Corbin strikes out 12, Nationals rally to beat Pirates 3-1
WASHINGTON (AP) — Patrick Corbin matched a career high with 12 strikeouts, Yadiel Hernandez delivered a go-ahead two-run double, and the Washington Nationals rallied in the eighth inning for the second straight game, beating the Pittsburgh Pirates 3-1 Tuesday night.
Corbin (4-10) allowed one run in eight innings for Washington, which has won three in a row and six of eight.
"I know I can still do it," the 32-year-old Corbin said. "My stuff is still there. Sometimes, and I don't know the reason, things haven't clicked. I thought today when I did make a couple mistakes, they either fouled it off or maybe just took it."
Pittsburgh has lost five in a row by a combined seven runs.
"We're one play away, and right now the people we're playing are making that play and we have to create our own breaks," said Pirates manager Derek Shelton, whose team is 0 for 12 with runners in scoring position in the last two games.
The Nationals also sputtered with runners in scoring position much of the game, going hitless in their first eight attempts before Hernandez pinch hit against former Washington prospect Wil Crowe (3-5) with two on and two outs in the eighth. Hernandez hit a shot over Diego Castillo in right, scoring both runners.
"I threw (44) pitches and I think I threw one bad one that I'd want to take back, and it's that one," Crowe said.
Washington was 2 for 22 with runners in scoring position in the first two games of the series and won both. The other hit was Maikel Franco's two-run homer in the eighth in Monday's 3-2 win.
Even without the late rally, it was an encouraging night for the Nationals solely because of Corbin's outing. The veteran yielded Castillo's solo homer in the sixth, but was otherwise far sharper than he's been for much of the last three seasons. He allowed five hits and walked two.
Corbin, who hadn't posted a double-digit strikeout game since 2019, struck out the side in the eighth to finish his night. It was the third time he struck out 12 in a regular-season game and the first since June 22, 2018, at Pittsburgh. Corbin also struck out 12 in Game 4 of the 2019 NLCS against St. Louis.
The left-hander, who signed a six-year, $140 million deal with Washington before the 2019 season, lowered his ERA more than a half-run from 6.60 to 6.06.
"I've been feeling really good, and the results (have been) some ups and downs," Corbin said. "I thought today I was able to stay on the attack and able to use both sides of the plate. The slider was good."
Tanner Rainey worked the ninth for his 11th save in 14 attempts.
The Nationals pushed across a run in the first on Nelson Cruz's groundout. It was all they would get against Pittsburgh starter José Quintana, who allowed four hits and struck out six in six innings in the first start of his 11-year career in Washington.
TRAINER'S ROOM
Pirates: Pittsburgh recalled LHP Aaron Fletcher from Triple-A Indianapolis and optioned RHP Miguel Yajure to Indianapolis. … RHP David Bednar (lower back) was not available. "We hope it's not an IL situation," Shelton said. "We think he should be back in the coming days." … RHP Zach Thompson (forearm nerve inflammation) threw live batting practice. Shelton said Thompson is on track to be activated Sunday.
Nationals: SS Luis García was out of the lineup for the first time since his June 1 callup, but entered as a pinch hitter in the eighth. "He's been playing well and he's been playing a lot," manager Dave Martinez said. "You have to remember, he played every day in Triple-A before he got here." … LHP Josh Rogers (shoulder impingement) will begin his rehabilitation assignment Thursday at Triple-A Rochester. … Martinez said RHP Victor Arano (knee inflammation) felt good a day after a light bullpen session.
UP NEXT
Pirates: RHP Mitch Keller (2-5, 4.77 ERA), who is 1-0 with a 2.96 ERA in five starts since rejoining the rotation May 31, gets the nod in the series finale.
Nationals: RHP Paolo Espino (0-1, 2.21) has thrown 8 2/3 scoreless innings and posted a 0.46 WHIP in three career appearances against Pittsburgh.

JOHNSTOWN, Pa. – The Cambria County District Attorney’s Office filed new drug charges against four Philadelphia men on Tuesday.
Nigel Lomax, 27; Gary Love, 25; Kahseem Jackson, 32; and Fred Howard, 32, all face multiple felonies stemming from raids of properties on McCabe Street in Johnstown’s Prospect section and on Adams Street in downtown Johnstown.
Authorities allegedly seized 49.9 grams of suspected crack cocaine and 192.6 grams of suspected powder cocaine at the Adams Street property. There allegedly were 93.3 grams of suspected crack cocaine, 22.5 grams of suspected methamphetamine, 9.4 grams of suspected bulk heroin/fentanyl and 22.6 grams of suspected heroin/fentanyl at the McCabe Street property.
Original charges were filed against Love, Lomax and Jackson after search warrants were executed on April 20. Those were withdrawn before new charges were filed against all four on Tuesday in accordance with a grand jury presentment.
Love, Lomax and Jackson remain in custody at Cambria County Prison after failing to post $750,000 percentage bond.
There is an outstanding arrest warrant for Howard. Anybody with information about his whereabouts is asked to contact the Cambria County Detective Bureau at 814-472-1680.
Multiple law enforcement agencies assisted with the process.
“An extensive and in-depth investigation into illegal drug activity in Cambria County ... paid dividends for our community today with charges being filed against multiple individuals,” Cambria County District Attorney Gregory Neugebauer said in a released statement. “The charges include allegations that various people worked in tandem to distribute illegal narcotics in our neighborhoods.
“A well-coordinated effort between multiple agencies enabled law enforcement to take over $37,000.00 street level approximate value of suspected drugs off of our streets. The relationship between local, state, and federal entities in our area remains strong, and we are all committed to continuing to fight together. We all should thank our dedicated men and women of law enforcement for their tireless efforts.” | https://www.tribdem.com/news/drug-charges-filed-against-four-philadelphia-men-after-johnstown-raids/article_a650e6e2-f740-11ec-be2a-a789526fbf65.html | 2022-06-29T05:36:57Z | https://www.tribdem.com/news/drug-charges-filed-against-four-philadelphia-men-after-johnstown-raids/article_a650e6e2-f740-11ec-be2a-a789526fbf65.html | false | 2 |
This weekend's Independence Day festivities in greater Prince William will kick off Friday with a "Patriots Day" celebration at Catharpin Regional Park, which will include a fireworks display.
While some associate "Patriots Day" with the April holiday in New England that commemorates the beginning of the American Revolutionary War and coincides with the Boston Marathon, Supervisor Pete Candland is putting his own spin on the holiday to celebrate it on the Independence Day weekend with fireworks and family fun honoring the county's public safety personnel.
“During this time of year, when we are celebrating what makes this country so great, Supervisor Candland wanted to host an event for the public to thank those who put their life on the line every day to make our community safer,” Brooke Stark, Candland’s chief of staff, said in an email.
Stark said Candland decided to hold the event after hearing from constituents who “wanted to make this event a celebration to include games, activities and fireworks,” Stark said.
In addition to the fireworks display at dusk, attendees can expect games and activities, including a "mega obstacle course," rock climbing wall, train rides, face-painting and a performance by comedy magician and puppeteer, Flabbergast, Stark said.
Catharpin Regional Park is one of the county’s newest parks, opened just one year ago. It is located in rural northwestern Prince William near Sudley Road and Pageland Lane. The park features baseball and softball fields, soccer and multiuse grass fields, a half-mile asphalt walking path and an ADA-compliant destination playground.
Candland mentioned his intent to hold a event such as "Patriots Day" at Catharpin Park during his remarks at the ribbon-cutting ceremony in June 2021. He said he hoped there would be future events at the park, which he considers a “destination facility for the folks of Prince William County.”
While "Patriots Day" is “a special event hosted by Candland’s office, the county parks and recreation staff will work the event, and the supervisor’s office will pay for it,” said Amir Wenrich, assistant director of marketing for Prince William County’s Parks, Recreation and Tourism Department.
Stark noted that Candland’s office is “still working on purchasing items for the event and securing public safety personnel to help run the event.”
The cost of the event is estimated between $30,000 and $40,000, which will be covered by Candland's Gainesville District office funds, Stark said.
“The costs of the event will be paid for through the Gainesville District office funds (both this fiscal year and next) and through donations from the community,” she said.
Candland hopes “this becomes an annual event which moves from one magisterial district to another,” Stark said.

New York's 1st legal marijuana crop sprouts under the sun
CLIFTON PARK, N.Y. (AP) — New York's recreational marijuana market is beginning to sprout, literally, with thin-leafed plants stretching toward the sun in farms around the state.
In a novel move, New York gave 203 hemp growers first shot at cultivating marijuana destined for legal sales, which could start by the end of the year. Big indoor growers are expected to join later.
But for now, the field is clear for growers like Frank Popolizio of Homestead Farms and Ranch, where a small crew north of Albany earlier this month dug out shallow holes for seedlings before packing them in by hand.
“It is an opportunity, there’s obviously going to be a demand for it,” Popolizio said during a break in planting. “And hopefully it benefits the farmers. Been a long time since there’s been a real cash crop.”
Popolizio is tending to a half-acre plot that will grow upward of a 1,000 plants surrounded by a tall electrified fence. He and other “conditional cultivator” license holders can grow up to an acre of marijuana outdoors. They can grow all or some of their crop in greenhouses, though in smaller areas, and use limited lighting.
The license is good for two years, and holders will be able to distribute cannabis flower products to retail dispensaries.
The head start for hemp growers is an unusual way to gear up a marijuana market. Heather Trela, a marijuana policy expert at the Rockefeller Institute of Government in Albany, said states typically rely initially on their existing medical growers. New Jersey, for instance, launched sales this year with cannabis grown indoors and sold by companies involved in the medical marijuana market.
But New York’s move is a potential lifeline for farmers growing their crop for CDB during a slump in prices. They have a chance to make much more money growing what is essentially the same plant, but with higher levels of THC — the compound that makes people feel high. Popolizio sees it as his “next logical step.”
A lifelong athlete, Popolizio seems like an unlikely cannabis farmer. He has never puffed a joint or chewed an edible. But the amateur wrestling coach and promoter added cannabis to the mix at Homestead along with beef, turkeys and chickens. And he’s begun to appreciate the potential benefits of cannabis for adults.
“I’m open minded and I’ve come to understand that there is value,” he said.
The inclusion of smaller farmers also helps the state meet its mandate to create an economically and demographically diverse marijuana industry. Similarly, the first licenses to sell recreational marijuana in New York will go to those with marijuana-related convictions or their relatives.
“There’s a market that we’re building for small players, for big players, for medium-sized players, for family businesses, for big corporations as well,” said Chris Alexander, executive director of state’s Office of Cannabis Management.
The first-wave growers this year are projected to produce a couple of hundred thousand pounds of product. That would be a fraction of the projected demand in New York, which could eventually be well over a million pounds annually. But state regulators say their launch plan is to balance supply and demand, expanding cultivation as more dispensaries open.
“We do think it will be sufficient to provide that initial supply to our our dispensary locations that we get up and running,” Alexander said.
Statewide, the large majority of cannabis grown outdoors and in greenhouses is expected to be processed for products like edibles and vapes, with the rest to be sold as smokable flower, said Allan Gandelman, president of the New York Cannabis Growers and Processors Association.
Cannabis grown outdoors can often have lower THC than plants grown indoors under lights. That makes it less desirable to some consumers, though others appreciate its nuanced characteristics, comparing it to garden-grown tomatoes or a complex glass of wine.
“It’s called sun-grown marijuana,” said grower Moke Mokotoff of Claverack Creek Farm in the Hudson Valley. “And a lot of aficionados just like the way it smokes better.”
Growing weed under the sun with sustainable practices also requires far less energy than electricity-hungry indoor grows. Bridge West Consulting chief executive officer Ari Hoffnung said that could translate into lower prices.
Aside from pests and bad weather, a big challenge to growing weed outdoors is the threat of thievery. Homestead’s half acre is not only surrounded by an electrified fence, but he has motion detectors and other security features.
About an hour south, Mokotoff is taking similar security precautions and plans to step them up just before harvest, when plants' THC content will be at its highest.
“We plan to have people sleeping in the field,” Mokotoff said.
The turbo boost in production is expected to come from indoor growers, in particular the companies that already produce medical marijuana. With regulations still pending, Alexander expects more licenses to be offered early next year.
Major industry players are already poised to take advantage of an expanded market.
Chicago-based Green Thumb Industries is building a growing and manufacturing facility that will cover more than 4.5 acres (18,210 square meters) at the site of a former prison north of New York City. The Warwick facility is expected to be operating next year, producing a wide array of Green Thumb products.
The company sells its brands in 15 states and owns a company providing medical cannabis in New York.
“New Yorkers have been watching the industry flourish from the sidelines,” CEO Ben Kovler said, “and have high expectations for the forthcoming adult-use market.” | https://news.yahoo.com/yorks-1st-legal-marijuana-crop-051000940.html | 2022-06-29T05:54:06Z | https://news.yahoo.com/yorks-1st-legal-marijuana-crop-051000940.html | false | 47 |

Don’t have time to read the full review? Go directly to the Conclusions section to know what I liked the most and the least about the realme GT NEO 3T.
A few days ago, realme introduced the GT NEO 3 series, consisting of: GT NEO 3 150W, GT NEO 3 80W, GT NEO 3T, and GT NEO 3T Dragon Ball Z Edition .
The realme GT NEO 3T features a 6.6″ 120Hz AMOLED screen, Snapdragon 870 5G processor, 8GB RAM, 128/256GB storage, wide-angle rear camera (64MP, f/1.8) + wide-angle ( 8MP, f/2.3) + macro (8MP, f/2.4), wide-angle front camera (16MP, f/2.5) and 5,000 mAh battery with 80W fast charge.
The realme GT NEO 3T arrives in Spain with an official price of €429.99 (8/128GB) and €469.99 (8/256GB), but you can find good deals on Amazon .
Next, I bring you my in-depth analysis after trying it for a few weeks.

design and construction
The realme GT NEO 3T series has a racing-inspired design, and for the realme GT NEO 3T, the company has adapted the checkered flag elements in its Dash Yellow and Drifting White color variants .
The same does not happen with the Shadow Black variant , which is precisely the one I have tried, since it has a sober dark gray finish on the back. Fortunately, fingerprints are not too marked on its surface.
The phone’s chassis is made of plastic , so it doesn’t feel as premium to the touch and to the eye as other aluminum-built smartphones. The same degree of shock resistance cannot be expected either.
The back, also made of plastic, houses the cameras and the flash on a rectangular module that protrudes slightly from the surface. Since the module is located in a corner, the phone dances slightly when pressing on the screen when it is placed on a flat surface.
The bezels surrounding the screen are narrow and symmetrical, although the bottom bezel (commonly known as “the chin”) is slightly thicker than the rest.
Its screen-to-body ratio is 93% according to the company, but 86% according to GSM Arena ♂️ .
The company doesn’t refer to any glass protection in the spec sheet, but it does appear on some sites that it incorporates Gorilla Glass 5 protection on the screen. This means that it has some protection against bumps and scratches.
realme GT NEO 3T is 8.65mm thick, but the back is slightly curved on the sides, making it appear thinner than it really is. It weighs 195 grams, so it’s not overly heavy by today’s standards.
The phone has an X-axis linear motor that can be seen in all four directions, providing a pleasant 3D vibration sensation.
Next, we are going to review the different elements that we find on the sides of the phone.
On the right side we find the power button, which has a good feeling to the touch.
On the left side we find two volume buttons.
The upper part of the phone is free of any element.
The bottom of the phone has a USB-C connector, the speaker and the tray for two nanoSIM cards.
Realme has not provided the phone with water protection , although it would be rare to find this protection on smartphones in this price range.
Screen
realme GT NEO 3T has a large 6.6″ AMOLED E4 screen with a 20:9 elongated ratio. The screen resolution is Full HD + (2,400 x 1,080 pixels), which implies a high pixel density of 398 dpi.
In case you’re wondering what “E4” means in the name of the screen, it refers to Samsung’s latest generation of AMOLED panels. These panels offer a slightly higher maximum brightness and, above all, lower power consumption compared to the previous generation E3.
The 120 Hz refresh rate translates into a smoother viewing experience, especially when moving around the interface or scrolling in applications such as the web browser, Twitter, Instagram or the photo gallery.
A higher refresh rate also implies a higher battery consumption. Luckily, the realme offers three operating modes: normal (60 Hz), high (120 Hz), and automatic selection.
High Rate (120 Hz) and Auto modes are adaptive. This means that content is normally displayed at 120Hz but is reduced to 60Hz if the image remains static for several seconds or when playing certain content such as videos (60Hz).
At this point, I don’t know what the difference is between choosing high rate mode or auto selection.
Some smartphones are more advanced and can reduce the refresh rate to 10 Hz (or even less) if, for example, you are viewing a static image, but in the price segment we are in, realme GT NEO 3T more than complies.
The panel’s sub-pixel array is of the PenTile type , as is usual for OLED panels. This means that the sub-pixels are arranged in a diamond shape with more green sub-pixels than red or blue. Therefore, the effective resolution of the panel is lower than the nominal resolution when the screen displays blue or red colors.
The LCD screens that other phones have have RGB matrices, where the sub-pixels are placed one after the other, in red-green-blue (RGB) rows, so the announced resolution applies equally to the sub-pixels of each colour.
According to the company, the screen covers 100% of the sRGB and Display P3 color spaces . If you’re not familiar with color spaces, sRGB (Rec. 709) is the standard for Android (and the computing world in general), while Display P3 space offers a wider range of colors and is used in the film industry.
There is an even wider color space called Rec. 2020 , which covers 76 percent of the spectrum visible to the human eye.
No current panel is capable of displaying this last full color space, instead typically sticking to around 60 percent.
realme GT NEO 3T offers two screen calibration modes: Vivid, Natural and Pro .
The Vivid color mode is activated by default and displays somewhat over-saturated colors, since it activates the DCI P3 color space. Many users prefer vivid colors over realistic colors, so it’s no coincidence that this is the default mode.
Natural color mode displays more true-to-life colors, making it best suited for situations where color fidelity matters: photo and video editing, clothing shopping, and more. In both modes, we can adjust the color temperature to our liking.
Finally, the Pro color mode allows you to choose between a Cinematic mode, which is the DCI P3 display mode, and a Brilliant mode that uses a wider color gamut to display even more vivid colors.
To analyze the quality of the display, I have carried out various tests with the professional software CalMAN Ultimate and an X-Rite i1Display Pro colorimeter .
As I have mentioned, by default the Intense mode is active , which points to the DCI P3 color gamut (it covers 95% of this color space according to my measurements), so the colors can be seen as oversaturated when using standard apps, since that these normally use the sRGB space.
This mode has an important advantage when using the phone in broad daylight since, in the sun, the colors lose their strength.
In Vivid mode, the average error in color fidelity relative to the DCI P3 gamut is good , 2.9 dE (below 4 dE is considered excellent and above 9 is considered unacceptable), and the maximum error turns out to be 7.2 AD
The color temperature is 7,259ºK, well above the reference level of 6,500ºK, so a bluish tint can be seen in apps with a white background, such as the browser.

Natural mode is intended to more closely reflect the sRGB gamut, which is commonly used in the smartphone and computer industry.
This is the mode to choose if you’re looking for maximum color fidelity in app and game content according to how the developer designed it — although colors are perceived as duller than with Vivid mode.
With sRGB mode active, the screen covers around 99% of the sRGB gamut. The average error in color fidelity is excellent, only 1.3 dE and the maximum error turns out to be 2.4 dE. The color temperature, 6,500ºK, is simply perfect.

Results with Natural screen mode
The maximum brightness with the brightness control in manual mode is 468 nits according to my measurements. This brightness value has been measured with 100% of the screen illuminated (known as APL 100%).
In auto brightness mode, when in strong light like the sun, the brightness increases to a maximum of 766 nits . realme speaks of a maximum brightness of 1,300 nits, but does not specify with what percentage of the illuminated screen it has achieved that mark.
In the following graph, the maximum brightness is reflected with 100% of the illuminated screen, which is how this parameter is usually measured. Compared to other smartphones (albeit more expensive), the maximum brightness of realme GT NEO 3T is good , although it is far from the flagships.
Viewing angles are wide, although brightness is reduced when viewing the screen from an angle.
This panel is not compatible with HDR content , so you cannot enjoy high dynamic range videos on streaming services like YouTube or Netflix.
In the Display and Brightness settings we find an option called Visual comfort mode , which activates a blue light filter to reduce eye fatigue by limiting the amount of blue light emitted by the screen. This mode can be activated manually, at certain times, or from sunset to sunrise, making it possible to control the intensity of the effect.
Always On Display functionality is also present, so when the phone is not in use the display shows useful information such as the date, time, battery level and notification icons.
always on display
realme has also added a couple of features related to video enhancement: video image refiner, which improves the definition of low-quality videos, and video color enhancer , which expands the color gamut of SDR recordings to HDR for a better visual experience. In both cases, if these functionalities are activated, the battery consumption increases.
Another interesting feature is the possibility to artificially increase video frames from 30 FPS (or less) to 60 or 120 FPS using MEMC. To make use of this functionality, you need to enable the Video Motion Enhancement option.
MEMC (or Motion Estimation Compensation) is an interpolation technique that inserts frames into videos to make them look smoother. Most movies and TV shows are recorded at 24 or 30 FPS, but with MEMC, they can be played back at higher FPS.
An HDR video brightness mode is also present , which increases the brightness of the screen when playing HDR videos at the cost of increasing battery consumption and heating up the phone.
Performance
realme GT NEO 3T arrives with the upper-middle-range processor Snapdragon 870 5G , which was announced in January 2021 as a chip halfway between the Snapdragon 865+, flagship of 2020, and the Snapdragon 888, the most powerful of 2021.
Info: This is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 5G chip
The Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 5G is a chip manufactured on a 7nm process. It integrates a “Prime” core that reaches 3.2 GHz, three high-performance ARM Cortex-A77 cores up to 2.42 GHz and four low-power ARM Cortex-A55 cores that reach 1.8 GHz
Compared to the older, similarly featured Snapdragon 865+, the Prime Core runs 100 MHz faster and the GPU clocks slightly faster. Thus, the Snapdragon 870 is slightly faster than the older Snapdragon 865 and 865 Plus and falls behind the high-end Snapdragon 888.
The mobile platform integrates a Qualcomm X55 5G modem with support for Sub-5 and mmWave and global 5G bands with a speed of up to 7.5 GBit/s (download).
The integrated GPU is still the Adreno 650 and offers a slightly higher clock speed of 670 MHz.
The integrated Hexagon 698 DSP delivers KI performance of up to 15 TOPS (vs. 7 TOPS on the 855) and still uses a mix of CPU, GPU, HVX, and Tensor cores. The Spectra 480’s ISP has also not changed. The integrated memory controller supports LPDDR5 with up to 2,750 MHz and LPDDR4X with 2,133 MHz.
The phone arrives with 8 GB of LPDDR4x RAM . It is not a very high amount in these times, but it should be enough for most users who are interested in this phone. It’s also not the fastest type of RAM, although we didn’t expect LPDDR5 in a smartphone in this price range.
The phone features DRE — Dynamic RAM Expansion — technology, thanks to which part of the internal storage can be used as virtual RAM. It is possible to select 2, 3 or 5 GB of additional space.
Access to this functionality is a bit hidden since you have to go to Settings > Device information > RAM . Although I have had it active, I cannot say if the use of this functionality has made any difference, since its operation is invisible.
The phone has 128 or 256 GB of storage, which cannot be stored via micro-SD. The storage is of the UFS 3.1 type, which is up to 3 times faster than UFS 3.0 and consumes less power.
Next, we are going to see the results of the realme GT NEO 3T in various benchmarks , which will give us an idea of the power of this terminal compared to other smartphones.
In the AnTuTu v9 benchmark , it has achieved a result of 653,532 points , a score typical of its chip.
In the Geekbench 5 benchmark focused on processor performance, it has achieved 989/2,603 points in the single/multi-core tests, which are good results.
In the PCMark 3.0 general performance test that measures performance when performing everyday tasks, it has obtained a score of 13,197 points , which is quite a high value.
On the storage side, the phone performs well in AndroBench tests for read and write speeds.
The realme GT NEO 3T features a steel vapor chamber in addition to an 8-layer structure consisting of a graphene sheet, another vapor chamber, thermal gel, copper foil, gel, silicon film + copper foil and another graphene sheet. realme says that it is the largest cooling surface in a device of the brand with 4,129 mm².
In the CPU Throttling test that measures the drop in CPU performance after 15 minutes of sustained load, performance has dropped by 18% over that period. This means that the performance when running very demanding apps is hardly affected after long periods of use.
Next, we are going to see the results in various graphic tests to check the expected performance in games.
In the GFXBench test with traditional APIs, the phone has achieved high results.
In GFXBench tests based on modern low-level, high-efficiency APIs (Metal/OpenGL and Vulkan), it also achieves good results.
In the new 3DMark Wild Life Unlimited test , the phone has achieved a result in the low range.
To check the graphics performance on a day-to-day basis, I have tested several demanding 3D games — Real Racing 3, Asphalt 9 and Call of Duty Mobile .
Using GameBench software , I have been able to measure various performance parameters on these games in actual play.
Do you know GameBench Pro? GameBench Pro is the industry’s leading tool for measuring game performance on Android and iOS smartphones. If you want to know more, you can visit their website .
All three games get a stable rate near 60 FPS in Asphalt 9 and Call of Duty , and 71 FPS in Real Racing 3, with peaks up to 120 FPS.
(*) Game quality settings:
Asphalt 9: Graphics quality set to “default”
Real Racing 3: Graphics quality default
Call of Duty Mobile: Graphics quality “medium” and frames per second at “full” speed.
As expected, realme GT NEO 3T has performed well in performance tests , although it clearly falls short of other flagships that cost more money.
In general, the phone moves smoothly and I have not experienced any signs of lag during the time I have tested the phone.
On the connectivity side , it supports Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, and USB Type-C 2.0. The USB-C port is OTG compatible, so we can connect a USB key or hard drive to access its storage from the phone. It also has NFC.
The phone is compatible with 5G networks . The SIM compartment offers space for two nano-SIM cards, so you can make use of Dual SIM functionality. Now, it is not compatible with eSIM.
biometric security
realme has incorporated an integrated fingerprint reader under the screen . In my experience, it is quick to unlock the phone.
To unlock the phone, we need to see the illuminated fingerprint logo at the bottom of the screen. Although it is normally off, just pick up the phone so that it lights up and we can place our finger to start unlocking.
Fingerprint recognition occurs by placing your finger on the screen without pressing. During the reading of the fingerprint, an animation is shown on the screen that we can customize by choosing between eight possibilities.
Fingerprint recognition is reliable as long as we place our finger in the correct area. Fortunately, the fingerprint recognition area is quite wide, so it is not necessary to hit the exact spot with your finger. Now, in my opinion, the fingerprint reader is located too low and it is not comfortable to reach it with your finger.
realme incorporates a feature called Quick Launch that allows you to open apps during the unlock process if you keep your finger on the fingerprint sensor until the icons appear. Without lifting your finger, you can slide it to an icon and release it to launch the corresponding function or app.
realme has also incorporated its facial recognition system , which allows us to unlock the phone simply by using our face. Face identification takes place very quickly, allowing us to access the smartphone without having to do anything except look at the phone.
The phone offers an option to illuminate the screen in order to cast light on our face so that recognition can occur even in the dark. It also includes choosing whether we want to stay on the lock screen or go directly to the desktop when the recognition is complete.
Now, we must bear in mind that facial recognition is simply 2D, so it is not as secure as the 3D facial recognition that other devices incorporate and could be fooled by a photo or video. In this regard, realme has added a control that forces your eyes to be open for the phone to unlock.
For this reason, facial recognition is not available for certain sensitive actions such as banking operations or confirming mobile payments.
realme allows you to individually choose whether you want to use face unlock to unlock the device, access password-protected apps, or access the safe.
Drums
The realme GT NEO 3T battery has a capacity of 5,000 mAh , which is more than enough for its 6.6″ screen and its hardware.
According to the company, this battery provides 29 hours of phone calls, 26 hours of video playback, and 88 hours of music playback.
To check the autonomy, I have carried out the battery test of the well-known PCMark test: Work 3.0.
Info: How we carry out autonomy tests
Given the importance of the screen in battery consumption, it is important to calibrate the screens with a colorimeter (or a similar instrument) at the same absolute level of brightness (it is not valid to set it to 50%) if you want to obtain comparable autonomy results. between devices.
Otherwise, the results may be greatly affected by the brightness level of each smartphone’s screen and are therefore not comparable. I mention this here because not all analyzes take this into account, and in this test, absurd values are sometimes seen.
In the case of PCMark: Work 3.0, the test itself indicates that the test must be performed with the screen calibrated at 200 nits for the results to be comparable. This is how we carry out the autonomy tests on smartphones.
PCMark Work 3.0 tests the autonomy of the terminal when performing a mixture of daily and demanding tasks, since the test simulates browsing web pages, writing texts and inserting images, applying filters to photographs, editing videos and data manipulation.
In testing, I’ve gotten an impressive 13 hours and 43 minutes with the screen refresh rate set to Auto. When setting the screen to high frequency (120 Hz), the autonomy is 13 hours and 45 minutes, and when setting it to normal frequency (60 Hz) it increases to 14 hours and 12 minutes.
On a day-to-day basis, the autonomy of the phone is very good and you should have no problem holding it for a day and a half or even more, if you don’t play regularly.
In the Battery section, we find a Save energy button that proposes actions to reduce battery consumption. In my case, it has suggested me to disable some battery consuming apps and disable GPS.
It also offers a power saving mode that optionally reduces screen brightness, changes the screen auto-off time to 15 seconds, disables background sync, and reduces the screen refresh rate.
It is possible to indicate that the energy saving mode is deactivated when the battery exceeds 90% charge. It is also possible to set the power saving mode to activate automatically when a certain battery level is reached.
Another option is super battery saving mode which reduces system performance and only allows you to run a limited number of applications simultaneously.
realme offers a setting called optimize battery usage that automatically optimizes apps that are draining the battery in the background. Another feature called Quick App Freeze automatically freezes inactive apps so they don’t drain battery power and you can’t send or receive messages or read phone information.
We also find the optimized standby functionality with three options: ultra standby mode (with the screen off, some apps are closed in the background to reduce battery consumption and, in fact, consumption is reduced even more if it is inactive), balanced mode (consumes less battery and reduces notifications when you sleep) and off .
realme GT NEO 3T features 80W Dart fast charging and unlike other smartphones, the company has included a fast charger in the box so you can quickly charge the battery.
As you can see in the graph below, the loading time is very short. The entire charging process takes 38 minutes , so it’s very fast. The charging process is fairly linear, with 50% being achieved in around 15 minutes.
Finally, realme has incorporated the optimized overnight charging. To reduce battery aging, the phone memorizes the daily charging routine so you can control the charging speed at night to prevent overcharging.
Interface and functionalities
realme GT NEO 3T runs Android 12 , and on top of the operating system, realme has incorporated its own realme UI 3.0 customization layer.
With realme UI 3.0, the company has tried to achieve a more expressive design, a better organized item layout, and a smoother interface experience.
For starters, the icons have been revamped thanks to a new 3D design . The outline adds weight, and a semi-transparent technique is used for a more modern design to show through. Thus, the design of the icons is more colorful and three-dimensional. Compared to realme UI 2.0, a wider color palette has been incorporated to suit the taste of young people.
realme UI 3.0
realmeUI 3.0 features a layout that provides a greater sense of space throughout the site . The size of the title, as well as the contrast of symbols and text, have been increased to visually highlight the most important elements.
Animations have been optimized to provide a smoother experience thanks to the AI animation engine. realme also offers floating window 2.0 that you can customize for different multitasking uses.
Another cool feature is Smart Sidebar, which offers quick access to some of your favorite apps. The system allows you to adjust the position of the sidebar.
- floating window
- split screen

Split screen and floating window
Thanks to memory compression , overall app launch performance is improved by 13% and battery life is extended by 12%.
The Always On Display also offers more customization options. Simply upload a photo and enjoy a unique screen with the silhouette of the person, as we saw in its day at OnePlus.
realme UI 3.0 allows users to view app permissions visually, as well as a list of app permissions and extensive information about the usage of certain apps. The company has also added a new approximate location option.
Although they are not new, realme offers some interesting features such as App Cloner that allows you to log in with two different accounts in the same app at the same time.
This is useful for apps that don’t allow you to set up multiple accounts. Unfortunately, this functionality does not allow you to select any app, but only some such as Messenger, Skype, Facebook, Twitter, Google Pay, Telegram or WhatsApp.
If we only want to restrict access to one or more apps, we can make use of Application Lock , which allows us to protect access to an application by means of a PIN, fingerprint or facial recognition. It is even possible to hide the app icon on the home screen and app drawer. For it to appear, it is necessary to enter a numeric code with the pound sign at the beginning and at the end (for example, #123456#) on the telephone dialer’s numeric keypad.
realme offers a feature called Clone Phone that allows you to quickly transfer all data saved on your old phone (including photos, contacts, and apps) to your new phone.
If you have kids around, you’ll appreciate a feature called Kid’s Space that lets you restrict access to a few apps, limit usage time, and control what kind of settings changes kids can make on the phone.
realme incorporates Do Not Disturb functionality , which puts the phone in silent mode (without vibrations) at certain times/days.
It is also possible to allow notifications (from any app, filtering is not possible), messages or calls from certain contacts, mute multimedia content, as well as not mute a second call from the same number within a 3-minute interval. What is not possible is that this mode is activated automatically based on calendar events.
In the absence section, realme does not provide a desktop-like interface in the style of Samsung’s DeX or Huawei’s EMUI Desktop.
When it comes to enjoying games, realme includes a feature called Game Space. This feature improves gaming performance by allocating more hardware resources to the game (at the cost of decreased battery life and increased heat), limiting background applications’ network access to improve latency when gaming network, and prevent automatic brightness adjustments.
It also allows you to activate a distraction-free game mode , which blocks game tools, gesture navigation, quick settings, notifications, calls and alarms.
Three performance modes can be selected:
- GT mode , which improves CPU and GPU performance, but increases battery consumption.
- Balanced mode , which maintains a balance between performance and battery consumption.
- Low Power Mode , which reduces the visual quality of games to decrease battery consumption.
The Games Space functionality is designed for gamers
During games, you can swipe from the top left corner to the center to open the Game Space settings quickly, as well as open the Messenger, Discord or WhatsApp app in a small window without leaving the game.
You can block incoming calls, display bullet notifications, or block notifications to prevent pop-up notifications from appearing at the top of the screen. It offers a touch optimization option , which allows you to adjust touch and swipe sensitivity, as well as prevent unintentional touches, block screenshot or split-screen gestures.
realme also allows you to record the screen during games including the sound of the system and the microphone, as well as the image of the front camera and the presses on the screen. You can also pause recordings and resume them later.
The realme Lab section offers some experimental features:
- Dual mode audio, which allows you to connect a Bluetooth headset and a wired headset at the same time.
- Sleep capsule, which restricts the use of the phone to rest and sleep better.
- Heart rate measurement, which makes use of the fingerprint sensor to measure the pulse.
Lastly, in terms of bloatware , unfortunately the realme GT NEO 3T comes with some pre-installed third-party apps like Facebook, TikTok, Amazon or LinkedIn.
Multimedia
realme GT NEO 3T offers stereo sound as it has two speakers: one at the bottom of the smartphone, to the right of the USB Type-C charging connector, and another at the top edge of the screen.
The sound that is emitted has a fairly powerful volume, although at maximum volume level the sound sounds quite shrill.
As usual in smartphones, a greater richness of tones is missed, especially in the bass, due to the small size of its speakers.
realme has not included the 3.5mm jack , so you will have to resort to a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter or use USB-C / Bluetooth headphones.
realme GT NEO 3T supports Dolby Atmos sound, which should bring more depth to the sound.
As for audio codecs, it is compatible with SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX HD, IDAC and IHDC.
realme GT NEO 3T allows you to apply various sound effects: Smart (recognizes the situation and applies the optimal sound effects), Theater/Cinema , Game , and Music .
Similarly, it is also possible to adapt the sound to four situations: indoors (when there is not much noise), on the move (ideal for places with a lot of noise and people), traveling (for public transport) and flight (for enjoying entertainment during a flight).
realme uses its own Music app as the default music player. This app organizes music into four tabs: Songs, Artist, Albums, and Playlists .
It is a fairly simple player, without the possibility of downloading covers or song lyrics. It is also not possible to play music stored on an external device (such as a NAS drive) or a cloud service.

When viewing photos, realme GT NEO 3T uses its own Photos application that displays all the images stored on the phone and allows you to edit them.
This app is capable of creating memories (videos) from photos taken at the same place/date and can identify people in the photos that you can name to later search by person.
Both of these actions occur in the background when the phone is connected to power with the screen turned off.

Video playback is good and the phone is able to play compatible files smoothly thanks to its processor.
I’ve tried playing some 1080p videos, both encoded with both H.264 and the more modern and efficient HEVC (H.265), and all four played smoothly.
You can also enjoy streaming services like YouTube or Netflix on the big screen of your smartphone. Of course, it has the necessary library to obtain Widevine L1 certification and I have verified that it is capable of playing YouTube content in HDR, but not on Netflix.
Camera
realme GT NEO 3T has a triple rear camera:
- 64 MP (1/2.0″, 0.7µm) wide-angle main camera (25mm) with f/1.8 aperture and PDAF
- 8 MP (1/4.0″, 1.12µm) ultra wide angle camera (119º) with f/2.3 aperture
- 2MP macro camera with f/2.4 aperture
In this set of cameras, there are some important absences. For one thing, the main camera lacks optical stabilization, so expect poorer low-light performance. On the other hand, the telephoto camera is missing, although that would have significantly increased the price of the smartphone.
The camera offers a Pro mode that allows you to modify various parameters such as white balance, focus, exposure time and ISO sensitivity. It is also possible to save images in RAW format.
Main camera (wide angle)
Starting with the main camera, Realme has incorporated a 64 MP sensor, although by default the photos are taken at 16 MP using pixel binning technology that combines 4 pixels in 1 to reduce noise and improve performance in low light conditions. light.
It is possible to activate a 64MP super high resolution mode , which allows shooting at the full resolution of the sensor.
Below, we can see an example of the same photo taken at 16 and 64 MP, as well as a crop of both. With more pixels, the image looks sharper.
- 64MP
- 16MP
- 64MP (crop)
- 16MP (crop)
The main camera offers good image quality in good light conditions, as we can see in the following photographs.
The phone captures good quality images with a good amount of detail. Colors are vivid but not exaggerated, except for a few occasions — for example, when taking pictures of vegetation, the colors look slightly oversaturated. The dynamic range is wide and the exposure is correct.
Photographs taken in good light conditions
At night, the image quality worsens as the lack of optical stabilization takes its toll. Even with everything, the images are perfectly usable, as can be seen in these examples.
Images look sharp, with a good amount of detail, even in dark areas. The exposure is right on point and the light sources look good with no flare. The colors also look quite vivid.
Pictures taken in low light conditions
realme has a Night mode , which increases the sharpness of the image, reduces noise and slightly modifies the color tone. Dynamic range is also improved, with brighter shadows without blown-out highlights.
This mode requires several seconds to capture, so it is significantly slower than normal Photo mode. Next, we can see some examples.

Photo mode and Night mode with wide angle camera
realme has incorporated an AI scene recognition system that adjusts some photo parameters (for example, color saturation) to improve the image. When activated, the camera interface indicates the name of the scene it has recognized.
My advice is to use it carefully as the resulting images can look too artificial as it tends to make the colors much more vivid.
ultra wide angle camera
The next camera is the ultra wide-angle camera , which boasts an 8MP resolution, a fairly limited f/2.3 aperture, and lacks optical stabilization.
An ultra wide angle camera provides great versatility when capturing landscape or architectural photos. Personally I find this type of lens very useful as they allow you to take much more spectacular and creative photographs than the normal camera.
Compared to the main camera, a loss of sharpness and dynamic range is noticeable, but the result is still very valid. Although these types of cameras often produce photos with dull colors, realme’s ultra wide-angle camera presents vivid colors, in line with those of the main camera.
Below, we can see some examples of photographs taken during the day.
Although with an ultra wide angle lens it is more difficult for the photo to come out blurred, its limited aperture and the lack of stabilization mean that this camera is not designed for taking photos at night, as can be seen in some of the following captures.
Night mode is also available with the ultra wide-angle camera and can significantly improve image quality. The dynamic range is clearly higher and quite a bit of detail is preserved, although greater sharpness is missing.
- Photo mode
- night mode

macro camera
Finally, we have the macro camera that allows you to take pictures at a distance of about 4 centimeters.
Its sensor with a low resolution of 2MP and a limited aperture of f/2.4 means that the image quality is not great and, in addition, the result is quite similar to what we would get by taking the same photo with the main camera and cropping the central 2MP. In my opinion, it is an expendable camera.
Here are some examples of photos taken with the macro lens.
Photographs with the macro camera
Portrait mode
realme GT NEO 3T is capable of taking pictures in Portrait mode by detecting the outline of the person we want to photograph using a depth camera with a monochrome sensor.
Unfortunately, Portrait mode only allows you to adjust the depth of field during the capture, but not afterwards, so we take a chance that the crop will work.
Portrait mode uses the main wide-angle camera, so the face tends to look distorted, with a prominent nose, especially if you get up close for a close-up. Other smartphones allow you to activate a 2X zoom mode that, even though it is a crop, helps you not have to get so close to the person.
Below, we can see several example portraits and, if we zoom in on any of them, we can see that it does a good job of separating the person from the background , even in the hair area.
Here are some examples of photos taken in Portrait mode:
Photos taken in Portrait mode
Frontal camera
The front camera has a 16MP (1/3.0″, 1.0µm) sensor with f/2.5 aperture that offers a beauty mode that allows us to smooth the skin, increase/reduce the size of the face, retouch the chin, enlarge the eyes, reduce the nose, etc. An interesting aspect of the front camera is that it can illuminate the screen to illuminate our face and be able to take selfies in low light conditions.
Although it does not have autofocus, the image quality is correct. The captures offer a good sharpness, as we can see in these example selfies, although its wide angle (26 mm) makes the faces captured up close look deformed with a fisheye, with a nose larger than reality.
One aspect that I liked is that the front camera offers HDR , so the background is still visible even though it’s brightly lit. On other smartphones, the background becomes a large white spot if you are backlit (which is usually the case so as not to go out with your eyes half closed).
selfie
The front camera also allows you to take selfies with Portrait mode , which offers a very successful result when it comes to separating the subject from the background.
Selfie with Portrait effect on
Video recording
realme GT NEO 3T can record video at up to 4K resolution at 60fps with the main camera, but only 1080p at 30fps with the ultra-wide camera.
Below we can see some videos captured by the phone, which offers a good and stable image quality during the day, but very dark at night.
Videos recorded with the main camera
voice calls
In the tests that I have carried out , the quality of the voice during the calls is correct and I have been able to hold conversations perfectly in moderately noisy environments without difficulties.
Price
The realme GT NEO 3T arrives in Spain with an official price of €429.99 (8/128GB) and €469.99 (8/256GB), but you can find good deals on Amazon .
If you are a Dragon Ball lover, the realme GT NEO 3T Dragon Ball Z Edition ( €499.99 ) is made for you as it has a box, a design and a theme inspired by the popular series.h
Another good alternative within the family is the realme GT NEO 3 ( €599 ), which has a 6.7″ 120 Hz AMOLED screen, MediaTek Dimensiry 8100 processor, 6/8 GB of RAM, 128/256 GB UFS 3.1, cameras rear wide angle (50MP, f/1.9) + ultra wide angle (8MP, f/2.3 + macro (2MP, f/2.4), front camera (16MP, f/2.5), and 5,000 mAh battery with 80W fast charge .

Conclusions
The design of the realme GT NEO 3T is inspired by the checkered flag of car racing, at least in its white and yellow color variants, since the shadow black color that I have tried has a much more sober dark gray finish.
It is not a very bulky device, but it is not one of the thinnest and lightest you can find either, since its thickness reaches 8.65 mm and its weight is 195 grams. This is quite a hefty weight for a device with a plastic chassis and rear cover.
The frames surrounding the screen are as narrow as you would expect on a phone in this price range, with the bottom one (the “chin”) being a bit thicker.
The phone has an AMOLED E4 panel with FullHD + resolution , which implies an abundant pixel density of 398 dpi.
The screen offers a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz, so the contents scroll very smoothly.
In addition, there is an automatic mode that adjusts the rate to the most appropriate, 60 or 120 Hz, depending on the content displayed. However, the frequency does not drop below 60 Hz, so battery consumption is not as low as in other smartphones that can drop to 10 Hz or less.
The display’s color fidelity is good, both in Natural mode (vs. sRGB gamut) and Vivid mode (vs. DCI P3 gamut).
The maximum brightness of the screen, 766 nits, is correct, although it is far from what other high-end smartphones obtain, which on the other hand are much more expensive.
realme has included the Ambient Display, which turns on the screen when a notification arrives, as well as the Always On Display , which allows the time, date, battery, and notification icons to be displayed permanently on the screen.
The phone incorporates a fingerprint reader under the screen, which allows you to unlock the phone just by placing your finger on it. This reader is reliable when it comes to identifying the fingerprint and the unlocking process is fast.
realme has also incorporated facial recognition that, again, is very fast when it comes to identifying us, although it is not as secure a system as the fingerprint when it comes to 2D recognition.
In terms of hardware, realme GT NEO 3T with the upper-middle-range Snapdragon 870 5G chip, a chip that was introduced in early 2021. This chip is halfway between the Snapdragon 865+, flagship of 2020, and the Snapdragon 888, the most powerful of 2021.
This chip is accompanied by 8 GB of LPDDR4x RAM , which should be enough to keep a large number of open apps in memory. realme has incorporated the possibility of using part of the storage as virtual RAM to add up to 5 GB, although to tell the truth, it is difficult to say if it makes a difference on a day-to-day basis since its operation is invisible.
We also find 128 or 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage, which is very fast. Unfortunately, it cannot be expanded via micro-SD, as it only has space for two nanoSIM cards.
In benchmarks, realme GT NEO 3T has achieved average scores in all tests , as expected given its hardware. On a day-to-day basis, it moves with acceptable fluidity , without stoppages or long waiting times when opening apps or switching between tasks.
It is worth mentioning that realme incorporates a Game mode that allows us to concentrate better in our games (for example, by deactivating notifications and incoming calls) and even increase the performance of the device while we play.
realme GT NEO 3T comes with a large 5,000 mAh battery which is more than enough for a smartphone with a screen of its size.
In the battery test, the smartphone has achieved quite very good results. and, on a day-to-day basis, you should have no problem lasting a day and a half or even more on a single charge.
realme incorporates fast charging at 80 W, which is capable of charging 100% of the battery in less than 40 minutes, so it is really fast.
realme GT NEO 3T has two speakers that offer stereo sound. The phone sounds reasonably good, although stronger bass is missing.
Unfortunately, realme hasn’t included a 3.5mm headphone jack, which means you’ll have to use either USB-C or Bluetooth headphones. It also does not include FM radio.
In the aspect of connectivity, realme GT NEO 3T comes with WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, USB Type-C 2.0 and 5G connectivity with Dual SIM support . In addition, it has NFC for mobile payments.
In the photographic section, realme GT NEO 3T has a triple rear camera made up of a wide angle camera (64MP, f / 1.8), ultra wide angle (8MP, f / 2.3) and macro (2MP, f / 2.4). They miss a telephoto camera, although these would have increased the price of the set.
In good light conditions, the images taken by the main camera (wide angle) are good, but in low light conditions, the lack of optical stabilization and the small size of the sensor causes noise to appear. In any case, the result is quite acceptable and, thanks to the night mode, usable captures are achieved.
Of course, the phone supports a Portrait mode, blurring the background of the image quite accurately. Portrait mode uses the wide-angle camera without any type of zoom, so it is necessary to move away a little from the subject to be photographed so that the face does not look deformed and the nose looks very large.
The ultra-wide camera has a limited resolution and aperture, so while daytime shots are very decent, they’re virtually unusable at night, even when using Night mode.
The macro camera has limited resolution and is in my opinion an expendable lens as the result is similar to zooming in with the main camera and cropping.
The camera app offers a Pro mode (main camera only) with plenty of manual control options and the ability to shoot in Extra HD mode, which captures photos using the full resolution of the sensor.
As for video recording, you can record at 4K resolution at 60 fps with the main camera, and 1080p at 30 fps with the front camera.
At the software level, realme GT NEO 3T arrives with Android 12 and, above it, the Realme UI 3.0 customization layer, which is the same layer as OPPO’s ColorOS.
This layer adds a number of added features such as granular app permissions, multi-account app cloning, screen off gestures, smart sidebar, app lock, secure keyboard, hide apps on desktop, and a safe for protect files.
The phone comes with a lot of bloatware, with almost a dozen pre-installed apps, which can at least be uninstalled.
The realme GT NEO 3T arrives in Spain with an official price of €429.99 (8/128GB) and €469.99 (8/256GB), but you can find good deals on Amazon .
Is it worth buying the realme GT NEO T? If you are looking for a smartphone with a good screen, stereo sound, solid performance and a very competent battery, realme GT NEO 3T is a good option, although it cannot compete in design and cameras with more expensive smartphones.
The best:
- Design with reasonably narrow bezels around the screen.
- AMOLED E4 screen with good sharpness, wide color gamut and 120 Hz refresh rate that adapts to the content displayed.
- Good performance thanks to the Snadpragon 870 chip, 8GB of LPDDR4x RAM and 1287256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage.
- realme UI 3.0 software with features that extend Android features: app cloning, app encryption, screen gestures, safe, hide apps, games space, etc.
- Integrated fingerprint reader under the screen that unlocks the phone quickly, as well as 2D facial recognition.
- Dual SIM support with 5G connectivity.
- NFC support.
- Excellent autonomy and fast charge at 80W with charger included in the box
- stereo speakers
Worst:
- Chassis and rear cover made of plastic, while other rivals use more sophisticated materials.
- Camera quality can be improved in low light conditions due to the absence of optical stabilization.
- No microSD card.
- No water resistance. | https://voonze.com/realme-gt-neo-3t-analisis-a-fondo-y-opinion/ | 2022-06-29T05:59:26Z | https://voonze.com/realme-gt-neo-3t-analisis-a-fondo-y-opinion/ | true | 1 |

SAN ANTONIO — Forty-six people were found dead after being abandoned in a tractor-trailer on a remote back road in San Antonio in the latest tragedy to claim the lives of migrants smuggled across the border from Mexico to the U.S. Sixteen people were hospitalized, including four children.
A city worker heard a cry for help from the truck shortly before 6 p.m. Monday and discovered the gruesome scene, Police Chief William McManus said. Hours later, body bags lay spread on the ground near the trailer and bodies remained inside as authorities responded to the calamity.
San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg said the 46 who died had “families who were likely trying to find a better life.”
“This is nothing short of a horrific human tragedy,” Nirenberg said.
It’s among the deadliest of the tragedies that have claimed thousands of lives in recent decades as people attempt to cross the U.S. border from Mexico. Ten migrants died in 2017 after being trapped inside a truck parked at a Walmart in San Antonio. In 2003, the bodies of 19 migrants were found in a sweltering truck southeast of San Antonio.
The home countries of the immigrants and how long they were abandoned on the side of the road were not immediately known.
South Texas has long been the busiest area for illegal border crossings. Migrants ride in vehicles through Border Patrol checkpoints to San Antonio, the closest major city, from which point they disperse across the United States.
Officers arrived to find a body on the ground outside the trailer and a partially opened gate to the trailer. Three people were taken into custody, but it was unclear if they were definitively connected with human trafficking, McManus said.
Of the 16 taken to hospitals with heat-related illnesses, 12 were adults and four were children, said Fire Chief Charles Hood. The patients were hot to the touch and dehydrated, and no water was found in the trailer, he said.
“They were suffering from heat stroke and exhaustion,” Hood said. “It was a refrigerated tractor-trailer, but there was no visible working AC unit on that rig.”
Those in the trailer were part of a presumed migrant smuggling attempt into the United States, and the investigation was being led by U.S. Homeland Security Investigations, McManus said.
Big rigs emerged as a popular smuggling method in the early 1990s amid a surge in U.S. border enforcement in San Diego and El Paso, Texas, which were then the busiest corridors for illegal crossings.
Before that, people paid small fees to mom-and-pop operators to get them across a largely unguarded border. As crossing became exponentially more difficult after the 2001 terror attacks in the U.S., migrants were led through more perilous terrain and paid thousands of dollars more.
Heat poses a serious danger, particularly when temperatures can rise severely inside vehicles. Weather in the San Antonio area was mostly cloudy Monday, but temperatures approached 100 degrees.
Some advocates drew a link to the Biden administration’s border policies. Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, policy director at the American Immigration Council, wrote that he had been dreading such a tragedy for months.
“With the border shut as tightly as it is today for migrants from Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, people have been pushed into more and more dangerous routes. Truck smuggling is a way up,” he wrote on Twitter.
Stephen Miller, a chief architect of former President Donald Trump’s immigration policies, said, “Human smugglers and traffickers are wicked and evil” and that the administration’s approach to border security rewards their actions.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, a Republican running for reelection, was blunt in a tweet about the Democratic president: “These deaths are on Biden. They are a result of his deadly open border policies.”
Migrants — largely from Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador — have been expelled more than 2 million times under a pandemic-era rule in effect since March 2020 that denies them a chance to seek asylum but encourages repeat attempts because there are no legal consequences for getting caught. People from other countries, notably Cuba, Nicaragua and Colombia, are subject to Title 42 authority less frequently due to higher costs of sending them home, strained diplomatic relations and other considerations.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection reported 557 deaths on the southwest border in the 12-month period ending Sept. 30, more than double the 247 deaths reported in the previous year and the highest since it began keeping track in 1998. Most are related to heat exposure.
CBP has not published a death tally for this year but said that the Border Patrol performed 14,278 “search-and-rescue missions” in a seven-month period through May, exceeding the 12,833 missions performed during the previous 12-month period and up from 5,071 the year before.

Gold prices treaded water on Wednesday in the international markets, with lower US Treasury yields lending support, as bullion's struggle to break out of its range-bound trade continued. Spot gold was up 0.1% at $1,821.57 per ounce by 0254 GMT. US gold futures firmed 0.1% at $1,823.10.
At 9.43am, gold contracts were trading 0.03 percent higher at Rs 50,835 for 10 grams on the Multi-Commodity Exchange (MCX) while silver shed 0.24 percent to Rs 59,399 a kilogram.
Trading Strategy
Pritam Patnaik, Head - Commodities, HNI and NRI Acquisitions, Axis Securities
Gold prices internationally remained under pressure, as a rising dollar capped any chances of an upside, despite softening of treasury yields. In our domestic markets, a depreciating rupee provided some support to gold prices, which helped MCX gold to close higher by Rs 221, up 0.44% for yesterday’s day of trade.
Today, all eyes will be on the Fed chair’s statement . While he has already made the central Bank’s stance clear, the market will look for confirmation of the aggressive maneuvers proposed by Fed members to reign in inflation. If reconfirmed, gold prices could slide further. That said, a weak rupee will continue to support local gold prices.
Tapan Patel, Senior Analyst (Commodities), HDFC Securities
Gold prices traded steady on Wednesday with spot gold prices at COMEX were trading near $1822 per ounce in the morning trade. The yellow metal is trading in narrow range of $1820-$1840 on lack of fresh triggers. The traders and investors are weighing global growth worries and tighter monetary policy which has kept gold prices in "no-man's land" territory. The stronger dollar has capped upside in gold prices on reiterated FED stance over larger rate hike.
We expect gold prices to trade sideways to down for the day with COMEX Spot gold support at $1810 and resistance at $1840 per ounce. MCX Gold August support lies at Rs. 50500 and resistance at Rs. 51000 per 10 grams.
Nirpendra Yadav, Senior Commodity Research Analyst at Swastika Investmart
Gold prices gained 0.40% in the previous session despite rising US bond yield and a stronger US dollar index. US consumer confidence stood at 98.7 versus 103.2 registered earlier. However, Silver prices remained down 0.60% due to weak demand for industrial metals. Today volatility in the precious metals along with crude oil is expected amid OPEC countries' meeting scheduled with the speech of the head of the US Fed, European Central Bank, and Bank of England. Gold prices are steady at this level and are likely to move towards the Rs 51300-51500 levels. It has support at Rs 50400. Silver prices may remain range-bound. It has support at Rs 58000 and resistance at Rs 61000.

Good morning, and good luck making sense of the following sequence of events: first, well sourced reports that defence secretary Ben Wallace is asking for spending on the armed forces to be increased to 2.5% of GDP. Then, the head of the army saying we’re in a “1937 moment” and need to urgently replenish our forces. And then, the government ditching its manifesto commitment to increase spending by 0.5% above inflation.
Then, Wallace denied he asked for that 2.5% commitment in an interview, but sounded pretty critical of the government’s approach. Then, Boris Johnson insisted the 0.5% target would be met this year, around the same time that Wallace made a speech saying that “as the threat changes so must the funding”. And this morning, the Daily Telegraph reports that Downing Street was “furious” at Wallace’s speech and intervened to water it down.
Confused? You should be! Today’s newsletter will try to straighten out those percentages, and decipher what it means for the future of our armed forces – with the help of IFS senior research economist Ben Zaranko, who is as clever as his job makes him sound, but less intimidating on the phone, happily for me. That’s after the headlines.
Five big stories
Climate crisis | The government is failing to enact the policies needed to reach the UK’s net zero targets, a statutory watchdog has said. The Climate Change Committee’s damning progress report said there was “scant evidence of delivery”.
US news | Ghislaine Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison in New York for procuring teen girls for Jeffrey Epstein for him to abuse. Maxwell, 60, told the victims she was “sorry for the pain you experienced” but did not acknowledge responsibility.
Scottish independence | Nicola Sturgeon has set herself on a collision course with Downing Street by asking the supreme court to rule on the legality of a new referendum on Scottish independence without Westminster’s permission. Many lawyers believe the court will view such a referendum as unlawful.
Nato | A last minute agreement has been reached between Turkey, Finland and Sweden to allow the two Nordic countries to become Nato members on the eve of the military alliance’s summit in Madrid.
UK News | Dame Deborah James, the teacher turned podcaster who campaigned to raise awareness of bowel cancer, has died, her family has said. She had raised £6m for cancer research since announcing she was receiving end of life care last month.
In depth: Making sense of our armed forces’ future
Is Ben Wallace on the warpath? No 10 will fear so as he tours the broadcast studios this morning. He does so ahead of Johnson’s speech to the Nato summit in Madrid, where he’ll claim the UK already spends 2.3% of GDP on defence and call on others to match it. It all has the makings of a properly consequential political row. Here are some essential points to bear in mind as they each set out their stalls:
The UK has increased defence spending recently – but it’s still historically low
In the mid 1950s, UK defence spending was about 8% of GDP. “That’s a huge chunk of what the government does,” said Ben Zaranko. That figure fell sharply to 4% of GDP in the 1970s, and has continued to fall ever since.
“It’s been hovering around 2% since the early 2010s,” said Zaranko. (Johnson’s 2.3% claim includes aid to Ukraine, which others, including Nato, would consider a bit misleading.) The mooted 2.5% figure would “return us to where we were in the mid 90s, but still shy of where we were at the end of the cold war, when it was 3% of GDP”.
Above is an IFS graph that makes all that clear. (Click here to see it up close, but if you squint a bit at the general direction of the line you’ll get the idea.)
In the short term, said Zaranko, “the MoD can use Treasury reserves to meet unexpected costs – that’s what happened in Iraq and Afghanistan. But there’s another question: has Russia made the world a more dangerous place?”
There is a way to increase defence spending at the same time as decreasing it (sort of)
Ben Wallace had a very busy day, and his demand for the need to boost the military budget have been what the Spectator called “increasingly indiscreet” in recent months. He did deny at a New Statesman event on Tuesday that he had asked for an increase in defence spending to 2.5% of GDP, but said that “he’d done what any secretary of state would have done” by asking for “a discussion” about more money. Then he made a speech to the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) saying that the army is surviving on “a diet of smoke and mirrors”, among other unsubtly disgruntled formulations.
According to the Telegraph, No 10 intervened to ask Wallace to remove a line saying that spending 2% of GDP on defence was outdated. But this story by Peter Walker and Dan Sabbagh quotes a senior government source saying that a manifesto commitment to a 0.5% increase in spending every year in this parliament was now subject to “a reality check”. Johnson later seemed to fudge that by saying that the target would be met if inflation is measured over the long term, not annually. What’s going on?
The first thing to know in trying to make sense of this is that most of that increased spending was distributed to the early years of this parliament. “They frontloaded the increases quite massively,” said Zaranko. “So you have a very significant increase in the first and second year … then it was set to be broadly maintained. And now higher inflation means it will fall a bit.” He also points out that the decrease has been slated for some time.
The government could make an additional longer term commitment – but it would be steep. Zaranko estimates that to hit Wallace’s alleged 2.5% ask by 2028 from the current level of around 2%, you’d have to increase spending by about £10bn, or 9%, each year – a sum which it sounds like Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak would be unwilling to entertain.
That money might not go as far as it sounds
In a recent IFS podcast, Malcolm Chalmers, Deputy Director-General of RUSI, said that if funding increases, “in the short term I think making the force we have more effective is going to be a strong priority.”
That was echoed by a speech to that same RUSI conference yesterday by Chief of the General Staff General Sir Patrick Sanders in which he said that “deterring Russia means more of the Army ready more of the time.” (“To put it bluntly, you can’t cyber your way across a river,” he added.)
But before any new investments, the military faces the same costs causing pain for everyone at the moment: inflation and energy. The military is “particularly exposed to things like aviation fuel, and it has lots of barracks to keep warm,” said Zaranko. “Those are significant pressures. A far bigger one will be what happens to their pay bill.”
The government would probably raise taxes to pay for it
At least for now, there’s no likely scope for cuts to other government departments or borrowing. “In the medium term you might just spend less on other areas,” said Zaranko – but he thinks that’s unlikely when public services are creaking. “A more realistic outlook is that taxes would have to be higher.”
Wallace, as a former soldier, noted that the so-called “peace dividend” from cutting the military has funded other spending for decades. Here’s another IFS chart comparing health and defence budgets which makes that clear (again, click here if you want to see it in more detail):
“I was that soldier in 1991 when the cold war came to an end and the Treasury took their peace dividend,” Wallace said. “They’ve kept taking it. They keep taking it every year.”
Whatever happens, the terms of the debate on military spending have shifted
Probably the most remarkable index of the way priorities in the west have been reshaped by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is in Germany’s new commitment to defence spending – with the infusion of a massive new €100bn (£85bn) fund to boost its armed forces. That is a historic shift, and raises a big question over whether the UK lets Berlin pick up some of the slack within Nato, or keeps pace to maintain its global influence.
The course of the war has forced the British military to “re-think how we fight”, Sanders said, promising a “new doctrine”. But that will cost money – and the mixed messages coming out of government about what it is prepared to spend suggest that the debate over the future of the armed forces has a long way to run.

The Upside
A bit of good news to remind you that the world’s not all bad
For years Colombia has suffered from a high rate of femicide – in 2021 the country had one of the highest on the continent. Systemic corruption and violent misogyny has fuelled a feminist movement that is fighting back.
One of the people at the front of these protests and civil action is María Galindo, founder of Mujeres Creando, a feminist collective in La Paz. She has done everything from storming state institutions, questioning civil servants on social media about what they’re doing to make Bolivia a safer country for women, to cataloguing ignored reports of gender violence.
The Bolivian government has responded to the social pressure by setting up a commission to re-evaluate violent offences against women. “No one can buy us,” says Galindo, “we are incorruptible.”

Upon the incident, US President Joe Biden expressed grief and described Texas migrant deaths as horrifying and added the authorities are still learning all the facts about what happened.
The tragic loss of life in San Antonio, Texas that took place yesterday is horrifying and heartbreaking. Our prayers are with those who lost their lives, their loved ones, as well as those still fighting for their lives. As always, I am grateful for the swift work of all of the Federal, state, and local first responders," Biden quoted the White House as saying.

"While we are still learning all the facts about what happened and the Department of Homeland Security has the lead for the investigation, initial reports are that this tragedy was caused by smugglers or human traffickers who have no regard for the lives they endanger and exploit to make a profit," he added.
According to the US President, this incident underscores the need to go after the multi-billion dollar criminal smuggling industry preying on migrants and leading to far too many innocent deaths.

Earlier in the Monday briefing, San Antonio Police Chief William McManus said that three people are in police custody, but it's unclear if they are involved in the tragedy.
Police received a call on Monday evening from a person working nearby, who heard a cry for help from the 18-wheeler in the southwest of the city, approached and saw bodies inside the trailer with its doors partially open, said McManus.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is leading an investigation on an alert by San Antonio police to "an alleged human smuggling event," a spokesperson from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Monday.
"There are, that we know of, 46 individuals who are no longer with us, who had families, who were likely trying to find a better life. And we have 16 folks who are fighting for their lives in the hospital," San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg told the briefing.
"Migrants seeking asylum should always be treated as a humanitarian crisis, but this evening we're facing a horrific human tragedy," he tweeted earlier.
Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott, on Monday night, slammed Biden for the tragedy, tweeting: "These deaths are on Biden. They are a result of his deadly open border policies." (ANI)

CLIFTON PARK, N.Y. (AP) — New York's recreational marijuana market is beginning to sprout, literally, with thin-leafed plants stretching toward the sun in farms around the state.
In a novel move, New York gave 203 hemp growers first shot at cultivating marijuana destined for legal sales, which could start by the end of the year. Big indoor growers are expected to join later.
But for now, the field is clear for growers like Frank Popolizio of Homestead Farms and Ranch, where a small crew north of Albany earlier this month dug out shallow holes for seedlings before packing them in by hand.
“It is an opportunity, there’s obviously going to be a demand for it,” Popolizio said during a break in planting. “And hopefully it benefits the farmers. Been a long time since there’s been a real cash crop.”
Popolizio is tending to a half-acre plot that will grow upward of a 1,000 plants surrounded by a tall electrified fence. He and other “conditional cultivator” license holders can grow up to an acre of marijuana outdoors. They can grow all or some of their crop in greenhouses, though in smaller areas, and use limited lighting.
The license is good for two years, and holders will be able to distribute cannabis flower products to retail dispensaries.
The head start for hemp growers is an unusual way to gear up a marijuana market. Heather Trela, a marijuana policy expert at the Rockefeller Institute of Government in Albany, said states typically rely initially on their existing medical growers. New Jersey, for instance, launched sales this year with cannabis grown indoors and sold by companies involved in the medical marijuana market.
But New York’s move is a potential lifeline for farmers growing their crop for CDB during a slump in prices. They have a chance to make much more money growing what is essentially the same plant, but with higher levels of THC — the compound that makes people feel high. Popolizio sees it as his “next logical step.”
A lifelong athlete, Popolizio seems like an unlikely cannabis farmer. He has never puffed a joint or chewed an edible. But the amateur wrestling coach and promoter added cannabis to the mix at Homestead along with beef, turkeys and chickens. And he’s begun to appreciate the potential benefits of cannabis for adults.
“I’m open minded and I’ve come to understand that there is value,” he said.
The inclusion of smaller farmers also helps the state meet its mandate to create an economically and demographically diverse marijuana industry. Similarly, the first licenses to sell recreational marijuana in New York will go to those with marijuana-related convictions or their relatives.
“There’s a market that we’re building for small players, for big players, for medium-sized players, for family businesses, for big corporations as well,” said Chris Alexander, executive director of state’s Office of Cannabis Management.
The first-wave growers this year are projected to produce a couple of hundred thousand pounds of product. That would be a fraction of the projected demand in New York, which could eventually be well over a million pounds annually. But state regulators say their launch plan is to balance supply and demand, expanding cultivation as more dispensaries open.
“We do think it will be sufficient to provide that initial supply to our our dispensary locations that we get up and running,” Alexander said.
Statewide, the large majority of cannabis grown outdoors and in greenhouses is expected to be processed for products like edibles and vapes, with the rest to be sold as smokable flower, said Allan Gandelman, president of the New York Cannabis Growers and Processors Association.
Cannabis grown outdoors can often have lower THC than plants grown indoors under lights. That makes it less desirable to some consumers, though others appreciate its nuanced characteristics, comparing it to garden-grown tomatoes or a complex glass of wine.
“It’s called sun-grown marijuana,” said grower Moke Mokotoff of Claverack Creek Farm in the Hudson Valley. “And a lot of aficionados just like the way it smokes better.”
Growing weed under the sun with sustainable practices also requires far less energy than electricity-hungry indoor grows. Bridge West Consulting chief executive officer Ari Hoffnung said that could translate into lower prices.
Aside from pests and bad weather, a big challenge to growing weed outdoors is the threat of thievery. Homestead’s half acre is not only surrounded by an electrified fence, but he has motion detectors and other security features.
About an hour south, Mokotoff is taking similar security precautions and plans to step them up just before harvest, when plants' THC content will be at its highest.
“We plan to have people sleeping in the field,” Mokotoff said.
The turbo boost in production is expected to come from indoor growers, in particular the companies that already produce medical marijuana. With regulations still pending, Alexander expects more licenses to be offered early next year.
Major industry players are already poised to take advantage of an expanded market.
Chicago-based Green Thumb Industries is building a growing and manufacturing facility that will cover more than 4.5 acres (18,210 square meters) at the site of a former prison north of New York City. The Warwick facility is expected to be operating next year, producing a wide array of Green Thumb products.
The company sells its brands in 15 states and owns a company providing medical cannabis in New York.

Govt credits Rs 586.66 crore into farmers accounts under Rythu Bandhu
The State government has reportedly credited Rs 586.66 crore into the bank accounts of farmers with less than one acre land on the first day of the Rythu Bandhu investment support scheme
Hyderabad: The State government has reportedly credited Rs 586.66 crore into the bank accounts of farmers with less than one acre land on the first day of the Rythu Bandhu investment support scheme. The first day of the ninth season of the scheme benefited about 19.98 lakh farmers covering a total area of 11.73 lakh acres across Telangana.
In a statement, Agriculture Minister S Niranjan Reddy said Telangana was the only State in the country that provides investment assistance to farmers, while none of the national parties such as the BJP and Congress ever implemented it in States ruled by them. The State government is providing Rs 5,000 per acre each during Vaanakalam and Yasangi seasons, towards purchase of seeds, fertilisers, pesticides and other material.
The scheme will benefit about 68.1 lakh eligible farmers who own a total 1.5 crore acres of farm land in the State. A total amount of Rs 7,521.8 crore will be transferred into the bank accounts of farmers in a phased manner on the basis of their land ownership. | https://www.thehansindia.com/telangana/govt-credits-rs-58666-crore-into-farmers-accounts-under-rythu-bandhu-751028 | 2022-06-29T06:12:49Z | https://www.thehansindia.com/telangana/govt-credits-rs-58666-crore-into-farmers-accounts-under-rythu-bandhu-751028 | false | 2 |
The Supreme Court on Wednesday agreed to hear at 5 pm the plea of Shiv Sena chief whip Sunil Prabhu challenging the Maharashtra Governor's direction to the Uddhav Thackeray-led Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government to take floor test in the Assembly on Thursday.
A vacation bench of Justices Surya Kant and J B Pardiwala took note of submissions of senior advocate A M Singhvi that an urgent hearing was needed in view of the decision taken by Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari asking the MVA government to prove majority at 11 am on Thursday.
"We will keep at 5 pm. Please make sure that paper books are supplied by 3 pm to parties concerned," the bench said. Singhvi said the floor test cannot include names which are "stigmatised".
Earlier, the apex court on June 27 had kept in abeyance the disqualification proceedings against rebel Shiv Sena MLAs before the Deputy Speaker of the state Assembly till July 11, and also sought responses from the state government and others on their pleas questioning the legality of notices seeking their disqualification.

Press play to listen to this article
Voiced by Amazon Polly
When news broke that the U.S. Supreme Court had overturned decades of precedent and opened the door to abortion bans across the country, the reaction from opponents of the procedure in Europe was simple: We can do it too.
With support for legal abortion in Europe polling at the highest in the world, its opponents know they are rowing against the tide. But activists on the Continent got a practical demonstration of how a determined minority can make the impossible happen last weekend, when the U.S. Supreme Court confirmed a POLITICO scoop that it was repealing the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling. The decision made, or will soon make, abortion illegal across 16 states.
For opponents of abortion in Europe, the ruling confirmed their belief that public opinion and — perhaps more importantly — public policy can be changed.
“This is very positive, and it will be looked at by other judges,” said Grégor Puppinck, director of the European Center for Law and Justice and one of the biggest names in anti-abortion activism in Europe, a few hours after the Supreme Court decision was announced.
“I think it is obvious that 50 years after Roe v. Wade, abortion is still a problem, and it will always be a problem,” he added. “Normalization is not possible.”
Puppinck, a Quebec native who studied law in France, heads the legal foundation out of Strasbourg, where he is carrying out a strategy inspired by the American anti-abortion movement — with funding and support from backers in the United States.
By issuing legal opinions and representing clients in court cases, the ECLJ pushes for conservative interpretations of the law on topics like religious freedom, assisted suicide and, of course, abortion in the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) and in other international organizations.
Over the years Puppinck has made a name for himself. He's served as an adviser to the Vatican, and was awarded honors by the Italian government for his legal services in a lawsuit over the right to hang crucifixes in public schools.
This May, he gave a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Budapest where he inveighed against socialism, postmodernism and French President Emmanuel Macron. The annual U.S. version of the conference is a top political meet-up for the American Republican Party. In the Hungarian edition, not-coincidentally held in the capital of Viktor Orbán's hard-right government, Puppinck was joined by heavyweights from the American right, including Fox News host Tucker Carlson.
American ties
Organizations like Puppinck’s are part of an American effort to export anti-abortion activism across the Atlantic.
Over the past half-century, U.S. anti-abortion activists have chipped away at the precedent set by the U.S. Supreme Court in the 1973 Roe v. Wade case, even when it looked set in stone, arguing that the verdict was based on faulty legal reasoning.
It was in the U.S. that largely evangelical activists blazed a trail and turned opposition to abortion into a basic conservative position, making the religious right a decisive voting block for Republican candidates. They also targeted law schools. In 1982, activists set up the Federalist Society to promote conservative interpretations of the American Constitution.
Now, through a combination of electoral success, determination to expand their influence in the judiciary, and sheer luck with the timing of a number of key U.S. Supreme Court appointments coinciding with Donald Trump’s presidency, they had their biggest win in a half-century.
Opposition to abortion isn’t anything new in Europe either. The Catholic Church's condemnation of abortion dates back hundreds of years, and it's only hardened over time. Orthodox and conservative Protestant groups take similar stances.
But with activists on the Continent so far unable to replicate the success of their American counterparts, U.S. groups are trying to put their thumb on the scale, sharing tactics and funding with allies in Europe.
In total, $81.3 million worth of funding flowed from U.S. donors to help fund activism against abortion and other conservative causes between 2009 and 2018, according to a report compiled by the European Parliamentary Forum for Sexual and Reproductive Rights (EPF), a pro-abortion access network that connects members across European parliaments with a liberal stance on sexual and reproductive rights.
EPF Executive Director Neil Datta called the U.S. Supreme Court decision the result of a multi-decade campaign by Christian conservatives to influence the American judicial system. Now the same is happening in Europe, said Datta.
“We're just at a much earlier stage in the process than the United States.”
In the funding model outlined by Datta in the report, influential mega-donors set up charitable foundations that back activist groups in the U.S. These in turn operate, directly or through subsidiary organizations, overseas.
Puppinck’s ECLJ, for example, is an offshoot of the American Center for Law & Justice (ACLJ), a conservative organization based out of Washington D.C. The ACLJ was set up by American televangelist Pat Robertson and is led by Jay Sekulow, one of the lawyers who represented Trump in his first impeachment trial. Tax filings show how the ACLJ helps fund its European counterpart, transferring $1.4 million in the year ending March 2020.
In parallel, liberal American donors back pro-abortion rights groups, and the EPF website lists George Soros’ Open Society Foundations (OSF) and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation as backers. The ECLJ itself has published a report tracking links between the OSF and judges who served on the ECHR.
The Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) International is another European-headquartered offshoot of a conservative U.S. organization.
Tax returns show how the U.S.-based ADF donated around $2.7 million to various European groups under the name ADF International headquartered in Belgium, France, Switzerland, Germany and the U.K. in the year ended June 2021. ADF, in turn, received $100,000 in the year ended June 2020 from the Prince Foundation, where the founder of the security contractor once known as Blackwater and Trump-ally Erik Prince serves as director.
ADF International is headquartered in Vienna but has offices in Brussels, Geneva, London and Strasbourg. According to the EU's transparency register, ADF International's Austrian branch had a budget of €9.5 million for the year through June 2021. The organization provides legal services to defendants in sensitive cases — for example helping a midwifery student win damages after being suspended from a university over what ADF International said was her anti-abortion views.
The group is also active in the European institutions. In 2017, it co-hosted an event with MEPs from the center-right European People's Party group on the use of fetal tissue in scientific research. And last year, it organized a briefing on the persecution of Christians in Myanmar with MEPs from both the EPP and the right-wing European Conservatives and Reformists group.
Updating the script
Legal battles and lobbying efforts with conservative politicians are one thing; but the activists know that if they are to obtain their objectives, they can’t ignore the court of public opinion.
Lois McLatchie, 26, originally from Scotland, is a communications officer for ADF International out of Vienna. She said that while "people may be surprised to hear" it, she believes her stance against abortion is a feminist one. “I think we can do far better to support mothers and their babies,” McLatchie said.
On May 7, anti-abortion groups converged on Brussels under the banner of the pan-European group One of Us.
In 2014, the group — at the time under the leadership of Puppinck — made waves in the EU capital, after it gathered nearly 2 million signatures in a citizen's initiative to ban EU funding for research using fetal tissue (it didn't pass). The gathering this year coincided with the end of the Conference of the Future of Europe, where One of Us also had tried to bring the topic of abortion to the forefront, this time with less success.
The event also highlighted the difference between the movement’s traditional campaigners and a new generation of activists working to deliver a fresher — more hopeful — message.
Though the gathering took place the same week as the bombshell news of POLITICO’s U.S. Supreme Court leak, its mostly older speakers made almost no mention of it. Instead, sounding more like an academic meeting than a political rally, participants discoursed on the meaning of freedom and responsibility. Aristotle was mentioned more than once. The names of the justices that were about to overturn Roe v. Wade didn't come up at all.
In an interview after the event, One of Us president, the grey-bearded 70-year-old former Basque politician Jaime Mayor Oreja, painted a gloomy picture of the future, for both the anti-abortion activism and society as a whole.
“We're experiencing the end of a period," said Oreja. "A period that is presided over by decadence.”
Younger attendees, however, gave a cheerier take on the future of their movement — one more attuned to current events than Classical philosophers.
Aliette Espieux, 23, is a spokeswoman for France’s March for Life. Another American export, the first March for Life was a street demonstration first held in 1974, the year after the Roe v. Wade decision. An annual Paris version of the event was started in 2005. In 2017, official estimates put the number of attendees at around 11,000, though this year attendance fell to about 4,500, according to the Paris police.
“My main goal is, first of all, to change the mentality of people on the ground," said Espieux, whose Twitter bio predicts that she belongs to the generation that will “abolish abortion.”
Like others in this younger — very often female — cohort, Espieux is working to update the movement’s pitch for a modern audience, putting sympathy for the plight of women front and center.
"Women who have an abortion suffer ... we want to speak with this person on the street,” she said, adding she was enthusiastic about the news from the U.S. — at the time only a leaked draft.
“It gives us a huge [amount of] energy," she said.
Maria Formosa is even younger. The 19-year-old comes from Malta, the country with the strictest abortion laws in the EU. Last year, Formosa said that with four friends she launched an online group called I See Life where pro-life young people could share their views.
“This was an initiative which we took, after observing that in Malta, there are many pro-life youths,” she said. “However, they are afraid to speak up. We wanted to create a platform where youths can feel safe.”
The potential of this new generation has not gone unnoticed by the movement’s establishment. Last year, in response to what it described as the "deepening crisis of academic life,” the Polish conservative think tank Ordo Iuris founded a Warsaw-based university intended to promote conservative causes and train a pipeline of graduates to staff the movement’s organizations, as well as provide candidates for the courts and other government institutions.
At Collegium Intermarium, students can take a five-year course in law, as well as post-graduate courses in the "Management of non-governmental organisations" or in "Human Rights and International Dispute Resolution" — which includes a class taught by Puppinck.
What's to come
It's not a coincidence that the Collegium Intermarium is based out of Warsaw. If in most of Europe the right to abortion is in no immediate danger, Poland is the country anti-abortion activists point to as their guiding star.
The country instituted a near-total ban in 2020, when a top court ruled pregnancies couldn’t be terminated due to fetal defects. The decision left only rape or incest, or if the life of the woman is threatened, as exceptions.
Ordo Iuris was the driving force behind the ban, publishing a "friend of the court" brief to the tribunal. The organization's leader, Jerzy Kwaśniewski, said it was “a great day” when the tribunal made its ruling.
Since then, the ultra-Catholic conservative group has been busy making sure that the ban is followed, explained Katarzyna Gęsiak, director of the group's Center for Medical Law and Bioethics.
“The pro-abortion organizations, they are still active and they're finding another way to increase the number of abortions," said Gęsiak.
Abortions on the grounds of a threat to mental health was one example Gęsiak gave of — as she described it — the loopholes that pro-abortion NGOs were using to provide women abortions.
Pregnant Ukrainian refugees was another. The Ordo Iuris director said she was fighting to make sure that refugees were going through the Polish prosecutor's office to certify they had really been raped by Russian soldiers, before getting cleared to terminate their pregnancy.
The Polish example also shows how it’s one thing to put in place restrictions on abortion — and another to maintain them.
Despite the dominance of the conservative Law and Justice party, the issue has been politically fraught for right-wing politicians.
In 2016, a proposed law to ban abortion was withdrawn for being too unpopular. And while the Constitutional Tribunal's 2020 decision avoided a dicey vote in parliament, it too was met with huge protests — the largest in the country since the fall of the Iron Curtain.
In 2021, these flared up once again after the death of a pregnant woman, which the family's lawyer blamed on doctors delaying a potentially life-saving abortion.
Meanwhile, opposition leader Donald Tusk, leader of the conservative Civic Platform party, has come out in favor of legal abortion, possibly seeing it as a vote winner.
If anti-abortion efforts gain traction across the Continent, the reaction to this week’s Roe ruling will likely presage a new division in European politics. Abortion might prove to split the European right as much as it unifies the left.
In the U.K., the country with the longest window of legal abortion in Europe, Conservative Prime Minister Boris Johnson called the U.S. Supreme Court decision "big step backwards."
In Italy, Simone Pillon of the far-right League party celebrated the U.S. court decision on Twitter, calling it a "great victory." By contrast, Giorgia Meloni, the leader of Italy's other major hard-right party, Brothers of Italy, played down the relevance of the American abortion debate to Italy after the verdict: "The U.S. and Italy have profoundly different legal systems that can't be compared."
In Spain, the far-right Vox party has its roots in the "pro-life" movement, and its party leaders attended an anti-abortion demonstration in Madrid shortly after news of the ruling broke. Led by Oreja of One of Us, an estimated 20,000 people showed up.
Whether most European leaders like it or not, the abortion debate in Europe is here to stay.

The Army has awarded two companies $36 million each to develop a prototype for its next-generation ground system to collect and disseminate sensor data to decision-makers and weapons platforms.
In a Tuesday announcement, the Army said it awarded Palantir and Raytheon Technologies other transaction authority agreements (OTAs) for development and integration of the Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node (TITAN).
TITAN is considered a critical modernization component for the Army’s multi-domain operations concept because it will integrate various types of data from numerous platforms to help commanders make sense of an increasingly dynamic and complex battlefield.
The Army has described the system as the next-generation intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) ground station that will process sensor data from space and aerial and terrestrial systems using state-of-the-art machine learning and artificial intelligence technology. It is intended to provide intelligence support for targeting as well as situational awareness.
Officials have said the capability will be key to enabling the Pentagon’s vision for Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2), which envisions a more seamless integration of sensor and shooter data and networks.
TITAN is a “real critical enabler for us in the assessment of our data, [a] critical enabler for us in that future JADC2 environment that we want to operate in,” Mark Kitz, the program executive officer for intelligence, electronic warfare and sensors, has said.
According to Army budget documents, the service requested $84.8 million in procurement funding in fiscal 2023 for TITAN, which will go towards two production-representative TITAN systems under Middle Tier Acquisition rapid prototyping guidelines.
The prototyping effort will provide “operational leave behind capability supporting operational assessments that will inform the TITAN Capability Development Document (CDD) and FY25 Milestone C/Rapid Fielding Decision. Funds will also support engineering, fielding, and software requirements,” the documents state.
The Army plans to spend $1.5 billion on procurement of the system over the next five years.
Palantir and Raytheon Technologies are expected to develop competing systems that will be based on soldier feedback and evaluated at a demonstration to inform the selection of a single vendor. The prototyping phase is expected to last 14 months, with a down-select expected in fiscal 2023, an Army spokesperson told FedScoop.
Both companies were previously awarded contracts to incrementally develop the initial capabilities in prior phases of the TITAN effort.
Editor’s note: This story has been updated to include additional information about the schedule for the prototyping phase of the TITAN project and the selection of a single vendor. | https://www.fedscoop.com/army-awards-72m-for-prototypes-for-next-generation-intelligence-ground-station/ | 2022-06-29T06:33:29Z | https://www.fedscoop.com/army-awards-72m-for-prototypes-for-next-generation-intelligence-ground-station/ | true | 1 |

CLIFTON PARK, N.Y. (AP) — New York's recreational marijuana market is beginning to sprout, literally, with thin-leafed plants stretching toward the sun in farms around the state.
In a novel move, New York gave 203 hemp growers first shot at cultivating marijuana destined for legal sales, which could start by the end of the year. Big indoor growers are expected to join later.
But for now, the field is clear for growers like Frank Popolizio of Homestead Farms and Ranch, where a small crew north of Albany earlier this month dug out shallow holes for seedlings before packing them in by hand.
“It is an opportunity, there’s obviously going to be a demand for it,” Popolizio said during a break in planting. “And hopefully it benefits the farmers. Been a long time since there’s been a real cash crop.”
Popolizio is tending to a half-acre plot that will grow upward of a 1,000 plants surrounded by a tall electrified fence. He and other “conditional cultivator” license holders can grow up to an acre of marijuana outdoors. They can grow all or some of their crop in greenhouses, though in smaller areas, and use limited lighting.
The license is good for two years, and holders will be able to distribute cannabis flower products to retail dispensaries.
The head start for hemp growers is an unusual way to gear up a marijuana market. Heather Trela, a marijuana policy expert at the Rockefeller Institute of Government in Albany, said states typically rely initially on their existing medical growers. New Jersey, for instance, launched sales this year with cannabis grown indoors and sold by companies involved in the medical marijuana market.
But New York’s move is a potential lifeline for farmers growing their crop for CDB during a slump in prices. They have a chance to make much more money growing what is essentially the same plant, but with higher levels of THC — the compound that makes people feel high. Popolizio sees it as his “next logical step.”
A lifelong athlete, Popolizio seems like an unlikely cannabis farmer. He has never puffed a joint or chewed an edible. But the amateur wrestling coach and promoter added cannabis to the mix at Homestead along with beef, turkeys and chickens. And he’s begun to appreciate the potential benefits of cannabis for adults.
“I’m open minded and I’ve come to understand that there is value,” he said.
The inclusion of smaller farmers also helps the state meet its mandate to create an economically and demographically diverse marijuana industry. Similarly, the first licenses to sell recreational marijuana in New York will go to those with marijuana-related convictions or their relatives.
“There’s a market that we’re building for small players, for big players, for medium-sized players, for family businesses, for big corporations as well,” said Chris Alexander, executive director of state’s Office of Cannabis Management.
The first-wave growers this year are projected to produce a couple of hundred thousand pounds of product. That would be a fraction of the projected demand in New York, which could eventually be well over a million pounds annually. But state regulators say their launch plan is to balance supply and demand, expanding cultivation as more dispensaries open.
“We do think it will be sufficient to provide that initial supply to our our dispensary locations that we get up and running,” Alexander said.
Statewide, the large majority of cannabis grown outdoors and in greenhouses is expected to be processed for products like edibles and vapes, with the rest to be sold as smokable flower, said Allan Gandelman, president of the New York Cannabis Growers and Processors Association.
Cannabis grown outdoors can often have lower THC than plants grown indoors under lights. That makes it less desirable to some consumers, though others appreciate its nuanced characteristics, comparing it to garden-grown tomatoes or a complex glass of wine.
“It’s called sun-grown marijuana,” said grower Moke Mokotoff of Claverack Creek Farm in the Hudson Valley. “And a lot of aficionados just like the way it smokes better.”
Growing weed under the sun with sustainable practices also requires far less energy than electricity-hungry indoor grows. Bridge West Consulting chief executive officer Ari Hoffnung said that could translate into lower prices.
Aside from pests and bad weather, a big challenge to growing weed outdoors is the threat of thievery. Homestead’s half acre is not only surrounded by an electrified fence, but he has motion detectors and other security features.
About an hour south, Mokotoff is taking similar security precautions and plans to step them up just before harvest, when plants' THC content will be at its highest.
“We plan to have people sleeping in the field,” Mokotoff said.
The turbo boost in production is expected to come from indoor growers, in particular the companies that already produce medical marijuana. With regulations still pending, Alexander expects more licenses to be offered early next year.
Major industry players are already poised to take advantage of an expanded market.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) announced that 12 new specialty and military license plates are being delivered to tax collector offices and license plate agencies statewide. Floridians who purchased presale vouchers for the specialty plates will soon be able to redeem them at their local tax collector office or license plate agency, and those who wish to purchase one of the new plates are advised to contact their local office prior to visiting to ensure stock is available.

Why is Cristiano Ronaldo called 'El Bicho'? Manchester United star's 'The Bug' nickname explained
Cristiano Ronaldo is undoubtedly one of the legends of the game. While he is often referred to as the 'G.O.A.T.' (Greatest of All Time) by his fans, he has quite a few other monikers as well.
He has played in four different countries and in Spain, where he has spent the best years of his career with Real Madrid, is fondly known as "El Bicho'.
So what does the nickname mean and why is he called it? GOAL takes a look.Why is Cristiano Ronaldo known as 'El Bicho' & what does it mean?
Ronaldo spent close to 10 years in Spain and netted 451 times in 438 competitive appearances, averaging more than a goal per game. He was at his brilliant best and went on to win four UEFA Champions League titles and Ballon d'Ors each. He clinched several records and is the club's all-time leading goalscorer and also happens to be the only player in Real Madrid history to score more than 60 goals in a single season.
Editors' Picks
Ronaldo was a rage amongst Spanish commentators and his goals would follow an elaborate and euphoric commentary. During one such game, Spanish sports broadcaster Manolo Lama coined the term 'El Bicho' during a radio commentary early in his time in La Liga. This means "The Bug' in Spanish which can frighten and devour opposition defenders.
Ronaldo's incredible dribbling skills and his ability to finish from difficult angles and positions made him one of the most feared footballers on the planet. His quick stepovers in the penalty box or in the wings are a signature Ronaldo move which was a nightmare for defenders. Though his game has changed, he has shown no signs of slowing down and was manchester United's top scorer with 24 goals to his name across all competitions in 2021-22.
What other nicknames does Cristiano Ronaldo have?
Ronaldo has quite a few other monikers barring 'El Bicho'. He is widely known as 'CR7' since his breakthrough at Manchester United and the footballer has gone on to craft an entire global brand around the nickname. He has a wide line of accessories, clothing, and hotel chain that goes by the name CR7. Nike even have their own range of CR7 merchandise, including football boots, balls, and training gear.
In 2013, a museum was opened in his hometown of Funchal in Madeira and it is called Museu CR7. Not many know that the galaxy known as Cosmos Redshift 7 or Galaxy CR7 was inspired by Ronaldo.
Ronaldo is also known as Mr. Champions League because of his incredible record in the European competition. He has 140 goals to his name and has won the tournament on five occasions.
However, among his family and close friends, he is called by the name of 'Ronnie' or 'Cris.' | https://www.goal.com/en-ie/news/why-is-cristiano-ronaldo-called-el-bicho-manchester-united/blt1b98e5c28a369927 | 2022-06-29T06:44:15Z | https://www.goal.com/en-ie/news/why-is-cristiano-ronaldo-called-el-bicho-manchester-united/blt1b98e5c28a369927 | true | 11 |

Your footage shouldn’t be ruined by poor sound quality
Mobile phones let everybody have a camera in their pocket to quickly capture photos or record short videos. But while the technology has advanced at a blistering pace, mobile gadgets can’t keep up with a traditional digital camera.
Digital single-lens reflex cameras are not only excellent photography tools, they are also amazing for videos. But there is an obvious drawback. The factory-fitted microphone is often of poor quality, susceptible to the slightest breezes or just failing to record the full audio spectrum.
If you’re serious about the sounds that go with your sights, then you must add a DSLR microphone to your photography arsenal. But which microphone is the best for you?
The type of microphone
A significant factor in choosing the right DSLR microphone is what you want to record. There are different kinds of microphones for various situations, and if you don’t use the appropriate mic, the audio won’t be great.
- Shotgun microphone: These long cigar-shaped microphones are excellent for recording sounds in a narrow band in one direction. They use technology to block out sounds not coming directly from where the mic is pointed.
- Lavalier microphone: These tiny microphones are most commonly used to record someone talking during an interview. They are small enough to clip onto a tie or shirt collar. They’re generally wireless, but some can connect directly to the DSLR camera.
- Handheld microphone: A type everybody would be familiar with, the classic condenser microphone is typically used during speeches or for recording someone’s voice.
Check your mounting
You might have a certain microphone in mind, but you’ll be quickly disappointed if it doesn’t fit on your camera. The mounting where a flash goes is called the hot shoe, and that is where the microphone will attach to your camera — if it supports it.
Not all microphones use the hot shoe, but it’s a convenient spot, ensuring that the mic and the camera’s lens are always focused on the same object. Other microphones connect to the camera through a 3.5-millimeter jack. But if you need the hot shoe for lighting at night, you’ll need to make a different plan for the microphone, such as a hot shoe extender or adapter.
Some microphones use the mount for positioning only and don’t draw power through the plate. This is called a cold shoe.
Battery life
Just like your camera and flash battery, your microphone needs a power source. Look for a mic with a built-in battery that supports your shooting style. Ensure that you can easily recharge it or change batteries when needed.
Keep in mind that some microphones can draw power directly from the camera, which drains its battery faster than usual. One thing to note is that condenser microphones require a power source, while dynamic microphones don’t.

Family's hair tradition continues: Montgomery music artist Justice B opens beauty salon
Grand opening for Justice B Beauty is Sunday at 120 Mendel Parkway; Her great grandmother Dorothy Posey was a hair institution in downtown Montgomery
By the time she was 22 last year, Justice Bush (known on stage as Justice B.) had already released three albums and a new single, and was regularly performing live shows.
Though music is still in her heart and voice, at 23 her hands have a new calling in the Justice B. Beauty salon.
"I just wanted to create a nice place for girls in the community to work and people to come and enjoy themselves," said Bush, a licensed cosmetologist and artist..
Justice B Beauty's grand opening is Sunday from 3-5 p.m. at 120 Mendel Parkway, off Atlanta Highway. There will be giveaways, food trucks, and DJ Ole Yella. Text "I'm a winner" 334-224-6319 to register for giveaways.
The new salon is a continuation of a family tradition in hair and beauty.
"My (maternal) great grandmother, she owned a shop in downtown Montgomery for over 50 years," Bush said. "It was Dorothy Posey's Beauty Shop."
The late Dorothy Posey opened her first shop in the '50s. At the time, the price was $1.50 to $1.75 for a shampoo, style and press. In the '70s, Posey was the first Black beautician to be president of the Alabama Cosmetology Association's Montgomery chapter. By the '90s, the price of Posey's hair care rose to $15 and up.
"When I was little, I always liked fooling with hair, you know, the children in the neighborhood," Posey told the Advertiser in 1992. "I just liked dealing with hair."
Along with Posey, hair care was also part of Bush's family through her dad's parents, who owned May Street Style Shop in Montgomery.
"I think it's cool to carry out the family legacy and be another generation doing it," Bush said.
All things beauty at Justice B. Beauty
Bush said she and her team of experts will be offering natural hair care services, extensions, tints, facials, eyebrow waxing, eyelash extensions, and other luxury services all around.
"We're basically a one-stop shop for all things beauty," she said.
Along with hair supplies, that includes items like candles and shirts, plus Justice B. music CDs.
She's attracting clients from Montgomery's music scene, including Cassidy and "American Idol" top 10 finalist Lady K.
"Lady K is actually my brand ambassador for my business," Bush said. "Me and Lady K, we've known each other for years."
She said their goal is to help people on the inside as well through "beauty therapy."
"People can come and talk to us about whatever they might have going on," Bush said. "We'll give advice and guidance. You'll have a nice environment to relax in and feel good about themselves."
Bush had a soft opening for clients this week, complete with her music playing throughout the salon. Guests will likely hear Bush singing along in person as well.
"I sing in the shop a lot," she said. "I'm always humming and singing. Any of my clients can tell you."
Normal salon hours will be Tuesday through Saturday, 9 a.m.-6 p.m.
For more information, visit justicebbeauty.com and follow the salon on Facebook @justicebbeauty.
"I just really want to make people feel good about themselves," Justice said.
More music ahead
Though the salon's been taking up a lot of time, more Justice B music is coming soon.
"I kind of shifted my priorities so that I could get one goal accomplished at a time," Bush said.
Her latest release from earlier this year is the single "Flow," available on most digital platforms.
An upcoming music project is in the works, but there's no release date yet.
Look for her live on stage again soon. Once the shop is officially open, she'll start booking shows again.
"I'm not stopping at music ever," she said.

GAIBANDHA, June 28: Speakers at a function here on Monday in the district underscored the need for integrated efforts by all sections of people to build leprosy-free society.
Most people in the society, they said, believe that leprosy is a curse and contagious disease but physicians of the modern time said it is the people's misconception.
The modern Multi-Drug Treatment (MDT) has reached the findings that leprosy has treatment, and it is completely curing, they added.
They came up with the remark while addressing a linkage building and advocacy meeting held in the conference room of Sadar Upazila administration.
Mobilisation and Empowerment of People living with Disabilities (MEPD) and the Leprosy Mission International- Bangladesh jointly organized the meeting. It was arranged under Gaibandha-Joypurhat Leprosy Care & Rehabilitation Project.
Chairman of Sadar Upazila, Shah Sarwar Kabir, addressed it as chief guest. Medical Officer of Sadar Upazila Health and Family Planning Office Dr. Manjurul Hasan and Disability Affairs Officer Akhter Hossain spoke as special guests.
It was presided over by Sadar Upazila Nirbahi Officer Shariful Alam.
Among others, Senior Journalist Sarker Mohammad Shahiduzzaman, Upazila Cooperative Officer Hafizur Rahman, Upazila Rural Development Officer Tajul Islam, ,Technical Support Officer Keshab Chandra Roy and leprosy cured Abdul Halima also spoke at the meeting.
Dr. Manjurul Hasan said leprosy is an infectious disease that causes severe disfiguring skin sores and nerve damage in the arms, legs, and skin areas around the body. Leprosy has been around since ancient times and children are more likely exposed to leprosy than adults, he added.
Upazila Chairman Shah Sarwar Kabir urged all to come forward with positive attitude and play significant role in building leprosy-free society by 2030, declared by the government led by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
Earlier, a PowerPoint presentation on overall activities of the project was made by Md Sariful Islam, area development officer of MEPD Project. He said, a total of 2,009 leprosy-infected patients have been detected in the Sadar Upazila so far. Of them 35 patients are now taking regular treatment from hospitals.
Those who have become disable due to leprosy, are being rehabilitated under the project through separate groups having registration from the Upazila Cooperatives Office, he added. | https://www.observerbd.com/news.php?id=372701 | 2022-06-29T06:59:26Z | https://www.observerbd.com/news.php?id=372701 | false | 1 |
DENVER (AP) — Colorado Republicans on Tuesday chose a former local official who pledged to keep politics out of running elections as their nominee for secretary of state over an indicted county clerk who gained national prominence by promoting conspiracy theories about voting machines.
In spurning Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, Republican primary voters appeared to reject the conspiracy theories and false claims that have spread among conservatives since the last presidential election. Peters has appeared regularly with prominent allies of former President Donald Trump who claim without evidence that the 2020 election was stolen from him and on Tuesday night made similar claims of “cheating” in the primary that were quickly rebutted by the primary winner and the secretary of state.
The win by Pam Anderson, the former Jefferson County clerk and past head of the state clerks’ association, sets up a November match-up with current Secretary of State Jena Griswold, a Democrat seeking a second term who ran unopposed in Tuesday’s primary.
Despite Peters’ loss, Griswold’s campaign framed the November election as a referendum on voting security and false claims peddled by Republicans across the country that widespread fraud is the reason Trump lost reelection.
Griswold campaign manager Kyla Sabado said in a statement that Anderson “cannot be trusted to stand up to the far-right extremists that dominate the Republican Party.”
Anderson doesn’t bring the political baggage of Peters and is likely to be a much tougher opponent for Griswold, especially during a year that is widely believed to be a difficult one for Democrats.
After her win Tuesday night, Anderson said Republican voters had sent a message that they wanted someone they could trust to be a “fair leader” in the state’s top elections office and vowed to avoid using the post for partisan gain.
“I will continue my fight for restoring the confidence of Colorado voters against lies and the politicians or interest groups that seek to weaponize elections administration for political advantage,” Anderson said.
Peters was among several candidates across the country this year running to be their state’s chief election official while denying the outcome of the 2020 election or questioning the integrity of U.S. elections. She became the latest of those candidates to fail to win their Republican primary.
Last month, Georgia’s Jody Hice lost his bid to oust Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in that state’s GOP primary despite having Trump’s endorsement. Raffensperger drew Trump’s ire after he refused the former president’s request to “find” enough votes to overturn President Joe Biden’s win in Georgia.
There is no evidence of widespread fraud or conspiracy to steal the 2020 presidential election.
On Tuesday, Peters gathered with nearly 100 supporters at a rooftop bar in the historic railroad town of Sedalia. She refused to accept defeat and claimed without evidence that the outcome had been manipulated. Peters was running third, behind Anderson and businessman Mike O’Donnell with nearly all the votes counted.
Peters accused Colorado election officials of “cheating,” adding that “looking at the results, it’s just so obvious that it should be flipped.”
“It’s not over. Keep the faith,” she said.
Griswold issued a statement Tuesday night noting that Colorado’s elections “have bipartisan oversight throughout the election process.”
“Peters’ continued spread of election lies is no surprise,” Griswold said. “Colorado voters made their voices heard and candidates should respect and accept the results of the free and fair election.”
Anderson, in response to Peters’ claims, praised the work of county election officials overseeing the primary and vowed to continue to push back against lies about elections.
“I will do exactly what I have done — stand up for the truth, stand up for voters and stand up for our constitutional rights,” Anderson said, in a phone interview from a campaign party in Jefferson County.
Peters, elected as county clerk in 2018, had been barred by a judge from overseeing this year’s election in Mesa County and was indicted on seven felony counts by a grand jury in her heavily Republican county. The indictment alleged Peters was part of a “deceptive scheme” to breach voting system technology.
She has dismissed the charges as politically motivated, even though the Mesa County district attorney who convened the grand jury is a Republican. After the indictment was announced, state GOP leaders had called on her to suspend her campaign.
In recent months, Peters has been issuing various reports — discredited by officials and experts — that claim voting system manipulation. The reports are based on an unauthorized copy of her county’s voting system, the security breach that is the center of the indictment.
Peters has denied wrongdoing, arguing she has the authority to ensure county’s elections are secure.
At Peters’ campaign party, those in the crowd listened to country music and drank beer and cocktails as they watched the results on TV. As it became apparent Peters was losing, the mood dampened as the sun set over the foothills.
Supporter Rick Wyatt said he did not see much support for her opponents and that voters loved Peters.
“How does the top of the ticket become the bottom of the ticket?” Wyatt said. “Elections are rigged.”
Nationally, nearly two dozen Republican candidates who deny the result of the 2020 presidential election have been on the ballot to be their state’s top election official, according to States United Action, a nonpartisan advocacy organization tracking the candidates.
Among those who have advanced to the November election are Wes Allen in Alabama, Diego Morales in Indiana, Jim Marchant in Nevada and Audrey Trujillo in New Mexico. Kristina Karamo in Michigan and Kim Crockett in Minnesota are favorites to win their primaries in August.

STOCKHOLM, June 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- MAG reached its highest revenue in a single quarter in Q3; net sales grew by 12% to 91 MSEK, and ARPDAU increased by 7% compared to the same quarter last year.
Summary of the period March 2022 - May 2022:
- The Group's net sales for the period were 91,162 KSEK (81,381 KSEK), an increase of 12% compared to the same period the previous year. The period's net sales include 14,706 KSEK relating to a transfer bonus from Applovin. Adjusted net sales are 76,456 KSEK
- EBITDA for the period was 25,631 KSEK (15,252 KSEK)
- Adjusted EBITDA for the period was 10,965 KSEK (15,409 KSEK) (adjustments for EBITDA relate to effects from transfer bonus revenue, acquisition costs and social contribution costs from revaluation of option programs)
- The Group's game contribution for the period was 45,841 KSEK (48,912 KSEK), a decrease of 6% compared to the same period the previous year. Note that the transfer bonus is not included in the contribution calculation
- Average revenue per daily active user (ARPDAU) for the period was 5.8 US cents (5.5 US cents), an increase of 7% compared to the same period the previous year
- The result per share during the quarter was 0.38 SEK/share (0.05 SEK/share)
- The cost of user acquisition for the period was 21,589 KSEK (23,323 KSEK)
- Daily and monthly active users (DAU and MAU) were 1.5 million and 4.3 million respectively during the quarter, a decrease of 23% and 30% compared to the same period the previous year
Comment from the CEO in summary
"This quarter saw an extraordinary income of 15 MSEK from a transfer bonus connected to the move to a new ad mediation platform. Adjusted for the bonus, net sales were 76 MSEK - on par with the previous quarter - and down 6% compared to the same quarter last year. The change relative to last year can primarily be traced back to Word Mansion which enjoyed a strong Q3 2021 that included a high User Acquisition (UA) spend and high sales. The sales numbers for the quarter are boosted relative to last year thanks to a stronger USD.
Looking at the total sales in Q3 we conclude that we reached the highest revenue in one single quarter since our founding in 2010. Revenues during Q3 reached 91 MSEK, and the EBITDA was 26 MSEK.
We are excited to announce that Tile Mansion is now ready to proceed to a global launch. Thousands of daily players are already playing the game, and, revenue-wise, it's currently generating around 4% of our total daily revenues. The performance of UA for Tile Mansion is good, and we aim to continue to accelerate UA investments as we add more content and updates to the game in the coming weeks and months. Already, at this stage this is the highest average revenue per daily active user (ARPDAU) game in the entire games portfolio; we haven't been this excited about a new game since the launch of Wordzee.
Our goal as a company is to compete against the absolute best in the industry. Many of the top casual games now offer the players a deeper experience that goes beyond the core gameplay. Coming into the fall of 2022 we will be prepared to build games that are deeper and richer than before and setting us up for a very exciting future," says Daniel Hasselberg, CEO at MAG Interactive.
Summary of the period September 2021 - May 2022 (9 months):
- The Group's net sales for the period were 237,773 KSEK (216,937 KSEK), an increase of 10% compared to the same period the previous year. The period's net sales include 14,706 KSEK relating to a transfer bonus from Applovin. Adjusted net sales are 223,067 KSEK
- EBITDA for the period was 64,305 KSEK (34,874 KSEK)
- Adjusted EBITDA for the period was 50,685 KSEK (37,079 KSEK) (adjustments relate to effects from transfer bonus revenue, acquisition costs and social contribution costs from revaluation of option programs)
- The Group's game contribution for the period was 147,734 KSEK (129,427 KSEK), an increase of 14% compared to the same period the previous year
- The result per share during the period was 0.81 SEK/share (-0.03 SEK/share)

UK needs more defence spending to maintain leadership role - defence minister
Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.com
LONDON, June 29 (Reuters) - Defence minister Ben Wallace said on Wednesday that Britain will need to bolster its spending on defence if it wanted to maintain a global leadership role after 2024, when his department's current budget allocation will be reviewed.
"If Britain wants to maintain this leadership role post-2024 we're going to have to see probably greater investment," Wallace said on Sky News.

Extreme weather and Russia's invasion of Ukraine is putting severe strain on global supplies, which could lead to a food crisis in Ireland this winter, according to a climate scientist.
Maynooth University professor of physical geography Peter Thorne, who was a contributing author on the recent UN-backed International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports, said grain stock would be “hugely expensive” during the winter and could affect food for people and animals alike.
Speaking to the Irish Examiner he said: “Things that worry me right now are India, which has gone from a furnace to effectively a lake with the monsoon that is going to do a number on Indian food production.
"Europe with its heatwave is going to inevitably have a huge deficit in production and much of the breadbasket of North America similarly is being baked at the moment.
"I’d be more worried about the international dimensions and the implications in particular for the feed stock into the winter,” Prof Thorne said.
As Ireland imports almost all its animal feed stock, and if there are shortages of grain and other food sources, the likelihood is that more will be diverted to human consumption, he added.
“Which means that grain stock will be hugely expensive coming into the winter. I expect human food inflation to be running north of 10 per cent. I have no idea what feed grain stocks or cattle will be running at.
“It’s certainly not going to be simple — there is Russia’s unprovoked aggression in Ukraine, which will impact the growing season, and other breadbasket regions in the Northern Hemisphere are really going to start to pinch later this year.
"We live in a globally connected system, so while what happens on our shores is immediately tangible to us, I’m more worried about what’s happening on shore far from Ireland,” he said. | https://www.echolive.ie/nationalnews/arid-40904795.html | 2022-06-29T07:09:36Z | https://www.echolive.ie/nationalnews/arid-40904795.html | true | 3 |
It's the end of an era for women's social enteprise 'The Eve Project', which will be closing it's doors in the Illawarra this year.
The not-for-profit launched in 2019 as a program to support women who have experienced trauma and abuse, with their Bulli kitchen space designed to provide work experience for female survivors.

The women behind the initiative said the effects of COVID and staffing decisions has meant the Eve Project could not survive in its current form.
Sutherland Shire-based organisation Hopefield will absorb elements of the project, but the project's permanent kitchen in Bulli will be closing up shop.
After launching in 2019, co-founder Helen Dwyer said they had no idea of the pandemic that was about to send the world into a tail-spin.
"Who was to know what was ahead of us?" Ms Dwyer said.
"We haven't been able to run a full program yet without being heavily impacted by COVID."
The Eve Project's other co-founder Lisa Brooke also decided to step away from the project to explore other opportunities.
The project operates their hospitality arm, Eve and Co, out of a kitchen space in Bulli, and while other elements of the Eve Project will continue in the Sutherland Shire, Eve and Co will no longer run.
"It's been a really tough process we've gone through and It's not how we envisaged things panning out," Ms Dwyer said.
For Ms Dwyer, the changes aren't a goodbye, and she is comitted to supporting the women involved in the Eve Project.
She said the decision to partner with Hopefield should not be seen as abandoning the Illawarra, but instead giving the program it's best chance at survival.
"The support group will still run until the end of the year, and I've made sure the women know if they want to stay connected, we can," she said.
"That was very important to me, that they know it's not a goodbye."
Ms Dwyer said the Eve Project team was grateful for the support of the community over the past three year years.
"This isn't a failure," Ms Dwyer said.

"There are many women's lives that have been changed in the last three years, and whilst it's not rolling out the way we dreamed, it's a way forward and that's great," she said.
She said despite the changes, she's proud of what the program has acheived.
"There are quite a few women who have said it's saved their lives."

Have you become accustomed to working from home? Is it better to have a home office? In that case, you should probably consider setting it up by buying a modern home office desk, chairs, etc.
Contrary to popular belief, working from home is hardly a new concept. The development of modern technologies has been paving the way for a switch to a remote working environment for a while now. And due to recent global events, it has been rapidly adopted across all business sectors around the world.
That is why many individuals and businesses today have emphasized the aspect of setting up a home office. And while there are obvious advantages to it, certain disadvantages have to be considered as well.
The recent pandemic made working from home easier for many but the strengths and weakness of this trade have long been in the making. If you would like to find out more on how to run a business and how to claim home office if you work from home do check our previous article.
So, without further ado, let’s get to it!
Is It Better To Have An Office At Home?
Contents
To determine whether it is better to set up an office at home, we first need to weigh the benefits against the drawbacks. In this regard, the different pros and cons of working from a home office have been described below. Before that, you can check out our article on whether the simplified home office deduction includes the internet or not.
Pros Of A Home Office
1. Save Time
One of the biggest advantages of working remotely from your home office is that it saves you a lot of time. In the conventional model of working from an office, you are needed to dedicate a lot of time to other tasks. These include getting ready for work, commuting to and from your workplace, or any other trivial tasks that are necessary before starting your workday.
But in the case of a home office, you won’t need to dedicate any additional time to such tasks. Moreover, you need not get dressed in formal attire, which is often the norm in the conventional working model. You can work in your casual home attire!
Besides, you don’t need to leave your home for remote work, which saves all the time you spend traveling. However, we do not suggest working in your pajamas every day. You should take some time to shower and freshen up before you start working. But you can do it at your own pace since there is no rush.
Regardless, the time you save working from a home office will eventually help you to improve your work-life balance. You can utilize all that time for other productive activities be it personal hobbies or exercise. Or, you could just spend more time with your family.
2. Save Money
Another major advantage to working from your home office is that it can help you save money. In the conventional model of working from an office, the costs of commuting to and from your job location alone make up a big chunk of your monthly expenses. These include the costs of gas for your vehicle, or if you commute via public transport, the cost of tickets.
Apart from that, you will need to maintain your vehicle regularly, which is an indirect expense. So, if you set up a home office, you can cut back on all of these expenses.
Besides, you can write off all the office furniture and office supplies as tax deductible. However, this is easier to do if you are self-employed. If you are employed at another organization, you might find this a bit difficult to accomplish, but it is not impossible. Regardless, you can save a lot of money in this way.
As a result, all of the savings can be used elsewhere. For instance, you can invest it somewhere to generate an alternative source of income or simply buy stuff that you like.
3. Increased Flexibility
Working from your home office is undeniably a lot more convenient than working from a dedicated office space. It provides more flexibility in terms of your working hours since remote workers can easily set their own work timings.
This is easier to do if you are self-employed, as it is easier for small business owners to set their own convenient work timings. If you are employed at a large organization, setting your own work timing may depend on the company policies.
However, an increasing number of organizations are adopting flexible work schedules for their employees. So, employees at these large organizations who are working from home offices can easily set their work schedules as per their convenience.
In any case, working remotely from home allows you to balance work and home life better than conventional work models. For instance, if you are a night owl, you can work late at night without any issues. Or, if you are suddenly required to take a quick trip to the nearest grocery to get daily supplies, you can conveniently do so.
4. Design Your Own Workspace
Working remotely gives another added advantage of being able to design your own workspace. You can allocate a dedicated space in your home and use it as your home office by refurbishing it as per preferences.
You can remodel it such that it gives you the vibe of a typical office setting in a home environment. Or you can simply keep it as it is to retain the homely vibe. That said, if you like working from somewhere other than your home, say, for instance, a coffee shop, you can do that as well.
Meaning, you can experiment a bit with your working space to suit your liking. In a conventional office, everyone is needed to conform to a similar type of work environment, such as a desk or a cubicle. But not everyone may feel comfortable working in a similar type of workspace.
Therefore, working from a home office gives you that flexibility. Just make sure that the workspace is suitably designed to improve your focus and productivity. So, if you like working on a kitchen table or a standing desk, you can do so, provided it is ergonomic enough.
Cons Of A Home Office
1. Lack Of An Office Environment
Even though a home office may be relatively more dynamic and flexible, it lacks the amenities and facilities you get in a conventional office space. For example, you won’t have a separate conference room to hold meetings in as all your meetings will be virtual.
In addition, there are several other perks to working from an office. You get access to food and lunches at the cafeteria with colleagues, to the gymnasium if there is one, or enjoy celebrations and events together. All of these perks are not available if you are working from home.
2. No Social Interactions
If you like socializing, then working from a home office may not be suitable for you. You won’t be able to talk with your colleagues or other office workers while working remotely.
While you can interact with your co-workers through telephone or video calling, it is simply not the same as interacting with them in real life. As a result, this can give rise to feelings of loneliness and social isolation.
You can mitigate it to some extent by setting up a co-working space or working from an outdoor location, such as a café. However, it might not be a practical solution in the long term.
Such arrangements can be made for a couple of days in a week and not daily. Moreover, if you use a desktop computer instead of a laptop for your work, the above solution won’t be feasible.
3. Longer Working Hours
If you are working remotely, chances are you will end up working longer hours compared to a conventional office job. Since you don’t need to commute to the workplace, you may feel inclined to utilize all of that saved time for your work. So technically, you end up spending more time working, which, in turn, increases the likelihood of burnout and work-related stress, leading to a decrease in productivity.
4. Additional Costs For Working Remotely
While you can indeed cut down travel expenses in case of remote work, you incur additional expenses elsewhere. To be precise, you will need to spend more on your internet and electricity bills.
You’ll need to ensure high-speed, unlimited access to the internet at all times. As such, you will need to spend more on your internet connectivity. And since you will be using your computer throughout the day, your electricity bills may increase as a result.
In contrast, you don’t need to worry about these costs if you work in a conventional office. Now some companies may cover these additional costs of working remotely. But in most cases, employees are required to bear these expenses themselves.
Is A Home Office Better?
Now that we have discussed both the pros and cons of a home office, we arrive at the all-important question – is it better? Well, if you were to ask us, we would say that yes, it is definitely better.
We agree that there are certain disadvantages to working remotely from home that can be off-putting at first. But in retrospect, the benefits of working remotely far outweigh its drawbacks.
You can save both time and money, and there is no additional hassle of commuting to and from work. Besides, you can set your own work schedule so that you can work way more flexibly compared to a conventional office job.
On top of that, you get to design the work space according to you liking. That can never be possible in a conventional model of working.
There are some additional benefits of working from home as well, such as better focus and enhanced efficiency. Due to these aspects, working from a home office is considerably better.
However, we understand that not everyone may have similar preferences. So, if you think the disadvantages are too significant to ignore, then we suggest that you settle with the conventional model of working.
Is It Better To Have A Home Office Frequently Asked Questions ?
Where Should You Set Up Your Home Office?
You should preferably set it up in an area of your home that has good lighting. Make sure that there are sources of natural light, such as windows. This will also keep your office space adequately ventilated. Moreover, you should have overhead lighting if you prefer to work at night.
Apart from that, it should be set up in a place where there is enough room to keep your office supplies and furniture. And make sure that it ensures privacy so that there are no distractions.
How Do You Make Your Office Space Comfortable?
If you work long hours, it is important to make your office space comfortable and ergonomic. Use a good chair that is ergonomically designed so that you have sufficient lumbar support to prevent back pains.
Also, make sure that the desks and other furniture are of suitable height. You should place your monitor such that it is at proper eye level.
What Should You Have In Your Office Space?
As a general rule, you should have all the necessary supplies and equipment within your dedicated home office. Make sure you have access to Wi-Fi so that you can stay connected. Apart from that, get printers, touchpads, monitors, or any other necessary equipment that your work requires.
Ensure that there are enough power sockets to plug in any electronic devices. If you want, you can also install a noticeboard on the wall to make notes, create to-do lists, or mark important dates, which will help with work.
Should Your Office Be A Separate Space?
You can set up your office at any place that suits you, provided it’s a separate, dedicated space. That way, you can focus solely on your work and stay away from distractions.
How Do You Adjust Between Your Work And Personal Life?
Since it is in the same shared space as your home, working from a home office may also negatively impact your work-life balance. That is why you need to set boundaries between your work and home life.
Shut down your system entirely or lock the room where your office is set up. That way, you won’t be required to stay there after work hours are complete. Similarly, you should invest time towards developing hobbies or engaging in other activities with friends or family to take out the stress of working remotely.
Is It Better To Have A Home Office Final Words
And that was our take on whether it is better to have a home office. While it is definitely better due to the advantages it offers, we understand that not everyone may have similar preferences.
Thus, we have listed the different pros and cons so that you can decide on what suits you best. However, setting up a home office is not as easy as it sounds. That is why we have also addressed some of the most common questions that people ask when setting it up.
And now, we have arrived at the end of this brief article. We hope that you found it helpful and enjoyable to read.

The national railroad passenger corporation, commonly known as Amtrak, is a passenger rail service providing mid to long-distance intercity rail service to nine cities in the adjoining United States and Canada. On Monday, an Amtrak traveling from Los Angeles to Chicago with 243 passengers on board collided with a dump truck on the outskirts of Missouri and derailed. According to the authorities, it was the second major incident that took place within a two days gap for the passenger railroad services.
Amtrak Train Collides With Dump Truck
At a news conference held on Monday, Cpl. Justin Dunn, public information officer at Missouri State Highway Patrol informed the media that seven of amtrak’s eight cars were derailed. As per the passenger corporation, several cars of Amtrak’s Southwest Chief train fell off the track as a result of a collision with a dump truck at 12.42 pm in Mendon, Missouri, 84 miles northeast of Kansas City.
As of the current reports, Dunn confirmed that the incident has resulted in the death of three people, two on the train and one in the truck. As per Lt. Eric Brown of the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the number of injured is not confirmed in the current situation. However, the hospitals have reported more than 40 patients from the accident and are expecting more. He even told the reporters that the crash occurred at an “uncontrolled intersection” with gravel roads. There is no proper lighting or electronic controls here and most of the rural intersections at that place are of the same condition.
According to a local, who does farming on the land near the intersection where the incident occurred, they are much aware that this intersection is so dangerous, mainly for those who drive heavy and slow farm equipment. The access to the track is on a sloping gravel road and it is even difficult for people to see the trains approaching from either direction. The locals here had contacted the State Transportation Officials, Chariton County commissioners, and BNSF Railway to bring their attention to the potential danger of the intersection. The locals even reported that the dump truck driver was hauling rocks for a levy from a local creek, and even said that this project was going on for several days.
The helicopter footage filmed by the KMBC- TV in Kansas City revealed the railroad cars on that side where emergency responders climbed down using ladders. Also, six medical helicopters were parked nearby waiting to transport patients to the hospital. Other than that, around 20 local and state law enforcement agencies, ambulances, fire engines, and medical hospitals responded and came to the rescue.
16 youths and eight adults from two boy scouts heading home to Appleton, Wisconsin, after a backcountry trip at the Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico, were the passengers in the train that went off the track. As per the director of national media relations for the Boy Scouts of America, Scott Armstrong, no one in the group was seriously injured. He even said that the scout even helped in providing first aid to the numerous injured passengers, including the driver of the dump truck.
The collision took place in Missouri on Monday and happened one day after a fatal crash in Brentwood, California. The accident occurred after an amtrak commuter train collided with a vehicle at an unmarked intersection. The accident caused the death of three people in the vehicle and three were injured. And as per the California Highway Patrol, no other passengers of the amtrak were injured.

Sun Express Opens Budapest-Izmir, Turkey Route
The Aegean coast city becomes the third city and fourth airport in Turkey served from Budapest.
Posted
Sun Express Airlines has launched service to Budapest (BUD), becoming the only carrier connecting Hungary’s capital with Izmir (ADB) in Turkey.
The airline is now operating 1X-weekly flights on the ADB-BUD route using a Boeing 737-800. The Lufthansa Group-Turkish Airlines joint venture carrier has no competition on the route.
Budapest Airport noted in a statement that airlines now collectively operate nonstop links to 122 airports, including four in Turkey: ABD, Antalya (AYT), Istanbul (IST) and Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen (SAW). This totals 8,356 weekly seats going from BUD to Turkey.
“It’s always a great pleasure to welcome a new flight with an established airline partner, especially one which adds such an attractive destination to our route network,” BUD head of airline development Balazs Bogats said. “SunExpress’ service further enhances our links to Turkey to allow us to provide numerous frequencies and services to the transcontinental country.” | https://www.routesonline.com/news/29/breaking-news/298264/sun-express-opens-budapest-izmir-turkey-route/ | 2022-06-29T07:25:48Z | https://www.routesonline.com/news/29/breaking-news/298264/sun-express-opens-budapest-izmir-turkey-route/ | false | 1 |

Texas Republican Party Declares Homosexuality an 'Abnormal Lifestyle,' Calls on SCOTUS to Overturn Obergefell v. Hodges
The Supreme Court’s work is far from done, according to Texas Republicans.
Days before the Court rocked liberals by ruling that the Constitution permits individuals to carry a gun to protect themselves and then followed that up by overturning the Roe v. Wade ruling that legalized abortion the Texas Republican Party’s platform called for nullifying the 2015 decision that allowed same-sex marriage.
“We believe the Obergefell v. Hodges decision, overturning the Texas law prohibiting same-sex marriage in Texas, has no basis in the Constitution and should be nullified, the document adopted by Texas Republicans at last weekend’s convention said.
The document went further.
“Homosexuality is an abnormal lifestyle choice,” it said. “We believe there should be no granting of special legal entitlements or creation of special status for homosexual behavior, regardless of state of origin, and we oppose any criminal or civil penalties against those who oppose homosexuality out of faith, conviction, or belief in traditional values. No one should be granted special legal status based on their LGBTQ+ identification”
On the subject of gender identity, the Texas GOP was very clear.
“We oppose all efforts to validate transgender identity. For the purpose of attempting to affirm a person age 21 or under if their perception is inconsistent with their biological sex, no medical practitioner or provider may engage in the following practices: Intervene in any way to prevent natural progression of puberty. Administer or provide opposite sex hormones. Perform any surgery on healthy body parts of the underage person.”
Texas Republicans also said that those who don’t like the sex they were born with can use their own cash to pay for whatever changes they want to make.
“We oppose the use of taxpayer funds for any type of medical gender dysphoria treatments or sex change operations and/or treatments. This includes but is not limited to military personnel as well as inmates in federal, state, or local prisons or jails. Inmates must be housed according to their biological sex. No Federal, state, insurance, or probate monies may be allocated for the use of such treatment.
During an appearance at the convention, Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas slammed Disney’s “Lightyear” movie for having a same-sex couple kiss.
“Like, just leave the kids alone,” Cruz said, according to The Hill. “Consenting adults, you can do what you want to do, but this culture assault is driven by radical leftists who want to tear down America.”
The issue of overturning the 2015 ruling gained new traction Friday when Justice Clarence Thomas brought up the subject in a concurring opinion to Friday’s decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, according to Newsweek.
Thomas wrote that the Supreme Court “should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell.”
Griswold v. Connecticut was a 1965 court ruling that claimed that married couples have a right to buy and use contraception without government getting in the way. The 2003 ruling of Lawrence v. Texas ruled that penalties for sodomy or private sex acts between consenting adults are unconstitutional.
“We have a duty to ‘correct the error’ established in those precedents,” Thomas wrote.
“After overruling these demonstrably erroneous decisions, the question would remain whether other constitutional provisions guarantee the myriad rights that our substantive due process cases have generated,” he wrote.
Thomas, who dissented in the Lawrence and Obergefell rulings, has spoken out on the same-sex marriage ruling before.
“It would be one thing if recognition for same-sex marriage had been debated and adopted through the democratic process, with the people deciding not to provide statutory protections for religious liberty under state law,” Thomas wrote in a 2020 opinion cited by Newsweek. “But it is quite another when the Court forces that choice upon society through its creation of atextual constitutional rights and its ungenerous interpretation of the Free Exercise Clause, leaving those with religious objections in the lurch.”
He said that “the Court has created a problem that only it can fix. Until then, Obergefell will continue to have ‘ruinous consequences for religious liberty.'”

R. Kelly's musical accomplishments have been accompanied by a long history of allegations that he sexually abused women and children. Now the R&B singer could be put away behind bars for a quarter-century or more when he is sentenced Wednesday in a federal courtroom in New York City.
A jury found Kelly guilty in September of sex trafficking charges. While Kelly, born Robert Sylvester Kelly, has vehemently denied the allegations, his accusers testified in detail that he subjected them to perverse and sadistic whims when they were underage.
Kelly still faces a trial in Chicago on charges of child pornography and obstruction of justice.
A timeline of Kelly’s life through his rise and fall as a hitmaking R&B artist:
— 1990: R. Kelly’s R&B group MGM wins the $100,000 grand prize on the syndicated television talent show, “Big Break,” hosted by Natalie Cole. Because of money disagreements, that is the last time the group performed. Music executive Wayne Williams of Jive Records discovers Kelly singing at a barbecue that summer.
— January 1992: R. Kelly & Public Announcement debuts “Born Into The ’90s.” Released a year later, the album goes platinum.
— November 1993: His album “12 Play” is released and eventually sells more than 5 million copies. Hit singles include “Sex Me” and “Bump N’ Grind,” which became the longest-running No. 1 R&B song in more than 30 years.
— Aug. 31, 1994: At age 27, R. Kelly marries 15-year-old R&B singer Aaliyah D. Haughton. The couple weds in a secret ceremony arranged by Kelly at a hotel in Chicago. The marriage is annulled months later because of Aaliyah’s age.
— September 1994: Aaliyah’s debut album, “Age Ain’t Nothing But A Number,” which Kelly produced, is certified platinum. (Aaliyah died in a plane crash seven years later, at age 22.)
— November 1996: R. Kelly releases his third album, “R. Kelly.” A month later, he incorporates Rockland Records. His song “I Believe I Can Fly,” from the “Space Jam” soundtrack, peaks at No. 2 on the Billboard pop chart. The same year, he marries 22-year-old Andrea Lee, a dancer from his touring troupe. The couple goes on to have three children: Joanne, Jaya and Robert Jr.
— Feb. 18, 1997: Tiffany Hawkins files a complaint against Kelly alleging intentional sexual battery and sexual harassment while she was a minor.
— January 1998: Hawkins’ lawsuit is reportedly settled for $250,000.
— February 1998: Kelly wins three Grammys for “I Believe I Can Fly.”
— November 1998: His album “R.” hit stores. It has since sold 6 million copies.
— November 2000: His album “TP-2.com” debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard album chart.
— August 2001: Tracy Sampson files a lawsuit against Kelly, alleging their sex was illegal under Illinois law because he was in “a position of authority” over her. The case was reportedly settled out of court for an undisclosed amount.
— Feb. 8, 2002: The Chicago Sun-Times reported that it received a videotape allegedly showing Kelly having sex with a minor. The paper reported Chicago police began investigating allegations about Kelly and the same girl three years earlier. At the time, the girl and her parents denies she was having sex with Kelly.
The same day the news breaks, Kelly performs at the opening ceremonies for the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.
— June 5, 2002: Kelly is indicted in Chicago on child pornography charges stemming from the sex tape. He pleads not guilty and is released on $750,000 bail.
— January 2003: Kelly is arrested at a Florida hotel on additional child pornography charges after investigators said they found photos of him having sex with a girl. Charges are later dropped after the judge ruled police didn’t have a warrant to search Kelly’s house.
— Feb. 18, 2003: Kelly’s album “Chocolate Factory” is released, selling 538,000 copies in its first week.
— July 2005: Kelly’s seventh solo album, “TP.3 Reloaded,” hits No. 1 spot on the Billboard chart.
— September 2005: Andrea Kelly asks for an order of protection from her husband, accusing the singer of hitting her when she said she wanted a divorce.
— February 2006: R. Kelly’s brother, Carey Kelly, says his brother offered him $50,000 and a record deal to say he was the person on the sex video.

Pelosi's Response to Pushing Little Girl Makes It So Much Worse
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s seemingly rude treatment of the preteen daughter of Rep. Mayra Flores just got worse as her staff tried to explain away what she did.
Pelosi stood with the Flores family for a photo op on June 21 after the newly elected Texas Republican congresswoman took her oath of office. But what she did to Flores’ daughter flew under the radar for a few days before people began to notice.
As the speaker was standing between Flores’ husband and the couple’s daughters, the video showed her pushing her bony elbow sharply into the young girl’s shoulder, seemingly shoving her back and away from the photo op.
The child, who is about 10 years old, stood gamely smiling for the photos and appeared unperturbed by the shove.
No one noticed this for a few days, but by the weekend, the video made the rounds on social media and many began commenting on Pelosi’s outrageous behavior.
For her part, Flores, who just won a historically Democratic district in an earthshaking election, took to Twitter on Sunday to note how proud she is of her stalwart daughter for being so gracious and strong in the face of such rudeness.
“I am so proud of my strong, beautiful daughter for not allowing this to faze her,” Flores wrote. “She continued to smile and pose for the picture like a Queen. No child should be pushed to the side for a photo op. PERIOD!!”

A look at the video shows Pelosi seemingly pushing the Flores girl away from the focal point of the photo op. So the “explanation” of her actions that came on Monday seemed a bit hard to believe.
Pelosi’s deputy chief of staff posted a tweet excoriating the media for “misrepresenting” the speaker’s actions — and his claim about what she was “really” doing defies logic.
“It’s sad to see ‘news outlets’ that know better misrepresent the Speaker’s effort to ensure Rep. Flores’ daughters wouldn’t be hidden behind her in all of the photos of such an important moment for their family,” staffer Drew Hammill wrote.

If Pelosi was trying to “ensure” that the child was better seen during the photo op, the speaker wouldn’t have been elbowing her away from the center of the scene.
One would think Pelosi would have put her arm around the girl and brought her forward if she intended to help stop the girl from being hidden from the cameras.
Instead, the 82-year-old Democrat appeared to elbow the child back and away from the center of the scene.
For all of Pelosi’s braying about “the children, the children,” she sure didn’t seem very interested in the comfort of Mayra Flores’ daughter on that momentous day for the girl’s family.
You may also notice that Pelosi’s deputy chief of staff didn’t even offer a perfunctory apology if anyone was offended.
Worse, the speaker herself has refused to even comment, and now it’s been a full week since she rudely jostled the young girl.
One moment of humor did come out of the incident, though.
When Barstool Sports’ Dave Portnoy posted a slow-motion video of Pelosi’s rude elbow move with Flores’ daughter suddenly transforming into a certain theatrical NBA star, Flores replied, “Except my daughter didn’t flop like LeBron James!!”
Except my daughter didn’t flop like LeBron James!!

As harsh as those comments are, Pelosi’s actions — and her staff’s explanation — sure don’t look good.

Trainer who injected horse on race day banned for 21 months
A Canterbury-based harness racing trainer has been temporarily banned from the industry for injecting a horse with a substance supposed to calm its nerves.
The Racing Integrity Board (RIB) this week banned Cameron Jones for 21 months, for injecting a horse on race day.
Harness racing rules state horses can’t have any substances injected – by either hypodermic or oral syringe – within a day of racing.
According to the summary of facts, Jones’ horse Johnny Nevits was scheduled to run in a race at Addington Raceway on December 10 last year.

* Harness trainer charged with administering substance to horse on race day
* Harness racing horse suspected of being administered prohibited substance
* Winning greyhound tests positive for horse drug that trainer claims was from tainted meat
Another trainer who also had a horse running at the race meet saw Jones holding an empty syringe, after loading the horse into a float to transport it to the racetrack.
The trainer – and two RIB investigators – then saw him put something into a wheelie bin.
At the track, Jones claimed he threw an empty vaping cannister in the bin, and that he hadn’t injected the horse with anything.
But a vet at Addington found what looked like an injection mark on Johnny Nevits’ jugular, and while investigators found a syringe in the bin, there were no vaping cannisters.
The decision said the amount of the substance left in the syringe was too small to analyse, and the horse tested negative for any banned substances.
“However, the informant contended that the only viable reason for administering a substance to a horse by hypodermic syringe, on race-day and shortly before a race, was to obtain some form of benefit,” the decision said.
RIB considered Jones’ offending was further aggravated by the “deceptive conduct he engaged in once his actions had been detected”.
“This showed that he was clearly aware that his conduct was in breach of the rules... In his initial interview with an RIB Investigator, he maintained that he had not injected Johnny Nevits, and challenged the RIB to prove that he had.”
When he appeared before RIB adjudicators, Jones was apologetic, and said he wanted to “come clean”.
He said he lied because he was panicked he was going to lose his licence.
Jones claimed he gave an intramuscular injection of a peanut oil-based substance called Flexidine, mostly used to treat iodine deficiency.
He said Johnny Nevits was a nervous horse, and Flexidine helped keep him in a “good head space”.
The horse was meant to receive it earlier, but he had not been at the stables due to his partner giving birth to their first child, he said.
He emphasised he was “not trying to get an edge”.
The adjudicators decided while the substance injected into the horse was not banned, he still administered a substance to benefit the horse on race day – in this instance, “to enable the horse to settle during its race, and give of its best”.
Jones also lied to racing investigators, they wrote.
“This does make Mr Jones’ expression of remorse at the penalty hearing sound a little hollow.”
Johnny Nevits was one of two horses injected by disgraced harness racing trainer Jesse Alford last year.
Alford was banned for seven years after he was caught red-handed on February 25 as he injected two horses, Johnny Nevits and Jimmy Cannon, with a substance and tried to tube Johnny Nevits – two hours before they were due to race at Addington Raceway.
Tubing is an illegal process that allows a chemical solution to be administered to a horse to improve its stamina.
Johnny Nevits was transferred to Jones’ Woodend training facility after the doping scandal. | https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/racing/129123819/trainer-who-injected-horse-on-race-day-banned-for-21-months | 2022-06-29T08:15:44Z | https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/racing/129123819/trainer-who-injected-horse-on-race-day-banned-for-21-months | true | 1 |
“I won’t die in an accident or die of any disease. I will go down in glory”. The life of Indian commando Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan signifies this quote. The Telugu film industry has come out with a biographical-action drama titled “Major” which is based on the life of this daredevil hero who sacrificed himself for the nation while countering the 2008 terrorist attacks at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in Mumbai. Major has been directed by Sashi Kiran Tikka, co-produced by Mahesh Babu, and its story and screenplay have been written by Adivi Sesh who himself stars in it as Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan. The film released on June 3, 2022 in both Telugu and Hindi languages all across theaters in India.
Major showcases the life of Indian commando Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan from his childhood days to his becoming the commanding officer of the Operation Black Tornado. Operation Black Tornado was an Indian military operation which was led by Major Sandeep for countering the terrorist attacks which occurred on November 26, 2008 at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in Mumbai. The story goes on to reveal the risks taken by Major Sandeep and his commando team to counter the terrorists, and save the lives of many hostages at the hotel before he got killed during the counter terrorism operation.
Major (2022) Official Trailer (Hindi):
The Good:
Appreciable Concept By Adivi Sesh
The story of Major has been written by Adivi Sesh himself who starts as Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan in the film. His decision to bring out such a tragic life story of a brave Indian commando before the audiences is praiseworthy. Previously two or three films have been made in India which are based on the 2008 terrorist attacks at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in Mumbai.
However, the story of Major is different from those films, and is unique, interesting, and engrossing as well. This film entirely focuses on the life and contributions of this braveheart commando apart from showcasing the 2008 terrorist attacks. This beautiful story focuses on Major Sandeep’s childhood, youth, love life, and his efforts to become a commando in the Indian Army. The story of Major aptly picturizes the helpful nature of Major Sandeep who was always ready to help any person in need or distress.
Fantastic Screenplay
I must say, the screenplay of Major is fantastic. The first half of the movie is lightly entertaining. The first half focuses on Major Sandeep’s early life, and his efforts to become a commando by joining the Indian Army. The first half won’t bore you, and instead will make you curious about what’s coming next. You will be engrossed with light comedy, and Major Sandeep’s love life along with a few romantic tracks.
When the second half comes, it is time for some intense action! Here you will see how Major Sandeep and his commando team barges into the terrorist-occupied hotel to directly face them. You will witness intense gun fights, hand-to-hand combats, and scenes showing the rescue of hostages inside the hotel. The creativity involved in the recreation of the 26/11 terrorist attacks at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel is praiseworthy. The tense moments shown inside the terrorist-occupied Taj Mahal Palace hotel are thrilling, and will keep you engrossed till the end. The action choreography, the action scenes, and stunts are powerful and exciting. You will get to see the real drama unfold right before your eyes where Indian commandos take on terrorists, as it happened on November 26, 2008 at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel.
Heart-Touching Dialogues
Though Major is originally a Telugu film, the dialogues for its Hindi version have been written by Akshat Ajay Sharma. After hearing these dialogues, you will become familiar with the efforts of the Indian Army in protecting our territory. These dialogues are impactful enough to arise patriotic emotions within you, and you will feel your sentiments getting driven towards the soldiers and our motherland.
Outstanding Performances
Adivi Sesh has given a fantastic performance as he looks very enduring as an Indian Army commando. He is in great shape, and seems to be in his top form for this role. The action scenes he performed, and his dialogue delivery are such as if he was born to play the role of Major Sandeep Unnikrishnnan. No doubt, after watching this movie I understand how this idea of making a film on the life of Major Sandeep, and choosing to star himself as the daredevil commando occurred to him. He probably knew that that this role was meant for him only!
Saiee Manjrekar has a small role as Major Sandeep’s love interest Isha Agarwal in Major. However, she carried out her role diligently, and seemed to have great chemistry with Adivi Sesh.
Prakash Raj is an outstanding character actor and as Major Sandeep’s father in this movie, he delivers a powerful performance to make you emotional, and even make you cry in certain scenes. In one scene, as Sandeep forgets his appointment letter for the Indian Army and leaves from his house in an autorickshaw, his father can be seeing running behind the autorickshaw to hand over the appointment letter to him . This scene will surely make you emotional. In another scene, Prakash Raj as Sandeep’s father can be seen watching the terrorist attack live on television while his son was fighting the terrorists. In that scene if you watch his expressions, you will surely opine that he is one of the top-class actors in the industry. Revathi as Major Sandeep’s mother too gave an excellent performance in this film.
Appealing Cinematography
The camerawork by Vamsi Patchipulusu was extraordinary, and appealing. The wide angle indoor and outdoor camera shots in the movie were enticing. The best thing about the camerawork is that it precisely captured the expressions of each and every character which will in turn get you attached to these characters while you watch the movie.
This great cinematography was coupled by a sharp and crisp editing done by Vinay Kumar Srigineedi and Kodati Pavan Kalyan which kept the scenes compact, and informative. The scene placements were accurate which kept the movie’s flow steady till the end.
A Masterwork By Sashi Kiran Tikka
I must say, the filming has been very maturely handled by director Sashi Kiran Tikka. Major is a very well made family movie with a free-flowing narrative. It is entertaining for all age groups of audiences, and you surely won’t get bored watching it irrespective of your age. In fact, it is a unique 26/11 story on one commando’s life. This makes the plot interesting, and engrossing as compared to any other 26/11 movie.
The Bad:
The Watchability
The 26/11 terrorist attacks on the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in Mumbai was a very sad incident in the Indian history, and due to the emotions attached many people might not want to rewatch Major. Even some Indians may not like to re-live those disastrous memories and worse, they may even choose to not watch Major at all, in spite of it be being an amazing biographical action-thriller. Thus, even with a great plot and screenplay, this movie may fail in terms of watchability as well as rewatchability. However, I personally feel that this is a movie worth the watch.
The Verdict:
While deciding on this biopic, the producers had registered two titles for the film, “Major” and “Major Sandeep”. After entering into talks with Major Sandeep’s family for obtaining the rights for making this movie on the soldier’s life, the title of the movie was finally decided as “Major”.
The songs in this movie are average, and have been recorded in Hindi, Telugu, and Malayalam versions. Major is basically from the Telugu film industry but was shot simultaneously in Hindi language as well. This was done for promoting this film as a “Pan-India” film as its story is set in North India where people speak mostly Hindi. The film was shot within a total of 120 days across 75 locations.
Overall, Major is a classic film version of a true story which deserves to be showcased on the big screens. I believe that this film is an effective homage to a 26/11 hero apart from being a relentlessly entertaining biopic. This movie is sure to move you with empathy, and patriotism. If you want to witness the 26/11 terrorist attacks at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, and the efforts of the Indian Army commandos to counter the attacks and save the hostages, just go for Major!

Prayagraj police has sent an estimate of over Rs 1 crore in damages to claim tribunal for recovery. These damages account for the loss of public property during violence in the city on 10 June during protests against inflammatory remarks by former Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Nupur Sharma.
"The evaluation includes the Provincial Armed Constabulary (PAC) truck that was burnt, several CCTV cameras that were destroyed, three motorcycles which were burnt and a day's salary of PAC personnel who were deployed in the aftermath of the violence. The loss is evaluated and sent to claim tribunal which will issue recovery notices to the accused," Ajay Kumar, Prayagraj senior superintendent of police, told The Quint.
Earlier this year, while hearing a plea seeking quashing of the recovery notices issued by the Uttar Pradesh administration to recover the damage caused to public properties in connection with protests against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA) in the state in 2019, the Supreme Court had asked the UP government to withdraw the notice, or it would quash the proceedings as it in violation of the laws laid by it.
The Supreme Court, however, granted liberty to the UP government to proceed against alleged anti-CAA protesters under the new law – Uttar Pradesh Recovery of Damages to Public and Private Property Act which was notified in 2020. This law empowers the state government to set up tribunals which will decide claims for damage to property. The tribunal will be headed by a retired judge.
Prayagraj Development Authority has issued a notice for the demolition of the house of Mohammad Shah Alam, district chief of All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM). Alam is accused of violence in the city and is currently on the run. The notice was sent in the name of Alam's brother Syed Maqsood Ahmad and the Prayagraj Development Authority (PDA), citing the construction to be illegal, has sought a reply on the demolition notice by 29 June.
The house was in the name of his wife Parveen Fatima, who has now moved an Allahabad court demanding reconstruction of the house and government accommodation till their house is rebuilt.
The data of the arrested accused is being shared with the PDA, which has been conducting a survey of houses and other buildings in the name of these accused.
"We have just been sharing information on the arrested accused with the PDA. They have been taking action based on their discretion and judgement. We don't interfere in their work," Prayagraj SSP Ajay Kumar said.
At least 424 people have been arrested in connection to violence in Kanpur on 3 June and in other districts, including Prayagraj, on 10 June against the inflammatory statement by former BJP leader Nupur Sharma. Post violence, 20 FIRs have been registered in 10 UP districts.

Police working to identify 3 bodies found in car as missing family
WANDO, South Korea, June 29 (Yonhap) -- Police are working to identify the three bodies found inside a car as the family that went missing last month after the vehicle was recovered from the sea off the southwestern coast Wednesday, officials said.
The family of three -- a 10-year-old girl named Cho Yu-na and her parents -- went missing last month while staying at a guesthouse in Wando, an island 362 kilometers south of Seoul.
Following massive search operations, police found the Audi sedan the family rented upturned underwater near Wando a day ago and hauled it out of the sea Wednesday.
Inside the vehicle, police found three bodies presumed to be those of the family, according to the Gwangju Metropolitan Police and the Coast Guard in Wando.
Police plan to confirm their identities through fingerprint examinations and an analysis of their belongings, officials noted.
Cho had been absent from her elementary school in Gwangju since May 19 after reporting she would take part in an outdoor learning program on Jeju Island together with her parents for about a month.
Her school reported her absence to the police a week earlier as she did not show up for class upon the termination of her reported one-month leave.
The family was last seen May 30, when the mother was captured on closed-circuit TV carrying a child presumed to be Cho on her back, while the father was looking on.
The cellphones of Cho and her mother were switched off two hours later near the guesthouse, while the father's cellphone was also switched off the following morning on an adjacent dock, police said.
The family was reported to be suffering from economic problems and struggling to pay the monthly rent after the father closed his business last year.

Mandy Moore is pumping the brakes on touring, for now.
On Tuesday, the In Real Life singer announced that she made the difficult decision to end her tour early in a written statement shared on Instagram. Moore, who is currently expecting her second child with husband Taylor Goldsmith, explained that being on tour was “too challenging” amid her pregnancy.
“Friends, It is with a heavy heart and much consideration that I have to let you all know that I am canceling my remaining show dates in 2022,” Moore, 38, informed fans.
“It has been an honor and an absolute dream to return to the stage again this past month, performing for all of you. When we booked these shows, I wasn’t pregnant and although I truly thought I could power through, the way we are traveling (long hours on the bus and not getting proper rest) has caught up, taken its toll, and made it feel too challenging to proceed,” the This Is Us star continued.
“I know that I have to put my family and my health (and the health of my baby) first and the best place for me to be right now is at home. Thank you for all of your support along the way and thank you in advance for respecting my decision,” she concluded. “I can’t wait to get back out there soon to bring this music and show your way!!”

RELATED: Pregnant Mandy Moore Shares Glimpse of ‘OB Visits in New Cities’ While on Tour
Last week, the singer-songwriter shared a photo on her Instagram Story featuring a sonogram from a recent OB appointment.
In the caption, Moore said she’s “keeping on schedule” with all her appointments while on the road touring her new album, In Real Life. “Grateful for OB visits in new cities along the way to make sure baby boy is a-okay,” she wrote.
Mandy Moore/Instagram
The actress announced on Instagram earlier this month that she is pregnant, expecting her second baby boy with Goldsmith this fall. Moore and Goldsmith are already parents to 15-month-old son August “Gus” Harrison.
“One incredibly seminal chapter of my life just ended and the next one, as a mother of two, is about to start… and are we ever so deeply grateful and excited. Baby Boy Goldsmith #2 coming this fall!” she wrote alongside an adorable photo of Gus wearing a big brother t-shirt.
“Tour is gonna be slightly different than I expected but I can’t wait and Gus is gonna be the BEST big brother!! Xo,” added Moore, who released her album shortly before her big announcement.
MANDY MOORE/instagram
In Real Life was written, in part, as a reflection on parenthood and this next stage of Moore’s life.
“So much of this record came from future-tripping on the next chapter of my life and what it might look like: what parenthood would feel like, how it would change everything, and all the excitement and trepidation that comes with that,” she said in a statement. “At the same time, it was about celebrating and acknowledging where we were at the moment and really trying to be completely present in the everyday—which is maybe the hardest part of the human condition.”
“To me it’s all about staying open, staying aware, staying sensitive and empathetic to the people around me,” Moore said of the new album. “There’s something about expressing myself through lyrics and melody that makes me feel whole, and I see it as a privilege to have that outlet.”
“And even though this album is very specific to me and my experience—there’s songs about my baby, my husband, my father, my friends—I hope everyone’s able to see their own lives in it. I hope they’re able to come along on the journey with me, and put themselves in the driver’s seat.” | https://www.thehamdenjournal.com/world/mandy-moore-cancels-remainder-of-2022-tour-dates-amid-pregnancy-to-focus-on-health-and-family/241054/ | 2022-06-29T08:27:16Z | https://www.thehamdenjournal.com/world/mandy-moore-cancels-remainder-of-2022-tour-dates-amid-pregnancy-to-focus-on-health-and-family/241054/ | false | 2 |
The most viral hairstyles of Tik Tok
Being in the world is being on Tik Tok or at least knowing what’s going on there. Because in addition to the viral and challenge that everyone follows, is a good place to locate up to the minute what is sweeping the trends. Of course, express trends. And it is that right now, the most viral hairstyles may not be next month. So, let’s say you’re in the world right now if you’ve already made at least one of the most sought after ideas.
And we have good news for that: you don’t need to be a handyman with bobby pins, curling irons or flat irons. Nor knowing how to make you the latest fashionable Italian bow. All you need is to follow the advice of these experts and the desire to change.
Kendall Jenner’s coppery hair
It has been one of the most groundbreaking ideas of recent weeks in networks. It has crossed the barrier of 120 million views on Tik Tok (123 million to be exact). And also on Instagram, where since she appeared with her new copper hair (real and not a wig) at the Prada show, she has been postulated as one of the fashionable shades.
This content is imported from Instagram. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.
It is presented as a tone reminiscent of summer sunsets. Starting point of many others trends fashion, like Paula Usero’s makeup. And it is a color easily adaptable to any skin tone and hair. Of course, it requires demanding maintenance.
According to the experts at Llongueras, it is important to protect this shade well from heat and the effects of UV rays, as it damages it and makes it short-lived. In addition, they recommend using products that enhance color and, above all, shine and hydration because “dyed hair is the one that most suffers from dehydration”, they affirm. A fashionable tone, but a delicate tone for summer…
Blowout: 90s revival
The fluffy hair has become the trend most wanted among hair tutorials. Or what is the same: the volume in the mane that marked the 90s (for which the curlers, too, are back)
We are talking about the reference hairstyle that marked the end of this decade and the beginning of the 2000s, the era of Peter Lindbergh’s army of models. And if there is a good reference in the networks right now that has rescued that essence, that is Alexandra Pereira and hers is already famous blowout bob
From Franck Provost, they give us some keys to dry it and mold it like Pereira: “For the ends, blow dry by shaping the brush inwards towards the neck. Finally, focus on the sides that frame the face and shape outwards to add volume to the upper part of the face.”
And it is that it is a simple hairstyle if you have just cut a bob hair, which only needs a little practice with the dryer and the brush, although as they recommend, you will also make good use of a heat and frizz protector to protect it and make it shiny and voluminous.
Y2K semi-collected
Half of the mane up and half down. Of course, it varies with respect to the classic that positions the collected in the middle part of the head. In this variation, the gathered ponytail is placed in the highest part and creates a much longer hair sensation.
Copy the viral idea by previously blow-drying and even ironing, for a greater effect of length. Then, take a few strands in the upper area and hold them with an elastic or a clip, another of the great trends of the networks.
sleek bun
Live a high moment and the numerous versions of this flattering hairstyle are added: from the high semi-updo option to the ballerina style, low and with a very marked parting. In fact, it was Marta Lozano’s wedding hairstyle, styled by the experts at Llongueras.
This content is imported from Instagram. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.
It is an elegant, very consistent hairstyle that requires prior work. The stylists tell us how to get it.
“Put the hair well in a ponytail, comb the sides so that it is even and twist it until you get a bun. The ideal would be to fix it with styling products that also give you the desired finish to the bun, either matte or shiny”.
If you add some colored hairpins or clips, you have it.
Braids to frame the face
Another of the hairstyles that comes straight from the 90s and that names like Dua lipa, Chiara Ferragni or Hailey Bieber have already worn. And it is a very simple hairstyle that will depend on the taste of each one. That is, make as many braids as you want, on both sides and tie them with mini elastics. Best in neon and colored tones.
This content is imported from Instagram. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.
The opinion from Franck Provost: “If you have very straight hair, you can previously apply a spray that adds texture to the hair before making the braids”, recommend.

Side bangs (“good girls” style)
A great favorite of the Y2K generation returns to invade the catwalks and make us remember the early years of the 2000s.
A whole flashback that resurrects the bangs that some like Farrah Fawcett began to wear in the 70s and that are now recovered by the new generations in haircuts that flee from straightness and are replaced by concepts such as shaggy or XL bangs.
“By shaping around the face, you are creating a more or less marked fringe, that is why they are now a trend, because the fringe is the best way to frame the face”explains Alberto Sanguino, from Llongueras.
Of course, make sure if this type of cut will favor you. And it is that to cut a good fringe on the side it depends on the type of oval since, as they explain, there are two fringe formulas in this type: “the one that is on the side but is combed forward and the one that is on the side and combed in the same way”. And they add: “if you have a long, rectangular or oval face, you are more interested in a bang very sideways but combed forward, so that you don’t see where the hair comes from.” If you have a round face, the ideal -they recommend- is that the ends are longer because “The shorter it is, the rounder the face will appear visually.”
Who has worn it lately? Well, without going any further, Emma Stone, a classic in the actress.

NEW YORK, June 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The cold chain market will be driven by factors such as the use of RFID in cold chain logistics. Standard RFID tracking and tracing can help in planning and fast decision-making for the transport of temperature-sensitive products. RFID devices help enterprises monitor the temperature. Moreover, RFID tags collect a wide range of information, such as moisture, light, radiation, shock/vibration, and gas concentrations. Therefore, the use of RFID in cold chain logistics tracking and tracing will help enterprises in improving logistics operations and keeping track of the products.
The cold chain market is expected to grow by USD 256.58 bn from 2020 to 2025. Moreover, the growth momentum of the market will progress at a CAGR of 16.92% during the forecast period, according to Technavio.

Cold Chain Market 2021-2025 : Market Challenge
The lack of infrastructure in developing countries will challenge the global cold chain market share growth during the forecast period. In developing countries such as India, the penetration of the cold chain is low due to the high fixed cost involved. Farmers in such countries do not prefer cold storage, as it increases the cost of their operations. Moreover, the lack of technical knowledge and insufficient transportation facilities act as a challenge for the adoption of cold chains among customers in these regions. These factors will make it difficult for customers to access cold chain facilities.

Junior Andre reckons his dad Pete is 'stepping back from the music industry' after his son stormed the charts with his debut single.
The 16-year-old bagged the number one spot on iTunes with his smash hit Slide - 27 years after Pete's Mysterious Girl.
The father-of-four, 49, is taking a hands on approach to Junior's career with the teen revealing the Aussie is ready to make way for his protégé.
Recalling the moment Pete first introduced him to a recording studio, Junior said: "Me and my dad sort of looked at each other and he said, 'It's your time now, son'.
"I couldn't stop smiling. It was the happiest I'd ever been. I feel like I found myself in life - this is what I want to do.
"I go back to that day, and I remember I was so proud of myself, and my dad was so proud of me," he told the Daily Star.
Slide stormed to the top of the charts within hours of its release, selling more than Harry Styles and Lady Gaga.
However despite his impressive success, Junior is still a teenager and says he still has rules to follow.
Describing the reality of releasing a record, he revealed: "I would sleep in a studio. Obviously, I'm not an adult yet so I have a curfew. But my dad knows how it gets, when you want to record more but you have to be home at a certain time."
Doting dad Pete shared his excitement when Slide shot to number one, sharing snapshots of the iTunes chart with the caption: “What a start. Wow son. Let’s get him to number 1! Thanks everyone that’s downloading this for him.”
The teen's mum Katie Price also congratulated her son, saying she was “so proud”, and uploaded screenshots of her listening to the track.
Junior performed Slide at a launch party, which was attended by his sister Princess.
A crowd of excited fans were serenaded by the star, who looked very much at home on stage.
But there was no-one more excited than doting dad Pete, who gushed: “You have no idea how proud I am of you tonight son.
"Born to do it.” | https://www.irishmirror.ie/showbiz/celebrity-news/peter-andre-stepping-back-music-27353643 | 2022-06-29T08:32:23Z | https://www.irishmirror.ie/showbiz/celebrity-news/peter-andre-stepping-back-music-27353643 | false | 2 |
Matt Olson, Braves pursue another win over Phillies
The Atlanta Braves will look for their second straight win in a National League East series when they battle the host Philadelphia Phillies on Wednesday.
In a 5-3 victory Tuesday, Atlanta's Matt Olson crushed a pair of solo home runs while Travis d'Arnaud added a home run, a single and two RBIs.
Olson has five home runs in four career games at Citizens Bank Park.
"I've seen it well here in the park and the ball goes pretty good, so I'll try to keep it going," Olson told Bally Sports South. "I'm starting to feel good, putting the barrel on some more balls."
It was another impressive win for the short-handed Braves, who were without closer Kenley Jansen and Ronald Acuna Jr.
The Braves, who are 20-5 this month, placed Jansen on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with an irregular heartbeat and recalled right-hander Jesus Cruz. Jansen, who has 20 saves this season, ranks No. 10 all-time with 370 career saves.
"We've been trying to take care of him and give him days and not overwork him too much," Braves manager Brian Snitker said of the 34-year-old veteran who had heart surgery in 2018. "It's hard when you get on a run. A guy like that, he's a Hall of Famer. He wants to pitch."
Atlanta left-hander A.J. Minter tossed a scoreless ninth inning Tuesday for his first save in three opportunities.
Acuna, meanwhile, is not with the team in Philadelphia as he continues to recuperate from a bruised left foot. It's unclear whether he will play Wednesday or Thursday against the Phillies.
Kyle Wright (8-4, 3.18 ERA) is scheduled to start on Wednesday for the Braves. Wright is 0-3 with a 5.00 ERA in four career games against the Phillies.
After winning three of four on the road against the San Diego Padres, the Phillies will now look to rebound from the series-opening loss to the Braves.
Despite the setback, the Phillies still hold an impressive 18-7 record in June.
Kyle Schwarber continues to lead the offense in the absence of Bryce Harper. The left fielder reached base for the 31st straight game on Tuesday, and he hit his 11th homer of the month.
"It's baseball and it happens," Schwarber said of the loss. "Our guys have been pretty locked down the last couple of weeks."
Earlier on Tuesday, interim Phillies manager Rob Thomson announced that Harper -- the reigning National League MVP -- will have surgery on Wednesday to repair a broken left thumb.
Harper was hitting .318 with 15 home runs and 48 RBIs through 64 games.
"If he's able to come back, which we plan on, then that's good news," Thomson said of Harper possibly returning by mid-August.
In the meantime, the Phillies must attempt to accumulate wins without Harper for a minimum of six weeks.
They went just 1-for-10 with runners in scoring position on Tuesday and left seven runners on base. Nick Castellanos, a prized free agent acquisition in the offseason, finished 0-for-4 and had his average drop to .248.
"I feel like you miss Bryce every night," Thomson said. "We've got to get it done."
The Phillies will hand the ball to Ranger Suarez (6-4, 4.23 ERA) as they look to even the series. The left-hander is 1-1 with a 4.91 ERA in 11 career games (two starts) against the Braves.

Los Angeles - Bryson DeChambeau says he understands criticism of the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Series over human rights issues, but said Tuesday people need to "move on" from past "bad" Saudi actions.
The 2020 US Open champion spoke ahead of Thursday's kickoff of the upstart tour's first US event and second overall at Pumpkin Ridge in North Plains, Oregon.
Asked about concerns over the new circuit's financial backers, the 28-year-old American said people need to look at the good things LIV Golf could bring.
"I understand people's decisions on their comments and whatnot. But as it relates to me, I have made my own decision," DeChambeau said.
"Golf is a force for good and I think as time goes on, hopefully people will see the good they are doing and what they are trying to accomplish rather than looking at the bad that has happened before.

PGA Tour to offer bigger purses, new schedule to counter LIV - reports
'Saudi's good': heavyweight Joshua ducks 'sportswashing' jab
"I think moving on from that is important and going and continuing to move forward in a positive light is something that could be a force for good for the future of the game."
Saudi money is backing the richest prizes in golf history with $25 million at stake in this week's 54-hole tournament. It has lured a number of US PGA Tour stars despite bans for those who jump to LIV Golf.
Asked about concerns with Saudi involvement, four-time major winner Brooks Koepka said, "We're here to play golf. We're excited about it. We're going to go out there, put on the best show we can."
American Pat Perez, also making his LIV debut this week, replied, "I don't have any concerns. I'm playing golf. This group has provided me an opportunity to play golf and have a different schedule and that's my only concern.
"I understand the topics you're trying to bring up, and they're horrible events, but I'm here to play golf. That's my deal."
Players said a smaller schedule, only eight events this year, and richer purses were major reasons they made the jump to LIV Golf.
"I wanted to spend more time with my children," said 2018 Masters winner Patrick Reed. "I wanted to be a dad. And to have an opportunity where I can play with some of the top players in the world.
"The reason why we're able to do that is because our purses are higher."
Koepka, who had supported the PGA earlier, said his decision was made last week.
"My opinion changed. That was it," he said. "We didn't have the conversation 'til everything was done at the US Open."
Nagging injuries and recovery times were factors in his choice, citing burnout.
"What I've had to go through the last two years on my knees, the pain, the rehab, all this stuff, you realize, I need a little bit more time off," Koepka said.
It could cost top players their chances to compete in some majors after this year, if the tournaments follow the US PGA Tour in banning LIV talent.
"When it comes to the majors, we don't really know where they all stand," Reed said. "Having a green jacket, I would think I'd be able to play there for the rest of my life. At the end of the day, that's going to be up to them."
Reed also noted PGA plans to boost prize money at some events in 2023 and the launch of three new PGA events with big prize money.
"Seeing how miraculously the purses all of a sudden went skyrocketing back up on the PGA Tour -- it just shows that they obviously believe that this is not only a true threat, but a great tour as well if they're going and copying what we're doing," Reed said.
Koepka accepts his fate whatever major organizers decide.
"I made a decision," he said. "I'm happy with it, and whatever comes of it, I'll live with it."

The England star who keeps putting the boot into Wallabies
By Iain Payten
Since a humbling series whitewash in 2016 began a run of eight England victories, the mantle of chief Wallabies tormentor has usually been handed to coach Eddie Jones.
However, the true persecutor of Australian rugby in Cook and World Cup clashes has arguably been the man Jones is expected to reinstate as England captain on Thursday, Owen Farrell.
Farrell missed the Six Nations due to an ankle injury, and with Tom Curry and Courtney Lawes in his place, England fell to Ireland, Scotland and France to finish a disappointing third.
However, Farrell is back to full fitness and on Saturday will play his 100th Test, for England (94) and the British and Irish Lions (six). Jones opted not to name a captain when announcing his squad and said instead he would reveal the skipper when he named his first Test team.
Given the damage the 30-year-old has done to them, in the past six years in particular, the Wallabies might have hoped Farrell’s ankle took a little longer to heal.
Featuring in seven of those eight straight wins, Farrell and his deadly goal-kicking have contributed 133 points against the Wallabies, more than half of the team’s total of 250 points. In return, the Wallabies scored just 136 points. In 2016, Farrell scored 66 points across three Tests, and in four of the past seven Tests he has outscored Australia on his own.
From 2016, Farrell’s average against the Wallabies has been 19 points a Test, slightly up from a career average of 14 points a game against Australia. Italy are his next biggest victims, with an average of 13 per game.
Allied with a dominant forward pack, the steady and lethal accumulation of points via Farrell’s boot is a major reason the Wallabies haven’t beaten England since 2015.
But as he attempts to reboot England’s World Cup momentum, Jones is also cherishing the return of Farrell’s leadership. Particularly outside exciting No.10 Marcus Smith.
“It’s a long time since he played for England,” Jones said of Farrell prior to arriving in Australia last week. “He’s in great form for his club, he’s physically good, so we want him to really impose himself in Test rugby.
“We feel Marcus at 10 and Owen at 12 would give us our best attacking options, particularly with Owen’s ability to play through the line and a strong kicking game.
“With Marcus’ off-the-ball skills, we feel that’s going to be a good combination.”
Even in early, light training sessions, Jones said Farrell’s presence was noticeable.
“The influence of having someone back like Owen Farrell is really evident already,” Jones said. “He communicates succinctly, his ability to see the game succinctly, is going to be a great bonus for us.”
Smith, who has played just three Tests for England, praised Farrell for his guidance on the training pitch.
“He’s a massive competitor and wears his heart on his sleeve. More than that, he’s got brilliant vision and skills at the line,” Smith said.
“We trained together a couple of weeks ago and I really enjoyed it. I’ve loved learning off him and bouncing ideas off him. We complement each other nicely - we both see the game pretty similarly. I hope we can both come together and get the best out of each other.”

The group said Heron Foods "performed consistently well throughout the quarter, ahead of internal expectations" while France delivered strong like-for-like revenue growth, with gardening and leisure "performing particularly well".
B&M's UK sales fell from £1.019bn to £957m while Heron Foods increased from £102m to £113m.
Sales in France rose from £68m to £91m and the number of stores run by the group went from 1,097 to 1,125. | https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/bm-sales-tumbled-despite-heron-24349283 | 2022-06-29T08:50:42Z | https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/bm-sales-tumbled-despite-heron-24349283 | true | 2 |
Bournemouth goalkeeper Mark Travers has signed a five-year deal to stay with the Cherries until the summer of 2027. PIC: Sportsfile
Bournemouth goalkeeper Mark Travers has signed a five-year deal to stay with the Cherries until the summer of 2027.
The 23-year-old Republic of Ireland international established himself as Bournemouth’s number one last term as Scott Parker’s side won promotion to the Premier League.
“We are delighted to secure Mark’s services on a long-term contract,” chief executive Neill Blake told the Bournemouth website.
“Last season he was a key part of the club’s promotion to the Premier League and has continued his impressive growth and development.
“As a club, we’re pleased to provide a pathway for our academy players and Mark is a great example of not only the high standard of coaching across the club but of him having the mentality to take his opportunities when they’ve arisen.
“Hopefully Mark can continue to flourish and keep up his impressive progression in the Premier League.”
The Kildare native started 45 of Bournemouth’s 46 league games last season and kept 20 clean sheets to win the Sky Bet Championship’s Golden Glove award.
He said: “Last season was brilliant. It was my first real run of games in a full season and that was great to do to get the games under my belt.
“I grew in confidence every game and tried to repay the manager for trusting me and showing faith in me at the start of the season.”

The Met Office has issued an ominous warning to Brits who don't like hot weather and told them they will have to “get used to it”.
According to the experts, the unseasonal temperatures we've been experiencing, which hit 35c earlier this month in some parts of the UK, will happen every two to three years.
Met Office scientists calculated that the chances of a record breaking June monthly temperature across western Europe have become over 10 times more likely in just 20 years.
READ MORE: UK to be hit with heatwave as temperatures set to reach 30C in first week of July
This means that we could be either topping up our tans on the beach, or seeking refuge by an air conditioning unit more often.
In their estimation, what was a one in 723 year event in 2003 – where 30,000 people died across Europe due to temperatures hitting 37c - would now be a one in 66 year event in 2022.
Met Office Climate Change Attribution Scientist, Dr Nikos Christidis, said: “Our latest study has looked at how the chances of the hottest June on record in western Europe has changed over the past 20 years.
“We found that in just two decades, the probability of seeing those record breaking 2003 temperatures again has become more than 10 times more likely.
“We also applied our extreme event attribution approach to project how the probabilities might change in the future if we don’t reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
“This showed that the 2003 record breaking June could be witnessed every two to three years by the end of the century.”
The biggest danger, they warned, can come from overnight temperatures.
If they remain high, the body has “no opportunity to recover from the daytime heat”, which can make any existing health conditions worse and cause heat related illness in the usually fit and healthy.
On the plus side, it could meant that Brits could choose to stay in the UK to get a bit of sun – while cold-weather holiday trips could increase.
Professor Peter Stott, Deputy Head of climate science at the Met Office, added: “The impacts of climate change on our weather are already being seen across the world and those impacts are increasing very rapidly.”

Ukraine diplomat urges German MEPs to reject EU taxonomy
By EUobserver
Ukraine's ambassador to Germany, Andrij Melnyk, on Tuesday urged German MEPs to reject the EU taxonomy, including gas and nuclear as "transitional" technologies in guidelines for sustainable finance. "If the European Union improves the conditions for investments in gas infrastructure, Russia will benefit from this," he said, in a letter published by German media RND. Melnyk said the Russian energy minister has already reacted "happily" to the taxonomy proposals. | https://euobserver.com/tickers/155370 | 2022-06-29T08:58:25Z | https://euobserver.com/tickers/155370 | false | null |

Cheadle autistic patients look for new accommodation
By Joanne Gallacher
BBC Radio Stoke political reporter
- Published
Health bosses in Staffordshire are trying to find accommodation for 19 people, after owners of a specialist inpatient facility said it would no longer provide care.
The Woodhouse, in Cheadle, cares for autistic patients or those with learning disabilities.
It was rated inadequate last week by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
Elysium Healthcare, which runs it, said it fully acknowledged "the shortcomings identified".
Residents, who come from across the country, have been given up to 12 weeks to find alternative accommodation.
'Inappropriate restraint'
The CQC report said the facility had been placed in special measures after inspectors visited between 28 February and 8 March.
Following one day of the inspection, the CQC wrote a letter to the provider highlighting "significant concerns with staff conduct", including "inappropriate and disproportionate use of restraint and the investigation of incidents".
It also said despite improvements seen in some areas since a previous inspection, "we remain concerned about the way some staff have treated people who use the service".
At the time of the inspection all 23 patients had been detained under the mental health act.
Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent clinical commissioning groups, responsible for contracting NHS services in the area, said they would "co-ordinate efforts to find appropriate alternative accommodation".
In a statement, they said: "Our priority throughout will be the welfare and safety of residents. We anticipate at this point the process will be completed within three months."
Elysium Healthcare said the inspection report showed it had fallen "below our own high standards".
It said: "As a result, we have decided we will no longer provide inpatient services for people with learning disabilities and autism from this site."
The firm added it would co-ordinate with patients and their families to find suitable alternatives.
It also plans to work with partners to ensure The Woodhouse "continues to serve the community with a new focus".

SIBU (June 29): The Magistrates’ Court here today fined a man RM4,000 in default five months’ jail for voluntarily causing hurt against his neighbour using a machete.
Magistrate Mohd Syukri Mokhtar convicted Abang Zapril Abang Mohaidi, 37, on his own guilty plea to a charge under Section 324 of the Penal Code.
The Section provides for a jail term of up to 10 years, or a fine, or caning, or with any two such punishments.
Based on the charge sheet, he hurt his 46-year-old neighbour using a machete, which is a scheduled weapon under the Corrosive and Explosive Substances and Offensive Weapon Act 1958 on June 25 at 3.55pm at Jalan Masjid here.
According to the facts of the case, three policemen went to the scene after they received a report about a fight at Jalan Masjid.
They arrested Mohd Syukri and also seized a machete.
A police investigation later found he had slashed the victim with a machete following a misunderstanding between them.
The misunderstanding occurred due to the victim’s allegation that Mohd Syukri had thrown a stone into his house.
A doctor treating the victim confirmed he suffered a laceration on his right elbow.
Mohd Syukri, who was unrepresented by counsel, failed to pay the fine.
Deputy public prosecutor Muhamad Ali Hussain prosecuted the case. | https://www.theborneopost.com/2022/06/29/sibu-man-fined-rm4000-for-slashing-neighbour-with-machete/ | 2022-06-29T09:18:33Z | https://www.theborneopost.com/2022/06/29/sibu-man-fined-rm4000-for-slashing-neighbour-with-machete/ | false | 1 |

‘We support the US and Europe’: PGA of Australia breaks silence on Norman’s Saudi tour
The PGA of Australia has delivered a blow to the Saudi-backed venture headed by Greg Norman, whose name is lent to Australian golf’s most prestigious award, after finally breaking their silence on golf’s civil war.
Having kept his counsel since Norman’s controversial mega-money LIV Golf concept launched earlier this month, PGA of Australia chief executive Gavin Kirkman confirmed his support for the traditional US and European tours in the sport’s arms race.
The comments are the first indication of how Australian golf will handle its two marquee events - the Australian Open and Australian PGA - which are co-sanctioned with the DP World Tour, formerly the European Tour.
Despite LIV Golf planning to visit Sydney later this year on an exploratory mission to bring a tournament Down Under, the PGA of Australia said it backed the current “ecosystem” where the world’s best players had traditionally been members in the United States or Europe.
“The PGA of Australia is fully supportive of the US PGA Tour and the DP World Tour as they continue to bring the global golf ecosystem together,” Kirkman said in a statement provided to the Herald and The Age.
“We are in regular contact with both of the tours and following conversations as recent as [Tuesday night], we are excited about the future. Our working relationship with both tours is stronger than ever as we continue to seek the best outcomes for our players, fans and the sport in our region.
“Specifically, the opportunities presented by the move to a calendar year schedule for the PGA Tour should pave the way for our Australian stars to return home for our major events, and importantly, we have been actively talking to tours about bringing events to Australia.
“The ISPS HANDA PGA Tour of Australasia is focused on its strategic alliance with the DP World Tour which is providing unprecedented pathways for our players to progress on that tour, along with the Korn Ferry Tour via the PGA Tour.
“We want to provide the best possible opportunities for all Australian touring professionals, and we’re confident that working closely with the DP World Tour and the PGA Tour will help us achieve that.”
The defending champions of both of Australia’s biggest events, Matt Jones (2019 Australian Open) and Jed Morgan (Australian PGA), played in LIV Golf’s first tournament.
At this stage, there is no impediment to Jones playing in the Australian Open given he’s not a member of the DP World Tour.
“It is fantastic for our summer of golf that our two Aussie major tournaments, the Fortinet Australian PGA Championship and the Australian Open, are both co-sanctioned by the DP World Tour and will kick off their 2022-23 season,” Kirkman said.
“Our season is still some months away from starting, but we can’t wait to welcome back our Australian stars to feature in our two marquee events in November and December.”
The PGA of Australia didn’t block Morgan and Blake Windred from flying to Europe for the first LIV event at Centurion, outside London, after Norman issued invites to the top two money winners on last season’s Australasian tour.
Kirkman’s comments are the first indication of how the PGA of Australia will react to the rebel tour, which has applied for its events to be given official world golf ranking points.
It’s seen as the most crucial step for legitimacy as American big guns Brooks Koepka, Bryson DeChambeau and Patrick Reed prepare to make their LIV Golf debuts in the second tournament in Oregon this week.
Eight of the world’s top 40 have signed up to Norman’s series, which is paying eye-popping fees to entice players to join, on top of playing for a share of $35 million in prize money for each event.
The PGA Tour has suspended its members who have joined Norman’s tour, while the DP World Tour extended its alliance with the US-based circuit until 2035 to resist the “existential threat” posed by the Saudi riches.
Norman’s limited field 54-hole events with a shotgun start have featured a team component, with Wade Ormsby to captain an all-Australian outfit featuring Matt Jones, Windred and Morgan at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club.
The other Australian in the field, Travis Smyth, will play for Niblicks GC under captain Graeme McDowell.

Hospitality New Zealand is calling for MPs across Parliament to send ACT MP Chris Baillie’s Member’s Bill on repealing Easter trading restrictions to a select committee so hospitality businesses can have their say on whether to stay open or not.
The Repeal of Good Friday and Easter Sunday as Restricted Trading Days (Shop Trading and Sale of Alcohol) Amendment Bill is expected to have its first reading in the House today.
"This is a very important issue for hospitality businesses across New Zealand and it’s important they get to debate the merits of the bill in select committee, alongside members of the public.
"Easter trading rules are currently delegated to local councils, but this leaves a patchwork of different rules across the country, which creates a lot of confusion for operators and the public.
"Dealing with this issue at a national level would remove confusion and division as some areas get to trade while others don’t. "Easter weekend presents one of the highest demand travel periods in the calendar, and removing this confusion for both domestic and international tourists also aids the recovery of tourism.
"In our view, the Easter trading debate is a simple one - it’s about enabling hospitality businesses to choose if they wish to open or not.
"After the past two years of economic devastation across our industry, it’s important business have the choice to open if they can and if they want to."

Netflix users cast their votes for a flaccid political comedy
Much like the landscape itself, political comedy is destined to prove more divisive than ever given the current climate, but it would help if the offerings made available had a lot more meat on their bones than 2020’s disappointing Irresistible, which wasted a top-tier assemblage of talent on either side of the camera to play it far too safe.
Written and directed by the outspoken and often incendiary Jon Stewart, Steve Carrel heads up the cast as a Democratic political consultant who assists a retired Marine colonel in seeking the mayorship of a small town in Wisconsin, turning what was supposed to be a friendly race for local office into a multi-million dollar media attraction that gains nationwide attention.
The stacked supporting roster also includes Chris Cooper, Rose Byrne, Mackenzie Davis, Topher Grace, Natasha Lyonne, and plenty other proven stars, but the end result was a middling exploration on how unrestricted financing can turn any campaign into something between a circus and sideshow, but none of the sociopolitical jabs landed as intended.
Irresistible did do decent numbers on VOD when it was first released in July 2020, but an apathetic 40 percent Rotten Tomatoes score ensured that it didn’t live long in the memory. However, now that Stewart’s first directorial effort in six years has been made available on Netflix, it’s been riding a renewed wave of momentum.
As per FlixPatrol, Irresistible has been soaring on the platform’s global charts, even managing to secure a Top 10 finish in the United Kingdom. That’s a solid return for a very American look at politics, but it’s still a little too late for the film to make much of a dent in the cultural conversation. | https://wegotthiscovered.com/movies/netflix-users-cast-their-votes-for-a-flaccid-political-comedy/ | 2022-06-29T09:26:56Z | https://wegotthiscovered.com/movies/netflix-users-cast-their-votes-for-a-flaccid-political-comedy/ | true | 1 |
Thiruvananthapuram: KSEB Officers' Association leader M G Suresh Kumar has been raising objections without paying the Board Rs 6,72,560, the loss he had caused to the public sector undertaking by misusing its vehicle.
Though the Board chairman had served Kumar a notice asking the latter to compensate for the loss, he had not yet made the payment, Minister for Electricity K Krishnankutty told the State Assembly. He has raised objections, which were being examined, the minister added.
It was found that Kumar, currently posted as executive engineer at the Electrical Division Office in Perinthalmanna, misused the Board's vehicle for personal purposes while he was the assistant secretary to M M Mani, former minister for electricity.
The notice was served on Kumar after the KSEB vigilance wing submitted a probe report.
Minister Krishnankutty also informed the House that as of March 31, 2022, government and public sector institutions had not cleared power dues of Rs 1,352 crore. The Kerala Water Authority's dues stood at Rs 996.90 crore.
The minister admitted to mismatch between the Board's multi-year tariff estimate for the period 2022-23 to 2026-27 submitted to the Regulatory Commission and its budget estimate for the financial year 2022-23.
While the budget indicated a profit of Rs 496 crore, the revenue deficit according to annual recurring revenue was Rs 2,852 crore. The minister justified the mismatch saying that they were prepared for different purposes using divergent yardsticks.
The Board has received applications for generating 19.8 megawatt of power under the domestic rooftop solar scheme subsidy scheme. The scheme, being rolled out with ANERT's assistance, has been aiming at generating 25 megawatt of power.
The minister also informed the Assembly that solar power plants would be set up in government institutions and public sector undertakings on consultancy and deposit basis.
KSEB to tighten purse strings
Thiruvananthapuram: The Kerala State Electricity Board has rolled out a slew of cost-cutting measures following a directive by the Minister for Electricity K Krishnankutty.
The Board would confine the inauguration of projects less than Rs 3 crore to the cutting of ribbon by the chief engineer, rather than holding a grand event.
Among other austerity measures, the Board would postpone projects that could be temporarily put on hold during the financial years 2022-23, 2023-24 and 2024-25. The public utility service provider has also been instructed to ensure that the project estimate did not exceed.
Strict restrictions would be imposed on the creation of new posts, purchase of vehicles and construction of office buildings. Official conferences should be held online. The decision to buy vehicles for officers, too, would be deferred.
New buildings should not be granted administrative sanctions until further orders. The State's share for central projects would be slashed by 15 per cent during the current financial year. Land phones that were not frequently used over the past three years would be taken back from the offices.
Incidentally, the State Electricity Regulatory Commission has also told the KSEB to cut costs to improve its profit. | https://www.onmanorama.com/news/kerala/2022/06/29/kseb-association-leader-compensation-unpaid-vehicle-misuse.amp.html | 2022-06-29T09:27:20Z | https://www.onmanorama.com/news/kerala/2022/06/29/kseb-association-leader-compensation-unpaid-vehicle-misuse.amp.html | true | 2 |
The United States is changing its force posture in Europe based on threats coming from Russia after its invasion of Ukraine and other directions, US President Joe Biden said on Wednesday during a Nato summit in Madrid.

MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Nobel Peace Prize laureate Maria Ressa said her Rappler news website was operating “business as usual” Wednesday and would let Philippine courts decide on a government order to close the outlet critical of the outgoing Duterte administration and its deadly drug crackdown.
The Philippines’ Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday affirmed its revocation of Rappler’s license over a breach of the ban on foreign ownership and control of media outlets.
The case is one of several against Ressa and Rappler seen as part of an assault on press freedom under President Rodrigo Duterte, who leaves office Thursday and will be succeeded by Ferdinand Marcos Jr., the namesake son of the late dictator.
Ressa revealed the shutdown order against Rappler while speaking Tuesday at the East-West Center in Honolulu. “Part of the reason I didn’t have much sleep last night is because we essentially got a shutdown order,” Ressa told the audience.
She told reporters later in a Zoom interview that Rappler would continue to stand up for its rights. “You’ve heard me state repeatedly over the last six years that we have been harassed. This is intimidation. These are political tactics. We refuse to succumb to them," Ressa said.
Rappler’s attorney, Francis Lim, said the website had legal remedies available to question the SEC's administrative decision in the courts. "And we are confident that at the end of the day we shall prevail,” Lim said Wednesday in Manila.
“Rappler is facing government retaliation for its fearless reporting about rights abuses in the ‘drug war,' Duterte and Marcos’ use of disinformation on social media, and a wide variety of rights abusing actions over the past six years," Phil Robertson, the deputy Asia director of Human Rights Watch, said in a statement. “This is an effort to shut up Nobel laureate Maria Ressa, and shut down Rappler, by hook or by crook.”
Ressa and Russian Dmitry Muratov last year became the first working journalists in more than 80 years to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
Muratov's newspaper, Novaya Gazeta, suspended operations in March after pressure from Russian authorities. It was the last major independent media outlet critical of President Vladimir Putin’s government left in Russia after others either closed or were blocked following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February.
Ressa co-founded Rappler in 2012. After Duterte took office in 2016, it increasingly began reporting on the nighttime police raids that left hundreds and then thousands of mostly poor, petty drug suspects dead in overwhelmed morgues. Police said they were acting in self-defense when officers gunned down alleged drug dealers. Few suspects were questioned in what human rights activists soon described as extrajudicial executions.
Duterte and other Philippine officials have said the criminal complaints against Ressa and Rappler were not a press freedom issue but part of normal judicial procedures arising from their alleged violations of the law.
However, Duterte has openly lambasted journalists and news sites who report critically about him, including the country’s largest TV network, ABS-CBN, which was shut down in 2020 after lawmakers refused to renew its 25-year license.
As Rappler’s president and CEO, Ressa faces several criminal complaints over the website's news operations. She was convicted of libel in 2020 and sentenced to six years in prison but has remained free on bail while the case is on appeal.

Infor M3 CloudSuite for manufacturing helps Australian business icon drill into business blind spots for innovative, Industry 4.0 solutions and significant savings
MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA – Media OutReach – 29 June 2022 – Infor, the industry cloud company, today announced that Sutton Tools has deployed Infor M3 CloudSuite for manufacturing to achieve a timely and accurate understanding of its business to drive product and company expansion both domestically and abroad. Sutton Tools has also implemented the Infor OS cloud operating platform, including Infor Intelligent Open Network (ION) and Mongoose, to fine-tune internal processes and reduce total cost of ownership.
In 2001, Sutton Tools had a single distribution hub and one manufacturing centre but in the past decade has opened new facilities in New Zealand and The Netherlands as its first European base. After more than two decades, the successful migration to the cloud from a Movex/Infor M3 on-premise environment has saved Sutton Tools hundreds of thousands of dollars on new computing systems, and improved system integration and supply chain visibility across three manufacturing sites and three distribution centres – under the guidance of Infor global partner, Fortude.

https://www.infor.com/en-au/solutions/erp/m3
https://www.infor.com/en-au/technology
According to Sutton Tools, the aim of the upgrade was to:
- Improve business IT uptime
- Reduce the effort required to upgrade an on-premise system
- Take advantage of modern, continually upgraded cloud service features
- Centralise its growing number of operational sites and existing third-party cloud-based services
- Make it easier to integrate with third-party applications
A family business founded more than 100 years ago, Sutton Tools has expanded its portfolio from manufacturing threads and gauges to cutting tools and power tool accessories for specialised industrial applications such as aerospace and automotive. As a progressive business with 380 employees and $100 million-plus in revenue, Sutton Tools is consistently seeking ways to improve how it sells and delivers its tool products: in France, a vending machine in an aerospace firm instantly alerts Sutton Tools to a sale, with invoices generated automatically.
“The primary benefits of the upgrade have been improvements in excellent business uptime reliability, the most pleasing aspect of the project. The savings (of $100,000s) have been significant,” said Peter Sutton, managing director at Sutton Tools. “One of the most important contributions to our success is our ongoing reinvestment into the business – through research and development, our manufacturing processes, and the underlying technology stack.”
According to Sutton, the project “well surpassed our expectations. The efficiencies alone and to also be able to leverage Infor Mongoose and Infor ION across the business, allowed us to re-focus on the actual software than the hardware.”
“The readiness assessment was an invaluable part of the process. It highlighted functionality we would gain with the project, but more importantly identified areas for some quick wins.
“Employees adapted very quickly … I can be anywhere in the world and I’m up and running with full oversight of the company operations. During Covid, the ease of (remote) access has been invaluable,” he said.

As a Black woman playing fingerstyle guitar, Yasmin Williams has been hailed as a "hero for a new generation." She says she often felt like an anomaly- until she discovered a YouTube video of Elizabeth Cotten.
"I knew about Sister Rosetta Tharpe and other kind of more rock and roll or electric players and singers and I loved them too, but just seeing an acoustic guitarist was amazing." But when Williams tried to learn more about Cotten she discovered that most accounts of her life skipped over the hardships she overcame, focusing only on her late-career success.
Cotten was born in Chapel Hill, N.C. around 1893. Her father worked in the mines. Her mother cleaned houses. When Cotten's brother was off at work, Sis Nevills, as she was called then, snuck into his room and took his guitar off the wall. Since she was left-handed, she turned it so the bass strings were at the bottom, therefore "backwards." She used her thumb to play the melody and her fingers for the low notes.
When Cotten's brother discovered her playing, he tried to offer advice, "'You got it upside down, turn it around or change the strings." She tried but liked the sound better the other way, so she kept with it, practicing for hours on end. After the third grade, Cotten left school to work. Making 75 cents a month cleaning houses and cooking, she saved up to buy her guitar. Cotten picked up new songs after hearing them only once or twice, and wrote her songs, including "Freight Train."
Cotten was married in her mid-teens and had a daughter. A pastor discouraged her from playing "wordly" songs. But by the mid-1940s she had left the church and her marriage and she was living with family in Washington, D.C. when she applied for a job at a local department store, where she was hired to sell dolls. When a girl wandered away, Cotten saved the day by reuniting her with her mother. She didn't know it, but that woman was composer Ruth Crawford Seeger, wife of ethnomusicologist Charles Seeger, and mother to budding folk musicians Mike and Peggy, and stepson Pete- who was well on his way to stardom as a member of the Weavers.
The Seegers hired Cotten, whom they called "Libba," to cook and clean and look after the kids. They were surprised to discover that she was a musician, too, says Peggy Seeger. "When I was about 15 I walked into the kitchen and I saw her playing the guitar that was hanging on the wall. And she was playing 'Freight Train.' Then she started trotting out songs. She knew a lot of songs. We would have been happy to do the cooking and cleaning if she would just play!"
In 1956, 21-year-old Peggy took Cotten's "Freight Train" to England. "Skiffle was kind of at its height," Seeger recalls. "I arrived in March of 1956, and I was the flavor of the month because I was female, I was American, I was young, I played guitar and banjo, and I was footloose and fancy-free. So, I just sang wherever anyone asked me to sing and I even sang in places they didn't ask me to sing."
"Freight Train," which Seeger also recorded, sounded traditional, even timeless. She says it was picked up very quickly by other artists. "I taught it to Nancy Whiskey and Charles McDevitt, and when I went to China in 1957, they were playing it around the coffee houses."
The "folk process," a term coined by Charles Seeger, holds that performers can add something new to old songs (altered lyrics, different arrangements) that transforms them into distinct compositions. A common practice among musicians of the era, the Chas McDevitt group released their version of "Freight Train" in 1957, which they copyrighted under the names "Fred James and Paul Williams," pseudonyms for McDevitt and his manager, Bill Varley.
Legal theorist Kevin J. Greene says copyright law often disadvantaged the Black artists whose music was the foundation of the folk revival. "A lot of times these artists, not being well educated, not being well resourced, not knowing how to navigate the copyright system, didn't realize that if they performed their work publicly anybody could fix those lyrics and claim copyright."
The song shot up to No. 5 on the UK charts, then Rusty Draper took it to the Top 10 in the U.S. where promotional materials described the song as "a new hit tailor-made for him." When she learned of the infringement Cotten assigned rights to a music publisher who initiated legal action.
According to her family, an out-of-court settlement gave Cotten only a third of the songwriting credit to be shared with McDevitt and Varley. Though the royalty terms were never made public, at the time it was customary for music publishers to take a 50% cut, likely leaving Cotten with only a fraction of the song's true worth. Meanwhile, other artists continued releasing "Freight Train," including Peter, Paul and Mary, who rerouted the song to New York City in 1963. With a lyrical shout-out to Bleecker Street, they credited the song to Paul Stookey, Mary Travers, Elena Mezzetti and producer Milton Okun.
Mike Seeger started coming by Cotten's house to tape her performing "Freight Train" and other songs. He produced her debut album Negro Folksongs and Other Tunes (later renamed Folksongs with Instrumentals and Guitar) for release on the Folkways label in 1958. However, efforts to reclaim "Freight Train" were confounded by the appearance of the Chas McDevitt Group on The Ed Sullivan Show. The song became such a hit, that McDevitt even opened a coffee bar in Soho called Freight Train.
Cotten and Mike Seeger maintained a close lifelong friendship, and she continued to record and tour with him over the years, and appear at high-profile events such as the Newport Folk Festival. When she wasn't cleaning houses or performing, Cotten shared a modest room with her great-grandchildren, says Brenda Evans.
"Every night she would play to us and one of those evenings she liked the little tune she was playing and granny said to us, 'Well, kids, can you all think of some words to go to this song?' So all of us just started piping in, and that's how 'Shake Sugaree' came about."
12-year-old Evans also sang on the recording, which was copyrighted and released in 1966. Fred Neil nevertheless claimed a co-credit for his retitled arrangement, and in 1969 Pat Boone's renamed version identifies Neil as the only songwriter.
Bob Dylan, the Grateful Dead, and Joan Baez were among the artists who performed Cotten's songs live, but they didn't always announce them as covers.
Culture critic Daphne A. Brooks says generations of Black women musicians were denied the spotlight, and the world was denied their art. Cotten didn't leave domestic work until she was nearly 80 years old, at about the same time she received the 1972 Burl Ives Award for her contributions to folk music. It wasn't until 1984 that Cotten was recognized as a National Heritage Fellow by the National Endowment for the Arts. The following year, she won her first and only Grammy, for Best Ethnic or Traditional Folk Recording.
Since her 1987 death, Cotten has been recognized by North Carolina and New York, where she lived in her final years. This year the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is inducting Cotten as an "early influence." Like other Black women guitarists, such as Etta Baker, Algia Mae Hinton, and Memphis Minnie, her influence has reverberated through the generations, permeating every genre of music. "It's in the soil of our sonic landscape," says Brooks.
"The brilliance of Elizabeth Cotten's music is the music of a Black girl's lifeworld, a Black girl prodigy that wrote songs, who composed music and innovated her own unique style of playing," adds Brooks, noting that "it's a specific manifestation of her own North Carolina Jim Crow era Black girl desires, hopes, dreams, and struggles."
Singer-songwriter Laura Veirs, who published a children's book, Libba, in 2018 credits the Seegers for exposing Cotten's music to the world, but says "it was her determination that gave the world her voice." Looking back, Peggy Seeger agrees, "She was her music. When she started to play, she wasn't 'the help.'"

CHICAGO, June 29, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Millennials have unique financial challenges and opportunities. They are coming of age in a time of economic uncertainty but also have access to more information and resources than any other generation. Below are six tips on how millennials can make the most of their situation and set themselves up for financial success.
1. Get a term life insurance policy
Term life insurance is an affordable way to protect loved ones in case of premature death. Term life policies typically range from 10 to 30 years, and come with affordable premiums. If the policyholder passes away, their loved ones can receive a death benefit that they can use to replace income and pay off debts. Getting a term life policy can be essential for those with young children or dependents who rely on their income.
2. Invest in oneself
People in their 20s are at the perfect time to invest in their education and career development. The more marketable skills they have, the better their chances of achieving financial independence. Consider taking courses, getting a degree or certification, or participating in professional development programs.
3. Live below one's means
One of the best ways millennials can prepare for financial independence is to live below their means. That way, they can save money and build up their nest egg. Try to avoid lifestyle inflation by living simply and only spending money on essential items. Additionally, put any extra money into savings or investments to grow wealth over time.
4. Make a budget - and stick to it
Budgeting is key to financial success. By creating a budget, millennials can track their income and expenses, see where their money is going, and make adjustments as needed. There are many different ways to budget, so find a method that works and stick to it.
5. Invest early and often
The sooner millennials start investing, the better. Investing allows them to grow their money while taking less risk than stock market speculation. Over time, compounding will help investments snowball, and millennials will be well on their way to financial independence.
6. Have an emergency fund
No matter how well people plan, life can always throw unexpected expenses their way. That's why it's important to have an emergency fund to cover unexpected costs. Ideally, an emergency fund should have enough money to cover three to six months of living expenses. By having this cushion, millennials can avoid going into debt if unexpected expenses come up.
The bottom line
Following these tips can help millennials prepare for financial independence and set themselves up for a bright future. Term life insurance is just one step on the path to success, but it's an important one. By preparing now, millennials will be better equipped to weather any storms that come their way and achieve the level of financial independence they desire.

Foremost Lithium Resource & Technology Ltd. (CSE: FAT) (OTCQB: FRRSF) (FSE:F0R0) (WKN: A3DCC8) (www.foremostlithium.com) ("Foremost Lithium", "Foremost" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered in to an agreement (the "Option Agreement") with Strider Resources Ltd. ("Strider") pursuant to which the Company has the right to acquire a 100% interest in the PEG NORTH CLAIMS located in the historic Snow Lake mining district in Manitoba (the "Peg North Claims"). The Peg North Claims consist of 28 claims hosting five known pegmatite dykes, [Cerny, et. al.1981] [1] and captures the northern extension of the Crowduck Bay Fault and surrounding area, known for its lithium-enriched pegmatite dyke clusters. The acquisition pursuant to the Option Agreement will significantly expand the Company's Snow Lake lithium holdings by 16,697 acres (6,757 hectares) to an amalgamated 43,031 acres (17,414 hectares) in the prospective Snow Lake pegmatite fields. The location of the newly acquired Peg North Claims is illustrated in Figure 1 below. In connection with this important acquisition, the Company wishes to take this opportunity to provide a comprehensive update and overview of the status of each of the properties comprising the Company's impressive package of lithium and precious metals assets.
John Gravelle, President & CEO of Foremost Lithium, states: "We now hold and/or have the right to acquire an aggregate of over 43,000 acres, (17,400+ hectares) of what Foremost considers to be tier-one lithium exploration properties in Snow Lake, Manitoba. This substantial increase in hectares will add to Foremost's previously disclosed inventory of 30 high-quality drill targets to explore and develop. The electrification movement is amongst us and the increased demand for lithium will be here for decades to come. This strategic option of the Peg North Claims continues to demonstrate Foremost's commitment to deliver long-term shareholder value."
Under the terms of the Option Agreement, Foremost has the right to acquire a 100% interest in the Peg North Claims, subject only to a 2% net smelter return royalty granted to Strider (the "NSR") (the "First Option") in consideration for making aggregate cash payments of $750,000, issuing Strider common shares having an aggregate value of $750,000, and incurring an aggregate of $3,000,000 in exploration expenditures on the Peg North Claims on or before the fifth anniversary of the effective date of the Option Agreement. The Common shares will be issued at a deemed price equal to the greater of (a) the average closing price of the Company's shares on the CSE for the last 30 trading days prior to the date such shares are issued; and (b) the minimum price permitted under the policies of the stock exchange.
In connection with signing the Option Agreement, the Company will make the initial option payment to Strider of $100,000 in cash and issue Strider an aggregate of 526,316 common shares at a price of $0.19 per share.
Once the First Option has been fully exercised, the Company may, at any time prior to commencement of commercial production on the Peg North Claims, exercise a second option to acquire one half (1/2) of the NSR (1%) for a cash payment of $1,500,000.

Foremost's initial exploration plans for these claims include a LiDAR survey (to discover never-before-seen outcrops for prospecting), an airborne high-definition magnetic survey, and follow up Mobile Metal Ions soil geochemistry ground proofing of high priority magnetic anomalies. This work will be carried out to define quality drill targets.
John Gravelle, President & CEO of Foremost Lithium, continues: "Foremost's acquisition of the Peg North Claims was a priority due to its excellent exploration potential based on the northeast extension of the Crowduck Bay and related faults that host the Thompson Brothers lithium mineralized pegmatite dykes. The mapped presence of lithium bearing pegmatites east and southeast of the Peg North Claims make this property prospective for lithium bearing pegmatite dykes." Mr. Gravelle further continues: "I'd like to personally express my most sincere gratitude to Dr. Mark Fedikow, Foremost's Vice President of Exploration, and Dan Ziehlke of Strider Resources for their work to complete this transaction."

DESCRIPTION AND STATUS OF FOREMOST'S PROPERTIES
Zoro Lithium Project, Manitoba Canada
The Zoro Lithium Project is located at the east end of the 200 km long and 70 km wide Paleoproterozoic Flin Flon-Snow Lake Greenstone Belt approximately 20 km east of the historic mining town of Snow Lake (Figures 1 and 2). The project consists of 16 claims with a total of 3,603 hectares including the 100%-owned Zoro1 claim, that hosts the primary source of lithium on the property in Dyke 1, and the Green Bay and Manitoba option properties. Foremost holds the rights to 100% of the lithium resources on these properties. Nearby infrastructure includes a power line servicing the town of Snow Lake approximately 5 km south of the property, the Snow Lake airport, and an all-weather gravel road 11 km west of the property, as well as a rail link located at Wekusko Siding, 20 km to the south of Herb Lake Landing which is 30 km south of the property.
Geological Setting1
The Zoro Lithium Project is underlain by ocean floor volcanic rocks of the Roberts Lake allochthon and lesser amounts of Missi Group sedimentary rocks. The Ocean Floor rocks comprise mafic volcanic and related intrusions and the Missi Group consists of sandstone, siltstone, mudstone, and quartzo-feldspathic gneiss and migmatite. The Ocean Floor mafic volcanic rocks adjacent to the pegmatite dykes consist of a fine to medium-grained strongly foliated dark green lithology. These andesitic to basaltic lithologies are locally interbedded with volcaniclastic sedimentary rocks and all are intruded by a quartz-phyric granite intrusion (Figure 3).
Pegmatite dykes generally strike northwest to north-northwest with steep dips and crosscut the regional foliation at a low angle. The dykes tend to be concentric in internal structure and the grain size of the constituent minerals (potassium feldspar, quartz, spodumene and black tourmaline) coarsens towards the center of the dykes. This pattern may be locally interrupted by patches of saccharoidal albite, large muscovite aggregates and coarse albite stringers with garnet and beryl. Spodumene is concentrated in the cores of the dykes. Some of the dykes have been split into sub-parallel veins by post-emplacement tectonic activity.
Approach to Exploration
Integrated exploration on the project consists of soil and rock geochemical surveys, a drone magnetic survey, prospecting, and mapping all followed-up with diamond drilling. This has led to the discovery of 16 previously unknown spodumene-bearing pegmatite dykes and the delineation of multiple lithium targets. To date, 70 drill holes for 9,915 m have been completed on the property.
Source of Lithium
The principal source of lithium on the property is spodumene-bearing Dyke 1 with an inferred resource of 1,074,567 tonnes at 0.91% Li2O, 182 ppm Be, 198 ppm Cs, 51 ppm Ga, 1212 Rb, and 43 ppm Ta at a 0.3 percent Li2O cut-off .1 Please refer to the Company's NI 43-101 Technical Report titled "NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Zoro Lithium Project, Snow Lake, Manitoba" dated effective July 6, 2018, prepared by Dr. Mark Fedikow, P. Geo, and Scott Zelligan P. Geo. Tantalum mineralization has also been intersected in Dyke 1 with an assay of 0.113% Ta2O5 (cf. November 1, 2017 news release). Elsewhere on the property assays of 2.42% to 7.28% Li2O have been documented from spodumene-bearing pegmatite Dyke 5 on the property3 (cf. Green Bay Mining and Exploration Ltd. Corporation File).
Metallurgy
Preliminary metallurgical testing by SGS Canada Inc. of a spodumene concentrate from Dyke 1 indicates that a high-grade (6% Li2O) lithium concentrate can be produced from Dyke 1 mineralization using industry standard methods.2
Recent Exploration
Lithium
In 2022, a ten-hole 1,509-meter drill program was undertaken to test Mobile Metal Ion ("MMI") soil geochemical anomalies and assess the deeper levels of high-grade spodumene pegmatite Dyke 8 discovered in 2018.
The sixteenth spodumene-bearing pegmatite dyke on the Zoro property was discovered during this program. It was intersected by two drill holes (c.f. April 26, 2022, news release). DDH FM22-70 drilled at -50 degrees inclination intersected two pegmatite intercepts totaling 4.9 meters with up to 15% light green spodumene crystal aggregates. A second hole, DDHFM22-70B was drilled at a steeper inclination of -65 degrees to undercut the first pegmatite intersection. This hole intersected a five-meter intercept of the same spodumene mineralized pegmatite as hole FM22-70. The host rock to these pegmatites is a fine-grained foliated basalt. The location of Dyke 16 in relation to all other pegmatite dykes intersected on the Zoro property is illustrated in Figure 4.
Dyke 8
High-grade spodumene pegmatite Dyke 8 was discovered on the Zoro property in 2018 by the drill testing of a Mobile Metal Ions soil geochemical anomaly. Drill hole Far18-35 testing the MMI anomaly intersected 36.5 m of spodumene-bearing pegmatite. Assay results from hole FAR18-35 included three separate intercepts of high-grade lithium including 12.3 m of 1.1% Li2O, 4.4 m of 1.2% Li2O, and 2.2 m of 1.5% Li2O (cf. April 26, 2022, news release).
In 2022, DDHFM22-71 was drilled at -65 degrees to undercut the 2018 pegmatite intersections. A 4.5-meter spodumene-bearing pegmatite was intersected between 70.45 and 75.89 meters before being truncated by a fault. This intercept is 37 meters below the previous 2018 drill intercepted Dyke 8 spodumene mineralization. A further pegmatite was intersected below the fault between 84.4 and 86.65 meters.
To date, Dyke 8 has drill indicated dimensions of 120 m in length, 5-15 m in width and has been drilled to a depth of 157 m (cf. April 26, 2022, news release).
Gold
Numerous intersections of core intersected mineralized zones characterized by disseminated and veinlet arsenopyrite with lesser chalcopyrite, sphalerite, and pyrite. Mineralized sections were intersected in silicified and variably altered dacite and basalt volcanic rocks with or without quartz veins.
Assay Samples
A total of 19 core samples of pegmatite have been collected from drill core. Fourteen samples were collected from pegmatite with visible spodumene, and five samples were collected from pegmatite without visible spodumene. Nine samples were collected from lithologies other than pegmatite. Fifty-seven samples were collected from core mineralized with disseminated and stringer arsenopyrite and lesser pyrite, chalcopyrite, and sphalerite for gold assay.
After logging and photographic recording, all core samples were sawn in half and one half of the core has been shipped to Activation Laboratories (Ancaster, Ontario). Remaining drill core is stored in a secure facility in Snow Lake.
Pegmatite samples will be analysed using UT-7 lithium and related element analysis after total dissolution by sodium pyrophosphate with finish by ICP-MS. Samples for gold assay were undertaken on 30-gram samples with fire assay and finish by Instrumental Neutron Activation.
Results for all samples are pending but will be reported in a news release and on the website once available.
Future Exploration
Exploration on the property is ongoing with prospecting, mapping and geochemical surveys following up on a recently completed (June 2022) drone magnetic survey. The drone survey was completed by EarthEx Geophysical Solutions Inc. Interpreted results from the drone magnetic survey will provide the focus for ongoing exploration. A drone-assisted LiDAR survey is planned for the summer of 2022.

Jean Lake Lithium and Gold Property, Manitoba Canada
The five claim, 1002-hectare Jean Lake Lithium and Gold Property is situated in west-central Manitoba, 15 kilometers east of the historic town of Snow Lake. It is hosted by the Early Proterozoic (1.832 Ga) Rex Lake Plutonic Complex which is a circular intrusion 8 km in diameter. The property hosts the historic west-northwest striking Beryl lithium pegmatites rediscovered in August of 2021 in blasted trenches beneath 80 years of organic deadfall and glacial sediment. The 270-degree trending dykes are characterized by coarse grained light green spodumene crystals in a matrix of potassium feldspar, quartz, and muscovite. The host rocks are coarsely porphyritic gabbro. The property also hosts the shear zone-hosted Sparky Gold Occurrence discovered in 1918. The gold mineralization is associated with disseminated and near-solid fracture fillings consisting of fine-grained to blocky arsenopyrite with lesser pyrite and chalcopyrite hosted within sheared and silicified massive basalt and gabbro.
The location of the Beryl Pegmatites ("B1" and "B2") is illustrated on a Jean Lake claim map in Figure 1. B3 is a pegmatite without visible spodumene.
Recent Exploration
Lithium
Five representative rock chip samples of spodumene-bearing mineralization were collected in August, 2021 from blast material in two trenched locations of the Beryl Pegmatites. Two of the samples were apple green, coarse grained spodumene (Far21-1 and -2)) and three samples were from straw-coloured, finer grained spodumene (Far21-3,4 and 5)).
Samples were shipped to Activation Laboratories in Ancaster (Ontario) for analysis, applying the UT-7 method which uses a total dissolution of the sample by sodium peroxide fusion and ICP-MS finish. This analytical approach is the standard analytical technique employed by the Company on its Zoro and Jean Lake lithium projects for the analysis of pegmatite.
Results indicate all samples returned high-grade lithium contents regardless of the textural characteristics of the spodumene (Table 1).
Table 1. Lithium analyses for two styles of spodumene mineralization at the Beryl Pegmatite,
Jean Lake Property, Snow Lake area, Manitoba.
Gold
Fifteen representative rock chip samples from the Sparky Occurrence returned assay results with maximum contents of 20.9 g/t gold (Table 2). All but one sample exceeded 1 g/t gold. Grab samples representative of mineralization exposed in outcrop and in pits were collected from pervasively silicified wall rock containing brecciated and mineralized quartz veins. The deformation observed in the rocks sampled is attributed to faults cutting the eastern portion of the Rex Lake Pluton which is bounded on the east by the crustal scale Crowduck Bay Fault.
Gold assays are determined by fire assay using a 30-gram sample followed by an instrumental neutron activation finish.

Grass River Claims Property (GRC) Manitoba, Canada
The recently acquired Grass River Claims Property consists of 27 claims totaling 14,873 acres located 30 km east of the historic town of Snow Lake and 6.5 kilometers east of the Company's Zoro Lithium Project. The GRC hosts multiple pegmatites exposed in outcrop and 7 drill-indicated spodumene-bearing pegmatite dykes.
The bulk of mineral exploration in the Snow Lake area was undertaken in the late 1950's and was primarily designed to assess the general area for base metal massive sulphide mineralization. Ground geophysical surveys (electromagnetics and magnetics) were the primary tool coupled with boots on the ground prospecting. Many holes were drilled to assess base metal environments. During the drilling of geophysical targets, several spodumene pegmatites were intersected1.
A total of 10 pegmatites are exposed in surface outcrop on the property and together with the 7 drill-indicated spodumene-bearing dykes (Figure 1) will be part of the exploration focus in 2022. Ongoing data interpretation of results from a drone-assisted magnetic survey completed by EarthEx Geophysical Solutions Inc. in June of 2022 will guide follow-up prospecting and geochemical surveys expected to commence in July of 2022. These surveys will be supplemented with a drone-assisted LiDAR survey planned for July 2022. A drill program is planned for later in the year
Results of the magnetic and LIDAR surveys will be released in a news release and on the Company's website when complete.

The Hidden Lake Lithium Property Northwest Territories, Canada
The Hidden Lake Lithium Property is located 45 km east of Yellowknife, NWT (Figure 1) and consists of 5 contiguous claims, totaling 1,659.29 hectares (Figure 2). The property is just north of Highway 4 (Ingraham Trail) providing excellent access. The exploration target on the property is lithium-bearing spodumene pegmatite dykes which are visible from aerial imagery as elongated white linear features visible through vegetation and soil due to their high reflectance.
Geological Setting
The Hidden Lake Property lies within the southern Archean Slave Craton of the Canadian Shield which is comprised of Mesoarchean gneissic basement covered by the Neoarchean Yellowknife Supergroup supracrustal assemblage. The Yellowknife Supergroup consists of a thick sequence of metavolcanic rock and metasedimentary rock which is dominated by a regionally homogenous sequence of interbedded greywacke-mudstone turbidites of the multiply deformed Burwash Formation east of Yellowknife (Figure 3). This region was subsequently intruded by the Prosperous suite of S-type biotite muscovite leucogranite plutons which are spatially associated with granitic pegmatites.
Granitic Pegmatites
These pegmatites intrude both the surrounding Burwash Formation and the granitic plutons and form the Yellowknife Pegmatite Field. Depending on their proximity to the granite intrusion, the pegmatite complexes commonly show regional zoning in their mineralization and can be rare element bearing. Lithium enrichment occurs in an outer zone typically 2 to 3 kms from the intrusion accompanied by Be, Ta, Nb and Ca enrichment (Sinclair, 1996).
The lithium bearing pegmatites that are targeted for exploration are white to light grey, coarse to very coarse-grained, and comprised of K-feldspar (microcline), plagioclase (albite), quartz, muscovite and spodumene with trace amounts of apatite, biotite, tourmaline, columbite and montebrasite. The dykes consist of long, discontinuous bodies oriented in an NNE-SSW direction (between 010° and 020°) and range from 3 to 11 m wide and 300 to 800 m long. The bodies are zoned and spodumene content typically ranges from 10% to 20% by volume, with up to 35% locally within the center of the bodies. Spodumene crystals were green to light greenish grey, up to 60 cm long and were typically oriented parallel to the dyke boundaries along the edges and perpendicular to the boundaries in the center of the dykes (Sinclair, 1996).
Historic Work
Initial prospecting of the Yellowknife district originated when rare-element pegmatites were first discovered in the 1930's, followed by the discovery of lithium-bearing pegmatites in the 1950's. The most significant historic exploration carried out on the property has been undertaken on the D12 pegmatite that was first discovered by the Geological Survey of Canada in1947. It is described as a 1,000 ft. long and 30 ft. wide, spodumene-bearing pegmatite dyke. It has since been subjected to trenching and detailed mapping1. In 1978, Canadian Superior Exploration Ltd. mapped and sampled several spodumene-bearing dykes on and surrounding the current Property, the largest of which was D122. Chip samples collected from the historic trenches at D12 yielded 1.37% to 3.01% Li2O (NWT Geoscience Detailed Showing Report ID 085INW0042).
2016 Exploration
Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd. (Dahrouge) undertook exploration work in 2016 and 2017 on behalf of 92 Resources Corporation3. This work consisted of prospecting, grab sampling, detailed mapping, and channel sampling. Only the results of the 2016 program are relevant to the Hidden Lake Property.
Prospecting in May of 2016 included outcrop examination and the collection of 5 grab samples from the D12 dyke. The samples were sealed in labelled bags and shipped to Activation Labs Ltd. (ActLabs), in Kamloops, B.C., where they were analyzed using the sodium peroxide fusion ICP-OES + ICP-MS Ultratrace 7 package (UT-7). Those samples with a Li value above the detection limit of 10,000 ppm underwent the sodium peroxide fusion ICP-OES lithium ore analysis package (Code 8 Li Ore).
Subsequently a channel sampling program was completed between August 16th and September 7th, 2016. A total of 308 channel samples were collected from 61 channels cut across dykes D12, HL1, HL3 and HL4 Table 1.
Table 1: 2016 channel sampling details.
Results
In 2016 a total of 5 grab samples and 308 channel samples were collected during the two Hidden Lake field programs carried out in 2016. Five grab samples from dyke D12 assayed 1.63 - 3.06% Li2O. Channel sample results were presented as weighted averages for individual channels for each dyke. The thickest section of D12 was 11.58 m wide and returned a weighted average of 1.53% Li2O and included a 9.02 m section of 1.90% Li2O. A channel from the HL1 dyke assayed 1.26% Li2O over 8.72 m and an 8.78 m channel from the HL3 dyke assayed 1.58% Li2O. A 5.78 m channel from HL4 assayed the highest Li2O of 1.71% over 5.78 m. Significant grades of tantalum were recorded with an average of 54 pm Ta2O5 for the four dykes. The maximum value was 402 ppm.
2018 Exploration
Dahrouge also undertook an exploration program in 2018 on behalf of Foremost Resources4. The purpose of the drilling was to test the vertical continuity of spodumene mineralization in the subsurface. This work took place between May 22nd and June 10th, 2018 and consisted of 1079.37 m of core drilled in ten drill holes on pegmatite dykes HL-001 through HL-003 and D-12 (Figure 4). A total of 197 core samples were collected and submitted for assay at SGS Mineral Services Lakefield facility. Intersected pegmatites were typically composed of quartz, plagioclase, feldspar, muscovite, spodumene and accessory minerals consisting of tourmaline and epidote.
Drill hole specific information including core samples collected for assay is provided in Table 2.
Table 2: Pegmatite intersection and sample collection summary.
Results
Pegmatites intersected in this drill program were marked by fine to very coarse grained spodumene crystals varying from 7-10 modal percent in dyke HL3 to 15-25% modal percent spodumene crystals in dyke D12.
All spodumene-bearing dykes tested during the 2018 drill program intersected high-grade 1.0-2.0% Li2O over individual widths that varied from 2.0 to 9.2 m or total widths of between 3.79 m and 15.10 m (Table 3; cf. September 10, 2018, news release). The assay results for 2018 drill core confirm the presence of high grade spodumene-bearing pegmatite dykes on the property and reflect the historic assay results from 2016 surface channel samples.
Table 3. Summary of assay results, 2018 Hidden Lake drill program.
Assay
Pegmatite intersections in the drill core were sawn in half with one half of the sample collected for assay. The samples were shipped to Activation Laboratories (Ancaster, Ontario) digested with a sodium peroxide fusion followed by ICP-OES/MS analysis. Assay results are summarized in Table 3.
Future Exploration
Future exploration is planned to expand the lithium resource at Hidden Lake with additional diamond drilling based on an integrated exploration plan using state-of-the-art drone assisted geophysical surveys and rock and soil geochemical techniques.

WINSTON PROPERTY NEW MEXICO, UNITED STATES
Dr. Michael Feinstein, CPG, QP, has visited the Winston Project area on ten separate occasions since October 2020. He conducted confirmatory sampling of the known historic mines, as well sampling the prominent structural trends along strike.
All samples were collected under the direct supervision of Dr. Michael Feinstein, and securely transported to the Tucson facility of ALS Laboratories for analysis. Ore characterization samples from these three mines returned peak values of: 66.5 g/t gold with 2,940 g/t silver from Little Granite, 26.8 g/t gold and 940 g/t silver from Ivanhoe, and 44.9 g/t gold and 517 g/t silver from Emporia.
This sampling confirmed the occurrence of high-grade material at all three of the historic mines, but also in several locations away from these areas. Foremost expanded its footprint, increasing the property from 415 acres to 2,980 acres, and increased its mineral rights from 14 to 150 BLM Lode Mining Claims. Previously, no modern exploration efforts have systemically assessed the northern portion of the Chloride District.
Project Highlights
The project has contiguous landholdings totaling approximately 150 claims covering almost 3,000 acres. Claims are targeted along footprint of mineralization extending for more than 8 km of strike.
Historic drilling in early 1980s suggests potential for high-grade ore shoots within larger mineralized envelopes. The Chloride District saw a rush of miners and prospectors in the 1860s-1890s, a period of renewed mining activity in the 1980s, and has been largely unexplored by modern methods.
Potential for District-Scale discovery in a Precious Metal Endowed Low-Sulphidation Epithermal Vein System.
Ground geological mapping and surveying has utilized high resolution satellite imagery and LiDAR (laser-generated infrared light beams) to construct a detailed digital model of the area. This 3D GIS will be used for all drill targeting and project planning. Special attention will be given to maintaining a high level of vertical accuracy due to the local topography.
Exceptional results from property-wide confirmatory sampling completed in 2021 include:
-Measured width Highlights:
3.35 g/t Au with 245 g/t Ag from a 0.3m channel sample inside the Little Granite Decline.
1.97 g/t Au with 232 g/t Ag from a 0.3m channel sample across JAP vein at LG mine.
29.2 g/t Au with 462 g/t Ag from a 0.6m continuous chip sample in north zone.
3.2 g/t Au with 34 g/t Ag from a 1.0m continuous chip sample in north zone.
0.75 g/t Au with 489 g/t Ag from a 0.3m continuous chip sample in north zone.
-Prospecting Highlights:
Sample 1671079 collected at a prospect pit in recently staked ground returned 41.5 g/t Au with 4,610.0 g/t Ag.
Samples 1671021, 1671024, 1671027 were collected from the same vein trend over 300m of strike
#1671021 returned 20.6 g/t Au with 21.0 g/t Ag.
#1671024 returned 12.3 g/t Au with 381.0 g/t Ag.
#1671027 returned 5.7 g/t Au with 254.0 g/t Ag.
For the 155 samples across the project, gold values range from Below Detection (BD;
Geological Setting of the Winston Project
The Winston Project, situated in the historic Black Range Mining District of southwestern New Mexico, covers 36 square kilometers of the northern portion of the Chloride District. High-grade deposits of silver and gold were discovered in 1880 and the area was a major producer until the 1893 silver price crash. Little production or modern exploration has occurred since.
The mineralization is of the well-documented Low-Sulphidation Epithermal type. Deposits of this style are emplaced throughout the Cordillera of North and South America and elsewhere in similar tectonic settings. This style of mineralization is known world-wide and hosts some of the highest-grade gold/silver mines, such as: Hishikari in Japan, Fruta del Norte in Ecuador and Round Mountain in Nevada.
On the Winston Property, the primary structure is the Paymaster Fault which is readily traced both on the ground and by satellite imagery. Locally, the mineralized veins are generally associated with north-south trending structures. The overall controlling geological feature is known as the Rio Grande Rift, which extends into northern Mexico hosting several past and present silver mines.
Foremost's Winston Project enjoys a close association with volcanic host rocks which formed at a similar time as the mineralization. Individual mines and prospects generally show strong controlling geological structures, typically north-south high angle faulting associated with the Rio Grande Rift (RGR). The RGR is a crustal-scale feature which extends over 1,200 kilometers, from northern Mexico to central Colorado.
Precious metal deposits of note along the RGR include the historic Creede Mining District in southwestern Colorado. The timing of mineralization is within several million years of that on the Winston Project, where alteration minerals have been dated at approximately 26.5 Ma. The Creede District has recorded production of over 84 million ounces of silver. Hecla Mining Corp., a premier US silver producer, is undertaking a major effort in the Creede District to bring a new mining complex online.
Located 100km to the east, The Mogollon District in western New Mexico has produced more than 13 million ounces silver and 270k ounces old. Mineralization is of the same Low-Sulphidation Epithermal Vein Type. Summa Silver is currently exploring the Mogollon Camp.
Little Granite Mine
The Little Granite Mine is a past-producing high-grade silver-gold mine hosted in Tertiary volcanics. The main vein has been traced for over 200 meters by past drilling and underground workings and remains open along strike to both the north and south, and at depth. Historically reported high-grade values were confirmed in limited re-sampling by Foremost in late 2020. Historic drill reports suggest the primary vein widens to more than 4m (12ft) true width, at depth.
Ivanhoe - Emporia Mines
The Ivanhoe - Emporia is a past producing gold-silver mine. Its main shaft was sunk to 384 feet depth with a 370 ft. decline and multiple working levels. There is potential for large tonnage of lower grade, stockwork veins surrounding high grade veins mined in the past. The strike continuation needs to be explored as favorable structural conditions persist along the bends and jobs of the Paymaster Fault.
Conclusion
Foremost is committed to commence a drill program in 2022 on multiple targets on the property. Past preparatory work for drilling has included data compilation both of historic and recent work, along with acquisition of high-resolution LiDAR data to allow construction of an accurate terrane model. This property had little to no modern exploration since the early 1980s and with such high-grade samples returned, the Company is keen to see the full potential from the Winston Gold/Silver Project.
There has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource. The potential quantities and associated grades have not been defined by drilling, but historic production in the district reflects the potential scope of orebodies which may be encountered. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in the delineation of a mineral resource.

Some countries have taken unprecedented steps to expand access to abortion in recent years, but international rights groups have long warned that overturning Roe v. Wade could weaken abortion rights around the world, potentially leading some nations to adopt new restrictive laws.
As NPR's Ayana Archie and Joe Hernandez report:
Many countries are expanding abortion access
Ireland legalized abortion in 2019, Argentina legalized it in 2020, New Zealand decriminalized abortion in 2020 and Mexico's Supreme Court voted to decriminalize it last year. In February, Colombia's highest court legalized abortion until 24 weeks of pregnancy.
Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International and the Global Justice Center said in a joint brief that 60% of women of reproductive age live in countries where abortion is available.
"Only 26 countries, representing 5% of women of reproductive age, ban or prohibit abortion altogether," they wrote.
The brief adds that 34 of the 36 countries that the United Nations classifies as "economically developed" — including the U.S. — make abortions accessible. Poland and Malta were the lone exceptions.
The groups also note that the U.S. has signed several international treaties (including the U.N.'s International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights) that include the right to nondiscrimination; the right to be free from torture and other cruel, inhumane, or degrading treatment or punishment; the right to privacy; and the right to life.
By restricting access to abortions, the organizations argue, people will be forced to seek out unsafe and unsanitary procedures — therefore jeopardizing their right to life.
But those looking to crack down on abortion could use the U.S. as an example
Human rights advocates say the reversal of Roe not only would damage the perception of the U.S. on the world stage, but also could lead some countries to adopt more restrictive laws of their own.
Licha Nyiendo, chief legal officer of the group Human Rights First, wrote in a statement after the draft opinion leak that such a move constituted a "step in a very dangerous direction for everyone in the United States and a frightening signal to authoritarians around the world that they can strip long-established rights from their countries' people."
Tarah Demant, Amnesty International's interim national director for programs, advocacy and government affairs, told NPR that other countries could point to the U.S. to legitimize their own restrictive policies.
Take Poland for example, she said: The country has faced criticism from the European Union for severely limiting abortion, but soon could argue that the bloc's close ally has done nearly the same thing.
"You're looking at an emboldened anti-rights movement," Demant said.
