WELLINGTON: The
New Zealand housing market may no longer be a one-way bet, the chief economist of the country's central bank said, warning that changing dynamics in the sector would act as a handbrake on hefty returns.
"For several decades, we have traded houses among ourselves at ever-increasing prices in the belief that we were creating prosperity,"
Reserve Bank of New Zealand Chief Economist
Paul Conway said in a speech released on Thursday.
"But the tide may well have turned against housing being a one-way bet for a generation of Kiwis," he added.
Conway said slower overall population growth and changes in taxation make it less attractive to invest in housing while policy designed to enable higher housing density are all altering the property market dynamics.
"Given the importance of housing in our economy and national psyche, this will be a huge change," he said.
House prices in New Zealand jumped more than 40% in the two years to December 2021. However, a combination of tighter credit, more housing and rising mortgage rates have started to weigh on prices.
Conway said even though the market has recently turned, with house prices down over the first half of 2022, property values remain at very high levels in absolute terms and relative to incomes.
The central bank forecasts a 15% decline in house prices from their peak in late 2021. | https://realty.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/industry/new-zealand-central-banks-chief-economist-warns-housing-no-longer-one-way-bet/92574304 | 2022-06-30T16:31:05Z | https://realty.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/industry/new-zealand-central-banks-chief-economist-warns-housing-no-longer-one-way-bet/92574304 | true | 2 |
Supreme Court: Biden properly ended Trump-era asylum policy
By JESSICA GRESKO
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that the Biden administration properly ended a Trump-era policy forcing some U.S. asylum-seekers to wait in Mexico.
The justices’ 5-4 decision for the administration came in a case about the “Remain in Mexico” policy under President Donald Trump. Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the decision and was joined by fellow conservative Justice Brett Kavanaugh as well as the court’s three liberal justices — Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.
President Joe Biden suspended the program on his first day in office in January 2021. But lower courts ordered it reinstated in response to a lawsuit from Republican-led Texas and Missouri. The current administration has sent far fewer people back to Mexico than did the Trump administration.
The heart of the legal fight was about whether immigration authorities, with far less detention capacity than needed, had to send people to Mexico or whether they had the discretion under federal law to release asylum-seekers into the United States while they awaited their hearings.
About 70,000 people were enrolled in the program, formally known as Migrant Protection Protocols, after President Donald Trump launched it in 2019 and made it a centerpiece of efforts to deter asylum-seekers.
After Biden’s suspension of the program, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas ended it in June 2021. In October, the department produced additional justifications for the policy’s demise, to no avail in the courts.
The program resumed in December, but barely 3,000 migrants had enrolled by the end of March, during a period when authorities stopped migrants about 700,000 times at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Democratic-led states and progressive groups were on the administration’s side. Republican-run states and conservative groups sided with Texas and Missouri.
The case is Biden v. Texas, 21-954. | https://kesq.com/news/ap-california/2022/06/30/supreme-court-biden-properly-ended-trump-era-asylum-policy-2/ | 2022-06-30T16:31:24Z | https://kesq.com/news/ap-california/2022/06/30/supreme-court-biden-properly-ended-trump-era-asylum-policy-2/ | true | 22 |
LONDON, June 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- According to The Business Research Company’s research report on the seeds market, the high adoption of biotech crops is significantly contributing to the growth of the seeds market. Biotech crops are genetically modified crops that involve technology to produce a GM plant. The high adoption of biotech crops is promoting the production of a large number of seeds to meet the demand.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court said Thursday that gun cases involving restrictions in Hawaii, California, New Jersey and Maryland deserve a new look following its major decision in a gun case last week.
In light of last week's ruling — which said that Americans have a right to carry a gun outside the home — lower courts should take another look at several cases that had been awaiting action by the high court, the court said. Those cases include ones about high-capacity magazines, an assault weapons ban and a state law that limits who can carry a gun outside the home.
The justices, in a 6-3 decision, last week struck down a New York law that required people to show “proper cause,” a specific need to carry a gun, if they wanted to carry a gun in public. Half a dozen states have similar laws that were called into question by the ruling.
In the New York case, the court's conservative majority gave lower courts new guidance about how to evaluate gun restrictions. The justices rejected a two-step approach appeals courts had previously used as having one step too many. They said courts assessing modern firearms regulations should just ask whether they are “consistent with the Second Amendment’s text and historical understanding.”
Sending other gun cases back to lower courts gives them the opportunity to apply that new guidance.
One of the cases the justices sent back to a lower court Thursday involved a Hawaii statute similar to New York's. In that case, a panel of 11 judges on the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals had ruled in 2021 that the right to “keep and bear arms” in the Constitution's Second Amendment “does not guarantee an unfettered, general right to openly carry arms in public for individual self-defense.” But the high court said in its latest gun case that the Constitution protects “an individual’s right to carry a handgun for self-defense outside the home.” A lower court will now have to revisit the Hawaii ruling.
The high court also told federal appeals courts to revisit cases involving laws in California and New Jersey that limit the number of bullets a gun magazine can hold. A 2018 New Jersey law limits most gun owners to magazines that hold up to 10 rounds of ammunition instead of the 15-round limit in place since 1990. A lower court upheld the law.
California law also bans magazines holding more than 10 bullets. A panel of 11 judges on the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 7-4 last year to uphold California’s ban.
The justices also sent back for further review a case from Maryland that challenged the state's 2013 ban on 45 kinds of assault weapons. The high court had in 2017 turned away a previous challenge to the law. | https://www.stamfordadvocate.com/news/article/Supreme-Court-says-several-gun-cases-deserve-a-17276687.php | 2022-06-30T16:34:29Z | https://www.stamfordadvocate.com/news/article/Supreme-Court-says-several-gun-cases-deserve-a-17276687.php | true | 33 |
U.S. regulator finds unsafe conditions at Freeport LNG export facility, bars restart
Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.com
HOUSTON, June 30 (Reuters) - A U.S. pipeline safety regulator on Thursday said it found unsafe conditions at a Texas liquefied natural gas export facility and will not allow owner Freeport LNG to restart the plant until an outside analysis is complete.
A June 8 blast and fire knocked out Freeport LNG's Quintana plant, which exports about 15 million tonnes per year of the chilled fuel. The preliminary finding by the U.S. Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) indicates a partial restart could not happen before September.
"Continued operation of Freeport's LNG export facility without corrective measures may pose an integrity risk to public safety," PHMSA said in its preliminary report.

A Freeport LNG spokesperson did not immediately reply to a request for comment.
The closely-held company has said the likely cause of the blast was an over-pressurized pipeline and that the plant's ability to chill natural gas into a liquid for export was not damaged. read more
An isolated safety valve led a 300-foot pipe to become overpressurized, releasing LNG and methane into the facility and leading to the blast, PHMSA said in its report.
The outage of an export facility that was a major consumer of U.S. natural gas has sharply cut domestic prices . On Thursday, prices for August delivery fell 7% to $6.050 per million British thermal units with the contract on track for a monthly drop of 26%.

Motorola was broken up into a number of different divisions about 10 years ago, but the Motorola Mobility division still makes smartphones, as well as smart devices for the home, including its new MH7600 mesh Wi-Fi routers.
Strictly speaking, though, the MH7600 range is actually produced by another company called Minim, which is licensed to use the Motorola logo and brand name, with its networking products sold directly from the Motorola website and other online retailers.
Despite Motorola’s claims of “blazing fast” Wi-Fi performance, the MH7600 mesh routers are actually fairly modest, offering dual-band Wi-Fi 6 with a top speed of 1800Mbps.
Even so, that’s fast enough for most domestic broadband services, and the routers are competitively priced and easy to use.
Motorola MH7603 review: Price and availability
- Prices start at $129.99/£110/AU$180
- Available now in the US - TBC in other regions
It’s possible to buy a single mesh router on its own, referred to as the MH7601, for $129.99, or two routers (MH7602) for $189, which should be able to cover homes of up to 3,500 sq.ft in size.
However, we reviewed the top-of-the-range MH7603, which includes three mesh routers that are capable of covering up to 5,000 sq.ft for $239.
That works out at approximately £200/AU$335, although the MH7600 routers haven’t yet received regulatory approval in those regions, so it may take a while for the routers to go on sale outside the US.
Motorola MH7603 review: Design
- Compact design
- Sturdily built
- Easy to use app
The three routers included in the MH7603 are identical, with a neat, circular design that looks like a little jewelry box.
They’re sturdily built, despite the relatively low price, and stand just 66mm high and 127mm in diameter, so they can easily sit on any convenient shelf or table when you set them up. Tucked around the back of each router you’ll find one Gigabit Ethernet port for connecting to your existing broadband router or modem, with a second Ethernet port providing a wired connection for devices such as laptops or games consoles.
Getting started is very straightforward, thanks to the Motosync app - which is also designed by Minim. There are QR codes printed on each of the three routers, so you can simply scan these codes and the app will automatically link the routers together to create your new mesh network for you.
There are some useful features in the app too, including a speed test that can tell you if your network can handle different types of tasks, such as gaming or streaming 4K video. The app also includes content filters that can block adult web sites and other types of material that might be unsuitable for children - and, thankfully, Motorola/Minim doesn’t charge you any extra for these features, as some of its rivals do.
However, the simplicity of the app does mean that it has some limitations. The app just creates a single network that merges the 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz bands, so more experienced users might prefer a mesh system that provides greater control over network settings.
Motorola MH7603 review: Performance
- Fast, reliable mesh Wi-Fi
- Routers also support wired connections
Ookla Speed Test - 2.4/5GHz (download/upload)
Within 5ft, no obstructions: 100Mbps/11Mbps
Within 30ft, three partition walls: 100Mbps/11Mbps
20GB Steam Download - 2.4GHz/5Ghz
Within 5ft, no obstructions: 12.5MB/s
Within 30ft, three partition walls: 12.5MB/s
We set up the three Motorola mesh routers with the first connected to our normal broadband router, so that it could use our existing broadband connection.
The second router was placed in a back office where the Wi-Fi is so poor that we normally rely on a set of powerline adapters to provide a reliable wired connection, while the third router was placed in a hallway between the other two.
A top speed of 1.8Gbps is relatively modest for routers that support Wi-Fi 6, but the MH7603 proved perfectly capable of providing a fast, reliable Wi-Fi signal to that back office.
As expected, devices in the same room as our normal router provided speeds of 100Mbps when running the Ookla Speed Test, and 12.5Mb/s for Steam downloads. Those are the fastest speeds supported by our office broadband service, but the MH7603 didn’t falter at all as I picked up my laptop and wandered along the hall to that back office, maintaining the same speeds for both Ookla and Steam with no trouble at all.

Berlin prepares ‘huge thermos’ to help heat homes in winter
A vast “thermos” that will store millions of gallons of hot water to help heat homes in Berlin this winter has been unveiled.
The huge insulated water tank located at the Reuter power station uses excess electricity from solar and wind power plants across Germany.
The head of Swedish utility company Vattenfall’s heat unit in Germany said that the facility can help smooth out the fluctuating energy provided by renewables while providing reliable heat to hundreds of thousands of households.
The 52 million dollar tower will be Europe’s biggest heat storage facility when it is completed at the end of this year, and even bigger one is already being planned in the Netherlands.
With a height of almost 150 feet and holding up to 14.8 million gallons of hot water, Vattenfall said the tower will help heat Berlin homes this winter even if Russian gas supplies dry up.
“It’s a huge thermos that helps us to store the heat when we don’t need it,” said Tanja Wielgoss, who heads the Sweden-based company’s heat unit in Germany. “And then we can release it when we need to use it.”
While district heating systems fuelled by coal, gas or waste have been around for more than a century, most are not designed to store significant amounts of heat.
By contrast, the new facility unveiled on Thursday will hold water brought to almost boiling temperature with excess electricity from plants across Germany.
“Sometimes you have an abundance of electricity in the grids that you cannot use anymore, and then you need to turn off the wind turbines,” said Wielgoss. “Where we are standing we can take in this electricity.”
The facility will have a thermal capacity of 200 Megawatts – enough to meet much of Berlin’s hot water needs during the summer and about 10% of what it requires in the winter.
The vast, insulated tank can keep water hot for up to 13 hours, helping bridge short periods when there is little wind or sun.
It will also be able to use other sources of heat – such as that extracted from wastewater, said Ms Wielgoss.
Berlin’s top climate official, Bettina Jarasch, said the faster such heat storage systems are built, the better.
“Due to its geographic location the Berlin region is even more dependent on Russian fossil fuels than other parts of Germany,” she said.
“That’s why we’re really in a hurry here. The war in Ukraine and the energy crisis teach us that we need to be faster.
“First of all to become climate neutral. And secondly, to become independent.”

Laundrie left a new cellphone at home before he went for a hike in the Carlton Reserve on Sept. 14, Laundrie family attorney Steven Bertolino confirmed to ABC News.
The phone was purchased on Sept. 4, Bertolino said, three days after Laundrie returned to his home in North Port from a cross-country trip. Laundrie opened an account with AT&T and the phone wasn't a burner, Bertolino said.
The FBI now has the phone, according to Bertolino. The FBI had no comment to ABC News.
Petito went missing on a cross-country trip, and her parents, who live in Long Island, New York, reported her missing on Sept. 11 after not hearing from her for two weeks. Authorities confirmed Sept. 21 that her body was discovered in the Bridger-Teton National Forest in Wyoming.
WATCH: Tracking the Gabby Petito disappearance
The search for the 23-year-old Laundrie is centered around North Port, Florida, where investigators said Laundrie returned to his home on Sept. 1 without Petito but driving her 2012 Ford Transit. Laundrie has refused to speak to the police and has not been seen since Tuesday, Sept. 14, according to law enforcement officials. He now has a warrant out for his arrest in Wyoming.
The search for Laundrie is the latest twist in the case that has grabbed national attention as he and Petito had been traveling across the country since June, documenting the trip on social media.
Brian Laundrie and parents went camping after he returned home without Gabby Petito
The nationwide search for Laundrie has turned to a Florida campground, where the wanted fugitive's family attorney confirmed to ABC News he went camping with his parents about a week after returning home from his trip without Petito.
Bertolino said Brian Laundrie, his father, Christopher, and mother, Roberta, all went camping in early September at the Fort De Soto Park in Pinellas County.
Bertolino confirmed the family went on the camping trip after ABC affiliate station WFTS in Tampa obtained the Fort De Soto Park reservation log under the Freedom of Information Act, which showed Roberta Laundrie checked in on Sept. 6 and checked out on Sept. 8.
ABC affiliate station WZVN in Fort Myers spoke to a local family who stayed in an adjacent campsite at the same time. The couple, Marci and Kenny Newsom, said they took a selfie on their trip that captured a man in the background who they believe could be Brian Laundrie.
"They keep to themselves. They were there until they weren't," Marci Newsom told WZVN.
ABC7's @MeganMyersNews talked to the Newsom family tonight. The family's from Fort Myers. They camped next to the Laundries & confirmed the family was there.

"They kept to themselves," said Marcy Newsom. "They were there & then they weren't."

A Pinellas County Sheriff's Office helicopter was spotted circling Fort De Soto Park Monday night between 11:40 p.m. until 12:40 a.m., WFTS reported. The sheriff's office only said the helicopter search of the park was part of an active investigation.
Bertolino said Laundrie returned to his family's home in North Port, Florida, following the camping excursion. The parents, through their attorney, denied doing anything to help their son elude the FBI.
Reality TV-star Duane Chapman, better known as "Dog the Bounty Hunter," had joined the search for Laundrie and told Fox News he also got a tip about the family's Fort De Soto Park camping trip.
"They were registered and they went through the gate on camera. Allegedly what we're hearing is two people left on [Sept. 8]. Three people came on [Sept. 6] and two people left on the 8th. I think he's been here for sure," he said.
Laundrie family reiterate they do not know son's whereabouts
The Laundrie family issued a statement Monday evening through their attorney reiterating they do not know Brian Laundrie's whereabouts.
"They are concerned about Brian and hope the FBI can locate him," the statement reads. "The speculation by the public and some in the press that the parents assisted Brian in leaving the family home or in avoiding arrest on a warrant that was issued after Brian had already been missing for several days is just wrong."
Their family attorney also released a statement Sunday afternoon and provided an update on the FBI's investigation into Petito's death.
He said the FBI returned to the Laundrie house and requested "some personal items belonging to Brian Laundrie to assist them with DNA matching."
"Brian's parents provided the FBI with what they could," the attorney said in a statement.

Petito's dad: Give same attention to all missing people
Petito's family Tuesday implored the public and news media to put the same energy into helping find other missing people as they did Petito.
Petito's parents and stepparents spoke to reporters at a news conference in Bohemia, New York -- showing off fresh tattoos based on her designs and mantra "Let it be."
Joseph Petito thanked the news media and social media for spotlighting his daughter's disappearance, but he said all missing persons deserved the same attention.
"I want to ask everyone to help all the people that are missing and need help. It's on all of you, everyone that's in this room to do that," he said, pointing to reporters and cameras in front of him. "And if you don't do that for other people that are missing, that's a shame, because it's not just Gabby that deserves it."

Tweaked COVID boosters in US must target newer omicron types
(AP) - U.S. regulators told COVID-19 vaccine makers Thursday that any booster shots tweaked for the fall will have to add protection against the newest omicron relatives.
The Food and Drug Administration said the original vaccines would be used for anyone still getting their first series of shots. But with immunity waning and the super-contagious omicron family of variants getting better at dodging protection, the FDA decided boosters intended for fall needed an update.
The recipe: Combination shots that add protection against the omicron relatives named BA.4 and BA.5 to the original vaccine. Those mutants together now account for just over half of new U.S. infections.
It’s still a gamble as there’s no way to know if an omicron relative still will be a threat as cold weather approaches or if a newer mutant will take its place. And the current Pfizer and Moderna vaccines still offer strong protection against COVID-19′s worst outcomes as long as people have gotten already recommended boosters.
But the combination approach, what scientists call “bivalent” shots, would allow the boosters to retain the proven benefits of the original vaccine while adding to its breadth of protection. It’s a common vaccine strategy: Flu shots, for instance, can protect against four influenza strains and are tweaked annually depending on what’s circulating.
The FDA’s decision comes after its scientific advisers earlier this week recommended that any boosters for a fall campaign should contain some version of omicron -- but left undecided whether it should be the omicron mutant that caused last winter’s surge or the genetically distinct relatives that have replaced it.
Pfizer and Moderna already were brewing and testing boosters updated against the first omicron mutant in anticipation of an October rollout. They found adding the extra protection was safe — and spurred production of more omicron-fighting antibodies than just getting another dose of today’s vaccine.
Pfizer had begun work on another experimental dose to target the newer strains the FDA ultimately settled on.
“We’re continuing to collect more data from our study on BA.4/5 and will be in touch as soon as we are ready to submit,” Pfizer spokeswoman Jerica Pitts said in an emailed message.
Moderna told FDA’s advisers that switching to the even newer strains now circulating might delay its booster update another month. Moderna didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment Thursday.
The FDA’s order doesn’t guarantee that those combo shots would be offered in the fall. Manufacturers still have to provide key data before the agency decides whether to authorize modified boosters -- and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention then would have to decide how they’re used.
For now, an all-important first booster of current vaccine already is urged for all Americans age 5 and older. People 50 and older are eligible for a second booster. With omicron, authorities say the shots’ protection against COVID-19 hospitalization, while still robust, has slipped some in older adults and a second booster can help restore it.

Efe Obada says NFL has become part of 'British culture'; Russell Wilson amazed by international growth
Little Ealing Primary School of West London emerged victorious at Wednesday's Flag Football National Championship to secure a place at the NFL Flag Championship at the 2023 Pro Bowl in Las Vegas
Last Updated: 30/06/22 4:40pm
The NFL's growth in the UK can be measured in TV figures, in ticket sales, in jerseys purchased, in Flag Football participation, in social media following, or in Efe Obada's case - supermarket recognition.
Obada and his fellow International Player Pathway products are often quizzed on whether they wished they had been introduced to football as early as children as in the States; the answer is yes, always, unequivocally, yes.
The Washington Commanders defensive end returned home this offseason to be greeted by further strides towards that reality, Obada spending the week witnessing aspiring Efe Obadas attending NFL Academy trials and competing at the Flag Football National Championship at Loughborough University.
A croaky voice from coaching and interacting was the outcome, and a telling sign as to his investment in bridging the gap.
"I'm excited, it wasn't around, having this exposure at this age to a game that's changed my life, just envisioning the opportunities it can have for these kids, to streamline them from going from here to the NFL, it's exciting to watch," Obada told Sky Sports.
- From Loughborough to the NFL for Odeleye: 'I had to turn my phone to Do Not Disturb!'
- Analysis: The NFL unicorn whose exotic best is yet to come
"What's really exciting about coming home now is the NFL is becoming part of British culture, and it's so exciting to see. This wasn't real, this wasn't a thing.
"Now we're in Loughborough, the Academy is going to be here, the IPP programme, the London games, Flag Football, and I'm being recognised.
"I got recognised in Tesco, it blows my mind! He was like, 'I know you'. I asked if he was sure and he went, 'yeah you're Efe!'"
West London's Little Ealing Primary School ran out winners at Wednesday's 12-school tournament, overcoming Manchester's St Mary's Hall Stonyhurst 7-6 in overtime in the final to secure a once-in-a-lifetime spot in the NFL Flag Championship at the 2023 Pro Bowl in Las Vegas.
They represent one of 300 schools playing Flag Football across the country, with the non-contact version of the game aggressively pursuing inclusion at the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
Might Obada be tempted by a potential shot at a gold medal? He admits he might be too big, though jokes he could be a quarterback.
"I do think it should be an Olympic sport, yes," says Obada, who hails flag football as a necessary 'stepping stone'.
"There were times in my early years when I wish I had that opportunity, because it was such a condensed growth I needed to make, I wish I went to college and was able to develop my style of play."
He puts emphasis on the 'options' it provides. Options he and others may not have had when he was the age of those competing at Loughborough.
Wilson: Flag football can spread the game
Super Bowl-winning quarterback Russell Wilson, who will lead the Denver Broncos out against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Wembley this coming season, was present on the day as an NFL Flag ambassador.
If thousands of fans queuing to meet him at Carnaby Street on Tuesday fell short of amplifying the NFL's popularity in the UK, the a day of flag football will have done the trick.
"It's been amazing seeing the growth of NFL flag, I went to China, I've been to Brazil, been to London a couple of times," he told Sky Sports.
"[It's great] just to be here, and watching all these amazing kids playing football and how much they've been loving this game.
"The amazing thing is when I was in Brazil I had these kids say to me, 'when we watch this game it's hard for us to play' and I said, 'what do you mean?' They said, 'well it's expensive, helmet, shoulder pads, all things like that'. And it hit me, flag football, globally, it will teach everybody.
"It's been cool to be able to create this opportunity for kids all over the world."
Bell: NFL popularity doesn't surprise me anymore
Few have been as closely associated to the NFL's ascent in the UK than Jason Bell, who cites former New York Giants team-mate Osi Umenyiora playing in the inaugural London game in 2007 as a reflection of the league's long-standing place on the British sporting landscape.
By now he is no longer surprised by the depth of knowledge.
"These kids they play the video games, they know about these complex plays and how things are happening," he told Sky Sports.
"I watch one team out there, they had all their plays on their wristband. I was like, 'I didn't have that in high school, I was out there winging it!'
"You see they understand the game because they play it, they watch it, they're engaged in it, so when they go out there they're just so familiar with what's happening.
"I tried to get a lot of them to laugh today but they were too serious about the game, so I was like, 'I'm going to back off, I get it!'"
"I think it has surprised me, I hadn't heard much about football in other countries. They're playing ball, they're out here competing, they have some talented players, they know players, they know dances, we're out there Griddying, they're playing the game so that's really good."
Vikings wide receiver KJ Osborn on Flag Football in the UK
Bell encouraged the eventual addition of Flag Football to the Olympics and believes it beckons as another significant bow to the league's international ventures.
"Anything you can adapt to easily that can become an Olympic sport, you need to be able to pick up a ball and go. That's what flag allows you to do, you just pick up a ball, have a field and you can go.
"I think now because of the way you can look online at the passing game and how that occurs and people can look at highlights anywhere in the world you can look at what players do and mimic that.
"I think that's what's going to help the growth of the game as far as flag is concerned and give us the opportunity to be in the Olympics.
"Now the NFL is going to have to keep pushing for it internationally with NFL Flag, but that is the key, that is the driver, even in youth sports."
'The next generation of fans and players'
New NFL UK General Manager Henry Hodgson, who has been based at the NFL's Los Angeles office for the last 12 years, has been an instrumental figure in driving the league's growth overseas.
He takes up his post in London with the game's presence in a place he admits he 'could have only dreamed of' at the very beginning.
"The flag event, this is the next generation of fans I think," Hodgson told Sky Sports. "You know how much kids playing the sport gets them into it so these guys have got a great opportunity first of all to represent the UK at the Pro Bowl whoever wins which is exciting.
"But even more than that they're going to be the next generation of fans and players.
"The Academy here yesterday was here for their trials as well, again another great programme that will help move the sport forward in the UK and Europe given there are players from all over Europe as well.
"Just seeing that pipeline of kids that can get to college, hopefully some of them make it to the NFL is very exciting.
"We could only dream of getting here, but I think there's a lot of growth to be had and we want to continue growing NFL fans around the UK and keep the momentum." | https://www.skysports.com/nfl/news/12118/12643166/efe-obada-says-nfl-has-become-part-of-british-culture-russell-wilson-amazed-by-international-growth | 2022-06-30T16:47:46Z | https://www.skysports.com/nfl/news/12118/12643166/efe-obada-says-nfl-has-become-part-of-british-culture-russell-wilson-amazed-by-international-growth | false | 1 |

Fishing industry seriously at risk from offshore developments, report warns
Fishermen are warning that offshore developments and the expansion of marine protected areas could shut down more than half of Scottish waters by 2050.
A major new report for the industry, published today (Thursday), highlights the impact of “spatial squeeze” – which it says could bring “severe harm” to coastal communities.
It puts forward three future scenarios to demonstrate the scale of displacement the fishing fleet may face in the coming years.
According to the worst case scenario 260,000km2 – 56 per cent of Scottish waters – will be out of bounds by mid-century.
This is based on the expansion of offshore renewables, mainly windfarms, and the designation of at least 10 per cent of Scotland’s seas as Highly Marine Protected Areas (HPMAs) where fishing will be banned,
Even if the worst-case assumptions are not realised 46 per cent of Scottish waters are likely to be lost by then, threatening the existence of fishing businesses.
Most of this area is expected to be lost by 2030 – and fishing is already excluded from around a third of Scottish waters.
The report, produced by consultants ABPmer for representatives including Shetland Fisherman’s Association (SFA), shows Scotland is set to lose far more of its waters to fishing when compared to the rest of the UK.
Scottish Fishermen’s Federation chief executive Elspeth Macdonald – of which the SFA is one of eight members – said of the report: “The outlook ahead is truly frightening.
“The report shows that expansion of both offshore renewable energy generation and marine conservation are being prioritised over fishing, despite fishing’s value in producing low carbon, healthy and sustainable food, contributing to our food security and supporting thousands of jobs in our coastal communities.
Despite its grim warnings the report also shows it is not too late for action to minimise the impact on fishing considerably, through much better planning and design and the implementation of mitigation measures. | https://www.shetlandtimes.co.uk/2022/06/30/fishing-industry-seriously-at-risk-from-offshore-developments-report-warns | 2022-06-30T16:53:05Z | https://www.shetlandtimes.co.uk/2022/06/30/fishing-industry-seriously-at-risk-from-offshore-developments-report-warns | true | 1 |
WASHINGTON (AP) — An overwhelming and growing majority of Americans say the U.S. is heading in the wrong direction, including nearly 8 in 10 Democrats, according to a new poll that finds deep pessimism about the economy plaguing President Joe Biden.
Eighty-five percent of U.S. adults say the country is on the wrong track, and 79% describe the economy as poor, according to a new survey from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. The findings suggest Biden faces fundamental challenges as he tries to motivate voters to cast ballots for Democrats in November’s midterm elections.
Inflation has consistently eclipsed the healthy 3.6% unemployment rate as a focal point for Americans, who are dealing with high gasoline and food prices. Even among Democrats, 67% call economic conditions poor.
“He’s doing the best he can — I can’t say he’s doing a good job,” said Chuck McClain, 74. “But his opposition is so bad. I just don’t feel the Democratic Congress is doing enough.”
The Las Vegas resident is a loyal Democrat who said he doesn’t miss an election, but he said the price of gas and groceries, Russia’s war in Ukraine and the country’s deep political divides have led more Americans to feel as though Washington is unresponsive to their needs.
“My wife and I are very frustrated with where the country is headed, and we don’t have a lot of hope for the political end of it to get any better,” he said.
The poll shows only 39% of Americans approve of Biden’s leadership overall, while 60% disapprove. His approval rating fell to its lowest point of his presidency last month and remains at that level. The Democratic president gets hit even harder on the economy, with 69% saying they disapprove of him on the issue. Among Democrats, 43% disapprove of Biden’s handling of the economy.
Just 14% say things are going in the right direction, down slightly from 21% in May and 29% in April. Through the first half of 2021, about half of Americans said the country was headed in the right direction, a number that has steadily eroded in the past year.
Dorothy Vaudo, 66, said she voted for Biden in 2020 but plans to switch allegiance this year.
“I’m a Democrat so I had to vote Democrat, but that’s going to change,” said the Martin County, North Carolina resident.
In recent weeks, Americans have endured even more bad economic news, with inflation continuing to rise, interest rates increasing dramatically and the S&P 500 entering a bear market as many serious economists predict a recession. Yet consumer spending has largely kept pace and hiring remains brisk in a sign that families and businesses have been able to withstand some of the economic pain.
In an interview this month with the AP, Biden traced the decline in his popularity to increases in gas prices that began a year ago. He said that prices shot up further with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February. But he rejected claims by Republican lawmakers and some major economists that his $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package from last year contributed to inflation, noting that price increases were a global phenomenon.
“We’re in a stronger position than any nation in the world to overcome this inflation,” Biden said. “If it’s my fault, why is it the case in every other major industrial country in the world that inflation is higher?”
Douglass Gavilan, a 26-year-old in Miami, is concerned about the “skyrocketing” prices and rent that he sees in his community. Shelter costs are roughly a third of the U.S. consumer price index, so the run-up in rents and home values has started to strain the budgets even of many people living where there are strong job opportunities.
“I don’t even know if I’m going to be able to live here in a few years,” Gavilan said. “I definitely don’t feel confident in the economy.”
Though he doesn’t identify with a political party, Gavilan voted for Biden in 2020. He doesn’t think Biden has proposed anything to make a meaningful difference in his life, but he does think the president’s in a tough spot.
“There’s very little he can do without everyone blaming him for everything,” Gavilan said.
The poll was conducted from Thursday to Monday, with many interviews conducted after the Supreme Court on Friday struck down Roe v. Wade and allowed states to ban abortion — a decision opposed by a majority of the American people in earlier polls, which could also have contributed to the continued slump in the national mood.
The national dissatisfaction is bipartisan, the poll shows. Ninety-two percent of Republicans and 78% of Democrats say the country is headed in the wrong direction. Since last month, the percentage of Democrats saying the country is headed in the wrong direction rose from 66%.
Biden’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic remains a relative bright spot, with 53% of Americans saying they approve of his handling of that issue. On the other hand, only 36% say they approve of Biden’s handling of gun policy; 62% disapprove.
But the economy is what weighs on many Americans as their top priority.
Curtis Musser, 57, a chemistry teacher from Clermont, Florida, said he expects a recession is coming, though he believes it will be mild.
Musser said many Americans simply feel as though they’re at the mercy of events beyond their control, whether that’s the pandemic, rate hikes by the Federal Reserve, war in Europe or political hostilities within the U.S.
“I feel as an individual somewhat helpless,” he said. “I don’t have control of the markets, and you can’t really guess what markets are going do because you don’t know what the Fed is going to do. You don’t know what Congress is going to do. You don’t know what Vladimir Putin is going to do.”
___
The poll of 1,053 adults was conducted June 23-27 using a sample drawn from NORC’s probability-based AmeriSpeak Panel, which is designed to be representative of the U.S. population. The margin of sampling error for all respondents is plus or minus 4 percentage points.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Most of the legislation passed earlier this year by the divided Virginia General Assembly and signed into law by Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin will take effect Friday.
That includes measures that lifted a sweeping ban on facial recognition technology, expanded hunting on public lands, and added a new criminal penalty for marijuana possession.
Here is a look those measures and other notable legislation:
NEW MARIJUANA PENALTY
Through the budget, lawmakers created a new criminal misdemeanor for possessing more than 4 ounces (113 grams) but not more than 1 pound (454 grams) of marijuana in public.
In 2021, the General Assembly — then fully controlled by Democrats — legalized adult possession of up to an ounce (28 grams) of marijuana and laid the groundwork for retail sales to begin in 2024. Possession of more than an ounce but less than a pound was previously punishable as a civil violation with a $25 fine.
This year's change drew an outcry from civil rights and marijuana justice advocacy groups, who opposed the creation of a new criminal penalty.
FACIAL RECOGNITION
Virginia policymakers opted to lift a ban enacted only a year ago on the use of facial recognition technology by most police agencies.
The new law allows police agencies to use the technology in certain circumstances, including to help identify an individual when they have reasonable suspicion that the person committed a crime. It can also be used to help identify crime victims or witnesses, sex trafficking victims and unidentified bodies in morgues.
The new legislation explicitly bars the use of facial recognition for surveillance or monitoring.
FOIA ROLLBACK
Lawmakers this year rolled back a recent reform intended to expand public access to certain law enforcement files in closed criminal investigations.
Under the new law, the disclosure of such records to the press and general public will no longer be mandatory under the state’s public records law. Instead, disclosure will again be up to the discretion of the law enforcement agency. The change, which supporters said would increase protections for crime victims and their families, drew opposition from some relatives of crime victims and attorneys who work on wrongful convictions.
PARENTAL SAY IN CLASSROOM MATERIALS
By January, local school boards will have to adopt policies for notifying parents about instructional material containing sexually explicit content.
That’s thanks to a GOP-sponsored law that picked up enough Democratic support in the state Senate to pass.
The law also requires that parents be allowed to review any instructional materials with explicit content and that students be given an alternative assignment if a parent so requests.
HUNTING ON SUNDAYS
A bill permitting hunting on public land on Sundays is set to take effect, as long as the hunting takes place more than 200 yards (180 meters) from a place of worship.
COCKTAILS TO GO
Lawmakers extended for two years the ability of certain businesses to sell mixed drinks for off-site consumption. Virginia's rules were relaxed at the start of the coronavirus pandemic in a move intended to offer struggling restaurants and bars a lifeline.
The ability to sell to-go cocktail sales had been set to expire July 1 and was extended through July 1, 2024.
This year's legislation also created a third-party delivery license that will be necessary to deliver alcoholic beverages purchased by consumers from retail licensees. The license was created to address safety issues including age verification, according to a news release from the state Alcoholic Beverage Control Authority.
CATALYTIC CONVERTERS
A new law toughens the penalty for stealing catalytic converters.
The emission control devices have become popular targets for thieves in the past two years as prices for the precious metals they contain have skyrocketed.
The legislation makes tampering with or stealing a catalytic converter a Class 6 felony, which is punishable by up to five years in prison. It was previously a misdemeanor. The legislation also requires people who sell catalytic converters to show identification, which the purchaser must record.
SEXUALLY EXPLICIT CONTENT
Another new law aims to crack down on unsolicited sexually explicit pictures and videos.
The measure makes any adult who knowingly transmits an “intimate image” electronically to another adult without their consent subject to financial damages. Under the bill, a court may also restrain the sender from sharing such pictures or video again. | https://www.thehour.com/news/article/Marijuana-facial-recognition-other-laws-take-17276652.php | 2022-06-30T16:55:50Z | https://www.thehour.com/news/article/Marijuana-facial-recognition-other-laws-take-17276652.php | false | 16 |

New York lawmakers to loosen gun-permit laws after Supreme Court ruling
By Jonathan Allen
NEW YORK, June 30 (Reuters) - New York lawmakers will meet in an emergency session on Thursday afternoon to loosen the state's gun-licensing laws to conform with a landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision that established a constitutional right for people to carry weapons in public for self-defense.
The state's Democratic leaders decried last week's Supreme Court decision in a case challenging New York's century-old gun license laws. The six justices in the court's conservative majority ruled it unconstitutional to require law-abiding people to provide "proper cause," or some kind of special need, for concealed-carry handgun licenses for self-defense.
New York Governor Kathy Hochul, a Democrat, said the state would obey the ruling but not without protest: she warned the court had "added fuel to the fire" of gun violence.
"They removed our limitations on who can carry concealed weapons in our state," she told reporters, describing the court's vision as allowing people to carry guns to crowded venues and bars. "Imagine someone's talking to your girlfriend. You're not real happy about it. And you have a gun and you have a temper and that's what happens."
She ordered the extraordinary session of the legislature in Albany, the state capital, to loosen the state's gun-license laws in keeping with the ruling while also codifying places where guns would be banned.
New York's efforts to thread the needle of keeping as many gun regulations as possible while obeying the Supreme Court will be closely watched, including by the National Rifle Association and other pro-gun groups. The court's ruling made it easier to challenge and overturn laws governing weapons.
'SENSITIVE PLACES'
In its ruling in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association (NYSRPA) v. Bruen, the Supreme Court said it would likely accept courthouses, schools and government buildings as "sensitive places," where the public can be barred from carrying weapons, but would frown on applying the label broadly. The ruling explicitly warned lawmakers they could not do anything that would effectively make the entire island of Manhattan a sensitive place.
Hochul said she expected New York's list also to include clinics and hospitals, day-care centers, parks, zoos, playgrounds and public transit. The NYSRPA has said it would file a legal challenge to a guns ban on New York City's huge subway system, which currently allows concealed-carry permit holders to bring their guns.
Private businesses will be presumed to be gun-free places unless owners post a sign out front saying: "Concealed-carry weapons welcome here," Hochul said.
The Supreme Court also said gun regimes in California, New Jersey, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Maryland and Washington D.C. that are similar to New York's are also unconstitutional.
The revised laws must more closely resemble the gun laws of the 43 states identified by the court where officials have less discretion to deny people gun licenses, although the court ruled that people with certain kinds of criminal history or mental illness could still be denied the right to carry weapons.
Hochul has said there will be expanded firing-range training requirements before New Yorkers can qualify for a gun permit, and that the state will revive an old law requiring background checks for purchasing certain kinds of ammunition.
But any gun regulation challenged in federal court must pass a new test defined by the Supreme Court last week, which makes a weapons regulation constitutional only if it is similar to limits on arms found in American history, particularly the 18th century, when the Constitution's Second Amendment was ratified.
New York's current gun license rules were codified in 1913.

Leaders must deliver 'strong' ocean treaties: Greenpeace
Issued on: Modified:
Lisbon (AFP) – Governments must adopt strong, enforceable treaties to protect oceans affected by global warming, overfishing and rampant pollution, Greenpeace activists said while staging a protest Thursday at the UN Ocean Conference in Lisbon.
"Our leaders are failing to deliver on their promise to protect the oceans," said Laura Meller, lead for the environmental group's protect the oceans campaign.
"We need a strong global ocean treaty that really changes how we look at the ocean and puts protection over profit," she said on the margins of the five-day meeting, which ends Friday.
Draft treaties slated for completion this year must "create a network of ocean sanctuaries that allows marine life to heal".
The Lisbon conference -- attended by government officials, experts and advocates from 140 countries -- is not a negotiating forum.
But it will help set the oceans agenda at two critical summits later this year -- the COP27 UN climate talks in November, hosted by Egypt, followed by the long-delayed COP15 UN biodiversity negotiations, recently moved from China to Canada.
At the heart of the COP15 draft treaty is a provision to designate 30 percent of Earth's land area and oceans as protected zones by 2030.
Currently, under eight percent of oceans have protected status.
The United States, European Union nations, Mexico, Canada, Japan and India are among 100 nations to have endorsed the so-called 30-by-30 target. China, Russia, Indonesia and Brazil have yet to do so.
In August, nations will also try to finalise a separate treaty -- decades in the making -- governing the exploitation of marine life in the high seas beyond areas of national jurisdiction known as "exclusive economic zones".
Greenpeace activists sought to mount a banner showing a dead shark with the inscription "Killed by Political Action" at the conference site, but were stopped and escorted off the premises.

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — Charging documents for the Baltimore man accused of dragging a police officer for several blocks after fleeing from a traffic stop are shedding new light on the sequence of events that led up to the incident.
Joseph Black, 36, was behind the wheel of a Mercedes sedan that was pulled over for a traffic infraction Tuesday evening in the 5100 block of Park Heights Avenue, according to the court documents obtained Thursday by WJZ.

It was then, the records allege, that Black shifted the car into drive and drove away with Ramberg hanging onto the driver’s door. He clung to the sedan for two blocks before it veered into another lane and sideswiped a parked car, knocking him off.
The driver then allegedly fled, leaving the injured sergeant lying in the street.
Ramberg was rushed to University of Maryland R. Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center, where he underwent emergency surgery to treat injuries including several broken bones. His condition was upgraded Wednesday from critical to fair.
Black, who had handed over his driver’s license to the officers during Tuesday night’s traffic stop, was arrested Wednesday after he allegedly barricaded himself inside of a home in the 1600 block of Druid Hill Avenue, authorities said.
Black, described by police as a repeat violent offender, is charged with attempted first-degree murder, first- and second-degree assault, and reckless endangerment, court records show. He’s being held without bail while awaiting trial.
The 36-year-old has been arrested at least 19 times before, Police Commissioner Michael Harrison said Wednesday. His prior arrests included violent crimes, such as attempted murder and assault weapons charges.
“When we talk about repeat violent offenders, this is what we are referring to,” Harrison said of Black.
Mayor Brandon Scott described Black as “an individual who had no business being out, who should still be behind bars.”

Attorney Bradley MacFee, who represented Black in the 2019 case, said his client described the incident as self-defense. “There were people who were threatening him and he just reacted to that,” MacFee said.
Black faced up to 15 years in prison for charges related to the October 2019 case but spent less than two years behind bars.
“He had spent about 19 months detained,” MacFee said. “You would never see a deal like this.”
MacFee said the deal was a result of a backlog of cases caused by the pandemic and a lack of prosecutors at the Baltimore City State’s Attorney’s Office.
“There really aren’t all that many prosecutors left, certainly not in the numbers that are required to be able to accurately and adequately work up these cases and take them to trial,” MacFee said.
State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby stands by the plea deals.
“Mister Black was defending himself from being shot,” said Mosby, whose office offered Black plea deals in two separate cases.
The second case, Mosby said, was because they didn’t have enough witnesses.

The European Court of Human Rights has said that a complaint against 33 countries filed by six young Portuguese climate activists will be examined by the tribunal’s top panel of judges, a move reflecting the case’s legal significance.
The activists, three of whom are minors, turned to the court almost two years ago in an effort to hold European governments accountable for their allegedly inadequate efforts to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
The countries named in the complaint include the 27 member nations of the European Union plus the UK, Switzerland, Norway, Russia, Turkey and Ukraine.
The Strasbourg-based court said the case, which had already received priority status, would be bumped up to the 17-member Grand Chamber.
The court noted that the panel examines cases that present “a serious question” affecting the interpretation of the European Convention of Human Rights, or additional protocols, or “where the resolution of a question before the Chamber might have a result inconsistent with a judgment previously delivered by the court”.
One of the plaintiffs, 17-year-old Sofia Oliveira, said the decision to have the case heard by the Grand Chamber was encouraging.
“Now we hope that these judges will hear our case as soon as possible and that they will make the European governments take the urgent measures necessary to protect us,” she said.
The activists are supported by the Global Legal Action Network, an international non-profit organisation that challenges human rights violations.
Its director, Gearoid O Cuinn, noted that of the 22 cases pending before the Grand Chamber, three are now related to climate change.
“The fact that the court has referred this case, along with two other climate cases, to the Grand Chamber is an extremely significant development which shows how serious a human rights issue it considers climate change to be,” Mr O Cuinn said.
“By the end of the year, I’m hopeful we will see all of Europe’s major emitters on trial for failing to act properly on the climate crisis in what will be a hearing of unprecedented scale and consequence.”

The Nerf Gjallarhorn from Destiny is finally going up for pre-order, and you'll be able to secure one next week - but, as is only right for a weapon that was famously hard to get hold of in-game, the replica isn't exactly straightforward.
According to the official Bungie store (opens in new tab), you can secure your version of the Nerf Gjallarhorn from July 7… but there's a catch. Namely, "early access will be granted to players who acquire the Gjallarhorn rocket launcher in the Destiny 2: Bungie 30th Anniversary Pack before July 7, 2022". You'll then have a window to pre-order the blaster between July 7 and July 21 for $185.
Fortunately, this doesn't mean you can't get the Nerf Gjallarhorn if you aren't able to track one down in-game. Bungie notes that it will then "be made available to everyone after the Early Access Window, subject to availability". After that, this massive toy rocket launcher will join the rest of the best Nerf guns at some point later in 2022 or 2023 (a precise release date hasn't been announced yet).
No matter when it lands, this is massive enough to cause a stir; at over four feet long it dwarfs other Nerf rocket launchers like the Fortnite RL (which you can pick up with a 44% discount for $29.97 at Amazon (opens in new tab)). In fact, the closest blaster in terms of size might be the 1.27-meter Mandalorian rifle, the Nerf Star Wars Amban Phase-Pulse Blaster - which is now 25% less at Amazon (opens in new tab), by the way.
Basically, the Nerf Gjallarhorn is one of the biggest gifts for gamers you can get. Sure, it's not as massive as the 'real' version because that would be too unwieldy in real life, but it's also a lot more ornate than many of the other video game-inspired blasters (like Fortnite Nerf guns) thanks to intricate filigree all the way across the casing. And although it won't fire a hail of rockets like its video game counterpart, it does shoot three larger Nerf Mega darts at the same time to simulate that.
You can find out more about the blaster on Bungie's blog (opens in new tab) where the team goes into more detail about how the project came to life. As for other Nerf LMTD toys, check out this Nerf Aliens M41-A Pulse Blaster due to launch October 2022.

THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — Dutch police on Wednesday released without charge two Belgians who were arrested a day earlier on suspicion of involvement in a daring smash and grab jewelry heist at a prestigious art fair.
Police in the southern Limburg province tweeted that the Belgians, aged 22 and 26, were detained shortly after the armed robbery at the TEFAF fair in Maastricht because their behavior “was suspicious enough at that moment” to merit it.
Investigations have now cleared both men of involvement, police said. No other arrests have been made in the hunt for the culprits.
Video of Tuesday’s robbery posted on social media showed one man dressed in slacks, sneakers, a jacket and cap pounding at something out of picture with a sledgehammer as an alarm rang. Three other men, also neatly dressed, stood guard around him. At least two appeared to be brandishing guns.
All four ran off together as people stood and gazed after them. Photos from the scene that also were posted on social media showed holes smashed in glass display cabinets at the TEFAF art fair. Nobody was injured and the show, which was evacuated after the robbery, reopened later in the day.
Police said the robbers had made off with jewelry, but have not elaborated on what they stole or the value of their haul. | https://www.wlns.com/entertainment-news/dutch-police-release-2-belgians-held-after-jewelry-heist/ | 2022-06-30T17:02:19Z | https://www.wlns.com/entertainment-news/dutch-police-release-2-belgians-held-after-jewelry-heist/ | true | 32 |

Shopify (NYSE:SHOP) shareholders found out the hard way this week that stock splits aren't much more than financial gimmicks. After several large cap tech companies successfully split shares in the last year, the e-commerce platform executed a large share split and the stock has continued on to recent lows. My investment thesis is more Neutral on Shopify until the retail shakeout ends, but the stock valuation is definitely more appealing here with the stock down over 80% from the highs.
Just about anyone with basic investment knowledge knows a stock split provides no economic benefit to shareholders. A stock split can cause further momentum higher in a bullish trending stock just as a reverse split can create more downside from a bearish trending stock. Either way, an investor still has the same ownership position in the company as before the stock split just more shares in this case.
Shopify completed a 10-for-1 split on June 29. During the COVID e-commerce surge, the stock traded to a high of $1,763 where a split was probably warranted to make trading by retail investors and options more accessible. The stock though has collapsed prior to the split and now the company finds shares trading down at $31 and possibly heading into the $20s.
Considering stock price levels are considered a matter of strength, Shopify trading back down into the $20s doesn't throw off the best vibes. If the stock was to head much lower, Shopify might regret such a large split that once appeared logical when a 10-for-1 split would've left the stock still trading above $100.
The e-commerce infrastructure platform providing retailers with the solutions to operate online still expects to report strong growth in the years ahead. The retail sector is struggling right now evidenced by the weak numbers from Bed, Bath and Beyond (BBBY), yet the market is extrapolating these results far into the future. A lot the current weakness is due to COVID pull forward making the comps difficult despite retailers still reporting solid numbers compared to 2019.
Shopify saw explosive growth during 2020 and early 2021 as retailers flocked to the platform looking for any solution to conduct sales online. With the company providing an alternative to selling goods on Amazon (AMZN), Shopify was in hot demand. The company saw the growth rate peak at 110% in Q1'21 making the recently reported quarterly results impressive to generate additional 22% sales growth on top of those growth rates. Shopify only reported Q1'19 revenues of $320 million and hit $1.2 billion in Q1'22 for 275% growth over the period.
As the company discussed with investors, GMV growth was supercharged over the COVID shutdown period. Shopify reporting any growth in 2022 is actually very impressive.
The market doesn't really care due to either investors losing interest when growth stories struggle or algos running wild with decelerating growth. Either way, the stock now trades at the lowest trailing P/S ratio since Shopify went public at 8.7x sales. The stock valuation got carried away at the peak along with most tech stocks.
The stock trades at ~5x 2023 sales targets of $7.7 billion. With a cash balance of $7.25 billion with net cash of ~$6.34 billion, Shopify has an impressive balance sheet to fund future growth initiatives.
The Deliverr deal will require Shopify spend $1.7 billion in cash to pay for the deal to acquire the fulfillment technology provider. Prior to the Deliverr deal, the Shopify enterprise value is only 4x sales estimates providing one of the better prices to own the stock since going public while the prospects for growth remain strong. A lot of the analyst estimates have the company returning to 30% growth rates once the normalization period ends in 2023.
Shopify was profitable in Q1'22, though the company is scraping the bottom of profitability during the current period. The e-commerce platform has continued to invest in building out the platform despite the reduced growth rates. Regardless, Shopify has the cash balance and income to survive and thrive the current downturn in the retail sector.
The key investor takeaway is that the stock split gimmick definitely didn't work for Shopify. The stock had no momentum heading into the split and the lack of economic value for shareholders just provided more shares to sell. As the stock bottoms out over the next quarter, investors should look into acquiring shares of the e-commerce platform leader at a far more reasonable valuation now.

British musician Example has spoken about his heartache following his wife Erin McNaught's previous miscarriage. The 40-year-old is now a dad-of-two – but still feels the impact it had on him becoming a father.
Example, whose real name is Elliot John Gleave, opened up on Steven Bartlett's Diary of a CEO podcast about feeling "awful" and "helpless" after his wife lost the baby. He said in society people don't ask dads how they are after experiencing a miscarriage.
The rapper said that the couple had told people early-on in the pregnancy that they were expecting and after having a successful baby the first time, didn't expect this to happen. He said it was a few weeks after telling people when Erin they lost the baby.

He said how after, as a dad, you do everything you can to support the mother going through the miscarriage, but it not often people asks how the dads are feeling. When he spoke out about how he felt, he received messages from other dads calling him "amazing" for talking about the tough subject.
Steven, who grew up in Plymouth, asked: "One of the things that I read about was you tragically had a miscarriage with your second?” Example replied: "Yeah, the second one. I think we got so excited, and the first one seemed to go so well.
"Everything from when she found out she was pregnant to giving birth that you're not meant to tell people that early on. But when she found out she was pregnant, with the second one that we lost.
"It had only been five weeks, and really you are meant to wait quite a bit longer and have your first scan and so on. We went out and told everyone and then she lost it a few weeks later just before the safe date. So that was pretty tough."
He explained when he made an appearance of ITV's Lorraine show to talk about a single and a tour, he then was "blindsided" before he went live as producers asked him upon finding out about the miscarriage and asked if he wanted to make the whole interview about the loss of his second baby.
"I was like 'for what reason?' and they were just like because we've never had a guy come on here and talk about it before. It's definitely not like a celebrity and I was like 'ok cool'. So the whole interview became about that and it was actually quite positive because I got so many messages from guys afterwards just going 'that's amazing you went on and spoke about that'."
The rapper continued: "Because guys are just like a woman's just lost a baby, guys just have to get on with it and deal with it by themselves. Just do everything they can to support the mother.
"You're like oh my god. This is actually something that was living inside of her that has now died and I've just got to be there for her and I'm just going to have to suck it up and get on with it.
"People don't really ask the dad how you’re feeling, It’s not really in our society. It's not normal. Everyone just goes 'oh my god, how is she'."
When Steven asked him how he was feeling at the time, Example replied that he felt "helpless" and that it was "awful" experiencing his partner losing their baby. He also praised his and Erin's dads for being great and checking up on him by asking how he felt.
"Especially when you have a baby and then you're just like how beautiful that whole experience was and you’re like oh I could have had another one and then you start thinking is this going to happen to the next one- tough."
One person commented on The Diary of a CEO's preview video and said: "It is so refreshing to hear a man speaking about this topic! Miscarriage affects so many people. Sending love to his family."

Azerbaijan has very big opportunities to increase energy supply to Europe, ex-President of Georgia Giorgi Margvelashvili told Trend.
"Azerbaijan is Georgia’s main energy partner. There is a huge potential to increase the supply of energy to the European market. However, the cooperation of the countries of the Caspian Sea, the Black Sea and Northern Mediterranean regions is necessary for the realization of this goal," Margvelashvili said.
According to Margvelashvili, he believes that supplies to Europe can be balanced through the Trans-Adriatic Pipeline (TAP).
He noted that the partners from the east coast of the Caspian Sea region are now ready to join the partnership that Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Türkiye have already created.
Margvelashvili added that the project of restoration of the Great Silk Road, initiated by the leaders Heydar Aliyev, Eduard Shevardnadze, and Suleyman Demirel, also plays an exclusive role in cooperation between Azerbaijan and Georgia.
"This project has become a condition for the South Caucasus. This is a partnership that not only brings stability to the region but also opens up new opportunities for our countries," he said. | http://www.today.az/news/politics/222395.html | 2022-06-30T17:18:40Z | http://www.today.az/news/politics/222395.html | false | 2 |

The firm to double down on its core strategy with Fund IV while launching its first opportunity fund
SALT LAKE CITY and SAN FRANCISCO, June 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Peterson Ventures, a pre-Series A venture firm that invests across SaaS and digital commerce announced today that it has raised over $140M in new capital for its Fund IV and Opportunity Fund I. Like its prior core funds, Peterson Ventures' Fund IV will invest up to ~$2.5M into Seed and Pre-seed stage startups. The Opportunity Fund I will enable the firm to invest follow-on checks at the growth stage in breakout portfolio companies from its core funds. With the launch of these two new funds, Peterson Ventures now has over $550M in assets under management.
Peterson Ventures was founded in 2012 and is the ten-year-old venture arm of the Peterson Partners platform, an independent investment management firm with over $1.8B assets under management, originally founded by Joel Peterson. Ben Capell, Managing Director at Peterson Ventures, joined the firm 12 years ago and helped to launch the firm's venture investing activities, and was joined by fellow partner, Ilana Stern, 3 years ago. Peterson Ventures has invested in six unicorns and had 2 IPO's in the last ten years, including Allbirds, Ethos, and Lucid Software.
"Being able to partner and collaborate with so many founders in the way that we do has been hugely satisfying," said Ben Capell, Managing Director at Peterson Ventures "We've invested in nearly 100 founders so far and we look forward to growing not only our portfolio but our team as well. I love the work we do and am honored to keep it going with the support of some amazing Limited Partners."
Peterson Ventures' investments are sourced from a three-pronged approach: 1) the firm's strong roots in the Utah tech hub, a state which saw $26B in transaction value generated in 2020; 2) access to the talent and entrepreneurial ecosystem at Stanford's GSB MBA program, where the firm's partners have a deep network from decades of teaching and investing in students as well as alumni; and 3) an elite network of founder alumni referring companies to Peterson Ventures. This combination affords Peterson Ventures early access to key deals.
"Being part of the Peterson Ventures team has been incredibly fulfilling," said Ilana Stern, General Partner at Peterson Ventures. "I love working one-on-one with our founders to leverage my operating experience as a former founder and CEO. I have been in their shoes and know how important and impactful it can be to have investors with you every step of the way, especially through the uncertainty of finding product-market fit and early scaling."
With nearly 100 investments, Peterson Ventures looks at SaaS and Digital Commerce startups with a specific lens. With SaaS, the firm pursues a vertical strategy, with investments across healthcare, future of work and e-commerce enablement. With digital commerce investments, the firm looks for entrepreneurs who are disrupting distribution, bypassing the middleman to get more direct access to customers and to provide higher quality products at better value to the end consumer. Its DTC investments focus on historically low NPS industries and experiences spanning e-commerce, healthcare, fintech, and consumer-enabled marketplaces.
"We love Peterson Ventures. They were the cornerstone investor in our first financing when we graduated from Stanford GSB with a vision and a powerpoint deck," said Peter Colis, Co-founder and CEO of Ethos Life. "It was harder to raise our pre-Seed than any subsequent round, and we are so grateful they took a bet on us day one and have been in our corner ever since. Ben and the Peterson Ventures team are best in class at the earliest stages."
The Peterson Ventures team is growing and Taylor Jones, a former Peterson Ventures portfolio founder, joined as Principal in August 2021. Prior to joining Peterson Ventures, Taylor was the co-founder and COO at Blue Matador, a cloud infrastructure monitoring startup, and previously worked in go-to-market and strategy roles at Google and American Express. Taylor holds an MBA from Harvard Business School and a B.S. from Brigham Young University. Along with Ilana, Taylor is now the second portfolio founder to join Peterson Ventures full-time. The firm plans to continue growing its team with hires in both its SLC and SF locations.

AUSTIN (KXAN) — Kaitlin Armstrong, the woman accused of killing cyclist Moriah Wilson, was captured at a Costa Rica hostel Wednesday, over a month after the murder.
U.S. Marshals worked with Homeland Security and authorities in Costa Rica to find her at the hostel on Santa Teresa Beach, which borders to Pacific Ocean, the U.S. Marshals Service announced Thursday. She will be deported and returned to the U.S.
Investigators found Armstrong, 34, had used a phony passport on May 18 to board a United Airlines flight from Newark, New Jersey, to San Jose, Costa Rica, according to U.S. Marshals.
U.S. Marshals had already known she was given transportation to the airport in Newark, but no flight reservations were found in her name.
Prior to the May 18 flight, Armstrong was seen on surveillance video at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport on May 14, where she boarded a plane to Houston before catching a connecting flight to New York.
The murder took place May 11, according to past reports from Austin Police. Wilson was shot and killed at a home off Maple Avenue in east Austin. Wilson, a world-class cyclist, was in Texas preparing to compete in a race. She is originally from Vermont.
An anonymous tipster told police that Armstrong believed her boyfriend was romantically involved with Wilson, leading her to become “furious,” “shaking with anger” and wanting to “kill” Wilson.
Both Wilson’s family and Armstrong’s boyfriend, however, have since denied reports that the two were romantically involved at the time of Wilson’s death.
Austin Police questioned Armstrong after the murder but did not arrest her at the time, U.S. Marshals said.
The department also issued a warrant for Armstrong’s arrest on May 17, days after she had already fled the state. Armstrong had also sold her black Jeep to a CarMax dealership in south Austin on May 13 prior to leaving Texas, U.S. Marshals said.
A federal arrest warrant for Armstrong was obtained on May 25 for unlawful flight to avoid prosecution. | https://www.myhighplains.com/news/national/kaitlin-armstrong-captured-in-costa-rica-officials-say-she-used-a-phony-passport-2/ | 2022-06-30T17:21:08Z | https://www.myhighplains.com/news/national/kaitlin-armstrong-captured-in-costa-rica-officials-say-she-used-a-phony-passport-2/ | false | 23 |
DENVER (AP) — The Denver Nuggets have agreed to a deal that would send guards Will Barton and Monte Morris to the Washington Wizards for Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Ish Smith, a person with knowledge of the negotiations said Wednesday.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal hasn’t been announced. It’s not likely to be finalized until the league’s offseason moratorium is lifted on July 6.
The trade becomes the latest move by Nuggets general manager Calvin Booth to reshape the lineup around two-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokic. Barton and Morris were both starters last season on a Nuggets team that was eliminated from the playoffs in the first round by eventual champion Golden State.
ESPN and The Athletic were the first to announce a deal was in the works.
Barton averaged 14.7 points and Morris 12.6 points on an injury-riddled Denver team that was missing point guard Jamal Murray (ACL recovery) for the entire year and Michael Porter Jr. (back) for most of it.
Both Barton and Morris have been key components, but the emergence of Bones Hyland gave the Nuggets the flexibility to orchestrate this type of trade.
Caldwell-Pope started 77 games for Washington, where he averaged 13.2 points and shot 39% from 3-point range. On top of that — and this should endear him to Denver coach Michael Malone — he’s a strong perimeter defender.
The 29-year-old Caldwell-Pope won an NBA title with LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers in 2020.
Smith is on the verge of joining his 13th NBA team. He started last season with Charlotte and was dealt to the Wizards in February. He played in 28 games for Washington.
The trade would be the second by Booth since gaining more front-office responsibility following Tim Connelly’s departure to Minnesota. Just before the draft, the Nuggets traded JaMychal Green and a 2027 protected first-round draft pick to Oklahoma City for Peyton Watson and two future second-round picks.
On draft night, Denver selected guard Christian Braun out of Kansas with the 21st pick. Braun helped the Jayhawks capture the NCAA national championship with a 12-point, 12-rebound performance in the title game.
Booth said at the draft the team has “work to do still this summer.”
“We’re trying to put together a team that’s going to maximize Joker’s peak years,” Booth added. “Right now, we have a lot of veterans and we have a good roster but probably have some more tweaking to do before we can say we’re done with the roster.”

Bigg Boss 7 fame Sofia Hayat was hospitalized in Spain owing to illness caused by fasting for 21 days as a part of spiritual practice
MUMBAI: Actress and former girlfriend of Indian cricketer Rohit Sharma, Sofia Hayat earlier informed her fans that she will be fasting for 21 days to explore her previous life and get connected to her soul. However, she is now hospitalized in Spain.
Sofia followed the ritual of fasting as a spiritual practice. However, the fasting process didn't suit her and she got hospitalised after her body salt lever dropped and she felt dizzy.
Sofia was quoted saying, “The salt levels went dangerously low. I asked the nurse to get me five packets of salt and that kind of saved me. So, this condition resulted in me being hospitalised, my heart felt funny and I was shivering."
Sofia said that speaking to a friend on the phone helped her feel better. She said that she listened to her body after hospitalisation and ate food and had water. She also said that she felt 'pretty okay' before this emergency landed her in the hospital suddenly. She said she had done this kind of fasting earlier as well and it 'went well'.
In June 2016, Sofia announced that she had embraced spirituality and become a nun. She adopted the name Gaia Sofia Mother.
Sofia has featured in 'Bigg Boss 7' and hosted 'Superdude'. Later, she appeared in 'Welcome - Baazi Mehmaan Nawazi Ki' and 'Comedy Nights Bachao'.

The NFL and Deshaun Watson’s legal team presented their arguments before a disciplinary officer for a second day Wednesday, with both sides holding firm as the hearing is scheduled to continue in Delaware on Thursday.
The league is insisting on an indefinite suspension and Watson’s side is arguing there’s no basis for a punishment that significant, two people in attendance told The Associated Press. Both people spoke on condition of anonymity because the hearing isn’t public.
Former U.S. District Judge Sue Robinson, who was jointly appointed by the league and the NFL Players’ Association, is tasked with determining whether Watson violated the NFL’s personal conduct policy and whether to impose discipline.
If either the union or league appeals Robinson’s decision, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell or his designee “will issue a written decision that will constitute full, final and complete disposition of the dispute,” per terms of Article 46 in the collective bargaining agreement.
Watson agreed to settle 20 of 24 civil lawsuits for sexual misconduct, but the league is seeking at least a one-year suspension, one of the people told The AP. Watson’s side expects a suspension but wants the three-time Pro Bowl quarterback to play for the Cleveland Browns at some point this season, another person told the AP.
Two separate Texas grand juries declined to indict Watson on criminal complaints stemming from the allegations.
Watson has denied any wrongdoing and vowed to clear his name.
This is the first hearing for Robinson, who was the first woman Chief Judge for the District of Delaware. Previously, Goodell had the authority to impose discipline for violations of the personal conduct policy.

Five takeaways from Biden’s trip to attend G-7, NATO meetings
President Biden on Thursday wrapped his fourth trip to Europe as president, capping a chaotic six days largely focused on further responding to Russia’s war in Ukraine and its ripple effects.
Biden participated in a Group of Seven (G-7) meeting in Germany and a NATO summit in Spain, where he and other world leaders rolled out new plans to punish Russia, support Ukraine and bolster defenses on NATO’s eastern flank.
But Biden’s turn on the world stage was complicated by domestic challenges. Biden departed for Europe a day after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, and the fight at home over abortion rights in many ways eclipsed the president’s overseas trip.
Here are five takeaways from Biden’s Europe visit.
Domestic issues overshadow foreign policy
Biden began his press conference on his last day in Europe by taking a victory lap touting his foreign policy agenda but quickly faced an array of questions on domestic issues and the many conflicts at home he will have to confront when he returns.
His call for a filibuster exemption to codify Roe v. Wade dominated headlines out of the news conference. He also pushed back on the notion that other world leaders think the U.S. is going in the wrong direction when it comes to abortion rights, gun violence and high inflation.
“They do not think that. You haven’t found one person, one world leader to say America is going backward. America is better positioned to lead the world than we ever have been. We have the strongest economy in the world, our inflation rates are lower than other nations in the world,” Biden told reporters in Madrid.
The president’s trip to Europe also came the same week the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol held a last-minute hearing with the most damaging testimony yet from Cassidy Hutchinson, a special assistant to former President Trump’s chief of staff Mark Meadows.
Biden will also return to Washington in the face of the Supreme Court’s final rulings of the term — including one in his favor.
The high court determined Thursday the Biden administration did not violate federal immigration law when it sought to rescind immigration policy that requires U.S. asylum-seekers to wait in Mexico while their applications are processed.
But on the same day, the justices also curbed the Environmental Protection Agency’s ability to regulate climate change, striking a blow to the White House.
Biden notches win with Sweden and Finland invited into alliance
The NATO summit yielded a significant, and surprising, breakthrough as Turkey relented in paving the way for Sweden and Finland to join NATO.
Biden was eager to play up the development on Thursday as he declared the alliance united and strengthened in the face of Russia’s war in Ukraine.
The U.S. president has been a proponent of NATO expansion and made a big show of supporting the bids by Finland and Sweden with a White House Rose Garden event last month.
“[Russian President Vladimir] Putin thought he could break the transatlantic alliance. He tried to weaken us. He expected our resolve to fracture. But he’s getting exactly what he did not want,” Biden said in opening remarks at his press conference.
The historic development involved a flurry of last-minute diplomacy, with Biden placing a call to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Tuesday on his way to the NATO summit. Sweden, Finland and Turkey all signed a memorandum addressing Turkey’s concerns about counterterrorism in which Ankara agreed to back their bids for membership.
Biden also on Thursday voiced support for the U.S. selling upgraded F-16 fighter jets to Turkey, though he insisted such a move was a concession that led to Ankara dropping its objections.
Russia dominates — but some focus on China
The dominant theme over the course of both the G-7 and NATO summits was Russia’s war in Ukraine — not the challenges posed by China’s aggression and growing influence.
At the G-7 meeting, countries agreed to pursue an effort to impose a global price cap on Russian oil and commit billions of dollars to food security to counter disruptions caused by the war. They also pledged to support Ukraine for the long haul, seeking to quash questions about their commitments as the war shows no signs of abating.
There was still some focus on China. Biden rebooted his global infrastructure plan along with G-7 leaders that is widely seen as a counter to China’s Belt and Road Initiative.
And at the NATO summit, countries approved a new strategic concept that for the first time explicitly mentions China and its threats to international order.
Biden on Thursday argued that the alliance was positioning itself to take on both the immediate threat from Russia’s attack on Ukraine and longer-term challenges from China.
“This summit was about strengthening our alliance, meeting the challenges of our world as it is today and the threats we’re going to face in the future,” Biden said.
Still, the Russia-Ukraine war has forced the administration to split its attention between Moscow and Beijing, despite Biden entering office with the intention to focus on countering China’s influence and threats on the economic and military realms.
Inflation concerns cut across borders
Global inflation was a point of concern for each of the world leaders gathered at the G-7 summit in Germany, as the ripple effects of the war in Ukraine have led to higher gas prices and higher food prices.
The issue of inflation is particularly pointed for Biden, as it has been a leading contributor to his sinking approval ratings. But he argued on Thursday in Spain that the U.S. was better positioned to deal with the challenges of rising costs than other nations.
“I can understand why the American people are frustrated because of inflation, but inflation is higher in almost every other country, prices at the pump are higher in almost every other country,” Biden said at his press conference before heading back to Washington. “We’re better positioned to deal with this than anyone.”
In a bid to both limit Moscow’s profits and potentially lower prices domestically, G-7 leaders endorsed moving forward with a price cap on Russian oil, though some of the details around the plan remain unclear.
Biden argued the price cap, if paired with his push for a gas tax holiday in the U.S., could help lower prices of gasoline in the U.S.
Ultimately, though, Biden and other world leaders have been consistent that Russia’s actions are responsible for a number of challenges facing the global economy.
“The reason why gas prices are up is because of Russia. Russia, Russia, Russia,” Biden said Thursday. “The reason why the food crisis exists is because of Russia, Russia not allowing grain to get out of Ukraine.”
NATO projects unity
One of Biden’s goals over the last six months has been to maintain a united front among NATO allies in the face of Russian aggression, a message the president and other members underscored during this week’s summit.
NATO members updated the alliance’s ambitions with a new strategic concept that names Russia and China as threats to global stability and highlights the growing risk of cyberattacks and climate change.
Biden announced separately plans to bolster the U.S. troop presence in Europe to guard against Russian aggression. The U.S. plans to permanently headquarter U.S. Army V Corps in Poland, add a rotational brigade in Europe stationed in Romania and increase rotational deployments to the Baltic states.
And NATO allies pledged additional support for Ukraine in its fight against Russia amid reports Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told G-7 leaders he hoped to see the war end by winter.
“We are going to stick with Ukraine, and all of the alliance is going to stick with Ukraine as long as it takes to in fact make sure that they are not defeated … in Ukraine by Russia,” Biden said.

Well, here we go, folks. The NBA offseason is here. It’s time for everybody to make their moves to field the best (or worst?) team they possibly can to win a title or, you know, draft this guy. The Spurs are well on their way.
But everybody has a huge parameter in which they can do that within — and that’s the NBA’s salary cap.
Teams are only allowed to spend up to a certain amount on salaries for their roster before they get into the luxury tax. And once they’re in that tax, there’s a certain threshold that, once they cross it, they’re charged a penalty for every dollar they spend on their roster. Those numbers shift every single year.
Luckily for us, we’ve got some reported numbers out there already so we know what teams are working with.
The NBA has reportedly told its teams the projected salary cap will be at $123.6 million, ESPN’s Tim Bontemps. The luxury tax line will be set at $150.6 million with a hard cap number of $156 million.
This is what teams have to work with this season. Best of luck to your squad.

Google today announced a preview of Advanced API Security, a new product headed to Google Cloud that’s designed to detect security threats as they relate to APIs. Built on Apigee, Google’s platform for API management, the company says that customers can request access starting today.
Short for “application programming interface,” APIs are documented connections between computers or between computer programs. API usage is on the rise, with one survey finding that more than 61.6% of developers relied on APIs more in 2021 than in 2020. But they’re also increasingly becoming the target of attacks. According to a 2018 report commissioned by cybersecurity vendor Imperva, two-thirds of organizations are exposing unsecured APIs to the public and partners.
Advanced API Security specializes in two tasks: identifying API misconfigurations and detecting bots. The service regularly assesses managed APIs and provides recommended actions when it detects configuration issues, and it uses preconfigured rules to provide a way to identify malicious bots within API traffic. Each rule represents a different type of unusual traffic from a single IP address; if an API traffic pattern meets any of the rules, Advanced API Security reports it as a bot.
“Misconfigured APIs are one of the leading reasons for API security incidents. While identifying and resolving API misconfigurations is a top priority for many organizations, the configuration management process is time consuming and requires considerable resources,” Vikas Ananda, head of product at Google Cloud, said in a blog post shared with TechCrunch ahead of the announcement. “Advanced API Security makes it easier for API teams to identify API proxies that do not conform to security standards. . . . Additionally, Advanced API Security speeds up the process of identifying data breaches by identifying bots that successfully resulted in the HTTP 200 OK success status response code.”
With the launch of Advanced API Security, Google is evidently seeking to bolster its security offerings under Apigee, which it acquired in 2016 for over half a billion dollars. But the company is also responding to increased competition in the API security segment. Startups delivering API-focused cybersecurity products include Salt Security, Noname Security and Neosec. Many established vendors have expanded their offerings in recent years, too, including Barracuda, Akamai, 42Crunch, Traceable, Ping Identity and Signal Sciences.
In March, Cloudflare launched a new gateway aimed at boosting API security. And in May, Imperva acquired API security company CloudVector.
While the jury’s out on just how well these products perform comparatively, the threat of API-borne attacks is very real. Companies like Peloton, Parler and even LinkedIn have fallen victim to API-driven attacks within the last few months. They’re not the only ones. According to a recent study by Cloudentity, 44% of companies have experienced “substantial” API authorization issues pertaining to privacy, data leakage and object property exposure with internal and external-facing APIs. | https://techcrunch.com/2022/06/30/google-launches-advanced-api-security-to-protect-apis-from-growing-threats/ | 2022-06-30T17:27:27Z | https://techcrunch.com/2022/06/30/google-launches-advanced-api-security-to-protect-apis-from-growing-threats/ | true | 3 |

Much time has passed since South Africa was hit by the Covid-19 pandemic on 20 March 2020. Since then, nearly four million South Africans have been diagnosed with the virus, of whom 101,717 died.
By this time, everyone knows that on 22 June 2022 the government lifted certain national Covid-19-related health regulations like the wearing of masks and the limits on the numbers of people at events. The impact of this on education is enormous. The announcement came just two days before the end of the second school term which has led to many queries from the public.
Parents should note that the announcement by the government is not absolute. School governing bodies still need to take a decision — which is binding on that specific school. A school could decide that learners must continue wearing face masks.
Gradually we will have to get accustomed to the fact that Covid-19, like flu and tuberculosis, should be treated as an epidemic instead of a pandemic. Both refer to the outbreak of a dreaded disease but where an epidemic is more concentrated in a specific region, a pandemic occurs worldwide. Other pandemics which have hit the world were the Spanish flu (1918-1920) which killed between 17 and 100 million people, and HIV/Aids, to which 36 million people have succumbed. Worldwide about 6.3 million people have already died of Covid-19.
A study at the University of the Western Cape has revealed that one out of every five South Africans above the age of 15 lives with more than one serious illness. That is why everyone should continue to apply suitable health and safety measures — against Covid, but also against flu and tuberculosis which claim many lives, especially in the Western Cape with its wet winters. Discussions with teachers have indicated that learners have had fewer colds and flu this year, probably due to the wearing of face masks.
The past six months have been a struggle to catch up on the academic backlogs. Schools which have not had access to online education were forced to rotate class attendance. This meant that learners, especially in the foundation phase, could not attend school regularly and effective learning of reading and writing could not take place.
Today we sit with learners in grades 3 and 4 who are illiterate. A language teacher mentioned that his grade 6 paper for the June examination was based on the grade 5 syllabus; this while he had to prepare the same learners for systemic tests.
Teachers have also pointed out the backlog in numeric comprehension. Owing to learners’ poor reading comprehension, they struggle with problem-solving, something which is also found at high school level and even at university.
Another concerning aspect is that learners’ handwriting has deteriorated or was never developed. Learners who missed most of their grade 3 in 2020, for example, never learned cursive writing, and will probably never learn it. Among learners who have managed it to an extent, some write the a and o so similarly that you cannot distinguish between them.
Routine and discipline
Many teachers indicate that learners’ discipline and routine have deteriorated. Routines such as remaining quiet while someone reads aloud, putting your hand up to ask a question, or requesting permission to leave the classroom, have been forgotten. In many schools, teachers have to teach these routines anew.
According to the Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky, tuition and education are a social interaction between child, teacher and co-learners. During times of isolation, the home does not provide this learning environment. On returning to school, it was striking how many learners’ social skills had deteriorated. They had lost the habit of interacting courteously and addressing the teacher with respect. Tempers flare which leads to fighting on the school grounds and even in the classroom. Absenteeism among learners is the highest ever. School principals remark that governing body meetings had tripled, mostly to deal with disciplinary cases.
In the Western Cape, an intensive programme is being rolled out to address the backlogs and challenges. However, it still depends on each school and principal to ensure that it takes place.
The abolition of the wearing of face masks will certainly have its advantages. In the foundation phase, it is important that the teacher’s mouth is visible when new sounds and their pronunciation are practiced. It is also important to be able to see the teacher’s facial expression when teaching learners concepts such as joy and fear. It promotes reading comprehension. That is why the wearing of masks (or not) should be applied with nuance in primary school.
New strategies which were acquired during the pandemic have moved South Africa to the 4th Industrial Revolution overnight. Schools will still have the advantage of online tuition available, which can be applied in tandem with class attendance, to address overcrowded classes.
Lost chances
It remains a concern that the national government has not made use of the opportunity to address inequality in education. Essential facilities — like running water — are still absent from many schools. Here is another valuable lesson: it is clear that the government will not be able to do everything for schools. The lack of funds remains problematic while the lack of political will can no longer be denied. It shifts the responsibility to school communities to take action themselves to create a learning environment that is conducive to learning.
Although it is heartening that we can return to some form of “normal” after more than two years, Covid is not over. We have recently heard that the number of infections in the United Kingdom is increasing again. That is why we dare not throw out the baby with the bathwater. I still believe that vaccination is our best defence against the virus and its mutations.
So don’t pack away the hand sanitiser and face mask just yet.

Ole Miss Rebels Recruiting Tracker: Rebel Legacy Metcalf has Rebels in Final Four
The preparation for the 2022 football season is under way in college football but the path towards building the future of the sport is never on hiatus.
It's true for Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss, fresh off of a top 25 recruiting class and its raid of the NCAA transfer portal of late. The program has gone through considerable transition, from coaching staff to roster, coming off of the first 10-win regular season in program history.
Can the success be sustained? Continued strength on the recruiting trail would have to continue to play a primary part if so in the competitive SEC West and well beyond.
Stick with The Grove Report as we track the top class of 2023 recruits considering Kiffin's program all in one spot, dissecting offers, visits, top groups, commitments, decommitments and everything else Rebel recruiting-related with the next senior class.
JUNE 30, 10:45 AM UPDATE
One of the top Ole Miss legacy recruits has a final four and the Rebels are still in the hunt.
T.J. Metcalf, the versatile defensive back from Pinson Valley (Ala.) High School who was born in Oxford, is down to the quartet of Ole Miss, Jackson State, Arkansas and Penn State. He made the announcement on social media.
Metcalf is of course very familiar with Oxford, having visited multiple times as a top recruiting target of the program as well.
"I have a great connection with Coach (Chris) Partridge, the defensive coordinator, and we really have just been clicking from day one," Metcalf said in the spring.
As a junior at Pinson Valley, Metcalf racked up 115 tackles, intercepted four passes and broke up eight more.
JUNE 28, 8:25 AM UPDATE
William Fowles has trimmed his list again and the Rebels have made the cut.
The Miami-area star wide receiver announced a final four of Ole Miss, Miami, Texas A&M and Georgia this week.
There is still no timetable for a decision for Fowles, though he has talked about an in-season official visit to Oxford before all is said and done in his recruitment.
Ole Miss has potential one wide receiver projection currently committed in Ahmad Brown.
JUNE 16, 1:25 PM UPDATE
One of the best quarterbacks in America isn't quite ready to decide.
Chatter around Jaden Rashada not following through with his June 18 commitment date has been prevalent since his comments at the OT7 event in Las Vegas last weekend and they have more merit now.
Multiple sources tell SI that Rashada will instead commit on June 26. It means he could theoretically take one more official visit before making the final call, if true, between Miami and Oregon.
Rashada, younger brother of junior college Ole Miss commitment Roman Rashada, has already visited, in order, Ole Miss, Texas A&M, LSU and Florida for officials. Cal makes the other program in his final list of top schools.
The trip to Oxford was Rashada's initial official visit.
"It was real good, that was my third time up there so I got to just chop it up with the coaching staff," he recently said. "It went pretty good, me and those coaches have talked a lot and you know coach Kiffin is an offensive mastermind.
"Who wouldn't want to play for them?"
JUNE 15, 5:00 PM UPDATE
A top offensive line target for Lane Kiffin's coaching staff is ready to come off the board.
Not only is Wilkin Formby announcing his commitment on June 20, but Ole Miss made the final four he announced via social media on Wednesday. Alabama, Tennessee and Oklahoma also made the cut for the Tuscaloosa (Ala.) Northridge offensive tackle.
Formby has long been a target for Jake Thornton on the offensive line, and Ole Miss has hosted him on campus several times. The most critical was an official visit over the weekend of the Grove Bowl in April. That was the weekend Kiffin brought the Rolls Royce out for key recruits.
"It was a fun experience to be with him riding around town in the Rolls Royce," Formby said after that weekend.
Formby would also officially visit Oklahoma (June 3) and Alabama (June 10) ahead of the decision.
JUNE 13, 9:20 AM UPDATE
One of Ole Miss' top targets pushed up his commitment date on Monday morning -- to Monday evening.
Brycen Sanders, the Chattanooga (Tenn.) Baylor School offensive line recruit who kicked off the final phase of his recruitment with an official visit to Ole Miss, will come off the board on Monday evening.
The class of 2023 star recruit announced the tweak in his decision plan via social media on Monday morning.
Sanders was originally planning on a pledge date of June 23 between Ole Miss, Tennessee, LSU and Oklahoma. Since, LSU had been eliminated from contention while official visits to UT and OU went through with strong consideration coming out of it.
The firs trip, however, was to Oxford in which the tackle talent admitted Lane Kiffin's program "rolled out the red carpet" for he and his family.
"I did feel special. I had an amazing time down there," Sanders said.
Ole Miss has three commitments in the class of 2023, with junior college defensive back Roman Rashada committing most recently.
JUNE 12, 2:00 PM UPDATE
One of the top prospects on the east coast has cut his list and still has Ole Miss in the running.
Dashawn Womack, the Baltimore (Md.) St. Frances Academy pass rusher with a national offer list, is down to Ole Miss, Georgia, LSU, Oregon and Maryland.
More than 30 programs offered the Baltimore native before the list cut. He took an official visit to Georgia in May and to semi-local Maryland in early June.
247Sports reports Womack will visit Ole Miss officially next, beginning June 17.
"I leave for Ole Miss on Thursday," Womack said. "I want to see more of how they are going to develop me and a better look at how he is going to do that."
JUNE 10, 12:30 PM UPDATE
One of the best in Mississippi has trimmed his list to three, with the Rebels checking in as the only in-state option remaining for John Slaughter.
The Southaven (Miss.) High School defensive back has been busy on the visit trail of late, of course with stops at Oxford included. He announced the finalists on Thursday evening with the Rebels, Tennessee and Florida State making the cut.
"They were able to show me even more about how I am a top target and safety for them," Slaughter said after a recent trip to Oxford. "I really like that it is close to home."
A verbal commitment decision could come before the 2022 season begins.
JUNE 6, 9:00 AM UPDATE
One of the newest Ole Miss football targets is ready to make a verbal commitment.
Caleb LaVellee, the Georgia linebacker prospect who picked up a Rebel offer during the last week of May, appears ready to end the process.
Programs like Florida, Pitt, North Carolina, Ole Miss and others are among those on the table with an offer of late.
LaVallee is an ascending prospect who had a monster junior season at Whitefield Academy, racking up 118 tackles, including 16 for loss and six sacks. He is listed at 6-foot-1, 215 pounds.
JUNE 3, 11:30 AM UPDATE
One of Ole Miss' top targets has cut his list and the Rebels have made the cut.
William Fowles, the Hialeah (Fla.) Dade Christian star wide receiver, announced his top six programs on Friday. In addition to the Rebels, Georgia, Texas A&M, Miami, Florida State and Maryland made the cut.
Fowles is planning an official visit to Oxford before a verbal commitment is to be made.
"Ole Miss is a good program, I like Lane Kiffin's offensive scheme. He likes to throw the ball deep all the time. It's a good scheme for me, it's a good fit for me. I think that would be a good fit for me."
MAY 31, 9:15 AM UPDATE
Jaden Rashada kicked off his official visit schedule with time at OIe Miss in April.
Since, he has seen Oregon, Florida and LSU, with plans to get to Texas A&M and others before his commitment is to come on June 18. On Tuesday morning, On3 reported he will make another stop at Ole Miss this week, checking out Oxford alongside his brother Roman Rashada as part of the junior college defensive back's official visit.
"Obviously coach (Lane) Kiffin is an offensive mastermind," Rashada said earlier in the year. "Who wouldn't want to play for him?"
The Grove Report has confirmed Roman's official visit to be in the middle of the week, as he is expected to arrive in Oxford over the next 24 hours. The elder Rashada is expected to soon make a decision between his final three programs Ole Miss, Miami and Virginia Tech.
The Rebels will be hosting several key visitors the first week of June, including Rashada, wide receiver Johntay Cook and others.
MAY 30, 5:00 PM UPDATE
One of Ole Miss' top recruiting targets cut his list from four to three, with the Rebels still in the mix.
Brycen Sanders, who was fresh off of a trip to in-state Tennessee over the weekend, confirmed to VR2 on SI that Ole Miss, UT and Oklahoma are his finalists ahead of a June 23 decision. LSU had been under consideration previously.
Ole Miss got the first official visit from the Tennessee offensive lineman, back during the Grove Bowl weekend, admitting the Rebels set the bar for programs to attempt to match.
"They rolled out the red carpet for me, trying to make me feel special and I did feel special.," he said last month. "I had an amazing time down there."
Oklahoma will get the final official visit for Sanders.
MAY 29, 10:15 AM UPDATE
Ole Miss is in the top top for one of the home state's top football prospects.
John Slaughter, the Southaven (Miss.) High School secondary star who has long been high on the program, told VR2 on SI that the Rebels and Tennessee are the top two programs in the mix for his services right now. Slaughter was on campus in Knoxville this weekend for his third impression of UT.
"Top two right now are Ole Miss and Tennessee," he said.
Slaughter has felt like a priority to Lane Kiffin's coaching staff, the first to offer him a scholarship, for some time. Of course Oxford is close to home, too.
The class of 2023 standout admits he could be closing in on a commitment, though he also says Florida State could be a program in line to hang around in the recruitment if he gets down to see Tallahassee before going public with his pick.
MAY 23, 8:00 AM UPDATE
One of Ole Miss' top secondary targets will make a weekend trip to Oxford for his official visit very soon.
St. Louis (Mo.) Cardinal Ritter defensive back Marvin Burks, Jr., who was initially targeted by Ole Miss in November, announced plans to kick off his official visit slate in Oxford for the weekend of June 3.
Burks has amassed more than 30 scholarship offers throughout his recruitment. The 6'2", 190-pound safety projection had not previously announced any official visit dates.
The Rebels are likely to kick off his visit slate, perhaps setting the bar with other top contenders ahead of a potential verbal commitment. Michigan, LSU, Missouri and others appear to be contenders for Burks early on.
MAY 18, 10:00 AM UPDATE
One of Ole Miss' top wide receiver targets is making moves in his recruitment.
William Fowles, the Hialeah (Fla.) Dade Christian standout, has long been high on the Rebels and he could soon make a debut visit to Oxford.
"It's an air-raid offense and I'm a wide receiver that likes to go deep," Fowles told Rivals. "My relationship with Lane Kiffin is cool. I'm looking forward to talking to him on my official visit."
Fowles went on to mention high standing with Florida State and Auburn, as well as a possibility to visit Alabama sometime soon. The trip to Ole Miss has yet to be locked in, but the trip is expected to be taken.
A decision for the breakout prospect, who also talked Ole Miss after dominating the Miami Under Amour camp, is not to be expected until late in the 2023 recruiting cycle.
MAY 15, 3:00 PM UPDATE
Ole Miss recently offered Roman Rashada, the brother of elite high school QB Jaden Rashada, and the Rebels made his list of top three schools this weekend.
Ole Miss joins Miami and Virginia Tech as the top schools vying for the JUCO DB's attention.
MAY 14, 7:30 PM UPDATE:
One of the best safety projection in Georgia has trimmed his list and Ole Miss is still in he hunt.
Milton (Ga.) High School star Robert Billings announced his top eight schools during the afternoon and the Rebels made the list along with Clemson, Florida State, Oregon, Michigan, Kentucky, North Carolina and Duke.
Billings, who last visited Oxford in April, originally picked up the Ole Miss offer back in September to kick off his recruitment. Clemson and Florida State have also hosted the Peach State prospect for a visit this spring. Listed at 6'2", 190 pounds, the rising-senior recruit trimmed the list from a total of at least a dozen total offers.
MAY 13, 3:00 PM UPDATE:
Ole Miss has offered JUCO defensive back Roman Rashada, brother of elite 2023 high school quarterback Jaden Rashada.
Although the Rebels already have a signal caller snagged for the 2023 season, offering the QB's brother could be viewed as a way of trying to lure another to campus as well. Kiffin also isn't shy about retweeting the quarterback, the most recent instance coming earlier this week.
As for Roman, he holds offers from notable schools such as BYU, Washington, Arkansas and Miami.
MAY 12, 10:00 AM UPDATE:
One of the hottest wide receiver recruits in America will soon see Ole Miss, and for an official visit.
Tyler Williams, the Lakeland (Fla.) High School star who recently narrowed his list to 10 schools, will take several official visits to take the next steps in his recruiting process. The Rebels will have another chance to impress him on September 3, a source near the Lakeland star confirmed to The Grove Report. On3 was first to report the visit, set to take place when the Rebels host Troy.
The other programs to make the top 10 for Williams included Georgia, Alabama, Notre Dame, Clemson, LSU, Florida, USC, Syracuse and South Florida.
He isn't expected to make a verbal commitment until much later in the year.
MAY 11, 4:15 PM UPDATE:
Details surrounding one of the most anticipated announcements in the state of Mississippi's 2023 class have emerged less than 48 hours away from Dante Dowdell's ceremony begins.
Long planned for Friday, May 13, the Picayune (Miss.) High School running back has been busy on the visit trail in narrowing the process from more than two dozen scholarship offers down to one.
The public will be presented with the pick ahead of Picayune's spring jamboree, also featuring Ocean Springs (Miss.) High School and Theodore (Ala.) High School from the late afternoon hours, through the evening.
Dowdell's pledge is to come before the proverbial 'kick,' currently tabbed for 4:30 pm CT. Expect the commitment just prior, perhaps closer to 4:00 pm.
Ahead of the pick, per a source close to the rising-senior recruit, the commitment is expected to come down to Ole Miss, Oregon, Tennessee, Arkansas and Florida State. Dowdell has frequented many of the aforementioned campuses, including Ole Miss just ahead of the 2022 Grove Bowl.
As a junior in 2021, Dowdell rushed for 2,555 yards and 28 touchdowns to lead a 14-1 state-championship-winning campaign for the Maroon Tide
MAY 9, 9:50 PM UPDATE:
Lane Kiffin and the Rebels appear to be determined to haul in top Sunshine State talent. Even in the class of 2024, the Rebels are making their presence felt.
The recruit in question is one of the fastest and most explosive players Florida has to offer. Izaiah Williams plays just north of Tampa at Wiregrass Ranch High School, and he also plays with Team Tampa 7v7. He's already racked up offers from Ole Miss, Penn State, Georgia, Michigan, Michigan State, Florida State, Pittsburgh, and Cincinnati among others.
His sub-11 second 100 meter speed, ability to stop on a dime and change direction, and overall athleticism are a big part of those offers. Those that have seen Williams also know that he's adept at catching the football in traffic. That's vital for a player that's at home in the slot like Williams; he's also a capable receiver on the exterior of he formation.
Just now becoming a national name, Williams is likely to truly blow up after his excellent seven-on-seven season. Ole Miss got itself in the running early. Now let's see if the Rebels can get this young man on campus before his junior season of high school football kicks off.
MAY 9, 9:00 AM UPDATE:
An Ole Miss legacy has trimmed his list and the Rebels made the cut.
Entering the weekend, Pinson Valley (Ala.) High School class of 2023 defensive back TJ Metcalf named top programs with Ole Miss of course included.
"Ole Miss has done a good job, so far, since offering TJ," Metcalf's father Tarrus recently told The Grove Report. "They have had an open line of communication with him and the rest of my family.
"How he’s being recruited is very important to our family."
Following the top 10 release, Metcalf participated at an FBU camp and walked away with defensive MVP honors. He is also running track at a high level and will compete in the Alabama state track meet soon.
MAY 4, 12:00 PM UPDATE:
As Ole Miss scours the country for top talent, one state is likely to be on the hit list for Rebels coaches no matter the year. That would be the state of Florida.
Ole Miss signed one player from Florida in the class of 2022 (Preston Cushman), and three in 2021 (Markevious Brown, Dink Jackson, and Bralon Brown). To help ensure that the pipeline to Florida continues, Ole Miss Head Coach Lane Kiffin and his coaching staff are not only recruiting seniors in the Sunshine State, but underclassmen as well.
Hylton "Drake" Stubbs is one of the more athletic and gifted underclassmen Florida has to offer. His long frame, at roughly 6'2" already, has intriguing possibilities in the defensive secondary.
As the SEC West continues to get more and more difficult, finding more long and lean defensive backs like Stubbs will be necessary for the Rebels.
APRIL 28, 2:15 PM UPDATE:
One of the best in Texas still has Ole Miss on his mind.
Braxton Myers, the Coppell (Texas) High School defensive back with more than 30 scholarship offers to his name, cut his list of favorites down to just seven. In addition to Ole Miss, Myers is still considering USC, Auburn, LSU, Arkansas, Clemson and Cal.
During Thursday's announcement of the top seven schools on social media, Myers also revealed a verbal commitment date of May 16.
The Texan, who has plans to leave the state for college, was initially targeted by Ole Miss last summer. He was last on campus two weekends ago for an unofficial visit to Oxford, when he spent time with Lane Kiffin and assistant coaches.
As a junior, Myers posted 11 pass breakups and three interceptions for Coppell.
APRIL 27, 2:30 PM UPDATE:
Ole Miss is still in the hunt for Robert Grigsby.
The Kennesaw (Ga.) North Cobb offensive line prospect, a rising-senior in the class of 2023, named a top six on Wednesday afternoon with North Carolina, NC State, Mississippi State, Vanderbilt and UCF among the top programs in addition to Ole Miss.
Grigsby was just offered by the Rebel football coaching staff on March 9 and has been busy on the visit trail since.
The two-way lineman, who checks in at 6'5", 275 pounds, told On3 Sports that he is expected to make a verbal commitment before the start of the Warriors' 2022 season.
APRIL 24, 8:30 PM UPDATE:
After spending more time in Oxford this weekend for the spring game, Marcel Reed is ready to make a decision.
The Nashville (Tenn.) Montgomery Bell Academy quarterback recruit, who has frequented Oxford and has long held an offer from Lane Kiffin and company, announced his plans to make a verbal commitment on Monday afternoon.
Reed was in Oxford in March and has also recently spent time at Arkansas and Vanderbilt.
APRIL 21, 1:30 PM UPDATE:
On Wednesday evening, Ole Miss made the cut for one of its top offensive line recruits.
Wilkin Formby, the Tuscaloosa (Ala.) Northridge star tackle talent, working with a list of more than 30 scholarship offers, trimmed the list of contenders to just five via social media.
In addition to Ole Miss, Alabama, Auburn, Tennessee and Oklahoma made the cut for the towering 6'7" prospect.
Formby was most recently in Oxford in late January and he's visited each program still in contention since. Ole Miss initially offered him in June 2021 after working out at a prospect camp. He was back in town in July, October and November, too.
APRIL 20, 2:55 PM UPDATE:
The Rebels are in play for top wide receiver recruit Ayden Williams as he announces on social media that he has a top six list.
As the Rebels continue to build their 2023 recruiting class, one of the keys will be patience. Some of the top prospects, like Ayden Williams, will take their time and make an informed decision.
The Ridgeland (Miss.) High School wide receiver has just announced his top six institutions:
As arguably the state of Mississippi’s top prospect regardless of position, Williams will continue to be a top priority for many schools, Ole Miss included. His offer list is quite impressive already.
Ole Miss, Auburn, Tennessee, Georgia, Mississippi State, Florida, Florida State, LSU, South Carolina, UCF, and Oregon among others already extended an offer to the highly touted Williams.
APRIL 19, 1:45 PM UPDATE:
Ole Miss has had success at tight end and one of the top recruits at the position has the Rebels in the mix late in the game.
Jelani Thurman, the Fairburn (Ga.) Langston Hughes tight end talent, announced his top schools and the program of course made the cut on Tuesday afternoon.
Along with Ole Miss, Thurman listed Alabama, Ohio State, Tennessee, Auburn, Clemson, Miami and Michigan State in the top eight.
The 6'6" standout was initially targeted by Ole Miss with an offer in September of 2021, one of more than two dozen that came his way to date. Michigan State, Clemson and Auburn have had him on campus this month.
APRIL 18, 10:10 AM UPDATE:
The Rebels are looking to stock up on top offensive linemen for the class of 2023. One of the prime targets for Ole Miss will be headed to campus for an official visit to Oxford this next weekend in Wilkin Formby.
"That's the plan," Formby stated about his upcoming travel plans for an official visit to Ole Miss.
At 6'8", 300-pounds, Formby is a pure tackle prospect and one that can help provide the size needed to play in the SEC West. He's earned offers from numerous college programs, including Alabama, Florida, Tennessee, Kentucky, Florida State, Southern California, Miami, and many others.
This will be his first official visit, and there's no definitive timeline for a decision being made by the talented lineman.
APRIL 14, 1:05 PM UPDATE:
One of the best in Texas has a decision upcoming and Ole Miss is a finalist.
Ryan Yaites, the Denton (Texas) Guyer defensive back standout who also holds his own as a sprinter in track and field events, will commit on Friday morning between Ole Miss, LSU, Cal and Texas Tech.
“I’ve been talking to those guys since I was a little kid," Yaites told SBLive's Andrew Namec. "I have Ole Miss ties since I was eight or nine years old. Now that I’m older and know what it's all about, it’s definitely interesting.”
The class of 2023 recruit did not have the Rebels in his previous top group, but the program did make his top eight late last year.
Yaites was most recently trying to get to Oxford in March, when he told The Grove Report the program made the group of four expand to five.
APRIL 11, 5:30 PM UPDATE:
Ole Miss is still in the running for one of Florida's best.
Miami (Fla.) Dade Christian standout wide receiver William Fowles cut his list of programs to a top eight on Monday evening and the Rebels made the trim, as many expected.
"Ole Miss is a good program, I like Lane Kiffin's offensive scheme,' Fowles said in February. "He likes to throw the ball deep all the time. It's a good scheme for me, it's a good fit for me. I think that would be a good fit for me."
Read More
In addition to the Rebels, Florida, Florida State, Texas A&M, Tennessee, Auburn, Michigan State and USF made the cut. Fowles previously mentioned making a verbal commitment before the 2022 season began.
The Grove Report broke down Fowles' game recently, click here for more.
APRIL 9, 11:30 AM UPDATE:
The first official visitor of the cycle for the Ole Miss Rebels has been a consistent visitor over the years.
Brycen Sanders began his trip late in the week and is set to be in town through Sunday morning, wrapping up the first official visit of the offensive lineman's recruitment.
"It’s going really well," Sanders told SI All-American on Saturday morning.
The Chattanooga (Tenn.) Baylor School standout offensive line recruit dropped a final four less than two weeks ago, with the Rebels battling Tennessee, LSU and Oklahoma for his services from here on out.
"They were my first offer after my sophomore year," Sanders said recently. "Coach (Lane) Kiffin is a great coach, one of the best in the country. Coach (Jake) Thornton, their offensive line coach, is super young and can relate well to the players.
"I like what they are doing with their program."
Sanders wants to make a final decision after his official visits conclude in the month of June.
APRIL 7, 3:20 PM UPDATE:
The Ole Miss staff made sure Nakai Poole knows where he stands with the program on Wednesday.
"Yes on FaceTime they offered me, telling me about the program," Poole told The Grove Report Thursday. "They re-offered me. I was already offered in the past."
Now the 6'3", 205-pound wide receiver out of Norcrosss (Ga.) High School will look to visit Oxford in the very near future.
"I'm supposed to visit next week," he said with a laugh. "No date in particular right now, I've been busy visiting schools. Definitely in a couple of weeks."
Of the program, the new pass catcher target has considerable interest.
"Legendary program! Great staff!" Poole said of Ole Miss. "Great staff, great people and we all know Ole Miss is legendary based off the past and Lane Kiffin."
APRIL 6, 3:30 PM UPDATE:
One of the nation's top tight ends still has Ole Miss in the mix.
Riley Williams, the Portland (Ore.) Central Catholic tight end recruit with more than 20 scholarship offers to his name, trimmed said list to eight programs including the Rebels. Alabama, Ohio State, LSU, Oregon, Michigan, Michigan State and Miami also made the cut for Williams, listed in the 6'6", 230 pound range ahead of his senior season.
Ole Miss entered the race for the west coast talent in February, via assistant coach John David Baker, not long before he planned an ambitious slate of campus visits (including to Oxford). The visit coming to fruition will help the Rebels remain in the hunt moving forward.
"I’m excited to see what Ole Miss has to offer," Williams told Brandon Huffman of 247Sports. "I like what coach Baker has to say. We talk regularly and are building a strong relationship.
"I cannot wait to get to Oxford for a visit."
In 2021, Williams helped Central to a state championship win in hauling in four passes for 140 yards and a score. He is already committed to play in the Under Armour All-America Next Game in January.
APRIL 4, 11:30 AM UPDATE:
Ole Miss is still in the mix for one of its top offensive line targets.
On Sunday afternoon, Madden Sanker announced the next stage of his recruitment with a top 10. Fresh off of a trip to Oxford last weekend, the Rebels made the cut for the Douglasville (Ga.) South Paulding standout.
Georgia, Mississippi State, Arkansas, Vanderbilt, Michigan State, Miami, North Carolina, Louisville and Rutgers rounded out the group he posted via social media. The Bulldogs, Hurricanes and Spartans each also hosted Sanker on campus like the Rebels recently did.
APRIL 2, 11:45 AM UPDATE:
Ole Miss signed multiple recruits from the state of Alabama in the class of 2022 and it continues to push in the Yellowhammer State for 2023.
On Saturday, among the visitors are a trio expected from Highland Home (Ala.) High School, each hearing from Lane Kiffin's program. The most well known is rising senior pass rusher Keldric Faulk, a towering 6'6" athlete who plays football and basketball and has been on the Rebel radar for some time, though he wasn't offered until March 1. His younger brother, Jakaleb Faulk, is a versatile athlete in the 2025 class and already stands 6'3" ahead of the trip.
The emerging talent on the roster, though, is KD Shepherd, who is a two-way athlete listed at 6'2", 192 pounds. The wide receiver projection will be making his first visit to Oxford Saturday, looking for the program to become his latest scholarship offer.
"Biggest thing is that Coach (Derrick) Nix wants me to get down there!" Shepherd told The Grove Report. "This will be the first time. Just trying to enjoy the process. Build some relationships and find a home."
The elder Faulk brother and Shepherd, who has offers from Arkansas and UCF among others, are both in the class of 2023 but they may not be a package deal in the recruiting game.
"We’ve definitely talked about playing against each other," Shepherd said earlier this week.
MARCH 30, 12:40 PM UPDATE:
The newest Ole Miss Rebel secondary target has his eyes on a trip to Oxford.
Lake Wales (Fla.) High School rising senior Jaremiah Anglin heard the good news from the Ole Miss coaching staff on Monday afternoon, the latest in what has become 20-plus scholarship offers in short order.
However, the SEC West extension isn't one he is taking lightly. The 6'1" standout told SI All-American's John Garcia, Jr. that an initial visit to Oxford could be in the works.
"My dad and I are trying to plan a couple more trips now," Anglin said Tuesday. "They (Ole Miss) just really want to get on board and would really like for me to be apart of what they are building in trying to get to the next level.
"They want me to come up ASAP."
Anglin, who was second team Class 6A all-state as a junior in 2021, will visit Florida on Saturday. He was recently at Florida State, UCF and USF in his home state.
MARCH 27, 9:50 AM UPDATE:
Ole Miss hosted a strong group of recruits over the weekend and one new offer has been reported.
Class of 2023 wide receiver Harvey Broussard, visiting Oxford with some 7-on-7 teammates, picked up the extension from Lane Kiffin's staff while in town on Saturday. The Rebels join Maryland, Troy and others as recent programs to jump in on the 6'4" standout. Arkansas and Baylor are also among those courting the Saint Martinville (La.) High School star.
Also a basketball player at the varsity level, Broussard is an emerging wide receiver prospect who is worth keeping an eye on down the line.
Ole Miss has just one verbal commitment in the class to date via in-state athlete Suntarine Perkins.
MARCH 24, 4:00 PM UPDATE:
As Ole Miss hones in on top targets across Dixie, the state of Alabama continues to come up as one where the Rebels are really trying to make a dent with recruiting. One of the top recruits in the Yellowhammer State would be safety Dakaari Nelson from Selma (Ala.) High School. Located in the central region of the state, Nelson has seen a plethora of college coaches pass through his area and offer a scholarship.
He's been offered by the likes of Ole Miss, Auburn, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Michigan, Oregon, Clemson, Tennessee, Florida State, UCF, Penn State, Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi State, Duke, Vanderbilt, South Carolina and North Carolina State.
Listed as a safety but a player that's played cornerback as well in high school, Nelson is a ball hawk. He's one of those rare athletes that possesses the long arms to play in the deep secondary, but also be very athletic with his lateral movements despite being listed at 6'3", 200-pounds. His instincts take care of the rest as he breaks on the football and intercepts passes.
So far for the 2023 recruiting class, Ole Miss offered over 20 players in Alabama. Seeing Nelson's junior film is a great example of why Lane Kiffin and his staff are continuing to make a concerted effort to lure Alabama prep prospects to Oxford, Miss. Keep in mind, Ole Miss signed two top Alabama players last year in cornerback Jarell Stinson from Opelika (Ala.) High School and running back Quinshon Judkins from Pike Road (Ala.) High School.
MARCH 22, 8:15 AM UPDATE:
One of the top junior college prospects in the class of 2023 will be on campus Saturday.
As the visitor list grows with spring practice underway in Oxford, Keenan Landry has been added to the list. The Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College defensive lineman, listed at 6'3". 335 pounds as a freshman in the fall, is originally from Jennings (La.) High School.
In 2021, he played in nine junior college games and registered 31 tackles, including a sack in helping MGCCC to a seven-win regular season.
Landry, who says he has been in contact with new Coordinator of Recruiting Strategy Kelvin Bolden, reports an offer from Florida International and visited the Florida Gators earlier this month.
The Rebels will conduct their third practice of spring on Saturday, March 26, a day The Grove Report is expecting to become popular among junior college and prep recruits alike.
MARCH 21, 8:30 AM UPDATE:
The Rebels are becoming known for their transfer portal prowess but it doesn't slow high school recruiting all together.
New offers are going out and it means new targets are on the board for Lane Kiffin's staff, on both sides of the ball. Sunday provided another example as Antonio Cotman Jr. added the Rebel extension to his list.
The Colonial Heights (Va.) Life Christian Academy standout won MVP honors at the Rivals camp early in the day before getting the good news from cornerbacks coach Sam Carter. Nearly 20 programs now dot the rising-senior's offer list, including Arkansas and South Carolina within the SEC.
Cotman is a bigger prospect for the secondary, checking in at 6'2", 190 pounds. He has visited North Carolina, Penn State, Virginia Tech and South Carolina early in 2022.
Ole Miss has one verbal commitment to date in the class of 2023 in Suntarine Perkins.
MARCH 17, 8:30 AM UPDATE:
One of Ole Miss' top defensive line targets is coming back to Oxford.
Zavion Hardy, a rising senior recruit out of Macon (Ga.) Tattnall Square Academy High School, announced intentions to be back on campus by the end of the month. He will visit on March 26, coinciding with one of the Rebels' spring practice dates as well.
Hardy spent time at Florida earlier this month, not long after dropping his top eight programs. In addition to Ole Miss, UF, Miami, Georgia, South Carolina, Florida State, UCF and Jackson State made the cut for the Peach State standout.
Listed at 6'6", 260 pounds, Hardy does not have a public timetable for a decision. It appears the SEC programs are in best position to jockey for his eventual verbal commitment.
MARCH 16, 3:00 PM UPDATE:
Ole Miss is still in it for one of the top running back recruits on the board.
Denton (Texas) Ryan junior tailback Kalib Hicks, also a track standout in the Lone Star State, trimmed his list of options on Wednesday and the Rebels are still in the running for his verbal commitment. Alabama, Arkansas, Miami, TCU, South Carolina, Baylor, Louisville and Colorado rounded out the group.
The Rebel coaches initially moved on Hicks in late January with a scholarship offer. A visit to Oxford could help the program stay in the hunt. He was recently at Alabama for an unofficial visit.
As a junior in 2021, Hicks helped Ryan High School to a state championship by rushing for 1,448 yards and 18 touchdowns in 13 games of work.
MARCH 14, 8:30 AM UPDATE:
In a move potentially built for Lane Kiffin on Twitter, Ole Miss' top football commitment spent time at Alabama over the weekend as a priority recruit for Nick Saban and his staff.
Suntarine Perkins is arguably the top recruit in Mississippi for the class of 2023, committing to Kiffin's staff back in November of 2021. Since then, many programs have targeted the 6'3", 200-pound athlete, who can play a variety of positions on defense between linebacker to defensive back.
Alabama got involved with a scholarship offer in late January and got Perkins on campus over the weekend along with multiple coaches who lead him at Raleigh (Miss.) High School. Georgia, LSU, Florida State and others continue to recruit the rising-senior recruit despite the pledge to the Rebels.
Perkins, who has frequented Oxford since making his pledge public, is committed to play in the Under Armour All-America Game. He remains the sole verbal commitment to Ole Miss for the class of 2023.
MARCH 9, 9:40 AM UPDATE:
Ole Miss is still in the mix for one of the top tight end prospects in the recruiting class of 2023.
Arlington (Texas) Sam Houston High School tight end Lafayette Kaiuway updated his list of contenders on Wednesday morning and despite several in-state programs making the cut, so did the Rebels.
The next step for Lane Kiffin and company with the 6'6" pass catcher who was offered in November, is to get him on campus in Oxford. With the spring practice schedule now public, there are 15 more opportunities to potentially do so in the near future ahead of the Grove Bowl on April 23.
Kaiuway, who is being recruited primarily by assistant coach John David Baker, will attend the Under Armour All-American camp in Dallas this weekend. As a junior in 2021 he scored nine touchdowns in nine games for Sam Houston.
MARCH 7, 11:30 AM UPDATE:
One of the most critical prospects for Ole Miss to make a run at in the 2023 cycle is highly-recruited defensive lineman Kelby Collins of Alabama.
The inside-out pass rusher out of Gardendale (Ala.) High School visited Oxford over the weekend for the elite junior day and came away with an understanding of how the Rebels have built up to a known recruiting force both from the prep ranks and as a second chance in the transfer portal.
"It was definitely a shocking visit," Collins told John Garcia, Jr. "I see now why they are leading in the transfer portal. The coaching staff is great, they are young and have great experience. I mean they have the greatest defensive coach, possibly, in Lane's dad (Monte Kiffin) and the best, if not one of the best of the offensive minds in Lane Kiffin."
"At the end of the day I’m glad I got down there. The visit shocked me, in a good way, I’ll definitely be going back."
Just getting Collins, already an Under Armour All-American, on campus was a win for Kiffin and company considering Ole Miss wasn't apart of his top schools released in the fall. Also, it's easy to see why he is wanted up front, especially from an athletic standpoint.
Collins says he will visit Tennessee this weekend and then start to narrow his list further.
MARCH 4, 10:45 AM UPDATE:
While there will be a strong Alabama contingent heading to Oxford for a visit on Saturday, the state of Georgia will have elite recruits set to see Ole Miss as well.
Both Ethan Nation and Cayden Lee have confirmed plans to be in town for a fresh look at Lane Kiffin's program this weekend.
Nation is a blue-chip defensive back from Roswell High School who has sported an offer from Ole Miss for well more than a year at this point. Lee, a.k.a. Honeycomb as the graphic he posted suggests, is a pass catcher out of Westlake High School who just recently picked up the Rebel offer in February.
Both are members of the class of 2023, where Ole Miss has just one verbal commitment at this time.
MARCH 3, 12:30 PM UPDATE:
The state of Mississippi is loaded with talent just about every year. Even with that in mind, the Rebels need to pick their spots and go after specific out-of-state targets. To that point, there are certain positions that require scouring the country to find the best possible prospects, and that’s what Ole Miss is doing with cornerback recruiting.
If you look at the rosters of the teams that are consistently competing for a College Football Playoff berth, many of those rosters will be full of in-state players. Fair enough. When looking at cornerback for any one of those schools – such as Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State – there’s a good chance that at least one if not two of the starters hail from out of their own state borders.
Point blank, cornerback recruiting matters. A lack of cornerback talent will get a team beat really quick. That’s one of the reasons that Kiffin and his staff are taking a broader look at cornerback recruiting. Case in point, the offer to a top St. Louis cornerback today.
The 6’0”, 180-pound talent from a DeSmet High School program that’s commonly churning out prospects has been tested. It’s the same program that sent players to Missouri, Baylor, Illinois and Ohio State from the class of 2021 alone.
As for Gray specifically, he has the quickness and speed to already hold offers from LSU and Notre Dame (the two perceived leaders), Ohio State, Tennessee, Florida, Southern California, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Indiana, Kansas State, Iowa State, Miami, Kentucky, and Minnesota among others.
Good to see the Rebels jump in the mix for Gray, as well as potentially look at a very talented St. Louis area that consistently produces players that are SEC worthy.
MARCH 2, 7:30 AM UPDATE:
Dee Crayton is one of the most well rounded linebacker prospects in the country. The ability to play middle linebacker or weak side linebacker is evident with his pass coverage skills, and the 6’1”, 220-pound linebacker with a self-reported 3.4 GPA is still a threat to be a thumper in the middle of the defense as well.
Crayton has been adding offers along the recruiting trail of late with free rides from Ole Miss, Clemson, Kansas, Jackson State, Arizona State, and Coastal Carolina among others for the Under Armour All-America Game invitee.
Another linebacker was also extended an offer by the Rebels coaching staff with S’Maje Burrell from North Crowley (Texas) High School. Located just south of Fort Worth, Texas, the high school Burrell plays for is in the midst of one of the most competitive high school football areas in the country on the edge of Dallas.
With offers from Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Missouri, Kansas State, Houston, Southern California, Arizona State and many others under his belt, Burrell has a plethora of offers to choose from already. The 6’1”, 215-pound linebacker also self-reports a 3.6 GPA.
MARCH 1, 4:45 PM UPDATE:
Over the course of the past few days, Lane Kiffin and his staff have been very busy along the recruiting trail. As The Grove Report and Rebel fans prepare for Ole Miss spring practice, note that the coaching staff in Oxford is still putting in the work with recruits.
One of the best players in all of South Florida was offered in Jayvant Brown, a linebacker that recently transferred to Saint Thomas Aquinas. Brown has offers from several Power Five programs like Texas, Ohio State, Florida, Alabama, LSU, Penn State, and Florida State.
With Kiffin’s connections to South Florida, along with his well known recruiting prowess, it will be interesting to see how many players out of the greater Fort Lauderdale-Miami area that Ole Miss can sign within the class of 2023.
Continuing with the skill talent but moving to the state of North Carolina, Ole Miss has offered top running back Daylan Smothers. He plays for Charlotte (N.C.) Chambers. Just in the month of February, Smothers earned offers from North Carolina State, Miami, Alabama and now Ole Miss. That’s quite a month for the 5’11”, 185-pound running back.
It's interesting to see Ole Miss attempt to dive deep into ACC territory, showing that Kiffin and his staff want to go after the best athletes regardless of where they may reside.
FEBRUARY 29, 9:00 PM UPDATE:
ALPHARETTA, Ga. - One of the best players the state of Mississippi has to offer for the class of 2023 talks about the Rebels, as well as Ole Miss Head Coach Lane Kiffin.
Top prospects from across the South, including the state of Mississippi joined up to compete at this year’s Atlanta Under Armour Camp. One of the top prospects in attendance was Ayden Williams from Ridgeland (Miss.) High School.
Williams’ recruitment really started to take hold last summer when he was one of the more well known recruits along the seven-on-seven circuit, as well as turning heads at the University of Florida’s Friday Night Lights even at the end of summer. He’s been a top target for the Rebels for quite a while.
He took a few minutes to discuss his recruitment with The Grove Report after his performance.
“I’m about 6’3”, 190-pounds,” Williams said after stepping off the turf at Denmark High School. “I lost a little weight because of basketball season, but I’m going to say 190.”
The lanky receiver is taking his time with visits come the month of March, but he’s taking recruiting one day at a time.
“I really don’t have any visits planned in March right now. It’s really just undecided right now. I’m just taking it as they come right now.”
As for the schools recruiting Williams the hardest, he offered the following.
“The hardest? Ole Miss, Oklahoma…I don’t have the Oklahoma offer yet, but I talk to Oklahoma a good bit. And I just talked to Georgia during the (Under Armour) Camp. They said they are going to hit me up Monday, and they are definitely going to be one of my top schools.”
When discussing distance from his home, Williams was somewhat undecided.
“It doesn’t matter to me, as long as I am able to come back and see my family I can really go to New York or somewhere (for college).”
As for the Rebels, the curiosity of what Williams thinks of the Head Coach in Oxford had to be asked.
“No, he’s a different guy! He different. He’s chill, but he’s different. You can tell with Lane Kiffin, he’s cut from a different cloth. If you are around him, he’s so cool, like nothing bothers him. He’s just cool. He was talking to my family and stuff. He’s just a laid back person.”
Stay tuned to The Grove Report as we bring you more interviews with top prospects like Williams.
FEBRUARY 28, 11:15 AM UPDATE:
One of the top Ole Miss targets in the state of Georgia will be back in Oxford this weekend. As the visitor list for the spring visit period starts to ramp up, Keion Wallace will be on it, he says.
Lane Kiffin's program is building up to a big visit weekend beginning March 5 and Wallace is one of many with offers expected to attend. The Springfield (Ga.) Effingham County standout, listed at 6'3', 200 pounds, will make his return trip to campus Saturday.
The pass catcher initially picked up his Rebel offer back in August 2021 and the program has been in touch with the interesting athlete, who also plays varsity basketball and was named all region this month, ever since. Texas A&M, Florida State, Virginia Tech, Michigan State and others are among the suitors for Wallace at this time.
As a junior, Wallace suffered a shoulder injury that cost him the 2021 season. Now healthy, Wallace participated in the Under Armour Next All-America Game camp in Atlanta over the weekend and flashed his length and pass catching ability.
FEBRUARY 27, 9:00 AM UPDATE:
Arguably the top in-state wide receiver recruit in the state of Mississippi will likely be back in Oxford for the Rebels' spring game.
Ayden Williams, the Ridgeland (Miss.) High School star player, told The Grove Report's Brian Smith he would "probably" be back in Oxford to watch the annual game as the college football world turns the calendar towards the 2022 season.
The Under Armour All-American has been a priority for Lane Kiffin's coaching staff for more than a year, originally picking up the offer way back in September of 2020, and he was recently on campus with his fellow Mississippi Heat 7-on-7 teammates in late January.
The 2022 spring game, a.k.a. the Grove Bowl, is set for April 23 with kickoff set for noon CT.
FEBRUARY 26, 7:30 AM UPDATE:
Ole Miss extended an offer to one of the best players in the Magnolia State, Dante Dowdell of Picayune (Miss.) High School. The 6’2”, 215-pound running back was named the Max Preps 5A Player of the Year after rushing for 2,555 yards and 28 touchdowns.
In addition to Ole Miss, Dowdell has been offered a scholarship by Georgia Tech, Auburn, Arkansas State, Louisiana, UCF, Oregon, Florida State, Boston College, Southern Miss, Akron, Western Carolina, Georgia State, Alcorn State, University of Louisiana-Monroe, and Tulane.
A one-cut-and-go running back that consistently delivers the blows more than accepting them, Dowdell also does a tremendous job of keeping his balance while tackles shoot for his lower legs. His vision and speed allow for finding the hole and creating big plays at the second and third level. Check out his highlights:
FEBRUARY 25, 11:00 AM UPDATE:
Ole Miss is targeting a Big 12 commitment.
On Thursday, the Rebels extended an offer to two-way Oak Grove (La.) standout Kamryn Franklin, a member of the class of 2023 who has experience at wide receiver and defensive back.
Franklin, who also plays basketball at Oak Grove High School, committed to Oklahoma State on November 21 following a campus visit, though he continues to pick up scholarship offers since. Arkansas, Louisville and Purdue are among those also interested in the 6'3", 197-pound prospect.
As a junior in 2021, Franklin helped Oak Grove football to the Louisiana Class 1A state semi-finals on each side of the football. In college he likely projects as a defensive back, the same position group OSU is leaning towards projecting him at.
FEBRUARY 23, 11:45 AM UPDATE:
Ole Miss has been busy courting 2023 recruits and one of its premiere targets is still considering the program despite trimming his list.
Zavion Hardy, a rising-senior pass rusher out of Macon (Ga.) Tattnall Square Academy High School, released his top eight programs on Tuesday afternoon. In addition to Ole Miss, Jackson State, South Carolina, Florida State, Florida, Miami, Georgia and UCF made the cut.
Hardy stands 6'6", 240 pounds and originally picked up the Rebel offer extension on September 1, the first day juniors in 2021 could receive communication from college programs electronically or via the phone.
The Rebels were among the first to offer the Peach State standout, who was named All-State following the 2021 season having registered 12 tackles for loss and four sacks in eight games, according to MaxPreps.

There are a million ways to tell even very old stories. Beauty, directed by Andrew Dosunmu and written by Lena Waithe, riffs on a classic theme, the idea of a gifted artist being torn her between career and her family, scrambling to find a balance between her own ambition and the demands of the people closest to her. A scheming parent who sees his offspring as a big dollar sign, a wily manager who tries to force a burgeoning talent into the most lucrative mold, a lover who doesn’t fit easily into the plan for fame and fortune: Beauty has it all, including a winsome young star, Gracie Marie Bradley, as the Beauty of the film’s title, a woman who’s naively sure of her destiny despite all the forces holding her back.
Yet Beauty—set in the 1980s and bearing more than a passing resemblance to the real-life story of Whitney Houston—never quite gels. The movie’s opening introduces us to Beauty and maps out her family’s dynamic: Her father (Giancarlo Esposito) is domineering and verbally abusive toward her two brothers, but adores her—though his love for her comes with certain expectations, and a price. Her mother (Niecy Nash) is a gifted performer who has spent her life singing backup, never daring to reach for stardom herself. She knows how extraordinarily talented her daughter is, and is trying to guide her properly, though her envy sometimes muddies the message. She and Beauty’s father have had stern disagreements about the hard-as-nails manager (Sharon Stone) who’s angling to sign Beauty as a client: Beauty’s father is all for it, but her mother hesitates, fearing that her daughter might be destroyed by the system, and by fame.
Sign up for More to the Story, TIME’s weekly entertainment newsletter, to get the context you need for the pop culture you love.
There’s another complication: Beauty is deeply in love with Jas (Aleyse Shannon), and the two want to build a life together. But Beauty’s father hates Jas and sees her as a deterrent to Beauty’s success. Meanwhile, Jas tries to get Beauty to think for herself, urging her to get a lawyer before she signs any contract, which only fuels her father’s ire.
Read more reviews by Stephanie Zacharek
Through it all Beauty is something of a ghost, a point that’s made repeatedly by Dosunmu, who treats us to many, many shots of Beauty watching taped performances of her idols—chief among them Mahalia Jackson and Ella Fitzgerald—as we see her face, rapt yet somehow featureless, reflected in the glass of the television tube. This is a device with a capital D, a style choice that comes to feel rote. We never hear Beauty sing, another stylistic choice but one that does make some sense: at one point Beauty’s brassy manager, as portrayed by Stone, urges her to sing “Over the Rainbow” on her first TV appearance as a way of ingratiating herself with white audiences. She also admonishes Beauty to keep her relationship with Jas in the background, seeing it as a major stumbling block on Beauty’s road to stardom.
The point is that to most of those around her, save Jas, Beauty is more a vessel than an actual person, an idea that’s poignant if you know anything about Houston’s story and how her life was orchestrated by those around her, at the expense of her own happiness. But Waithe and Dosunmu—the filmmaker behind the 2013 indie film Mother of George, a beautifully wrought drama about infertility—flirt with tense dramatic developments only to shrug them off without exploring them. It’s often hard to tell exactly what’s happening in a scene and why; certain characters behave in ways that are convenient to the plot but don’t wholly make sense. Dosunmu favors oblique camera angles and swimmy soft-focus views, again, perhaps, to mimic Beauty’s smudged sense of herself as a person. But Beauty ends before it has really dug into anything of consequence. Its heroine, whom we know is headed for trouble, is left stranded in the middle of her own story. When she opens her mouth to sing, no sound comes out, and she’s stuck in that cycle of voicelessness for eternity.

MARKET WRAP: JSE ends the month on a sour note
Thursday’s losses take the bourse’s decline to 8.14% for the month and 10.16% so far this year as investors fret about recession
The JSE fell the most in two weeks on Thursday, tracking weaker global markets in what has been a tough month, with investors continuing to price in further pain.
Markets have endured a torrid first half of the year that has been dominated by surging inflation, rate hikes, Russia’s ongoing war in Ukraine and Covid-19 lockdowns in China — all of which have helped fuel fears of a global recession...

Emily Engel-Natzke has been hired as video coach of the Washington Capitals, making her the first woman to hold a full-time position on a National Hockey League coaching staff.
The Capitals announced the hire Thursday, the latest in a series of promotions for women around the NHL in recent months after decades of slow progress in diversifying the sport in the coaching and executive ranks.
“It’s kind of surreal,” Engel-Natzke said about being the first woman to be named an NHL video coach. “I’ve never kind of really looked at myself in that lens, and I think if you may have asked me a week ago, I wouldn’t have wanted it to be a big deal. But with everything that’s going on kind of geopolitically, I think I’m more so just honored to be, I guess, the first. Hopefully that just opens the door even further for people who want to get into this job and this profession.”
Engel-Natzke, 31, came from the Hershey Bears, Washington’s top minor league affiliate, where she was the first woman to be a full-time member of a coaching staff in the American Hockey League.
“This was earned and deserved,” coach Peter Laviolette said. “We feel like we hired really a qualified person that we brought into the organization two years ago and came in and did an outstanding job, and that’s what development is all about. For me, we got the best person and that’s the most important thing.”
Engel-Natzke, who played two seasons of Division III hockey at Adrian College from 2010-12, began doing video for the University of Wisconsin men’s and women’s programs in 2015. She became a full-time assistant for men’s coach Tony Granato a couple years later.
“When she first came on, one of the questions I asked her is: ‘What do you want to do with this? Is this a full-time gig for you? Is it something you want to try to pursue at a different level?’” Granato said. “And she said, ‘Yep, I want to figure out how I can be the first woman to make it to the NHL on the video side of things.’”
Engel-Natzke got a heavy workload at Wisconsin to prepare her for the pros and then took another step in Hershey, presenting 5-on-5 scouting reports of opponents and becoming more involved in the day-to-day operation of the team.
“She’s grown a lot in her position, just to learn the professional side of the game,” Bears VP of hockey operations Bryan Helmer said. “Emily is a very hard worker that wants to learn, and in the two years she was here, she did that. She was always wanting to do more than to contribute to the team in any which way she can to make us succeed.”
After learning about her from longtime Capitals video coach Brett Leonhardt, Helmer, like Laviolette, said Hershey hired Engel-Natzke based off experience and her interview. “You take her name her resume and put any name, she was qualified,” he said.
Engel-Natzke’s hire comes on the heels of the Chicago Blackhawks promoting Meghan Hunter to assistant general manager and the New Jersey Devils promoting Meghan Duggan to director of player development. Hunter became the fourth woman to be named an assistant GM, joining Vancouver’s Emilie Castonguay and Cammi Granato as women currently in that job.
“It’s been really encouraging that you’re seeing women in different roles, whether it’s in coaching, whether it’s in management, athletic training and equipment management,” Engel-Natzke said. “Hopefully the door just keeps opening a little bit more and I hope in a couple years it’s not as big of a deal — it’s kind of just another hire.”

Emotional and mental health advocate, Kyli Santiago receives the June 2022 Literary Titan Gold Award for her poetry book, Healing Yesterday's Tears
ATLANTA, June 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Kyli Santiago's award-winning collection Healing Yesterday's Tears aims to raise awareness and show women that by using the healing power of poetry, they can overcome emotional trauma and reclaim their strength.
No stranger to the struggles of womanhood, the poet passionately states, "From the time we're little girls, women are taught to adhere to societal conditions that program us to stay small, weak, and submissive. This horrible state of mind leaves us predisposed to a vicious cycle of low self-esteem and low self-worth. My mission is to help women everywhere break the invisible chains that bond them and use poetry to find their voices, value their worth, and reclaim their power."
Creatively rich and introspective, Healing Yesterday's Tears addresses painful topics like depression, emotional abuse, domestic violence, rape, low self-worth, and single motherhood, while skillfully interweaving themes of self-love, empowerment, inner strength, and healing. This powerful book is an invaluable self-esteem building resource that no woman braving this challenging world should be without!
"Santiago always leaves readers feeling strengthened and emboldened to meet obstacles head-on. I highly recommend Santiago's work to anyone looking for the inspiration to love themselves again." – Literary Titan
"Being in abusive relationships destroys one's self-esteem. Through these poems, Kyli aims to help [women] discover self-love and encourages them to practice self-preservation. If you're looking for some moving introspective poetry to delve into, I highly recommend Healing Yesterday's Tears." – Pikasho Deka, Readers' Favorite
"Use the words of this book to motivate you to keep moving forward. Love yourself. Get rid of the negative and the toxic. Realize your worth." - Philip Van Heusen, Readers' Favorite
Winner of the June 2022 Literary Titan Gold Book Award Healing Yesterday's Tears is available in Paperback and eBook on Amazon, and wherever books are sold.

SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) – As the Fourth of July holiday approaches, the medical community wants to make sure a trip to the emergency room isn’t part of your long weekend.
“We see a lot of injuries from fireworks, especially from people who are just not using them safely,” said Dr. Jay Goldstein, an emergency room physician at Memorial Health.
“A lot of hand injuries and ear injuries,” Goldstein explained, “and then we see a lot of teenagers that like to shoot fireworks at other teenagers and those cause a lot of complications.
“So I would say fireworks safety is of utmost importance.”
And while parents might think giving sparklers to their children is harmless, Goldstein warned against it.
“Those are extremes of heat,” he said. “I think they get up over 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit, and you’re talking about third-degree burns.”
Wayne Ifill, a battalion chief at the Savannah Fire Department agreed. He said even if a child held a sparkler at arm’s length, the sparks could still land on their shoulder.
“So be mindful of what you’re giving kids,” Ifill added.
For the adults who plan on using the fireworks, he said it’s best to have a designated area with a hose nearby. Ifill recommended having a “zone” where you will be using the fireworks, and don’t try to light duds that don’t go off the first time because that can be dangerous.
Ifill also indicated that while fireworks are allowed, it’s only on your private property, not out in the street or in a public place like a park.
The battalion chief said to never use something like a match or cigarette lighter to light a fuse on a firecracker. He suggested using something long like incense that’s already burning and that will keep you from burning your hands.
Goldstein also advised wearing some protective gear.
“I would say ear protection and eye protection are of utmost importance because those fireworks can cause damage, especially if you’re going to be lighting them all the time,” he said.
“We talked about a secure area, depending on what kind of fireworks you’re going to be lighting,” Goldstein continued. “Dud fireworks can actually cause a lot of problems. You should never re-light a firework that did not go off.”
WSAV NOW recently spoke with an animal rescue official on fireworks safety for pets.

ULSTER TOWNSHIP — The Bradford County Humane Society is at capacity for dogs and could potentially end municipal contracts to save money and make more room for dogs at its facility.
The animal shelter reached maximum capacity on June 24 when a Pennsylvania state trooper dropped off a stray dog at its Ulster facility, according to BCHS Executive Director Maryanne Bell. BCHS currently has around around 25 strays dogs.
“The Bradford County Humane Society has been reeling for the last six months from the quick rise in stray and unwanted dogs disguised as strays,” Bell stated. “At the same time other factors have come together to create a perfect storm for our local animals.”
In the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, people stayed home with their dogs, which meant less of them at the shelter. Currently, that trend has changed as more people are going back to work and the animal shelters are filling up with animals again.
“When we get strays they are often sick or injured,” Bell said. “Most of them are eventually adopted, but right now adoptions are slow.”
BCHS operates almost entirely on donations from private individuals, Bell stated.
“Out of a yearly budget of about $280,000, municipalities in Sullivan and Bradford counties pay about $13,000 in stray contracts, which obligate the Humane Society to take every stray that comes in the door,” Bell said. “We love having the contracts, but we won’t fulfill them if the trend continues and strays are coming in all the time.”
BCHS has been a no kill shelter since 2012 and Bell stated that the shelter plans to remain as such.
“We could save many more dogs if we didn’t have strays occupying all of our kennels,” Bell said. “I hate the situation that we are in because I love these stray dogs and we have high hopes for all of them, but it takes a long time and a lot of money.”
She encourages people to help by adopting a dog now if they need one. Another solution is for people to contribute monetary donations that would pay for expenses and possibly more kennels. | https://www.thedailyreview.com/news/local/bradford-county-humane-society-at-max-capacity-for-dogs/article_c9eed5f3-f20c-5748-9a50-f8338bffe49d.html | 2022-06-30T17:46:12Z | https://www.thedailyreview.com/news/local/bradford-county-humane-society-at-max-capacity-for-dogs/article_c9eed5f3-f20c-5748-9a50-f8338bffe49d.html | false | 1 |
Bill headed to Murphy would help low-income bidders buy foreclosed homes in NJ more easily
New Jersey may make it easier for family members, lower income bidders and community nonprofits to purchase foreclosed homes under a bill sent to Gov. Phil Murphy on Wednesday reworking the sheriff's sale process to prioritize these buyers and discourage large investors from flipping those properties.
Under the “Community Wealth Preservation Program," New Jerseyans who have experienced foreclosure or their next of kin would get the first shot when the property goes up for auction, or the right of first refusal at the bid price.
And if a distressed homeowner can’t secure financing, they or a family member can request that a community development group buy the property and the nonprofit would have the second right of refusal, or second shot, at the bid price. If a housing nonprofit wins the bid on a foreclosed property, it would be required to restore and sell the house to a low-income family making no more than 120% of the county’s median income, or else rent the home to a family making below 100% of the county’s median income.
"It's really to keep the wealth in the community, to empower residents through homeownership and not just serve as low hanging fruit to outside investors who are trying to come in and capture these properties for pennies on the dollar," said Assemblywoman Britnee Timberlake, D-Essex, who sponsored the bill.
New Jersey consistently tops rankings of states with the highest foreclosure rates in the country. Data from May 2022 shows that one out of every 2,346 housing units were in foreclosure in the Garden State, the most behind only Illinois, according to a report from ATTOM, which analyzes nationwide real estate data.
In the wake of the 2008 housing crisis, investors began rapidly buying up residential properties in foreclosure across the country, often in majority Black counties, according to a recent report by the House Financial Services Committee. A Rutgers study found almost half of residential sales in Newark went to institutional investor buyers, which contributed to "rapidly rising rents, decreased homeownership, higher barriers to affordable housing production goals, renter displacement and less stable communities," according to report by authors David Troutt and Katharine Nelson.

The New Jersey bill seeks to curb the practice and give families a leg up if they plan to stay in the neighborhood. Currently, a winning bidder must immediately pay a deposit of 20% of the property purchase price in cash or cashier's check to the sheriff. The bill, A793/S1427, would lower that deposit amount to 3.5% for those intending to live in the home for at least seven years.
"When the home becomes underwater, oftentimes banks do not like to offer a principal rate reduction," Timberlake said, referring to when a lender decreases the amount owed on a mortgage. "But at the time of foreclosure, the most interesting thing is they usually start the bid for investors at like half of what the person owes. So, to me that's so unfair and disingenuous because they're basically offering a principal rate reduction to an outside investor."
The full Senate passed the legislation 22-15 during a marathon session Wednesday that included the state budget and dozens of other bills, months after the Assembly approved the bill 46-30 in March. Murphy's office declined to comment on whether or not the governor would sign the bill into law.
How it works
Bidders intending to live in the property for seven years would also have more than the current 30 days to put the rest of the money down. Under the bill, buyers could take up to 90 business days to complete a sale, and interest would not accrue on the balance for the first 60 days after a sale. If bidders can’t complete the sale through no fault of their own — such as when the appraised value is less than what they purchased the property for — they won’t be responsible for penalties or fees.
Under the bill, bidders can buy the property using financing if they provide documentation they were pre-approved by a financial institution regulated by the Department of Banking and Insurance. They must also prove they have completed eight hours of homebuyer education counseling through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
If the buyer finances the bid and doesn't live in the property for the required seven years, he can be fined $100,000, except in extenuating circumstances, like if the bidder or close family member died or became disabled.
If a community nonprofit wins the bid and intends to sell the property, the house must include a 30-year deed restriction that keeps the sale price affordable for low-income families to live in.
“The Community Wealth Preservation Program will play a key part in addressing the state’s affordability crisis," said Staci Berger, president and CEO of the Housing and Community Development Network of New Jersey. “Families that own their homes have the assets to create and expand businesses, send their children to college, or build a nest egg for a secure retirement. By expanding generational wealth, we can help lay a foundation that makes our state an affordable place to call home for generations to come."
The New Jersey Bankers Association opposes the bill and requested that the program be tested in one county.
“We're concerned newly added biding provisions contain serious unintended consequences,” said Michael Affuso, executive vice president of the New Jersey Bankers Association. “We would ask that this be done as a pilot in Essex County to see exactly how this economic effect would take place.” | https://www.northjersey.com/story/news/state/2022/06/30/nj-real-estate-buy-foreclosure-homes-low-income-curb-flipping-houses/65365308007/ | 2022-06-30T17:48:36Z | https://www.northjersey.com/story/news/state/2022/06/30/nj-real-estate-buy-foreclosure-homes-low-income-curb-flipping-houses/65365308007/ | false | 1 |

MOSCOW (AP) — A leading economic expert in Russia was detained Thursday on embezzlement charges as part of a high-profile case that some observers saw as linked to purges targeting members of the country's liberal elite.
Investigators accused Vladimir Mau, the rector of the Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration, embezzling funds from the institution, a leading school for public servants. Mau denied the charges.
The investigators asked Moscow's Tverskoi District Court to put Mau under house arrest during their ongoing probe, while Mau asked the court to free him on bail.
Since the early 1990s, Mau has served as a senior economic adviser to the Russian government. He received high state awards from President Vladimir Putin in 2012 and 2017.
The investigators said the accusations were part of a broader embezzlement probe in which Marina Rakova, a former deputy education minister who worked alongside Mau, testified against him.
Rakova and Sergei Zuyev, the rector of the Moscow School of Social and Economic Sciences, a leading non-state Russian university, also faced embezzlement accusations. Zuyev denied them.
Kremlin critics have described the arrests as part of a widening government crackdown on independent voices amid the military action in Ukraine.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov refused to comment on Mau's detention. | https://www.greenwichtime.com/news/article/Top-Russian-economic-expert-faces-embezzlement-17276810.php | 2022-06-30T17:57:59Z | https://www.greenwichtime.com/news/article/Top-Russian-economic-expert-faces-embezzlement-17276810.php | true | 11 |
To find out how astronauts recover once their feet are back on the ground, a new study scanned the wrists and ankles of 17 astronauts before, during and after a stay on the International Space Station.
The bone density lost by astronauts was equivalent to how much they would shed in several decades if they were back on Earth, said study co-author Steven Boyd of Canada's University of Calgary and director of the McCaig Institute for Bone and Joint Health.
The researchers found that the shinbone density of nine of the astronauts had not fully recovered after a year on Earth, and were still lacking around a decade's worth of bone mass.
The astronauts who went on the longest missions, which ranged from four to seven months on the ISS, were the slowest to recover.
"The longer you spend in space, the more bone you lose," Boyd told AFP.
Boyd said it is a "big concern" for planned future missions to Mars, which could see astronauts spend years in space.
"Will it continue to get worse over time or not? We don't know," he said.
"It's possible we hit a steady state after a while, or it's possible that we continue to lose bone. But I can't imagine that we'd continue to lose it until there's nothing left,” he added.
A 2020 modeling study predicted that over a three-year spaceflight to Mars, 33 percent of astronauts would be at risk of osteoporosis.
Boyd said some answers could come from research currently being carried out on astronauts who spent at least a year onboard the ISS.
Guillemette Gauquelin-Koch, the head of medicine research at France's CNES space agency, said that the weightlessness experienced in space is "most drastic physical inactivity there is".
"Even with two hours of sport a day, it is like you are bedridden for the other 22 hours. It will not be easy for the crew to set foot on Martian soil when they arrive, it's very disabling," said the doctor, who was not part of the study.
'The silent disease'
The new study, which was published in Scientific Reports, also showed how spaceflight alters the structure of bones themselves.
Boyd said that if you thought of a body's bones like the Eiffel Tower, it would as if some of the connecting metal rods that hold the structure up were lost.
"And when we return to Earth, we thicken up what's remaining, but we don't actually create new rods," he said.
Some exercises are better for retaining bone mass than others, the study found.
Deadlifting proved significantly more effective than running or cycling, it said, suggesting heavier lower-body exercises in the future.
But the astronauts, who are mostly fit and in their 40s, did not tend to notice the drastic bone loss, Boyd said, pointing out that the Earth-bound equivalent osteoporosis is known as "the silent disease".
Canadian astronaut Robert Thirsk, who has spent the most time in space, said that for him bones and muscles took the longest to recover after spaceflight.
"But within a day of landing, I felt comfortable again as an Earthling," he said in a statement accompanying the research. | https://en.prothomalo.com/science-technology/science/astronauts-struggle-to-regain-bone-density | 2022-06-30T18:03:44Z | https://en.prothomalo.com/science-technology/science/astronauts-struggle-to-regain-bone-density | false | 11 |
June 30, 2022 – For older adults, getting the annual flu shot may do more than protect against the flu. It may also reduce the risk of getting Alzheimer’s disease.
In a large study of vaccinated and unvaccinated adults ages 65 and older, those who received at least one influenza vaccine were less likely than unvaccinated peers to get Alzheimer’s over the course of 4 years.
But it’s not a one and done. The strength of the protective effect increased with the number of years that a person received an annual flu shot, such that the rate of developing Alzheimer’s was lowest in people who consistently got the flu vaccine every year.
"Influenza infection can cause serious health complications, particularly in adults 65 and older," says Avram Bukhbinder, MD, with UTHealth in Houston.
"Our study's findings – that vaccination against the flu virus may also reduce the risk of Alzheimer's dementia for at least a few years – adds to the already compelling reasons to talk with your doctor about getting the flu vaccine annually," he says.
This study "suggests that flu vaccination may be valuable for maintaining cognition and memory as we age. This is even more relevant today in the COVID-19 environment," says Heather Snyder, PhD, with the Alzheimer's Association.
More than 6 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's. By 2050, this number is projected to rise to nearly 13 million, according to the Alzheimer’s Association.
The Houston researchers compared the risk of Alzheimer’s in roughly 935,000 flu-vaccinated adults and a similar number of non-vaccinated adults ages 65 and older.
Over the course of 4 years, about 5% of flu-vaccinated adults got Alzheimer’s disease, compared to around 9% of adults who weren’t vaccinated.
The risk of getting Alzheimer’s disease was 40% lower in the vaccinated group.
The apparent protective effect on dementia may not be specific to the flu vaccine. Past studies have found ties between other adult vaccinations – including those for tetanus, polio, herpes, and pneumonia – and a lower risk of dementia.
And as more time passes since the introduction of the COVID-19 vaccine, it will be worth investigating whether a similar association exists between COVID-19 vaccination and a lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease, the researchers say.
Snyder cautions that it’s "too early to tell if getting flu vaccine, on its own, can reduce risk of Alzheimer’s. More research is needed to understand the biological mechanisms behind the results in this study."
"For example, it is possible that people who are getting vaccinated also take better care of their health in other ways, and these things add up to lower risk of Alzheimer’s and other dementias," Snyder says. "It is also possible that there are issues related to unequal access and/or vaccine hesitancy and how this may influence the study population and the research results.” | https://www.webmd.com/vaccines/news/20220630/flu-vaccine-older-minds-sharp-study?src=RSS_PUBLIC | 2022-06-30T18:05:48Z | https://www.webmd.com/vaccines/news/20220630/flu-vaccine-older-minds-sharp-study?src=RSS_PUBLIC | true | 1 |

Emily Engel-Natzke wanted to make the National Hockey League as a video coach.
When the Washington Capitals named Engel-Natzke video coordinator on Thursday, she not only accomplished that goal, but she also became the first woman to hold a full-time position on an NHL coaching staff.
“I’ve never kind of really looked at myself in that lens, and I think if you may have asked me a week ago, I wouldn’t have wanted it to be a big deal," Engel-Natzke said. "But with everything that’s going on kind of geopolitically, I think I’m more so just honored to be, I guess, the first. Hopefully that just opens the door even further for people who want to get into this job and this profession.”
It's the latest in a series of promotions for women around the NHL in recent months after decades of slow progress in diversifying the sport in the coaching and executive ranks.
“This was earned and deserved,” coach Peter Laviolette said. “We feel like we hired really a qualified person that we brought into the organization two years ago and came in and did an outstanding job, and that’s what development is all about. For me, we got the best person and that’s the most important thing.”
Engel-Natzke's path to Washington began in earnest in 2017 when she began working as the full-time video coach for University of Wisconsin men's hockey coach Tony Granato following several years assisting with the men's and women's programs there.
“When she first came on, one of the questions I asked her is: ‘What do you want to do with this? Is this a full-time gig for you? Is it something you want to try to pursue at a different level?’” Granato said. “And she said, ‘Yep, I want to figure out how I can be the first woman to make it to the NHL on the video side of things.’”
Engel-Natzke, 31, came from the Hershey Bears, Washington's top minor league affiliate, where she was the first woman to be a full-time member of a coaching staff in the American Hockey League.
After playing two seasons of Division III hockey at Adrian College, Engel-Natzke got a heavy workload at Wisconsin to prepare her for the pros and then took another step in Hershey, presenting 5-on-5 scouting reports of opponents and becoming more involved in the day-to-day operation of the team.
“She’s grown a lot in her position, just to learn the professional side of the game,” Bears VP of hockey operations Bryan Helmer said. “Emily is a very hard worker that wants to learn, and in the two years she was here, she did that. She was always wanting to do more than to contribute to the team in any which way she can to make us succeed.”
After learning about her from longtime Capitals video coach Brett Leonhardt, Helmer, like Laviolette, said Hershey hired Engel-Natzke based off experience and her interview. “You take her name off her resume and put any name, she was qualified,” he said.
Engel-Natzke's hire comes on the heels of the Chicago Blackhawks promoting Meghan Hunter to assistant general manager and the New Jersey Devils promoting Meghan Duggan to director of player development. Hunter became the fourth woman to be named an assistant GM, joining Vancouver's Emilie Castonguay and Cammi Granato as women currently in that job.
"It’s been really encouraging that you’re seeing women in different roles, whether it’s in coaching, whether it’s in management, athletic training and equipment management," Engel-Natzke said. “Hopefully the door just keeps opening a little bit more and I hope in a couple years it’s not as big of a deal — it’s kind of just another hire.”

Superior Protection Professionals is looking to help keep people safe even when their guards can't be around.
TOMS RIVER, N.J., June 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Last week Superior Protection Professionals, a security guard agency headquartered in Toms River, NJ, donated 20 bullet-proof backpacks to the Toms River School District. "Our company was formed with the sole purpose of protecting people," company owner and retired Toms River police officer Kelly Conklin said. "Being our guards only cover NJ we wanted to help keep people safe all over the country so these bullet-proof backpacks are the perfect way to do it.".
With the recent school tragedy in Texas, these backpacks, which can stop bullets from 95% of the guns used in gun violence in the country each year, have become hot selling items. Some companies have experienced up to an 800% increase in sales when these incidents happen. "Although our backpacks are widely used by students in schools, adults are also purchasing them as their everyday backpack. They carry them to work to have with them as a shield in the event of a shooting. Mass transit travelers use them on subways, buses, and airplanes for added protection. They mitigate the risk of getting seriously injured or dying in a shooting and increase your chances of survival. My entire family has them and no one even knows they are protective backpacks. We also sell the inserts you can put into your favorite backpack and turn it into a bulletproof one."
Michael Kenny, spokesman for the Toms River Regional Schools said, "Superior Protection Professionals owner, local resident, and retired Toms River police officer- along with his son, Kelly Conklin Jr., vice president, have made an impactful gesture that will benefit our students, providing them specialty backpacks which will serve them well on their educational journey. We sincerely thank the Conklins and SPP for turning their commitment to our community into action, and for providing tangible resources to our students."
Conklin goes on to say, "This isn't an easy topic to discuss by any means. It's an unfortunate fact that there are evil people with guns in this world looking to cause harm to good people. I love the fact that we can sell these all over the country and make a difference. People can protect themselves, and their loved ones, and we play a part in that. That's the foundation of our company, keeping people safe,and now we can do it even when our guards aren't around."
He also mentioned that there is funding and grants for schools to buy these and can help out with that if you contact him.

Teenager and step-parents sentenced over Logan Mwangi’s murder
A teenager who took part in the ferocious murder with his step-parents of his five-year-old stepbrother has been named for the first time as he was detained for life for murder.
Craig Mulligan, 14, was sentenced to a minimum of 15 years’ detention for killing Logan Mwangi having previously expressed a desire to kill him.
Mulligan carried out the fatal assault on Logan with his stepfather John Cole, 40, in the flat where they lived in Lower Llansantffraid, Sarn, while his stepmother and the youngster’s biological mother Angharad Williamson, 31, stood by and “did nothing”.
Cole was told by a judge at Cardiff Crown Court that he would spend at least 29 years behind bars while Williamson would serve a minimum of 28 years’ custody.
A social services investigation is now under way into the circumstances of Logan’s death as Mulligan had only returned to the care of Cole just five days before the murder.
The trio were convicted of killing the little boy in Sarn, Bridgend, South Wales, in April, following a trial at Cardiff Crown Court.
Passing sentence, Mrs Justice Jefford said: “You are responsible for Logan’s death and all the anguish that has followed from it.
“Because he was killed in his own home and by his own family, it is not possible to be sure exactly what happened to him but what is very clear is that shortly before his death, this little boy – three feet and five inches in height and weighing only three stone and one pound – was subjected to a brutal attack.”
The judge described the injuries Logan had suffered and said they were the “sort of injuries seen in abused children”.
“The inflicting of these injuries on a small, defenceless five-year-old is nothing short of horrifying.”
The judge said Williamson had tried to shift the blame onto others and added: “You had the opportunity to protect your son from further injury and you did nothing.
“What happened to Logan must have involved appalling mental and physical suffering.
“It is impossible to imagine the terror and anguish of a five-year-old child as these horrific injuries were inflicted on him by those he regarded as family and with the complicity of his mother.
“In a final act of callousness, all three of you agreed to try to cover up Logan’s death as an accident.
“It is impossible not to draw the inference that you regarded disposing of Logan’s body as akin to disposing of rubbish.”
Both Williamson and Mulligan were convicted of a further charge of perverting the course of justice – an offence Cole had admitted before trial.
Logan, a previously “smiling, cheerful little boy”, was discovered in the River Ogmore in Pandy Park on the morning of July 31 2021.
Police found him partially submerged, wearing dinosaur pyjama bottoms and a Spider-Man top just 250 metres from his home.
The youngster had suffered 56 external cuts and bruises, and “catastrophic” internal injuries, which were likened to a high-speed road accident.
In the months and weeks leading up to his death, Logan had been “dehumanised” by his family, prosecutors said.
Logan’s stammer is said to have worsened, becoming particularly bad around Cole.
He wet himself more frequently and began self-harming.
Friends of the couple said Cole told them he did not like Logan, and others said his attitude changed after becoming obsessed with the idea that Williamson had cheated with Logan’s father Ben Mwangi.
After Williamson gave birth to his own child, Cole was reluctant to let Logan see the baby and later claimed the boy had tried to smother the infant.
Medics made a safeguarding referral to the police after Logan suffered a broken arm in August 2020.
By March, due to concerns over Cole’s behaviour, Logan and his younger sibling had been assigned their own social worker.
In June, a month before Logan died, the family were removed from the child protection register, meaning it was believed there was no longer a risk of significant harm.
A foster family whom Mulligan stayed with claimed to have heard him say he wanted to kill Logan.
A support worker also heard Mulligan singing: “I love kids, I f****** love kids, I love to punch kids in the head, it’s orgasmic.”
On July 20, Logan tested positive for Covid-19 and he was shut in his bedroom with a baby gate barring him from leaving.
Caroline Rees QC, prosecuting, said: “He had been kept like a prisoner in his small bedroom in the flat you saw, a room likened by Williamson as a dungeon.”
A child practice review into Logan’s death has been launched by the Cwm Taf Morgannwg Safeguarding Board.
Mark Shephard, chief executive of Bridgend County Borough Council, said: “We are awaiting the review’s findings, and together with our partners we will implement any recommendations that it may contain to ensure that we can provide the best, most effective services possible for the local community.”
Tracey Holdsworth, from NSPCC Cymru, said: “It is vital that the child safeguarding practice review leaves no stone unturned in establishing exactly what took place before Logan died and whether more could have been done to protect him by the agencies involved with his family.”

(The Hill) – Mississippi House Speaker Philip Gunn (R) told reporters Wednesday it is his “personal belief” that if a 12-year-old girl is a victim of incest she should still be made to carry a resulting pregnancy to term.
“I believe that life begins at conception and every life is valuable. Those are my personal beliefs,” Gunn said.
A reporter then asked, “So that 12-year-old child molested by her father or uncle should carry that child to term?” to which Gunn replied, “That is my personal belief.”
A challenge to a Mississippi law banning abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy made its way to the Supreme Court, where it was upheld in a decision that overturned the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling that guaranteed the right to abortion.
A separate state law passed in 2007 bans abortions outright if Roe were overturned, with exceptions for rape and instances when the mothers life is at risk. The 15-week law does not include a rape exception, and neither law makes exceptions for incest.
The Mississippi Free Press reports that several GOP lawmakers want the rape exception eliminated from the trigger ban, which would mean abortions would only be allowed to save the life of the mother.
Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which challenged the 15-week ban, filed a lawsuit on Monday seeking to prevent Mississippi from activating its more expansive trigger ban.
In its lawsuit, the group argues that abortions are still protected in Mississippi by the state’s own constitution through a 1998 decision by the Mississippi Supreme Court.
The trigger ban was certified by Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch Monday. Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves (R) declared June “Sanctity of Life Month” on Wednesday in celebration of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade.
Mississippi currently has the nation’s highest infant and fetal mortality rates, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as the lowest life expectancy in the country. | https://www.nbc4i.com/news/national/mississippi-house-speaker-says-12-year-old-incest-victims-should-continue-pregnancies-to-term/ | 2022-06-30T18:14:40Z | https://www.nbc4i.com/news/national/mississippi-house-speaker-says-12-year-old-incest-victims-should-continue-pregnancies-to-term/ | true | 29 |

HOUSTON (CW39) If you plan on heading to an airport this 4th of July weekend, you may be out of luck. Cancellations and delays are up higher than the airlines have seen in months. And with shortages in staff, it’s leading to a domino effect that could impact your travel plans.
That’s not the only business being interrupted. The fight over Spirit Airlines is getting hotter and hotter.
CW39’s Sharron Melton touches base with Business Correspondent Jane King, in New York, at the NASDAQ, with more on these issues. | https://cw39.com/cw39/brace-yourself-4th-of-july-weekend-expected-to-be-filled-with-travel-delays-and-cancellations/ | 2022-06-30T18:20:55Z | https://cw39.com/cw39/brace-yourself-4th-of-july-weekend-expected-to-be-filled-with-travel-delays-and-cancellations/ | false | null |

A man named Asaph had a problem Christians have sometimes. We look at the world around us and it seems like the wicked have it better than those whose hope and trust is in Jesus Christ alone. Psalm 73 is Aspah’s recounting of his thinking.
He starts with his conclusion, “Truly God is good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart.”
Then he tells us his problem,
“But as for me, my feet had nearly slipped.”
Why?
“I was envious of the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. For they have no pangs until death; their bodies are fat and sleek. They are not in trouble as others are; they are not stricken like the rest of mankind.”
Their sin takes many forms:
“Therefore pride is their necklace; violence covers them as a garment. Their eyes swell out through fatness; their hearts overflow with follies. They scoff and speak with malice; loftily they threaten oppression.
People are also reading…
“They set their mouths against the heavens, and their tongue struts through the earth. And they say, ‘How can God know? Is there knowledge in the Most High?’”
Asaph summarizes this way: “Behold, these are the wicked; always at ease, they increase in riches.”
He wondered whether it is worth it to trust and love the Lord: “All in vain have I kept my heart clean and washed my hands in innocence. For all the day long I have been stricken and rebuked every morning.”
Then Asaph checks himself before he speaks: “If I had said, ‘I will speak thus,’ I would have betrayed the generation of your (God’s) children, but when I thought how to understand this, it seemed to me a wearisome task ...”
Asaph then recounts what happened that completely changed his thinking: ”... until I went into the sanctuary of God.”
Asaph sought the Lord’s presence through His Word and prayer, and as he communed with God, he discovered what he was missing. He was only considering how things appeared, but God revealed to him the big picture.
God showed Asaph how it would go with the wicked at death.
”Then I discerned their (the wicked’s) end.”
All the rest of the Psalm is a prayer to the Lord.
“Truly you set them in slippery places; you make them fall to ruin. How they are destroyed in a moment, swept away utterly by terrors! Like a dream when one awakes, O Lord, when you rouse yourself, you despise them as phantoms.”
Asaph then confesses how wrong he had been. “When my soul was embittered, when I was pricked in heart, I was brutish and ignorant; I was like a beast toward you.”
In thankfulness the psalmist confesses how good God is to him: “Nevertheless, I am continually with you; you hold my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward (when I die) you will receive me to glory. Whom have I in heaven but you? And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.”
Finally, Asaph summarizes the truth about the unbeliever and the believer.
“For behold, those who are far from you shall perish; you put an end to everyone who is unfaithful to you. But for me it is good to be near God; I have made the Lord God my refuge, that I might tell of all your works.”
Believer in Jesus Christ, we have absolutely no reason to envy any unbeliever, no matter what they have or what they may get away with. We have the Lord God as our refuge. They do not. That is the heart of it.
This is why we must tell them of the wonderful works of God, especially of Christ and his work on the cross for sinners.
For a similar Psalm read Psalm 37, and for a brief description of how God describes the righteous and the wicked read Psalm 1.

When you read a sentence like this one, your past experience tells you that it Is written by a thinking, feeling human. And, in this case, there is indeed a human typing these words: (Hi, there!) But these days, some sentences that appear remarkably humanlike are actually generated by artificial intelligence systems trained on massive amounts of human text.
People are so accustomed to assuming that fluent language comes from a thinking, feeling human that evidence to the contrary can be difficult to wrap your head around. How are people likely to navigate this relatively uncharted territory? Because of a persistent tendency to associate fluent expression with fluent thought, it is natural – but potentially misleading – to think that if an AI model can express itself fluently, that means it thinks and feels just like humans do.
Thus, it is perhaps unsurprising that a former Google engineer recently claimed that Google’s artificial intelligence system LaMDA has a sense of self because it can eloquently generate text about its purported feelings. This event and the subsequent media coverage led to a number of rightly sceptical articles and posts about the claim that computational models of human language are sentient, meaning capable of thinking and feeling and experiencing.
The question of what it would mean for an artificial intelligence model to be sentient is complicated (see, for instance, our colleague’s take) and our goal here is not to settle it. But as language researchers, we can use our work in cognitive science and linguistics to explain why it is all too easy for humans to fall into the cognitive trap of thinking that an entity that can use the language fluently is sentient, conscious or intelligent.
Humanlike language
Text generated by models like Google’s LaMDA can be hard to distinguish from text written by humans. This impressive achievement is a result of a decadeslong program to build models that generate grammatical, meaningful language.
Early versions dating back to at least the 1950s, known as n-gram models, simply counted up occurrences of specific phrases and used them to guess what words were likely to occur in particular contexts. For instance, it is easy to know that “peanut butter and jelly” is a more likely phrase than “peanut butter and pineapples”. If you have enough English text, you will see the phrase “peanut butter and jelly” again and again but might never see the phrase “peanut butter and pineapples”.
Today’s models, sets of data and rules that approximate human language, differ from these early attempts in several important ways. First, they are trained on essentially the entire internet. Second, they can learn relationships between words that are far apart, not just words that are neighbours.
Third, they are tuned by a huge number of internal “knobs” – so many that it is hard for even the engineers who design them to understand why they generate one sequence of words rather than another.
The models’ task, however, remains the same as in the 1950s: determine which word is likely to come next. Today, they are so good at this task that almost all sentences they generate seem fluid and grammatical.
Peanut butter...?
We asked a large language model, GPT-3, to complete the sentence “Peanut butter and pineapples___”. It said: “Peanut butter and pineapples are a great combination. The sweet and savory flavors of peanut butter and pineapple complement each other perfectly.”
If a person said this, one might infer that they had tried peanut butter and pineapple together, formed an opinion and shared it with the reader.
But how did the language model come up with this paragraph? By generating a word that fit the context we provided. And then another one. And then another one. The model never saw, touched or tasted pineapples – it just processed all the texts on the internet that mention them. And yet reading this paragraph can lead the human mind – even that of a Google engineer – to imagine the language model as an intelligent being that can reason about peanut butter and pineapple dishes.
Large artificial intelligence language models can engage in fluent conversation. However, they have no overall message to communicate, so their phrases often follow common literary tropes, extracted from the texts they were trained on.
For instance, if prompted with the topic “the nature of love”, the model might generate sentences about believing that love conquers all. The human brain primes the viewer to interpret these words as the model’s opinion on the topic, but they are simply a plausible sequence of words.
The human brain is hardwired to infer intentions behind words. Every time you engage in conversation, your mind automatically constructs a mental model of your conversation partner. You then use the words they say to fill in the model with that person’s goals, feelings and beliefs.
The process of jumping from words to the mental model is seamless, getting triggered every time you receive a fully-fledged sentence. This cognitive process saves you a lot of time and effort in everyday life, greatly facilitating your social interactions.
However, in the case of artificial intelligence systems, it misfires – building a mental model out of thin air.
A little more probing can reveal the severity of this misfire. Consider the following prompt: “Peanut butter and feathers taste great together because___”. The language model continued: “Peanut butter and feathers taste great together because they both have a nutty flavour. Peanut butter is also smooth and creamy, which helps to offset the feather’s texture.”
The text, in this case, is as fluent as our example with pineapples, but this time the model is saying something decidedly less sensible. One begins to suspect that the language model has never actually tried peanut butter and feathers.
Cognitive bias
A sad irony is that the same cognitive bias that makes people ascribe humanity to the language model can cause them to treat actual humans in inhumane ways. Sociocultural linguistics – the study of language in its social and cultural context – shows that assuming an overly tight link between fluent expression and fluent thinking can lead to bias against people who speak differently.
For instance, people with a foreign accent are often perceived as less intelligent and are less likely to get the jobs they are qualified for. Similar biases exist against speakers of dialects that are not considered prestigious, such as Southern English in the US, against deaf people using sign languages and against people with speech impediments such as stuttering.
These biases are deeply harmful, often lead to racist and sexist assumptions and have been shown again and again to be unfounded.
Will artificial intelligence ever become sentient? This question requires deep consideration, and indeed philosophers have pondered it for decades. What researchers have determined, however, is that you cannot simply trust a language model when it tells you how it feels. Words can be misleading, and it is all too easy to mistake fluent speech for fluent thought.

The firm to double down on its core strategy with Fund IV while launching its first opportunity fund
SALT LAKE CITY and SAN FRANCISCO, June 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Peterson Ventures, a pre-Series A venture firm that invests across SaaS and digital commerce announced today that it has raised over $140M in new capital for its Fund IV and Opportunity Fund I. Like its prior core funds, Peterson Ventures' Fund IV will invest up to ~$2.5M into Seed and Pre-seed stage startups. The Opportunity Fund I will enable the firm to invest follow-on checks at the growth stage in breakout portfolio companies from its core funds. With the launch of these two new funds, Peterson Ventures now has over $550M in assets under management.
Peterson Ventures was founded in 2012 and is the ten-year-old venture arm of the Peterson Partners platform, an independent investment management firm with over $1.8B assets under management, originally founded by Joel Peterson. Ben Capell, Managing Director at Peterson Ventures, joined the firm 12 years ago and helped to launch the firm's venture investing activities, and was joined by fellow partner, Ilana Stern, 3 years ago. Peterson Ventures has invested in six unicorns and had 2 IPO's in the last ten years, including Allbirds, Ethos, and Lucid Software.
"Being able to partner and collaborate with so many founders in the way that we do has been hugely satisfying," said Ben Capell, Managing Director at Peterson Ventures "We've invested in nearly 100 founders so far and we look forward to growing not only our portfolio but our team as well. I love the work we do and am honored to keep it going with the support of some amazing Limited Partners."
Peterson Ventures' investments are sourced from a three-pronged approach: 1) the firm's strong roots in the Utah tech hub, a state which saw $26B in transaction value generated in 2020; 2) access to the talent and entrepreneurial ecosystem at Stanford's GSB MBA program, where the firm's partners have a deep network from decades of teaching and investing in students as well as alumni; and 3) an elite network of founder alumni referring companies to Peterson Ventures. This combination affords Peterson Ventures early access to key deals.
"Being part of the Peterson Ventures team has been incredibly fulfilling," said Ilana Stern, General Partner at Peterson Ventures. "I love working one-on-one with our founders to leverage my operating experience as a former founder and CEO. I have been in their shoes and know how important and impactful it can be to have investors with you every step of the way, especially through the uncertainty of finding product-market fit and early scaling."
With nearly 100 investments, Peterson Ventures looks at SaaS and Digital Commerce startups with a specific lens. With SaaS, the firm pursues a vertical strategy, with investments across healthcare, future of work and e-commerce enablement. With digital commerce investments, the firm looks for entrepreneurs who are disrupting distribution, bypassing the middleman to get more direct access to customers and to provide higher quality products at better value to the end consumer. Its DTC investments focus on historically low NPS industries and experiences spanning e-commerce, healthcare, fintech, and consumer-enabled marketplaces.
"We love Peterson Ventures. They were the cornerstone investor in our first financing when we graduated from Stanford GSB with a vision and a powerpoint deck," said Peter Colis, Co-founder and CEO of Ethos Life. "It was harder to raise our pre-Seed than any subsequent round, and we are so grateful they took a bet on us day one and have been in our corner ever since. Ben and the Peterson Ventures team are best in class at the earliest stages."
The Peterson Ventures team is growing and Taylor Jones, a former Peterson Ventures portfolio founder, joined as Principal in August 2021. Prior to joining Peterson Ventures, Taylor was the co-founder and COO at Blue Matador, a cloud infrastructure monitoring startup, and previously worked in go-to-market and strategy roles at Google and American Express. Taylor holds an MBA from Harvard Business School and a B.S. from Brigham Young University. Along with Ilana, Taylor is now the second portfolio founder to join Peterson Ventures full-time. The firm plans to continue growing its team with hires in both its SLC and SF locations.

Therap's team made the process of transition very smooth! We have built a strong relationship with the members of the Therap team and have implemented (successfully) several of the applications. We don't know why we didn't do it sooner!" - Communications and Marketing Manager

A woman’s reaction to a pianist playing his rendition of “WAP” for Bourbon Street-goers has earned her the “Karen” moniker online.
“When you tip the piano player to play WAP and Karen realizes what the song is about,” the voiceover in the video says.
An arrow in the video points to a woman with short, blonde hair sitting at a table in front of the piano player. She seems to become appalled while listening to the rendition and mouths “this is awful” to her acquaintances who are seated next to her. She is being filmed from afar, presumably by a person at a nearby table.
The people who are accompanying her, however, seem to laugh at both the song and her reaction to it.
@old_dirty_shirt WAP reaction #frenchquarter #NOLA #bourbonstreet #neworleans #wap #wapchallenge ♬ original sound – Joe aka: MrCia
The video was posted by Joe (@old_dirty_shirt) and takes place on Bourbon Street in New Orleans. The video was viewed 800,000 times, with many pointing out that the woman should have known what to expect as she was on Bourbon Street, which is known for its lively atmosphere.
“Ma’am you’re on bourbon street what you thought you was getting?This lil light of mine?!?” one person quipped.
“It’s the French Quarter, not a Southern Baptist convention,” another argued.
“She’s in a bar. On bourbon st ……,” a third concurred.
Joe eventually posted the full video with the text overlay: “I almost felt bad getting him to do this.”
While the woman laughs at the beginning of this video, her reaction shifts as the video progresses.
Some viewers in the comments section pointed out how the woman was enjoying the song before noticing the lyrics.
“Haaaaaaaa! She was loving it at first,” one said.
Putting the woman’s reaction aside, viewers in the comments section praised the pianist with the lyrics to the Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion song.
“The fact that the piano player doesn’t even need to look at the lyrics,” a viewer pointed out.
“He really been waiting for this moment bc he knew every single word,” another said.
The Daily Dot reached out to Joe via TikTok comment. | https://www.dailydot.com/irl/wap-karen/ | 2022-06-30T18:39:10Z | https://www.dailydot.com/irl/wap-karen/ | true | 1 |
NEW YORK (AP) — Mary J. Blige’s 2022 is going pretty well. Her new album landed in the top 10 of Billboard’s R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, and she was featured at the Super Bowl halftime show. Now she’s been tapped for a concert like no other.
Blige will host a one-night-only live performance to celebrate her life and music that will be available to stream exclusively on Apple Music in over 165 countries. The concert is set for July 27 at 10 p.m. EDT/7 p.m. PDT.
“The last year of my career in particular has been an exciting ride,” Blige said in a statement. ”It feels amazing to take this opportunity to celebrate, reflect and have an intimate night with my fans through this platform Apple Music is providing me.”
Blige’s Apple Music Live concert will be held at New York City’s United Palace Theatre, in Manhattan’s Washington Heights neighborhood. Fans in the greater New York region have the opportunity to register for free for a chance to be in the room when it happens.
The concert coincides with the 30th anniversary of her acclaimed debut album “What’s the 411,” and Apple Music Hits will devote the entire day to Blige, including exclusive programming, music, and interviews showcasing key moments from her career.
“What’s the 411?” — with the songs “You Remind Me” and cover version of Rufus and Chaka Khan’s “Sweet Thing” — has been named among the 500 greatest albums of all time by Rolling Stone, reaching No. 271. The album is certified three times platinum, with over 3 million copies sold.
The digital concert series had its inaugural performance in May with Harry Styles spearheading the campaign, followed by a live performance by Lil Durk in June.
Blige’s career includes eight multi-platinum albums, nine Grammy Awards, two Academy Award nominations, two Golden Globe nominations and a SAG nomination. Her latest album is “Good Morning Gorgeous” and she was seen this year on the small screen in ”Power Book II: Ghost.”

WASHINGTON — Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, 51, officially made history Thursday as the first Black woman on the Supreme Court.
She replaces 83-year-old Justice Stephen Breyer as the court wraps up its last rulings of the term.
With Jackson, there will be four women on the Supreme Court for the next term, a first that has been championed by advocates pushing for more diversity at the top of the nation's judiciary system.
During her swearing-in ceremony, Jackson took a constitutional oath administered by Chief Justice John Roberts and a judicial oath administered by Breyer.
Breyer, who served for 28 years on the court, gave notice of his retirement Wednesday in a letter to President Joe Biden.
"It has been my great honor to participate as a judge in the effort to maintain our Constitution and the Rule of Law," Breyer wrote.
Jackson, nominated by President Joe Biden, was confirmed 53-47 by the Senate in April.
During the four-day Senate confirmation hearings, Jackson spoke of her parents’ struggles through racial segregation and said her “path was clearer” than theirs as a Black American after the enactment of civil rights laws.
Jackson attended Harvard University, served as a public defender, worked at a private law firm and was appointed as a member of the U.S. Sentencing Commission.
And she is not a completely fresh face to the Supreme Court. Jackson clerked for Breyer, who she will replace, after she graduated from Harvard in 1996.
Jackson served eight years as a federal trial court judge, and was appointed by President Biden in June 2021 to a seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for D.C.
She will be the first Supreme Court justice since Thurgood Marshall to have experience as a public defender, a quality analysts say will likely color her opinions with the court.
The Supreme Court's conservative slant won't be changed as Jackson enters the high court. She is replacing a liberal judge who in his final term often found himself at the losing end of major decisions.
In the biggest case of this term, the court ruled 5-4 to strike down Roe v. Wade, which guaranteed the right to abortion in the U.S. | https://www.cbs19.tv/article/news/nation-world/judge-ketanji-brown-jackson/507-c23fd004-f4d7-4ae3-8472-21226f1a4bd3 | 2022-06-30T18:45:01Z | https://www.cbs19.tv/article/news/nation-world/judge-ketanji-brown-jackson/507-c23fd004-f4d7-4ae3-8472-21226f1a4bd3 | false | 15 |
Three kids where?!
Beyonce broke the Internet when she announced her single Break My Soul and now she’s breaking the Internet with her Renaissance album cover. The Queen took to social media to drop the bodacious cover art that depicts the entertainer perched atop a glass horse wearing a sexy silver monokini by Nusi Quero styled by Marni, that showcases her bodacious figure. The cover image was captured by photographer Carlijn Jacobs. And while Bey typically shares updates without captions, she gave us a glimpse at what we can expect from the disc, in a detailed status that now has over one million likes.
“Creating this album allowed me a place to dream and to find escape during a scary time for the world. It allowed me to feel free and adventurous in a time when little else was moving,” she wrote. “My intention was to create a safe place, a place without judgment. A place to be free of perfectionism and overthinking. A place to scream, release, feel freedom. It was a beautiful journey of exploration. I hope you find joy in this music. I hope it inspires you to release the wiggle. Ha! And to feel as unique, strong, and sexy as you are.”
The Beyhive is in a frenzy following the unexpected release, quickly noting her return to Twitter.
According to Twitter user Hermiden. “Beyoncé channels Lady Godiva, The Noblewoman of the Renaissance era. She rode on a horse naked as a protest to how heavily taxed the citizens were, the protest led to the reduction of the crippling taxes on the citizens. She is known for her generosity.”
Break My Soul debuted in the top 10 of Billboard’s R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart, becoming the first song to debut in the top 10 in 26 years. Renaissance drops on July 29.

Overland Trail Museum’s annual Heritage Festival is moving to Pioneer Park this year, but you can still count on many of the same fun activities, as well as a few new ones.
Part of the four-day Heritage on the Plains event, the Sunday, July 3, festival will kick off at 10 a.m. with Church in the Park hosted by Sterling Foursquare Church and First Baptist Church at the big pavilion. Immediately following church at approximately 11 a.m. will be an opening ceremony with a flag raising and National Anthem at the softball fields.
“We’re really excited about our opening ceremony because our own Zach Pomeroy has been working on his Abe Lincoln interpretation and he’s going to be reciting the Gettysburg Address, which will be a really neat way to kick off our part of the event,” said museum curator Kay Rich.
Immediately following the opening ceremony there will be a performance by dance group Boots in Motion at the big pavilion.
The highlight of the day will be when the Colorado Vintage Base Ball Association’s Star Base-Ball Club of Colorado Territory taking on the High Plains Hitters, a group of individuals from Sterling community who enjoy playing baseball. First pitch for the 1860s style baseball game is set for noon.
Thanks to a generous sponsorship from First FarmBank there is no cost to attend the baseball game. In fact all of the day’s activities are free, though you will need to bring some money if you plan to enjoy lunch served Sterling Lions Club and Merino Volunteer Fire Department from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Afternoon activities will include live musical entertainment by the Atomic Drifters, a rockabilly, country rock and 50s rock band, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the big pavilion. The band is popular in Sterling, having performed at July Jamz and past Heritage Festivals.
“People absolutely love them and they’re going to be a lot of fun,” Rich said.
In addition to the live music, Mike’s Train Company, sponsored by a donation from Wal-Mart, will be providing rides all afternoon throughout the park for children and adults on their model of a late 1800s steam engine train. Plus, the Colorado Flatlanders Car Club will be there, giving a preview of their 30th annual Rod Run, which will be held July 8-10, at Pioneer Park.
Other activities will include Blacksmith Sam, who will be giving demonstrations throughout the day in his mobile blacksmithing trailer, carnival games and face painting, “a lot of the activities that we have when we have Heritage Festival here at the museum,” Rich said.
All activities run until 4 p.m.
If you plan on attending the festival, please be aware the main roads inside of the park will be closed and you won’t be able to actually drive into the park due to the train running and people walking around the park. Rich said available parking areas will be clearly marked.
The Heritage Festival is sponsored by the City of Sterling, Logan County Commissioners, Logan County Lodging Tax Board, First FarmBank and Wal-Mart.
Rounding out the four-day celebration will be the annual Fourth of July Fireworks Jam presented by the City of Sterling and Mega Music on Monday starting at 5 p.m. in the Home Depot parking lot. Musical entertainment will be provided by ZZ Top tribute band El Loco Fandango. There will also be an appearance by Wild Bill, a free bounce house, horse and wagon rides, giveaways and fireworks starting at dusk in Pioneer Park.
If you aren’t able to watch the fireworks Monday, North Sterling Boat Club will be putting on its fireworks display Saturday evening at North Sterling State Park.
“I think it’s going to be a great weekend. We’re excited, it’s been kind of fun to partner with other groups to do this and I think it’s giving us a great chance to show off what this community has to offer. People can enjoy downtown, the beautiful Logan County Courthouse Square on Friday night and Saturday (for July Jamz and the Art of BBQ Cook-Off) and then Pioneer Park is such a premier park, it’s so beautiful and even if it’s a really hot July day there is tons of shade, so I think it’s a great opportunity to show off our community,” Rich said. | https://www.journal-advocate.com/2022/06/30/overland-trail-museums-heritage-festival-has-new-location-same-fun-activities/ | 2022-06-30T18:48:46Z | https://www.journal-advocate.com/2022/06/30/overland-trail-museums-heritage-festival-has-new-location-same-fun-activities/ | false | 2 |

episode 4 of Ms Marvel was released last Wednesday (29), and brought Kamala on a trip to Pakistan.
Titled “Red Vision”, we see Kamala and her mother heading to Pakistan in the episode to find out more about the past and history of the mysterious bracelet.
In the episode, we get to know more about the Red Daggers and the whole construction of the Underground plan.
However, the main point of the episode, which in itself did not have an exceptional quality with several moments like Os Trapalhões, was its ending.
Many theories have already surfaced on the internet, including a possible time travel one. And it really happened.
We stopped at the train station, so mentioned in the previous episode and at the beginning of the construction of episode 4. Kamala lost and bewildered by the situation that she had just been through, shows a good hook for the next one.
We can see Kamala’s great-grandmother helping her own great-granddaughter, which could have a nice story in the next 40 minutes.
Watch the promo for the episode below:
The cast of Ms Marvel features Iman Vellani as Kamala Khan/Ms. Marvel; Aramis Knight as Kareem/Red Dagger; Saagar Shaikh as Aamir Khan; Rish Shah as Kamran; Mohan Kapur as Yusuf Khan, and others.
In addition, the series prepares a future in the Marvel Universe, with the union between Kamala and Captain Marvel (Brie Larson) in 2023’s The Marvels.
Finally, watch episode 4 of the Ms Marvel series now on Disney Plus.

Controversial YouTube personality and self-help author Jordan Peterson signed a podcasting deal with The Daily Wire, the company announced Thursday.
Peterson, the Canadian clinical psychologist, will appear on DailyWire+, a subscription-based streaming service that will offer podcasts and video-on-demand, the conservative news site co-founded by Ben Shapiro said.
The announcement comes a day after Peterson, a critic of “cancel culture,” was reportedly suspended by Twitter.
Dave Rubin, a right-leaning commentator, said that Peterson was booted off the platform Wednesday for tweeting that the doctor who removed transgender actor Elliot Page’s breasts was a “criminal physician.”
The Post has sought comment from Twitter.
Peterson said he gravitated toward Daily Wire due to the state of the current media landscape.
“Obviously, there’s a huge shift in media technology from whatever was the legacy media in print, video, entertainment, and in the digital world, and clearly DailyWire+ is at the forefront of that,” said Peterson.
“Partnering with a company that shares my own values for excellence and entrepreneurial vision is the natural next step for me. And, it’s time for a new adventure.”
Peterson will record twice-weekly podcasts as well as offer exclusive bonus content for subscribers, according to Forbes.
As part of the arrangement, the archives of Peterson’s existing podcast as well as his videos will also be housed at DailyWire+.
DailyWire+, which was launched this week, will also offer exclusive original films as well as family and children entertainment.
It’s a significant expansion for The Daily Wire and Shapiro, a former Breitbart reporter.
Peterson is considered one of the more popular intellectual voices on the political right.
His YouTube channel, which boasts more than 5.16 million subscribers, includes videos of his lectures in which he criticizes political correctness.
Some of his lectures and debates have generated as many as 40 million views on YouTube, earning him a mass following.
Peterson has angered liberals by stating that white privilege is a “Marxist lie” and that the idea that women were oppressed throughout history “is an appalling theory.”
He has also spoken out against identity politics and enforced use of gender pronouns. | https://nypost.com/2022/06/30/daily-wire-signs-jordan-peterson-to-podcast-deal/ | 2022-06-30T18:57:57Z | https://nypost.com/2022/06/30/daily-wire-signs-jordan-peterson-to-podcast-deal/ | false | 1 |

Market Staring Down The Abyss Of Contraction
Two days ago Nomura's Charlie McElligott laid out the market's pernicious recession/non-recession feedback loop as well as the conditions tracked by traders to gauge if the "all-clear" has arrived, to wit:
A flush down to 3300-3400 is the perceived “all-clear” on the valuation case for Equities, with the whole world seemingly bid “out loud” down there for size, which means it either, i) it doesn’t happen and we don’t trade low enough, or conversely, or ii) we do trade down there, but the supposed size demand doesn’t materialize, and we get the puke through 3k.
Today, McElligott doubles down with some "gory details" on how the quad diagram shows the economy careening into contraction (more below) starting with European inflation which continues its escalation, perversely increasing the likelihood of an “accident” there against a still-toiling ECB who risks a “catch-up” hiking spasm into a hard recession—and accordingly EUR Credit markets are staring into the abyss, with Xover earlier printing through 600bps for the first time since “peak COVID” stress
Well, as we have been saying for months, Charlie notes that the market “gets the joke” on Central Banks being incapable of address “supply side” issues — so they pull the only lever they have on the “demand” side, hence “Recession” gap-risk repricing hard and fast.
And this, according to Elligott, is the brutal truth (something we have been saying since 2020):
in the absence of being able to print oil and gas, refinery capacity, very large crude carriers (VLCCs), fertilizers, grains, rare earth metals for EVs etc…Central Banks are really left with no choice but to drive economies into recession in order to curtail “demand” -pressure on prices, even though they’re a much smaller attributing factor to inflation.
Indeed, with “Demand” the only “lever” they can pull here, since governments (particularly due to their ‘pie-in-the-sky’ aspirational climate goals, but without viable energy transition alternatives in the meantime) and industry (burned in the past from overzealous cash-burning overbuilding and overcapacity, into a future state where western governments are actively seeking to erase them) are unable to come to terms on addressing “supply” side dynamics. So it is a “pick your poison” trade:
Stomp inflation from the “demand” side while global economies still show a remaining semblance of “juice,” but cause a recession and loss of employment—because the alternative case of “unanchored” forward inflation is being painted as an even uglier long-term economic outcome.
As an aside, Biden "punishing" Putin for unleashing global commodity hyperinflation by sending the US economy into a recession and starting a harrowing bear market and the worst tech crash since Lehman is so... 2022. As for a recession with mass layoffs being uglier than inflation, well... we give Biden's handlers a few more days before they completely change their mind on this once the violent protests break out.
This slide into recession is manifesting itself across recent destruction in Cyclicals, Commods and Inflation Breakevens (which have collapsed to 2018 levels), along with resumption of widening in Corp Credit despite the Equities bounce off the cycle lows over the past 2 weeks
To this point, Nomura's Economics team “upped the ante” regarding the risk of unanchored inflation and again, increases the risk of Fed tightening induced “accident” (in a note titled "The Fed’s Inflation Expectations Angst Grows" available to pro subscribers).
And accordingly, the STIRs market is anticipating this “breakage” due to the final throes of this “tightening into a Contraction” dynamic then leading to a 4Q22 recession and 2023 policy reversal: EDZ2EDZ3 (Dec22-Dec23) now shows 53.5bps of CUTS priced in the US for next year, where even Z2H3 (Dec22-Mar23, aka Q1 2023 ) shows a -5bps inversion as of today...
... and the H3M3 (Mar23-Jun23) inversion goes to -15.5bps; while H3H4 (Mar23-Mar24) extends to -60bps vs -44.5bps Tuesday
Looking at markets, equities risk-premia continues to trade this “recession” dynamic as currently expressed by “Momentum,” “Defensive Value,” “Low Risk,” “Quality” and “Dividends” leadership, versus renewed moves lower this week in the prior YTD “losers” of “High Short Interest,” “Leverage,” “Hedge Fund Crowding” and “ISM Manufacturing PMI” (weak balance sheet / high realized vol / unprofitable / low quality / growth sensitive -stuff).
This also matches the current economic quadrant trajectory (see above) which shows us “careening into Contraction” from what is an already embedded “Slowdown” phase...
... which then too corresponds with historical precedent for the next Yield Curve phase-shift into a likely “Bull-Flattener.”
Meanwhile, as discussed earlier this week, equities also now too feeling that “next shoe to drop” of the long-overdue “negative earnings revisions” transition, which is finally kicking-off with a bang as the Street suddenly spasms into taking down estimates in a number of key sectors / industries.
Nonetheless from the Vol side, there remains almost no demand for new “Crash” here (hence VVIX sub-90), as with fund exposures so low, clients are more worried about missing the “right tail” (e.g. some sort of “dovish pivot” scenario from the Fed) than “left tail.”
As such, a part of the “extreme flat Skew” dynamic is wingy Calls looking relative to wingy Puts, and that is “skewing Skew” (and Put Skew) to look so incredibly, historically low / flat, despite SPX ATM Vols remaining historically high.
Finally and tactically with Equities, McElligott reminds us that today is the roll of the infamous JPM Put/Spread Collar which is "gonna be fun" - per Nomura index trader Jordan Farkas, the new structure should look like them selling 42k 6/30 4285 Puts to buy 42k 9/30 3000-3575-3875 PS Collar. This will sell a massive 16mm Vega and will buy 4.7B of Delta, but they will structure the trade such that its neutral at time of trade and will shift Delta to MOC | https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/market-starting-down-abyss-contraction | 2022-06-30T19:04:37Z | https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/market-starting-down-abyss-contraction | false | 1 |
WASHINGTON (AP) — Slightly fewer Americans applied for unemployment benefits last week, reflecting a robust job market despite rising job cuts in some sectors of the economy that have cooled in recent months.
Applications for jobless aid for the week ending June 25 ticked down to 231,000, a decline of 2,000 from the previous week, the Labor Department reported Thursday. First-time applications generally represent the number of layoffs.
The four-week average for claims, which evens out some of the week-to-week volatility, rose by 7,250 from the previous week, to 231,750.
The total number of Americans collecting jobless benefits for the week ending June 18 was 1,328,000, down 3,000 from the previous week. That figure has hovered near 50-year lows for months.
Much of the recent job security and wage gains that Americans have enjoyed recently have been gobbled up by inflation levels not seen in four decades.
Earlier in June, the Labor Department reported that consumer prices surged 8.6% last month from a year earlier. The Federal Reserve responded by raising its main borrowing rate — its main tool for fighting rising prices — by three-quarters of a point. That increase is on top of a half-point increase in early May.
The government reported that U.S. employers added 390,000 jobs in May, extending a streak of solid hiring that has bolstered an economy under pressure. Though the job growth in May was healthy, it was the lowest monthly gain in a year and there have been signs that more layoffs could be coming, at least in some sectors.
Jobless claims applications the past few weeks, though still relatively low, have been the highest since the first weeks of 2022 as some highly visible companies have announced job cuts.
The CEO of electric car maker Tesla, Elon Musk, acknowledged that the company was cutting about 10% of its salaried workforce, or 3.5% of its total headcount. Musk has described the electric automaker’s factories in Austin and Berlin as “money furnaces” that were losing billions of dollars because supply chain breakdowns were limiting the number of cars they can produce.
Netflix laid off 150 employees in May and another 300 in June after the streaming entertainment giant reported losing subscribers for the first time in more than a decade.
Online automotive retailer Carvana said last month that it’s letting about 2,500 workers go, roughly 12% of its workforce.
Online real estate broker Redfin, under pressure from a housing market that’s cooled due to higher interest rates, is laying off 8% of its workers. Another real estate company, Compass, is letting go of 450 employees.
Those cuts have extended to companies in the cryptocurrency sector with prices for bitcoin and other digital assets cratering in recent months.
Crypto trading platform Coinbase Global is cutting about 1,100 jobs, about 18% of its global workforce, as part of a restructuring in order to help manage its operating expenses in response to current market conditions. | https://www.centralillinoisproud.com/news/business/slightly-fewer-americans-apply-for-jobless-claims-last-week/ | 2022-06-30T19:05:35Z | https://www.centralillinoisproud.com/news/business/slightly-fewer-americans-apply-for-jobless-claims-last-week/ | true | 110 |
DENVER (AP) — Nazem Kadri will be jubilantly waving to the fans at the parade Thursday through the streets of Denver.
Possibly waving goodbye, too.
Some tough decisions loom for the Colorado Avalanche after dethroning the Tampa Bay Lightning in the Stanley Cup Final.
As the players party and mingle with the fans in the Mile High City to celebrate the franchise’s third Stanley Cup title, there’s this difficult reality: Quite a few of them may not get the opportunity to return and defend the crown. This could be their farewell.
The list of unrestricted free agent players includes big-time contributors such as Kadri, Darcy Kuemper, Andrew Cogliano, Andre Burakovsky, Josh Manson and Valeri Nichushkin. There are also several restricted free agents like Artturi Lehkonen and Nicolas Aube-Kubel.
It will be a tall task for general manager Joe Sakic to bring back everyone.
So they’ll soak up the good times on the parade route — one final memory in what’s been an epic season.
“Surreal,” defenseman Cale Makar said after his team beat the Lightning in Game 6 on Sunday night to secure the title. “I’m not too worried about the sentimental stuff but just the celebrating is the main thing with the boys.”
The core group led the way: Makar, Mikko Rantanen, captain Gabriel Landeskog, Nathan MacKinnon and Erik Johnson. With the exception of Makar, they were around for the dismal 48-point season in 2016-17, when this title seemed like nothing more than a pipedream.
“I didn’t know if I was even going to be in Colorado after that,” the 34-year-old Johnson said. “I sat down with Joe (Sakic) and said, ‘Listen, I want to do this here. I want to get this done in Colorado. Keep me a part of it.’ And we did it. Amazing. So proud of everyone.”
Down the road, there could be two Makars on the ice for the Avalanche. Cale’s younger brother, Taylor, was picked in the seventh round by Colorado in 2021. Taylor, a forward, was on hand to watch his brother not only win the Stanley Cup but earn the Conn Smythe Trophy as the MVP of the postseason. This on top of Cale capturing the Norris Trophy as the league’s top defenseman.
“It’s insane for me to watch,” Taylor said. “He’s the hardest working person I’ve ever known. He’s so dedicated. It’s so funny to see us grow up together, have those sibling fights, battle playing fake Stanley Cup and mini-sticks. To see him finally be able to lift that, I know he’s always wanted that.”
It was a memorable postseason for Kadri, too. There was the controversy against St. Louis. Then he needed thumb surgery after being hurt in the Western Conference Final against Edmonton, only to make it back in time for Game 4 at Tampa, where he scored the overtime winner.
“You work your whole life for this and now it’s here,” Kadri said of winning the Cup. “Incredible feeling.”
SAKIC’S MARK
Sakic is the first in league history to win the Stanley Cup as a captain and later a general manager for the same franchise, according to NHL Stats. This one, though, was much more stressful.
“When you have to sit upstairs and watch the last five minutes of the game, your heart was probably beating more than it was as a player,” said Sakic, the Hall of Fame forward who led the Avalanche to titles in 1996 and 2001.
ALL THE SMALL THINGS
The band blink-182 gave a shoutout to the Avalanche for their Stanley Cup title. Their hit song “All The Small Things” has been adopted by the crowd as fans sing along in the third period.
The Twitter account belonging to “ The Stanley Cup ” even posted the song lyrics, “turn the lights off, carry me home,” after Colorado won.
OUT OF THE BLUE LINE
Led by Makar, the Avalanche received 69 points from their defensemen during their playoff run. That was second-most in a postseason, trailing only the 1985 Edmonton Oilers (77 points).
Colorado’s blueline set franchise records in goals (64) and points (238) during the regular season.
MORE CALE
Makar became the youngest defenseman to earn the Conn Smythe Trophy since Bobby Orr in 1970. Makar finished with eight goals and 21 assists in the postseason.
“I would’ve said a few months ago this guy’s never going to surprise me anymore,” Avalanche coach Jared Bednar said. “But he continued to do that through the playoffs for me.”
RUN FOR THE AGES
The Avalanche went 16-4 on their way to the Cup, including sweeps of Nashville and Edmonton. The only Stanley Cup winner with fewer losses since all rounds went to a best-of-seven format in 1987 was Edmonton, which lost only twice in ’88.
Colorado also broke club marks for wins (56) and points (119) in the regular season.
“If they had a bad game, they got right up the next day ready to be better,” Sakic said.
Avalanche owner Stan Kroenke commended the work of Sakic.
“Joe is awesome,” said Kroenke, who also owns the Super Bowl-champion Los Angeles Rams and whose Colorado Mammoth win the National Lacrosse League title this month. “The hardest thing is to stay good all the time. Of course, the minute I came down here, the players were coming up to me saying, ‘This is amazing. Let’s do it again.’ That’s hard to do.”

July 4th pet safety: What to do if you find a lost pet
After every Fourth of July holiday, animal shelters are flooded with pets that were spooked by fireworks celebrations, and it’s not just pets that end up lost or injured.
"Many animals become so frightened by the noise and commotion of fireworks that they run from otherwise familiar environments and people, and sadly become lost," the American Humane Society says. "They may also suffer devastating or even fatal health effects from the stress."
The flashes and sounds can also cause strays and wild animals to bolt into roadways, which means more animals are struck and injured by vehicles.

"Wildlife rehabilitation centers are often flooded with traumatized, injured and orphaned wild animals after the holiday," the AHS says.
What to do if you find a lost pet or animal

Here are some steps you can take to help if you encounter a lost pet or stray animal, according to the AHS:
- Capture it if you can do so safely: If you see a stray cat or dog, approach the animal slowly and cautiously, speaking in a calm and soft voice as you get closer. Don’t risk getting injured if it is acting aggressively. Food can be a helpful tool in getting a frightened animal to approach you.
- Dogs should be secured on a leash or in a fenced yard. If you don’t have a leash, you can use a belt or a rope in the interim, but they shouldn’t be a permanent solution. Cats should be secured in a carrier or cardboard box with air holes. If you don’t have either, they can stay in a small room of your house or in your car for short time if the car is ventilated and not too hot.
- Call local authorities: If you can’t approach the animal safely or if the animal runs away, call your local animal control center or the non-emergency police department line. Tell them the exact address where you last saw the animal.
- Check for identification: If the pet is wearing an ID tag, try contacting the owner so the pet can be immediately returned. If you can’t reach the owner quickly, consider keeping the pet for a few hours to see if you get a callback. Immediately file a "found" report with your local animal shelter. If you can’t keep the pet, bring it to the shelter.
- If the pet isn’t wearing an ID tag, you can take it to a shelter or call your vet’s office to get it scanned for a microchip. Staff can look up the owner’s contact information if the pet has one. Post a photo of the lost pet on the animal shelter’s online database if it’s an available feature.
- Post fliers and post on social media: Most pets go missing near their homes, so if possible, post "found" pet fliers with pictures and your contact info in the area where you found the animal. Take the fliers to local vet clinics and post on craigslist, Nextdoor and social media sites. | https://www.fox5dc.com/news/july-4th-pet-safety-fireworks-what-to-do-if-you-find-lost-pet | 2022-06-30T19:08:57Z | https://www.fox5dc.com/news/july-4th-pet-safety-fireworks-what-to-do-if-you-find-lost-pet | true | 10 |
Jasprit Bumrah is ready for the challenge of captaining India at short notice, but admits he is throwing himself into "deep water" against a rampant England side.
The tourists had been hoping that regular skipper Rohit Sharma would return a negative COVID-19 test and get the green light to lead the rearranged fifth Test at Edgbaston on Friday, but were forced into making alternative arrangements.
Sharma remains in isolation after continuing to test positive on the eve of the match, thrusting the fast bowler into the spotlight for the series decider. India led 2-1 when this game was cancelled last September due to COVID-19 concerns among their squad.

England are a much-changed side since then, fresh from a barnstorming 3-0 victory over world Test champions New Zealand, but Bumrah is undaunted.
"You play cricket for responsibility; when there is pressure the taste of success feels good," he said.
"I'm always up for more responsibility. I love tough challenges and this is no different. You want to challenge yourself in deep water.
"I spoke to MS (Dhoni) - he was straight away captain of India, had never captained anyone else, and was one of the most successful ever. I am only focused on how I can help the team, not what I have done before, how cricket conventions work or how the rules are set."
England head coach Brendon McCullum predicted last week that England's performances against the Kiwis would "set alarm bells" off across the world but Bumrah, who topped the wicket charts with 18 in the original four-match rubber, refused to fan the flames.
"We try to focus on our team more than the other team," he said.
"I don't want to give a mental advantage. We don't play to lose, to just compete or to draw. We play to win."
England have recalled veteran James Anderson to the bowling attack in place of Jamie Overton while Sam Billings takes the gloves in place of the injured Ben Foakes.
New skipper Ben Stokes admits there is an element of risk in asking 36-year-old Stuart Broad and 23-year-old rookie Matthew Potts to play a fourth Test in a little over four weeks.
The pair played all three Tests against New Zealand with Potts delivering 51 overs in the match and Broad 47, his highest load for five years. Stokes bowled only four overs.
Stokes said: "There was actually a method to why I didn't bowl. I really wanted to push the bowlers as far as I possibly could, to make them realise what they can do," he said.
"Broady, in particular, wasn't very happy with me. It's funny, as bowlers have your green zones, amber zones and red zones based on how much work you've done at the end of a Test. Broady said he's created a new zone called the burgundy zone.
"But that Test match was bigger than the result, as I keep saying. What we did over the last three weeks is reshape how Test cricket is played.
"I honestly believe bowling out the best team in the world with three seamers and a spinner has done everybody the world of good. Doing what they did that whole week was really pushing them to their limits and making them understand what they are capable of doing."
