The Japanese government said on Friday it would hold a state funeral for former prime minister Shinzo Abe on September 27, amid street and social media protests that the state shouldn’t fund ceremonies for the country’s longest-serving, but divisive, premier. Abe, prime minister for more than eight years over two terms and hugely influential in the ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) even after leaving office, was gunned down two weeks ago at a campaign rally, an incident that deeply shocked Japan. His funeral was held soon after, but the cabinet decided on Friday that a state funeral will be held on September 27 at the Nippon Budokan in central Tokyo. “We made this decision, as has been said before, due to Abe’s record as the longest-serving prime minister, during which he exerted leadership skills distinctive from others and bore heavy responsibility for dealing with a number of serious domestic and international issues,” chief cabinet secretary Hirokazu Matsuno told a news conference on Friday. ‘Everyone was startled’: the security lapses that cost Shinzo Abe his life The funeral will be fully paid for by state funds likely to be taken from the budget reserve, Matsuno said. Foreign dignitaries will be invited to the funeral, Matsuno said, though further details, including the estimated cost and number of attendees, are yet to be determined. The last state funeral for an ex-prime minister paid for fully by state funds was in 1967, with successive funerals paid for partly by the state and partly by the LDP. The current plan has triggered growing disquiet. Around 200 people gathered near the prime minister’s office in Tokyo to protest the decision, according to the Kyodo news agency, and on social media objections ranged from the use of taxpayer funds, to complaints the government may seek to make political capital of Abe’s death and cement his legacy. On Thursday, 50 people filed for an injunction in a Tokyo court seeking a halt to the use of public funds for the event, saying there should have been more discussion before making a decision. Only 49 per cent supported the idea of a state funeral in a recent public opinion poll by public broadcaster NHK, and the topic was trending on social media on Friday. Shinzo Abe: the force behind Japan’s policies on China, defence, economy On Twitter, a user with the handle “Yuki no Imogai” posted, “(Prime Minister Fumio) Kishida always bragged he listens to the people, so why isn’t he doing it now?” Others contrasted the plan with the government response to the Covid-19 pandemic, with new cases surging to record levels in Japan this week. “Given they’re doing next to nothing about the pandemic, how did they manage to decide this so quickly?” posted Twitter user “Heron”. “Take the money you’ll use for the funeral and do something about the coronavirus.” | https://www.scmp.com/news/asia/east-asia/article/3186188/taxpayer-funded-state-funeral-japans-shinzo-abe-triggers?utm_source=rss_feed | 2022-07-22T05:46:19Z | https://www.scmp.com/news/asia/east-asia/article/3186188/taxpayer-funded-state-funeral-japans-shinzo-abe-triggers?utm_source=rss_feed | true | 2 |

DALLAS (Tribune News Service) — Donald Trump is reportedly preparing an early announcement of his 2024 candidacy. The White House insists President Joe Biden will seek re-election.
But a lot of prominent figures in both the Republican and Democratic parties are behaving like they don’t believe either will ultimately run — or think they’re eminently beatable.
And the early maneuvering suggests both parties could face free-for-all nominating fights like the GOP in 2016 and the Democrats in 2020, starting the day after the Nov. 8 midterm elections.
Among Republicans, Trump has clearly sought to preempt the field by raising a multimillion-dollar war chest, choosing candidates in many GOP primaries and campaigning like it already is 2024.
But doubts about his real intentions, continuing threats of legal action and concern about the negative aspects of his prospective candidacy always made it likely Republicans would have the kind of contest faced by parties without an incumbent president.
Though the polls show the former president starts as the person to beat, his prospective opponents include many of his former closest aides — including former Vice President Mike Pence and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
They’re hardly the only ones.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, shown in recent polls as Trump’s closest rival, has pointedly refused to say he’d back off if the former president runs.
Outgoing Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, an anti-Trump moderate, has not ruled out a race.
Nor has Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, perhaps the former president’s most outspoken GOP foe.
And an imposing array of GOP senators and governors has followed the usual path that prospective candidates make to help fellow Republicans in such crucial early voting states as Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina.
The Democratic outlook for 2024 is even more complicated:
The party has a weak incumbent vowing to seek a second term — and an unsettled nominating calendar.
But Biden’s vows are not deterring other candidates, though most of their moves are more covert than overt.
The reasons are obvious:
Biden’s age (he would be 86 at the end of a second term), his unpopularity (job approval below 40) and widespread opposition to his running again (a New York Times poll last week showed more than half of Democrats oppose his seeking re-election — though it also showed him beating Trump).
Those making tacit opening 2024 moves include two prominent big state governors — California’s Gavin Newsom and Illinois’s J.B. Pritzker — and a member of Biden’s own cabinet, Transportation Secretary and 2020 also-ran Pete Buttigieg.
Newsom, facing weak re-election opposition in November, recently took the unusual step of running an anti-DeSantis television ad in Florida.
It urged Floridians to fight GOP efforts to curb freedom through legislation limiting classroom speech and abortions — or move to California to find it.
DeSantis responded in kind, criticizing California’s lockdown policies during the novel coronavirus pandemic and accusing Newsom of treating his own state’s citizens “like peasants.”
Pritzker, who recently campaigned for fellow Democrats in the first primary state of New Hampshire and Maine, provided a sharp contrast with Biden’s more restrained response to the recent spate of gun murders, saying he was “furious” and demanding action.
Like Newsom, he is heavily favored for re-election this November.
Any list of potential 2024 hopefuls would also include two other Democratic governors — New Jersey’s Phil Murphy and North Carolina’s Roy Cooper — and one former governor — Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo.
Pritzker is not the only potential 2024 candidate making the trek to New Hampshire.
Two others who ran last time, Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar and New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, have also been there.
Meanwhile, Buttigieg’s cabinet position provides a built-in governmental platform to tour the country, touting the job-creating projects being launched by last year’s massive bipartisan infrastructure law.
The former South Bend, Ind., mayor also took some political steps.
He moved to Traverse City, Michigan, the hometown of his husband, Chasten, ostensibly because the latter’s parents could help provide child care for their recently adopted twins.
Of course, Michigan, a swing state that often votes Democratic, might provide a better launching pad for future political endeavors than heavily Republican Indiana.
And it may wind up with one of the earliest primaries.
Buttigieg also reactivated his political action committee to help endangered Democratic candidates this year.
And he was the highest-ranking Democrat to attend a meeting of the Democratic National Committee’s finance council this spring in South Carolina.
The most obvious Democratic alternative to Biden, of course, is his vice president, former California Sen. Kamala Harris.
She had a rough year politically, given the negative stories about her staff problems and her lack of influence within the administration.
But the Supreme Court’s decision reversing its Roe v. Wade abortion ruling gives her a powerful platform to campaign on this fall, stressing an issue important to Democrats that could help them counter a potential GOP tide.
Still, Democrats expect Harris to face opposition should she seek to succeed Biden in 2024.
And though age could be a factor in deterring Biden’s candidacy, an aide to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders said the Vermont independent might also enter an open 2024 race, though he is even older than the president.
Until the Nov. 8 midterm elections, expect a continuation of the shadow 2024 campaign.
But once the results are in, it’s likely to emerge openly, in ways unpredictable at present.

Now one of Yorkshire’s most ancient natural wonders, so linked to the old bandit stories of Tom Taylor and Dick Turpin, is to be opened to the public in new ways.
Visitor attraction How Stean Gorge is expanding its adventure offer with two new caves.
The gorge, as a tourism attraction, hosts activities such as rock climbing, canoeing and abseiling, and already sees caving and scrambling across its vast network.
Now two new caves, Hazel Close and Oxbow Cave, are to be opened to the public as the setting invests heavily, and in the wake of mounting demand for adventure tourism.
Tony Liddy is director of How Stean Gorge. Enquiries have shot up amid rising appetite for outdoor activities and staycations, he said, with the setting also installing new chalets.
Mr Liddy said: “It’s been incredible, there’s just a massive appetite out there to get into the great outdoors and experience adventure on our doorstep.
“We want to showcase the caves a bit more, and display previously unseen historic surveys and maps of the 10km cave network.
“We’ve transformed the site with our ambitious expansion plans to cater to the huge demand for adventure tourism,” he added.
“Acquiring the caves is an important part of that, as we want to showcase nature’s stunning playground in this unique gorge that has existed for 10,000 years, since the last Ice Age.”
Carved out by waterflow over thousands of years, the gorge reveals an 80ft-deep chasm and Eglin cave system, connected to a larger Goyden network under the River Nidd.
The underground caves are infamous as being used as an escape route and a hiding place for loot by some of Britain’s most notorious bandits, Tom Taylor with Dick Turpin.
In 1741 Tom Taylor was followed by the British Army Red Coats from nearby York to his underground hideout and, after a gunfight, was shot dead in the gorge.
Now infamous for their hidden history, the caves are also thought to have been home to Vikings from 866 to 1066 – while a trove of Roman coins was found buried here in 1868.
Anna Bowman is curator at Nidderdale Museum. She said: “Archaeologists believe that the Romans used caves or rivers as places to leave religious offerings.
Roman treasures
“Given the time period which the coins found covers, and that the coins were discovered in the cave hammered into the wall, it would indicate that these were possibly an offering.
“Nidderdale Museum’s collection includes part of the hoard. It was donated by the Metcalfe family, who owned How Stean George at the time of the discovery, in 1868.”
The most famous of How Stean Gorge’s caverns is Tom Taylor’s Cave, named after the highwayman, which is 180m long and up to 15m deep.
The two new caves are Hazel Close Cave, which is about 120m long and only accessible via a ladder, although featuring a walking passage for 37m.
Oxbow Cave is the second new cave, on the north side of How Stean Gorge and is 25m in length. Other caves on the site include Elgin’s Hole and Canal Cave.

Drive for change: Is Formula closer to next female racer? The hurdles to overcome, and hope for the future
W Series stars Jamie Chadwick, Abbie Eaton, Sarah Moore and Abbi Pulling discuss when Formula 1 could get its next female driver; Watch the W Series this weekend in France on Sky Sports F1, with qualifying on Friday at 6.10pm and the race on Saturday at 1.30pm
Last Updated: 22/07/22 6:37am
It has been 46 years since a female driver last raced in Formula 1 - and the hurdles remain incredibly tough to overcome. But, as the W Series stars illuminate the growing talent pool alongside F1's very best, there is a new hope that we are "a lot closer" to seeing the next woman on the grid.
Britain's Jamie Chadwick, Abbie Eaton, Sarah Moore and Abbi Pulling are all racing role models in W Series - and in a Sky Sports exclusive have revealed their reasons for optimism, and realism, regarding women breaking through.
W Series - the all-female championship which debuted in 2019 to serve as a springboard to F1 - has been a big hit and takes place on the same weekends as F1, generating even more publicity and interest.
Potentially related to W Series, there has also been an influx of female go-karters recently, essential for hopes of a next female F1 star.
It is that progress in grassroots that is giving many plenty of hope, even though it will take time for those drivers to develop and get a chance to make their mark in single-seaters, let alone break a drought that has lasted since Italy's Lella Lombardi raced in the 1976 Italian GP.
"I think we're a lot closer to getting a full-time female in F1 than we were, certainly when I started 20 years ago," explained Eaton.
"Whether it'll happen in the next year or two, I don't think so. I think it's probably more in a five to seven-year timeline.
"I think the driver that will be able to do that is probably a karter at the moment. Someone who is young, has a lot of finance behind her and hopefully has someone looking after the right path for her to make the jump up through the different ranks.
"I'm confident we will have a female in F1, but probably not for a few years yet."
Lombardi was the last female to race in a Grand Prix, while it has been eight years since Susie Wolff took part in an F1 practice session.
"Within the next 10 years I would love to see a female in Formula 1," added Pulling. "If it's not myself, the next bright young female coming through.
"There's quite a few of them coming up the ranks now, there's a lot more. I go back to go-kart tracks, they're always walking past you, they're always spotted.
"It's a really positive change that's happening and I can't wait to see when that female getting into F1, because I think that hopefully there will be one soon."
What are the hurdles for female F1 hopefuls?
As aforementioned, there is realism as well as optimism.
"I think we've still got a little way to go," said Moore, with a lack of funding and opportunities just a few of the obstacles, while W Series is still young in its existence and has cars that are much slower than F1's machines.
Chadwick is likely Britain's fastest female driver, having won against boys as a junior and claimed both W Series titles so far, but even she can't yet get close to F1. This winter the 24-year-old, a Williams development driver, missed out on an expected move to Formula 3, which is still two steps below.
"There are other hurdles," said Chadwick, who is also leading this year's W Series title race. "Obviously the money is what it does boil down to, and that's for everyone, male or female."
Chadwick also explained the physical issues female drivers face.
She said: "I know it's a different championship, but the Formula Regional European Championship - which actually the W Series cars are based on - are incredibly physical, and unfortunately in these championships, they're spec cars so it's the same for everyone.
"The steering wheel, for example, is the same thickness for everyone and that's all been designed around the average male driver. So if you suddenly had a whole crop of female drivers, cars would all have to be redesigned.
"But because there's only one female driver in a blue moon coming in, then it doesn't happen.

NEW YORK (AP) — America's top television networks on Thursday turned prime time over to a gripping account of former President Donald Trump's actions during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol — with one prominent exception.
The top-rated news network, Fox News Channel, stuck with its own lineup of commentators. Sean Hannity denounced the “show trial” elsewhere on TV just as he was featured in it, with the House's Jan. 6 committee examining his tweets to Trump administration figures.
Hannity aired a soundless snippet of committee members entering the hearing room as part of a lengthy monologue condemning the proceedings.
That was all Fox News Channel viewers saw of the hearing.
“It's really just a cheap, selectively edited political ad,” Hannity told his viewers.
Meanwhile, ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN and MSNBC aired the second prime-time hearing, focusing on Trump's real-time response to the riot. The committee said it was the last hearing until September.
“This very much sounded like a closing argument, certainly of this chapter of their investigation, and it was profound,” ABC News anchor David Muir said.
About 20 million people watched the first prime-time hearing on June 9, the Nielsen Company said. Generally, reaching that big an audience in mid-July would be a long shot, as it is the least-watched television month of the year.
Yet the seven daytime hearings have proven something of an oddity. Buoyed by strong word-of-mouth, the hearings grew in audience as they went along. CNN, for example, reached 1.5 million people for the second daytime hearing on June 16, and 2.6 million for the last one on June 12, Nielsen said.
Fox's broadcast station in New York, which did not air last month's prime-time hearing, showed the Thursday night session.
There's little interest at Fox News Channel, which televised the daytime hearings, although only up until the demarcation line of the network's popular show “The Five.” Ratings show that roughly half the network's audience flees when the hearings start, and return when they're over.
That would be a much more serious problem in prime time, where Fox's audience is more than double what it is during the day. Fox News Channel's decision not to air the prime-time hearings is almost certainly a function of the demands of their audience and prime-time hosts, said Nicole Hemmer, an expert on conservative media and author of the upcoming book “Partisans: The Conservative Revolutionaries Who Remade American Politics in the 1990s.”
“It creates an awkward situation when a host like Tucker Carlson tells his audience that the hearings are a debacle not worth their time, and then the network preempts his show to air them,” Hemmer said.
Carlson found plenty of things to talk about besides the hearing Thursday, including President Joe Biden's COVID-19 diagnosis, a “meltdown” by liberals over the U.S. Supreme Court's abortion decision, the failure of drug legalization, “climate crazies” and “trans-affirming” lessons in Los Angeles schools.
Hannity's lead story was the “grand finale” of the Jan. 6 committee, although he didn't show it — at least with the sound on.
He brought on guests like GOP Rep. Jim Banks of Indiana, who said that if the hearings have done anything, “they've exonerated President Trump and the people supporting him.”
Talk show host Mark Levin told Hannity the U.S. Justice Department is corrupt because “the Colbert 9 are roaming free.” That's a reference to federal prosecutors' decision not to bring charges against nine people associated with CBS’ “Late Show with Stephen Colbert” who were arrested in a U.S. Capitol complex building last month.
While Hannity was on the air, the Jan. 6 committee showed tweets that Hannity and other Fox News personalities had sent to Trump administration officials, warning that the Capitol riot was making the president look bad.
In a closing statement, Rep. Liz Cheney, the committee's vice chair, noted that most of its case against Trump has been made by Republicans. She ridiculed the notion that the committee's findings would be much different if Republicans other than she and Rep. Adam Kinzinger were members.
“Do you really think that Bill Barr is such a delicate flower that he would wilt under cross-examination?” she said.
The Republicans watching Fox News Channel on Thursday night didn't hear her.

Douglas County Health Department reports over 700 new COVID-19 cases since Thursday
OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — On Monday, the Douglas County Health Department (DCHD) reported 747 new positive COVID-19 tests had been received since Thursday’s report.
The number of positive cases since March of 2020 now totals 160,839. The case numbers reported do not include at-home tests. The county health department still encourages Douglas County residents to report their at-home test results because health officials do review them.
The health department hasn't received any new COVID-19-related death certificates since Thursday's report. The number of COVID-19-related deaths in Douglas County during the pandemic remains at 1,140.

The overall numbers include both COVID-19 patients and hospitalized patients for all other illnesses and injuries unless otherwise noted.
According to the most recent local hospital update received from the healthcare coalition by DCHD Sunday:
- There were 119 individuals hospitalized with COVID-19 including four pediatric cases.
- Eleven adults were receiving ICU-level care.
- Three people who were confirmed or suspected of having COVID-19 were on a ventilator.
- Medical and surgical beds were occupied at an 84% occupancy rate with 220 staffed beds available.
- Adult ICU beds were occupied at an 83% rate with 50 staffed beds available.
- Pediatric ICU beds were at 88% of capacity with 16 beds available.
- There were two additional COVID-19 persons of interest waiting for test results.

Have you been persuaded to watch Persuasion?
This article has been retired! For the latest on Netflix's Daily Top 10, click here.
If Dakota Johnson's Jane Austen adaptation Persuasion has persuaded you, you're not alone. Despite the fact that it is not very good, it continues to sit in the No. 1 spot on Netflix's list of the Top 10 Most Popular Movies. The rest of the top 5 is made up of the same movies that have been hanging around since last week: The Sea Beast, Sing 2, Chips, and 12 Strong. Joe Wright's Pan, a 2015 Peter Pan re-imagining, moves up to No. 7 today, while the super weird rom-com Barefoot falls to No. 10.
But which films in Netflix's Top 10 list of the most popular movies are worth watching? We break down the entire Netflix Top 10 Movies list and guide you through what to stream and what to skip. We do the same for Netflix's Top 10 TV shows. We also have recommendations for the best movies on Netflix and the best TV shows on Netflix to watch right now.

Based on Netflix's Top 10 Movies from Tuesday, July 19
For fans of: The Fleabag-ification of Jane Austen | Is it good?: Unfortunately not
Dakota Johnson stars as Anne Elliot in this adaptation of Jane Austen's final novel, in which she reconnects with the man to whom she was once betrothed years after calling off their engagement. You really want this to be better, but it mangles most of Austen's nuanced storytelling. (Yesterday's rank: 1)
For fans of: Sea creatures, accidental father figures | Is it good?: It is!
Most Netflix original kids movies are just re-dubs of second-tier CGI films from foreign studios, but The Sea Beast, from Moana and Big Hero 6 director Chris Williams, looks like a legitimate contender for best family film of the year. A young girl stows away on her idol's ship to help him hunt gigantic sea creatures, leading to seafaring adventure and action. It's getting great reviews, and features three TV Guide favorites as voice actors: The Boys' Karl Urban, Legion's Dan Stevens, and Chernobyl's Jared Harris. (Yesterday's rank: 2)
For fans of: Singing animals, famous voices, popular music | Is it good?: For kids, sure
If I know anything about the kids' movies of today, it's that they all seem to be built around covers of popular songs. That trend continues in Sing 2, an animated jukebox musical about a bunch of singing animals — voiced by incredibly famous people like Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon, Scarlett Johansson, and Pharrell Williams — who have to convince a rock star (voiced by Bono) to join their musical extravaganza. (Yesterday's rank: 4)
For fans of: Buddy cops | Is it good?: Absolutely not
Dax Shepard directs, writes, and stars in this movie adaptation of the classic TV series, which follows two cops who join the California Highway Patrol and form, wait for it, an unlikely partnership to investigate a heist. (Yesterday's rank: 3)
For fans of: The U.S. military | Is it good?: If you like U.S. military propaganda
Based on a true story and set in the aftermath of 9/11, a U.S. Special Forces unit learns to fight on horseback while on a mission in Afghanistan. (Yesterday's rank: 5)
For fans of: The Netflix true crime machine | Is it good?: It's a wild story
This documentary opens up new questions about the case of a young mother who was killed in 1990 and the subsequent kidnapping of her toddler son by the man thought to be his father. (Yesterday's rank: 6)
For fans of: Hugh Jackman, refusing to grow up | Is it good?: Nope
This film dares to ask, "What if Peter Pan and Captain Hook were friends?" I don't know if anyone really cared about the answer to that, but here Pan is anyway, following Peter (Levi Miller) and Hook's (Garrett Hedlund) fight against Blackbeard (Hugh Jackman). The most notable detail of this movie is the backlash it got for the misguided decision to cast Rooney Mara as Tiger Lily. (Yesterday's rank: 10)
For fans of: Throwback buddy comedy dynamics | Is it good?: It's pretty dumb
Kevin Hart and Woody Harrelson form an unlikely friendship when Hart's bumbling character, Teddy, gets mistaken for Harrelson's notorious assassin, known only as the Man From Toronto. (Yesterday's rank: 7)
For fans of: Modern classics, Regina George | Is it good?: It's so fetch
Despite years of being over-quoted online, this 2000s comedy about a girl (Lindsay Lohan) who infiltrates her high school's most popular clique, only to find herself becoming what she hates, still rules. (Yesterday's rank: 9)
For fans of: Bad rom-coms | Is it good?: No, but we love and support Scott Speedman
This 2014 romantic comedy stars Scott Speedman as a guy who convinces a patient (Evan Rachel Wood) at the psychiatric hospital he works at to pose as his girlfriend to show his family he's settling down. We don't have time to unpack all that's wrong with this premise.

Oshoala Wins Fifth African Footballer Award as Mane Leads Senegal to Dominate Awards
Super Falcons’ Vice-captain and FC Barcelona talisman, Asisat Oshoala, was last night crowed 2022 African Women’s Player of the Year.
The 27-year-old picked the award ahead of Ajara Nchout Njoya (Cameroon and Inter Milan) and Zambia international Grace Chanda (Zambia and BIIK Kazygurt).
With this, she becomes the first African to win this prestigious for a record five times, overtaking Perpetua Nkwocha who claimed the accolade on four occasions.
“It’s a record-breaking night for me and I want to thank everyone that has been in one way or the other involved in my career.
“My teammates at FC Barcelona and more importantly, the Super Falcons who had showed the whole world that they are still the best on the continent going by the performance they put up against the host, Morocco in the semi-final of WAFCON,” she said after she received the award.
The 2021-22 campaign was arguably Oshoala’s best yet as she played a key role in her Spanish side’s treble charge – the Spanish Women’s Super-cup, Copa de la Reina and the Primera Division.
Although, she missed a couple of matches due to injury, that did not stop her from emerging as league joint-top scorer after netting 20 goals in 19 league appearances to share the award with Brazilian Geyse Ferreira, who managed the same number of goals in 27 appearances for Madrid CFF.
Oshoala is the fourth Nigerian to land the women’s version of the award, following in the footsteps of Mercy Akide (2001), Nkwocha (2004, 2005, 2010 & 2011) and Cynthia Uwak (2006 & 2007).
In the male section and expectedly, Sadio Mane was named African Footballer of Year after a season in which he kicked the winning penalty for Senegal as they claimed their first Africa Cup of Nations title and repeated the feat when they secured World Cup qualification.
Mane finished ahead of Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah, his former Liverpool team mate, and fellow Senegalese Edouard Mendy in the voting.
It was the second time the 30-year-old Mane, who last month joined German champions Bayern Munich, has won the award.
He was the last winner of the award in 2019. The Confederation of African Football did not hold it over of the last two years and has now changed to recognising accomplishments over the season rather than the calendar year.
Mane converted the winning penalty in February as Senegal beat Egypt in the Cup of Nations final in Yaounde, proving the talisman as his country took a first ever African title.
Six weeks later, he struck the decisive spot-kick as Senegal again edged Egypt in a penalty shootout to win a place at the World Cup finals in Qatar.
He overshadowed Salah on both occasions, although the pair shared success with Liverpool in the FA Cup and League Cup and helped them reach the Champions League final.

BANGOR, Maine (AP) — Senators from Maine and Delaware want to establish a national mercury monitoring program to try to safeguard human health from the neurotoxin.
Republican Sen. Susan Collins and Democratic Sen. Tom Carper introduced the proposal. Collins said she was motivated to propose it because some lands and water bodies in her state have higher mercury pollution levels than the nation at large.
The proposal would establish mercury monitoring sites around the country to measure levels in air, water and living organisms, the senators said. The proposal was the subject of a hearing before the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee in mid-July.
Collins said the effort “would establish a comprehensive national monitoring network, helping to protect human health, safeguard fisheries, and track the effect of emissions reductions.” | https://www.greenwichtime.com/news/article/Senators-want-more-monitoring-of-mercury-in-17321588.php | 2022-07-22T06:41:49Z | https://www.greenwichtime.com/news/article/Senators-want-more-monitoring-of-mercury-in-17321588.php | true | null |
Acting Director General Tagaloa Robert Thomsen said while there is a presence of dengue fever, the evidence does not suggest Samoa will experience an outbreak.
Dr Thomsen said the hospital's surveillance team is on the look out for any new cases after six cases of dengue fever were confirmed for June, and the team has seen cases of the symptoms including diarrhoea, acute fever and rash.
Dr Thomsen said dengue fever usually occurs after rain and flooding and people need to watch out for mosquito breeding places.
Meanwhile, Dr Thomsen said an average of 250 people have been diagnosed with flu every day in the past three weeks.
He said there are currently three influenza viruses circulating in Samoa plus Covid-19 and he expects a surge in cases once Samoa's border opens to international travellers from August 1. | https://www.loopsamoa.com/samoa-news/samoa-health-expert-urges-caution-after-disease-reappears-114637 | 2022-07-22T06:45:12Z | https://www.loopsamoa.com/samoa-news/samoa-health-expert-urges-caution-after-disease-reappears-114637 | false | null |

Jul 22, 2022 Newsdesk Latest News, Singapore, Top of the deck
A country report on Singapore from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), issued on Thursday, praises the city-state’s public-policy approach to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The document was published a day after Marina Bay Sands (pictured, foreground) - one of Singapore’s two casino resorts – reported second-quarter results that beat market expectations. In other developments, an investment analyst upped by almost 80 percent his full-year 2022 earnings estimate for the other gaming complex, Resorts World Sentosa.
“Singapore’s skilful containment measures, effective vaccination campaign and decisive policy support helped the economy to recover impressively”, noted the International Monetary Fund.
The document added: “The high vaccination rate and lifting of domestic and border restrictions since end-March 2022 are also expected to support the recovery in consumer-facing, air transport, construction, and tourism-related sectors, though activities in most of these sectors may not return to pre-pandemic levels by end-2022.”
Marina Bay Sands reached in the second quarter, “92 percent” of its second-quarter 2019 mass-market gross gaming revenue (GGR), said a note from Maybank Investment Bank Bhd issued on Thursday.
Analyst Samuel Yin Shao Yang stated: “These results are significant as they reflect operations after Singapore reopened its borders on 1 April 2022 and axed Covid-19 testing requirements on 26 April 2022.”
Second-quarter net revenues at Marina Bay Sands rose 107.6 percent year-on-year, to US$679 million, stated the property’s owner, Las Vegas Sands Corp, in a Wednesday filing.
Robert Goldstein, chairman and chief executive of Las Vegas Sands, said on Wednesday in a conference call with investment analysts that Marina Bay Sands was recording growth in both the base mass and premium mass gaming segments. He added that the firm expected business activity to benefit from an increase in air traffic to Singapore, as current traffic levels were still at just around half of those recorded prior to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Malaysian, Indonesian tourists back
Second-quarter VIP “volume” – another measure of casino business – had recovered to about 75 percent of the pre-pandemic level at the property, stated Maybank.
This was “largely due to the return of Malaysian and Indonesian gamblers,” added the bank.
Regarding Marina Bay Sands’ latest reporting numbers, Maybank said: “Though a quarter earlier than we expected,” the figures were “broadly in line” with its expectation that industry VIP volume and mass market GGR would “recover to 75 percent and 85 percent of 2019 levels in the long term”.
It added: “Las Vegas Sands stated that gaming operations will not return to 100 percent of 2019 levels until China relaxes its zero-Covid policy.”
The bank said it interpreted Marina Bay Sands’ second quarter results as “positive” for Resorts World Sentosa – the other half of the city-state’s casino duopoly – run by Genting Singapore Ltd. “Operations recovered faster than expected even without Chinese gamblers,” according to Maybank.
It added: “We lift full-year 2022 estimated earnings for Genting Singapore by 78 percent.”
In Macau – where Las Vegas Sands has casino operations via its Sands China Ltd unit – market recovery has been stifled by periodic outbreaks of Covid-19 occurring on the mainland and in Macau.
China’s government is currently advising its citizens against non-essential travel beyond its boundaries. There have also been anecdotal reports in the media that exit visa requests are taking longer to assess than in pre-pandemic times.
John DeCree, an analyst at CBRE Securities LLC, suggested in a Thursday note that gaming revenue at Marina Bay Sands would “ultimately exceed 2019 levels likely in 2023, similar to trends seen at U.S. casinos.”
He added: “The cash flow and value of Marina Bay Sands remains a bedrock for the shares of Las Vegas Sands, providing substantial downside protection while leaving an attractive call option on a Macau recovery.”
The IMF team of experts assessing Singapore said in its Thursday report it expected 3.7-percent GDP growth for 2022, although headline inflation – influenced by geopolitical factors globally – was “expected to remain elevated at about 4.8 percent in 2022.”

'I thought, 'That looks off. That makes me uncomfortable': Outraged parents including Jewish rabbi call on Georgia elementary school to scrap new 'soaring eagle' logo which bears a STRIKING resemblance to infamous Nazi symbol
- The Cobb County School District changed its new logo for the East Side Elementary School following complaints that it resembled Nazi iconography
- The district said the eagle design was based off U.S. military symbols, but parents said it was clear it resembled the infamous Nazi eagle crest
- The district ultimately apologized and halted plans to rollout the logo for the school, which sits across the street from a synagogue
- The school district has previously been criticized after swastikas were graffitied in two high schools and middle schoolers were caught sharing Nazi symbols
- The recent incidents have caused tags to be put up across Atlanta asking for residents to stand against anti-Semitism
A Georgia school district was forced to apologize following outrage from parents after it approved a new logo for an elementary school that resembled the infamous Nazi eagle crest.
The Cobb County School District said it halted the rollout of the new logo for the East Side Elementary School, which sits across from a synagogue, after complaints that it bore a striking similarity to the Nazi iconography, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.
Parents and members of the community immediately called for a change once the new logo was presented earlier this week, with local Rabbi and mother Amanda Flaks saying she was shocked that the design was approved in the first place.
'I thought, 'That looks off. That makes me uncomfortable,' she told WSB 2 of the moment she saw the new design. 'I came back to it a few times and I felt more and more uncomfortable and sick each time.'
The Cobb County School District changed its new logo for the East Side Elementary School following complaints that it resembled Nazi iconography
Parents and members of the community were quick to point out that the proposed logo (left) resembled the inafous Nazi eagle crest (right)
The district said the eagle design was based off U.S. military symbols, primarily the U.S. Army colonel's eagle wings crest (above)
Local Rabbi and mother Amanda Flaks refuted the district's claims and said that the error was clear and that the new logo needed to be changed
The school district claimed it was not immediately aware of the similarities and had based the design off US army symbols.
Parents, however, said the way the school's initials were positioned on the eagle silhouette looked much too similar to the Nazi eagle crest design than any design from the US military.
The district said in a statement: 'We understand and strongly agree that similarities to Nazi symbolism are unacceptable.
Although this design was based on the US Army colonel's eagle wings, stakeholder input has been and continues to be important to our schools.'
Despite the school's claim, many parents said the problem with the logo was immediately clear and had no place in the elementary school.
'I don't want to see my kids wearing that on their shirt,' Mike Albuquerque, the father of two students who will attend the school next year, told AJC.
'Really it's a big oversight of the county and everyone involved in the process who reviewed that, to not call out the fact that this looks like Nazi iconography. Or maybe, who knows, somebody did call it out and it wasn't heard.'
Stefanie Ollanove, a Jewish parent in the community, echoed the disbelief that such a logo would be proposed.
'I was shocked, I was stunned,' Ollanove told Fox 5. 'A first I thought it couldn't be our school.'
'I was very insulted by this,' she added. 'As a Jewish family in this school system, it took me aback.'

The American Jewish Committee of Atlanta had also called out the district in a statement, saying: 'It is troubling that nobody in the Cobb County schools recognized why this logo would be problematic, especially for a school located across the street from a synagogue.'
The group also noted that this was not the first controversy regarding Nazi symbolism in the school district.
Last year, graffiti depicting swastikas were found in two of the district high school's during the Jewish high holidays, and earlier this year, middle school students were disciplined for sharing anti-Semitic imagery on social media.
The incidents have led to a group posting tags across the Atlanta-metro area urging citizens to stand against anti-Semitism.
'This is not the first time Cobb County schools have been tone-deaf to anti-Semitism,' Dov Wilker, director of the AJC Atlanta, said in a statement about the new logo.
'Pretending that antisemitism doesn't exist won't make it go away. The children who attend Cobb County schools — and their families — deserve better.' | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11038247/Georgia-school-district-forced-apologize-approving-new-logo-resembles-Nazi-eagle-crest.html | 2022-07-22T07:01:23Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11038247/Georgia-school-district-forced-apologize-approving-new-logo-resembles-Nazi-eagle-crest.html | true | 2 |
Birmingham City
3 Alfie Mawson alternatives Birmingham should consider as Stoke edge closer to signing of 28-year-old
Stoke City are edging closer to the signing of former Fulham centre-back Alfie Mawson, as per an update from journalist Ian Baker.
Birmingham City have held an interest in the 28-year-old during this summer window, however, Stoke look like they will win this particular race.
Here, we take a look at three Alfie Mawson alternatives Birmingham should consider as Stoke look set to land his signature…
Michael Hector
If unable to strike a deal for Mawson, then they could look at his former teammate at Fulham, Michael Hector.
Dominant in the air, winning the majority of his ground duels and progressive when in possession, it is a surprise that there has not been too much interest in the experienced defender.
Seeing his game time limited at Fulham last season because of the excellent options that the Cottagers had at their disposal, Hector is someone who could still thrive at Championship level.
25 questions about Birmingham City’s most unforgettable moments in their history – Can you get 100% correct?
Yoann Barbet
Still a free agent after his QPR release, Yoann Barbet could be a defensive option that the Blues consider.
Another who possesses all the required defensive abilities, he is an excellent ball carrier and can help start attacks with intelligent and precise passing.
The left-footed defender can play within a back four and a back three and could be a strong option for the Blues to consider as they target progress from last season’s 20th-placed finish.
Terell Thomas
The immediate future of former Reading defender Terell Thomas is an interesting one, with a club like Birmingham able to offer the 26-year-old a return to the Championship.
Thomas joined the Royals late on last season, playing just two games under Paul Ince whilst on a short-term contract.
Hibernian, Motherwell and Portsmouth are all currently battling it out for the defender’s signature, meaning it would not be an easy deal for the Blues to complete. | https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/3-alfie-mawson-alternatives-birmingham-should-consider-as-stoke-edge-closer-to-signing-of-28-year-old/ | 2022-07-22T07:05:24Z | https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/3-alfie-mawson-alternatives-birmingham-should-consider-as-stoke-edge-closer-to-signing-of-28-year-old/ | false | 1 |

Khatron Ke Khiladi 12: After Mr. Faisu & Nishant Bhat, Rubina Dilaik shares a fun video with African locals
Rubina Dilaik shares a fun video involving African locals in Cape Town.
Khatron Ke Khiladi 12 contestants are all set to unveil their fearless avatars as they will be seen performing gruesome stunts on the show. Like every year, this season also has an interesting mix of celebrities who will be seen channelling their inner Khiladi and will perform dangerous stunts assigned by the host Rohit Shetty. But apart from the stunts, the contestants are leaving no stone unturned to have fun and explore Cape Town. Rubina Dilaik, who is one of the contestants, has turned out to be one of the most fearless contestants when it comes to making her spot in the most anticipated and dangerous show 'Khatron Ke Khiladi season 12'. But, along with the daring stunts, the contestants are also seen having fun in Cape Town.
Rubina Dilaik has been entertaining his fans and fellow contestants with several videos and pictures. She recently shared a video on her Instagram handle, grooving on an Afro dance number with some African locals. In the video, Rubina is seen jumping with joy along with two Africans, and in the caption, she wrote, “Zulu”. Several fans have commented on her post and called her adorable.

In the promo, Rubina Dilaik is seen pitted against actress Kanika Mann for a stunt involving ostriches. But before the stunt starts, Rubina is seen frowning and displeased. Rohit Shetty asked her the reason for the same, and what she reveals, comes as a massive shock for everyone. Rubina accused Kanika Mann of cheating the task by using google to search for ways to tame ostriches, ahead of the task. She said that when they were changing for the task, she heard a phone ring, and she opened the search history on the phone, and she was stunned to see searches about ostriches. While Kanika Mann tried to defend herself saying, “It was not my phone. I don’t even know the meaning of tame”, Rubina replies, “It’s a disappointment.” | https://www.pinkvilla.com/tv/news-gossip/khatron-ke-khiladi-12-after-mr-faisu-nishant-bhat-rubina-dilaik-shares-fun-video-african-locals-1165505 | 2022-07-22T07:16:13Z | https://www.pinkvilla.com/tv/news-gossip/khatron-ke-khiladi-12-after-mr-faisu-nishant-bhat-rubina-dilaik-shares-fun-video-african-locals-1165505 | false | 1 |
BBC Director General Tim Davie has issued a public apology to Prince Charles and his sons William and Harry over the infamous 1995 BBC Princess Diana 'Panorama' interview.
Princess Diana was interviewed by journalist Martin Bashir on the programme. An independent investigation into the programme, conducted by Lord Dyson, found that the public broadcaster "fell short of the high standards of integrity and transparency which are its hallmark."
According to Variety, the Dyson report also found that Bashir used deceitful methods to gain access to Princess Diana, including allegedly forging documents.
The methods also included allegations that William and Harry's former nanny Alexandra Pettifer, better known as Tiggy Legge-Bourke, had an affair with Charles. Pettifer filed a defamation claim in the London High Court, which she won on Thursday.
Shortly after the court ruling, Davie issued a statement.
"Following publication of the Dyson Report last year, we have been working with those who suffered as a result of the deceitful tactics used by the BBC in pursuit of its interview with Diana, Princess of Wales for the Panorama programme in 1995, including the matters that were mentioned in court today in respect of Miss Tiggy Legge-Bourke, now Mrs. Alexandra Pettifer."
"The BBC has agreed to pay substantial damages to Mrs. Pettifer and I would like to take this opportunity to apologise publicly to her, to the Prince of Wales (Charles), and to the Dukes of Cambridge (William) and Sussex (Harry), for the way in which Princess Diana was deceived and the subsequent impact on all their lives.
"It is a matter of great regret that the BBC did not get to the facts in the immediate aftermath of the programme when there were warning signs that the interview might have been obtained improperly."
"Instead, as The Duke of Cambridge himself put it, the BBC failed to ask the tough questions. Had we done our job properly, Princess Diana would have known the truth during her lifetime. We let her, the Royal Family and our audiences down."
"Now we know about the shocking way that the interview was obtained I have decided that the BBC will never show the programme again; nor will we license it in whole or part to other broadcasters."
"It does of course remain part of the historical record and there may be occasions in the future when it will be justified for the BBC to use short extracts for journalistic purposes, but these will be few and far between and will need to be agreed at Executive Committee level and set in the full context of what we now know about the way the interview was obtained. I would urge others to exercise similar restraint."

New this week: Beyoncé, Shark Week, ESPYS and 'The Gray Man'
Here’s a collection curated by The Associated Press’ entertainment journalists of what’s arriving on TV, streaming services and music platforms this week.
MOVIES
— Netflix places one of its biggest bets yet on "The Gray Man," a globe-trotting action thriller starring Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans and Ana de Armas. One of the streamer's most expensive films, "The Gray Man" is directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, the brothers who presided over one of the biggest box-office smashes ever ("Avengers: Endgame") before they started churning out blockbusters for Netflix. Their "Extraction," with Chris Hemsworth, ranks as one of the service's most-watched films, and "The Gray Man" — a spy vs. spy adventure with some comic flare and major franchise ambitions — is likely to follow suit. It debuts Friday.
— Before Billy Porter was a Broadway star and red-carpet doyen, he was a kid in Pittsburgh. In "Anything's Possible, " Porter returns to his hometown to make his directorial debut, a trans coming-of-age comedy. The film, which debuts Friday on Amazon Prime Video, stars Eva Reign as a Black transgender girl in a relationship with a boy (Abubakr Ali) that causes a high school-wide stir. Porter fashioned his film, written by Ximena García Lecuona, as a teen rom-com for Gen Z and a love letter to Pittsburgh.

MUSIC
— Few details about Beyoncé's new album "Renaissance" out Friday are available but the lead single is performing well. Her "Break My Soul" became the first song to debut in the top 10 in 26 years on Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart. Of the 16-track album itself Beyoncé calls it "a beautiful journey of exploration." Creating it "allowed me a place to dream and to find escape during a scary time for the world," the superstar wrote on Instagram, next to an image of her on a see-through horse. Back in June, she teased on her social media accounts that "Renaissance" would be "act i," but it's unclear how many acts will follow or when they will be released.
— It's July so that means a promised second 2022 album from the mad professor of rock, Jack White. He follows up the April release of "Fear of the Dawn" with the 11-track "Entering Heaven Alive." The two albums share the same song — Taking Me Back" — but arranged differently, one heavy, one jazzy. Another song on the new set is titled "Queen of the Bees" and has the silly lyric "I want to hold you like a sloth hugs a tree." He told EW: "I was challenging myself to sort of see what I could get away with!"
— ZZ Top — now without Dusty Hill — have a new, 11-track live album, called "Raw," with several of the band's hits like "Gimmie All Your Lovin″" and "La Grange." Recorded at Gruene Hall — "the oldest continually run dance hall in Texas" — in 2019, "Raw" features the band's original lineup of electric guitar player Billy Gibbons, drummer Frank Beard and the late Hill on bass. Made in connection with the 2019 ZZ Top Netflix documentary, "That Little Ol' Band From Texas," the 11-track album was produced by Gibbons, and is dedicated "in righteous memory of Dusty Hill."
— Ben Harper has never really minced words and that's clearly the case on his new album, the 11-track "Bloodline Maintenance. "Slavery/We need to talk about it/Black Lives Matter/'Cause history says we don't," he sings over a funky guitar on the lead single, "We Need To Talk About It." The new record sees Harper reflecting on the loss of his father and the personal nature of the subject matter led Ben to perform most of the album himself — playing guitar, bass, drums and percussion, including a plastic toy snare. "I knew the sounds I was hearing in my head were so unorthodox that I had to do most of it myself," he says.

TELEVISION
— Stephen Curry is the host of the ESPYS sports awards, and more. The NBA championship finals MVP is up for three honors including best male athlete at the ceremony airing Wednesday on ABC. Curry's rivals for the top award include Shohei Ohtani of the Los Angeles Angels, with Olympic champs Sunisa Lee and Katie Ledecky among those competing for best female athlete. ESPN previously said the ceremony will honor Vitali Klitschko, former heavyweight boxing champion and mayor of Kyiv, Ukraine, with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award. Retired Army Command Sgt. Maj. Gretchen Evans will receive the Pat Tillman Award for Service.
— Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward were acclaimed actors and a long-married couple. They were also "The Last Movie Stars," according to the six-part documentary of that title out on Thursday on HBO Max. The docuseries, directed by actor Ethan Hawke, promises a definitive account of their "dedication to their art, philanthropy and each other." Transcriptions of interviews with Newman and intimates — conducted for his autobiography that went uncompleted — are voiced by actors including George Clooney and Laura Linney. Also heard from are several of their children and Martin Scorsese, an executive producer for the film. Woodward, who is 92, was married to Newman from 1958 until his death in 2008 at age 83.
— The summer thrill ride known as Shark Week is back on Discovery Channel for its 34th year, with stars including tiger sharks with a taste for pork and "monster" hammerheads. The Bahamas' Exuma Islands and Papua New Guinea are among the new spots visited during the extravaganza airing from Sunday, July 24, to Saturday, July 30, with Dwayne Johnson as its first emcee. Marine biologists and institutions contribute insights about shark mating and migration, with findings about a new and undescribed species promised. Among the highlights: "Island of Walking Sharks," on Wednesday, with a scientist's investigation of shark evolution.

NEW YORK (AP) — Han Xu understandably grew up idolizing Yao Ming, mesmerized by the giant shadow the 7-foot-6 Hall of Famer cast each time he stepped onto an NBA court.
Standing 6-10, Han would like to emulate Yao's impact — including his influence on the sport in China. She wants to be a female beacon of basketball in her native land.
Han is on her way. Fans can't seem to get enough of the 22-year-old budding star.
“Han and Li (Yueru) have been creating hype online and offline. Many girls have been inspired by Han and Li, and we have numbers to show that more girls have started participating in basketball on all levels," said China basketball analyst Michael Yuan, founder of Team Fountainhead. “We can also clearly see more news coverage and other kinds of user generated content on China’s social media platform.”
Han's highlights have garnered millions of views on streaming platforms in China. Kuaishou, a global social media platform, recently hosted a livestreaming session with her that generated about 1.6 million views.
Han and the 6-7 Li, who is with the Chicago Sky, are the latest of a half dozen Chinese players to have spent time in the WNBA. The first to have an impact in the league was Haixia Zheng, who averaged 8.9 points in two seasons with the Los Angeles Sparks in 1997 and 1998 — starting 21 games her first year.
“Homegrown players like Han Xu and Li Yueru succeeding at the highest level drives interest among China’s passionate basketball fans and inspires Chinese youth to play the game,” said Jonathan Li, senior vice president of NBA China.
Chinese fans became aware of Han and Li Yueru during their stints with the Olympic team that finished fifth in Tokyo. But their fan base has grown since both were drafted in 2019 — Han in the second round, Li in the third.
“I was very honored to be able to come here to make my dream come true in 2019,” Han said through a translator. “At that moment, I just wanted to grow up gradually, to learn from the veteran players who compete in the world highest-level basketball league.
“And I also hoped to be able to promote the sport in China with my influence here.”
Like her childhood hero: the 7-6 Yao.
“He had a very successful career in NBA and he also promoted the culture of the sport in China so that now more Chinese people like to watch basketball,” Han said. “I hope I can also make some influence in WNBA and then transfer my influence back to my country and let more fans to see the performance from a Chinese player.”
Neither Han nor the 6-7 Li, who turned 23 in March, were born when Zheng was doing her WNBA thing in L.A. And neither have Yao's skills — and they may never be as good, not many are.
The Houston Rockets made Yao the No. 1 overall pick in the 2002 NBA draft. He has become an ambassador of the game in China and is currently a Chinese basketball executive.
Though Han and Li are still honing their skills, the players' popularity is on the rise in China.
Han is averaging 9.2 points and shooting nearly 54% from the field while playing about 18 minutes a game with the Liberty. Li hasn’t had as much success, averaging just 2 points a game in Chicago.
When they played in New York last month, a handful of Chinese media were on hand. Interviews with the players drew millions of views in China. They will square off again on Saturday and it will be broadcast live in China.
“The population of Chinese basketball fans is huge," Li said through a translator. “Fans in China, while they are watching me and Han Xu highlights, will get to know more WNBA players and WNBA teams. I think this is a thing that could benefit me and Han Xu but also could benefit the WNBA as well.”
Both Han and Li have excelled in the offseason in the Chinese Basketball League that has had WNBA players such as Maya Moore and Sylvia Fowles play in it.
“When I was growing up there were a lot of WNBA players who I looked up to," Li said. “There is a lot of WNBA players who I think no matter in what aspect in life or in their career, I think (in) all those aspects they are doing a great job. They are excellent.”
Han has shown flashes that she could be dominant force in the WNBA. She scored a career-high 24 points against Las Vegas earlier this month.
“I think it’s a great honor that domestic fans can watch WNBA games on TV in China," Han said. "I think when fans in China watch my play in the league, they can get a better idea about the development of this sport in overseas.”

The Governor of Anbar, Ali Farhan (pictured), has reportedly announced new oil discoveries in the province.
According to the state-controlled Iraqi News Agency (INA), the finds are in the Nukhaib and Tharthar areas.
Farhan is quoted as saying that, "the local government in Anbar worked to prepare the atmosphere for oil exploration and provided the security effort for companies in the province," expressing his hope that, "the Ministry of Oil will take steps to complete oil explorations after canceling the contract with the Korean company."
There was no mention of the size of the fields, and the news is not yet carried on the Ministry of Oil website.

SINGAPORE: The CBOT soybean November contract may test a support at $12.78-1/4 per bushel, a break below could open the way towards $12.07-1/2 to $12.51-1/4 range.
A wedge has been confirmed, signalling a target of $12.51-1/4. Once the contract drops to this level, it is likely to extend loss towards $12.07-1/2, as indicated by the Fibonacci projection analysis.
Resistance is at $13.09-1/4, a break above could lead to a gain into $13.22-1/4 to $13.47-1/4 range.
On the daily chart, a pennant has been confirmed, suggesting a much lower target of $11.24-1/4.
CBOT soybeans neutral in $13.66 to $13.93 range
A realistic target will be $12.12-1/4. Both the former supports at $14.08-3/4 and $13.00-1/4 worked effectively.
The support at $12.12-1/4 is expected to stop the fall and trigger a bounce as well. | https://www.brecorder.com/news/40187506/cbot-soybeans-may-test-support-at-1278-14 | 2022-07-22T07:37:19Z | https://www.brecorder.com/news/40187506/cbot-soybeans-may-test-support-at-1278-14 | false | null |
Arsenal transfer news LIVE: Zinchenko pictured in Gunners SHORTS, Milinkovic-Savic latest, Arthur Melo talks
OLEKSANDR ZINCHENKO's Arsenal transfer will be announced imminently - and he's already been pictured wearing Arsenal shorts.
And the previous night he was spotted next to Arsenal transfer chief Edu watching Arsenal's friendly win over Orlando City.
The Ukrainian, 25, will have his £30m move from Manchester City announced this week after having his medical in the US.
And talks are reported to have begun with another Brazilian - Juventus midfielder Arthur Melo.

Stay up to date with all the latest from the Emirates...
Jesus praises Martinelli's work rate
Gabriel Jesus is in awe of Arsenal team-mate Gabriel Martinelli's work rate.
Jesus has been blown away by Martinelli's tireless displays since the striker moved to The Emirates.
When asked about his Brazil counterpart, Jesus gushed: "Woah!
“Martinelli. He’s an animal. Animal. He never gets tired!”
Keep hold of Gabriel
Arsenal have been urged to keep hold of Gabriel Magalhaes as Rob Holding isn't a viable replacement at the heart of their defence.
That's according to Mikel Silvestre who made the assessment amid reports linking Gabriel with Juventus.
Silvestre told Lord Ping: "I hope Gabriel stays because he was looking good and it’s important to have two centre-backs to work together, so it’d be a big loss for Arsenal.
“I like Rob [Holding] but he’s not up to the same level as Gabriel and he wouldn’t be as strong with Ben at centre-back.”
Morning, Arsenal fans
Mikel Arteta hailed "exceptional" newcomer Oleksandr Zinchenko as the Arsenal boss predicted more pre-season comings and goings.
Arteta is tying up a "few formalities" on Ukraine left-back Zinchenko's £30million arrival from Manchester City.
And the Spaniard said: “I know the player really well. He’s an exceptional footballer and is going to bring a competitive edge to that dressing room.”
The Gunners are thought to be targeting a new wideman, with a half an eye too on strengthening central defence and midfield.
But Arteta admits he's also ready to offload fringe players "soon".
He said: “We have a very large squad so we need to make some decisions on the players that we are not going to be using consistently, and then be fair and straight with them."
Arsenal and Chelsea have reportedly contacted Lazio about goalscoring midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
But Calciomercato suggest the Gunners, in particular, have been put off by the Serie A club’s valuation – of around £60million to £68m.
Newcastle reportedly regard Arsenal winger Nicolas Pepe as “attainable”.
And new playmaker Fabio Vieira has already returned to training after a "slight injury".
The Gunners remain favourites ahead of Manchester United to sign Leicester's Youri Tielemans.
Lastly, Sampdoria are said to fancy re-signing Lucas Torreira - but with a massive pay cut.
Toon eye Pepe
Newcastle reportedly regard Arsenal winger Nicolas Pepe as “attainable”.
And that could even be a boost for the Gunners, who’d love to raise money to fund a bid for Leicester’s Youri Tielemans.
Givemesport claim Toon chief Eddie Howe fancies Pepe as competition and cover for French magician Allan Saint-Maximin.
And it’s claimed the Magpies hope Arsenal would slash the asking price for the 27-year-old to around £21million.
Nketiah admits he was close to quitting Gunners
Eddie Nketiah has revealed how close he came to quitting Arsenal this summer before a dramatic late change of heart, writes MARK IRWIN.
The England Under-21 international striker had become increasingly exasperated by his lack of starting opportunities at the Emirates and was seriously considering leaving as a free agent.
But after playing second fiddle to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alex Lacazette for most of last season, a late run of goals convinced him that he could still be a major player with Arsenal.
And now he is eager to strike up a dynamic partnership with £45million Gabriel Jesus after signing a new five-year contract worth £100,000-a-week.
He admits: “When you’re in the final few months of your contract you have to weigh up all of your options and of course I had a lot of offers from other teams.
“I wanted to wait until the end of the season before making any decisions and I sat down with my agents, with my family and with the manager to consider everything.
“Obviously I’m not part of the transfer decisions at the club so I didn’t know who they were going to be signing. So the only thing I focused on was myself and the opportunities I was going to get. "
Vi for victory in injury battle
New Arsenal signing Fabio Vieira has given the club a huge boost by returning to first-team training after picking up an injury.
The 22-year-old completed a £35m transfer from Porto to The Emirates in July.
But he sent the club into panic by getting injured just days after finalising his move to North London.
The midfielder was spotted sporting a protective boot on his left ankle as he posed with a fan holding an Arsenal shirt.
The setback meant the 22-year-old’s been unable to pull on the Gunners’ shirt himself during their tour of America.
However, Gunners fans can breathe a sigh of relief as Vieira’s been pictured in training without the boot protecting his ankle.
Ona mission to land Amadou
West Ham are reportedly moving further ahead of Arsenal in the hunt for Lille midfielder Amadou Onana.
It's thought the one-cap Belgium star, 20, is keen to step up the ladder.
And the Hammers are tipped to bid for the Lille’s 6ft 5in anchorman.
Your odds-on to join Gunners
Arsenal are odds-on to sign main target Youri Tielemans.
Manchester United remain outsiders with Spurs and Newcastle to land the Leicester midfielder.
That’s despite increasing speculation the Belgium hero would consider switching to Old Trafford.
CORAL ODDS: 8-11 Arsenal, 11-2 Manchester United, 7-1 Tottenham, 10-1 Newcastle
Milinkovic-Savic linked to Chelsea and Arsenal
Chelsea and Arsenal have contacted Lazio about midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, reports in Italy claim.
Calcio Merca say the London giants admire the Serbia star’s box-to-box style and goal record.
But Calciomercato, suggest the Gunners, in particular, have been put off by the Serie A club’s valuation – of around £60million to £68m.
Milinkovic-Savic netted 11 times for Lazio last term, having joined from Genk in 2015.
Arteta hints at further signings
After Mikel Arteta had spoken highly of Oleksandr Zinchenko, the Arsenal boss failed to rule out the idea that other players would soon be arriving at the Emirates.
However, the Spaniard suggested that outgoings are just as likely, admitting that the club ‘need to make things happen.’
When asked if there would be any more signings, Arteta smiled and said: “I don’t know, this is what we have today.”
“We have a very large squad so we need to make some decisions on the players that we are not going to be using consistently, and then be fair and straight with them. That’s a process that’s going to start soon.”
Sampdoria keen on old boy Lucas
Sampdoria are only prepared to pay Lucas Torreira £15,000 a week to re-sign the midfielder – way below his £65k Arsenal wages.
That’s the claim this evening as the Serie A club eye the Uruguay star four years after selling him to the Gunners.
The 39-cap star has largely struggled in the Prem, spending the last two seasons on loan at Atletico Madrid and Fiorentina respectively.
But La Repubblica say the 26-year-old’s wage demands make a return to Sampdoria virtually “impossible”.
Everton tipped to join Pepe hunt
Everton could join West Ham, Leicester and Newcastle in eyeing Arsenal winger Nicolas Pepe
Journalist Pete O’Rourke claims Toffees' boss Frank Lampard would be interested in a loan deal for the Ivory Coast star.
Lampard wants more attacking options as he's lost Richarlison to Tottenham and his only summer recruit so far is Burnley defender James Tarkowski.
It's claimed Arsenal rate Pepe at around £22.5million.
Mikel tieing up 'formalities' in Zinchenko deal
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is “really happy” to land “exceptional footballer” Oleksandr Zinchenko.
Arteta says only a “few formalities” remain for the Manchester City left-back to sign.
The Gunners will then turn to pruning what Arteta calls a “large squad”.
Aftre beating Orlando 3-1, the Spaniard said of Ukraine hero Zinchenko: “There are still a few formalities to get everything concreted, but really happy to have him.
“I know the player really well. He’s an exceptional footballer and is someone that is going to bring a competitive edge to that dressing room.”
Stung out to dry
Former Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette is set to miss a Lyon friendly after being attacked by WASPS.
The Ligue 1 outfit will face Feyenoord on Sunday as they continue their pre-season preparations.
But L'Equipe understands that Lacazette, 31, is a doubt for the game due to wasp stings which were sustained in a Dutch forest.
The ex-Gunners striker was not the only Lyon player to suffer this, with Moussa Dembele also reportedly stung.
However, Dembele was back in training on Thursday and is expected to be available for the match.
It remains to be seen whether Lacazette will be able to do the same as he missed training just three days before the game.
Could Newc nick Nic?
Newcastle reportedly regard Arsenal winger Nicolas Pepe as "attainable".
And that could even be a boost for the Gunners, who'd love to raise money to fund a bid for Leicester's Youri Tielemans.
Givemesport claim Toon chief Eddie Howe fancies Pepe as competition and cover for French magician Allan Saint-Maximin.
And it's claimed the Magpies hope Arsenal would slash the asking price for the 27-year-old to around £21million.
Gremio join hunt for Melo
Arsenal target Arthur Melo is being linked to Brazilian second-tier side Gremio as Juventus look to offload the midfielder.
Melo, 25, who has 22 Brazil caps, launched his career with Gremio from 2015-18.
He then switched to Barcelona for two years before joining Juve in 2020.
From Jan Utd to new Prem club?
West Ham and Everton are among two clubs considering a move for former Manchester United man Adnan Januzaj.
AS report that the Belgian is available on a free transfer following the expiry of his contract with Real Sociedad.
Napoli and Sevilla are also interested in the 27-year-old winger, who has 15 caps for his country.
Januzaj made 63 appearances during his time at Old Trafford, scoring five goals.
Vi for victory in injury battle
New Arsenal signing Fabio Vieira has given the club a huge boost by returning to first-team training after picking up an injury.
The 22-year-old completed a £35m transfer from Porto to The Emirates in July.
But he sent the club into panic by getting injured just days after finalising his move to North London.

Torreira 'needs £50k-a-week pay cut to join Sampdoria'
Sampdoria are only prepared to pay Lucas Torreira £15,000 a week to re-sign the midfielder - way below his £65k Arsenal wages.
That's the claim this evening as the Serie A club eye the Uruguay star four years after selling him to the Gunners.

Centre-back in the spotlight
Goals have been plentiful in recent games between Arsenal and Crystal Palace, but the new season’s Premier League opener could be a different story.
The London rivals meet two weeks tomorrow under the Friday night lights of Selhurst Park, and both will be banking on their key men at the back – Marc Guehi and Gabriel – to keep the contest tight.
Why Foxes might need to sell Youri and Maddison
Youri Tielemans and James Maddison are reportedly two of many stars Leicester may need to sell this summer amid fears over Financial Fair Play, writes ALEX COLE.
Despite boss Brendan Rodgers calling for a "healthy shake up" of his squad back in February, the Foxes are the only Premier League club yet to make a signing.
And according to the Telegraph, Leicester could be forced into selling more valuable assets if they can't shift lesser names before they buy.
This means that the likes of Maddison, Harvey Barnes, Wesley Fofana, Youri Tielemans and James Justin could become available as the window progresses.
FIVE WHO COULD GO
James Maddison
Harvey Barnes
Wesley Fofana
Youri Tielemans
James JustinBrighton leapfrog Gunners in Grillitsch race
Brighton have reportedly been turned down by Arsenal target Florian Grillitsch - but could still win the race for the free-agent midfielder.
Fanatik journalist Yakup Çınar claims a Prem club has had a £2million-plus package rejected by the outgoing Hoffenheim star.
But it's thought Brighton remain in pole position for the 33-cap Austria ace, 26. who can also play in central defence.
Arsenal were persistently linked with Grillitsch.
Arteta hints at offloading fringe stars
Mikel Arteta will "soon" decide the future of Arsenal's fringe stars.
The Gunners boss said: “We have to make some decisions on the players that we're not going to be using consistently and be fair with them”.

New Delhi, July 22 (PTI) The closure of a few coal-fired power plants within 300 km radius of Delhi last year helped reduce pollution levels, the government has said.
In November last year, India had temporarily shut down six of the 11 thermal power plants (TPPs) within 300 km radius of Delhi in view of hazardous air quality in Delhi-NCR. The directions were extended till December 15 as the air quality remained in the adverse range.

"It is a well-established fact that coal is a heavy polluting fuel. Shutting down of a few coal-fired power plants located within 300 km radius of Delhi in December 2021, along with a series of other measures taken in various sectors, helped in reducing pollution levels," Union Minister of State for Environment Ashwini Kumar Choubey told the Rajya Sabha on Thursday.
BJD MP Amar Patnaik had asked whether shutting down of a few coal-fired power plants around Delhi in December 2021, as mandated by the Commission for Air Quality Management, helped reduce Delhi-NCR's pollution.
The Delhi government had earlier shutdown three TPPs operating within the capital permanently -- Indraprastha power plant in 2009, Rajghat plant in 2015, and Badarpur plant -- in 2018.
India has already extended its December 2017 deadline for TPPs to meet the emissions standards.
In April last year, the Environment Ministry issued amended rules allowing thermal power plants within 10 km of the National Capital Region (NCR) and in cities with more than 10 lakh population to comply with new emission norms by the end of 2022.
TPPs in "non-attainment cities" and those within 10 km of critically polluted areas are required to meet the emission norms by December 31, 2023.
Non-attainment cities are those which have consistently failed to meet the National Ambient Air Quality Standards. The CPCB has identified 132 such cities.
Coal-fired power plants in the rest of the areas have to comply with the new standards by December 31, 2024.
Major pollutants from coal-fired power plants are oxides of nitrogen (NOx), sulphur dioxide (SO2) and particulate matter (PM).
According to the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE), TPPs account for more than 60 per cent of total industrial emissions of particulate matter; 45 per cent of SO2; 30 per cent of NOx; and more than 80 per cent of mercury, in the country.
These are also responsible for 70 per cent of the total freshwater withdrawal by all industries, according to an analysis by the green think tank.
A report by the CSE in 2020 showed that only two out of the 11 power plants located around Delhi had SO2 control technology.

Ricky Martin has come out victorious in his battle against his nephew, who accused the superstar of harassing him following a torrid affair. Radar can confirm that Martin’s nephew dismissed the allegations; therefore, the judge has dropped the temporary restraining order against the singer.
Martin’s attorneys, Joaquín Monserrate Matienzo, Carmelo Dávila and Harry Massanet Pastrana, tell RadarOnline.com, “Just as we had anticipated, the temporary protection order was not extended by the Court. The accuser confirmed to the court that his decision to dismiss the matter was his alone, without any outside influence or pressure, and the accuser confirmed he was satisfied with his legal representation in the matter.”
They continue, “The request came from the accuser asking to dismiss the case. This was never anything more than a troubled individual making false allegations with absolutely nothing to substantiate them. We are glad that our client saw justice done and can now move forward with his life and his career.” | https://socialitelife.com/ricky-martin-wins-court-battle-nephew-following-incest-harassment-claims/ | 2022-07-22T07:39:50Z | https://socialitelife.com/ricky-martin-wins-court-battle-nephew-following-incest-harassment-claims/ | false | 2 |
Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi resigns as coalition collapses
Italy is the European Union’s third-largest economy and is now in political turmoil as Prime Minister Mario Draghi re-submitted his resignation to President Sergio Mattarella on Thursday. Three parties in the coalition government, the 5-star movement, Forza Italia, and League all boycotted a confidence vote on Wednesday night. Mattarella accepted Draghi’s resignation and will be meeting with the speakers of parliament Thursday afternoon.
Draghi had first tendered his resignation last week as the 5-star movement withdrew its support in a confidence vote on a package to assist in Italy’s cost of living crisis. President Sergio Mattarella had rejected his resignation and urged Draghi to find a solution. However, after Wednesday night’s vote, Draghi has officially resigned and Italy’s main stock market, the FTSEMIB was down over 2.5% after the country’s government almost collapsed.

In a new study that nobody asked for, analysts at the website Pettable recently determined how much it costs to own a cat in each state, and Arizona falls right in the middle of the litter. On average, new cat owners in Arizona pay $1,784 in the first year, which is about 62 bucks more than the national average. That figure includes food ($789.12), pet insurance ($383.52), year vet visits ($57.95) and vaccines and spay/neuter procedures ($552.95.)
If these figures are legitimate, then adoptions of animals from the Western Area Humane Society seem to be a heckuva deal.
If you’re interested, the most expensive place to own a cat is Delaware at $2,820 in annual costs. Idaho is the least expensvie at $1,233. — Today’s News-Herald | https://www.havasunews.com/lifestyle/film-festival-is-tomorrow/article_6a4c8f62-0982-11ed-a02d-93da552db4f7.html | 2022-07-22T07:43:35Z | https://www.havasunews.com/lifestyle/film-festival-is-tomorrow/article_6a4c8f62-0982-11ed-a02d-93da552db4f7.html | true | 2 |

Russia defends veto of aid to northwest Syria for one year
By EDITH M. LEDERER
Associated Press
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Russia is defending its veto of a U.N. resolution that would have extended humanitarian aid deliveries to 4.1 million Syrians in the rebel-held northwest from Turkey for a year. Russia’s deputy ambassador Dmitry Polyansky insisted that Moscow’s demand for only a six-month extension was essential and accused Western nations of using “sly” tactics and trying “to govern the world.” He had to defend the veto before the General Assembly. | https://keyt.com/news/2022/07/21/russia-defends-veto-of-aid-to-northwest-syria-for-one-year/ | 2022-07-22T08:01:46Z | https://keyt.com/news/2022/07/21/russia-defends-veto-of-aid-to-northwest-syria-for-one-year/ | true | null |
Syniverse today announced key 2012 LTE roaming advancements that are paving the way for continued LTE success across the mobile ecosystem in 2013.
Over the past year, Syniverse conducted a series of end-to-end LTE roaming and interconnect trials with mobile service providers around the globe, during which the company successfully demonstrated roaming capabilities using the many new protocols required for LTE. During the trials Syniverse identified and addressed several challenges for seamless LTE interworking, particularly those focused on the critical areas of signaling, traffic flow and clearing requirements.
These key findings have laid the foundation for commercial LTE roaming to become a reality for many of the world's more than 6 billion mobile subscribers in 2013, according to Jeff Gordon, President and CEO, Syniverse.
“As end users grow accustomed to the speeds of LTE, they will increasingly expect access to the same service experience wherever they travel,” Gordon said. “Syniverse's end-to-end LTE roaming trials have been a critical step to ensure mobile service providers have the real-time experience management capabilities necessary to deliver on these expectations by providing a seamless experience to end users as they roam from one LTE network to another in 2013 and beyond.”
During its LTE roaming trials, Syniverse applied its more than 25 years of experience connecting disparate technologies to help participants overcome several obstacles that could have derailed commercial LTE roaming service, including:
- Validating traffic flow – Syniverse's Real-Time Intelligence tool Visibility® monitored performance of the LTE networks while operators tested with one another, immediately pinpointing issues undetected by standard testing procedures.
- Ensuring device registration – Via its detailed network-performance insight, Syniverse quickly identified re-configuration requirements related to new LTE signaling protocols such as Diameter.
- Complying with new clearing requirements – The trials highlighted the advantages of mobile service providers employing an experienced business partner familiar with the new LTE requirements of session records for clearing and settlement.
For years, Syniverse experts have been working with industry groups and mobile service providers to prepare the ecosystem for the transition to LTE. Syniverse's expertise in the end-to-end LTE roaming process equipped it to quickly address challenges with appropriate solutions during the trials, freeing participants from troubleshooting, so they could efficiently progress their trials to more complex aspects of LTE roaming. The company offers a breadth of LTE interoperability solutions that is unmatched in the industry, and Syniverse can build on its solutions and trial experience to help other players across the mobile ecosystem during their transitions to 4G roaming.
Via its analysis of transactions between mobile service providers worldwide, Syniverse saw global mobile data roaming sessions on 2G and 3G networks jump 40 percent in 2012 over the previous year, illustrating end users' increasing appetite for mobile data anywhere in the world. At the same time, the number of users with access to LTE services also has grown considerably, with global LTE network deployments increasing nearly 600 percent in the past two years to total 128 in 2012 according to Wireless Intelligence.
“The rapidly growing number of LTE networks globally combined with continuous increases in mobile roaming volumes signal heightened demand for LTE roaming,” Gordon said. “We are working to ensure service providers are ready to meet these demands in the near term and well into the future.”
About Syniverse
Syniverse makes mobile work for more than 900 mobile operators, cable and Internet providers, and enterprises in over 160 countries. With unmatched expertise and more than 25 years simplifying the complexities of roaming, messaging and networking, Syniverse serves as the force at the center of the mobile communications universe, keeping people connected today and forging new connections for tomorrow.

The 2019 Word Cup final hero Ben Stokes on Monday made a surprise announcement to retire from the 50-over format, saying playing three formats has become "unsustainable" for him

England's Test coach Brendon McCullum views Ben Stokes' abrupt decision to retire from ODIs as an "absolute positive" but is not sure if this would become a trend for other players, given cricket's taxing schedule. The 2019 Word Cup final hero Ben Stokes on Monday made a surprise announcement to retire from the 50-over format, saying playing three formats has become "unsustainable" for him. "Yeah of course I am," McCullum told SENZ Breakfast when asked if he was happy with Stokes' decision. He was asked if Stokes' move could become a trend for other players around the world. "There are not too many all-format players," the former New Zealand captain said.
"He's probably in a luxurious position that he's able to do that, but also with the demands of the schedules and with his heightened schedule as Test captain, it would've become too much. He also has a young family and there's a lot going on. "I don't know if it's symbolic of where the game itself is at around the globe, but I see it as an absolute positive to be honest. "I'm looking forward to being able to spend even more time with 'Stokesy' trying to get this thing cracking."
It came as a shock to many given his age -- he is only 31 -- but McCullum looked at Stokes one-day retirement differently. "Obviously we would've loved to see Ben Stokes playing in three forms of the game, he's an out and out superstar and we've seen what he's been able to achieve, but sometimes things have to give way and I look at it as a positive that he's going to have the time to really immerse himself in the Test side." Stokes' ODI career will forever be remembered for his Player of-the-Match performance in the World Cup final against New Zealand at the Lord's three years ago.

His unbeaten 84 helped to send the match into a Super Over as England claimed their first 50-over World Cup title in the most thrilling of circumstances. McCullum said, "Stokes is the skipper of our Test side and the job that I've seen him do with this team in a very short period of time really excites me about what he can do with this side, particularly now that he'll have more available time rather than jumping from series to series to series. "I guess England's a slightly different set up to most other world cricket teams because they play a lot of cricket, they're a wanted commodity around the world and they're able to generate such a fan following and also the financial returns that the game requires to support 16 Counties and the big organisation that is English cricket."
Stokes, who succeeded Joe Root's as England's Test captain, scored 2919 runs in 104 ODIs and taken 74 wickets. McCullum was happy that Stokes quit one of the white ball formats to focus on the traditional format. "I also think it's a real mark of respect of the man that he's sort of bucking the trend of the short version of the game and actually trying to focus on what he sees as a huge task trying to get Test cricket back to the levels, or even exceed the levels, that it's had in the past.
"I think it's a noble play from him," McCullum said.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea has warned that the United States and South Korea will face “unprecedented” security challenges if they don’t stop their hostile military pressure campaign against the North, including joint military drills.
North Korea views any regular U.S.-South Korean military training as an invasion rehearsal even though the allies have steadfastly said they have no intention of attacking the North. The latest warning came as Washington and Seoul prepare to expand their upcoming summertime training following the North’s provocative run of missile tests this year.
“Should the U.S. and its allies opt for military confrontation with us, they would be faced with unprecedented instability security-wise,” Choe Jin, deputy director general of the Institute of Disarmament and Peace, a Foreign Ministry-run think tank, told Associated Press Television News in Pyongyang on Thursday.
Choe said that Washington and Seoul’s joint military drills this year are driving the Korean Peninsula to the brink of war. He accused U.S. and South Korean officials of plotting to discuss the deployment of U.S. nuclear strategic assets during another joint drill set to begin next month.
“The U.S. should keep in mind that it will be treated on a footing of equality when it threatens us with nukes,” Choe said. He said Washington must abandon “its anachronistic and suicidal policy of hostility” toward North Korea or it will face “an undesirable consequence.”
The regular U.S.-South Korea military drills are a major source of animosity on the Korean Peninsula, with North Korea often responding with missile tests or warlike rhetoric.
In May, U.S. President Joe Biden and new South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said after their summit that they would consider expanded joint military exercises to deter North Korean nuclear threats. Biden also reaffirmed the American extended deterrence commitment to South Korea, a reference to a full range of U.S. defense capabilities including nuclear ones.
Their announcement reflected a change in direction from that of their predecessors. Former U.S. President Donald Trump complained about the cost of the U.S.-South Korean military drills, while former South Korean President Moon Jae-in faced criticism that his dovish engagement policy only helped North Korea buy time to perfect its weapons technology. Yoon accused Moon of tilting toward North Korea and away from the United States.
The U.S. and South Korean militaries haven’t officially announced details about their summertime drills including exactly when they would start. But South Korean defense officials said the drills would involve field training for the first time since 2018 along with the existing computer-simulated tabletop exercises.
In recent years, the South Korean and U.S. militaries have cancelled or downsized some of their regular exercises due to concerns about COVID-19 and to support now-stalled U.S.-led diplomacy aimed at convincing North Korea to give up its nuclear program in return for economic and political benefits.
The United States has called on North Korea to resume the dormant diplomacy without any preconditions, but North Korea has countered it won’t return to talks unless the United States first drops its hostile policies against it, in an apparent reference to its military drills with South Korea and the economic sanctions.
This year, North Korea has test-launched a slew of ballistic missiles including nuclear-capable ones designed to attack both the U.S. mainland and South Korea in violation of U.N. resolutions banning such tests. Observers say North Korea wants to be recognized as a nuclear state and win sanctions relief.
Choe repeated North Korea's previous position that its missile tests are legitimate exercises of its sovereign right to defend the country. He called the recent U.S. and South Korean missile tests “double-standards.”
North Korea hasn’t yet conducted its widely expected nuclear test, which would be the first of its kind in five years. Seoul officials say an ongoing COVID-19 outbreak and opposition from China, its most important ally and biggest aid provider, are likely the reasons why North Korea hasn’t carried out the bomb test.
On Friday, Yoon told reporters that North Korea remains ready to conduct a nuclear test and that South Korea also has measures ready to cope with it. | https://www.greenwichtime.com/news/article/N-Korea-warns-of-security-instability-over-US-S-17321645.php | 2022-07-22T08:13:18Z | https://www.greenwichtime.com/news/article/N-Korea-warns-of-security-instability-over-US-S-17321645.php | true | 31 |

$100,000 worth of stolen property recovered in a SJ underground bunker
SAN JOSE, Calif. - San Jose police arrested six people who are allegedly involved in a commercial burglary and recovered $100,000 worth of stolen items in an underground bunker, police said.
Among the stolen goods were a lot of power tools, three hunting shotguns, and three pickup trucks, police said.
Officers first received reports about an electrical contractor business being burglarized Monday on South 10th Street in District Lincoln, according to East Bay Times.

Patrolling officers doing a follow-up arrested the suspects later that day after finding them around the truck that was stolen during the burglary, police said.
This arrest led the police to investigate a homeless encampment near Coyote Creek and Wool Creek Dr. on Tuesday where they discovered an underground bunker filled with stolen goods, officials said. All of the items were returned to the owner.

Where is Ronaldo? Ten Hag 'cannot wait' to meet Man Utd star but return date remains a mystery
Erik ten Hag says he cannot wait to welcome Cristiano Ronaldo back into the Manchester United fold but is not sure when the forward will return. Ronaldo has been left out of the squad so far due to personal reasons, while speculation about his future continues to circulate after it was revealed he wanted to leave.
However, Ten Hag has maintained that the 37-year-old will stay at Old Trafford next season and is eager to see how he fits into the team's new playing style.
What has Ten Hag said about Ronaldo?
Asked if he was concerned about the Portugal star's absence and if he knows when he will be back in the team, Ten Hag said: "No, it's the same as last week. Of course [United would like Ronaldo back], concerning is maybe not the right word.
"I focus on the players who are there and they are doing really well. They are in good shape and I have further focus on that and develop that.
"I cannot wait for him to come in and then we will integrate him."
The likes of Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho and Bruno Fernandes have linked up well so far in pre-season and Ronaldo would add further firepower to that attack.
"They connect really good together," Ten Hag said.
"When you see that you are lucky as a manager, we have a threat, we have weapons and we have to improve that every day, to develop that."
Will Ronaldo leave Man Utd?
Ronaldo's future has been in doubt since he expressed his desire to leave the club ahead of the 2022-23 season.
Ten Hag has insisted that Ronaldo is "not for sale", however, and even suggested that he could end up staying at United beyond the end of the coming campaign.
He said: "Yes [he could stay beyond this season], but, to be honest, of course I have signed here for three years, but in football it's short-term as well."

It was apparent right from the outset that Droupadi Murmu, the candidate fielded by the BJP-led NDA, would sweep the presidential election. The 64-year-old tribal leader had the backing of not just the ruling party and its allies, but non-NDA parties too.
Despite concerted efforts by Opposition parties to rally behind their nominee, Yashwant Sinha, fair-weather allies and proclaimed bosom buddies crossed over to back Murmu. True Opposition unity remained a distant dream.
Come Thursday, and Droupadi Murmu claimed a thumping victory over Sinha, securing 64 per cent of the votes polled in the election. With the numbers out for all to see, it has become increasingly clear that MPs and MLAs defied party lines to cross-vote for Murmu.
Apart from 126 MLAs, the winning NDA candidate also received votes from 17 non-NDA MPs.

CROSS-VOTING CHRONICLES
Assam, Jharkhand and Madhya Pradesh assemblies witnessed a significant number of Opposition MLAs voting for the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance's candidate.
Around 22 MLAs in Assam and 20 in Madhya Pradesh assemblies are likely to have cross-voted. Six opposition MLAs each from Bihar and Chhattisgarh, four from Goa and 10 from Gujarat may also have voted for Murmu.
Soon after Droupadi Murmu was declared the winner, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and his Assam counterpart Himanta Biswa Sarma put out messages thanking Opposition MLAs who had voted “according to their conscience”.
Murmu's tribal background appeared to have drawn support from Congress MLAs in Jharkhand too, where the ruling JMM had already announced support to her.
In Maharashtra, where the Eknath Shinde-BJP alliance ousted the Uddhav Thackeray-NCP-Congress coalition from power last month, 16 non-NDA lawmakers cast their votes to Murmu.
In Goa, the ruling BJP and its allies had the support of 25 MLAs, but Murmu polled 28 votes. This led Chief Minister Pramod Sawant to claim that three state legislators from the Opposition side cross-voted in her favour.
The NDA candidate even received an unexpected vote from Kerala, where the state assembly does not have a single BJP legislator. The CPI (M)-led ruling LDF and the Congress-headed UDF opposition front had announced their support to Sinha.
In Meghalaya, seven MLAs cross-voted, while the count stood at two in Punjab.

SHOCK AND ANGER
Mamata Banerjee, the main catalyst in bringing Opposition parties, including the Congress, together ahead of the presidential polls, had to contend with rebellion from within her own party. The BJP has claimed that four TMC MPs and four MLAs cross-voted in Murmu’s favour. Only three votes were counted, the rest were invalid.
Senior Gujarat Congress leader Manish Doshi said the party has learnt of cross-voting happening from within its ranks. An internal probe has been launched and action will be taken against the errant MLAs as deemed fit, he said.
“It is very shocking for us and we are assessing the situation. We have started investigating the matter. Once the investigation is over we will take necessary action,” Doshi added.
Little wonder then, that National Conference leader Omar Abdullah pithily said, “Opposition unity is a bit of a chimera. Ultimately, political parties will do what’s in their own interest and that’s as it should be.”

The Canadian cannabis industry has become a competitive field over the past few years, which doesn’t come as a surprise considering its exponential growth over the same period.
To capture the market share, cannabis companies have been slashing the prices of their products, which had a negative impact on some of the large players within the space, such as Canopy Growth Corp. CGC and Aurora Cannabis Inc. ACB. Year-to-date stocks of both Canadian cannabis giants plunged by 67% and 71%.
In her latest report, Cowen & Co. analyst Vivien Azer revised the sales forecast for several of Canada’s largest cannabis producers, due to a decelerating trend of sales growth seen in the second quarter.
The 21% growth in industry sales over the period has dropped two percentage points year-over-year, representing an improvement compared to the prior quarters, which could mean the market’s potential stabilization.
“While this marks a 2 pt deceleration from 1Q, we note that this deceleration is an improvement from the 4 pt and 13 pt decelerations in 1Q22 and 4Q21, respectively, as category growth stabilizes,” Azer said.
To address the broader industry trends, Azer lowered her price target on Canopy’s stock to CA$3.40 ($2.64) per share from $6.50 as well as on Cronos Group Inc.'s CRON stock to CA$4.30 per share from CA$4.50.
The analyst also cut her revenue estimates for Canopy by 14% to CA$465 million, while raising the revenue expectations for Cronos by 2 % to CA$113 million.
Azer raised her price target on Aurora to CA$2 per share from CA$1.85, attributing it to the company’s potential benefit from higher margins from its medical cannabis business.
Meanwhile, cannabis giants Tilray Brands Inc. TLRY, HEXO Corp. HEXO and Canopy Growth have all reported a year-over-year decrease in retail sales of 39%, 14% and 35% respectively, as compared to Organigram Holdings Inc. OGI OGI.
Canadian Cannabis Producers Dependent On Value Flower
Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Pablo Zuanic pointed out the same in his recent note, adding that Canadian cannabis producers have become dependent on value flower.
Moreover, all big producers including Canopy Growth, Aurora as well as Tilray and OrganiGram reported that value flower accounted for a substantial part of their total recreational cannabis sales, which according to the analyst, doesn’t have to be a bad thing, as long as “companies have the right cost structure."
However, it seems that the five top Canadian LPs in the market share have opted for cost-cutting and are losing market share, except for Organigram, Zuanic pointed out.
The companies that continue to lose share “have prices below the market average and in most cases have also cut prices the most,” he added.
CGC Price Action
Canop Growth's shares traded 3.61% higer at $3.17 per share during the pre-market session on Thursday morning.
ACB Price Action
Aurora's shares traded 0.61% higher at $1.66 per share during the pre-market session on Thursday morning.
CRON Price Action
Cronos' shares traded 0.60% higher at $3.33 per share during the pre-market session on Thursday morning.

Raipur: Chhattisgarh government has asked all public information officers that any information about corruption and human rights violations taking place in law enforcement agencies should be provided to the RTI applicants only after the approval of the State Information Commission (SIC).
The order, issued by the state's general administration department to additional chief secretaries, principal secretaries, secretaries, divisional commissioners, collectors and head of departments, reads that barring sensitive ones, all other information related to Special Branch of Police Headquarters, Chhattisgarh Armed Forces (CAF), Special Branch dealing with Naxalite activities, Anti-Corruption Bureau, C Branch of Home Department, EOW and CID can be shared with the public under the Right to Information (RTI) Act 2005.
Even though the order was issued by the GAD in June this year, complaints against the aforesaid departments not cooperating with the RTI applicants seeking information poured in, making the GAD issue another letter to the public information officers and the first appellate highlighting the dos and don'ts.
It had been observed that all the above-mentioned departments used to refuse to give information directly to the applicant. The SIC said that all the departments of the state come under the purview of RTI.
These departments have been given exemption only in Section 24-4 of the RTI Act, which deals with sensitive and security matters. Information about general information such as establishment, accounting, transfer order and appointment will be given, said Chief Information Officer M K Raut.
When asked about instructions given in the letter regarding corruption and human rights violation cases, Raut said that it is in the Act that the information on corruption and human rights violation cannot be disclosed until the investigation is completed. "We cannot share any information on corruption and human rights violations. It can be disclosed only after the inquiry. Only general information of these departments can be provided under RTI," said Raut.
Questioning the letter of GAD, RTI activist Rakesh Choubey said, "Provisions in the RTI give them the right to seek information on any issue, be it corruption or human rights violation. If there are provisions in the Act on human rights violations and corruption, then why did GAD issue this letter," asked Choubey. This is an attempt to dilute the spirit of RTI, said Choubey. | https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/raipur/corruption-hr-violation-rti-to-need-sic-approval/articleshow/93039145.cms | 2022-07-22T08:41:08Z | https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/raipur/corruption-hr-violation-rti-to-need-sic-approval/articleshow/93039145.cms | true | 1 |
'Bring Patrick home.' Campaign pushes to free deportees locked up in Haitian prison

Immigrant advocate groups have launched a “call to action” urging members to contact state and federal officials to demand freedom for immigrants who have recently been deported to Haiti and thrown into prison in the Caribbean nation.
At least 20 deportees have been jailed upon arrival in the past six months, while police officials demand thousands of dollars from their family members in the United States. The deportees include Patrick Julney, a New Jersey man who was deported June 7 and imprisoned in Port-au-Prince the same day. And a Philadelphia family said their relative, Bergson Morin, who was deported in February, is being held in the same prison.
Detained at the National Penitentiary in Port-au-Prince, they face severe overcrowding, poor sanitation and lack of food and water. They have not been charged, nor seen a judge, the men said.
“[Immigration and Customs Enforcement] deported Patrick and numerous others straight into indefinite detention in Haiti. Please help demand their immediate release!” wrote Movimiento Cosecha, an immigrant advocacy group, in an alert to their members.
“The detentions are illegal under Haitian and international law,” organizers added. “The conditions at the jail are inhumane and life-threatening.”
Activists are calling for action from U.S. Sens. Cory Booker and Robert Menendez — both of whom represent New Jersey and sit on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee — and from officials at Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the Department of Homeland Security and the Haitian Embassy.
Spokespeople for Booker and Menendez — who chairs the Foreign Relations Committee — did not respond to requests for comment about Julney’s case, the detention of other deportees or reports of “extortion” from American families. The Democratic senators have previously spoken against “historic mistreatment of Haitians” and the use of Title 42, a public health order to keep Haitians out of the U.S.
Haitian and U.S. agencies also did not respond to requests for comments.
Human rights groups say it’s inhumane to send people to Haiti because of an ongoing humanitarian crisis there, as well as widespread gang violence and the near-collapse of government institutions — conditions that have worsened since the assassination of Haiti’s president last year and a more recent earthquake.
Conditions are so bad that the prison system, among the most overcrowded in the world, ran out of food earlier this year, and dozens of prisoners have died from malnutrition.
Julney’s case has outraged immigrant advocates who rallied to free him from immigration detention in New Jersey, where he was held for three years after serving a nine-year criminal sentence for drug charges and robbery. Instead, he was deported to a country he does not remember — his parents brought him to the U.S. as a toddler.
Morin, 32, a green card holder in Philadelphia, served about five years for aggravated assault. He came to the U.S. at age 4. He graduated from the Brightwood Career Institute and became an electrician. He is also engaged, he said, through messages shared by his family.
“I want to go to work, have a family, a normal life,” he said.
“I wanted a life too and these people took it away from me,” he said. “Even though they knew it was wrong to deport us to this country. We have no actual government. It’s the gangs that control everything. There’s no nourishment.”
A family member in Haiti has to bring him food daily, or he does not eat, he said.
“Even if I don’t make it out of here alive, at least the world is gonna know,” he said. “Because this right here is not right.”
Keren Tripodi, Morin’s sister-in-law, said she has reached out to elected officials and the White House but received no response. Police in Haiti are asking for money to release him. “They are basically holding them for ransom,” she said.
The Haitian Embassy in Washington and the Ministry of Communications in Haiti did not respond to requests for comment about the situation.
Tripodi said she worries about Morin’s health and safety in jail. “He served his time in the U.S. and they are holding him for no reason … Everyone is stressed out and figuring out how to get him out of there.”

WINCHESTER, Ky. (AP) — The Daniel Boone National Forest is receiving $540,000 from Great American Outdoors Act to update some of its facilities.
A portion of the recently allocated funds will be used at recreation facilities like Barren Fork Horse Camp and Bell Farm Horse Camp in McCreary County, the Forest Service said Thursday in a statement. Crews will replace picnic tables, grills, serving tables and lantern posts.
Some funds will also go to repair legacy trail bridges around the forest, which spans 21 counties in eastern Kentucky.
The federal funding will allow the Daniel Boone National Forest to “provide a better experience for our visitors,” Stearns District Ranger Tim Reed said. | https://www.thehour.com/news/article/Funding-to-help-Forest-Service-update-some-17321710.php | 2022-07-22T08:44:44Z | https://www.thehour.com/news/article/Funding-to-help-Forest-Service-update-some-17321710.php | false | null |
Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh): The general public is not alone troubled by the rising inflation day by day but the central ministers in the BJP government also seem to cry over it.
Recently, Union Minister Faggansingh Kulaste who stopped in Seoni to eat corn during his visit to Mandla was shocked to hear corn was worth Rs 15.
A video of the minister asking for the account book of the corn-seller boy is going viral on social media. Also add, the netizens flooded social media with all sorts of reactions to high inflation.
Union Minister Kulaste on Thursday stopped in Seoni to eat corn. He asked the seller to put salt-lemon on the corn and pack it in the paper. When asked the price, he was shocked to see that three pieces of corn cost him Rs 45.
By the time the boy packed the three corns, Kulaste also asked the boy about his account book as to how he sells the corns, according to the dozen or kilos.
However, during the entire conversation, Kulaste kept smiling and in a way kept trying to test the professional quality of that child.
The minister also shared his experience on Facebook and urged the people to buy things from local farmers and shopkeepers. In his post, he said, "We all should buy food items from our local farmers and small shopkeepers. By which they get employment."

Treacherous heat paired with high humidity is likely to affect millions of Americans through the end of July
By Aya Elamroussi, CNN
Scorching heat compounded by suffocating humidity is expected to persist through the end of the month in many parts of the US, where millions will likely endure temperatures in the triple-digits.
More than 55 million Americans from the West to New England were under either heat warnings or advisories as of early Friday.
“Record-breaking heat is expected over the Northeast US this weekend, while above-average (temperatures) persist in the South Central US,” the Weather Prediction Center wrote Thursday.
The highest temperature recorded Thursday was in Death Valley, California, which hit 122 degrees Fahrenheit, according to preliminary data gathered by the prediction center.
The double-whammy of high temperatures and repressive humidity will push the heat index — what the air feels like — to at least 105 degrees Fahrenheit in many areas, making conditions especially dangerous, the prediction center warned.
The city of Dallas recorded its first heat-related death of the year, a 66-year-old woman who had underlying health conditions, the County Health and Human Services said on Thursday.
In Arizona, officials in Maricopa County, reported that at least 29 people died from heat-related issues since March — the majority of whom were outdoors. It compares with 16 reported deaths during the same period in 2021, the county’s public health department said. Dozens of other deaths are under investigation in the county for heat-related causes.
The dangerous temperatures have pushed state and local leaders to issue heat emergencies and offer resources to vulnerable residents. They are imploring residents to stay hydrated and limit time outdoors as much as possible.
In Philadelphia, officials extended a heat health emergency through Sunday — meaning resources including cooling centers, home visits by special teams and enhanced daytime outreach to people experiencing homelessness will remain available through the weekend.
And in Washington, DC, the mayor also announced a heat emergency effective through Monday morning as temperatures are expected to be 95 degrees or higher. Shelters and cooling centers have also opened to serve those who need them, the mayor said.
The extreme heat in the US has also been mirrored in the deadly condition in Europe, where records have been shattered and the European Forest Fire Information System put 19 European countries on “extreme danger” alerts for wildfires.
Grim weekend ahead
More than 85% of the population — or 275 million Americans — could see high temperatures above 90 degrees over the next week. And at least 60 million people could see high temperatures at or above 100 degrees over the next seven days.
“So far this week, 60 daily high temperature records have been tied/broken as dangerous heat enveloped much of the Nation.” the Weather Prediction Center wrote. “More records are likely to be set over the next week,” it said.
Heat index values — the temperature it feels like when heat is combined with humidity — could top 100 degrees in a number of states through this weekend, particularly in the Midwest, the Southeast and on the East Coast.
The south-central region can expect to see high temperatures in the triple digits every day between Sunday and next Thursday, the prediction center noted.
Daytime temperatures could top 100 degrees Fahrenheit across much of the Southwest, with some areas exceeding 110 degrees, according to the center.
“Overnight lows are likely to remain in the 80s in many spots, providing little nighttime relief,” the center wrote.
High temperatures also threaten livestock
As the high temperatures continue to oppress much of the country, officials are also faced with protecting farmers and their livestock.
In Missouri, the governor declared drought emergency in 53 of the state’s more than 100 counties to allow farmers to use water from state parks. Officials are also considering use the parks to grow hay to help feed the farmers’ animals.
The situation in Texas is so dire that ranchers are running out of water — forcing them to sell their cattle at a rate not seen in more than a decade, according to David Anderson, a livestock economist at Texas A&M University.
The dry, hot conditions are essentially causing grass to die off, severely thinning the pastures where cattle graze, which leaves many ranchers no choice but to send cattle they can’t feed to slaughter.
“A lot of ranchers rely on ponds and tanks that capture rainfall,” Anderson said. “I’ve heard a lot of stories about ranchers running out of water.”

California governor signs gun safety laws focusing on convicted abusers, schools and sale regulations
By Taylor Romine, CNN
California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a set of gun safety bills into law on Thursday that require more regulations on gun sales and dealers within the state as well as increased information sharing between schools and law enforcement agencies.
The state — amid a series of high-profile mass shootings that have spurred a national conversation on gun ownership — has passed multiple new measures this month, including allowing for gun violence victims to file civil suits against companies that manufacture the firearms used in crimes.
One of the eight laws signed on Thursday includes a 10-year prohibition on gun possession if someone is convicted of child abuse or elder abuse, according to a news release from the governor’s office.
Another law now requires schools to share information on child access prevention laws and safe firearm storage, as well as mandating reporting to law enforcement of any threat or perceived threat of a homicidal act.
“California has the toughest gun safety laws in the nation, but none of us can afford to be complacent in tackling the gun violence crisis ravaging our country,” Newsom said in the release, adding that the state will continue to “lead on lifesaving polices that provide a model for action by other states and the nation.”
Additional laws signed focus on dealer and sales regulations, specifically restricting where guns and other parts can be sold.

AIR QUALITY ALERT
Air Quality Alert Message
Relayed by National Weather Service New York NY
410 AM EDT Fri Jul 22 2022
...AIR QUALITY ALERT IN EFFECT FROM 11 AM THIS MORNING TO 11 PM EDT
THIS EVENING...
The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation has
issued an Air Quality Health Advisory for the following counties:
New York, Bronx, Kings, Queens, Richmond, Nassau, Suffolk,
Westchester, Rockland.
from 11 AM to 11 PM EDT Friday.
Air quality levels in outdoor air are predicted to be greater than
an Air Quality Index value of 100 for the pollutant of Ground Level
Ozone. The Air Quality Index, or AQI, was created as an easy way to
correlate levels of different pollutants to one scale. The higher
the AQI value, the greater the health concern.
When pollution levels are elevated, the New York State Department of
Health recommends that individuals consider limiting strenuous
outdoor physical activity to reduce the risk of adverse health
effects. People who may be especially sensitive to the effects of
elevated levels of pollutants include the very young, and those with
preexisting respiratory problems such as asthma or heart disease.
Those with symptoms should consider consulting their personal
physician.
A toll free air quality hotline has been established so New York
residents can stay informed on the air quality situation. The toll
free number is 1 800 5 3 5, 1 3 4 5.

According to Benzinga Pro, during Q1, Martin Midstream Partners MMLP earned $11.48 million, a 6.27% increase from the preceding quarter. Martin Midstream Partners's sales decreased to $279.20 million, a 2.34% change since Q4. In Q4, Martin Midstream Partners earned $10.80 million, whereas sales reached $285.90 million.
What Is ROCE?
Return on Capital Employed is a measure of yearly pre-tax profit relative to capital employed by a business. Changes in earnings and sales indicate shifts in a company's ROCE. A higher ROCE is generally representative of successful growth of a company and is a sign of higher earnings per share in the future. A low or negative ROCE suggests the opposite. In Q1, Martin Midstream Partners posted an ROCE of -0.3%.
Keep in mind, while ROCE is a good measure of a company's recent performance, it is not a highly reliable predictor of a company's earnings or sales in the near future.
ROCE is a powerful metric for comparing the effectiveness of capital allocation for similar companies. A relatively high ROCE shows Martin Midstream Partners is potentially operating at a higher level of efficiency than other companies in its industry. If the company is generating high profits with its current level of capital, some of that money can be reinvested in more capital which will generally lead to higher returns and, ultimately, earnings per share (EPS) growth.
For Martin Midstream Partners, a negative ROCE ratio of -0.3% suggests that management may not be effectively allocating their capital. Effective capital allocation is a positive indicator that a company will achieve more durable success and favorable long-term returns; poor capital allocation can be a leech on the performance of a company over time.
Upcoming Earnings Estimate
Martin Midstream Partners reported Q1 earnings per share at $0.29/share, which beat analyst predictions of $0.28/share.

Jessica Alba goes to therapy with both of her daughters.
The 41-year-old actress has daughters Honor, 14 and Haven, 10, and son Hayes, four with her husband Cash Warren and believes going to family therapy makes her a better parent.
Speaking to Glamour UK, she said: "I went with both of them. And around puberty is when it’s the time I think, for me, with my girls. That’s when they started to sort of shut down and get really like, ‘I don’t want to talk any more.’ And I’m like, ‘We’re not doing this. We’ve got to keep a line of communication here. How can I be a better parent to you? How do you want me to talk to you? Don’t shut me out.’
"First of all, this person [the therapist] has studied human behaviour and they’re good at it. And they have no relation to you so they can be really objective and you create a safe space for your kid to really candidly tell you what’s not working about your parenting. I was like, ‘Look, I’m not perfect. I’m not going to know all the answers, but I want to be a great parent to you. And what you like and don’t is different from what your sister likes and doesn’t like. And I’m going to make mistakes. Here’s a safe space, you can’t get in trouble – let me know what I’m doing wrong, or what you would like me to do differently. Or how do you want me to discipline you when you do screw up? What does that look like for you? And how would you want to be treated so you can still feel like you have your dignity intact?’”
And Jessica insisted that she always tries to learn from her mistakes, whether they are personal or business-related.
The Honest company founder said: "There’s nothing more telling that you’re evolving and that you are getting better as a person in this life. It’s a teaching, it’s a gift. I was like, ‘That is so interesting and so cool that [these are] some of the most successful people I’ve ever met, and we’re all talking about celebrating mistakes!’... because I wouldn’t say the challenges or mistakes were anything other than the opportunity to be better tomorrow.”

Philharmonia Orchestra Announces New Autumn Residency at Cromwell Place
Programmes take inspiration from themes including queer ecology, crosscurrents between Asian and Western art, portraiture and Old Masters.
Following a successful collaboration during London Art Week earlier this month, the Philharmonia and Cromwell Place have announced a residency partnership through the autumn and early 2023.
Following on from the 2022 London Art Week theme of 'Music and Dance', where the Philharmonia performed works in Cromwell Place's iconic Lavery Studio, both organisations are thrilled to announce a series of four concerts across the autumn months of 2022 and a further two concerts in early 2023. The concerts will be held in Cromwell Place's Pavilion Gallery, their largest space, and their historical Lavery Studio, the former studio of prominent British society painter John Lavery (1856-1941).
Zsolt-Tihamér Visontay, Joint Concert Master of the Philharmonia, says 'Our experience at Cromwell Place during London Art Week was unforgettable and we are delighted to continue this partnership. The spaces are fantastic for intimate concerts, the environment is inspirational. It's the convergence of art forms that gives this initiative a unique potency and audiences cannot help but be inspired in turn by the marriage of music and art. We are really looking forward to going back this autumn.'
Says Elizabeth Dellert, Membership & Business Development Director, Cromwell Place, "We so enjoyed collaborating with the Philharmonia to celebrate the launch of London Art Week in July, and are thrilled to welcome back their accomplished musicians through the autumn. Their specially-curated repertoires are conceived to speak to, and interplay with, our own artistic programming, to deliver a uniquely rich and rounded artistic experience.'
Members of the Philharmonia have formed ensembles and selected music to reflect the themes of the changing exhibitions at Cromwell Place:
In September, to accompany MacArthur Park in the Pavilion Gallery, an exhibition exploring transcendence, tenderness and queer ecology through the lens of Donna Summer's 1978 disco arrangement of the seminal song. For this first recital, the Philharmonia will perform Tchaikovsky's String Quartet No. 3. The composer's anguish at not being able to express his sexuality openly gave us some of the most expressive music in the classical repertoire.
October's recital is inspired by a range of exhibitions across Cromwell Place's gallery spaces as part of Asian Art in London. It explores the crosscurrents between East Asian and Western culture, with Debussy's String Quartet, music by Philip Glass taken from his soundtrack to the film Mishima, about Japanese writer Yukio Mishima, and Toru Takemitsu's arrangement of the jazz standard Autumn Leaves.
To coincide with the National Portrait Gallery's 2022 Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize in the Pavilion Gallery in November, the players have chosen Johannes Brahms's Horn Trio. Brahms's choice of violin, piano and horn, the three instruments he learned as a child, and his exploration of different facets of bereavement after the death of his mother, make this something of a musical self-portrait. This is music full of emotion, from deeply-felt grief to the warmth of happy memories.
And in December, string quartets by Mozart and Beethoven create a soundworld fit for exhibitions showcasing works by Old Masters being staged across a range of galleries throughout the Cromwell Place buildings.
Tickets for the Philharmonia Concerts at Cromwell Place are on sale now and can be purchased at cromwellplace.com

Philadelphia 76ers Plot New Arena With No Public Money
Bloomberg News
,(Bloomberg) -- The Philadelphia 76ers professional basketball franchise said it plans to use private money instead of taxpayer dollars to build a $1.3 billion sports and entertainment complex in the city’s downtown.
The team said it aims to complete the project by 2031, when its lease at the aging Wells Fargo Center expires. The complex, with an 18,500-seat arena, would be built atop a public transit hub on what is now part of the Fashion District Philadelphia shopping mall. A website set up by the team to promote the project says it will be “privately funded, no city subsidies.”
The development will be led by David Adelman, a Philadelphia-based entrepreneur, in partnership with Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment, the team’s ownership group created by David Blitzer, a Blackstone Inc. senior managing director, and Josh Harris, a co-founder of Apollo Global Management Inc. Harris is the team’s managing partner and Blitzer is co-managing partner.
“We’re excited for the opportunity to build the future home of the 76ers in Center City,” Blitzer said in a statement.
The 76ers are the latest team to promise private financing instead of taxpayer dollars to build stadiums or arenas for professional sports teams. The $5.5 billion SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles was entirely privately financed and the Oakland Athletics have said they would foot the cost for their vision for a new ballpark, though the city may provide funds for related infrastructure.
Still, some teams continue to use public money: The Buffalo Bills recently received a $600 million subsidy from New York under a budget deal this year, while also getting $250 million from Erie County.
The 26-year-old Wells Fargo Center is also home to the National Hockey League’s Philadelphia Flyers.

Power from Hell Premiere New Track "Primordial Impurity" From Upcoming New Album "Shadows Devouring Light"
Black metal outfit Power from Hell premiere a new song entitled “Primordial Impurity”, taken from their upcoming new album "Shadows Devouring Light", which will be released via Debemur Morti Productions on September 30th, 2022.
Check out now "Primordial Impurity" streaming via YouTube for you below.
Explains vocalist Sodomic:
“The lyrics are about the eternal human conflict between the sacred and the forbidden in the context of sexual acts, thoughts, and desires. These were seen throughout our history as something heinous by many cultures, people, civilizations and, of course, by most religious doctrines. Many times, this was, of course, purely hypocritical since history documents unspeakable sexual acts and sexual crimes in the name of some ‘gods.’
“That kind of sexual rebelliousness imprinted in our DNA is still one of the things that most strongly bothers some people and spreads absolute horror. This theme has haunted humans for millennia. Therefore, here I make a parallel with the parable of the original sin used as a backdrop to describe that from the moment the forbidden fruit is eaten, all human misfortunes, internal and external, begin. I regard it as the first act of absolute impurity, or in other words, the primordial impurity.
“The profane feminine is also addressed here in the archetype of the filthy woman, the one who came into this world only to corrupt men, from Eve to Jezebel to the daughters and wives of ‘god’s ministers.’ There are only two things that never sleep in this world, evil and lust, and therein lies the relationship with the album title: the shadow of desire that never sleeps and is often utterly impure, stalks humans and is able to devour the last spark of an individual’s light.”

TUI cancels more flights to holiday hotspot until August
TUI has been forced to cancel more flights until August 15 due to ongoing unrest in a popular holiday destination.
Sri Lanka remains on the UK's travel ban list, resulting in the tour operator having to cancel more holidays.
TUI said in a statement on their website: "Due to the ongoing political and economic instability in Sri Lanka, the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) have advised against all but essential travel.
"As a result, we’ve unfortunately had to cancel all holidays to Sri Lanka departing up to and including 15 August 2022.
"We will be proactively contacting all impacted customers in departure date order to discuss their options."
TUI confirmed that passengers transiting through Sri Lanka would not be affected by the flight cancellations.

Spain holiday warning as Brits face 'hundreds of summer flight cancellations'
The tour operator has been forced to cancel the trips for weeks, and said they will "continue to monitor the situation".
The UK government has put Sri Lanka back on the travel ban list, stating: "The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) advises against all but essential travel to Sri Lanka, due to the impact of the current economic crisis."
The current crisis has been caused by a number of factors, including a drop in tourism during the Covid pandemic, as well as huge tax cuts and massive debts to other countries such as China, while protests started following a 13-hour daily power cut introduced back in March to save energy.
Sri Lanka was placed onto the travel ban list earlier this year, only for the UK government to lift the restrictions last month.

The cancellations are yet another blow for Brits wanting to go on holiday this summer.
Ryanair, easyJet and British Airways are amongst the most popular airlines to cancel flights this summer.

Their final strike this month will take place from July 25 to July 28.
EasyJet staff are also planning a strike from from July 29 till July 31, affecting Barcelona, Majorca and Malaga.
And until October, British Airways has cancelled up to 16,000 while a further 650 cancellations will be affecting about 100,000 passengers. | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/travel/9195882/tui-cancels-more-flights-august/ | 2022-07-22T09:15:49Z | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/travel/9195882/tui-cancels-more-flights-august/ | true | 3 |

Trump fires off barrage of furious messages after Jan 6 hearing reveals damning evidence of his inaction
Trump calls Liz Cheney ‘sanctimonious loser’ and Jake Tapper ‘Fake Tapper’
Donald Trump used his Truth Social app to let out his anger after the Jan 6 committee’s latest public hearing on Thursday revealed further damning evidence of the former president’s inaction during the Capitol riots.
An angry barrage of posts from his Truth Social account has attacked the usual suspects of those who have questioned him or are opposed to his politics.
Nancy Pelosi, Jake Tapper, Liz Cheney and Hillary Clinton were not spared by Mr Trump’s social media spree on Thursday.
Attacking CNN’s Tapper, he wrote: “Fake [sic] Tapper is so biased and pathetic. No wonder CNN’s ratings are at an all-time low. P.S. Almost all Trump Endorsed candidates have won, or are winning.”
Pivoting to Ms Cheney, the former president blasted her as “a sanctimonious loser”.
“The Great State of Wyoming is wise to her. Why not show the tapes, or interview, those that, with evidence, challenge the election?”
He also came after the Jan 6 committee, writing: “So many lies and misrepresentations by the corrupt and highly partisan Unselect Committee.”
“But crooked Hillary Clinton, Stacy Abrams, and many others, contested their Elections - and for a far longer time than I,” Mr Trump said in another post.
On Thursday, the committee held its latest public hearing into its investigation of the insurrection.
Mr Trump may have been the “sole person” with the power to stop the invasion, a committee aide told reporters and said that “he chose not to”.
The panel drilled down on Mr Trump’s inaction during a crucial 187-minute gap between the end of his pre-riot rally near the White House and his eventual Twitter call for the mob to go home.
Meanwhile, Republican representative Adam Kinzinger said Mr Trump’s conduct on Jan 6 was “a stain on our history.”
Mr Kinzinger said “for three hours he refused to call off the attack. Donald Trump refused to take the urgent advice he received that day... from his own family, his own friends, his own staff, and his own advisors.”

TAIPEI - Taiwanese singer Jimmy Lin and his son were injured in a traffic accident in Taiwan's Taoyuan city on Friday (July 22).
According to the Taiwanese media, the 47-year-old, was driving a white Tesla when the car was believed to have hit the road divider and caught fire.
Lin and his son were pulled out of the car by bystanders before the car burst into flames. Eye-witnesses said Lin's face was covered with blood and his arm appeared to have been dislocated.
There were no visible injuries on his son, who seemed to be in a shock after the accident.
Nicknamed The Little Whirlwind by the media when he made his debut in 1992, Lin was a teen heart-throb, who is known for songs such as Summer Of '92, Not Every Love Song Has Fond Memories and Why Am I Always Hurt. He is married to former model-actress Kelly Chen, 38.
They have three sons - 12-year-old Kimi and six-year-old twins Jenson and Kyson.
According to Taiwan's Apple Daily, Jenson was in the car with Lin when the accident took place. Lin's wife and family have been spotted at the hospital where he is warded.
The Taoyuan Fire Department said the accident took place at 10.51 am on Friday and that the two victims were not seriously injured.
It said the man complained of pains in his left and right shoulders, while the boy had pain in his chest and neck, with signs of contusion on his chest.
The Taiwanese police said that according to traffic cameras, Lin was not speeding when he made the turn. A blood alcohol test showed he was not drinking before the accident.
Lin, who is known to love car racing, took part in his first car race in 1997 and formed his first racing team in 2006.
He also named his sons Kimi and Jenson after Kimi Raikkonen, who retired at the end of he Formula One (F1) season in 2021, and former F1 driver Jenson Button. | https://www.straitstimes.com/life/entertainment/taiwanese-singer-jimmy-lin-injured-in-traffic-accident | 2022-07-22T09:23:42Z | https://www.straitstimes.com/life/entertainment/taiwanese-singer-jimmy-lin-injured-in-traffic-accident | true | 1 |
Erik Ten Hag Not Yet Concerned About Cristiano Ronaldo’s Absence At Manchester United
Erik Ten Hag has been speaking to the media about Manchester United’s next pre season game against Aston Villa on Saturday however Cristiano Ronaldo’s situation was of course mentioned to the boss.
Ronaldo has been away from the United squad for some time and has not returned to any training surrounding the squad and of course has not embarked on the clubs pre season tour.
Ronaldo has been surrounded by speculation over his future and has been linked with moves to a number of European giants who have seemingly rejected his services.
The striker is United’s top earning player and is on a wage package at the club that not any others can afford.
However it seems to remain unclear where Ronaldo’s future lies ahead of the 22/23 season that continues to get closer.
Ten Hag is focusing on the squad that he has to hand at the moment with the players in his camp in Australia being the ones he will be focusing on.
When speaking to the media on Thursday, Ten Hag was asked if he was concerned about Ronaldo’s absence to which he said;
“Of course. But concerning is maybe not right word. I focus on the players who are there, they are doing really well, I prefer to develop that. I cannot wait for him to come in, then we'll integrate him."

MoltyFoam’s New Campaign is a Superb Example of Responsible Marketing in 2022
Master MoltyFoam recently launched a campaign called “Mashaadi”. The campaign itself is a depiction of the most common stigma in our society; domestic violence.
The narrative revolves around the instilled fear in the hearts of women about “log kya kahain gay”. It shows trauma triggered through abuse in the middle of happiness and festivities, the entitlement of a woman to not seem indecisive and shaky with her life is an immense responsibility. MoltyFoam gave such incidents its own platform, a campaign that fuels bravery and courage of a woman as an individual, to right all the wrongs even if they are considered a dishonor in society, whilst they shouldn’t be.
The societal norm depictions go throughout the campaign and we would specifically like to raise a round of applause for Master MoltyFoam’s team to come up with an ideal campaign to spread awareness about a matter that has been covered up to be ‘trivial’. Molty foam wants the consumers to perceive the message that it may cost a woman their sanity and happiness if she feels the pressure to not take an initiative against all odds of societal stigmas. Furthermore, MoltyFoam encourages the audience to have an equal regard for daughters and sisters.
The DVC has promoted a valuable lesson for the society which is to stand beside your children and not with society, to fix situations as it is never too late to do the right thing. This also encourages the viewer to keep their family’s well-being over all any societal pressures. Moreover, MoltyFoam also highlights the significance of the impact of internal unities within families. | https://nation.com.pk/2022/07/22/moltyfoams-new-campaign-is-a-superb-example-of-responsible-marketing-in-2022/ | 2022-07-22T09:26:24Z | https://nation.com.pk/2022/07/22/moltyfoams-new-campaign-is-a-superb-example-of-responsible-marketing-in-2022/ | false | 1 |

The resumption of gas flows via the Nord Stream 1 pipeline to Germany ended a nerve-jangling 10 days for Europe in which politicians expressed concern Russia might keep it shut altogether after closing it for repairs.
KHARKIV: Russia reopened its biggest gas pipeline to Germany at less than half normal capacity on Thursday after a maintenance shutdown, raising worries of European energy shortages to come.
The resumption of gas flows via the Nord Stream 1 pipeline to Germany ended a nerve-jangling 10 days for Europe in which politicians expressed concern Russia might keep it shut altogether after closing it for repairs. But with the flows still cut back, Germany’s economy minister Robert Habeck accused Russia of blackmailing Europe over energy.
The Kremlin denied that and blamed Europe for causing disruption with sanctions which had complicated the pipeline’s maintenance. Nearly five months since Russia invaded Ukraine, the prospect of a disruption of European energy supplies is one of the biggest global economic and political risks arising from the war. European countries fear they could face shortages next winter, if Russia cuts back deliveries during warm months when they typically replenish storage tanks.
“(President Vladimir) Putin’s goal is to unsettle, drive up prices, divide society and to weaken support for Ukraine,” Habeck said. “We don’t bow to it but counteract this with concentrated and consistent action. We take precautions so that we can get through the winter. ” Germany unveiled measures to reduce gas demand, including suspending minimum temperature requirements in apartment rental contracts, and dipping into Germany’s coal reserves. Nord Stream 1 has traditionally carried more than a third of Russia’s gas exports to Europe.
“In view of the missing 60 per cent and the political instability, there is no reason yet to give the all-clear,” said Klaus Mueller, president of Germany’s network regulator.
Unified in the purpose of increasing the usage and capacity of renewable energy sources in the country, the state-run corporations teamed up for setting up renewable energy-based power plants for Indian Oil refineries, it stated.
While contracts for oilfields awarded since 1999 gave producers the freedom to sell oil, the government fixed buyers for crude produced from older fields, such as Mumbai High of ONGC and Ravva of Vedanta. | https://energy.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/oil-and-gas/russia-resumes-gas-flow-to-germany-with-cutback/93046814 | 2022-07-22T09:29:41Z | https://energy.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/oil-and-gas/russia-resumes-gas-flow-to-germany-with-cutback/93046814 | false | 1 |
The Bees Knees Pre-Loved Boutique on Watnall Road first opened its doors in August 2020 and has survived through more lockdowns since to bang the drum for small shops in the town today.
Owned and run by mother and daughter Jane and Emma Webster, the shop is an Aladdin’s Cave of clothes, gifts and trinkets.
Jane said: “We’ve both always had too many clothes and we’d always talked about something like having a shop.
"Previously, we always used to sell old clothes through flea markets, or on Facebook, and then we thought we could turn that into a business.
"The lady who had this shop was retiring and we got in there first, put the deposit down and that was it.
"We got the keys on March 4, 2020 just before the first lockdown but it didn’t matter because the shop needed doing up – nothing had been done to it for about 10 years.
"All the time we were shut though, the landlord at the time still charged us full rent.
"The ceiling fell down three times and he wouldn’t fix it and then he presented us with a bill for £1,500 because the electrics weren’t safe.
"We did sit in the shop and cry at times but thankfully we’ve now got new landlords, who are lovely and made time for us, and we finally opened on August 23, 2020.”
The shop sells second-hand clothing, samples, chain store seconds and homemade gifts, as well accepting clothing donations.
But Jane and Emma use their shop for more than just selling items.
The pair regularly pass on clothing donations to support the charity Sharewear and the Hucknall branch of the Salvation Army.
They have also use part of their profits in to buy items for charities, community groups or supporting things like the cleft pallet ward at the Queen’s Medical Centre.
On their Facebook page, they also ask people to nominate groups to help and they then use more of their profits to buy items for the chosen cause.
But now, after the lockdowns and amid the current cost of living crisis, Jane and Emma are appealing to the public to discover there is more to shops in Hucknall than just the High Street and help them keep supporting charities and good causes.
Jane said: “Since the last lockdown, the footfall has dropped off because people have got no money.
“Although it’s not long we’ve had the shop, even we’ve noticed that ever since they pedestrianised the High Street, Watnall Road, Annesley Road and Portland Road seem to be almost segregated.
"We seem to be cut off from the High Street and we don’t feel included.
“It feels like we’re almost not part of the same town.
"We businesses all try and support each other and those like us who are slightly off the beaten track feel exactly the same way as we do.
“So we just want to put it out there that we are here and want people to come and try our shop and the others that are in the town, just not on the High Street.” | https://www.hucknalldispatch.co.uk/news/people/hucknall-small-business-owners-urging-people-to-explore-towns-hidden-gems-off-the-high-street-3777916 | 2022-07-22T09:33:28Z | https://www.hucknalldispatch.co.uk/news/people/hucknall-small-business-owners-urging-people-to-explore-towns-hidden-gems-off-the-high-street-3777916 | false | 1 |
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Taurean Blacque, an Emmy-nominated actor who was known for his role as a detective on the 1980s NBC drama series “Hill Street Blues,” has died. He was 82.
Blacque’s family announced in a statement Thursday that Blaque died in Atlanta following a brief illness.
The New Jersey-native began his acting career at the Negro Ensemble Company in New York. His training at the institute helped him secure guest roles on television series including “Sanford and Son,” “What’s Happening,” “Good Times,” “Taxi” and “The Bob New Hart Show.”
Blacque’s biggest breakthrough came when he joined the cast of critically acclaimed show “Hill Street Blues,” where he portrayed the streetwise detective Neal Washington during the show’s entire run between 1981-1987. He earned an Emmy nomination for best supporting actor in a drama series in 1981.
Blacque starred with Vivica Fox on the NBC soap opera “Generations,” which touched on the integration of two families – one Black and another white. He became active with the Atlanta Black Theater Company and the Black Theater Festival in North Carolina.
Blacque had two biological sons and adopted 11 children and was the spokesman for the county of Los Angeles Adoption Service.
In 1989, Blacque was asked by President George H.W. Bush to become the national spokesperson for adoption. He was survived by 12 children, 18 grandchildren and two great-great grandchildren. The exact cause of death was not disclosed by his family. | https://www.wnct.com/entertainment-news/taurean-blacque-actor-on-hill-street-blues-dead-at-82/ | 2022-07-22T09:33:55Z | https://www.wnct.com/entertainment-news/taurean-blacque-actor-on-hill-street-blues-dead-at-82/ | true | 33 |

Penelope Featherington, played by Nicola Coughlan, appears ready to step into the spotlight in this glimpse at production for season three of Bridgerton.
A teaser video announcing the start of season three's production gave a glimpse at Penelope’s transformation into a striking beauty. That's not to say Penelope wasn't lovely before, but the footage released July 20 showed Nicola Coughlan, who plays Penelope, with a stunning updo and jaw-dropping makeup.
The sweeping bangs and the smoky eye is not what is normally see on the soft-spoken Featherington daughter. This transformation isn't necessarily a surprise for fans of the Bridgerton books, as Romancing Mister Bridgerton—the Julia Quinn novel that inspired this season—introduces a new look for Penelope.
In fact, Nicola told E! News in May that season three will be "a lot different." Namely, viewers will watch as her character "finally becomes a woman in season three and comes into herself." | https://www.geo.tv/latest/429144-first-look-at-penelopes-glow-up-in-season-3-of-bridgerton | 2022-07-22T09:38:23Z | https://www.geo.tv/latest/429144-first-look-at-penelopes-glow-up-in-season-3-of-bridgerton | false | 1 |
LISBON, Portugal (AP) — Major wildfires in Europe are starting earlier in the year, becoming more frequent, doing more damage and getting harder to stop.
And, scientists say, they’re probably going to get worse as climate change intensifies unless countermeasures are taken.
A mass migration of Europeans from the countryside to cities in recent decades has left neglected woodland at the mercy of the droughts and heat waves that are increasingly common amid global warming. One tiny spark can unleash an inferno.
Fighting forest fires in Europe has never been so hard. Here’s why:
___
WHAT’S CAUSING EUROPE’S WILDFIRES?
The continent’s so-called rural exodus since the second half of the last century, as Europeans moved to cities in search of a better life, has left significant areas of countryside neglected and vulnerable.
Woodland is littered with combustible material, says Johann Goldammer, head of the Global Fire Monitoring Center, an advisory body to the United Nations. That includes things like dead tree trunks and fallen branches, dead leaves and desiccated grass.
“This is why we have unprecedented wildfire risk: because never before in history — say, the last 1,000 or 2,000 years — has there been so much flammable material around,” he said.
He adds: “The landscape is getting explosive.”
Carelessness with naked flames is often enough to ignite a wildfire. In Portugal, where more than 100 people died in wildfires in 2017, authorities say 62% of outbreaks stem from farming activities such as burning stubble.
___
IS GLOBAL WARMING A FACTOR IN THE WILDFIRES?
Climate change has added a scary new dimension to wildfires and made them more menacing.
That is especially true in southern Europe, where the increasing occurrence of fire weather conditions — high temperatures, drought and high winds — make summer wildfires “the new norm,” says Friederike Otto, Senior Lecturer in Climate Science at the Grantham Institute for Climate Change at Imperial College London.
The European Union noted this month that over the past five years the bloc has witnessed its most intense wildfires on record and that the continent’s current drought could become its worst ever. The Mediterranean region is warming 20% faster than the global average, according to the U.N..
EU fire statistics bear witness to the problem. The amount of burned European countryside has more than tripled this year, with almost 450,000 hectares charred through July 16, compared with a 2006-2021 average of 110,000 hectares in those same months.
By that same date, Europe had witnessed almost 1,900 wildfires compared with an average of 470 for the 2006-2021 period.
___
ARE WILDFIRES DIFFERENT NOW?
The droughts and heat waves tied to climate change have made wildfires harder to fight, as conditions make it easier for them to spread quickly. Scientists say climate change will continue to make weather more extreme and wildfires more frequent and destructive.
That includes instances of so-called “megafires” — blazes so big they are virtually unstoppable.
Spain’s wildfire problems this year began with the arrival in spring of the country’s earliest heat wave in two decades. Temperatures rose above 40 C (104 F) in many Spanish cities — levels traditionally seen in high summer.
Neighboring Portugal also saw its warmest May in nine decades, when 97% of the land was classified as being in severe drought. In France, it was the hottest May on record.
“We will not be able to completely prevent wildfires,” says Otto of Imperial College. “We have to learn to live with this.”
___
HOW DO WE COEXIST WITH MORE WILDFIRES?
Scientists say there is no need to lose hope, despite the images of terrifying walls of flame and overwhelmed fire services.
“This is not an act of god,” Otto says of the more frequent wildfires. “This is, to a large degree, our doing and we have quite a lot of (power) to do something about it.”
Things we can do to adapt include putting an end to the burning of fossil fuels and educating people about global warming, she says.
Forest management also needs to be reviewed, says Amila Meskin, a policy adviser at the Brussels-based European State Forest Association, which represents governments’ forest companies, enterprises and agencies in 25 European countries.
Projects such as water retention schemes, mixing forest species and the restoration of peat lands are already happening in some places.
The effects are unlikely to be seen soon, however. Short-term planning in forestry can stretch over 50 years, and fundamental change will take decades.
More broadly, Meskin sees a general lack of interest in rural jobs and notes that forestry is not a fashionable business. Those sentiments need to be reversed, but that’s a big ask.
Maybe, she says, the shock of the wildfires will generate renewed public interest in forest care.
“It’s a very emotional thing to see forests burn,” Meskin said. “It’s such a sad, sad, sad situation.”

“We need a change and we are the change," protester Nilu told the AFP after the demonstration against the corrupt regime in Sri Lanka reached its 100th day on July 17. The movement has forced one president from office, and the world is keenly watching if it will turn its sights on his successor as the country’s economic crisis continues.
Gotabaya Rajapaksa fled his palace shortly before demonstrators invaded it last weekend and on Thursday resigned from the presidency. His mismanagement is blamed for Sri Lanka’s financial turmoil, which has forced its 22 million people to endure shortages of food, fuel and medicines since late last year.
The campaign to oust Rajapaksa, organised mainly through posts on Facebook, Twitter and TikTok, drew people from across Sri Lanka’s often unbridgeable ethnic divides. United by economic hardships, minority Tamils and Muslims joined the majority Sinhalese to demand the ouster of the once-powerful Rajapaksa clan.
It began as a two-day protest on April 9, when tens of thousands of people set up camp in front of Rajapaksa’s office — a crowd so much larger than the organisers’ expectations that they decided to stay on. And a word used to describe the faceless movement - Aragalaya - may be the best way to describe it. News18 explains what it means:
What Is Aragalaya?
The Sinhalese word for “struggle," aragalaya, is widely used to describe the daily gathering of people at Colombo’s Galle Face Green, which began with the demand that Gotabaya resign as President and make way for a new dispensation, according to reports.
In its most basic sense, aragalaya also captures the daily struggle of individual Sri Lankans to find food, fuel, and medicines, uniting them all in a “janatha aragalaya" — a people’s struggle, a report by the Indian Express states. It has largely been devoid of a leader, though some individuals have spoken on behalf of the group on occasion. It also communicated through social media.
Is the Aragalaya Happy With Ranil?
After Ranil’s crackdown on the protests at Galle Face, the Aragalaya spoke out - and alleged the new PM is planning a brutal State repression to end the demonstrations.
And some sections of the movement— which drew participation from students to professionals, trade unions to the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna — have signalled that they will not accept a leader who defends the status quo, the IE report stated. The aragalaya rejects Ranil Wickremesinghe, new President, as he belongs to an ‘ancient regime’.
They Helped Rally Support
A Reuters report - How a band of activists helped bring down Sri Lanka’s government - reports how Aragalaya members reached out directly to opposition political parties, trade unions and student unions, including the influential Inter University Students’ Federation (IUSF), in order to bolster support.
The Aragalaya group also asked volunteers to visit thousands of homes across parts of Colombo, including middle-class government housing estates, some within walking distance of the main protest site.
“I think it is the most unprecedented gathering in this country. Full stop," Ruwanthie de Chickera, a playwright who is part of the core group of Aragalaya activists, had told Reuters.
