There’s nothing that beats an Easter break party like an epic beach getaway organized by event powerhouse, Talent Africa in partnership with Tusker Lite.
This Easter period, all roads lead to Nature’s Green Beach Resort, Busabala, where partygoers and thrill seekers will be treated to a night of the outdoors, great music and lakeshore views at the exhilarating mini-outdoor festival dubbed the “Full Moon Experience.”
Partygoers will get a glimpse of the upcoming much-anticipated Nyege Nyege Fest set for later this year in September as they revel to the sounds and sights of what will be the party of the month.
The beach festival that is slated to take place on April 16 is expected to have two stages of nonstop tropical disco music, afrobeats, electronic music, performances, fire dancers, and a night of endless partying on the wild side.
“We could not be more excited! Not only have we collaborated with the best of the best in the events business, but Tusker Lite will be there to bring you a fun rollercoaster party experience like never before,” says Elizabeth Mutamuliza, Tusker Lite Brand Manager.
There will be a massive line up featuring local and international DJs and acts like Raindrops, Afrorack, Soul Tribe, Melodic Inversions, Hola Jefe, Siyan and so much more.
Tickets to the Full Moon Experience are being sold on the Talent Africa group app and are already in circulation with the early bird tickets going for Shs30,000 before April 14th. Gate tickets will be at Shs40,000 and a VIP Experience going for Shs400,000, which includes a foods and drinks package.
The Full Moon parties are an all-night beach party with origins from Thailand that date back to 1985. The party usually takes place on the night of, before, or after every full moon.

Service Department - 2 Thumbs Down!!!
by 05/06/2019
onI've been using Century BMW for 11 years and not because of the great service department either. Only because they're the only dealership in the Greenville area. I can go on and on with my poor and aggravating experiences but the latest is 2 hr wait for a scheduled oil appointment. Of course I couldn't wait so I left and paid $90 at Firestone. I'm asking myself what is the sense in buying an expensive maintenance free car when you cannot maintain it with BMW. Disappointed again!!

Dissatisfied Customer
by 06/27/2016
onWhen I first went to the dealership, I bought a 2005 745 LI. The car was just coming in so I had to wait for two weeks before I could even get the car. They said that they were going to run checks on the car and clean it up. Took 2 weeks. When they finally met me with my car, I drove the car for two days and it wouldn't start. They sent a tow truck to pick it up from my home and gave me something else to drive. That took two more weeks. Then I got my car back and the car started smoking and making noises like it didn't want to start. So they took the car back for repair. By that time I'm completely upset with the way the car is running. I called many many times to speak to the store manager and he would never speak to me. Finally I contact someone who was share owner of the business for assistance. She had someone call me back within the hour. They told me to come back they had a 2006 750 LI with less miles waiting for me. Well I went back and bought that vehicle which they charged me more money for and bumped up my payments. This car ran good for about a few months and then all the problems started. I still have this car and it has never ran right since I purchased it. I wish I could go back in time, and never bought the car from this company. It's very sad how they take advantage of people and mislead us when we are spending our hard earned money on these vehicle. The least they could do is give me my money's worth. Well, in conclusion, I would never recommend anyone to buy a vehicle from this company. The cars are LEMONS!!!!! I'm a dissatisfied customer completely!!!!!

onI always find car buying a long stressful experience. Century BMW went above and beyond any of my expectations. They were informative with out making me feel pressured to purchase. I worked with Nathan Wilson sales advisor and love my new BMW. The best decision I have made.

Purchase of M235i Convertible
by 04/11/2016
onThe dealer posts the MSRP and the sale price of its cars on its website. Its sale prices are very competitive. This makes it very easy and stress-free to make a purchase. The dealer also was able to arrange for me to have the car I was interested in trading appraised at one of its Charlotte network dealers (close to my home) so I knew ahead of time what they would offer. I got a good price for the new car and a reasonable trade-in price. Additionally, I wanted the wheels swapped from another, similar car - which they did at no charge (while a Charlotte dealer wanted me to pay for the wheel swap). And, they changed the grilles and threw in a set of all-weather floor mats.

Poor customer service
by 02/15/2016
onWaiting almost 8 month for getting the refund for a canceled warranty, after making several personal and phone request about this problem is for this kind of dealer ship unacceptable. Even talking to management made no difference and I never received any appology or acknowledgment. The trust in this business is gone.

disappointed and confused
by 02/25/2015
onNeedless to say that I was looking for a new car to replace my current one. So we did an internet search and found that this dealer had one that essentially matched our requirements. However, when we got there the next day, we were told that the particular car we looked at was already "SOLD", and wanted us to look at other cars ... this could potentially happen if we waited a few days in between, but that's not the case here. Ok, this could happen, small probability, but could, so I will give it some benefit of doubt. Then what happened next is just confusing. There was 3 people trying to "follow up" with me via emails and phone calls, until I made an appointment with one of them via email and got confirmation about the appointment. When I showed up at the dealership though, the sales person had no idea that I was coming that morning, and the car was not ready etc etc?. What's even more confusing is that I saw my name on their bulletin board for an appointment time that is entirely different than the one we reserved.

Buyer beware!
by 11/04/2014
onI flew down from New York to South Carolina on January 17,2014 to purchase a used vehicle from this dealership. I sat down to do the finance paperwork with Jim M and was sold a BMW road hazard tire & wheel protection warranty for $1289/5 Year/Unlimited mileage which is listed on my bill of sale which I am currently paying for. I was driving to work on the morning of October 6th 2014 and my tire light comes on and I pull over and notice I got a flat tire due to a nail. I called a tow truck and got the vehicle towed to my local BMW ($185 out of pocket charge). I get inside the dealership and the service rep asked how I would like to pay. I tell him I have a BMW road hazard tire & wheel protection warranty. The tech checks his system and says he doesnt see anything on file and I should contact the dealership I bought the car from. I called and talked to Rodney and explained my situation and he told me to to pay for the tire and the service and the dealership would reinburse me ($573.91 out of pocket charge). I dont know why my warranty that I paid for is not active. Rodney then fedex me a different warranty that he wanted me to sign that was not unlimited mileage no towing coverage, non bmw warranty basically not what I paid for. I contacted Sonic motor group to see if they can do anything about the situation and Vicky contact the manager who called me the same day I contacted Sonic. He appologized for the mixup and promised to call me the next day. Its been two weeks and I havnt heard anything from the manager who promised to call me back. I lost a day of work and weeks of frustration trying to get my money for the towing and the tire/replacement costs. Emails/phone calls and nobody can help me. Whats going to happen if got forbid I get another flat tire? please think of other options before going to this dealership. The lack of communication and unprofessionalism that I recieved I wouldnt want anyone else to experience that

FIRST COMFORTABLE EXPERIENCE AT BUYING A USED VEHICLE
by 04/27/2013
onI felt a sense of true representation of the auto I bought - both in condition of the car and in a good price. They research the surrounding area of 250 mile radius to determine averages of year, mechanical condition, miles driven, accident and service records, number of previous owners and their locations, and asking prices. This appears to be the best scientific way of judging a car's desireability of ownership. This approach gave me confidence that I was making the best choice. I also used the same analysis with the use of various "auto trading" services for verification. I was allowed "my own good time" in inspecting the vehicle, test driving, and asking questions about it's condition and history. No rushing, no pressure salesmanship, no impatience, always courteous with a "customer comes first" attitude. Also, I'm certain that I received a good deal up front without annoying "price negotiations". I will definitely put this dealer first choice in any future auto buying. Lastly, but not least, I would like to thank my salesman, Greg, for his very kind and professional help. Larry

Great buying experience
by 03/09/2013
onWe had a great experience working with Jana C at Century BMW. She knows BMW's products very well and was a pleasure to work with. Jana was able to help us build the exact car we wanted with the options we cared about. The Spartanburg plant came through with the vehicle in record time as well (10 days from order to delivery!) All in all, this was an amazingly great car buying experience. Jana played a large part in how good it was. We will go back the next time we need a car. Highly recommended!

Not the place to find the best value.
by 12/30/2012
onI bought one X5 and leased one 550i from this dealership. They play hard ball on price. I tried to buy the 550i at the end of the lease for the market value -- they refused. I ended up buying a nearly identical vehicle (except for having 4K more miles) for about $11K under the price that Century offered. Bob W. is an excellent sales agent. He knows the product and is very professional; however, his management is leading him to provide pricing that is far above what is available in Charlotte or Asheville. If you do not mind paying a premium for the "Century" brand, this is your dealer. If you are willing to drive to Charlotte to Hendrick you can save thousands of dollars and deal with equally professional sales personnel. Enjoy driving the ultimate driving machine!

Excellent car buying experience
by 10/18/2012
onWe recently bought a used BMW from Century BMW seen in Autotrader. Our salesman,Bob W., was wonderful and his customer service and follow up the best. We bought our car site unseen and it was everything he promised and more. When we picked up our car it was detailed, full of gas and everything that was promised. Bob had taken many calls and questions from us prior to our purchasing. He answered every question and inquiry promptly. When we arrived at dealership, the red carpet was rolled out and we felt as if we were purchasing the most expensive car in their showroom. The general manager also greeted us and we were shown around their beautiful showroom.It was the best car buying experience we have ever had. We will be recommending the drive to Greenville to all our friends and will buy our next BMW from Century BMW. It was worth the 3 hour drive.

onShawn is a great associate, very knowlegeable of the BMW product and communicates well. The buying process was fun and smooth. All of our questions and concerns were answered. We enjoyed the entire process. Every employee at Century BMW was impressive to include the receptionist, service department, finance department, and detail department. If you need to buy a BMW in the Upstate, you should make Century BMW your first and last stop. Shawn, thanks for serving us. We are extremely pleased with our convertible BMW!

Dunkin' Donuts Park, Yard Goats get new eats
HARTFORD — When the Hartford Yard Goats face the Binghamton Rumble Ponies opening night at Dunkin’ Donuts Park on Friday, the new Minor League Baseball season will be sure to tantalize the tastebuds of fans.
The Yard Goats introduced their new menu items on Monday morning that goes beyond the classics.
“It used to be just hamburgers and hot dogs,” Tim Restall, president of the Yard Goats, said.
Though the classic hamburger and hot dog are still on the menu, a lot more items with a lot more invention have been added to the menu.
“This is my second go round,” said Daymon Patterson, better known as online food personality Daym Drops, who also has a stand stationed behind home plate on the field level. “Joe and his amazing team has put together some awesome food.”
Joe is Joseph Bartlett, executive chef at Dunkin’ Donuts Park.
“We start with going over a cliff, and then we take a few steps back,” Bartlett said, describing how he and his team come up with new food ideas each season.
As inventive as his Bartlett’s ideas may get, he said, they always keep it “in the realm of ballpark food.”
If a hamburger is what you want, the hamburger station at the main gate of the ballpark will offer the All-American Burger: With bacon, cheddar cheese, lettuce, and tomato.
If you’re looking for a more adventurous burger, at the same location, you can get the Cuban burger: a hamburger spin on the classic Cuban sandwich with Dijon mustard, pickles, provolone cheese, and ham, on an 8-ounce burger.
The stand will also feature turkey and impossible burgers for the more health-conscious consumer.
Restall said he’s tried most of the new foods featured. His favorite so far is the Flamin’ Hot Cheetos street corn, offered at Daym Dogs behind home plate.
Patterson said the spicy street corn is topped with jalapenos and dusted with Flamin’ Hot Cheetos on top.
“It sparks extra flavor for the corn itself,” he said. “Your taste buds are going to get a kick you may or may not be ready for.
If you want some street corn without the heat, the queso spread street corn is an option, which comes with a mayonnaise rub, smoked paprika, and fresh parsley, Bartlett said.
If you’d rather have your heat on a hot dog, Patterson offers a variant on the street corn, but on a hot dog, and instead of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos dust, there are whole Cheetos on top.
“You’re getting the whole Cheeto for the ‘crunch n’ munch,’” Patterson said. “This hot dog here with the jalapenos, it’s a spicy situation.”
The spicy dog, along with another new dog on the menu, a sauerkraut and pretzel hot dog, are offered on a Coney bun, Patterson said.
“A Coney bun is a thick bun,” he said. “It’s a meaty hearty bun. When you’re finished eating and watching the game, you will be full.”
For the person with a huge craving for fried food all in one basket, the Fat Sandwich is the thing to try.
“It’s chicken tenders, French fries, julienne pickles, doughnut holes, mashed into a fried dough,” Bartlett said. It is topped with a red pepper coulis (a thin vegetable puree used as a sauce) and honey mustard.
If you’re looking for something a bit healthier, he said, they are also offering Incognito chicken tenders, a soy-based vegan chicken tender that comes with French fries and barbecue sauce.
Some fun foods for the kids and adults alike include buffalo chicken nuggets and old-fashioned macaroni and cheese served in waffle cones.
Being Dunkin’ Donuts Park, Bartlett said, they couldn’t go without some new items featuring doughnuts.
There’s the Spicy Chicken sandwich, he said, which is a honey siracha-glazed fried chicken between two honey glazed doughnuts, with a doughtnut hole on stop.
For dessert, he said, a new item is the deep fried, double dipped doughnut holes with whipped cream and sprinkles.
“They’ll be available all season and we hope everybody comes out to enjoy it,” he said.

GOP Gov Makes Bold Stand to Protect Her State's Children, and the Left Is Up in Arms
The left’s current focus for its Two Minutes Hate is GOP Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, he of the so-called “Don’t Say Gay” bill that doesn’t say gay once. Give it a week or two, though, and there’s a good chance Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey could be replacing him.
Mind you, Ivey isn’t a 2024 presidential hopeful and Alabama is nowhere near as populous as Florida. However, on Friday, Ivey signed the first law criminalizing the use of puberty blockers, hormone therapies or transgender surgeries to minors, according to The Hill. Violators could be subject to up to 10 years behind bars.
(Here at The Western Journal, we’ve been documenting how these drugs are mostly untested on children and how the evidence for their use is more ideological than medical. The facts have proven us right — and yet, the left continues to insist nothing’s wrong. We’ll keep fighting them tooth and nail, even as Big Tech tries to starve us of ad revenue for doing so. You can help our fight by subscribing.)
In addition to criminalizing the use of the experimental therapies on minors, the law also requires students to use facilities that match their gender and prohibits instruction in gender identity or sexual orientation until sixth grade — going even further than Florida’s bill, which only prohibits it until fourth grade.
“There are very real challenges facing our young people, especially with today’s societal pressures and modern culture,” Ivey said in a Friday statement, according to WIAT-TV.
“I believe very strongly that if the Good Lord made you a boy, you are a boy, and if he made you a girl, you are a girl. We should especially protect our children from these radical, life-altering drugs and surgeries when they are at such a vulnerable stage in life.
“Instead, let us all focus on helping them to properly develop into the adults God intended them to be.”
Only one other state — Arkansas — has moved to block access to the drugs for minors, although a federal judge has blocked its enforcement until a lawsuit is decided. Over 30 bills are in the works in other states, as well.
As for the law’s restrictions on what facilities students can use in school, Ivey called it common sense.
“Here in Alabama, men use the men’s room, and ladies use the ladies’ room — it’s really a no-brainer,” she said.
“This bill will also ensure our elementary school classrooms remain free from any kind of sex talk. Let me be clear to the media and opponents who like to incorrectly dub this the ‘Don’t Say Gay’ amendment: That is misleading, false and just plain wrong. We don’t need to be teaching young children about sex. We are talking about five-year-olds for crying out loud.
“We need to focus on what matters – core instruction like reading and math.”
There are plenty of organizations that disagree with that assessment, starting with the American Civil Liberties Union, LGBT organization Lambda Legal and the Transgender Law Center, all of which are threatening lawsuits.
“If the state moves forward in passing this unconstitutional bill, we’ll see them in court,” said ACLU staff attorney Kaitlin Welborn.
The ACLU’s Tish Gotell Faulks, meanwhile, also claimed the legislation was unconstitutional and said the organization plans to go to court “[t]o prevent the state of Alabama from interfering in the relationship between trans kids, their parents, and their medical providers.”
Democrats on the state and national level also took aim at Ivey.
State House Rep. Neil Rafferty, a Democrat, called the bill “an assault on decency” during a speech on the state House floor Thursday.
“Every single one of them is going to affect somebody that lives in each one of my colleagues’ district,” he said.
Speaking to members of the LGBT community, Rafferty said, “I understand that you’re scared. I understand that you feel that you have a target on your back. But I want you to know … I still got your back, all right?”
Yes, Rafferty still has their back — by allowing their parents to consent to medical procedures they cannot fully comprehend as a treatment for a mental condition with a high rate of desistance once patients exit puberty. He may have someone’s back, but it’s probably not his constituents or their children.
Furthermore, the bill caught the attention of the White House — and it wasn’t long before Peppermint Patty herself, White House press secretary Jen Psaki, was giving Alabama the what-for from the Brady Press Briefing Room podium.
“Alabama’s lawmakers and other legislators who are contemplating these … discriminatory bills have been put on notice by the Department of Justice and the Department of Health and Human Services that laws and policies preventing care that health care professionals recommend for transgender minors may violate the Constitution and federal law,” Psaki said Thursday.
Of course, the timing of this isn’t necessarily stellar. In spite of a massive offensive against the so-called “Don’t Say Gay” bill (which doesn’t say gay), it remains popular among Florida voters — including Democrats.
It remains to be seen what voters think of Alabama’s legislation, but it comes as revelations emerge that studies that found “gender-affirming” care — a pleasant euphemism for puberty blockers, hormone therapies and surgery — for young transgender individuals was effective was funded in large part by pharmaceutical companies who stand to benefit if the therapies see wider use, according to the Daily Caller.
Now that the DeSantis backlash has mostly fizzled, perhaps the left can turn its propagandistic guns on Ivey. It’s likely to be a little harder, however, and not just because of those inconvenient facts. After all, erroneous though it may have been, “Don’t Say Gay” was a rhyming and catchy slactivist slogan. “No Hormones for Hector,” try as they might to make it work, doesn’t have quite the same ring to it.

61 drivers, conductors and others positive for drug use: PDEA
Sixty-one public transport drivers, conductors, dispatchers, and other employees were tested positive for illegal drug use, out of the 4,210 who underwent drug-screening during the nationwide implementation of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) Oplan: “Harabas” on April 8 in time for the coming Holy week.
The drug tests were conducted in major bus, jeepney, tricycle and public utility vehicle (PUV) terminals throughout the country.
Out of the total drivers who yielded positive for the use of methamphetamine hydrochloride, or shabu and marijuana, 20 were tricycle drivers; 10 were jeepney drivers; 11 were bus drivers; seven were van drivers; seven were tricycle drivers; five were conductors; and one dispatcher.
Those drivers tested positive for drug use upon confirmatory test will not be allowed to travel and have their licenses confiscated by the Land Transportation Office (LTO). They must undergo appropriate intervention and reformation programs to be provided by their respective local Barangay Anti-Drug Abuse Councils (BADACs) before reclaiming their licenses.
PDEA Director General Wilkins Villanueva said the agency implemented the 2022 iteration of Oplan: “Harabas as part of the agency’s holistic approach in reducing the demand for illegal drugs, promoting drug-free workplaces, and reformation.
PDEA also implemented Oplan: “Harabas” to conduct K9 sweeping operations in public transport terminals, including the country’s high-risk airports and seaports, to detect concealed illegal drugs carried by passengers.
PDEA thanked the LTO, Land Transportation and Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB), Philippine National Police (PNP) and Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) for their valuable participation.
Oplan: “Harabas” was implemented in accordance with the provisions of Republic Act 9165, or The Comprehensive Dangerous Act of 2002”, and Republic Act No.10586, or the “Anti-Drunk and Drugged Driving Act of 2013”, as well as Dangerous Drugs Board (DDB) Regulation No. 2 Series of 2004, aimed to curb road accidents caused by drugged drivers.
“There is no doubt that there is a prevailing practice of drug use among the public transport driving population to keep awake while behind the wheel. OPLAN: “HARABAS” is an effective deterrent to lessen drug-related road accidents and protect innocent lives,” Villanueva said. PDEA

BMW, Volkswagen Suppliers Face Scrutiny Over Ties to Xinjiang
Bloomberg News
,(Bloomberg) -- Some of the world’s biggest automakers are linked through their suppliers to labor programs in China’s Xinjiang region that experts have flagged as coercive, according to a new report by Horizon Advisory, a U.S.-based consultancy.
The concerns center around the production of aluminum, raising questions for another key industry about alleged human rights abuses in its supply chain.
Suppliers to BMW AG, General Motors Co. and Volkswagen AG, as well as to China-based electric vehicle manufacturers including Nio Inc. and BYD Co., are linked to controversial labor programs in Xinjiang, according to the study.
READ MORE: Secrecy and Abuse Claims Haunt China’s Solar Factories in Xinjiang
The complexity of modern supply chains — in which raw materials can pass through multiple manufacturers or countries before they’re used in finished products — means it’s difficult to make definitive links between Xinjiang’s plants and major brands. And China has repeatedly rejected international criticisms of the work programs, calling allegations of forced labor “the lie of the century” and defending its policies as an effort to reduce poverty and unemployment.
Even so, the U.S. and allies have sanctioned several individuals and entities with ties to Xinjiang and curbed imports of cotton products, tomatoes and solar equipment. From July, the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act will ban goods from Xinjiang unless U.S. importers can prove they aren’t made with forced labor.
Volkswagen said it has no evidence of forced labor by its Xinjiang suppliers and is not aware of any aluminum from the region being used in its manufacturing or products. The company “takes its responsibility as companies in the field of human rights worldwide very seriously,” a spokesperson said, adding that any allegations are immediately investigated and contracts will be terminated if issues can’t be remedied.Representatives for BMW, GM, Nio, BYD and China’s foreign ministry didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
“There’s going to be a huge challenge to a big swath of industries,” said Nathan Picarsic, a co-founder of Horizon who is scheduled to offer testimony Friday at a hearing of the Forced Labor Enforcement Task Force. Company supply chains still depend on Chinese industrial policies which make “forced labor part and parcel of business as usual” for producers in Xinjiang, he said.
Aluminum hasn't so far been a focus of international attention on Xinjiang, but the region accounted for about 9% of global production. The country as a whole provided about 60% of the world’s aluminum in 2020, and transportation, including the auto industry, was its second-largest consumer.
Horizon’s report cites government and corporate documents that tie metal operations controlled by eight companies to labor transfer programs or to Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps — one of the state-linked organizations that’s been sanctioned by the U.S. government over alleged human-rights abuses.
Though documents alone can’t provide conclusive evidence of involvement in forced labor, the study on the aluminum sector found more indicators of complicity than in any previous case, said Emily de La Bruyere, also a co-founder of Horizon.
The report highlighted Xinjiang Zhonghe, a producer of high-purity aluminum. The company is as a participant in vocational programs for rural migrant workers and in job transfer training which human rights advocates have flagged as key indicators of forced labor.
Xinjiang Zhonghe is a supplier to auto companies including GM and BMW’s joint venture firms, according to its website. Beijing WKW Automotive Parts Co. is also a client, according to Bloomberg data, and a supplier of car parts and exterior trims to VW’s China venture, BMW, BYD and Nio.
Xinjiang Zhonghe and Beijing WKW didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
In another example, the report identified Shandong-based Xinfa Group, which has a wheel manufacturing unit that supplies heavy duty truck, luxury car and electric bus manufacturers with key sales networks in the U.S., Japan, South Korea and Canada, according to its website. It also owns Xinjiang Sixth Division Aluminum Co., which was established through a 2009 agreement with the XPCC, filings reviewed by Horizon show, and — in one specific example — is documented as having sought 400 workers in 2020 from an employment transfer guidance station at Wugongtai Town, identified by advocacy groups as a coordinator of forced labor programs.
Xinfa didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
Human rights groups and a panel of United Nations experts have for years raised concerns that minority groups in Xinjiang have been subject to mass detention. Millions of laborers in the region are transferred each year as part of government-sponsored labor programs, according to a Bloomberg News analysis of official data.
“For decades, the free world has dismissed the Chinese Communist Party’s outrageous slave labor practices in order to take advantage of its cheap manufacturing,” said Florida Senator Marco Rubio, who has pushed for tougher action on forced labor. The study on aluminum operations “exposes the pervasive nature of China’s forced labor abuses in Xinjiang and shows just how reliant major international companies are on slave labor,” he said.
Among the suppliers named by Horizon, only Tianshan Aluminum Group Co. is publicly held. Its Xinjiang-based unit is named in government documents as an employment poverty alleviation base, indicating its role in labor programs, and multiple local reports detail specific transfers, according to Horizon. Recruitment materials also describe the firm’s support for the XPCC, the consultancy said. Tianshan didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
Most of Tianshan’s biggest investors are Chinese, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. But Norges Bank Investment Management took a position in late 2021 that established it as among the company’s 50 biggest shareholders, according to Bloomberg data.
“As an investor, we expect companies to respect human rights and take human rights into account in their operations,” Norges Bank Investment Management said in a statement, though it declined to comment on individual investments or specifically on Tianshan.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Prized rookie Bobby Witt Jr. made an eye-popping play at third base to nail a runner at the plate in the top of the 10th inning, then Adalberto Mondesi’s RBI single in the bottom half lifted the Kansas City Royals over the Cleveland Guardians 1-0 Saturday.
With a runner at third and one out in the Cleveland 10th, Oscar Mercado hit a hard grounder down the line that looked like it might break the scoreless tie.
But the 21-year-old Witt, the top-rated prospect in the majors, skidded onto his knees to make a backhanded stop. All in one motion, he made an off-balance throw home, where All-Star catcher Salvador Perez backhanded the ball on the second hop and made a swipe tag to get Owen Miller.
“(Collin) Snider was throwing that nasty sinker in there, so I knew there was a possibility of the ball coming to me,” Witt said. “I knew they’re going on contact, too.”
“The ball was hit to me and I just threw the ball. I knew I had to get it to Salvy because I knew he was going to make the play on it,” he said.
Kyle Isbel began the bottom half as the automatic runner at second base and moved to third on a single by Hunter Dozier. Mondesi followed with his single to center off Emmanuel Clase (0-1).
“When we started to get going offensively, they made some plays,” Cleveland manager Terry Francona said.
Snider (1-0) pitched one inning in his major league debut. The Royals improved to 2-0 with their second win over the Guardians.
Brad Keller allowed two hits in six innings for Kansas City, striking out five with one walk.
“Brad looked like a different pitcher,” Kansas City Royals manager Mike Matheny said. “…He was so efficient, pounding the zone, getting ahead. That’s everything we were hoping to see. He did a great job handing it off to a bullpen that was so impressive, right down the line, every single one of them.”
Royals relievers Dylan Coleman, Amir Garrett, Taylor Clark, Josh Staumont and Snider combined for four innings of scoreless ball with five strikeouts.
Cleveland starter Zach Plesac pitched 5 2/3 innings and gave up three hits. He fanned three and walked none.
Andrew Benintendi went 3 for 4 and got half of Kansas City’s hits.
Steven Kwan had two of Cleveland’s five hits.
TRAINER’S ROOM
The Guardians have RHP Cody Morris (right back strain) and RHP Carlos Vargas (right elbow rehab) on the injured list.
UP NEXT
The series continues on Sunday with Cal Quantrill starting for Cleveland against Kris Bubic.

ALGIERS: It’s the Algerian start-up that made good: despite the country’s notoriously complex business climate, taxi and home-delivery firm Yassir has millions of users and is expanding across Africa.
“We made it our mission to create a model of success that was genuinely, 100-percent Algerian, to develop local talent and show that it’s possible to create added value in Algeria,” said co-founder Noureddine Tayebi.
Patience has been key as they navigate the country’s archaic bureaucracy, the bugbear of investors and one that creates particularly tough terrain for new entrants.
“Bureaucracy is one obstacle that we have to overcome. I can’t say it’s easy, but you have to deal with it and move forward,” Tayebi told AFP.
It’s a sign of changing times in Algeria, which in 2020 passed a law on start-ups and created a ministry to promote them.
Since he launched Yassir five years ago with fellow engineer Mehdi Yettou, the company has rolled out across the Maghreb region and beyond.
Late last year they raised some $30 million from American investors, cash they plan to pump into an ambitious expansion plan.
The firm has indirectly created more than 40,000 driver and delivery jobs and its revenue is skyrocketing at up to 40 percent a month.
Tayebi studied in Algiers before earning his doctorate in electronic engineering at the United States’s prestigious Stanford University.
That led to a job with chip manufacturer Intel – but after eight years in Silicon Valley, he decided to return home and set up Yassir along with Yettou.
Expanding in Africa
The name is a play on the words for “easy” and “drive” in Algerian Arabic.
The pair launched their taxi app in 2017 in Algiers, a capital with a population of four million and desperately lacking public transport.
Dubai-based Qureos raises $3mn, announces launch of operations in Pakistan
The firm has since branched out into deliveries of fast food and groceries, with sister app Yassir Express.
Today Yassir has some four million subscribers in 25 cities across Algeria, neighbouring Morocco and Tunisia, as well as Canada and France.
Tayebi says he now has his sights set on West Africa – the app already works in Senegal – and other major markets on the continent such as South Africa, Nigeria and Egypt.
While its growth has been explosive, the business faces tough competition from Uber, Heetch and others.
To succeed, it will need to hire hundreds of highly skilled technicians.
It is already the biggest tech employer in the Maghreb region with some 600 engineers, a figure it wants to triple or even quadruple.
In Algiers, 30 or so young call centre operators are on hand to deal with around 6,000 orders a day.
Big ambitions
Tayebi also wants to provide an online payment system – a rarity in Algeria, where customers pay cash on delivery.
“Most of the population in Algeria and across Africa don’t have bank accounts – not because there’s no banking system, but because people don’t trust it,” Tayebi said.
He hopes to change that by capitalising on the trust the company has among its growing customer base.
“That’s the strength of our model and what sets us apart, particularly from Uber,” he said.
It also means the firm needs to keep a squeaky-clean image. One Yassir taxi driver told AFP he had been given training in communication before being hired.
Tayebi said there was “a rigorous process for selecting drivers”.
“We verify their police records, training and education. There’s even a psychological interview.”
It’s all part of a business for which he has set ambitious targets.
“The goal is to create the biggest tech company not just in Africa but in the world,” Tayebi said.
“To get there, you need to be in lots of markets.”

Customer Reviews of McCoy Mills Ford
Thrilled to own the 2017 Explorer Sport!!
by 05/22/2017
onMy husband had contacted McMcoy Mills via their website inquiring about a car and let them know what we wanted. A Black Explorer Sport with the 401A package. When we arrived that afternoon, our name was on a white board in the showroom saying welcome and what car we were looking for. That was impressive. Our salesman was friendly, professional and very knowledgeable and a delight to work with as was the gentleman in finance. It was a very easy experience. This is the third or fourth car that we have purchased there and would turn there first for our next vehicle. I personally hate buying cars as the process is usually long and tedious but I have to say this time around was a breeze. Our only suggestion - We requested to have the wheels swapped out with some that we saw on a different explorer - they were a matt black and would have looked very nice on the car we purchased. We were told that the owner, in no uncertain terms, would not switch out wheels on any vehicles. Being that we were spending 50K on a vehicle, we were very surprised that this is something they would not consider. Please do not take this as a complaint toward the dealership, as I said we will return and were very satisfied with our experience there, but we really would have liked to get the different rims - same size as the ones that are on our car -only the color/design was different. I would have liked to see them offer that to us. In closing - I did shop around and was actually told by another dealership that they did not carry the interior set up that we wanted to see and there were none available within 600 miles of us. Funny as McCoy Mills was only a couple miles down the road and there it was! We have had a relationship with this dealer since 2002 and fully intend to continue that relationship for years to come. Thank you to all the sales staff, service staff and even the body shop - everyone has helped us out with many different request over the years and that is what good business is all about!

Chad in finance was quick to get us on the road in our new beast of a ride! Even if issues come up with my Raptor I don't have the slightest doubt that it will be taken care of by this dealership.....

onI drove from Oceanside to buy a car from another dealership in the area. When I got to the dealer, I found out the car they were trying to sell me was on a train somewhere and would not be available for another week. I went to McCoy Mills "just to look" and Tim McCann not only found the exact car I wanted at another dealership, he went and got it and made sure I got the same TrueCar deal that the original dealer was offering me. Great job!

Amazing Service. Amazing Follow Up.
by 04/09/2016
onWe had researched the Ford Flex online and had contacted your dealership to get more information. We immediately received an email back with great customer service and an online quote! We decided to go ahead and check out the dealership and when we saw the Flex in the lot, my husband and I decided we wanted to see it up close and personal. We were greeted instantly, and ten handed off to Rex Bard to continue the process. He was wonderful and worked very hard with us to get us what we were desiring. They also honored the email quote I had received without any problems. I have been to dealerships before where they have tried to get out of honoring the online price.

onI recently purchased a Fusion Hybrid from McCoy. When I went in I had planned to only test drive cars, so after I fell in love with a car and wanted to buy that day there was a lot of paperwork for insurance, banking, etc. that I needed to figure out! Josh went above and beyond to help me figure out all of the information I needed and get everything lined up! Everyone at McCoy was so helpful, friendly, and patient! I had a great experience and am going to be a customer for years to come!

KRAMATORSK: Evacuations resumed on Saturday from Kramatorsk, in eastern Ukraine, where a missile strike killed 52 people at a railway station, as British Prime Minister Boris Johnson became the latest Western leader to visit Kyiv.
Hailing the country’s response to the Russian invasion, Johnson offered Ukraine armoured vehicles and anti-ship missiles to help ensure, he said, that the country will “never be invaded again”.
Because of the “invincible heroism and courage” of President Volodymyr Zelensky and the Ukrainian people, Russia’s “monstrous aims are being thwarted,“ he said.
A video released by Zelensky's office showed him and Johnson walking through largely empty city streets to Kyiv's historic Maidan Square, as snipers kept watch.
The two men greeted passersby, and one visibly emotional man called out to Johnson, “We need you.”
Johnson, who a day earlier pledged to send Ukraine weaponry including Starstreak anti-aircraft missiles and 800 anti-tank missiles, added that the discovery of scores of civilian bodies in Ukrainian towns had “permanently polluted” Russian President Vladimir Putin’s reputation.
Six weeks into Russia's invasion, Moscow has shifted its focus to eastern and southern Ukraine after stiff resistance thwarted plans to swiftly capture Kyiv.
With thousands killed in fighting and more than 11 million fleeing their homes or the country, the Ukrainian president called on the West to follow Britain's example on military aid.
“We need even more sanctions” against Russia, Zelensky said in a video address Saturday evening. “We need more weapons for our state.”
Plea to evacuate
EU leaders were meeting with Zelensky in Kyiv on Friday as news emerged of the devastating attack on Kramatorsk's station. The 52 victims included five children.
US President Joe Biden accused Russia of being behind a “horrific atrocity” in Kramatorsk, and France condemned the strike as a “crime against humanity”.
Moscow denied responsibility for the rocket attack, which also wounded 109 people, according to the latest official count.
As Russian forces regroup in the east and south of Ukraine, local officials are urging residents to flee before it is too late.
On Saturday, the mayor of eastern Lysychansk, Oleksandr Zaika, called on residents to evacuate as soon as possible due to constant shelling by the Russian army.
“It has become very difficult in the city, enemy shells are already flying,“ Zaika said in a video message. While the city had stocks of humanitarian aid, he added, “that doesn’t mean it will save your life if an enemy shell arrives”.
And more Russian shells did arrive on Saturday, killing five people in the eastern cities of Vugledar and Novo Mikhaylovka, local governor Pavlo Kyrylenko said on Telegram.
Meanwhile, in Kramatorsk minibuses assembled at a church to collect shaken evacuees. Almost 80 people, most of them elderly, sheltered in a building near the targeted station.
“There were around 300 to 400 people who rushed here after the strike,“ Yevgeny, a member of the Protestant church, told AFP.
“They were traumatised. Half of them ran to shelter in the cellar, others wanted to leave as soon as possible. Some were evacuated by bus” on Friday.
The Kramatorsk station was serving as the main evacuation hub for refugees from parts of the eastern Donbas region still under Ukrainian control.
AFP reporters at the station saw the remains of a missile tagged in white paint with the words “for our children” in Russian -- an expression used by pro-Russian separatists to invoke their own losses since fighting in Donbas began in 2014.
The governor of Donetsk claimed a missile with cluster munitions -- banned by an international treaty -- was used in the attack, according to remarks published by the Interfax news agency.
'All this horror'
Speaking Saturday from Warsaw, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said a global pledging event for Ukrainian refugees has raised 10.1 billion euros ($11 billion).
In another sign of Western solidarity, Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer also visited Kyiv and the nearby town of Bucha on Saturday.
Bucha -- where authorities say hundreds were killed, some with their hands bound -- has become a byword for the brutality allegedly inflicted under Russian occupation. And Ukrainian officials say they are uncovering even greater devastation in nearby towns.
In a joint news conference with the Austrian leader, Zelensky said Ukraine was “still ready” to continue negotiations with Moscow -- talks stalled by the killings in Bucha and elsewhere.
Ukraine said Saturday it had completed a third prisoner exchange with Russia, bringing 12 soldiers and 14 civilians home.
Warning of worse to come
Russian troops appear intent on creating a long-sought land link between occupied Crimea and the Moscow-backed separatist territories of Donetsk and Lugansk in the Donbas region.
Moscow said Russian troops had fired on a Ukrainian vessel trying to evacuate commanders of the Azov battalion from the besieged southeastern city of Mariupol.
The Azov Special Operations Detachment has been fighting Russian forces in Mariupol -- scene of some of the war's most grievous civilian suffering -- as it lies between Russia-occupied Crimea and pro-Russian separatist regions in Ukraine's east.
Moscow's defence ministry, underscoring Russian advances, said its forces had destroyed an ammunition depot in the Dnipro region and struck 85 Ukrainian military targets in the previous 24 hours.
'Help us now'
Fresh allegations also emerged from Obukhovychi, northwest of Kyiv, where villagers told AFP they were used as human shields.
Moscow has denied targeting civilians, but growing evidence of atrocities has galvanised Ukraine's allies in the EU, which has approved an embargo on Russian coal and the closure of its ports to Russian vessels.
The bloc has frozen 30 billion euros ($33 billion) in assets from blacklisted Russian and Belarusian individuals and companies, it said Friday.
It also blacklisted Putin's two adult daughters -- not long after the US and Britain did the same -- as part of its latest sanctions package, according to an official list.
As sanctions bite, credit rating agency Standard and Poor’s Global Ratings downgraded Russia’s foreign currency payments rating to “selective default” after Moscow paid a dollar-denominated debt in rubles this week. - AFP

A sublime 66 off 47 balls by wicketkeeper-batter Anuj Rawat combined with a superb show by bowlers set up Royal Challengers Bangalore’s third win of IPL 2022 with a seven-wicket victory over Mumbai Indians at MCA Stadium in Pune on Saturday.
After Harshal Patel, Wanindu Hasaranga and Akash Deep ensured that Mumbai could manage only 151/6 after being asked to bat, Rawat played a fine innings for his maiden IPL fifty with Virat Kohli making 48 off 36 balls as Bangalore registered a comfortable win with seven balls to spare in their chase of 152.
It also meant that Mumbai’s wait for a win continued as they crashed to their fourth loss on the bounce in this tournament despite a sparking, unbeaten 68 by Suryakumar Yadav rescuing them from 79/6 to a respectable 151/6, which wasn’t sufficient…

Editorial
Election campaign should be about issues and not image
The election on May 21 will inevitably be portrayed in the media as a contest between the personalities of Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese, but voters should look past the photo opportunities and slogans at the real issues.
This election is among the most important in recent years because it comes at a crucial time for the country and the world. Australia must plot a path to economic prosperity and social harmony after the COVID-19 pandemic. It must play its part in global action to deal with climate change and the threats to democracy exposed by Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.
Voters must decide whether after almost nine years in power the Coalition still has the energy to face these challenges or whether to trust the ALP.
Morrison on Sunday put his promise of a strong economy and “responsible financial management” at the centre of his pitch.
It has worked for the Liberals in the past but the differences in economic and fiscal policy between the two major parties are much less sharp than in previous elections where the Coalition attacked Labor’s policy of “tax and spend” and “debt and deficits”.
The Coalition can no longer plausibly claim to be the party of low debt. Since the Coalition took office, federal government debt has grown by $600 billion and the budget last month projected deficits as far as the eye could see.
That is not to say the Coalition’s fiscal stimulus during the pandemic was not necessary. But the government is certainly open to accusations of wasting taxpayers’ money, especially the $20 billion the JobKeeper program handed to some employers who did not need it. The Coalition has also squandered money on pork-barrelling like council grants and car parks.
The ALP has remade its platform since 2019 and trimmed its spending promises to a few strategic and popular areas such as aged care, child care and climate change action. Albanese on Sunday said by contrast the government lacks an “agenda”.
While all three areas have merit and could even be seen as a boost to the economy over time, one of the ALP’s weak spots is its vague claim that it can pay for them by spending “smarter” and cutting waste in other areas. Labor’s clear commitment to establishing a federal integrity commission will help stamp out the worst abuses of taxpayers’ money, but the ALP must show it can deliver on its promises while controlling debt.
The gap between the parties on climate change, which the Herald considers a crucial issue, has shrunk since the Coalition adopted a net zero target by 2050 but the ALP is still clearly committed to stronger action than the Coalition.
Foreign policy rarely determines Australian elections, but the Coalition has tried to sow doubts about Labor’s policy on China and even claimed the Chinese Communist Party wants Albanese to win. The war in Ukraine has given the issue greater currency but the problem with the Coalition’s line of attack is that the ALP has backed the government’s security and defence agenda so loyally that even controversial decisions such as the cancelling of the French submarine deal have barely been discussed.
While the election should not be a reality TV contest about which candidate seems like a nicer bloke, voters will inevitably have to make a judgment about the candidates’ character and competence. Morrison says his team has shown its mettle by its management of natural disasters and the pandemic in the past two years. Labor has a ready comeback pointing to the failures in aged care, the vaccine roll-out, and the response to the latest floods.
The campaign will likely throw up other issues from immigration to the place of religious belief in society to infrastructure spending here in Sydney and NSW. The Herald will eventually take a position on which party or candidates it backs. But for now, we make a commitment to readers that we will cover the next six weeks without fear or favour and focus on issues like these that really matter to Australia’s future.

Enterprise Car Sales Gastonia
Customer Reviews of Enterprise Car Sales Gastonia
First car purchase
by 08/19/2021
onWe purchased our first car in May 2021. We were happy with the vehicle until we called in to check on the registration and title work. Multiple promises of a call right back and four different guarantees of a date everything would arrive, we did our own investigating only after we were pulled over by law enforcement to find out we have a dead tag. The DMV of NC told me directly that Enterprise was in breach of contract due to error in the paperwork from Enterprise. I was told to go back to Enterprise and have them contact the DMV of Gastonia-Eastridge Mall. When I arrived back at Enterprise, the manager on duty did not want to hear or see the information from the DMV and assured me the DMV was wrong. Once again, they promised me everything was handled and would arrive within the week. It’s hard to love our very first car anymore after receiving the customer service we have after the fact. We are still waiting on the paperwork for the car and unfortunately trying to decide if we should take legal action against Enterprise Car Sales - Gastonia.

“He quickly became part of our Steelers family upon his arrival in Pittsburgh and was one of our hardest workers, both on the field and in our community. Dwayne was a great teammate, but even more so a tremendous friend to so many. I am truly heartbroken,” he said. “Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife Kalabrya, and his entire family during this difficult time.”

My goal for this short film was to make a video that brings fast downhill riding and big bike trick jumps together, which are both my favourite riding styles. To do so, we picked some of the best locations across the Vosges mountains in France around where I live in order to build all the different trails and features that I had in mind. From old open-air mining sites to steep pinewoods, every single one of them required different topographical settings which results in a great diversity in the final edit.
Firwood Slopestyle Course
Abandoned Mining Site
Steep Loamy Pines
More, better. After the 'Spirit of Freeride' project last fall, we worked closely together with the whole team to build and film these unique trails throughout the winter. Several days of digging for just a few seconds on the screen has almost become the norm at this point. All in all, we strived to showcase creativity in freeride MTB through Martin's progressive riding by especially bringing immersive fpv filming into the mix.

Volkswagen of Oakland
Customer Reviews of Volkswagen of Oakland
Poor Customer Service
by 09/15/2017
onI really thought I was done with this dealership after getting rid of the Jetta that I returned because of the whole diesel fraud back in April 2017. Well the third part agent didn't tell me I need to go on the DMV site to change ownership. Got a letter from DMV that the registration is still in my name and needed to renew the registration. Called DMV left a message and two days later Brian calls me to get that take care of. He was to send over the authorization form via email and told me to call if I didn't have it. Well I didn't get it........ The first sales rep I got kept saying Brian isn't there yet I JUST talked with him 60 seconds ago. I tried to explain that I had just talked with him and if he could just go check who handles the dmv registration changeovers. He left me on hold until the phone went to voicemail because he simply didn't want to deal with finding the right Brian or connecting me with someone who could help me......like Felinda, the manager. I could tell from his voice that I was just a big nuances and he was just looking for a way to get rid of me. Then I called back to get ANOTHER incompetent employee who got me over to another employee who left me on hold for so long that my phone call AGAIN went to voice mail. I called back a third time and this time asked for the manger Felinda. I asked to speak to her directly. I was patched through to her VOICEMAIL. So I called back to get her on the line. At this point I'm livid and rightly so. So I kept calling back until someone would get off their [non-permissible content removed] and actually do something to help me. That took 10 call backs until some found her. Seems that the only way to get anyone to respond at VW is to be the squeaky wheel. Niceness doesn't work at this dealership. It did 10 years ago when I bought my EOS but since then the whole staff has changed. My registration is due on the 18. I called on Monday to have this handled. It is now Wednesday. I'm upset about , ONCE AGAIN, the customer service of the employees at VW Oakland. Check out my other reviews. I truly hope that this place goes out of business. With the way I have been treated there starting with the guy who leased me my jetta in 2013 to today, I truly hope that no one else has the displeasure of dealing with their rudeness. I have a beautiful BMW 328i convertible with 17,000 miles on it that drives like a dream and costed me less then my crappy Jetta TDI. So glad to be rid of the VW and THIS dealership. BMW staff is so much nicer, classier and knowledgeable over all. Stay Away!

onHad a wonderful experience her buying a car from Samuel. Was looking at a golf for my aunt who is 60 over. Samuel was very attentive, informative and helpful. My aunt is older so his patience was much appreciated as he went through explaining all the features of the car and exactly what each instrument panel did. I think this may have been one of the best experiences we have had from start to finish. If your going to buy a car go see Samuel. Thank you again!

onWithout any pressure or sense of urgency our salesperson Sam listened to what I wanted, found the car I wanted, then got it to me in the time frame and price he promised. The numerous other Volkswagen dealerships I contacted had a horrible habit of promoting color and option choices I really wasn't interested in while at the same time steering me towards something they had in stock.

Great price, easy transaction
by 06/02/2016
onI contacted VW of Oakland about a vehicle and they gave me a great price over email (unlike many dealers who promise they will give you a great price but refuse to give quotes by email or phone). I showed up, closed the deal, and left with the car. No quirky sales tactics, no hidden fine prints. In one word: easy.

BUYER BEWARE!!!
by 09/06/2015
onI have now had two horrendous experiences with this dealership. Please do yourself a favor and don't even walk in their front door. Two words to explain the most recent idiotic mistake this dealership has made: IDENTITY THEFT. My husband and I bought a CPO car from this dealership last November (2014). The buying experience was pretty good, and we were both pretty happy at the time. Flash forward to two weeks ago, I get a credit card in the mail that I never signed up for...and another....and another. I called and found out that someone had stolen my identity. One of the credit card companies said that whoever had my information had my driver's license number among other information. According the fraud representative that I spoke to, it's rare for identity thieves to get that information. So all of this is going on and I'm wondering how my identity was taken. I initially thought it was cyber fraud. Then...one full week after I start to deal with this issue, I get a letter in the mail (no call, no email, pretty much the slowest and impersonal form of communication that you can possibly think of) from VW of Oakland that there had been a break-in on July 27th and some of my paperwork had been stolen from their building. July 27th...and the date on the header of the letter is August 20th. Nice, so you waited over three weeks to notify me...awesome. At that point, I had already been dealing with my identity theft. A phone call on July 28th would have been really helpful. So now I get to spend DAYS of my life picking up the pieces due to this dealership's blatant disregard for basic security practices. Not to mention that this could potentially haunt me for years to come. Just in case anyone else had their identity stolen from VW of Oakland and is reading this, the website for the Fair Trade Commission is a great resource for what you need to do to clean up the mess. https://www.identitytheft.gov/ Beyond that, I had several atrocious experiences with the unprofessional and uncaring service department. I don't really feel the need to elaborate on that. It seems like there are plenty of other reviews that show the ridiculousness of how their service department does business. But I will say this, they don't care about their customers one iota. I live closer to Winn Volkswagen and their service department is stellar in comparison. Please do yourself a HUGE favor and go there instead. I plan to post this review on any and all review sites and social media outlets that I possibly can in order to save others my terrible experience.

Scattered but willing to deal
by 12/05/2012
onThe salesperson kept getting confused about everything - the numbers we were e-mailing back and forth, the model and specs of the car, but was persistent about staying in contact and we eventually ended up with a very good price. We conducted all of our negotiations by e-mail and only went to the dealership to pick up the car after we purchased it. That was just as well because the dealership was pretty dark and dingy, we didn't even want to sit in the dirty old chairs in the waiting room. We didn't get much information about the car until we drove it to a better-lit area of the dealership to try to figure out the controls ourselves, then the sales manager came out and helped us. I would only recommend this dealership to buyers who know exactly what they want and are skilled negotiators. Save yourself the time and trouble, don't go there in person!

onI was in the market for a Touareg, and used Edmunds to look up vehicle info and inquire to local dealers. 5 dealers responded, but Keith from VW Oakland seemed very personable and responded promptly to my questions. After several emails, I decided to deal with VW Oakland and I am very happy with my decision. The deal was great, the transaction was fast and smooth, and we were in and out of there in less than 2 hours! I highly recommend VW Oakland and would deal with them again in a future purchase!

From the salesman I worked with to the sales manager and the finance guy, I have been amazed at the sincere, attentive and pleasant attention and service we received at every step.

Surprisingly Excellent Experience
by 07/05/2011
onI expected my first new car buying experience to be a nightmare, as it often is for most people, but I was consistently and continually surprised by the service I received from the VW of Oakland Sales staff, specifically Dave Parsons. After requesting an online quote, I was of course immediately barraged by a slew of emails from every VW dealer within fifty miles, but Dave at Oakland called me within an hour as well to schedule a test drive. Any questions I had regarding the model on their lot were answered via email almost immediately. Their GTI, while close to what I wanted, had the sunroof package included which was an extra $2,000 I had not been expecting to pay for. When I informed Dave that I had located the base model at another dealership further away and would be canceling my appointment with him, he had the exact the car driven up from the other dealership to his location with only a few hours notice. Appreciating that kind of effort, I agreed to come in and take a look at the car, but asked that he honor the deal promised to me by the other dealership, which was invoice price. He agreed to this prior to our meeting and honored it when I came in for a test drive. Immediately after arriving at the dealership, we took it out on the road with a full tank of gas, and Dave explained the various features. Later, while the paperwork was being taken care of at the finance office, we spent the spare time going over every detail of the car. They even gave me exactly what I asked for on my trade in vehicle without a fuss, which I was not expecting. We finished the entire process in less than three hours, which to my understanding, is pretty quick. Overall, I got what I wanted, at the fair price I asked for, quickly, without any haggling, all because they were willing to go the extra mile to bring my new car to me. Neither Dave nor the gentleman at the financing office were pushy, and I never felt like they were trying to slip anything by me the entire time. Should I decide to buy another VW in the future or have a friend that's in the market for one, you can bet I'll be thinking of VW of Oakland first. Thanks Dave.

Sales Experience Not To Be Believed
by 11/02/2008
onEver wonder why buying a car is an experience dreaded by so many people? Go to Broadway VW in Oakland (aka Volkswagen of Oakland) and you won't wonder any longer. We went there to find out about VW's Sign Then Drive program and what the VW we wanted would cost, if it was included in the program. After the meet and greet, I was sat down at a sales desk and, first thing, the salesperson asked if I was ready to buy today. My reply was a second request to tell me about the program and what the VW we wanted would cost, if it was included in the program. Would we be interested in a similar VW if the price was right? No. Would we be interested in a similar VW if the price was really right? No! Was there any price that would interest in a similar VW? Though I was tempted to ask if the salesperson didn't understand the "N" or the "O", I simply replied again, "no!!" and said again that I wanted was to know what the VW we wanted would cost if it was included in the program. The salesperson got up, walked to where a white-haired old man was standing and, together, they walked out of the dealership. I'd been there, maybe, five minutes. While I was waiting for the salesperson to return, another salesperson placed a plate of food on the desk next to where a I was sitting and returned to inner sanctum of the dealership. Presumably the food was for the salesperson who was "assisting" me. Five more minutes passed with me sitting and speculating what was going on before I got up and walked to the doorway through which the salesperson and the old man had left the dealership. I met them there as they were coming back into it. The old man asked if I couldn't wait a few minutes in a tone of voice that, I suspect, was intended to intimidate me into sheepishly returning to the salesperson's desk and buying whatever he wanted to sell me, today. Instead, I told the old man that informing me of whether the VW we want is included in the program and what it would cost shouldn't take a minute let alone 10-15 minutes. The old man retorted that I could buy the VW we wanted for a price that was way higher than the highest possible MSRP and pay over $100 a month more than the highest program payment quoted on the VW site for the VW closest to the one we wanted. I followed my wife to our car and drove home. She'd left the dealership after I told the salesperson I wasn't going to buy today the second time. She's a lot patient than I am. The VW we wanted was the car we wanted when we went into the dealership. It's not the car we want now. Saturn sells German cars at least as highly rated in Germany as VWs so we're going to find out soon whether or not a Saturn is going to be the car we want. After an Audi, two BMW cars, a 911 Porsche and a beat up old Jetta that I drive in areas where a shiny new car would make me a target, maybe it's time for an Opel. Maybe the folks at Broadway VW did me a favor.

Which activity cubes are best?
If you are looking for a fun way to develop your child’s cognitive and motor skills, activity cubes are the way to go. They can help improve everything from hand-eye coordination to reading and problem-solving skills. Best of all, they keep kids entertained while doing so.
There are plenty of things to consider when choosing an activity cube for your child, such as the build materials and theme, but the most important is how well it fits their developmental age. If you want a cube that can grow with your child from the time they are a baby through to their toddler years, opt for a model with plenty of activities of varying skill levels, such as the Hape Country Critters Wooden Activity Play Cube.
What to know before you buy an activity cube
Developmental stage
Activity cubes can provide countless hours of entertainment and learning for a child, but only if you get one that fits their skill levels. Most activity cubes list the intended age range, but you’ll also need to consider an individual child’s developmental stage when choosing a model. Ideally, the activities should reinforce and build on things they already know or things you are just beginning to teach them.
For example, if your child understands a few letters, consider buying an activity cube that has the entire alphabet or perhaps a few basic words they can practice spelling out. Very young toddlers tend to do best with activity cubes that provide a lot of tactile sensations because they can enjoy these long before they begin to recognize shapes or letters.
In addition to cognitive skills, consider motor skills. An activity cube should be challenging for a child but not so difficult they become frustrated when trying to use it.
Theme
Along with your child’s developmental stage, consider their interests. Activity cubes are available in a variety of themes, ranging from sports to animals and storybook fantasies. Choosing a model that incorporates pictures, shapes and characters they like should make it more engaging for them. Some models also mix themes, which are great for children who don’t yet have specific likes and dislikes.
Safety
While you might assume any toy marketed for children is safe, this is not always the case. This means the responsibility ultimately falls on parents and other caretakers to ensure they aren’t giving children a toy that could be dangerous. When looking at activity cubes, consider the size of the pieces and if any can be detached or broken off by a determined child. Check that it doesn’t have sharp edges or corners.
Materials
Activity cubes are made from a variety of materials. Wood is the most eco-friendly option but plastic models often are cheaper and more likely to have sounds or music. There also are plushie activity cubes for babies.
What to look for in a quality activity cube
Number and type of activities
Some activity cubes only have a few activities while others might have 15 or more. The greater the number of activities and the more variety, the more time a child will spend playing with it. The most common activities are bead mazes, matching mazes, abacus sliders, shape sorters and spinning gears.
Sounds
Activity cubes with sounds can be more engaging, especially for young children. Some feature pianos, xylophones or other instruments. There also are models that play recordings at the touch of a button, such as counting, animal sounds or nursery rhymes.
Lights
Lights also can make activity cubes more interesting. These often come with models intended for babies between 1-2 years old.
How much you can expect to spend on an activity cube
Small plushies for babies tend to cost between $10-$20. Plastic models range from $10-$50, and wood activity cubes cost between $20-$125.
Activity cube FAQ
How do you clean an activity cube?
A. Activity cubes can be difficult to clean because of the number of nooks and crannies. Start by wiping down the exterior with a solution made from warm water and standard dish soap. Wipe it down one more time with a damp cloth to remove as much of the soap as possible. If you have a place to do it, you can leave it outside in the sun for an hour or two to help kill off germs and bacteria you may have missed when wiping it down.
Is it OK for a child to climb on an activity cube?
A. No. Never allow children to climb or pull too hard on an activity cube. Either of these actions can lead to the activity cube falling on the child and potentially causing injury. To ensure safety, always supervise your child when they’re using their activity cube.
What’s the best activity cube to buy?

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — With his mullet flapping in the Georgia breeze, Cameron Smith made sure Scottie Scheffler didn’t run away from everyone else at the Masters.
Thanks to Smith, the leader will have to work for that green jacket.
The 28-year-old Aussie turned in a third round that didn’t seem possible at Augusta National with the unseasonably cold temperatures and strong gusts on Saturday.
Smith shot a 4-under 68 — the only score in the 60s — to pull within three shots of Scheffler and join him in the final group Sunday.
“It was really tough out there,” Smith said. “I think I did a good job of just staying within myself, staying patient with the course. Just hitting lots of quality iron shots, and the putts went in as well.”
This is not an unusual position for Smith.
In five previous Masters appearances, he has three top-10 finishes — including a tie for the runner-up spot behind Dustin Johnson in 2020.
That year, with the tournament played in the fall for the first time because of the coronavirus pandemic, Smith became the first golfer to post four straight Masters rounds in the 60s.
It wasn’t good enough to top Johnson, who romped to a record-setting, five-stroke victory with a 20-under score.
Smith had to settle for the satisfaction — or frustration — of knowing his score, which was matched by Sungjae Im, would have won the Masters outright in all but seven years.
Smith is not likely to get to 15 under this year — that would require a closing 63 — but he may not need to go so low to claim his first major championship.
He’s certainly shown the game to capture one of the biggest prizes, most notably winning this year’s Players Championship against perhaps the strongest field in golf.
“I can get it done, I guess, when I’m up against the best guys in the world,” Smith said. “It’s a good feeling to have. It’s earned. It’s not given to you.”
Time and time again, he’s demonstrated a calm demeanor that gets him through the inevitable tough patches.
Smith made a double-bogey on the very first hole of the tournament Thursday, and another that day at No. 18. In between those forgettable bookends, he strung together eight birdies for 68 that put him right in the mix.
Smith struggled to a 74 in the second round, leaving him six shots behind Scheffler, but the Aussie sliced that deficit in half with a dazzling performance Saturday.
Even in conditions that felt more like a British Open than the Masters, Smith managed to make six birdies.
His only stumbles came at No. 3, where an errant drive caused him to overshoot the green with his second shot, and at No. 16, where Smith had a chance to get up and down from the bunker but missed a slick, 5-foot putt.
“I hit a pretty nice shot, and that’s really where you try to miss it there anyway,” Smith said of that second bogey. “It’s probably the easiest bunker shot on the course. Didn’t really hit my best bunker shot, but it’s just what this course throws up at you from time to time.”
Through the first three rounds, Smith has made nine birdies on the back side.
He knows he’ll need a few more to chase down Scheffler, so look for Smith to really attack the greens once he makes the turn on Sunday.
“I think you have to stay really patient through the front. There are a couple of birdie opportunities, but I think the back nine is obviously where the tournament will be decided,” he said. “You can give yourself plenty of looks if you’re hitting it good.”
Starting three shots back against the game’s hottest player, a guy who won three of his previous five tournaments to claim the No. 1 spot in the world rankings, means Smith will have his work cut out for him.
He’s eager for the challenge.
“Hopefully everything just falls into place,” Smith said. “I can’t control what anyone else is going to do tomorrow. So just go out there and really focus on myself.”
Someone jokingly asked if this modern-day Samson might consider cutting his trademark mullet to try to throw Scheffler off his game.
You probably know the answer to that one.
“No,” Smith shot back. “Definitely not.”

Kristina Omari was 42 years old when her OB-GYN, a Black woman as well, recommended she get a hysterectomy.
Omari had dutifully attended her check-ups every year, but this was the first time the doctor had ever mentioned the presence of fibroids — noncancerous tumors growing on the wall of her uterus.
She was floored by the idea of such a drastic surgery.
"I was just surprised that through that process of going in for my annual physicals, I wasn't given more education: 'Your fibroids are located here. You may not experience symptoms, but they are growing,'" says Omari.
Instead, after the shock of hearing she might have to lose her uterus, she learned a lot more about her condition by talking to friends. Several of them had also been diagnosed with fibroids, which are a common problem, particularly among Black women. They're at higher risk of the condition and more likely to develop it at younger ages.
Many women with fibroids never notice anything amiss, but approximately 25% to 50% struggle with heavy menstrual bleeding, frequent urination, and pain, which can lead to depression, reproductive health issues, and lower work productivity. Omari's friends explained that there are an array of possible treatments, including medications and myomectomy, a surgery that removes fibroids and preserves the uterus.
When Omari went back to her OB-GYN to bring up these alternative strategies, the doctor replied, "I would just definitely, you know, at your age recommend [a] hysterectomy."
Advice like this helps explain why Black women are at least twice as likely as white women to remove their uterus through a hysterectomy. When symptoms are severe, fibroids are the leading reason for hysterectomy in the United States.
Research still cannot pinpoint why Black women are more susceptible to fibroids, but patients like Omari are questioning why they're being steered so quickly to one kind of treatment when less invasive options are available. It's the start of a grassroots movement to advocate for a different, more compassionate approach to fibroids, one that encourages the sharing of information and pushes to preserve fertility.
Dr. Octavia Cannon, past president of the American College of Osteopathic OBGYNs, specializes in treating uterine fibroids with support for those who do not want to undergo a hysterectomy. "Some people want to keep the parts that God gave them," she says.
That was the case for Omari. Luckily, thanks to her friends, she had an alternate view from her doctor's recommendation. A friend referred her to a "very respectful, thoughtful" surgeon who specialized in minimally invasive treatments. After explaining Omari's options for preserving her fertility, the surgeon removed her fibroids with "no complications."
Early detection, individualized care
Patients often come in to Cannon's practice complaining about heavy bleeding and painful cramping.
"They sometimes say they feel this mass in their belly," she explains. "They've been working out and trying to get their abdomen to be flatter, but they can't seem to make it, and they don't know why."
Many have already seen doctors who recommended a hysterectomy but didn't offer much education about the condition. So although less than 1% of uterine fibroids are cancerous, patients may worry about the word "tumor."
"All the doctor has to say is that you have tumors, and immediately, if you don't know, you're going to think it's cancer," Cannon says. That misunderstanding makes women more likely to agree to a hysterectomy, whether they've had children or not, she adds.
Cannon pays close attention to each patient's appearance and asks lots of questions to get a detailed medical history. That approach is critical, Cannon notes, because early detection of fibroids makes non-surgical treatment more feasible. Clinicians base recommendations on the number, size, type, and location of the fibroids, in addition to the severity of symptoms and the patients' fertility intentions.
While a hysterectomy may be the proper treatment for certain patients, the Food and Drug Administration recently approved a new medication to treat heavy bleeding related to fibroids, and there are other advances in the field making it possible to shrink the growths.
"There's so much that can be done now to help women who have fibroids keep their uterus," Cannon says.
The medical profession can be slow to evolve, says Dr. Erica Marsh, whose work at the University of Michigan focuses on uterine fibroids and disparities in reproductive health care. She's found that hysterectomies have been historically overused for all women, and especially those of African descent.
There's a tendency among doctors to become comfortable with a familiar treatment, and then fall back on that, rather than consider what makes the most sense given the circumstances, she says.
"Every patient has their unique set of symptoms and they have to be approached as an individual case," she says. "Every patient's goals are unique, their hopes are unique, their fears are unique."
Marsh hopes that doctors learn to listen more and take advantage of developments that broaden options, but she notes that change will be difficult without a concerted effort. "I don't know of any specific requirement or specific programming that focuses on education about fibroids in women of African descent," she says.
It's hard to quantify how many women have been rushed into unnecessarily extreme surgeries, but Cannon suspects the number is quite high. "I am willing to bet that there are hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions of women who have had hysterectomies, who are women of color, who had a doctor who didn't care and just took their uterus out before they even could blink," Cannon says.
Raising awareness and starting conversations
The impacts of these decisions shape the path of women's lives, says Cannon. She recalls crying alongside a Black patient who had felt she had no choice when a doctor surgically removed her uterus decades earlier. "She was 67 [and] still weeping about the fact that she had had no children and she had never had a husband because she felt that she wasn't a whole woman," she says.
Open conversations about fibroids and treatment options need to be happening not only in the doctors' office but also in patients' homes, Cannon says. She wishes more women were aware of their family history and understood that heavy bleeding isn't normal.
Some grassroots organizations led by Black women are stepping in to raise awareness. The White Dress Project advocates for women with fibroids and works to destigmatize the condition by providing educational and networking resources. Journalist Tanika Valbrun founded the nonprofit in 2015 after undergoing two myomectomies to remove 27 fibroids.
When she was 14 years old, Valbrun began experiencing heavy bleeding, "I could have had these tumors developing very early and I just didn't know. And the crazy thing is my mom had fibroids." Her grandmother did too. Still, they thought Valbrun was too young to have fibroids.
"We need our mothers, our grandmother to talk about this," she says. "Generational storytelling is so important.".
By sharing their experiences and proactively seeking treatment, Valbrun says, women with fibroids will be more likely to get the treatment they need. She hopes they won't be afraid to wear "the white dress" — the kind of clothing she had to give up because of her symptoms.
Speaking out also encourages much-needed funding for medical research and public education, adds Valbrun. She is optimistic that Congress will take action soon on the Stephanie Tubbs Jones Uterine Fibroid Research and Education Act of 2021, which would create new programs to disseminate information and collect data, as well as direct substantial additional resources to the National Institutes of Health.
"I absolutely feel the tide changing, where women understand that there are too many of us suffering and too many of us trying to manage life with uterine fibroids," she says.
The chorus of voices continues to expand as Black women connect online about their experiences.
Certified health coach Tanya Leake, 51, traces the beginning of her fibroid journey to 2012, when one of her previously small fibroids started to grow, causing her stomach to visibly protrude and, according to her doctor, pose a risk to her health. She first went the holistic route, and had some success shrinking her fibroid by cutting out alcohol and consuming more vegetables. But it wasn't enough.
That's when she began researching medical specialists around Atlanta, looking for a doctor who would listen to her worries and hopes around preserving her uterus. A series of appointments with four different providers only led to disappointment – they all advised her to get a hysterectomy and one doctor never followed up after receiving her MRI results.
It was only after getting recommendations from friends that she found "the one," a doctor who was skilled in less invasive forms of surgery, and gave her a myomectomy.
"If I hadn't talked to that friend, I wouldn't have found my doctor," says Leake, who detailed the four-year-long saga in a blog post on her website, EmBODY Well.
Commenters chimed in with questions about their fibroids, and Leake learned that many women had similar stories to tell, often involving doctors pushing hysterectomies.
"It just seemed like they came out of the woodwork," she says.
In response, she created "Coochie Conversations" in 2019, virtual gatherings of about 20 women discussing the challenges around seeking treatment for a variety of women's health issues, including uterine fibroids. Leake is now turning Coochie Conversations into a podcast.
Rozelle Watson, 72, like many participants, found Leake through her online presence and social network after experiencing pain in her pelvic area. Watson's gynecologist diagnosed her with a calcified one-centimeter fibroid last year. At the outset of her treatment, she worried about doctors viewing her body "as a car."
"I don't want the first thing, the first piece of conversation, [to be] removal — even if it has to be removal," she says. Watson was relieved that her doctor listened to her concerns and prescribed physical therapy, which cleared up the problem.
Seeking a doctor who honors their wishes
Demystifying fibroids and the available treatment options can also encourage women to seek out the care they need, says Alex Angrand-Robinson, 38. She had never learned much about the condition when she noticed her periods getting markedly longer right after college. So, when her doctor diagnosed fibroids and suggested a myomectomy, she obliged. Three years later, the fibroids returned, worse than before.
She worried about the possibility of another surgery, and couldn't get clear answers from doctors, who offered a jumble of confusing advice. One recommended hormonal birth control pills that caused severe abdominal cramps.
Diet adjustments helped keep her condition under control for a while. But then, Angrand-Robinson says, "Things went completely downhill." She became anemic and was easily winded simply walking to work in New York City. One day, she boarded the commuter rail from Connecticut and sat down.
"I didn't know I was bleeding. All of a sudden, I felt a gush passing through me," she says. "My entire bottom half was all blood. I thank God, to this day, that I was wearing black."
After she cleaned herself up at work, showered at the gym, and bought new clothes, she decided she couldn't go through that again. "I reached a point where I was like, I cannot keep living like this anymore," she says.
Angrand-Robinson sought out a doctor who would not just perform surgery, but would also listen to her: "I was like, listen, I need two things. Okay, number one, preserve my uterus. Because you know, I want the option of having kids. Number two, I need you to give me a bikini cut. I'm trying to wear my two pieces." To her surprise, it was no problem to honor both wishes with a second myomectomy.
She calls her 2014 surgery "the best decision I ever made." And for her wedding in 2020, she was thrilled to be wearing a white dress, "I wear white all the time. That is part of my testimony, I was never able to wear white before now," Angrand-Robinson says.
This kind of happy ending is what Valbrun hopes for more Black women struggling with fibroids, but it won't happen if they remain silent about their condition. "It's time for us to speak out and speak up and use our voice to ignite change," she says.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Dwayne Haskins only spent one season as Ohio State football’s starting quarterback but did plenty to leave behind a legacy.
Haskins rewrote the Buckeyes’ record book as a passer while also the starting point for the offensive fans watch today, headed by Heisman Trophy-level quarterbacks. Unfortunately, his life was cut short at just 24 years old on Saturday after being struck by a dump truck.
“The loss of Dwayne is beyond tragic and extremely difficult to process,” head coach Ryan Day tweeted. “For those who knew him closely, he was much more than a great football player. He had a giant heart, old soul and an infectious smile. The Ohio State community and our entire football program are heartbroken.”
As fans, former coaches, and teammates celebrate his life and mourn his loss, here’s a look at seven of Haskins’ greatest moments as Ohio State’s starting quarterback:
“I’m going to college here”
Haskins spoke his future into existence. He was an 11-year-old walking around the Woody Hayes Athletic Facility in awe of what he saw. Like many Buckeyes fans during the mid-2000s, he was fascinated with Heisman Trophy winner Troy Smith wanting to be just like him. So much so that he knew exactly where he wanted to spend his college years.
“This is awesome,” a young Haskins told his father. “I’m going to college here.”
The road there wasn’t so clean. He first committed to Maryland as a late-blooming top 100 recruit. If not for the Terrapins firing Randy Edsall, not retaining Mike Locksley and Tristan Wallace flipping to Oregon to play wide receiver, Haskins might not have flipped to Ohio State.
But those events opened the door for Haskins to fulfill his childhood dream, even if his road to finally getting on the field took a little longer.
A post-practice preview of the future
Haskins had no problem letting the world know how talented he was in a way that graciously toed the line between confident and cocky.
Sometimes it would be with his words with how he answered questions. Sometimes it would be with his facial expressions rather than what he didn’t say. Then there were times when it was happening on the other side of the field, after practice, while outside cameras just so happened to be on the indoor field.
Fans had long-awaited for the day Ohio State had a quarterback capable of pushing the ball downfield with an arm that was national championship-caliber. Haskins patiently waited for the day to show the world that he was indeed that quarterback.
On a Tuesday evening, as the Buckeyes prepared for a game against Army following a loss to Oklahoma, he offered up a preview of what that might look like. A few weeks later, he’d get to do it in a game.
Saving The Game as a Backup
Haskins spent his first two seasons in Columbus battling Joe Burrow to be J.T. Barrett’s backup. But with the Buckeyes trailing Michigan in Ann Arbor, fans got both insight into who was winning that battle behind the scenes and what the future might hold.
Barrett left the game with a knee injury late in the third quarter throwing Haskins into the game. His first drive was capped off by a one-yard run touchdown from J.K. Dobbins but flashed plenty of the redshirt freshman’s upside. He first 27-yard completely to his roommate Austin Mack on third-and-long, then scrambled for 22 yards down to the goal line.
“I love all my receivers, but I definitely have a special connection with Austin,” Haskins said. “We had to make a play, and it was one-on-one. I’ll take my boy anytime.”
OSU trailed 20-14 when Haskins entered the game but walked away with a 31-20 win in which Haskins completed all but one of his seven passes for 94 yards
“It was really unreal, honestly,” Haskins said. “At first, you’d think you’d be nervous and honestly, I wasn’t. I had the O-line, I had the receivers Billy (Price), and everybody else was behind me the whole entire way. I got the snap and moved the ball down the field play by play.”
Haskins rode that momentum into the spring, eventually winning the starting job, sending Joe Burrow to LSU, where he’d eventually win the Heisman Trophy and be the top pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.
Burrow’s success in 2019 had provided fans with the perfect barbershop discussion of if Ohio State picked the right quarterback. But back in 2018, it was clear what the answer was from the momentum Haskins stepped onto the field.
An explosive, program changing debut
Welcome to the new era of passing offenses in Columbus. Haskins took the field as Ohio State’s new QB1 and completed 22 of 30 passes for 313 yards and including a 75-yard touchdown to Terry McClaurin to open up the second half after a 70-minute weather delay.
Haskins led the Buckeyes to a 77-31 win over Oregon State on that Sept. 1 afternoon in 2018 while validating what everyone thought about what his emergence meant for the program. Gone were the days of run-first quarterbacks with, at best average arm talent.
Ryan Day came to Columbus looking to revolutionize the quarterback position, and in Haskins, he had the perfect partner to help him do so.
“This is a first start for Dwayne, and it was a good start,” Day said as interim head coach after the game. “We’ll be building on it as we go.”
A trip to Happy Valley
TCU provided the first real test of the season for Ohio State on a neutral field in Arlington, Texas, and the Buckeyes left with a 12-point win despite losing their best player Nick Bosa for the season. But Penn State would decide if a new offensive approach was actually good enough to win hardware.
There might not be a better environment to find out how good your quarterback is than a night game inside Beaver Stadium against a ranked Nittany Lions opponent. Haskins was there in 2016 as a freshman watching from the sidelines as OSU lost 24-21, unable to make an impact on the field as a backup.
“I didn’t play, but I was upset,” Haskins said ahead of the game.
Now he’d get his chance to leave his mark on a matchup that had grown accustomed to producing competitive four-quartern games. With Bosa sidelined, Chase Young emerged defensively, flashing what would go on to be a Hall of Fame-level college career. But Haskins’ 270 yards and three touchdowns spurred the 12-point comeback capped off by a 24-yard screen pass to K.J. Hill for a 27-26 win.
The (Statement) Game
Ohio State has rarely been the underdog coming into its rivalry game on the last weekend of the regular season. Jim Tressel’s arrival ins 2001 started the process of the two programs trending in different directions. Then Urban Meyer’s coming in 2012 only further widened the gap.
But the Buckeyes hadn’t been at their best in road wins over Michigan State and Maryland. Meanwhile, the Wolverines were home to the nation’s best defense and adopted the concept of a “Revenge Tour,” with OSU being the last team to check off. A trip to the Big Ten Championship game while keeping College Football Playoff hopes were still on the table for both.
What could’ve been a chance for Jim Harbaugh to get his first win in the rivalry instead turned into an explosive performance for Ohio State’s new passing attack with Day as the play-caller and an NFL arm at quarterback.
The result: 396 yards and six touchdowns — tying a school record — on 20 of 31 passing on the way to a 62-39 win.
In what would be Meyer’s final Michigan game, Haskins since the legendary coach out in style with his seventh win with a Heisman performance while also playing a hand in the emergence of wide receiver Chris Olave.
“I’m not done yet,” Haskins said after the win. “I want to be one of the best to ever do it when I’m done playing at this university. This is a dream come true for me. I have no words to say about all we’ve done this year. It’s been a dream of mine to play at this university for a while.
“To break all these records and win these games the way we’ve won these games it’s a blessing. We’re gonna put on a show next week.”
And put on a show the following week he did. His encore performance against Northwestern in the Big Ten Championship: 499 yards — a record at the time — and five touchdowns on 34 of 41 passes stamping his ticket to New York City.
“And with the 15th pick...”
Ohio State isn’t known for its NFL quarterbacks. It had been a while since Art Schlichter was the fourth pick to the Baltimore Colts in 1982. Haskins changed all of that.
He closed out his OSU career by granting Meyer his first Rose Bowl win, then Washington took him with the 15th pick in the 2019 draft four months later.
Two years later, Justin Fields followed as the 11th pick to the Chicago Bears. With how things are progressing, it’ll be C.J. Stroud’s turn next spring as one of the two favorites to be the top pick. The Kyle McCord or Devin Brown — or both — will hope to follow.
The train of first-round quarterbacks out of the Buckeyes is rolling, but the starting point will always be with Haskins as he watched from a bowling alley in his hometown in Maryland as commission Roger Goddell read off his name.
Day had a vision of turning “Quarterback U” when he arrived as an offensive coordinator in 2017. Haskins’ record-setting 2018 set all of that in motion. Without that season, Fields might not have picked Ohio State when he entered the transfer portal. Stroud may not have been so eager to join a 2020 recruiting class that already had Jack Miller, while McCord probably goes elsewhere as a five-star with plenty of options.
That’s Haskins’ legacy as a Buckeye.

Chloe x Halle both gave us fashion envy while on the scene at Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards and we’re still swooning over their latest looks!
The beauties were spotted on the orange and blue carpet of the awards each rocking individual looks with Chloe rocking a curve hugging sheer navy blue and yellow dress. As for her hair, she traded in her signature locs for big, fluffy afro look that she wore in a half up, half down style. Her sister, Halle matched her fly and donned a white dress that fit her perfectly just like a glove. Halle rocked her signature locs in a curled hairstyle for this annual event as the sister duo held hands and were all smiles as they graced the carpet of the children’s award show.

are either occurring now, or will shortly. A combination of
strong winds, low relative humidity, unseasonably dry fuels, and
warm temperatures can contribute to extreme fire behavior.

The winds return today from the south. Breezy conditions are forecasted for Sunday with gusts near 25 mph at times. The south wind helps the temperatures warm back up into the 80s today. We will see more clouds passing across the state, and by the late afternoon and early evening hours we may see a few stronger to severe storms develop as well. If the storms do become stronger to severe, gusty winds and small hail will be the main threat, as well as brief heavy downpours and lightning. The potential for showers and storms will be brief and the threat for any storms will be around 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. We will then be left with a quiet evening. For Monday through Wednesday the weather remains somewhat unsettled with a chance for showers and storms each day. Each day we also have the possibility of seeing isolated stronger to severe storms develop as well. This is all in response to an advancing cold front, which will move out by Wednesday night and leave us with clear and cooler conditions for Thursday and Friday.

SpaceX Raises Prices, Blames Inflation
For the longest time, start-up space stock SpaceX had the lowest prices in town, promising to put customer payloads in orbit for the low, low price of just $61.2 million per launch. True, in 2016, SpaceX announced a small price increase — but only to $62 million. Similarly, the cost of a Falcon Heavy (FH) ride to orbit (which was not raised back in 2016) jumped 7.8% to $97 million.

Former EastEnders star Lisa Faulkner has explained there is no tension when it comes to working with her husband, John Torode.
The actress, 50, has appeared alongside her husband on John and Lisa's Weekend Kitchen since 2019 but admits the pair don't separate their work and home life balance.
While the pair may have started working together when Lisa won Celebrity MasterChef back in 2010, they tied the knot in 2019 during an intimate ceremony at Aynhoe Park in Banbury, Oxfordshire.
Speaking exclusively to the Daily Star about Weekend Kitchen, Lisa explained: "We don't separate it on set, it's just like we're cooking in our kitchen.
"I think that's what is really funny, when we're on set cooking, we may as well be in our kitchen at home."
She continued: "Anyone that comes to our kitchen at home says 'Oh my God' if they've watched the show, they say 'it's just like being at your house.
"We just rub along nicely in the kitchen together, it's fun," Lisa said before adding: "It's hard because we shoot quite a few shows in one day but we must love doing it, they just let us go, they say 'Right, there's the stuff if you just want to plod through'."
The former Holby City star went on to say: "We just look at what we're cooking and then we just go for it, they just let us go which is lovely."
But it wasn't a difficult decision to bring their marital life onto the screen, with Lisa saying: "It was just one of those things people asked us to do.
"I said 'Absolutely, I'd love to do a cooking show with John', as long as it was authentic and not as though it was in a studio, we wanted to do it like we were at home.
"Then lockdown happened and we were at home cooking, I think it then made the show even more like our show.
"We have such a great team on that show, the producers, it's a really small group of people but they're brilliant and we love working with them – that makes it like another family atmosphere."
Lisa appeared in front of guests at The Ideal Home Show in partnership with NatWest at Olympia in London. Tickets and information for the 2023 event are available here.

Who were your mentors? Victor Tiffany, Seminole Gaming’s senior vice president of Food & Beverage.

'We welcome (you) back to the purana Pakistan,' top Opposition leader Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said on Sunday, as he took a jibe at ousted Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan following the adoption of a no-confidence vote against him.
Khan, who came to power in 2018 with promises to create a 'Naya Pakistan', was unceremoniously removed from the office, becoming the first premier in the country's history to be ousted through a no-trust motion.
Despite the government's hectic efforts to avoid voting on the no-confidence motion against Khan, the joint Opposition succeeded in its month-long efforts to oust Khan from the prime minister's office as 174 members of the 342-member National Assembly voted against him after a day of high drama.
"I would like to congratulate the whole nation and this House, as for the first time in the history of the country, a no-confidence motion has succeeded and we have made history," Bilawal said.
Speaking on the occasion, the People's Party of Pakistan chairman recalled the significance of April 10, adding that on this day, the country approved the 1973 Constitution.
"On April 10, 1986, Benazir Bhutto ended her self-imposed exile and arrived in Lahore to launch her struggle against Ziaul haq," said Bilawal as he recalled his mother.
The Pakistan Peoples Party chairman said that on April 10, 2022, the person who was declared 'selected' by the Opposition and proved himself to be an 'undemocratic burden' on the country saw the end of his rule.
'Today, on April 10, 2022, we welcome [you] back to the purana (old) Pakistan,' said Bilawal, who is likely to be appointed the next foreign minister.
Khan was dogged by claims of economic mismanagement as his government battled depleting foreign exchange reserves and double-digit inflation.
He apparently also lost the support of the powerful Army after he refused to endorse the appointment of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) spy agency chief last year.
Finally, he agreed but it soured his ties with the powerful Army, which has ruled the coup-prone country for more than half of its 75 years of existence and has hitherto wielded considerable power in the matters of security and foreign policy.
Bilwal, the lawmaker from Larkana, said that he had joined the National Assembly only three to four years ago, adding that whatever he has learned during this time is probably more than he had learnt throughout his life.
"I have a message for the Pakistani youth that they should never give up on their dreams as nothing is impossible. Democracy is the best revenge. Pakistan Zindabad," said Bilawal.
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz president Shahbaz Sharif, who is expected to be chosen as the new prime minister, said that the joint Opposition -- once it forms a government in the Centre -- would not take revenge against their political opponents.
"...we thank everyone for their sacrifices, and now, once again, a Pakistan based on Constitution and law is about to come into existence," the PML-N president told the National Assembly after Imran Khan's ouster, hoping that the alliance moves the country towards progress.
Shahbaz said this might be the first time in Pakistan that the country's daughters and sisters were sent to prison, but maintained that he wanted to forget the past and move forward.
"When the time comes, we will speak in detail, but we want to heal the wounds of the nation; we will not send innocent people to jails, and we will not take revenge," Shabaz said, noting that the law will take its course without interference.
"Neither I, nor Bilawal, and nor will Maulana Fazlur Rehman will interfere. Law will be upheld and we will respect the judiciary," Shahbaz said.
Maryam Sharif, the daughter of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, also hailed the verdict and tweeted, 'The nightmare for my beloved Pakistan is over. Time to heal and repair. Pakistan Zindabad Nawaz Sharif Zindabad.'

A huge match between the two clubs that are fighting for the English Premier League title is set for Sunday in Manchester, as Liverpool looks to leap frog the defending champions, Manchester City.
Manchester City had an insanely hot start to the season, going 6-1-2, to catapult themselves to the top of the tables. While they have been holding that position for most of the season, ManCity’s spread has slowly shrunk thanks to a mix of up-and-down play, and a surge from Liverpool. They now only lead the Reds by a single point, thanks to a stretch that has seen City go 3-1-1, including a 2-0 win over relegation-bound Burnley last Saturday.
- Watch the Premier League on FuboTV (7-day free trial) and Peacock
Liverpool has the fewest losses among any team in the EPL this season, with their last of their two defeats coming against Leicester City back on December 28. Since then, they drew Chelsea, before arriving to Manchester on a 10-match win streak. Their offense has been key as well, as they have been held to just one goal twice during this stretch.
This will be the 219th meeting between the two clubs, with Liverpool holding a 105-58-55 record over Manchester City, though Liverpool has only been victorious once in the past eight meetings.

Masters 2022: Tiger Woods struggles to his worst-ever round at Augusta National
The worst prior Masters round for Woods was a 77 he shot in the third round of his 1996 Masters debut as an amateur.
Augusta: Tiger Woods fired the worst score of his Masters career at Augusta National on Saturday, shooting a six-over par 78 in the third round while testing his limits in an amazing comeback from severe leg injuries.
The 15-time major champion finished 54 holes on seven-over 223 and walked off the course 18 strokes adrift of leader Scottie Scheffler, his dream of a sixth green jacket in his return scuttled by stark reality.
"I just could not get a feel for getting comfortable with the ball," Woods said. "Posture, feel, my right hand, my release, I just couldn't find it.
"Trying different things, trying to find it, trying to get something, taking practice strokes and just trying to feel the swing and the putter head, trying to get anything, and nothing seemed to work."
The worst prior Masters round for Woods was a 77 he shot in the third round of his 1996 Masters debut as an amateur.
Returning to top-level competition only 14 months after a car crash that threatened his life, Woods and his medical-miracle fightback have been a major focus of the event, spectators lining the course to cheer him more than even the tournament leaders.
Woods fired 71 and 74 to make the cut but struggled through cold and windy conditions in the third round with five bogeys, two double bogeys and three birdies -- including bogeys at 16 and 17 and a double bogey at 18.
"The conditions were tough," Woods said. "It has just been blustery all day. You add in the temperature difference, it was cold starting out. The ball wasn't going very far.
"I had a tough time. I felt like I didn't really hit it that bad, but I had four three-putts and a four-putt.
"It's just like I hit 1,000 putts out there on the greens. Obviously it affected the score. Take those away and I have normal two-putts, I made even par for the day."
He actually only made 36 putts but after no three-putt bogeys in the first two rounds he had four plus a four-putt bogey and two others that might as well have been.
"As many putts as I had, you would think I would have figured it out somewhere along the line," Woods said. "But it just didn't happen."
Woods was hospitalised for weeks and unable to walk for months after a February 2021 rollover car crash before battling his way back through rehabilitation to end a 17-month hiatus this week, fighting off pain with every step over hilly Augusta National.
Striding through a stamina test over the 7,510-yard layout, the 46-year-old legend played 18 holes for a third consecutive day for the first time since the accident and found his back stiffer than usual in the chilly weather.
"It's not as limber and as loose as it normally is, that's for sure," Woods said.
'Never give up'
Even faced with his worst tour of the iconic venue in 24 starts, Woods kept his grit and determination about continuing his comeback.
"Never give up. Always chase after your dreams," Woods said. "I fight each and every day.
"Each and every day is a challenge. Each and every day presents its own different challenges for all of us. I wake up and start the fight all over again."
Woods is treated with ice baths and physiotherapy after every round to reduce swelling and then get him prepared to compete at a top level.
He was hoping for a record-tying sixth Masters title and 83rd career US PGA victory to break his deadlock for the record with Sam Snead.
Woods has not indicated whether or not he might continue his comeback at other majors this year. He won major titles at Southern Hills, where May's PGA Championship will be staged, and at St. Andrews, where the British Open is set for July.
Woods has slipped to 973 in world rankings but will leap hundreds of spots next week just by making the Masters cut.

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. – South Carolina Highway Patrol Commander Col. Chris. Williamson ’85 – the first African American to hold that distinction – was recently recognized by Fayetteville State University for his outstanding service and dedication to his alma mater, local communities and the state of South Carolina.
“It was an indeed an honor to be recognized by Chancellor Allison along with faculty and staff for my achievements as a Bronco alumnus,” Williamson said. “I look forward to working with the University as a part of the Board of Visitors to build on the success that has been started by Chancellor Allison.”
Following a warm welcome and introduction by Chancellor Darrell T. Allison, the Honorable Glenn Adams, chairman of the FSU Board of Trustees and Cumberland County Board of Commissioners issued an official university proclamation highlighting Williamson’s extensive service and contributions. Fayetteville City Council member Shakeyla Ingram also participated in the celebration.
“Col. Williamson models what it means to live a life of service to others. He is a steadfast leader and trailblazer in an often dangerous and thankless profession, yet he continues his missio of protecting the citizens of South Carolina all the while continuously supporting the university,” said Allison. “FSU is proud to honor him.”

A 29-year patrol veteran, Williamson has held the commander position since June 2017. Prior to his appointment, Williamson was promoted to captain in 2003 and jointed headquarters in 2011. He assisted with critical issues such as the 1,000-Year Flood in 2015, Hurricane Matthew and events following the Emanuel Church shootings in Charleston.
Williamson was instrumental in important infrastructure and technological advances within the unit. As lieutenant colonel, he managed day-to-day operations of the South Carolina Highway Patrol with statewide jurisdiction. Additionally, he oversaw the administrative, operational and support functions of the patrol associated with enforcement and public safety.
Williamson is a native of Darlington. He and his wife Deloris are the parents of two daughters, Krissy and Daysha, and are proud grandparents.
In August 2021, the university recognized North Carolina Highway Patrol Commander Freddy Johnson, also an FSU graduate.

Hall visits Iowa spring practice
In-state safety Aidan Hall was back in Iowa City on Saturday to watch the Hawkeyes at work in spring practice and catch up with the Iowa coaches, who have remained in close contact.
"We went to the practice at around 9:30 and it went till about 11:30," said Hall. "It was fun being able to be there in person and be able to connect with the coaches and see how they coach their players."
"After that I did a photoshoot," Hall said. "Then finally I went and had a meeting with Coach Parker. We pretty much just went over film and talked through it for about 45 minutes."
The feedback from Iowa defensive coordinator Phil Parker, who also coaches the secondary, was very positive and he plans to evaluate Hall further in the coming months.
"They told me that they are super interested," said Hall. "They think I could play all three of their safety positions. They also would like to get me back up for camp this summer."
Currently, Hall holds scholarship offers from Army, South Dakota, South Dakota State, Northern Iowa, and Western Illinois with interest from several others as he continues to sort through the recruiting process.
"I have visited Kansas State, UNI, NDSU, and now Iowa twice," Hall said. "I’m not really too sure what will be next, but I think I might take a visit to Iowa State sometime soon."
As a junior, Hall finished the season with 777 yards rushing, 755 yards receiving, and 24 touchdown on offense to go along with 29.5 tackles and three interceptions on defense.
See highlights from Hall's junior year in the video below.

MEXICO CITY — Mexicans vote Sunday on whether their popular president should end his six-year term barely midway through or continue to the end.
Strangely, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador was the one who pushed for the first-ever referendum of its kind in Mexico.
It was considered a safe bet. The referendum is only binding if at least 40% of the country's electorate votes — something experts believe unlikely — and López Obrador has maintained approval ratings around 60%.
With that in mind critics have decried the exercise as a waste of money — almost $80 million — and just a way for López Obrador to rally his base midway through his time in office. For someone known as an eternal campaigner the expected reaffirmation of support makes sense, but for a president outspoken about austerity it raised questions.
Some in the opposition have called for voters to boycott. López Obrador's Morena party has been active in encouraging the president's base to vote. The president has faced criticism that government officials and resources have promoted the referendum.
How many voters will turn out has been the overriding question.
Patricio Morales, an analyst at Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education, said the lack of awareness about the referendum and potential disinterest among voters could weigh on turnout.
He noted that only 7% of voters participated in another referendum last year asking whether former presidents should be prosecuted.
The referendum fueled a feud between López Obrador and Mexico's respected elections authority. Lawmakers from his party cut the National Electoral Institute's budget and the institute said it didn't have the money to pull off the referendum originally estimated to cost estimate more than $191 million. It refused to move ahead until the Supreme Court ruled that it must. Adjustments lowered expected the cost to $78.2 million.

Zacks Investment Research lowered shares of QUALCOMM (NASDAQ:QCOM – Get Rating) from a buy rating to a hold rating in a report published on Wednesday, Zacks.com reports. The firm currently has $155.00 price objective on the wireless technology company’s stock.
According to Zacks, “Qualcomm has completed the acquisition of Arriver from SSW Partners. The buyout will bolster its ability to deliver fully integrated Advanced Driver Assistance System solutions to automakers. The company is focused on retaining its leadership in 5G and the chipset market, delivering low-power resilient multi-gigabit connectivity with unprecedented range and best-in-class security. It is witnessing healthy traction in EDGE networking solutions that help to transform connectivity in business enterprises, homes and smart factories. However, the company faces intense competition from low-cost chip manufacturers. High research and development costs are expected to dent margins, while global chip shortage due to supply-chain disruptions is a headwind. It is susceptible to risks arising from a decline in handset shipments, especially in China.”

KeyCorp increased their price target on QUALCOMM from $220.00 to $230.00 and gave the stock an overweight rating in a research note on Thursday, February 3rd.

Pope Francis denounces ‘folly of war’ in Palm Sunday homily
VATICAN CITY (AP) — Celebrating Palm Sunday Mass before crowds in St. Peter’s Square for the first time since the pandemic, Pope Francis has said that the “folly of war” leads people to commit “senseless acts of cruelty.” Francis did not explicitly cite Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but the reference was clear and he has repeatedly denounced the war and the suffering brought to innocent people. Traditionally, the pope leads a Palm Sunday procession through St. Peter’s Square before celebrating Mass. Francis has been suffering from a strained ligament in his right knee that makes him limp, and he was driven in a black car to the altar, which he then reached leaning on an aide.

Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], April 10 (ANI): Karnataka Home Minister Araga Jnanendra on Sunday said that a proper CID team has been constituted to investigate the alleged fraud in the recruitment process for the position of sub-inspector.
According to the home minister, an exam has been conducted for the recruitment process of 545 sub-inspectors.
"We have got some information from the public regarding the fraud in the recruitment process. We have appointed a CID team to look into the investigation of the matter," said Jnanendra in a statement.
"An FIR has been registered in Kalburgi Chowk police station. As per the evidence, one person has been taken into custody," he added.
The home minister said that the accused has been identified as Veeresh and has been taken into custody. He was also a candidate in the recruitment process. Allegedly, he scored 100 marks in the exam after attempting questions for 21 marks.
"We will be investigating the OMR sheet of the candidate and strict action will be taken against those who try to take the law into their hands," said the home minister.
The home minister further criticised former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah for calling him incompetent.
"I don't need a certificate from Siddaramaiah. How many deaths, and murders took place in his regime we know. They have taken back cases registered against PFI, and SDPI. So, we are well aware of his activities," added the home minister. (ANI)

Man suspected of burying mom, sister in backyard arrested
LYONS, Ill. (AP) - A man suspected of concealing the deaths of his mother and sister has been arrested on felony charges nearly a year after their bodies were found buried in the backyard of their suburban Chicago house.
Lyons Police Chief Thomas Herion said Thursday that 45-year-old Michael Lelko will be formally charged with two felony counts of concealment of a death. Herion said Lelko also could face federal charges in connection to his alleged cashing of his mother’s Social Security checks for years after she died.
In August, police discovered the bodies of 79-year-old Jean Lelko and 44-year-old Jennifer Lelko. Both bodies had been buried in plastic tubs that had been sealed with duct tape, according to the Associated Press. Police say Lelko told them his mother died in 2015 and his sister died in 2019.
Herion said charges were not filed for several months because the bodies were not positively identified until this year. Autopsies could not determine the cause of death for either woman.
Herion said Michael Lelko’s 41-year-old brother, John Lelko, remains the subject of an investigation, the AP reports. He could face obstruction charges because he initially told police that his mother and sister were alive and living elsewhere, even though he knew they were both dead.

Pakistan's PM vows to fight on after Parliament ousts him
ISLAMABAD (AP) - The ouster of Prime Minister Imran Khan in a parliamentary no-confidence vote early Sunday set Pakistan on an uncertain political path, with Khan calling on supporters to take to the streets in protest and the political opposition preparing to install his replacement.
Khan was brought down after a day of drama and often vitriolic remarks. His supporters accused Washington of orchestrating his ouster and his party walked out of Parliament shortly before the vote. In the end, 174 lawmakers in the 342-seat Parliament voted to depose him, two more than the required simple majority.
Khan´s successor is to be elected and sworn in by Parliament on Monday. The leading contender is Shahbaz Sharif, a brother of disgraced former prime minister Nawaz Sharif.
Shahbaz Sharif heads the largest party in a diverse alliance of opposition factions that span the spectrum from the left to radically religious. Khan's nominee for prime minister will be his foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi.
Khan's ouster comes amid his cooling relations with the powerful military and an economy struggling with high inflation and a plummeting Pakistani rupee. The opposition has charged Khan´s government with economic mismanagement.
Khan has claimed the U.S. worked behind the scenes to bring him down, purportedly because of Washington's displeasure over his independent foreign policy choices, which often favor China and Russia. He has occasionally defied America and stridently criticized America's post 9/11 war on terror. Khan said America was deeply disturbed by his visit to Russia and his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Feb. 24, the start of the devastating war in Ukraine.

The U.S. State Department has denied his allegations.
Elizabeth Threlkeld, a Pakistan expert at the U.S.-based The Stimson Center, said that even as prime minister, Khan often played the role of opposition leader.
"His removal would see him to a role he knows well, armed with a narrative of victimhood from unfounded claims of international interference," she said. "His base will remain loyal, though I expect both his controversial attempt to remain in power and reduced military backing will lose him less committed supporters."
Khan would seem to have few options going forward.
General elections are not scheduled before August 2023. Even if the new prime minister favors early elections, this would likely not happen before October. The Pakistan Election Commission, which oversees polls, told the Supreme Court last week it had still to finish re-aligning constituencies in line with the results of a 2017 census before polls could be held.
In the aftermath of Sunday's vote, giant steel containers stacked on top of each other blocked main roads leading to Parliament and to the diplomatic enclave in the capital of Islamabad. Khan has called on his supporters to gather late Sunday, after the end of the daily dawn-to-dusk fast during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
Michael Kugelman, deputy director of the Asia Program at the Washington-based Wilson Center, predicted a turbulent time ahead for Pakistan.
"Khan´s defeat would also leave Pakistan a bitterly partisan and divided place. He has not only intensified political rivalries, he has also defied and alienated key entities like the Army Chief and Pakistan´s foreign office," said Kugelman. "It will take time for the country to pick up the pieces, and the coming months will be politically turbulent."
Sunday's vote capped a week-long constitutional crisis that had mesmerized the nation. It began last Sunday when Khan sought to sidestep the no confidence vote by dissolving Parliament and calling early elections, It was then left to the Supreme Court to sort, eventually ruling to reinstate Parliament and demand the vote be he.
Khan has won international praise for his handling of the COVID pandemic opting for so called "smart lockdowns" where outbreaks occurred rather than countrywide closures that helped protect some industries like the construction sector. His reputation for fighting corruption has brought a record $21 billion in deposits from overseas Pakistanis.
But he has not been able to overcome an increasingly strained relationship with the army, which has ruled Pakistan directly for more than half its 75-year history and indirectly from the sidelines when civilian governments ruled.
Khan's opponents say the army helped him win the 2018 elections after it had fallen out with Nawaz Sharif, who was convicted of corruption after being named in the so-called Panama Papers. These papers are a collection of leaked secret financial documents showing how some of the world´s richest hide their money and involving a global law firm based in Panama.
Pakistan´s Supreme Court disqualified Sharif from holding office. He lives in London in self-imposed exile after being convicted in a Pakistani court of corruption. He was sentenced to 10 years in jail.
Fissures in Khan's relationship with the army began last November after he squabbled with the powerful Army Chief Gen. Qamar Javed Bajwa over the appointment of the new intelligence chief.
Last weekend, Bajwa appeared to distance himself from Khan´s anti-U.S. attacks saying Pakistan wants good relations with Washington, its largest export trading partner and with China. He condemned Russia´s war in Ukraine.

Late sister's life-saving advice: treat depression like the disease it is
'Without that gentle nudge … I honestly don't know where I would be today'
This First Person column is the experience of Lynne Bereza, a Portage la Prairie mother and grandmother, who has lived with depression since her teens. For more information about CBC's First Person stories, please see the FAQ.
I've taken a small pink pill every day for the past 27 years — exactly half my life.
My struggle started well before that, though. Throughout junior high and high school, I often felt hopeless and at times had suicidal thoughts.
When I was 16, I told my doctor. She scribbled the name of a counsellor on a piece of paper and sent me on my way. I felt dismissed and I never went to the counsellor. I was not comfortable talking to a stranger about my feelings.
Broaching it with my doctor had taken every ounce of bravery I had. None of my friends or family knew. I was too ashamed to tell anybody.
The thing about depression is you're least able to ask for help when you're in the throes of it. I had summoned the courage but didn't get what I needed; thus I was left believing it was just something I had to live with, no matter how painful.
Getting married and having kids in my early 20s compounded my depression. I was busy and broke and exhausted but figured, what new mom isn't?
In early 1994, my sister, who was 10 years older than me, invited me out for coffee. She was noticeably happier, calmer, and more 'herself' than I'd seen her for a long time. She had started taking a daily antidepressant, she said, and felt it might help me, too.
I slowly began to feel a sense of well-being I couldn't remember having since childhood.- Lynne Bereza
We both believed our depression was hereditary, but she was at a place in her life where she was ready to seek help.
I wasn't there yet. My response was basically "nope, not for me." She asked me to give it some thought, but didn't pressure me.
Not long after, she was killed in a car accident. What followed was the worst year of my life.
Grieving for my sister, helping my brother-in-law care for my niece and nephew (who were six and four at the time), worrying about my parents, trying to raise my own kids and working full-time was hell. The days went by in a blur.
It wasn't until about a year and a half later that I gathered the courage to ask my doctor about medication.
The overwhelming sadness, anger and feelings of hopelessness simply weren't lifting at all. I knew it was more than grief I was feeling. I had even tried counselling, but my counsellor and I didn't connect, so medication felt like my last hope.
Thankfully, my doctor understood that grief and depression are two different things. He also reassured me that I wasn't alone — he had many patients just like me who were finding relief. He prescribed a drug used to treat depression and anxiety.
After a couple of weeks, I slowly began to feel a sense of well-being I couldn't remember having since childhood. I no longer woke up in the morning with a dark cloud hanging over my head.
Feeling joy
To someone who has never suffered from depression: that dark cloud is omnipresent. You get up, face the day, go through the motions … but there is no relief from the unrelenting sense of doom.
I still grieved for my sister and what might have been, every day. I still do. But I was also able to feel moments of peace and even joy, for the first time in many years.
And yet, from time to time I've tried to wean myself off of my medication. I still felt that I shouldn't need to take a pill every day just to feel 'myself.' It's part of the stigma that surrounds mental illness.
Each time I stopped was, predictably, a disaster. After a time, the feelings of heaviness, of sadness, of dread, would inevitably return.
My doctor would encourage me to get back on my medication, patiently explaining — again — that my depression is a disease that requires treatment just like any other.
Eventually I came to believe him.
Please, if you are feeling like things will never change, consider this your invitation to coffee.- Lynne Bereza
Sadly, there are many, many people who don't have the kind of support I had. Or they feel dismissed by someone they trusted and are afraid to seek help again. Or they don't have a family member to take the first steps and encourage them to follow. Or they stop their medication too suddenly and relapse into even more crushing depression. Or they can't find a medication that works for them. Or they are ashamed. Or they are simply too sad and tired to ask for help. Or maybe they feel things will never change.
I often think that my sister's greatest gift to me was that invitation to coffee. What if she hadn't told me? Without that gentle nudge, from someone I trusted implicitly, I honestly don't know where I would be today.
Please, if you are feeling like things will never change, consider this your invitation to coffee.
There are many of us who are living happy, productive lives because we have accepted that we suffer from an illness, and we are treating it.
You aren't alone.

Bradley Airport anticipates passenger surge
Windsor Locks, Conn. (WTIC Radio) -Passenger traffic at Bradley Airport is expected to increase the most over the next ten days, since the start of the Covid 19 Pandemic, officials said.
Spokesman Ryan Tenny said the best advice is to plan ahead. "We strongly encourage everyone to be at their ticket counter at least ninety minutes prior to your scheduled departure."
Other advice includes confirm your flight before you arrive at the airport, plan for parking by visiting the airport website on the latest availability and wear a face covering, required by federal mandate.
For passenger efficiency, Tenny said it's best to follow TSA guidelines, including having your credentials ready.
Tenny also advises passengers to have empty water bottles. "You can fill the bottles after security, so it doesn't slow the screening process."
He said extra staff will be on hand to expedite the increased traffic flow.

Travel restrictions are the most relaxed they've been since the beginning of the Coronavirus pandemic in March 2020 and people are jumping at the chance of a trip abroad.
However, some holidaymakers have been caught out by a passport rule that came into force as a result of Brexit, reports the Liverpool Echo. Especially as advice from the UK Government and major airlines is not consistent.
When the UK was still part of the European Union (EU), your passport simply had to be in date in order to travel across the continent. However, since Brexit, rules around how long your passport needs to be valid have changed.
With summer coming, now is a good time to check the expiry date on your passport, especially as there have been reports of people waiting 10 weeks or more for a passport renewal to arrive. A tweet from the Passport Office on April 4 said: "Is your passport due to expire? You'll need to allow up to 10 weeks to process your passport application when applying from the UK."
The UK Government website states that UK citizens should have a passport with an expiry date 'valid for at least three months after the day you plan to leave.' However, travel association ABTA, warns that how much time needs to be left on your passport depends on where you're travelling to.
It also seems that the required length of time left on your passport depends on which airline you choose to fly with. British Airways, EasyJet and Ryanair all state different policies.
This has led some people to take to social media to get some clarity and ask airlines whether they will be allowed to fly. One asked Ryanair if they'll be fine to travel as the airline stated six months till expiration is required while the Government website says three months.
Another asked EasyJet if she would be able to travel to Portugal with the date six months prior to her passport expiring falling during her trip to Portugal. If you're finding yourself similarly confused about the rules regarding passport expiration dates, take a look at the information below.

How long should you have left on your passport?
If your passport expiration date is coming up, you could be denied entry into the country you're visiting. The Post Office website states: "While most countries such as Australia, Canada and the USA, just need your passport to be valid for the length of your stay, other countries such as China, Thailand, Egypt and Turkey need at least six months. You need to have at least six months left on an adult or child passport to travel to most countries in Europe (not including Ireland).
"In general, many countries that require a visa to enter will require at least six months validity on your passport when entering the country, so make sure you find out whether your passport has long enough before it expires before you travel."
Passport rules for different countries
All countries will have their own rules concerning passport validity and expiration rules. Here’s a list of the most common ones:
Australia - Your passport should be valid for the duration of your stay.
Barbados - Your passport should be valid for the duration of your stay.
Canada - Your passport should be valid for the duration of your stay, but if you have less than six months of validity it may take longer to pass through immigration control.
China - Your passport should have at least six months of validity.

For UK passport holders travelling to the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland, please note that on your day of travel you'll need your passport to both: Have at least six months left on it (the requirement of most European countries is to have a minimum of three months left on your passport on the day after your intended departure from the EU); and GBR Passports must be no more than 10 years old on the date of travel
British Airways
If you're travelling on an international flight, you’ll need a passport or an equivalent travel document that is valid for the full duration of your trip. Your children will also need their own passports, even infants under two years.

Aaron Judge demanded more millions of salary from the Yankees
Prior to the start of the Opening Game enters yankees and Red Sox, all attention was on Aaron Judgewho was negotiating at the last minute a possible Contract extensionwhich in the end was not carried out since the New York directive did not reach the price.
Later, general manager Brian Cashman summoned journalists to a press conference to detail what happened in the failed negotiations between the Judge and the New York organization. Judge ended up turning down a $213.5 million, seven-year contract, or an annual salary of $30.5 million.
According to sources at NJ.com’s Brendan Kuty, the reason Aaron Judge didn’t agree to sign the Bombers’ offer was because he wanted to be guaranteed more years of service, along with a higher salary. According to these versions, the lanky 29-year-old slugger wanted a deal for minimum nine seasons and US$36 million salary annually.
According to Cashman, both sides would resume negotiations sometime next winter when Judge could hear offers from each of the 30 major league teams as a free agent.
In six MLB seasons in pinstripes, Judge has hit .276/386/.554 with 158 home runs and 366 RBIs.

ISLAMABAD — The ouster of Prime Minister Imran Khan in a parliamentary no-confidence vote early Sunday set Pakistan on an uncertain political path, with Khan calling on supporters to take to the streets in protest and the political opposition preparing to install his replacement.
Khan was brought down after a day of drama and often vitriolic remarks. His supporters accused Washington of orchestrating his ouster and his party walked out of Parliament shortly before the vote. In the end, 174 lawmakers in the 342-seat Parliament voted to depose him, two more than the required simple majority.
Khan's successor is to be elected and sworn in by Parliament on Monday. The leading contender is Shahbaz Sharif, a brother of disgraced former prime minister Nawaz Sharif.
Shahbaz Sharif heads the largest party in a diverse alliance of opposition factions that span the spectrum from the left to radically religious. Khan's nominee for prime minister will be his foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi.
Khan's ouster comes amid his cooling relations with the powerful military and an economy struggling with high inflation and a plummeting Pakistani rupee. The opposition has charged Khan's government with economic mismanagement.
Khan has claimed the U.S. worked behind the scenes to bring him down, purportedly because of Washington's displeasure over his independent foreign policy choices, which often favor China and Russia. He has occasionally defied America and stridently criticized America's post 9/11 war on terror. Khan said America was deeply disturbed by his visit to Russia and his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Feb. 24, the start of the devastating war in Ukraine.
The U.S. State Department has denied his allegations.
Elizabeth Threlkeld, a Pakistan expert at the U.S.-based The Stimson Center, said that even as prime minister, Khan often played the role of opposition leader.
"His removal would see him to a role he knows well, armed with a narrative of victimhood from unfounded claims of international interference," she said. "His base will remain loyal, though I expect both his controversial attempt to remain in power and reduced military backing will lose him less committed supporters."
Khan would seem to have few options going forward.
General elections are not scheduled before August 2023. Even if the new prime minister favors early elections, this would likely not happen before October. The Pakistan Election Commission, which oversees polls, told the Supreme Court last week it had still to finish re-aligning constituencies in line with the results of a 2017 census before polls could be held.
In the aftermath of Sunday's vote, giant steel containers stacked on top of each other blocked main roads leading to Parliament and to the diplomatic enclave in the capital of Islamabad. Khan has called on his supporters to gather late Sunday, after the end of the daily dawn-to-dusk fast during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
Michael Kugelman, deputy director of the Asia Program at the Washington-based Wilson Center, predicted a turbulent time ahead for Pakistan.
"Khan's defeat would also leave Pakistan a bitterly partisan and divided place. He has not only intensified political rivalries, he has also defied and alienated key entities like the Army Chief and Pakistan's foreign office," said Kugelman. "It will take time for the country to pick up the pieces, and the coming months will be politically turbulent."
Sunday's vote capped a week-long constitutional crisis that had mesmerized the nation. It began last Sunday when Khan sought to sidestep the no confidence vote by dissolving Parliament and calling early elections, It was then left to the Supreme Court to sort, eventually ruling to reinstate Parliament and demand the vote be he.
Khan has won international praise for his handling of the COVID pandemic opting for so called "smart lockdowns" where outbreaks occurred rather than countrywide closures that helped protect some industries like the construction sector. His reputation for fighting corruption has brought a record $21 billion in deposits from overseas Pakistanis.
But he has not been able to overcome an increasingly strained relationship with the army, which has ruled Pakistan directly for more than half its 75-year history and indirectly from the sidelines when civilian governments ruled.
Khan's opponents say the army helped him win the 2018 elections after it had fallen out with Nawaz Sharif, who was convicted of corruption after being named in the so-called Panama Papers. These papers are a collection of leaked secret financial documents showing how some of the world's richest hide their money and involving a global law firm based in Panama.
Pakistan's Supreme Court disqualified Sharif from holding office. He lives in London in self-imposed exile after being convicted in a Pakistani court of corruption. He was sentenced to 10 years in jail.
Fissures in Khan's relationship with the army began last November after he squabbled with the powerful Army Chief Gen. Qamar Javed Bajwa over the appointment of the new intelligence chief.
Last weekend, Bajwa appeared to distance himself from Khan's anti-U.S. attacks saying Pakistan wants good relations with Washington, its largest export trading partner and with China. He condemned Russia's war in Ukraine.

Ukrainian refugees in Poland get help for trauma you can’t see — mental health
By Dana Bash and Abbie Sharpe, CNN
Eight-year-old Yana was going to gymnastics class six days a week at home near Odessa, Ukraine.
Now, she can only practice by herself on a patch of open floor in a refugee center here in the Polish capital.
Yana is one of millions of Ukrainian children coping with change: forced to leave her home, her passions and her father behind in the aftermath of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s brutal invasion of their country.
“There were explosions there and stuff like that,” she said quietly, recalling that she heard more than she actually saw.
“I’m just not afraid of it very much,” she added.
Her mother, Liudmyla Bats, said Yana is very strong and said she hopes that when her daughter tells her she is doing OK, she really means it.
But sitting in her bathrobe after a welcome shower at the Arena Ursynów, a sports complex now used to temporarily house Ukrainian refugees, Bats talked about her own trauma.
“Even here, every time when I hear some sounds and when the airplane is flying, I’m afraid,” she said.
Bats and her children are benefiting from the well-documented generosity of the Poles — shelter, food, even a table well-stocked with pencils and paper for Yana to use while attending virtual school on her phone.
But less known is the help Polish leaders and private organizations are providing Ukrainian refugees dealing with what we can’t see: the mental health of the mostly women and children who crossed the border.
More than 2.5 million Ukrainian refugees have fled to Poland, and, according to the Warsaw Mayor Rafal Trzaskowski, there are some 300,000 in the capital city alone. He said 100,000 are children and already 15,000 Ukrainian refugees are enrolled in Polish schools — some with his own children.
“I talk to my kids because they attend Warsaw schools with Ukrainian kids. They say that those kids are incredibly resilient, but you never know what’s beneath the surface. And, of course, this is one of the major problems. I mean, health care — psychological health,” the mayor said.
Trzaskowski said he has temporarily directed many of the city’s psychiatrists, psychologists and other mental health social services to help the Ukrainian refugees.
Private organizations are prioritizing the care too — leaving leaflets at train stations for arriving refugees to see.
“We are all traumatized, especially after what we’ve seen in the past days on television. And some of those kids were just escaping bombs. Some of them were seeing members of their family being killed. I mean, this is something that we have problems imagining,” Trzaskowski said. “We have a lot of traumatized kids in Warsaw who need help.”
“My friends from Ukraine tell me that they can focus on fighting and rebuilding their country because we take care of their families and their kids,” he added, referring to the men who stayed behind.
No longer an afterthought
The emphasis on mental health is a very modern approach to caring for war refugees. It wasn’t that long ago that it was an afterthought, if a thought at all.
At a Jewish Hillel Center in downtown Warsaw, Milena Konovalova leads group therapy sessions for refugee women. She recently fled Ukraine herself.
“Every woman needs another woman who can listen to her,” she said. “Before the war in Ukraine, I worked as a women’s psychologist. I worked only with women, and I understand how important it is for women to talk, to talk to other women.”
Konovalova is not Jewish, but the Hillel Center is one of many organizations opening their doors for all Ukrainians with any kind of need.
During a recent session, Konovalova and five other women sat around a table covered with rose petals in what she calls a women’s circle.
The lyrics of the song “Be Yourself” by Peruquois filled the room as the women took turns lighting candles. Emotions rushed to the surface. Tears flowed as the women connected and shared their experiences.
While the women talked, their children played in a makeshift day care center on the other side of the room. Some of them were too young to understand, happy just to be playing with toys and other children.
But some of them do understand. Young girls like eight-year-old Antonina, who said she knows that she’s in Poland because of the war.
“Because Putin has something in his head,” she explained.
It turns out not all grown-ups make good decisions, we said during our conversation.
“When it comes to Putin, yes,” Antonina shot back.
The refugee children, just like children in the United States, were already dealing with mental health challenges from being isolated during almost two years of the pandemic. Now, having left the warm comforts of home, not to mention their fathers who stayed in Ukraine to fight, any move toward a pre-pandemic normalcy has been cruelly interrupted.
Their mothers across the room are seeking emotional support to help themselves and put them in a better place to address their family’s needs and traumas.
“When we talk to other women, we hear that we have the same problems, and when we see our situation from a distance, we can solve it,” explained Konovalova.
“The most prominent trauma is that women don’t see tomorrow. They are not sure, they doubt, they are frightened or scared, they don’t feel protected anywhere,” she said. “And it’s important to convey to them that there is tomorrow, that they are in a warm and safe place, that the children will have porridge tomorrow, and she will be able to tuck him in, go for a walk with the child. It’s important to know that tomorrow will happen.”

Going ahead with stage 3 tax cuts would be irresponsible
Ross Gittins
Economics EditorWhichever side wins the election will inherit a serious budget problem, one caused to a large extent by a single, irresponsible decision: to legislate years ahead of time for hugely expensive tax cuts in July 2024. Turns out they will be “unfunded”.
No one who professes to be terribly worried about the federal government’s huge and still-growing debt is genuine in their concern unless they’re prepared to pay a price for it: forgoing the tax cut that can no longer be afforded. Allowing the cut to happen will add significantly to the budget deficit and the further growth in our debt.
People who own a business that’s running at a loss, so to speak, shouldn’t be awarding themselves a pay rise that adds to the annual loss.
Putting it more formally, it was fully justified for the Rudd government to borrow heavily to cover the temporary measures that kept us out of the global financial crisis, just as it was fully justified for the Morrison government to borrow heavily to cover the temporary measures that saved life and limb during the worst of the pandemic.
But there is no justification for allowing the lasting spending increases and tax cuts made at the same time as the temporary measures to continue unfunded year after year, long after the crisis has passed and the economy has recovered.
A government that, having incurred so much debt through no fault of its own, continues to run a residual, “structural” deficit every year simply because it lacks the political courage either to make sweeping cuts in government spending or to ask the electorate to cover the full cost of services it doesn’t want cut by paying for them with higher taxes, simply cannot claim to be economically responsible.
It’s following a lax and unnecessarily risky practice should, say, a heavy fall in our export prices, cause the (nominal) economy to grow more slowly than interest rates, leaving us exposed when the next global crisis comes along.
That’s hardly fiscal conservatism. But the coming big tax cuts take us to a whole new level of irresponsibility.
Not only is the government afraid to ask voters to pay for the government services they demand, it’s trying to bribe its way to election by offering to make an unfunded cut in the tax they do pay, thus adding to the structural deficit and continuing growth in the debt, in both dollar terms and relative to the size of the economy that services the debt.
And the worst of it is that voting one irresponsible government out of office won’t avert the problem, just exchange that one for another. Both sides committed stage 3 to law in 2019, five years ahead of time, and Anthony Albanese has further promised to go through with it.
Here we see the worst of the games of chicken our politicians play in their unceasing attempts to “wedge” each other. Because both sides understand the game, their attempts rarely succeed. But the inevitable consequence is both sides agreeing to policies contrary to the public’s best interests.
Before the budget, Chris Richardson, Deloitte Access Economics’ great budget expert, estimated the ongoing structural deficit to be as high as about $40 billion – 2 per cent of national income. Because they’re legislated, this estimate includes the cost of the July 2024 tax cuts, whose cost he updates to be more than $21 billion a year.
Not only is the government afraid to ask voters to pay for the government services they demand, it’s trying to bribe its way to election by offering to make an unfunded cut in the tax they do pay.
Ross Gittins
See how central stage 3 is to the ongoing structural problem? Richardson notes that, because wages grew by far less that projected at the time stage 3 was announced, the cuts “now overachieve in handing back bracket creep”. That is, they’ll be “real” tax cuts, not just ones that restore the status quo.
Richardson could have added that stage 3 was never capable of achieving Scott Morrison’s advertised claim for it, that it would end bracket creep for almost all taxpayers. (You don’t have to literally change tax brackets to be a victim of inflation causing you to pay a higher average rate of tax on all your income.)
Richardson proposes that stage 3 be amended in one respect: keeping the marginal tax rate for those earning above $120,000 at 37¢ in the dollar – rather than reducing it to 30¢ – would cut the cost of the measure by (an amazing) $9 billion a year.
But why stop there when there’s so much more to be done? And when deciding not to do something you haven’t yet done is always easier politically than reversing something already done. And when not cutting taxes is infinitely easier politically than cutting existing entitlements to government spending.
Stage 3, first announced in the 2018 budget, was based on mere budget projections seven years into an unknown future - which included a pandemic. It’s a monument to the folly of counting your budgetary chickens long before they fail to hatch.

PARIS (AP) — French citizens flocked to polling stations across the country Sunday to vote in the first round of the country’s presidential election, where up to 48 million eligible voters will be choosing between 12 candidates.
Centrist President Emmanuel Macron is seeking a second five-year term, but faces a strong challenge from the far right.
Polls close at 7 p.m. (1700 GMT) in most places and an hour later in some larger cities. By noon, just over a quarter of France’s electorate had cast their ballot, slightly down from previous elections. France operates a manual system for elections: Voters are obliged to cast ballots in person, and they are hand-counted once voting closes.
Unless someone gets more than half of the nationwide vote, there will be a second and decisive round between the top two candidates on Sunday, April 24.
Bundled up against an April chill, voters lined up to cast ballots at one polling station in southern Paris on Sunday before it opened. Once inside, they placed their paper ballots into envelopes and then into a transparent box, many wearing masks or using hand gel as part of COVID-19 measures.
Many candidates made early visits to their own polling stations, smiling to journalists.
Valerie Pecresse of the Republican Party cast her vote in Velizy-Villacoublay, southwest of Paris, while far right leader Marine Le Pen cast hers in Henin-Beaumont, a town in northern France 190 kilometers (120 miels) northeast of Paris. Macron and his wife cast their votes in the town of Le Touquet, in northern France.
Far-left firebrand Jean-Luc Melenchon is among other prominent figures vying to take the presidential Elysee.
Macron for months looked like a shoo-in to become France’s first president in 20 years to win a second term. But that scenario blurred in the campaign’s closing stages as the pain of inflation and of pump, food and energy prices roared back as dominant election themes for many low-income households. They could drive many voters Sunday into the arms of Le Pen, Macron’s political nemesis.
Macron trounced Le Pen by a landslide to become France’s youngest modern president in 2017. The win for the former banker — now 44 — was seen as a victory against populist, nationalist politics, coming in the wake of Donald Trump’s election to the White House and Britain’s vote to leave the European Union, both in 2016.
With populist Viktor Orban winning a fourth consecutive term as Hungary’s prime minister days ago, eyes have now turned to France’s resurgent far right candidates — especially National Rally leader Le Pen, who wants to ban Muslim headscarves in streets and halal and kosher butchers, and drastically reduce immigration from outside Europe. This election has the potential to reshape France’s post-war identity and indicate whether European populism is ascendant or in decline.
Meanwhile, if Macron wins, it will be seen as a victory for the European Union. Observers say a Macron re-election would spell real likelihood for increased cooperation and investment in European security and defense — especially with a new pro-EU German government.
With war singeing the EU’s eastern edge, French voters will be casting ballots in a presidential election whose outcome will have international implications. France is the 27-member bloc’s second economy, the only one with a U.N. Security Council veto, and its sole nuclear power. And as Russian President Vladimir Putin carries on with the war in Ukraine, French power will help shape Europe’s response.
Russia’s war in Ukraine has afforded Macron the chance to demonstrate his influence on the international stage and burnish his pro-NATO credentials in election debates. Macron is the only front-runner who supports the alliance while other candidates hold differing views on France’s role within it. Melenchon is among those who want to abandon it altogether, saying it produces nothing but squabbles and instability.
Such a development would deal a huge blow to an alliance built to protect its members in the emerging Cold War 73 years ago.

Q: While walking in the east hilltop area, I observed many fairly large oil splotches on the pavement near where each garbage can was placed. As just a few examples, the 100 block of Pfau Street and the 1300 to 1500 blocks of Fair Street plus many others. Some of this oil will eventually find its way into the storm sewers and if it was all in one place, might be considered as a very large oil spill on a street. The garbage hauling company must know they are losing a lot of oil from their trucks. As a taxpayer, I do not have much influence with the company so can I assume it is the responsibility of the city to file a complaint with the company regarding the oil pollution of our streets? I often see oil that has leaked from their trucks but not to this degree in the past.
A: Rick Baird, Mankato’s environmental sustainability coordinator, said the city received a report regarding what was likely the same incident spotted by the person submitting this question and worked with West Central Sanitation — the city’s garbage and recycling hauler — on cleanup efforts.
“It was a small hydraulic oil leak from the lift arm that picks up the garbage carts,” Baird said. “After it was reported to us, the truck was repaired and material was cleaned up quickly.”
While a stain remained, the oil that could have made its way into storm sewers was removed.
“Eventually, these stains will fade,” he said. “There is no cause for concern about these stains further impacting the environment because the hazard has been mitigated.”
Don Williamson, the owner of West Central Sanitation, said the machinery used to collect garbage and recyclables — including the hydraulic fluid systems that lift carts and compact the material — allows the work to be done with great efficiency.
“Of course there are tradeoffs for benefits,” Williamson said. “One of them is the hydraulic system has hundreds of feet of hydraulic hose and fittings subject to wear and injury. When there is a leak, an operator may not know about it until blocks away. There are no warning systems available to alert the operator to minor leaks.”
Williamson said the hydraulic fluids used by West Central are petroleum-based but he notes that the asphalt used on streets is petroleum-based, too, as are vehicle tires that slowly but steadily leave their particles on the roadway as they wear. He also made the point that garbage trucks aren’t the only vehicles that leak fluids.
“Many vehicles leak but it is not as noticeable as they do not stop in front of houses like our trucks must stop and operate in front of each home,” he said. “Vehicles moving down the street at 30 mph may leak and never be noticed.”
(In an aside, Ask Us Guy knows of a poverty-stricken young newspaper reporter who, many years ago, was too poor to repair the various leaks in his 10-year-old Chevy Monza and just continued to pour jugs of oil, engine coolant, brake fluid and other liquids into the vehicle until he was able to upgrade to a Ford Festiva. The reporter tried not to think about the environmental repercussions of his approach, although one of his coworkers — looking at the Jackson-Pollack-like mix of colors on the pavement beneath Ask Us Gu, err, the young reporter’s parking spot — suggested he purchase a really large diaper for the Monza.)
Williamson, by contrast, said his company does not condone leaky trucks or delay repairs when they’re needed.
“The goal is still to avoid all leaks,” he said. “... Of course, when a leak is discovered, the truck is repaired with new lines and fittings where the leak occurred. Many times we will dispatch a service person to apply oil absorbents on the spot and sweep them up a day or two later.”
Work is underway to create effective biodegradable hydraulic oils, and the next generation of garbage trucks may be less reliant on petroleum products.
“These new oils are not yet approved by the manufacturer of our equipment but we are hopeful they will be approved in the near future,” Williamson said. “Additionally, there is research being done in all-electrical trucks that would limit the oil needs of the truck. Electrical trucks are still a few years out for use and production.”
And finally, Baird applauded the reader for noticing the leaks and encouraged people to report similar issues when they’re seen.
“The City of Mankato has a robust environmental effort and appreciates when community members share items that need to be looked into,” Baird said, directing them to call 311 or submit an online customer service request at mankatomn.gov/customerservice.

Following a couple of solid games on Friday and Saturday, the Detroit Tigers get set to wrap up their first series of the season when they take on the Chicago White Sox once again on Sunday afternoon, looking to take the three-game set.
- Watch the Detroit Tigers on DirecTV Stream
The Tigers were unable to find the same kind of comeback spirit that led them to a victory in their season opener during the middle game of the series on Saturday. After falling behind 2-0 in the first inning to the White Sox once again, Casey Mize settled down on the mound, until giving up a two-run homer to Yasmani Grandal that put Chicago up by four.
Detroit started to claw back in the bottom half of the sixth, thanks to Jeimer Candelario’s second RBI of the season, later scoring himself in the inning. However, it would not be enough, as the White Sox bullpen was able to hold the Tigers at bay the rest of the way, handing Detroit their first loss of the season.
The Tigers still have a chance to take the series from the White Sox on Sunday, something they did twice in the second half of the 2021 season.
PROBABLE STARTERS

GUANGZHOU, China, April 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The 131st Canton Fair will be held online from April 15-24. The top trading event in China is once again ready to open its arms to the world.
China's "Two Sessions" have already concluded in Beijing, yet topics on the innovation-driven development strategy are still much discussed among China's chemical industry. As a pillar of the national economy, China's chemical industry is large in scale, long in the industrial chain, concentrated in capital and technology, and massive in driving effect. However, the demand for high-end chemical productions, pronouncedly the new chemical materials, has greatly outrun the supply, making China dependent on imports of superconducting chemical materials featuring high strength, high heat resistance, high ultra-purity, super-fine, high wear resistance.
Thanks to the implementation of the 14th Five-Year Plan Development Guideline for Petroleum and Chemicals and the Long-Range Objectives through the Year 2035, China's basic chemicals industry reaches a tipping point for crucial changes, and high-end, green chemical products become a new trend. A number of key technologies for new chemical materials and high-end chemicals, such as POE and environmental-friendly catalysts, have been developed and obtained patents, breaking foreign monopolies.
The Canton Fair is a world-renowned comprehensive trading event, bringing together Chinese chemical brands and global buyers. The past sessions have witnessed a large number of transactions on high value-added chemical products, special products and brand products, such as silicone, adhesives, special coatings, and plastic products, which buyers favor. Chemical manufacturers with strong R&D and innovation capabilities are thriving with considerable turnover.
Accelerated industrial upgrading is also bringing new opportunities to China's chemical industry. According to CINIC, China's petrochemical industry reported a revenue of RMB14.45 trillion in 2021, up 30% year-on-year; total profits of RMB1.16 trillion, up 126.8%; total imports and exports of US$860.08 billion, up 38.7% compared with last year.
Maggie Pu, Deputy Director General of the Foreign Affairs Office of the Canton Fair, says that Canton Fair has been promoting "Intelligent Manufacturing in China" to the international arena. As with the "Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutrality" strategy, this year's Canton Fair will continue to encourage chemical exhibitors to showcase more of their latest "green chemicals" and "high-end intelligent" products, enabling global buyers to share opportunities in China and benefits of green development.
