MOSCOW (AP) — Are robots already starting to turn on humans?
A chess-playing robot grabbed the finger of its seven-year-old opponent and broke it during last week's Moscow Chess Open tournament, Russian media reported Monday.
“The robot broke the child’s finger,” Sergei Lazarev, President of the Moscow Chess Federation, told the Russian TASS agency. “Of course, this is bad.”
A video shared on social media shows the robot taking one of the boy’s pieces, and then grabbing his finger as he attempts to make a move.
Four adults then rush in, struggling to free the boy before leading him away from the chessboard.
Lazarev said the chess federation had rented the robot that appeared in many previous events without incident.
He said the boy was able to play again the next day and finished the tournament with his finger in a cast. | https://www.thehour.com/news/article/Chess-playing-robot-breaks-child-s-finger-at-17327426.php | 2022-07-25T17:48:43Z | https://www.thehour.com/news/article/Chess-playing-robot-breaks-child-s-finger-at-17327426.php | true | null |
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu on Monday asked federal officials who track, monitor and respond to white supremacist groups to provide additional assistance to city law enforcement as neo-Nazi organizations increase demonstrations across the city.
Over the past several months, members of Patriot Front and Nationalist Social Club (NSC-131) have held marches and demonstrations throughout Boston, including a roughly 100-person action earlier this month where Patriot Front members walked through the downtown with flags and shields.
The increased activity — NSC-131 members gathered and clashed over the weekend in Jamaica Plain — has drawn commendations from public officials at all levels of Massachusetts government. In response, Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden plans to hire more civil rights prosecutors, while U.S. District Attorney Rachael Rollins is looking to launch a tip line where people can submit info on the groups. | https://www.masslive.com/boston/2022/07/as-white-nationalist-actions-continue-in-boston-mayor-michelle-wu-asks-for-help-from-federal-officials.html | 2022-07-25T17:49:00Z | https://www.masslive.com/boston/2022/07/as-white-nationalist-actions-continue-in-boston-mayor-michelle-wu-asks-for-help-from-federal-officials.html | false | 1 |

France’s Macron heads to Africa for three-nation trip
PARIS (AP) — French President Emmanuel Macron is traveling to Cameroon, Benin and Guinea-Bissau. The four-day visit is the French leader’s first diplomatic trip outside of Europe since winning his new mandate, showing how Africa is high on the list of priorities for the former African colonial power. On the agenda will be common challenges such as the fight against terrorism and combating climate change. But Macron will also discuss the consequences of the conflict in Ukraine, such as ballooning inflation and the cost of living and a likely food crisis due to halts on Ukraine’s key food exports. | https://keyt.com/news/2022/07/25/frances-macron-heads-to-africa-for-three-nation-trip/ | 2022-07-25T17:51:00Z | https://keyt.com/news/2022/07/25/frances-macron-heads-to-africa-for-three-nation-trip/ | false | null |
VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — Canadian police reported multiple shootings of homeless people Monday in a Vancouver suburb and said a suspect was in custody.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said most of the shootings were in downtown Langley. One reported shooting was in neighboring Langley Township.
Police Sgt. Rebecca Parslow said she had no immediate details on the victims' conditions.
Mounties issued a cellphone alert about 6:30 a.m., telling people to avoid the area.
Police closed off a main route through the center of the city. Authorities later issued a cellphone alert saying the suspect was in custody.
Authorities initially said they were unsure if the shooter acted alone. But police later said the man in custody is believed to be solely responsible.
A homicide team confirmed on social media that its investigators deployed to Langley to help the mounted police.
Yellow police tape surrounded a sandwich shop and a parking lot in Langley at the scene of one of the shootings. A black tent was set up over one of the crime scenes.
Langley is about 30 miles (48 kilometers) southeast of Vancouver.
Mass shootings are less common in Canada than in the United States. The deadliest gun rampage in Canadian history happened in 2020 when a man disguised as a police officer shot people in their homes and set fires across the province of Nova Scotia, killing 22 people.
The country overhauled its gun-control laws after an attacker named Marc Lepine killed 14 women and himself in 1989 at Montreal’s Ecole Polytechnique college.
It is now illegal to possess an unregistered handgun or any kind of rapid-fire weapon in Canada. To purchase a weapon, the country also requires training, a personal risk assessment, two references, spousal notification and criminal record checks. | https://www.ajc.com/news/nation-world/police-report-shootings-of-homeless-people-near-vancouver/MPI2CAGPDBAKXFSTOISE3ELU64/ | 2022-07-25T17:51:30Z | https://www.ajc.com/news/nation-world/police-report-shootings-of-homeless-people-near-vancouver/MPI2CAGPDBAKXFSTOISE3ELU64/ | true | 23 |

Study: Millennials didn’t stray far from where they grew up
By MIKE SCHNEIDER
Associated Press
Growing up in mid-sized Virginia Beach, Andrew Waldholtz wanted to live in a big city so he moved to the District of Columbia for college. After four years in the comparatively expensive city, he realized he wanted a place to live that was more affordable.
Waldholtz, 35, eventually found a happy compromise in St. Louis whose Midwestern affordability and opportunities to build his career in corporate compliance had the added bonus that his sister and brother-in-law lived there.
Now living 940 miles (1,513 kilometers) away from Virginia Beach, Waldholtz is in a distinct minority among others who reached adulthood in the 21st century in that he resides a half-continent away from where he grew up, according to a new study by U.S. Census Bureau and Harvard University researchers released Monday.
The study found that by age 26 more than two-thirds of young adults in the U.S. lived in the same area where they grew up, 80% had moved less than 100 miles (161 kilometers) away and 90% resided less than 500 miles (804 kilometers) away. Migration distances were shorter for Black and Hispanic individuals, compared to white and Asian young adults, and the children of higher income parents traveled farther away from their hometowns than those of less wealthy parents, according to the study.
“For many individuals, the ‘radius of economic opportunity’ is quite narrow,” the report said.
Young adulthood is a period in life when migration is highest in the U.S. The study looked at the likelihood of people born primarily between 1984 and 1992 moving away from the commuting zone they grew up in. Commuting zones are made up of one or more counties that reflect a local labor market, and there are more than 700 commuting zones in the U.S. The birth range in the study overlaps the generation typically referred to as millennials.
It turns out that the most common destinations for young adults were concentrated near where they grew up, said the study which utilized decennial census, survey and tax data.
For instance, three quarters of people who grew up in the Chicago area stayed there. Rockford was the top destination for people who moved away and stayed in Illinois but only represented less than 1% of the young adults from Chicago. Los Angeles was the top destination for those who moved out of state but that accounted for only 1.1% of young adults from Chicago, according to an interactive data tool that accompanies the study.
Where young adults moved to varied by race.
Atlanta was the most popular destination for young Black adults moving away from their hometowns, followed by Houston and Washington. Young Black adults who grew up in high-income households were multiple times more likely to move to these cities in a “New Great Migration” than those from low-income families, according to the study.
For white adults leaving their hometowns, New York, Los Angeles, Washington and Denver were the most population destinations. Los Angeles and New York were the top two destinations for Asians and Hispanic young adults. San Antonio and Phoenix also were popular with Hispanics, while San Francisco also appealed to Asian young adults.
Despite the region’s economic woes and the prospect of job opportunities elsewhere, young adults in Appalachia were less likely to move far from their hometowns compared to those of similar incomes living elsewhere, the report said.
The reluctance of millennials to move far away is backed up by recent studies showing declines in mobility in the U.S. for the overall population. In the middle of the last century, about a fifth of U.S. residents, not just young adults, moved each year. That figure has dropped steadily since the 1950s, going from about 20% to 8.4% last year, due to an aging population, dual-income households that make it more difficult to pick up and move and, more recently, the pandemic, according to a recent report from Brookings.
A Pew Research Center survey released last week showed that a quarter of U.S. adults ages 25 to 34 resided in a multigenerational family household in 2021, up from 9% in 1971. The age groups in the Pew study and the study by the Census Bureau and Harvard University researchers overlap to some degree.
When there were wage gains in a local labor market, most of the benefits went to residents who grew up within 100 miles (161 kilometers) rather than people who had migrated to the area. Wage increases’ effect on migration to an area was rather small, and migrants likely would have moved there regardless of wage hikes. Young Black adults were less likely to move to a place because of wage hikes compared to white and Hispanic millennials, said the study released Monday.
Waldholtz, who is white, graduated into the recession in 2008 and went back to Virginia Beach for work. “Probably the worst time ever to be looking for a job,” he said. He eventually went to law school in Ohio and prioritized work opportunities when deciding where to live after graduation three years later.
“All of us need a job to pay our bills,” Waldholtz said. “That factor has to be the most important factor.”

OSHKOSH, Wis., July 25, 2022
OSHKOSH, Wis., July 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Boeing's [NYSE: BA] 2022 Pilot and Technician Outlook (PTO) forecasts demand for 2.1 million new aviation personnel over the next 20 years to safely support the recovery in commercial air travel and meet rising long-term growth.
The long-term forecast shows that 602,000 pilots, 610,000 maintenance technicians and 899,000 cabin crew members will be needed to support the global commercial fleet over the next two decades. The worldwide fleet is expected to nearly double and grow to 47,080 airplanes by 2041, according to Boeing's recently released Commercial Market Outlook.
This year's PTO represents a 3.4 percent increase from 2021, excluding the Russia region, which is not forecast in this year's PTO due to sanctions that prohibit exports of aircraft manufactured in western countries and market uncertainty. China, Europe and North America represent over half of the total new personnel demand. The fastest growing regions are Africa, Southeast Asia and South Asia, with all three regions expected to grow more than 4 percent over the forecast period.
"As the commercial aviation industry recovers from the pandemic and plans for long-term growth, we anticipate a steady and increasing demand for aviation personnel, as well as the ongoing need for highly effective training," said Chris Broom, vice president, Commercial Training Solutions, Boeing Global Services. "Our customer-centric approach and digital expertise includes a commitment to delivering data driven, competency-based training and assessment solutions as well as technologies that meet the evolving needs of our customers."

Gunmen burst into a church as its pastor was live-streaming a service in Brooklyn on Sunday, making off with more than $1 million worth of jewelry from him and his wife, according to the New York Police Department.
The thieves targeted Bishop Lamor Whitehead, who heads the Leaders of Tomorrow International Churches and is known for flashy displays of wealth. Whitehead also describes New York Mayor Eric Adams, the former president of the Brooklyn borough, as his mentor.
Whitehead recounted the robbery in a video on Instagram, describing the moment during the morning service when he saw several armed men enter the Leaders of Tomorrow church in the Canarsie neighborhood of Brooklyn .
The armed men drove off in a Mercedes
"When I [saw] them come into the sanctuary with their guns, I told everybody, 'Get down,' Whitehead said. "I didn't know if they wanted to shoot the church up, or if they were just coming for a robbery."
It was the latter. Tallying the value of what was taken, a spokesperson from the office of the deputy commissioner for public information told NPR that the three gunmen "removed more than $1 million worth of jewelry from the victims."
The thieves fled on foot before getting into a white Mercedes Benz, the spokesperson said.
Whitehead says he chased the men on foot and then in his car, adding that he knows they changed their clothes in the car and took off their masks. No one was hurt in the incident, police say.
The In his video, Whitehead said it was both "a gift and a curse" to become a well-known religious figure.
Whitehead rose to wide public attention in May
The pastor also made headlines in May, when he mediated the surrender of NYC subway shooting suspect Andrew Abdullah. At the time, Whitehead said he was connected to the suspect's family through his church. But it was the pastor's ostentatious appearance — wearing a Fendi suit jacket as he stepped out of a Rolls-Royce at a legal aid office — that drew the most attention.
Some of that criticism renewed after the robbery, as people questioned whether the church leader should be living in luxury.
Whitehead acknowledged the high value of the stolen jewelry, saying the men had likely watched his sermons to scout their target. But, he added, those are merely material things.
"I know a lot of people are gonna say, 'Oh, why are you so flashy?' " he said.
"It's not about me being flashy," he added. "It's about me purchasing what I want to purchase. It's my prerogative to purchase what I want to purchase. If I worked hard for it, I can purchase what I want to purchase."
Members of his church were traumatized by the robbery, Whitehead said. He also asked anyone with information to get in touch, saying he wants to be sure the gunmen can surrender safely to police.
According to his church's website, Whitehead is active in business as well as in the ministry, owning mortgage and real estate companies.

Sonmarg (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], July 25 (ANI): As the Amarnath Yatra is in progress in Jammu and Kashmir, religious harmony was seen in the valley where Amarnath Yatris were welcomed by local Muslims on their way to the shrine.
From the men who put up temporary shops offering fruits and vegetables to those running the pony rides and palanquin service and arranging shelters and tents for pilgrims, all are Muslims.

As per the officials, more than 35,000 local Muslims are associated with different arrangements and services of the pilgrimage from the traditional bases camps of Nunwan in Pahalgam and Baltal in Sonmarg.
Among these, around 20,000 are estimated to be service providers that include pony owners from Anantnag, Kulgam and Kishtwar districts, palanquin operators, authorised vendors and shopkeepers, hoteliers and many more.

They eagerly wait for the Amaranth Yatra as it boosts their business as well as provides them with a chance to bond with their Hindu brothers.
Speaking to ANI, one of the pony owners, Firdous said, "This year as 'Amarnath Yatra' is taking place, we are very happy. We start from Baltal and move to Domial and finally leave the pilgrims near the cave."
"There are around 5,000 to 6,000 ponywallahs involved in this activity excluding the Palakiwalas and Pithuwalas," he added.
Expressing happiness with the start of Amarnath Yatra, another pony owner, Mohammad Amin said, "We serve the pilgrims very well and take them carefully to the cave. It is a matter of joy that the yatra has started as it also helps us to earn our livelihood."
As the yatra takes place during the ushering of monsoon season so raincoats and warm clothing are always in demand among the pilgrims.
The makeshift shops opened along the route by Muslims provide a wide range of warm clothing which are available at affordable rates.
The tents pitched on small flat surfaces in mountains are another popular business among the locals. For pilgrims who like to retire for a while and recuperate, these tents give them a good space to stretch and rest before they resume the trek to Amarnath.
Talking about the arrangements done by both the authorities as well as the local service providers, a pilgrim Vibhal said, "There are all kinds of facilities here, be it in form of Poniwalas or Palkiwalas. No matter which age group you belong to, everyone is well taken care of. The Army is also supporting a lot and the stay arrangements have been done in such a manner that it seems as if we are in our own house."
"The Poniwalas and Palkiwalas are playing the main role and they are the ones who carefully take us to pay our obeisance to Lord Shiva," she added.
Another pilgrim Anil Kumar said, "Everything is very good and Poniwalas and Palkiwalas are really providing a lot of support. With God's grace, they are also earning their livelihood through this yatra."
Covered by snow almost all year round, the Amarnath cave contains an ice stalagmite that is considered a physical manifestation of Lord Shiva.
According to legend, Lord Shiva decided to tell Parvati the secret to his immortality in this cave, which was later discovered by a shepherd named Buta Malik in 1850.
The pilgrimage to the Amarnath shrine is not only the most sacred among Hindu devotees but also stands as a symbol of peaceful co-existence among different faiths.
Every year, Muslims eagerly wait for its start and throughout the Yatra, they stay on their toes to serve the Hindu devotees. (ANI)

After two pandemic years of stocking up on stuff – desk, chair, bookshelf, dresses, blender, knives – Rachel Premack is now all about travel and saving what she can. Last year, she had the stimulus dollars and nowhere to go; now, she's got weddings and family visits and worries about rising prices.
This, on a nationwide scale, became the recipe for a whole new problem for some U.S. stores: a glut of inventory.
"It is just a really bizarre back and forth kind of situation," says Premack, who has followed all this as an editorial director at the logistics outlet FreightWaves. "Inventory managers at major big box stores don't even know how to navigate what's happening anymore, they are just exhausted."
Big box stores like Target and Walmart are particularly working through an excess of certain items.
Target has specifically named TVs, kitchen appliances, outdoor furniture, electronics and fitness supplies, with the CEO saying the chain did not anticipate "the magnitude" of the spending shift from goods to services. Some clothing stores, too, such as Gap, got stuck with too many hoodies and athleisure as office workers quickly jumped back into suits and dresses.
"If you think about it, [stores are] ordering goods three, six, even nine months in advance," said Mark Mathews, vice president of research development and industry analysis at the National Retail Federation. "Retailers base their forecasting on historical behavior. But there is no template for what consumer behavior looks like coming out of a pandemic."
This year's hot retail term is the bullwhip effect.
It describes how dips or jumps in demand can get exaggerated by retailers, their suppliers and manufacturers. Take the pandemic darling, the air fryer. When demand suddenly rises, stores rush to avoid empty shelves, ordering a few extras just in case. Their suppliers also order extras from factories, which also make even more extras – until, abruptly, there are too many air fryers right as people are kind of done buying them.
What does that mean now? Shoppers might see sales on some items, such as storage baskets or armchairs, particularly at big box stores. More goods will go to liquidators and discount stores. But it also means another chaotic year for suppliers, like Curtis McGill from the Texas toy company Hey Buddy Hey Pal.
The other day, a large retailer completely rescinded a commitment to buy one of McGill's best-selling sets. A big toy trade show produced fewer orders, too, he said, by over a third. Stores are cautious about future demand – partly because of inflation uncertainty, but partly because their money is tied up in storing and sorting out the inventory glut.
"You could say for being in the toy business this last probably 12 month [period] has not been as much fun as it should be," McGill said.
The shopping frenzy has slowed but hasn't ended.
In the next few weeks, new data will show how long this inventory glut might last, said Jason Miller, who tracks retail inventories and sales at Michigan State University. Initial evidence suggests the retailers with bloated inventories are already starting to get things under control.
Still, importers continue bringing in near record-high amounts of goods to the U.S., he said. That's because even though last year's shopping frenzy has slowed, Miller said, people are still buying more products than they did before the pandemic.

This Supplement Might Be Able To Prevent Your Next Hangover & It's Getting Rave Reviews
It's Health Canada approved, and there's a money-back guarantee.
Going out is fun and all — until it's the next morning and you're in bed with a pounding headache and an upset stomach.
Losing a day to nasty hangover symptoms is just not it, but there’s a Canadian-made product called Activate DHM that may help you avoid all that.
DHM (or dihydromyricetin, if you want to get fancy) is a natural ingredient that has been applied medicinally to support liver function.
It’s actually a fruit extract, used in Chinese herbal medicine for centuries. DHM is also said to prevent the effects of glutamate rebound, which comes with symptoms of restless sleep and feelings of anxiousness.
Activate DHM is the first Canadian product to receive Health Canada approval to use this natural ingredient. In fact, the Activate DHM website states that every ingredient in the supplement is natural and vegan, plus the capsules are free of gluten and nuts.
Other ingredients include NAC (which the Activate DHM website describes as an antioxidant-building amino acid), B-vitamin complex (to help replenish lost nutrients), milk thistle (to reduce inflammation) and electrolytes (to keep your body hydrated).
You can take one capsule before or with your first drink and your second capsule right before bed (with a big glass of water). You can take two capsules before bed if it's been a “big night.”
The following morning, you might just feel better than expected. Many Canadians have left reviews and “swear by these.” Some users have even deemed the supplement a “life saver.”
Activate DHM is made by Winnipeg-based startup Bomb Squad Nutrition Ltd., and it ships for free throughout Canada. Bonus: the company offers a 30-day money-back guarantee on your first bottle if it doesn't work out for you.
Before you use it, remember that Activate DHM isn't meant to help you drink more or recklessly. Instead, it's intended to help prevent symptoms when you drink responsibly.
To learn more about how you can help kick hangovers to the curb, check out Activate DHM's website or follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

ORO VALLEY, Ariz., July 25, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tautachrome (TTCM, Financial) announced today that with the correction of benign typographical error, the USPTO has allowed all of the claims in the patent application entitled System and Method for Creating Geo-Located Augmented Reality Communities.
The patent, which we refer to as the Agoras patent, is the most recent of the Augmented Reality (AR) patents licensed to the Company, and adds an important piece to the Company’s vision of achieving AR for the masses.
Agoras technology provides a way for stores and community outlets possessing a locality identity, such as neighborhoods, small towns and geo-graphic malls, to have a joined virtual presence that may be experienced and accessed as a whole from anywhere by anybody. Access is achieved by any imaging device, AR glasses, tablets, smartphones or computer.

Ontario's Weather Was A Stormy Mess This Weekend & There Were So Many Power Outages
The weekend was lit, candle lit that is.
Ontario's weather forecast was a hot mess this weekend, literally. A sweltering combo of heat and humidity turned the province into a breeding ground for powerful storms, with the aftermath leaving thousands without power.
According to The Weather Network (TWN), this weekend's intense pattern resulted from a collision between July's persistent heatwave and a cold front.
The clash brought several nasty conditions, including heavy rain, strong winds and tornado warnings to the province, a clash that left Hydro One scrambling to restore power.
The corporation tweeted on Saturday that "approximately 25,000 customers in Picton, Napanee, and other surrounding areas" had been left in the dark following a fire at one of their stations.
"The fire has been put out, and crews are working as quickly and safely as possible to assess damage and restore power," an update reads.
It's unclear whether the flames were caused by a storm. However, it was a different story on Sunday when crews were thrust back into problem-solving mode.
\u201cUPDATE: Crews continue to restore power after this weekend's thunderstorms that swept ON. We know the situation is very frustrating for those affected and we appreciate your patience and support as we work to get ON back online. #onstorm For updates visit: https://t.co/JCZXRIEpK4\u201d— Hydro One (@Hydro One) 1658756670
Hydro One reported that over 26,000 customers across Ontario had been left without power due to "severe thunderstorms and heavy rain" at the end of the weekend.
As of Monday morning, there are still several active outages with workers continuing to restore power as quickly and safely as possible after the severe weather.
Customers are asked to report their outage by calling 1-800-434-1235.
It's worth noting that outage maps update every 10 minutes as information comes right from the crews themselves.
"Be sure to stay clear of any fallen power lines. If you spot a fallen line, keep at least 10 metres back, even if it does not appear to be live," a warning on the company's website reads.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — Canadian police reported multiple shootings of homeless people Monday in a Vancouver suburb and said a suspect was in custody.
Authorities said most of the shootings were in downtown Langley, a town of 26,000 about 30 miles (48 kilometers) southeast of Vancouver. One reported shooting was in neighboring Langley Township.
Police offered no immediate word on the suspect’s motive or identity.
Sgt. Rebecca Parslow of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police said she had no details on the conditions of the victims.
After the shooting began, ambulances and police vehicles converged at a mall. The area was cordoned off with yellow police tape and a major intersection was closed. A black tent was set up over one of the crime scenes.
An unmarked police SUV at one of the shooting scenes had at least seven bullet holes in the windshield and one through the driver’s window.
Police issued a cellphone alert about 6:30 a.m., telling people to avoid the area and describing the suspected shooter. Another alert later said that the suspect was in custody and was believed to be solely responsible for the attacks.
A homicide team confirmed on social media that its investigators deployed to Langley to help.
Mass shootings are less common in Canada than in the United States. The deadliest gun rampage in Canadian history happened in 2020 when a man disguised as a police officer shot people in their homes and set fires across the province of Nova Scotia, killing 22 people.
The country overhauled its gun-control laws after an attacker named Marc Lepine killed 14 women and himself in 1989 at Montreal’s Ecole Polytechnique college.
It is now illegal to possess an unregistered handgun or any kind of rapid-fire weapon in Canada. To purchase a weapon, the country also requires training, a personal risk assessment, two references, spousal notification and criminal record checks. | https://wgnradio.com/news/international/canada-police-report-multiple-shootings-in-british-columbia/ | 2022-07-25T18:07:56Z | https://wgnradio.com/news/international/canada-police-report-multiple-shootings-in-british-columbia/ | true | 11 |

Enough is enough. The Supreme Court, and especially Chief Justice John Roberts, have got to understand that they serve the American people, and they can’t leave them hanging.
When a draft leaked of an opinion that would, in its final form, overturn Roe v. Wade, Roberts was furious. “This was a singular and egregious breach of that trust that is an affront to the Court and the community of public servants who work here,” he said. He ordered the Marshal of the Court, essentially the top employee of the court who oversees the staffs, to investigate.
That in itself was troubling. With the court all but accusing the leaker of a criminal act, Roberts could have asked the Justice Department to investigate. Instead, he went with a much less experienced team, one that was under his control.
Justice Clarence Thomas, whose conduct during sessions could reasonably be described as taciturn, called the leak “an infidelity,” an irrevocable breach of trust. Taken together, the comments from Thomas and Roberts amounted to precisely the kind of public grandstanding the justices claim to abhor.
In the months since then, the court has said nothing. We don’t know whether the person who leaked the draft was identified or whether the court plans to outline what happened. It’s anyone’s guess whether the court has acted to prevent future leaks. We don’t even know whether the investigation Roberts so publicly proclaimed is ongoing.
When asked last week by the Associated Press, the court’s spokeswoman sent back a one-sentence email: “The Court has no comment.” That’s simply not good enough.
The idea that being in government demands accountability to the people is a bedrock principle for our nation. The court continues to ignore it.
Arrogance is hardly a strong enough description of the court’s behavior. That has always been present and justices have occasionally reveled in it. The lack of information, the enigmatic behavior, is part of the court’s mystique. That’s precisely how the justices like it.
They go to ridiculous lengths to exempt themselves from the view of the public they work for. They routinely close off otherwise public events to prevent their words from becoming publicly known. They prohibit recording speeches or discussions in which they take part.
The court has evolved into a body that believes in secrecy purely for secrecy’s sake. You’ll occasionally hear astronomers wonder where the nearest black hole is. They can quit searching. It’s a marble building just east of the U.S. Capitol grounds.
This is unacceptable behavior from people who receive a lifetime appointment to the taxpayers’ payroll. While the court’s current average age is 61 years and eight months, that’s largely due to the departure of four longtime justices in the past five years. This summer’s departure of Stephen Breyer alone shaved almost four years off the court’s average age.
The need for change is obvious. We do not, however, agree with those who suggest the court should be expanded. The court’s Constitutional protections were designed to avoid direct political interference, and packing the court would be precisely that.
Instead, given the rather dramatic gains in lifespan since the court’s creation, it is time to end the practice of lifetime appointments. Members should be appointed for terms of no more than 25 years, beginning with the retirements of current members.
There are two primary reasons we believe this approach is warranted. First, the court does need protection from the day-to-day political bickering across the street from its chambers. A 25-year term ensures that no one could reliably predict who would hold the White House or Senate when a justice’s term ends.
Starting with the retirements of the current justices is equally important. Simply kicking off members immediately would grant too much power to the current president and Senate. It also follows precedent: terms in the U.S. Senate were staggered after that body’s creation to prevent wholesale turnover. This would do the same, and there is never a bar on justices retiring before their 25 years end.
A new poll suggests about two-thirds of Americans favor ending lifetime appointments to the Supreme Court. While the court has never used public opinion as a sole barometer, Congress frequently does. It’s time for an amendment to cap the court’s unlimited terms. | https://www.leadertelegram.com/opinion/editorials/our-view-supremes-silence-shows-need-for-change/article_09ac0bf9-bd9d-5a20-aa8b-8ddd418200f0.html | 2022-07-25T18:24:29Z | https://www.leadertelegram.com/opinion/editorials/our-view-supremes-silence-shows-need-for-change/article_09ac0bf9-bd9d-5a20-aa8b-8ddd418200f0.html | true | 2 |
ATLANTA — The prosecutor who's investigating whether former President Donald Trump and his allies illegally tried to interfere in the 2020 election in Georgia cannot question a lawmaker who signed a certificate falsely stating that Trump won the state, a judge ruled Monday.
Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney agreed with Republican state Sen. Burt Jones that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis had a conflict of interest because she hosted a fundraiser last month for Jones' Democratic opponent in November's election for lieutenant governor. McBurney said during a hearing last week that Willis' decision to host the fundraiser was "a 'What are you thinking?' moment. The optics are horrible."
Willis can still ask other witnesses about Jones, the judge said, but will not be able to bring charges against him. Instead, the Prosecuting Attorneys' Council of Georgia, a nonpartisan association of Georgia district attorneys, should appoint another prosecutor to decide if any charges should be brought against Jones, one of 16 Georgia Republicans who falsely claimed to be the state's "duly elected and qualified" electors.
"Today's ruling is a huge win for our campaign — but more importantly, for due process and the rule of law in Georgia," Jones said in an emailed statement.
Willis' office was still reviewing the order and didn't have an immediate comment, spokesperson Jeff DiSantis said.
The judge's decision Monday likely has no real bearing on the future of Willis' overarching investigation into what she has called "a multi-state, coordinated plan" by Trump's campaign to influence the results of the 2020 election. But it served as a rebuke of Willis and provided ammunition to her critics who have accused her of pursuing a politically motivated case.
McBurney said in his order that Willis was within her rights to host the fundraiser but that her decision "has consequences."
"She has bestowed her office's imprimatur upon Senator Jones's opponent. And since then, she has publicly (in her pleadings) labeled Senator Jones a 'target' of the grand jury's investigation," the judge wrote. "This scenario creates a plain — and actual and untenable — conflict. Any decision the District Attorney makes about Senator Jones in connection with the grand jury investigation is necessarily infected by it."
Willis serves as the "legal advisor" for the special grand jury and she and her prosecutors "largely shape the grand jury's investigation by subpoenaing witnesses and leading their questioning," McBurney wrote in his order.
The order says Willis and her team cannot subpoena Jones or seek to obtain any records from him, may not publicly categorize him as a subject or target of the special grand jury's investigation and may not ask the special grand jury to include any recommendations about him in its final report.
McBurney denied a request from 11 of the other people who signed the false electoral certificate to disqualify Willis from matters regarding them and also declined to quash subpoenas for them.
Willis opened the investigation last year, and a special grand jury was seated in May at her request. The special grand jury cannot issue an indictment but instead will issue recommendations when its investigation is done. It will then be up to Willis to decide whether to seek an indictment from a regular grand jury. | https://m.startribune.com/judge-georgia-probe-prosecutor-cant-question-fake-elector/600192902/ | 2022-07-25T18:25:37Z | https://m.startribune.com/judge-georgia-probe-prosecutor-cant-question-fake-elector/600192902/ | false | 15 |

NEW YORK (AP) — A Colombian soccer fan who came to the U.S. as a political refugee is creating a training camp for young people in New Mexico with former players from Colombia as the instructors.
David Certain, who owns a coffee company, hopes one day to expand the program in the United States and also take it back to his home country.
Former Philadelphia Union player Carlos Valdés and ex-Colombia midfielder Víctor Pacheco are among those teaching the skills and disciplines of soccer to young people in Albuquerque this week, along with former midfielder Jorge Bolaño and ex-goalkeeper Julián Viafara.
Certain wants to create a physical but also emotional and mental training camp for young people who like to play soccer.
“You see a lot of talent that looks very robotic. We want to focus a lot on the emotional part, so that they can control their emotions a little more and know that, when there are emotions, it is normal”, the 42-year-old Colombian said. “It is totally normal to feel failure when the goal is not scored, but how do you manage the moment after that? After that, a lot of kids get stuck.”
The daily camp, which is the first project of the new Alianza Sports, ends Friday in Albuquerque. New Mexico United forward Devon Sandoval will also be involved.
Certain says he is working with companies to provide scholarships for the camp. Sessions are for 10-14-year-olds and the 15-20 age group.
Certain and his family fled Cali, Colombia, in 1999 after the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) tried to kidnap him when he was 19.
Certain had an aunt in New Mexico and, after living in Miami for a while, the family moved to Albuquerque. Certain’s 11-year-old son, who plays soccer, inspired him to create the program.
During work trips to Colombia, Certain was able to contact the former players, some of whom already teach soccer and have helped create the program.
“We are very excited, really, we are very happy with everything that has been happening,” Valdés said from Colombia during a telephone interview. “It has not been an easy job, but I know that everyone who is part of it, and those who will go through this experience, will love it.”
Valdés hopes that young people learn not only soccer techniques but also values such as discipline, respect, tolerance and teamwork.
“Getting involved in something in which everyone must go in the same direction helps develop skills that make you a better person,” Valdés said.

JACKSON, Miss (AP) — Amid a series of mass shootings in the U.S., Mississippi education officials made clear that school districts in the state can make their own rules for letting armed people with enhanced carry licenses onto school property.
Following killings at Uvalde’s Robb Elementary School, a July Fourth parade near Chicago and an Indiana mall, the Mississippi Board of Education voted Thursday to update a 1990 internal policy that prohibited anyone other than law enforcement from carrying guns on public school campuses.
Thursday's step removed language from the 1990 policy, which the department said conflicted with Mississippi's 2011 enhanced conceal carry law. The department also argued that the old policy “predates any notable school shootings.”
People are also reading…
“A school district may, in its discretion, prohibit or allow its employees who hold enhanced conceal carry licenses to possess weapons at the school,” said Jean Cook, director of communication for the Mississippi Department of Education.
The 2011 law allows individuals with enhanced carry licenses to carry guns on public school campuses. Enhanced licenses require training and allow gun owners to carry in several places where those with basic permits cannot.
At the boarding meeting, Erin Meyer, the education department’s general counsel, said state law provides “local school districts with the authority and discretion to determine” its weapons policies. School districts can decide for themselves whether or not employees who hold enhanced carry licenses can bring guns onto school property.
School districts must also adopt policies that apply to non-employees. A 2013 state attorney general’s opinion argued teachers or administrators can refuse to meet with armed people in a “non-public” school area. Mississippi K-12 schools are closed to the public, but a school concert, play or sporting event is open to the public, Cook said.
Patricia Ice, a volunteer with the Mississippi chapter of Moms Demand Action, a gun reform organization, urged school districts to adopt policies that limit firearms on campus.
“Allowing teachers and members of the public to carry guns in our K-12 schools is a dangerous idea that will further jeopardize the safety of students and staff alike," Ice said. "We need the adults in the room to make evidence-based policy decisions that will actually keep our children safe, rather than making decisions that will put more guns in their classrooms and put our kids at risk.”
Erich Pratt, senior vice president with Gun Owners of America, said the group fully supports policies to allow willing teachers, administrators and support staff to carry concealed weapons on school campuses.
“Not only will they serve as a concrete deterrent against those who consider acts of evil, but should someone still try to attack a school, these policies will help to neutralize the threat and mitigate any loss of life,” Pratt said.
At an Indiana mall in July, a bystander shot and killed a man carrying out a shooting that claimed the lives of three people and wounded two others. But it is rare in the U.S. for an active shooter to be stopped in such fashion. From 2000 to 2021, fewer than 3% of 433 active attacks in the U.S. ended with a civilian firing back, according to the Advanced Law Enforcement Rapid Response Training Center at Texas State University.
School districts are still required to have a policy regulating firearms on campus, but they have the authority to determine what these policies entail. Possessing a gun on school property without an enhanced concealed carry license is a felony under Mississippi law.
Research conducted by Everytown, another gun reform organization, found that Mississippi is one of the seven states that allow permit holders to carry guns in schools.
The state department of education moved to adopt new language Thursday, but the conflict with state law arose based on legislation that passed a decade ago. When asked about the timing of Thursday's vote, Cook said the policy update is “part of an ongoing review of State Board policies to make sure all are up to date and in compliance with current law. About 30 policies have been updated over the past six months.”
Public schools in Mississippi have the authority to use funds to train employees to use guns. Mo Canady, executive director of the National Association of School Resource Officers, said the policy raises questions about whether teachers can be trained to use firearms for students' protection.
“I don’t know that we can find the time in teachers’ schedules to be training them to that level, both physically and mentally, to have all those skills," Canady said.

The Chabad Hasidic movement has begun legal proceedings against Russia and urged Israeli authorities to only give Russia control of the Alexander Courtyard church compound in Jerusalem - if they return the Schneerson library archives.
Behind the scenes of the diplomatic crisis between Israel and Russia, following Russia's intentions to close down the activities of the Jewish Agency throughout the country, another crisis is developing: Legal proceedings have begun against Russia by the Chabad movement in the US.
Representatives of Chabad appealed to the Legal Advisor of the Israeli government, Attorney Gali Baharav-Miara, demanding the freezing of the procedures for the transfer of ownership of real estate in Jerusalem to the Russian government, especially the Alexander Courtyard church in the Old City of Jerusalem.

In the letter, it is explained the “Schneerson Library,” is a historical collection of the global Chabad movement and that it is a collection that includes approximately 12,000 books and original writings, which were gradually collected and preserved from the end of the 18th century until today.
The Schneerson Library is a unique collection of books that belonged to the dynasty of Lubavitch rabbis before the Russian Revolution and was nationalized by the Soviet Government in the 1920s.
The Schneerson collection at the Jewish Museum and Tolerance Center in Moscow includes a significant and once inaccessible portion of the famous library of the Lubavitcher Rebbes – leaders of the Chabad movement. In 1915, the Lubavitscher Rebbes fleeing from the approaching German troops moved their private library from their residence in Lubavitch to safe storage in Moscow.
Schneerson Library
After the 1917 Russian revolution, the Bolshevik regime nationalized the Schneerson Library. Thus, it became a state property and was deposited to the Lenin State Library (today's Russian State Library).
Chabad has been demanding that the Russian government return the collection to the possession of Chabad headquarters in the US. The last Rebbe of the movement, Menachem Mendel Schneerson, appointed a special delegation to return the books, who since have been working in different ways to achieve the goal.”
So far, a series of judgments and decisions have been issued in the United States against the Russian government, ordering it to return the Schneerson Library to Chabad, including the imposition of a significant fine for contempt of court in the US, which currently stands at approximately 170 million dollars.
Moscow has been demanding that Israel hand over control to Russia of the Alexander Courtyard church compound in Jerusalem which former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu promised to give to the Russians as a goodwill gesture following the release of Naama Issachar from a Russian jail in 2020, but which the Jerusalem District Court blocked - this is just one of the possible reasons for the hostile treatment of Israeli and Jewish organizations in Russia.
Chabad’s approach
Chabad’s approach to Israel’s government is: Don’t give the Russians control over the compound without demanding the return of the Schneerson library archives.
Keidar stated in his letter that "the Schneerson collection has historical Jewish importance, and therefore it is only natural that the State of Israel will do everything in its power on the legal and practical level, to assist my client's worldwide efforts to return the Schneerson collection to its possession at the Chabad Hasidic headquarters in the US".

In his letter, he also sends an implicit threat about the possibility of a diplomatic crisis arising following the issue: "The global Chabad movement has requested that you and the Israeli government be informed ahead of time, that it intends to take legal action against the Russian government in Israel, including regarding Russian assets (or those that the Russian government wishes to register as their owners) in Israel."
At the end of the letter, Keidar demands "to freeze the transfer of ownership of properties in Israel to the Russian government and in particular the Alexander Courtyard church, until the return of the Schneerson collection as a whole is successfully completed."
“The Rebbe assigned us the task of returning the books from Russia,” said Rabbi Shlomo Cunin, a member of the special team appointed by the last Chabad Rebbe to return the books to the US. He added that “We have no doubt that the task will be completed as he [The Rebbe] wished and the books will be returned to the Rebbe's library whether the Russians like it or not.” | https://www.jpost.com/international/article-713047 | 2022-07-25T18:32:20Z | https://www.jpost.com/international/article-713047 | false | 1 |

July 25 (UPI) -- The NFL launched the league's first streaming service, NFL+, on Monday and the new service will begin broadcasting live games next week.
NFL+ will include live local and prime-time regular season and postseason games on mobile devices, the league said in a statement. Prime-time games were previously available to Verizon customers free on the Yahoo! Sports app.
Live out-of-market preseason games, which were previously only available with a subscription to NFL Game Pass for $99.99 annually, will now be available for NFL+ subscribers across all devices.
"NFL+ marks the next evolution of the NFL's direct-to-consumer offering, building upon what the league developed with NFL Game Pass," the league said in a statement.
The league noted that fans will also be able to stream live local and national audio for every game as well as NFL Network shows on-demand and films from the league's archives, among other content.
NFL+ is available for $4.99 per month, or a premium package for $9.99 with ad-free full and condensed game replays.
"Today marks an important day in the history of the National Football League with the launch of NFL+," NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement.
"The passionate and dedicated football fans are the lifeblood of the NFL and being able to reach and interact with them across multiple platforms is incredibly important to us."
Goodell said that he hopes NFL+ will grow and deepen the league's "relationship with fans across all ages and demographics."
NFL+ will not initially include exclusive regular-season games, but NFL Media Chief Operating Officer Hans Schroeder told CNBC that may change in coming years depending on viewership habits.
"It's another option we'll consider with all of our other options," Schroeder said.
"We are really excited about where NFL+ can go. As quickly as media and the sports distribution business continues to change and evolve, there are lots of different factors."
NFL+ will begin streaming live action with the Hall of Fame Game on Aug. 4. | https://www.upi.com/Sports_News/NFL/2022/07/25/nfl-plus-streaming-games-football/8291658760808/ | 2022-07-25T18:33:50Z | https://www.upi.com/Sports_News/NFL/2022/07/25/nfl-plus-streaming-games-football/8291658760808/ | false | 1 |
MILAN (AP) — The first of some 300 Afghan refugees arrived in Rome on Monday along a new humanitarian corridor organized by the Italian government, charities and international organizations, Italy’s Foreign Ministry announced.
The humanitarian corridor aims to give “additional refugees and persecuted Afghans the possibility of a future in dignity and security” following the U.S. withdrawal last August and the Taliban’s reassertion of control, the ministry said.
Thousands of Afghan citizens were evacuated after the fall of Kabul, but many who risked Taliban retribution were left behind. The Foreign Ministry said the corridor, which envisions the transfer of 1,200 Afghan refugees from Iran, Pakistan and other neighboring countries, would give priority to women and children.
The first nine Afghan refugees arrived on a flight from Tehran. Another 200 are flying from Islamabad on Wednesday with a third group arriving from Tehran on Thursday.
At the same time, the number of Afghan refugees taking smuggling routes is growing, with some 3,280 arriving in Italy by sea so far this year, according to the U.N. refugee agency. The International Organization for Migration said Afghans are the top nationality daring the perilous central Mediterranean Sea route to European shores, with 8,121 arrivals through last Friday.
Both organizations were involved in organizing the corridor transfers, along with Italy’s foreign and interior ministries and charities including the Community of Sant’Egidio and Caritas.
Italy has tried for several years to arrange humanitarian corridors so people fleeing conflict, persecution or other grave situations would have an alternative to being smuggled by human traffickers. But the numbers of those being able to reach other countries through these corridors are small compared to the tens of thousands of people who resort to smugglers to reach Europe.
In Sicily, Italian authorities, including border police, detained for investigation of people smuggling five Egyptians who were among 674 survivors aboard an overcrowded fishing boat that was aided last week off southern Italy, the Italian news agency ANSA said Monday. Rescuers found five bodies aboard the fishing boat. Those who died suffered from dehydration and excessive heat, ANSA said.
The suspects were being investigated in the Sicilian port of Messina for allegedly facilitating illegal migration and death as result of another crime, ANSA said. Many of the rescued migrants were transferred Sunday to Messina.
Some survivors told authorities that the smugglers beat them with clubs and belts during the sea voyage and sharply rationed drinking water on the boat, ANSA said.
In all, Italian authorities and charity ships reported rescuing over 1,100 people in the Mediterranean Sea last weekend.

LONDON (AP) — Soccer fans who run onto the field or use objects like smoke bombs and pyrotechnics at matches in England will receive an automatic ban from clubs under new measures to tackle increased anti-social behavior.
Concerns were raised about safety issues inside stadiums following a series of incidents which marred the end of last season in the Premier League and lower leagues.
Among them, Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira kicked out at an Everton fan who was taunting him during a field invasion at Goodison Park and Sheffield United captain Billy Sharp was headbutted in the face by a Nottingham Forest fan at the end of a playoff game in the second-tier Championship. The Forest fan was given a 24-week prison sentence.
“The rise in anti-social behavior that we saw in stadiums at the end of last season was entirely unacceptable and put people’s safety at risk,” said Mark Bullingham, chief executive of the Football Association.
“Together, English football has introduced new measures and stronger sanctions to send out a clear message that we will not tolerate this type of illegal and dangerous behavior.”
The FA did not specify how long any bans would be.
The Football Supporters’ Association has backed the new measures which will come into force in time for the start of the 2022-23 season.
The bans could be extended to accompanying parents or guardians of children who take part in the field invasions, the FA said.
The governing body said it will also be enforcing a tougher charging and sanctioning policy for clubs in order to reinforce the measures.
Other measures to be implemented include improved searching of individuals entering grounds, increased use of sniffer dogs, and working with social media platforms to quickly remove fan videos of illegal behavior.

Winston Meets and Bonds with Carver High School Football Team
The importance of an NFL quarterback transcends the confines of a football field and locker room. Beyond the Xs and Os are the fans, especially the young ones in the surrounding community, that players have a powerful influence.
On Friday, Jameis Winston visited with the football team at George Washington Carver High School in the lower 9th Ward of New Orleans. One famous Ram alumnus is Pro Football Hall of Fame running back Marshall Faulk. Whenever my high school, McDonogh #35, would play the Carver, you were in a tough battle until the final gun. Today's battles for the Rams football team are resources and equipment.
Jameis Winston and his foundation identified Carver as a potential partner to provide assistance to address areas of need.

The Saints signal-caller spoke to the young men on his three pillars - God, School (Learn Everyday), and Dream Forever. The young men were ecstatic to host Winston; he also took photos, signed autographs, and prayed with the team.
Each player received a t-shirt from Winston and can expect a scheduled visit to New Orleans Saints Training Camp in the next few weeks.
Jameis Winston is re-signed a 2-year, $14 million contract with New Orleans and is the team's starting quarterback. Members of the offensive unit spent a few days working out with Winston in Miami. It was his way of creating a critical outreach to fellowship and bond with his offensive teammates.
Saints veterans officially report to the 2022 Training Camp on Tuesday, July 26.

OMAHA, Neb., July 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Workshop, a delightful platform for distributing and measuring internal email and communications, has raised $5.2 million in additional seed funding.
The round was led by McCarthy Capital out of their Emerging Growth strategy. It also included support from a group of prominent Silicon Valley and Midwest venture funds, including Coelius Capital, All Access Fund, Invest Nebraska, and M25.
This additional round of investment follows a pre-seed round for $3.5 million in April 2021. In the last year, Workshop has developed a standout platform for internal email and built up a customer base that's responsible for communications to over 50,000 employees every month, from Fortune 100 companies to beloved brands like Lime and Home Chef.
"Evolving work styles and the shift toward hybrid workplaces have increased the importance of employee communication," said BJ Hansen, Managing Director at McCarthy Capital. "Workshop enables companies to better connect and engage with their employees. We are excited to work with the experienced team at Workshop to support their efforts to become the leading platform for internal communications."
Workshop was co-founded in 2020 by Rick Knudtson (former founder of Flywheel), Ben Stevinson, and Derek Homann (former founders of Median). The group came together with a shared vision to help other organizations create positive, engaging company culture through great internal communication.
"We're excited to partner with McCarthy Capital through the next phase of growth. They believe in our product vision, our team, and the opportunity in the market," said CEO and co-founder Rick Knudtson. "With the new capital, we'll double down on our product strategy and work to provide even more robust solutions for internal communications teams across the world."
The startup plans to use the funds to continue to fuel product innovation and accelerate hiring, with a current focus on recruiting engineering and sales talent.
Workshop also announced the official launch of their new Automatic Lists feature, which enables internal communications teams to integrate with their best employee data sources and create their own automatically updated distribution lists (without the need for IT support). Workshop is able to deliver this feature by offering more integrations than any other internal email platform, enabling teams to pull in employee contact data from Outlook or Google, their HRIS system (including UKG, Workday, and more), or their payroll software (including Gusto, ADP, and more).
"We're really excited to expand Workshop's contact management and integrations to meet customers where they're at, no matter what tooling they're already using," said Chief Technology Officer and co-founder Ben Stevinson. "We've seen a strong signal that we're able to solve our customer's biggest internal comms pain points in a way that hasn't been possible before."

"Games Wide Open" Revealed As Paris 2024 Olympics Slogan
The slogan was released alongside a video promising the Olympics and Paralympics would be "faster", "higher" and "stronger".
- Agence France-Presse
- Updated: July 25, 2022 11:04 PM IST
Organisers of the 2024 Paris Olympics unveiled "Games Wide Open" as their official slogan on Monday and announced prices for tickets fans can start to apply for from December. The slogan was released alongside a video promising the Olympics and Paralympics would be "faster", "higher" and "stronger" -- as well as "more inclusive, more brotherly, more beautiful." It is "an invitation to the entire world to come to experience new emotions, together. Our games are a promise of unprecedented experiences and powerful feelings," the organisers said.
A total of 13 million tickets will be sold for the two events, with nearly half of tickets reserved for the public set to be sold at less than 50 euros ($51).
Outside the opening and closing ceremonies, prices for events will range from 24 euros to a maximum of 950 euros, organisers said in a press statement.
Fans are invited to enter a draw for tickets from December. Packages comprising tickets for three separate events will be available from 72 euros and will go on sale from February.
Also on Monday, French President Emmanuel Macron gathered senior ministers to discuss growing concerns about costs and security for the mega-event.
Promoted
France's top audit body, the Cour des Comptes, warned in a recent report that it was "imperative" to ramp up preparations for the "considerable" security challenge of the games.
It suggested scaling down the ambitious opening ceremony, which is set to take place on the River Seine and feature an armada of 200 boats and some 600,000 spectators. | https://sports.ndtv.com/othersports/games-wide-open-revealed-as-paris-2024-olympics-slogan-3193093 | 2022-07-25T18:45:29Z | https://sports.ndtv.com/othersports/games-wide-open-revealed-as-paris-2024-olympics-slogan-3193093 | true | 5 |

Peeved about long delays in hearing the bail applications of convicted prisoners pending their appeals, the Supreme Court on Monday pulled up the Allahabad High Court, saying it should start thinking “out of the box” and convene even on off days to ensure quick disposal. A division bench conveyed its annoyance by saying it is prepared to “take the extra burden” and call the applications to the apex court if the high court was finding it “difficult” to handle them. The bench of Justices S K Kaul and M M Sundresh noted there are 853 pending criminal appeals where petitioners have spent more than 10 years in jail. “If you are finding it so difficult, we will take extra burden and call bail applications. You have to think out of the box like sitting on Sunday or Saturday. We are dealing with the liberty of the person. So many times we have told you,” the bench observed.
The top court ordered that a list be filed before it of the 853 cases with their serial numbers, details about the time the convicted prisoners have spent in custody, in which of these cases the state is opposing the bail and on which grounds. It granted two weeks to the state for furnishing the details.
The apex court perused a report filed by the senior registrar of the high court with regard to people incarcerated for more than 15 years, and between 10 and 14 years. “It appears that 62 bail applications are still to be disposed of and are to be listed in the next 2-3 weeks. 232 subsequent fresh bail applications have been filed during this period from April 22, 2022 to July 17, 2022 where no bail was applied previously. “We would again like to repeat that having laid down norms it should not take weeks to dispose of these applications. The state counsel states that there are 853 pending criminal appeals where a person in custody has spent more than 10 years,” the bench said. The judges said they have asked the state counsel in how many instances there are aggravating circumstances or cases of multiple offences where the state is opposing the bail and that the counsel told the court that she will have to scrutinise the number.
The top court will hear the matter again on August 17. Taking note of inordinate delays in deciding criminal appeals, the apex court had earlier asked the state government to take a stand in respect of single offence cases and those pending for 10 years or more. It had said unless there are special circumstances, all of them can be enlarged on bail. The Supreme Court had on its own ordered registration of a case to consider laying down guidelines to deal with long pendency of criminal appeals in the Allahabad High Court.
It had underscored the need for a mechanism to promptly list bail applications for hearing if an accused approaches high court. The apex court had also directed the Uttar Pradesh government and officials of the Allahabad High Court to sit together and jointly submit suggestions for regulating the hearing of bail applications during the pendency of appeals of the convicted persons.
The top court was hearing 18 criminal appeals of the convicts in heinous offences seeking bail on the ground that they have spent seven or more years in jail and be granted bail as their appeals against the convictions are yet to be listed for regular hearing in the high court due to the long pendency of cases. The high court has given a slew of suggestions to the top court like in cases of serious and grave offences, rights of the victims and their families should also be considered before granting bail to an accused.

MLS Golden Boot winner Castellanos leaves NYCFC for loan to CFG sister club Girona
New York City FC have confirmed that Valentin Castellanos has made the move to La Liga side Girona. The 23-year-old will spend the 2022-23 campaign on loan at the Spanish club, who are owned by City Football Group, the same company behind Manchester City and NYCFC.
The attacker believes the switch to Girona is the right move as he hopes to continue his development in Europe, with CFG eager to allow Castellanos to take the next step in his career with one of their other clubs.
What has been said about Castellanos joining Girona?
“I came to New York City four years ago and this experience has been everything I could have wanted,” Castellanos told the club’s website.
“It was here where I grew up and took my game to the next level. MLS is a strong and extremely competitive league with fantastic quality.
“I’ve always said that the people at the Club are incredible, it’s like a family. My teammates and the amazing staff that have spent so much time with me have helped me become the player I am today.
“I was so proud to be able to win the Golden Boot last year and help the team bring home the Club’s first MLS Cup for our fans – it is a special moment in my life and one that will live with me forever. Thank you to the best fans in the league for always supporting me and cheering me on every single game, you’ve given me so much belief over the years.
“While it is difficult to leave this Club, I strongly believe that this is the right time for me to move to Europe which has always been a personal dream of mine. I feel confident and ready for a new challenge. I would like to thank NYCFC and Girona FC for giving me this opportunity and for finding a way for me to continue my journey and prove myself.”
How has Castellanos performed for NYCFC?
The Argentine moved to the United States in an initial loan deal from Uruguayan club Torque in July 2018 before he was snapped up on a permanent basis the following January.
Castellanos has been a prolific player for the MLS outfit, scoring 17 goals in just 25 matches this season, while he also lifted the 2021 MLS Golden Boot last year for scoring 19 times in the regular campaign.
Overall, the forward made 134 appearances for NYCFC and scored 59 times.
'From New York to the shop window'
GOAL's American soccer correspondent Ryan Tolmich writes...
Castellano's long-awaited move to Europe is complete as he takes a step up that he has certainly earned.
Since making the move to MLS at just 19, Castellanos has evolved from talented young prospect to MLS star, becoming the latest to take the pipeline from South America to the U.S. to Europe.
Last season's Golden Boot winner earned plenty of looks from European clubs over the last year or so, with Premier League clubs among those linked.
He also drew praise from Pep Guardiola, who said the Argentine certainly has the quality to play at the highest level.
Castellanos will get that chance now on an initial one-year loan that is designed to put the striker in the shop window.
A breakout season in Spain would draw in a different level of suitors, and a different level of transfer fee for CFG, as everyone involved is betting on Castellanos thriving in La Liga.
Girona get a striker, CFG get a chance to better their club and add value to an asset and Castellanos gets his long-awaited chance to prove himself at a higher level.
Everyone wins here.

Championship News
“Could be a great bit of business” – Millwall set to compete for signing of Man United man: The verdict
This article is part of Football League World’s ‘The Verdict‘ series, which provides personal opinions from the FLW writers regarding the latest breaking news, teams, players, managers, potential signings and more…
Millwall are set to face competition from three Championship clubs in the chase to sign Hannibal Mejbri.
According to Sky Sports, the Manchester United academy prospect is a transfer target of Gary Rowett.
Here we ask our FLW writers their verdict on if the 19-year old would be a good addition to the Lions’ squad…
Carla Devine
Hannibal Mejbri would be a brilliant signing for Millwall. He is a young player who has shown plenty of potential so far and if he made a move to The Den, this could be a really exciting signing.
Millwall have already made some good additions and it looks as though they will be a side that offer a threat going forward this season which the 19-year-old would only add to.
This would be a brilliant change for the youngster to show what he can do on a regular basis and you can imagine he will be desperate for the chance therefore giving his best for Millwall.
You can imagine his parent club will be keen for a move that gives him game time and you can certainly see him getting that under Gary Rowett, a manager who could help develop his talents further.
Given he already has a couple of Premier League appearances under his belt, this could be a great bit of business from Millwall and provide them with that something extra to help their push to a top six finish.
Josh Cole
Although Millwall could still be in the market for some new players, they should steer clear of being dragged into a potential battle for Mejbri.
The 19-year-old has only featured on three occasions at senior level for Manchester United during his career and may find it difficult to adapt to life in the Championship.
Quiz: Can you remember the score the last time Millwall played at these 26 stadiums?
When you consider that Millwall recently bolstered their attacking midfield options by swooping for George Honeyman, there is no guarantee that Mejbri will be able to feature regularly if he makes the move to The Den.
In need of regular first-team football, Mejbri ought to consider joining a club who are willing to offer him assurances regarding game-time.
Declan Harte
This would be an exciting signing for Millwall, with a lot of expectation around Man United that Hannibal could be the next big thing from the club’s academy.
At 19-years old, he is already a full fledged international with Tunisia, competing with them in the Arab Cup last year, as well as the Africa Cup of Nations.
He was also brought into the fold at Old Trafford late last season and has been on the fringes of the first team squad for some time, highlighting the promise he has shown.
He would add a level of flair and creativity in attack that would be a big boost to Millwall’s attack, especially in the absence of Jed Wallace.
He is a committed player, which can get him in trouble from time to time, but it will also get the fans on board, who will enjoy his feistiness off the ball and his eagerness to help defend out of possession. | https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/could-be-a-great-bit-of-business-millwall-set-to-compete-for-signing-of-man-united-man-the-verdict/ | 2022-07-25T18:52:40Z | https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/could-be-a-great-bit-of-business-millwall-set-to-compete-for-signing-of-man-united-man-the-verdict/ | false | 1 |

US mulls more events after World Championship success
Issued on: Modified:
Eugene (United States) (AFP) – As a metaphor for a sport with lofty ambitions, Armand Duplantis soaring to a pole vault world record was the perfectly scripted final act that a thrilling World Athletics Championships deserved.
The Swedish star brought the curtain down on the 10-day track and field extravaganza in Eugene on Sunday with a jaw-dropping leap of 6.21m, sailing over the bar with ease to electrify Hayward Field.
Duplantis -- routinely referred to as a "rock star" by World Athletics chief Sebastian Coe -- is part of a golden generation of athletes who lit up the 10-day championships in Oregon.
A slew of other athletes also grabbed the spotlight during the championships, with 400m hurdler Sydney McLaughlin delivering a dazzling world record run and the charismatic Noah Lyles racing to gold in the 200m.
Those kind of compelling performances delighted both Coe and United States Track and Field (USATF), who are desperate to boost the profile of the sport in the country after years where it has languished out of the spotlight.
In pursuit of that goal, more major track and field events in the United States are a certainty.
In 2023, Eugene will host the finale of the Diamond League season -- the first time in history that the meeting has been held outside of Europe.
Others have even wondered whether Los Angeles could be a contender to host the World Championships in 2027, a year ahead of the Olympics in 2028 in the city.
'Catalyst' for athletics
Asked about that possibility on Sunday, USATF chief executive Max Siegel did not rule it out.
"As far as hosting other events we'd love to continue to host events," Siegel told reporters when asked about 2027.
"The more that we can support and give visibility to the sport is great for all of us. The timetable is something that we would have to work through.
"But we look forward to working with World Athletics and hosting more events here."
Coe meanwhile said the championships had drawn an additional 400,000 new followers to World Athletics social media platforms with seven million engagements. Videos posted by World Athletics drew 41 million views.
Siegel says US officials will continue to work with World Athletics to determine how best to exploit those numbers.
"Anecdotally I've had more people who are not traditional track fans reach out to me," Siegel said. "There's a huge awareness because of the World Championships.
"We're working in partnership with World Athletics to get both quantitative and qualitative date as to where the sport sits, with tons of strategies to reposition the sport and the brand and to tell the stories of the athletes. We have a pretty robust plan leading up to LA 2028.
"We're going to capitalize on this event and use it as a catalyst to reposition the sport."
Global spotlight
Athletics will also benefit from a schedule over the next six year that will mean the sport is more or less permanently in the global spotlight.
A consequence of the Tokyo Olympics' postponement by a year -- and the knock-on decision to reschedule the Eugene championships to 2022 -- means that the sport will now have a global championship in seven of eight years between 2021 and 2028.
Next year's World Championships in Budapest are followed by the 2024 Paris Olympics, before Tokyo hosts the World Championships in 2025. A lone fallow year in 2026 is followed by the 2027 World Championships and the 2028 Olympics.
"If you look at the next six or seven years we have athletics absolutely centre stage in northern hemisphere terms in the most broadcastable part of the year," Coe said. "I'm really pleased we’ve got the opportunity to showcase athletics, but I don't minimize the challenges some athletes are going to face."
While the likes of McLaughlin, Lyles and 800m star Athing Mu were the figureheads of a successful US team, the global spread of talent in Eugene was also notable.
The evergreen Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce bagged a fifth world 100m crown, while compatriot Shericka Jackson blazed to victory in the 200m in 21.45sec, the second fastest time in history.
On Sunday, Nigeria's Tobi Amusan delivered arguably the most stunning world record of the championships, scorching to 12.12secs before going on to win gold in the women's 100m hurdles.
Those performances encourage Coe to believe that the sport has a range of stars to market itself around in the post-Usain Bolt era.
"We recognize the unique nature of what Usain Bolt brought to our sport," Coe said on Sunday.
"But I' m probably more optimistic about the bandwidth of talent that is coming through... We've got a whole group of young athletes that are there or thereabouts."

The ISIL attack was launched in Samarra city located in Iraq's Saladin province.
No further details have been released about the attack.
After nearly three and a half years of fighting with the ISIL terrorist group, which occupied about a third of the country, the Iraqi government announced the liberation of all its territories from the terror terrorist group in December 2017.
The remaining elements of ISIL are still operating in some areas in Baghdad, Saladin, Diyala, Kirkuk, Niveneh, and Al Anbar provinces.

Lupita Nyong’o is reflecting on what it was like to make ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ without Chadwick Boseman.
via People:
Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter Saturday at San Diego Comic-Con, the 39-year-old actress opened up about filming the highly anticipated sequel to 2018’s Black Panther after the loss of star Boseman, who died in August 2020 at the age of 43 after a private battle with colon cancer.
“For us as a cast, having lost our king, Chadwick Boseman, that was a lot to process, and in many ways, we’re still processing it,” Nyong’o said. “When you lose someone, I don’t know when you stop missing them. And of course, we felt it so much, making this film without him.”
Despite it being “a doozy of a few years for everybody,” Nyong’o told THRthat she’s “very proud” that they were able “to make this film against all odds,” calling the act “a powerful statement unto itself.”
“It was very therapeutic,” she said. “It restored a sense of hope for me in making it, and I think we’ve expanded the world of Wakanda in ways that will blow people’s minds — not just Wakanda, but the Black Panther world. It’s gonna blow people’s minds, and I just cannot wait until it’s not a secret anymore.”
Speaking with Variety, Nyong’o’s castmate Danai Gurira got emotional as she discussed how she “never knew when it was just gonna be a really hard day” on set when it came to remembering Boseman, and that the original cast’s new costars “held [them] up” through their grief.
On Saturday, Marvel debuted the first teaser trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
Music to accompany the powerful footage, first shared during a panel at Comic-Con, begins with a cover of Bob Marley’s “No Woman, No Cry” and concludes to the tune of Kendrick Lamar’s “Alright.”
Nyong’o’s character Nakia is the first on-screen, followed by appearances from Letitia Wright as Shuri in an all-white outfit and, later, in tearful scenes on the beach.
A synopsis of the film states that the characters “must fight to protect their nation from intervening world powers in the wake of King T’Challa’s death.”
“As the Wakandans strive to embrace their next chapter, the heroes must band together with the help of War Dog Nakia (Nyong’o) and Everett Ross (Martin Freeman) and forge a new path for the kingdom of Wakanda,” the synopsis continues.
Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige appeared at Comic-Con on Saturday alongside director Ryan Coogler and cast members including Winston Duke, Tenoch Huerta and Florence Kasumba.
Nyong’o spoke about the upcoming film in an interview with Yahoo! Entertainment in April 2021, saying that her feelings about returning to the Black Panther universe go beyond “excitement.”
“I’m in a very pensive and meditative state when it comes to Black Panther 2,” said the actress. “[Chadwick’s] passing is still extremely raw for me. And I can’t even begin to imagine what it will be like to step on set and not have him there.”

Which bird leash is best?
Bird owners may be surprised to learn that you can buy leashes designed to let your feathered friends enjoy the sunshine and fresh air outdoors. Getting your bird comfortable with a leash opens up a world of socialization and exploration possibilities that can greatly enrich the life of your pet
The Aviator is the industry standard when it comes to bird leashes. It includes a secure, durable harness and comes in sizes for the smallest budgie all the way up to the largest macaw.
What to know before you buy a bird leash
Your bird’s personality
Most birds can be trained to tolerate a leash with time and patience, but the best candidates are those that already enjoy activity, exploration and handling. Carefully consider your pet’s demeanor as well as your relationship with it. Training gone wrong can result in long-lasting distrust, so it’s important to be sure of your bird’s willingness to cooperate prior to a training session.
Leash types
Most bird leashes connect to a harness that wraps under your pet’s wings and around its neck. These offer the most security, as a determined bird will need to chew through multiple connections to fully free itself.
Some leashes connect to a plastic band that loops around your bird’s leg. These are not recommended, as the single connection to your pet makes escape easy. These leashes also pose a safety hazard. A frightened bird may take flight, only to have its leg pulled when the leash is fully extended. This can traumatize and hurt your pet.
Risks
Bringing your bird outside subjects it to dangers it won’t find indoors. A frightened bird may break free from its leash and end up flying out of your reach. Small, tame birds are vulnerable creatures that make easy prey for cats, dogs and even hawks who may swoop down to grab them.
While taking your bird outside has a number of benefits for these intelligent, curious animals, you will need to exercise great caution while doing so.
What to look for in a quality bird leash
Harness material
Birds are naturally destructive, and the beaks of many species have evolved to crush nut shells and shred hard wood. Your bird’s leash should come with a harness made of tough woven material or leather.
Even the strongest material can be picked apart over time. If your bird is especially prone to chewing, you will have to replace your harness regularly.
Leash length
Choose a leash long enough to allow your bird the freedom to move about without restriction, but not so long that it may take off and land on a branch or surface too high for you to reach. Leashes that are too long may also get tangled around your pet and result in injury and stress. Generally, a leash length between 5 and 10 feet is ideal.
Harness size
A harness that’s too small will be hard to put on and cause discomfort to your bird. Those that are too big are easy to escape from.
Most bird leashes come in sizes based on species. Be sure to select the one designed with your pet in mind.
Color
Color is not just an aesthetic choice when it comes to bird accessories. Some birds are particular about colors and even afraid of especially bright items.
Choose a leash color that won’t startle your bird but still lets you easily determine whether the harness is being worn securely.
Elastic
Some bird leashes are at least partially made from a stretchy, elastic material. This is a safety feature that prevents your bird from hurting itself if it takes flight and quickly pulls the leash to its maximum length.
How much you can expect to spend on a bird leash
Most bird leashes can be purchased for $10-$15. Offerings from reputable manufacturers, however, can cost up to $50 depending on size.
Bird leash FAQ
Will my bird wear a leash and harness?
A. Possibly, but it will take time, patience and a great deal of treats and encouragement to get them comfortable. Birds that have not been hand raised and are not tame will not tolerate a leash.
Are bird leashes safe?
A. Generally, yes. However, birds are delicate and prone to injuring themselves attempting to escape frightening situations. Natural escape artists, unsupervised parrots can make short work of snipping through a harness with their powerful beaks. Never leave your pet unattended while on their leash.
Can my bird fly while on a leash?
A. Most bird leashes aren’t long enough to allow flight. Some bird owners unclip the leash from their bird’s harness, letting them fly freely in safe, open areas. However, this should only be done with highly trained birds in areas where they will not be injured or preyed upon, or get lost.

99-year-old woman’s medic alert necklace saves her from home invasion attack, officials say
PITTSYLVANIA COUNTY, Va. (WDBJ/Gray News) – A 99-year-old woman has her medic alert necklace to thank for potentially saving her life during a home invasion that left her wounded.
The Pittsylvania County Sheriff’s Office said deputies responded to a 911 call around 10:15 p.m. Saturday.
When they arrived at the home, deputies found the 99-year-old victim with a stab wound to the hand.
They said someone broke into her home, robbed and assaulted her. During the attack, the suspect also cut the cord to the victim’s house phone, preventing her from calling for help. That’s when her medic alert necklace came in handy.
The victim pressed the help button on the necklace, which alerted 911.
“The call actually came in from a medic alert necklace. The victim was able to make the call herself,” said Corey Webb with the Pittsylvania County Sheriff’s Office.
The woman was flown to a Roanoke hospital where she received seven stitches in her hand. She is now back home safely with her family.
Wallace Wimbush, the victim’s son, said he hopes his mother can get over the trauma.
“She’s hurt. She doesn’t understand why someone would do something to her, and she’s 99 years old. She doesn’t bother anyone,” Wimbush said. “You’re going to come in and mess up her entire life where she’s going to be hurt, anxiety that’s going to follow her for a lot of days.”
The suspect is still on the loose. K-9 units are helping with the investigation.
“Whoever you are, I hope we find you. I’m going to be out there. I’m putting money out there for reward. Whoever did this, we want to catch you,” Wimbush said.
Anyone with information is asked to call Pittsylvania County Crime Stoppers at 800-791-0044. A cash reward of up to $5,000 is being offered for information leading to an arrest.

Growing up in mid-sized Virginia Beach, Andrew Waldholtz wanted to live in a big city so he moved to the District of Columbia for college. After four years in the comparatively expensive city, he realized he wanted a place to live that was more affordable.
Waldholtz, 35, eventually found a happy compromise in St. Louis whose Midwestern affordability and opportunities to build his career in corporate compliance had the added bonus that his sister and brother-in-law lived there.
Now living 940 miles (1,513 kilometers) away from Virginia Beach, Waldholtz is in a distinct minority among others who reached adulthood in the 21st century in that he resides a half-continent away from where he grew up, according to a new study by U.S. Census Bureau and Harvard University researchers released Monday.
The study found that by age 26 more than two-thirds of young adults in the U.S. lived in the same area where they grew up, 80% had moved less than 100 miles (161 kilometers) away and 90% resided less than 500 miles (804 kilometers) away. Migration distances were shorter for Black and Hispanic individuals, compared to white and Asian young adults, and the children of higher income parents traveled farther away from their hometowns than those of less wealthy parents, according to the study.
“For many individuals, the ‘radius of economic opportunity’ is quite narrow,” the report said.
Young adulthood is a period in life when migration is highest in the U.S. The study looked at the likelihood of people born primarily between 1984 and 1992 moving away from the commuting zone they grew up in. Commuting zones are made up of one or more counties that reflect a local labor market, and there are more than 700 commuting zones in the U.S. The birth range in the study overlaps the generation typically referred to as millennials.
It turns out that the most common destinations for young adults were concentrated near where they grew up, said the study which utilized decennial census, survey and tax data.
For instance, three quarters of people who grew up in the Chicago area stayed there. Rockford was the top destination for people who moved away and stayed in Illinois but only represented less than 1% of the young adults from Chicago. Los Angeles was the top destination for those who moved out of state but that accounted for only 1.1% of young adults from Chicago, according to an interactive data tool that accompanies the study.
Where young adults moved to varied by race.
Atlanta was the most popular destination for young Black adults moving away from their hometowns, followed by Houston and Washington. Young Black adults who grew up in high-income households were multiple times more likely to move to these cities in a “New Great Migration” than those from low-income families, according to the study.
For white adults leaving their hometowns, New York, Los Angeles, Washington and Denver were the most population destinations. Los Angeles and New York were the top two destinations for Asians and Hispanic young adults. San Antonio and Phoenix also were popular with Hispanics, while San Francisco also appealed to Asian young adults.
Despite the region’s economic woes and the prospect of job opportunities elsewhere, young adults in Appalachia were less likely to move far from their hometowns compared to those of similar incomes living elsewhere, the report said.
The reluctance of millennials to move far away is backed up by recent studies showing declines in mobility in the U.S. for the overall population. In the middle of the last century, about a fifth of U.S. residents, not just young adults, moved each year. That figure has dropped steadily since the 1950s, going from about 20% to 8.4% last year, due to an aging population, dual-income households that make it more difficult to pick up and move and, more recently, the pandemic, according to a recent report from Brookings.
A Pew Research Center survey released last week showed that a quarter of U.S. adults ages 25 to 34 resided in a multigenerational family household in 2021, up from 9% in 1971. The age groups in the Pew study and the study by the Census Bureau and Harvard University researchers overlap to some degree.
When there were wage gains in a local labor market, most of the benefits went to residents who grew up within 100 miles (161 kilometers) rather than people who had migrated to the area. Wage increases’ effect on migration to an area was rather small, and migrants likely would have moved there regardless of wage hikes. Young Black adults were less likely to move to a place because of wage hikes compared to white and Hispanic millennials, said the study released Monday.
Waldholtz, who is white, graduated into the recession in 2008 and went back to Virginia Beach for work. “Probably the worst time ever to be looking for a job,” he said. He eventually went to law school in Ohio and prioritized work opportunities when deciding where to live after graduation. three years later.
“All of us need a job to pay our bills,” Waldholtz said. “That factor has to be the most important factor.”

MARYVILLE, Ill. (KTVI) – After being diagnosed with stage IV esophageal cancer and told she wouldn’t live to see her 30th birthday, an Illinois woman beat the disease, and then nearly died while giving birth.
Andrea Miller celebrated her 45th birthday on Sunday, July 24.
“I live life to the fullest now,” Miller said.
In 2003, Miller was 25 and had gallstones. She had an ultrasound on her gallbladder and doctors took the opportunity to check her other organs. They discovered she only had one kidney. Miller had no idea and neither did her mother.
She married in October that year. In fall of 2004, she had a CAT scan to find out more. She learned she has a congenital birth defect where she’s missing a right kidney, a right ovary, and a right fallopian tube.
Not only did the CAT scan confirm Miller’s congenital disability, but it also showed a mass near her stomach. She went in for a biopsy and doctors found a cancerous mass. A follow-up PET scan revealed that the cancer was in her stomach, esophagus, liver, and lymph nodes. Miller was just 27. Doctors told her Miller it was unlikely she’d make it to 30.
Just before Miller was diagnosed with cancer, her father-in-law was diagnosed with leukemia.
“It was difficult for both of us, being so young and newly married. Never in a million years did we think we would be facing that so early in our marriage,” she said.
At the time, Miller was a loan processor for State Farm and had only been with the company for six months. Her husband also worked there.
“It was a very very family-like atmosphere. People rallied around us,” Miller said. “They actually paid me throughout my entire treatments.”
She went through treatments for two years at Siteman Cancer Center. She had chemotherapy from December 2004 to April 2005. In October 2005, the tumors in her liver were gone. Her oncologist then sent her to the surgeons. In November of 2006, she had an esophagectomy with a gastric pull-through. They removed the top third of her stomach and most of her esophagus, pulled her stomach up into her chest to reattach it to her esophagus, and then removed seven of her lymph nodes. She was told she could be in the hospital for up to three months after the surgery, but she was there for 13 days.
The surgery did not remove all the cancer outside her stomach. After recovering, she went through 5.5 weeks of daily radiation and more chemotherapy. Then she was cancer-free.
“I was told I had a miraculous recovery,” Miller said.
Throughout her cancer journey, she and her husband would go to the Melting Pot after every CAT scan.
“We would go the day that I had it, and then it seemed like I used to get good results,” Miller said. The couple celebrated Andrea’s positive news by going there once again.
At no point did she believe she wouldn’t make it to 30.
“That’s not going to happen. I’m not going to leave my husband. I’m not going to leave my parents. I’m not going to do that mentality,” Miller said. “I will tell anyone going through cancer, you have to have a positive attitude.”
In 2007 she got pregnant with her son, Reid. At 32 weeks pregnant, Miller was in the hospital for one week. Then she was put on bed rest, but she delivered with no complications at 37 weeks on May 16, 2008, and went home two days later.
It was with her second son, Holt, in 2012 that she had major complications. Based on Miller’s first pregnancy, she was very excited that she made it to 32 weeks without any issues, but at 33 weeks she didn’t feel well. Her doctor told her to rest and take ibuprofen which was part of her regimen for preterm labor. For a few days, she was able to manage her pain this way. Then she woke up in a tremendous amount of pain.
“I knew I wasn’t in labor, but I knew the pain that I was having was not right,” Miller said.
Then she, her husband, and Reid packed up and went to Missouri Baptist where her high-risk OB was. When they arrived at 7 a.m., Miller was unable to walk on her own. This time was also a shift change at the hospital. So when the family got to labor and delivery, no one was at the registration desk, but a nurse, Amy Abbate, looked at her, stepped forward, and said “I’ll take her.” Miller and Abbate are good friends to this day.
Miller’s body temperature was at 92.3 and she was septic, but the doctors weren’t sure why.
“I’m deteriorating, and it’s causing the baby to become distressed,” Miller recalled.
Holt was born seven weeks premature via an emergency c-section and rushed off to the NICU. While Miller was still on the operating table, she went into respiratory arrest. Then a code blue was called meaning she was no longer responsive. She was intubated and placed on life support.
A CAT scan showed her diaphragm had ruptured and her small intestine herniated into her chest, causing her lung to collapse and putting pressure on her heart.
“I should have been transferred to Barnes but I was critical unstable and couldn’t be moved,” Miller said.
She was taken back for surgery at Missouri Baptist and Miller is still thankful to her OB who stayed in the operating room as an observer and came out to brief her family periodically. Once surgeons opened Miller up, they found that the intestine that had gone into her chest cavity was dead. Surgeons repaired her diaphragm, reinflated her lung, and removed 85% of her small intestine. The average adult has 900 cm of small intestine. Miller now has 139 cm.
Following surgery, she was on life support for 12 hours. At that point, doctors weren’t sure if Miller was going to be able to eat on her own ever again. They also had expected her to stay at the hospital for three months, but she was there for two weeks.
Holt was born on April 1, 2012.
“His birthday is no joke,” Miller said.
One week after she went home, Holt came home.
“We are so fortunate to have such excellent health care in St. Louis. I owe both those hospitals and all those doctors so much,” Miller said. “I know the names of all the doctors; whether it be through my cancer, my oncologists, my surgeons, to the nurses and doctors at MoBap.”
She said it’s possible that the surgery she had at the end of her cancer treatment played a part in the emergency she had while giving birth to Holt. Following his birth, she spoke to the surgeon that did her esophagectomy with a gastric pull-through. That surgeon said “it was done in a way that would have left room for the shifting of the organs.” So when she was pregnant with Reid, “things got shifted around, moved, pushed, all of that, and then with the second one it moved and pushed so much that it caused the space that was left around the diaphragm to rupture.”
Eight months after Holt was born, Miller and her husband separated. They are now divorced.
“I have no ill feelings toward him,” she said. “We both experienced the same thing, but we experienced it in very different ways. So for him it was, I’ve had to watch you almost die twice, and for me it’s oh my gosh, I’ve overcome almost dying twice. The second one was just too much.”
Miller has lived 18 years past her diagnosis date and she has been cancer free for 15.
Reid will be a freshman this fall at Triad High School. He’s on the Triad High School hockey team and also plays baseball. Holt will be in fifth grade and he plays soccer and hockey.
“It’s been an incredible journey,” Miller said. | https://www.wtrf.com/news/national-news/woman-celebrates-45th-birthday-after-doctors-say-she-wont-see-30/ | 2022-07-25T19:16:56Z | https://www.wtrf.com/news/national-news/woman-celebrates-45th-birthday-after-doctors-say-she-wont-see-30/ | true | 29 |
The husband of the missing person speaks. Investigated the commander of the motorboat, the hypothesis of the autopilot
ROME. The crash in the sea took place Saturday afternoon at 5.30 pm between Monte Argentario and the island of Giglio: a yacht rammed a 15-meter-long sailboat and gutted its stern. And the cause of the accident may have been the autopilot on the yacht. Andrea Giorgio Coen, 59, an antiquarian from Biella but Roman by adoption, lost his life while Anna Claudia Cartoni, 60, is still officially missing. Both were located below deck, in the cockpit, while the husband of the missing woman, Fernando Manzo, was at the helm of the Vahinè. He saw his wife disappear into the water. “She drowned before my eyes, I could not save her,” he said desperately to the rescuers in the hospital. On the motor boat there were four Danes who had been to Giannutri and had to return to the island of Elba. Shipwreck, manslaughter and injuries are the crimes hypothesized by the Grosseto prosecutor who coordinates the investigations: according to investigators and investigators, the most probable hypothesis is that the powerful motorboat was sailing with autopilot on and ended up at high speed. against the sailboat on which six people, all residing in Rome, were traveling. For now the only suspect is the Danish commander Per Horup, 59 years old. His son Mikkel, 26, and two women, Tine Lehmann, 54 and Anna Maria Sorensen Durr, 25, traveled with him on the Fireline 58. The investigations, entrusted to the prosecutor on duty Valeria Lazzarini, are conducted by the coast guard and one of the first things that must be ascertained is the speed at which the yacht proceeded: precisely the ordinances of the Port Authority establish that at a distance of one km from the beaches or 500 meters from the rocky coasts, the maximum speed should not exceed 10 knots. The four Danes were heard yesterday morning by the coast guard in Porto Santo Stefano, but the testimonies of those aboard the sailboat that left from the port of Riva di Traiano, a few kilometers from Civitavecchia, will also be important.
The victim, Andrea Giorgio Coen, was an antique dealer considered to be one of the greatest Italian experts in tapestries. He was the owner of an art gallery, specializing in antique tapestries and carpets, in via Margutta, in the heart of the historic center of Rome, inherited from his father who founded it in 1970. A great sportsman, he was passionate about sailing and marathon, including rowing. Member of the “Tirrenia Todaro” rowing club, he is remembered by some members as “a generous and kind man. A gentleman of other times ». He leaves his wife Nicoletta and two children, Federico and Benedetta, aged 19 and 20.

New York City Renaming West 143rd Street in Althea Gibson’s Honor
- Updated: July 25, 2022
Althea Gibson will receive a homecoming celebration on her birthday next month.
New York City will honor the International Tennis Hall of Fame champion by renaming West 143rd Street in Harlem, where she lived with her family, as “Althea Gibson Way.”
The renaming ceremony will be conducted on the late tennis icon’s 95th birthday on August 25th from noon to 2 p.m. at West 143rd Street between Malcolm X and Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevards. Former pro Leslie Allen and several family members and friends of Althea Gibson will be on hand for the ceremony.
In 1956, Althea Gibson became the first black champion in Wimbledon history when she partnered Angela Buxton to the doubles crown.
Gibson became the first African-American to win the US Nationals, the pre-cursor to the US Open, when she won the women’s singles championship in 1957. She repeated the feat in 1958. Overall, she won a combined eleven Grand Slam titles in singles, doubles and mixed doubles play during her Hall of Fame career.
Gibson won singles titles at Wimbledon in 1957 and 1958 as well as Roland Garros in 1956.
It was just 72 years ago that Gibson broke tennis’ color barrier becoming the first African American to compete at the U.S. National Championships—now the US Open—on August 25th, 1950.
“It’s simple. She’s the Jackie Robinson of tennis; she deserves it,” former USTA President Katrina Adams said of Gibson. “By breaking the color barrier, she made it possible for every person of color after her to have a chance to achieve their goals in the sport.”
Fittingly, Althea Gibson Way will debut on the Hall of Famer’s birthday and 72 years after she broke tennis’ color barrier.
“I always wanted to be somebody,” Althea Gibson famously said.
“If I made it, it’s half because I was game enough to take a lot of punishment along the way and half because there were a lot of people who cared enough to help me.” | https://www.10sballs.com/2022/07/25/new-york-city-renaming-west-143rd-street-in-althea-gibsons-honor/ | 2022-07-25T19:20:36Z | https://www.10sballs.com/2022/07/25/new-york-city-renaming-west-143rd-street-in-althea-gibsons-honor/ | false | 1 |
What Does the Gordy Subplot Mean in Jordan Peel’s ‘Nope’?
Right now, Jordan Peele is three for three with his latest film, Nope, being his third box office smash (despite what some people and Logan Paul may think). It is a dense but interesting film about the nature of spectacle that works so well. It’s a different experience than I expected, and I can’t wait to watch it again—and one aspect I keep coming back to is the side story of Gordy.
Spoilers for Nope.
Steven Yeun plays Ricky “Jupe” Park, a former child star who was in a show called Gordy’s Home!, a ’90s sitcom that featured a chimpanzee that became violent during production. The ape attack features heavily as the animal, Gordy, is alarmed due to being startled by a balloon popping. He goes on a rampage and brutalizes his co-stars, save Jupe (played in the flashback by Jacob Kim).
Young Jupe is hiding behind a lace veil, and Gordy approaches the boy and attempts to give him a blood-covered fist bump, but is killed by animal control.
In the present day, Jupe has a Western-themed amusement park that’s promising something big. We see him buying more of the Haywood family’s horses, but he is reluctant to let them be purchased back. That is because he has been using them as food for the alien space ship that is hidden above the clouds. Jupe has been trying to “tame” the creature and make it part of his amusement park attraction.
However, he doesn’t understand that this alien is a predator and cannot be tamed. Rather than just being oggled at, the alien swallows up Jupe, his family, and the crowd of people who were looking at him.
Throughout the film, Daniel Kaluuya’s character of OJ Haywood is trying to be respectful of the temperament of the animals around him. He knows that they can’t be fully tamed, that they have their own individual temperament and not every animal is meant to be trained. It is a lesson that Jupe should have learned with Gordy.
Trying to deeply analyze Jordan Peele films can sometimes be … a lot, because people think everything is symbolic. Sometimes things just happen. With Gordy, however, there is a clear line Peele seems to be saying about the idea of turning creatures (and even people) into a spectacle.
Gordy may have been a friendly chimp, but he was still an animal, who shouldn’t have been on a soundstage with chaotic elements that could scare him. He got startled and reacted as his instincts told him to act. The murder of Jupe’s family confirms to OJ that this flying saucer isn’t a ship, but a predatory cryptid, one-winged-angel-style creature that acts when its dominance is tested when people look straight at it.
Basically, it is a long way of saying: fuck around and find out—animal edition.
At first, this doesn’t click, but as the film wraps up, it is hard not to ignore that while it seems out of place, Gordy is meant to teach us something about the way we choose to turn certain people and creatures into entertainment.

PHOENIX, July 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- On July 20th, 2022, Rise Invest acquired the apartment community known as Lofts on 3rd located at 1401 N 3rd Street in Phoenix, AZ.
Lofts on 3rd was recently renovated in 2019 and consists of 14 1x1 units, 14 2x2, units (twelve of which are loft style), and one penthouse unit. The property is located just north of I-10, near the heart of downtown Phoenix and is just a 5-10 minute walk from Roosevelt Row, which has blossomed into one of the Phoenix MSA's best nightlife districts. Much like the rest of the Phoenix MSA, this area has received significant investment in housing in order to keep pace with demand and support the growing economy.
Lofts on 3rd has seen significant revitalization in recent years. 100% of the units have been renovated with modern finishes and in-unit washers/dryers — in addition to significant improvements addressing amenities, deferred maintenance, and curb appeal. The property stands to benefit even further from enhanced property management and leasing.
The acquisition is a 1031 exchange of an asset that Rise Invest sold recently in combination with additional 1031 funds from another Rise Invest investor.
"This deal has everything you want at a time like this," says Drew Breneman, Rise Invest's Founder & CEO. "The going-in cap rate is phenomenal, and we will be cash-flowing on day 1 without needing to capture any loss-to-lease. We're now up to 5 properties and 190 total units in the Phoenix MSA after having stepped into the market late last year and have come far in scaling our portfolio outside of Chicago and Minneapolis. We're very excited about this asset and continuing to invest in Phoenix."
"It is rare to acquire a stabilized asset in downtown Phoenix at such an attractive basis. With the help of our partners, we are confident that this will provide investors healthy cashflow while also being positioned in one of the most desirable areas in a rapidly growing market," says Evan Dillon, 27, VP of Investments.
"So much of our time is spent surveying the market and identifying the most favorable investment opportunities, and we have a lot of conviction that our acquisition and strategy for Lofts on 3rd will be successful. We're eager to continue building our reputation within the greater Phoenix market, and we think this deal is an excellent opportunity to showcase just that," says Sam Markin, 26, Investment Associate.

The Vampire Diaries' Julie Plec Is Hyping Her New Show With Bridgerton And Hunger Games Comparisons
The Vampire Diaries franchise creator Julie Plec is keeping plenty busy following Legacies’ cancellation. While she recently signed a deal for five new shows, she has a supernatural series coming with a new group of vampires with Vampire Academy. Now, she is hyping up the show with some pretty sweet references.
Initially, Julie Plec called the new series a “Bridgerton with vampires.” However, while discussing Vampire Academy with EW, Plec not only compared it to the Netflix hit, but also compared it to movie franchise The Hunger Games:
It's really the story of the beginning of a revolution. In the midst of all the great opulent balls and royal intrigue, we're telling a Hunger Games-esque story, which caught us by surprise as we were breaking it. It's got everything: It's got the Bridgerton and the Hunger Games.
Vampire Academy is based on the novel of the same name by Richelle Mead, but it sounds like it’s going to expand beyond that world and include much, much more. The Bridgerton part of the series makes sense since the show will also be revolving around royalty at points, but similarities to The Hunger Games raise some intriguing new questions about what to expect.
The series was first announced in May 2021, with Plec and longtime collaborator Marguerite MacIntyre serving as co-showrunners. While the book was adapted into a movie in 2014, this is the first time it will become a TV show. The film and series will have no relation to each other, as both are solely based on the books.
Vampire Academy stars Sisi Stringer, Every Witch Way's Daniela Nieves, Kieron Moore, and Degrassi vet André Dae Kim. The series is set to premiere on Peacock on September 15 and consist of ten episodes. Be sure to get a Peacock subscription so you can watch it and see vampires battle it out Hunger Games-style and have royal drama that will remind you of Bridgerton, based on what Plec previewed!
Meanwhile, since Julie Plec has her hands full with multiple new shows, what does this mean for The Vampire Diaries Universe? Legacies’ finale had some closure, especially with the long-awaited appearance from Joseph Morgan’s Klaus Mikaelson, but that doesn’t mean this is the end. Following the series finale, Plec promised that while this is the end of a chapter, it can be used to “launch the beginning of another chapter.”
As for other projects, Julie Plec is teaming up with TVD co-creator Kevin Williamson to create a TV adaptation of Ryan Parrott’s comic book, Dead Day, for Peacock. The duo will serve as co-showrunners and writers, though not much else has been released for it. She also has new Netflix series, Confessions of a Drug-Addicted High School Teacher, starring TVD vet Paul Wesley, and HBO Max’s The Girls on the Bus starring Christina Elmore, Melissa Benoist, and Natasha Behnam.

Paul Fitzpatrick Sr., a Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame football player at Bishop Timon and Maryland and a longtime coach at his high school alma mater, died Friday. He was 74.
He starred in football, basketball and baseball in high school before returning to coach football for 28 seasons, including an undefeated campaign in 1979 and two seasons ranked at No. 1 in The Buffalo News poll in 1983 and '85.
"Coach Fitz" touched the lives of many, including Charlie Comerford, the Western New York Maritime Charter School’s athletic director who had known Mr. Fitzpatrick since Comerford was a child.
“From a young age, he’s always been a role model,” Comerford said Monday. “It’s really hard to put it into words. Knowing him since I was so young, he was always the coolest guy in the room, the most handsome guy in the room, the most respected guy in the room, and the best athlete in the room.
People are also reading…
“He was just all these things, and he was also the most humble guy in the world. ... He meant the world to everyone and meant the world to me.”
As an athlete with the Tigers, Mr. Fitzpatrick earned an All-Catholic selection in football and basketball as a senior in 1966, along with being named All-Western New York in football. Mr. Fitzpatrick’s accolades continued as he earned the team MVP awards in football and basketball and led Timon to a Manhattan Cup title.
Mr. Fitzpatrick’s high school career earned him an opportunity to attend the University of Maryland on a full scholarship and he played in the 1967, 1968 and 1969 seasons. In three seasons, he played 29 career games at running back with 77 carries for 294 yards and a touchdown. He also made 17 receptions for 177 yards and two scores.

As a senior, he won the team’s “unsung hero” award and led the Terps in scoring with three touchdowns and two extra points.
“He embodied everything that a man is,” Comerford said. “He was a gentleman, treated everyone the right way, and those are things I’ll remember about him. The way he treated people, that’s something I’ll remember forever.”
When his college days ended, he returned to Buffalo and spent seven years at Baker-Victory High School as an assistant football coach. After his time at Baker, Mr. Fitzpatrick went home and joined the Tigers in 1978. In his first season with his alma mater, Timon won the Bishop Burke League championship.
Overall, Mr. Fitzpatrick holds the Timon record of 161 wins.
“I don’t think there’s a person in this world who would have a negative thing to say about Paul,” Comerford said. “You could interview 5,000 people and all of them would’ve willingly spoke glowingly about him.
"He made everyone feel like they’re the most important person in the world. He was a special guy. Everyone who knew him would have the same kind of opinion on him.”
He is survived by wife, Jeanne; daughters Kerry, Jenny and Molly; and six grandchildren .
His son, Paul Jr., who was a 13-year veteran of the Buffalo Police Department, died in August. A 1999 graduate of Timon, he was in the Timon sports hall of fame and an assistant coach. The family asked for donations to be made to the scholarship fund at Timon named in Paul Jr.'s honor.
Funeral services will be held at 10 a.m. Thursday at Our Lady of Victory Basilica. | https://buffalonews.com/sports/high-school/former-timon-football-player-and-longtime-coach-paul-fitzpatrick-dies-at-74/article_2cc4e83c-0c30-11ed-93cd-5b1658076123.html | 2022-07-25T19:23:18Z | https://buffalonews.com/sports/high-school/former-timon-football-player-and-longtime-coach-paul-fitzpatrick-dies-at-74/article_2cc4e83c-0c30-11ed-93cd-5b1658076123.html | false | 1 |
The Irish premier has pledged to respond to concerns raised by the brother of a Troubles victim about the case at a meeting in Dublin.
Taoiseach Micheal Martin was urged to “play with a straight bat” and look into the circumstances leading up to the murder of Ian Sproule in Castlederg, Co Tyrone, in 1991.
A representative of a victims’ group present at the meeting said that the Taoiseach appeared to show “significant empathy” when listening to John Sproule’s story.
The family of Ian Sproule believe that there was Garda collusion involved in the killing of the 23-year-old joiner.
Speaking after the meeting at Government Buildings on Monday, John Sproule said: “The Taoiseach listened to what I had to say and appeared to show a genuine connection with the issues I raised.
“He committed to take away what was discussed and to come back to me with advices on how matters might be progressed.”
He added: “I recognise the Taoiseach’s track record on issues connected with terrorism and criminal violence, he has always played with a straight bat and I would expect that he will want to do likewise in my brother’s case.
“I cannot rest unless and until I receive full accountability for the circumstances which led to Ian’s murder and how it remains that no-one has been held accountable.”
Representatives of the South East Fermanagh Foundation (SEFF) victims’ group also attended the meeting in Dublin.
SEFF director of services Kenny Donaldson said: “We leave Dublin today encouraged that possibly something might happen, the Taoiseach appeared to be genuinely interested in John’s story and demonstrated significant empathy when engaging with him.
“We will await to see what flows from today’s discussions, the Irish Government can be in no doubt now as to the needs of the Sproule families; needs which are legitimate and which should and must be delivered upon,” he said.
In a statement, a spokesperson said the Taoiseach was “pleased to have the opportunity to meet with John Sproule and the South East Fermanagh Foundation”.
“The Taoiseach once again repeated his condemnation of the appalling murder of Ian Sproule by the Provisional IRA, and urged anyone with information to come forward to the PSNI or gardai.
“He listened carefully to John’s presentation and said he would revert to him on the concerns raised.”
In November 2019, Minister for Foreign Affairs Simon Coveney met with a family member of Ian Sproule and the DUP’s Diane Dodds, then an MEP.
Following the meeting, Mr Coveney said there was a “good, honest” discussion on issues around trust and legacy, and that he hoped it would be one of several meetings he will be able to hold with the family.”

A young man whose community has been at the epicentre of the violence that has been raging between rival gangs in the troubled neighbourhood of Cité Soleil in the Haitian capital, Port-au-Prince, says that he goes to sleep and wakes in the morning to the sound of gunfire. Edwin*, is a youth leader in his community, part of a group which is supported by the UN Peacebuilding Fund.
«Since July 8th, there has been an intensification of violence in Cité Solei and especially in the area which I live in, which is called Brooklyn. There is heavy fighting in the streets and everyone is very stressed. We cannot leave our homes most of the time and there is no traffic coming in and out of the neighbourhood.
This causes a lot of problems especially the lack of food and water. I am sometimes able to share food with neighbours, but many people are going hungry. The small amount of drinking water that is available has tripled in price.
We have a greeting in our language, Creole, when someone leaves home, we tell them to be «pridan» or careful, but this expression has lost its meaning now because our life is so dangerous. You think you are safe at home but bullets know every pathway and back alley in our neighbourhood.
UNDP Haiti/Borja Lopetegui Gonzalez Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Cycle of fear, stress and despair If a friend or family member manages to leave the Cité Soleil, we begin to worry that they have been killed if we don’t hear from them during the day. This adds even more worry to our already traumatic life.
I go to bed and wake up to the sound of gunfire which is very stressful, but, even if the shooting terrifies me, I try and use the rhythmic sound of bullets being fired to lull me to sleep; this is the only way I can survive through this difficult period. Sometimes, you can use music to escape the constant shooting noise, but not when shots are being fired so close to your house; it’s just too loud.
My life now is a cycle of fear, stress and despair. I’m always experiencing at least one of these feelings and I just want them to stop, so I can get back to normality.
UN Haiti/Daniel Dickinson Youth in the troubled neighbourhood of Cité Soleil are encouraged to get together over social activities. Battling for a simple but normal life Despite this, I do have some hope and remain positive most of the time. The work I’m doing with my youth group Comite Consultatif des Jeunes is helping me to get through this difficult period.
The group organizes activities bringing young people from Cité Soleil, and two other neighbourhoods, Saint-Martin and Bel-Air, which are controlled by rival gangs. We bring hundreds of children together to enjoy sports, music or to play board games like chess.
We are working with young women and men to build friendships and support-networks across the broader community. In a way, as the fighting continues around us, we are battling for a simple but normal life, where you can walk the streets with friends, find a job or start a small business. Of course, it has not been possible to carry out any of these activities over the last two weeks.
Hear our voices I am committed to working with young people to improve their lives and I see myself as a leader. Being part of the committee gives me confidence and helps to empower me and the other nine members.
We want our voices to be heard outside Cité Soleil, because if no-one hears us nothing will change. If people living in the rest of Port-au-Prince or indeed anywhere in the world hear us, then we can’t be forgotten, and we can work together to change our lives for the better.

NASCAR announced on Monday that Joe Gibbs Racing will not appeal the disqualifications of the Nos. 11 and 18 cars at Pocono Raceway. Therefore, the results from Sunday will stand with Chase Elliott the winner of the M&M‘s Fan Appreciation 400.
Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch initially finished first and second, respectively, in Sunday‘s race, but were both disqualified when NASCAR found issues with the cars in post-race inspection. The DQs bumped third-place finisher Chase Elliott up to first place, giving the Hendrick Motorsports driver his fourth victory of the 2022 season.
RELATED: Full results from Pocono
NASCAR Cup Series Managing Director Brad Moran said the front fascia, or front nose, on both JGR entries was the source of the issues leading to the disqualifications. As a result, Hamlin and Busch were given credit for finishes of 35th and 36th, respectively.
Both Joe Gibbs Racing drivers are still within the 16-driver playoff field in the standings after Pocono. Hamlin has two victories this season (Richmond and Charlotte) and Busch has one (Bristol Dirt). | https://sports.yahoo.com/joe-gibbs-racing-not-appeal-125810108.html?src=rss | 2022-07-25T19:33:27Z | https://sports.yahoo.com/joe-gibbs-racing-not-appeal-125810108.html?src=rss | true | 1 |

Nobel laureate economist Amartya Sen was not present to receive the award as he was out of the country. His name was also not mentioned in the program.
Industrialists Radhe Shyam Goenka and Harshavardhan Neotia, classical instrumentalist Pt Debajyoti Basu, filmmaker Srijit Mukherji and football clubs Mohun Bagan, East Bengal, and Mohammedan Sporting were among the other recipients.
Twenty personalities were given the Banga Bhushan Samman. Among them were eminent doctor Monimoy Banerjee, poet Srijato Bandyopadhyay, actor and TMC MP Dev, and state Women's Commission chairperson Leena Gangopadhyay. Veteran journalists Jayanta Ghoshal and Debashis Bhattacharya were also given the award.

Forget about Jacob deGrom for a second.
He’ll pitch when he pitches, whether that’s in early August, well after the trade deadline, or some other faraway date that makes everyone even more queasy and skeptical.
The Mets have two games against the Yankees starting on Tuesday, and the man in line to start the first game has been exponentially more important to the Mets this year than his injured rotation mate.
Taijuan Walker, the Tuesday probable, has a 2.55 ERA, a tidy 1.09 WHIP, a nice 6.9% walk rate and is inducing a ground ball on 49.6% of the balls put in play against him. All of those numbers are the best of his career, and on a macro level, are one of the many reasons why the Mets have been able to sustain themselves without deGrom.
Among National League starters with 90 innings under their belt, only reigning NL Cy Young winner Corbin Burnes, this year’s favorite Sandy Alcantara and Dodgers’ breakout sensation Tony Gonsolin have a lower ERA than Walker. His 2.3 Wins Above Replacement ranks 11th in the NL, and according to FanGraphs, Walker’s splitter is the best in the game. That pitch, by FanGraphs’ estimation, has been 14 runs above average, outpacing Gonsolin, AL All-Star Shane McClanahan and splitter warlocks Kevin Gausman and Yu Darvish.
Any way you slice it, Walker has been tremendously valuable to the Mets this season. For the second straight season, he was stupendous in the first half. Last season, though, his 2.66 first-half ERA became a 7.13 in the second half. To avoid that, Walker and the Mets had the right-hander get checked out before making his first start of the second half on Tuesday. Walker has had minor problems with both his right knee and right shoulder in the recent past, both of which were examined during his checkup.
“I’ve thrown a lot of innings, so I just wanted to make sure everything is going well,” Walker said in the clubhouse on Friday. “Everything looked good.”
Walker’s 250.2 innings over the past two seasons are the most he’s thrown in a two-year span since 2016 and 2017. With at least ten more starts awaiting him in the season’s final months, the 29-year-old has a chance to greatly impact the pennant race.
Sporting a new hairdo — Walker showed up for the team’s series against San Diego with his puffy Afro twisted into braids — the game against the Yankees on Tuesday is his chance to start the second half on the right foot this year. The splitter should help, as he’s both trusting it way more than he did in 2021 and getting markedly better results on it. Last year, when he was throwing it just 14.1% of the time, Walker watched his splitter get rocked to the tune of a .255 batting average and .479 slugging percentage. Lefties hit it for power (four home runs, .500 slugging percentage) while righties had no problem hitting it for contact (.289 average).
Things have transformed this year, and it’s made a world of difference for Walker, who’s living up to his prospect hype from the early 2010s. Nobody has homered off his splitter this year, and it’s become his best strikeout pitch, accounting for 36 of his 73 punchouts. Along with Chris Bassitt and Carlos Carrasco, Walker has been gobbling innings like Pacman chasing after dots, but he’s also advancing to the next level of the game.
We’ll see what kind of adjustments he has in store for the second half of 2022. As the league gets more looks at his revamped split-finger, his slider could become the all-important third option. That’s a pitch that Walker didn’t throw at all until 2020, eight years into his MLB odyssey. Finding more changes and additions like that, which is a job that will also fall to pitching coach Jeremy Hefner, is the key to avoiding a second-half demise like he experienced last year.
As Walker embarks on that journey, his first stop is the Yankees, the only team that’s already scored 500 runs this season. He’s had varying success against their big names, holding Anthony Rizzo and Matt Carpenter hitless in 22 combined plate appearances, but DJ LeMahieu has seen him 30 times and spit out a .280 average, while Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton are 6-for-17 (.352) with three homers and six RBI.
It’s not hard to watch Walker and understand why he’s a good pitcher. When he’s good, his combination of mid-90s velocity and tight movement on his secondaries builds a chapel of strikeouts and grounders. When he’s bad, he allows 20 homers in 64.1 innings, the garish stat line from his second half in 2021.
The Mets cannot afford a repeat performance of that, and they’ll get a pretty good idea of what version of Walker they have when he battles the Yankees on Tuesday.

Which wireless computer monitor is best?
There are tons of TVs and PC monitors to choose from with wide-ranging features such as high dynamic range playback, high resolutions and high refresh rates. The vast majority of them require a wired connection, usually using an HDMI cable. But there are some situations, such as business conference rooms, that make it inconvenient or impossible to use a cable.
For those cases, consider a reliable, feature-packed wireless monitor. The Samsung M80B is the best since it sports a UHD resolution, integrated streaming services and dependable wireless connectivity.
What to know before you buy a wireless computer monitor
They work better than screencasting
You can use screen mirroring to send a copy of a device’s screen to many modern TVs. This feature works with most smartphones, tablets and laptops. However, it’s not the main purpose of most TVs, and, in many cases, the connectivity implementation is not very good. Wireless screencasting usually results in a highly compressed image that doesn’t look great and lags significantly behind the input device.
Wireless monitors are different. Since they’re intended specifically as wireless PC displays, you can trust that they’re easy to use, maintain a robust connection and don’t lead to tons of artifacts or other visual infidelity issues.
They aren’t great for gaming
While wireless monitors usually have less lag than TVs during screencasting, they still have a lot more input latency than a wired monitor. For that reason, any type of game that requires timing will be all but impossible to play. You could, in theory, still play simple games like board games or educational titles that don’t rely on reflexes.
They are great for business use
If you need to outfit a conference room with a TV that anyone can connect their laptop to with ease, a wireless PC monitor is worth considering. They’re generally engineered for wide compatibility and can maintain a more consistent connection than other wireless display solutions. They also tend to have fewer annoying ads and more easy customization options compared to smart TVs.
What to look for in a quality wireless computer monitor
Size and resolution
There’s a chance a wireless monitor will sit farther away from viewers than a typical monitor. In that case, you might want to get something that normally would be a bit large. For example, a 32-inch monitor is too big for many people’s desks. If you’re sitting four feet from it, though, 32 inches is a fine size.
On the other side of the coin, a high resolution isn’t quite as critical if you’re sitting farther away. Viewing a 1080p display from several feet away, you won’t be able to tell much difference between it and a 720p display.
Built-in streaming services
Many wireless monitors closely tread the line between computer monitor and TV. Some of the best sport an integrated operating system and apps, quite like a smart TV. Also, like a TV, you don’t have to use them. But that kind of technology can greatly improve the functionality and convenience of a display, especially if it’s pulling double duty for work and play.
Integrated voice assistants
While plenty of TVs offer voice control when searching for and playing shows, few of them offer full-fledged voice assistant support. In that sense, wireless monitors often resemble smart monitors, which in some cases are the same thing.
In addition to supporting assistant services such as Bixby and Alexa, some wireless monitors — namely those from Samsung — can even serve as smart home hubs for some smart protocols.
Wireless connectivity protocols
Most wireless displays use Wi-Fi to connect, which ensures enough bandwidth to transmit a nearly uncompressed image. But it’s not the only type of wireless connection. For example, Mac users or owners of Apple-based smart homes will appreciate Apple AirPlay compatibility for screen mirroring and streaming audio.
How much you can expect to spend on a wireless computer monitor
The most affordable ones only cost about $200, although they aren’t very big. You can spend as much as $600 on something with a 4K resolution and a built-in webcam.
Wireless computer monitor FAQ
Do portable monitors make good wireless displays?
A. Only in very specialized situations. Some portable monitors sport wireless connectivity, but it’s rarely more reliable than screencasting to a smart TV. Plus, portable monitors are small by necessity, which negates most of the usefulness of a wireless monitor. Nonetheless, if you need something that looks good and works on the go, a portable computer monitor can be a good choice.
Are wireless computer monitors good for watching movies?
A. For the most part, wireless displays are geared more toward functionality than entertainment. That doesn’t mean they look bad, but they won’t be able to bring out the absolute best in a 4K Blu-ray or anything mastered in HDR. For example, few wired PC monitors offer home cinema-level contrast levels and local dimming, so there definitely aren’t any wireless monitors that do. For casually enjoying streamed shows, though, a wireless monitor can work just fine, especially if it sports integrated streaming apps.
What’s the best wireless computer monitor to buy?
Top wireless computer monitor
What you need to know: It’s large with a high resolution and plenty of useful features.
What you’ll love: Its 4K resolution, dependable connectivity and long-term reliability make it the best high-dollar option. Features like integrated Alexa and Bixby voice control, plus the ability to serve as a SmartThings hub, make it perfect for smart homes. There’s even an integrated webcam, making this one perfect for working from home.
What you should consider: It’s relatively expensive and, in some cases, may have ads on the home screen.
Where to buy: Sold by Amazon
Top wireless computer monitor for the money
What you need to know: It’s clearer and better-looking than most of the competition but still doesn’t cost very much.
What you’ll love: At 27 inches, its UHD panel delivers a crisper image than most TVs. It’s treated to resist glare in sunny environments, offers 100-millimeter VESA mounting support and has 3 USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 points for connecting peripherals.
What you should consider: Since it’s not very big, it isn’t ideal for large rooms or viewing by large groups.
Worth checking out
What you need to know: There aren’t many super-affordable, compact monitors like this one, which makes a great secondary display or full-fledged smart TV for a small room.
What you’ll love: If you want one display that supports your laptop and late-night TV viewing habits, this one’s worth a look. In addition to Wi-Fi connections, it’s compatible with Apple AirPlay 2 and has most of the popular streaming services already installed.
What you should consider: The resolution and contrast levels leave a bit to be desired.
Where to buy: Sold by Amazon
Pull out: If you need to outfit a conference room with a TV that anyone can connect their laptop to with ease, a wireless PC monitor is worth considering.

The iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (EEM) is a very popular stock ETF which tracks companies in emerging market countries. The ETF is commonly used for asset allocation purposes in portfolios to gain exposure to the emerging markets asset class. Last week, a very large block trade occurred, which was likely a covered call trade. The position is likely meant to produce additional cash flow from holding EEM, beyond what can be collected from the standard dividend.

Chelsea Morgan and Tom D'Angelo
Local chefs Chelsea Morgan and Tom D'Angelo will open a new restaurant in the former Kitchen Table Bistro in Richmond with the financial support of silent partners, who purchased the historic brick building and the restaurant assets for an undisclosed amount. The property was listed with Pomerleau Real Estate at $750,000 for the building and $150,000 for the restaurant.
Morgan, 33, and D'Angelo, 36, will be co-chefs at Vermont Fine, which will offer "cozy, approachable fine dining," Morgan said. They hope to open for dinner by mid-September or early October after a light refresh of the interior.
The couple said they plan to follow in the successful tradition of Kitchen Table Bistro, which had a 19-year run under chef-owners Lara and Steve Atkins. The Atkinses closed their restaurant in November, citing personal reasons that included Steve's severe back injury.
Vermont Fine, D'Angelo explained, is "kind of a play on Connecticut casual." The Connecticut term, the couple said, indicates a dress code of Sperry boat shoes and a polo shirt, whereas Vermont Fine "is kinda like a Carhartt jacket and flannel," Morgan said.
"You can come as you are and enjoy the food," D'Angelo said.
"You can come here right off the farm," added Morgan, who grew up on the famous Jenne Farm in Reading.
With almost 40 years of combined experience in restaurant kitchens from New York City to Park City, Utah, to Burlington dining destinations such as Hen of the Wood and the Farmhouse Tap & Grill, the couple had been looking for their own restaurant. "We really want to create our own brand," Morgan said.
D'Angelo and Morgan most recently worked as chef and front-of-house manager, respectively, at Butter Bar and Kitchen in Burlington's New North End. Their stint there lasted just more than three months.
"We thought it was a great opportunity, but it wasn't a good fit," Morgan said.
Kitchen Table Bistro is "more a reflection of what we are as chefs: this atmosphere, this vibe, what we can do here," Morgan said. "There's just really good energy in this building. So many people in the industry have cooked here."
"So many birthdays and anniversaries have been celebrated here," D'Angelo added.
A draft Vermont Fine menu highlights local ingredients in dishes such as beef tartare with cured egg yolk and housemade chips; fresh, housemade ravioli filled with spinach, ricotta and egg; and a lamb burger with fried goat cheese, crispy shallots and roasted pepper aioli.
The couple hopes to host live music in the property's outdoor gardens and work up to growing some of their own produce on a one-acre plot belonging to one of their investors.
"We've got big shoes to fill, but we're not scared," Morgan said. | https://www.sevendaysvt.com/vermont/new-chef-owners-to-reopen-richmonds-kitchen-table-bistro-as-vermont-fine/Content?oid=36099603 | 2022-07-25T19:46:33Z | https://www.sevendaysvt.com/vermont/new-chef-owners-to-reopen-richmonds-kitchen-table-bistro-as-vermont-fine/Content?oid=36099603 | true | 1 |
Sens. Joe Manchin, a conservative Democrat from West Virginia, and Lisa Murkowski, a Republican from Alaska, have tested positive for COVID-19, they both announced Monday.
"This morning I tested positive for COVID-19," Manchin said. "I am fully vaccinated and boosted and am experiencing mild symptoms. I will isolate and follow CDC guidelines as I continue to work remotely to serve West Virginians."

Murkowski also tweeted our her diagnosis, saying, "After experiencing flu like symptoms I recently tested positive for COVID-19. I will be following guidance and advice from doctors and will be quarantining at home in Alaska while continuing my work remotely."

Meanwhile, a letter from President Biden's physician said his COVID-19 symptoms "have now almost completely resolved," after he tested positive last Thursday.
Manchin, the chairman of the Senate Energy & Natural Resources Committee, said earlier this month he would not support major climate change spending right now due to inflation, but said he is open to negotiations at a later time.
Manchin's position comes a little more than a year after President Biden pledged to cut carbon emissions in half by 2030.
Democrats are trying to advance several pieces of legislation this week before heading out on August recess. One of those is a reduced version of the president's economic agenda focused on healthcare spending. That measure is being passed through the process known as budget reconciliation, which would require all members of the Democratic caucus present to pass. So Manchin's absence on top of that of Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy, recovering from a fall, and the uncertain return of Delaware Sen. Tom Carper, who tested positive for COVID-19 last week, risks delaying that bill.
They are also attempting to pass a bill to boost domestic production of semiconductors, which has some Republican support, so it's unclear whether these Democratic absences are a hurdle or a roadblock for that bill.

LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Dozens of University of Michigan medical students walked out of a weekend ceremony to protest a speaker who publicly opposes abortion rights.
Dr. Kristin Collier, an assistant professor of medicine, was the keynote speaker Sunday at an annual event where new medical students are formally welcomed and given a white lab coat.
A video of some students walking out was posted to social media and has received more than 11 million views.
Collier didn't refer to abortion in her remarks, but she has shared her opinions on social media and in interviews.
“Holding on to a view of feminism where one fights for the rights of all women and girls, especially those who are most vulnerable. I can’t not lament the violence directed at my prenatal sisters in the act of abortion, done in the name of autonomy,” she said on social media earlier this year.
A petition signed by 340 medical students, including some of the new ones, had urged the university to drop Collier as a speaker.
Spokeswoman Mary Masson said the university “does not revoke an invitation to a speaker based on their personal beliefs.”
The ceremony “is not a platform for discussion of controversial issues,” and Collier “never planned to address a divisive topic as part of her remarks,” Masson said.
Collier didn't immediately respond to a Monday request for comment.
Dr. Joseph Kolars, a senior associate dean, said Collier was nominated to speak by members of a medical school student honor society. He told the audience that she is an “enormously popular teacher and physician.”
During her address Sunday, Collier offered philosophical advice to students about how to thrive in medical school. She opened by noting “the deep wounds our community has suffered over the past several weeks,” apparently a reference to the controversy over her appearance.
“We have a great deal of work to do for healing to occur,” Collier said.
The petition signed by her critics said it wasn't “simply a disagreement on personal opinion.”
"Through our demand we are standing up in solidarity against groups who are trying to take away human rights and restrict medical care,” students said of abortion rights.

CEDAR FALLS, Iowa (WHO) — Family and friends are leaning on each other to support a nine-year-old Iowa boy who survived a deadly shooting that killed both of his parents and his younger sister on Friday at Maquoketa Caves State Park.
Three campers were killed and another camper took his own life at Maquoketa Caves State Park in eastern Iowa, the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation reports.
The names of the victims have been confirmed as Tyler Schmidt, 42, Sarah Schmidt, 42, and Lula Schmidt, 6, all from Cedar Falls. Their bodies were found in their tent early Friday at the Maquoketa Caves State Park Campground, about 180 miles east of Des Moines.
According to a news release, authorities were called to the park in Jackson County on a report of a triple homicide at 6:23 a.m. Friday. Authorities immediately began searching for another unaccounted for camper, 23-year-old Anthony Sherwin. His body was located a short time later, dead from a suspected self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Mitch Mortvedt, assistant director of the Department of Public Safety’s division of criminal investigation, told The Associated Press on Saturday that the motive for the attack was still unknown.
“We don’t know what led up to this, what precipitated it,” he said, adding that so far, “the investigation has not revealed any early interaction between the Schmidt family and him.”
Adam Morehouse, Sarah Schmidt’s brother, said the family had no connection to Sherwin and he believed it was a “completely random act.” He added that while the boy, Arlo, was on the family camping trip, he isn’t sure where the boy was at the time of the shooting.
“He is with family and he is OK, but I have not had any interaction with him,” Morehouse said Saturday. “As far as I know, he was uninjured physically.”
The park is closed and is considered an active crime scene, the DCI says.
A GoFundMe account has been set up by family members of Sarah and Tyler Schmidt. The account has been confirmed as valid to Nexstar’s WHO by Cedar Falls Mayor Rob Green.
As of Sunday, over $136,000 has been donated to the GoFundMe.
On Friday, Mayor Green took to social media to offer his sympathy to the community. “Like many of you just hearing the news, I’m devastated,” he said.
In 2018, the Schmidts moved to Cedar Falls and had been active in the community ever since, Morehouse said. He said they loved the outdoors, and just got four pairs of snowshoes for Christmas.
“The best way to describe all four of them was the quintessential Midwestern family. They gave everybody everything they possibly could. They loved family … They enjoyed the outdoors, enjoyed the hiking — and this is just a question mark of ‘Why that campground and that campsite on that night?’”

It’s Monday and that means yet another edition of our Heavy on Jets mailbag column where our expert writers Paul ‘Boy Green’ Esden Jr and Michael Obermuller tackle the hottest NYJ questions of the week.
Training camp kicks off tomorrow and this week’s discussion will hit on what to expect from the 2022 rookie class, an alternate helmet reveal, offseason transformations, the latest on George Fant’s contract situation, and some 2021 roster makes that will turn into cuts this time around. Here’s a look back at our most recent mailbags:
- Week 48: Potential preseason extensions & trades, 2022 mentality.
- Week 49: Predicting 2022 starters that could be gone next year, first Pro Bowls & training camp standouts.
- Week 50: Strongest & weakest positional groups, moving on from recent draft picks & Zach Wilson’s cougar drama.
- Week 51: Multi-year contracts still on the market & most challenging positional cuts.
ALL the latest Jets news straight to your inbox! Join the Heavy on Jets newsletter here!
Training Camp Is HERE!
1. Training camp welcomes all players this week, but which rookie do you expect to dazzle fans this summer and which do you hope does?
Boy Green:
Cornerback Ahmad “Sauce” Gardner, for sure. He will be featured in exciting matchups every time he lines up whether that’s against a fellow rookie, Elijah Moore, or even Corey Davis. That will be must-watch action during training camp.
It is cliche, but iron sharpens iron, and these two groups should make each other better. Sauce will provide plenty of sauce for fans!
Who I expect and hope it will be is essentially the same, although I’ll throw in wide receiver Garrett Wilson as another one that I hope shows some pop and wow moments during camp.
Obermuller:
I’ve been dying for a legitimate pass-rusher on this Jets defense for a long time and I was a big-time Jermaine Johnson II homer on Twitter throughout the entire draft process, so I have to go with “J.J.” when it comes to the second half of that question. I HOPE Johnson is the next great edge rusher that I believed he was during the scouting phase of the spring.
Having said that, defensive ends don’t always have an immediate NFL impact — and we’re talking about training camp — so I’ll go a different direction on the EXPECT portion of this ask. Sure, it could be Gardner but I feel like the can’t-miss prospect of this group is running back Breece Hall.
First off, the RB position tends to be the easiest transition into the pros, and Hall was the top ball carrier in this draft class. The Jets system is tailored to his game and he’ll start to flash once those pads come on.
2. Give me one offensive player and one defensive player who made the roster last year that you expect to get cut (or traded) this year.
BG:
Interesting question; I’ll say Tevin Coleman is a guy who gets dumped on the side of the road. He is the perfect system and veteran guy that is good in the locker room and actually showed a lot more pop than I thought he had left last year, but it is a numbers game. You are going to keep Breece Hall and Michael Carter (duh), and then I think they keep it young with Zonovan Knight and Ty Johnson.
On the defensive side of the ball, I’ll say Isaiah Dunn. He was among the highest-paid UDFAs last year and the Jets loved him. He got some playing time and had his fair share of ups versus downs. However, once again a numbers game forces him out. Maybe they keep him on the practice squad, but another NFL team could certainly scoop him up.
MO:
I believe the offensive portion of this answer will occur via trade, and the two most likely candidates are backup quarterback Mike White and wide receiver Denzel Mims. A couple of weeks ago I might have gone with White but there’s way more chatter around the former second-round pick.
The Athletic’s Connor Hughes said he “find[s] it hard to foresee a situation where Denzel Mims is on this team Week 1” on the “Can’t Wait” podcast this week. Even a positive training camp could lead to a trade, per Hughes, as the Jets attempt to recoup as much draft capital as possible here. Remember, Mims was drafted for Adam Gase’s system, not Mike LaFleur’s.
On the defensive side, I have to admit that my first thought was also Dunn, a former priority UDFA, but I’ll switch it up for the readers and offer two alternatives. One is veteran special teams captain Justin Hardee. After signing Craig James this week — who is similar, but cheaper — the front office fired a warning shot at the underperforming ST ace.
The second is Tim Ward. I’m not sure if this technically counts since the former Kansas City Chiefs defensive end was a waiver claim, but it’s hard to see Ward sticking around considering the edge rusher position is overflowing with talent and experience.

Summer Buzz Around Florham Park
3. Offensive tackle George Fant has been vocal about wanting an extension. Considering the uneasiness at the position, why do you feel he has not received one after his stout 2021 campaign?
BG:
A variety of factors; age (just turned 30 years old), the question of LT versus RT (affects the money in those conversations), and what is going to happen next?
It’s the same question in a different way for defensive tackle Quinnen Williams. If the Jets wait one more year on both and they thrive, the Jets will have to pay a much larger sum of money. However, they would also have comfort in both situations knowing that they have confidence in what they’re paying for.
I think the Jets are weighing whether or not they should be proactive or not.
MO:
That’s a good way to put it — whether or not to be proactive or reactive. I think a lot of this ties back to Mekhi Becton and a knee surgery that’s flown way under the radar.
No, not Becton’s — that definitely didn’t fly under the radar — but Fant’s. It’s easy to overlook his late-season injury that led to an operation and while the veteran appears to be okay, he has not taken the field since.
Couple that with the fact that Becton hasn’t taken the field and you get that uncertainty in the question — but with even more layers. I feel the Jets don’t want to pay Fant the left tackle money he feels he deserves until they’re sure about Becton. Remember, Max Mitchell could project as the long-term starter at right tackle if the first-round talent retakes the blindside.
Unfortunately, all of that equals a lot of dried-up pens and blank pieces of paper.
4. We saw some major gains in Jets land the past couple of weeks between Braxton Berrios, Elijah Moore, and Jordan Whitehead, and each player had the photo/video to prove it. Whose offseason “transformation” was the most impressive?
BG:
I knew Braxton Berrios was ripped and it’s awesome to hear that Elijah Moore has put on some weight — that should help him stay healthy.
However, I’m a prisoner of the moment with the newest addition in Jordan Whitehead. I knew he was in good shape — most football players are — but my man is looking swole as all heck. Holy crap! What a physique… I’m jealous!
MO:
Yeah, this is an easy answer. While Moore’s new weight is the most encouraging, the most impressive reveal of “Gains SZN” is easily our new strong safety.
I mean, Whitehead looks like freaking Arnold Schwarzenegger in the photo above and that’s going to hype up any Jets fan ahead of the season. Can’t wait to see this guy absolutely obliterate a division rival in 2022.
5. The Jets dropped a stealth black alternate helmet this week, what did you think of it?
BG:
I wrote about the new helmet shortly after the news came out. My guy Paul Bruzzese said it best on Twitter: “Extremely dope [but] not what I wanted.”
As soon as Woody Johnson tweeted out the tease, I lost my marbles thinking we were getting the return of throwback uniforms. Then we got a brand new different-colored helmet. The two things can be both true.
It’ll be awesome to see this full black look three times this season and I hope that the throwback uniforms will eventually come down the pike.
MO:
I think the black and green color scheme with the matte finish is cool but I hate the logo. It looks like a dollar-store decal or even worse — the free decal you get from a new startup when you order something on Amazon.
Nothing against those companies, but the Jets are a freaking New York City football franchise. Get. It. Together.
We’re seriously putting stickers on our helmets? Is it a scratch-and-sniff too?! Not to mention it’s the newer logo that everyone hates. This was a total letdown from ownership — big surprise.

The event took place on the CT-32 highway, Roches exit. The affected person has been transferred to the Santa Lucía Hospital with multiple injuries.
A 30-year-old man was injured after the vehicle he was driving rolled several times on the CT-32 highway, at the Roches exit, in the municipality of Cartagena, according to sources from the Emergency Coordination Center.
The event occurred around 2:28 p.m., when several calls to the single emergency telephone number ‘1-1-2’ reported a traffic accident in which a car, overtaking, left the road and rolled over, being trapped inside the same its only occupant.
Firefighters from the Fire Extinguishing and Rescue Service of the Cartagena City Council, Civil Traffic Guard and a Mobile Emergency Unit (UME) of the Emergency and Health Emergencies Management ‘061’ were mobilized to the indicated place.
Once the wounded man was rescued, paramedics treated him and transferred him to the Santa Lucía University Hospital with polytrauma.

(NEXSTAR) – A 70-year-old woman was stabbed by the bill of a 100-pound sailfish that leapt out of the water and attacked her.
The massive fish jumped out of the water as her two companions were trying to reel it in on a boat off Florida’s Atlantic coast near Stuart on Tuesday, the Martin County Sheriff’s Office said.
The woman, who is from Maryland, was stabbed in the groin area by the fish’s pointed bill. Her friends applied pressure to the wound until she was able to get medical treatment. NBC News reports she was flown to a hospital for care.
Sailfish, which are native to Florida’s offshore waters, can grow up to 11-feet long and 220 pounds, according to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission. They are easily identified by their sail-like dorsal fin, as well as their spear-shaped upper jaw the impaled 70-year-old woman became all too familiar with.
National Geographic calls them the “fastest fish in the ocean” as they can swim up to 68 miles per hour.
“Sailfish are known for their fast runs, acrobatic jumps and head-shaking attempts to throw a hook,” the Fish and Wildlife Commission writes. “Sailfish tire easily and should be revived after a long fight to ensure their survival.”
Most people who catch sailfish release them, the commission says. Their meat is tough, so they aren’t a popular choice for eating.

BRUSSELS — European Union nations struggled Monday to find common ground on how to wean the bloc off its reliance on Russian natural gas, seeking to appease wary, stressed consumers at home while upholding unity as Moscow turns down the tap.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has weaponized gas exports to pressure the bloc into reducing its sanctions over the war in Ukraine or to push other political aims.
On the eve of an emergency meeting to discuss plans to cut EU gas use 15% over the coming months, envoys on Monday were still brokering a possible compromise that should keep all 27 nations in line by Tuesday night.
"This a still a work in progress," said a senior diplomat who asked not to be identified because the talks were still ongoing.
The bloc is bracing for a possible full Russian cutoff of natural gas supplies that could add a big chill to the upcoming winter, leaving nations like economic juggernaut Germany especially exposed. But some other EU countries, like Spain and Portugal, which have little dependence on Russian gas, do not want to force such a major cut on their people.
Russia has cut off or reduced gas to a dozen EU countries so far. On Monday, it said it will slash flows this week through a major pipeline to Germany by another half, to 20% of capacity. The Nord Stream 1 pipeline reductions further endanger goals to fill European gas storage tanks for winter as envoys haggled over EU plans.
It was what European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen had seen coming when she announced the plan. She is convinced that Putin will cut off natural gas exports to try to wreak economic and political havoc in Europe this winter.
"This is exactly the sort of scenario the president was referring to last week," said Commission spokesman Eric Mamer. "This development validates our analysis. We therefore hope that the Council will adopt an appropriate response" on Tuesday.
The diplomat said ambassadors had been working nonstop on the divisive issue and had sought to clip the powers of the executive European Commission, which under its plan, could sidestep member countries to impose such reductions.
"First and utmost" was the need to put EU nations in charge of deciding when such cuts should become mandatory, the diplomat said. Yielding some of their powers over energy policy to EU officials in Brussels has long been anathema in some national capitals. Hungarian officials were in Moscow last week, reportedly seeking additional energy imports.
Spain and Portugal have already said making mandatory reductions are a nonstarter. They noted that they use very little Russian gas compared with countries such as Germany and Italy and that there are scant energy connections linking them to the rest of Europe.
A one-size-fits-all solution seemed off the table Monday as envoys were looking at exemptions for island nations that are not connected to other networks, for Baltic nations that have close links with the Russian electricity grid, or nations whose industries depend heavily on gas imports.
Reducing EU gas use by 15% between August and next March will not come easy. The European Commission signaled its proposed target would require EU countries as a whole to triple the cuts they have already achieved since Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24.
Yet there is a fear of displaying a lack of solidarity, with the rest of the world — especially Russia — looking on.
"The world is watching very closely," the diplomat said.
During the war, the EU has approved bans on Russian coal and most oil to take effect later this year, but it did not include natural gas because the bloc depends on gas to power factories, generate electricity and heat homes.
The aim of the commission's proposals is to ensure, in case of a Russian cutoff, that essential industries and services like hospitals can function, while others would have to cut back. That could include lowering heat in public buildings and enticing families to use less energy at home.

Canara Bank on Monday reported a 72% year-on-year (Y-o-Y) jump in its net profit to Rs 2,022 crore for the quarter ended June on the back of a 24.5% growth in non-interest income to Rs 5,175 crore.
The bank reported a total income of Rs 23,352 crore, up 11.5% YoY. The operating profit rose 20.5% to Rs 6,606 crore. The net interest margin, a key measure of profitability, fell 15 bps sequentially to 2.78%.
Gross advances of the bank grew 14.5% YoY to Rs 7.84 trillion as on June 30, 2022. Loans to the retail, agri and micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME) segments grew 15%, while corporate lending rose 14%.
LV Prabhakar, MD & CEO, said the bank’s corporate book grew nearly 9% on a sequential basis in Q1. “We see a lot of traction as far as corporates are concerned. In the coming quarters also, apart from RAM (retail, agri and MSME) growth of more than 14%, we are expecting there will be a good growth (on a) Y-o-Y basis even in corporate credit.”
Total deposits of the bank stood at Rs 11.18 trillion as on June 30, 2022, up 9.4% YoY. The domestic current account savings account share stood at 34.3%, against 34.21% a year ago.
Provisions for the quarter stood at Rs 3,690 crore, up 6.7%. Slippages fell to Rs 3,606 crore in Q1FY23 from Rs 3,619 crore in the previous quarter.
Gross non-performing assets (NPAs) as a percentage of total advances fell 53 bps on a sequential basis to 6.98% and the net NPA ratio declined 17 bps to 2.48%. The bank made recoveries worth Rs 2,597 crore during the quarter. Upgrades were to the tune of Rs 756 crore, while loans worth Rs 2,225 crore were written off.
Prabhakar said the bank expects slippages of up to Rs 15,000 crore in FY23, with most of it coming from small-value retail, agri and MSME accounts. “We have guided at the beginning of the year that our recoveries will be more than that (slippages). We’ve said our slippage ratio will be less than 1.75%. So, the slippages that are likely in MSME have all been factored into that 1.75%,” he said. | https://www.financialexpress.com/industry/banking-finance/canara-bank-q1-profit-jumps-72-on-higher-income/2605683/ | 2022-07-25T20:18:11Z | https://www.financialexpress.com/industry/banking-finance/canara-bank-q1-profit-jumps-72-on-higher-income/2605683/ | true | 1 |
