YES, the big news was still Corpus Christi high school student and baseball player, Ryland Freeman, and his massive haul that he received from the Astros in exchange for the ball hit by Astros DH J.J. Matijevic on Matijevic's first career home run on Sunday night. Freeman caught the ball and promptly became a television sensation on the ESPN broadcast.
In case you missed it, here was the home run:

And also, let's add in that Freeman's initial request included an autographed Justin Verlander jersey, a request the team denied. Well, social media and the spread of info, even into an MLB dugout, being what it is, Verlander quickly found out about the snubbed request, and went ahead and autographed a jersey for the youngster:According to ESPN Ryland Freeman caught JJ Matijevic’s home run ball and the @astros traded him a bunch of stuff for the baseball. It was JJ’s first Major League hit. pic.twitter.com/ojwmmKOgZW

All in all, a pretty good night for Freeman, especially when you consider that he will probably receive at least three or four more pieces of memorabilia when he visits Minute Maid Park to cash in his six-ticket prize later this summer. Honestly, on the broadcast, it reached a point where I was half expecting Karl Ravech to tell us that Freeman had just pilfered another first round pick from the Browns for Deshaun Watson. The kid was that shrewd!More from 16-year-old Rylan Freeman of Corpus Christi on getting a signed Justin Verlander jersey for coming up with J.J. Matijevic’s first career homer.

It does beg the question "What are some creative requests that you might make, if the Astros came out to your seat to try to make a deal with you for a home run ball that you caught?" I had a few ideas:
Three future appearances from Orbit at a party of my choosing
This is probably a little specific, likely only appealing greatly to an Astro fan with young children, but I can tell you that when my three kids were, say, ages 4, 4, and 3 — yes, I had three kids within 16 months of each other — then the ability to bring in Orbit for each of their birthday parties would make me Father of the Year. Beyond that, it might be kind of funny, if you don't have kids, to bring Orbit along on a bachelor party or a day trip to the Golden Nugget in Lake Charles. It would certainly make for some excellent viral video.
Appearing in one H-E-B commercial of my choice
With the Texans' star power all ether willingly leaving town (J.J. Watt) or being shipped out of town (DeAndre Hopkins, Deshaun Watson, hell even Justin Reid) over the last couple years, we are left with the Astros having essentially an exclusive on H-E-B commercials. So why not tell the Astros to get the good folks from H-E-B on the horn and get you a spot in the next great H-E-B ad? That would far exceed any bit of memorabilia, especially since, who knows, maybe it jump starts a burgeoning acting career!
Bottomless concessions stand gift card for one season
Astros tickets are not cheap. We all know this. But the silent killer at Minute Maid Park is the cost of food and drink. At 10 dollars for a hot dog, 6 dollars for a soft pretzel, and 13 dollars for a can of domestic beer, it adds up quickly. So why not get super practical with your request, and have Jim Crane and company pay for your vittles and liquid refreshment for a full season? It might even make me more likely to purchase more of the non-silent killer — game tickets! Win-win!
Diamond Club parking access for one season
You know what else is a silent, super expensive killer? Parking! So how about requesting, not just FREE parking, but the best possible parking that you can find anywhere near Minute Maid Park — the Diamond Club parking lot, which sits right next to the stadium, about 50 feet from the entrance to the stadium. Not only will you save a ton of money, but you feel like a total baller getting out of your car as fans walk by you on their way in. You guaranteed a lot of "Who is THAT guy, and why is such a baller?" looks from the ham and eggers walking in from Lots B and C.

SINGAPORE, June 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- From Apr 26 to Jun 6, Multichain's fastMPC Testnet Program was live. As of June 6, a total of 122 nodes signed up for the fastMPC testnet. Meanwhile, over 200 participants from Multichain's community have actively engaged in the discussions on node registration and network optimization.
What is fastMPC?
Secure Multi-Party Computation (MPC) network is the core technology underpinning Multichain, also the key to Multichain security model and mechanism. fastMPC, or MPC 2.0, is an upgraded version, it offers increased speed, better preformance and enhanced security.
- fastMPC performs 4–5 times faster than MPC 1.0, which will contribute to more speedy and smoother cross-chain solutions and experience.
- Rounds of internal and external audits have been made to make sure contracts do not have frequently occurred and high-risk bugs. Effective measures have also been taken to prevent dishonest nodes.
Why did Multichain launch fastMPC Testnet?
The purpose of the testnet program was to enhance the functional stability of the nodes for distributed computation in an extranet environment, and to validate all the technical and cryptographic designs of fastMPC to facilitate a seamless migration to the fastMPC mainnet, where all Multichain cross-chain bridge, router, and anyCall may operate smoothly and efficiently. More importantly, the launch of fastmpc testnet was a step towards Multichain's goal to enhance Multichain's further decentralization.
What is next?
Multichain is planning a phase 2 program with fastMPC to further optimize fastMPC network, which is expected to live very soon. More users will be able to participate in the node running and get involved in a fully decentralized with fewer technical skills required.
About Multichain:
Multichain, born as Anyswap on the 20th July 2020, is positioned as a fully decentralized Cross-Chain Router Protocol (CRP), an infrastructure supporting multi-chain ecosystem. Multichain envisions to be the ultimate router for web3. It has taken an absolute leading position in the cross-chain industry in terms of its rapidly expanding ecosystem map (53 supported chains and over 2,400 bridges), large DAU number, innovative product and high TVL totaled $3.2B.

On 50th anniversary of Title IX, Sonoma County coaches reflect on progress, shortcomings in women’s sports
Monica Mertle’s late grandmother was the most competitive person she ever knew.
When Mertle, the head girls basketball coach at Cardinal Newman, got into coaching, her grandmother would come to all of Mertle’s games and keep stats, just like she had done for Mertle’s dad years earlier.
Back when Mertle first started playing basketball in grade school, she asked her grandmother what sports she played in high school in the 1940s in Santa Rosa.
“She kind of looked at me and said, ‘We didn’t have sports when I was in high school,’” Mertle recalled. “That was probably my first exposure to really understanding my opportunities were different than previous generations.”
Those new opportunities afforded to Mertle and millions of other women came via the passage of Title IX in 1972. Thursday marks the 50th anniversary of President Richard Nixon signing the Education Amendments Act — which was originally designed to address gender inequality in education — into law. But written within in the law was Title IX, 37 words that changed women’s sports forever.
While it would be years until Title IX was properly enforced — a struggle that continues today in some regards — the impact it has had on athletics over the last several decades is difficult to overstate. Specifically, the law banned discrimination based on sex in schools that received federal financial assistance. After the law was signed, schools had to provide equal opportunities for both male and female athletes.
The year before Title IX passed, fewer than 300,000 girls participated in high school sports, compared to 3.7 million boys, according to data compiled by the National Federation of High Schools. In 2019, the NFHS reported that 3.4 million girls and 4.5 million boys played high school sports.
Athletics in Sonoma County felt that change as well, and as Title IX turns 50, local women coaches, past and present, are reflecting on how it impacted their lives and the progress they hope to see in the future.
“It’s been a slow slog,” said Caren Franci, who coached women’s basketball at Santa Rosa Junior College from 1970 to 2002, “but we’re getting there.”
Before and after
Growing up in Southern California, Karen Stanley just wanted to play soccer. She was 10 when Title IX passed, but the opportunities were still few and far between during her teenage years.
Despite going to a high school with around 2,000 students, Stanley — who went on to a have a Hall of Fame coaching career that included an 11-year stint at Santa Rosa Junior College — had to play with the boys since the school didn’t have a girls team. And even while she was on the boys team, she originally wasn’t allowed to work out with her male teammates in the weight room.
“That was my first impetus of thinking this was not OK, this was not right,” Stanley recalled. “All of us should have the same opportunity.”
That was when Stanley first heard of Title IX and the first time she became acutely aware of the inequities that surrounded women’s sports.
Even years later as the head coach at USC, a position she held from 1993 to 1996, issues persisted. She said the school had created a women’s soccer program not because it wanted to, but because it had to. When compared to men’s program, her team was a bare-bones operation, with incredibly limited resources devoted to uniforms, facilities and travel money.
Franci recounted similar stories after Title IX passed — she had to put on bake sales to raise money for new uniforms and equipment and often had her male assistants mistaken as the head coach — as did Jan Smith Billing, the outgoing North Bay League commissioner who coached softball at Casa Grande High School from 1974 to 1988.
Smith Billing played sports all her life, taking advantage of the few opportunities she had, and eventually competed on club teams at UC Davis. She was 22 when she started at Casa Grande and quickly found that it would be difficult to get paid for her work as a coach.
“I met with the principal and I said, ‘Excuse me, where do I sign my paperwork for my coaching stipend?’ And he looked at me with total incredulity and said, ‘We don’t pay women to coach. We only pay men,’” she recalled. “I didn’t know what to do. I mean, what do you do when you’re told just flat-out that because you’re a female you don’t deserve a stipend?”
Much has changed for the better over the past five decades. Women’s participation in sports has grown exponentially at all levels. Today, women account for 44% of NCAA athletes, up from 15% before Title IX. At the Tokyo Olympics last summer, women represented 49% of all participants, touted as the most gender-equal Games to date. And just over a month ago, the U.S. women’s national soccer team reached an agreement with the U.S. Soccer Federation that would ensure equal pay with the men’s team. | https://www.pressdemocrat.com/article/sports/on-50th-anniversary-of-title-ix-sonoma-county-coaches-reflect-on-progress/ | 2022-06-23T03:41:35Z | https://www.pressdemocrat.com/article/sports/on-50th-anniversary-of-title-ix-sonoma-county-coaches-reflect-on-progress/ | false | 1 |
While women head coaches are still a minority at Division I schools, the trend line is continuing to move upward. The annual Women in College Coaching report card, released Wednesday by the University of Minnesota's Tucker Center, shows a 1.2% increase in the number of women head coaches at seven major Division I conferences — the largest one-year gain in the report card's 10-year history. Yet the pace of change remains slow, averaging 0.4% per year.
Some additional findings of the report, compiled by the Tucker Center and WeCOACH:
- 43.4% of women's D-I teams have a woman as head coach, up from 42.7% last year. Among the "Select 7'' conferences — AAC, ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12, and SEC — the percentage rose from 42.5% to 43.7%. The percentage for all D-I teams rose for the fourth consecutive year, while the Select 7 percentage increased for the eighth year in a row.
- Among D-I schools, Rhode Island has the highest percentage of women head coaches (90%); among sports, lacrosse has the highest percentage (90.8). North Dakota State was one of four schools with no women in head coaching positions.
- At Select 7 schools, a majority of head-coaching vacancies for women's teams were filled by women in 2021-22 (51.9%), the first time that has happened in the report's 10-year history.
- Women of color hold only 7.35% of head coaching positions of women's D-I teams.
- At the U, eight of 13 women's teams have a woman as head coach (61.5%), earning a B grade. St. Thomas (five of 11, 45.5%) received a C. The Big Ten (52.7%) was among 20 conferences receiving a C grade, and the Summit League — whose 25.3% was the lowest of any D-I conference — was one of 11 to receive a D.
- At the current rate of change (0.4% per year), it will take 17 years for women to fill 50% of head coaching positions in D-I women's sports.

Living in California isn’t easy. Energy prices, housing costs and taxes are outrageously expensive. The roads are a shambles and traffic is miserable. A perpetual man-made drought, likely power blackouts this summer, and rising homelessness and crime are diminishing our quality of life.
If all that isn’t enough, there is a swarm of smaller hassles, largely rooted in California’s nearly unique fear of plastics.
Using a store’s self-checkout requires an extra step for consumers to declare if they’re buying a bag or not, because handy, useful plastic bags can no longer be given out by most retailers and must be purchased.
Plastic straws are verboten.
A new law prohibits “a food facility from providing any single-use foodware accessory or standard condiment, as defined, to a consumer unless requested by the consumer.” So no plastic utensils, chopsticks, ketchup packets or even drink stirrers without asking.
The use of polystyrene, the material known as Styrofoam and is often used for food packaging, has been restricted by more than 125 local ordinances.
While it’s tempting to think lawmakers might be pulling back, having won so many victories in recent years that they can move on to something more practical for a while, the thought of C.S. Lewis writing about those who “sincerely” exercise tyranny “for the good of its victims” never sleeping reminds us that: This is California, the land of an inexhaustible urge to ban virtually any functional man-made item that makes life more convenient.
Until last week, it looked as if voters were going to have an opportunity to decide if there will be another round of plastophobia. The California Plastic Waste Reduction Regulations Initiative, which would set rules “that reduce the use of single-use plastic packaging and enact a maximum one-cent per item fee on single-use plastic packaging and foodware,” is scheduled to appear on the Nov. 8 ballot. But now, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, lawmakers and activists have reached “a compromise that could keep an anti-plastic waste initiative off the November ballot.”
“Under the deal, environmental groups would potentially pull their ballot measure if the Legislature approves” the compromise bill – and the governor signs it – “before a June 30 deadline to remove initiatives from the fall ballot.” The agreement is the result of “months of negotiations between environmentalists, legislators and some business groups.”
The reworked legislation would not allow manufacturers to make plastic packaging, and single-use food-service ware, after 2031 unless the products are fully recyclable or compostable. It also imposes “a fee for its participants sufficient to ensure” the bill’s requirements are met “and the plan is fully implemented.”
The arrangement is in danger, though, because activists say its provisions aren’t severe enough. The Los Angeles Times reported Friday that while some environmental groups support Allen’s bill, “other environmental groups say the legislation, as drafted, doesn’t go far enough and allows the plastics industry to self-regulate.”
Ben Allen, a Santa Monica Democrat and the Senate bill’s author, wants to salvage the legislation. He believes it “would put California in the front of the world at fighting plastic pollution.” As usual, California lawmakers think far too much of their influence.
Sure, they might inspire a few other states to enact similar laws. But even if all 50 duplicated California anti-plastic statutes, there would be no noticeable improvement in the volume of plastic in the oceans, which tends to be the motivating factor behind efforts to regulate and outlaw consumer convenience products, because Americans aren’t the problem. Neither are those in the industrialized nations that would most likely be “inspired” by California law. The Germany-based Helmholtz Center for Environmental Research has found that just 10 “rivers transport 88−95% of the global load” of plastic into the sea, and not one of them is in the U.S. Eight are in Asia, theother two in Africa.
Many of the countries that are mismanaging their plastic waste, and are therefore responsible for the bulk of ocean plastic, have concerns that are far different from the obsessions that preoccupy this state. They’re more focused on developing their struggling economies than passing environmental laws. No amount of inconveniencing Californians is going to change that.

Jeff Kennett's eventful second stint as Hawthorn's AFL president will finally come to an end later this year with the Hawks naming his successor.
Peter Nankivell, who has served as Hawthorn's vice-president for the last five years, will step into the top position at the club's general meeting in December.
Kennett praised the choice of Nankivell, who did not nominate for the role but was urged to reconsider when a committee was unable to find a suitable new candidate.
"It is wonderful when succession of an organisation can come from within," Kennett said.
"This will ensure that the momentum behind important initiatives on and off the field can be maintained and nurtured.
"Peter has a deep knowledge of the club and, at this time, has been found to be the most appropriate person to lead the club's future development and activities.
"Importantly, Peter has a value set that will continue to build our family club ethos.
"I thank the members of the nominations committee for the many meetings and hours of work they have contributed in the interest of the club."
Kennett, the outspoken former Victorian premier, first served as Hawthorn president between 2005 and 2011.
During that period, he changed the club's constitution so that Hawthorn presidents could only serve two three-year terms.
But Kennett returned to become president in 2017, taking over from Richard Garvey after he received criticism for the appointment of chief executive Tracey Gaudry, who lasted just five months in the job.
Kennett has come under-fire a number of times, often from other Hawthorn people.
The 74-year-old received heavy criticism for his handling of Hawthorn's botched coaching succession plan, when premiership mastermind Alastair Clarkson was replaced by Hawks legend Sam Mitchell.
Clarkson was pushed out after 17 seasons in charge when rival clubs came hunting for Mitchell last year to potentially become their senior coach.
Four-time premiership star Cyril Rioli earlier this year spoke out against the Hawks, saying race-related incidents contributed to his decision to call it quits from the AFL prematurely.
Rioli and his wife made it clear they will not return to Hawthorn while Kennett remains in charge.

A new electric vehicle charging station launched Tuesday, June 21 in Soledad. The new EV Range chargers provide up to 200 miles in just 15 minutes, a speedy charge the company calls “future-proof.” It’s the 15th charging station in Soledad, helping meet demand along the Highway 101 corridor, installed by EV Range with a $750,000 contribution from the Monterey Bay Air Resources District. “There is a need for chargers between Salinas and Paso Robles,” writes Central Coast Community Energy spokesperson Catherine Stedman.

ATLANTA (AP) — Adam Duvall was targeted by his Atlanta teammates for the obligatory postgame dousing with a cooler full of sports drink following his game-winning hit.
Duvall said credit was also due to the Braves player who actually scored the winning run.
Duvall's run-scoring single capped Atlanta's three-run rally in the ninth as the Braves beat the San Francisco Giants 4-3 on Wednesday night. It was Atlanta's second walk-off win of the series.
Duvall's single up the middle off Tyler Rogers drove in William Contreras, who was on second base following his tying hit and crucial stolen base. Contreras slid across home plate with the winning run as Austin Slater's throw from center field was slightly up the third-base line.
“It's obviously easier to score from second,” Duvall said. “Having a runner in scoring position was huge in that moment. With that hit, he doesn't score from first.”
It was a timely steal for Contreras, the rookie catcher better known for his power bat that has earned him a share of the playing time with Travis d'Arnaud.
The Giants wasted another strong start by Carlos Rodón, who allowed only three hits and one run in seven innings.
Jake McGee (1-2) blew a 3-1 lead, built on homers by Mike Yastrzemski and Darin Ruf, by allowing three runs in the ninth. McGee was brought in to close out the lead because Camilo Doval had pitched back-to-back games.
Dansby Swanson led off the ninth with a homer off McGee to cut San Francisco's lead to one run. Marcell Ozuna followed with a single to right field and moved to second on Matt Olson's fly ball to deep center field.
Contreras added a single to left field to drive in Ozuna for a 3-3 tie. Right-hander Tyler Rogers struck out Orlando Arcia as Contreras stole second base. The steal proved to be crucial when Duval followed with the game-ending single.
“It turned out to be one of the bigger plays of the game,” Braves manager Brian Snitker said of the steal.
Rodón was dominant in his first career appearance against Atlanta, allowing one run with 10 strikeouts and one walk.
Rodón outpitched Charlie Morton, who allowed two runs on three hits with 11 strikeouts in seven innings.
“Charlie is starting to get in his groove,” Snitker said.
Rodón's bid for his third consecutive start without allowing a run ended in the seventh. He has allowed only a combined seven hits and one run over 21 innings while winning three consecutive starts.
Ozuna singled to open the inning for Atlanta's second hit. Ozuna scored on Olson's double to the center field wall. Olson's hit, which trimmed San Francisco's lead to 2-1, ended Rodón's string of 21 consecutive scoreless innings.
The 29-year-old Rodón gave up a second-inning walk to Contreras, but allowed no other baserunners before Arcia's bloop single to center field with one out in the fifth gave the Braves their first hit.
Tommy La Stella's run-scoring single off A.J. Minter (3-1) in the ninth drove in Ruf to add to the Giants' lead.
MORTON'S WHIFFS
Morton recorded his 21st career game with double-digit strikeouts and second of the season. He recorded 12 strikeouts, but received a no-decision in a 10-4 win over Pittsburgh on June 11.
Morton's 40 strikeouts in June, including nine or more in three consecutive starts, leads the major leagues.
CLOSE AGAIN
The close game was nothing new for the Giants. Each of the first six games of their seven-game road trip has been decided by no more than two runs.
Overall, the Giants are 17-19 in 36 games decided by no more than two runs.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Giants: SS Brandon Crawford (left knee contusion) did not start but tests Wednesday showed no structural damage after he banged his knee on a slide at home plate Tuesday night. “There is some optimism he can start (Thursday),” said manager Gabe Kapler, who said Crawford was feeling better. ... RF Luis González was held out with tightness in his lower back. González was in Kapler's original lineup before González said his back felt “a little tight” according to Kapler. The manager said he doesn't believe the injury is reason for “long-term concerns.”
Braves: 3B Austin Riley did not start after manager Brian Snitker said “he got banged up a little” in Tuesday night's game. Riley struck out in the eighth as a pinch-hitter and remained in the game. ... OF Eddie Rosario (blurred vision, swollen right retina) and LHP Tyler Matzek (left shoulder inflammation) are moving closer to rehabilitation assignments. A decision on Matzek come come after he is checked by the medical staff on Thursday after throwing on the side on Wednesday.
UP NEXT
Braves RHP Kyle Wright (7-4, 2.94 ERA) will make his first career start against San Francisco when he faces Giants LHP Alex Wood (5-5, 4.32) as the four-game series concludes on Thursday. Wood began his career with Atlanta and is 3-3 with a 3.89 ERA in seven career starts against the Braves.

Trumpet the Bloodhound makes history by winning Best in Show at 146th Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show
And then there was one.
Trumpet the Bloodhound won the highly coveted Best of Show honor at the 146th annual Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show at the Lyndhurst Estate in Tarrytown, New York, besting over 3,500 dogs of more than 200 different breeds for the ultimate prize.
Trumpet the Bloodhound's selection marked history. He's the first Bloodhound to ever win Best in Show in Westminster's 146-year history. A Bloodhound first entered Westminster, the second oldest continuously running sport event in the U.S. behind the Kentucky Derby, in 1978. Broadcasters labeled his win an "upset."
"I am so excited for Trumpet," handler Heather Buehner said after the win, describing her beloved canine as a "goofball." She added, "He has a lot of attitude and he's a little crazy."

Trumpet is from Saint Joseph, Illinois. He's the son of Nathan, who won the Hound Group in 2014, but Nathan fell short of the grand prize. His son didn't.
The champion was selected by Dr. Don Sturz, a breeder, handler and former Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show analyst for Fox Sports, who served as the sole judge for Best in Show. Sturz gave the runner-up honor – Reserve Best in Show – to Winston the French Bulldog.
The Best In Show winner is selected from seven competitors – each of whom first had to be Best in Breed, and then best in one of the seven groups that purebred dogs are divided into: Hound, Toy, Non-sporting, Sporting, Herding, Working and Terrier.
In addition to Trumpet (Hound) and Winston (Non-sporting), the finalists were Hollywood the Maltese (Toy); River the German Shepherd Dog (Herding); Belle the English Setter (Sporting); Striker the Samoyed (Working); and MM the Lakeland Terrier (Terrier).
Wasabi the Pekingese (Toy) won last year's honors.

BOSTON (AP) — Rob Refsnyder has learned just how fleeting opportunities are in the major leagues, bouncing around to five different teams in seven seasons.
The 31-year-old is already feeling like his sixth stop in Boston is the one he's been waiting for.
Refsnyder hit a two-run homer in the third inning to help the Red Sox post their third series sweep of the season, powering past the Detroit Tigers 6-2 on Wednesday night.
In just 10 games, Refsnyder has 11 hits in 27 at-bats with five RBIs.
“So many parts of my career early on I wasn’t excited or happy with how I was playing,” he said. “I think the Red Sox really believe you get to the big leagues, you’re not a finished product, you can keep getting better. ... They have really been helping me develop still at 31. Lucky to have that.”
Jarren Duran and Alex Verdugo each added a two-run double as Boston won for the eighth time in 10 games. Michael Wacha (6-1) pitched six innings, allowing two runs and five hits with seven strikeouts to help the Red Sox improve to a season-high eight games above .500.
“He gave us what we needed,” manager Alex Cora said of Wacha, who has held opponents to a .125 batting average with runners in scoring position.
Javier Báez hit a two-run homer for the Tigers, who have lost nine of 11.
Tarik Skubal (5-5) lasted 4 2/3 innings and allowed six runs on six hits with three walks and five strikeouts. He has lost his last three starts.
“You want to salvage a win. We jumped out ahead today and couldn't finish the game in the positive,” Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said.
Báez put the Tigers in front in the first, driving Wacha’s first-pitch fastball into the seats above the Green Monster for his sixth home run of the season. It extended his hitting streak to seven games, one night after he finished a double shy of the cycle.
Báez has three homers in his last five games after hitting just one in the previous 45 games.
The lead lasted until the third when Duran tied the game, ripping a line drive into the left-field corner that scored Christian Vázquez and Bobby Dalbec.
Refsnyder was next and recovered from an 0-2 count to lift a fly ball to left-center that hit off the lip of the Monster. It was originally ruled a double, but then deemed a homer after a quick review by umpires.
The drive was Refsnyder’s first homer for Boston since signing as a free agent in December.
Detroit had runners at the corners with no outs in the sixth, but Wacha escaped by striking out Harold Castro and Robbie Grossman before Spencer Torkelson lined out to center.
Cora said the way the Red Sox have been able to combine timely hitting with good baserunning and solid defense is encouraging.
“To be able to put pressure in different ways, not only in the batter’s box, is good to see," he said.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Red Sox: Cora said Duran won’t travel with the team for its three-game series next week in Toronto because he is unvaccinated against COVID-19 and under Canadian rules is not permitted to enter the country.
WHAT A NIGHT
Red Sox rookie Jeter Downs didn’t exactly have the major league debut he wanted at the plate (0 for 4), but it didn’t make the night any less memorable.
“That was the coolest thing I've ever done in my life. I still can’t believe it happened. I still can’t believe the game’s over. It felt so fast,” Downs said. “It didn't turn out the way I wanted to, but oh well. The team got the win.”
Along with having several family members in attendance, the 25-year-old also got a pregame congratulatory tweet from Hall of Famer Derek Jeter, who met his namesake a few years ago.
“Congratulations and good luck… unless you are playing the Yankees,” he wrote in the message.
UP NEXT
Tigers: RHP Rony Garcia (1-2, 4.97 ERA) will be looking for his second straight victory when he takes the mound to open Detroit’s three-game series at Arizona on Friday.
Red Sox: RHP Nick Pivetta (7-5, 3.31) is on the mound as Boston begins a three-game series at Cleveland on Friday.

Monkeypox is misnamed. In 1958, it was first recognized in monkeys at a Copenhagen research facility, but monkeys do not usually carry the disease. The typical source of infection in both monkeys and humans is in contact with rodents like rats. Once the infection is in humans (or monkeys) it can spread from one to another through skin-to-skin contact, contact with contaminated items and sneezing and coughing. Human cases regularly occur in Africa but what has caught the media’s attention is that cases are spreading worldwide. Considering COVID-19, this may seem worrisome but monkeypox is not worth losing sleep over.
Symptoms begin five to 21 days after exposure. Monkeypox starts with fever, headache, cough and muscle soreness. After about three days, pink spots start appearing and usually spread all over the body. The spots turn into bumps that develop into blisters that eventually fill with pus. The rash looks like chickenpox. Lymph nodes behind the ear, in the neck and groin become swollen in monkeypox, but not in chickenpox, which is helpful in telling the two apart. Monkeypox usually lasts three or four weeks. It is rarely fatal in countries with good nutrition and access to modern healthcare.

Tens of thousands of gay and bisexual men at higher risk of being exposed to monkeypox should be offered vaccines to help control the recent outbreak of the virus, health officials have said.
Here are your questions answered about who will get the jab, which vaccine it will be and when they are expected to get it.
– Who will be offered the jab?
Some gay and bisexual men at higher risk of exposure to monkeypox should be offered the smallpox vaccine Imvanex, the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has said.
– But why are they being offered a smallpox jab?
Smallpox is in the same virus “family” as monkeypox. There is currently no vaccine licensed in the UK or Europe for immunisation against monkeypox.
As monkeypox is related to the virus which causes smallpox, vaccines developed for smallpox are considered to provide “cross-protection” against monkeypox.
The UKHSA said the smallpox vaccine “is shown to be effective against monkeypox”.
– So will everyone get the vaccine?
No. Officials have said the vaccine should not be offered to everyone.
It will only be offered to certain gay and bisexual men.
Eligibility criteria is likely to depend on a person’s sexual activity.
The UKHSA guidance states that a medic may advise vaccination for someone who “has multiple partners, participates in group sex or attends ‘sex on premises’ venues”.
– I thought it was already being offered to some people?
It is, some healthcare workers caring for people with the virus have been offered the jab. As have close contacts of confirmed cases, to reduce their risk of symptoms and severe illness.
– What’s the latest in the UK?
Between May 6 and June 20, 793 cases of monkeypox have been confirmed in the UK.
Of these, 18 were in Scotland, three were in Northern Ireland, six were in Wales and 766 were in England. Just five cases have been confirmed among women.
The majority of cases are among people in London but cases have been found in other regions too.
– How do I know if I have it?
Symptoms include new and unusual spots, ulcers or blisters anywhere on the body; fever; headaches; muscle aches; chills; fatigue and swollen glands.
Most people have a mild illness, with recovery within three weeks. But in some cases, severe illness can occur and sometimes results in death.
– When will people be able to get the vaccine?
Details are still forthcoming but the UKHSA said that NHS England will set out details “shortly”.
– Is monkeypox a sexually transmitted infection?
The virus is not currently defined as a sexually transmitted infection, but it can be passed on by close and intimate contact that occurs during sex.
Spread of monkeypox can occur when a person comes into close contact with an infected animal or an infected human.
It may also occur when a person comes into close contact with material contaminated with the virus such as bedding.
Anyone can get monkeypox but the latest cases have been mainly linked to “sexual networks of gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men”, the UKHSA said.
– Why is this outbreak happening?
One theory behind the latest outbreak could be that there is waning immunity to smallpox among people under the age of 50.
Vaccines for smallpox have not been routinely administered from around the time of the eradication of the disease in 1980, which could mean that younger people who did not get the vaccine do not carry the protection afforded by the smallpox jab.

Congress considering gas tax holiday as Minnesotans pay more at pump
MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - High gas prices this summer have drivers feeling the pain each time they pull up to the pump, as record prices squeeze their wallets.
"Probably at least 15 more dollars per fill up," driver Molly Forrest told FOX 9. "It’s concerning that’s for sure."
At the White House on Wednesday, President Joe Biden moved to offer some relief, calling on Congress to suspend the federal gas tax for three months. That move would save Americans 18.3 cents per gallon of gas, and 24.3 cents per gallon of diesel.
"There were times when it would climb 20 cents overnight, so if that happens it wipes out that 18 cents real quick," St. Anthony Village’s Murphy’s Service Center owner Chuck Graff told FOX 9.
The other trouble is there’s nothing to stop gas station owners from simply keeping the profit for themselves. But Graff says if a gas tax holiday is approved by Congress, he would let his customers keep the extra savings.
"I’d do it, [because] I’d look like a bad guy if I didn’t and I’d like to think that I’m a good guy," Graff said.
Still, he could see some of his colleagues being less generous, "18 cents a gallon adds up on some of these high-volume stations," Graff explained.
A federal gas tax holiday also means less money going back to our country’s budget for road and bridge maintenance.
"It could affect infrastructure projects too, so we’re going to have to pay for it somehow," Forrest said. | https://www.fox9.com/news/congrss-considering-gas-tax-holiday-as-minnesotans-pay-more-at-pump | 2022-06-23T04:19:00Z | https://www.fox9.com/news/congrss-considering-gas-tax-holiday-as-minnesotans-pay-more-at-pump | false | 1 |
Roundup: Child porn, sex allegations in Thousand Oaks man's arrest, more local news
Here's a roundup of recent incidents and announcements from Ventura County agencies:
Newbury Park man, 19, arrested on child porn and sex allegations
THOUSAND OAKS — A 19-year-old Newbury Park man has been arrested on suspicion of multiple felony offenses involving child pornography and sex acts with a minor, authorities said.
Two other possible victims emerged during the course of the investigation, leading officials believe there may be even more victims.
Connor Joseph Kerns was arrested Tuesday after detectives served a search warrant at his home in the 400 block of Fallbrook Avenue, according to the Ventura County Sheriff's Office. The sheriff's office is contracted to provide police services in Thousand Oaks.
The arrest followed an investigation into Kerns' alleged interactions last July with a girl in Ojai, where the sheriff's office also provides police services.
Authorities say Kerns tricked the minor into sending child sexual abuse material over social media. The girl sent nude images and sex videos, according to sheriff's officials. The suspect offered to pay for the material and also allegedly blackmailed the girl into sending more by threatening to make public the images he'd received.
He then reportedly posed as a hacker, claiming through a fictitious account he'd hacked into Kerns' account. As the phony hacker, he coerced the girl to take part in sex acts with Kerns by threatening to leak the nude photos and other material, according to the sheriff's account.
Kerns eventually convinced the girl to meet him in person, when officials say he "extorted" her for sex acts and more pornographic material.
Kerns was interviewed by sheriff's detectives during the investigation. As the probe was underway, authorities received information from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children about two other possible victims. Both are juvenile females, one in Los Angeles County and one in Tennessee, who were reportedly contacted by Kerns under circumstances similar to the Ojai case.
Sheriff's Detective Rosalio Cobian said after investigators learned of the other potential victims, they moved more quickly to make an arrest.
Kerns was arrested on suspicion of 22 felony and misdemeanor offenses, including forcible rape, felony sexual exploitation of a child, using a minor for commercial sex acts and other violations.
He remained in Ventura County jail Wednesday evening in lieu of $1 million bail. He is slated to appear in Ventura County Superior Court for arraignment at 1:30 p.m. Thursday in room 13.
Sheriff's officials said Wednesday they believe there could be additional victims. They asked anyone with information to call Detective Cobian with the major crimes unit at 805-384-4723.
Woman allegedly ran over ex on purpose
VENTURA — A 47-year-old woman was arrested after allegedly running over her former partner in Ventura Sunday night.
Authorities responded shortly before 8 p.m. to reports of a hit-and-run in a cul-de-sac in the 300 block of South Dunning Street, according to the Ventura Police Department. The area is west of the Pacific View mall and east of Main Street.
When officers arrived, they found a 54-year-old woman lying in the street, authorities said.
The suspect allegedly ran the victim over with her sedan after an altercation, according to police. The collision caused life-threatening injuries to the victim, while the suspect fled the scene before officers arrived.
The victim was taken by ambulance to Ventura County Medical Center where she remained in in critical condition as of Wednesday afternoon, according to Sgt. Joe Munger.
Investigators determined the two women were formerly in a romantic relationship that ended recently, Munger said.
The suspect was arrested Tuesday and booked into Todd Road Jail on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon.
Thefts of Chevy, GMC trucks soar
OXNARD — Oxnard Police Department officials said they've seen an increase in the number of full-size Chevrolet and GMC pickup trucks stolen this year.
Since January, 25 Chevy Silverados and six GMC Sierras have been reported stolen, the agency said Wednesday.
The department's auto theft investigators found evidence indicating thieves have found a way to defeat the trucks' ignition system. The stolen trucks are likely being driven to the Los Angeles area, where they are being dismantled, authorities said. Most have had catalytic converters removed.
Officials urged residents to always lock their vehicles avoid leaving any hidden keys, including valet keys. Various anti-theft devices can also be effective.
If you have information about stolen vehicles or other criminal activity, you can call Oxnard police at 805-385-7600.
Items may be updated if more information becomes available.

PARIS (AP) — Paris prosecutors have opened a rape investigation into accusations that a member of the French government, a woman who worked as a doctor before joining politics, reportedly performed gynecological exams on two women without their consent.
French law defines rape as any act of sexual penetration committed on others by violence, coercion, threat or surprise.
The government member, Chrysoula Zacharopoulou, was named secretary of state for development last month. She and her office have not commented publicly on the accusations, which emerged Wednesday.
The first rape complaint was filed in late May, soon after Zacharopoulou’s government appointment, and another was filed last week, the Paris prosecutor’s office said Wednesday. The prosecutor’s office said it ordered an investigation.
Details of the complaints have not been released. French media reports said the women accused Zacharopoulou of penetration during gynecological exams without their consent.
Two men in French President Emmanuel Macron’s government have also been accused of rape, Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin and Damien Abad, who is in charge of policies for the disabled. Both firmly deny wrongdoing. | https://myfox8.com/international/ap-international/top-french-official-accused-of-rape-during-gynecology-exams/ | 2022-06-23T04:24:56Z | https://myfox8.com/international/ap-international/top-french-official-accused-of-rape-during-gynecology-exams/ | false | 44 |

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — The Tampa Bay Lightning’s three-peat bid is in deep trouble.
Nazem Kadri scored at 12:02 of overtime and the Colorado Avalanche took a 3-1 series lead by beating the Lightning 3-2 in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday night.
Tampa Bay faces a daunting task to become the first team since the New York Islanders won four championships in a row from 1980-83 to lift the Cup three straight seasons. Teams down 3-1 in the final have rebounded to win it all just once in 36 tries.
The Lightning could not have asked for a better start when Anthony Cirelli scored from the slot on the rebound 36 seconds into the game. But Tampa Bay could not build on its early advantage despite outshooting the Avalanche 17-4 in the first period.
After Nathan MacKinnon tied it with his first goal during the final during a power play at 5:17 of the second, Victor Hedman regained the momentum for the Lightning after making several moves bringing the puck into the offense zone to elude the Avalanche defenders and scored with a long-range backhander from the right faceoff dot with 9:18 left in the second.
Avalanche goalie Darcy Kuemper, who was pulled midway through second after allowing five goals on 22 shots in Tampa Bay’s 6-2 win in Game 3, robbed Ross Colton from in-close with a second left in the second. The stop proved pivotal when Colorado’s Andrew Cogliano got the equalizer at 2:53 of the third.
Colorado took control in overtime, getting 11 of the 14 shots, and hitting both the post and crossbar.
Lightning goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy, who finished with 35 saves, stopped Logan O’Connor on a breakaway.
Tampa Bay had its franchise playoff-record eight-games winning streak at home end. The Lightning outscored opponents 33-13 over those eight wins.

A police chief accused of mismanaging the response to the May 24 school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, that claimed the lives of 19 children and two teachers, has been put on leave, according to the media.
In a statement on Wednesday, School district superintendent Hal Harrell said he had placed Pedro Arredondo, head of the school district police force, on administrative leave effective immediately, citing “the lack of clarity that remains and the unknown timing of when I will receive the results of the investigations”, the BBC reported.
He said he had originally planned to “wait until the investigation was complete before making personnel decisions”, but was “still without details” of what the inquiry has found.
Arredondo, head of the school district police force, has been blamed for law enforcement delays in confronting the 18-year-old gunman Salvador Ramos.
Just days after the shooting at the Robb Elementary School, Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steven McCraw had claimed that local police made the “wrong decision” by waiting nearly an hour to breach the school classroom where Ramos shot at children and teachers before he was neutralised by law enforcement.
Nearly 20 officers stood outside the classroom during the attack and the on-scene commander believed at the time that the shooter had barricaded himself and that the children were no longer at risk, according to McCraw.
At a state Senate hearing on Tuesday, McCraw said that Arredondo had “decided to place the lives of officers before the lives of children” and labelled the response an “abject failure”.
This was the third-deadliest school shooting in the US, after the Virginia Tech shooting in 2007 and the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in 2012, and the deadliest in Texas.
According to the latest data from Gun Violence Archive, the US has witnessed 267 mass shootings since the start of the year, with more than 20,000 lives lost to gun violence.

Khloe Kardashian looks slimmer than ever in a skintight dress after weight comments
Khloe Kardashian drove Instagram users crazy by posting a stunning video of herself striding in an all-pink ensemble.
The stunner’s video was shared by her hairdresser Andrew Fitzsimons as Khloe showed off her long blonde locks.
Khloe wore a tight pink top and eye-catching pink shiny pants after getting her hair, nails and makeup done.
One’s mom was sporting toned arms, shoulders and waist after revealing in February that she had lost weight.
This comes after Khloe broke up with Tristan Thompson, who admitted having fathered another woman’s son.
Posting his progression photos he said: “About three months later.
“‘Come on @ coachjoe.paris, we are sculpting my back and my arm.”
Khloe looks fantastic in both, but in the second she has very visibly toned shoulders, arms and waist.
She talked about her struggles with weight in the most recent episode of The Kardashians, recalling how when she was shopping with her sisters she would be escorted away from the store because her size wasn’t being carried on the shelves.
Khloe recently gave an insight into her “doomed” relationship with her ex.
The 37-year-old split from Tristan in January 2022 after the basketball player admitted he was the father of another child.
The child’s mother was fitness instructor Maralee Nichols.
In April, Khloe spoke about the matter and claimed she was done with Tristan, who previously cheated on her, even when she was pregnant with their daughter True.
She called him a “good guy” and a “good dad”, but said he “just wasn’t the guy for her.”
Tristan said in a statement in January: “Today, the paternity test results reveal that I had a child with Maralee Nichols. I take full responsibility for my actions. Now that paternity has been established, I can’t wait to raise our son amicably. “
He continued: “Khloe, you don’t deserve this. You don’t deserve the pain and humiliation I caused you. You don’t deserve the way I’ve treated you over the years.
“My actions are certainly not in line with the way I see you. I have the utmost respect and love for you. Regardless of what you might think. Once again, I’m so incredibly sorry. “

Over 1000 Australian Business Numbers were created in 2021 from Dubbo residents and over half of those were for construction businesses.
With builders being booked out 12 months in advance the need for skilled workers continues to grow.

According to the Australian Government business website, as a contractor, if you do not have an ABN before doing work, your hirer may legally withhold the top rate of tax, plus the Medicare levy, from your payment.
This could potentially explain the sudden rise as businesses start to hire people on a contract rather than commit to full time workers.
According to Dubbo Regional Council Economic development and marketing manager Josie Howard construction workers were classified as essential workers during COVID-19 restrictions and received government packages which may have been an incentive for people to start their own business.
It's still extremely hard to get construction workers, tradies and apprentice tradespeople throughout the whole region.
- Josie Howard
Dubbo's Chamber of Commerce president Errin Williamson said tradesmen are "crying out" for more tradespeople across all specialities in construction.
"There is a high demand right now for construction and the need to get people in these roles to complete jobs for tradesmen," she said.
Ms Williamson said that COVID accelerated government projects and allowed easier access and more demands for building new homes.
"Rising house prices meant that renovations and extensions were a priority," she said.
To entice people to join the trades Ms Williamson said pathway programs within schools are important to encourage apprenticeships.

"We need to make it more enticing for skill migrants and workers to move to Dubbo and the outlying regions," she said.
Chamber of Commerce treasurer Mick McKenna said government funded infrastructure projects in our region have been a major boost for Dubbo, but have dragged away tradespeople form their "normal" projects and jobs.
While Dubbo businesses in the construction industry all have shortages of tradespeople, labourers and apprentices, there are plenty of vacancies across a range of industries for people to fill.
"Enticing skilled tradespeople may be easier if they know their spouses and children will also get jobs in Dubbo," he said.
VERTO's Chief Executive Officer Ron Maxwell said commencements of apprenticeships have increased nationally, including Dubbo which has seen an 8.4 percent rise, but people still aren't going into the trades.

He put that down to one particular reason.
"It's a stigma of people believing they have to go to university," he said.
"If you look at the lifetime earnings of someone at university, as opposed to a tradesperson... the lifetime earnings end up being greater, just drive around Dubbo and see who has the bigger house, it's the tradies."
Mr Maxwell said the lack of overseas migrants coming to take up these positions has been hard on the economy.
"You don't have that labour coming through anymore and it's tricky times for everyone," he said.

Kylie Jenner wears the viral and extravagant bikini that shows the nipples
Kylie Jenner, The makeup mogul has joined the Free the Nipple movement, a kind of social media protest that had a moment in 2014.
As you probably know, Instagram censors “female” nipples but not male ones, which many see as a sexist double standard that arbitrarily shames half the population. Anyway, that’s what kylie jenner used as a caption for a photo she posted on Instagram of herself sunbathing on a bikini top bearing the image of, nipples!
Jenner limited comments on the post to within minutes of uploading it on Monday June 6, but before he did, followers rallied with comments like “Absolutely screaming ma’am” and “We just want to know your son’s name 😭” , which, while respecting privacy, I’m also curious. In case you missed it, the businesswoman welcomed her second child with her boyfriend Travis Scott in February, announced that the baby was a boy named wolfand then claimed that the baby was a boy whose name wasn’t Wolf because they weren’t feeling that as a name.
Kylie Jenner tagged fashion house Jean Paul Gaultier on the second slide; the top of it seems to be part of a line of… how to put it? The line comes in multiple skin tones and, yes, it does have a (blurred) crotch:
Instagram contents
This content can also be viewed on the site it originates from.
Which leads us to wonder: What is Kylie wearing in her bottoms? No, sorry, sorry for making you imagine that, I apologize.
This is… actually… nothing new! “Free the Nipple” imagery was used in a 2018 Gaultier show, and Kylie Jenner wore a Venus de Milo swimsuit (not exactly the same, but you get the idea) by Gaultier in 2019. That item sold for just under $600, but if you want to recreate this look at home, you don’t have to go designer. The TaTa Top costs a snazzy $35.

Austin Hays hit for the cycle and starting pitcher Tyler Wells threw five shutout innings as the Baltimore Orioles defeated the visiting Washington Nationals 7-0 in a rain-shortened game Wednesday night.
Hays went 4-for-4, completing the cycle with a sixth-inning double with rain coming down. He became the franchise’s sixth player to hit for the cycle, though all the others achieved the feat in the seventh inning or later.
This game lasted just six innings as it didn’t resume after a second rain delay.
Anthony Santander and Trey Mancini also homered.
Wells (5-4) won his third consecutive start and his fourth straight decision. It was his 14th start of the season and just the third time he didn’t yield a run.
Rookie reliever Nick Vespi was credited with his first save by pitching one inning without allowing a hit.
Nationals starter Patrick Corbin (3-10) gave up seven hits in four innings. He walked one and struck out six.
It was a much-needed result at the end of a 3-2 homestand for the Orioles, who are scheduled for their next 10 games on the road.
After only three hits in a shutout loss a night earlier, the Orioles managed three first-inning hits Wednesday.
Hays led off with an infield single and Mancini followed with a single. One out later, Ryan Mountcastle drilled a run-scoring double to right field.
Hays led off the third with a home run for his 10th long ball of the season. One out later, Santander blasted his 13th homer.
Corbin has surrendered 13 home runs in 73 2/3 innings this season.
Hays tripled with two outs in the fourth inning, but didn’t score.
There was a rain delay prior to the bottom of the fifth. In the sixth, Hays continued his huge performance with a two-run double. Mancini followed with a two-run homer.
The Nationals and Orioles will meet for two more games in mid-September in Washington.

Cory told CoventryLive: “Basically, I was walking out of the Rose and Crown Pub after having a meal with my girlfriend and her daughter. We walked up to where you have Acti-Vape and Stardust and all the shops, and he has come flying out of a street, went to run us over and then stopped. He pulled his car up at the side of the road, jumped out, running at me screaming.”
He continued: “He basically left the car rolling in the middle of the street about to write off several other cars which were stopped and then he chased me all around the streets basically. He then got back in his car, flew off somewhere, and come back down Brays Lane the opposite way towards us again as we were walking up towards William Hill.
“He jumped out of the car like something out of a horror film, chasing me down with a knife, then I fell on the floor and he sliced my wrist and basically my back is cut as well from falling.”
Cory is appealing to any witnesses who may have been in the area at the time of the incident. He said: “I would really appreciate it as I know there were a lot of witnesses, the place was packed with people."
Police have launched an investigation and are appealing to the public to get in touch with any information. A spokesman for West Midlands Police said: “We attended Binley Road, Coventry, following reports of a stabbing at around 8pm on Monday (20 June).
“We found a man in his 20s with hand and shoulder injuries which were not serious. We are carrying out enquiries and anyone with information can contact us via Live Chat on our website and quote 20/543797/22.”

1/6 panel to hear of Trump’s pressure on Justice Dept.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Jan. 6 committee will hear from former Justice Department officials who faced down a relentless pressure campaign from Donald Trump over the 2020 presidential election results while suppressing a bizarre challenge from within their own ranks.
The hearing Thursday will bring attention to a memorably turbulent stretch at the department as Trump in his final days in office sought to bend to his will a law enforcement agency that has long cherished its independence from the White House. The testimony is aimed at showing how Trump not only relied on outside advisers to press his election fraud claims, but also tried to leverage the powers of federal executive branch agencies.
The witnesses will include Jeffrey Rosen, who was acting attorney general during the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol. Three days earlier, Rosen was part of a tense Oval Office showdown in which Trump contemplated replacing him with a lower-level official, Jeffrey Clark, who wanted to champion Trump’s claims of election fraud.
Two other former department officials, Rosen’s top deputy, Richard Donoghue, and Steven Engel, are also scheduled to testify. Both warned Trump at the White House meeting that they’d resign, and that many of the department’s lawyers would follow, if he replaced Rosen with Clark.
“You could have a situation here, within 24 hours, you have hundreds of people resigning from the Justice Department,” Donoghue has said he told Trump. “Is that good for anyone? Is it good for the department? Is it good for the country? Is it good for you. It’s not.”
Only then did Trump relent. The night, and later his administration, ended with Rosen still in power.
The hearing is the fifth this month by the committee investigating the run-up to the insurrection at the Capitol, when Trump loyalists stormed the building as lawmakers were certifying the results of the election won by Joe Biden. Witnesses have included police officers attacked at the Capitol as well as lawyers, a television executive and local election officials who all resisted demands to alter results in Trump’s favor.
The committee last week presented videotaped depositions of former Attorney General William Barr, who castigated Trump’s fraud claims as “bull—,” “bogus” and “idiotic” and resigned after failing to convince the president of that.
Thursday’s hearing will focus on what happened next as Rosen, Barr’s top deputy, took over the department and found himself immediately besieged by Trump’s demands for Justice Department action.
In one phone conversation, according to handwritten notes taken by Donoghue and made public by lawmakers last year, Trump directed to Rosen to “Just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the R. Congressmen.”
Around that time, Trump was introduced by a Republican congressman, Rep. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania, to Clark, who’d joined the department in 2018 as its chief environmental lawyer and was later appointed to run its civil division. Clark was earlier subpoenaed by the committee to give a deposition but will not be among the witnesses Thursday.
Clark, according to statements from other Justice Department officials, met with Trump despite being ordered not to by bosses at the department and presented himself as eager to aid the president’s efforts to challenge the election results. A report released last year by the Senate Judiciary Committee that painted Clark as a relentless advocate for Trump included a draft letter pushing Georgia officials to convene a special legislative session to reconsider the election results.
Clark wanted the letter sent, but superiors at the Justice Department refused.
The situation came to a head on Jan. 3, 2021, a Sunday, when Clark informed Rosen in a private meeting at the Justice Department that Trump wanted to replace him with Clark as acting attorney general. Rosen, according to the Senate report, responded that “there was no universe I could imagine in which that would ever happen” and that he would not accept being fired by a subordinate.
Rosen then contacted the White House to request a meeting. That night, Rosen, Donoghue and Engel, along with Clark, gathered with Trump and top White House lawyers for a contentious, hours-long Oval Office meeting about whether the president should follow through with his plans for a radical leadership change at the department.
According to testimony given by Rosen, Trump opened the meeting by saying, “One thing we know is you, Rosen, aren’t going to do anything to overturn the election.”
Donoghue and Engel made clear to Trump that they and large numbers of other Justice Department officials would resign if Trump fired Rosen. White House lawyers said the same. Pat Cipollone, then the White House counsel, at one point said the letter that Clark wanted to send was a “murder-suicide pact.”
“Steve Engel at one point said, ‘Jeff Clark will be leading a graveyard. And what are you going to get done with a graveyard,’ that there would be such an exodus of the leadership,” Donoghue told the Senate Judiciary Committee. “So it was very strongly worded to the president that that would happen.”
Donoghue also sought to dissuade Trump from believing that Clark had the legal background to do as the president wished since he was not a criminal prosecutor at the department.
“And he kind of retorted by saying, ‘Well, I’ve done a lot of very complicated appeals and civil litigation, environmental litigation, and things like that,’” Donoghue said. “And I said, ‘That’s right. You’re an environmental lawyer. How about you go back to your office, and we’ll call you when there’s an oil spill.’”

Philosophy almost always
follows the event. The French revolution and Napoleon come first: then Hegel.
In a rare inversion of
this order, Gregoire Chamayou’s The Ungovernable Society: a genealogy of
authoritarian liberalism came first, in 2014, and then Macron.
Chamayou is one of the
rare philosophers to follow Foucault’s work and actually do research. In Chamayou’s
case, the research is on one of the turning points of the seventies – the emergence,
within enterprises, consulting firms and conservative think tanks, of a grand
strategy to fight back against civil rights movement, unions, and the formation
of counter or at least a-capitalistic organizations. Although Chamayou does not
talk about nudgery – the special addition to the mix identified with the Obama
era – his diagnosis of, say, dialogue as a strategy by established power
to make itself seem open and to label its opponents as extremists is uncannily
predictive of the Macron strategy that has come so undone this year in the
legislatives.
One can read the book
as a horror story, or as a cynical affirmation of all that we already know. A
particularly vivid illustration of this is in the chapter on Nestle’s discovery
of dialogue. Nestle, as people of a certain age – my age – will remember, was
making tons of money from powder baby formula, marketing in areas, like Southern India, Central Africa,
etc., where water was generally polluted, sometimes enormously polluted – due of
course to the marketing of products from another multinational, Monsanto, among
others. When this issue was brought up, Nestle dismissed it - which aroused
fury among certain groups, which launched a boycott. Of course, in Switzerland
Nestle used the tried and true method – suing distributors of pamphlets urging
the boycott – to try to censor this (not an instance of cancel culture – cancel
culture would only be involved if boycotters said nasty things about
celebrities huckstering Nestle products. We have to remember, cancel culture
targets people who are un-fireable, thus giving them a victim status that results
in NYT op eds and cocktail party chatter) The boycott, especially in the U.S.,
started catching on – or at least the rhetoric directed against Nestle.
Chamayou went through the archives of the people who were hired to undo the
damage. It is there he found many communications about the need for dialogue –
not dialogue involving third world women giving their kids corrupted baby
formula, of course, but dialogue with “respectable” leaders of the boycott, or
at least names in the liberal humanitarian set, that would have the strategic
effect of creating respectability for those willing to “compromise”, and thus
making those who weren’t seem like extremists who had … refused dialogue!
Things go swimmingly, dialogue becomes a value in itself, which is always a
good thing, as it allowed Nestle to go on selling its products while giving it
the seal of approval of dialogue partners.
Transpose this to
2019, when Macron went on a “listening” tour in response to the Gilets Jaunes,
and one finds the same thing – the need for “dialogue”, the finding of venues
in which the dialogue would be managed the right way, Macron’s creating an
image of a leader who listens, etc.
Cynicism only goes so
far, however. Here one must supplement Chamayou with the invaluable essay by
Erwin Goffman. Cooling the Mark out, from 1952. The problem with the boycotters,
dissidents, unemployed disgruntled and dirty masses is that they might feel
used. And this, of course, is the problem with marks in a confidence game. Ideally,
they will not see through the game, and thus the con men can take to the road,
trusting that they will not be caught.
“Sometimes, however, a
mark is not quite prepared to accept his loss as a gain in experience and to
say and do nothing about his venture. He may feel moved to complain to the
police or to chase after the operators. In the terminology of the trade, the
mark may squawk, beef, or come through. From the operators' point of view, this
kind of behavior is bad for business. It gives the members of the mob a bad
reputation with such police as have not. yet been fixed and with marks who have
not yet been taken. In order to avoid this adverse publicity, an additional
phase is sometimes added at the end of the play. It is called cooling the mark
out After the blowoff has occurred, one of the operators stays with the mark
and makes an effort to keep the anger of the mark within manageable and
sensible proportions. The operator stays behind his teammates in the capacity
of what might be called a cooler and exercises upon the mark the art of
consolation. An attempt is made to define the situation for the mark in a way
that makes it easy for him to accept the inevitable and quietly go home. The
mark is given instruction in the philosophy of taking a loss.”
As we all know, the
coolers of the mark have an institutional position: they are, collectively, the
establishment press. And that is their main job – to cool out the marks who
bear, in their wounded lives, the impress of the organized con game that is
politics in the era of democracy’s decline. In Macron’s case, there was an
impressive array of coolers – from Le Monde to Figaro, from BMTV to Le Causeur.
But the problem, for Macronia, is that the coolers themselves have interests. It
might be in their interest – as it is in the interest of the owner of BMTV – to
crown Zemour king. It might be that they can’t persuade their journalists to
keep going along. Liberation, for instance, has moved away from Serge July’s
neo-liberalism by sheer self-interest – July’s generation isn’t going to buy
the rag, and the journalists who write for it just can’t stomach the sheer idiocy
anymore – unless of course they can secure rich gigs with Institut Montaigne.
So, France is going
through the era of cooling the mark out, and the bumps are going to be wild. | https://limitedinc.blogspot.com/2022/06/in-praise-of-gregoire-chayamou.html | 2022-06-23T05:11:01Z | https://limitedinc.blogspot.com/2022/06/in-praise-of-gregoire-chayamou.html | true | 1 |
Sound off! Trumpet is 1st bloodhound to win Westminster show
TARRYTOWN, N.Y. (AP) — Now this hound has something to toot his horn about.
A bloodhound named Trumpet won the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show on Wednesday night.
Trumpet beat a French bulldog, a German shepherd, a Maltese, an English setter, a Samoyed and a Lakeland terrier to take the trophy.
“I am so excited for Trumpet,” said handler Heather Helmer, who co-owns and bred the 4-year-old.
Trumpet became the first bloodhound to win Westminster.
Winston, a French bulldog co-owned by NFL defensive lineman Morgan Fox, took second in the nation’s most prestigious dog show.
The competition drew more than 3,000 purebred dogs, ranging from affenpinschers to Yorkshire terriers. The goal is to crown the dog that most represents the ideal for its breed.
Usually held in winter at New York City’s Madison Square Garden, the show moved to the suburban Lyndhurst estate last year and this year because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Westminster is often described as the Super Bowl of U.S. dog shows, and Winston aimed to make it so for Fox, a defensive lineman who was just signed by the Los Angeles Chargers and has played for the Los Angeles Rams and the Carolina Panthers.
Before the finals, Fox said he was “ecstatic” when Winston made it there.
“He’s basically a superstar,” Fox said by phone Wednesday.
The dog came his way from his grandmother, Sandy Fox, who has bred and shown Frenchies for years. Morgan Fox grew up with one and says that as he watched Winston mature, he knew the dog was a winner in both appearance and character.
“He’s a joy to be around,” Fox said. “He always walks around with as much of a smile on his face as a dog can have.”
Winston, currently the top-ranked dog in the country, faces Striker, a Samoyed that also made the finals last year; River, a big-winning German shepherd, and Trumpet, a bloodhound descended from the 2014 winner of another major show, the Thanksgiving-season National Dog Show.
After topping the canine rankings last year, Striker has lately been hitting a few dog shows “to keep his head in the game,” said handler Laura King.
What makes the snow-white Samoyed shine in competition? “His heart,” said King, of Milan, Illinois.
“His charisma shows when he’s showing,” and he vocally complains when he’s not, she said.
While he was quiet in the ring, an Alaskan Malamute provided a yowling — cheering?— soundtrack for a semifinal round featuring the Samoyed and other breeds classified as working dogs.
Then there are MM the Lakeland terrier — terriers have won many a Westminster — and a Maltese that clearly is aiming for stardom: Her name is Hollywood.
But the belle of the ball could be an English setter. Belle made the finals after being squired around the ring by one of her breeders and owners, Amanda Ciaravino — a feat at an event where many top contenders are accompanied by full-time, career handlers.
“It’s amazing,” an emotional Ciaravino said. “I’m so proud of her.”
Monty, a giant schnauzer that made the semifinals Wednesday night but didn’t advance further, is a son of the dog that won Westminster’s runner-up prize in 2018. Classified as a working dog, Monty enjoys yard work — which, to him, means presenting a football to be thrown while handler and co-owner Katie Bernardin’s husband, Adam, is mowing the lawn, she said.
Another competitor, Ooma, was the only Chinook that showed up. The sled-pullers are the official dog of the state of New Hampshire, but they’re rare nationwide.
“I would love to see a couple more” in the Westminster ring, said Ooma’s breeder, owner and handler, Patti Richards of West Haven, Vermont. “Without people who will show and breed, we’re in danger of losing our breed.”
Bonnie the Brittany is owner-handler Dr. Jessica Sielawa’s first show dog, and the two didn’t come away with a ribbon on Wednesday. But their teamwork extends beyond the ring.
Bonnie accompanies Sielawa to work at her chiropractic practice in Syracuse, New York, where “she’s really helped people with their emotional stress,” Sielawa said.
She plans to get her show dog certified as a therapy dog, too.

The bodies of two Jesuit priests and a tour guide shot dead this week in a gang-ravaged area of northern Mexico have been found after a major search, authorities said Wednesday.
The three were killed on Monday after a suspected run-in with a wanted drug trafficker in the border state of Chihuahua, a crime that drew swift condemnation from the Pope.
“We’ve found and recovered… the bodies of the Jesuit priests Javier Campos, Joaquin Mora and the tour guide Pedro Palma,” Chihuahua Governor Maria Eugenia Campos said in a video posted to social media.
Pope Francis said he was shocked by the killings as authorities hunted for the murder suspect.
“So many killings in Mexico,” Francis said at the end of his general audience for thousands of people in St. Peter’s Square.
The state prosecutor’s office in Chihuahua said the three were killed after Palma took refuge in a church in the town of Cerocahui to protect himself from an attack.
The office named Jose Noriel Portillo Gil as a suspect in the murders, and offered a reward of five million pesos, or nearly $250,000, for information relating to his whereabouts.
The state said in 2018 that Portillo, who is also the prime suspect in the murder of American teacher Patrick Braxton-Andrews, was involved in the drug trade.
The three bodies were taken from the church by a group of men in the back of a pickup truck, Luis Gerardo Moro, head of the religious order in Mexico, said in a radio interview.
Chihuahua attorney general Roberto Fierro said authorities were also looking for two people who were kidnapped on Monday before the killings of the priests and tour guide.
Authorities had told Reuters on Tuesday the killings followed the kidnapping of four tourists at a nearby hotel, however, Fierro said on Wednesday the state did not have reports of missing tourists.
President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said the wife of one of the murder victims is among the missing, apparently referring to Palma.

Boris Johnson was accused of failing to lift a finger to prevent the rail strikes which have caused travel chaos.
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said the Prime Minister and Transport Secretary Grant Shapps had refused to meet the unions representing rail workers ahead of this week’s industrial action.
But the Prime Minister hit out at Sir Keir, saying it was a “disgrace” that Labour MPs had joined RMT members on the picket lines outside railway stations.
“What we have got to do is modernise our railways,” Mr Johnson told the Labour leader.
“It is a disgrace, when we are planning to make sure that you don’t have ticket offices that sell fewer than one ticket per hour, that he yesterday had 25 Labour MPs out on the picket lines.”
Mr Johnson said Labour was “backing the strikers while we back the strivers”.
Sir Keir shot back: “The Prime Minister of this country and his Transport Secretary haven’t attended a single meeting, held a conversation or lifted a finger to stop these strikes.”
But he said on Monday they found time to attend a “lavish ball” to raise funds for the Tory party, where a donor has £120,000 to have a joint dinner with Mr Johnson and predecessors Theresa May and David Cameron.
“If there is money coming his way, he is there,” Sir Keir said.
He said that “rather than blame everyone else”, the Prime Minister should “do his job, get round the table and get the trains running”.
The Prime Minister said: “We are doing everything we can to prevent these strikes.”
But it was for the rail companies and the unions to negotiate a settlement, he said.
Following Tuesday’s strikes on the rail network and London Underground, trains will also be halted on Thursday and Saturday.
Labour’s frontbenchers had been told to avoid picket lines but senior party figures including whip Navendu Mishra joined striking rail workers.
Deputy leader Angela Rayner also gave her clear backing to the industrial action, tweeting: “Workers have been left with no choice.”
Sir Keir is understood to be waiting until the end of the industrial action before instructing chief whip Alan Campbell to deal with any disciplinary issues relating to the strike.
Following PMQs, a Labour spokesman said Mr Campbell would make a decision in the “next few days”.
He would not be drawn on what form any action might take, but said “the chief whip is aware of Keir’s wishes”.
“I think the right way is for the process to go ahead as it should, and that is for the chief whip to speak to the individuals concerned,” he added. | https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/politics/4446315/johnson-and-starmer-clash-over-biggest-rail-strikes-in-a-generation/ | 2022-06-23T05:18:18Z | https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/politics/4446315/johnson-and-starmer-clash-over-biggest-rail-strikes-in-a-generation/ | false | 8 |
Mexican Alejandro Kirk leads catchers in voting for the MLB All-Star Game
Mexican catcher Alejandro Kirk surprisingly leads the voting at his position in the American League for the 2022 Major League Baseball All-Star Game, and he does so by taking an advantage of more than half a million votes over his closest challenger.
One week before voting closes for the midseason game that will be played at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles on July 19, Kirk is looking to become the first Mexican catcher to participate in an MLB All-Star Game.
Kirk, 23 years old and born in Tijuana, Baja California, plays for the Toronto Blue Jays and has compiled a total of 1,057,008 votes, while his closest competitor, José Treviño of the New York Yankees, has 387,983.
Venezuelan Salvador Pérez, of the Kansas City Royals, is third with 266,604 votes, followed by Puerto Ricans Martín Maldonado, of the Houston Astros with 231,005 and Christian Vázquez, of the Boston Red Sox, with 199,010, to make up the Top-5
Among AL catchers, Kirk has 35% of the vote to Treviño’s 13%, the biggest lead of any candidate at any position — except nonvoted pitchers — for the All-Star Game. .
Although it seems surprising that the Mexican is leading, his advantage at the top has been earned as he leads all catchers with a batting average of .307 and a WAR of 2.2. In addition, he has six home runs, 22 RBIs, 26 walks received against 21 strikeouts.
In 58 games, he has 55 hits, 30 runs scored and 10 doubles. His OBP is .397, with a .464 slugging percentage and an .861 OPS. He has only hit six times into a double play.
In 36 games — 33 starts and 29 of them complete — behind catcher this season, he has worked 290.2 innings in which he has committed a single error for a .997 fielding percentage. He doesn’t have a pass ball and his stolen-out percentage is 36%, as he has stolen 14 bases and put eight out.
Blue Jays pitchers have only six wild pitches committed when Kirk is at catcher. | https://codelist.biz/2022/06/22/mexican-alejandro-kirk-leads-catchers-in-voting-for-the-mlb-all-star-game/ | 2022-06-23T05:20:28Z | https://codelist.biz/2022/06/22/mexican-alejandro-kirk-leads-catchers-in-voting-for-the-mlb-all-star-game/ | true | 1 |

The Uvalde school district’s police chief has been placed on leave following allegations his response to the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School that left 19 students and two teachers dead was an “abject failure”. Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District superintendent Hal Harrell said that he put schools police chief Pete Arredondo on administrative leave because the facts of what happened the day in southern Texas remain unclear.
In a statement, Mr Harrell did not address the officer’s actions as on-site commander during the attack, but said he did not know when details of multiple investigations into the law enforcement response to the slayings would be revealed. “From the beginning of this horrible event, I shared that the district would wait until the investigation was complete before making personnel decisions,” Mr Harrell said.
“Because of the lack of clarity that remains and the unknown timing of when I will receive the results of the investigations, I have made the decision to place chief Arredondo on administrative leave effective on this date.” A spokesperson for the Uvalde school district, Anne Marie Espinoza, declined to say whether Mr Arredondo would continue to be paid while on leave.
Another officer will assume the embattled chief’s duties, Mr Harrell said. Colonel Steven McCraw, director of the Texas Department of Public Safety, told a state Senate hearing on Tuesday that Mr Arredondo made “terrible decisions” as the massacre unfolded on May 24 , and that the police response was an “abject failure”.
Three minutes after 18-year-old Salvador Ramos entered the school, sufficient armed law enforcement were on scene to stop the gunman, Mr McCraw testified. Yet police officers armed with rifles waited in a school hallway for more than an hour while the gunman carried out the massacre.
The classroom door could not be locked from the inside, but there is no indication officers tried to open the door while the gunman was inside, Mr McCraw said. The colonel has said parents begged police outside the school to move in and students inside the classroom repeatedly pleaded with 911 operators for help while more than a dozen officers waited in a hallway.
Officers from other agencies urged Mr Arredondo to let them move in because children were in danger. “The only thing stopping a hallway of dedicated officers from entering Room 111 and 112 was the on-scene commander who decided to place the lives of officers before the lives of children,” Mr McCraw said.
Mr Arredondo has tried to defend his actions, telling the Texas Tribune that he did not consider himself the commander in charge of operations and that he assumed someone else had taken control of the law enforcement response. He said he did not have his police and campus radios but that he used his cellphone to call for tactical gear, a sniper and the classroom keys.
It is still not clear why it took so long for police to enter the classroom, how they communicated with each other during the attack and what their body cameras show. Officials have declined to release more details, citing the investigation.
Mr Arredondo, 50, grew up in Uvalde and spent much of his nearly 30-year career in law enforcement in the city. He took the head police job at the school district in 2020 and was sworn in as a member of the city council in a closed-door ceremony on May 31. | https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/uvalde-police-chief-put-leave-7243075 | 2022-06-23T05:25:22Z | https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/uvalde-police-chief-put-leave-7243075 | false | 37 |
Quite unlike her siblings, Kendall Jenner seemed to be doing everything right in her relationship with Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker: basically, shutting up about it and enjoying their romance as privately as possible, given her family’s total domination of reality television.
But according to Entertainment Tonight, the pair has “hit a rough patch” from which there is no return. After Kourtney Kardashian’s third wedding to Travis Barker in Italy, a source “close to Jenner” says the two “started to feel like they weren’t aligned and realized they have very different lifestyles,” and they have gone their separate ways.
I, for one, am shocked. It all seemed so perfect. The pair started as friends. They went on a road trip together to Sedona in his Mercedes-Benz Maybach in 2020, the height of the pandemic, for “some much needed air”—still as “friends.” They made the romance official at some point after that, which led to Kendall wearing Devin’s Olympic gold medal on a boat on a lake somewhere looking extremely hot in a bikini. Super relatable all around.
When the two “cozied up” at Kourtney’s wedding in May, tabloids presumed it to be the “next step” in their very private relationship. But the tabloids were mistaken—possibly for the first time ever!—and now love is dead.
This will undoubtedly be devastating to many (though not Jezebel’s Kylie Cheung, who is openly infatuated with Booker). The thing about a “very private relationship”—to the extent that such a thing is ever possible with a Kar-Jenner—is that the void of details enables the rest of us to project our own assumptions and fantasies onto it. Kendall is a runway model; Devin is an NBA star. He drives fancy cars and loves dogs. She sits on the sidelines of his games looking impossibly gorgeous and cheers him on. And then they presumably go home and have the best sex humanly possible—I mean swinging from the rafters, 10 orgasms each—before drifting off to sleep, nose to nose. Meanwhile, the rest of us are just living our silly, stupid lives, cleaning our own kitchens and bathrooms, going to work every day, dealing with anxiety and body dysmorphia or whatever and either swiping fruitlessly on Bumble or violently shoving our partner in bed when their snores become intolerable.
The thing is, heartbreak comes for everyone. Relationships are hard and often don’t work out. We’re all doing the best we can. Both of these famous humans will be absolutely fine and are rich and hot as hell.
But they could also probably use a pint of ice cream and a hug right now. And to that end—Devin, you shouldn’t be alone tonight. | https://jezebel.com/love-is-dead-kendall-jenner-and-devin-booker-have-repo-1849097601 | 2022-06-23T05:31:26Z | https://jezebel.com/love-is-dead-kendall-jenner-and-devin-booker-have-repo-1849097601 | true | 1 |

ABUJA—THE Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said yesterday that the Federal Government has so far reimbursed state governments about N447 billion for expenses incurred on construction and rehabilitation of federal roads and bridges.
Mohammed, who disclosed this while briefing State House correspondents at the end of the Federal Executive Council, FEC, meeting presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari at the Council Chamber, Presidential Villa, Abuja, said the release was the first tranche of such reimbursement.
The minister announced that following the money already released to the affected states, the council in yesterday’s sitting approved N18 billion refund for Yobe State out of the N20 billion bill it submitted.
Mohammed gave a breakdown of the amounts of such reimbursement by some of the states, stressing that the reimbursement was for projects implemented before the coming of the present administration.
He said: “I think it’s important to say that, well it’s true that we’re just reporting this particular memo, which is the refund being sought by Yobe State government; Yobe State government is asking for the sum of N18,663,843,109 as reimbursement for five federal roads, which they rehabilitated or constructed.
“A committee was set up to inspect the claim, they were actually found to be true. They reviewed the N20 billion they asked for and certified N18 billion as refund due to Yobe State for undertaking the construction/rehabilitation of these federal roads on behalf of federal government.
“But this is not the first time. We have since 2015, made refunds to about 24 states. If my records are correct and I want to put on record here that but for the benevolence of this administration, many states would have sunk under.
“The first tranche of these reimbursements about N477 billion was refunded to many states: Edo got N8 billion; Lagos got N106 billion; Niger, N333 million; Ogun, N37 billion; Delta N56 billion; Ebonyi, N10 billion; Enugu N12 billion; Jigawa, N10 billion; Ekiti, N10 billion and this was the first tranche.
“Second tranche and the last tranche, I think if I remember, I think it’s Yobe and two other states that are supposed to be the next batch.” | https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/06/24-states-get-n477bn-refund-for-expenses-on-federal-road-projects-fg-2/ | 2022-06-23T05:34:28Z | https://www.vanguardngr.com/2022/06/24-states-get-n477bn-refund-for-expenses-on-federal-road-projects-fg-2/ | false | 2 |

Buzz Lightyear The Man Is Now A Toy Again, Thanks To Hot Toys' Lightyear Figure
When audiences were first introduced to Buzz Lightyear in "Toy Story," he was a toy spaceman based on the star of a hit sci-fi movie in-universe. "Lightyear" is that movie. If that's too much ridiculousness to process, just pretend that Buzz Lightyear is Han Solo and Andy got a Han Solo action figure for his birthday after seeing "Star Wars" and it became his favorite new movie. Does that make sense? Movie gods, I sure hope it does.
Of course, as "Lightyear" is a Disney movie ripe for merchandising, there's no way they weren't going to make toys based on "Lightyear" more than the traditional "Toy Story" version of Buzz Lightyear. He's got a different look! He has a different voice! He has fellow officers! He has an adorable robot cat we'd all give our lives to protect! There's so much more to the world of "Lightyear" than we knew, having only learned of the world through Andy's toy collection and the animated series "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command" that Disney has effectively buried from public consciousness so as to not screw with the new lore of the character. But just when you thought it was safe to wade back into the discourse waters of what "Lightyear" is or is not about, the toy makers at Hot Toys are ready to stir that pot right back up with a brand new Buzz Lightyear figure.
To be clear, we mean the one voiced by Chris Evans from "Lightyear," not the Tim Allen one from "Toy Story." Still with me? Good.
A dream for toy collectors, not for children's playing
Hot Toys didn't cut any corners on this elite figure, and they'd better not have considering the Space Ranger Alpha Buzz Lightyear figure goes for $315. Crafted to resemble the titular character as closely as possible, the figure boasts eyeballs that can roll independently, a screen-accurate recreation of the space ranger suit complete with weathering effects, a variety of Buzz's signature weapons including laser gun, blade, blaster cannon, and a pair of handcuffs, and a custom figure stand for ultimate posability.
For just $30 more, you can always opt for the deluxe edition of the figure which comes complete with Sox the robotic cat, Sox's computer, and the wing pack that made the original Buzz Lightyear toy so memorable and so impressive all those years ago. The figure is approximately 11.61 inches (29.5 cm) tall and painted by hand, making this an incredible display piece and not a toy.
I mean, unless you wanna risk ruining the paint job on a really expensive figure, but hey, you do you. | https://www.slashfilm.com/904533/buzz-lightyear-the-man-is-now-a-toy-again-thanks-to-hot-toys-lightyear-figure/ | 2022-06-23T05:44:49Z | https://www.slashfilm.com/904533/buzz-lightyear-the-man-is-now-a-toy-again-thanks-to-hot-toys-lightyear-figure/ | false | 1 |
Indian Ambassador to China Pradeep Kumar Rawat has met Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi ahead of Thursday’s virtual BRICS summit hosted by President Xi Jinping in which Prime Minister Narendra Modi is due to take part.This was Rawat’s first meeting with Wang after he took charge as India’s new envoy to Beijing in March.
The meeting, which took place on Wednesday, assumed significance as it came ahead of the 14th BRICS summit. The meeting is also significant as it took place amidst the chill in bilateral ties over the two-year military standoff in eastern Ladakh. As a result of military-level talks, the two sides completed the disengagement process last year on the north and south banks of the Pangong lake and in the Gogra area. India has been consistently maintaining that peace and tranquillity along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) are key for the overall development of the bilateral ties.
On Rawat’s meeting with Wang, a Chinese Foreign Ministry statement quoted Wang as saying that China and India’s common interests far outweigh their differences, adding that the two sides should support rather than undermine each other, strengthen cooperation rather than guard against each other, and enhance mutual trust rather than be suspicious of each other.
The Chinese foreign minister said the two sides should meet each other halfway to push bilateral relations back onto the track of stable and healthy development at an early date, jointly address various global challenges, and safeguard the common interests of China and India as well as the vast number of developing countries. He called on both sides to adhere to the important strategic consensus reached by the leaders of the two countries, insist on placing the border issue in a proper position within bilateral ties, and seek solutions through dialogue and consultation.
China and India should also give full play to their traditional advantages in people-to-people and cultural exchanges, continuously expand mutually beneficial cooperation, and work together to create a better future for mankind, the state-run Xinhua news agency quoted Wang as saying.China holds this year’s chair of the five-member bloc comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa.
On Wednesday, Xi and Modi along with other heads of the BRICS countries addressed the BRICS Business Forum. Wang visited India in March during which he held talks with External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and National Security Advisor Ajit Doval. | https://www.financialexpress.com/defence/indian-envoy-pradeep-kumar-rawat-meets-chinese-fm-wang-yi-ahead-of-brics-summit/2570148/ | 2022-06-23T05:45:53Z | https://www.financialexpress.com/defence/indian-envoy-pradeep-kumar-rawat-meets-chinese-fm-wang-yi-ahead-of-brics-summit/2570148/ | false | 7 |
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Jan. 6 committee will hear from former Justice Department officials who faced down a relentless pressure campaign from Donald Trump over the 2020 presidential election results while suppressing a bizarre challenge from within their own ranks.
The hearing Thursday will bring attention to a memorably turbulent stretch at the department as Trump in his final days in office sought to bend to his will a law enforcement agency that has long cherished its independence from the White House. The testimony is aimed at showing how Trump not only relied on outside advisers to press his election fraud claims, but also tried to leverage the powers of federal executive branch agencies.
The witnesses will include Jeffrey Rosen, who was acting attorney general during the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol. Three days earlier, Rosen was part of a tense Oval Office showdown in which Trump contemplated replacing him with a lower-level official, Jeffrey Clark, who wanted to champion Trump's claims of election fraud.
Two other former department officials, Rosen's top deputy, Richard Donoghue, and Steven Engel, are also scheduled to testify. Both warned Trump at the White House meeting that they'd resign, and that many of the department's lawyers would follow, if he replaced Rosen with Clark.
“You could have a situation here, within 24 hours, you have hundreds of people resigning from the Justice Department,” Donoghue has said he told Trump. “Is that good for anyone? Is it good for the department? Is it good for the country? Is it good for you. It's not.”
Only then did Trump relent. The night, and later his administration, ended with Rosen still in power.
The hearing is the fifth this month by the committee investigating the run-up to the insurrection at the Capitol, when Trump loyalists stormed the building as lawmakers were certifying the results of the election won by Joe Biden. Witnesses have included police officers attacked at the Capitol as well as lawyers, a television executive and local election officials who all resisted demands to alter results in Trump's favor.
The committee last week presented videotaped depositions of former Attorney General William Barr, who castigated Trump's fraud claims as “bull—,” “bogus” and “idiotic” and resigned after failing to convince the president of that.
Thursday's hearing will focus on what happened next as Rosen, Barr's top deputy, took over the department and found himself immediately besieged by Trump's demands for Justice Department action.
In one phone conversation, according to handwritten notes taken by Donoghue and made public by lawmakers last year, Trump directed to Rosen to “Just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the R. Congressmen."
Around that time, Trump was introduced by a Republican congressman, Rep. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania, to Clark, who'd joined the department in 2018 as its chief environmental lawyer and was later appointed to run its civil division. Clark was earlier subpoenaed by the committee to give a deposition but will not be among the witnesses Thursday.
Clark, according to statements from other Justice Department officials, met with Trump despite being ordered not to by bosses at the department and presented himself as eager to aid the president's efforts to challenge the election results. A report released last year by the Senate Judiciary Committee that painted Clark as a relentless advocate for Trump included a draft letter pushing Georgia officials to convene a special legislative session to reconsider the election results.
Clark wanted the letter sent, but superiors at the Justice Department refused.
The situation came to a head on Jan. 3, 2021, a Sunday, when Clark informed Rosen in a private meeting at the Justice Department that Trump wanted to replace him with Clark as acting attorney general. Rosen, according to the Senate report, responded that “there was no universe I could imagine in which that would ever happen" and that he would not accept being fired by a subordinate.
Rosen then contacted the White House to request a meeting. That night, Rosen, Donoghue and Engel, along with Clark, gathered with Trump and top White House lawyers for a contentious, hours-long Oval Office meeting about whether the president should follow through with his plans for a radical leadership change at the department.
According to testimony given by Rosen, Trump opened the meeting by saying, “One thing we know is you, Rosen, aren’t going to do anything to overturn the election.”
Donoghue and Engel made clear to Trump that they and large numbers of other Justice Department officials would resign if Trump fired Rosen. White House lawyers said the same. Pat Cipollone, then the White House counsel, at one point said the letter that Clark wanted to send was a “murder-suicide pact.”
“Steve Engel at one point said, ‘Jeff Clark will be leading a graveyard. And what are you going to get done with a graveyard,’ that there would be such an exodus of the leadership,” Donoghue told the Senate Judiciary Committee. “So it was very strongly worded to the president that that would happen.”
Donoghue also sought to dissuade Trump from believing that Clark had the legal background to do as the president wished since he was not a criminal prosecutor at the department.
“And he kind of retorted by saying, ‘Well, I’ve done a lot of very complicated appeals and civil litigation, environmental litigation, and things like that,’” Donoghue said. “And I said, ‘That’s right. You’re an environmental lawyer. How about you go back to your office, and we’ll call you when there’s an oil spill.’” | https://www.registercitizen.com/news/article/1-6-panel-to-hear-of-Trump-s-pressure-on-Justice-17259807.php | 2022-06-23T05:51:00Z | https://www.registercitizen.com/news/article/1-6-panel-to-hear-of-Trump-s-pressure-on-Justice-17259807.php | false | 54 |

*WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressional Black Caucus Chairwoman Joyce Beatty (OH-03) and the Congressional Black Caucus issued the following statement:
“This bipartisan legislation is the culmination of strategic efforts and leadership from the Congressional Black Caucus and underscores the historic nature of our efforts to stem the tide of gun violence in our communities.
There are many CBC Member-led provisions included and we accept this bipartisan, common-sense legislation to better protect America’s children and families, keep our schools safe and reduce the threat of violence across our country.
“There is still much work to be done and the CBC will continue fighting for more life-saving measures — like universal background checks, banning high-capacity magazines, and raising the age to buy assault weapons—which must also become law,” said Congressional Black Caucus Chairwoman Joyce Beatty.

The moment that some Israelis have been dreading and others happily anticipating finally arrived on Monday. Though the announcement by Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and Foreign Minister Yair Lapid of a call for the disbanding of the Knesset was virtually a foregone conclusion, it came as a bit of a surprise.
Earlier in the day, it was reported that Bennett had bought his teetering coalition an additional week. This was attributed to the fact that Likud Party and opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu was postponing a no-confidence motion for several days.
Still, the public response has been similar to that surrounding the death of someone who suffered a long and drawn-out illness; despite the inevitability of the demise, the end is slightly jolting. Nevertheless, nobody skipped a beat — certainly not the politicians or reporters scrambling to address the new reality — at the sound of the government’s last breath.
Judging by the polls, those who had hoped it would survive aren’t numerous, but they have begun to reiterate the rhetoric of the anti-Netanyahu camp. Sadly, some voters who experienced buyers’ remorse at having opted for Bennett in the first place — as he represented for them the uncompromising Zionist who would annex Judea and Samaria — are singing the same tune about Netanyahu.
If they allow their ideological purism to govern their ballots on Oct. 15, the ostensible date for the fifth Knesset election in three-and-a-half years, they are likely to find themselves back where they started. And it won’t serve their interests to have Likud unable to form a majority coalition.
The same goes for Likud supporters who considered it a waste of their time to vote at all, given the repeated impasse that led to four inconclusive rounds. Ditto for disgruntled Likudniks who don’t favor Netanyahu but say that there’s no candidate they consider a substitute.
One thing that Israelis across the spectrum seem to share, however, is embarrassment at the content of Bennett’s statement about why the coalition is no longer viable — as though it ever were destined to succeed with such an internally disparate makeup.
“We stand before you today at a difficult moment, but with the understanding that we made the right decision for Israel,” he began. “A year ago, we formed a government that many thought was impossible, in order to stop the terrible spiral in which Israel was caught.”
He got the first part right. What followed, on the other hand, was laughable.
“In Israel, a year ago, there was massive unemployment, a huge deficit, rioting in the streets and missiles on Jerusalem,” he went on, failing to mention the pandemic in this context. Oh, and a surge in terrorism spurred, among other things, by an internecine Palestinian Authority battle between Fatah and Hamas over which group is better equipped to demolish the Jewish state.
He then proceeded to point to the main impetus behind his “Zionist” move to forge a coalition with a mere seven seats: a government that was in “total paralysis.” Here he omitted the bit about the signing of the Abraham Accords, for example, in September 2020.
“Together, we got the country out of the pit,” he said. “We returned the values of fairness and reliability to center stage. Israel resumed being led.”
Here is where he highlighted how well it worked out. This raised a few eyebrows, considering the circumstances under which he was speaking: the flop of the kumbaya experiment.
A more substantial guffaw was elicited when he invoked the famous biblical story of King Solomon’s judgement.
“We chose to be the mother who safeguards her child’s life at great personal expense,” he said, before listing what he claimed to be his coalition’s outstanding accomplishments. These, according to the outgoing premier, included repairing the economy, making the south of the country safer, successfully fighting terrorism and conducting wonderful relations with the administration in Washington.
In the alternate universe that Bennett described, Lapid — the “alternate prime minister” replacing him until the establishment of the next government — is a perfect fit. Not so much for the Israeli populace living in the real world.
It’s a population whose justified fear is that the results of the upcoming election will not resolve the political deadlock that characterized the previous ones. The only way around it, other than an overhaul of the electoral system (which isn’t in the cards in the near future) is for all eligible citizens to cast a ballot. This means curbing the purism and joining, not hovering above, the fray.
There was a 67.4 percent voter turnout in March 2021. It is possible and necessary to raise that percentage considerably. We Israelis owe it to ourselves to aim for majority rule.

Nazem Kadri scored the winning goal to give the visiting Colorado Avalanche a 3-2 overtime victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Wednesday and put them one victory away from the Stanley Cup title.
Nathan MacKinnon and Andrew Cogliano also scored for the Avalanche, who lead the best-of-seven championship round 3-1 and will try to clinch the crown in Game 5 on Friday in Denver.
Colorado goaltender Darcy Kuemper made 37 saves, 16 of them in the first period, and assisted on the game-winning goal.
The Avalanche dominated overtime and were rewarded when Kadri converted at 12:02. Kadri, back in the lineup after missing the past four games following thumb surgery, lifted a shot from in close for his first-ever playoff overtime goal.
Teams that hold a 3-1 lead in the Stanley Cup Final have gone on to win the series 35 of 36 times. The 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs escaped a 3-0 hole in the finals to beat the Detroit Red Wings.
Antony Cirelli and Victor Hedman scored for the Lightning, while goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 35 shots in the back-and-forth affair.
Cirelli opened the scoring just 36 seconds into the clash. Erik Cernak’s shot hit Kuemper in the mask, and Cirelli pounced on the rebound for his third goal of the playoffs.
MacKinnon’s power-play goal tied the score 5:17 into the second period. Mikko Rantanen’s shot was stopped, but the puck ricocheted off MacKinnon’s skate and into the net for his 12th goal of the playoffs but first of the series.
Hedman restored the Lightning’s lead just past the midway point of the second period when he finished a coast-to-coast rush with a perfectly placed long backhand shot for his third goal of the playoffs.
Cogliano tied the score again three minutes into the third period when Nico Sturm’s shot ricocheted off his leg and into the goal for his third goal of the playoffs.
The Lightning may have sustained a key injury when Cernak left the game early in the second period after blocking a shot. He tried skating during a television timeout later in the period but quickly returned to the dressing room. He sat on the bench without taking a shift the rest of the game. | https://www.thehamdenjournal.com/sports/avalanche-top-lightning-in-ot-to-grab-3-1-stanley-cup-lead/233918/ | 2022-06-23T06:45:32Z | https://www.thehamdenjournal.com/sports/avalanche-top-lightning-in-ot-to-grab-3-1-stanley-cup-lead/233918/ | false | 4 |
Cornwall mum of three develops app for seaside trippers
- Published
A mother of three has developed an app to give beachgoers all the information they need about going to the seaside.
Jo Murray, from Cornwall, said My Coast would give information on everything from wave and weather conditions to toilets and parking.
Ms Murray has worked with South West Water (SWW), the RNLI, the Met Office and Plymouth and Exeter universities to get the app to a trial stage.
Pilot schemes will be carried out at three beaches in Cornwall, in August.
Ms Murray, from Ladock near Truro, said: "Every time I wanted to take my three children to explore beaches around Cornwall, it ended up as a bit of a disaster.
"Either the tide was in, we would find that the beach wasn't dog friendly or there were not the facilities that we wanted available.
"My Coast was born with the aim to take the luck out of enjoying a safe and amazing day on the coast and prevent failing miserably, as I had been."
Ms Murray moved to Cornwall in 2018 following the sudden death of her husband Ian in Shepton Mallet, Somerset.
The pilot scheme, which has been funded by SWW and the European Development Fund, will be available in August for Perranporth, Gyllyngvase and Porthtowan beaches.
Guy Doble, from SWW, said My Coast had "the potential to become a one stop shop for visitors and residents" looking for information about Cornwall's beaches.
My Coast is hoping to raise £50,000 through crowdfunding, to enable coverage of more beaches across Devon and Cornwall.

ITV This Morning’s highest earner has been revealed - as Philip Schofield raked in a cool £1 million in a year. His production company has as much as £1,686,171, according to reports.
Schofe enjoyed a £990,000 rise from the previous year, and is on at least £600k for presenting the show, according to reports. Holly Willoughby's firm made a whopping £1.37 million to February this year.
But it's Ruth Langsford who is the real winner, with £2 million made for her company. The Sun reports an insider as saying: “Ruth has had the last laugh here. She’s proven the talk wrong that she and Eamonn were pale and stale. Her pay from ITV might not be as high as Holly and Phil’s but her earning power outside of the show is vast."

Eamonn quit This Morning for GB News last year. He made his debut on January 3 this year, with Ruth instead staying with ITV and enjoying a role on Loose Women.
The source continued: "She has her gig on shopping channel QVC which is huge, plus her work on Loose Women." And they added: “Now she is free to make even more shows for other channels.
"Plus she is always asked to sign up for commercial work and has appeared in adverts for everything from blood circulation boosters to bingo games."

Celtic target Vinicius Souza has put fans on alert with a surprise social media move. The Brazilian midfielder, contracted to Belgian side Lommel and part-owned by the City Football Group, is among a number of potential targets for the Premiership champions.
Ange Postecoglou appears keen to add options in the middle of the park and Souza is attracting significant attention. Reports on Wednesday claimed Fenerbahce have made an offer for the 23-year-old, who has also been linked with Bologna and Ajax. But Celtic would hope their working relationship with the City Group, the organisation behind Manchester City, could work in their favour in any potential deal. And it appears there's something afoot with the player, judging by his latest social media move.
Souza has updated his Instagram profile to read "@mancity athlete". Furthermore, the latest post on his story appears to show him enjoying the sun in Manchester city centre on Wednesday. Lommel are part of the City Group but last season Souza was loaned upwards to KV Mechelen in the Jupiler Pro League, Belgium's top-flight.
It's clear the City Group have a plan for the South American rising star and Celtic fans are looking on with interest as to what this latest update might mean, with the hope it could involve a move to Parkhead to add to what's already been an exciting summer.
The club have previously secured loan deals for the likes of Patrick Roberts and Jason Denayer while they were contracted to Man City and have been been linked with a number of others down the years.
Meanwhile, Celtic are expected to seal a deal for Lanus left-back Alexandro Bernabei in the coming days to add further depth in the left-back area. Postecoglou bolstered his goalkeeping options with the addition of Ben Siegrist earlier in the week and it's expected a permanent deal for Jota will be finalised in the coming days.
He's set to follow Cameron Carter-Vickers after he agreed a move from Tottenham having been a standout on-loan last season.

Moscow Says Russia-US Relations on Brink of Breakup
Story Code : 1000653
"A note of protest was passed to the American ambassador yesterday. It said that the current developments put these relations on the brink of a breakup. There is nothing here beyond what was said there: that the question is about a policy that the US will choose," Ryabkov said when asked whether Russia plans to recall its ambassador from Washington.
In order to preserve relations with Russia, the United States should stop making threats to Moscow and should stop supplying Ukraine with weapons, Ryabkov said.
"The question as to what steps need to be taken to preserve relations is certainly right. They simply need to stop in their escalation, both verbal escalation and in terms of stuffing the Kyiv region with weapons. They need to stop producing threats to Russia," he told reporters in Moscow after being asked by Interfax whether Russia understands what Washington can do to keep relations.
"Meanwhile, if they do manage to somehow positively influence Kyiv, something that I not just doubt, but I am confident that it will not happen, unfortunately, then, I think, there will be a certain prospect for normalizing relations," he said.
"For now, we see a downward tendency in relations with our country through the fault of the US," he said.
"We regret it, but it does not impact our determination to move toward accomplishing the goals of the special military operation and to adapt to the circumstances related to the American sanctions and the sanctions imposed by European satellites of the US at its behest," Ryabkov added. | https://www.islamtimes.org/en/news/1000653/moscow-says-russia-us-relations-on-brink-of-breakup | 2022-06-23T07:17:29Z | https://www.islamtimes.org/en/news/1000653/moscow-says-russia-us-relations-on-brink-of-breakup | false | 2 |

Sameer (name changed) could not understand why his co-worker and longtime friend failed to grasp the concept of gender. “We got into a heated argument one day, when he attempted to simplify gender based on nothing but biological fabric. The conversation turned particularly problematic when he declared that gender is whatever is assigned to a person at birth, and that, it is this identity they ought to live with throughout.”

Interestingly, the World Health Organization (WHO) defines gender as “characteristics of women, men, girls and boys that are socially constructed”. It adds that this can include “norms, behaviours and roles associated with being a woman, man, girl or boy, as well as relationships with each other”, and that since it is a “social construct, gender varies from society to society and can change over time”.
The WHO states that gender-based discrimination “intersects with other factors of discrimination, such as ethnicity, socioeconomic status, disability, age, geographic location, gender identity and sexual orientation”.
And so, while there has been a lot of awareness lately, the world still remains largely ignorant about not only gender identities, but the LGBTQI+ community as a whole.
Sameer’s exchange with his friend recapitulates the fact that while as a country we have made progress, the LGBTQI+ community still remains in the shadows in many cultures and societies, thereby obstructing the growth of individuals, who want to exist with pride.
As such, it is important to have a discourse around it and that can happen with certain awareness about issues pertaining to the community — including that of identity.
This Pride Month, therefore, we have put together a lexicon of words — sourced exclusively from the Humsafar Trust, an NGO that provides counselling, advocacy and healthcare to the LGBTQI+ community — that one ought to learn so they can educate others and keep the conversation going.
While it is not a comprehensive list, it can help to widen your Pride vocab. Read on.
1. Asexual: A person who experiences little-to-no sexual attraction towards another person. Asexuality is a spectrum and may not or may have varied intensities of sexual attractions.

HONOLULU (KHON2) – We all make use of our island roadways, but when was the last time you gave attention to their given names?
Did you know you could learn more about Hawaii’s history if you did?
Check out more news from around Hawaii
Our weekly “Aloha Authentic” segment highlights various streets across the islands so we can dig into those names, and in turn, learn something new.
This week, we bring attention to a difficult time in the Hawaiian Kingdom.
In the ahupuaʻa of Keahuolū, which lies in the moku of Kona on the island of Hawaiʻi, stands a roadway that carries the name of Hawaii’s last queen.
We are talking about Kamakaʻeha Avenue.
Lydia Kamakaʻeha ascended the throne of the Hawaiian Kingdom as Queen Liliʻuokalani following the death of her brother, King Kalākaua.
But it was during a time when the kingdom’s constitution, known as the Bayonet Constitution, took away many of the sovereign’s powers and placed it in the hands of American and European businessmen.
Since Liliʻuokalani became Queen, efforts continued to remove the sovereign from power and take control of the kingdom.
In 1893, only 2 years after becoming the ruling monarch, the Queen was illegally overthrown by said foreigners with the help of the United States of America.
Hawaiʻi then turned into a Provisional Government.
In 1895, because of a revolutionary attempt by Hawaiian royalists to restore the Queen to power, Queen Liliʻuokalani was arrested and forced to abdicate the throne considering potential bloodshed.
After being charged with “misprision of treason,” the Queen was convicted and sentenced to five years in prison at hard labor.
Later, that was reduced to imprisonment in an upstairs room of ʻIolani Palace where the Queen remained for nearly 8 months.
She passed in 1917, but not after establishing the Liliʻuokalani Trust benefiting orphan and destitute children.

Gunge, flan-flinging and... Kate Bush?
It suddenly a big year for Kate Bush , with all the attention she’s been getting for Running Up That Hill ’s appearance in Stranger Things leading to her first-ever top 10 hit – 37 years after its original release.
Her first big year had been 1978, when her debut single Wuthering Heights launched her career at light speed. (Perhaps remarkably, it had made her the first female to reach No.1 in the UK with a self-written song.) She might have been a bit out-there, but she knew it and used it, and in a moment when the embers of the first punk wave were still glowing, she was a breath of fresh air.
At that time in Britain, the Saturday morning kids’ TV shows were a premium target for record labels with singles to sell, and none more so than the anarchic ITV network’s offering, TISWAS . Hosted by Chris Tarrant and Sally James, it was a million miles from the middle-class offerings families were used to from the establishment BBC.
Kids watched the Phantom Flan Flinger appearing to throw custard pies at audience and guests alike, while you could expect a bucket of water over your head or a tank of gunge descending from the ceiling at any minute, Lenny Henry ate condensed milk sandwiches, Spit the Dog spat at people and over-enthusiastic renditions of the Dying Fly dance sent viewers to hospital.
Here's a hint:
It sounds like a disaster in the making, especially since Bush, a shy and retiring type, limited her uninhibited extrovert behaviour to music videos and stage shows. But the contrast was powerful: appearing alongside James in 1979, sitting on the floor quietly, she presents an elegance and demurity – and, ever the professional, James matches that style.
The result is unique and strangely intimate. No flans, water or gunge (it’s to be wondered what kind of discussion went on before her appearance); instead, a genuine hint at who Bush really is, sensitively brought out by a simple but clever line of questioning, and some kind of mutual understanding.
Bear in mind, James is an established presenter, 29 years old at the time, while Bush has only recently turned 20. Stranger things indeed. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2641374745350/gunge-flan-flinging-and-kate-bush | 2022-06-23T07:26:31Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2641374745350/gunge-flan-flinging-and-kate-bush | false | 2 |

Telangana continued to witness a spike in daily Covid-19 count while authorities have cautioned people to follow all the precautions to check the spread.
The state reported 434 cases in the 24-hour period ending Wednesday evening. A day earlier, the count was 403.
The daily tally has almost doubled in the last 3-4 days. Last week, the state had been recording 200-250 cases.
According to the health officials, the state is recording more than 400 cases for the first time after February 2022.
Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) continues to report maximum number of cases. On Wednesday, the state capital recorded 292 cases, up from 240 the previous day. In neighbouring Medchal Malkajgiri district, the number of infections jumped from 11 to 28. However, in the other neighbouring district Rangareddy, the daily count dropped from 103 to 71.
According to the daily bulletin issued by the health department, out of 33 districts, 15 have zero cases while four districts reported a case each. Only two districts recorded the cases in double digits.
The authorities conducted 27,754 tests during the 24-hour period. While the daily count is rising, the state is not recording any death.
According to the director of public health and family welfare, the active cases in the stand stands at 2,680. A total of 129 people recovered from Covid during the 24-hour period. The recovery rate now stands at 99.15 per cent.

PRESS RELEASE
As summer officially begins and people gather for holiday celebrations, the American Red Cross reminds communities that patients are counting now on the generosity of blood and platelet donors, especially around the Fourth of July.
The Red Cross sees about a 21% decline in blood and platelet donations during holiday weeks, including Independence Day. When blood donations drop, so does the blood supply, making it extremely challenging to ensure blood is available when hospitals need it.
By scheduling and keeping appointments in July, donors can help provide for those in immediate need of lifesaving care. To schedule an appointment to donate, download the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit RedCrossBlood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).
As a thank-you for helping, all those who come to give June 30-July 10 will receive an exclusive Red Cross recycled cotton tote bag, while supplies last.

‘Top Gun: Maverick’ director Joseph Kosinski again had a plane in the air, only this time Chris Hemsworth was at the wheel.
They were shooting ‘Spiderhead,’ a science-fiction prison thriller based on a George Saunders story, along the coast of Australia. The film is set almost entirely in a remote concrete fortress jutting out over the sea, but it opens with the arrival of a seaplane that was flown by Hemsworth with Kosinski lying in the back. The slow-moving, prop-engine plan was a far cry from the F-18 jets of Kosinski’s box-office smash.
“It was initially going to be the plane Tom Cruise did his work in,” Hemsworth jokes.
‘Spiderhead,’ which is out now in Netflix, is in many ways the opposite of ‘Top Gun: Maverick’. It’s a talky, interior film made during the pandemic that will be streaming in homes, not filling IMAX screens. But chief among its quirky pleasures is Hemsworth’s leading performance as the researcher who presides as a benevolent, ‘80s-yacht-rock-dancing tyrant over the Spiderhead Penitentiary and Research Center, cheerfully conducting experiments in which he drugs prisoners to chemically raise or lower their moods, appetites and verbal acuity.
For a performer who has only occasionally flashed his comic ability (hosting ‘Saturday Night Live,’ as the secretary in ‘Ghostbusters’), Hemsworth’s deft balancing act in ‘Spiderhead’ showcases a range well beyond the MCU. Hemsworth, who recently began shooting George Miller’s ‘Furiosa,’ returns as Thor again in next month’s ‘Thor: Love and Thunder,’ a franchise that has gradually loosened to adapt to its star’s comic agility. And there are more action movies (‘Extraction 2’) on the way.
But without a fight scene or a special effect, ‘Spiderhead’ may convey Hemsworth’s powers better than anything before it.
“This was one of the most enjoyable experiences I’ve had,” Hemsworth said in a recent interview by video-conference from Australia. “Normally, these films, you string them out over three or four months. In this instance, due to my schedule, due to COVID restrictions and so on, it was compressed into a four-week period. Initially, we didn’t think it was possible.”
Aside from pandemic factors, ‘Spiderhead’ is uniquely improbable considering its source material. Few have ever read a Saunders story and thought it would transfer seamlessly into a movie. But screenwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick developed the author’s 2010 story ‘Escape From Spiderhead,’ a farcical yet moving first-person account of a prisoner (played by Miles Teller in the film) undergoing lab tests. They greatly expanded the part played by Hemsworth, Dr Steve Abnesti, who enthusiastically runs the facility with few rules and mysterious intentions. He’s a little like the nicest Bond villain you’ve ever met.
Kosinski sent the script to Hemsworth hoping he’d respond to the role.
“In his performances, I always saw glimpses of a wide range of availabilities that maybe sometimes gets masked by the action films and his leading-man looks,” says Kosinski.
“There’s a precision to his physicality that really lends itself to this role,” the director adds. “He has this ability that I’ve seen in Tom [Cruise], as well, to really understand the frame and the lens and where to be in it. That’s something that not everybody has. He’s just really aware of the medium and how to use it effectively.”
In ‘Spiderhead,’ Hemsworth uses the exactitude and charisma he normally leans on in more conventional leading-man performances for darker, manipulative purposes.
“There was sort of a nervous energy underneath it, bubbling away, even in the stiller moments,” Hemsworth says. “I was trying to tap into that feeling when you’re about to break and you either laugh or cry, but you’re right on the tightrope. Whatever that feeling is, I wanted the character to be in it and hopefully give a sense of: Which way is he going to turn next? What’s going to be the next reaction?”
‘Spiderhead’ was shot largely in sequence on a sound stage, and Hemsworth seems visibly liberated by the lack of constraints — costume or otherwise — of the production.
“I’m so thankful for the films I’ve played but they didn’t give me the range and opportunity to explore in this way,” Hemsworth says.
The 38-year-old Hemsworth drew partly from CEOs and technocrats who exude a hyper-intelligent, obsessive focus, but who might, in their certainty of technology’s potential, lack empathy. Still, the character’s high-functioning narcissism isn’t entirely alien to Hemsworth, either.
“There was a cheekiness to the character that reminded me of myself in school, allowing my thoughts to run ahead of one another, not really caring about what I’m doing or what I’m saying,” he says. “That enthusiasm and that excitement is me at my most inventive and creative. Catch me on a day when I’m exhausted and not in that space, then that’s not the character. But that part of me I wanted to be prominent.”
‘Spiderhead’ arrives between bigger blockbusters by both its director and star, on the heels of ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ — a movie that has played saviour to movie theatres — and the cusp of ‘Thor: Love and Thunder.’ Both are likely to rank among the biggest ticket sellers of the year. Kosinski, speaking as the ‘Maverick’ grosses continued to roll in, is still getting his head around the film’s success and, as he says, “just how many people are responding to a movie that was shot in a very traditional way, live-action, in camera.”
“This is the type of movie I grew up on,” Kosinski says.
But for both Hemsworth and Kosinski, the variation between projects, and the ability to go off and make a strange, hard-to-describe sci-fi film for a mass audience is part of the particular charm of ‘Spiderhead.’ Kosinski last week set up his next project, a Formula One racing film starring Brad Pitt and Apple TV+, with plans for a wide exclusive theatrical release before streaming.
“It’s a very interesting hybrid. It kind of spans these two films that I just did,” says Kosinski. “Everyone’s trying to figure out: What does the future of cinema look like? We thought this was an interesting model to try.”
For Hemsworth, whose ‘Extraction’ ranks as one of Netflix’s most-watched films, ‘Spiderhead’ was a deviation that only encouraged him when he readjusted back to bigger movies.
“Both service the other,” Hemsworth says. “Any time I venture out and do something different and then return back to, say, Thor, I find I have a different appreciation for the character and also a different opinion of it.”

Minister for Economy, Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum
Fiji last borrowed from the Chinese government in 2007, and this debt has been repaid.
Minister for Economy, Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum highlighted this while speaking to students at the Fiji National University Derrick Campus in Samabula.
A student asked Sayed-Khaiyum if he could guarantee that Fiji will be economically secure in the coming years, given its debt portfolio, and if Fiji has pending loans in China.
The student from Nakali village in Tailevu says it scares him to think about the economic crisis now facing Sri Lanka as a result of its huge debt to China.
“I think we are in the same scenario now because we normally take loans from these Chinese banks. So the question is, if you can assure us the system that is going on regarding the debt, like in 10 to 30-years’ time, if you are not in government with the same mindset, same team that is controlling the economy, we will not be like those people there who are looking for food to eat because they lent the money in 2010, but now they are suffering.”
Sayed-Khaiyum in response, says certain politicians continue to mislead Fijians regarding Fiji’s debt status.
He says Fiji borrowed from China in 2007 to construct the Nadarivatu Dam, and that this was paid back in 2012.
Sayed-Khaiyum says if Fiji was in a bad position, its partners would not provide budget support.
“The figures are here. All these figures that I have are all variably. They are not done by me. I don’t sit in a room and go, “Hihihi, I’m going to calculate this.” “These are third party validations, from the World Bank and IMF, so if you look at our foreign reserves, Sri Lanka foreign reserves are down here at finish kapoot.”
Sayed-Khaiyum says it is the role of government to ensure there is no starvation.
The Minister adds Fiji’s economy is expected to grow by 11.3 percent this year. | https://www.fbcnews.com.fj/news/minister-explains-fijis-debt-status/ | 2022-06-23T08:00:13Z | https://www.fbcnews.com.fj/news/minister-explains-fijis-debt-status/ | true | 2 |

'Completely different question!' Peston shuts down Thornberry bid to bypass RMT probe
LABOUR'S Emily Thornberry was grilled in an intense probe over the Labour party's stance on the RTM strike after leader Sir Keir Starmer ordered frontbenchers to stay off picket lines.
Rail strikes: Thornberry grilled on Labour's 'muddled' stance
ITV Peston host Robert Peston put Labour's Shadow Attorney General Emily Thornberry under intense scrutiny over her party's stance on RMT rail strikes and her leader Sir Keir Starmer's call on frontbenchers to stay off picket lines. At least three Labour frontbenchers defied the order and joined railway strikers in the biggest strike ever seen in the last 30 years. The party’s conflicting positions have divided the party on whether to join the strike and their strategy over the RMT strike.
Against that backdrop, Robert Peston asked Emily Thornberry: "Why therefore is Labour so muddled about whether or not to support workers and join picket lines or not?"
Emily Thornberry squirmed, putting the blame on Boris Johnson’s Government: "We’re not muddled at all. It’s perfectly clear. Our position is simply this, that this is a situation that needs to have the government involved. They need to take a strategic look at this."
Mr Peston then exclaimed: "You’re also on a completely different question!"
"I’m not answering a different question," Ms Thornberry shouted, "Let me finish what I’m going to say. So, just as we don’t expect them to pick a side, we expect them to be at the table and trying to sort this out and getting both sides involved."
"In many ways, it’s similar to the position of the leadership of the Labour party. If we were in government, we would not be picking a side. We’d be trying to bring both sides together."
Ms Thonberry continued: "And we would be taking a strategic look at what is the future of our railways. How are we going to ensure that we can afford to give our teachers enough money to build a living whilst also paying energy bills."
Tensions among public-sector professions have been mounting as other professions are on the brink of joining railway strikes.
Teachers and NHS workers could soon take industrial action and join railway strikers to demand a pay closer to inflation. If teachers fail to get a pay rise, the National Education Union threatened, they will hold a vote on whether to take to the streets.

If the NHS and teachers execute their threat and go ahead with strikes, almost public sectors will be striking together for the first time since 1926 under the same demand for higher wages amid 40-year-high rising inflation and skyrocketing energy and food prices.
In the same way the Labour party experienced the infamous Winter of Discontent in 1978 and 1979, there are fears the Conservative party could face a Summer of Discontent, as Boris Johnson’s Government has so far failed to slow down inflation and respond to public-sector workers’ demands.
Ms Peston continued his probe, asking: "Isn’t that on individual Labour MPs’ conscience as to whether they join picket lines? Keir Starmer doesn’t want frontbenchers to join picket lines. Should it be a conscience issue? Because you’re basically saying, don’t pick a side as a party.
"That slightly implies, that if he’s got it wrong, you should all be allowed to follow your conscience."

Ms Thornberry repeated: "No, what we’re saying is that we are not injecting ourselves into the middle of this dispute. This is a dispute between railway workers, the railway companies, and the Government.
"And we’re not in the middle of this. What we’re trying to do is we’re trying to stop the government from sailing on the edge of it and throwing gasoline into the fire."
Transport Secretary Grant Shapps has dismissed calls for Government intervention, saying unions should be holding talks with employers.
RMT General Secretary Mick Lynch has suggested strikes could be repeated for months until a deal is struck.

According to D.C. police officials, this weekend’s Moechella, a regular concert-turned-protest launched in 2019, experienced a shooting that broke out at the intersection of 14th and U Streets NW.
A 15-year-old was killed and three people injured — including a D.C. police officer — and took place only hours after a 16-year-old girl was found shot and unresponsive in an apartment in Southeast D.C.
Officials say that authorities broke up a number of incidents in the crowd. They started clearing the event around 8:30 p.m. because it had spilled out of the intersection — which was blocked off by city vehicles and into the surrounding streets. At that point another incident flared up at the intersection, resulting in the shooting.
Video shared on social media showed hundreds of people fleeing from the scene as the gunshots broke out.
Police later identified the teenager as Chase Poole of Northwest.
D.C. Police Chief Robert Contee said the officer and two other victims had been transported to area hospitals and were expected to survive. A gun was recovered from one of the victims, but the police have not yet found the people or the gun responsible for the fatal shooting.
Moechella, according to Chief Contee, was “unpermitted,” even though the concerts have happened in the past and was advertised as a “peaceful demonstration” to coincide with the Juneteenth celebration. It was also co-sponsored by the D.C. Housing Finance Agency, an independent government agency.
The police are considering punitive action against the organizers for the violence that broke out. “We will certainly want to make sure people are held accountable when they hold unpermitted events in our city. This is one of the reasons why we don’t want unpermitted events taking place in our city. Unfortunately, things like this can happen when you have the wrong mix of people or people who introduce firearms into a situation,” he said.
Unpermitted events like protests are a regular occurrence in D.C., and police regularly deploy officers to assist. Contee said at least 100 officers were at the scene during Moechella, which started at 4 p.m. and was set to end at 8 p.m.
In a statement posted on Instagram, Moechella organizers decried the violent end to the event.
“As we continue to cultivate a platform to uplift the culture of Washington, D.C., we don’t condone violence of any sort,” it said. “Moechella is a symbol of Black culture in D.C. and is built on the foundation of peace. Please keep this in mind moving forward as occurrences of such will not be tolerated and will result in us being stripped of the opportunity to activate our platform.”
According to NBC Washington, Mayor Muriel Bowser expressed anger over the shooting. “We have a child who was killed today at an event that did not have any proper planning for the number of people who were here and with guns involved. And with our police managing a crowd, on-site, somebody used a gun. And a child is dead,” she said.
On Twitter, Councilmember Robert White (D-At Large), who attended the event earlier in the day and is running against Bowser, expressed sadness over the deadly incident.
“Moechella has brought so many people joy since the original demonstration celebrating D.C. culture in 2019. It is devastating to see an event like this end in tragedy. Each day, our fear grows and our residents are becoming afraid to participate in a community with neighbors,” he wrote. “Ending gun violence requires urgency behind a comprehensive and coordinated approach between government and communities. We have to rise to meet this challenge together and do it urgently.”
On Instagram, Councilmember Trayon White (D-Ward 8), who is also running for mayor, shared his own disappointment. “We are supposed to be commemorating the freedom of slaves on June 19, 1865, but some of our minds are still enslaved,” he wrote. “We have to do better; time is running out.” | https://www.essence.com/news/moechella-juneteenth-death/ | 2022-06-23T08:21:56Z | https://www.essence.com/news/moechella-juneteenth-death/ | false | 1 |

For too long, the Evil Queen, Wicked Stepmother, and Dark Fairy have been pushed into the shadows while the princesses such as Snow White, Cinderella, and Briar Rose get their happily-ever-afters. So, the scoundrels set out to change things.
With the help of the sinister Rumpelstiltskin, the mischief-makers use their magic to travel back in time, planning to change the destinies of each of their princesses and send them down a new path that doesn’t end so happily. But as the villains set their plan in motion, a classic cast of fairy-tale extras — including the Big Bad Wolf, Hansel and Gretel, Goldilocks, and Robin Hood — unwittingly change the princesses’ stories and the course of the villains’ plans.
Tickets are $8 and are available at the box office or online at milamcommunitytheater@com.

‘I let my teammates down’: The silver lining to Lolesio’s missed drop goal attempt
By Tom Decent
Brumbies and Wallabies playmaker Noah Lolesio says he’s determined to move on from the agony of missing a late drop goal in the Super Rugby Pacific semi-final, which he admits took him “three or four days” to get over.
With the Brumbies trailing the Blues by one point in the final minute at Eden Park, halfback Ryan Lonergan passed to Lolesio, who was 41 metres out from the posts.
Lolesio backed himself but the kick was brilliantly charged down by Blues prop Ofa Tuungafasi. Within seconds, the Blues had wrapped up the match.
“Rugby is a pretty fast-paced game and you’ve got to make decisions very quickly,” Lolesio told reporters from Wallabies camp on the Sunshine Coast ahead of the first Test against England next Saturday.
“[I was planning] for the drop-kick but I probably got the ball earlier [than I] expected. I didn’t realise anyone was in front of me. I back myself. I went for the drop goal and it got charged down, which sucked.”
Had Lolesio held on to the ball and the Brumbies marched up the field off the back of few more phases, it could have been a different story.
“I’ve definitely learned from it,” Lolesio said. “If I’m being completely honest, it took me three to four days to get over [it]. I know it was such a big part of the game and I really felt like I let my teammates down, which is not what you want to do. I move on from that. The biggest thing I’ve learned in rugby is you’ve got to have a short-term memory when stuff like that happens.”
Brumbies teammate Nic White jumped to Lolesio’s defence, applauding the young No.10 for taking the gamble.
“In big moments like that, you want people like Noah wanting the ball,” said White, who is favourite to start at halfback for the Wallabies. “That was the biggest thing. You could see he wanted it. The last thing you want is someone going into that shell and be scared of those big moments. I thought it was a real positive. If it goes an inch higher and goes over the middle, the big fella is probably asking for another zero [on his next contract].”
The big question: was the kick going over?
“Quade [Cooper] asked me if I hit it sweet and if it was going over,” Lolesio said. “I was like, ‘oh, yeah, surely’. I guess we’ll never know.”
Lolesio is in a three-way battle for the Wallabies’ No.10 jersey with Cooper and James O’Connor but is the underdog to make Australia’s XV, despite starting all three Tests against France this time last year.
“Quade and Rabs are both awesome players and we all have different strengths and weaknesses,” Lolesio said. “I’m just putting my head down and doing the work.”
Meanwhile, White has launched a charm offensive on England coach Eddie Jones, saying the former Wallabies boss is high on his list of blokes he’d love to go to dinner with.
Last year, White labelled Jones the “king of mind games” and said he’d love to pick his brain over a beer. Now White has dinner on his mind.
“If there’s one guy I definitely won’t be getting in a battle with, it’s Eddie Jones,” White said. “When they ask you who you’d love to have dinner with, he pops to mind straight away. I’d love to pick his brain. He’s obviously a mastermind.”

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Tennessee education officials have awarded $27 million in grants for five community organizations to start tutoring programs in the 2022-2023 school year.
The state Department of Education says the Tennessee Accelerating Literacy and Learning Corps Community Partner Grant will help provide up to 18,000 Tennessee students in grades 1 through 8 with free tutoring services for English language arts and math.
Of the recipients, the Niswonger Foundation will receive $9 million, while $4.5 million apiece will go to Literacy Mid-South, United Way of Greater Knoxville, United Way of Greater Nashville and United Way of Greater Chattanooga.
The program is among the changes passed during a January 2021 special legislative session called by Gov.

OpenAP will release the first of several planned capabilities for production use at the start of Broadcast Year 2023.
The OpenAP Data Hub will be the central destination for cross-publisher and cross-platform campaign data and analysis. The solution will enable access to the OpenID spine and TV data appended to the spine, including OpenAP demographic audiences, custom audiences and OpenID exposure data.
"Enabling data-rich, cross-platform advertising that is relevant to how consumers are viewing video today requires the resolution of viewership data across multiple environments. The future of advertising must be built on top of powerful clean room technology to perform at the massive scale of TV. Together with Snowflake, we are designing an ecosystem for TV advertising that is open and interoperable, all while protecting the privacy of viewer data," said OpenAP CEO David Levy.
OpenAP Data Hub will adopt a develop-and-release cadence to build out the clean room solution and capabilities needed by core constituents, including TV publishers, cross-platform measurement providers, agencies, brands, and audience and attribution data providers, who are looking to run targeted advertising campaigns that preserve a high standard of consumer data privacy and governance. The phase one release scheduled for October of 2022 will enable the seamless sharing of proprietary digital exposure data resolved to OpenIDs with authorized advertisers and advertiser systems, with NBCUniversal, Paramount, Fox and Warner Brothers Discovery the first to participate.
The new clean room solution for the television industry will be built on Snowflake and will include bespoke environments for publishers, data and measurement companies as well as marketers. Pre-built native Snowflake functions will make it easier and faster to upload and distribute data, facilitating more effective cross-publisher and cross-platform planning, targeting and measurement in privacy-safe environments.
"Our partnership with OpenAP will empower publishers and advertisers with the cross-platform capability they need to execute and measure privacy-based, targeted advertising campaigns," said Bill Stratton, Global Head of Media, Entertainment and Advertising Vertical, Snowflake. "Our work together integrating the OpenAP Data Hub with the Media Data Cloud will set a new standard for cross platform advertising and collaboration in this new age of data and privacy."
"Cross-screen viewership has meant that campaign data must be seamlessly matched across multiple devices and doing this at scale for advertisers requires data sets to be matched between multiple parties fast and securely. By creating the OpenAP Data Hub as the TV clean room solution, we are designing a future for advertising that will power relevant brand messages wherever consumers are viewing video without ever having to move or copy data for identity resolution and enrichment," said Dan Callahan, SVP, data strategy and sales innovation at FOX; Krishan Bhatia, president & chief business officer at NBCUniversal; John Halley, chief operating officer, advertising revenue at Paramount; and Jim Keller, EVP, digital ad sales and advanced advertising at Warner Brothers Discovery, Inc. in a joint statement.

Kovega: Maragoli Custom Where Bereaved Family Members Shave Hair to Appease Dead Kin's Spirit
- In the Maragoli sub-tribe of the Luhya community found in Western Kenya, bereaved family members shave their hair immediately after the burial of their kin
- It is believed shaving hair after a relative's death symbolised the end of mourning and the beginning of a new chapter for the bereaved
- In circumstances where a family fails or ignored this custom, they are bound to witness unprecedented disasters
Death is the last rite of passage that every human being must go through to complete their life journey on earth.
Communities across the world have a special way of honouring their deceased members immediately after their death and later after burial.
Shaving hair
For instance, in Kenya, in the Maragoli sub-tribe of the Luhya community found in Western Kenya, bereaved family members shave their hair immediately after the burial of their kin as a way of honouring them and relinquishing ties with the spirits of the dead.

Nathan Sirinji from Gamande village, Hamisi sub-county in Vihiga, explained that shaving hair after a relative's death symbolised the end of mourning and the beginning of a new chapter for the bereaved.
“Although it takes time for one to completely wipe out memories of their gone kin, it is not advisable to mourn past the burial day.
We, therefore, shave our heads to liberate the soul of our fallen member to go in peace since they now exist in another world away from us,” said Sirinji .
The man said that as the cut hair grows, so does grass grow on the deceased’s grave which signifies the beginning of a new road to a new life.
“He takes a new angle and his family takes another step. Things must set back to normal no matter how long it may take. New hair is a symbol of moving on,” he elaborated.
Persistent mourning
Mzee Sirinji noted that repeated mourning of the death of a family member or even friend had consequences and that is why such customs were invoked.
He said too much mourning was irrelevant and could even negatively impact members perceived to have overdone the mourning of their fallen kinsmen.
“Our people say a dead man is like a sharp sword, and this means the dead’s spirit is very dangerous to the living thus entertaining it could be deadly,” the elder added.
He further elaborated that in circumstances where families mourn too much, the dead’s spirit does not disappear but instead hoovers around to torment them, especially at night, therefore, denying them peaceful sleep.
“In some cases, the bereaved family members experience nightmares linked to their immediate fallen kin because they mourned beyond the recommended duration.
“This is a sign of the dead’s displeasure in their misconduct. It is a message from the dead saying they had blocked their way by wanting them back to life,” Sirinji expounded.
Effects of not shaving
In circumstances where a family fails or ignored this custom, they are bound to witness unprecedented disasters that would make them restless, according to the native Maragoli elder.
Linah Mmbone from Gisambai agreed with Sirinji and further explained that nightmares and ailments are some of the disasters that can befall family members should they fail to shave in honour of their deceased relatives' death.
“It is a must-do rite and failure to honour it may result into shortcomings that may disorient lives of many,” she noted.
Presiding over the ceremony
Just like other customs, hair shaving has procedures and is presided over by elders for proper execution according to the cultural book.
The presiding elders gather family members around a fireplace [chotero] that had been lit near the gravesite to keep mourners warm during vigils ahead of the burial.
Razors are brought in and handed to the clan’s elder who will then commission the exercise by trimming some hair from one of the bereaved member’s head before allowing commissioned barbers to clear the rest of the hair from the heads of immediate relatives of the deceased.
After the exercise is over, the elder collects the cut hair and used razors, throws them in a latrine and cleanses the place.
The bereaved family members will then gather in the deceased’s house for a cup of tea and later feast on ugali served with chicken.
Who not to honour
However, not everyone is accorded this respect after their death.
Individuals who die after taking their own lives are not accorded this honour, according to the elders.
They are hurriedly buried, their graves flattened and forgotten forever.
They said this was a way of reducing chances of future similar deaths in the family, thus the deceased in such cases were hurriedly buried and other special rites held.
With time, the culture has been given a backseat courtesy of community members embracing Christianity whose last important rite is the burial of the deceased and no more further ceremonies linked to the deceased are conducted.

Mineral exploration company Greenvale Mining has lodged three applications for three prospective geothermal areas in the Millungera Basin of North West Queensland.
Situated next to the North West Mineral Province, the Millungera Basin is considered one of the most highly geologically prospective areas in Australia.

Greenvale says the new applications areas would benefit from the Copperstring project. a 1100km open access transmission line to connect Mount Isa to east coast power infrastructure in Townsville.
Greenvale has also applied for the corresponding mineral tenements over the new proposed project areas and will assess the geothermal brines for a full suite of metals, including as a potential source of lithium.
The Millungera Basin was identified after deep seismic surveys in 2006 and 2007. The Basin encompasses the Mount Isa Inlier and is generally characterized by high heat flow.
Greenvale has applied for areas covering the majority of the Basin and from the existing available geological information, a potential geothermal resource could be just 2km below surface.
Greenvale Mining Managing Director, Neil Biddle, said this was part of their geothermal strategy and opened up opportunity to explore for geothermal energy sources on the doorstep of the North-West Mineral Province.
"The cost and availability of power is a huge issue in Australia right now, and nowhere more than North-West Queensland," Mr Biddle said.
"The significance of the opportunity is further enhanced by the $1.7 billion CopperString 2.0 Project, a massive investment in power infrastructure which further leverages the huge opportunity for our shareholders."
