CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — The medical technician who drew blood from New Hampshire Rep. Peter Schmidt after he broke his leg in February was registered with the state, thanks to a 2014 law enacted after a traveling medical technician infected dozens of people with hepatitis C.
But by the time Schmidt was back on his feet, colleagues had hijacked his bill aimed at improving the registry. House lawmakers passed a bill last month eliminating the registration requirement altogether, and Schmidt is now urging senators to reject it.
“Please do not pass this, this is a terrible idea,” Schmidt said. “I think we need to continue to register these medical technicians, otherwise we are opening ourselves up to a potential repeat of the Exeter experience.”
New Hampshire created the Board of Registration for Medical Technicians in response to David Kwiatkowski, who is serving 39 years in prison for stealing painkillers and replacing them with saline-filled syringes tainted with his blood.
At the time, officials hoped the board would become a model for other states, but that hasn’t happened. And those who want to ditch it say it creates unnecessary bureaucracy at a time when health care facilities are struggling to hire workers.
“The actions of one bad actor, however heinous, are not reason to require thousands of technicians to register and pay fees,” said Rep. Carol McGuire, R-Epsom, when the House passed the bill last month.
But Linda Ficken, a Kansas woman who contracted hepatitis C from Kwiatkowski in 2011, said she believes any medical worker with access to drugs should be registered and should undergo frequent drug testing.
“Every time I go into the hospital, I can’t help but wonder, is this a repeat?” she said. “Cured or not, the thoughts and anxiety are still there.”
Despite being fired numerous times over drug allegations, Kwiatkowski had worked in 18 hospitals in seven states before being hired in at Exeter Hospital in New Hampshire. After his arrest in 2012, 46 people in four states were diagnosed with the same strain of the hepatitis C virus he carries, including one who died in Kansas.
In all, 32 patients were infected in New Hampshire, seven in Maryland, six in Kansas and one in Pennsylvania. Kwiatkowski also worked in Michigan, New York, Arizona and Georgia.
The case highlighted the fact that medical technicians aren’t as closely regulated as nurses or doctors, whose misconduct and discipline are tracked via a nationwide database. While some states require certain technicians to be licensed, four of the states where he worked didn’t license any of them at the time of his arrest, including New Hampshire.
The registry New Hampshire eventually created applies to all health care workers who are not otherwise already licensed or registered and have access to both patients and drugs. Hospitals are required to report disciplinary actions to the board, which also investigates complaints and takes disciplinary action.
The board has struggled to maintain a quorum, however, and hasn’t met in more than a year, said Lindsey Courtney, director of the Office of Professional Licensure and Certification.
“We’re greatly concerned the state is not meeting its obligation to protect the public,” she said at a public hearing.
Courtney, who isn’t taking a position on eliminating the board, supported Schmidt’s original proposal to convert it to an advisory panel that would make recommendations to her office. There are currently 1,691 registered technicians, and although complaints are rare, the board has taken action in a handful of cases each year.
Schmidt said his goal was to shift some of the administrative burden from the board to the larger agency. He hopes the Senate will either kill the amended bill or return to his original idea.
While hospitals are on the front lines of preventing and responding to drug diversion, partnering with public health, licensing and law enforcement agencies is essential, said Dr. Matthew Crist, a medical officer with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
He said the CDC isn’t aware of outbreaks in recent years related to drug diversion and is cautiously optimistic given that health care facilities have improved security around controlled drugs, and many state licensing agencies have taken steps to improve communication across state lines.
In the decade before Kwiatkowski’s arrests, similar hepatitis C outbreaks had been traced to other hospital technicians in Texas, Colorado and Florida, and CDC officials said at the time that the Kwiatkowski case highlighted a problem that was a growing concern across the public health system.
Even though other states didn’t follow New Hampshire’s lead, the registry likely has deterred people like Kwiatkowski from coming to the state in the first place, said state Sen. Tom Sherman, D-Rye, who led the bipartisan effort to create the board.
Sherman, a gastroenterologist who is running for governor, played a key role in discovering Kwiatkowski’s misconduct when he and his colleagues noticed a cluster of hepatitis C cases among their patients and realized they all had been treated in Exeter Hospital’s cardiac catherization lab. He’s now urging his fellow senators to consider “the price of doing an experiment to see what happens if we get rid of the board.”
“People died because of that outbreak,” he said. “This was a very carefully thought-out solution that has worked. To take it away now means we just don’t learn from history.”

Bad news for banks: Rates are rising fast
CNN
By Paul R. La Monica, CNN Business
The Federal Reserve’s interest rate hikes should boost lending profits for major financial firms. Now, the big banks will have the chance to prove to investors that they can thrive if rates continue to climb.
JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley will all report first-quarter earnings this week.
Asset management giants BlackRock and State Street, regional banking powerhouses US Bancorp and PNC, and online lender Ally Financial are also on tap to release their latest results.
Investors are hoping financial stocks will benefit from rising interest rates. But it’s a complicated calculus. If the Fed is serious about aggressively tightening monetary policy, that could backfire on the big banks.
The Fed is no longer expected to raise rates gradually. The consensus opinion among economists is that a series of quarter-point hikes will no longer cut it.
The Fed is behind the curve on inflation. It’s time for shock and awe.
After slashing rates to zero at the start of the pandemic in March 2020, the Fed held rates there until finally lifting them to a range of 0.25% to 0.5% in March.
But, according to futures trading on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, investors are now pricing in a nearly 80% chance of a half-point hike at the Fed’s May meeting and about 55% odds of another half-point increase in June. There’s even a more than 30% probability of a three-quarters-of-a-point rate hike, to a range of 1.5% to 1.75%.
Bigger rate hikes could eat into corporate profits and lead to even more stock market volatility. Bank earnings could be hurt, too, because a slide on Wall Street could potentially lead to less demand for mergers and new stock sales. Wall Street giants rake in lucrative advisory fees from deals, initial public offerings and special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) listings.
The ripple effect of higher rates
An economic slowdown caused by substantially higher rates also could hurt demand for mortgages and other consumer loans.
Mortgage rates are now approaching 5% and could continue to climb along with longer-term Treasury bonds. The 10-year Treasury yield spiked to about 2.7% this week, the highest level since March 2019.
So any lift to lending profit margins could be offset by a drop in loan activity. People would be less likely to buy new homes in a real estate market that’s already become prohibitively expensive for many Americans.
The inversion of the yield curve also could hurt banks. With rates for shorter-term bonds — most notably the 2-year Treasury — briefly rising higher than the rates for the 10-year Treasury, that also could put a lid on profits for banks that need to pay higher short-term rates on deposits.
“The recent inversion of the curve has been an overhang for bank stocks, with uncertainties regarding revenue growth and credit,” said KBW managing director Christopher McGratty in a first-quarter earnings preview report. He specifically cited “the risk of elevated deposit costs.”
It also doesn’t help that an inverted yield curve tends to be a fairly reliable predictor of an eventual recession. It goes without saying that banks would not do well if the economy pulls back sharply.
All these worries are hurting bank stocks. Investors appear to be more nervous about an eventual pullback than excited by the potential short-term boost to lending profits.
Two exchange-traded funds that own shares of most of the top banks, the Financial Select Sector SPDR and SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETFs, are both down this year along with the broader market.
“Rising inflation and higher interest rates may lead to a US recession. The course of the pandemic may also change consumer behavior as we continue to move to a new normal,” said CFRA bank analyst Kenneth Leon in an earnings preview report.
“US households could be more frugal and conservative with using their credit cards or consumer loans. Uncertainties remain on the outlook for consumer and commercial loan activity as well as investment banking,” he added.
Inflation could get worse before it gets better
Surging prices are still a major problem for many consumers. The US government will make that painfully clear once again next week when it releases two key reports about inflation in March.
The Consumer Price Index will be released Tuesday morning. Economists are forecasting that the CPI numbers will show prices rose at an 8.3% clip over the past 12 months, according to Refinitiv. That would be up from February’s year-over-year increase of 7.9%, which was already a 40-year high.
And experts aren’t predicting much relief on the horizon just yet.
The inflation challenges are likely to get worse before prices start to come down. Stifel chief equity strategist Barry Bannister forecast in a recent report that the annualized increase for CPI will spike as high as 9% in the coming months, before finally beginning to subside in the third quarter.
Inflation is even more problematic at the wholesale level. The government’s producer price index, which measures prices for raw goods sold to businesses, surged 10% in the 12 months ending in February.
The fact that PPI is rising even more sharply than CPI could be a sign that businesses are either unable or unwilling to pass on all their higher costs to consumers. That could hurt profit margins going forward.

What: Washington Wizards (35-46) at Charlotte Hornets (42-39)
When: 3:30 PM ET
Where: Spectrum Center; Charlotte, NC
How to watch: Bally Sports Southeast, NBA League Pass
Do you like drama?
With 81 of 82 games in the books, the four Eastern Conference play-in teams are all within one game of each other between the Brooklyn Nets (43-38), Cleveland Cavaliers (43-38), Atlanta Hawks (42-39), and our very own Charlotte Hornets (42-39).
Seeding in the play-in tournament has a huge impact on which team will make the playoffs. The No. 7 and No. 8 seeds face each other and the winner automatically gets a playoff spot. The No. 9 and No. 10 seeds also face off and the loser is eliminated. The loser of the No. 7 vs. 8 matchup and the winner of the No. 9 vs. 10 game then face off and the winner is in.
In plain English, the No. 7 and No. 8 teams just need to win one game to make the playoffs. The No. 9 and No. 10 teams would need to win back-to-back games to make it. We’ll all be scoreboard watching to see how the Nets, Cavs, and Hawks fare tonight.
Washington Wizards overview
The Wizards have been a bit frisky lately with a 5-4 record over their last nine games, but they’re decimated by injuries right now.
Washington’s four best players won’t be suiting up for this one. Bradley Beal (23.2 PPG, 6.6 APG) was lost for the season back in February. The Wizards have since announced that their three best remaining players will be sitting this one out with Kristaps Porzingis (20.2 PPG, 8.1 RPG), forward Kyle Kuzma (17.1 PPG, 8.5 RPG), and guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (13.2 PPG, 39% 3PT) all in street clothes for the season finale.
This leaves the Wizards relying heavily on ho-hum guys like guard Tomas Satoransky, rookie forward Corey Kispert, second-year forward Deni Avdija, power forward Rui Hachimura, and center Daniel Gafford. Key reserves include former Hornet Ish Smith, second-year forward Anthony Gill, and center Thomas Bryant.
The Wizards are doing everything possible roster-wise to help the Hornets get a win.
How the Hornets can win
There are no secrets to this game. The Hornets have everything to play for while the Wizards have essentially shut things down going into the final game of the season. This game is being served to the Hornets on a silver platter.
If the Hornets can’t win this one, then good luck figuring things out in the play-in tournament.
I see a Hornets victory coming tonight. Let’s hope this is just one victory in more to come in the play-in tournament and ultimately in the playoffs.

ASS secretary-general Jadav Chandra Sharma stated that making Hindi a compulsory language will jeopardize the indigenous language.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah, who is also the Chairman of the Parliamentary Official Language Committee, had on Thursday said that 22,000 Hindi teachers had been recruited in the eight states of the Northeast and all the states have agreed to make Hindi compulsory up to Class X.
Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Friday said that there is no instruction from Centre to make Hindi learning compulsory.
He said, “There is no instruction from Centre to make Hindi learning compulsory. In Assam, Assamese is the mother tongue. Assam government in consultation with Asam Sahitya Sabha and tribal sahitya prepared a language policy where a student will learn Assamese and a tribal language besides English and Hindi. Bodo Sahitya Sabha has some objections and that is why we have not announced the policy yet.”
Sarma said that there is no instruction to make Hindi as the medium of instruction. “Shah said one must know Hindi even though we want students to learn English and Hindi. Shah has not said one must not stop learning Assamese and learn Hindi. He said that one must after learning Assamese must learn Hindi. We also want the same for by learning Hindi a student from this place will be able to apply for government and non-government jobs in Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra.”
He clarified that there is no letter even to make Hindi an optional language.
Congress leader and leader of the Opposition in Assam Debabrata Saikia said that Shah’s remark is in contradiction to the New Education Policy introduced by the BJP-led government, which seeks to support primary education in the mother tongue.
Manipur pradesh Congress committee opposed Union Home Minister's statement on imposition of Hindi language in Manipur and other North East India states.

GRAPHIC: Ukraine digs in to fight Russia’s looming eastern offensive
KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Ukrainian forces dug in and Russia’s military lined up more firepower Sunday ahead of an expected showdown in eastern Ukraine that could become a decisive period in a war that has flattened cities, killed untold thousands and isolated Moscow economically and politically.
Experts say a full-scale offensive in the east could start within days, though questions remained about the ability of Russia’s depleted and demoralized forces to conquer much ground after Ukraine’s inspired defenders repelled their push to capture the capital, Kyiv.
Britain’s Defense Ministry reported Sunday that Russia’s armed forces were trying to compensate for mounting casualties by boosting troop numbers with personnel who had been discharged from service since 2012. Ukraine has the bulk of its military forces in the east: estimates vary, but they are believed to number in the tens of thousands.
Russia-backed separatists have fought Ukrainian forces in eastern Ukraine since 2014 and control parts of the Donbas, a mostly Russian-speaking, industrial region. Since Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24, its troops have bombarded government-held territory. The anticipated offensive in the east and south could end up excising a vast swath of land from Ukraine.
WARNING: Videos may contain graphic content.
On Sunday, Russian forces shelled Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city, in the northeast and sent reinforcements toward Izyum to the southeast in attempts to break Ukraine’s defenses, the Ukrainian military command said. The Russians also kept up their siege of Mariupol, a key southern port that has been under attack and surrounded for nearly 1 ½ months.
A Russian Defense Ministry spokesman, Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov, said Russia’s military used air-launched missiles to hit Ukraine’s S-300 air defense missile systems in the southern Mykolaiv region and at an air base in Chuhuiv, a city not far from Kharkiv.
Russia’s sea-launched cruise missiles also destroyed the headquarters of a Ukrainian military unit stationed farther west in the Dnipro region, Konashenkov said. Neither the Ukrainian nor the Russian military claims could be independently verified.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy appealed for stronger military and political support from the West, including NATO members that have funneled weapons and military equipment to Ukraine since Russia invaded but denied some requests for fear of getting drawn into the war.
In a late night video message, Zelenskyy argued that more than Ukraine’s future was at stake: Russia’s aggression “was not intended to be limited to Ukraine alone” and the “entire European project is a target,” he said.
“That is why it is not just the moral duty of all democracies, all the forces of Europe, to support Ukraine’s desire for peace,” Zelenskyy said. “This is, in fact, a strategy of defense for every civilized state.”
Zelenskyy thanked the president of the European Union’s executive commission and Canada’s prime minister for a global fundraising event Saturday that brought in more than 10 billion euros ($11 billion) to help Ukrainians who have fled the war.
The U.N. refugee agency reported Sunday that more than 4.5 million people have left the country since the invasion started Europe’s worst ground conflict since World World II. As of Friday night, the U.N.’s human rights commissioner had confirmed 1,766 civilian deaths from more than six weeks of fighting - - 630 of them in the Donbas - while acknowledging the toll was likely a vast undercount.
After British Prime Minister Boris Johnson went to Kyiv on a Saturday trip that the U.K. government did not announce in advance, Zelenskyy said they had decided “what help the United Kingdom will provide to the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine” and that it includes a “patronage” to rebuild the Kyiv region.”
Ukrainian authorities have accused Russian forces of committing war crimes against thousands of civilians during the invasion. The alleged crimes took place during airstrikes on hospitals, a missile attack that killed 52 people at a train station in eastern Ukraine on Friday and as Russian soldiers withdrew from the outskirts of Kyiv.
Zelenskyy said that when he and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz spoke by phone Sunday, “we emphasized that all perpetrators of war crimes must be identified and punished.”
Ukraine has blamed Russia for alleged atrocities against civilians in Bucha and other towns outside the capital where hundreds of bodies, many with their hands bound and signs of torture, were found after the Russian troops retreated. Russia has denied engaging in war crimes and falsely claimed that the scenes in Bucha were staged.
After the Russian forces pulled out this week from the north, firefighters combed through the rubble of building in a search for victims or survivors in towns like Borodyanka. The center of the town of about 12,000, northwest of Kyiv, became almost a ghost town.
“I don’t believe my eyes, it’s hard to say but I don’t really believe my eyes that it’s possible,” said Natalia Shulhach, a 45-year-old teacher and resident of Borodyanka. “I don’t understand how that happens in the 21st century.”
In Mariupol, Russia was deploying Chechen fighters, reputed to be particularly fierce. Capturing the city on the sea of Azov would give Russia a land bridge to the Crimean Peninsula, which Russia seized from Ukriane eight years ago.
Residents have lacked food, water and electricity since Russian forces surrounded the city, making evacuations hard and supplying emergency relief even harder.
Zelenskyy has said he expects more evidence of atrocities to be found once Mariupol no longer is blockaded; Ukrainian authorities think an airstrike on a theater where civilians were sheltering killed hundreds.
“I am in shock. I don’t understand what is happening. I have a hole in my garage billowing smoke,” Mariupol resident Sergey Petrov told The Associated Press, describing a brush with death. “A shell flew in and broke up into two parts, but it did not explode. … My mother told me that I was born again on that day.”
Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk said more civilians were expected to leave Mariupol in their personal vehicles Sunday, while more evacuations were planned for a number of towns in the south and east.
The Institute for the Study of War, an American think tank, predicted Russian forces would focus their assault on the northern edge of a sickle-shaped arc of eastern Ukraine where the pro-Russia separatists and Russian forces have seized territory.
Russian forces will “renew offensive operations in the coming days” from Izyum, a town southeast of Kharkiv, to try to reach Slovyansk, even further southeast, the institute’s analysts said. But in their view, “The outcome of forthcoming Russian operations in eastern Ukraine remains very much in question.”
Ukrainian officials have pleaded with Western powers almost daily to send more arms and further punish Moscow with sanctions, including the exclusion of Russian banks from the global financial system and a total EU embargo on Russian gas and oil.
In an interview with The Associated Press inside his heavily guarded presidential office complex pm Saturday, Zelenskyy said he was committed to negotiating a diplomatic end to the war even though Russia has “tortured” Ukraine.
He also acknowledged that peace likely will not come quickly. Talks so far have not included Putin or other top Russian officials.
“We have to fight, but fight for life. You can’t fight for dust when there is nothing and no people. That’s why it is important to stop this war,” the president said.
In the interview with AP, Zelenskyy noted the increased support but expressed frustration when asked if weapons and equipment Ukraine has received from the West is sufficient to shift the war’s outcome.
“Not yet,” he said, switching to English for emphasis. “Of course it’s not enough.”

If there was ever a topic a parent might need to read up on, it’s potty training. Thankfully, there are loads of potty training books, for parents and kids alike. And it’s best you start investing in them sooner than later. That’s because potty training , well, it’s a marathon, not a sprint, and it’s never too early to lay the foundation for a successful transition into continence really early on with colorful, supportive stories about using the toilet.
On the toddler end of the spectrum, look for board books and simple stories that show children how empowering using the potty can be when they are ready . There are lots of fun takes on the topic, but the best, included here, have playful illustrations or a silly angle kids will want to read long after they’ve mastered flushing the toilet.
And as for potty training books for adults , there are lots of options on the market, but the best serve as a straightforward guide with step-by-step instructions on how to move on from the diaper phase. These titles will also help parents understand how to encourage their children so they can come out of the potty training gauntlet in one piece, tear-free, and ready for action. So take a deep breath, be patient, and try not to be too hard on your child or yourself.
What to consider before buying When shopping for potty training books for children, consider your child’s age. If they’re eager to test out the potty, but on the younger side, you might want to opt for illustration heavy potty training books. Older toddlers, say in the 3 to 3-and-a-half age range, might be reluctant to use the potty and could benefit from a book that has more of a story to it.
As for potty training manuals for parents, there are a variety of philosophies and strategies out there. What will work best for your child will depend on a number of factors, so you might want to consider buying more than one so you have options before you dive into potty training with your child.
We at Romper only include products that have been independently selected by our editors. We may receive a portion of sales if you purchase a product through a link in this article.
1 The best potty training book for young children Alona Frankel has written and illustrated 30 children’s books, so let’s just say, she knows her audience. That comes in handy here when the subject is potty training. In Frankel’s One Upon A Potty , kids can follow Prudence as she learns about her own potty. This book is designed for kids as young as 1, so you can use it as an introduction to the whole potty training experience.
2 The best rhyming potty training book Karen Katz’s A Potty For Me! flap book features all the requisite moments of potty training (accidents, parents sitting on the regular toilet next to a child sitting on a training potty, and more) told in sweet and straightforward rhymes. Tots will instantly recognize the scenes in this potty training book which make it a great tool to use as they explore independent trips to the bathroom.
3 The best humorous potty training book When it comes to books for very little kids, sometimes the illustrations are more important than the words. That’s the case with Potty , Leslie Patricelli’s potty training book. In it, kids get to see the main character not only find the potty, but make their own choice to try it. They’re introduced to underwear and how it might be a surprise to discover they have to poop instead of pee. It covers it all in fun illustrations.
4 The best potty training book for Daniel Tiger fans Do you have a Daniel Tiger fan in your house? Then you must buy Daniel Goes To The Potty . Just like the accompanying TV episode, here our favorite feline learns all about going to the bathroom and to make it even more entertaining, there’s a button to make a flush sound built into the book! Show your child that they can be like their favorite cartoon character with this potty training book.
5 The best potty training book for taboo-busting The go-to kid potty training book since 1977, there’s a reason Everyone Poops has had such a great run. That’s because it’s really a body science book disguised as a children’s book. In it, author Taro Gomi explains how every creature on earth makes some kind of bowel movement, from bunnies to elephants. As it turns out, that’s a very powerful concept that can actually help encourage kids to learn to go on their own.
6 The best potty training book for cartoon lovers Think of this Time to Pee! as both a kid-potty training story and a parental guide. Designed by cartoonist Mo Willems, it helps kids think about listening to their bodies — a critical skill in potty training — to understand them know when to go. Plus, the illustrations are super fun and designed in the classic Mo Willems fashion. The only complaint some parents had was that this book encourages males to stand and females to sit, which is not a hard and fast rule. Some may have better success sitting at first.
7 The best potty training book for fashionistas Need to give your child some incentive for using the potty? There’s the old M&M tactic or a sticker strategy option. But how about just telling your child about the fun of trading in diapers for all kinds of exciting underwear? That’s part of the approach in Big Girl Panties. It’s a whole new window into fashion that some kinds will find fascinating and might help put your little potty trainer reach full time flushing status.
8 The best potty training book for Elmo fans Let’s call Elmo what the muppet is: an influencer. If you want your kid to do something, having Elmo do it first is always a convincing step. So it’s only natural that Potty Time With Elmo potty training book might yield big results. Kids will love how Elmo is training his doll, Baby David, to use the potty. Even better? The book features seven fun buttons that make flushing and washing sounds, as well as words of encouragement, that go along with the story.
9 The best potty training book for kids who love fairy tales A brilliant fractured fairytale, in this story Goldilocks is on the hunt for a potty that’s “just right.” Will she find it? Using mixed-media illustrations, follow Goldi on her quest — perhaps like your own little one’s — to locate the potty of her dreams and get some great new undies in the process in Goldilocks and Just the Right Potty.
10 The best potty training book just for boys Why not make potty training a celebration. That’s the angle Alyssa Satin Capucilli goes for in The Potty Book For Boys . When a big box arrives for Henry, he’s so excited. Might it be a new toy? A new rocking chair? Nope, it’s a potty! And that means that he’s become such a big boy, he can let go of his diapers and move on to using the toilet full-time. Kids will feel the excitement of their next big developmental milestone as they read this sweet and silly story.
11 The best potty training book for kids who love stickers Specifically designed for potty training girls, with Ready to Go! Toilet Time: A Training Kit for Girls by expert child psychologist and mother of two Dr. Janet Hall, parents can follow a brief 16 page guide. To achieve potty training success, the book comes with two reward charts and stickers, so parents have all the tools they need to make potty training fun and fulfilling for their daughter. As one Amazon critic put it, “Clear, concise, and sequenced perfectly — toddler loves it.”
12 The best potty training book for straight-to-the-point instructions “A must have! I'm just about done me reading the book and I'm super confident to start potty training,” writes one Walmart critic of Oh Crap! Potty Training . Not a bad sign. If there’s one thing parents are hoping for when they embark on potty training, it’s to do it right the first time. Accidents may happen, but the last thing any parent wants is to see their child regress to diapers. “Oh Crap!” promises to make that happen using a six-step plan for children 20–30 months old. Just follow the steps and author Jamie Glowacki says you can have your toddler potty trained in days.
13 The best potty training book for a long weekend Want to put a hard number on how long it’ll take to potty train? How about Potty Training in 3 Days ? This potty training book blends psychology and step-by-step actions to help parents understand what’s going on in their child’s head while they get them restroom-ready. And with a 72% five star rating on Amazon, that method seems to pay off. As one critic wrote, “Finally something that worked for a stubborn 3 year old!”
14 The best potty training book for a tear-free strategy Tears, man. They’ll break your heart. Especially when it’s your child crying over having to use the toilet. Avoid the hysterics by opting for The No-Cry Potty Training Solution all about improving and boosting a child’s self-esteem while mastering potty training. As a bonus, this book also includes an essential list of bathroom safety checklists and childproofing strategies.
15 The best potty training book for stressed parents Two words parents love to hear: stress-free. That’s what this potty training book, Stress-Free Potty Training , promises. And delivers in a creative way. The book includes things like quizzes to help determine what potty training method will be best for their child. It also has sections to help determine a child’s readiness for potty training. In addition, it’s chock full of practical advice to clear away any potty training confusion.

My British Gas smart meter is showing £2,400 a DAY energy bill
A BRITISH Gas customer has complained a faulty smart meter is showing they use thousands of pounds worth of energy in a DAY.
The whopping energy bill amount appeared on the display of Jamie Watkinson-Harvey's device.
After moving into a new home in September last year with his husband Lewis, the couple say they have gone through seven smart meters.
Speaking to The Mirror, he said: "One model said I was using £2,400 per day in electric. The app only has electric data for February 13 and 14 now and I genuinely do not know how they intend to rectify.
"As a result of a faulty meter we have been unable to adjust any of our energy habits since moving into our new property."
On another day the tech incorrectly showed he had used £425 worth of electricity.
The couple said they successfully complained to the energy ombudsman about the service failures for meter issues they have had.
But their internal display remains unfixed and fails to show the correct usage, they say.
Smart meters are designed to monitor your usage showing how much gas or electric you use and how much it costs.
They can also digitally send readings to your energy supplier, and in future may be used to offer dynamic tariffs that make it cheaper to use appliances at quieter times.
Most read in Money
Many billpayers say the devices can help save money on bills as they cut down on what they use.
But things don't always go right with the technology.
Households have complained about incorrect readings and smart meters not displaying, while older models may stop working when you switch to a new supplier.
SSE customer Adrian Vanheems, 72, told The Sun how he woke one morning to find his smart meter showing he owed an absurd £41,000 for just five hours of energy usage.
Energy companies install smart meters in customer's homes and you can contact your supplier if you want one.
You won't have to pay to have a smart meter installed. If you're offered one, you don't have to accept it, Citizens Advice says.
British Gas has been contacted for comment.
What to do if your mart meter is faulty
If your smart meter is not working properly, your supplier should investigate and replace the meter if required.
In the meantime, you should continue to take meter readings in the usual way to track your usage.
Suppliers should try to get a proper meter reading at least once a year.
Smart meters can show the wrong energy usage on the display, but still record the correct amount of energy you use with the supplier.
But it can be frustrating to see the incorrect cost if you use the meter to monitor your energy use.
It is hard to know if you are being billed incorrectly or if it is simply a price rise.
Energy bills have rocketed by hundreds of pounds for millions of Brits as the price cap went up 54% on April 1.
That includes a standing charge, which is a daily amount that you pay for gas and electric regardless of your usage.
If your bill jumps suddenly, it is worth checking with your supplier. Take a look at your consumption and work out if that has gone up.
Avoid estimated bills at all costs. Give your provider a meter reading every month and take a photo as evidence.
Suppliers can only bill you for the previous 12 months if the error was its mistake.
How to complain about your energy company
If you are not happy with what your energy firm says, or it does not sort your problem, you can report the firm to the Energy Ombudsman.
You must have complained to your supplier and given the firm eight weeks to resolve the problem.
The ombudsman will then take a look at your case and decide whether you are entitled to compensation.
You must take your case to the ombudsman within 12 months of your supplier telling you of its decision.
Energy expert Tashema Jackson, of energyhelpline. com, says: “There is nothing more frustrating than being incorrectly charged for anything. But in a time of rising bills and high energy usage, suppliers getting your energy bill wrong is particularly irritating.
“They should take steps to resolve it promptly. If you feel things are taking too long, raise a formal complaint. Then, if that is not resolved to your satisfaction, you will be able to take your complaint to the Energy Ombudsman.”

When you ask employees at Carver Cos. what they like best about their job, the answer is typically centered on a workplace culture that allows them to succeed and encourages teamwork.
That culture has led the company to be named one of the top workplaces in the Capital Region.
The Carver name has long been synonymous with the Port of Coeymans. In its 33 years of existence, the heavy construction and civil engineering company has grown to over 500 employees, with 385 in the Capital Region. The company handles millions of tons of sand and gravel, private, public and commercial construction as well as a host of maritime tasks.
For more than 10 years, the Times Union has partnered with Energage to rank the top workplaces in the Capital Region. This year, more than 15,500 employees rated their workplace culture — and the results are in. Check out the honorees:
— Large employers: 300 or more employees
— Midsize employers: 100 to 299 employees
— Small employers: Fewer than 100 employees
— Special honors: Highlighting specific survey scores
This year’s leadership awards went to Carver Laraway of Carver Cos., Sonny Bonacio of Bonacio Construction and Morgan Ruthman of The Spinney Group.
Learn about the survey methodology.
Surveyed on what they liked about their job, employees offered responses that indicated the company's workplace culture gave them the freedom to accomplish their objectives and that they were appreciated by their bosses.
“Once my training began, I had all the tools and knowledge after three days to start on my own. I couldn’t believe how helpful everyone was and how well they work together as a team,” one employee wrote.
“It challenges me daily, and when I overcome these challenges, I’m recognized for it by my supervisors. There is room to grow within the company, and the company will always be looking out for my best interest,” another employee wrote.
Carver Laraway, president and CEO, said that workplace culture was built on a specific set of expectations.
“At Carver Companies we expect our employees to work smart, work safe, stay focused, be team-oriented and take pride in their work,” he said.
Q: What does the company’s culture reflect?
A: Carver’s culture is reflected in safety, respect, accountability, hard work, teamwork, and never saying no to challenging projects.
Q: How do you encourage that culture?
A: I want all employees to feel as if they own the company. I want employees to understand the business and we’ve even created an investment group, where employees can profit from Carver Companies’ success.
Q: What makes a good supervisor for Carver Cos.?
A: They develop their team and push them to learn skills and gain new experiences. They give employees a career path to higher pay and more responsible positions. They communicate performance objectives, daily tasks and overall company goals. They also take the time to listen to employees and follow up with them.
Q: Has Carver had to pivot at all during the past year to deal with supply issues?
A: The partnership that we have created with many of our suppliers goes back decades. Some of which extend back to the beginning days of Carver Companies. Given these relationships, we have been fortunate to not be hit as hard as some others but that is not to say there aren’t supply chain challenges faced every day in the current economic environment.

It was a Premier League day that could hardly have gone any better for Tottenham.
With its 4-0 win at Aston Villa — inspired by Son Heung-min’s hat trick — and losses for both Arsenal and Manchester United on Saturday, Tottenham became favorite to claim the fourth and final Champions League qualification spot.
Antonio Conte’s team is hitting form just as its rivals are imploding and now has a three-point cushion in fourth place over Arsenal, which slumped 2-1 at home to Brighton for a third loss in its last fourth games.
As for United, a 1-0 loss at an Everton team that had been in freefall constituted another low in what has turned into a desperate season. One, remarkably, that could yet end without qualification for European competition.
United is in seventh place, six points behind Tottenham and with plenty of traffic between them.
In Son, Harry Kane and Dejan Kulusevski, Tottenham has an attacking triumvirate that is proving impossible to keep down, and they scored and assisted all four goals against Villa.
Son now has six goals in his last three league games, having opened the scoring in the third minute after a shot from Kane deflected into his path at the edge of the area. His finish was unforgiving, kissing the post on its way in just like his third goal — in the 71st and off a pass from Kulusevski — which completed his first hat trick of the season.
Two glancing headers from Kane set up the other goals from Kulusevski and Son in the 50th and 66th minutes.
Tottenham and Arsenal meet in their third-to-last matches of the season, respectively. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will just be hoping his team isn’t out of the running by then.
ARSENAL’S ABSENCES
The absences of first-choice left back Kieran Tierney and influential holding midfielder Thomas Partey are proving significant for Arsenal, disrupting the team’s defensive solidity established under Arteta.
Five days after a 3-0 defeat at Crystal Palace, Arsenal was undone by goals from Leandro Trossard and Enock Mwepu for Brighton. Martin Odegaard scored an 89th-minute consolation for Arsenal.
“We know with the team we have available the difficult challenge we have ahead, that is for sure,” Arteta said. “The injuries make the situation more complicated but we are not looking for excuses.”
One positive for Arsenal is the game in hand it has over Tottenham, though that is a rearranged meeting with third-place Chelsea.
LACKLUSTER UNITED
With a spot in the Champions League on the line, United has been held to a draw at home by Leicester and now lost to a relegation-threatened team in Everton.
Anthony Gordon was Everton’s match-winner against United, with his 27th-minute effort deflecting in off the outstretched leg of the unfortunate Harry Maguire.
Interim United manager Ralf Rangnick refused to accept that the search for a new manager to take over for next season is leaving the team in limbo
“The players themselves should be eager to play international football, if possible Champions League,” Rangnick said.
“But if we play like we did here, we just don’t deserve it. In order to qualify for Europe you have to be able to score in 95 minutes in a game like this.”
Everton moved four points clear of the bottom three, with third-from-last Burnley visiting Norwich next weekend.
ANOTHER HUMILIATION
Having lost 9-0 in each of the last two seasons, Southampton looked set to be beaten by a similar scoreline when Chelsea romped into a 6-0 lead after 54 minutes of their match at St. Mary’s Stadium.
Mercifully, Chelsea eased up in the final half-hour ahead of a trip to Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday and that’s how the game finished.
Mason Mount and Timo Werner both scored twice while there were also goals for Marcos Alonso and Kai Havertz.
“It seems,” Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl said, “we have to have one game like this a season, which is not nice to watch and very hard to take.”
Chelsea consolidated third place in the league and looks almost certain of returning to the Champions League next season, having moved eight points clear of fifth-place Arsenal. It is 10 points behind second-place Liverpool.
In the day’s other game, next-to-last Watford lost 3-0 to Leeds and slipped six points from safety.

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

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has admitted that preparations ahead of a Liverpool game is 'a bit different' compared to any other fixture. The Cityzens will take on Jurgen Klopp's side on Sunday in the Premier League and it could be a game that could go on to decide the title.
Pep Guardiola has admitted that the Reds are not like any other opposition and he checks the dates of the Liverpool games at the beginning of the season. The Manchester City manager has claimed that beating the Reds 'will not be enough, but it will be an important step.'
Guardiola said, as quoted by Sky Sports: "In the beginning of the season and then two or three months ago, I said, 'what date is Liverpool? When do we play against them?'"
"Of course everything is different because we know it's seven games left and we are only one point ahead."
"Winning will not be enough, but it will be an important step. And we know… 'wow, this is the game'. You know it, we know it."
Guardiola has insisted that preparation to face the Reds is 'different' because 'no other team in all around the world' can do what Jurgen Klopp's side are capable of doing.
The Manchester City boss has also hailed Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz as the 'incredible five' and also mentioned Divock Origi for his 'decisive goals'.
Guardiola added: "So I'm not going to deny it's different to any other game. And the preparations are a bit different, you know, especially because they do something that no other team in all around the world do - the movement they have."
"The threats that they have in front - they had an incredible three players (Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino) and now an incredible five with Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota. Plus Divock Origi who always scores when they need to make decisive goals."
Manchester City vs Liverpool should be a thrilling encounter
Manchester City vs Liverpool has all the ingredients to be a cracker of a watch for the neutrals, albeit nerve-wracking for both sets of fans. With the Premier League title at stake, both managers will look to ensure that they get all three points at any cost.
Manchester City, who currently lead their opponents by just one point, will look to make the most of their home advantage.

Brown Jackson confirmation a bend toward justice
On March 25, 1965, on the steps of the Capitol Building in Montgomery Alabama, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. prophetically answered a proverbial question, “How long? Not long, because the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." Not long, indeed!
As I watched the confirmation hearing for our soon-to-be Associate Supreme Court Justice, Ketanji Brown Jackson, I was reminded of the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. I felt a tremendous sense of pride and optimism that is long overdue. How long? Not as long as it has been. This is not just an accomplishment for future Supreme Court Justice Brown Jackson, but it is a personal victory for all Black women.
All the rejected job applications and denied promotions due to some random and selective criteria reserved for “just us,” but with no justice, all the salary disparities and income inequities, all the impossible hurdles that we are regularly expected to overcome, and of which we dare not complain, are suddenly not as difficult to swallow.
I know that Justice Brown Jackson anticipated the passive-aggressive attacks and the microaggressions that were lurking in the background waiting for her. Black women collectively and quietly knew that the latest Supreme Court nominee would face much more scrutiny than the latter. We expected the additional scrutiny. We knew that Justice Brown Jackson was prepared for it because she, like all Black women in America, was “born in the briar patch.”
She gracefully rose to the occasion. She cracked a glass ceiling that just a few years ago would have been impenetrable. There is an excitement, a new sense of optimism that a brilliant, imminently qualified Black woman has now been confirmed to the highest court in the land. It shouldn’t have been such a novelty. After all, she has been trained and groomed for this moment. Ironically, her past adversities have proven quite beneficial. It prepared her for this moment. She showed us how to be professional, yet unflappable under intense and unnecessary scrutiny. The unintended consequence of racism is that it prepares us for intellectual battle.
I have often pointed out to frustrated students of color that it is, in fact, beneficial to overcome systemic racism, to get an education despite the obstacles. The future is bright for those who can persevere; the victory that much sweeter because the race is so difficult. Not only does the appointment of our freshly minted Supreme Court justice accentuate the positive, but it is a testament that hard work and perseverance will be rewarded in the United States of America, even for a Black woman!
Granted, this appointment does not fix the income gap for women of color, nor does it fix the disproportionate incarceration rates of our loved ones. It doesn’t fix the current attacks on our right to vote, and it might not protect a women’s right to choose. But it’s a very good start!

FREDERICK, Md. (AP) — About 10 years after being diagnosed, John Kraft wanted to join a local Parkinson’s disease support group — but there wasn’t one.
A staff member at Johns Hopkins Hospital suggested Kraft start a group of his own, and he did.
Twenty people came the first day.
“We knew right then … there was definitely a need in Frederick County for a Parkinson’s support group,” said Kraft’s wife, Mary, 78, of Mount Airy.
The Friends in Frederick Parkinson’s Disease Support Group has been active since its founding in 1996.
Another local support group, the Parkinson’s Disease Support Group of Frederick, meets regularly as well.
Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects dopamine levels in the brain, according to the Parkinson’s Foundation. Symptoms manifest differently from person to person but can include tremors, balance issues, speech problems and more. There is no cure, but treatment and medication can help people with Parkinson’s manage symptoms.
Friends in Frederick support group’s members includes people with Parkinson’s disease, their caregivers and family members.
“The more involved I got, the more I saw the benefit,” said Walkersville resident John Nicodemus, 65.
As Nicodemus tells it, the group offers a network of resources and friendship. If someone is feeling down about a new symptom they developed, the group is there to lift them up. Or if a member wants to share a joy, the group’s there for that, too.
“Yes, I have Parkinson’s, but Parkinson’s doesn’t have me,” Nicodemus said.
As the group’s leader, Nicodemus likes to open monthly meetings with a joke or two. If anyone’s left after his jokes, he said with a chuckle, members then share a meal and listen to a speaker, often someone from the medical community who can provide relevant information.
Nicodemus compares the group to pies, but not the dessert. Perspective, information, encouragement and support, or “PIES” for short, is what he gets from the experience. “Those are the four things I think I receive or I can give.”
Mount Airy resident Steve Silvious, 69, manages the group’s website, fifpdsg.org.
His late wife, Janet, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in her 40s and lived with it for 22 years. Silvious said the disease can feel isolating.
“When you’ve got something like this you feel like you’re alone,” Silvious said, but the Friends in Frederick group showed they weren’t.
Janet served as group leader prior to her death this past October. Attending the support group together, Silvious said there were often moments he and his wife would look at each other when a speaker said something that resonated with them. They were married nearly 50 years. Silvious said the Friends in Frederick group provided a community for him as a caregiver and a place for his wife to meet people who understood her experiences firsthand.
“The focus of our group is to get people with Parkinson’s together,” Silvious said. “It also gives us a chance to sit down with each other and talk about the disease.”
People chat about what medications and mobility aids work for them, for example, and let others know they aren’t alone. They’re made aware of resources like local exercise classes, which can help people manage Parkinson’s. And Silvious said members don’t have to feel self-conscious about a tremor or other symptoms showing — because other people have them, too.
“You’d be surprised how many people are feeling the same thing,” Mary Kraft said.
At age 76, John Kraft has taken a step back from leading meetings as his Parkinson’s has advanced, but he still has a perfect attendance record.
He said it’s important to stay physically active when you have Parkinson’s.
It also helps to have a sense of humor.
The Friends in Frederick group, John Kraft says, helps him to do both of those things.
“Don’t be afraid to come to a support group,” Mary Kraft said. “You might be surprised what you find there.”

Kent Thiry is a guinea pig. A very rich, very bombastic, big, blond guinea pig.
Last week began the criminal trial of Thiry and DaVita, the company where he served as CEO and chairman of the board. The U.S. Department of Justice has charged Thiry and DaVita with violation of the Sherman Anti-trust Act by conspiring with other companies to avoid hiring senior-level executives away from each other.
There is a lot to unpack in this trial.
First, the Sherman Anti-Trust Act, the bill codified in 15 U.S. Code § 1, has been around awhile. Congress passed the bill in 1890 as a response to the hoarding of corporate power wrought by America’s Gilded Age. It makes it a felony to contract or conspire in restraint of trade or commerce.
For example, John Rockefeller’s Standard Oil effectively monopolized the oil industry by the late 19th century. His oil company held far too much sway over the lives of everyday Americans. Now we have multiple competing oil companies holding far too much sway over the lives of everyday Americans.
In the interim, the DOJ has never brought a criminal case against any person or company like the one it has brought against Thiry and DaVita.
This is the kind of thing the DOJ can do with its limitless resources. When it decides it wants to test a new theory of law — in this case that collusion between companies to prevent poaching of senior-level executives is illegal — it can pick and choose the right case to bring. And when it does, it can lean into it.
A case like this does not proceed simply because some random prosecutor decides to go right wrongs. It is something mulled for years across multiple levels and jurisdictions. Eventually a handful of potential cases are culled and eventually one proceeds. That case will be followed across the country and into the highest offices of the DOJ.
What the DOJ really wants is a precedent. Specifically, they want a rule making market-allocation of employees through non-solicitation agreements as illegal as the market-allocation of customers or geographic areas.
Thiry and DaVita are effectively collateral damage. Of course that is not the company line out of the DOJ.
The DOJ will cast Thiry as a modern-day robber baron attempting to corrupt the American system of business. They will say his business practices are a threat to every Average Joe and Average Jane working for big companies across the country (even if senior-level health care executives are hardly representative of the American workforce).
They will use his significant wealth and public persona to his detriment. The current political and socio-economic climate has given rise to significant populist movements on the right and the left. Both love to vilify men like Thiry.
Yet Thiry is not too rich. He is not too powerful or too well known. He is not a billionaire tech mogul. He is not even the head of a major hospital system or a pharmaceutical company. He is not so strong that the DOJ cannot push him around.
In the grand scheme of things, DaVita is a big fish in a small pond. It is one of the two dominant kidney dialysis providers in the U.S. But that is just one small segment of the much larger health care industry.
READ: Colorado Sun opinion columnists.
That brings up a major obstacle for the DOJ — their allegations are not that DaVita and Fresenius Medical Care, the other major dialysis provider — colluded among themselves. Rather they claim that the illegal conduct took place between DaVita and companies in other segments of the health care industry. That could be a fatal flaw in their argument.
For a few more weeks Colorado will remain at the forefront of federal prosecutions across the country. As the presiding judge, the Honorable R. Brooke Jackson pointed out, it really is a “big deal.”

Love for the land led Sahtu sisters to same scholarship
Naokah and Jasmine Bailes both won a scholarship for enviromental studies
A pair of sisters from Norman Wells, N.W.T. say time spent growing up on the land inspired their education — and now, it's earned both of them the same scholarship.
Naokah Bailes, 21 and Jasmine Bailes, 18, have both received the Sahtú Renewable Resources Board's environmental studies scholarship.
"I want to … do what I can to protect and preserve the land, the Sahtu lands, for future generations," Jasmine told Lawrence Nayally, the host of CBC's Trail's End. She is taking environmental studies at the University of Alberta.
Jasmine said she and her sister learned how to hunt and fish on the land, and would spend time with family on Great Bear Lake. She wants to make sure other N.W.T. families get to have that experience.
"I really want to learn more about the Sahtu, especially anything I can about our culture and the landscape and stuff, but also more from a biology based perspective, getting to know the little things that make up the land that we cherish," she said. "I've always … considered the land sacred."
While Jasmine studies in Edmonton, her sister is pursuing a slightly different education in Prince George, B.C. Naokah is taking a nature-based tourism management program at the University of Northern British Columbia, and she hopes to minor in environment and sustainability studies too.
"I hope to go back to the North to continue working in the tourism industry," she said.
Both sisters have been working with northern tourism operators since the age of 13, and Naokah said they were often the only Sahtu beneficiaries involved.
She wants to create more opportunities for Sahtu youth to get involved in the industry.
"I hope I'm also able to inspire, or be a voice, for Indigenous women in the outdoor industry. That's also very important for me."
The scholarship ranges in value, from $2,000 for a first-year student up to $3,500 for a third- or fourth-year student. One of its requirements is that applicants must be a Sahtu beneficiary or an N.W.T. resident who finished Grade 11 and 12 in the Sahtu Settlement Area.

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

Savings warning: Poor mental health can 'worsen' Britons’ debt issues
A WARNING has been issued that poor mental health can "worsen" people's financial issues.
Interest rates: Expert advises on savings and mortgages
This follows a recent survey carried out by Citizens Advice Scotland (CAS) that found that three-quarters of adults in the country have had their mental health negatively impacted by the pandemic. The polling, conducted by YouGov, revealed that 77 percent of those in debt, or at risk of debt since the coronavirus crisis began, admitted their financial issues had exacerbated their mental health issues. Furthermore, 30 percent of people surveyed said it had affected them a “great deal”, while 47 percent said it impacted them a “fair amount”.
Former analysis from CAS had previously shown that 600,000 people encountered debt problems in Scotland.
The country’s financial problems are not forecast to get better anytime soon due to rising inflation and energy bills.
Speaking exclusively to Express.co.uk, CAS financial spokesperson Sarah-Jayne Dunn shared how poor mental health and debt issues often overlap and feed into each other.
Ms Dunn explained: “Many people with mental health issues face inaccessible support when seeking assistance with their financial difficulties.

“Advisers across our network highlighted cases where services would only provide online application processes with no alternative route for vulnerable clients.
“Additionally, there are instances where clients with mental health and money issues aren't advised of additional support they could be entitled to, including even potential income maximisation support.
“This in turn can worsen their debt situation and further exacerbate their mental health issues or poor mental wellbeing.”
The poverty expert also acknowledged there are a variety of organisations and bodies which can step in to help people who are most in need.
She added: “These instances highlight the vast amount of missed opportunities to disrupt the vicious cycle of money and mental health problems.
“There are a range of players from governments, employers, financial services to the mental health system itself who can all play their part in breaking this link and ensuring support is available and accessible for those dealing with money and mental health problems.
“Citizens Advice Scotland would like to see these policies built on which specifically support people with mental health issues trying to deal with their financial difficulties such as managing their money or problem debt.”
On top of this, Ms Dunn urged both the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and Social Security Scotland to create policies which specifically assist those who suffer from poor mental health.
The expert said: “This would help break this link by ensuring people with mental health issues get the right support at the right time."
One course of action which would demonstrate this change is to introduce a Mental Health and Money Charter.
“The Charter would set out a baseline of principles highlighting the minimum standards of someone experiencing mental health and money problems from a creditor, whether public or private, when seeking support with their financial situation.
“It would bring a clear focus on the connection between mental health and money as well as providing practical guidance for firms and public bodies on how to achieve these minimum standards.”
On top of this, she also recommended assistance for debt can be offered via the NHS when people seek help initially.
“For someone with poor mental wellbeing or mental ill health, dealing with unaffordable debts can feel unsolvable but accessible, free debt advice can be transformative,” Ms Dunn said.
“For this to be effective, debt advice should be presented to people with mental health issues during the recovery phase of their mental health journey as a non-clinical intervention.
“The NHS and government could play a vital role by commissioning services which offer money advice within local mental health support settings.”

MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) — Two bald eagles in the state were found to be infected with avian influenza, the Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife says.
One of the birds was found dead in South Hero and the other was discovered ill in Shelburne. Both birds were near Lake Champlain.
With the discovery, Vermont joined 33 other states that have detected highly pathogenic avian influenza in the environment, the state says.
While some waterfowl species can carry the disease without becoming sick, the virus is generally fatal for domestic poultry.
The state says anyone involved with poultry production, from the small backyard coop to large commercial producers, should review their biosecurity measures.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention considers the risk to the general public from the virus to be low, but the virus can be deadly to domestic and commercial poultry and backyard birds.
The virus is often introduced to domestic poultry by infected wild birds through direct contact or contact with their droppings. It may spread between poultry flocks.
Human movement onto farms should be limited and non-essential personnel and visitors should not be allowed.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Alexander Volkanovski mauled Chan Sung Jung at UFC 273 early Sunday, earning a technical knockout seconds into the fourth round to retain the featherweight belt.
The 33-year-old Volkanovski (24-1) extended his professional winning streak to 21, including an 11-0 mark in UFC competition.
Jung, better known as “the Korean Zombie,” was battered, bloodied and struggling to breathe after the first three rounds. He insisted he wanted to keep going, but the referee stopped the bout 45 seconds into the fourth of five championship rounds.
“Too (expletive) good,” Volkanovski shouted inside the octagon after his latest victory.
“Alexander the Great” delivered most of the blows in a fight that looked like it might end much earlier than it actually did. Volkanovski’s last four fights went the distance. But he was considerably quicker than Jung, essentially putting on a clinic in mixed martial arts.
“I’m on another level right now and I can’t be stopped,” Volkanovski said, adding he was hoping the ref would halt the fight sooner and that he felt bad for Jung in the final minutes.
“It felt like I hit a wall that I could not go over,” said Jung, who was making his first title bout since 2013. He went 3,171 days between shots at the featherweight belt.
The 35-year-old Jung dropped to the mat after the fight was called and later indicated through an interpreter that he might consider retirement.
The main event was the most lopsided on UFC 273’s main card.
Aljamain Sterling became the undisputed bantamweight champion by defending his belt against Petr Yan. They were involved in a controversial disqualification a little more than a year ago. Yan was DQ’d for an illegal knee after dominating the fight.
Sterling (21-3) looked like a different fighter in this one, controlling Yan on the mat for nearly eight minutes in the second and third rounds. Yan (16-3) battled back in the final two rounds, doing enough to get a split decision.
“I think I won this fight and I got robbed,” Yan said. “I want a rematch.”
Sterling had no plans for a trilogy fight with Yan, instead calling out former bantamweight champ T.J. Dillashaw for his next bout.
UFC’s third trip to Jacksonville in three years drew a packed house that included Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski, Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby, Jaguars minority owner Tony Khan and legendary wrestling announcer Jim Ross.
They were treated to an epic event.
Not only did they get two title fights to close out the night, but they witnessed arguably the best bout of the year. Sweden’s Khamzat Chimaev took another step toward mixed martial arts stardom with a unanimous decision against 35-year-old Brazilian Gilbert Burns in the welterweight division.
Chimaev and Burns went to toe-to-toe for three rounds, exchanging punches and raising their profiles. It was Chimaev’s most impressive outing to date and proved he’s a potential championship contender.
Chimaev (11-0) remained undefeated and answered any lingering questions about how good he could be by taking down the second-ranked Burns (20-5).
“I didn’t know he was so tough,” Chimaev said.
Chimaev hadn’t gone to a third round in any of his previous professional fights. He was gassed and gashed by the final round in this one, his first against a ranked opponent.
“This is what I was waiting for,” said Chimaev, a sizable cut under his left eye. “I’m in pain, bloody and tired.”
Other fights on the main card:
— Mackenzie Dern (12-2) used a split decision against Tecia Torres to win for the fifth time in her last six fights. With her husband and young daughter sitting cage side, Dern dominated the second round thanks to a variety of Brazilian jiu-jitsu moves. But the 32-year-old Torres (13-6) escaped two submission holds and was impressive over the final five minutes to nearly upset the fifth-ranked woman in the strawweight division.
— Three-time Olympian Mark Madsen (12-0) remained undefeated with a unanimous decision over 39-year-old Vinc Pichel (14-3) in the lightweight division. Madsen won a silver medal for Denmark in the 2016 Olympic Games in Brazil.

Sri Lankan President to Meet With Rebel Lawmakers for Talks on Interim Cabinet
MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Sri Lanka’s embattled president, Gotabaya Rajapaksa, invited 41 lawmakers who quit the government amid the nation’s worst economic crisis to meet for talks on a caretaker government on Sunday.
Maithripala Sirisena, the leader of the Freedom Party that withdrew its support of Rajapaksa, said the meeting was set for 7 p.m. local time (13:30 GMT), according to the Ada Derana daily.
Dozens of lawmakers from Rajapaksa’s coalition chose to sit in parliament as independents after accusing him of economic mismanagement, effectively stripping the government of majority support.
Sirisena said the rebels wanted Rajapaksa to put a unity government in place for the duration of the transitional period and curtail his executive powers in order to deal with the crisis.
Sri Lanka plunged into chaos after a lack of essential items and rolling power cuts caused nationwide protests. The country relies on tourists for foreign currency to import food and fuel and months of pandemic restrictions have starved it of money.

The New Jersey Devils faced the Dallas Stars, who are trying to hold on to the 2nd wild card spot in the western conference, in a Saturday afternoon matchup.
The beginning of the game, as usual, saw nothing much happen. The first interesting moment happened a few minutes in. Exactly when I don’t know, as once again MSG’s scorebug clock broke. Esa Lindell tried to pick a corner from the left circle and Daws made the glove save.
Damon Severson went to the box for high sticking Jason Robertson, giving the first power play of the game to the Stars.
The Devils got a clear early and didn’t give the Stars many chances, killing the penalty.
With 9:48 left, Daws made a save on Pavelski on the doorstep.
A minute or so later, Tatar got the first decent Devils chance on a backhander in front, but Oettinger made the save.
The Devils did not have much going on offensively in the game. The Stars are a good defensive team and it was showing.
Dallas was certainly getting much more o-zone time than the Devils. It seemed like most of the play was in the New Jersey zone. The Stars were getting some chances too, but never several in a row. The Devils got a chance on a Mercer tip, but it went wide. However, the Stars did take a penalty on the play, giving the Devils their first power play of the game.
The Devils devils’d and go no shots on their power play. Following the man advantage, Kuokkanen pinned the puck to the boards and refused to move it, so eventually the refs blew the whistle.
2nd Period
Less than a minute in, Tomas Tatar went on a 2 on 1 and fired a shot far side. Oettinger just barely tipped it wide with his glove.
Dallas went the other way and Studenic (remember him?) set up Benn for a tip that just went wide.
AJ Greer got called for a hook in the neutral zone, giving Dallas its 2nd power play of the game.
During the power play, I forgot the Stars had a man advantage for a moment, and it did look that way, an excellent kill for the Devils.
The Stars had a few passes in the Devils zone, but eventually Boqvist got the puck out and up to Bratt, who went on a 2 on 1 with Kuokkanen. Bratt passed it across and Kuokkanen had an open net cutting to the other side, but got tripped up and couldn’t put the puck in.
Daws made a save on a Robertson tip in front.
Sharangovich had a chance in the slot, but Faksa blocked it. Shortly afterwards, Boqvist set up Zetterlund for a one timer, but Oettinger made the save.
Ty Smith got tripped up afterwards, so the Devils got their second power play… but almost right off the draw, Zacha accidentally tripped a PKer going for the puck, negating the penalty.
Daws made a save on Heiskanen in the high slot
Boqvist got called for hooking a guy breaking for the net. The first part of the kill went okay, but right after a draw, a Ryan Suter point shot beat Daws, who was being screened by Bahl, giving Dallas the first lead of the game.
With 4:06 left in the period, Zetterlund almost set up Boqvist for a top chance, but the hard pass bounced off his stick.
The Devils got called for a too many men bench minor, so the Stars went to the power play once again.
Radulov got set up for a great chance, but he hit the outside of the net. The Stars had the Devils hemmed in for a while, but eventually Sharangovich tipped a pass out of the zone. He then got himself a breakaway, but Klingberg lifted his stick, making him lose the handle.
The first half of the last minute was wild, with the Stars almost having great chances and almost scoring several times.
3rd Period
Boqvist showed his speed coming down the left side, but Oettinger made the save.
Ty Smith tied the game at 15:34. He received a pass from Hischier, skated forward, skated in more, and then fired a wrister past the glove of Oettinger with no one covering him.
Shortly after, Ty Smith again skated in from the left and tried to pull it backhand, but was tripped from behind, drawing a penalty in the process.
This power play was much better than the previous ones. The Devils had some good puck movement, finally some urgency on the power play that we haven’t seen much of. Zacha had 3 shot attempts on the power play and Sharangovich had 1 good shot on the 2nd wave. As the time on the advantage wound down, Johnsson took a penalty for cross checking in front of the net.
The Devils did a good job killing the penalty. Tatar got himself a breakaway but lost the puck trying to dangle Oettinger.
With a commercial break at 5:58 left in the 3rd and the game tied 1-1, it looked like the game might be headed to overtime.
With 3:24 left in regulation, Mercer fed Sharangovich, who ripped a shot off the post
Subban had a slapper from a little bit in from the point that Oettinger made a glove save on
The clock got down to under 2 minutes, when Nico Hischier decided he’d had enough of a tie game. He got the puck in the oz, protected it, did some spin moves, passed it to Bahl, received the return pass, carried it behind the net, spun through Seguin, pushed through Seguin to the net, and beat Oettinger to give the Devils their first lead of the game with under 2 to go.
Right off the faceoff, Severson collected the puck in his own end. A lead pass and the puck found itself on the stick of Jesper Boqvist, who skated ahead on a 2 on 1 and passed it across to Zacha, who beat Oettinger under the glove to give the Devils insurance.
For the first time since February 24, the Devils won a road game.

I came back to do professional singing about eight years ago.

The latest in a string of violent attacks in the region has left 17-year-old Connor Harper in hospital with potentially life-changing injuries.
Connor was shot three times at around 7.30pm on Friday at Homer Hill Park on Homer Hill Road in Cradley, with the attackers believed to be in a car with blacked out windows.
The teenager, from Rowley Regis was taken to hospital following the incident, which saw the road closed off while officers from West Midlands Police searched the area for evidence.
His mother Amanda Harper took to Facebook to leave a message of thanks to everyone who has messaged her about Connor, but also said that she wasn't sure whether he's be able to walk again.
She said: "Thank you to everyone asking how Connor is, it means a lot.
"Just to let everyone know he’s been shot three times in the back with a gun and it’s not known for sure that he’ll be able to walk again but thank you for everyone who have asked about him."
The attack on a quiet street next to a family park is just the latest in a string of violent incidents in recent weeks.
A man has been charged with attempted murder after a woman was stabbed outside an infant school in Walsall, while two schoolboys suspected of stabbing a 15-year-old boy in Wolverhampton city centre have been released on baill.
The commander of Walsall Police Chief Superintendent Phil Dolby had described officers being forced to fight for their lives while dealing with drunken violence in Walsall, while two teenagers were left with serious stab injuries after an incident in Stourbridge on March 15.
Anyone with information about the Cradley shooting is asked to contact police via Live Chat at west-midlands.police.uk or by calling 101 quoting log 3446 of 8/4.
Alternatively, contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111 or at crimestoppers-uk.org

Experts: Asian population overcount masks community nuances
PHOENIX (AP) — Jennifer Chau was astonished last month when the U.S. Census Bureau’s report card on how accurately it counted the U.S. population in 2020 showed that Asian people were overcounted by the highest rate of any race or ethnic group.
The director of an Asian American advocacy group thought thousands of people would be missed — outreach activities had been scratched by the coronavirus pandemic, and she and her staff feared widespread language barriers and wariness of sharing information with the government could hinder participation. They also thought recent attacks against Asian Americans could stir up fears within the Asian population, the fastest-growing race or ethnic group in the U.S.
“I’m honestly shocked,” said Chau, director of the Arizona Asian American Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander For Equity Coalition.
But Chau and other advocates and academics also believe the overcounting of the Asian population by 2.6% in the once-a-decade U.S. head count may not be all that it seems on the surface. They say it likely masks great variation in who was counted among different Asian communities in the U.S. They also believe it could signal that biracial and multiracial residents identified as Asian in larger numbers than in the past.
The specifics are difficult to determine because all Asian communities are grouped together under the same race category in the census. This conceals the wide variety of income, education and health backgrounds between subgroups and tends to blur characteristics unique to certain communities, some advocates said. It may also perpetuate the “model minority” myth of Asians being affluent and well-educated.
“Asian Americans have the largest income inequality than any other racial groups in the U.S. and the overall overcount likely masks the experiences of Asian ethnic groups who were more vulnerable to being undercounted,” said Aggie Yellow Horse, an assistant professor of Asian Pacific American Studies at Arizona State University.
Almost four dozen U.S. House members this month asked the Census Bureau to break down the accuracy of the count of Asian residents by subgroups. Asians in the U.S. trace their roots to more than 20 countries, with China and India having the largest representation. But the bureau has no plans to do so, at least not in the immediate future.
“To really see how the Asian American community fared, you need lower level geography to understand if there was an undercount or if certain communities fared better than others,” said Terry Ao Minnis, senior director of census and voting programs at Asian Americans Advancing Justice.
Asians were overcounted by a higher rate than any other group. White residents who aren’t Hispanic were overcounted by 0.6%. The Black population was undercounted by 3.3%, those who identified as some other race had a 4.3% undercount, almost 5% of the Hispanic population was missed and more than 5.6% of American Indians living on reservations were undercounted.
Civil rights leaders blamed the undercounts on hurdles created by the pandemic and political interference by then-President Donald Trump’s administration, which tried unsuccessfully to add a citizenship question to the census form and cut field operations short.
The census not only is used for determining how many congressional seats each state gets and for redrawing political districts; it helps determine how $1.5 trillion a year in federal funding is allocated. Overcounts, which are revealed through a survey the bureau conducts apart from the census, occur when people are counted twice, such as college students being counted on campus and at their parents’ homes.
In the 2020 census, 19.9 million residents identified as “Asian alone,” a 35% increase from 2010. Another 4.1 million residents identified as Asian in combination with another race group, a 55% jump from 2010. Asians now make up more than 7% of the U.S. population.
Some of the growth by Asians in the 2020 census may be rooted in the fluidity of how some people, particularly those who are biracial or multiracial, report their identity on the census form, said Paul Ong, a professor emeritus of urban planning and Asian American Studies at UCLA.
“People change their identity from one survey to another, and this is much more prevalent among those who are multiracial or biracial,” Ong said.
Lan Hoang, a Vietnamese American woman who works at the same coalition as Chau, listed her three young children as Asian, as well as white and Hispanic to represent her husband’s background. She used the census as an opportunity to talk to them about the importance of identity, even reading them a kids’ book about the head count.
“It talks about how important it is that you let others know that you’re here, this is who you represent,” Hoang said. “When I filled out (the form), they were totally surprised. … ‘Yeah, you’re three different things in one. You’re special.’”
Conversations about declaring one’s Asian background are especially meaningful given the anti-Asian hate brought on by the pandemic, Hoang added. Eight people, including six women of Asian descent, were fatally shot last year at Georgia massage businesses, and thousands more attacks against Asians have happened across the U.S. since 2020.
Such factors may have led some multiracial people who ordinarily would have indicated on the census form that they were white, Black or some other race to instead select Asian, Ong said.
“When that happens, people who are multiracial go in two directions: They reject their minority identity or they embrace it,” Ong said. “With the rise of anti-Asian hostility, it forced some multiracial Asians to select a single identity.”
Another factor that may have contributed to the Asian overcount is the fact that young adult Asians were more likely to be in college than other racial or ethnic groups: 58% compared to 42% or less for young adults of other race or ethnic backgrounds. That may have led them to be counted twice, on campuses and at their parents’ homes, where they went after colleges and universities closed because of the pandemic.
UCLA junior Lauren Chen spent most of her freshman year back home in Mesa, Arizona, in 2020. Her father included Chen on the household census form even though Census Bureau rules said she should have been counted at school. Chen has no idea if she was counted twice.
“UCLA was pretty swamped with trying to figure out how to get people their belongings. … It was a very messy moment and I don’t think I knew anyone that got mail or anything like that,” Chen said. “(The census) is definitely something that I paid attention to, especially with the way that my Dad focused on it.”

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — One man was killed and five people wounded in a shooting that happened early Sunday after a fight broke out during a birthday celebration in Indianapolis, police said.
The shooting was reported about 3:20 a.m. at an event hall on the city’s northwest side. Officers found a man dead inside the building while five wounded people went to hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries, police said.
Indianapolis police Lt. Shane Foley said investigators believe the fight started during a late-night birthday party and were trying to speak with witnesses and gather any video of what happened. No arrests were immediately announced.
Gunshots were fired both inside and outside the building and Foley said a vehicle was struck by gunfire.

Man Suspected of Shooting Lady Gaga’s Dog Walker Accidentally Released From Jail
One of the men charged in the shooting of Lady Gaga’s dog walker has been accidentally released from police custody.
According to a statement from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, suspect James Howard Jackson, was released Wednesday “due to a clerical error.”
“The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) is investigating the inadvertent release from custody of Defendant James Howard Jackson, the department said in a statement to NBC. “Mr. Jackson was in custody for attempted murder in connection with the shooting of Lady Gaga’s dog walker and the theft of two of the singer’s French Bulldogs which occurred on February 25, 2021.”
“Defendant Jackson attended court proceedings at the Clara Shortridge Criminal Justice Center on Tuesday, April 5, 2022, and was released from custody on Wednesday, April 6, 2022, due to a clerical error,” the statement added. “The investigation is continuing and the LASD Major Crimes Bureau is actively working to get Mr. Jackson back in custody.”
In February 2021, Gaga’s dog walker Ryan Fischer was shot while he was with the singer’s French Bulldogs in Los Angeles.
Two of the dogs, named Koji and Gustavo, were subsequently kidnapped, while Gaga’s most famous dog, Miss Asia Kinney, managed to escape.
Gaga later offered $500,000 for the return of her dogs — “no questions asked.”
The pop star ultimately got her dogs back, while five people were arrested in connection with the crime.
“This was a brazen street crime that left a man seriously wounded,” District Attorney George Gascón said at the time. “We have alleged very serious charges in this case and have faith that justice will be appropriately served as this case unfolds in court.”
Fischer, who was critically injured during the attack and suffered a collapsed lung, has since responded to Jackson’s accidental release.
“Lord, grant me the serenity…” he wrote in an Instagram story regarding the news.
“Deep breaths,” he added in another post.

What happened
Shares of oil and natural gas explorer APA Corporation (NASDAQ: APA) rose 16% in March, according to data from S&P Global Market Intelligence.
It's no surprise this oil and natural gas driller went up in March; the price for both commodities skyrocketed in the early part of the month following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Additionally, APA also completed some asset sales, which brought in lots of cash. In a strong oil and gas market, it could be a savvy move in order to pay down debt.
So what
Oil prices spiked during March, after President Biden signed an executive order banning the import of Russian oil, liquified natural gas, and coal on March 8. While the U.S. has lots of its own resources, investors contemplated that more countries might ban the import of Russian resources, which could lead to higher prices. The price of oil spiked from around $100 per barrel at the beginning of the month to nearly $130, before settling back near the $100 mark by month's end.
For APA specifically, management took advantage of the current oil and gas bull market to offload some assets. During March, the company completed the sale of undeveloped land in the Delaware Basin for $805 million, and also sold shares of Kinetik (NASDAQ: KNTK) for another $224 million. Kinetik is a new company that was formed by the combination of Altus Midstream and BCP Raptor Holdco LP in February.
CEO John Christmann said:
Completion of these transactions reflects the ongoing streamlining of our portfolio. We remain committed to returning free cash flow to shareholders and continuing to strengthen the balance sheet. As such, we plan to direct a portion of these sales proceeds toward debt reduction.
The sales will allow APA to pay down debt and also de-consolidate its shares of Altus/Kinetic, which will take Kinetic's debt off its balance sheet. So APA stands to materially lower its debt this year, which stood at $7.2 billion as of Dec. 31.
Now what
At strip prices as of February, Apache forecast just over $2 billion in free cash flow this year. At just a $15 billion market cap, APA trades at less than 7.5 times this year's free cash flow. And keep in mind, oil prices are still a bit higher than they were in February when the company reported, so free cash could be even better than that.
Although APA is still paying down debt, it's also growing shareholder returns. The company hiked its dividend twice last year, and has put forth a new framework whereby APA will return 60% of free cash flow to shareholders in dividends and share repurchases.
That setup looks tantalizing; however, much will depend on oil prices. With the Federal Reserve looking to hike interest rates and slow the economy, and with the U.S. government releasing barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, prices could moderate from here. However, given the lack of supply growth seen over the past decade in the industry, oil prices should still remain at levels where APA and its peers stay solidly profitable.

(NEXSTAR) – There are only a few days left to gather your documents, calm your nerves and hope for a good tax refund – but, if you already know you’re unlikely to make the deadline, here’s how you can get an extension.
The last day to file in 2022 for most people is April 18, but the Internal Revenue Service has a tax deadline extension for those who need a few extra months.
If you’re planning on pushing back your filing date, you can get an automatic six-month extension using the IRS’ Form 4868, just make sure to do it before the April tax deadline to avoid late-filling penalties.
Your new deadline will be Oct. 17, 2022, but the IRS could make an exception and push it back even further for taxpayers living out of the country.
You can get a tax extension, but should you?
Filing for an extension can now easily be done online – you can use IRS Direct Pay; the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System; or pay with a credit, debit card or digital wallet – but there are some things to keep in mind before hitting snooze on your 2021 tax return.
One key consideration is that the extension is for the paperwork, not the payment. You’ll still need to estimate your tax liability and pay by April 18, using the same form.
The IRS reminds taxpayers looking for an extension that they should pay on time, even if they can’t give the full amount to reduce possible penalties.
While the late filing penalty is generally five percent per month, the penalty for late payments is usually .5 percent per month. Interest on the late payments, currently four percent annually, is compounded on a daily basis, according to the IRS. The IRS says it will work with those people unable to make full payments, and most people can set up a payment plan.
Also worth noting, depending on your circumstances you may already be able to file later in the year.
There is an automatic two-month extension for citizens and resident aliens who work and live outside of the U.S. or Puerto Rico. While they have until June 15 to file, they still need to make any tax payments by April 18.
Military members living outside the U.S. and Puerto Rico receive the same filing extension, and those people serving in combat zones have up to 180 days after they leave the combat zone to file returns and pay any taxes due.
Finally, if President Biden were to make a disaster area declaration, the IRS can postpone taxpayer deadlines for residents and businesses.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says that radical Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Pramila Jayapal were vying to be the “queen bee” of the left in Congress, and it almost cost the party their majority in 2020.
The revelation appears in the new book This Will Not Pass by New York Times reporters Jonathan Martin and Alex Burns.
Pelosi is worried that her party’s radical cultural policies will doom Democrats going forward.
She reportedly told one senior lawmaker that Democrats had alienated Asian and Hispanic immigrants with loose talk of socialism and callousness about abortion.
The 82-year-old Italian Catholic speaker said that with immigrant communities, ‘Democrats had not been careful enough about the way they spoke about abortion among new Americans who were devout people of faith,’ according to excerpts obtained by Punchbowl News.
Pelosi’s chief spokesperson Drew Hammill told DailyMail.com of the excerpts: ‘Many books will be written about the challenges of legislating during the pandemic and a period of unprecedented Republican obstruction, and we won’t be commenting on the works that substitute gossip for fact.’
Many Hispanic immigrants have come from failed socialist states in Central and South America. The last thing they want to see is a government going down the exact same path that caused them to leave their homes in the first place.
As for abortion, devout Catholics oppose abortion but rarely make it a defining political issue. That may be changing, as Democrats support more and more radical partial-birth abortion policies and oppose common-sense restrictions.
Related: ‘Squad Politics’ Has Backfired Spectacularly on Democrats
Pelosi also had some choice words about Biden’s HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra.
‘To some Democrats, Becerra was a baffling choice. He was not a public health expert, and he was certain to face a tough confirmation fight if Republicans held the Senate. Among the flummoxed Democrats was perhaps the most significant political partner for the incoming administration: Nancy Pelosi. The Speaker had worked closely with Becerra in the House and saw him as untrustworthy.
A fellow Californian, Becerra represented a Los Angeles district in the House from 1993 to 2017, then served as state attorney general from 2017 to 2021. The entire extent of his public health experience was membership on the Subcommittee on Health under the House Ways and Means Committee.
Members like AOC and Jayapal see Pelosi as an ancient fossil who is only still there because Democrats don’t trust the new radicals with the speaker’s gavel. But eventually, they will ascend to power because the rest of the party fears their popularity with the base.
The book will be in bookstores on May 3.

WASHINGTON – After its striking post-invasion setbacks, Russia has appointed a new Ukraine war commander, a U.S. official said Sunday.
Russia has turned to Gen. Alexander Dvornikov, 60, one of Russia’s most experienced military officers and — according to U.S. officials — a general with a record of brutality against civilians in Syria and other war theaters. The senior official who identified the new commander was not authorized to be identified and spoke on condition of anonymity.
But the White House national security adviser, Jake Sullivan, said “no appointment of any general can erase the fact that Russia has already faced a strategic failure in Ukraine.”
“This general will just be another author of crimes and brutality against Ukrainian civilians,” Sullivan told CNN’s “State of the Union.” “And the United States, as I said before, is determined to do all that we can to support Ukrainians as they resist him and they resist the forces that he commands.”
The decision to establish new battlefield leadership comes as Russia gears up for what is expected to be a large and more focused push to expand Russian control in the Donbas and follows a failed opening bid to conquer Kyiv, the capital.
Dvornikov gained prominence while leading the Russian group of forces in Syria, where Moscow has waged a military campaign since 2015 to shore up President Bashar Assad’s regime during a devastating civil war.
Dvornikov is a career military officer and has steadily risen through the ranks after starting as a platoon commander in 1982. He fought during the second war in Chechnya and took several top positions before being placed in charge of the Russian troops in Syria in 2015.
In 2016, Putin awarded Dvornikov the Hero of Russia medal, one of the country’s highest awards. Dvornikov has served as the commander of the Southern Military District since 2016.
Sullivan described the general as having a record of brutality against civilians in Syria and said “we can expect more of the same in this theater." But he stressed that the U.S. strategy remains the same in providing Ukraine the military and logistical support it needs.

FBI Arrests 2 Men Who Allegedly Fooled Secret Service Agent on Jill Biden's Security Detail
Two men have been arrested for allegedly impersonating federal agents in a scheme that included a plan to buy a weapon for a Secret Service member who was part of first lady Jill Biden’s protective detail.
The FBI arrested two men accused of impersonating Department of Homeland Security agents for longer than two years, according to CNN.
Along the way, according to an affidavit, they gave federal agents gifts and apartments.
Arian Taherzadeh and Haider Ali allegedly provided “rent-free apartments” — estimated to cost more than $40,000 annually each — to a DHS employee and members of the Secret Service during their impersonation, the affidavit said.
Four Secret Service agents have been placed on administrative leave.
The Washington Post reported that the purpose of the scheme was “to get closer to members of federal law enforcement and the defense community.”
The charges were made public as FBI agents and police officers were seen in the Navy Yard area of D.C. on Wednesday night.
FBI agents continue to walk in & out of this apartment bldg on the 900 Bl of 1st St. SE in Navy Yard. People inside say they’ve seen agents on 3 floors in the building. We still don’t know exactly why they are here, but activity here has died down here in the last hour. (@wusa9) pic.twitter.com/Z7iJBW5UTx

🚨 #BREAKING – FBI agents seen at apartment building in Navy Yard DC for a search and seizure operation
According to FBI – 2 suspects, Arian Taherzadeh and Haider Ali are charged with impersonating DHS and other fed agents.
Both claim to have several units in bldg. @wusa9 pic.twitter.com/lkMx2LLjz3
— Lorenzo Hall (@LorenzoHall) April 7, 2022
Court documents said Taherzadeh is accused of giving a Secret Service agent assigned to protect the White House complex a “rent-free penthouse apartment” for one year, a gift worth $40,200.
Taherzadeh also is accused of offering to buy a $2,000 rifle for a Secret Service agent on Jill Biden’s detail, the affidavit said.
“The Secret Service has worked, and continues to work, with its law enforcement partners on this ongoing investigation. All personnel involved in this matter are on administrative leave and are restricted from accessing Secret Service facilities, equipment and systems,” the Secret Service said in a statement.
“The Secret Service adheres to the highest levels of professional standards and conduct and will remain in active coordination with the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security,” it said.
According to the affidavit, other gifts given to federal agents included “iPhones, surveillance systems, a drone, a flat screen television, a case for storing an assault rifle, a generator, and law enforcement paraphernalia.
The agents were told the items were paid for by DHS.
The affidavit claimed Taherzadeh manipulated an individual into doing research on a government contractor for the Department of Defense and intelligence community by claiming it was included in a “recruiting process” for the Homeland Security Investigations branch of DHS.
A witness told investigators there was “a significant amount of law enforcement paraphernalia, including SWAT vests, a large safe, computers, a high-powered telescope and internal surveillance cameras” in Taherzadeh’s apartment.
The ruse began to fall apart when a U.S. postal inspector looked into an assault that took place at an apartment complex where the men had multiple units.
The men claimed they were “special police” officers investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, incursion of the U.S. Capitol, the Post reported.
As the postal inspection continued, the investigator learned of the gifts to the Secret Service, triggering further investigations.

Scheffler chases Masters win, with caddie who knows the way
AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Scottie Scheffler has never been here before. Never gone to any course with the lead on Sunday in a major championship. Been close a few times, but never in the spotlight as the favorite heading into the final round.
It’s daunting, anywhere.
At Augusta National, even more so.
Luckily for him, someone will be with Scheffler every step of the way, someone who has taken a few rides around the pressure cooker that is a final round with a Masters win at stake. He hired Ted Scott, who caddied in both of Bubba Watson’s Masters wins, on a test basis five months ago. It has paid huge and fast dividends, and they’ll try for their fourth win in the span of six starts together on Sunday.
“Teddy’s been a great addition to the team,” Scheffler said. “I have a lot of faith in him. He works really hard. I respect him as a person. When we’re out there I have a lot of faith in him. It’s really nice just having someone I can trust so much out there with me.”
Watson had to rally to win his first Masters in 2012, after starting the final round in fourth. In 2014, he held the lead coming into the final round and held it together on the way to another green jacket. He and Scott were peanut butter-and-jelly level of inseparable for 15 years, before deciding to part ways last season. Scheffler heard Scott was available and gave him a call. Scheffler was hovering around the mid-20s in the world rankings then. He’s No. 1 in the world now and in position to win the Masters.
“It’s going to give him confidence,” Watson said of Scheffler having Scott with him on Sunday. “Knowing that he’s got a guy on the bag that’s won around here, that has notes ... he’s going to have mental notes that he knows (from what) he’s been through with me. So, yeah, it’s going to give him nothing but confidence and joy knowing that he has all the information.”
Cameron Smith is Scheffler’s closest pursuer, starting Sunday three shots back after a 4-under round of 68 in Round 3. At Augusta, three shots is nothing. And Smith has experience in being a chaser, after he and Sungjae Im — who is in third, five shots back — were the ones closest to Dustin Johnson at the end of the pandemic-delayed Masters in November 2020.
Scheffler has won three of his last five starts on the way to the No. 1 ranking. Smith is coming off a win at The Players Championship last month and is No. 6 in the world. It might not have Tiger Woods vs. Phil Mickelson level of pizzazz to it, but a Scheffler-Smith pairing in the final round of a major — given the form both are in right now — is probably pretty close to the best matchup that golf purists could have gotten.
“It just means I can get it done I guess when I’m up against the best guys in the world,” Smith said. “It’s a good feeling to have. It’s earned. It’s not given to you. I’m going to have to go out there (Sunday) and play really good golf again. Hopefully everything just falls into place. I can’t control what anyone else is going to do.”
Most players think that way.
But a good caddie like Scott does have a say in what someone else is going to do — that being the player whose bag he is carrying. He’ll wear the standard-issue Masters white caddie jumpsuit on Sunday while also serving as coach, confidant, psychologist, therapist and whatever else Scheffler needs for those four-plus hours that the final round will take.
“Someone that stays as pretty level-headed as Teddy, he doesn’t really react to much,” Scheffler said. “It’s definitely nice having him out there on the bag.”
Shane Lowry and Charl Schwartzel will start Sunday tied for fourth, seven shots off the pace at 2 under. Justin Thomas and Corey Conners are tied for sixth, both 1 under. Those four players, Scheffler, Smith and Im are the only ones under par going into the final round.
A year ago on Masters Sunday, Hideki Matsuyama’s caddie wound up stealing a bit of the show. Shota Hayafuji was on Matsuyama’s bag for that win, and when he returned the pin to the 18th hole after the final putt of the Masters was made, he removed his cap and bowed to the course. It instantly became a Masters moment.
There’s a caddie who will get to make a Masters moment of his own on Sunday. Scheffler would enjoy nothing more than if Scott is the one on that stage.

BEIJING — Shanghai on Sunday discharged over 11,000 recovered COVID-19 patients and health authorities emphasized that they must be allowed to return home despite the lockdown that has severely restricted movement in China’s largest city.
“We hope their family and community will not worry about them or discriminate against them,” said Wu Jinglei, director of the Shanghai Health Commission.
The city of 26 million people reported 1,006 confirmed infections and nearly 24,000 asymptomatic cases in the last 24 hours. Shanghai has been under lockdown since March 28, and authorities said Saturday that the strict measures would be lifted in areas with no new cases in the last 14 days following another round of mass testing.
The United States on Saturday advised its citizens to reconsider traveling to China due to “arbitrary enforcement” of local laws and COVID-19 restrictions, particularly in Hong Kong, Jilin province and Shanghai. U.S. officials cited a risk of “parents and children being separated.”
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian said in response that China was “strongly dissatisfied with and firmly opposed to the U.S. side’s groundless accusation against China’s epidemic response.”
“It should be pointed out that China’s anti-epidemic policies are science-based and effective, and we are fully confident that Shanghai and other places in China will prevail over the new wave of the epidemic,” said Zhao.
Meanwhile, Shanghai authorities said that they have secured daily supplies for residents from online platforms, according to state-owned newspaper Global Times, following complaints about deliveries of food and other basic necessities as the lockdown enters its third week.
Residents have resorted to group buying of groceries because they are not allowed to leave their buildings. Posts circulating on social media platforms such as Weibo also show that some residents have not been able to have their food orders delivered, while others posted online that they’re running out of food.
Some people said that as soon as you go to the grocery shopping app, a day’s orders are already filled.
According to the Global Times, platforms such as JD.com as well as Alibaba’s Ele.me delivery apps are working with authorities to ensure that everyone has access to vegetables, fruits and other produce.
Shanghai highlights the soaring human and economic cost of China’s “zero-COVID” strategy that aims to isolate every infected person.
Separately, Erjiefang, an area in capital Beijing, was classified as high-risk on Saturday after eight local COVID-19 infections were reported there over the past two weeks.
And in Guangzhou, primary and middle schools will switch to online learning starting Monday after the metropolis of 18 million northwest of Hong Kong registered 23 local infections since Friday, the official Xinhua News Agency reported. An exhibition center was being converted into a makeshift hospital after authorities said earlier they would begin citywide mass testing.
China is facing one of its worst local outbreaks since the pandemic began. China is still closed to international travel, even as most of the world has sought ways to live with the virus.

Scheffler in Masters spotlight as Woods exits centre stage
By Steve Keating
AUGUSTA, Ga., April 10 (Reuters) - World number one Scottie Scheffler takes the spotlight and a three-shot lead into the Masters final round on Sunday as Tiger Woods continues his comeback far away from the leaderboard.
The year's first major looks poised for a Green Jacket showdown between the planet's two hottest golfers in Scheffler, winner of three of his last five PGA Tour starts and Australian Cameron Smith, winner of golf's unofficial fifth major the Players Championship in March.
Scheffler had been poised to run away with the title when he powered to a six-shot lead in Saturday's third round but wobbled to the finish with three bogeys to see his advantage halved setting up what could be an Augusta National thriller.
The final pair of Scheffler and Smith, runner-up to Dustin Johnson at the 2020 Masters, are scheduled off at 240pm ET (1840 GMT).
If anyone else expects to join the fray they will need to mount an early charge.
South Korea's Im Sung-jae will start five off the pace with playing partner Irishman Shane Lowry, the 2019 British Open champion, seven back.
South Africa's Charl Schwartzel, the 2011 Masters champion, is also seven adrift with his partner Justin Thomas eight back.
Until Sunday the Masters spotlight had seldom strayed from Woods, who is playing his first event since a car crash 14 months ago nearly cost him his right leg,
The 46-year-old on Tuesday confirmed he would play the Masters and that he believed he could win a record equalling sixth Green Jacket.
The 15-times major winner's comeback captivated the golfing world as he stayed in contention through the opening two rounds but any hope of victory ended on Saturday with a six-over 78, Woods's worst ever score at Augusta National.
He and his playing partner Jon Rahm were among the early starters on Sunday going off at 1050am ET (1450 GMT) almost four hours before Scheffler and Smith.

Elections Ontario offering more options for voting other than in person on June 2
Other provinces that have held pandemic elections have seen significant increases in demand for voting by mail
Article content
TORONTO — Elections Ontario is encouraging residents to request mail-in ballots or take advantage of extra days of advanced voting this year in the hopes of thinning polling station crowds on the province’s first — and hopefully only — election day amid COVID-19.

Article content
Political parties are currently making pandemic campaign plans and contingency arrangements as the official campaign start nears, but the body that administers Ontario’s elections has had a possible pandemic election in its sights for a long time.
Chief electoral officer Greg Essensa wrote to the chief medical officer of health in the summer of 2020 asking for a task force, and the two offices have been meeting regularly since then, he said. Elections Ontario is taking the advice of the top doctor as well as looking at how other jurisdictions have run elections over the past two years.
When voters show up on June 2, they will see floor signage for physical distancing, Plexiglas screens, hand sanitizer and masks available — face coverings won’t be required of voters or staff but will be supplied for those who want one.

But Essensa is hoping many voters consider avoiding ballot boxes on June 2 altogether.
“I think one of the things that we’re really trying to do this election is really look at flattening the curve of the vote,” he said in an interview.
“Traditionally in Ontario — it has always been this way — probably 85 to 90 per cent of those who vote, vote on election day … we want electors to vote when it’s convenient for them, when the time is right for them, ensuring that they can come and vote in a safe, secure fashion. Really, that’s our ultimate goal.”
This year, there will be 10 days of advanced voting, up from five, Essensa said, and the local returning officer can move the poll location. It could be held for a few days in one community, then a few days in another community in the riding, which will be particularly helpful for rural areas, he said.

As well, Elections Ontario has a new online process to apply for a mail-in ballot. People can sign up from May 4 to May 27 and the local returning officer has to have the ballot by 6 p.m. on election day.
Other provinces that have held pandemic elections have seen significant increases in demand for voting by mail, Essensa said.
Ontario only had about 10,000 people vote by mail in the 2018 election, but this year it will likely be far more. In last year’s federal election, 300,000 of the mail-in ballots came from Ontario, Essensa said.
On the campaign trail, the NDP is still planning to prioritize in-person events for leader Andrea Horwath, but will have a number of public health measures in place, said the party’s executive director.

“(With virtual events) there is something that is lost, that sort of warm, human feeling that you get when you’re in a room with folks,” Lucy Watson said in an interview.
“The virtual events that we’ve done have been hugely successful, tremendous turnout, tremendous energy, and I think folks have still been able to make that connection. But, again, our preference and our priority is certainly to have the leader meet with Ontarians in their communities.”
Planning is still underway, but many events will likely look like a rally Horwath held last Sunday — outdoors with masks required, Watson said. All candidates and any volunteer who will interact with a member of the public are fully vaccinated, she said.
When canvassing, the party is “strongly encouraging” candidates and volunteers to stay masked, Watson said. Recently, one incumbent candidate tested positive for COVID-19 a day after door knocking in her riding. She and others in that situation will adhere to all isolation guidelines, Watson said.

The party also plans to have a COVID compliance staff member as part of the central campaign, she said.
“We believe that it’s our shared responsibility to mitigate risk, and our primary goal is to ensure that activities are safe for the volunteers and the campaigners, the candidates and for the members of the public who are interacting with them,” Watson said.
The Liberals came under fire from some supporters for a recent indoor event at which candidates appeared unmasked, though public health rules were followed. Party spokeswoman Beckie Codd-Downey said for the duration of the campaign they will continue to follow restrictions.
“Our candidates are all vaccinated and future candidates will be as well,” she said in a statement. “(Leader Steven Del Duca) loves to be out on the road connecting with people and we plan to continue as long as it’s safe.”

Becky Smit, the Ontario Greens’ campaign chair, said they will follow the advice of public health experts.
“That includes taking precautions like masking and physical distancing at indoor events, and using outdoor spaces when possible,” she said in a written statement. “We’re running a versatile and flexible campaign and are ready to pivot as needed.”
A statement from the Progressive Conservatives said the party “will continue to follow all public health rules.”
As the campaign approaches, Elections Ontario has launched a new app, which will let voters map their poll locations, see candidate information, options on ways to vote and get notifications when a new candidate is registered. It also provides an electronic version of the voter information card, complete with barcode.

Read on for your full guide of how to watch a Man City vs Liverpool live stream and get the Premier League online from anywhere.

- As a part of that, you can also switch your IP address, which identifies your location.
- Most VPNs offer a list of locations where its servers are based to join. Connecting to them switches your IP to appear as if you're browsing from that country/city. In turn, you can then access content locked to that country.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) — Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan’s veto of a measure to expand access to abortion in the state was overridden on Saturday by the General Assembly, which is controlled by Democrats.
The state will end a restriction that only physicians can provide abortions. The new law will enable nurse practitioners, nurse midwives and physician assistants to provide them with training. It creates an abortion care training program and requires $3.5 million in state funding annually. It also requires most insurance plans to cover abortions without cost.
Del. Emily Shetty said she was supporting the measure on the House floor as a mother who had experienced a high-risk pregnancy. She also described being a sexual assault survivor in college and the difficulties she experienced “with the weight of what had happened after that incident.”
“And thankfully, the incident did not result in pregnancy but had it, it would have drastically changed my life if I had not been able to access the care that I needed at that time,” Shetty, a Democrat, said.
Hogan, a Republican, wrote in his veto letter that the legislation “endangers the health and lives of women by allowing non-physicians to perform abortions.”
The measure comes at a time when the conservative majority on the U.S. Supreme Court is weighing whether tooverturn Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 ruling that banned states from outlawing abortion.
If they do, at least 26 states are likely to either ban abortion outright or severely limit access, according to the Guttmacher Institute, a research and policy organization that supports abortion rights.
“In this context, it’s very important that we keep in mind that the strategies that this bill is using is ensuring that people can access the care that they need, when they need it, no matter what happens with the rest of the country — no matter what happens with the Supreme Court,” said Del. Ariana Kelly, a Democrat who was the lead sponsor of the bill, said.
Republican lawmakers criticized the provision allocating $3.5 million of taxpayer money annually to pay for the training. Del. Haven Shoemaker, the House minority whip, described the bill as “the most radical expansion of abortion in Maryland’s history in a state that already has some of the most liberal abortion laws in the country.”
“Madam speaker, this bill is too extreme, even for Maryland,” Shoemaker, a Republican, said, referring to House Speaker Adrienne Jones, a Democrat.
Kelly said the measure is modernizing the choice the state’s voters made in 1992, when they approved the right to abortion in a statewide vote with 62% of voters supporting it.
“It is making sure that people have access to care, particularly people of color, particularly low-income people, particularly rural people,” Kelly said. “We know that physician-only restrictions exacerbate health inequalities, and we are trying to reduce health inequalities in the state of Maryland with this bill.”
The measure takes effect July 1. The insurance provisions apply to all policies, contracts, and health benefit plans issued, delivered, or renewed in the state on or after Jan. 1.

Ahead of his declaration for presidency in 2023, which is likely expected this week, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo will meet with the 22 governors of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) under the aegis of Progressive Governors’ Forum (PGF) in Abuja today.
The meeting, it was learnt, is part of his consultations with critical stakeholders ahead of his declaration to contest for the 2023 presidential election on the platform of the ruling APC, which he is expected to announce this week.
This is coming as the Minister of Transportation, Mr. Chibuike Amaechi, yesterday declared his ambition to contest the 2023 presidential election on the platform of the APC.
Presidency sources said that Osinbajo’s meeting with the APC governors would hold at the Akinola Aguda official residence of the Vice President located within the precincts of the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
The meeting billed for 7p.m. will also serve as fast breaking for the governors as adherents of Christianity and Islam, the two major religions, are currently observing fasting as prescribed in the Holy Books.
It was learnt that the vice president would use the forum to intimate the APC governors led by Governor Abubakar Bagudu of Kebbi State of his intention to contest for the APC’s presidential ticket in the forthcoming presidential primaries of the party.
According to the sources, the meeting with the governors is a continuation of series of consultations being held by Osinbajo with critical stakeholders in the ruling party about his desire to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in May 2023.
The presidency sources also said that all is set for the vice president to publicly declare his intention to contest for the APC ticket this week.
It was gathered that the ceremony will take place in Abuja with governors, federal and state legislators, ministers and other APC top shots already invited for the grand ceremony which may take place either on Monday or Tuesday.

UDF to form 'human chain protest' on August 15 against Kerala's SilverLine project
UDF convenor MM Hassan said that the human chain will pass through areas where SilverLine-related land acquisition is planned and will ensure the involvement of all people.
Published: 10th April 2022 03:25 AM | Last Updated: 10th April 2022 03:25 AM | A+A A-
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: As part of stepping up its agitation against the SilverLine semi high-speed rail project, the UDF will organise a 'human chain protest' from Thiruvananthapuram to Kasaragod on Independence Day (August 15). A decision to this effect was taken at a meeting of the UDF high-powered committee here on Friday.
Briefing reporters after the meeting, UDF convenor MM Hassan said that the human chain will pass through areas where SilverLine-related land acquisition is planned and will ensure the involvement of all people who would be displaced by the project.
Ahead of the human chain protest, vehicle campaign rallies will be held in four regions of the state. The rallies will be held from May 13 to 16. Each rally will cover as many as 16 centres under the respective region. "The rallies have been organised to create awareness among people about the social, environmental and economic impact that the SilverLine project would have," Hassan said.
Of the 100 'jana sadas' programmes planned by the UDF as part of its anti-SilverLine campaign, 32 have been completed. The remaining will be completed in May, Hassan said. The UDF convener termed as "arrogance" Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan's stance that the government will go ahead with the project irrespective of the outcome of the ongoing social impact assessment.
The UDF will observe the second Pinarayi Vijayan government’s first anniversary on May 20 as 'destructive development' anniversary, Hassan said. The UDF will organise satyagraha in all panchayats from 4 pm to 6 pm. "The programme will highlight the harmful effects of the SilverLine project, price rise, deteriorating law and order and rampant use of narcotic substances," he said.
The UDF convener said a total of Rs 100 crore is expected to be splurged by the LDF government to mark its first anniversary. He wondered what pro-people programmes the government had implemented to justify such an extravagance.

ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Wearing the names of heavily bombarded cities on its jerseys, Ukrainian soccer club Shakhtar Donetsk opened a series of charity games on a government-backed “Global Tour for Peace” with a 1-0 loss at Greek league leader Olympiakos on Saturday.
The tour aims to raise money for Ukraine’s military in the war against Russia, and also help Ukrainian refugees displaced by the war.
Shakhtar is also set to play Fenerbahce, Hajduk Split and Lechia Gdansk, with other opponents still to be confirmed. Soccer clubs around Europe have been offering to play games against Ukrainian clubs and host youth players after soccer in the country was shut down when Russia invaded in February.
Shakhtar was already displaced from its original home of Donetsk in 2014.
At Karaiskaki stadium in Piraeus on Saturday, Shakhtar players replaced their names on the back of their jerseys with those of cities bombarded by Russian forces, including Mariupol.
“The names of those cities, where so many people died, will remain forever in our hearts. The guys were crying in the locker room after the game,” Shakhtar captain Taras Stepanenko said. “We thank Olympiakos for giving us the opportunity to play the game … We hope we passed our message against war and for peace.”
Olympiakos coach Pedro Martins said he hoped Ukrainian teams “will soon return to European competitions and Ukrainians (will return) to normality.”
Shakhtar’s Italian coach, Roberto De Zerbi, did not attend because he felt unwell a couple of hours before the game and doctors recommended that he stay at the hotel. He hopes to coach in the next game, against Polish team Lechia Gdansk, on Thursday.
Shakhtar, which had been playing in Lviv and Kharkiv before the war, had not played a game since December, and Stepanenko said his team did well given the lack of preparation. Players trained in Turkey before flying to Greece. All the team’s foreign players have been released and replaced by players from the youth academy, Stepanenko said.
Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias and the Ukrainian ambassador to Greece, Sergii Shutenko, attended the game.
The 32,000-seat stadium appeared to be not more than a quarter full. A lively contingent of Ukrainians occupied one end of the stadium. The opposite end, where Olympiakos hardcore fans normally sit, was empty. Their official fan club, called Gate 7, boycotted the game.
In a statement, Gate 7 said it “refused to take sides” and “play political games.”
A small section of seats was filled with 176 teddy bears and other children’s toys in memory of the 176 children who, Ukraine said Saturday, have died in the war since Russia’s Feb. 24 invasion
After a minute’s silence for the victims of war, the match began and the warm camaraderie lasted about five minutes before home fans started to treat it as a normal game of soccer and jeered their opponents.
Brazilian forward Tiquinho got the only goal with a header in the 22nd minute in a game where the score never really mattered.

NEW DELHI: The Enforcement of Directorate (ED) has approached the Supreme Court seeking cancellation of bail granted to Bineesh Kodiyeri, son of former Kerala State Secretary CPI(M) Kodiyeri Balakrishnan, by the Karnataka High Court in a narco-money laundering case. He was in jail for a year and had got conditional bail by Karnataka High Court in October 2021.
The ED had arrested Bineesh on October 29, 2020, under the PMLA, after his name surfaced during the interrogation of drug accused Mohammed Anoop, who was himself arrested in August the same year by the NCB under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, 1985.
The ED had on December 26, 2020, filed the prosecution complaint against Bineesh and his associates, Anoop and Rijesh Ravindran, under the PMLA before the designated court.
The ED in its plea said economic offences involve a huge loss of public funds and the general principles of bail cannot apply in the case. ENS

MARTINSVILLE, Va. — William Byron knew he was in for a big challenge with a two-lap overtime sprint about to start and the very aggressive Joey Logano right behind him.
He also felt like he had a pretty remarkable co-pilot in his corner.
"This one is for my mom," Byron said. "This same weekend last year she had kind of a mini-stroke and was diagnosed with brain cancer. It means a lot to have her here and it's been a crazy year. But she's doing great. I kind of felt like she was riding in there with me."
Byron took the lead on pit road after Stage 2 stops and held it pretty much the rest of the way at Martinsville Speedway — he led 212 laps — to become the first repeat winner this season in NASCAR's Cup Series on Saturday night.
Byron needed to hold off a challenge — and a nudge — from Logano on a two-lap overtime sprint to finish it, but won for the fourth time in his career and gave Hendrick Motorsports four victories in eight races this season.
When the final caution, and only the second for an on-track issue of the night, came with five laps to go, Byron and the seven drivers behind him opted to stay out for the final dash.
"I thought everyone behind us would pit, and luckily we stayed out," he said. "We were aggressive; we felt like we could refire on the tires and be OK, and you've got one of the most aggressive guys behind you in Logano."
Byron had both a fast car that allowed him to pull away on restarts and a strong one on long runs, critical since there wasn't a caution for anything but the end of a stage until the 311th of 400 laps on the 0.526-mile oval.
That changed when Todd Gilliland had a flat tire and hit the wall with five laps to go. Byron and the top eight cars on the track opted not to pit, with Byron picking the inside lane and Austin Dillon, running second, on the outside.
That gave Logano a prime opportunity to bump the leader out of the way, especially when Dillon spun his tires on the restart. Logano bumped Byron in Turn 2 on the last lap, but Byron held on for his second win of the weekend. He won in the Truck Series on Thursday night, earning him a pair of the raceway's unique grandfather clock trophies for three days of solid racing.
"Willy kind of messed up off of 4 and let me get to him, and he did a really good job of brake checking into third, right, which is a good job," Logano said. "He did what he was supposed to do, and kind of got me all stuffed up behind him and I couldn't accelerate off the corner and be as close as I needed to be."
Logano was second, followed by Dillon, Ryan Blaney and Ross Chastain.
Dillon appeared to have a car likely to challenge on a long green-flag run, and beat Logano for second on a restart with 80 laps to go, but after Byron pulled away, lapped traffic and consistency helped him build a nearly three-second lead.
The start of the race was delayed by more than an hour when rain and sleet fell on an already frigid night. It got underway with radar suggesting more precipitation was coming, perhaps even some snow, but none materialized.
It all conspired to provide a clean track, and a virtual single-file parade.
Pole-sitter Chase Elliott led the first 185 laps, winning the first and second stages for the fifth time in his career, but lost the lead in the caution stops that followed Stage 2 and had trouble as the night went on. He finished 10th.
QUIRKY
Elliott's 185 laps led to begin the race matched what Darrell Waltrip did at the start of the 1980 race at Martinsville. Waltrip, though, went on to win.
JGR STRUGGLES
Coming off a victory at Richmond Raceway and to another short track where he leads all active drivers with five wins, any hope Denny Hamlin brought to Martinsville was taken away bit by bit. He qualified 25th, was lapped by Elliott at the end of Stage 1 and made laps in the back of the field and finished 28th.
The rest of the Joe Gibbs Racing stable didn't fare much better, though Kyle Busch rallied for seventh. Martin Truex Jr., who'd won three of the last five races here, finished 22nd and Christopher Bell was 20th.
UP NEXT
The top series moves to its third straight short track, this time on the dirt at Bristol Motor Speedway next Sunday.

TOWSON, Maryland — Father Jeffrey Dauses thought for sure someone had shot at his car.
Driving along Putty Hill Avenue in the Baltimore suburb of Towson Feb. 17 on a shopping run, the pastor of Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish in Baynesville heard a loud crash and saw pieces of a side-view mirror fly up onto his windshield and then off his Honda CR-V.
“It felt like a meteorite had fallen on my car,” Dauses remembered. “It scared me to death and I almost went into the other lane.”
The object that hit the priest’s car wasn’t from the barrel of a gun or from another world. It had been launched from the baseball stadium at nearby Calvert Hall College High School.
Troy Stokes Jr., a 2014 alumnus of the Catholic college prep school and a major league baseball player who made his big-league debut last year with the Pittsburgh Pirates, hit the ball during batting practice with members of the high school team.
The Owings Mills resident, a former four-year starter and a star outfielder with Calvert Hall, occasionally visits the current high school team to share his experience of the big leagues, answer questions and offer tips.
“It was the last ball I hit — and I hit it pretty good,” said Stokes, who was drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers in the fourth round in 2014 and is now a free agent. “I hit it just right to left field, over the net.”
Stokes, who attended Cardinal Shehan School in Baltimore and sometimes worshipped at New All Saints in the city’s Liberty Heights neighborhood with his grandmother when he was a child, estimates that the spheroid flew about 400 feet. The longest ball he ever hit was in the minor leagues when he belted one an estimated 480 feet.
Dauses said he realized what had happened to his car after pulling over and seeing a baseball rolling along the side of the road. He was in touch with Calvert Hall, whose leaders arranged for Stokes to sign a ball for the priest. The souvenir was presented to Dauses March 14.
“Sorry for hitting your mirror!!” Stokes printed in blue ink on the ball.
Dauses told the Catholic Review, Baltimore’s archdiocesan news outlet, that damage to his mirror turned out to be relatively minor and cost only $35 to repair.
He was happy to receive the autographed ball, which now rests in a coffee mug on his desk. He noted that more than half the boys in his parish elementary school’s eighth-grade class have been accepted to Calvert Hall.
“My car got hit on the day that Calvert Hall was sending out the acceptance letters to all those eighth graders,” Father Dauses said with a laugh. “On the very day they’re getting their letters, I get a baseball that smashes into my mirror. It was just kind of funny.”
Stokes said he is grateful for his years playing for Calvert Hall. He said the school has the best baseball program in Maryland. He still relies on lessons taught to him by his high school coaches.
“They got me the exposure that I needed,” he said.
Dauses, who played in the Shrine of the Little Flower’s junior athletic association’s baseball league during his own grade school years, considers himself “pretty much the worst player ever.”
“I played in the outfield so far out that not even Troy Stokes could possibly have hit a ball to me,” he said.

The 2022 season could not have gotten off to a better start for the New York Mets. New York has cruised to three consecutive victories over the Washington Nationals to open its 2022 campaign and it is looking to close out a four-game sweep of its division rival on Sunday. Let’s break down the odds for this series finale.
New players can click here to sign up with this FanDuel Sportsbook promo code and lock in this $1000 risk free bet bonus.
New York Mets vs. Washington Nationals odds
The Mets are listed as -140 favorites at FanDuel Sportsbook, which means if you want to bet on them to win straight up you would need to wager $140 to make a $100 profit. The Nationals have been given odds of +125, which means a $100 bet on them would bring a profit of $125 if they are successful. The total is set at 9.5 runs, meaning bettors can choose to take the teams to combine to score under or over that figure at approximately -110 odds on each side.
New York Mets vs. Washington Nationals prediction: Mets ML (-140)
The Mets are favored in this contest, and for good reason. In each of the first three games New York clearly looked like the better team at the plate and on the mound. Things may not improve for the Nationals in the final game of the series, as Erick Fedde will get the start for them on Sunday. The Mets have had great success against Fedde, scoring a combined 13 runs against the right-hander in his last two head-to-head outings. Those efforts were against a Mets lineup that was considerably less healthy compared to how this season has started. Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso have gotten off to significantly better starts than they did last April, while Starling Marte has started his tenure as a Met with three RBIs in the second game of this series.
The Nationals’ lineup won’t have to face the top flight of the Mets rotation on Sunday, but the supporting cast around Juan Soto and Nelson Cruz will need to dramatically improve to keep pace with New York. The Nationals infamously parted ways with Trae Turner at last season’s trade deadline and they clearly miss his bat at the top of the lineup and his glove in the infield. Washington needs production from Maikel Franco at third base and Alcides Escobar at shortstop to bolster the obvious holes in the lineup, but neither has delivered to this point. The NL East features the defending World Series champion Braves, but the Mets have also looked the part of pennant contenders thus far. Look for New York to complete the sweep and continue its hot start.
This DraftKings promo code celebrates the start of the MLB season giving new bettors the chance to bet any team, to win any game with a massive boost. This almost zero-risk play returns a great value, helping players open of the season with a big win.
New York Mets vs. Washington Nationals prediction: Over 9.5 (+100)
As this series has progressed, the quality of pitching has declined. That will likely carry over on Sunday, as both starting pitchers struggled mightily a season ago. With Fedde’s 5.47 ERA and Carlos Carrasco’s 6.04 ERA from 2021, this game has the feel of an over. Based on previous outings against Fedde last season, the Mets’ lineup should be comfortable facing the right-hander. Carrasaco was ineffective in his lone appearance against the Nationals in 2021, only lasting an inning and allowing four earned runs to a struggling Mets lineup. While Washington’s lineup has clearly taken a hit this season, the Mets should have more than enough offensive firepower to make up the difference and send this game over the total.

In the new movie Everything Everywhere All at Once from directing duo The Daniels (that's Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert), laundromat owner Evelyn Wang is bad at everything.
Her business is failing, her relationships with her husband and daughter are falling apart. As actress Michelle Yeoh puts it, Evelyn is "a jack-of-not-even-all-trades. She's a jack of nothing and master of nothing."
As if that weren't enough, she's also being audited by the IRS.
"It's probably easier to say what is going right in her life, the minute that you meet Evelyn Wang," Yeoh says.
She is not a stereotypical superhero — and that's exactly what makes Evelyn so compelling for Yeoh.
"I felt that this was such a perfect opportunity to give a voice to the very ordinary mothers and housewife who are out there, you know, doing the most mundane things and get so taken for granted," Yeoh says. "And then let her discover that, oh my God, she is a superhero."
Yeoh says finding the value in the ordinary — and the bizarre — is a superpower in itself.
"Whether you have hot dog fingers, whether you're a rock, what you have evolved to. I think the core spirit, the core emotion is very, very real in whatever universe you are in," Yeoh says.
In our universe, Yeoh has had her own string of different life paths. She was a ballerina and a pageant queen before an injury led her to become the leading lady of Hong Kong's action movies in the 1990s.
Now, 30 years later, Yeoh is finally getting her turn at a leading role in a Hollywood movie.
This interview with Michelle Yeoh has been edited for length and clarity.
Interview Highlights
On doing physical comedy for the first time
I think I had it easy in the past where I just look cool, you know? I know exactly what I'm doing, that kind of thing. Oh my God, martial arts is simple. It's easy compared to physical comedy. Physical comedy is like timing, it's precision, it's so many things coming together at the right time. Maybe that's one of the reasons why I never did it before because it was so hard.
I think it was so challenging that I really, really enjoyed it very much because you had to literally fracture your mind into knowing the moves and doing them like you're a master, but your face is completely registering shock and then wonder and like, "Oh my god, how the hell am I doing this?" like all at the same time.
On Asian representation in Hollywood
I think the tide has turned, but we also need to be responsible, good storytellers and seize the opportunities that are presented now for women, for diversity. But don't let it just be lip service, it has to mean something. So this movie in particular, it's about an Asian immigrant woman, an aging Asian immigrant woman. When was the last time you saw that, right?
But it took us a long time. I think in the older days, you know how Asians put their heads down and say, "OK, let's just get on with it. Let's work hard. And our hard work will pay off." Sorry. You know, sometimes you have to rock the boat. We just have to rock the boat and say, "Look at us, give us a chance." Because guess what? We exist in your society. We are part of the society and very, very much an intricate part of this whole community. This is the only way we will get more opportunities, if we fight for it and no longer be able to say, OK, I'll turn the other cheek. Dang! No more turning the other cheek.
On whether she asks herself 'What if?'
Of course there are things in life I wish I did, which would have made me smarter, healthier, wiser when I was younger. But do I sit there and go, I wish I took another path? Because then I wouldn't have all the amazing things I have today and the career that I've forged over the last 30-something years. So I don't really spend time doing that. But I think in Everything Everywhere All at Once, it does make you ponder because what it tells you here is like every choice that you make splinters into a full blown universe of its own with a real life.
I think you have to be present. This life is yours. But if you're not present, it's wasted. Time waits for no one. When we're born, we age and then we die, and God forbid, we die before we have lived our lives. So we have to be present in whatever universe, in whatever life, because if you give up on being present, then you give up on your life.

Camper comes unhooked from pickup, starting grass fire on north side of Watertown
A camper coming unhooked from a pickup hitch caused a grass fire in Watertown Saturday, according to a news release from Watertown Fire Rescue.
The department was called to the intersection of 14th Avenue Northwest and Seventh Street Northwest at 1:10 p.m. and found a fast-moving grass fire on the north side of 14th Avenue. Flames were moving toward a farm and residence, per the release, but crews were able to contain them in about 20 minutes. There was no structural damage, but about 2.5 acres burned.
After the camper came unhooked, it continued down the street, causing sparks that ignited the fire, according to the release.
The Watertown Police Department assisted on the call, and 14th Avenue was closed during the fire. Crews were on the scene for about 40 minutes.

'60s Teen Pop Singer, 'Bye Bye Birdie' Star Dead at 79
Former 1960s teen idol Bobby Rydell died of pneumonia complications unrelated to COVID-19 at 79, according to a statement made on Tuesday by Rydell’s marketing and event coordinator, Maria Novey.
Rydell’s career spanned more than six decades. The talented singer released his first hit single, “Kissin’ Time” in 1959. It was this song that launched him into stardom.
He made his film debut in 1963 as the star of “Bye Bye Birdie” and would later become the high school namesake in the 1978 musical “Grease,” starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John.
Rydell passed away in Abington Jefferson Hospital in Abington, Pa., according to the statement.
Friends and colleagues of Rydell took to Twitter to remember the legendary entertainer.
“Bobby Rydell passed on. What a shame! He was the most talented of the 50s and early 60s teen idols. Well…maybe a tie with Bobby Darin,” said King.

Jeanine Pirro, judge and co-host of Fox News show “The Five,” tweeted along with a picture of her and Rydell “With Bobby Rydell in March of 2017- a music icon and teen heartthrob and a great American.”
“May he continue to serenade beyond the pearly gates. RIP,” she added.

“I am absolutely heartbroken at the loss of my dear Pallie Bobby Rydell. He was an incredible entertainer and absolutely one of the funniest people I’ve ever known.” Deana Martin, American performer and daughter of Dean Martin, said.
“Rest well Bobby. We love you, Deana Martin,” she added.

In 1985, Rydell joined Frankie Avalon and Fabian to form The Golden Boys. The popular trio performed for several decades.
His accomplishments have inspired several adaptations, including an Oscar winner in 2018. Actor Von Lewis portrayed Rydell’s iconic performance at NYC’s Copacabana nightclub in the 91st Academy Award-winning film, “Green Book.”
Rydell is survived by his wife, two children and five grandchildren.
Rydell credited his long life to a liver and kidney donation made to him in 2012. He advocated for The Gift of Life, a non-profit organization whose goal is to help families recover from organ transplants.
His family intends to keep his mission alive by asking those who are able to become organ donors to do so and to also consider donating to The Gift of Life.

I wasn’t sure that I’d ever be able to walk again after breaking back in three places, reveals Simon Cowell
FOR the past 20 years, he’s been one of the most recognisable men in showbiz — and following a horrific near-fatal E-bike crash he is more thankful than ever to be alive.
With his trademark haircut, signature T-shirt and boot-cut Levis, Simon Cowell has remained steadfastly unchanged — thanks, in part, to industrial strength Botox.
But now, at 62 and looking slim, the music mogul has moved away from the fillers as he adjusts to a new chapter in his life.
He also confides that he considered therapy when depression hit as he began his recovery from the accident in August 2020 and feared he may never walk again.
Yet all is well with soon-to-wed Simon as he ponders his Britain’s Got Talent return, The X Factor, and his changed attitude to the treatment that made him look “like something out a horror film”.
He says: “There was a stage where I might have gone a bit too far. I saw a picture of me from ‘before’ the other day, and didn’t recognise it as me first of all.
“Eric (his son) was in hysterics. Enough was enough. There is no filler in my face at all now. Zero.
“There was a phase where everyone was having their faces pumped full of this and the other.
“But actually, for me now, a lot of it comes down to healthy eating and drinking tonnes of water."
Now slimmer than ever after losing three stone, Simon looks better than he has in years.
Part of that is surely down to contentment in his private life — he is marrying his girlfriend of 10 years, Lauren Silverman, later this year, and adores his son.
He has also cut his workload, although will return later this month on Britain’s Got Talent.
Most read in The Irish Sun
But earlier this year The Sun revealed ITV and Simon had axed The X Factor after 17 years.
The show, which gave us Leona Lewis, One Direction, Little Mix, Olly Murs and Alexandra Burke, had seen ratings fall and format was looking increasingly tired.
However, with ITV still unable to find a replacement Saturday night show capable of pulling in five million viewers plus, there’s a chance the series could still return.
So what would he do differently this time around?
The salaries became out of whack. We made a lot of money but it got too crazy.
Simon Cowell on X Factor
He says: “It’s a tricky one but there are hundreds of people who still want to be pop stars. We’d have to go back to basics.
“The other thing we did with the show was to keep tinkering with it, adding new formats.
“When we first started the show it was very simple with unique elements. I’d argue you can’t make a better music show than that.
“I have an expression though — if you’re going to go to a party, have an invitation. You want to feel people are excited at the thought of The X Factor returning.
“I’d have to believe that we’d have great people turning up. If you don’t, you’ve got a problem.
“The mentoring aspect didn’t really happen in the way I’d have liked. And they should be allowed to perform their own material. I’d also probably bring in about ten young kids who want to get into the music business, and ask them to shadow us for the season.
“The one thing I promised myself going forward is that I want to be more of a mentor.
“The only good thing of getting older is you have a lot of experience and it’s not always about the things you did well — it’s also about the things you didn’t.”
Refreshingly, Simon admits he also blundered with the salaries the judges were paid.
Stars such as Cheryl Tweedy, Robbie and Ayda Williams and Dannii Minogue got small fortunes which, he admits, wouldn’t sit well in today’s credit-crunched world.
He said: “The salaries got out of whack. I’d be a hypocrite if I said I hadn’t made a lot of money.
“But it got too crazy. And, going back to The X factor, I’m not even sure artists should be judging other artists. I think it’s in their DNA to want to find a star.”
Simon says he would also be happy to ditch the traditional girls and boys categories, and have non-binary ones. He may also bin the over 25 category so as not to be “age discriminatory”.
Simon, who cites Oprah Winfrey as the greatest influence in his life, also talks freely about his life after his E-bike horror. He has a steel rod in his back as a consequence.
Eric was filming him when he toppled off the two-wheeler and the pair were clearly traumatised.
Simon, who first became a household name in 2001 as a judge on Pop Idol, admits sinking into slight depression during his recovery at home in Malibu, Florida, when he was bed-bound for a month.
“I considered therapy for the first time when I broke my back because I was very, very, very, low,” he says, drawing on one of his menthol cigarettes.
“I felt very depressed because I didn’t know how to explain it to Eric.
“I couldn’t do all the things I wanted to with him. I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to walk again, to ever play football with him.
“That was a low point. I was on a lot of painkillers but I got off them really quickly. I didn’t want to go down that road.
“But in the end, I decided against therapy as I had great doctors, Lauren was amazing, and Eric was incredible.
“I’m still wearing a back brace which I have to wear when I go out on my bike, and there are pretty big screws in my back, and that’s for life.
“But I’m here, I’m alive. And I’m grateful.”
Simon now boasts a collection of 15 E-bikes, ranging in price from £5-£20,000.
While Simon almost cancelled himself on his bike, what does he make of actual cancel culture?
He replies: “The music business is a brutal. I’d say to most people ‘Don’t go into it because. The chances of being disappointed are ginormous’.
“Whether you agree or disagree, you’ve got to have people in life with opinions, it’s that simple.
“Look at Piers (Morgan) — he’s got an opinion, and I love that. We get a report written every time the show goes out and I encourage the writer to put all the negative stuff up as well as the positive.
“I think people have to learn how to have a sense of humour because whatever business you’re going into you’ll meet unpleasant people. You’ve just got to deal with that.”
- Britain’s Got Talent returns on ITV1 on April 16.

Former president Donald Trump has endorsed fellow TV personality-turned-politician Dr. Mehmet Oz for the U.S. Senate ahead of the Republican primary in Pennsylvania.
"This is all about winning elections in order to stop the Radical Left maniacs from destroying our Country," Trump said in a statement promoting the celebrity heart surgeon-turned-politician this weekend. "I have known Dr. Oz for many years, as have many others, even if only through his very successful television show. He has lived with us through the screen and has always been popular, respected, and smart."
The former president also praised Dr. Oz's medical and academic credentials, adding, "He even said that I was in extraordinary health, which made me like him even more (although he also said I should lose a couple of pounds!)."
The endorsement comes as Republican candidates vie for Trump's support in the key battleground state and in other primaries across the country.
Earlier, Trump had endorsed Sean Parnell, an Army veteran who dropped out of the race after allegations of physical abuse against his wife and children emerged. Parnell has denied those accusations.

PARIS (AP) — Kevin Volland scored the winning goal for Monaco a minute after coming off the bench as his team edged Troyes 2-1 in the French league and moved within a point of fourth place and the Europa League spot on Sunday.
The Germany international fired into the roof of the net in the 57th. Monaco left back Caio Henrique opened the scoring with a free kick in the 19th before Troyes striker Ike Ugbo leveled with a curling shot from the edge of the box in the 39th.
Monaco won a third straight game to consolidate sixth place while Troyes remained five points above the relegation zone.
Lille drew 1-1 with Angers to lose ground in the race for European spots, trailing Monaco by two points. Angers took the lead with an own-goal from Lille defender Tiago Djalo in the 65th. But Kosovo winger Edon Zhegrova equalized with a long-range strike into the top corner in the 74th.
In the Brittany derby, Brest captain Brendan Chardonnet salvaged a 1-1 draw with Nantes by converting a rebound from a corner in the 67th. Randal Kolo Muani raised his tally to 12 league goals with a first-time effort to put Nantes ahead in the 11th. The game was suspended twice because supporters threw flares onto the field in the first half and the field was then invaded by supporters in the second half.
Bordeaux snapped a four-game goal drought to beat Metz 3-1 and move within two points of safety and a point off the relegation playoff spot.
Metz forward Didier Lamkel Ze nodded a cross from Nicolas de Preville into the bottom corner in the 21st.
Bordeaux supporters booed their players at halftime and the hosts reacted by equalizing in the 52nd with a deflected shot from Portuguese wingback Ricardo Mangas.
Senegal international M’Baye Niang gave Bordeaux the lead by pouncing on a pass from Gideon Mensah to stab home in the 68th.
South Korea striker Hwang Ui-jo notched his 11th league goal to seal the win by heading home a corner in the 88th.
It was a third straight loss for Metz, which dropped to last place.
The 31st round ends later Sunday with Marseille vs. Montpellier, Lens vs. Nice, and Strasbourg vs. Lyon.
On Saturday, Paris Saint-Germain thrashed Clermont 6-1 to extend its lead atop the league to 15 points while Rennes climbed to second place by edging Reims 3-2.
