, Eastern Europe and elsewhere, the consequences of failing to moderate content posted by extremist groups and supporters can be deadly, and can push democracy past the brink,” the watchdog The Real Facebook Oversight Board said of the new report, adding that Kenya at the moment is a “microcosm of everything that's wrong” with Facebook owner Meta.
“The question is, who should ask Facebook to step up and do its work?” asked Leah Kimathi, a Kenyan consultant in governance, peace and security, who suggested that government bodies, civil society and consumers all can play a role. “Facebook is a business. The least they can do is ensure that something they’re selling to us is not going to kill us.” | https://www.nhregister.com/business/article/Study-Facebook-fails-to-catch-East-Africa-17242540.php | 2022-06-15T08:24:28Z | https://www.nhregister.com/business/article/Study-Facebook-fails-to-catch-East-Africa-17242540.php | false | 41 |
Lock your doors may be the best crime fighting advice the El Campo Police can offer citizens after announcing 96 percent of vehicle burglaries in the city didn’t require a broken window.
Other techniques could be considered, Police Chief Gary Williamson told Council Monday, but those, he added, will take funding.
The juvenile curfew already in place helps, he added.
District 3 Councilman David Hodges recommended using high-grade portable cameras to capture criminals in the act. These cameras, he said, could be moved around the city targeting specific areas as needed.
“If you need funding come back to us,” Hodges told Chief Williamson, a sentiment echoed by District 4 Councilman John Hancock Jr.
The councilmen said something needed to be done.
“My fear is someone seeing something in their driveway and a gunfight in going to happen,” Hodges said.
The obvious smart move would be for citizens to start locking their vehicles, District 1 Councilwoman Anisa Vasquez said.
“The bulk (of the motor vehicle burglaries) are crimes of opportunity,” Williamson said, adding its not unusual for thieves to target a street checking door handles on vehicles, stealing items inside the unlocked ones.
So far this year, ECPD officers have responded to 33 burglary of a motor vehicle calls, most of which took place on the city’s northwest side. Of those, 26 were unlocked, one involved the theft of an item from an open truck bed, four were reported as being locked but had no broken windows or damage from a forced entry.
Only in two cases did the burglar damage the vehicle to gain access.
Crime Stoppers tips help officers as do video recordings. Extra patrols have been assigned in the areas with the highest number of incidents.
It’s going to take the citizens of El Campo to make a difference, District 2 Councilwoman Gloria Harris said. “You cannot stop crime if in the community is not in line to help you.”
The police chief said he’d like additional funding to increase officer pay, asking council to consider that during budget talks. In the last year and a half, the department has had 10 staffing changes from retirements to dismissals, he said. | http://www.leader-news.com/news/article_8a76c49c-ec31-11ec-bbbe-8f68a1fb7f20.html | 2022-06-15T08:26:14Z | http://www.leader-news.com/news/article_8a76c49c-ec31-11ec-bbbe-8f68a1fb7f20.html | false | 1 |

- The rare sight of grass came as a surprise for many who shared their comments
A family has shared the amazing two year transformation of their country NSW backyard after enduring many years of drought.
The photos taken in the historical far west NSW town of Silverton, near Broken Hill, captured the huge change in weather the area witnessed since 2020.
Like much of the land in outback NSW, John Blore and his family are used to bone-dry dusty conditions.

However, it just goes to show how effective a decent amount of rainfall can make to this barren land.
After receiving a few years worth of rain, the farmland has been transformed from red dust, to grass as far as they eye can see.
This is quite a rare sight in this part of the NSW, highlighted by one person who commented: 'Truly amazing here in the outback... never seen it so green.'
In the most recent image, you can see the same young boy from the photo shot two years earlier playing on the swing.
Another added: 'Marvelous how much effect a bit of rain can make... You can even see how much the boy has grown.'

In the original Facebook post by Mr Blore with the dry conditions, one person wrote: 'Some beautiful colours, but bloody difficult for a lot of people to comprehend how tough people on the land are having it.'
'I reckon everyone is praying for some decent widespread rain. To help the country rejuvenate and give some respite for all you people on the land. I hope you and your family are all coping ok.'
The forecast for Silverton is partly cloudy, with temperatures in the mid-to-late teens for the remainder of the week. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10917483/Two-years-rainfall-transforms-Silverton-NSW-backyard-dust-grass.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-06-15T08:31:16Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10917483/Two-years-rainfall-transforms-Silverton-NSW-backyard-dust-grass.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | true | 2 |
Shipments of feed ration from Russia landed into Irish ports in recent weeks, despite a ban on Russian-flagged ships docking in EU ports under EU sanctions over the war in Ukraine.
Two boats were granted special permission to land in Ireland, the Minister for Agriculture confirmed to RTE this morning. The exemptions were given by the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment, RTE reports.
The boats were carrying barley, soya hulls and wheat on board, which are used for dairy, pig and poultry rations.
Some 3.5m tonnes of the 5.5m tonnes of feed rations are imported and there are concerns around the availability of animal feed this winter.
McConalogue there was capacity for some derogations within the EU sanctions, in cases for food in particular, but that there had been no derogations provided recently.
"There has been some (derogations) for movements which had been in train and operationalised in advance of the sanctions."
Such derorgations, he said, were something that the Government would only do in "very exceptional" circumstances...and we will be working to avoid and minimise any shch situations."
The Minister for Agriculture Charlie McConalogue earlier this year set up a feed and food security committee to address concerns over the availability of animal feed this winter.
The Minister also introduced a tillage scheme in recent weeks to encourage more farmers to grow more tillage crops, to reduce Ireland's reliance on imported grains.
Further, the Minister recently announced a silage scheme, giving farmers up to €1,000 to grow more silage this year, again to ensure there are adequate stocks of cattle feed this winter on Irish farms.
ICMSA President Pat McCormack said there are concerns about feed availability but that the tillage scheme didn't "go the necessary journeys".
Asked if there was an ethical dilemma for Irish farmers that feed imports were coming in from Russia, McCormack said "it's well beyond the farmers' pay scale that ethical issue, that's an ethical issue for the Government, how comfortable the Government are, if they feel that it passes the various protocols of trade at this given time, then Irish farmers will use that feed. It's up to the Government."
Figures revealed by the Farming Independent showed that initial plantings of tillage crops would increase by just 5pc this year, despite the push by the Minister. | https://www.independent.ie/business/farming/news/russian-ships-with-grain-for-farm-rations-landed-in-ireland-after-eu-ban-41755033.html | 2022-06-15T08:32:42Z | https://www.independent.ie/business/farming/news/russian-ships-with-grain-for-farm-rations-landed-in-ireland-after-eu-ban-41755033.html | true | 1 |
Leadership provided by the chairmen of the General Assembly’s Appropriations and Revenue committees — Rep. Jason Petrie, R-Elkton, and Sen. Chris McDaniel, R-Ryland Heights — over the past couple of years resulted in building arguably the strongest Budget Reserve Trust Fund, otherwise known as a “rainy day” fund, in Kentucky’s history.
Until 2021, the situation was just the opposite.
According to the Tax Foundation’s assessment in April 2020 of the health of states’ savings accounts, Kentucky was one of five states with less than a week’s worth of operating costs in reserve.
While it’s unlikely any state would have to operate solely on those funds, economists consider it a meaningful approach toward determining the adequacy of states’ reserves and making apples-to-apples’ comparisons of the capacity of their economies to weather downturns without resorting to tax increases or deep spending cuts to fixed priorities.
While states growing their savings has become a trend across the nation, Kentucky’s growth is most impressive.
The Pew Charitable Trusts in an update last month reported that reserves grew in more than two-thirds of all states during the 2021 fiscal year with Kentucky standing out by growing its fund to nearly two full months’ worth.
This far outdid California, which, with an increase of 40 days, demonstrated the second-greatest increase in the amount of time it could operate solely on its savings.
Combining the analysis from the Tax Foundation in 2020 and Pew’s look at the FY ’21 figures, it’s apparent that Kentucky has put the rainy day fund pedal to the medal — climbing from a reserve fund which, if it hadn’t been for New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Kansas, would have been the nation’s weakest in 2020 — to its 12th-strongest last year.
Pew’s research confirms this dramatic jump, showing how Kentucky quickly rose past the 50-state median during the two most recent budget years since having less than a week’s worth of reserves less than 18 months ago.
Let’s keep that pedal right where it is, ensuring Kentucky remains much-better prepared than in the past to deal with future inevitable revenue fluctuations and unforeseeable circumstances.
While the progress made is praiseworthy — including changing the discussion in Frankfort from how much of the state’s reserves to spend to, instead, how much to save — the next step is to develop a statutory framework so that the rainy day fund becomes more than an account with money tucked away.
It needs to become “an ongoing commitment with clear guidelines on how to manage it, in good times and in bad,” writes Andrew McNeill, visiting policy fellow at the Bluegrass Institute who’s collaborated with lawmakers to make strengthening reserves, and thus improving Kentucky’s economic competitiveness with benchmark states, a high priority — on par with tax reform.
Even the legislation passed during this year’s legislative session designed to ultimately phase out Kentucky’s individual income tax through a series of 0.5% reductions — starting with dropping the rate from its current 5% to 4.5% in January — indicates that maintaining a beefy rainy day fund is a continuing legislative priority by requiring that reserves amount to 10% of certain General Fund receipts at the end of a budget year.
Both House and Senate leaders praised the work done by the committee chairmen in leading the way toward a budget that uses surplus dollars to bolster Kentucky’s reserves.
However, the greatest praise of all will come from future generations who reap the benefits of their forebearers having put in place — in statute — a framework ensuring that sufficient reserves weren’t just a one-time gift but an enduring buffer against economic uncertainty.

THUMRAIT AIR BASE, Oman--Accurate Test 22, an Agile Combat Employment exercise, took place May 15 - 19, 2022. The exercise provided command and control operations (C2) from the 379th Air Expeditionary Wing, Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar, the opportunity to simulate employing missile strike early warning capabilities for the first time, in a combat environment versus operating via remote warning systems.
“Every previous iteration of Accurate Test relied on established bases like Al Dhafra to warn of incoming ballistic missiles, we wanted to see if it was possible to localize that capability” said Senior Master Sgt. Edward Cartossa, a C2 operations specialist assigned to the 379th Air Expeditionary Wing.
Thirty six hours after setting up C2 operations at Thumrait Air Base, with a bare bones team of three Airmen, one being a multi-capable Airman from the command support staff career field, they conducted a test for the localized missile warning.
“We ran the test with the Combined Air Operations Center and we received a notification within less than a minute of when the CAOC identified the threat,” said Cartossa. “We were then able to push out a warning to all of Thumrait Air Base’s population within less than 5 minutes after receiving notification.”
Prior to conducting this test there had been no baseline established for this operation, but the expectation was to communicate the threat within five minutes. Without having this test to go by, the expectation of a five minute notification was high.
“What we were able to prove during this Accurate Test 22 was that the Agile Combat Employment concept, for us, will work,” said Cartossa. “We are capable of providing round the clock C2 operations without a large personnel footprint, without a pre-established facility, and in less time than was previously expected.”

Which stainless steel mixing bowl is best?
Few things work as hard in the kitchen as a stainless steel mixing bowl. Lightweight and durable, these workhorses are responsible for some of life’s most memorable meals. From food prep to service, they can handle it all.
For sheer utility and performance at a shockingly low price, the Vollrath Economy Mixing Bowl Set is the choice of professional cooks.
What to know before you buy a stainless steel mixing bowl
Stainless steel mixing bowl set vs. open stock
Experienced cooks and bakers know that you need more than one size of mixing bowl in the kitchen. There are two ways to acquire them.
- As part of a set: A stainless steel mixing bowl set is a good option if you are stocking your kitchen from the ground up and doing it on a budget. Even though the initial cost may be more, each bowl costs less per piece than if you buy them one at a time.
- Open stock: If you are particular about the size of each bowl you choose, or you are on a limited budget, buying from open stock may work better for you. Over time this approach costs more, but it’s less of an upfront expense. On the other hand, this is also a good strategy if you are looking to buy high-end pieces and can only afford one at a time.
Size
If you do opt for open stock, consider which sizes you will need. Mixing bowls range from 1 quart or less to as large as 18 quarts. Keep in mind that smaller bowls won’t be able to handle large mixing tasks, but oversized ones take up a considerable amount of space.
Number of bowls
When choosing a stainless steel mixing bowl set, aim for the number of bowls that work best for your cooking style. Sets contain as few as two and up to eight or more bowls.
What to look for in a quality stainless steel mixing bowl
Sturdy construction
Stainless steel is known for its durability and longevity, but not all stainless is created equal. Look for 18/10 stainless steel. This is the percentage of chrome to nickel (18% to 10%) that offers the most substantial construction available. If these feel too heavy for your taste, 18/8 is also a good choice.
You may also see these two grades of stainless steel referred to as 304-grade stainless.
Interior measurements
While eyeballing is a perfectly legitimate way to measure some ingredients, others require more precision. Stainless steel mixing bowls with interior measurements make it easy to pour the correct amount into the bowl directly — no more dirty measuring cups.
Wide lip
A wide lip gives the cook a secure handhold for vigorous whipping, beating and folding. These are also valuable when it comes to transporting a full mixing bowl from one work surface to another.
Secure base
Look for bowls that are flat on the bottom for stability. Even better, some feature a rubberized nonstick coating to keep them from sliding across the counter.
Tight lids
While most stainless steel mixing bowls won’t have lids that are secure enough to turn upside down, look for versions that are tight enough to keep food fresh during storage. Lids are also handy for food prep as they allow you to stack one bowl on top of another as you work.
How much you can expect to spend on a stainless steel mixing bowl
If you buy a set, the price is influenced by the number of bowls and the quality of the materials. Expect to spend $20-$69.
Stainless steel mixing bowl FAQ
Can stainless steel mixing bowls be washed in the dishwasher?
A. Each manufacturer may have slightly different care instructions, but for the most part, stainless steel mixing bowls are dishwasher-safe. Of course, larger bowls need to be hand-washed, as most dishwashers cannot accommodate them. Use degreasing dish soap and hot water to clean, then rinse completely and dry before storing.
Do not use harsh abrasives to scrub stuck-on food. Soak in hot water, and then use elbow grease and a plastic dish scrubber instead.
How do you get the most use out of your bowls?
A. These are one of the most versatile tools in your kitchen.
- Place on top of a pan of simmering water to create a double boiler.
- Use them to dress salad and then serve it.
- Grease and use to proof dough. In some cases, bread can be baked directly in the bowl.
- Whip fluffy egg whites and cream.
- Mix and serve batch beverages.

Luis Suarez has reportedly offered his services to Italian club Juventus as the legendary striker searches for his next club.
Aston Villa have been heavily linked with a move for Suarez, who is a free agent having left Atletico Madrid at the end of last season. The 35-year-old played alongside Steven Gerrard during his Liverpool days and remains in contact with the Villa boss.
Having won numerous titles during a distinguished career with Ajax, Liverpool, Barcelona and Atletico, Suarez wants to sign for another European club before considering a move to America. It has now been claimed that Suarez has offered himself to Juventus.

Suarez came close to joining Juventus two years ago before he signed for Atletico and could now finally ply his trade in Serie A. La Gazzetta dello Sport reports Suarez has contacted Juve officials over a move to Turin.
Villa were first linked with Suarez in January, shortly after Philippe Coutinho joined the club on loan from Barcelona. Coutinho has since made his transfer to Villa Park permanent for £17million, and Boubacar Kamara, Diego Carlos and Robin Olsen have joined him in a busy opening to the summer window for the club.
Gerrard played down those reports in January by saying: "We’re not after a centre-forward in this window. That’s as clear as I can be. I think during these windows everyone puts two and two together and a lot of names are bandied around and stuff, but I obviously know Luis extremely well.
"He’s top class and has been a world-class footballer throughout his career so I understand the links but we’re not after a centre-forward, whether it be Luis or anybody else in this window." | https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/aston-villa-luis-suarez-transfer-24229813 | 2022-06-15T09:00:28Z | https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/aston-villa-luis-suarez-transfer-24229813 | true | 1 |

It’s absurd that we even have to make an endorsement when it’s so obvious the incumbent, Dr. Leon Kelly, is the only candidate qualified to be El Paso County Coroner. But thanks to the current political climate and Colorado’s strange (lack of) requirements for the office, there’s more to unpack here.
At the GOP county assembly in March, Kelly was almost eliminated from re-election by, as he accurately put it, the “completely unqualified far right political activist” Rae Ann Weber. Weber is a family medicine doctor who, unlike Kelly, is unqualified to work as a pathologist, and who admits she’s had two complaints against her medical license for spreading misinformation. Even at the height of the pandemic, she railed against masks, vaccines and COVID restrictions. Her anti-science stance alone should disqualify her from a position which, as Kelly says, “is one of empathy, compassion, service and unbiased scientific fact.”
Kelly has served the county 14 years as a forensic pathologist. He’s triple board certified in anatomic, forensic and clinical pathology — a remarkable level of qualification that enables him to lead a team of death investigators and forensic pathologists, as well as run the state’s only in-house forensic toxicology lab. His rare combination of qualifications saves El Paso County around $600,000 a year because without them, the county would have to hire three people to do his work. The trouble is, state law doesn’t require this level of expertise. Colorado’s one of the few states still clinging to an outdated system that doesn’t require coroner candidates to have any death investigation or medical training in order to run for office — even though only pathologists can do autopsies under state law. “The qualifications to run for the job are so minimal,” Kelly says, “that there is literally no way a layperson could get elected to this position and then actually have anything that they could do or contribute to the office.” Someone like Weber would shuffle papers at best; at worst, she’d destroy the office’s credibility and effectiveness. It’s highly effective thanks to Kelly, who has taken it beyond “here’s what people died from,” into public health work and community efforts against teen and adult suicide, COVID, the opioid crisis and domestic violence.
There is a third candidate in the primaries. Democrat Bridget Garner’s background is in social work and her heart is in the right place; she’s mainly running “in case the Republican party decided to run an extremist candidate … with hyperpartisan views” — like Weber. “I wouldn’t bring conspiracy theories to the office,” Garner says. While Garner would be better than Weber, Kelly is really the only choice. He’s completed more than 4,000 forensic autopsies, led 60,000+ death investigations, testified in hundreds of criminal trials, saved the county millions of dollars, stood up for science in the face of ferocious political pressure, and served as a transformational leader, turning tragedies into catalysts for improvement through community programs. “This job is way too hard — and too depressing, to be honest with you — if you aren’t going to leverage what you’ve learned to make a difference,” he says. Kelly is making a difference, and deserves to be re-elected.
Vote: Leon Kelly

NSW Origin stars Daniel Tupou and Kotoni Staggs have been named in the Mate Ma’a Tonga team for the upcoming Test against New Zealand in Auckland.
Tonga coach Kristian Woolf named a 25-man squad ahead of the June 25 Test, with Tupou named on the wing and Staggs at five-eighth – despite the pair playing for the Blues in last week’s opening Origin match.
Manly second-rower Haumole Olakau’atu and Cronulla centre Siosifa Talakai, who have both been mentioned as contenders to join the NSW squad for Origin II in Perth on June 26, have also been included along with the likes of Jason Taumalolo, Addin Fonua-Blake and Tevita Pangai jnr.
Under international eligibility rules, players can play for both their state and Tonga.
Tonga will be coached by caretaker coach Dean Young for this match with Woolf unavailable because of English Super League duties with St Helens.
Woolf said Tonga had named its strongest available squad as the Pacific nation looks towards providing the best possible squad for the end-of-season World Cup in England.
“We have named a powerful squad that includes experienced players who have helped Tonga to victories in the past,” Woolf said.
“There is also a sprinkling of new players in the squad who will be important as we move forward in a World Cup year and beyond.
If as many of our players as possible are playing representative football next week, the stronger our World Cup squad will be.
Tonga coach Kristian Woolf
“There are players that can play both State of Origin and for Tonga and a decision on where they play will be made by Sunday when both interstate and international teams are selected for next week’s representative matches.
“What we don’t wish to happen is that players who have this dual eligibility are not picked in one squad and then miss out on being available to play in another other team.

Sarah Ferguson says she stands ‘firmly’ by her ‘good, kind’ ex-husband Prince Andrew & says she would do it all again
SARAH Ferguson has broken her silence on ex-husband Prince Andrew as she labelled him a “kind and lovely man”.
The Duchess of York gave a ringing endorsement of the disgraced Royal who continues to rebuild his life after the Virginia Giuffre scandal.
On Monday, Andrew was snubbed from appearing at the Queen’s Order of the Garter service over fears of a "backlash”.
And to many, his immediate role in the royal set-up remains uncertain as experts warn his chances of being welcomed back into full public life continues to be slim.
But this week, his former wife rushed to his defence – vowing to stand by the Prince in his time of need.
“I will stand very firmly by Andrew who is a very good and kind man,” she told Times Radio.
“And that’s what I believe. We are divorced.”
The couple split in 1996 but have remained very close in due part to their children Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie – who have both married in the last four years.
Fergie, as she is more commonly known, has reportedly continued to take up residence at the Royal Lodge in Windsor, Berkshire – frequenting the grounds on a regular basis.
And the Duchess had made no secret about her desire of keeping the York family together – insisting it was “very important” for The Queen.

Quizzed by journalist Mariella Frostup she said: "If I said it was my home. It's a place where we are a united front with the girls. It's their home.
"And now my grandchildren come here and I have always believed in communication, compromise and compassion.
"I have always believed it. I have great faith."
On her wedding 36 years she added: “It was just extraordinary. I think my life is an amazing life.
"I think I've been very lucky. And I am now just beginning my life again. And I think it's pretty cool to be able to say that.”
Andrew has continued to cast a downbeat figure after his reputation was tarnished by his involvement in a civil sexual assault case that was settled in February.
Yet, he had reportedly plotted a royal comeback, having asked his mum to return his patronages and HRH title just five months after he was stripped of them.
The Duke has always strongly denied any claims of wrongdoing.
NO REGRETS
Sarah says she believed in cleaning "your side of the street" and that her former lover could be welcomed back into the fold though “honesty and integrity”.
She told the radio station: "I believe if you clean your side of the street, if you look at your mirror, and you are clear and concise and you know, in your to integrity, that you have done the best job and the best heart with the greatest of intentions, then you hold that line.
“What anyone else does, that's their situation, and they have to clean their own side of the street.”
Amid the scandal, Fergie said she took on an increased role to support her daughters who now care for young tots.
She replied: "Every time I look at my girls, I realise what the secret to good mothering is. Show up. That's it. Show up and listen.
"You turn the telephone off, shut the door, turn the television off, and you say, are you okay? Is it me? Have I annoyed you? What's gone on?
"You know, and you really take away the fear factor because you're so present with them. And I believe that's the secret. That's how I've managed.
"The girls, I mean, how they've coped? Honestly, I take my hat off to them, but I think it's because the three of us, Beatrice, Eugene and I. we're called the tripod and we stay firm to speaking your truth.
"So we speak our truths to each other and by doing it you clean, exactly what I just said through this programme, is you look in the mirror and you clean your side of the street.
“Once you've done that, then is there a problem?” | https://www.thesun.ie/fabulous/8952078/sarah-ferguson-breaks-silence-prince-andrew/ | 2022-06-15T09:19:11Z | https://www.thesun.ie/fabulous/8952078/sarah-ferguson-breaks-silence-prince-andrew/ | true | 4 |

Airtel Xstream Multiplex: India’s First Virtual Cinema In Metaverse
Bharti Airtel is the latest company to jump on the Metaverse bandwagon. The telecom provider has introduced India's first multiplex in Metaverse bringing together Web 3.0 apps and new storytelling technologies to smartphone users in India. The virtual multiplex will offer access to content portfolios from leading OTT partners available on Airtel's application. The Airtel Xstream Premium service costs Rs. 149 per month and is available exclusively to Airtel customers.
What Is Airtel Xstream Multiplex?
Airtel Xstream Multiplex is a virtual viewing platform with access to new content from the leading OTT apps on Airtel's premium Xstream service. The list of OTT apps includes- SonyLIV, ErosNow, Lionsgate Play, Hoichoi, ManoramaMax, Shemaroo, Ultra, HungamaPlay, EPICon, Docubay, DivoTV, Klikk, Nammaflix, Dollywood, Shorts TV. The streaming app recently achieved a 2-million subscriber milestone within 100 days of its launch.
Airtel's integrated media agency- Essence came up with the idea of a virtual multiplex. The telecom provider then roped in Gamitronics, which is known for developing Partynite, a blockchain-powered digital parallel universe. Unlike Partynite, the Airtel Xstream multiplex is a 20-seat multiplex, which will serve as an extension to Airtel's Xstream Premium service.
"The virtual multiplex will enable sampling of top original shows and movies with content pieces such as the first episode of an OTT original or initial minutes of a movie in regional languages", says Airtel. If you want full access to the content, you will need an active subscription to the streaming app.
The idea of a virtual multiplex is very new to the Indian audience as the 'Metaverse' is still a mystery for most. However, Airtel seems quite positive and is aiming to tap into a larger audience with its new venture. The virtual multiplex is also seen as a platform to drive more social engagement from smartphone users.
Metaverse- A World Of Endless Possibilities
A lot is happening in the world of the metaverse. From mansions to shopping malls to virtual cinemas, the possibilities are endless. The idea of a virtual multiplex seems pretty exciting but isn't entirely new.
Korea's top cinema chain- CJ CGV introduced a fully-functional virtual cinemaplex in January 2022. Known as Zepeto CGV World, the full-service metaverse multiplex has a lobby and an auditorium. You can purchase virtual tickets, enjoy digital refreshments, and watch digital content on interactive 4DX seats.
Besides viewing platforms, Metaverse is also home to NFT space and a variety of virtual games. You can interact with other gamers/users with a deeper immersion than in the conventional games ecosystem.
Some popular Metaverse games include Decentraland, The Sandbox, Theta Network, Sushiswap, etc. If you are also fascinated by Metaverse, just like us, you can start with a smartphone app- Sensorium Galaxy. It will give you a sneak peek into the exciting world of Metaverse.

what once was absolutely necessary for our survival
Uh huh. “Sorry, but…”
Funny what a little public shaming can accomplish. It was merely a week or so ago that we were discussing one bakery in California threatening other bakeries for using the term “mochi muffin”, for which the USPTO had somehow granted it a trademark. If you didn’t read the last post and need a quick recap of why this trademark being granted was stupid, “mochi” is merely the name of a rice paste used commonly in Japan around holidays. It’s used to make lots of stuff. A “mochi muffin” is merely a muffin made of mochi, making the trademarked term entirely descriptive. The kind of thing you’re not supposed to be able to trademark.
Well, at the culmination of that last post, I mentioned that there was a decent sized online backlash to all of this. I also mentioned that someone would likely go the legal route to invalidate the trademark at some point. The latter, it seems, won’t occur, because now Third Culture Bakery says it’s going to give the trademark up voluntarily after hearing from the public.
In a social media announcement on Saturday, co-owners Sam Butarbutar and Wenter Shyu called the trademark a “huge oversight” that “ended up being hurtful.”
They said they’ve taken the first steps necessary to release ownership of the trademark, and won’t pursue any trademarks in the future. It’s a major reversal of their position just a few weeks ago, when they described the trademark as an important legal protection for their business. Third Culture secured the trademark in 2018 and has sent cease-and-desist letters to bakeries across the country to demand they stop using the words “mochi muffin.”
Reading between the lines, it’s pretty clear what happened here. The bakery tried to legally threaten other bakeries, got found out by the public, the public got angry, and now the bakery is reversing course. So, while I won’t be pinning any medals on Third Culture for this, this does once again show how public outrage and shaming can, often times, produce better or faster results than going the legal route.
While some of the public backlash was of a variety I wouldn’t condone — such as supposedly harassing phone calls made to its employees while at work — most of it was exactly what you’d expect and want. Angry reviews on Yelp. Notes left on the bakeries social media pages. Other social media groups built up to fight Third Culture’s threats.
Even Third Culture claims that much of the feedback it got was of the constructive type.
Their decision to relinquish the trademark was the result of “thoughtful, meaningful, and constructive emails and notes and letters” received after a Chronicle article detailing the trademark was published two weeks ago. The feedback “guided us to reevaluate what once was absolutely necessary for our survival, but does not serve us anymore,” Butarbutar and Shyu wrote.
Again, this is clearly also Third Culture trying to work the refs that are the public it serves, but the point stands. Activism of this sort works. We need more of it.

what once was absolutely necessary for our survival
Uh huh. “Sorry, but…”
And sadly none of the outrage will carry over to USPTO where it belongs.
It never should have been granted in the first place, so how in the actual fuck did people sign off on it?
Where is the report on how the hell the system failed & what changes have been made to avoid this happening yet again.
IP is supposed to be so important and my FSM they keep fucking it up.
Rounded rectangles, ideas with ‘on a computer’, multiple patents on PB&J, trademarks on crap.
Once upon a time the system was to protect novel ideas, now any asshole with some common cultural thing can grab control of the entire market. (You say poké I say stuff in a bowl thats existed for centuries)
They system has been weaponized to lock in customers, forcing them to use only approved parts only sold by 1 source for a huge markup because… its not like they can go elsewhere.
While that might improve the life of a couple execs, these same execs were threatening to sue people 3d printing parts in the middle of a pandemic that were needed to actually save lives & the companies had no parts to offer.
There is an entire ecosystem in East Texas of cockroaches bleeding anyone they can claim, without bursting out laughing, is infringing on a patent for thing that isn’t remotely anything like the thing they are suing over and they can still win millions.
Some people need insulin to remain alive, yet somehow the price keeps going up in lockstep for the 3 companies producing it… people are dying because something cheap to make has a price set by assholes with IP rights who know those people have 2 options… pay us or die, we don’t care if you die so just pay up.
I’ve always suspected that the people in charge of these approvals give their stamps on a few stupid, silly and irresponsible applications for shits and giggles. Mostly because they don’t have to pay for their mistakes, or fear being penalized for them.
Seriously, though, IP enforcement-related jobs have to have one of the most lenient standards. Imagine working any other job, at the rates where IP enforcers fuck up.
Well that is where the problem is…
a bunch of assholes complained to their congress people about it taking far to long to get their applications approved.
Rather than hire more people, they changed the rules meaning you can’t even google the damn thing to see if its common.
Lo and behold it was a brave new world of shit things getting approved, then lawsuits, then media coverage, but IP is so important we can’t do anything that might slow it down… like make sure its not just yet another PB&J Patent.
Rounded rectangles aka ‘ovals’. 😉
No no no they were rectangles with rounded corners for icons on a screen.
Actual lawsuit against Apple (iirc).
There is a patent on rounded corner rectangles used on displays… what in the holy fuck makes this an innovation worthy of patent protecting for a NPE who makes nothing, does nothing but sue, and extra cash because they got their hands on a shitty worthless patent.
USTPO=Meadow Muffins
they claim they didn’t sue anyone, but their suing Stella and Mochi is public knowledge with the documented case easily found on google. Across twitter and reddit, there are reports of wage thefts and “glee” from the owners when they sent out cease and desists (or rather, their own CFO sent out the letters). Truly all they needed to do was really apologize, but instead chose to be snarky, victimize themselves, and attack the SFC reporter in their Instagram stories. Sad. PS: Their website still advertises “MOCHI MUFFIN” with the (R) trademark symbol. Only time will tell if they’re truly sorry and will change their bullying ways.
Well said! They are just backpedaling, and insincerely might I add. They claimed that they had to trademark mochi muffins to protect themselves. However, they also attempted to trademark 1) butter mochi donut 2) mochi brownie 3) matcha sparkler 4) moffin and more. It is apparent that the only reason why they went down the pathway of trademarking was so that they could block other bakeries from making similar products in an attempt to own the mochi baked goods market. Otherwise, they would have filed the trademark and then sent only 1 cease and desist letter DIRECTLY to the business that they were originally trying to protect themselves from. Instead, they sent cease and desist letters to multiple businesses across the U.S. That is not protecting your business, that is targeting and destroying other business without provocation. This is the most enraging part about TCB’s insecurity and delusion, their marked effort to target small business that could not afford to defend themselves. These businesses have had to acquiesce and change their product name from mochi muffin to something else like mochi cake which is confusing to their customers and community. Imagine having to rename your ravioli dish and call it gnochhi instead. That kind of customer confusion monetarily impacts these small businesses negatively, and TCB does not acknowledge that at all. Instead they play the victim, a chapter out of the narcissistic playbook. Pitiful. Absolutely pitiful. I echo other comments that state that TCB has not removed their trademark from their site or their social media content. Also, they continue to claim that they invented mochi muffins, that it is their original concept. That is completely false, untrue, ludicrous, and asinine. As long as TCB continues to craft an ownership narrative around mochi muffins, we in the Asian community will keep telling the truth of mochi’s TRUE origin in an effort to respect those who sacrificed and paved the way for our current Asian-American opportunities in the U.S.

Er, no, guys. What is absolutely necessary for your survival is to sell products people want to buy, not trademark terms similar to ‘cheese puffs’ and ‘grape soda’.

For a phone about which nothing (ha!) is known, the Nothing phone (1) is generating quite the buzz.
Ever since the company announced that it will reveal the smartphone on July 12, rumours, leaks about specifications and purported phone designs have abound, so much so that the company officially showed off how the transparent back of phone (1) will look like in a tweet.
Nothing founder Carl Pei said in a tweet, "Leaks are harder to contain nowadays and many of you have been waiting for a long time. So here it is. This is phone (1) design. More to come. Tune in on 12 July." and shared the image.
Bold. Warm. Full of soul.
A return to instinct.This is phone (1).Tune in on 12 July to hear all about it: https://t.co/FEJL4Jb2Aw pic.twitter.com/5XUbvo8dwZ— Nothing (@nothing) June 15, 2022
This is the first time the phone has been revealed in its entirety. Over the past week, after it announced the launch date, Nothing has been drip-feeding social media with small teases, most of them prominently featuring parrots. Even the initial teaser image with the launch date is clearly a parrot's plumage.
In fact, one company official, sending me a text over WhatsApp recently, used a parrot emoji and said, "Let's make tech fun again."
What do parrots have to do with tech, or with the Nothing phone (1)? I have no clue. But take a look at all the teasers Nothing has put out in recent days.

What we do know for sure is that the Nothing phone (1) will have a transparent back, a frame made from completely recycled aluminium, wireless charging support and a dual rear camera set up. The company has also announced that the phones it will be selling in India and will be made in India.

China's internet search engine giant Baidu Inc is in talks to sell its controlling stake in iQIYI Inc (IQ.O), China's answer to Netflix, in a deal that could value all of iQIYI at about $7 billion, two people with knowledge of the matter said.
Baidu, which owns 53% of iQIYI and holds more than 90% of its shareholder voting rights, plans to sell all its holdings in the Chinese video streaming services firm, said those two people and another two sources familiar with the matter.
Nasdaq-listed iQIYI has a market value of $4 billion. Baidu's targeted valuation of $7 billion for the whole company in its divestment would represent a price of about $8.13 per share compared with its latest close of $4.67.
The four people with knowledge of the plan declined to be identified due to confidentiality constraints.
The divestment plan, not previously disclosed by Baidu, comes after the firm deemed iQIYI to be a non-core asset, and as it seeks to sharpen its focus on developing its capital-intensive artificial intelligence and autonomous driving units, said the first two sources.
Baidu, whose businesses range from internet search to electric vehicles, with expansion into cloud services, robotaxis and autonomous driving in recent years, has tapped Bank of America (BAC.N) to work on the potential sale, said the second pair of sources.
Baidu didn't respond to a request for comment, while Bank of America did not offer any immediate comment.
"This is purely market rumour," iQIYI said in an emailed statement to Reuters, without providing further comment.
The stake sale plan drawn up by Baidu, worth nearly $50 billion by market value, comes against the backdrop of China's regulatory crackdown since late 2020 on firms from technology, private education and other sectors, which hammered their shares and forced some to scale back expansion in non-core areas.
The iQIYI stake has drawn initial interest from a number of financial sponsors and state-owned companies, said three of the four sources, with Hong Kong-based private equity firm PAG among them.
China Mobile (0941.HK), the world's largest mobile network operator by subscribers and owner of streaming service Migu Video, is also among potential buyers, two of the people with knowledge of the matter said.
PAG declined to comment. China Mobile did not respond to a request for comment.
If Baidu achieves its valuation target, that would represent a premium of more than 100% to iQIYI's average share price over the past three months of $3.97. The streaming firm's shares have lost 70% in the past 12 months amid a broader sell-off in Chinese tech shares.
Terms of the deal have not yet been finalised and are subject to change, the sources said. | https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/world/chinas-baidu-in-talks-to-exit-streaming-firm-iqiyi-valued-near-7-billion-8689611.html | 2022-06-15T09:50:02Z | https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/world/chinas-baidu-in-talks-to-exit-streaming-firm-iqiyi-valued-near-7-billion-8689611.html | true | 7 |

Our hotel in Soho, the Karma Sanctum, was nicely secluded from all the hustle and bustle, but like most places in London's West End, was only a stone's throw away from all the shops, restaurants and exciting attractions my wife and I had planned to visit.
Both Soho and Carnaby are world-renowned parts of our capital and go-to destinations for the best retail and dining experiences, while they are also favourite haunts for the rich and famous, but before checking in for our weekend stay, it was Carnaby - the birthplace of Swinging London in the 60s - where we first landed for a browse around the shops.
And there are many to choose from, including a mix of well-known fashion brands and unique independent stores such as Aubin, TOAST, Samsoe Samsoe, Nicce, Han Kjobenhavn and Annie's Ibiza, the latter being frequented by the likes of Kate Moss, Rita Ora and Paris Hilton.
After an early start, a lot of walking and with the weather warming, the midday lunch booking at Tapas Brindisa didn't seem too early, and in the Spanish-like temperatures, it only seemed right to quench our thirst with a refreshing jug of sangria while perusing the menu.
Kicking off with the delightful 'Croquetas de dia' (Croquettes of the day), we were more than happy to be guided by our waitress, who brought us a steady flow of beautiful dishes to share, including the tasty 'Navajas' (razor clams), 'Chorizo de Leon', 'Patatas Bravas' and my personal favourite, the 'Gambas al Ajillo' (king prawns).
After washing it all down with a 'digestif' of 'Patxaran', a sloe-flavoured Spanish liqueur, there was time for another stroll along Carnaby Street to admire the recent art installations marking the Queen's Platinum Jubilee, with a glistening crown embellishing the usual Union Flag and two platinum disc archways at both ends of the street.
The stylish Karma Sanctum hotel, on Warwick Street, has clear rock star vibes and we were immediately impressed as we were warmly greeted in the strikingly colourful 'Hendrix-inspired' reception area.
Our bedroom - a spacious deluxe double - was in the higher echelons of the building just one flight down from the rooftop terrace, which has a 24-hour bar and alfresco Hydro Spa for night owls wanting to keep the party going.
Dining is enjoyed in the sophisticated Wild Heart Bar & Shokudo, a place that embodies the creative spirit of the hotel with its trendy subterranean cocktail bar and Japanese restaurant featuring innovated street food dishes and sake menu.
For us, pre-dinner drinks were at newly-opened cocktail venue Nightjar which, based on Shoreditch's original 'speakeasy' bar, has quickly become a Carnaby hidden gem.
After after an initial struggle to find it, we eventually settled down for two hours of slow-sipping relaxation, listening to the musical tones of a live pianist as we were taken on a mixologist's journey from pre-prohibition times to the post-war era.
Our chosen creations included the crisp and floral gin-based Ermine, an aromatic and refreshing London Mule, the vodka-inspired Cascara with nutty and coffee notes and the full-bodied whisky-based Nightjar Boulevardier.
With appetites whetted and the night still young, we set off for dinner at one of Soho's newest Indian restaurants - Kricket - where we tried not to make our hunger too obvious as we patiently watched the chef preparing our food in the open theatre kitchen.
As with most top Indian restaurants, it's all about the great spicy flavours and our picks from Kricket's mouthwatering seasonal sharing menu didn't disappoint as we gorged on dishes including grilled butternut squash with makhani sauce, Cornish sole with Goan prawn butter, Keralan fried chicken and date and pistachio kulcha naan.
After a good night's sleep in our super king-size bed, it was an early morning start and an eggs-inspired hotel breakfast with a couple of lattes before more retail therapy.
Our last port of call was for a really unique lunch at the small, but popular Ugly Dumpling restaurant on Newburgh Street, where a fusion of Western and Eastern flavours transformed the humble dumpling from an Asian street snack into a sit-down dining sensation.
Bringing street food into restaurants is a growing trend and Ugly Dumpling has got it spot on with its simple, but delicious menu offerings as we dined on the 'classic' and 'new favourites' platters which included flavours of aromatic duck, prawn and chive, satay chicken, cheeseburger and mushroom and truffle. To our surprise, there were sweet versions too featuring nutella and pecan pie, which were heavenly.
Back at the hotel to pick up our bags we said goodbye to 'Jimi' one last time and headed to Piccadilly Circus for the start of our journey home, knowing full well that we'd be back to explore more of alternative London again soon.

For a Double Deluxe room at Karma Sanctum Soho, prices can vary from £180-£285 a night depending on the day.

Muslim-Muslim ticket: Tinubu breaks silence, reveals running mate’s region
The All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, has reacted to rumours of picking a Muslim as his running mate.
Tinubu, who condemned such rumour, said he intends to pick a Northern Christian as his running mate.
He gave the clarification while addressing journalists at the APC governorship rally in Ekiti State yesterday.
Tinubu distanced himself from the rumours, stressing that the carriers were undemocratic elements that are already threatened at his imminent victory in the coming presidential election.
“The VP slot belongs to the Northeastern region and particularly the Christians, but consultations are yet ongoing as to who will be decided,” he said.
Tinubu assured Nigerians that no group, institution or person can impose a running mate on him. | https://dailypost.ng/2022/06/15/muslim-muslim-ticket-tinubu-breaks-silence-reveals-running-mates-region/ | 2022-06-15T09:58:32Z | https://dailypost.ng/2022/06/15/muslim-muslim-ticket-tinubu-breaks-silence-reveals-running-mates-region/ | false | null |
DUBAI, UAE, June 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The global crypto market continues to decline. The APR of BTC in financial products on other crypto exchanges has been as low as about 5%, compared with 10%-20% in a bull market. Cryptocurrency players lost confidence, but a principal and interest-guaranteed financial product recently launched by AEX Global, a digital life service provider - "Smart Savings" quickly attracted the attention of crypto whales. According to AEX Global's asset management team, the amount of the first two rounds of Smart Savings has been fully subscribed in 20 minutes after launching. Plenty of V8 users invested hot coins including BTC, USDT, DOGE, and LTC into Smart Savings on AEX in a bear market, which is the evidence that they are bullish about the cryptocurrency industry in the long run and think highly of the asset management team of AEX.
The APR of the underlying USDC and USDT is based on the subscription, the more you subscribe, the more the interest rate will raise. Moreover, Smart Savings provides an exclusive benefit for new users. AEX Global has been operating steadily for 9 years, with zero security incidents. Its financial products follow the principle of guaranteeing principal and interest, and users can obtain the highest returns in the industry.
AEX Global Smart Savings is a principal and interest-guaranteed financial product that by raising BTC and USDT(more coins in the future) to purchase mining rigs and manage yield, enables users to obtain returns in tokens and at the same time perform option hedging to reduce asset value fluctuations and other risks. Taking BTC Smart Savings as an example, after raising the fund, AEX will place orders for mining rigs(88.5T~150T) from our partner Bitmain and let them work in places all over the world such as New York, California and Texas.
As to the most concerning issue of how to avoid asset security risks, the AEX Global CEO Allen said: "Smart Savings undertakes the preliminary work of finding mining farms, following the local procedures, technical/machine maintenance, etc. At the same time, it adopts the risk control mechanism of option hedging to avoid the risk of loss due to cryptocurrency price fluctuations. Of course, there is another risk that comes from the local regulations. If the local regulations change, AEX Global will relocate the mining rigs as soon as possible. The cost is not borne by the user."
Smart Savings' charm has attracted the attention of cryptocurrency users around the world. It has launched 5 rounds with a total of 1600+ BTC, 28 million USDT, 135 million DOGE, 45,000 LTC, and 6 million USDC for subscription and all have been subscribed in a very short time. At present, V8-level users of all over the world have begun to enjoy the benefits from AEX's services. Since this product is in a limited-time trial operation, there is no financial data displayed on the platform. As the number of participants increases in the future, AEX Global will invest in more technical personnel to develop a visual real-time data display to ensure every income of users is fair and transparent.

Britain turns up the heat: Met Office issues hot weather warnings across the south of England with temperatures set to hit a record-breaking 34C on Friday - making it hotter than BARBADOS
- The Met Office says that temperatures could hit a record-breaking 34C (93F) on 'fiery Friday'
- Forecasters have issued a hot weather alert across London and the South East for this week
- Millions of Britons are set to roast in glorious sunshine and clear blue skies in 'June heatwave'
The Met Office has issued hot weather warnings for London and the South East as temperatures are set to hit a record-breaking 34C (93F) on Friday.
Britain is set to roast in coming days, with forecasters predicting glorious sunshine and clear blue skies across much of the country during the 'June heatwave'.
Health bosses are urging people to watch for signs of heat exhaustion among the elderly and vulnerable, while hayfever suffers should brace for a 'pollen bomb'.
Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist Dan Rudman said: 'Temperatures will continue to rise as we go through the week, becoming well above-average by Friday when many parts of the southern half of the UK are likely to exceed 30C and may even reach 34C in some places.
'This is the first spell of hot weather this year and it is unusual for temperature to exceed these values in June.
'Many areas will also see some warm nights with minimum temperatures expected to be in the high teens or even low 20Cs for some overnight.'

On May 17, a toasty 27.5C (81F) was recorded at Heathrow. It is still relatively unusual for temperature to reach the mid-30Cs in June, with the highest June temperature on record – 35.6C (96F) – reached at Southampton Mayflower Park on June 28, 1976.
The all-time temperature record for the UK is 101.7F (38.7C), which was set on July 25, 2019, in Cambridge University Botanical Gardens.
Agostinho Sousa, Head of Extreme Events and Health Protection at the UK Health Security Agency, said: 'Temperatures are forecast to reach 30C in some parts of the south on Friday and we want everyone to enjoy the hot weather safely when it arrives and be aware of good health advice for coping with warmer conditions.
'During periods of hot weather it is especially important to keep checking on those who are most vulnerable, such as older people and those with heart or lung conditions.
'Make sure to look out for signs of heat exhaustion and follow our simple health advice to beat the heat.'
An Environment Agency spokesperson said: 'There is a low-risk of drought for public water supplies this summer. However, further hot, dry weather could put pressure on some areas.
'Dry weather this spring has led to receding river flows and reservoir levels across central and south western England in particular.
'Early June rainfall has offered some relief with river flows improving compared to the end of May, however a third of river flows remain below normal for the time of year.
'As always, we continue to work with water companies and wider stakeholders to closely monitor water resources and take action, where necessary.
'People should use water wisely and follow advice from their suppliers.'
The British Red Cross, meanwhile, has encouraged people to protect themselves and to check in with vulnerable friends, family and neighbours during the soaring temperatures.
It has given advice to help keep people healthy, including urging them to drink plenty of fluids but avoid excessive alcohol consumption, wear sun cream and keep workplaces and homes cool.

The RSPCA is urging dog owners to be aware of the dangers of walking their pets - especially ones with thick coats and underlying health conditions - during the warmer seasons.
Esme Wheeler, RSPCA dog welfare specialist, said: 'The truth is walking dogs in hot weather can be a silent killer. While the majority would never leave our dogs in a car on a hot day, or even take our dogs for a really long walk in the heat, many people may still be putting their dogs at risk even on a short walk, or taking them to places such as fields and beaches with little or no shade.
'We have long-campaigned that dogs die in hot cars, but this year we're highlighting that dogs die on hot walks, too. The message remains very simple - never leave a dog in a hot car because 'not long' is too long, and when it comes to walks, 'if in doubt, don't go out.'
The Blue Cross urged cat owners to be careful when leaving windows open after one kitten fell from a third storey window and fractured her leg.
Some advice by the charity to cool pets down includes keeping cats indoors during the hottest points in the day, with windows open that have wire mesh or netting to prevent any injuries, and instead letting them out during the cooler parts of the day.
Forecasters are predicting that July and August will be hotter still, as the British summer truly kicks into gear.
The Weather Outlook forecaster Brian Gaze said: 'It looks like sun cream conditions ahead, with a hotter-than-average July expected, with more hot spells in August.' | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10918703/Britain-turns-heat-Temperatures-hit-record-breaking-34C.html | 2022-06-15T10:03:34Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10918703/Britain-turns-heat-Temperatures-hit-record-breaking-34C.html | false | 3 |

Stellenbosch has been selected as the global meeting point this November for a prestigious, multi-disciplinary congress on Chenin Blanc, a grape variety regarded as key to the future of wine growing.
One of the world’s most heat-tolerant and versatile cultivars, it is South Africa’s signature white wine grape. The country has more Chenin vines planted than the rest of the world combined, even though Chenin’s origin is in the Loire in France.
This year’s event will be jointly hosted by the Academie du Chenin and Destination Angers, with South Africa’s Chenin Blanc Association and Stellenbosch University. Several other wine bodies are also involved as partners, with support also being extended by South African Tourism.
Entitled Chenin: Revealer of Place, the congress will be presented from 1 to 3 November in hybridised format with in-person and digital tickets available. The three-day event at the Stellenbosch Institute for Advanced Study (STIAS) will include a wide range of academic and general interest presentations and vineyard visits.
The accent will be on sustainability and innovation, with speakers and workshops focusing on three key areas: the full genome sequencing of the Chenin Blanc grape varietal to establish a scientific base for intra-varietal clone diversity; winegrowing and winemaking in the face of climate change; and responding to consumer tastes and lifestyle trends in a variety of cultures.
Amongst the big-name presenters will be Dr Jamie Goode, the widely published and award-winning wine writer, who also holds a PhD in plant biology, and Rosa Kruger, one of South Africa’s foremost viticulturists and a high-profile advocate of the Old Vine Project. They will be discussing new developments in regenerative viticulture.
Another major drawcard will be French neuroscientist Dr Gabriel Lepousez, an international expert on sensory perception and brain plasticity. He holds a research position at the Pasteur Institute and specialises in the brain circuits involved in sensory perception, memory and emotions. He also runs neuro-sensory training for wine professionals to understand how the brain works during wine tasting.
Co-founder and chairman of the Chenin Blanc Association, Ken Forrester, said: “It is a major coup for the South African wine industry to host a conference of this calibre. It acknowledges the central role this country has had in elevating the global reputation and awareness of Chenin. It also offers an outstanding forum for members of our wine and hospitality sectors to exchange ideas with other international experts in their fields.”

Jackass star Bam Margera has been reported 'missing' after fleeing rehab centre in Florida.
Police are currently in search of the reality TV star after he reportedly fled the Florida rehabilitation centre a number of days ago.
The 42-year-old star's rehab manager reported Bam as missing on Monday after he told staff at the centre that he was 'unhappy' with the place and 'their services'.
Bam told the staff that he was going to 'split' - despite not being allowed to leave the establishment of his own accord, TMZ reports.
According to a Delray Beach police report, Bam told the rehab manager that he would be checking himself into a different rehabilitation establishment in the area before he fled the premises in a black sedan.
Bam was originally in rehab under a court order, and the staff were reportedly 'concerned' as the star was leaving the premises without permission.
The staff reportedly told police that Bam didn't appear to be a danger to himself or others before he fled the centre.
Police have yet to locate the Jackass star.
It's not the first time Bam has quit rehab.
Back in 2019, the troubled star posted a lengthy Instagram take down of his life and inner feelings following his checking out of rehab, just days after arriving.
At the time, pro-skakeboarder Bam said that 'no-one can stop him' and he is "doing better than ever" after checking out of rehab.
In the handwritten note, which he photographed and posted on Instagram, Bam wrote:"By day number 5 in rehab I realised when I am bored is when I drink.
"Well in rehab I am bored 50 percent of the time so that's when I figured out that when boredom sets in and alcohol is off limits, that's when I get creative as f***, an explosion of good ideas, exercise, skate, workout, yoga, hike, bike way more. Because I don't like to sit stagnant! (UNLESS I AM DRUNK)."

European Central Bank to gather after borrowing costs rise
But that program, which never actually had to be used, can come with onerous conditions.Holger Schmieding, chief economist at Berenberg bank, said the situation today is different from the euro crisis a little more than a decade ago because countries have improved growth prospects and the ECB has the bond-market backstop in its back pocket if needed.Current conditions should not present an imminent risk even for fiscally challenged Italy, he said.The ECBs surprise meeting comes the same day that the US Federal Reserve is expected to announce its largest interest rate hike since 1994.
- Country:
- Belgium
The European Central Bank's rate-setting council will hold an unscheduled meeting Wednesday "to discuss market conditions," with borrowing costs for several countries having risen after the bank said it would raise interest rates.
The bank last week announced the hikes in July and September without specifying how it would protect countries sharing the euro currency if borrowing costs rose excessively — as they did in the European debt crisis in 2010-2012. That's a concern for heavily indebted governments, most notably Italy.
The spreads for Italian and Spanish debt over safe German government debt — a key fear index for the 19-country eurozone — have risen after the ECB made only vague promises to prevent financial "fragmentation," or interest rates in individual countries that are so high that they don't reflect the bank's benchmarks.
The ECB has a bond-market backstop in which it could step in and buy the debt of a troubled country. That tool helped calm the debt crisis a decade ago after the bank announced it in the wake of its then-President Mario Draghi's promise to do "whatever it takes" to keep the eurozone from breaking up. But that program, which never actually had to be used, can come with onerous conditions.
Holger Schmieding, the chief economist at Berenberg bank, said the "situation today is different from the euro crisis a little more than a decade ago" because countries have improved growth prospects and the ECB has the bond-market backstop in its back pocket if needed.
Current conditions "should not present an imminent risk even for fiscally challenged Italy," he said.
The ECB's surprise meeting comes the same day that the US Federal Reserve is expected to announce its largest interest rate hike since 1994.

PROVIDENCE BAY—The distinctive sound of banjos could be heard echoing across the Providence Bay fairgrounds this past weekend at the first Bluegrass in the Country (BIC) festival since the pandemic got underway to rave reviews.
Over the course of the weekend, some of the most talented names on Bluegrass scene came to join local musicians to entertain the audience, and entertain they did.
“Isn’t this wonderful?” said BIC organizer Brother John Featherstone. “These musicians are all so very amazing!”
Turnout for the event was solid, he noted, but there was one little fly in the ointment. “I really hoped we would see more people filling the campgrounds, but the local community has certainly come out to support us.” The grounds might not have been full, but there were still a fair number of trailers and campers in evidence, somewhat remarkable given the recent spike in fuel prices.
“I think this tells us a story,” said Brother John. “You get your best result by sticking close to home,” referencing the on-Island market, the North Shore and Sudbury as key regions that were well in evidence at the festival. “If you try to get people from Nashville here, you will lose your shirt,” he laughed.
Among the local performers were the talented Robbie Shawana, Doug Hore the fiddling barber, the incomparable keyboardist Maurice Lebelle and new Great Northern Opry inductee Urban Mejaki, the ever-popular Island band Double Barrel and Friday night headliner Bonita Mercer.
The complete lineup included the Schotts, Granite Hill, Avery Drive, Rescue Junction, Bonita Mercer, Robbie Shawana, Alicia Robicheau, Claire Lynch, Sweetgrass, Mr. Shawana, IIIrd Fox and Junction.
Bluegrass in the Country is a fundraiser for Manitoulin Special Olympics (MSO) and MSO organizer Janet Anning took a turn onstage to highlight the outstanding accomplishments of the Island’s Special Olympians.
Among the athletes who have again taken up competition is a five-member team headed to competition in North Bay this weekend that includes Linda McCulligh, John Hopkin, William LeClaire, Aaron Nickol and Elizabeth Cooper.
A surprise performance by Island vocalist Ellie Maxwell brought the audience to its feet in a standing ovation following her songs.
Over the last couple of years, Matthew Bedard, who had qualified for the Special Olympic World Games in Russia, continued to train hard in the hopes the World Games would again take place. Sadly, the ongoing conflict in Ukraine stymied that hope as the games have now been cancelled.
Still, Matthew is in the best shape he has ever been, noted Ms. Anning, so who knows what the future might bring?
This BIC had a bittersweet moment, as the event is bidding adieu to founder Brother John, who is moving to Manitoba to be closer to family.
“We will miss him,” said Ms. Anning, “we will miss the whole Featherstone family. Austin Featherstone was our first athlete to qualify for the World Games. But we wish them well and are grateful for all they have done.” Ms. Anning noted that Brother John will still be only a phone call away.
It is not clear yet who will be taking on the mantle of BIC organizer (there are some names being bandied about). “It’s early days yet,” said Brother John. “Right now, we are just focused on the weekend.”
Although the event had to be moved into the Providence Bay arena due to a wet Saturday, the drizzle did nothing to dampen the mood and feet were kept tapping through the evening. | https://www.manitoulin.com/bluegrass-in-the-country-celebrated-a-return-to-live-music/ | 2022-06-15T10:18:49Z | https://www.manitoulin.com/bluegrass-in-the-country-celebrated-a-return-to-live-music/ | true | 1 |

EU launches new legal steps against Britain over N. Ireland plans
The arrangement was set to avoid reinstating border controls between Northern Ireland and EU member Ireland, which were dropped after the 1998 Good Friday peace agreement. "The British government has once again announced its intention to break international law," an EU official said.
- Country:
- Belgium
The European Commission launched two new legal proceedings against Britain on Wednesday after London published plans to override some post-Brexit rules governing Northern Irish trade, and resumed another challenge it had previously paused. The proceedings could result in fines imposed by the European Court of Justice, although these would likely be more than a year away.
The Commission, which oversees relations with former EU member Britain for the 27-member European Union, said it still wanted to resume talks with Britain to resolve difficulties in shipping British products to Northern Ireland. The British province is in the EU single market for goods, meaning imports from the rest of the United Kingdom are subject to customs declarations and sometimes require checks on their arrival. The arrangement was set to avoid reinstating border controls between Northern Ireland and EU member Ireland, which were dropped after the 1998 Good Friday peace agreement.
"The British government has once again announced its intention to break international law," an EU official said. "We don't think it takes a lawyer to know that unilaterally changing an agreement is wrong."

Monkeypox will be renamed by the World Health Organization after scientists stated that the word is racist and discriminatory toward Africa.The announcement comes after more than 30 scientists stated last week that a "non-discriminatory and non-stigmatizing nomenclature for monkeypox is urgently needed."
The World Health Organization (WHO) has announced that it is working with experts to rename monkeypox, citing concerns about stigma and racism associated with the virus's "discriminatory" moniker.On Tuesday morning, World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus declared that the organisation was "engaging with partners and experts from around the world on altering the nomenclature of the monkeypox virus, its clades [strains], and the disease it causes."
The WHO, according to Mr Ghebreyesus, will make announcements regarding the new names as soon as feasible.
The decision comes less than a week after more than 30 worldwide scientists called for a "non-discriminatory and non-stigmatizing name for monkeypox virus" in a position paper.
On its website, the WHO currently recognises two strains of the virus monkeypox: the West African clade and the Congo Basin (Central African) clade.
Watch | Monkeypox outbreak: 'Further spread of virus likely,' says WHO
However, according to a group of scientists from Africa and throughout the world, this, like many prior geographic classifications of infectious diseases based on places of first detection, can be misleading and erroneous.
They recommended a new categorization for monkeypox that matches with best practise in infectious disease naming and "minimises unwanted negative repercussions on nations, geographic regions, economies, and people while taking into account the virus's evolution and transmission," according to their suggestion.
This year, the WHO has received reports of 1,600 confirmed monkeypox cases and 1,500 suspected cases from 39 countries, 32 of which have recently been afflicted by the virus.
According to Tedros, 72 deaths have been documented in countries where monkeypox is already prevalent, but none have been reported in newly affected nations.

In 3rd T20I, team was slightly more aware of bowling department: Ruturaj Gaikwad
Gaikwad said that the bubble increased the team bonding and the players are now adjusting to the increased attention.
- Country:
- India
After registering a 48-run against South Africa in the third T20I, India batter Ruturaj Gaikwad said that the Men in Blue were more ware of the bowling department. India came up firing in a do-or-die encounter as the hosts defeated South Africa by 48 runs to win the third T20I on Tuesday.
While Ruturaj Gaikwad shone with the bat scoring 57 off 35 balls Yuzvendra Chahal bounced back with a stellar spell picking three wickets for 20 runs. Raina hailed Ruturaj, Chahal and Harshal Patel for sensational performance. "The wicket was slightly better than the last two games. In previous games, the wicket was topping a little. I didn't change my process as the pitch was better for batting in this game," said Gaikwad in a post-match press conference.
"The conversation was just about staying positive because I think we played really well in the last two games and there were some crunch moments in which they overtook us and made sure that they would win in those moments. Today, we bowled really well and they had a batting collapse. Coming to this game, we were slightly more aware of the bowling department," he added. The T20I series against South Africa is the first one for Team India without a bio-secure bubble environment following the COVID-19 pandemic. Gaikwad said that the bubble increased the team bonding and the players are now adjusting to the increased attention.
"Being in a bubble was tough for a longer period of time. But one good thing I felt was that the team bonding increased, in whichever team I played for, be it an IPL (Indian Premier League) team or for the Indian team. There were a lot of team activities together. That has really helped and that will stay for the coming years as well," said Gaikwad. "Coming out of the bubble, there are a lot of fans in this country, and a lot of people are gathering near you. And this is the first series (without the bubble) so everyone is taking time to adjust to it. Because everywhere we go we are used to enclosed environments (in a bubble). People are not coming towards you and there is a distance from them. So coming out of that, a lot of fans coming closer to you, asking a lot of stuff, a lot of pictures and all that, so there is a lot of attention, and a lot of distraction as well. So both being in and out of the bubble have pros and cons. I'd say it is better to experience both," he added.
India have opened their account in the five-match T20I series with this win in the do-or-die clash. With the series still 2-1 in favour of the visitors, the fourth T20I will be played on Friday at Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Gujarat. Batting first, a 97-run stand between Gaikwad (57) and Ishan Kishan (54) powered India to 179/5 in their allotted 20 overs. The first innings was a see-saw one as India dominated the first half of the innings, but South Africa pulled back momentum to their side in the other half.
In reply, the Proteas never looked like going as they kept losing wickets at regular intervals and in the end were bundled out for 131 with five balls still to play. For Men in Blue, Chahal and Harshal Patel starred with the ball as they bagged three and four wickets respectively to derail the visitors' chase. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Axar Patel scalped one wicket apiece. (ANI)

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iranian authorities have arrested a suspect allegedly involved in a cyberattack on the Tehran municipality’s website, media reported Wednesday.
The official IRNA news agency gave no further details but said more information would be released later.
The semi-official Tasnim news agency reported that the suspect worked for the municipality and had links to foreign intelligence services.
Earlier this month, Iran said that government-run surveillance cameras in Tehran were “disrupted.” An exile group, Mujahedeen-e-Khalq, claimed it hacked into over 5,000 cameras around Tehran and the municipality website.
The incident comes after another hack in January where the same exile group called for the death of the country’s supreme leader in video played on multiple state TV channels.
In October, an assault on Iran’s fuel distribution system paralyzed gas stations nationwide, leading to long lines of angry motorists unable to get subsidized fuel for days. A cyberattack on Iran’s railway system caused chaos and train delays. Another hack leaked footage of abuses at its notorious Evin prison. | https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/article/Iran-arrests-suspect-allegedly-involved-in-Tehran-17242697.php | 2022-06-15T10:32:28Z | https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/article/Iran-arrests-suspect-allegedly-involved-in-Tehran-17242697.php | false | 11 |

Biden tells oil refiners: Produce more gas, fewer profits
(AP) - President Joe Biden on Wednesday called on U.S. oil refiners to produce more gasoline and diesel, saying their profits have tripled during a time of war between Russia and Ukraine as Americans struggle with record high prices at the pump.
“The crunch that families are facing deserves immediate action,” Biden wrote in the draft of a letter to oil refiners obtained by The Associated Press. “Your companies need to work with my Administration to bring forward concrete, near-term solutions that address the crisis.”
Gas prices nationwide are averaging roughly $5 a gallon, an economic burden for many Americans and a political threat for the president’s fellow Democrats going into the midterm elections. Broader inflation began to rise last year as the U.S. economy recovered from the coronavirus pandemic, but it accelerated in recent months as energy and food prices climbed after Russia invaded Ukraine in February and disrupted global commodity markets.
The government reported on Friday that consumer prices had jumped 8.6% from a year ago, the worst increase in more than 40 years.
The draft letter notes that gas prices were averaging $4.25 a gallon when oil was last near the current price of $120 a barrel in March. That 75-cent difference in average gas prices in a matter of just a few months reflects both a shortage of refinery capacity and profits that “are currently at their highest levels ever recorded,” the letter states.
As Biden sees it, refineries are capitalizing on the uncertainties caused by “a time of war.” His message that corporate greed is contributing to higher prices has been controversial among many economists, yet the claim may have some resonance with voters.
Some liberal lawmakers have proposed cracking down on corporate profits amid the higher inflation. Sen. Bernie Sanders, a Vermont independent, in March proposed a 95% tax on profits in excess of companies’ pre-pandemic averages.
The president has harshly criticized what he views as profiteering amid a global crisis that could potentially push Europe and other parts of the world into a recession, saying after a speech Friday that ExxonMobil “made more money than God this year.” ExxonMobil responded by saying it has already informed the administration of its planned investments to increase oil production and refining capacity.
“There is no question that (Russian President) Vladimir Putin is principally responsible for the intense financial pain the American people and their families are bearing,” Biden’s draft letter says. “But amid a war that has raised gasoline prices more than $1.70 per gallon, historically high refinery profit margins are worsening that pain.”
The letter says the administration is ready to “use all reasonable and appropriate Federal Government tools and emergency authorities to increase refinery capacity and output in the near term, and to ensure that every region of this country is appropriately supplied.” It notes that Biden has already released oil from the U.S. strategic reserve and increased ethanol blending standards, though neither action put a lasting downward pressure on prices.
The president is sending the letter to Marathon Petroleum, Valero Energy, ExxonMobil, Phillips 66, Chevron, BP and Shell.
He also has directed Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm to convene an emergency meeting and consult with the National Petroleum Council, a federal advisory group that is drawn from the energy sector.
Biden is asking each company to explain to Granholm any drop in refining capacity since 2020, when the pandemic began. He also wants the companies to provide “any concrete ideas that would address the immediate inventory, price, and refining capacity issues in the coming months -- including transportation measures to get refined product to market.”
There may be limits on how much more capacity can be added. The U.S. Energy Information Administration on Friday released estimates that “refinery utilization will reach a monthly average level of 96% twice this summer, near the upper limits of what refiners can consistently maintain.”
The draft letter notes that roughly 3 million barrels a day of refining capacity around the world have gone offline since the pandemic began. In the U.S., refining capacity fell by more than 800,000 barrels a day in 2020.

By David Crowe
Australians are witnessing a sudden collapse that has taken years of sluggish incompetence to bring the nation’s energy market to a halt.
What just happened? After almost a quarter of a century of letting the market operate freely, the energy regulator imposed total national control of the electricity grid for the first time in its history.
This is about much more than the factors the Australian Energy Market Operator blames for its unprecedented intervention: the rapid onset of cold weather, the shortages at coal-fired power stations that are out of action for maintenance, the high prices for coal and gas.
It is about a disgraceful failure in Australian politics over a long period of partisan fighting without a solution.
After years of slow failure in plain sight, the Australian energy system has hit the wall. This is a moment like the collision at the end of a slow-motion crash test video when the car crumples under pressure. Anyone watching could see the jolt coming for the crash test dummies.
But this is no test: Australian customers are in the passenger seats. This is a live experiment with an electricity market that is no longer up to the essential task of serving households and businesses.
Australia has not installed enough renewable energy quickly enough and has failed to provide enough storage for that energy. The withdrawal of coal-fired power has been under way for years and the country is still not ready despite the warnings. The high price of gas has been forecast for years and is sending electricity prices soaring.
While the Russian invasion of Ukraine put even more pressure on fuel supplies and prices, the trends were foreseen long ago.
There is no shortage of blame because the problem has spanned state and federal governments and all sides of politics. But it is a national crisis after nine years of federal Coalition rule. The country is paying the price for the divisions within the Liberals over the transition to clean energy and the outright denial in the Nationals of global warming and the need to act quickly to reduce the reliance on coal.
The immediate issue is the inability of the national electricity market, created in 1998, to handle the pressures that have inevitably followed the absence of a settled agreement at the political level.
The head of the Australian Industry Group, Innes Willox, summed this up neatly on Wednesday without any reference to the convoluted rules of the regulator or the workings of the spot market.
“The detail of the AEMO market suspension will be completely arcane to most business and household energy users. They need confidence that the physical electricity system they depend on will not collapse,” he said.
“They need as much guidance as possible about what they will pay and whether it will be reasonable.
“Energy users also need confidence that all market participants are working to the common good.”
That last point is crucial because that confidence no longer exists. The design of the market gives generators the incentive to play the system rather than deliver reliable energy. This is not new – it is just that the sudden cold weather has highlighted the problem.
Confronted by high demand and low supply, the regulator took the logical step of applying a price cap to protect consumers. This was met by a rational response from generators to stop supply because they believed the cap was too low when they wanted to maximise profits. Their withdrawal led the regulator to order them to supply the energy, triggering compensation to get them back into the market.
It has all been perfectly rational. But not in the national interest.
In a country with abundant sources of energy, the white-collar traders sitting at a computer have become more important than the blue-collar workers generating the power.
Voters have no reason to trust the energy generators and no reason to care whether the national electricity market continues in the way its creators dreamed up in the 1990s when deregulation was supposed to serve the national good by matching supply and demand.
Australia, a country with abundant energy, is now telling some citizens to turn off the lights to prevent a blackout. It is actually shameful. The nation’s political system has been unable to prepare for changes that everyone could see coming.
The people in power could not agree on a solution. So the people who need power have to go without.

Cape Town - Action Society has reached out to the provincial government to join forces with it in its fight to tackle the ongoing gang violence on the Cape Flats.
The organisation’s plea to the provincial government follows the death of another youngster on the Cape Flats, this time in Storms River Way, Manenberg.
The fatal shooting, which is being investigated by police, took place over the weekend when an unknown gunman opened fire on the teen, Faried Atson, in an open street, fatally wounding him before fleeing in a silver Mercedes Benz.
Police spokesperson Frederick van Wyk said a report of the incident indicates that the suspect initially fired several shots at the 17-year-old, who ran for cover. However, the guman followed him and shot directly at him, killing him.
“A murder case was opened for further investigation, and no arrests have been made yet,” Van Wyk said.
Action Society founder Roegshanda Pascoe said: “We have been asked for assistance to bring the ongoing gang violence to a stop as the community is tired of the violence, death and destruction.
“Initially, we thought we would support them with marches and demonstrations to give them a platform to voice their frustrations because they have tried to bring an end to the ongoing violence but nothing has worked.”
Pascoe said Action Society has now reached out to the provincial government with a plan to not only focus on addressing gang violence, but the root causes of it.
“We are now waiting for the government to respond to us to present our ideas on how we can turn the tide cohesively, putting collective politics aside and just concentrating on serving our people as we should,” Pascoe said.
“We have also reached out to the provincial police because they too need to come to the table to fix this.” | https://www.iol.co.za/capeargus/news/manenberg-teen-killed-action-society-moves-to-help-with-ongoing-cape-flats-violence-459e8740-6a63-471d-bd34-fa0bdae34835 | 2022-06-15T10:49:10Z | https://www.iol.co.za/capeargus/news/manenberg-teen-killed-action-society-moves-to-help-with-ongoing-cape-flats-violence-459e8740-6a63-471d-bd34-fa0bdae34835 | true | 1 |

June 15, 1993 was beginning of growth period for Azerbaijan - Turkish presidential advisor [PHOTO]
By Trend
June 15, 1993 was the beginning of a growth period for Azerbaijan, independence under the tricolor flag of which will be eternal, and this day is celebrated as the National Salvation Day, Chief Adviser to the President of Turkiye Yalcin Topcu told Trend.
"To prevent the threat of civil war, national leader of Azerbaijan Heydar Aliyev returned from the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic to Baku at the invitation of the people, and was elected on June 15, 1993 as chairman of the Supreme Council of Azerbaijan,” Topcu said. “It was the wise policy of national leader Heydar Aliyev that saved Azerbaijan from the internal threat that existed at that time, helped to overcome the difficulties faced by the country in the first years of independence."
He further sad that with the liberation of Azerbaijan’s Karabakh [from Armenian occupation in the 2020 Second Karabakh War], President, the Victorious Supreme Commander-in-Chief Ilham Aliyev and the heroic people of Azerbaijan fulfilled the testament of national leader Heydar Aliyev.
"Azerbaijan, which left behind many internal and external problems, is today a great state which pursues an independent domestic and foreign policy, takes a worthy place in the international arena and in international organizations, and comprehensively develops,” the chief adviser noted.
“I congratulate Azerbaijan, with which we are ‘one nation, two states’, with the National Salvation Day. I honor the memory of the great leader of the Azerbaijani people Heydar Aliyev, and in the person of President Ilham Aliyev I express respect to all the Azerbaijani people," concluded Topcu.

Kylie Jenner shows off REAL post-baby curves in tiny booty shorts & bra but leaves fans concerned with postpartum update
KYLIE Jenner has posted another honest body update, as she continues to work herself back into shape after giving birth in February.
The Kardashians star showed off her post-baby curves while snapping a selfie in front of her gym mirror.
Kylie, 24, posed in a tight brown sports bra and form-fitting black bicycle booty shorts.
She rocked her hips back and forth in a boomerang, and added the caption: "No days off!"
In another shot, Kylie filmed herself walking on a treadmill. She was much more open and revealing about her progress in the caption.
"4 months postpartum," she shared. "I have been dealing with tons of back and knee pain this time so it slows down my workouts.
"But I am on a mission to get strong again."
Kylie has been praised before for showing her true self on social media.
Just a day earlier fans praised Kylie for looking natural in an unedited video following claims of lip fillers.
The makeup-free video resurfaced on Reddit as fans praised the star for looking refreshed.

One said: "She looks different and more natural. Love it," as another added, "Nothing beats Kylie wearing a natural makeup look."
A fan chimed in: "I love seeing Kylie like this. As natural as possible, no filters, etc. I think she's just such a goddess."
Another wrote: "Love a minimalist Kylie," and one commented, "This Kylie is a whole vibe."
The mom of two has also been praised by fans for showing off her "stretch marks and extra weight" on her postpartum body.
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum was lauded for "normalizing normal bodies" when she shared a photo of her stomach with her baby son's feet resting on it.
Kylie posted the snap of just the bottom of her baby's feet on her tummy, taking the photo from above.
Her fans flocked to a Kardashian Reddit thread to praise her for sharing the reality of postpartum bodies.
One wrote: "As a mommy, I love the rawness of this picture. The stretched skin, the postpartum tummy, the little extra weight. I just love it."
Another added: "I love that she posted this. Normalizing normal bodies."
"For women who have such big platforms, this is the type of content we need from them! I love this so much!" a third posted.
Another fan declared: "Honestly, this is probably the most beautiful picture she's ever posted." | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/9015928/kylie-jenner-real-curves-postpartum-update/ | 2022-06-15T11:01:45Z | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/9015928/kylie-jenner-real-curves-postpartum-update/ | true | 3 |

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) — Indonesian President Joko Widodo announced a Cabinet reshuffle on Wednesday, replacing key economic ministers amid a national cooking oil shortage and rising food prices.
Widodo selected Zulkifli Hasan, the chairman of a political party that joined the ruling coalition last year, as Indonesia’s new trade minister, replacing Muhammad Lutfi, who had been criticized for his handling of the cooking oil situation. Hasan held ministerial positions in previous governments and vowed to quickly tackle the shortage, making cooking oil available “anywhere at an affordable price,” he told a news conference after his inauguration.
A cooking oil crisis that was initially triggered by the Russia-Ukraine war shook up both domestic Indonesian politics and the global supply chain after the government in April banned all exports of crude palm oil, a key ingredient in cooking oils, amid a series of student protests against skyrocketing food prices.
Indonesia resumed exports of crude palm oil a month later.
Indonesia and Malaysia are the world’s largest exporters of palm oil, accounting for 85% of global production.
Pressure on the global supply of cooking oil has increased due to the war in Ukraine, which accounts for nearly half of the world’s sunflower oil. Russia accounts for another 25%.
Palm oil prices went up 200% or higher after Indonesia banned the export of cooking oil and its raw materials to reduce local shortages and hold down rising prices.
Widodo picked Indonesia’s former military chief Hadi Tjahjanto to replace Agrarian and Spatial Planning Minister Sofyan Djalil, and also appointed three new vice ministers.
Widodo is hugely popular in the archipelago nation of more than 270 million people, with a 68.4% public satisfaction rating, according to pollster Charta Politika. A majority of Indonesians also supported Widodo's decision to reshuffle his Cabinet.
Southeast Asia’s largest economy served as a key exporter of coal, palm oil and minerals amid a global shortage in commodities after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Coal exports increased to record levels in March after a brief ban on its shipments early this year to secure domestic supplies.
The nation is on track to hit its full-year economic growth target of 4.8%-5.5% after recording a 5.01% pace in the first quarter. COVID-19 cases in Indonesia have been steadily declining. | https://www.bigrapidsnews.com/news/article/Indonesian-leader-reshuffles-Cabinet-amid-rising-17242735.php | 2022-06-15T11:02:22Z | https://www.bigrapidsnews.com/news/article/Indonesian-leader-reshuffles-Cabinet-amid-rising-17242735.php | true | 12 |

Netflix announced a new reality TV show inspired by Squid Game. This show will have 456 players compete for a chance to win $4.56 million, the largest cash prize in the history of TV.
While the contestants will hopefully not die in this show, they will still have to compete in a series of games. Squid Game: The Challenge will be based on the popular dystopian series that broke all records last year. Squid Game was a major hit and became the top-viewed program on Netflix in 94 countries.
Earlier this month, Netflix renewed Squid Game for a second season. As this sequel to Seong Gi-hun won’t come out before late 2023 or early 2024, Netflix is preparing a reality TV show based on Squid Game.
“Squid Game took the world by storm with [director Hwang Dong-hyuk’s] captivating story and iconic imagery,” said Brandon Riegg, Netflix VP of unscripted and documentary series. “We’re grateful for his support as we turn the fictional world into reality in this massive competition and social experiment. Fans of the drama series are in for a fascinating and unpredictable journey as our 456 real world contestants navigate the biggest competition series ever, full of tension and twists, with the biggest-ever cash prize at the end.”
Everything we know about Squid Game: The Challenge
Squid Game: The Challenge will see its 456 contestants fight over 10 episodes. The goal is to win the $4.56 million cash prize through a variety of challenges.
Netflix is currently looking for participants ready to join Squid Game: The Challenge. The casting is open to English speakers from any part of the world. Even if contestants come from all parts of the world, Squid Game: The Challenge will be filmed in the UK. This reality TV show will be a co-production between Studio Lambert (The Circle) and The Garden (24 Hours in A&E). | https://gameranx.com/updates/id/317392/article/squid-game-reality-tv-show-coming-to-netflix/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=squid-game-reality-tv-show-coming-to-netflix | 2022-06-15T11:02:49Z | https://gameranx.com/updates/id/317392/article/squid-game-reality-tv-show-coming-to-netflix/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=squid-game-reality-tv-show-coming-to-netflix | true | 1 |
WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. producer prices surged 10.8% in May from a year earlier, underscoring the ongoing threat to the economy from inflation that shows no sign of slowing.
Tuesday’s report from the Labor Department showed that the producer price index — which measures inflation before it reaches consumers — rose at slightly slower pace last month than in April, when it jumped 10.9% from a year earlier, and is down from an 11.5% yearly gain in March.
On a monthly basis, producer prices climbed 0.8% in May from April, above the previous month, when they increased 0.4%.
Energy prices, led by gas, rose 5% just in May from April. Another big driver of the price gains last month was a sharp 2.9% increase in the cost of truck freight hauling, a sign that supply chain problems still aren’t fully resolved. Food costs were unchanged.
The figures indicate that rising prices will continue to erode Americans’ paychecks and wreak havoc on household budgets in the coming months. Inflation has created major political headaches for President Joe Biden and congressional Democrats and has forced the Federal Reserve into a series of rapid interest rate hikes intended to slow the economy and cool price increases.
On Friday, the government reported that inflation — as measured by the consumer price index — jumped to a new 40-year high of 8.6% in May, a surprise gain that disappointed expectations that price increases might be slowing. Gas and food costs rose sharply, pushed higher by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but the costs for rent, new and used cars, medical care, and clothing also rose, evidence that inflation is spreading more broadly through the economy.
The Federal Reserve is expected to hike its short-term interest rate by three-quarters of a point on Wednesday, the largest increase since 1994, as it ramps up its efforts to rein in higher prices.
The producer price data captures inflation at an earlier stage of production and can sometimes signal where consumer prices are headed. It also feeds into the Federal Reserve’s preferred measure of inflation, the personal consumption expenditures price index.
Strong consumer spending has pushed up demand for a range of goods and services, which has in turn overwhelmed supply chains, creating shortages in some cases and pushing up prices. Greater demand for travel this spring and summer has also sent hotel and airfare prices soaring.
How long that consumer demand will last is a key question for the economy going forward. Millions of Americans have enjoyed solid pay raises in the past year, including lower-income workers at restaurants, hotels, and warehouses.
Consumers also have greater savings than is typically the case from government stimulus checks and because they weren’t able to spend as much on travel and entertainment in the past two years. Those savings are supporting ongoing spending even amid high prices.
Yet prices are rising at a faster pace than wages, on average, suggesting that eventually consumers may have little choice but to pull back on spending. | https://www.wdtn.com/news/business/ap-business/may-us-producer-prices-soared-10-8-as-energy-prices-jumped/ | 2022-06-15T11:04:46Z | https://www.wdtn.com/news/business/ap-business/may-us-producer-prices-soared-10-8-as-energy-prices-jumped/ | true | 41 |

China's New Oriental education giant finds new life in English live streaming
Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.com
BEIJING, June 15 (Reuters) - Shares in China's New Oriental (9901.HK) climbed for a fourth straight day on Wednesday, with analysts saying its new live-streaming sales strategy could help it recover from a regulatory crackdown that decimated its education business.
The company was once one of China's largest private tutoring firms but its fortunes changed overnight in July last year when Beijing enforced sweeping new rules on private education that barred tutoring for profit. New Oriental's shares plunged and it dismissed tens of thousands of staff. read more
It tried to pivot to sectors unaffected by the regulations, including dancing and drawing classes, and in December ventured into selling agricultural products online via live streaming, with its founder Yu Minhong, well-known in China for his entrepreneurial undertakings, occasionally hosting the sessions.

The company's sales were lacklustre, however, until late last week when its hosts, former New Oriental teachers, started using the sessions to teach English to viewers as well.
In one video that went viral on Chinese social media, the New Oriental host, after promoting a set deal for steaks, pulls out a small whiteboard where he wrote words including "steak" and "seasoning" in English, explaining how to use them in sentences before encouraging viewers to buy.
Sales from New Oriental's live-streaming platform, which had been stuck at less than 1 million yuan ($148,858) a day, leapt past the 15 million yuan mark on Friday, according to data from live-streaming tracking platform Huitun.
Shares in Koolearn Technology (1797.HK), which operates New Oriental's live-stream e-commerce business through a studio called Dongfang Zhenxuan on Douyin, surged 54.2% on Wednesday.
Shares listed in Hong Kong in New Oriental, which holds 55.7% of Koolearn, jumped 22.5% on Wednesday and are up 54% since the open on Friday.
However, they are still only worth about a third of their value before the new rules came in last year. New Oriental is also listed in the United States.
Citi analysts, who have a "buy" rating on New Oriental, called Koolearn's online live broadcasting a bright spot and estimated it could achieve more than 7 billion yuan in annual gross merchandise value if it maintained the current run rate.
China banned tutoring for profit in an attempt to ease pressure on children and parents, but it also led to a wave of school closures and layoffs across the private education sector.
Some customers who purchased products from New Oriental after watching the live streams on Friday said they were impressed by the company's never-say-die attitude.
"I burst into tears when I watched it," said Kong Ling, a tech worker in Hangzhou. "I'm watching a warrior who stands up firmly despite being beaten by the iron fist of life and I wanted to buy to show my support."

5 things to know for June 15: Primaries, Economy, Ukraine, Covid-19, UK deportations
By Alexandra Meeks, CNN
The official start of summer is still six days away, but for many across the US, it feels like it’s been here for weeks — with unusual severity. On the heels of an intense heat wave, a large swath of the country is now bracing for extreme temperatures today, testing power grids and leaving more than 88 million people under heat warnings or advisories.
Here’s what you need to know to Get Up to Speed and On with Your Day.
(You can get “5 Things You Need to Know Today” delivered to your inbox daily. Sign up here.)
1. Primaries
Primary elections were held in Nevada, South Carolina, Maine and North Dakota on Tuesday. Much of the attention was on Nevada, where Republicans chose a vocal supporter of former President Donald Trump’s lies about election fraud as their nominee to become the state’s top elections official. In South Carolina, voters delivered the vengeance that Trump had sought as they ousted Rep. Tom Rice, one of the 10 House Republicans who voted for Trump’s impeachment last year. But In a district near Rice’s, a one-time Trump critic, Rep. Nancy Mace, narrowly survived a challenge from a Trump-endorsed rival — displaying the difficulty of surviving in a GOP still dominated by the former President without embracing his grievances. A special election in Texas also resulted in a GOP win after Democrat Dan Sanchez conceded to Republican Mayra Flores in a contest for what had long been a Democratic-held House seat.
2. Economy
All eyes on are the Federal Reserve as it wraps up a two-day meeting on interest rates today. In a move to fight rampant inflation, the central bank is expected to increase its benchmark interest rate by three-quarters of a percentage point — the biggest single hike since 1994. This follows the Fed’s decision to raise rates by half a percentage point in May, the biggest increase in 22 years. So, what does this mean for consumers? Experts say every time the Fed raises rates, it becomes more expensive to borrow. That means higher interest costs for mortgages, home equity lines of credit, credit cards, student debt and car loans. Business loans will also get pricier.
3. Ukraine
The US expects more announcements of weapons and equipment packages to be sent to Ukraine to help in its fight against Russia at a meeting of nearly 50 countries in Brussels today, according to a senior US defense official. Ukrainian officials have warned that Russia is gaining ground in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine, specifically in the city of Severodonetsk, which has seen some of the heaviest fighting. Without an influx of more weapons, some Ukrainian officials say it will be difficult to halt Russia’s progress or reclaim occupied ground in the region. This, however, could force a tough decision for Western governments, which have offered immense support to Ukraine at an increasing cost to their own economies and national stockpiles of weapons.
4. Coronavirus
In a unanimous decision on Tuesday, FDA advisers voted in favor of authorizing Moderna’s Covid-19 vaccine for children and teens ages 6 to 17. The FDA, which typically follows the committee’s decisions, will now decide whether to authorize the vaccine for emergency use in these age groups. Moderna’s vaccine has been estimated to be 93.3% effective against symptomatic Covid-19 among adolescents ages 12 to 17 when the original coronavirus and the Alpha variant were dominant, according to an FDA briefing document. The vaccine was estimated to be 76.8% effective against symptomatic Covid-19 for children ages 6 to 11 when the Delta variant was dominant. Pfizer/BioNTech’s Covid-19 vaccine is approved for people 16 and older, and it’s authorized for use in children as young as 5.
5. UK deportations
The inaugural flight of a controversial UK government scheme to send asylum-seekers to Rwanda was stopped on Tuesday at the eleventh hour, after an intervention by the European Court of Human Rights. According to the UK’s PA Media news agency, “all migrants have been removed from the plane and the flight to Rwanda will not take off as scheduled tonight.” Britain’s government had announced the deal with the east African country in April. Those people granted asylum would then be allowed to resettle in Rwanda. The government insisted the program was aimed at disrupting people-smuggling networks and deterring migrants from making the dangerous sea journey across the English Channel from France.

Griner — who has been held in Russia since February on accusations of drug smuggling — will remain detained through at least July 2, according to a Russian court. US officials have officially classified Griner as “wrongfully detained” with some supporters expressing concerns Russia would use Griner as a political pawn amid tensions over the war in Ukraine.

European Central Bank policymakers called an emergency meeting on Wednesday, as more indebted eurozone states have come under pressure from rising borrowing costs.
A week after a regular gathering, the governing council will hold an "ad-hoc meeting" to discuss "current market conditions," an ECB spokesperson said.
The ECB drew a line under years of ultra-loose monetary policy at last week's meeting, calling an end to its massive bond-buying stimulus programme at the beginning of July.
Under pressure from soaring inflation in the eurozone, the ECB also announced its first planned interest rate hike in over a decade for the same month.

Consumer prices rose at an 8.1-per cent pace in May, an all-time high for the currency club and well above the ECB's own two-per cent target.
The switch in the central bank's policy has raised the spectre of "fragmentation" in the eurozone, where the borrowing costs for some, more indebted members rise faster than for others.
Following the meeting last week, the so-called spread between the yields for 10-year Italian bonds and those of Germany -- seen as a benchmark for stability -- climbed even further, reaching levels not seen since the very start of the pandemic in 2020.
Yields on Italian 10-year bonds fell following the announcement of the ECB meeting, reducing the spread with German government debt.
Eurozone stock markets also rose after falling this week ahead of a regular US Federal Reserve meeting where policymakers could hike rates even higher than expected to combat decades-high inflation.
Speaking at an event in Paris on Tuesday, ECB executive board member Isabel Schnabel said the bank would "not tolerate" unwarranted increases in borrowing costs that would "undermine" the bank's policy.
Schnabel said the ECB's response to the risks of fragmentation would "depend on the situation we are facing", but insisted that the bank's commitment had "no limits".
"There can be no doubt that, if and when needed, we can and will design and deploy new instruments to secure monetary policy transmission and hence our primary mandate of price stability," she said.
The ECB was prepared to respond in a "very short period of time" if necessary, Schnabel said.
"In that case, reinvestments from maturing securities under the PEPP can be adjusted flexibly across time," she said.
PEPP is the ECB's pandemic-era stimulus programme to stoke economic growth and keep credit flowing in the 19-nation currency club.
The ECB brought an end to net purchases under the 1.85-trillion-euro scheme in March this year.
Another option would be to design a new "tool", Schnabel said, though its scope would depend on "the situation we are facing".
Schnabel is only the latest senior ECB figure to intone on the risks of rising spreads.
President Christine Lagarde said the ECB would show "flexibility" in response to pressure on borrowing costs at the ECB's regular meeting last week in Amsterdam.
"Some spread widening amid an overall rise in yields is normal," said Holger Schmieding, chief economist at Berenberg Bank.
"As long as it remains consistent with the inflation backdrop and the pace of nominal growth, it should not present an imminent risk even for fiscally challenged Italy," Schmieding said.
Policymakers will meet to discuss the developments in markets from 11:00 am Frankfurt time (0900) GMT.
Normally members of the governing council meet roughly every six weeks to set the course for the ECB, with their next regular meeting planned for July 21.

Man convicted of littering for flowers on fiancee’s grave after father told him to stop
AUBURN, Ala. ( WRBL ) – An Alabama man arrested for criminal littering after putting flowers on his fiancee’s grave was found guilty by a municipal judge Thursday.
At the conclusion of the bench trial, the judge said he was tasked with following the law, not emotion, and the flowers were a clear violation based on testimony and evidence. The judge also offered his condolences to the defendant, Winchester Hagans, and the complainant, Dr. Tom Ford, for the loss of Hagans’ fiancee, Dr. Ford’s late daughter. Hagans intends to file an appeal, which could lead to a jury trial.
Opelika Police search for men robbing victims at gunpoint inside homesIn January 2021, 27-year-old Hannah Ford was killed in a car crash the same day she picked out a wedding venue with her soon-to-be husband.
Hagans built a flower box covered with engagement pictures to place at Hannah’s grave in Auburn’s Memorial Park Cemetery. Hagans did not testify during Thursday’s trial but has said in the past the couple had a strained relationship with some members of Hannah’s family, and someone kept throwing the flowers away. Hagans kept rebuilding the box and putting the flowers back. Hagans says Hannah’s family never told him directly to stop leaving flowers.
Photos below were provided by Winchester Hagans:
In January 2022, Hannah’s father, Dr. Tom Ford, signed a complaint against Hagans. Dr. Ford testified he did everything he could to keep the issue out of court. Dr. Ford testified that numerous flower boxes were placed on Hannah’s gravesite without his permission, and he located a camera in a nearby tree. Ford testified Hagans was advised not to place unauthorized items on the grave, but it didn’t stop.
A prosecutor with the city of Auburn showed the court the deed to the plot where Hannah rests belongs to her father, Dr. Tom Ford. They also presented evidence showing flower boxes were not allowed.
Sari Card, an administrative assistant with Auburn Parks and Rec responsible for maintaining the cemetery where Hannah is buried at Memorial Park, testified she informed Hagans on the phone that Dr. Ford wanted Hagans to stop putting the flower boxes on the grave. If Hagans did not, Card told him, she thought Dr. Ford would take legal action and have him arrested. Card testified Hagans told her he didn’t care and he would continue making them.
Judge sends rideshare rape case to Lee County Grand JurySunday, January 24, Hagans was on his way to preach at an east Alabama church when police pulled him over for an expired tag. After running his tag, the officer came back and said there was a warrant out for Hagans’ arrest.
The complaint, dated January 4, reads: A person commits the crime of criminal littering if he or she engages in any of the following acts: (1) Knowingly deposits in any manner litter on any public or private property or in any public or private waters, having no permission to do so. Hayden Thomas Ford is the property owner of his daughter Hannah Ford’s cemetery plot located at Memorial Park in Auburn, Alabama. Winston has posted via social media “someone keeps throwing away the flowers I plant…but each time he throws them away, I’ll plant more.” The flower box contains photos of Winston Hagans and Hannah Ford attached around the box.
Hagans’ attorney Jeff Tickal asked the judge to dismiss the case, saying there were errors in the complaint and Criminal Littering was not an appropriate charge as flowers were not litter. The judge denied the defense’s request saying the flower box was a foreign object as defined in the code.
Chambers Co. sheriff’s race headed to Nov. general electionThe judge ordered Hagans to pay a $50 fine and $251 in court costs. Hagans was not sentenced to jail. The judge also advised Hagans to find another location to honor his fiancee‘s memory that was not on somebody else’s property.
The city prosecutor could not comment because the case is under appeal. Dr. Tom Ford also declined to comment. Hagans and his attorney say they plan to appeal.
As for Hagans, he still visits Hannah’s grave often and prays better days are ahead for all who loved her. When asked what he would say to Hannah’s father, Hagans has said, “I just want to be able to put flowers on her grave.”

LONDON (AP)Casper Ruud endured a tough transition from clay to the grass courts, with the top seed losing his opening-round match at the Queen’s Club in straight sets to an opponent ranked No. 180 on Tuesday.
Nine days after playing – and losing – to Rafael Nadal in the French Open final, Ruud was beaten 7-6 (4), 7-6 (2) by little-known Briton Ryan Peniston, a 26-year-old in his first ATP Tour main draw.
It was only the seventh time the top seed has lost a first-round match at Queen’s in the Open era, with the Norwegian joining an illustrious list containing Andy Murray, Pete Sampras and Jimmy Connors.
”I can’t really believe it,” Peniston said. ”It feels like a dream. I didn’t get much sleep last night, it doesn’t feel real.
”Obviously Casper is an unreal player, he did so well at the French Open so I knew it was a tough ask. But you have to step on the court knowing you’ve got a chance to win – so that’s what I did.”
Ruud is a clay-court specialist who has a pretty low opinion of the grass. He recently said ”grass is for golf players” and that he felt ”more comfortable on the golf course than the tennis courts on grass for now.”
He struggled with his timing throughout the match and also needed treatment on his hip after taking a tumble on the baseline.
Peniston won five points in a row on his way to taking the first-set tiebreaker, not long after Ruud had slipped while on set point.
Ruud also fell early in the second set but broke Peniston for the first time to make it 4-3, only for the British No. 7 to break back immediately and then win another tiebreaker.
Matteo Berrettini, the second seed and reigning champion, had no such problems in the first match of his title defense when he won 6-3, 6-3 against a more established British player in Dan Evans, who won the grass-court Nottingham Open on Sunday.
Sam Querrey, the 2010 champion at Queen’s, showed he is still a force to be reckoned with on grass at the age of 34 by beating fifth-seeded Diego Schwartzman 6-1, 6-4.

Bengaluru, June 15: Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno could be a wanted man this summer as he is being chased by several clubs ahead of the new season.
The German keeper lost his place between the sticks to Aaron Ramsdale last season, restricting him to just four Premier League appearances. The 30-year-old pushed for an exit in January but nothing materialised.
Now with him having just another year left on his current deal, he is expected to leave the Emirates this summer for regular game time. The Gunners have set a €10 million asking price, which could be tempting for many sides.
The 30-year-old goalkeeper is in his prime and considering his transfer value he could be an asset to many top sides. As per rumours, his camp so far has received offers from Premier League, Bundesliga, as well as Primeira Liga and these, are three sides who have made concrete offers for him:
1. Fulham
Newly-promoted Premier League side Fulham have reportedly made a strong offer to the 30-year-old shot-stopper. The Cottage boss Marco Silva is keen to use the transfer market to improve the club’s chances of surviving relegation with better recruits.
One of his priorities is to bring a goalkeeper and they have reportedly targeted Bernd Leno. Signing for Fulham would definitely be a step down from his current club however Leno is looking for clubs around London and Fulham's approach, in that case, could be feasible.
2. Benfica
The Portuguese giants are another side who are interested in signing Bernd Leno this summer. His former boss Roger Schmidt is an admirer of the goalkeeper and would like the club to sign him to take over their goalkeeping position. The club are evaluating the possibility however it is understood that they are unwilling to match Arsenal's €10m demand and would continue further negotiation.
3. Hertha Berlin
The Bundesliga side are also reportedly exploring the opportunity to sign Bernd Leno from Arsenal and have made contact with his camp. The move will see him return to Bundesliga however, a couple of things first need to be sorted. Leno may have to agree to a pay cut in order to join them. But considering he is likely to attract more interest, he could wait to explore other opportunities. | https://www.mykhel.com/football/three-clubs-linked-with-arsenal-goalkeeper-bernd-leno-over-a-summer-transfer-191983.html | 2022-06-15T11:38:35Z | https://www.mykhel.com/football/three-clubs-linked-with-arsenal-goalkeeper-bernd-leno-over-a-summer-transfer-191983.html | false | 1 |
My greatest frustration as an elected official has been the tendency most people have to cling to preconceived notions no matter what data suggests. Rather than problem solving by the scientific method of observing, gathering data, experimenting, testing, then developing a hypothesis, it is most common that we humans anchor our beliefs with bias and acknowledge only data that fortifies our predetermined conclusions. Politics and religion are prime examples.
The 38 school mass shootings from Sandy Hook Elementary School on Dec. 14, 2012, to Robb Elementary School, May 24, 2022, have not altered the gun faction in America or the elected officials whose shared beliefs continually impede legislative solutions. I am not against the Second Amendment, but because resistance to reasonable regulations is an unalterable fact, I suggest a different help for this unimaginable national tragedy.
I urge Sens. Shelley Moore Capito and Joe Manchin and Reps. Carol Miller, David McKinley and Alex Mooney to take the national lead by working in a bipartisan fashion to propose that states may choose to appropriate whatever portion they deem appropriate for school safety measures from the federal $65 billion bipartisan infrastructure bill. West Virginia is set to receive $6 billion for roads, bridges and broadband. Each, especially broadband development, is critical for economic development, but there will never be a greater opportunity to upgrade school safety than by using a portion of the infrastructure money.
Better entryways, doors, windows, cameras and procedures in our schools are among the underfunded, unfulfilled requests made by county superintendents and school boards. We should not only retrofit existing school properties, but we should ensure that any future school built meets current best practices and construction safety standards. If some federal or state gun safety measures are passed, they will never be 100% effective, but lowering shooters’ access inside schools will diminish incidents.
During the 2022 legislative session, I sponsored a bill to expand funding for school safety using a portion of the federal infrastructure money, but it was not even placed on a committee agenda even though it would not have affected the state’s budget. The most difficult legislation to enact is a bill that will prevent or reduce a problem. The need is better sensed after a disaster than when one is preempted. When something bad does not happen, we do not recall why. Because it is unlikely that sensible gun regulations will be passed during the 2023 session, will we have to wait for a West Virginia school shooting to take preventative action? This is the chance for Republicans and Democrats to do something good — together. | https://www.lincolnjournal.com/opinion/ric-griffith-use-infrastructure-money-to-protect-school-children-from-shootings/article_0fec2269-e255-5cad-aed8-18e693fb6ce8.html | 2022-06-15T11:39:56Z | https://www.lincolnjournal.com/opinion/ric-griffith-use-infrastructure-money-to-protect-school-children-from-shootings/article_0fec2269-e255-5cad-aed8-18e693fb6ce8.html | true | 5 |
