By MICHAEL TARM, KATHLEEN FOODY and STEPHEN GROVES
HIGHLAND PARK, Ill. (AP) — The gunman who attacked an Independence Day parade in suburban Chicago fired more than 70 rounds with an AR-15-style gun that killed at least six people, then evaded initial capture by dressing as a woman and blending into the fleeing crowd, police said Tuesday.
Lake County Major Crime Task Force spokesman Christopher Covelli told a news conference that the suspected shooter, who was arrested late Monday, used a high-powered rifle “similar to an AR-15″ to spray bullets from atop a commercial building into a crowd that had gathered for the parade in Highland Park, a close-knit community on the shores of Lake Michigan that has long drawn the rich and sometimes famous.
More than 30 people were also wounded.
Investigators who have interrogated the suspect and reviewed his social media posts have not determined a motive for the attack or found any indication that the shooter targeted anyone by race, religion or other protected status, Covelli said.
Authorities have not filed criminal charges.
Earlier in the day, FBI agents peeked into trash cans and under picnic blankets as they searched for more evidence at the site where the assailant opened fire. The shots were initially mistaken for fireworks before hundreds of panicked revelers fled in terror.
A day later, baby strollers, lawn chairs and other items left behind by panicked parade goers remained inside a wide police perimeter. Outside the police tape, some residents drove up to collect blankets and chairs they abandoned.
David Shapiro, 47, said the spray of gunfire quickly turned the parade into “chaos.”
“People didn’t know right away where the gunfire was coming from, whether the gunman was in front or behind you chasing you,” he said Tuesday as he retrieved a stroller and lawn chairs.
The shooting was just the latest to shatter the rituals of American life. Schools, churches, grocery stores and now community parades have all become killing grounds in recent months. This time, the bloodshed came as the nation tried to find cause to celebrate its founding and the bonds that still hold it together.
“It definitely hits a lot harder when it’s not only your hometown but it’s also right in front of you,” resident Ron Tuazon said as he and a friend returned to the parade route Monday evening to retrieve chairs, blankets and a child’s bike that his family abandoned when the shooting began.
“It’s commonplace now,” Tuazon said. “We don’t blink any more. Until laws change, it’s going to be more of the same.”
A police officer pulled over Robert E. Crimo III north of the shooting scene several hours after police released his photo and warned that he was likely armed and dangerous, Highland Park Police Chief Lou Jogmen said.
Authorities initially said Crimo, whose father once ran for mayor of Highland Park, was 22, but an FBI bulletin and Crimo’s social media said he was 21.
President Joe Biden on Tuesday ordered American flags be flown at half-staff through Saturday as a “mark of respect for the victims of the senseless acts of gun violence perpetrated on our Independence Day.”
The shooting occurred at a spot on the parade route where many residents had staked out prime viewing points early in the day.
Among them was Nicolas Toledo, who was visiting his family in Illinois from Mexico. He was shot and died at the scene, his granddaughter, Xochil Toledo, told the Chicago Sun-Times. Also killed was Jacki Sundheim, a lifelong congregant and “beloved” staff member at nearby North Shore Congregation Israel, which announced her death on its website.
Police have not released details about the victims, but Toledo’s granddaughter told the Sun-Times that Toledo had spent most of his life in Morelos, Mexico. Xochil Toledo said she remembers looking over at her grandfather, who was in his late 70s, as a band passed them.
“He was so happy,” she said. “Happy to be living in the moment.”
Xochil Toledo said her father tried to shield her grandfather and was shot in the arm. Her boyfriend also was shot in the back and taken to a hospital.
Sundheim had spent decades on the staff at North Shore Congregation Israel, teaching at the congregation’s preschool and later coordinating events, “all of this with tireless dedication,” the congregation said in its statement announcing her death.
“Jacki’s work, kindness and warmth touched us all,” the statement said.
NorthShore University Health Center received 26 patients after the attack. All but one had gunshot wounds, said Dr. Brigham Temple, medical director of emergency preparedness. Their ages ranged from 8 to 85, and Temple estimated that four or five were children.
Since the start of the year, the U.S. has seen 15 shootings where four or more people were killed, including the one in Highland Park, according to The Associated Press/USA TODAY/Northeastern University mass killing database.
Highland Park Police Commander Chris O’Neill said the gunman apparently fired from a rooftop where he was “very difficult to see.” He said the rifle was recovered at the scene. Police also found a ladder attached to the building.
Covelli said Crimo legally purchased the gun in Illinois within the past year.
In 2013, Highland Park officials approved a ban on assault weapons and ammunition magazines of more than 10 rounds. A local doctor and the Illinois State Rifle Association quickly challenged the liberal suburb’s stance. The legal fight ended at the U.S. Supreme Court’s doorstep in 2015 when justices declined to hear the case and let the suburb’s restrictions remain in place.
Crimo, who goes by the name Bobby, was an aspiring rapper with the stage name Awake the Rapper, posting on social media dozens videos and songs, some ominous and violent.
In one animated video since taken down by YouTube, Crimo raps about armies “walking in darkness” as a drawing appears of a man pointing a rifle, a body on the ground and another figure with hands up in the distance.
Crimo’s father, Bob, a longtime deli owner, sought the mayor’s office in 2019, calling himself “a person for the people.”
The community of about 30,000 on Chicago’s affluent North Shore has mansions and sprawling lakeside estates and was once home to NBA legend Michael Jordan.
Shapiro, the Highland Park resident who fled the parade with his family, said his 2-year-old son woke up screaming later that night.
“He is too young to understand what happened. But he knows something bad happened,” Shapiro said. “That’s chilling.”

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Louisiana's attorney general asked the state's Supreme Court on Tuesday to allow enforcement of Louisiana's ban on most abortions.
Louisiana's anti-abortion statutes include so-called triggers that were designed to instantly take effect once the U.S. Supreme Court reversed abortion rights.
But a state judge in New Orleans last week blocked enforcement of the law pending a court hearing on a lawsuit filed by a north Louisiana abortion clinic and others. The suit claims the law is unclear on when the ban takes affect and on medical exceptions to the ban.
Tuesday's filing by the attorney general's office says the order blocking enforcement should be dissolved. The filing says the abortion rights advocates who filed the suit “are willfully misreading clear terms in the law in an attempt to manufacture arguments that the statutes are unconstitutionally vague.” | https://www.newstimes.com/news/article/Louisiana-asks-court-to-allow-abortion-ban-17285358.php | 2022-07-05T18:13:26Z | https://www.newstimes.com/news/article/Louisiana-asks-court-to-allow-abortion-ban-17285358.php | true | null |
SAN ANTONIO – The San Antonio Spurs are in the process of signing their first free agent signee of the 2022 NBA off-season, according to media reports.
Free-agent center Gorgui Dieng, who played for the team during the 2020-21 season, is on the verge of signing again with the team on a 1-year deal, NBA reporter Shams Charania of The Athletic says.
Free agent center Gorgui Dieng has agreed to a one-year deal with the San Antonio Spurs, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.
— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) July 5, 2022
Last season for the Atlanta Hawks, Dieng played in 44 games, averaging 3.5 points and 2.8 rebounds in 8 minutes per game.
Back in the 2020-2021 season, he appeared in only 16 games for the Silver and Black, averaging 5.3 points and 2.6 rebounds.
The potential signing means he’s likely to replace center Jock Landale on the roster, who was included as part of the Dejaunte Murray trade to the Hawks, which was reported on June 29.
Dieng’s salary has yet to be released.
Spurs sign first of 3 first-round draft picks
The Spurs announced Tuesday that they have signed 2022 first-round draft pick Blake Wesley to his first NBA contract. The terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Wesley, a 6 foot 5 guard from Notre Dame, was the no. 25 pick in the NBA draft, and averaged 14.4 points and 3.7 rebounds in his lone season with the Fighting Irish.
The three-time ACC Rookie of the Week was named to the 2022 ACC All-Rookie Team and the 2022 All-ACC Second Team.
Wesley will play for the Spurs in the NBA 2K23 Summer League in Las Vegas from July 7-17 and will wear No. 14. | https://www.ksat.com/sports/2022/07/05/free-agent-center-gorgui-dieng-to-reunite-with-spurs-on-1-year-deal-reports-say/ | 2022-07-05T18:16:08Z | https://www.ksat.com/sports/2022/07/05/free-agent-center-gorgui-dieng-to-reunite-with-spurs-on-1-year-deal-reports-say/ | false | 1 |

Jews identified among victims of July 4 shooting, attack planned for weeks
Crimo was dressed in women's clothing to conceal his facial tattoos and escape
Israeli Consul General in Chicago Yinam Cohen confirmed that two of the six fatalities in the July 4 mass shooting were Jews with other two victims likely also being members of the local Jewish community.
The mass shooting that took place during a July 4 parade in a Chicago suburb on Monday, was pre-planned, police reported. Highland Park has a large Jewish community with one of the victims, Jacki Sundheim, identified as an events coordinator at a nearby Reform synagogue, according to The Times of Israel.
Police announced on Tuesday that the alleged shooter, a 21-year-old Robert Crimo, targeted the victims randomly but planned his attack in advance.
"We do believe Crimo pre-planned this attack for several weeks. He brought a high-powered rifle to this parade," police spokesman Chris Covelli was quoted as saying.
"Crimo was dressed in women's clothing, and investigators do believe he did this to conceal his facial tattoos and his identity during his escape," the official added.
Crimo fired more than 70 rounds from a rooftop leaving six people dead and more than two dozen wounded, lncluding children. He managed to blend in with the crowd and escape the scene but was arrested hours after the attack. | https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/international/americas/1657043218-jews-identified-among-victims-of-chicago-shooting-attack-planned-for-weeks | 2022-07-05T18:17:02Z | https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/international/americas/1657043218-jews-identified-among-victims-of-chicago-shooting-attack-planned-for-weeks | false | 1 |

Paleo Sweet Potato Bread by Madeleine Shaw, nutritional health coach and food blogger
"My food philosophy dabbles in Paleo ideas; lots of meat, veggies and nuts. For a lot of people a Paleo diet works really well. For me, it’s too restrictive - I love quinoa and the odd bit of organic dairy too much!
However, this recipe can be enjoyed by all. We use the sweet potato as the main body of this bread, making it lusciously moist and sweet. This bread can be served with a side of homemade nutella for a sweet treat or with some eggs and smoked salmon for a more savoury dish. It’s a versatile beauty.
I have used ground almonds instead of flour to boost your vitamin E levels and to give the bread a nutty richness. The eggs act as a binder, holding this golden loaf in place. Free range eggs are the most complete food with such a variety of healthy fats, protein and nutrients tucked in them.
To achieve the traditional loaf shape, bake this mixture in a bread tin. It bakes slightly low and slow so be patient. The recipe calls for steamed and puréed sweet potato, so grab two large sweet potatoes, peel, chop and steam them for 20 or 30 minutes until cooked through. Then drain and mash these up into a purée and leave to cool. This can be done in advance and left in the fridge."
Ingredients
400g steamed and puréed sweet potato
4 free range eggs
1 pinch of salt
50g coconut oil or butter
1 tsp baking powder
300g ground almonds
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 150C (fan).
In a food processor, mix the eggs, oil and sweet potato. Spoon this mixture into a bowl and add the ground almonds, baking powder and salt. Mix well.
Pour into a paper lined baking tray and bake for 1 hour 15 minutes.
Leave this to cool for an hour before slicing it with a sharp knife to serve.

Buckwheat and ginger granola by Deliciously Ella, food blogger
"I love granola, it’s one of my go-to foods – partly because I secretly love eating breakfast three times a day and partly because handfuls of granola make one of the best, easy snacks. I’ve been obsessively making and loving my cinnamon pecan granola for the last three years and I honestly never thought I could stray away from it, but I’ve been totally converted by this buckwheat and ginger granola, so much so that I have to admit I think it’s my new favourite. The texture is much more interesting as the buckwheat grouts add a really nice crunch, there are still oats in the mix, but there’s just a little more going on in between them."
Ingredients
Makes one big container:
2 cups of oats (220g)
1 cup of buckwheat (280g)
1 cup of sunflower seeds (200g)
1 cup of pumpkin seeds (200g)
1 and a ½ cups of pitted dates (300g)
1 cup of apple purée/sauce (about the size of a 360g jar)
6 tbs coconut oil
4 tbs raw cacao powder
A piece of ginger (20g)
Preparation
Start by pre-heating the oven to 180C.
Then place the oats, buckwheat and seeds into a large mixing bowl and stir well.
Next add the dates, coconut oil and apple purée into a saucepan and allow them to simmer for five minutes, until the dates are nice and soft.
While the dates cook peel the ginger and grate it onto a plate, once it’s grated mix it into the date pan.
When the dates are soft, place them (including the melted coconut oil, grated ginger and apple purée) into a blender with the raw cacao powder and blend until the mix is totally smooth. Then pour the mix over the buckwheat, oat and seed mix and stir well so that everything is coated.
Grease one large or two medium baking trays with coconut oil before spreading the granola out over them. Place the baking trays in the oven and bake for about 45 minutes. After 15 minutes, remove the trays from the oven and stir everything well so that the top doesn’t burn, then keep doing this every five to ten minutes for the rest of the time it’s in the oven.
Once it’s nice and crispy, but not burnt, take the granola out of the oven and allow it to cool before placing it in an airtight container to store. In an airtight container it will stay delicious for about a month or so.

Mushrooms on toast with goat’s curd, by Jennifer Irvine, founder of Pure Package
Serves 2
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Wheat free, gluten free, vegetarian
"This dish is a childhood favourite, reminding me always of damp afternoons spent picking mushrooms in the woods near my family home. As a special treat, a steaming plate of sautéed mushrooms was sometimes topped off with a luxurious dollop of goat’s curd, and that’s how I love to eat them today, with toast to mop up all the delicious juices."
Ingredients
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp oil
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 small shallot, finely chopped
300g chestnut mushrooms, sliced
1 tbsp water
Handful fresh parsley, finely chopped
50g goat’s curd or goat’s roule
2 slices of spelt or rye bread
Preparation
In a non-stick frying pan, heat the butter and the oil over a medium heat until the butter is foaming.
Add the garlic and shallot, and stir well to cover in butter, then leave to sauté for 1 minute.
Add the sliced mushrooms and stir well, then leave to fry for 2 minutes.
Add the water and stir while it bubbles, then leave for another 2 minutes, to allow the mushrooms to reduce and release their juices.
Add the parsley and half the goat’s curd, stirring well, until the mixture starts to bubble.
Toast the bread, and when ready, place on individual plates.
Divide the mushroom mix between the plates, piling it onto the toast, and top with the remainder of the goat’s curd.
Jennifer’s Tip: If you can’t find goat’s curd, softened goat’s cheese or cream cheese are good alternatives.

Cacao and spirulina sugar-free smoothie by Jenna Zoe, nutritionist and food blogger
"Here is my favourite sugar-free smoothie: cacao and spirulina! I have it most mornings as it tastes indulgent yet delivers that ideal combination of protein and fat, which primes our fat-burning hormones for the rest of the day."
Ingredients
1 cup (250ml) of coconut water (you can use regular water or almond milk if you like, but the coconut water is what gives it its sweetness)
1/4 cup of frozen spinach or 1/3 cup tightly packed fresh kale
1 cup of ice
1 scoop of vanilla protein powder (I LOVE Warrior Blend by Sunwarrior)
1 tbsp raw cacao powder
1/2-1 tsp spirulina
1/2 tsp xanthan gum (optional, for improved texture)
1 heaped tbsp almond butter
Cacao nibs for garnish
Preparation
Blend the coconut water with the spinach or kale first until it's completely smooth (pre-blending greens is the best way to ensure a non-grassy texture in a shake).

Buckwheat pancakes by Angela Walker, nutritionist at Thirty Eight Degrees North (Ibiza, UK and USA)
Ingredients
This makes about 6 pancakes:
1 cup of buckwheat flour
1 cup of milk (or almond or rice or soya milk)
A dash of water
1 egg
A squeeze of lemon and (optional) grated lemon rinds
½ tsp cinnamon
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
Olive oil or coconut oil
Yogurt, berries, banana or apple and flaxseeds for topping
Preparation
Blend all the ingredients (except the oil) together with a hand-held blender.
Heat the oil in a small frying pan and pour in a small amount to cook each pancake individually.
Once a side is cooked (slightly browned and the pancake will be easy to move around if you shake the pan), turn over and cook the other side. You might need to tease the edge of the pancake with a spatula to stop it sticking. You can keep the batter in the fridge for up to three days.
Serve pancakes with avocado or nut butter and warm fresh berries (heat in a pan for 1 minute), chopped banana or apple and a tablespoon of flaxseeds.

Legendary investor Warren Buffett advises to be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful. One way we can try to measure the level of fear in a given stock is through a technical analysis indicator called the Relative Strength Index, or RSI, which measures momentum on a scale of zero to 100. A stock is considered to be oversold if the RSI reading falls below 30.
In trading on Tuesday, shares of Royal Caribbean Group (Symbol: RCL) entered into oversold territory, hitting an RSI reading of 29.5, after changing hands as low as $32.64 per share. By comparison, the current RSI reading of the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) is 40.9. A bullish investor could look at RCL's 29.5 RSI reading today as a sign that the recent heavy selling is in the process of exhausting itself, and begin to look for entry point opportunities on the buy side. The chart below shows the one year performance of RCL shares:
Looking at the chart above, RCL's low point in its 52 week range is $32.64 per share, with $98.27 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $34.79.

CPA finds 4 faults of BM Depot but knows not how the fire started
The three-member probe committee of the Chittagong Port Authority (CPA) has identified four major faults of the BM Container Depot where a deadly fire broke out on 4 June this year, but it has failed to find out how the blaze started.
Mismanagement, lack of security, absence of a fire-fighting system and skilled manpower were the key faults of the depot in Chattogram's Sitakundu, the committee headed by Chattogram Port Terminal Manager Kudrat-E-Khuda mentioned in its probe report which was submitted to the authorities recently.
The report, a copy of which The Business Standard obtained, said the depot kept hazardous chemicals and dangerous goods with apparel and other export products without maintaining safety measures.
"We might have not seen such massive casualties if the depot would be compliant," it reads and added that prompt action immediately after noticing the smoke at a container could have prevented the prolonged fire incident.
The smoke was seen on the container of One Shipping Line at 8.30 pm on the day, but there was no fire until then, according to the CPA probe committee.
"Later, the fire broke out and went out of control. The fire service was called around 9.30 pm but no one informed the rescue agency about the existence of chemical containers there."
Although the 24-page report failed to explain why the smoke was created and how the fume turned into a devastating blaze, it suggested further investigations on whether the fire broke out from a burning cigarette or due to a substandard chemical jar or any other reason.
When contacted, CPA Chairman Rear Admiral M Shahjahan declined to talk about the report. "We will formally disclose the report soon," he told The Business Standard and added that all the initiatives recommended in the report would be taken to prevent such a devastating incident in future.
The CPA report also blamed Al Razi Chemical, a subsidiary of the depot owner Smart Group, for its negligence in taking away its chemical-containing containers from the depot, which triggered the blast.
Al Razi was supposed to take the containers to its factory from the depot on 2 June, two days before the accident. "But, it did not do so. In addition, the jars containing hydrogen peroxide did not meet international standards. So, the company cannot avoid liability," the report reads.
When contacted, Smart Group General Manager Shamsul Haider Siddiqui told The Business Standard that they did not receive the report yet.
"However, the way we are being blamed is not completely true [fair]. There was a lack of planning in storing the chemical containers, but the depot had 177 fire extinguishers under a trained fire unit," he said, adding that there are also two water bodies inside the depot.
CPA recommendations
For all the container depots, the CPA report made four recommendations – taking prior permission to keep chemicals, separating the area for storing hazardous chemicals or dangerous goods, declaring depots smoking-free and installing fire hydrants.
It also suggested traders use particular depots well capable of storing chemicals. Besides, depots are recommended to train their workers in fire-fighting in collaboration with the nearest fire stations, maintaining good cooperation with the port, customs and other stakeholders.
What other agencies say
Apart from the CPA, five different agencies – fire Service, Chattogram district administration, Chattogram divisional commissioner, customs authorities and explosives department – formed probe committees to investigate the 4 June fire that left at least 49 killed and over 250 wounded.
"We were supposed to submit our report on Sunday. But we could not do so as some lab test reports were yet to be received," Additional Divisional Commissioner for Chattogram Mohammad Mizanur Rahman told The Business Standard.
"Hopefully, we will be able to submit the report within this week," he added.
"Several chemical experts, including university teachers, told us hydrogen peroxide was not the main cause of the blast. The fire probably broke out from other sources," Uttam Chakma, assistant commissioner of customs and a member of the inquiry committee formed by Chattogram customs, told TBS.
"Since the fire was out of control for a long time, the container carrying hydrogen peroxide exploded due to high heat," he added. | https://www.tbsnews.net/bangladesh/cpa-finds-4-faults-bm-depot-knows-not-how-fire-started-453686 | 2022-07-05T18:21:01Z | https://www.tbsnews.net/bangladesh/cpa-finds-4-faults-bm-depot-knows-not-how-fire-started-453686 | true | 1 |

ONTARIO — Gov. Kate Brown announced an investment of $1.6 million on June 28 for three Oregon higher education institutions to launch an initiative called “Moon Shot for Equity” that aims to close equity gaps for Eastern Oregon students at two- and four-year colleges and universities by 2030.
The three schools, Eastern Oregon University, Treasure Valley Community College, and Blue Mountain Community College, will work together as part of a five-year, student-centered comprehensive strategic plan to identify and remove systemic barriers that are preventing access and attainment to a post-secondary education degree.
“Every student in Oregon, no matter who they are or where they come from, deserves equitable access to higher education. We must invest and innovate to break down the barriers that have kept too many Oregonians from succeeding in higher education,” said Brown. “This initial investment is just the start of a program to deliver lasting and meaningful change this year and in years to come. Every person in Eastern Oregon – and throughout the state – should be able to attend college and earn a degree.”
This initiative is part of the Governor’s work with public universities and community colleges to embrace innovation and focus on working smarter across education sectors to support students through every stage of education. The $1.6 million will be funded with federal Governor’s Emergency Education Relief Fund dollars. GEER funds are reserved for allocations by governors through the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act.
Working with national experts with proven success, EOU, TVCC, and BMCC will use research, technology, and advisory services focused on change management and equity training. Moon Shot for Equity universities and colleges must also commit to removing systemic barriers to success and collaborating with other schools in their area to establish common academic pathways that facilitate student transfers between two- and four-year institutions.
“This initial investment is a critical first step to launching this five-year initiative,” said Tom Insko, President of EOU. “Together, I believe we can reshape the future of post-secondary education in eastern Oregon, which means eliminating the equity gap and making sure all students reach their attainment goals in less time and money and set the path to better career outcomes.”
“Open and equitable access is the core of what we strive for here at BMCC,” said J. Mark Browning, President, BMCC. “We are excited about how Moonshot for Equity can help us reach those goals and deliver even greater success for students.”
“We look forward to strengthening our regional partnerships and identifying ways we can improve transfer options for students to seamlessly continue their education in eastern Oregon,” said TVCC President Dr. Dana M. Young. “Not only will this give us access to resources to enhance student opportunities, but Moonshot for Equity connects us to experts and expertise to ensure our classes and services align to support student success.” | https://www.argusobserver.com/news/gov-kate-brown-launches-moon-shot-for-equity-initiative-for-eastern-oregon-college-students/article_052d243a-fc75-11ec-befd-9f2a6c57d20d.html | 2022-07-05T18:29:23Z | https://www.argusobserver.com/news/gov-kate-brown-launches-moon-shot-for-equity-initiative-for-eastern-oregon-college-students/article_052d243a-fc75-11ec-befd-9f2a6c57d20d.html | true | 2 |

By Martyn Herman
London: Just when Novak Djokovic’s troubling year looked like hitting another low, he salvaged his bid for a fourth successive Wimbledon title by coming back from two sets down to beat Italian Jannik Sinner.
On Tuesday (UK time), the Serbian top seed had looked in all kinds of trouble against the inspired 20-year-old after being outplayed for two sets but stormed back to win 5-7, 2-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-2.
In the end there was an air of inevitability about the outcome as the battle-hardened 35-year-old seized control to reach his 43rd Grand Slam semi-final and 11th at Wimbledon.
He also extended an unbeaten run at Wimbledon that goes back to 2017 and now stands at 26 matches.
Djokovic has not added to his 20 major titles this year after being deported before the Australian Open following a COVID-19 standoff and then losing to old adversary Rafa Nadal in the quarter-finals of the French Open.
But he kept alive the prospect of facing the second-seeded Spaniard in Sunday’s final with a superb comeback, the seventh time in his career he has triumphed after losing the first two sets.
After taking the acclaim of the crowd on Centre Court, Djokovic explained how he had turned it around.
“The first two sets compared to the last three was like two different matches,” Djokovic, who is now joint second all-time with Jimmy Connors on 83 Wimbledon match wins, said on court.
“[Sinner] was the better player for two sets, then I went out and had a toilet break and had a little pep talk with myself in the mirror, it’s actually true. Sometimes when not much positive is happening these things are necessary.
“I broke early in the third set and that gave me a confidence boost and I saw a little doubt in him.”
Sinner, the 10th seed, had looked set for the biggest win of his career to follow in the footsteps of compatriot Matteo Berrettini who reached last year’s final.
But once Djokovic’s onslaught began he faded.
When Djokovic produced a miraculous backhand winner on the slide to earn a break in the seventh game of the fifth set, ending on his belly in a superman posture, Sinner knew that he was facing mission impossible.
The Italian belted a volley long on the next point and then Djokovic held to love to seal victory and set up a clash with either David Goffin or British hope Cameron Norrie.

A controversial oil project that would connect oilfields in a Ugandan National Park to a port in Tanzania breaches global environmental guidelines for banks, according to a new nonprofit report Tuesday.
The 897-mile (1443-kilometer) East Africa Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP), planned by French oil giant TotalEnergies and the China National Offshore Oil Corporation has been mired in allegations of human rights abuses and environmental hazard. The 230,000 barrels of oil produced daily will emit 34 million tons of carbon dioxide annually, according to Ugandan nonprofit the Africa Institute for Energy Governance. Construction will take three years, once a final decision has been taken.
At least 20 banks and eight insurers have ruled themselves out of the project, many coming under pressure from environmental groups. South Africa’s Standard Bank and the Japanese Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC) are financial advisers and lead debt arrangers. The UK’s Standard Chartered bank is also considering financing it.
All three signed up to the benchmark Equator Principles, voluntary environmental and human rights guidelines for financing infrastructure projects. A report by the non-governmental organization Inclusive Development International, shared exclusively with The Associated Press, says the project repeatedly breaches these principles and banks would violate them too if they go ahead. Banks are forbidden from financing non-compliant projects. But the scheme is powerless to eject members that do.
Oil wells will be drilled within Murchison Falls National Park, western Uganda. Here the Nile plummets some 130 feet (40 meters) through a gap just 20 feet (6 meters) wide, the surrounding wilderness home to hippos, egrets, giraffes and antelope. The pipeline would then pass through seven forest reserves and two game parks, running alongside Lake Victoria, a source of fresh water for 40 million people.
“An oil spill could prove disastrous for the millions that rely on the lake’s watershed for drinking water and food production,” the environmental campaign group 350.org has warned.
The report says the risk of oil spills breaches an Equator Principle requiring minimal environmental impact. A review of the plans by the nonprofit E-Tech International, which advises communities affected by infrastructure projects, found best practice was not followed.
“EACOP oil spills will occur over the lifetime of the project,” the review concluded.
The pipeline’s environmental assessment doesn’t contain a robust oil spill plan, the report’s authors contend, a further breach of the Principles. The pipeline will also traverse an earthquake zone — the Great Rift Valley — the Inclusive Development International report warns.
TotalEnergies said the pipeline’s state of the art design will ensure safety for decades.
The oil has a high wax content, solidifying at temperatures below 91.4 degrees Fahrenheit (33 degrees Celsius) which would stop oil from spreading as liquid, the company said. Emergency plans are being prepared, the company insisted. Summer temperatures can hit 104 Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius) in Uganda.
Human rights standards have also allegedly been broken, according to the report. At least four letters from UN Special Rapporteurs on Human Rights, sent to the Ugandan president and TotalEnergies’ CEO Patrick Pouyanné over two years, detail “various acts of harassment and intimidation” against protesting Ugandans. Numerous activists and a journalist have allegedly been intimidated, forced into hiding, arrested and interrogated.
The Equator Principles are “not being met with regard to the risks facing community members that express criticism,” the report finds.
TotalEnergies said it was unaware of threats emanating from its own staff. The company said it is “vocal about the need” for Ugandan security forces to respect human rights, and had written to the Ugandan president to share its concerns.
“TotalEnergies does not tolerate any threats or attacks against those who peacefully defend and promote human rights,” the statement read.
The Principles have also been violated by a lack of community engagement “free of manipulation, interference, or coercion, or intimidation”, according to the analysis.
More than 120,000 people will lose land to make way for the project, an evaluation by environmental campaign group Friends of the Earth found. There must be “free, prior and informed” consultation with people whose lives may be changed, according to the Principles.
But the report found these requirements were not “sufficiently met”.
The project has “systematically failed” to consult and disclose accessible information, it said.
TotalEnergies said only 13,300 people would be economically impacted across Uganda and Tanzania. Since 2017, meetings have reached over 200,000 affected individuals along the route, the oil major said.
Finally, the project violates standards on land acquisition and resettlement, the report finds. Compensation processes “exacerbated, rather than mitigated” negative impacts, impoverishing villagers who lost access to farmland and faced long delays awaiting compensation.
TotalEnergies said it had already begun paying compensation. The process abides by local laws and is in compliance with the Principles, the company insisted.
Equator Principles chair Amit Puri said each member was “individually responsible for its own internal procedures” to comply. He added that The Equator Principles do not have the authority to respond to concerns about breaching them.
Mr Puri is global head of environmental risk at Standard Chartered, one of the banks that the report says would allegedly be breaching the guidelines by financing the pipeline.
Standard Chartered itself and SMBC declined to comment. The China National Offshore Oil Corporation did not respond to numerous requests for a statement.
Standard Bank said its due diligence on funding the project was being assessed, but no final decision has been made. The decision’s subject to a full assessment of climate change strategies, the bank said, while “full compliance” with the Equator Principles was needed to fund the project.
Despite environmental and human rights concerns, the campaign to stop the pipeline is “unrealistic”, said Angelo Izama, of Ugandan think tank Fanaka Kwa Wote.
“Uganda is being thrust into this role as a poster child for climate damage, and it’s really unfair,” he said.
It amounted to a “dismissal of the national interests of Uganda”.
Ugandan oil officials declined to comment.
But President Yoweri Museveni has said oil wealth can lift millions out of poverty, while other government officials hope Uganda can become a middle-income country.
Efforts to stop the pipeline have left some dismayed at what they see as concerted efforts to sabotage the project.
“TotalEnergies and CNOOC … have the financial muscle and technical know-how to deliver a world-class project” wrote Elison Karuhanga, a prominent oil attorney, in Uganda’s Daily Monitor newspaper.

Two men accused of having a revolver and ammunition, as well as involvement with a criminal organisation, are to have their trials heard before the non-jury Special Criminal Court after a successful application by the State.
Ryan Kelly (32) of Captain's Road, Crumlin, Dublin 12, is accused of possessing a .38 Special Smith & Wesson revolver and five rounds of .38 Special calibre ammunition at Captain's Road on November 11th, 2021.
Both offences are contrary to Section 27 (A) of the Firearms Act.
Anthony Walker (52), of Marrowbone Lane, Dublin 8, is also accused of possession of a Smith & Wesson revolver and five rounds of .38 Special calibre ammunition at Tallaght Road, Templeogue, Dublin 6W, on November 23rd, 2021.
Both men are further charged with having knowledge of a criminal organisation, that they participated in, contributed to, or were reckless as to whether such participation or contribution could facilitate the commission of a serious offence on the same date, contrary to Section 72 of the Criminal Justice Act.
State solicitor Michael O'Donovan made a successful ex-parte application - where only one side is represented - to try both men at the three-judge court.
The State can apply for a certificate to transfer a trial to the Special Criminal Court if it is believed the ordinary courts are inadequate to secure the effective administration of justice.
Presiding judge Mr Justice Tony Hunt granted the application and adjourned the matter to Monday, July 11th. | https://www.echolive.ie/nationalnews/arid-40911245.html | 2022-07-05T18:44:57Z | https://www.echolive.ie/nationalnews/arid-40911245.html | true | 2 |

Man arrested for masterbating in public, discovered to be fugitive
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - Metro Police placed a man under arrest on Friday night for indecent behavior before learning that he’s actually a fugitive on the run.
According to the arrest affidavit, a woman called police just before 9 p.m. on Friday to report that a man was masturbating while staring at her. The woman told police that she was charging her phone at a charging station near the pedestrian bridge when she noticed the man walking toward her and touching himself.
Officers were able to locate 29-year-old Kenneth Goode nearby. Goode told officers he had just urinated and was messing with his zipper when the woman saw him. He was arrested booked on misdemeanor charges of indecent exposure and disorderly conduct.
There is also a warrant for Goode from a previous incident at an unknown location that went unresolved. For this, an additional felony fugitive of justice charge has been applied, along with a $100,000 bond.

Lost files, computer viruses, outdated software: Tech malfunctions are nothing new in the workplace, and almost half of working America reports that they seek out coworkers at least once a day for tech assistance. While computer struggles may feel universal, troubleshooting tech issues is far from a shared job. In fact, over one in four Gen Z workers feel they cannot get work done due to being designated the default “tech support” for their colleagues, according to a new study conducted by OSlash.
For the first time in recent history, workplaces host up to five generations of workers, ranging from Silent Generation employees who grew up during World War II to Gen Z employees entering a new, remote workplace for the first time. While multigenerational workplaces offer opportunities for mutual growth, younger workers are increasingly picking up the slack beyond their job descriptions to compensate for technological deficiencies among older people, OSlash’s survey reveals.
“Though we have a lot to thank technology for, many people dread having to teach programs and tools to their co-workers at the office,” reads the new OSlash report. “Yet, improper training and a lack of tools and support put people in a tough spot. Do they focus on their responsibilities or neglect their work to help a co-worker? Either choice might hurt the company and create delays.”
On average, Gen-Zers are spending up to eight hours each week looking for computer files on behalf of coworkers, time that can cost employers $11,136 annually. Beyond that, American workers above the age of 42 delay close to one in four meetings a day due to tech-related issues.
It’s not just complicated software questions that are causing these delays, according to OSlash. Simple tech advancements, such as link sharing, cause the majority of workplace disruptions. Many older colleagues seek out younger coworkers to address their tech issues rather than running their questions through a quick and often resolvable Google search. Because of this, younger employees’ work time is more frequently interrupted.
How did Gen-Zers come to find themselves in this position? According to OSlash, the root of the problem may be found in the 86% of American employees who overexaggerate or lie about their tech skills before being hired. Rather than admit confusion, workers think they can learn on the job.
“One of the issues with this is that many of these technologies aren’t even that new, and younger employees often find themselves helping their coworkers with tasks as simple as drafting an email,” the OSlash study finds.
Younger workers are calling for employers to offer dedicated professional tech support teams and to slow down the rollout of new tech systems introduced into workplaces. Not only could this alleviate Gen-Zers from feeling overburdened by additional and time-consuming responsibilities, but saved time could increase workplace efficiency and cut back annual spending. | https://www.fastcompany.com/90766695/gen-z-employees-have-become-the-default-office-tech-support-and-theyre-not-happy-about-it?partner=feedburner&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feedburner+fastcompany&utm_content=feedburner | 2022-07-05T18:49:13Z | https://www.fastcompany.com/90766695/gen-z-employees-have-become-the-default-office-tech-support-and-theyre-not-happy-about-it?partner=feedburner&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feedburner+fastcompany&utm_content=feedburner | true | 3 |

Liverpool are not likely to make a move for Borussia Dortmund star Jude Bellingham this summer.
The Reds have been rather active in the summer transfer window already, snapping up Darwin Nunez to replace Sadio Mane, who left shortly after the Uraguayan’s arrival.
Jurgen Klopp and his men are hoping to go one better in the Premier League title race in the coming season, and the added strength should help.
But the Reds continue to be linked with a number of transfers, despite the general understanding that further significant spending is not likely this summer.
One player who continues to be linked with a move to Anfield is England star Bellingham, but according to Liverpool World’s Will Rooney, a move is not likely, not this summer, at least.
As you can see on the video at the top of the page, Rooney said: “I think the only was you would see Bellingham coming in is if he falls a little bit like the Luis Diaz situation, where the club are stealing a march, where they think ‘right, we need to get him in here.’
“But there are a lot of facets towards Bellingham. It looks like Liverpool’s transfer business, in terms of incomings, is finished.
“They are already stocked in midfield. Fabio Carvalho can play there, and let’s not forget Harvey Elliott is coming back now and was playing on merit at the start of last season before his horrific injury at Leeds. So he is another option for Jurgen Klopp.
“There are seven or eight options in the middle, and with Borussia Dortmund’s situation, they have already lost Erling Haaland, are they going to want to lose another player?
“Looking at the transfer fee, you are looking at £100million for Jude Bellingham who, don’t get me wrong, he will probably be worth that, but does he need another year in Bundesliga? Probably.
“He is only 19, and it’s scary how young he is, with 15 caps for England already.
“But he is one of the midfielders Liverpool fans would like, more attack-minded compared to some of the other options who are already there.
“Six goals and 14 assists in 43 games for Dortmund, which is not a bad return for a players of his age.
“Let’s hope Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund face off in the Champions League, because he didn’t exactly hide his admiration for Darwin Nunez when they played Benfica.
“But for me, I can’t really see any significant others coming in at Anfield, I think that’s their transfer window done, certainly when it comes to big players coming in.” | https://www.liverpoolworld.uk/sport/football/liverpool/liverpool-not-likely-move-jude-bellingham-just-yet-despite-transfer-links-3757049 | 2022-07-05T18:53:01Z | https://www.liverpoolworld.uk/sport/football/liverpool/liverpool-not-likely-move-jude-bellingham-just-yet-despite-transfer-links-3757049 | false | 1 |
The European Commission (EC) has approved the expanded conditional marketing authorization (CMA) of Novavax’s NVAX Nuvaxovid (NVX-CoV2373) COVID-19 vaccine in the European Union (EU) for adolescents aged between 12 and 17 years.
The conditional authorization was supported by the data readout from PREVENT-19 study, a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of Nuvaxovid in adolescents aged 12 through 17 years across 73 sites in the United States.
Nuvaxovid achieved its primary effectiveness endpoint and demonstrated 80% clinical efficacy overall at a time when the Delta variant was the predominant circulating SARS-CoV-2 strain in the United States.
Stanley C. Erck, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, ”With this authorization, we are extremely pleased to be able to offer our Nuvaxovid COVID-19 vaccine to adolescents in the EU. Our protein-based vaccine was developed using an innovative approach to traditional technology and has demonstrated efficacy and safety in both adolescents and adults.”
The European regulatory agency has granted conditional marketing authorization (CMA) for Nuvaxovid to prevent COVID-19 in individuals aged 18 and over in the month of Dec, 2021.
Price Action: Novavax shares are trading about 6 percent higher at $60.53 on Tuesday at the time of publication.

Ultra-contagious BA.4, BA.5 subvariants fuel coronavirus spread across much of California
LOS ANGELES — In a sign of how the new coronavirus wave continues to spread across California, two-thirds of the state’s counties are now in the high COVID-19 community level, in which the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends universal masking in indoor public spaces.
This comes as health officials are warning of concerning weeks ahead as two new ultra-contagious omicron subvariants — BA.4 and BA.5 — spread. Experts believe the subvariants, which are are not only especially contagious but also capable of reinfecting those who have survived earlier omicron infection, are a major factor behind the continued persistence of coronavirus transmission across California.
So far, Los Angeles County health officials have not imposed new masking rules. But they have warned that might be necessary, perhaps later in July, if new coronavirus-positive hospitalizations continue to rise. Though experts are concerned, there is still uncertainty about how serious a summer wave will get.
“With the continued increase in cases, and now as you’re seeing the corresponding increase in hospitalizations … we’re really worried,” L.A. County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer said Thursday.
The California Department of Public Health has strongly recommended universal mask wearing in indoor public spaces ever since the state’s universal mask order expired in February.
On Thursday, the most populous counties in California that entered the high COVID-19 community level for the first time since spring began are Kern, San Francisco, Ventura and San Mateo.
Ventura County on Thursday became the first Southern California county to enter the high COVID-19 community level since the first omicron wave faded.
COVID-19 community levels factor in coronavirus case and hospitalization rates.
Of California’s 58 counties, 38 are in the high COVID-19 community level, which factors in coronavirus case and hospitalization rates. Some 16 million Californians live in those counties, accounting for 42% of the state’s population.
They include counties in the San Joaquin and Sacramento valleys, the San Francisco Bay Area, and much of rural Northern California.
Throughout late March and all of April and May, not a single California county was in the high COVID-19 community level, which factors in coronavirus case and hospitalization rates. But that changed at the beginning of June.
Los Angeles County has so far remained in the medium COVID-19 community level, where it has remained since mid-May.
Health officials have said they would reimpose a universal mask mandate in indoor public spaces for people age 2 and over should L.A. County fall into the high COVID-19 community level for two consecutive weeks. L.A. County would retain a universal mask mandate until it returns to the medium COVID-19 community level, or lower, for two consecutive weeks.
Coronavirus case rates in California have reached a stubborn plateau for the past month, reversing what seemed to be tantalizing signs in mid-June that cases were starting to fall.
The data — as well as signs that yet another new pair of omicron subvariants, BA.4 and BA.5, are dominating cases nationwide — are helping to explain why it seems as though so many people across California are reporting new infections. Officials say BA.4 and BA.5 appear to have an ability to reinfect people who have survived earlier omicron strains.
As of Friday, Los Angeles County was averaging about 5,300 coronavirus cases a day, or 367 cases a week for every 100,000 residents, a 20% increase from the previous week. It’s the highest case rate in L.A. County since early February.
A rate of 100 or more cases a week for every 100,000 residents is considered high. Most counties in California have weekly case rates in excess of 200.
The San Francisco Bay Area still has California’s highest case rate of 351 cases a week for every 100,000 residents. The Bay Area’s weekly case rate has fluctuated between about 280 to 420 in June.
As of Friday, Southern California’s weekly case rate is 299; Greater Sacramento, 266; the San Joaquin Valley, 255; and rural Northern California, 200, according to the L.A. Times’ California coronavirus tracker.
California has recorded a 12% increase in coronavirus cases compared with mid-June, tallying an average of more than 16,900 per day over the last week, according to data compiled by the L.A. Times. On a per capita basis, that’s 303 cases a week for every 100,000 residents. | https://www.pressdemocrat.com/article/news/ultra-contagious-ba-4-ba-5-subvariants-fuel-coronavirus-spread-across-much/ | 2022-07-05T18:56:41Z | https://www.pressdemocrat.com/article/news/ultra-contagious-ba-4-ba-5-subvariants-fuel-coronavirus-spread-across-much/ | false | 18 |
Tim "Sharky" Ward, a former Gold Coast club owner who fled Queensland for Thailand in 2009, has spoken out about his transformation after looking almost unrecognisable in a recent photo shared on TikTok.
Ward's dramatic weight loss was revealed upon his return to the Gold Coast, a move that appeared to be prompted by the pandemic.
Ward became known as the "Shark of Pattaya" and developed a cult following among locals.
Speaking to the Gold Coast Bulletin, Ward said his new love for motorbikes, paired with intermittent fasting, helped him cut weight dramatically.

Advertise with NZME."I got into intermittent fasting because it's good for you," Ward said.
"I'm carrying too much weight to do it properly. You can't be 120kg and go out into the bush on a bike – you ride about a kilometre and then you gas out.
"I want to get to 110kg but I just can't do it because of my big Kiwi bones."
Ward said he was leaving his former Glitter Strip lifestyle behind for good.
"I'll never be part of that again," he said.
"It was a part of my life, but it's gone now – I just want to chill out, ride my dirt bikes and relax."
He has amassed significant wealth at various times of his life, including at one stage owning three Lamborghinis. His is an incredible rise to fortune from his beginnings as an orphan in New Zealand.
Part of this was because of the extreme interest rates he was known to charge on his loans – in some cases as much as 200 per cent.

Advertise with NZME.There were reports Ward went to Thailand after learning of an Australian Federal Police investigation into his activities.
Ward has openly admitted sleeping with sex workers in Thailand and said he enjoyed how easy it was to pay off police on the island paradise.
"I don't have to wear a shirt. I don't have to abide by the rules and if I do break the rules, I just pay," he was quoted as saying previously.
The former gangster has also shared intermittent updates to his Facebook page, which has 60,000 followers.
"I been flat broke and I been a multimillionaire. The happy place is definitely somewhere in between," he said. | https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/kiwi-gangster-tim-sharky-ward-reveals-secret-of-his-transformation/3Y4G2ZX6JFMNNWFAFD2XUJ6UII/?c_id=1&objectid=12536153 | 2022-07-05T18:58:56Z | https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/kiwi-gangster-tim-sharky-ward-reveals-secret-of-his-transformation/3Y4G2ZX6JFMNNWFAFD2XUJ6UII/?c_id=1&objectid=12536153 | true | 3 |

Jeff Bezos‘s new $500 million, 417-foot super yacht will still hit the high seas even after plans to DISMANTLE the historic Netherlands bridge fell through.
People were outraged at the plan.
The bridge is 145 years old and was damaged in World War II. It was one of the first things to be rebuilt after the war. The bridge is a monument to history and when the Council refurbished it, they said it would never be dismantled again.
Now Bezos wants it dismantled. The Bezos ship is too tall to get under the bridge. He would pay for it, of course, but the people are angry. People said they would throw things at everyone sailing the ship if they tried it.
The plans are dismantled as a result.
However, the vessel isn’t stuck. They can get it through without taking the bridge down. They simply went to Plan B.
All that talk about the yacht being stuck was fake news.

Joe Rogan made his return to UFC commentary at UFC 276 and donned some unusual attire that caught the eye of the internet – and it’s safe to say they’ve had their fun with it.
When he’s not hosting the Joe Rogan Experience or traveling the United States with his one-man comedy set, Joe Rogan can usually be found behind the commentary desk at UFC events.
While many of his co-commentators and fellow analysts are usually dressed to the nines for fights, Rogan is a bit more dressed down – and it is rare to see him kitted out in a three-piece suit while screaming about knockouts and submissions.
UFC 276, which took place on July 2nd, marked Rogan’s return to commentary after a bit of a brief break. He matched his fellow analysts by wearing a suit for the occasion, and the internet couldn’t help but bust out some jokes about his look.
With the broadcast getting underway, the commentary team introduced themselves in their regular manner – with Rogan standing front and center in a black suit. His tie was a bit messed up, however, and the internet quickly jumped all over it.
As images of Rogan’s look worked their way around social media, plenty of onlookers lined up some zingers to poke fun at him. “Rogan dressed like a Reservoir Dog after the heist goes wrong,” said MMA journalist Jed Goodman. “This man is dressed like he’s just been to the funeral of a family member he doesn’t give a f**k about,” added another viewer.
Some fans said that they simply didn’t recognize Rogan given he was wearing a suit. “What in the Multiverse is this?” asked another fan, confused by his look.

Other onlookers suggested that Rogan’s look may have had something to do with Lex Friedman – a regular guest on his podcast – given the similarities between them. “Man lost a bet to Lex Friedman,” commented one.
Seeing as Rogan doesn’t read his social media replies – or hate comments – he’ll probably have to wait until someone else flags it for him. Though, it could make for an entertaining segment on his next podcast. | https://www.dexerto.com/entertainment/joe-rogan-returns-to-ufc-and-the-internet-cant-help-but-roast-his-look-1862273/ | 2022-07-05T19:06:26Z | https://www.dexerto.com/entertainment/joe-rogan-returns-to-ufc-and-the-internet-cant-help-but-roast-his-look-1862273/ | false | 1 |
The Guardian view on the cabinet resignations: endgame for Boris Johnson
The prime minister’s dissembling, his taste for obfuscation and self-serving half-truths, and his willingness to mislead are by now sadly familiar. To that extent, it came as no surprise on Tuesday to learn that Boris Johnson had indeed – despite multiple assertions to the contrary – been told of specific sexual misconduct allegations prior to appointing Chris Pincher as deputy chief whip. But sooner or later a tipping point was coming for ministers obliged to trash their own reputations to defend a dishonest, delinquent prime minister. On Tuesday night it came.
The seemingly coordinated resignations of the chancellor, Rishi Sunak, and the health secretary, Sajid Javid, surely signal that the waters are closing over Mr Johnson’s premiership. It had already become clear that a succession of scandals – and above all the prime ministerial contempt for the public demonstrated by Partygate – had done irreparable damage to Mr Johnson’s standing. But it took Tuesday’s extraordinary, devastating intervention by Simon McDonald, a former top civil servant at the Foreign Office, to convince Mr Sunak and Mr Javid to act.
Lord McDonald has spent a distinguished career exercising discreet influence at the top of government, advising foreign secretaries and prime ministers. His decision to publicly refute Mr Johnson’s version of events in relation to Mr Pincher was a highly unusual move made in exceptional circumstances. Exasperated by a prime minister whose claims he knew from direct experience not to be true, Lord McDonald decided to dispense with etiquette and demolish Downing Street’s defence of Mr Pincher’s appointment. In doing so, he starkly confronted Mr Johnson’s cabinet with its own complicity in propping up a premiership that has plumbed the depths of impropriety.
Over the past five days, hapless ministers have once again been sent to television studios to defend the indefensible and made to look like fools. A majority of Conservative backbenchers believe he should go, judging by the recent confidence vote that Mr Johnson won only with the help of those on the government payroll. The party’s catastrophic defeat in the Tiverton and Honiton byelection testified to the extent of grassroots Tory disillusionment with the prime minister’s leadership. A string of scandals involving sexual misconduct has joined Partygate in the public mind in defining an administration perpetually mired in unseemly controversy.
Against this dire backdrop, Mr Johnson on Tuesday tried to duck and dive his way towards the summer recess. Dispatched to answer an urgent question on the Pincher affair, the paymaster general, Michael Ellis, told the House of Commons that the prime minister had forgotten being told about specific complaints against Mr Pincher in 2019. This was greeted with incredulous guffaws by MPs, as was Mr Ellis’s claim that a “sophisticated and robust system for upholding public standards” in government remained in place. Far too late in the day, Mr Johnson then apologised for appointing Mr Pincher.
Britain deserves better than a prime minister who has become a laughing stock, presiding over a rudderless administration at a time of economic crisis. In the interests of preserving their own self-respect, other members of Mr Johnson’s cabinet must now follow the example of Mr Sunak and Mr Javid. The prime minister needs to be confronted with the truth: his time is up. | https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/guardian-view-cabinet-resignations-endgame-185411398.html?src=rss | 2022-07-05T19:08:10Z | https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/guardian-view-cabinet-resignations-endgame-185411398.html?src=rss | false | 2 |

West Virginia expects second year growth from LB Dixon
Neal Brown didn’t hold back when discussing the potential of redshirt junior linebacker Lance Dixon.
“My expectation is for Lance Dixon to make huge jump going from year one to year two,” the fourth-year Mountaineers head coach said. “He’s had a good off-season.”
Dixon, 6-foot-2, 214-pounds, utilized a full off-season in the strength and conditioning program with the football program to put himself in a much better situation than where he was a season ago.
Because he elected to leave Penn State through the transfer portal, the Michigan native didn’t have the benefit of going through a full off-season of conditioning last winter and spring.
After he arrived in Morgantown, Dixon was thrust into action and while he displayed flashes at times overall he never was able to capture the element of consistency. That winter away from the weight room was a wake-up call to Dixon who realized that it is essential in order to prepare for the grind of the Big 12 Conference schedule. That made the past few months critical in his development.
“Right now, I feel way better. I feel like I can do a lot more, have a lot more stamina and feel like I can do a lot more things,” Dixon said.
It made things more difficult for Dixon as he was asked to play outside the box more than he did during his time with the Nittany Lions so he was technically not only adjusting to a new location but a new position as well. Luckily playing outside the box is something he is comfortable with and his new spot affords him the opportunity to do that around 50-percent of the time.
“I like how they let their WILLs run out in space and do more things,” he said.
An athletic specimen, Dixon certainly looks the part this spring and has dropped around 10-pounds while increasing his speed in the process. That part of his game is one of the strong suits and he enjoys any chance that he is given to flash his speed on the football field.
Dixon played in 10 games last season, starting 4 of those, and finished with a total of 36 tackles. Admittedly he didn’t start to feel comfortable in his role until mid-way through the season and dealt with an injury that sidelined him for a pair of games as well.
“It set my back physically but I stayed in the playbook trying to learn more and the bowl game I felt way better,” Dixon said.
The former four-star prospect selected West Virginia in large part because of that freedom that he is given to play more than just as an in-the-box linebacker. He did visit campus as a sophomore in high school for a camp, but things never really progressed further than that under the previous staff.
But when it was time to leave Penn State, the opportunity at West Virginia was just too good to pass up.
“It seemed like the best option for me,” he said.
Now, the Mountaineers are hoping the time spent both learning the scheme and shaping his body will have Dixon primed to make that second-year leap as a standout on the defense.

WASHINGTON (AP) — NASA said Tuesday it has lost contact with a $32.7 million spacecraft headed to the moon to test out a lopsided lunar orbit, but agency engineers are hopeful they can fix the problem.
After one successful communication and a second partial one on Monday, the space agency said it could no longer communicate with the spacecraft called Capstone. Engineers are trying to find the cause of the communications drop-off and are optimistic they can fix it, NASA spokesperson Sarah Frazier said Tuesday.
The spacecraft, which launched from New Zealand on June 28, had spent nearly a week in Earth orbit and had been successfully kick-started on its way to the moon, when contact was lost, Frazier said.
The 55-pound satellite is the size of a microwave oven and will be the first spacecraft to try out this oval orbit, which is where NASA wants to stage its Gateway outpost. Gateway would serve as a staging point for astronauts before they descend to the lunar surface.
The orbit balances the gravities of Earth and the moon and so requires little maneuvering and therefore fuel and allows the satellite — or a space station — to stay in constant contact with Earth. | https://www.myplainview.com/news/article/NASA-Contact-lost-with-spacecraft-on-way-to-test-17285612.php | 2022-07-05T19:13:17Z | https://www.myplainview.com/news/article/NASA-Contact-lost-with-spacecraft-on-way-to-test-17285612.php | true | 35 |
The Florida teenager who survived a shark attack last week will have part of her right leg amputated on Tuesday.
The Taylor County Sheriff's Office said Addison Bethea was scalloping near Grassy Island in water approximately five feet deep when she was attacked by what was described as a 9-foot shark.
Her brother, a firefighter/EMT, fought the animal off and pulled her onto a stranger's boat before she was taken to a local hospital.
According to Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare, Bethea suffered "devastating damage to the soft tissue in her right leg."
On Sunday, the hospital said doctors would amputate just above Bethea's right knee on Tuesday.
"This is the best-case scenario for Addison, and the best option to get her back to the most normal life possible,” Addison’s mother, Michelle, of Satellite Beach, Florida, said in a press release posted on the hospital's Facebook page.
The hospital said doctors restored blood flow to her leg by rebuilding the blood vessels.
"Surgeons will amputate the leg just above the knee and take muscular tissue and skin from the lower leg to wrap around Addison’s femur, reconstructing the upper leg," the hospital said. "This will give Addison the ability to use a prosthesis for her lower leg."
According to the hospital, a GoFundMe has been set up to help her and her family. | https://www.katc.com/news/national/florida-teen-attacked-by-shark-to-undergo-partial-leg-amputation-hospital-says | 2022-07-05T19:14:07Z | https://www.katc.com/news/national/florida-teen-attacked-by-shark-to-undergo-partial-leg-amputation-hospital-says | true | 11 |

Justin Lewitus on Acting as an 'Owner' with your Projects
Through the Nasdaq Internship Program, we offer a variety of professional experiences for emerging talent through an immersive 10 to 12-week internship program. From Stockholm to the U.S., whether it’s in person or remotely, we are getting an inside look at the bright minds and personalities that encompass the next generation of investors, disrupters and leaders.
In honor of internship season, we spoke with Justin Lewitus, Treasury Technology Intern, about acting as an “owner” and owning your projects as an intern.
Tell us a bit about yourself and your position at Nasdaq.
I’m a rising third-year student at Washington University in St. Louis studying Finance, Computer Science, and History, originally from the Boston area. At Nasdaq, I am interning with the Treasury Technology Team. Treasury at Nasdaq is responsible for managing the company’s investments, capital structure, and cash flows, among other functions, and my team maintains and supports the software and systems that allow Treasury to function efficiently.
What is your favorite project you’ve worked on thus far, or one that you’re looking forward to?
I have a lot of projects that I’ll be working on this summer, and a common theme amongst all of them is building automations to increase efficiency. For example, currently, some processes around journal entries involve manual inputs to multiple systems. My task is to use a robotic process automation (RPA) tool to fully automate these tasks, boosting efficiency and eliminating the possibility of human error.
What about Nasdaq stood out the most, now that you are part of the global team?
Nasdaq’s global scope made quite the impression on me. The people on my team are spread between New York, Sweden, and Lithuania. Despite spanning three time zones, it’s quite a high-performing group. Additionally, in my first project, I engaged with Nasdaq’s foreign exchange swaps and ensured that our system calendar functioned across the world’s various time zones, currencies, and holidays.
What is your goal as a #NasdaqFam intern? How is Nasdaq supporting your long-term goals?
One of my main goals is to figure out how I can be as productive as possible during the workday, as I am still developing my personal style. Everyone in the #NasdaqFam is incredibly willing to share what works for them, which I appreciate. Great advice I’ve received so far includes closing my computer during lunch to clear my mind and shifting to a standing desk for a few minutes every hour. The best thing about Nasdaq is that my coworkers encourage me to do whatever works best for me rather than imposing a set structure on my day.
What advice would you give to future interns?
“Act as an Owner.” This Nasdaq core value resonates with me the most. The people at Nasdaq make the company special, so take the initiative to meet them. Even something as simple as introducing yourself while grabbing a cup of coffee can lead to a long-term connection beyond just the summer. “Act as an Owner” applies to your work too. The projects you complete will have a real-world impact, so push yourself to create the best product you can. And if pushing yourself involves mistakes, that’s okay! The people at Nasdaq will support you every step of the way in achieving whatever you set your mind to.
What’s a fun fact about yourself?
I’m a geography nerd. Back in middle school, I placed in the top 20 in Massachusetts in the National Geographic Bee. I can name all the capitals and flags of the world, and I’m almost there on currencies and official languages.

I think that it’s important to establish some sort of routine during the week, as otherwise, you might find yourself overspending on things like going out for dinner, museums, or other activities. My routine involves rock climbing three times a week after work. Even though it is a monthly expense, having some sort of structure to my evenings keeps me grounded and prevents me from spending too much on one-time experiences.

Eva Herzigova, the supermodel, looks good at 40. It’s not exactly a shocker is it? But when she cites vodka, and not a colourist who is like a brother, as the secret to her Marilyn-esque hair it does make us double-take and say: ‘Sorry, whaaaat?’
The Wonderbra poster girl swears by it though; ‘I use it [vodka] to lighten my blonde hair and it really works,’ she admitted recently. How extraordinary; that’s one way to get through ‘dry January’, I suppose.
It did get Glossip Girl thinking, however, whether this was a one-off, something only the Czech model does, or whether there are other stars turning away from beauty products and into their gardens, kitchen and even liquor cabinets for beauty solutions. And as it turns out, there are…
Catherine Zeta Jones uses alcohol on her hair too; ‘I condition my hair with honey and beer. I smell like the bottom of a beer barrel for days afterwards, but it’s very good for the hair.’ And she doesn’t stop there; ‘I use a mixture of honey and salt all over my body to moisturise and exfoliate. You wash it off and your skin is gorgeous.’ | https://www.getthegloss.com/beauty/hair/glossip-girl-celebs-and-their-alternative-beauty-therapies | 2022-07-05T19:32:43Z | https://www.getthegloss.com/beauty/hair/glossip-girl-celebs-and-their-alternative-beauty-therapies | true | 1 |
“The completion of this transaction is pending due diligence - which both teams are working on as we speak.

This comes a day after Vauld decided to suspend all deposits and withdrawals amid broader volatility in the cryptocurrency market and as the platform was facing financial challenges. It recorded customer withdrawals of over $197.7 million since June 12.
“The decline of the cryptocurrency market was triggered by the collapse of Terraform Lab’s UST stablecoin, Celsius network pausing withdrawals, and Three Arrows Capital defaulting on their loans,” Bathija had said in a company’s statement on Monday.

Most of its customers are in the United States, followed by India, he had told ET in an earlier interaction. In June, Vauld had laid off 30% of its workforce as signs of a freezing Crypto winter became imminent.
The company had raised $27 million as of July last year from venture capital firms, including Pantera Capital, Coinbase Ventures, CMT Digital, Gumi Cryptos, Robert Leshner, and Cadenza Capital.
Founded in 2018 by Bathija and Sanju Kurian, Vauld provides a suite of products to crypto investors, including fixed deposits and asset-backed lending and borrowing platforms.
ET reported on June 21 that the collapse of Terra’s blockchain native token Luna - which reportedly erased $40 billion from the crypto market - has had a cascading effect.
While a decade-old crypto hedge fund and an active backer of Web3 startups, Three Arrows Capital, has filed for bankruptcy, another crypto lender Celsius network is reportedly exploring options including deals and restructuring its liabilities, and has laid off 150 employees. | https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/tech/technology/crypto-lender-nexo-plans-to-buy-fellow-lender-vauld/articleshow/92676421.cms | 2022-07-05T19:33:49Z | https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/tech/technology/crypto-lender-nexo-plans-to-buy-fellow-lender-vauld/articleshow/92676421.cms | false | 1 |

Fourth suspect arrested, three suspects still wanted in connection with ECSO drug bust
Escambia County Sheriff's Office deputies on Wednesday arrested a fourth person in connection to a mid-June multi-agency drug bust.
Larry Hartley , 34, was charged with seven drug and weapons related felonies, including possessing a weapon as a convicted felon.
Hartley was released Wednesday evening on $20,000 bond.
The charges are related to search warrants served June 15 at three homes in the 3800 block of West Jordan Street and two additional homes in the 2400 block of West Belmont Street and 8000 block of Cayenne Way.
Bust announced: ECSO seized hundreds of thousands in contraband, warrants out for suspects

Deputies recovered 3.5 pounds of meth, a pound of marijuana, 32 grams of fentanyl, 8.1 grams of cocaine, 8.5 grams of marijuana edibles, 13.4 grams of MDMA, 4.2 grams of heroin, 5.6 grams of oxycodone, a quantity of promethazine and two pints of promethazine mixed with codeine during the June 15 search.
They also found $17,947 in cash, 10 guns and nearly $100,000 in jewelry while seizing five vehicles.
After the ECSO released a video June 22 detailing the search and seizure, Anthony Moore, Andrea Howard and Cubie Ball were arrested on suspicion of narcotics and weapons felonies. Moore, Howard and Ball bonded out of jail the same day they were arrested.
Others arrested: ECSO arrests three suspects sought in multi-agency drug bust; four more being sought
Kellie Langley, Marcus Faggard and Kewauntez Matthews were still wanted on narcotics charges regarding the drug bust.
Sheriff Chip Simmons said the narcotics operation was done with the assistance of the U.S. Postal Inspectors Service, Drug Enforcement Administration, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Pensacola Police Department and the U.S. Army National Guard.

Omicron’s new BA.4, BA.5 subvariants: How worried should we be?
Thai health authorities are keeping a close eye on two new Omicron subvariants – BA.4 and BA.5 – that are fast becoming dominant COVID-19 strains across the world.
Dr Supakit Sirilak, who leads the Department of Medical Sciences, said BA.4 and BA.5 accounted for 51.7 percent of all COVID-19 infections in Thailand between June 25 and July 1. This percentage is based on an analysis of 948 Omicron cases during that period.
Elsewhere, these subvariants are driving fresh COVID-19 outbreaks in at least 110 nations, raising the number of global infections by 20percent overall. The two subvariants are also being blamed for soaring casualties in three of the six world regions monitored by the World Health Organization (WHO).

Charges: Man struck and killed juvenile bicyclist in Scott County
CEDAR LAKE TOWNSHIP, Minn. -- A 72-year-old man is being charged with vehicular homicide after hitting and killing a 15-year-old bicyclist on the evening of July 1.
The Scott County Sheriff's Office was dispatched to an accident involving a vehicle and a bicyclist near the intersection of Zachary Avenue and 260th Street West around 7:14 p.m. last Friday. The person who reported the accident said the suspect vehicle had left the scene.
Officers confirmed the victim's death and began to establish the scene when a man, later identified as Joseph Friedges, approached a deputy, saying he had been involved in the accident and hit the victim on the bicycle.
Friedges stated he was heading eastbound on 260th Street approaching Zachary Avenue with his cruise control set to 55 miles per hour. He says he sneezed and went into the south ditch, not realizing he hit anyone until he looked back and saw the body in the road.
Officers speaking to Friedges say they noted an odor of alcohol and observed red eyes, as well as a box of Smirnoff in the back seat of Friedges' car.
Friedges admitted to drinking a couple of Sprite and Vodkas a couple of hours before driving and agreed to perform a field sobriety test. A preliminary breath test showed a result of .05 BCA.
Officers say they believe the victim was near the shoulder of Zachary Avenue and 260th Street E when he was struck.
Police say the vehicle, while traveling eastbound on 260th Avenue, crossed into the westbound lane and into the north ditch before reentering the roadway and striking the victim.
Friedges is set to appear in court on July 18, where he faces charges of vehicular homicide - operating a motor vehicle in a grossly negligent manner and operating a vehicle with negligence - under the influence of alcohol.

New Delhi, July 5: The windfall taxes on domestic crude oil production and fuel exports will generate close to USD 12 billion (Rs 94,800 crore) for the government in the remainder of the current fiscal while trimming profits of firms such as Reliance Industries Ltd and ONGC, Moody’s Investors Service said Tuesday.
On July 1, the government imposed windfall gain taxes on the export of petrol, diesel and aviation turbine fuel (ATF), and on the domestic production of crude oil. It has also mandated exporters to meet the requirements of the domestic market first.
“The tax increase will reduce the profits of Indian crude producers and oil exporters like Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) and Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Ltd (ONGC),” Moody’s said in its comments on the new taxes.
Following the government’s announcement, Indian oil companies will have to pay Rs 6 per litre (around USD 12.2 per barrel) on exports of petrol and ATF, and Rs 13 per litre (around USD 26.3 per barrel) on exports of diesel. At the same time, upstream producers will have to pay taxes of Rs 23,250 per tonne (around USD 38.2 per barrel) of crude oil produced in India.
“Based on the production of crude oil and export of petroleum products in India in the fiscal year ended on March 31, 2022 (fiscal 2021), we estimate that the government will generate close to USD 12 billion of additional revenue for the remainder of fiscal 2022,” the rating agency said.
The additional revenue will help to offset the negative impact of a reduction in excise duties for petrol and diesel announced in late May to tame soaring inflation.
In May 2022, the government announced a cut in the excise duty of Rs 8 per litre on petrol and Rs 6 a litre on diesel, which is estimated to have reduced its revenues by Rs 1 lakh crore.
“Significant additional tax revenue will offset fiscal pressure on the sovereign,” it said.
“We expect this government measure to be temporary and that taxes will be eventually adjusted according to market conditions, including considerations related to inflation, external balances and currency depreciation.”
Moody’s said higher revenue also supports its view that the gradual fiscal consolidation trend will continue, notwithstanding associated risks posed by the current inflationary environment, such as higher subsidy spending.
“India’s higher export duties for fuel products will curtail export receipts, but the concurrent announcement of higher customs duties on gold imports will serve to limit a further widening of the current account deficit. The country’s large foreign exchange reserves remain sufficient to preempt any issues concerning the repayment of external debt despite the weakening of the rupee,” it said.
The rating agency said the rise in tax payments is not expected to materially weaken the RIL or ONGC’s credit quality because their margins will continue to be healthy.
“High crude oil prices will support the earnings of oil producers. And while profits generated from oil exports will fall because of windfall taxes, they will likely remain higher than the levels over April 2020 to March 2022 if refining margins are sustained at the highs seen in April to June this year,” it said.
The increase in government taxes will limit the earnings upside for RIL’s exports, but will not materially affect its solid credit quality and excellent liquidity. RIL is the largest exporter of petroleum products from India.
In the fiscal year ended March 2022, the company generated about 41 per cent of consolidated EBITDA from its oil-to-chemicals business.
The increase in taxes on crude oil production will reduce ONGC’s margins, but this is mitigated by current high oil prices and the company’s low cost of production, Moody’s said.

NASA calls ‘mystery’ rocket crash on moon highly unusual
NASA said a rocket of unknown national origin that crashed into the moon earlier this year produced a double crater on the surface, an unexpected feat.
The agency’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, which collects data on the moon, spotted two craters after the “mystery rocket body” collided with the moon on March 4, NASA said recently .
Help NASA hunt for storms on JupiterIt created an eastern crater about 19.5 yards in diameter and a western crater about 17.5 yards in diameter.
The agency said the double crater might indicate that the rocket had a large mass on each end of it. A rocket that has used up its fuel usually will just have its mass on the end with the motor, with the other side being an empty fuel tank.
The rocket’s origin is uncertain, but the double crater that it produced might reveal its identity, according to the release.
A rocket body hitting the moon has not created a double crater before, the release states.
The Houston Chronicle reported Thursday that no space-exploring country has claimed the rocket as their own so far.

B.C. high-school students will now be able to earn credits for First Nations language and culture programs through the expansion of the External Credentials Program (ECP).
Changes enacted July 1, allow First Nations to create and approve language and cultural learning programs, to be recognized by the Ministry of Education and Child Care as external credentials that students can use toward graduating, a Ministry of Education and Child Care news release said.
First Nations will lead the identification of graduation-credit eligible language and culture programs and oversee the delivery of these learning opportunities, including student attainment of an appropriate level of performance and proficiency.
For new programs to be eligible as external credentials, they must have a level of depth and rigour comparable to Grade 10, 11 and 12 courses and ensure that a subject matter expert will assess student performance.
“The ministry is pleased to work in partnership with the First Nations Education Steering Committee to enable students to receive credit toward graduation for First Nations language and culture teaching that takes place outside of their regular school program,” said Jennifer Whiteside, minister of education and child care. “This new external credential option recognizes the valuable learning opportunities that First Nations provide to youth in their communities.”
Examples of language and culture programs that could count for an external credential under the expanded ECP include First Nations language proficiency, drumming or dancing, an on-the-land learning program, a traditional medicine or food program, carvings and traditional art and a traditional sports program.
“The First Nations Education Steering Committee appreciates this important expansion of the External Credentials Program to respect the important work being done by First Nations to promote our students’ language and culture skills and knowledge,” said First Nations Education Steering Committee president Tyrone McNeil. “This change is a meaningful part of our ongoing partnership with the Ministry of Education and Child Care to make the B.C. education system more relevant and responsive to our students and our communities.”
Some of the external credentials may count for credit toward required courses for the B.C. Dogwood Diploma, for example, arts education or applied design, while others may count as credit toward elective courses for graduation. Certain external credentials can also provide credits toward the adult graduation diploma.
The expansion of the ECP allows other new organizations and credentials to be recognized and this is the first time there have been significant changes since 2010.
The new changes to the ECP are separate from the Province’s Indigenous-focused graduation requirement, which will require all students to take four credits of Indigenous courses to graduate, starting in the 2023–2024 school year.

Chart of the week: are bombed-out easyJet shares now a buy?
4th July 2022 12:39
The market has satisfied all requirements for easyJet shares to stage a counter-trend rally phase. Technical analyst John Burford explains what that might mean for the share price.
As the highly negative effects of the pandemic lockdowns that grounded flights since early 2020 were easing, there was hope that the travel industry could get back on its feet. But not so. The recent well-publicised flight cancellations and airport scenes of chaos has dealt it another blow.
The shares of easyJet (LSE:EZJ) have crashed as operating losses have mounted. But have they discounted all or most of the bad news? After all, how much worse can conditions get?
- Shares for the future: 25 shares I think are good value right now
- FIRE movement exposed: is it really possible to retire at 40?
This is the disaster story on the long-term monthly chart. From highs of around £18 to the current £3.70 area, they have fallen off a cliff by a staggering 80%.
So here is my bullish case:
Past performance is not a guide to future performance.
There are a couple of notable features to this chart. First, the entire decline appears to be a three down in an a-b-c. That is a corrective pattern to the main major uptrend.
Second, the 'c' wave is in a clear five-wave 'ending diagonal' pattern with overlapping waves (the wave 4 high is higher than the wave 1 low). With the new low just made in wave 5, the market has satisfied all requirements to stage a counter-trend rally phase.
- ii view: easyJet cuts summer flights as it battles staff shortages
- What an inflation shock really looks like
- Why reading charts can help you become a better investor
Third, there is a good momentum divergence between waves 5 and 3. This indicates the selling pressure is easing into the new lows as buyers start to take control. This momentum divergence is particularly strong when viewed on the daily and weekly charts.
And fourth, the market has entered massive chart support from the 2004-2012 period. It would take a great deal of selling pressure to break below that.
Consider we are approaching the height of the holiday travel season when the industry must be pulling out all the stops to solve the well-known staffing and pilot problems to reduce the cancellation rate.
Also, aviation fuel prices seem to be easing off their highs (US gasoline prices are 18% off) and, if they fall further, that would help reduce operating costs.
So, is there light at the end of the runway? I believe so, and the shares should be at or very near a major low. My first target is around £8.50 with higher potential.

CLEVELAND, July 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- A new Freedonia Group analysis finds that expanding regulatory support for the adoption of EVs by governments worldwide will boost sales of these units through 2026.
In particular, European nations have been global leaders in adopting target dates for the complete phaseout of sales of new ICE vehicles – including hybrids. Norway has the most ambitious target, aiming to reach 100% electric in new car sales by 2025, while several other European nations have set deadlines of 2030 or 2035. The European Commission has also shown signals of potentially implementing an EU-wide phaseout date of 2035.
Western Europe already had the world's highest penetration of HEVs in 2021, according to the Freedonia Group, and the region is expected to account for an increased share of demand by 2026. Eastern Europe is expected to register even faster growth, as EV penetration rates in the region are much lower and EU countries in the area will need to quickly adapt in the event that the organization adopts a blanket phaseout date.
While the US was the world's third largest HEV market in 2021, sales as a share of total motor vehicle sales were below the global average and well below levels seen in other high-income nations. US adoption of BEVs in particular has been hindered by cultural and geographic factors that lead to greater concern over EV vehicle range and performance. The US is expected to post strong growth in HEV adoption through 2026, but market penetration will continue to trail that in Europe and high-income Asian nations. However, the US could be a stronger driver of growth in the 2030s, when European HEV markets begin to mature.
Global Hybrid & Electric Vehicles provides historical data (2011, 2016, and 2021) and forecasts for 2026 and 2031 for global hybrid and electric vehicle demand in units by type, region, and country.
HEVs are classified into the following types:
- full hybrids, including mild hybrids
- plug-in hybrids
- battery electric
- fuel cell electric

Which vegan protein powder is best?
With the popularity of plant-based diets booming, the time for stereotypes about weak or sickly vegans is over. Vegan protein powder is perfect for gym-goers and those looking to build muscle.
Plant-based protein powders can use a variety of protein sources and come in many flavors. Whether you follow a vegan diet or have experienced unpleasant digestive issues from whey protein in the past, you have plenty of options to choose from.
What is vegan protein powder?
While non-vegan protein powder is usually made with whey from milk, vegan protein powder is made from plant-based protein sources. It’s a great alternative to dairy-based powders for vegans, those who are lactose intolerant or anyone who simply doesn’t get on well with whey protein. Common protein sources include pea, soy, brown rice and hemp, but most contain a blend of several proteins.
- Soy protein: Not only is soy a complete protein, containing all nine essential amino acids, it’s also extremely protein dense.
- Pea protein: Peas are almost as protein-dense as soy, so pea protein is a great choice for anyone intolerant to soy. However, it can have a grainy texture if it isn’t mixed well.
- Brown rice protein: With the starch extracted, brown rice is an excellent source of protein. That said, it’s best in a blend with other protein sources as it contains just one amino acid.
- Hemp protein: Hemp contains an impressive 20 amino acids, including all nine essential ones. What’s more, it’s rich in omega 3 and 6.
Vegan protein powder flavors
Like whey-based protein powders, vegan versions come in a wide range of flavors. Chocolate and vanilla are two of the most common options, but you’ll also find flavors such as berry, tropical fruits, chai and birthday cake. You can also buy unflavored protein powder, which is great if you like to flavor your own protein shakes or blend protein powder into smoothies.

If there's one word to describe what I consider before getting started on my beauty regime for Fashion Week, it's this: longevity. When I'm working twelve hour days, running between shows, filing copy from cafes and interviewing top designers at ten o'clock at night, the last thing I have time to worry about is my make-up.
That said, it's not like I can turn up bare faced with my hair scraped back into a greasy ponytail; there's a certain obligation to look at least a little bit glamorous. So anything I do put on my face or in my hair needs to look as good when I finish my last show as it did when I arrived fresh-faced for my first at nine in the morning.
Here are my can't-live-without beauty products for Fashion Week (which are probably just as useful for busy mums as for fashion journalists).
Can you look every bit the fashionista at London Fashion Week without blowing the budget? Hannah Rochell investigates...
My hair is one thing I can prepare the night before, and if I'm clever I won't need to wash it again for another three days. I used to get a blow-dry to achieve the 'wavy gravy' look before Fashion Week but frankly, I don't have the time and can create the same look myself at home for free.
I find the Babyliss Curling Wand Pro , £25, the easiest tool to use for this, and it's better than using straighteners which can damage the hair because they are too hot to use for tonging. Simply tong small sections of the hair for that cool, beachy tousled look. If you're not sure how to do it, check out the video tutorials on the Hershesons Blow Dry Bar website ( www.hershesons.com ) - it's how I taught myself. By day three, I might add a little dry shampoo to the roots which not only soaks up any greasiness, it also adds to that sexy texture.
Clarins Beauty Flash Balm
I don't wear a lot of make-up for Fashion Week but any I do wear needs to stay put, so I always start with a base of Clarins Beauty Flash Balm , £29. You can't beat it for staying power. Then I'll just pop on a long-lasting but light foundation that doesn't need touching up throughout the day (my favourite is actually rather expensive, so in the interests of frugality I won't mention the brand!) and some cream blusher. Job done.
17 Tattoo Me Semi Permanent Liner
I tested this 17 Tattoo Me Semi Permanent liquid liner , £4.99, for a previous column and have to admit I haven't used it since, because it is such a pain to remove. But I will be applying my cat flicks with it for Fashion Week so I don't have to worry about smudging or fading. I reckon I might even be able to get away with wearing it two days in a row if I remove the rest of my make-up carefully; not something I'd usually advise but when I'm getting home at midnight and then heading back out to the shows at 7.30am I need all the help I can get!
No 7 Moisture Drench Lipstick in Geranium
There's always one day at Fashion Week when I fancy doing a bright lip, and this Moisture Drench one from No7 , £9.50, is by far the best one I have tried for staying power. Not only that, the orange pigment is so eye-catching, I receive many a compliment from fashion editors on the front row (a great way of networking!). Never comes off on your teeth, survives the hurried scoffing of cheese toasties and rarely requires a retouch. Brilliant.
Compeed Blister Plasters
Even your most trusted comfy shoes can become your enemy when you spend all day on your feet. I don't ever wear heels (check out my flat shoes blog - www.enbrogue.com - for a diary of the non-heeled footwear I choose to wear for fashion week) but I've experienced terrible blisters at this time in the fashion calendar. I always carry Compeed Blister Plasters , from £4.25, for emergencies; not only are they the best for combatting the pain, but their discreet design means no one will notice them even if they are protruding out of your shoe.
Illamasqua Speckle Nail Polish and Seche Vite
Along with a blow-dry, a manicure is something I have neither the money nor the inclination to do before Fashion Week, so a decent home polish will have to do. I've recently discovered Illamasqua's Speckle range , £14.50. It has different sized pieces of hexagonal glitter in it, which leaves an effect that’s a little like an egg shell. It's pretty cool but can chip quite easily because of the texture, so I like to finish it off with a coat of Seche Vite , £9, which will make it last longer and leaves a lovely glossy shine.
Lucozade Energy Tablets
It's a myth that fashion folk don't like to eat. Last season I made friends with Lauren Laverne when I produced an emergency packet of crisps at the Giles show and she was a bit peckish. I always try to make time to grab one of the nicest toasted cheese sandwiches I have ever eaten from Fernandez and Wells, the cafe at Somerset House, but often I'll become suddenly, and very urgently hungry. It's not exactly on trend to carry a tupperware box of sandwiches in one hand and your Marni clutch in the other, so instead I'll be packing some Lucozade Energy Tablets , 89p, in my very small bag. They might just see me through to my next show at the Topshop venue; it always has the best catering on offer. Mini beef casserole, anyone?

Emporia State University said the accident involving redshirt sophomore football player Brexten Green happened at Grand Lake in Oklahoma on July 2.
“It’s a terrible day for Emporia State football and just a devastating loss for the Green family,” Emporia State football coach Garin Higgins said.
Green, an Oklahoma native, was getting ready for his second season at Emporia State, according to WIBW. In 2020, he was named District A-3 Player of the Year as a high school senior after gaining 1,720 receiving yards and helped the Cashion Wildcats win a Class A State Championship.
“Our thoughts and prayers go out to his parents Brett and LaMae and the entire family,” Higgins said.
Funeral arrangements will be announced at a later date. Counseling services have been offered for students and staff starting Tuesday, July 5.

A familiar face is returning home to the LCK for the final four weeks of the 2022 LCK Summer Split.
DRX has signed Juhan to its League of Legends roster, the organization announced today. It’s unclear what the team plans to do with its current jungler, Pyosik, who has been with the team since 2019.
Juhan joins the team from time in the PCS as part of PSG Talon, bringing the team to a first-place finish in the 2022 PCS Spring Split and a playoff victory for the squad shortly thereafter. PSG went on to MSI to represent the PCS and advanced to the rumble stage, where they ended fifth place.
PSG Talon had announced mere weeks before the start of the PCS Summer Split that Juhan would be departing from the team alongside mid laner Bay. In their stead, the team signed Burry and Gori, respectively, and are currently tied for third in the region.
The jungler started his career in Korea as part of ASURA, where he began an extended stay in the Korean Challengers scene until eventually joining NS RedForce in 2020. Throughout his career, he’s primarily stuck with Lee Sin, Viego, and Trundle as his top choices, according to Oracle’s Elixir, all of which have been dominant picks in the meta for some time.
DRX are in fourth place in the 2022 LCK Summer Split, behind only Gen.G, T1, and DWG KIA. While they started their split 4-0, the team faced a 0-2 weekend after suffering losses to Liiv SANDBOX and T1. They are set to continue into week four against DWG KIA on Thursday, July 7. | https://dotesports.com/league-of-legends/news/drx-signs-former-psg-talon-jungler-juhan | 2022-07-05T20:09:45Z | https://dotesports.com/league-of-legends/news/drx-signs-former-psg-talon-jungler-juhan | true | 1 |
The United States Women’s National Team opened the 2022 CONCACAF W Championship with a 3-0 against Haiti. Next on the schedule is a match against Jamaica at the Estadio BBVA in Guadalupe. Three points could clinch a spot in the semifinal round and qualification for the 2023 Women’s World Cup.
The two nations have faced off four times, with the USWNT holding a 4-0-0 historical advantage, most recently winning last summer’s friendly by a 4-0 margin. Jamaica reached the competition by finishing atop Group C in qualifying with a 4-0-0 record, rolling past Bermuda, Grenada, the Cayman Islands, and the Dominican Republic, surrendering a mere two goals. Their tournament run opened with a crucial 1-0 win over Mexico.
Lorne Donaldson was appointed to the manager role last month following the departure of interim Vin Blaine, who reported “irreconcilable dressing room differences after the majority of the squad signed a letter to the Jamaica Football Federation” requesting his removal. The former player was previously on the staff but resigned in January 2020 due to what was described as “a lack of integrity and professionalism” in the organization. Citing “familiarity with the football culture and knowledge of the players,” he is expected to receive “all necessary support” in order to “hit the ground running,” quite literally by “working on fitness” in absence of pre-tournament friendlies.
“It’s a good score for us, obviously we got three points,” Donaldson said after defeating Mexico. “It’s a long way to go. We have two more games to go, and we can’t sit around and wait. We can enjoy this game tonight and then we have a few more tough games coming up. We have to try to get some more points out of the next two games.”

Donaldson named a 23-player roster for the competition, with several call-ups who could be considered highly-experienced at the international level. All of the represented clubs and universities are based abroad. Veterans such as Konya Plummer, Dominique Bond-Flasza, and Marlo Sweatman were left off the squad, while Tiffany Cameron was held out with “a minor muscle strain.” Sashana Campbell was included in the Jamaica Football Federation release but not the CONCACAF list.

GOALKEEPERS (3): Rebecca Spencer (Tottenham), Sydney Schneider (Kansas City Current), Yazmeen Jamieson (Simcoe County Rovers)
DEFENDERS (4): Chantelle Swaby (Rangers), Allyson Swaby (Angel City FC), Jayda Hylton-Pelaia (Arizona State University), Satara Murray (Racing Louisville)
MIDFIELDERS (10): Kalyssa Van Zanten (University of Notre Dame), Drew Spence (Tottenham), Havana Solaun (North Carolina Courage), Khadija Shaw (Manchester City), Atlanta Primus (London City Lionesses), Trudi Carter (FC Gintra), Deneisha Blackwood (Unattached), Paige Bailey-Gayle (Unattached), Jade Bailey (Liverpool), Chinyelu Asher (AIK)
FORWARDS (6): Tiernny Wiltshire (Unattached), Vyan Sampson (Charlton Athletic), Kayla McCoy (Rangers), Mireya Grey (Unattached), Jody Brown (Florida State University), Olufolasade Adamolekun (University of Southern California)
***
In the first match of the tournament, Donaldson deployed a 4-2-3-1 formation. Against inferior competition, Jamaica plays a direct shock-and-awe style with frequent long balls into the box. During qualifiers, there was a significant gap between the back line and the midfielders which was exploited on the counter-attack. Conventional wisdom is to play a bunker-and-counter against the USWNT. When in possession against Mexico, at least three players were always behind the ball.
Rebecca Spencer, a former England youth international, joined the program last year and started three out of four qualifiers, which helped her to “enjoy football again.” Despite being a touch undersized, she brings “outstanding shot-stopping and an ability to competently play out of the back.” Donaldson could also turn to Sydney Schneider, the New Jersey native who starred at the 2019 Women’s World Cup.
The first-choice center back pairing is a duo of former American youth internationals who also happen to be sisters. The elder, Allyson Swaby, competes for Angel City FC in the National Women’s Soccer League after several successful seasons with Roma. According to Chiesa Di Totti, she “leans toward direct football, can man-mark with the best of them, and launches passes straight through the pitch whenever [given] the opportunity to do so.” Her equally technically-skilled sibling, Chantelle of Rangers, is just shy of 6’ and can slot into the defensive-midfielder role. The 23-year-old embraces contact during the build-up, often opening up space by shouldering defenders off the ball.

— RUTGERS WOMEN’S SOCCER (@RUWSoccer) October 18, 2019
Versatile and pacey winger Tiernny Wiltshire, recently on the books at KuPS in Finland, could line up at fullback. The New Jersey native moves tirelessly up and down the field, whether tracking down an opponent or streaking into the final third with menacing intent. Gabrielle Gayle – who can also play center back – is rostered at the University of South Alabama, earning First-Team All-Sun Belt honors last fall. The 21-year-old has elite closing speed, often reaching the ball before a tackle becomes necessary. Deneisha Blackwood of the Houston Dash might start again but is working back to full fitness after undergoing knee surgery last August.
AIK midfielder Chinyelu Asher started all four matches during qualifying. She can expertly work her way out of pressure and looks to play the ball up the field. Described by the Jamaica Observer as “a nuisance,” Trudi Carter has revived her career with FC Gintra in Lithuania. The creative 27-year-old puts in work on defense and knows how to read passing lanes. Illinois-born Kayla McCoy is a looming threat in the final third and cannot be stopped after building up a full head of steam. The rotation could also feature Leicester City’s Paige Bailey-Gayle, who keeps possession moving and looks for the most proactive action at all times, or the vertically-inclined veteran Havana Solaun of the North Carolina Courage, a starter against Mexico.
With Sweatman and Cameron off the roster, the two starting wingers will likely be players from the American collegiate ranks. Olufolasade “Sade” Adamolekun competes with the University of Southern California and made one start at the 2019 World Cup. She likes to cut into the center of the field and provides a healthy mix of size and speed. Diminutive forward Jody Brown is a member of Florida State’s 2021 national championship squad, contributing four goals and ten assists. The pacey 20-year-old darts around opponents and latches onto long passes, meshing well with a target striker. Atlanta Primus, an English-born attacker with a dominant presence in the final third, could also feature in the lineup.
Jamaica’s attack begins and ends with the prolific Khadija “Bunny” Shaw, who has scored 52 goals in 37 career international appearances. The six-foot-tall Manchester City striker models herself after Robert Lewandowski and plays a physical game but is also capable of lining up on the wing. Calm and composed in the box, she likes to receive the ball at her feet and makes methodical runs between the center backs, often carving out a single yard of space to place a shot into the bottom corner.

This is a Jamaica squad that is going through a bit of transition but put in an eye-opening performance against Mexico, utilizing intelligent tactics and avoiding overextension. The Reggae Girlz are stronger than advertised, capable of scoring before locking into a structured and difficult-to-penetrate bunker. If the back line can shut down Shaw, the USWNT should clinch a convincing victory.
The match is scheduled for Thursday, July 7th at 7:00 p.m. Eastern, 4:00 pm Pacific.

LINKS TO BOOK YOUR SPOT TO OUR LAS VEGAS AND SAN FRANCISCO SHOWS HERE
These observations — where I look at Real Madrid’s history, its players on loan, Castilla, tactical tidbits, and other relevant thoughts — are now a regular thing. All previous editions can be found here.
Since Cristiano Ronaldo left in 2018, Real Madrid began their quest in signing his replacement in a variety of ways. They pursued Eden Hazard in 2018 to no avail, brought back Mariano Diaz from Lyon (hijacking a transfer to Sevilla with their first right of refusal in a decision that was disastrous for everyone involved), entrusted Gareth Bale, Marco Asensio, and Karim Benzema, then eventually brought in Hazard one year later along with Luka Jovic.
Here’s what hindsight has told us: Hazard should’ve stayed in London the whole time; Mariano should’ve been allowed to go to Sevilla; Gareth Bale should’ve been sold right after the final whistle in Kiev; and lastly, Benzema was going to be so good that no back-up striker was ever needed.
But hindsight is easy, as always. Decisions in the moment are more difficult. The point ultimately is this: Real Madrid signed Luka Jovic for a position (back-up striker) that doesn’t exist. Much like the back-up goalkeeper, or the ‘10’, having players for those roles means they won’t see the field. In past eras, that would be different, but benching Benzema is not happening here (nor should it), and when the Frenchman can’t play, you’re asking your striker to come in cold, like some Terminator awakening from a deep freeze, to execute goals like rhythm and match fitness is some kind of mere human construct.
“Right now the most important thing for me is to reach my best form as soon as possible,” Jovic said in March of 2021. He went on to further stress how hard it is to establish match fitness without playing: “I’m still not there and I might not be strong enough to play 90 minutes, that’s right. But I’m still trying to change that as soon as possible,”
It is not uncommon for Real Madrid to sign players off of small sample sizes like they did with Jovic. They signed Eder Militao, Vinicius Jr, and Rodrygo Goes based on their own internal scouting and justified the price tags because they believed in their due-diligence. But timing also really matters. Militao eased his way in just in time for Raphael Varane and Sergio Ramos to leave in one summer; Vinicius was plugged in one of the most desperate times in recent history; and Rodrygo rose when there was no reliable offensive production from the right wing. (Rodrygo may win again with Kylian Mbappe’s decision.)
Jovic did not have such luck. Benzema morphed into a top-three striker in Real Madrid history (in my list, he’s #2, and putting him #1 by the time his career ends is entirely conceivable). Having to back-up a freak like that is not easy. Opportunities will be scarce. The limited cameos will be even more challenging — like playing with weights attached to your ankles. You will be crucified if you don’t play well.
And, as we saw, the narratives wrote themselves every time Jovic played. ‘This is why Ancelotti doesn’t rotate.’
The off ball movement, the bad luck, none of that really mattered to the masses who just wanted goals and cared little for the cute tactical things. It’s always been this way. When Benzema was having a horrendous season in front of goal in 2017 - 2018, highlighting his defensive work and link-up play was regarded as a criminal act.
But labelling Jovic as a victim is too partisan. Jovic could’ve done more. In many cameos, he went missing. Say what you want about Mariano Diaz. He may have lacked footballing IQ and link-up ability, but he made his presence known — dropped to help win the ball, put his body on the line, throw defenders around, get to headers, and break his bones in order to get on the end of chances. Often, the only times you were reminded that Jovic was on the field was when you looked at the stat sheet at the end of the game, where you saw his name next to a bunch of zeroes and a game-low in touches.
But Jovic is a good player (at least I believe he is, and I know at least one other person who is on that island with me) even if it didn’t work out at Real Madrid. He has a chance at Fiorentina now to prove his worth.
What initially was to be a loan spell turned into a permanent transfer to the Italian side, and it comes with a cost to Real Madrid: They’ve lost him for free. Had you told us in 2019 that Jovic’s Real Madrid tenure would end with 36 appearances and three goals over the course of three years before the club would ‘sell’ him for free, it would’ve been a devastating bit of news to digest.
But to flip it in another perspective, Real Madrid will shed around 10m in wages, and cutting costs rather than doubling-down on something that is clearly not working is always wise, even if difficult.
Real Madrid will hold on to 50% of his rights on any future sale. That’s not a bad place to be in. If Jovic’s 2018 form is anything to go by, he can still turn into a good player for a good team somewhere. Fiorentina now owning him rather than bringing him on loan empowers them to invest playing time in the Serbian — something he desperately needs — and if he improves, the club can make some money in subsequent years off his sale.
With Jovic all-but-officially out the door, the trimming of the depth chart continues. The club will also try to offload Mariano, and there may be a scenario where they don’t bring in a back-up striker — again, a role that exists only on paper — to compensate. Instead, you may see Eden Hazard — remember him? — and Rodrygo play some false-nine minutes in rare events where Benzema can’t play.
“My priority is to be in a quality league and play,” Jovic said last summer. He may get that wish now. “At my age, if I leave I want to be in a place where I can be in the lineup, because I’ve already spent more time off the pitch than on it,” | https://www.managingmadrid.com/2022/7/5/23195201/the-jovic-era-began-with-promise-but-ended-with-real-madrid-cutting-their-loses-and-letting-him-go-f | 2022-07-05T20:17:00Z | https://www.managingmadrid.com/2022/7/5/23195201/the-jovic-era-began-with-promise-but-ended-with-real-madrid-cutting-their-loses-and-letting-him-go-f | false | 1 |
Cashless Casino Leverages Acres' Foundation Technology to Accelerate Cashless Gaming Adoption
LAS VEGAS, July 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- With a focus on driving an easier and quicker implementation of cashless gaming functionality, Acres Manufacturing Company ("Acres") announced today the introduction of Cashless Casino, a new application that enables casino operators to deploy the industry's best-of-breed cashless gaming and loyalty solution within 15 weeks of order. Cashless Casino is powered by Acres' Foundation technology, the industry's only solution capable of processing both real-time gaming data and conducting cashless transfers to and from any slot machine or table game. Acres' efforts to innovate solutions that enable a more intuitive adoption of cashless gaming technology will help set the stage for the option of a completely cashless casino gaming floor within a few years which will eliminate cash handling expenses and drive a better overall player experience.
"Early deployments of Foundation cashless gaming have proven that cashless players increase their play and visitation. As a result, casino operators are increasingly expressing wide-scale interest in deploying cashless gaming technology. However, implementing cashless gaming quickly becomes a burdensome, do-it-yourself project for operators, as they struggle through the limitations of decades-old legacy casino management systems ("CMS") technologies to integrate a payment processor and user interface while solving for dispute resolution and regulatory compliance," said Noah Acres. "These issues have dramatically slowed industry adaptation of cashless gaming. Cashless Casino addresses this challenge by making the rollout incredibly easy and intuitive, as it enables operators to focus on player education and the gaming entertainment experience. We can implement Cashless Casino within about 15 weeks of receiving an operator's order."
Cashless Casino works on any slot machine or table game, including those connected to casino management systems from Aristocrat, IGT, Konami and Light & Wonder. These legacy CMS solutions continue to account for play and loyalty data, while Foundation processes the entire machine event stream in real-time, resulting in over a thousand times more data being provided to the casino. Over time, casinos can migrate all CMS functionality to Foundation and remove the legacy CMS without any disruption to their loyalty, reporting or analytics programs, resulting in millions of dollars saved annually in hardware and maintenance fees.
Deploying Cashless Casino is simple, as casinos only need to pick a payment processor and provide a mobile app. The casino's app becomes the user interface, ensuring that branding is fully compatible with the rest of the operator's player-facing options. Players using Cashless Casino use the mobile app to virtually "card in" and start a rated play session. During play, point balances accrue in real-time and players are incentivized to continue playing when a new tier status is approaching. The payment processor of choice provides for the free flow of player funds between their funding source and the app's wallet. Behind the scenes, Foundation allows the player's funds, as well as accrued points which can be converted to free play, to move between the app's wallet and the game.
Casinos can select one or more payment providers, including Everi, Fabicash, Flexia, Koin, Sightline Payments and Trustly. An interface to Marker Trax, a casino marker solution, is also included. Furthermore, Cashless Casino satisfies all regulatory requirements by providing audit reports and dispute resolution tools and can serve as the required system of record.
"Cashless Casino allows gaming operators to position themselves for an entirely cashless future in which casinos transition away from physical player cards, kiosks, and direct mail," added Noah Acres. "These legacy technologies and practices are quickly being abandoned by other industries and by implementing Cashless Casino, operators can engage with their customers more easily in the mediums they prefer while also benefiting from operating efficiencies.
"Driving higher loyalty engagement is the core value proposition of our Foundation technology," concluded Noah Acres, "and incorporating innovative player loyalty features into Cashless Casino is a key differentiator in the player experience. Cashless Casino enables casino operators to significantly improve their connection and engagement with their players."

Not enough sausage and flavour
The pastry was delicious, but the sausage filling was only 47% pork and had little taste. I would expect 70% pork content. Not comparable with afternoon tea sausage rolls.

Perfect.
Lol at the last review that said not very meaty. This is actually the total opposite! Quite possibly the most meaty sausage roll I've ever had and certainly one of the best tasting. It's very heavy weight wise due to the meat content and tastes of top quality sasuage meat, a bit similar to their finest sausage meat stuffing over xmas. The pastry too is lovely and buttery. Price wise it seems expensive but it is twice the size of a famous branded sausage roll. I expect it tastes even better warmed up. Perfect for an ocassional treat or lunch.

This year marks the 200th anniversary of one of mankind’s great achievements, the decyphering of Egyptian hieroglyphs, and the British Museum is planning an exhibition that explores this pivotal moment. The exhibition, opening in October, will explore the inscriptions and objects that helped scholars unlock one of the world’s oldest civilisations, exactly 200 years ago.
At the exhibition’s heart will be the Rosetta Stone, one of the world’s most famous ancient objects and one of the British Museum’s most popular exhibits. Before hieroglyphs could be deciphered, life in ancient Egypt had been a mystery for centuries with only tantalising glimpses into this forgotten world. The discovery of the Rosetta Stone in 1799, with its decree written in three styles — hieroglyphs, demotic and ancient Greek — provided the key to decoding hieroglyphs in 1822.
To celebrate the decyphering of the Egyptian language, the exhibition will bring together over 240 objects, including loans from national and international collections, many of which will be shown for the first time. It will chart the race to decipherment, from initial efforts by medieval Arab travellers and Renaissance scholars to more focussed progress by French scholar Jean-François Champollion and England’s Thomas Young.
To show how the Rosetta Stone was the key to the discovery, it will be shown alongside the very inscriptions that Champollion and other scholars studied in their quest to understand the ancient past.
If you’ve ever wondered, the inscription on the Rosetta Stone is a decree passed by a council of priests, one of a series that affirm the royal cult of the 13 year-old Ptolemy V on the first anniversary of his coronation. The reason the stone was inscribed in Greek as well as Egyptian, is likely to be because Ptolemy V was pharaoh at a time when Egypt was a state of ancient Greece, having been conquered by Alexander the Great. It was controlled by Greece until the time of Cleopatra.
Rarely on public display, but included in this exhibition will be the richly illustrated Book of the Dead papyrus of Queen Nedjmet, which is over 3,000 years old and more than four metres long. The papyrus will feature alongside a set of four canopic vessels that preserved the organs of the deceased. These were dispersed over French and British collections after discovery, and this is the first time this set of jars has been reunited since the mid-1700s.
Among the loans to the exhibition is the mummy bandage of Aberuait from the Musée du Louvre, Paris, which has never been shown in the UK. It was a souvenir from one of the earliest ‘mummy unwrapping events’ in the 1600s where attendees received a piece of linen, preferably inscribed with hieroglyphs. The exhibition will also bring together personal notes by Champollion from the Bibliothèque nationale de France, and Young from the British Library. A 3,000-year-old measuring rod from the Museo Egizio in Turin was an essential clue for Champollion to unravel Egyptian mathematics, discovering that the Egyptians used units inspired by the human body.
The cartonnage and mummy of the lady Baketenhor, on loan from the Natural History Society of Northumbria, was studied by Champollion in the 1820s. In correspondence with colleagues in Newcastle, Champollion correctly identified the inscription on the mummy cover as a prayer addressed to several deities for the soul of the deceased only a few years after he cracked the hieroglyphic writing system. Baketenhor lived to about 25–30 years of age, sometime between 945 and 715 BCE.
Ilona Regulski, Curator of Egyptian Written Culture at the British Museum, said “The decipherment of hieroglyphs marked the turning point in a study that continues today to reveal secrets of the past. The field of Egyptology is as active as ever in providing access to the ancient world. Building on 200 years of continuous work by scholars around the globe, the exhibition celebrates new research and shows how Egyptologists continue to shape our dialogue with the past.”
The exhibition, Hieroglyphs: unlocking ancient Egypt runs from 13th October 2022 to 19th February 2023 and tickets are on sale now from here.
Adult: £18 | Student/16-18/Concessions: £16 | Children: Free | Members: Free
Note, as the Rosetta Stone will be in the exhibition, it won’t be available to view for free in the Egyptian Sculpture gallery as it is usually, so people keep to see it, should so do before it’s moved to the exhibition rooms.

Christina Hall Shares Photo of Husband Josh Celebrating July 4 in Revealing American Flag Onesie
Christina Hall's husband dressed the part for the Fourth of July.
The HGTV star posted a photo of Josh Hall, whom she revealed she had tied in the knot with in April, rocking an American flag-themed onesie in front of their pool on Instagram Monday in celebration of the holiday. Christina's 2-year-old son, Hudson, can be seen looking in the background.
"Just enjoying the view," Hall wrote on her Instagram post. "💥 Happy 4th of July weekend . ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸"
Josh joked in the post's comments that, "Hudson was not impressed with my patriotic Thai Chi [sic]..."
Christina and Josh appeared busy in their new Newport Beach, Calif. home, where they moved in June after selling Christina's property in Dana Point in April.
The 38-year-old Christina on the Coast star kicked off the Fourth of July weekend by sharing a video guide to what she called her "absolute favorite cocktail recipes right now" — a fresh citrus margarita and prosecco mule. Beyond her amusing photo of Josh, Christina also posted a video to Instagram Monday of her kids dancing to Miley Cyrus' "Party in the U.S.A.," by the pool and a full family photo.
Christina shares Hudson with her second husband Ant Anstead, and her two older children, Taylor, 11, and Brayden, 6, with her first, Tarek El-Moussa.
A representative for Christina confirmed to PEOPLE in April that the HGTV star sold her 5-bedroom, 7-bathroom Dana Point, Calif. property for $11.5 million. Later that month, Christina shared a post detailing the reason why she and her family were moving on.
"We moved to Dana Point last summer after falling in love with the ocean view," she wrote in the post. "We still LOVE the view but among other things we don't love the 90 minute round trip drive to and from the kids school. Back to Newport we go." | https://people.com/home/christina-hall-shares-photo-of-new-husband-celebrating-july-4-with-wild-american-flag-leotard/ | 2022-07-05T20:23:22Z | https://people.com/home/christina-hall-shares-photo-of-new-husband-celebrating-july-4-with-wild-american-flag-leotard/ | false | 1 |

Boris Johnson's leadership is in crisis after Rishi Sunak quit as chancellor and Sajid Javid resigned as health secretary on Tuesday afternoon.
The resignations came as Mr Johnson was forced into a humiliating apology over his handling of the Chris Pincher row after it emerged he had forgotten about being told of previous allegations of “inappropriate” conduct. Mr Pincher quit as deputy chief whip last week following claims that he groped two men at a private members’ club, but Mr Johnson was told about allegations against him as far back as 2019.
The Prime Minister’s authority had already been damaged by a confidence vote which saw 41 per cent of his MPs vote against him. The loss of crunch by-elections in Tiverton and Honiton and Wakefield in June triggered the resignation of party chairman Oliver Dowden.
READ MORE: Latest odds on Boris Johnson resigning and who could replace him as Prime Minister
But the resignations of Mr Javid – a former leadership contender – and Mr Sunak, viewed as a potential successor to the Prime Minister, mean Mr Johnson’s position is now perilous. Odds have been slashed on Mr Johnson quitting as Prime Minister following a string of controversies over the last year, including the partygate scandal.
But what happens when a Prime Minister steps down and how will a new leader be selected? Here's what you need to know.
What happens when a Prime Minister resigns?
Under conventions of the UK's unwritten constitution, Britain must have a Prime Minister at all times. Because of that, a standing PM will usually offer their resignation but continue to lead until a replacement is found.
If Mr Johnson offers his resignation, it will automatically trigger a Tory leadership contest, but that can take several weeks to complete. Leadership contests involve arduous campaigning, jostling for positions and various behind the scenes machinations.
A contest would take place in two stages. In the first stage, Conservative MPs put themselves forward as candidates. All Conservative MPs then vote in a series of rounds to reduce the number of candidates until only two remain. The second stage of the contest sees the two remaining candidates put to a vote of Conservative Party members.
Once the leadership contest is decided, the outgoing prime minister will go and the new leader voted in will become PM. There is no rule saying that the new Tory leader would have to call a general election. The next general election is scheduled to take place on May 2 in 2024.
In 2007, a Conservative leadership contest was triggered when Tony Blair resigned in June 2007. It was won by Gordon Brown, who ran uncontested. In 2016, another contest took place when David Cameron resigned as Tory party leader. Theresa May went on to win in July 2016, after Andrea Leadsom withdrew and left Mrs May as the sole candidate.
More recently in June 2019, Theresa May resigned, with Boris Johnson being elected in the leadership contest with almost twice as many votes as his opponent Jeremy Hunt.

LONDON (AP) — British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s government faced a new crisis Tuesday after two of his most senior Cabinet ministers resigned within minutes of each other.
Treasury chief Rishi Sunak and Health Secretary Sajid Javid quit, saying the government under Johnson’s leadership was no longer competent or “acting in the national interest.”
The apparently coordinated exits came after Johnson was hit by allegations he lied about how he handled claims of sexual misconduct by a lawmaker who was appointed to a senior position.
Both Javid and Sunak are key members of the Cabinet and both are seen as potential successors to Johnson, leaving his position perilous.
A look at who Sunak and Javid are:
___
RISHI SUNAK, TREASURY CHIEF
In his resignation letter, Sunak told Johnson “it has become clear to me that our approaches are fundamentally too different.”
“The public rightly expect government to be conducted properly, competently and seriously. I recognise this may be my last ministerial job, but I believe these standards are worth fighting for and that is why I am resigning,” he wrote.
Sunak was, until recently, widely regarded as the party’s brightest rising star, the best-known of potential leadership contenders — and the bookies’ favorite to succeed Johnson.
Sunak, 42, was thrust into the spotlight when he became treasury chief in 2020, tasked with the unenviable job of steering the economy through its worst economic slump on record because of the pandemic. He dished out billions of pounds in emergency spending to help businesses and workers, and his policies have generally been seen in a positive light.
But “partygate” changed those fortunes. Like Johnson, he was issued a police fine for attending a lockdown-flouting birthday party at Downing Street in June 2020. He has also come under heavy criticism for being slow to respond to Britain’s severe cost-of-living crisis.
Sunak also faced pressure following revelations that his wife, Akshata Murthy, avoided paying U.K. taxes on her overseas income, and that the former investment banker held on to his U.S. green card while serving in government.
Born to Indian parents who moved to the U.K. from East Africa, Sunak attended the exclusive Winchester College private school and studied at Oxford.
Some see his elite education and past work for the investment bank Goldman Sachs and a hedge fund as a deficit because he seems out of touch with ordinary voters.
___
SAJID JAVID, HEALTH SECRETARY
In his statement, Javid said he could “no longer, in good conscience, continue serving in this government.”
Javid, 52, has been health secretary since June 2021, leading Britain’s COVID-19 response.
Before that, he served as treasury chief, but resigned in early 2020 after clashing with Johnson over his order to fire his team of advisers.
The fact that Johnson brought him back into the government to handle the coronavirus response reflects his reputation for competence.
Javid, a father of four, was first elected in 2010 and has held various positions in government, including serving as home secretary and leading departments for business, culture and housing.
He ran in the 2019 Conservative leadership election, but was eliminated in the fourth round and lost to Johnson.
The son of Pakistani immigrants, Javid has billed himself as a common-man alternative to his private school-educated rivals — although he had a lucrative career in investment banking before entering politics. | https://www.valleycentral.com/news/international/ap-international/profiles-of-sunak-and-javid-who-quit-johnsons-cabinet/ | 2022-07-05T20:42:46Z | https://www.valleycentral.com/news/international/ap-international/profiles-of-sunak-and-javid-who-quit-johnsons-cabinet/ | true | 40 |
COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — Denmark’s largest cinema chain kept all its movie theaters closed Tuesday because a 17-year-old employee was one of the three people killed in a weekend shooting attack at a shopping mall.
Nordisk Film Biografer, which has 23 theaters nationwide, said on Facebook that the company made the decision out of respect for the victims — the teenage boy it employed, a 17-year-old girl and a 47-year-old Russian man — and “to talk the situation through with our staff.”
One of the chain’s locations is at the Field’s shopping center, located on the outskirts of the Danish capital.
Four other people were hospitalized in critical but stable condition after suffering gunshot wounds in Sunday’s shootings. Authorities have said a 22-year-old Danish man in custody apparently selected people to shoot at random.
In all, around two dozen people were hurt, most in the panicked stampede after gunfire rang out at the mall. Neither the gunman nor the victims can be named under a court order.
“We stand together in this difficult time,” said Crown Prince Frederik who had attended a memorial ceremony for the victims held outside the Field’s shopping center Tuesday evening.
“We are all here tonight to commemorate those killed,” Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen told the crowd of several thousand people that also included top officials, firefighters and first responders. A minute of silence was held and many of the thousands had red eyes and were visibly moved. Many hugged each other during the event.
“Tonight we can feel the grief, tonight we can feel the love,” Copenhagen Mayor Sophie H. Andersen said from a stage that had been put up outside the shopping mall. She spoke before a musical interlude by a female choir.
The area was full of flowers, lit candles and handwritten notes.
Authorities have said the suspect acted alone and they have ruled out terrorism as a motive. On Monday, the suspect was ordered held for 24 days in a secure mental health facility on preliminary charges of murder and attempted murder.
Stine Rysgaard, a spokesperson for the shopping mall, said the multi-story mall with more than 130 shops remains closed until at least July 11. all She said the mall had proper security but declined to give details, citing the ongoing investigation. | https://www.wsav.com/news/international-news/denmark-theaters-closed-in-honor-of-mall-shooting-victims/ | 2022-07-05T20:46:42Z | https://www.wsav.com/news/international-news/denmark-theaters-closed-in-honor-of-mall-shooting-victims/ | false | 32 |
College football player dies in cliff diving accident
EMPORIA, Kan. (WIBW/Gray News) - A college football player died following a cliff diving accident, his university announced.
Emporia State University said the accident involving redshirt sophomore football player Brexten Green happened at Grand Lake in Oklahoma on July 2.

Ridiculously Delicious
Review from BEN & JERRY'S
I'm an ice cream fan, and I was not expecting this to be as good as it was! It's basically hazelnut spread, but make it icecream. So good! really enjoyed the hazelnut chunks paired with the brownie pieces, it was just really really good. Hyper palatable.
Yummy
Review from BEN & JERRY'S
I got this to try as I love there other products and omg I was not disappointed the flavour is strong and yummy such a luxurious treat without a big price tag I'd highly recommend this to any ice cream lover
Hard to find but when you do you won't regret it.
Review from BEN & JERRY'S
If there's one thing I can love on forever, it's "hazelnut spread" you know the one! But put it in a Ben and Jerrys, I'm set for life! I love that there's a mix of vanilla and chocolate ice cream as vanilla is my other favourite thing. There's some lovely little chocolate chunks in there too. The only down side I can think of is how long it took me to find it! I looked for it every time I went shopping for a good couple of months but it's always out of stock. I finally found it in a store I don't often go to. It must be a popular one and is quite on the expensive side.

While 1990s nostalgia continues to permeate pop culture, Victoria Beckham is here to remind us all that the old days weren’t just about fantastic fashions and girl power-infused pop music.
It was also a time when women in the spotlight faced a level of scrutiny about their bodies that seems almost unimaginable today, and a recently resurfaced 1999 television interview with the woman once known as Posh Spice proves that point. That’s because, just two months after giving birth to her first child, she was asked to step on a scale for an on-air weigh-in.
And the now-48-year-old fashion designer has something to say about that.
"I went on a TV show called 'Don’t Forget Your Toothbrush' with Chris Evans many years ago, and I’d just had Brooklyn and lost a lot of weight after," Beckham recalled in a new interview for Vogue Australia. "It happened to my mum after her pregnancies. ... It doesn’t mean you have an eating disorder. "
The show was actually "TFI Friday," a follow-up series from the same British television and radio host, and in the vintage clip, Evans said to her, "A lot of girls want to know, because you look fantastic again, how did you get back to your shape after your birth?"
After explaining that she hadn't done anything special after giving birth to son Brooklyn, Evans asked if her weight was "back to normal." When she said yes, he then asked to "check" for himself and brought out a scale.
"Oh, no!" said Beckham, whose last name was Adams at the time, as she was still two months away from her wedding to David Beckham. "You did this to Geri (Halliwell), didn’t you? But Geri was really small. This is horrible."
Evans had, in fact, weighed Beckham's former fellow Spice Girl on his show and broadcast the results for all to see.
After he did the same to Beckham, she looked at him and said, "Why don't you get on it?"
Evans did, but her point about the awkwardness of the situation remained all the same.
"He made me stand on scales and be weighed," Beckham said as she reflected on that moment in her Vogue Australia interview. "Can you imagine doing that nowadays?"
But, sadly, the problem of putting women's weight in the spotlight wasn't restricted to that one program. Beckham went on to explain it was an all-too-common theme she encountered in those days.
"I’ve had 'Porky Posh' on a headline, I’ve had 'Skeletal Posh,'" she noted. "After I had Brooklyn (23 years ago), there was a picture on the front of a newspaper pointing to every single part of my body as to where I had to focus on losing the weight from. Imagine doing that now." | https://www.today.com/popculture/popculture/victoria-beckham-reflects-tv-host-weighing-air-baby-1999-rcna36079 | 2022-07-05T20:58:42Z | https://www.today.com/popculture/popculture/victoria-beckham-reflects-tv-host-weighing-air-baby-1999-rcna36079 | false | 1 |

At a rally in Nashville, Planned Parenthood organizer Julie Edwards looked out at some of the "back alley abortion" imagery on signs, including bloody coat hangers. But, Edwards told the crowd, driven into the streets by the U.S. Supreme Court's decision on abortion rights, it's not like the old days before Roe v. Wade.
Nearly a decade ago, Edwards was a teenager and got medication from some older friends. Edwards said that may be the new normal in abortion-ban states like Tennessee.
"I'm standing in front of you having had a self-managed abortion, having gotten abortion pills from people in my community. And I'm safe," Edwards said to cheers. "It's going to take all of us to keep each other's secrets, to hold each other's hands, to keep each other safe."
Medications are now available for first trimester abortions. And it's become the primary way abortions are induced.
The regimen involves two prescription drugs that hit the market since Roe was decided in 1973. Mifepristone is taken first. It's the abortion drug that's fairly expensive and highly regulated. A day or two later, the patient takes misoprostol, which is much more widely available and can work on its own to induce an abortion. The drug was developed for treating ulcers in the 1970s but has several other off-label uses aside from abortions, such as alleviating arthritis. It's even prescribed for animals, so veterinary supply stores carry the medication. Misoprostol is even sold over-the-counter in Mexico.
"It's really based on what somebody can get. And in the self-managed context, the only way to get mifepristone plus misoprostol is through the internet, so it takes time to wait for the delivery," said Susan Yanow, spokesperson for Women Help Women, a nonprofit based across four continents that works to increase access to abortion.
The international organization ships both medications all over the world — but not to the U.S. because laws vary so much state to state. Social media sites such as Facebook and Instagram have already started pulling down posts offering to send these drugs by mail. Many states that now ban abortion have recently strengthened their laws on mail-order abortion drugs.
"We still have the right to share information," Yanow said. "People use the internet. People use their phones. People will find ways to obtain these pills."
Using abortion pills safely
But it's more than finding the medications, which is why Yanow's organization has a detailed guide on how to use them safely. And she provides training for local reproductive rights groups, as do others.
Lynsey Bourke of Self-Guided Abortion, based in Montana, began producing video tutorials late last year and publishing them on Youtube, explaining how to use misoprostol alone and offering ways to make the process more sacred by building an altar, burning incense and lighting candles. She even provides post-abortion yoga instruction.
With misoprostol alone, multiple rounds are needed. Nausea is common. And the medicine induces cramping and bleeding that can be alarming for those who aren't prepared.
Even some OB-GYNs are quietly supportive of self-managed abortion.
"I'm more worried about people who can't get to one of these sources and are just so desperate that they take matters into their own hands," said Dr. Nikki Zite, an OB-GYN at the University of Tennessee Medical Center in Knoxville.
She said clinical counseling before taking the pill combo is ideal. For example, some patients are anemic and could bleed enough to need emergency care. And some just don't do well with pain and lots of blood.
"Not every patient is a good candidate to miscarry at home," she said.
But at this point, Zite can't afford to provide that consultation. In Tennessee, she would be risking a felony and prison time under a six-week ban now in effect, and an all-out abortion ban set to take effect in August. And it's unclear just how far law enforcement is willing to reach.
Tennessee's laws specifically exempts the pregnant person from prosecution. But a motivated prosecutor could find ways to press charges related to a self-managed abortion, said criminal defense attorney David Raybin in Nashville.
"I mean, that is fraught with peril," Raybin said. "I would strongly recommend against a woman using such quote-unquote underground methods to get medication like that."
He said it's best to get a legal abortion in another state. But abortion rights activists in Tennessee say they know travel will be difficult for many. And even for those who can, a self-managed abortion may be more convenient. To a degree, reproductive rights groups are willing to help navigate the legal gray area.
Assessing the risk
Healthy and Free Tennessee, an organization working to promote sexual health and reproductive freedom, has organized several training sessions through Women Help Women in recent weeks. Policy director Nina Gurak said their biggest worry isn't health complications — it's the legal risk.
"We recommend that if someone is self-managing an abortion that they have a supporter or friend. That supporter or friend may be at a higher legal risk than the actual person who is self-managing an abortion," she said. "And then you have to decide for yourself — is that something I'm comfortable with? Is that something I'm not comfortable with?"
Organizations in states with abortion bans have their own risk to assess. They feel confident the First Amendment protects sharing medical information endorsed by the World Health Organization.
But abortion rights advocates are torn between raising awareness and becoming a target for anti-abortion lawmakers — who are no longer limited by Roe v. Wade.
"We definitely are concerned about increasing criminalization of abortion or self-managed abortion and abortion pills," Gurak said. "We also want to balance that with the need for communities to have the information that they need to make the decision for themselves."
