DALLAS — Yes, those 7-foot-tall machines at Dallas Love Field are watching you. They want to make sure you’re wearing a mask if you’re boarding a flight or not parking too long at the curb if you’re picking up a returning traveler.
Love Field is testing two Security Control Observation Towers at the airport, one near baggage claim and another near security checkpoints, to figure out whether robotic assistants can both help customers get around and warn passengers who are breaking rules. The robots can also call airport security and operations in case more help is needed.
While not quite “RoboCop,” the machines, nicknamed SCOT, were installed a month ago to “determine if they are capable of efficiently supplementing current airport operations,” said Love Field spokesperson Lauren Rounds.
The robots look like many other kiosks at the airport with a touch screen, including wayfinding information, maps of parking garages and directions to ride-hailing and shuttle pickup. But SCOT is much smarter, capable of detecting what people are wearing and even whether they’ve got on a face mask.
Airports have been at the forefront of technology, including facial recognition and other biometrics, for years, a trend that worries privacy advocates who say there are few, if any, laws or guidelines about how emerging technology should be used. Amazon took criticism in 2019 after testing its Rekognition technology with police departments before deciding to ban law enforcement from using it two years later.
But private businesses and airports have been more aggressive, and the COVID-19 pandemic has spurred more emphasis on touchless interactions using computers. Fort Worth-based American Airlines uses facial recognition for some customers to check bags and airports such as DFW International Airport partner with the U.S. State Department for facial recognition technology for incoming passengers.
Surveillance technology hasn’t stopped progressing because the rest of the world was in the midst of a worldwide pandemic. In fact, more and more institutions and companies are using artificial intelligence to monitor spaces, said Adam Schwartz, an attorney for digital privacy rights group Electronic Frontier Foundation.
“It is concerning that an airport has installed a new system of artificial intelligence,” Schwartz said. “It raises a lot of questions about what that technology is doing.”
Love Field is one of two airports to start using the technology from the company Robotic Assistance Devices, said Steve Reinharz, the company’s CEO and founder. The other airport, which Reinharz said he was not able to disclose, uses a related technology from the company in parking lots to deter thefts and break-ins.
“This has more of a full-circle purpose to be a regular, physical deterrent,” he said. “That’s the direction the industry has to go because we have some significant labor issues.”
The robotic SCOT kiosks can detect passengers and behavior based on rules set by each user, such as the airport. For instance, people driving up to the curbside drop-off area late at night might get a series of verbal warnings that escalate in volume and severity. Finally, the machine can call police, notify on-site security or even allow someone to make an announcement remotely.
The machines can also detect flagged individuals based on what they are wearing, especially if they are in areas susceptible to crime, such as baggage claim, Reinharz said.
License plate-scanning cameras can issue warnings to suspicious vehicles or prompt cars to move along if they’ve been waiting too long in passenger pickup lanes.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the company said it also pushed a technology that can detect whether subjects are wearing face masks. Face masks have been a point of contention on airplanes but remain a federal mandate until at least April 18.
“The units currently make scheduled and detection-based announcements directed toward our passengers and visitors,” Rounds said. “Some of these focus on reducing vehicular congestion at our curb using license plate recognition and increasing federal mask compliance using facial recognition technology while others provide standard information.”
The airport isn’t paying for the kiosks now while it tests the capabilities, but Love Field did pay about $4,000 to have them shipped to Texas.

It's not often you need to show your physical Social Security card. If you have the nine digits of your Social Security number memorized, you rarely need to pull out your card from its hiding spot. But in some cases, it may be necessary to show it -- like when you're getting a new driver's license in some states, or if you're starting a new job.
But what happens if you've misplaced it or you've recently changed your name? Don't worry, you can get a replacement. But how you do it depends on why you need a new one.
We'll explain what you need to get a new Social Security card, and how to do it based on whether you need a new one with updated information or just a replacement without any changes. For more, here's when it's OK to give out your Social Security number.
The Social Security Administration gives you three ways to request a new Social Security card
You have several ways to request a new card: in person, online or through the mail. If you meet the requirements, doing it online may be the easiest way, but if you need to request a new card through the mail, the administration said to not send original primary documents that you should keep in your possession, such as your driver's license, your passport or your immigration documents.
Also, documents must be originals or copies certified by the agency that issued them. The administration won't accept photocopies or notarized copies.
If you're getting a new card in person or sending your documents by mail, make sure to also fill out Form SS-5 (PDF).
Which documents do I need to have to get a new Social Security card?
Whichever way you go -- online, in person at a Social Security office or through the mail -- you'll need documents to prove your citizenship, age and identity.
Proof of US citizenship: This can be your birth certificate or a US passport. This documentation is only required if you haven't already established citizenship with the Social Security Administration.
Proof of age: A birth certificate is best, but if you don't have one, the Social Security Administration may accept a religious record made before you turned 5 years old, a US hospital record of your birth or a US passport.
Form of identification: This can include your US driver's license, US passport or a state-issued non-driver ID card.
If you don't have any of these documents, the Social Security Administration may accept one of the following:
- Employee identification card
- School identification card
- Health insurance card (but not a Medicare card)
- US military ID card
How to request a new Social Security card without changes
The easiest way is to request a new card online, especially if you don't live near a Social Security office.
You'll need to create a My Social Security account to get started. Once you're signed in, you should see a link that says Replace your Social Security Card at the top.
After you click the link, you'll be asked a series of questions to determine if you're eligible to request a replacement card online. Finally, you'll need to verify your identity by answering several other questions, and then you'll electronically sign your name before submitting your request.
Here's who isn't eligible to request a card online:
- Those who live in Alaska, New Hampshire, Oklahoma or West Virginia.
- Those requesting a name change -- or any other change -- to their card.
- Those with a driver's license or ID card issued by a US territory, such as American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico or the U.S. Virgin Islands.
If you want to request a new card in person, here's where you can find a local office to schedule an appointment. And if you'd rather mail in your request, here's how to find the mailing address for your nearest office.
You'll need to complete and send in this form, whether you're visiting an office in person or mailing in your request.
How to get a replacement Social Security card if you've changed your name or other information
If you've legally changed your name for any reason -- for instance, marriage, divorce or court order -- you'll need to let Social Security know so you can get a corrected card. You can either take the required documents to a nearby Social Security office or mail them in. You can't request a new card with changes online.
As with requesting a new card with no changes, you'll need to show proof of US citizenship, proof of your legal name change and a form of identification.
When you get your new card, it'll have your same Social Security number with your new name.
How long will it take to receive your new Social Security card?
The Social Security Administration says it will take roughly seven to 10 business days to receive your new Social Security card if you applied online or in person. For those who submitted their request via mail, it could take between two and four weeks for the administration to process and return your documents.

- Credibility:
DOWNTOWN — Indigenous leaders are praising a group’s recommendation against restoring controversial Christopher Columbus statues to Chicago’s public spaces, while some Italian-American leaders insist the move isn’t final.
The city removed Grant Park’s Columbus statue in July 2020 after protesters tried to pull down the monument. Columbus statues in Arrigo Park and on East 92nd Street also were removed. Their fate has remained unclear since then, though a council to review the statues and other monuments recently recommended they not be restored, according to the Sun-Times.
The city created a monuments committee in August 2020 as debate raged over what should happen to the Columbus statues. Its members looked at every public memorial to determine if they were problematic and, if so, what should be done with them. Its work was mired in secrecy and delays, though members flagged dozens of monuments — including the three Columbus statues — as potentially problematic.
Then, in an unexpected move last month, Mayor Lori Lightfoot said she “fully expects” to return the controversial Columbus statue to Grant Park. Several members of the monuments committee were blindsided, the Tribune reported.
After the mayor’s comments, the Sun-Times’ report revealed the council had recommended sidelining all three of the city’s Columbus statues — and removing the Balbo Monument in Burnham Park. That monument honors an Italian fascist leader. That report has not yet been made public.
Those recommendations are a relief, said Les Begay, a member of the Diné Nation, co-founder of the Indigenous Peoples Day Coalition of Illinois and long a volunteer for the American Indian Center.
Begay met with mayoral representatives after Lightfoot’s comments about returning the statue to Grant Park, and her aides assured him it was “the monuments committee’s call” about what to do with the statues, he said.
“I’m really hoping that what was released as a speculation is truth. I have faith that is what’s going to happen,” Begay said.
But those who support bringing back the monuments feel differently.
The monuments council doesn’t “make decisions; we just make recommendations,” said Ald. Nick Sposato (38th), who is Italian American and serves on the 30-member monuments committee.
Pasquale Gianni, president of Avanti Group of Young Italian Americans, said none of the monument committee’s recommendations are binding.
“I’m not undermining the task that they were ultimately given,” Gianni said. “I think the makeup of that commission … there were a great number of people that were predispositioned to be anti-Columbus.”
Instead of removing Columbus statues and other monuments, Gianni thinks the city should instead erect plaques that acknowledge “differing interpretations of those legacies,” he said.
Gianni thinks a similar approach can be taken for the other dozens of statues flagged last year by the monuments committee for possibly being problematic.
Permanently removing the Columbus statues would be a “slap in the face” for Italian Americans, Gianni said. His organization remains hopeful Lightfoot will return them, he said.
“Let’s not let’s not delve into subtraction. … We should be in the business of addition,” Gianni said.
Ron Onesti, president of the Joint Civic Committee of Italian Americans, released a statement saying the organization “would not rest” until the statues are returned.
“No negotiations about this, folks,” Onesti said.
A spokesperson for the Mayor’s Office did not respond to questions about who will have final say over the fate of the statues.
The city’s process has “not been about a single statue or mural, but about creating a formal process that will reflect our values and elevate our rich history and diversity,” a spokesperson said in a statement. “Ensuring that our city’s symbols represent inclusivity and uplift the stories of Chicago remain paramount.”
If the city does follow the recommendation, Begay hopes the city will take the “natural next step” and change Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples Day – something he and other community organizers have advocating for years, he said. Lightfoot has previously resisted that change.
The monuments committee’s report will be released in coming weeks, city officials said.

ALAMO, Texas (ValleyCentral) — For the last six months, an Alamo man has been adjusting to a new life after contracting COVID-19.
Pepe Forina underwent a double amputation and shared his journey to recovery. In July, the father of two children, Forina tested positive for COVID-19, days later was admitted to the hospital.
“My breathing had gone down quite a bit, I was in the Covid unit for about two weeks,” said Forina.
Forina thought he would be home as soon as possible however that didn’t happen after his medical condition took a turn for the worse.
“A few days before August 11, they called her [my wife] and told her ‘he’s doing good. You know he’s gonna be alright.” However, Forina goes on to say later the hospital called her back and said “I wasn’t expected to make it through overnight.”
However, Forina remarkably made it through the night, surprising his own doctors like Dr. Federico Vallejo, a Pulmonary and Critical Care Doctor at DHR Health.
Dr. Vallejo said it isn’t uncommon to see these cases from COVID-19 patients like Forina, who suffers from Diabetes, Sepsis, Hypertension, along with a mixture of high-risk factors.
“COVID itself can cause blood clots, we know 15% will have it. Then the use of medications to try to protect the heart and the brain,” said Dr. Vallejo.
Forina said when his feet started to turn black doctors recommended amputating both legs below the knee.
During his hospital stay, Forina lost his father. He now keeps a picture of the last time the two of them talked by his bedside as motivation in therapy.
“I promised him that I would walk again,” said Forina.
As he is still working on that promise, Forina has reached some goals.
“In the morning I will get out of bed, get in my wheelchair and come outside,” he said.
He has turned his greatest challenge into a positive by using the power of his journey on social media to let others know of his story. He also hasn’t been alone in recovery with his wife right by his side.
“We took our vows for better or for worse for sick or poor and sure enough she’s been with me,” said Forina.
Forina is waiting to get prosthetics as his wounds heal and the minute he does he will give thanks to his religion and his dad.
If he could go back he said he would get the vaccine and hopes others can learn from his experience.
“It’s a personal choice if you want to get it done, get it done. If you don’t want to get it done, don’t get it done; but if you don’t do it [get vaccinated] there’s consequences,” said Forina.

Rajasthan vs Centre: Gehlot, Shekhawat engage in war of words over ERCP
Gehlot targeted Shekhawat that he was not able to get the ERCP the status of a project of national importance from the Centre.
Published: 12th April 2022 12:04 PM | Last Updated: 12th April 2022 12:04 PM | A+A A-
JAIPUR: A war of words broke out between Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and Union Jal Shakti Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat over the Eastern Rajasthan Canal Project (ERCP) on Monday.
Gehlot targeted Shekhawat that he was not able to get the ERCP the status of a project of national importance from the Centre.
In response, Shekhawat said Gehlot's statement reflects his anguish over his son Vaibhav Gehlot's defeat in the Lok Sabha elections.
He alleged that the chief minister has not forgotten the defeat till date.
The entire controversy erupted after Gehlot on Sunday asked Shekhawat to get the prime minister declare the ERCP a project of national importance.
He also accused the Union minister of being involved in an attempt to topple his government in the state two years ago.
"I sense anguish of the defeat of his son in Jodhpur in Shri Ashok Gehlot's statements. Till today, he has not forgotten the result of Jodhpur Lok Sabha seat. Since then he considers me his worst enemy. But, I sympathise with him," Shekhawat said.
He alleged that Gehlot is not only misusing government machinery to instigate him but also making absurd statements himself.
"I have challenged him to prove their concocted allegations against Modi ji but instead of providing proof he wants to push the main issue in the debate," Shekhawat said.
He said, "Like him (Gehlot), his method of politics has become irrelevant. He should now retire from politics, the people of his party also want the same."
Gehlot targeted Shekhawat over the ERCP, saying he is not doing anything for the state despite being a Union minister.
"It is beyond comprehension that if a desert and water-stressed state like Rajasthan does not get the status of a national project (for ERCP), then which state will get it?," he said.
The national project status to ERCP would enable its fast completion and hence 13 districts of east Rajasthan would get drinking and irrigation water, Gehlot said.
The project aims to harvest surplus water, available during the rainy season in rivers in southern Rajasthan such as Chambal and its tributaries including Kunnu, Parvati, Kalisindh, and use it in 13 south-eastern districts of the state where there is a scarcity of water for drinking and irrigation, the chief minister said.
"With limited resources of the state government, this project will take 15 years to complete and the cost of the project will also increase. If the central government gives it the status of a national project and if the grant is received, the work will also be completed faster and at a lower cost," he tweeted.
"Our intention is that the work of ERCP should be completed soon, so that 13 districts of East Rajasthan can get drinking and irrigation water. The state government has so far spent about Rs 1,000 crore on ERCP and has proposed Rs 9,600 crores in this year's budget," he added.

New York has a history of putting things in its waters only to regret it years later. The Adirondack Park Agency should remember that legacy when it votes Thursday on a proposal to dump a herbicide in Lake George, one of America’s most pristine bodies of water.
There is no emergency that requires such a controversial and potentially consequential action — in a lake in which herbicides have never been allowed, no less. And there are a host of reasons to give this idea much more thorough study.
The Lake George Park Commission wants to try ProcellaCOR on a trial basis in two locations on the east side of the lake, Blair’s Bay and Sheep Meadow Bay, to see how effective it is in eliminating dense infestations of invasive Eurasian watermilfoil.
The plant can spread profusely, ruining swimming and boating and overwhelming native plants and fish. The commission has been dealing with it for years through hand harvesting, a method that comes without chemical risks but is more labor-intensive and costly — averaging $15,000 to $20,000 per acre, according to the commission, compared with ProcellaCOR treatments averaging $8,000 per acre.
That savings, however, could come with potentially high costs.
ProcellaCOR has had Environmental Protection Agency approval for barely four years. With such a short track record, its use may have consequences still to be understood through experience. A lake that’s a source of drinking water for thousands of people and an economic cornerstone of the region is hardly the place to conduct this sort of large-scale experiment.
And large-scale it will be, however limited the intended area. ProcellaCOR is recommended for quiescent or slow-moving waters, which Lake George is not. What’s poured into a couple of bays is likely to be spread far and wide by the lake’s currents, warns the Lake George Association, an environmental protection organization.
That means the herbicide could end up killing a lot more plant life, not just Eurasian milfoil but native varieties, too, like alternate-flower watermilfoil, which is on the state’s endangered species list. A large-scale die-off of plants would have broad consequences for the lake, adding nutrients to the water, potentially fueling algae blooms that can choke waterbodies, consume oxygen, kill off other aquatic life, and in some cases release toxins that make the water inhospitable for swimming or unsuitable for drinking.
How long ProcellaCOR would remain in the water is also an issue. While its half-life is only a few days in shallow water, it may persist for weeks or months in deeper water like Lake George’s. And resistance is also an issue; ProcellaCOR’s literature notes that after a few applications, it may be necessary to use other herbicides to kill what this one no longer can.
In short, there are a whole lot of reasons to not plunge into this experiment. A far more prudent approach would be for the APA to vote it down and allow the commission to engage with the Lake George Association and local university programs specializing in water quality issues.
PCBs in the Hudson. PFOA in Hoosick Falls drinking water. PFAS in groundwater near airports. On and on goes the list of damage to a resource that’s critical to our very lives. Future generations will scorn a decision that risked a lake, supposedly to save it.

Nigeria’s Angelic, velvet-voiced gospel singer, OSINACHI NWACHUKWU famous ‘Ekwueme’ melody maker dies of Domestic Abuse
…Police picks up run-away husband from hideout, in handcuff facing prosecution for murder
*‘My 42-year-old blood sister, Osinachi was daily tutored, abused by her husband who seized her funds from gospel music and turned her into a punching bag. We advised her several times to leave her marriage or be separated from him to stay alive, but she always assured us her husband was changing and that God hates divorce’-Favour Made, deceased elder sister
*“The suspect, Peter Nwachukwu, is now in police custody. We have arrested him. He is going to face the full wrath of the law”–spokesperson of the FCT police command, DP Joseph Adeh
*“My father, Pastor Paul Enenche, founder of Dunamis International Gospel Centre not aware of the domestic violence Osinachi was subjected to by her husband”-Deborah, daughter
*“I will surely get justice for Osinachi Nwachukwu”-Women Affairs minister
*BY EUNICE AMAECHI/RELIGIOUS Reporter
AT 42-YEARS, she was already famous globally in the religious circle, as her fame stretched all over Africa to Europe and Western nations. OSINACHI NWACHUKWU, an Angelic voice-velvet gospel singer loves God and hates divorce. Her popular gospel hit music titled ‘Ekwueme’ brought her national and international award recognition as the song reverberates and emotionally meets people’s spiritual needs. In less than 48 hours, her husband, Peter, a notorious, violence-prone man quenched life out of Osinachi as he allegedly beat her to death for no sane reason. The suspect initially went into hiding, lied over the phone to the family of the wife on the cause of her death, but was finally ‘fished-out’ from his hiding, arrested, handcuffed now facing prosecution.
Nwachukwu was arrested by men of the Lugbe police division on Sunday, April 10 after the brother of the late singer reported a case of suspected homicide to the police. This comes amidst reports he has over the years subjected late Osinachi to severe beatings.
The spokesperson of the FCT police command, DP Joseph Adeh on his part said the suspect is now in police custody. She explained he was arrested on grounds of suspected culpable homicide and that investigation into the matter is ongoing.
Unconfirmed reports claimed that late Osinachi was placed on life support after her husband kicked her on her chest during a recent attack on her. She sadly died on Friday, April 8 at age 42.
Sister Sinach who is known for her angelic voice is popular for the track, ‘Ekwueme’.
*OSINACHI’S DEATH: ‘PASTOR ENENCHE WAS NOT AWARE’
Dunamis International Gospel Centre founder, Pastor Paul Enenche’s daughter, Deborah, has reacted to the death of singer, Osinachi Nwachukwu.
Deborah disclosed that her father had no knowledge of the physical abuse Osinachi Nwachukwu experienced in the hands of her husband, which led to her death. Watch Osinachi’s video here.
In a post shared on Facebook, Enenche noted that her father has advocated against unhealthy marriage, adding that everything was done to ensure Osinachi was removed from her situation.
She wrote: “My father has always been an advocate for removing oneself from a deeply unhealthy marriage. It is spread across the fabric of his ministry the clear fact that he has always ensured the weak are protected. It is not different in this situation.
“Everything was done to ensure the departed was removed from her situation and in lieu of that, she was cared for as much as possible. Bear in mind that there was no knowledge of the physical abuse. If such had come to light, we wouldn’t be here.“
She promised to ensure that justice is served and the husband faces the full extent of the law.
Enenche assured that there will be many measures taken to protect the children and the family of the late singer.
Her post read, “I have been unable to sleep the past few days due to my fury at the untimely and avoidable exit of a generational voice. She inspired me to chase after God. I can’t express how much shock I experienced on hearing. What’s worse is that I didn’t know the actual background facts of her life as I don’t indulge in gossip or poke into other people’s lives.
“That being said, I truly wish I had known her better. I wish I could have done more for her. I wish I had been aware of all the pain she experienced. I will do what I am able to now I know the facts.
“It’s also came to my attention that many who knew her personally were not entirely privy to her situation. It’s even more disheartening to know, from an account of her twin sister, that she wouldn’t let her spiritual father be made aware of the gravity of the abuse she suffered. This, therefore, informs how I address things.
“There is so much to be said yet so much discretion is needed. I am however not one who knows how to stay mute on issues that potentially affect me and those around me. I also have a fiscal responsibility to the young people who look up to me as well as my role in both the body of Christ and society.
“That being said, in order to not be misconstrued. I will keep my opinions brief;
“1. The deceased was very isolated from loved ones. Much of what happened, in the end, could have been avoided if she hadn’t been marooned from the ones who cared for her most. I believe she not only passed due to the compendium of physical hurt and pain; she died of a broken heart. I will personally do my best to ensure that the offending party in the equation is punished to the fullest extent of the law. He will not go scot-free. There will be many measures taken to also protect the children and her family as well.
“2. Many are quick to jump to conclusions on things they know nothing about. The collective approximate shock we feel is not compared to that of the pain of people who have been so heavily involved both physically, financially, spiritually and even legally in trying to extricate someone from a truly nightmarish situation that could only really be absolved by the parties involved.”
*I’ll get justice for Osinachi Nwachukwu, Women Affairs minister vows
Nigeria’s Minister of Women Affairs, Dame Pauline Tallen, on Monday, vowed to get justice for the late popular gospel artiste, Osinachi Nwachukwu. The artiste died on Friday after spending days at an undisclosed hospital in Abuja. Colleagues of Osinachi, who was a lead singer at the Dunamis International Headquarters, Abuja, accused her husband, Peter Nwachukwu, of beating her.
Reacting to her death on Monday, the minister noted that with the singer’s death, “it is now truly obvious that violence knows no class or creed”.
She stated this in a statement she personally signed and titled, ‘The untimely death of one of Nigeria’s finest gospel artists’.
Tallen assured that the ministry “under my watch will prosecute this matter to get justice for Osinachi”.
The full statement read:
“As with every news of domestic violence which spreads like wildfire, I was woken up to the news of the untimely death of one of Nigeria’s finest female gospel Artistes Osinachi Nwachukwu who was said to have died as a result of cancer on 8th April 2022.
“This could have passed as one of those news until new facts started emerging that she died as a result of domestic violence. Then you begin to wonder and ask how such a talented and self-accomplished individual who loved God has been a victim?
“It is now truly obvious that violence knows no class or creed. It could have been that she cried out to her Church or Pastor or friends or family, but all she got was “it is well” and now that the inevitable has happened, they are speaking out. It is NOT WELL if we carry on with the traditional ways of sweeping bad behaviour under the carpet.
“In Nigeria today, Domestic Violence is a crime under the Violence Against Persons Prohibition Act (2015). The Federal Government of Nigeria and the States have declared zero tolerance to Gender-Based Violence. And so, the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs under my watch will prosecute this matter to get justice for Osinachi. It is obvious that her children also need psyco-social support to heal from this trauma if it is true that their Father will go the whole length of tying her up and asking the children to flog her with a cane. This is unbelievable and MUST be condemned in all its ramifications.
“The Ministry working with relevant authorities will set in motion the mechanism to rehabilitate these children so that they do not grow up damaged and assume that such acts are normal thereby poisoning our society.
“I know that more women are going through such traumatic experiences, please give them a listening ear, provide wise counsel and save them from untimely death. I am not advocating for divorce for those who will misunderstand me! All I am asking is that we stand up to the truth where necessary and promptly so as to save a life when we have an opportunity to do so. We cannot continue to keep losing our young women to mentally unstable young men all in the name of marriage. Life first before anything.
“Our Religious and Traditional institutions, as well as our immediate families, must join us in this fight to rid our society of such acts before they become fatal.
“May the soul of Osinachi and all those who have lost their lives as a result of domestic violence rest in peace. Please if you see something, speak out, so that together we can save lives.”
CERTAINLY, Good journalism costs a lot of money. Without doubt, only good journalism can ensure the possibility of a good society, an accountable democracy, and a transparent government. We are ready to hold every corrupt government accountable to the citizens. To continually enjoy free access to the best investigative journalism in Nigeria, we are requesting of you to consider making a modest support to this noble endeavor.”

Off-Road Cycling Fundraiser in Massachusetts' Berkshires Will Raise Money for Cancer Research and Treatment This Fall
BOSTON, April 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, the Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC), the two-day bike-a-thon that pioneered the athletic fundraising industry, announced its new charitable cycling event: PMC Unpaved, a first-of-its-kind, one-day, off-road gravel ride that will take place in Massachusetts' Berkshires this fall. As a spoke in the wheel of the organization's yearly fundraising campaign, PMC Unpaved will bring together 500 new and existing PMC riders for a fun and challenging off-road cycling experience to raise funding for lifesaving cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (Dana-Farber).
Gravel riding interest dramatically increased through the pandemic, with worldwide gravel bike sales increasing 100 percent from 2019 to 2021.1 On the heels of a record-breaking $64 million fundraising campaign in 2021, the PMC saw an opportunity to lean into this booming cycling trend and introduce a new ride for its community and beyond. By bringing new riders into its mission and adding another event for its dedicated alumni to participate in, the PMC will increase its fundraising potential and continue to grow as the nation's most successful cycling fundraiser.
"We are always looking for new ways to increase our impact in the fight against cancer, and as we saw an uptick in off-road cycling interest, we knew we had to put a PMC spin on it," said Billy Starr, PMC Founder and Executive Director. "Taking our best-in-class PMC operation established over the last 43 years and translating it to a new event with gravel riders inspired by our mission has been an invigorating experience. We're excited to get off the road for our inaugural PMC Unpaved ride this fall."
The inaugural PMC Unpaved ride will take place on Saturday, October 1, 2022, and includes two gravel routes, 31- and 50-mile options starting and ending at Camp Mah-Kee-Nac in Lenox, Massachusetts. As with all PMC cycling events, 100 percent of every rider-raised dollar from PMC Unpaved will go directly to Dana-Farber and the Jimmy Fund, supporting immediate patient care needs and breakthrough cancer discoveries. The PMC, which has contributed $831 million to the fight against cancer since 1980, is Dana-Farber's largest single contributor, accounting for more than 55 percent of its Jimmy Fund's annual revenue.
For those interested in participating in PMC Unpaved, registration opens to the public on Tuesday, May 3. PMC Unpaved is co-presented by the Red Sox Foundation and M&T Bank. To learn more about PMC Unpaved, to register for this year's event or donate, visit unpaved.org. Connect with #PMCUnpaved through the Pan-Mass Challenge on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn.
About the Pan-Mass Challenge
The Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC) is a bike-a-thon that today raises more money for charity than any other single athletic fundraising event in the world. The PMC was founded in 1980 by Billy Starr, who remains the event's executive director, an annual cyclist and a fundraiser. The PMC has since raised $831 million for adult and pediatric patient care and cancer research at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute through the Jimmy Fund. The event donates 100 percent of every rider-raised dollar directly to the cause, generating 55 percent of the Jimmy Fund's annual revenue as Dana-Farber's single largest contributor. The PMC has successfully melded support from committed cyclists, volunteers, corporate sponsors and individual contributors, all of which are essential to the PMC's goal and model: to attain maximum fundraising efficiency while increasing its annual gift. The PMC's hope and aspiration is to provide Dana-Farber's doctors and researchers with the necessary resources to discover cures for all cancers.

LEXINGTON (KT) — Kentucky All-American Rhyne Howard was speechless after she was selected as the No. 1 pick in the WNBA Draft on Monday night.
“To go first, I don’t even have words for it right now,” she said. “I’m still kind of shaking. But it is super exciting, and I’m proud of what I’ve done, proud of myself, and thankful for everyone that’s been on this journey with me and that’s helped me to get here.”
The University of Kentucky senior became the first player in school history chosen as the No. 1 pick in the draft when the Atlanta Dream made the first pick to open the draft.
“Rhyne is a versatile wing who can score the ball in a variety of ways,” Atlanta General manager Dan Padover said. “Her athleticism and basketball IQ will be the backbone of her future success in this league. She’s a great kid from nearby and we think she will be a key piece for the future of this basketball team.”
Atlanta coach Tanisha Wright agreed and is looking forward to adding Howard to the team roster.
“Rhyne is a special talent with a multi-faceted skillset, she’s going to be a great addition to our team,” she said. “She has a quiet competitiveness that I love, and I think the level of play in our league will bring something special out of her which I’m really excited to see.”
Howard plans to carryover her competitive nature on to the next level.
“I just want to do that by my competitive spirit and the will to never give up and always fight and just maintain my composure and stay calm, cool, and collected,” she said. “I think that’s what really helped me to become successful and I just really want to have an impact on the team, like when I get there, and just continue to make everyone better.”
Howard, a three-time All-American, finished her career with 2,290 career points and joined Valerie Still and Dan Issel as the only players — male or female - to score more than 2,000 points in a career. Howard averaged double figures in all four seasons with the Wildcats and averaged 20 or more points per game in her final three seasons, including 23.4 points per game as a sophomore.
The versatile guard averaged 20.5 points and 7.4 rebounds per game as a senior and helped lead Kentucky to its first Southeastern Conference Tournament championship for the first time in 40 years. She scored 18 points in a 64-62 upset of eventual national champion South Carolina in the tourney finale. She scored 88 points during the team’s successful four-game run in the tournament.
Although she was projected to be one of the top players in the draft prior to the season, Howard stayed focused on “where my shoes where.”
“I knew that wouldn’t have been possible if I was focusing on the next level, which was months to come so early,” she said.

Homebuyers stymied by fewer homes, high prices, rising rates
By ALEX VEIGA
AP Business Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) — America’s housing market has grown increasingly frenzied, and prices are out of reach for many buyers, especially first-timers. This spring, traditionally the busiest season for home sales, is more likely to deliver frustration and disappointment for aspiring homebuyers than it is homeownership. The number of homes for sale nationally remains near record lows, fueling fierce competition among buyers vying for fewer homes. From Los Angeles to Raleigh, North Carolina, it’s typical for homes to sell within days of hitting the market. Bidding wars are common, often driving the sales price well above what the owner was asking. Rising mortgage rates further complicate the homebuying equation this year.

T-Setu turns into a parking lot
Therefore, in the absence of a parking lot, devotees visiting the shrine in large numbers are forced to park their vehicles on both sides of the bridge resulting in traffic congestion.
Published: 12th April 2022 05:41 AM | Last Updated: 12th April 2022 05:41 AM | A+A A-
CUTTACK: The recently completed T-Setu over Mahanadi river connecting famous tourist spot Singhnath Pitha at Gopinathpur in Badamba block of Cuttack district, has reportedly turned into a parking lot for people. The 3.4 km-long bridge is said to be the longest bridge of the State, built at a cost of `111 crore, and was inaugurated by Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on December 20, 2022. The bridge was supposed to facilitate seamless movement for around five lakh people of the region besides improving agriculture, business and tourism activities, also benefitting devotees visiting the Singhnath Pitha.
After the shrine was declared a tourist spot, the Tourism department has undertaken several beautification steps but are yet to set up a parking place in the premises. Therefore, in the absence of a parking lot, devotees visiting the shrine in large numbers are forced to park their vehicles on both sides of the bridge resulting in traffic congestion. Locals have urged the Tourism department to provide a parking place, also demanding power supply to the shrine and lights on the bridge.

RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — Sports betting is heating up, and that means the scammers are out in full force.
Scammers are using some new tactics to trick you out of your money, and the Better Business Bureau shared what you should be on the lookout for if you take part in sports betting.
“Con-artists are posing as self-proclaimed handicappers who use insider information to place guaranteed bets on upcoming games,” the BBB says.
But don’t fall for it.
The BBB shares that those guarantees and the information the scammers claim to have is all fake.
“These ‘scandicappers’ had no intention of ever providing a refund or free picks. And their ‘insider information’ is fake, too,” the BBB states.
The BBB said the best way to not get tricked into this scam is to avoid sports handicappers all together, and if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is—and bettors should think twice before agreeing to it.
The BBB also warns to be wary of “tempting ads, email spam, or text messages,” too.

Our human right to defend our lives in NY (and NJ) MUST be recognized! As it is in the rest of the USA
We MUST have Constitutional Carry recognized.
We MUST have Stand Your Ground as law.
The 2nd Amendment in The Bill of Rights to our US Constitution, GUARANTEES every person has a RIGHT TO KEEP (have) AND BEAR (carry) ARMS. Other wording in 2A “Militia” any able bodied male, service in a Militia is NOT a requirement, it is an Individual right (not collective), “Regulated” means equipped, in proper working order NOT gov rules “Shall not be infringed” means what it says. 14th Amendment guarantees equality!!
The right to keep and bear arms was not given to us by the government, rather it is a pre-existing right of “the people” affirmed in The Bill of Rights.
See DC v Heller, McDonald v Chicago, Caetano v Mass and SCOTUS decision in June 2022 for NYSRPA v Corlett/Bruen

FIFA+ — the free OTT streaming service announced by the international governing body for football — is now available globally including in India. Launched as a streaming platform not unlike Disney+ Hotstar and Amazon Prime Video, the service allows you to tune into special content including documentaries and features on Ronaldinho, Dani Alves, Ronaldo Nazário, Romelu Lukaku, Lucy Bronze, Carli Lloyd, and more. You can also check live statistics and updates for ongoing matches. FIFA+ will also give users access to live domestic league games, along with access to over 29,000 men's matches and 11,000 women's matches, according to FIFA.
Here's everything you need to know about FIFA+, from how to access the service and what's currently available to view on the platform.
What is FIFA+?
The newly announced FIFA+ service is a digital platform designed to provide access to live football matches from every corner of the world, interactive games, news, tournament information, and other video content. FIFA is touting the service as a way to ‘democratise' football. The site's features appear to be completely free at the moment, and are supported by promotions for FIFA's official sponsors.

How to access FIFA+
Access to the FIFA+ streaming service is free for all users. Football enthusiasts can sign up on the official website and create a FIFA ID to log into the service. Signing up only requires you to provide an email and a password. However, Gadgets 360 was able to access some content without registering for an account.
FIFA+ is already available across the Web and on mobile devices. Users can access FIFA+ content on the official website or download the official app for Apple and Android smartphones and tablets. There are no fees to sign up or access content as the service is free to stream.
Currently, content is available in English, French, German, Portuguese, and Spanish — FIFA says six more languages will be added in June.
FIFA+ Match Centre, Gaming, and News
You can access a lot of information across various competitions and all six confederations for both men's and women's football. This includes match statistics including the latest results, live match scores, group tables, and more. You can also access FIFA+ Trivia, which lets you test your football knowledge from of some of the most iconic players to captains of different World Cup teams.
Match Center on FIFA+ gives you shot-by-shot updates of live matches as well as older events

The news section lets you read stories and news features on football, or watch highlights of matches. This section appeared to be updated with the latest football news stories of the day, along with highlights of recent matches. FIFA+ also has dedicated sections for women's football, the upcoming FIFA World Cup 2022 Qatar, and more news stories from the FIFA+ Archive.
Streaming content currently available on FIFA+
At the time of launch, FIFA+ has more than eight video titles to watch, including Ronaldinho: The Happiest Man in the World, a 90-minute film on the story of the player's life from the streets of Brazil to becoming one of the most popular football players of all time, Croatia: Defining a Nation, a feature-length documentary on a group of friends who became world famous in the face of extreme adversity.
In addition to documentaries and features, FIFA+ also allows you to access season 1 of Captains, an eight-part series that is set in the backdrop of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022. You can follow six captains from Croatia, Jamaica, Lebanon, and Brazil, as they lead their teams through the World Cup. There's also Dani Crazy Dream, a six-episode documentary series featuring Dani Alves, and Golden Boot, a four-episode docuseries on the leading FIFA World Cup goal scorers.

If you just want to watch some light-hearted content featuring your favourite football stars, you can also watch HD Cutz, an original eight-part docuseries with barber Sheldon Edwards. The series discusses fashion, food, music, and a slight amount of football, and the first episode features Manchester United stars Paul Pogba and Aaron Wan Bissaka.
Live match streaming and FIFA+ Archive
FIFA+ has ambitious plans for streaming content and plans to bring unserved competitions from around the world in men's women's and youth football. You can already stream a lot of live match content from the website. The quality of the video stream is adjusted automatically depending on your internet connection, as is the case with all OTT apps. According to FIFA, by the end of 2022, users will have access to 40,000 live games per year from 100 member associations across all six federations.
The streaming platform also lets you relive some of the best moments of football, with access to more than 2,000 hours of archive content on the FIFA+ Archive. This includes full-match replays, highlights, goals and more, with access to more than 2,500 videos going back to the 1950s, which appears to be a good choice for reliving nostalgic football memories over the years. The currently featured match on the FIFA+ Archive is the full replay of the Italy vs Germany final match from the 1982 Men's World Cup.

Fearing civil war amnesia, activists fight to preserve Beirut port silos
Families of victims of the 2020 Beirut port blast are pressuring Lebanon’s government to keep its silos as a memorial, arguing the move would be a powerful acknowledgement of suffering in a country still struggling to come to terms with years of war and strife.
Ghassan Hasrouty worked at the towering white grain silos for nearly four decades - even through Lebanon’s 15-year civil war, when he would tell his wife he felt protected by the thick walls of the storage facility.
“He used to tell my mom, ‘I’m scared for you [at home], not for me because there is nothing, no shrapnel, that can harm the silos... nothing can bring them down,” Hasrouty’s daughter Tatiana recalled.
For the latest headlines, follow our Google News channel online or via the app.
On August 4, 2020, Ghassan was working late when a massive chemical blast at the port ended his life and those of at least 215 others, and cleaved off part of the cylindrical towers.
As Lebanon marks the 47th anniversary of the start of the war on Wednesday, Ghassan’s daughter and other relatives of those killed in the blast are fighting government plans to demolish the disemboweled silos.
Lebanese officials say the ruined silos should make way for new ones, the proposed move gaining momentum amid projections of global grains shortages due to Russia’s war in Ukraine.
But activists and bereaved families say the columns, which stand like a great tombstone at Beirut’s northern entrance, should stay as a monument - at least until an investigation into the blast can serve justice in a country accustomed to moving on from violence without accountability.
“In Lebanon we got used to the fact that something happens, and then they bring us something bigger and more intense than that, and we forget,” Hasrouty said.
“They [politicians] work so that we wake up every day with new fears and new worries, and that’s why I say they [the silos] should remain, because maybe people pass by them and recall: '’people really died here’.”
‘Living witness to their crime’
The probe into the blast, one of the biggest non-nuclear explosions ever recorded, has faced pushback from a political system installed at the end of the 1975-1990 civil war, when an amnesty was issued for warlords who gained government seats.
The war left some 100,000 dead and 17,000 are still missing - but is left out of school curricula and Beirut’s most damaged areas were rebuilt with no public monuments. Historians say that has led to a collective amnesia about the war - something the families of blast victims are desperate to avoid.
“We all grew up with the civil war and remember how the rockets would fly above our heads. The Lebanese people forgot it because it was erased, because, simply, they reconstructed everything,” Rima Zahed, whose brother Amin died in the blast, told Reuters.
Zahed has since helped organize protests in support of the investigation and of the silos’ preservation. “Now we need the silos as the living witness to their crimes,” she told Reuters.
Lebanon’s government says it has other priorities.
‘Cold heart, cold mind’
Culture Minister Mohamed Mortada told Reuters the cabinet had decided to demolish the silos and rebuild new ones based on a “purely economic assessment” of Lebanon’s food security needs.
Lebanon needs more wheat storage to cope with global grains shortages resulting from the Russian war in Ukraine, from where Lebanon imports most of its wheat, officials say.
Mortada said the building could not be renovated for technical and sanitary reasons, so it had to be destroyed.
While the minister has put the silos on a list of heritage buildings, he noted the protected status could be removed if an alternative is found.
“What satisfies the families of victims or does not satisfy the families of victims, despite its importance, is not what’s asked of the culture minister. What’s asked of the culture minister is to approach it with a cold heart and cold mind. Is it tied to history or not?” he said.
Urban activist Soha Mneimneh said the move to destroy the silos amounted to “the erasure of a crime scene.”
An engineers syndicate of which she is a member has commissioned a report on the silos to study the feasibility of renovating them. Mneimneh said they should be reinforced “so they stay in peoples’ collective memory, so it is not repeated.”
For Tatiana Hasrouty, the silos evoke painful memories - but are also a symbol of strength.
“I think now after he died there, the silos, some standing and some destroyed, symbolize for our family that [despite] everything that happened to us and all the sadness we have experienced, our family is still standing, steadfast, as if nothing can shake it.”

Seiya Suzuki’s 2 homers lift Cubs to 2-1 win over Pirates

PITTSBURGH – Seiya Suzuki homered twice, Drew Smyly pitched five scoreless innings and the Chicago Cubs beat Pittsburgh 2-1 on Tuesday, spoiling the Pirates’ home opener.
Suzuki connected for leadoff shots in the fifth and seventh. One of the top players in Japan, Suzuki signed an $85 million, five-year contract with the Cubs last month.
“I’m just trying to stay aggressive and trying to make the pitcher throw more pitches,” Suzuki said through a translator. “Obviously I’m getting lucky, and I just want to continue to contribute like this.”
Smyly (1-0) permitted three hits and walked none in his Cubs debut. The left-hander agreed to a one-year contract last month.
Smyly also signed a $10 million, two-year contract with the Cubs in December 2017, but he never pitched for Chicago. Working his way back from Tommy John surgery, he ran out of time to get into a big league game in 2018 and was traded to Texas that November.
Smyly chuckled when asked about finally making his Cubs debut.
“Everything works out for a reason, everyone has a different path,” Smyly said. “I’ve been very lucky in my career, and I feel very fortunate to be back here and pitching for the Cubs. It felt good to go out there, pitch well and help the team win a game.”
The Pirates got their only run on Bryan Reynolds‘ homer against Mychal Givens in the eighth.
David Robertson worked a perfect ninth for his second save.
Jose Quintana (0-1) made his first appearance for Pittsburgh, pitching five effective innings against one of his former teams. The veteran lefty joined the Pirates as a free agent in November after posting a 6.43 ERA in an injury-plagued 2021 season with the Los Angeles Angels and San Francisco.
“All day long, I thought he threw the ball well,” Pittsburgh manager Derek Shelton said. “If he goes out in the rest of his starts and throws the ball like that, we’re going to be in pretty good shape.”
Suzuki drove a full-count pitch from Quintana deep to right-center in the fifth. He connected against Anthony Banda in the seventh for his third homer in his fourth major league game.
“There was not too much information on him,” Quintana said of Suzuki. “I tried to follow the plan, to throw the fastball close to him. I think when he hit the homer, the ball came back over the middle. He’s tough.”
Suzuki has reached base at least twice, scored a run and driven in a run in each game. The last Cubs player to start the season with a longer streak was Mark Grudzielanek with five in 2003.
“He’s really done a good job of controlling the strike zone,” Cubs acting manager Andy Green said. “He chased a little in spring training and he was probably trying to show some things. But since the season has started, he has really made the pitchers throw strikes.”
Smyly induced a career-high 11 groundball outs.
Ian Happ had two hits for Chicago. He is 7 for 10 in three games so far this season.
THOMPSON APPEALS
Cubs right-hander Keegan Thompson has appealed his three-game suspension for hitting Milwaukee’s Andrew McCutchen with a pitch Saturday. He remains eligible to play until the appeal process ends.
Ross served his one-game suspension for the incident. Green, who managed San Diego from 2016-19, ran the club in Ross’ absence.
“It’s out of my control. It’s part of the rules,” Ross said when asked if he thought the suspension was justified.
HAYES DEAL DONE
The Pirates and third baseman Ke'Bryan Hayes finalized an eight-year, $70 million contract before the game. The deal runs through the 2029 season and includes a club option for 2030.
“To be a cornerstone player means a lot to me,” Hayes, 25, said.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Cubs: RHP Alec Mills (low back strain) threw 77 pitches Sunday in extended spring training. He was scheduled for a bullpen season Tuesday in Arizona. … LHP Wade Miley (left elbow inflammation) played catch before the game.
Pirates: RHP Luis Oviedo (right ankle sprain) began an injury rehabilitation assignment at Low-A Bradenton on Sunday and pitched one scoreless inning.
UP NEXT
Cubs: RHP Kyle Hendricks (0-0, 1.29 ERA) starts on Wednesday. He allowed one run in 5 1/3 innings against Milwaukee on opening day.
Pirates: RHP Zach Thompson (3-7, 3.24 ERA in 2021) makes his debut for Pittsburgh after being acquired from Miami in an offseason trade.

Damage after 2 tornadoes touch down in Bell County, Texas
BELL COUNTY, Texas (CBSDFW.COM/CNN) - Dozens of people were hurt in Central Texas after a tornado hit Tuesday night. The severe weather happened around Salado, a city in Bell County about 50 miles south of Waco.
The National Weather Service confirms that at least two tornadoes touched down. Reports into CBS 11 News say the twisters tore through buildings, uprooted trees, and downed power lines. At least 23 people were hurt -- with a dozen of them hospitalized for their injuries.
Bell County Judge David Blackburn said 911 calls reported a twister in the area around 5:40 p.m. and that a tornado had crossed the county line from neighboring Williamson County, traveling about seven miles on the ground.
Officials with the Williamson County Office of Emergency Management say deputies reported "two separate possible tornadoes" in that county.
"I think it popped up fairly quickly," Blackburn said. "The extent of damage is significant. At least at this time not to have any report of fatalities is in and of itself amazing."
Officials in Salado say search and rescue teams did several walkthroughs Tuesday night and Wednesday morning and that they believe everyone in the area is accounted for.

Annual report on the extent of reshoring shows little change over the previous year but predicts that a redefinition of reshoring will soon create dramatic change, with companies combining reshoring and nearshoring to create a best cost—rather than a lowest cost—supply chain.
CHICAGO, April 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Good news is on the horizon for US manufacturing, according to the ninth-annual Reshoring Index released today by the global management consulting firm Kearney.
The study found that despite the short-term challenges, large portions of offshored manufacturing may soon be returning thanks to companies combining their nearshoring production to Mexico, Central America, and even Canada, with manufacturing and assembly in the United States.
The Reshoring Index is a unique barometer for tracking the extent to which America is reshoring manufacturing back from low-cost countries (LCCs) and regions in Asia that have benefitted for decades from US companies offshoring manufacturing. The Reshoring Index is determined by calculating the Manufacturing Import Ratio (MIR), dividing the import of manufactured goods from the 14 Asian LCCs by the US domestic gross manufacturing output. The Reshoring Index reflects the year-on-year change in the MIR.
In 2021, US imports of manufacturing goods from the tracked LCCs totaled 14.49 percent of US domestic gross manufacturing output, up from 12.95 percent in 2020. This resulted in a negative 2021 Reshoring Index of -154. Kearney has calculated a negative Reshoring Index for two years in a row, reversing and canceling out the 2018–2019 move into positive territory that was triggered by the US–China trade war. Since 2020, the Reshoring Index has gone down an additional 67 basis points.
"Nevertheless, the near to midterm future of reshoring looks more promising than it has in any year since we started tracking the Reshoring Index in 2013," says Patrick Van den Bossche, partner and lead author of the annual Reshoring Index report.
"Previous Kearney Reshoring Index reports have highlighted that, because of their dependence on overseas suppliers for materials, parts, and components, companies that have considered or even executed reshoring plans often wrestle with challenges associated with operating very long global supply chains," Van den Bossche said. "But what if that ecosystem of suppliers that China and other Asian countries have been building for the past three decades were to move closer to the US? That's exactly what we're starting to see happening in this year's edition of the Kearney Reshoring Index because, for a variety of reasons, more and more Chinese and Asian companies are setting up manufacturing operations in Mexico."
These overseas suppliers, which American companies have been depending on, are building or acquiring locations closer to the United States to then ship their manufactured components and parts for final, probably highly automated, assembly into the United States. This shift will allow companies to claim the products were domestically produced, thus redefining reshoring in ways that reflect the evolving realities of new global supply chains by incorporating certain nearshored activities.
Redefined, reshoring is likely to catch on faster in some industries than it does in others. "We are seeing a significantly increased focus from apparel and footwear companies on finding reshoring and nearshoring opportunities as a way to both mitigate supply chain disruptions and increase sustainability," said Brian Ehrig, partner, apparel sector lead, and consumer practice sustainability lead.
"The challenges we are seeing that need to be resolved are significant," Ehrig added. "But if the industry can work together on rebuilding its domestic and nearshore raw materials value chain, and with advances in new technology, there is a real opportunity to make this happen."

Who Will Lead LaMelo Ball and Promising Hornets Into Their Prime?
April 13, 2022The Charlotte Hornets were once on track to graduate beyond the play-in tournament this postseason, and now enter Wednesday night's do-or-die battle against Atlanta with a list of questions looming over an intriguing summer.
On Thanksgiving, Charlotte stood as high as fifth in the conference. Its high-powered offense, spearheaded by rising All-Star point guard LaMelo Ball and fourth-year breakout forward Miles Bridges, drew praise as the most exciting team in the league. Up until late January, the Hornets were firmly in the fight for the East's sixth seed. That's when Gordon Hayward sustained a foot injury and Charlotte dropped nine of 10 games in a difficult stretch.
The trade deadline acquisition of Montrezl Harrell did help fortify Charlotte's frontcourt, and Hornets staffers credit point guard Isaiah Thomas for providing integral veteran leadership for a young group. Charlotte closed the regular season winning 11 of its last 15 games.
Perhaps some perspective is needed. When Kemba Walker departed in free agency in 2019, Hornets staffers were prepared for the franchise to take a step back. Advancing beyond the play-in tournament—especially after last season's flameout in the elimination game against Indiana—would be progress for Charlotte's rebuild.
But this is the fourth season for Charlotte's current regime, dating back to April 2018 when Hornets owner Michael Jordan named Mitch Kupchak, now 67, the franchise's general manager. Kupchak, like others who have passed through Charlotte's doors during Jordan's stewardship, played college ball at North Carolina.
Upon his hire, Kupchak selected James Borrego to be the Hornets' head coach on a four-year deal that included a team option in the final season—this 2021-22 campaign. That contract was the same length as Kupchak's original deal, sources said, yet only Borrego was able to complete a multi-year extension prior to this season.
The uncertainty surrounding Kupchak has sparked the latest round of whispers in and around Charlotte that this may be Kupchak's final year helming the Hornets' front office. But to be fair, word of Kupchak's potential departure—or a transition to more of an advisory role—has echoed among league personnel for each of the past few seasons. Still, there would seem to be more credence to the rumors this summer without an extension in place.
There have been plenty of rumored potential replacements over the years, but the two most commonly discussed names are Buzz Peterson, Jordan's college roommate at UNC and the Hornets' assistant general manager since 2014, and Chicago Bulls general manager Marc Eversley, who began his career at Nike, the parent company of the Jordan Brand. Eversley interviewed for the general manager position in 2018, but the role went to Kupchak instead.
The unclear future of Charlotte's basketball operations extends down to the Hornets' coaching staff. Any change in a front office would naturally cast doubt upon the incumbent head coach, even with Borrego having just signed an extension while leading the Hornets to 10 more victories than a season ago, and despite a second-straight campaign in which midseason injuries derailed Charlotte's early momentum.
By all accounts, Borrego maintains a strong connection with Charlotte's key players, most Ball and Bridges. He's widely respected by his peers in the NBA coaching community, and considered to be well-organized, detail-oriented and inclusive with staff. In a business often driven by ego, Borrego doesn't seem to care about being the loudest voice in the room.
He's also driving admirable results: despite losing Devante Graham in free agency to New Orleans, and Hayward being limited to just 49 games, the Hornets' offense improved to eighth in the league this season after shifting Ball into more of a primary ball-handling role.
There is some speculation among league coaching figures that a failure to advance to the playoffs in this third post-Kemba season could result in Borrego's ouster, yet there's an heavier dose of optimism both outside and inside the organization the Hornets' coach is likely to remain in Charlotte after his recent extension in August—which one source said was for two years with a third-year option.
"It would make no sense to fire him," one assistant general manager told B/R. "I know the NBA is a results-oriented business, but if you believe in him to be your coach, if you believe in him growing alongside LaMelo and Bridges, you've taken a step forward each of the last two seasons, you just extended him. Why would not making the playoffs with a young roster suddenly change that?"
The Hornets' late-season success came with a far different lineup than Borrego used at the start of the year. Entering the deadline, rival executives spotlighted PJ Washington as a strong trade candidate before he becomes extension eligible this summer. Now, Washington has served as a versatile starting power forward alongside Bridges' at the three, while Kelly Oubre has provided a valued punch off the Hornets' bench.
The final stretch also provided a glimpse of what Charlotte might look like without Hayward on the roster. The emergence of Bridges, not to mention Ball's high usage rate, meant fewer playmaking opportunities for Hayward within the Hornets' offense. Word has circulated amongst rival front offices that the 32-year-old swingman would be interested in a change of scenery this offseason, although a source close to Hayward told B/R he's primarily focused on recovering from his injured foot.
Bridges is clearly the present and future wing Charlotte wants to develop alongside Ball. After Bridges' camp declined a four-year, $60 million contract offer last fall, sources confirmed, he is expected to command a maximum salary that could total five years, $173 million this summer. League personnel believe the Hornets will match any offer sheet for Bridges. That could either dissuade teams from making an earnest attempt at signing him, unnecessarily tying their hands for 48 hours. Or it may encourage a rival suitor to force Charlotte to pay his full max, as the Brooklyn Nets once did with Washington and Otto Porter.
Either way, the Hornets' roster is about to get pricey. Moving Hayward now would start to clear Charlotte's books for more critical contract decisions. In addition to Washington's contract status, Ball will become extension-eligible in 2023, and third-year forward Cody Martin's free agency looms this July.
The idea of moving Hayward's $30 million salary and additional contracts—such as Kelly Oubre or Mason Plumlee and a third, smaller deal—to Los Angeles for Russell Westbrook's expiring contract has taken hold among league executives, as first reported by Marc Stein. Westbrook would be owed $47 million in 2022-23 if he picks up his player option, which would create significant financial flexibility for the Hornets in the summer of 2023.
But the idea of Los Angeles adding another expensive player with extensive injury history may be too much for the Lakers to stomach. And while the Hornets explored acquiring Westbrook, a Jordan Brand athlete, from the Rockets back in 2020, that was before Ball's star turn. Hayward still offers a strong fit next to Charlotte's growing core when healthy, and his contract only lasts one season longer than Westbrook's.
The Hornets could also use Hayward and his contract to finally land a solution at center. Charlotte nearly landed Marc Gasol from Memphis prior to the 2019 trade deadline, and has flirted incessantly with Indiana to acquire Myles Turner ever since. Kupchak's front office instead opted for stop-gaps rather than investing in a long-term answer at the position. While free agent centers such as Richaun Holmes and Nerlens Noel were under the impression Charlotte would provide a lucrative center landing spot last summer, the Hornets pivoted to swing a draft-night deal with the Pistons to nab Plumlee.
Indiana has long harbored interest in Hayward, and nearly sent Turner to Boston in a sign-and-trade for the Butler product back in 2020. It's unclear whether the Pacers will truly entertain moving Turner this summer after sending Domantas Sabonis to Sacramento, but prior to Turner's ankle injury in January, Indiana was asking for two first-round picks, or one first-rounder and a promising rookie-scale contract player.
Would Hayward and draft capital still be enough? He could present a veteran swingman to pair with Tyrese Halliburton, but the Pacers are also frequently mentioned as another possible Westbrook trade partner—where Indiana would send the Lakers' and Rob Pelinka's well-known target, Buddy Hield, along with Malcolm Brodgon.
League personnel do expect Charlotte to explore adding a true rim protector like Turner to help fortify this Hornets roster's glaring weakness. Charlotte finished the 2021-22 regular season 22nd in defensive efficiency.
"They don't defend," said one team scout. "You gotta find a defensive identity."
For all his flash, Ball has impressed Hornets personnel with his professionalism and low-maintenance approach to superstardom. Bridges has emerged as a bonafide co-star. Borrego has their trust. The future of Charlotte, and the next step in this rebuild's progression, seems centered on the Hornets' front office, and who will be spearheading the team's roster construction moving forward.

The currency we left for you was very strong at 9%, Adongo
We will turn this difficult situation around for the better, NDC
MP for Bolga Central Isaac has stated that Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is the first economic team manager who has given Ghana a debt of over GH¢400million.
According to him, the current government has been bad managers of the economy.
Speaking during an economic lecture on the current state of the economy, Adongo mentioned that the vice president is the only economic manager who has plunged Ghana into debt distress.
“The reality we left for you was very strong at 9% and the following year, when you took over in 2017 it went further down to 6.4%. But when you could now sit properly, the thing(cedi) started shooting up to the extent that by 2019 you doing double-digit 13% of depreciation. Was there COVID?”
He added, "So, with what I have explained, is it not clear that currency depreciation is more than the fundamentals of the economy? It is not interest rate, it is not inflation, it is not GDP. There are exogenous variables that you may not have control over and if you don’t have enough buffers then you have a challenge."
During a public lecture on the state of the economy last week, the Vice President stated that, even though the country was currently facing a lot of fiscal challenges, the fundamentals are still strong.
This according to the MP, is not a possibility.
He said, “you are owing 400million and you are saying your fundamentals are strong. When you owe somebody, your fundamental is your ability to pay, we don’t use inflation to pay debt, we don’t use NABCO to pay debt, we don’t use restoration of nursing training allowances to pay debt? Dr. Bawumia, investors are not interested in semantics.”
He further boasts of the achievement of former President Mahama saying his performance cannot be compared anywhere to this government. There are the most incompetent group of government that have ever been visited on our country.

Simple iPhone hack can hide any apps from home screen for privacy
iPhone users have the ability to hide almost any app from the homescreen of their phone for added privacy.
The genius system means people can keep apps, such as dating or banking apps, out of view so other people won’t stumble upon it when using their phone.
How does it work?
TikTok creator @markdx explained the simple hack to allow iPhone users to keep any sensitive apps hidden from view.
First of all, users need to hide home screen pages and thanks to the App Library, having a home screen packed full of apps is no longer necessary.
A new Apple feature added in iOS 14 - which is still available in iOS 15 - allows users to hide apps, or even entire pages of apps, from the home screen without having to delete them.
To check you’re running the right iOS version, go to ‘Settings’ > ‘General’ > ‘Software Update’.
To hide your home screen page, simply put all the apps you want to hide onto a home screen page and hold your finger down on the home screen until the app icons start to wiggle.
Then tap on the bubble with dots inside at the bottom of the screen. This will bring up a homescreen view allowing you to hide individual pages by unticking them.
When you are finished, simple tap ‘done’ in the right-hand corner.
These pages are not gone forever and will stay preserved until you want to make them visible again.
How to hide apps from Siri
Swiping down on the home screen on an iPhone will allow an app to appear, or you can search for an app using voice or text.
However, it is possible to turn these features off for individual apps.
To do so, go into ‘Settings’ and select ‘Siri & Search’, then scroll down to select the app you wish to hide.
Click on the setting and then turn off the following features:
- show app in search- show content in search- show on home screen- suggest app- suggestion notifications
After turning these features off Siri will not be able to suggest that app, even if you have searched for it specifically.
Although it is still possible to search for the app via the App Library as this is not a moveable feature.

According to a report by data analyst site Sensor Tower, the popular mobile battle royale game PUBG Mobile ranked as the second highest-earning mobile game worldwide with $199.8 million in gross revenue.
This is the first time this year that PUBG Mobile fell below $200 million in revenue, as the titls generated $237 million in January and $205 million in February. A little over 56 percent of PUBG Mobile's revenue was generated in China, where it is known as Game For Peace, followed by 9.5 percent in the United States.
While PUBG Mobile revenue slips below $200 million, Honor of Kings maintains its top position
Honor of Kings by Tencent became the first mobile game to cross $250 Million in revenue in the year 2022. The MOBA title raked in $272.4 Million in player spending, an increase of 5.8% year on year.
The game raked in $232 million in January and $225 million in February and will cross the $1 billion mark in the next few weeks. Most of the revenue comes from China, and the rest from Taiwan and Thailand.
Genshin Impact, Candy Crush Saga, and Roblox have maintained their rankings among the top five grossing titles. Garena Free Fire has broken into the top five of Google Play revenue but has fallen one position to tenth place in the total rankings.
DBZ Dokkan Battle by Bandai Nomaco, which was the tenth highest earning mobile game in February, did not make it to the list this month.
Lineage W from Ncsoft is currently the highest earning mobile game on the Google Play Store. Candy Crush Saga dropped two places to third place on the Play Store while Garena Free Fire moved up to fourth place.
Top 10 highest-grossing mobile games of March 2022
- Honor of Kings by Tencent
- PUBG Mobile by Tencent
- Genshin Impact by miHoyo
- Candy Crush Saga by King
- Roblox by Roblox
- Lineage W by NC Soft
- Coin Master by Moon Active
- Uma Musume Pretty Derby by CyberAgent
- Three Kingdoms Tactics by Alibaba
- Garena Free Fire
Over the course of March, players spent approximately $7 billion across Google Play and the App Store, a decline of roughly 6.3%. U.S. spending accounted for 27.3% of global sales with $1.9 billion, which was the largest market by revenue. Despite not having Google Play available, China ranked second in revenue at 19.2%, followed by Japan at approximately 19%.

Aluminium Can Manufacturing Plant Project Report 2022-2027 | Syndicated Analytics
The inflating consumption of carbonated beverages and sports drinks is among the primary factors driving the aluminum can market.
ALBANY, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES, April 13, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Aluminum cans are the metal containers that are used for packing numerous products, such as chemicals, pharmaceutical items, oils, etc., for storing them in a way that preserves their flavor and quality. They offer a more extended shelf-life and are also easier to transport and store when compared to plastic or glass containers. Aluminum cans endure pressures of up to 90 pounds per square inch and can support the carbonation pressures required to package soda. Additionally, they offer excellent corrosion resistance and exceptional protection against moisture, oxygen, fats, microorganisms, ultraviolet (UV) rays, etc.

AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) — A $21 million initiative aimed at strengthening Maine's health care workforce by connecting employers and individuals with training and education programs has launched, Gov. Janet Mills said Wednesday.
Maine has struggled with a shortage of health care workers and the pandemic only made it worse, Mills said.
Through a new Healthcare Training for ME website, people can easily find training programs to make it easier “to pursue careers in health care and to move up the career ladder into higher-paying jobs,” she said.
Partnering on the project are the Maine Department of Education along with state universities and community colleges, the Maine Department of Labor and the Maine Department of Health and Human Services.
The program is supported by $21 million from the Maine Jobs & Recovery Plan. That includes $8.5 million allocated to DOL and $12.5 million allocated to the Maine Community College System for workforce training.

Mattel releases first-ever carbon neutral toys, including a Matchbox Tesla
(Gray News) – Mattel is taking its first step towards its goal to achieve 100% recycled, recyclable or bio-based plastic materials in all its products and packaging by 2030.
In a release, the company says it has released its first set of carbon neutral toys.
These toys include the MEGA BLOKS Green Town, which the company says is the first-ever toy line available at mass retail to be certified CarbonNeutral.
Four new MEGA BLOKS Green Town building sets are being released this month.
Mattel said it’s releasing some carbon neutral toys as part of its Matchbox line as well as part of its Driving Toward a Better Future product roadmap. The first in this line of toys is the Tesla Roadster, the company’s first carbon neutral die-cast vehicle made from 99% recycled materials.
To help make this move, the brand bought carbon offsets from Canada’s Darkwood Forests Conservation Project.
Carbon offsets allow companies to take steps, like protecting a forest, so that carbon emissions are offset.
Some climate experts are criticizing this action saying fossil fuels are still being used in the creation of toys.

Greece is lifting all Covid-related entry restrictions as it prepares to greet record numbers of tourists this summer. Rules will be relaxed from next month in time for the peak holiday period in a boost for British tourists.
The country's minister for health Thanos Plevris confirmed the move ahead of what is expected to be the busiest summer in years with bookings already surging ahead. Restrictions will be lifted for visitors from EU and non-EU countries including the UK, plus vaccinated and unvaccinated travellers.
Travellers will no longer be required to present either proof of a full course of vaccination, or a negative Covid test to enter the country and its islands from May 2. Face coverings will no longer be compulsory from June 1 and customers will not need to provide a Covid pass as proof of vaccination when entering bars and restaurants.
The requirement for travellers to complete a passenger locator form before entering Greece was lifted last month. All domestic restrictions have also been suspended, including rules regulating capacity numbers at venues such as restaurants, shops and sports venues are also being relaxed until August 31, when all the measures will be reviewed.
Currently, Greece requires all arrivals to present a valid vaccination, recovery, or test certificate to enter the country. vaccinations must have been administered within the last nine months or have received a booster jab.
It accepts both rapid antigen and PCR test results. The rapid antigen test must be taken within 24 hours before arrival in Greece, and the PCR test must be taken within 72 hours before arrival in Greece.

The location box restoration work was completed at 7am after which the signalling also started working,” Central Railway chief PRO, Shivaji Sutar, said.
Meanwhile, Railway Police Force team from Panvel has registered an FIR against the unidentified miscreants under Section 174C (tampering with, disconnecting or interfering in any other manner with its hose pipe or tampering with signal gear) and 147 (Trespass and refusal to desist from trespass) of the Railway Act. After making a preliminary note of the incident on Wednesday morning, a case was registered after the Railway officials submitted their report.
“There is no CCTV footage as the camera was situated very far away. We are investigating and trying to get leads in the case,” senior police inspector, Jasbeer Rana from Panvel RPF, said.

Why states don’t go bust despite fiscal indiscipline
When I was finance secretary of Punjab, a system was introduced under which the state's cabinet was apprised of the poor state of state finances, every quarter. The note for the cabinet invariably concluded with a warning that the government is on the verge of bankruptcy. Let us examine this in the specific context of Punjab. The titled question, why states don't go bust, remains unanswered. Most of the states, including Punjab, followed suit.

Delight as refitted lifeboat returns to town's RNLI station
- Credit: Chris Taylor
Saving lives at sea has been made considerably easier thanks to the arrival of new and refitted vehicles at Sheringham RNLI station.
The inshore lifeboat The Oddfellows has returned to the town following a complete refit, including two new, state-of-the-art Yamaha engines which offer increased power.
In March, the station got a new hydraulic-driven tractor to launch and recover the lifeboat in challenging North Sea conditions.
The lifeboat's return marks 60 years the Manchester Unity of Oddfellows group has supported the Sheringham RNLI.
Phil Hawes, chairman, said: "We are indebted to the Manchester Unity of Oddfellows.
"Its support is invaluable and we would wish it known that members of the Fellowship visiting Sheringham will be made most welcome at the lifeboat house."
The lifeboat The Oddfellows has been operational since 2007, and has been launched on service more than 50 times.

Since 1961, the Fellowship has provided three working lifeboats to the station and also purchased three retired boats so that they can be displayed at the town's Mo Museum.
The displays at The Mo bear testament to the dedication of the Sheringham crews since the first private lifeboat The Augusta was launched in 1838, giving birth to a service that still plays an integral, and evolving role for that part of the coast.
And this year also marks six decades of service Trevor Holsey has given to the lifeboat station.
Mr Holsey has filled roles including second coxswain and deputy launch authority. He now manages and supports the operational activity of the station and mentors its crew.
He said he still enjoyed being involved with the station and continued to recognise its essential purpose.
Mr Holsey said: "Although the people, the boats and even the times have changed, the sea hasn’t, our dedicated crews still do the same job as I have seen over the last 60 years - saving life at sea."
Due to the end of Covid restrictions Sheringham's seafront RNLI boathouse and on-site shop will be open more regularly than in the previous two years.
The shop is aiming to re-open on May 1.

Former Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Danny Murphy believes that Burnley still have a chance to get out of their relegation struggles and that Everton will need more points on the board to guarantee their safety.
The Clarets are currently four points from safety after the 2-0 loss on the road to Norwich City over the weekend.
Pierre Lees-Melou's first Norwich goal put the hosts in front early on, before Teemu Pukki added a second late on to secure the three points for the Canaries.

The loss left Sean Dyche's side sitting four points from safety with eight matches of their season remaining.
The Clarets are on the same number of games as 17th placed Everton but have two in hand on Leeds, who are nine points clear of the drop zone as things stand.
Though the Toffees are four games ahead of the Clarets, Murphy believes Burnley still have a chance to stay up and have more inviting fixtures on paper than Frank Lampard's men do in the coming weeks.
And just one win for Burnley coupled with a loss for Everton in a round of fixtures soon could lead to the landscape at the bottom of the table changing very quickly.
Speaking on talkSPORT, he said: “I think they have still got a fighting chance. They have got Watford to play, Wolves, Southampton, Villa, Newcastle. They have got games they can win.
“The form suggests they won’t win lots of games because they haven’t done all season and they don’t score enough goals.
“But Everton’s run-in is really tough so you would be stupid to write them off just yet.
“I certainly don’t think Frank Lampard and Everton will be, they have got some points to get on the board before they are safe.
“I think (Burnley) have got enough about them to win a couple of those home games.
“You look at Everton’s fixtures coming up - they have got Liverpool, Leicester and Chelsea. You could argue that they might not get a point out of those three. If Burnley win one, the pressure is back on."

A Ukrainian teenager who fled the war to come to Scotland is still waiting to be handed an emergency payment pledged under the UK Government scheme.
Varvara Shevtsova, 18, said she is still waiting for documents to be processed by the Government to allow her to be guaranteed the right to stay in the UK for three years.
The £200 'welcome payment' promised for each refugee, aimed at plugging a financial gap for as they settle in, has also not materialised.
Ms Shevtsova, who arrived in Scotland on March 28, has had to rely on her hosts, Harry and Catriona Smart, who have taken her in to their home in Montrose, Angus.
Angus Council said the details of how refugees would supported were still 'being finalised' with the UK Government.
Writing in the Scotsman about the trials faced by Ukrainian refugees, Mr Smart said there were delays with every aspect of the process.
An initial visa allows refugees to stay in the UK for six months, with the option to extend that to three years.
But biometric data needs to be taken before that application can be processed.
Information provided by the UK Government states Ukrainians will be entitled to a £200 interim payment to help with subsistence costs which will be provided by the local council.
The council is also supposed to carry out a follow-up check on the accommodation provided by hosts, which Mr Smart said has also not yet taken place.
Mr Smart said: "Varvara is here and so now are others.
"But for sponsors and guests, the bureaucracy continues.
"Two weeks on, Varvara still doesn't have the welcome payment she was promised, still can't work or claim benefits.
"The biometric data essential to her longer-term stay in the UK hasn't been taken and after more than a week of trying we still don't know where or when it will be.
"The assumption is that employment will only be an issue further down the line.
"Not so: early arrivals disproportionately have good English and are keen to work."
A Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities spokesperson said: "Everyone coming to the UK under the Homes for Ukraine scheme will have access to healthcare, education, benefits and job support on the same footing as UK nationals.
"The UK government is providing £10,500 per person to help councils carry out checks and provide services for those arriving."
An Angus Council spokesperson said: "Angus Council, like all local authorities across Scotland, is working closely with the UK and Scottish Governments to put arrangements in place to support refugees coming from Ukraine.
"At this stage the exact detail of these arrangements is being finalised.
"If you are a host sponsor waiting to receive the £350 monthly payment, this will be arranged once the relevant disclosure and property checks have been completed.
"We will arrange these checks with you once we have confirmation of your details from the Scottish or UK Government authority supporting this process."
A spokesperson for Cosla, which represents Scottish local authorities, said: "Cosla and Scottish local authorities are working with the UK Government and Scottish Government to meet the requirements under the Homes for Ukrainian Schemes to enable the housing and host checks to be undertaken, and for arrivals to receive the support they require."

- Scottie Scheffler dons the Green Jacket on Sunday at the Masters. (Keyur Khamar/PGA TOUR)
SCHEFFLER WINS MASTERS FOR FOURTH TOUR TITLE IN SIX STARTS
Scottie Scheffler is currently the world’s best golfer, statistically and aesthetically, and a Green Jacket is now part of his all-world 2022 memorabilia collection. The New Jersey native took a five-stroke lead into the weekend at the 86th Masters Tournament, held steady in Saturday’s cold, windy conditions, and kept the pedal down in Sunday’s final round at Augusta National Golf Club. Scheffler, 25, finished with a 10-under total and three-stroke victory over Rory McIlroy, who matched the Masters final-round record with an 8-under 64, punctuated by a bunker hole-out birdie at the 72nd hole. Scheffler wasn’t fazed by McIlroy’s historic charge from five groups ahead, nor has he been fazed by much in the last two months. A selection of Scheffler superlatives: He becomes the first player since Jason Day in 2015 to earn four TOUR wins in six starts. He wins in his first start as world No. 1. With his first four TOUR wins occurring in a 57-day span, he even nudges Bobby Locke (1947, 59 days) for shortest span between first and fourth wins. Scheffler increases his lead in the season-long FedExCup standings, 600 points accrued, as well. After assuming the No. 1 spot on the Official World Golf Ranking with his win at last month’s WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play, Scheffler said he “never really got that far in my dreams.” His dream season continues.
TIGER WOODS ‘THANKFUL’ TO COMPETE AT MASTERS
By golf terms, it wasn’t the result he wanted. In the big picture, it was a success. The record will show that Tiger Woods finished at 13-over 301 at the Masters, his highest 72-hole total at this event by eight shots. It also is the second-highest 72-hole total of his career. Score was secondary this week, though. Woods made the cut and was able to get through four rounds on the extremely hilly Augusta National Golf Club, just 14 months after a single-car accident nearly cost him his right leg. “I think it needs a couple more days to heal after this,” Woods said. “But we'll get back after it, and we'll get into it.” Next up? It will be up for plenty of debate, but Woods did say he plans to play The Open at St. Andrews in July. The only question will be what event, or events, he will play leading up to that major.
Cameron Smith leads a stout field for the RBC Heritage, which includes five of the top 10 players in the world. Smith won THE PLAYERS Championship in March and was in Sunday’s final group at the Masters before finishing T3. Justin Thomas, Patrick Cantlay, Dustin Johnson and Collin Morikawa are all set to make the short trip from Augusta along with Jordan Spieth, who heads to Harbour Town off a missed cut at the Masters. Stewart Cink returns to defend his 2021 triumph. Cink, 48, is looking to become the first person to defend his title in Hilton Head since Boo Weekley in 2007-08. South Carolina residents in the field include Aiken’s Kevin Kisner, North Augusta’s Matthew NeSmith, Columbia’s Wesley Bryan and Greenville’s Lucas Glover. Including Cink, each of the last nine winners at the RBC Heritage is set to tee it up. The 2023 Ryder Cup captains, Zach Johnson and Henrik Stenson, will be in the field. Morgan Hoffmann, who suffers from muscular dystrophy, returns to the TOUR for the first time since 2019 with three starts left on his Major Medical Extension. The Pete Dye/Jack Nicklaus design will play as a 7,121-yard par 71 and has hosted the RBC Heritage since the 1960s. The winner receives 500 FedExCup points plus a new jacket to add to the wardrobe.

Relax. You might already have enough money to retire on.
My favorite dividend stocks let people retire comfortably on $500,000 or so.
Got more cash? Great! You're in elite company.
Fidelity Investments--apparently happy to share its customer's financial info anonymously--says it has more than 750,000 seven-figure 401(k) and IRA accounts.
That sounds like a lot, but it means less than 1% of Americans have $1 million or more saved for retirement. And that's OK--select dividend stocks can help us retire comfortably on $500,000 or so.
Sure, a chunk of money is great. Especially when we can leave it untouched and let it grow.
That was no doubt the "secret" of Fidelity's retirement millionaires. They socked away money for decades and rode the market higher. (They didn't chase the crypto du jour!)
Soon it will be time to convert the pile of cash into cash flow that can pay the bills. Many retirees buy stocks and "hope" they'll go up in price. Problem is, hope is not an ideal retirement strategy.
It was dollar-cost averaging that built these retirement fortunes. These investors bought a set amount of stocks and funds every two weeks, every month, every year. They did this systematically, which secured them more shares when prices were low and fewer when they were dear!
Traditional retirement "advice" would say that you can live comfortably doing the exact opposite. Sell 4% per year and hope that you don't outlive your money.
Wait, what?
This is reverse dollar-cost averaging. It is the inverse of the wealth-building technique that minted these millionaires!
By selling a set dollar amount of shares every month, quarter, or year to pay the bills, these investors are being advised to sell more shares when prices are low and fewer shares when prices are high.
What a disaster.
A better bet? A strategy to retire on dividends alone that leaves that beautiful pile of cash alone.
This is why money manager Tom Jacobs and I wrote the book on this. In How to Retire on Dividends: Earn a Safe 8%, Leave Your Principal Intact, we outline our "no withdrawal" approach to retirement:
- Save a bunch of money. ("Check.")
- Buy safe dividend stocks with big yields
- Enjoy the income while keeping the original principal intact.
Step number two is a tricky one for many investors. A million bucks is great, but the S&P yields just 1.3% today. A seven-figure nest egg in popular "low cost" ETF SPDR S&P 500 Trust (SPY) will land you in the low-income bracket with just $13,000 a year.
That will keep your taxes low. And your quality of life!
Blue-chip dividend payers like Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) are better, but not by much. JNJ yields 2.4%, so it will dish the millionaire $24,000 in annual income.
Or, pay the $500,000 portfolio just $12,000 in yearly dividends. Not enough.
To make that million last, and our working life worthwhile, we really need yields in the 7% to 8% range. We typically don't see these stocks touted on Bloomberg or CNBC, but they are around.
Of course, there are plenty of landmines in the high yield space. Some of these stocks are cheap for a reason. Which is why we need to be contrarian when looking for income.
We must identify why a yield is incorrectly allowed to be so high. (In other words, we need to figure out why the stock is priced so cheaply!)
As I write, the top thirteen yields in my Contrarian Income Report portfolio average 7.6%. This baker's dozen is spinning off $76,000 for every million dollars invested.
And you don't have to be a millionaire to take advantage of this strategy. A $500K nest egg will create $38,000 in annual income. Or $200K will generate $15,200 in yearly dividend income (better than a million bucks in JNJ!) You get the idea.
The important thing is that these yields are safe, which creates stability for the stock (and fund) prices attached to them. We want our income, with our principal intact. It's really the only way to retire comfortably, without having to stare at stock tickers all day, every day.
Best of all, many of my favorite dividends are paid monthly. So, we're talking about $3,000+ in dividends every month on that $500K. Or $6,000+ per month in income on the seven-figure accounts that Fidelity brags about.

California woman admits she faked her own kidnapping in 2016
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KCRA) - The northern California woman accused of faking her own kidnapping in 2016 has signed a plea deal and will confess she made everything up.
Sherri Papini, now 39, said in a statement in part, “I am deeply ashamed of myself for my behavior and so sorry for the pain I’ve caused.”
Her attorney, William Portanova, confirmed that she signed a plea agreement Tuesday.
Papini’s husband reported her missing in November 2016 after she had gone out for a jog near her home. Three weeks later, on Thanksgiving, she was found alone on an interstate 140 miles from home.
She said she was kidnapped by two women who held her captive, chained in a closet. Her elaborate story included details about her supposed assailants wearing masks, holding her at gunpoint and branding her with a heated tool.
Federal prosecutors said Papini injured herself to back up her false statements.
The Justice Department said Papini had actually stayed with an ex-boyfriend in southern California for the three weeks she was reportedly missing.
Federal prosecutors said Papini received more than $30,000 in fraudulent victim assistance money based on the hoax. She is also facing charges of mail fraud and making false statements to a federal law enforcement officer.

A Jamaican man wanted by the Nashville police in connection to a murder was arrested on April 10 in Florida.
The Metropolitan Nashville Police Department say homicide suspect, 20-year-old Brandon Swaby was arrested at the Fort Lauderdale airport. He was attempting to fly home to Jamaica.
A Nashville arrest warrant charging Swaby with criminal homicide in last Tuesday’s murder of 22-year-old Christopher Brandon McCabe on Donelson Pike near the Nashville International Airport was issued.
The investigation, being led by Detective Myriah Iles, shows that McCabe arranged through Facebook Marketplace on April 4 to trade his BMW sedan for Swaby’s Dodge Charger.
The following morning, the BMW broke down on Donelson Pike. McCabe drove to Donelson Pike in a relative’s SUV. A dispute reportedly ensued with Swaby, and McCabe was fatally shot inside the SUV.
Swaby traveled to Atlanta at some point after the homicide. He flew from Atlanta to Fort Lauderdale on Sunday morning where he was taken into custody by U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agents with assistance from federal partners.
Swaby will be held in the Broward County, Florida jail pending his return to Nashville.

5WPR's Consumer Culture Report Dives into the Convergence of Gaming and Shopping
NEW YORK, April 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- 5WPR, one of the largest independently-owned PR firms in the U.S., has released their Consumer Culture Report revealing over half of men surveyed enjoy seeing their favorite brands on gaming platforms, and close to 30% have made digital purchases to own products from these brands virtually.
Beyond the screen, 43% of men who use any gaming platform have been influenced to make offline purchases by these brand integrations. According to a 2021 survey by Statista, men accounted for 55% of all video gamers in the United States.
"Smart brands will go wherever consumers are spending time, but the key to securing transactions is finding authentic integrations within these games," said 5WPR CEO, Dara A. Busch. "Right now, many of these integrations might entice men more than women gamers because they're being targeted. A brand that traditionally has a larger female consumer base might not be thinking about offering branded products in a game like Fortnite just yet, but that discrepancy is becoming smaller each day, and soon we can expect to see more traditionally feminine brands entering the gaming market."
At the time of the survey, only 14% of female gaming respondents had made purchases from their favorite brands virtually. However, 29% of female gamers had been influenced to make purchases by these brand integrations offline, suggesting females still value physical products more than virtual ones, possibly because they still spend most of their time and money in reality.
"As the boundaries between reality and digital are increasingly blurred, we can expect to see consumers spend more time and money in these virtual worlds, regardless of age and gender. With the introduction of more advanced virtual reality and the Metaverse, soon it won't be enough to own the physical product, you'll be buying it for your virtual avatar too," adds Busch. "My advice to brands who have not yet considered gaming integrations is to begin building your virtual presence – it will only continue to grow as a strong sales and marketing channel."
As a leading consumer PR firm, and an award-winning digital agency, 5WPR is committed to being a trailblazer in the industry, providing clients with the most up-to-date consumer insights. The information gathered from the survey guides strategy, planning and execution of client campaigns.
The research was conducted by Censuswide, with 2,002 respondents aged 16+ across the USA between 11.18.21 and 11.22.21. The survey was conducted from a nationally representative of American adults. Censuswide abide by and employ members of the Market Research Society which is based on the ESOMAR principles.

JUSTIN, Texas, April 13, 2022
JUSTIN, Texas, April 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has selected Canoo Inc. (Nasdaq: GOEV) a high-tech advanced mobility company to provide Crew Transportation Vehicles (CTVs) for crewed Artemis lunar exploration launches. Canoo will deliver multiple customized all-electric LV models to NASA by June 2023.
"We are honored to transport the Artemis crew to the launch site for the first human lunar landing in more than 50 years. The selection of our innovative technologies by NASA to take a diverse team of American astronauts to the moon showcases a great commitment to sustainable transportation," said Canoo Investor, Chairman and CEO Tony Aquila. "As a high-tech mobility company, we are inspired by NASA's pioneering and trailblazing spirit. Our customized vehicles are modular and upgradable throughout their lifecycle with a high level of recyclability at end of life. Canoo's Made in America electric vehicles embody our nation's ingenuity and bold determination to reclaim global technology leadership for America and its allied nations. We are proud to be a partner to NASA in one of the world's greatest endeavors."
The Crew Transportation Vehicle must carry fully suited astronauts, flight support staff and equipment to the launch site. Astronaut and crew comfort, safety and function are critical to successful completion of a mission. Addressing these challenges early on in the design phase speeds development and often results in a better product.
The new Crew Transportation Vehicles will be based on Canoo's LV model – a future-forward all-electric vehicle, designed from a clean sheet and based on Canoo's proprietary multi-purpose platform to maximize cabin space, utility and productivity on a compact footprint.
Canoo vehicles are engineered from the inside out, vertically integrating drive by wire function in its modular multi-purpose platform which liberates valuable interior space for passengers and cargo. The team focused on optimizing function and form, so each component and space of the vehicle has a purpose for the driver, passenger and the mission.
Canoo is revolutionizing the way vehicles are built with its multi-purpose platform and interchangeable top hats. The company has filed more than 160 patents spanning across every major component of their vehicles. Taking cues from aerospace, Canoo engineers for the future, the vehicles are fully redundant, harmonized for secure proprietary software and over the air updates. Its focus on IP creation is following the trajectory set forth by NASA's pioneering spirit.
As with spacecraft engineering and design, component serviceability and upgradability are critical to reduce project lifetime cost. Canoo has put an emphasis on designing its vehicles at lower part counts and high level or repairability achieved through a modular approach to design making the vehicles more efficient, durable and sustainable across their lifecycle.
Canoo will manufacture vehicles for the Artemis mission in the heartland. The company recently named Bentonville, Arkansas as its headquarters and advanced manufacturing site and Pryor, Oklahoma as the site of its mega micro factory. Canoo will bring more than 2,700 high tech advanced mobility jobs directly and attract many more indirectly to the region. Canoo plans to launch commercial production from its Bentonville facility in late 2022.
"The heartland has produced 7 of America's astronauts, including the first Native American astronaut. We are pleased to build on that incredible legacy and to engage the can-do spirit of this dynamic region in the future of space exploration" Aquila said. "NASA's choice will support high-paying technology and light blue collar EV advanced manufacturing jobs with the Cherokee Nation and the states of Oklahoma and Arkansas."
It has been more than 50 years since the Apollo mission brought the first astronauts to the moon. Artemis , twin sister to Apollo and goddess of the moon in Greek mythology, is a fitting mission to land the first woman and person of color on the moon and provide learning opportunities for future missions. This seminal mission will establish the first long-term human and robotic presence on and around the lunar surface and lay the groundwork for future crewed visits to Mars.
NASA selected Canoo's zero emission LVs as the Crew Transport Vehicles for the Artemis Program through a competitive process.
Canoo's mission is to bring EVs to Everyone. The company has developed breakthrough Multi-Purpose Platforms and digital ecosystems that are reinventing the automotive landscape with bold innovations in design, pioneering technologies, and a unique business model that spans the full lifecycle of the vehicle.
Distinguished by its experienced team from leading technology and automotive companies – Canoo has designed a modular electric platform purpose-built to deliver maximum vehicle interior space that is customizable across all owners in the vehicle lifecycle to support a wide range of vehicle applications for consumers and businesses.
Canoo has teams in Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Michigan and California. For more information, please visit www.canoo.com.

Ex-Facebook employee warns that metaverse could allow firm to ‘spy on you at home’
ONE OF Meta's most prominent critics has taken aim at the metaverse, a virtual world being built by the company where users work, socialise and play.
Frances Haugen, a former Facebook staffer who has repeatedly spoken out against her former employer, says that she is worried about how Meta will handle people's sensitive information.
Meta, the company formerly known as Facebook, announced plans to build a metaverse in a glitzy, hour-long video last year.
It's a 3D space accessible using a virtual reality headset. A number of other metaverses are being developed by rival companies.
"[Meta] has made very grandiose promises about how there’s safety-by-design in the Metaverse," Haugen told Politico on Tuesday.
"But if they don’t commit to transparency and access and other accountability measures, I can imagine just seeing a repeat of all the harms you currently see on Facebook."

In 2021, Haugen leaked thousands of internal documents from Facebook to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and The Wall Street Journal.
Among other things, she claimed that Facebook's news feed encourages hate speech in order to boost profits.
She also leaked internal Facebook research appearing to show that the firm knew that Instagram, which is owned by Facebook, is harmful to children.
Haugen's primary concern with the metaverse, however, is the extra data on users that it will make available to Meta.
Most read in Tech
The company has been hit by a number of data scandals down the years, including its lax handling of user data in the Cambridge Analytica scandal.
“I’m super concerned about how many sensors are involved," Haugen, a former data scientist at Facebook, said.
"When we do the Metaverse, we have to put lots more microphones from Facebook; lots more other kinds of sensors into our homes.
“You don’t really have a choice now on whether or not you want Facebook spying on you at home. We just have to trust the company to do the right thing.”
The metaverse is a loosely defined virtual realm made up of connected 3D virtual worlds where people can work, play or do business.
Visitors to the social spaces can buy goods and services, such as property, much like they would in the real world.
And while its creators tout the technology as the next step in the evolution of the internet, experts have warned that it poses "terrifying dangers" and needs to be policed.
Speaking last year, Dr David Reid, a professor of AI and Spatial Computing at Liverpool Hope University, also raised concerns about the vast amount of data that will be collected in the metaverse.
He said: "The metaverse has huge implications - it comes with fantastic advantages and terrifying dangers.
"Its ultimate aim is not just virtual reality, or augmented reality, it’s mixed reality (MR). It’s blending the digital and the real world together. Ultimately this blend may be so good, and so pervasive, that the virtual and the real become indistinguishable.
“And the market for that is gigantic. Whoever controls it, will basically have control over your entire reality."
He added that prototype systems track the movement of your face, eyes, body and hands while collecting data using sophisticated cameras. Some even read your brain waves and speech.
Professor Reid said: "The data this will generate will be vast…..and extremely valuable.
“And that’s why we need a system in place to police it. No single company should ever exert control - it’s simply too important for that to happen."

Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone has hinted at how his side will approach the second leg of their Champions League quarter final clash against Manchester City on Wednesday.
City won the first leg 1-0 last week thanks to Kevin De Bruyne's second-half strike, so they have the slight edge heading into Wednesday night’s finale at the Wanda Metropolitano. Pep Guardiola’s side then had another draining match at the weekend, with his side playing out a pulsating 2-2 draw against Premier League title rivals Liverpool.
City playmaker De Bruyne gave the hosts an early lead thanks to a deflected effort that cannoned in off the post but their lead lasted less than 10 minutes after Diogo Jota's strike squirmed under Ederson to swiftly give the Reds – who had started slower – parity. Gabriel Jesus – back in Pep Guardiola’s side’s starting XI in the Premier League for the first time since New Year’s Day - restored City's side lead in the 37th minute.
However less than 60 seconds of the second half had been played when Sadio Mane scored Liverpool's second equaliser of the game having latched onto Mohamed Salah's perfectly-weighted through ball. Despite both sides pushing for a winner, the game ended in a draw.
Ahead of the second leg in Madrid, the tie hangs in the balance although City will naturally be favourites to their recent record at home and in Europe. Ahead of the return leg, Simeone said he was taught to “always respect” those in the game even if he did not agree with them – when questioned about what he made of those who criticised his side’s ultra-defensive style of play in the first leg.
Simeone was then pressed on how he would set up against City at home: "It is clear that we are not going to stray too far from what we believe. Hopefully we can have better transitions, that our top players have a fantastic night. I don't think they (City) will change much. They have a well-known style of play, with great players, with a great coach, a highly praised style. We will see what we see whenever we turn on television to see City."
Have Your Say! Can Atletico defeat Man City and progress to the semi-finals? Tell us what you think here.
Despite Simeone suggesting they will stay true to their usual principles, Guardiola has predicted that his side would encounter a “different” match. He stated his belief that Atletico will be more “aggressive” in their style of play.
“In the first leg they defended the entire match, and that will not happen again,” said the City boss. “Playing against Atletico at home is very difficult. The Wanda (Atleti’s stadium) puts pressure on you and makes you have a hard time at times.”
The former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss, who has faced Simeone so many times before, then had a message for criticism of Simeone: "They criticized him in the first leg because Atletico lost. If he had won, everything would have been praise, but since he lost, he is frowned upon. Atletico has been doing that for a whole decade and it hasn't gone bad at all, has it?"

Esports Creates Thousands of STEM Jobs in a Variety of Fields
Calling esports a "job machine," Gerald Solomon founder and executive director of the North America Scholastic Esports Federation (NASEF) says on the new episode of the Let's Talk STEM with Dr. Calvin Mackie podcast that electronic sports gaming platforms are preparing young people with the skills they need for the workforce of tomorrow.
"It's a multibillion-dollar industry and there are all facets within it," Solomon says, adding that he frequently tells parents about the opportunities for jobs in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) throughout the esports / gaming industry.
"You may watch kids playing on a computer, but who built the game," Solomon asks. "Who coded it? Who set up the event? Who created the networking? Who's doing the coaching? Who did the data analytics and used mathematics statistics to determine how to play better? Who's doing the streaming and shout casting, which is the play-by-play announcement? Who created the art? Who did the logos? Who did the marketing? Who did the business development on it? Who created the IT infrastructure? That's all STEM. And that's the future."
Exactly, how big is esports?
Solomon says an event at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn sold out 19,000 seats in three hours, but that's isn't even the real story.
"The real statistic is more people watched kids play computers against other kids on the digital platform called Twitch than the total number of people that watched the Super Bowl, watched the NBA championships and watched the Major League Baseball Championship combined," he says. "Imagine what it's like when you have an audience of hundreds of millions of people who just sit there and watch kids play on computers. That tells you the impact of esports gaming."
A vivid example of esports and STEM learning: NASEF just launched a project that creates a "Farmcraft" world in the popular game Minecraft. "We're teaching kids around the world about agriculture biotechnology. We're teaching them about climate change, all of the sustainable developmental goals and issues that we in the world have to face. And they're doing it all through the play. They work as a team… They're learning entrepreneurship, they're learning innovation, they're doing it through experience. "
Further, Solomon says esports allows children from different backgrounds to play games and compete without any hang-ups over identities.
"You put them together in these clubs and they find their purpose and their sense because they're with like-minded people," he exclaims. "And you know, the interesting thing about esports and online gaming is (no one knows) if you're male or female, if you're Black or White or Brown. (We) don't know what your gender preference is. (We) don't even know what country you're in. You come in with these avatars and you represent yourself through this lens and you begin to develop relationships and friends."
Dr. Mackie agrees, saying, "Not only do you connect, play and learn, but the kids are getting transferable skills that can transfer to other jobs. There is a litany of different career paths that could come out of esports and gaming. And I think it's very important for parents to hear that because they can understand that these kids can take this habit that they have, or this hobby, and leap frog into something else."
Dr. Mackie thanked Solomon for years ago founding the STEM Ecosystem approach and making his STEM NOLA program a part of it. Dr. Mackie is building a STEM innovation hub in New Orleans and it will include a giant esports arena. "So, kids can come after school or on Saturdays to practice and compete," he says, noting that he looks forward to helping kids from Black and Brown communities experience esports, and learn the technology and skills for tomorrow's jobs.

FDA’s Mayne: ‘We can do more with more’
Reacting to a Politico article that was critical of the Food and Drug Administration’s performance in regulating food, Susan Mayne, director of the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN), today defended FDA’s performance on regulating food and assuring food safety, but added, “There is no question we could do more with more.”
Speaking in a webinar organized by the Alliance for a Stronger FDA, a lobbying group, Mayne said, “We take any and all criticism seriously as we work to execute our mission,” but she also reminded the advocates that the United States “has one of the safest food supplies in the world.”
Most people eat without thinking about food safety, she noted.
Mayne, who came to FDA in 2015 after three decades as a professor at Yale University, said, “I need to convey my perspective. I see a program that has gotten more done in the past seven years than at any time in history.” Mayne also noted that “FDA was under a deregulatory regime for four years,” a thinly veiled reference to the Trump administration.
The Politico article criticized FDA for slowness on implementing food regulations, but Mayne pointed out that in the last seven years the agency established a new nutrition facts label with an added sugars component, banned trans fat and has begun an initiative to establish sodium reduction targets including in restaurant food – the last a policy, she said, that other countries wish to emulate.
Mayne said President Biden’s FDA budget request to Congress for a $43 million increase for food safety modernization, including animal food safety oversight, would help FDA meet its goals, but she also pointed out the breadth of FDA’s food responsibilities and the smallness of the food division.
FDA oversees nearly 80% of the U.S. food supply, and unlike other divisions of FDA, does it “without meaningful user fees,” she said. The entire nutrition group is fewer than 70 people, and the tobacco products division budget is 30 times the budget for CFSAN, she said.
“We have more regulated industries we have to oversee than any other division,” she said, adding that “funding often doesn’t correlate to the work we have. In those other centers, they have user fees.
“We have to prioritize,” she added.
Regulatory agencies have to act within the authorities Congress gives them, she said.
CFSAN has a low attrition rate for employees but has to address retirements, she said. The food division has only normal hiring authority but could benefit from special hiring authority that the medical products division has, she explained.
Critics have complained that FDA has not yet published a final rule on water regulation for produce that is required under the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), which Congress passed in 2010 and President Obama signed in 2011. But Mayne said, “Ag water is a tough one. We have to look at all the ways it is used across the food system.”
The water rule is an important element in the produce food safety rule, “but it is not the only one,” she said. The produce rules are important, she explained, because consuming fruits and vegetables is such an important part of healthy eating.
Mayne noted that under FSMA, FDA has put out eight rules and 50 guidance documents and hopes to publish the food traceability rule by fall.
Mayne declined to discuss the case of Abbott, whose infant formula was recently recalled, because it is an active investigation.
Toward the end of the hour-long session, Mayne said, “We know we can do more with more.”
Asked if the Biden administration had asked for enough money for her division, Mayne said, “You know the process” – a reference to agency budget requests going to the White House Office of Management and Budget, which makes final decisions.
Mayne noted that outside groups advocate “for more than what is in the budget.”
Mayne said the reason she agreed to talk to the Alliance for a Stronger FDA was “to talk about our resources.”
“With your support, we will do more with more,” she concluded.

FDA’s Mayne: ‘We can do more with more’
Reacting to a Politico article that was critical of the Food and Drug Administration’s performance in regulating food, Susan Mayne, director of the Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN), today defended FDA’s performance…

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Wednesday that Russia was using phosphorus bombs in Ukraine and he accused Moscow of deploying terror tactics against civilians.
Addressing the Estonian parliament, Zelenskyy said: “The Russian army is using all types of artillery, all types of missile, air bombs in particular phosphorus bombs against residential districts and civilian infrastructure.
“This is clear terror against the civilian population.”
He did not provide evidence and Reuters has not been able to independently verify his claims.
Russia has denied targeting civilians since it invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24 and has said Ukrainian and western allegations of war crimes are fabricated.
Ukraine has said it is checking unverified information that Russia may have used chemical weapons while besieging the southern Ukrainian port city of Mariupol.
But Russia-backed separatists trying to seize complete control of the city have denied using chemical weapons and Moscow has in the past labelled U.S. talk of Russian forces using chemical weapons a tactic to divert attention away from awkward questions for Washington.
There was no immediate reaction from Moscow to Zelenskyy’s comments.
Zelenskyy also said Russia had been forcibly deporting Ukrainians, again without producing evidence, and called for economic sanctions on Russia to continue, saying they were the only way to force Russia to agree peace terms.
Ukraine should get European Union candidate status and that a visit by the presidents of Poland and Baltic countries later on Wednesday was important as a signal of support to Ukraine, he said.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has killed thousands and displaced millions.
Moscow calls its actions in Ukraine a “special operation” to destroy Ukraine’s military capabilities and root out what it views as dangerous nationalists, but Ukraine and the West say Russia launched an unprovoked war of aggression.

Abstract:
Background
The clinical outcome of B-cell lymphoma has improved dramatically due to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and biological agents. However, treatment of high-risk B cell lymphoma in the elderly remains a challenge because of their ineligibility for HSCT, high mortality and relapse rates. Maintenance therapy to improve the prognosis of B cell lymphoma in the elderly might be feasible.
Methods
We analyzed the efficacy of a combination of human recombinant granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) with the R2 regimen in maintenance therapy in high-risk B cell lymphoma in the elderly of our center. A total of 83 elderly patients, who were ineligible for auto-HSCT and had a response after 6 cycles of induction therapy above a partial response, were divided into two groups: observation (n = 44) and R2 + GM-CSF (n = 39) by enrollment time.
Results
The clinical data, survival outcome, and the number of peripheral blood mononuclear cells were analyzed and compared. The numbers of lymphocytes (1.19 × 109/L vs. 1.03 × 109/L, P = 0.0062) and leukocyte (6.46 × 109/L vs. 4.85×109/L, P = 0.0048) increased after receipt of maintenance therapy, particularly the number of natural killer cells (0.131 × 109/L vs. 0.061 × 109/L, P = 0.0244). Patients receiving R2 + GM-CSF for maintenance had longer-term remission (duration of response (DOR): 18.9 months vs. 11.3 months, P = 0.001), and longer-term progression free survival (PFS) (not reached (NR) vs. 31.7 months, P = 0.037), and overall survival (OS) (NR vs. NR, P = 0.015). The new R2 regimen was safe and well tolerated. The elderly, high-risk, and high tumor burden seemed to have tendency to be independent prognostic factors for a better PFS (P = 0.060, 0.012, 0.005).
Conclusions
The new R2 regimen prolonged progression-free survival and overall survival among elderly patients with high-risk B cell lymphoma, appeared to lead to improve response without compromising its tolerability profile in elderly patients who are ineligible to receive HSCT. The number of patients in this trial was limited and the conclusions should be verified in larger, prospective, multicenter studies.

Unit rents in Melbourne have jumped by $15 per week and the cost of renting a house hit a record high of $450 per week in the March quarter as the post-pandemic recovery prompts tenants to return to the city.
The increase in median unit rents was the steepest quarterly rise in eight years, up $15 per week to a median of $390, with the biggest rise recorded in the inner-city region, Domain’s Rent Report for the March quarter revealed.
Experts say the rise is a sign the city’s rental market is returning to normal, with many tenants who fled the city now returning. Inner-city suburbs, including the CBD, which took a battering when international students were kept out of the market, recorded a unit rent rise of $20 a week to a median of $400.
The Mornington Peninsula, where both house prices and rents have risen since 2020, was the only region to record a slight fall in rents – with units down by 2.7 per cent, or $10 a week.
Domain’s chief of research and economics Dr Nicola Powell said Melbourne’s rental market was telling two different stories at the same time.
While house rents were at a record high and unit rents were also up, the city is still one of the cheapest state capitals in which to rent.
“It’s a weird statement to make when house rents are at a record high,” Powell said. “Unit rents have had their first annual rise since pre-pandemic times, so that’s really taking the lead of the recovery.”
Tenants who had moved away from the city were now returning, with a higher rate of new household formation occurring, Powell said.
“People are not wanting to house-share any more, and that’s certainly showing because we have had unit rent rises for three consecutive quarters now,” she said.
In another sign the Melbourne rental market is turning, the vacancy rate tightened further in March to 1.8 per cent, well down from the peak of 5.2 per cent in December 2020.
That was making it a landlord’s market, and much harder for tenants to find a rental, Powell said.
ANZ senior economist Felicity Emmett said vacancy rates were dropping as landlords sold their properties to cut losses, while others had cashed in when house prices rose.
Landlords who were converting properties back to short-term rentals as travel reopened were also reducing the number of available long-term rentals for tenants, she said.
“Vacancy rates are dropping like a stone in both Sydney and Melbourne and that’s driving rental growth,” Emmett said.
Sharon Westin has first-hand experience of the problems facing many Melbourne tenants. The 45-year-old graphic designer has been forced to move out of at least five rental properties after the landlords sold, including one earlier this year.
Westin recently found a new rental in Ashwood, in the city’s south-east, which she moved into in March with her two teenagers. It was one of 30 properties she inspected over six weeks in Melbourne’s south-east, where rents rose to a median $450 per week.
“I’m a single parent now and this last move was much tougher than the others – there are more people at every inspection than there ever was,” Westin said.
It was her ninth move since having her children, who are now 16 and 14, with her weekly rent more than doubling since then.
Westin paid $9000 for the first month’s rent, bond and other moving costs. Her constant moves, which have come about every two years, have eaten away any savings she had. But it was still cheaper than buying in the area close to Balwyn where her children attend school.
“Every time I get ahead I have to move again,” she said.
Housing costs will be on the agenda this election after the recent federal budget did not boost the Commonwealth Rental Assistance subsidy, as some housing experts recommend. The budget offered little for social housing beyond finance for an estimated 10,000 new social housing units, compared to a waiting list of 160,000 households, and the government instead focused on increasing home ownership through a program of going guarantor for low-deposit buyers.
And tenants hoping for a reprieve from a cooling sales market may also be disappointed. Independent economist Saul Eslake said while prices were predicted to soften this year as interest rates rise, it would not affect rising rents.
“There is not much connection in my view between property prices and rents. If you look back at late 2017 to mid-2019, prices went down in Sydney and Melbourne, but that had no impact because there were no falls in rents during that period,” Eslake said.

And we all thought a suspenseful District 22-6A softball game was extinct, never to return to the local diamonds ever again.
Deer Park and Dobie, two teams who have completely flattened the rest of the district by an average of 13.3 runs per game for Deer Park and 12.5 runs for Dobie, collided at very windy Doll Forrest Field Tuesday night.
The two played like they’re proudly headed to the Class 6A state playoffs as Deer Park answered every challenge, culminating with a sixth-inning uprising that saw the team score a pair of unearned runs in sparking the unbeaten Lady Deer to a 6-4 Teacher Appreciation Night victory and the district championship.
Lady Longhorns head coach Robin Rackley isn’t a proponent of moral victories, but she sure was more pleased with her team than she was a month ago when Deer Park trounced Dobie 14-0 in a game that was stopped in the fifth inning.
Dobie even rallied from 3-1 and 4-2 deficits to create a 4-4 tie in the top of the sixth inning, but that’s when the No. 5 team in the nation manufactured a one-out rally to get their winning scores.
“I’m not making excuses, but there was a lot going on that game. That first game was not us, not us at all. This team has fight in them,” Rackley said.
“I think all-around, we didn’t play quite as sharp, But Dobie did a fabulous job of putting pressure on us. It allowed us to go home and know what we’ve got to fix,” Deer Park head coach Amy Vidal said.
Madison Applebe, in relief of starter Aubrey Graham, earned the win in the pitching circle as she outdueled Marisa Perla, who went the full seven innings.
Perla had an off-speed pitch that seemed to give the Lady Deer trouble. Very possibly, she may not have gone to it enough. As an example, she retired the opening two batters in the fourth by taking something off her pitches, resulting in a swinging third strike and a fly ball to Perla.
But three batters later, Deer Park had inflated the lead to 3-1 when Kayla Zaid jumped on the first offering and singled sharply to left.
Dobie, which racked up nine hits after the first inning, started off the seventh with an infield single, putting the tying run at the plate. But Applebe stopped the suspense right there, registering three straight outs, including two strikeouts to end the game.
“We stuck to our plan and worked very hard in our practices on what we were going to do,” Rackley said.
But the seventh inning was nothing for Applebe compared to the fifth inning. An Aliyah Barajas infield single and a Karlie Barba stand-up double had two in scoring position with no outs. But the Lady Longhorns could only get one run.
The defense didn’t stick to the plan and that was to not give Deer Park four and five outs in an inning. Two errors by Dobie’s shortstop in the home half of the sixth inning set the stage for Angelina Morales to bloop a ball in front of a diving left fielder for one go-ahead run and then with the Lady Longhorns forgetting about Madison Bailey on third, she alertly stole home.
More infield defensive woes way back in the first inning allowed Deer Park to erase a 1-0 deficit by scoring twice.
Deer Park manufactured its second two-run lead in the fifth on an Angelina Morales single, an Erin Perez walk, a Julia Donnell single and a Lorelei Graham ground out.
But a one-out Dobie rally in the sixth saw Claire Ramirez and Gabby Galvan single to center, before a sac fly by Perla advanced both into scoring position for Barajas, who roped a game-tying double down the left-field line.
Deer Park had surrendered the grand total of five runs the entire district race and Dobie nearly doubled that total in two hours.
Preventing Dobie’s uprising from getting any worse, Zaid throwing out a runner from her knees at her second base position was big. Had the ball gotten through, the Lady Deer may have been looking at a 5-4 deficit and down to their last six outs.
The two teams have just one day to move beyond their showdown. The district resumes action on Thursday with both playing at the PISD Complex. Dobie opposes Memorial and Deer Park catches Pasadena. Both are 6 p.m. starts.

LONDON: Oil prices edged higher on Wednesday after Moscow said that peace talks with Ukraine had hit a dead end, fueling supply worries, while weak economic data from China and Japan kept a lid on gains.
Brent crude rose by 48 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $105.12 a barrel by 0808 GMT while US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures gained 28 cents, or 0.3 percent, to $100.88. Both benchmarks had surged by more than 6 percent on Tuesday.
“The downside for oil prices is limited,” said OANDA senior market analyst Jeffrey Halley, citing the Russian comments on peace talks and US President Joe Biden accusing Russia of genocide. These “are reinforcing that the Ukraine-Russia situation will not be de-escalating any time soon.”
Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday blamed Ukraine for derailing peace talks and said Moscow would not let up on what it calls a “special operation” to disarm its neighbor.
Crude futures are also drawing support from Russian oil and gas condensate production falling to below 10 million barrels per day (bpd) on Monday, its lowest since July 2020.
The International Energy Agency on Tuesday said it expected Russian oil output losses to average 1.5 million bpd in April, with losses growing to close to 3 million bpd from May.
Western sanctions against Russia and logistical constraints have hampered trade, people familiar with the data said on Tuesday.
OPEC has warned that it would be impossible to replace potential supply losses from Russia and signalled that it would not pump more crude.
Reports this week of partial easing of some of China’s tight COVID-19 lockdown measures also underpinned oil prices.
Price gains, however, were kept in check by weak data from China and Japan.
China’s crude oil imports slipped 14 percent from a year earlier, extending a two-month slide, as strict coronavirus restrictions hit demand in the world’s top crude importer.
Japan reported its biggest monthly fall in core machinery orders in nearly two years, dragged down by a steep drop in demand from IT and other service companies.
The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries on Tuesday cut its forecast for 2022 global oil demand growth, citing the impact of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, rising inflation as crude prices soar and the resurgence of the omicron coronavirus variant in China.
OPEC now expects global demand to grow by 3.67 million bpd in 2022, down 480,000 bpd from its previous forecast.

A Coronation Street extra was reportedly fired for taking a selfie on set with a Good Morning Britain presenter. Matthew Davidge says he has starred on the soap for 36 years but was fired after taking a picture with presenter Andi Peters, the Mirror reports.
Mr Davidge, 54, told the Sun he had spotted Andi after he "nipped to the loo" during filming last Friday. He says he asked him to pose for a socially distanced picture, which he did, with a GMB crew member taking the photo. Andi was filming a GMB competition on the set at the time.
But he says he was then dropped from his acting agency who said he had “breached the terms of his contract” which bans them from using their mobile phones on set. The Bolton-born star said he has taken “dozens” of selfies with stars, but has never been reprimanded, until now. A Coronation Street spokesperson said: “During filming of a GMB competition segment on the set last week a walk-on artist was seen breaching filming protocols and his agent was notified, they decided on a course of action."
This Morning fans say Josie and Vernon are 'perfect pair on TV - read more here.
“Andi Peters was not aware of this complaint,” they added. “I’m speechless. I’ve worked on the set of Corrie on and off since 1986. I’ve never had a complaint and I’ve loved every minute of it. Now, it’s all over,” Mr Davidge told The Sun.
“You’re not supposed to have your phone out on set but everyone does. It’s a rule that’s never really been enforced,” Matthew explained, as he said it was a “bit of a laugh” asking Andi for a snap. “The whole interaction took less than a minute. Now I don’t know how I’m going to pay my bills,” he added.

The U.S. federal tax code is arguably more demoralizing than it should be, in part due to the millions of dollars tax-filing service providers spend on lobbying against simpler procedures used in other developed countries. (Here are counties where families need to budget the most for taxes in every state.)
But at least the federal tax code is uniform across the country. State and local taxes vary widely from one place to the next, which means Americans who move or work across state lines must adapt themselves to changes in state and local tax codes.
One way to measure a state’s tax “friendliness” is to examine the individual and corporate state income taxes, and the average of state and local sales taxes. These are the primary taxes paid by most Americans and the main sources of public revenue to help finance public services and infrastructure, from Medicare and Medicaid to roads and parks maintenance to the salaries of teachers, police, and fire departments.
To determine the most and least tax-friendly states for business, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed data from the Tax Foundation’s 2022 State Business Tax Climate Index. States were ranked based on their State Business Tax Climate Index score, a composite of five factors measuring individual income tax, sales tax, corporate income tax, property tax, and unemployment insurance tax. (Here are the states with the highest and lowest property taxes.)
According to the most recent data from the Tax Foundation, seven states levy no individual income tax: Texas, Tennessee, Nevada, Florida, Alaska, and South Dakota. Four states have no individual income tax and no corporate income tax: Texas, Nevada, South Dakota, and Wyoming.
Additionally, South Dakota and Wyoming are the only two states in the country that have no income tax, no corporate income tax, and no tax on gross receipts, a tax on a company’s sales without cost-of-business deductions. While Ohio, Texas, and Washington do not have a corporate income tax, they do have a gross receipts tax. Meanwhile, Delaware and Virginia have a gross receipts tax in addition to the corporate income tax.
Weighing the tax burdens of individuals and companies can lead to a general determination of a state’s tax friendliness — meaning lower taxes. In some states, lower taxes also mean fewer social services, higher deficits, and/or dependence on federal subsidies funded by taxpayers in other states.
Here are the most and least tax friendly states

Fewer working in offices after pandemic lockdowns
Fewer people in Sunderland are working from the office than before the coronavirus pandemic, new figures suggest.
Google uses location data from phones and other personal devices to track trends in people's movement in different areas of their daily lives, including where they work.
The most recent figures show activity in workplaces in the city in the week to April 1 was 23% lower than during a five-week baseline period recorded before the coronavirus pandemic.
The Institute for the Future of Work (IFW) says Covid-19 rules led to a rise in homeworking.
Separate figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) show that, between March 16 and 27, 12% of people were working exclusively from home, with 57% travelling to work every day and 14% doing a combination of both.
The IFoW, an independent research and development institute, said lockdown restrictions acted as a catalyst for more remote work, with some employers and employees keen to retain the benefits.
A spokeswoman for the group said: "Our research finds that individual preferences vary hugely, with some missing the everyday social interactions of a shared work space and experiencing an increased blurring of work-life boundaries.
"Since people’s experiences vary so much, it is important employers meaningfully consult with employees on a regular basis about home working."
The Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service, which provides impartial workplace advice, said the Google figures match with their own research and that over half of employers expected to see an increase in remote working once the pandemic was over.

Taking a step forward towards updating the complete records of urban local bodies (ULBs) in Haryana on a digital platform, the Chief Minister Manohar Khattar on Wednesday digitally launched the ‘Nagar Darshan’ portal.
On this portal, citizens will be able to put up their demands, complaints and suggestions according to the development projects being carried out in their area.
The CM said now citizens will be able to put any demand related to development works in their ward on the ‘Nagar Darshan’ portal. Apart from this, they can also file online complaints and suggestions on this portal, which will automatically be sent to the concerned Department for further action.
Khattar said with the launch of ‘Nagar Darshan’ portal, the details of the completed, ongoing and required development projects in ULBs will be available online
Besides this, it will also prove to be effective in enhancing the credibility of the development works and will also work as a source of information for the citizens which will further help in better implementation of developmental plans and projects in ULBs.
He further informed that the main objective of ‘Nagar Darshan’ is to make all government services accessible to citizens through the websites of ULBs which would ensure efficiency, transparency and reliability of all services provided to citizens.
The CM said it was the vision of the state government that ULBs in Haryana should have their own website so as to ensure that people should know the details of various developmental schemes and projects being carried out in their local area and they can put up their demands before the state government as per their requirements.

SALADO, Texas (AP) — Nearly two dozen people were injured when tornadoes swept through central Texas as part of a storm system that was expected to spawn more twisters and damaging winds Wednesday.
The storms caused widespread damage Tuesday in Salado, about 50 miles (80 kilometers) north of Austin. Bell County Judge David Blackburn said 23 people were injured, one of them critically. Twelve of the injured were taken to hospitals, Blackburn said.
“There’s not much left,” said Blackburn, the county's top elected official. “Large trees are uprooted and overturned and stripped. Buildings really reduced to rubble. ... Power lines, power poles, are scattered all over the place. It’s pretty devastating.”
Photos on social media showed grapefruit-size hail associated with that storm.
Tornadoes were also spotted Tuesday in Iowa, but there were no reports of serious injuries. In Lincoln, Nebraska, powerful wind gusts knocked down tree limbs and caused some roof damage. A possible tornado also caused damage in the small southern Minnesota town of Taopi near the state's border with Iowa.
Mower County Sheriff Steve Sandvik said dispatchers began getting calls from residents trapped in their damaged homes not long after a tornado warning siren sounded at 10:30 p.m. Tuesday. There were no reports of serious injuries. Weather service crews were assessing damage in the area Wednesday.
More tornadoes were in the forecast Wednesday for parts of the mid-South and in the Mississippi River Valley, the Storm Prediction Center said.
Hurricane-force winds, intense tornadoes and large hail were possible in Arkansas, Illinois, Tennessee, Missouri, Kentucky, Mississippi, Indiana, Louisiana and Alabama, forecasters said. Little Rock, Arkansas, and Memphis, Tennessee, were among the cities that could see the worst weather Wednesday, the Storm Prediction Center said.
Elsewhere, the North Dakota Capitol, schools, government offices and interstates remained closed Wednesday as a blizzard continued to bear down on the state.
A blizzard warning issued by the National Weather Service remained in effect through Thursday for most of western and central North Dakota where up to 2 feet (60 centimeters) of snow was expected.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Biden administration will extend for two weeks the nationwide mask requirement for public transit as it monitors an uptick in COVID-19 cases, according to a person familiar with the matter.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was set to extend the order, which was to expire on April 18, by two weeks to monitor for any observable increase in severe virus outcomes as cases rise in parts of the country. The move was being made out of abundance of caution, the person said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to preview the CDC's action. The requirement will now extend through May 3, 2022.
When the Transportation Security Administration, which enforces the rule for planes, buses, trains and transit hubs, extended the requirement last month, it said the CDC had been hoping to roll out a more flexible masking strategy that would have replaced the nationwide requirement.
The mask mandate is the most visible vestige of government restrictions to control the pandemic, and possibly the most controversial. A surge of abusive and sometimes violent incidents on airplanes has been attributed mostly to disputes over mask-wearing.
Critics have seized on the fact that states have rolled back rules requiring masks in restaurants, stores and other indoor settings, and yet COVID-19 cases have fallen sharply since the omicron variant peaked in mid-January.
There has been a slight increase in cases in recent weeks, driven by an even more contagious subvariant of the omicron strain, with daily confirmed cases nationwide rising from about 25,000 per day to more than 30,000. Those figures are an undercount since many people now test positive on at-home tests that are not reported to public health agencies.
Severe illnesses and deaths tend to lag infections by several weeks. The CDC is awaiting indications of whether the increase in cases correlates to a rise in adverse outcomes before announcing a less restrictive mask policy for travel.

Key Patent for Atmofizer's Air Purification Technology
This news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's prospectus supplement dated February 23, 2022 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated January 14, 2022
VANCOUVER, BC, April 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Atmofizer Technologies Inc. (the "Company" or "Atmofizer") (CSE: ATMO) (Frankfurt: J3K) (OTCQB: ATMFF) announces today that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the "USPTO") has issued a patent related to the Company's air and water purification technology.
The issued patent, titled, "Ultra-Fine Particle Aggregation, Neutralization and Filtration" (US Patent Application No. 17/471,610) provides broad protection for the application of the Company's air and water purification technology.
"This US patent provides protection for our intellectual property and further validation of our novel approach to air and water purification technology and enables Atmofizer to confidently pursue further development of its technology," said Atmofizer CEO, Olivier Centner. "This patent is a critical step in protecting our technology and establishing ourselves as the leaders in purifying air from even the smallest ultra-fine particles. COVID-19 has raised awareness of the importance of indoor air quality and the dangers posed by ultra-fine particles and the market is growing exponentially."
"The importance of this issued patent for Atmofizer is that the patent covers Atmofizer's current commercial embodiment of its flagship air purifier," said Atmofizer Patent Attorney, Joel Weiss. "The innovations claimed in the issued patent represent important steps forward in providing clean and comfortable air in today's confined living spaces."
Atmofizer has entered into a debt settlement agreement ("Debt Settlement Agreement") with an arm's length business development and media consultant of the Company, for debt in the aggregate amount of $225,000 (the "Debt"). To satisfy the Debt, the Company will issue an aggregate of 2,500,000 common shares in the authorized share structure of the Company ("Common Shares") at a deemed price of $0.09 per share, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the Debt Settlement Agreement.
The Common Shares issued are subject to a statutory hold period that will expire four months and one day from the date of issuance in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.
All amounts are in Canadian dollars unless stated otherwise.
Atmofizer's consumer and industrial solutions are based on its patent-protected and patent pending technology for ultrafine particle agglomeration and neutralization. This capability creates a revolutionary and more efficient method for addressing the wide range of dangerous nano-scale particles, viruses and bacteria that are too small to be effectively managed by conventional HEPA filters and ultraviolet lights. Atmofizer plans to disrupt the air treatment industry by improving air safety and purification efficiency while lowering customers' operational costs.
Atmofizing air refers to the process of using ultrasonic acoustic waves to agglomerate (cluster together) small particles into a larger target that is then radiated by ultraviolet light to neutralize their harmful properties, making the air you breath less hazardous to your health. Using units that atmofize air in tandem with HEPA filters can make the HEPA filters work more efficiently, enable the use of a less-powerful filter and result in a cleaner and longer-lasting filter that reduces operating costs and is less of a health hazard to clean or replace.
Atmofizer is patent-pending and patent-protected sole source of technology to atmofize air and is applying its proprietary technology in consumer and industrial air purification products currently manufactured under the Atmofizer brand, as well as in retail and commercial devices produced by other companies that integrate Atmofizer technology into their own products under license. Atmofizer's owned and licensed product lines include wearable, portable and mobile use for personal air treatment, as well as larger systems to handle higher air volumes for commercial, industrial, institutional and residential applications.

How Online Betting Sites Became Popular
Life without the internet is an almost unthinkable prospect in today’s world. There is a generation of people who have never known a time when the internet did not exist. Many of us have become practically reliant on online access as part of our daily lives, and the internet has had a significant impact on a wide range of issues. Because of the World Wide Web, the way we communicate, shop, and conduct business has all changed dramatically.
The online world has had a significant effect on a range of industry segments, including the wagering or gambling industry. From small beginnings, online betting has grown into a multibillion-dollar industry. Hundreds of online betting websites offer a wide range of products and services to customers all over the world. Anyone with an internet connection can play casino games, bet on sporting events, play poker, enjoy platforms like m w88 etc.
What Are Online Betting Sites?
Online gambling is the virtual form of gambling taking place with the help of the internet. Therefore, online betting sites are software that is specifically designed for the execution of those bets via the internet on people’s compatible devices.
For some or all of their products, many betting sites rely on third-party technology providers. Sometimes, some of these providers provide software to many of the largest operators, which explains why one can notice a lot of similarities between one or more websites. The ingenuity and creativity of these companies have played an important role in the evolution of online gambling.
There have been a few sites in particular that have had a significant impact on the industry throughout the history of online betting. The stories behind how these locations evolved can be quite fascinating. One such online betting site is m w88 .
When Did Online Betting Begin?
It is difficult to pinpoint the exact beginning date of online gambling, but it is widely assumed that it began in 1994. During this time, the island nation of Antigua and Barbuda passed the Free Trade and Processing Act. Under the terms of this act, licenses could be granted to companies that wanted to provide gambling services over the internet. Online betting grew in popularity in the late 1990s; there were only fifteen betting websites in 1996, but by the following year, that number had increased to 200. According to one report, online gambling revenue surpassed $830 million in 1998. The first online poker rooms were also established in the same year. The online betting industry has grown at an incredible rate since then. The global market is now valued at around $40 billion per year, according to various estimates.
Due to the virtual nature of online gambling, it is difficult for players to verify the legitimacy of the sites they are using.
RGFs (Responsible Gambling Features) are features that online betting sites use to encourage responsible behaviour and reduce harm. Limiting the amount that can be bet or deposited over a set time, self-assessment tests for gambling problems, and warning signs of excessive play or high expenditure are all examples of these.

(CBS4) – Dozens of parents gave agonizing testimony at the Colorado State Capitol Tuesday as lawmakers took up a sweeping bill aimed at addressing the fentanyl crisis.
Since 2019, deadly fentanyl overdoses in Colorado have jumped 260%. One of the cases that pushed the emergency into the spotlight was in Commerce City. Five people died in one apartment when they used what they thought was cocaine. It turned out to be pure fentanyl.
More than 150 people showed up to testify on the bill, including police, prosecutors, public defenders and medical providers.
Parents whose kids were killed by the synthetic opiate begged lawmakers to take action.
“I literally feel a like piece of my soul has been ripped from me,” said Tesa Alirez when she described losing her daughter.
Matt Riviere said he had barely heard of fentanyl until his sons died.
“I lost my only two sons to fentanyl poisoning,” he said.
Matt Taylor told lawmakers his son bought fentanyl on Snapchat. He says he held his son as the life slipped out of him.
“I kept my hand on his chest until his heart stopped beating,” he said.
“The day Alex’s heart stopped, mine broke,” said mom Lindsey Taylor.
Parents said their child was poisoned with fentanyl and prosecutors could do little to hold the killer responsible.
“These are murders happening with no investigations,” said Riviere.
The bill by Colorado House Speaker Alec Garnett and state Rep. Mike Lynch is aimed at changing that. It makes distribution of even small amounts of fentanyl a felony whether the person knows its fentanyl or not and requires mandatory prison for distribution resulting in death, depending on the amount of fentanyl sold. District attorneys testified that the bill doesn’t go far enough.
“A life is a life, and it shouldn’t be tied any way to the amount of fentanyl that is distributed,” said 18th Judicial District Attorney John Kellner.
But medical providers and public defenders said the bill goes too far.
“Incarceration and felonies don’t prevent overdoses,” said one opponent who said the money should instead be diverted to treatment.
Dr. Josh Barocas, an Infectious Disease Physician at CU Medical School agreed.
“Strong scientific evidence supports that criminalization simply doesn’t work,” he said.
Barocas says the bill will have the opposite effect of saving lives. He says people who don’t receive treatment in prison will come out and overdose.
The most contested provision in the bill is around possession, not distribution.
“Because this drug is so lethal, we must use every tool at our disposal to get it off the streets,” said 17th Judicial District Attorney Brian Mason, who is leading the Commerce City investigation.
Under the bill, possession of 4 grams or less of fentanyl remains a misdemeanor. Two milligrams is deadly.
Some prosecutors argued possession of even trace amounts should be a felony.
“We simply cannot go on treating fentanyl — this deadly poison — the same as, frankly, a shoplifting ticket,” said Kellner.
Phil Cherner with the Colorado Defense Bar argued against charging users with felonies, saying it doesn’t deter someone who has a substance use disorder.
“You’re telling someone that’s already risking their (life) by taking a drug that they may in fact be looking at another few months in jail.”
He says many people don’t know the drug they’re taking is fentanyl, which is found everything from cocaine to pills sold as Oxycodone.
“How do you deter someone from committing a crime they don’t know they’re committing?” asked Cherner.
An impasse over the possession issue could kill the bill.
Boulder District Attorney Michael Dougherty says there is an urgency to the bill’s passage.
“If this bill dies, people will continue to die at a tragic and alarming rate,” he said.
Lowering the amount of fentanyl that triggers a felony is among the amendments that lawmakers will consider and it could cost sponsors the support of some Democrats.
But if they don’t lower the felony possession amount, the bill will almost certainly fail.
Republican leader of the House Hugh McKean says if the amendment passes, there will be enough Republicans supporting the bill to ensure its passage out of the House.
“A solution to how to get this killer poison off our streets is a top priority. In our talks with the Democrats we have been clear about what real solutions look like,” he said.
First, it has to get out of committee. The hearing lasted into the early morning hours Wednesday.

MPs in the Bristol area have called for Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Chancellor Rishi Sunak to resign.
Both politicians have been fined by police for breaking lockdown rules in Downing Street in June 2020, but are rejecting calls to resign. The PM's wife Carrie Johnson also received a fine relating to a surprise birthday party for her husband that broke coronavirus rules.
Mr Johnson has said that he has paid the fixed penalty notice relating to a gathering in the Cabinet Room on his birthday on June 19 2020, and offered a “full apology”. Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has called for the Prime Minister and Mr Sunak to resign following the issuing of fines for breaking coronavirus laws, and those calls have now been echoed by MPs in the Bristol area.

Thangam Debbonaire, MP for Bristol West, "After months of lies, the Prime Minister and the Chancellor think they can give a half-apology and we will all move on and forget about it. That’s not good enough.
"There are people who spent months away not being able to see a loved one living in a care home. People who lost their jobs. Others who were desperately lonely but still avoided all contact with friends and family, because it was the right thing to do.
"Johnson and Sunak must resign. How can we have people in the highest offices in the country, that cannot stick to laws they themselves made for the rest of us and presented every night on TV?"
Kerry McCarthy, MP for Bristol East, said: “My constituents made huge personal sacrifices to follow the Covid rules and have every right to be angry.
"Both the Prime Minister and the Chancellor lied to Parliament about this. Both of them have been involved in other controversies, which put them in a very bad light. Paying a £50 FPN cannot be the end of it; if they had any integrity, they would accept they now have to resign.
"As Keir Starmer has said: 'This is the first time in the history of our country that a Prime Minister has been found to be in breach of the law, and then he lied repeatedly to the public about it. Britain deserves better, they have to go.'"
Darren Jones, MP for Bristol North West, said: "The Prime Minister should clearly recall Parliament, correct the record and then offer his resignation. Any other Prime Minister who had been found to have broken the law would do so.
"Boris Johnson seems to think he’s above the rule of law, Parliamentary protocol and the precedents that underpin our unwritten constitution. He will, however, get away with it all unless Conservative MPs step up and force a change in leader.
"I sadly don’t expect that to happen, which is an indictment on the modern Conservative Party and its Members of Parliament, as well as the Prime Minister."
However, conservative MP for North East Somerset Jacob Rees-Mogg tweeted: "This ought to close this matter. There is a war on and the Prime Minister, supported by the Chancellor, provides the leadership the nation needs."

EU to decide on Pakistan's GSP+ status beyond 2023 after review; NGOs, academics critical of compliances
By ANI | Published: April 13, 2022 09:30 PM2022-04-13T21:30:14+5:302022-04-13T21:40:07+5:30
The European Union's GSP+ (Generalised Scheme of Preferences - 'GSP+') status of Pakistan is under review for the period beginning 2024 and the country's NGOs, academics, trade unions and civil-society groups continue to be critical of compliances on even very basic principles on which the GSP+ status has been granted by the EU.
The European Union's GSP+ (Generalised Scheme of Preferences - 'GSP+') status of Pakistan is under review for the period beginning 2024 and the country's NGOs, academics, trade unions and civil-society groups continue to be critical of compliances on even very basic principles on which the GSP+ status has been granted by the EU.
Despite the lack of compliance, the EU has not suspended the GSP+ scheme and the related benefits, according to an article in Geopolitica.info.
Valerio Fabbri said the GSP+ scheme is supposed to incentivize social and environmental conditions to support Islamabad's efforts of uplifting the poor. The EU consistently monitors compliance by focusing on the situation of bonded labour and the protection of children and women's rights in Pakistan.
The article said that benefits of GSP+ status to Pakistan were pocketed by the business elite and feudal landlords (zamindars), without any improvement in labour working conditions or wage increases.
The European Institute for Asian Studies (EIAS) recently conducted an assessment of the EU's GSP+ status in different sectors of the Pakistani economy and found that working conditions and the protection of children and women's rights had not improved much in Pakistan. Furthermore, the landlords also charge rent from the workers and their families who stay in their properties in spite of meagre salaries. According to some reports, the elite even siphoned the benefits of the scheme to offshore bank accounts.
The EIAS report was published in a concept note titled "Addressing the EU's GSP+ Dilemma - An assessment of Pakistan's GSP+ status".
Under the EU's GSP+, Pakistan benefited mainly through exports of clothing and textiles to the EU market and 78 per cent of Pakistan's exports enter the EU market at preferential rates.
The report found that bonded labour arrangements (debt slavery) continue to be widespread in Pakistan, especially in rural areas, denying workers even opportunities for education and employment.
Despite the EU extending GSP+ benefits, they were 'trapped in a downward spiral of rising debt, and an estimated 3 million people in Pakistan effectively live as indentured servants,' stated the assessment report.
Even in urban manufacturing centres like Sialkot, where about 70 per cent of global football manufacturing takes place, many workers still earn below the standard minimum wage, said Fabbri.
According to the workers' rights group Labour Qaumi Movement, so far barely 10 per cent of the workforce have actually received social security cards, even though the GSP+ conditionalities require all workers to receive them.
Women and children are part of the most vulnerable groups in Pakistan and are often being exploited and subjected to human trafficking. They are also forced to work under inhumane and bonded labour conditions and face a great risk of sexual violence. There are currently over 2 million child labourers in Pakistan, reported Geopolitica.info.
The EU report noted that law enforcement remains very weak, particularly outside densely populated Punjab province. Although a great number of laws and regulations already exist or have been introduced, they have not been implemented, let alone enforced.
"These observations gain significance as the GSP+ scheme is currently under review for 2024-2034, since the current one expires at the end of next year," the report said.
Despite claims made by Islamabad on the progress in implementing the laws related to human rights, EU delegations found it otherwise during their various field visits, said Fabbri.
In the unskilled, labour-intensive industries such as leather, carpet, aquaculture and food-processing, construction and kilns industries, workers faced increased vulnerability.
According to the Pakistan Workers Confederation (PWC), the country is in a "state of near non-implementation" with regard to many of the International Labour Organization (ILO)'s core labour conventions. Pakistan has yet to ratify, inter alia, the ILO's 1970 Minimum Wage Fixing Convention.
The country's NGOs, academics, trade unions and civil-society groups continue to be critical of compliances on even very basic principles on which the GSP+ status has been granted by the EU.

Stockport County set to bring big following to Chesterfield in anticipation of winning National League title
There is set to be a bumper crowd at the Technique Stadium next month when league leaders Stockport County visit Derbyshire.
Having already sold-out their initial allocation of 1,800 for the match on Monday, Monday 2, the Hatters have now been granted another 800 tickets which are due to go on sale next week.
Stockport, who currently have an eight-point lead over second-placed Wrexham, come to the Technique when there will be just three matches of the regular season remaining.
From a Hatters point of view, there is a lot of anticipation around the fixture because it could be the day they clinch the title and automatic promotion back to League Two. And with it being a bank holiday, it is sure to be a special atmosphere.
At one point it looked like the fixture between the two teams could be a title decider, but Stockport’s incredible form since Dave Challinor was appointed in November has meant they have opened up a 12-point lead over Town.
But there could still be a lot riding on the game for the Blues as they aim to secure a play-off place and possibly a top three spot.
The two sides played out an entertaining 2-2 draw at Edgeley Park in February, with Stockport coming from two goals down after Chesterfield had Jeff King sent off.
"We're pleased to confirm that after conversations with Chesterfield, we have been allocated a further 800 tickets in the away end for the game on Monday 2nd May,” the Hatters said.
“These will be sent to the club next week, and an on-sale plan will be announced in due course.”

The interior color option is a combination of white and black.
INDI ONE will start at $45,000; a premium model will be priced at $69,000. Customers are eligible for a federal tax credit of up to $7,500.
Since the company introduced the INDI ONE prototype in 2021, the INDI ONE has become one of the industry's most highly anticipated debuts. The INDI ONE is unlike any other electric vehicle on the market, showcasing INDIEV's expressive design philosophy and a sophisticated technology platform. By offering them a digital toolbox, INDI EV empowers owners to customize and reshape the in-car experience without compromising their individuality.
"The future of smart mobility is in lockstep with the progression of Web3. Consumers today expect their vehicles to come with the required technology and equipment to intuitively adapt to their needs and interests. For some, that means playing podcasts and issuing basic voice commands. For others, it means VR gaming and live streaming. INDI ONE is revolutionary because it's not just a mode of transportation; it was designed from the ground-up to be a technology platform to help you live a better life," explained Andre Hudson, head of design, INDI EV.
Smartphone users frequently update and customize even the most mundane features, like alarms and ring tones, to express their individuality. The INDI ONE gives drivers the freedom to customize their vehicle in countless ways, like changing the sound of the horn, building a dog gate in the trunk, or tuning the vehicle to become the ultimate mobile content creation. Creating a space that learns, responds to, and fits your needs: it's the embodiment of INDI EV's "You Do You" philosophy.
VEHICLE INTEGRATED COMPUTER (VIC)
With no internal combustion engine, the eye-catching tinted glass hood instead covers the heart of the vehicle: the Vehicle Integrated Computer (VIC), the first-ever in-vehicle integrated computer capable of high-end gaming and much more. Supported by an open-sourced network and Software Development Kit (SDK) for third-party developers, VIC offers an array of media hardware and services including Life Assistant, a personalized virtual assistant equipped to learn your habits and enhance your life.
VIC's advanced software allows riders (not drivers) to play the latest generation games; capture content while the vehicle is in motion thanks to interior and exterior cameras; live stream videos; and even shoot, edit, and upload content to the cloud – all from inside the vehicle.
"As EV adoption increases, future generations will make their purchasing decisions based on vehicles' computing power and how well their technology supports and enhances their lives. We feel confident that INDI EV is positioned favorably to capture the hearts and minds of these buyers," added Hudson.
SPACIOUS, SPORTY INTERIOR DESIGN
INDI ONE's interior takes full advantage of the design freedom offered by electrification. It offers a beautiful minimalist cabin, with extensive use of sustainable, recycled materials, complemented by a panoramic sunroof window. A flat floor for the cabin provides plenty of legroom for passengers, as well as 43 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row. The dashboard screen features the speedometer and range gauge, as the rest of the dash supports a 15-inch center screen for infotainment and navigation, and a 15-inch right screen for passengers.
The center armrest holds a wireless phone charger, USB ports, and a small beverage cooler that fits up to four cans of your favorite beverage.
INTUITIVE SAFETY WARNINGS
INDI's proprietary HALO Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) Warning System is an onboard suite of safety features. It consolidates all directional warnings in one place that is easily visible and intuitive to the driver. This system is more intuitive than traditional warning systems and allows users to react quicker to dangers around them.

Cedric McMillan, star bodybuilder, dead at 44
By Jack Guy, CNN
Bodybuilder Cedric McMillan has died at the age of 44, his sponsor confirmed Tuesday.
“We regret to inform you that our friend and brother @cedricmcmillan passed away today. Cedric will be greatly missed as an athlete, comrade, friend, and father,” Black Skull USA, a supplements company, wrote in a post on Instagram. The company didn’t provide further details around McMillan’s death.
“Our prayers are with all his family and friends. He ‘fought the good fight’ and now he rests,” it added.
McMillan won the 2017 Arnold Classic bodybuilding competition, and the organizer, the Arnold Sports Festival, said it was “heartbroken” in a tribute on Instagram.
“Known for his larger than life personality, his infectious smile, a gentle heart, and a sense of humor that was loved by fellow competitors and fans alike, Cedric will be deeply missed,” the post reads.
The organization is named after famed bodybuilder Arnold Schwarzenegger, and the post includes a photo of McMillan and Schwarzenegger together.
McMillan won multiple titles and became a “star in the world of bodybuilding and fitness,” as well as serving for more than 20 years in the US Army, where he rose to the rank of Sergeant First Class, the post continues.
“Above all, Cedric McMillan was a husband and a father, and we send our most heartfelt condolences to his family during this incredibly difficult time,” it reads.
CNN has contacted the US military for comment.

PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — The federal government has approved a proposal to increase at-sea monitoring of some commercial fishing trips to 100%.
At-sea monitors are workers who collect data on board commercial fishing boats to help inform regulations and management of species. The government approved the new, higher percentage of trip cover on Tuesday, said Michael Pentony, a regional administrator with the National Marine Fisheries Service.
The rules apply to valuable species that are harvested in the Northeast such as cod, haddock and flounder. Pentony said the new rules will replace the old process of calculating a target for the level of monitoring coverage every year.
The coverage target will instead be 100% for four years as long as federal funding can support agency and industry costs, he wrote in a letter to fishery managers.
At-sea monitoring is a controversial subject in commercial fisheries because many fishermen see it as an added cost that complicates fishing trips. The practice is depicted in the 2021 movie “Coda.”
The new rules are arriving at a time when cod, a key groundfish species, is in peril. U.S. fishermen brought more than 100 million pounds (45.4 million kilograms) of cod to the docks per year in the early 1980s, but the 2020 catch was less than 2 million pounds (900,000 kilograms). Overfishing and environmental change have led to tighter regulation of cod fishing.
The new rules revise the monitoring program “to improve the accounting and accuracy of collected catch data,” Pentony wrote.
The rules also state that in a given year the at-sea monitoring coverage target could be less than 100%, and instead set at the maximum level for which there are sufficient federal funds to cover costs to the agency and industry, Pentony said. The rules also allow some electronic monitoring technologies as an alternative to human workers, he said.
While many fishermen have bristled at the move toward more monitoring, environmental groups have cheered the changes.
“This is a great day for New England’s historic groundfish fishery, including the chronically overfished Atlantic cod,” said Gib Brogan, a campaign director with Oceana.

Glasgow indie institution Belle and Sebastian are gearing up to release their first full-length album in seven years, A Bit of Previous, out May 6 on Matador. Last month, they shared two singles from the record, “Unnecessary Drama” and “If They’re Shooting At You,” and now, they’ve shared a third single, “Young and Stupid.” The song arrives with a lyric video that doubles as a slideshow of a collective family photo album, featuring a selection of the band members’ childhood pictures compiled by Fiona Morrison and edited together by Sabrina Nichols.
As the title and that video premise suggest, the track reminisces on the band’s early days, looking back as they prepare to enter their third decade together. “There’s an easy start to things / There’s the thrill that beauty brings / Glued together at the hips / Stuck together at the lips,” frontman Stuart Murdoch muses about his youth over bouncy acoustic guitars and a resonant string line before the song unfolds into an airy bridge of voices that recall a children’s choir. The track feels like the band’s “In My Life,” serving as a fond look back at successes and regrets before they all move forward for good.
“We did it together, us and the city,” Murdoch said of the recording process for A Bit of Previous in a statement. “This record was the first ‘full’ LP recording for B&S in Glasgow since Fold Your Hands Child, 1999. We clocked in every morning, we played our songs, we wrote together, we tried new things, we took the proverbial lump of clay, and we threw it every day.”
Once the album comes out, Belle and Sebastian are heading out on tour this spring and summer, starting with a string of American dates that begin on May 24 in Asheville, North Carolina, and wrap up in Boston on June 18. After some further summer festival dates in Spain and the U.K., the band will kick off a full U.K. tour in the fall, beginning in Cardiff on Nov. 13. They’ve also just announced a European tour planned for January 2023.
Check out the lyric video for “Young and Stupid” below, and keep scrolling to see the list of Belle and Sebastian’s new European tour dates. You can pre-order A Bit of Previous here.

A man suspected of killing Ranjith Kankanamalage has pleaded not guilty to the crime in an appearance at the Old Bailey.
Erik Feld, 36, of Tredegar Road, Tower Hamlets, spoke via video-link on 12 April.
He has been remanded in custody and his trial is set to begin on 6 March 2023, the BBC reported.
There will also be a case management hearing on 15 July 2022.
Kankanamalage’s body was found dead in Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park, East London, in the early hours of 16 August.
The 50-year-old, who was known as Roy by friends, was declared deceased at the scene by members of the London Ambulance Service who arrived at around 6.30am.
He was found to have a head injury and a post-mortem examination later ruled that the cause of death was blunt force trauma to the head, believed to be from a hammer.
In a statement released by police, it was confirmed that the “incident is being treated as a homophobic hate crime”.
They urged the LGBTQ+ community in the area to report anything suspicious to police immediately, especially at night.

India’s retail inflation or the Consumer Price Index (CPI) has soared to a 17-month high of 6.95 percent in March owing to rising prices of essential food items like 'oils and fats', vegetables and protein-rich items such as 'meat and fish'. Staying above the 6 percent mark for the third consecutive month, the CPI has topped the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) upper retail limit of 4 percent with a 2 percent margin on either side. On a quarterly basis, the retail inflation during January-March works out to be 6.34 percent.
Last week, the RBI had raised the retail inflation projection for the current fiscal to 5.7 percent from an earlier forecast of 4.5 percent. While the central bank hopes for moderation in prices of cereals and pulses on a likely record harvest of the winter season (rabi) crop, the excessive volatility in global crude oil prices since late February amid geopolitical tensions remains major risks to "any projection of growth and inflation".
CNBC-TV18 spoke to several economists, top bankers and market analysts on India's inflation situation and here's what they said:
Dinesh Kumar Khara, Chairman, SBI: “Inflation is also a function of multiple factors, which are observed at a point of time. It is something which was most expected considering the fact that the way the global factors were operating, so it was more or less in line. I hope that with the global factors, getting addressed more in terms of the Russia-Ukraine war, I think, perhaps, it could have an impact on the overall inflation going forward. But nevertheless, what you mentioned in terms of the negative interest rate for the depositors, sometime, last quarter itself, we had started increasing our term deposit interest rates.”
Arvind Sanger, Managing Partner, Geosphere Capital Management: “Inflation is going to be a persistent problem globally, and India is no exception. And, frankly, RBI has been one of the most dovish, amongst the major central banks in the world, in terms of not moving. And now that the WPI has already been giving us warning signals here, it was running in the mid to low teens; 13-15 percent in the last several months and now CPI is starting to accelerate.”
Nilesh Shah, MD, Kotak AMC: "What debt market will be looking forward to is the trajectory of inflation, does it remain elevated above RBI’s target level of 6 percent or does it start coming down as expected by the RBI, which is guided towards 5.7 percent inflation for FY23.”
Sonal Varma, MD & Chief Economist-India, Nomura Financial Advisory & Securities: “Inflation was already tracking above 6 percent For FY23 prior to the upper surprise we have seen in March. There are a bunch of supply-side adjustments that are pending, demand-side pressures that are building up and second-order effects that will play out. We were expecting on average CPI inflation at 6.2 percent in FY23, given the upside surprise in the March reading we have revised up our FY23 average estimate to about 6.6 percent.”
Ananth Narayan, Professor, SPJIMR: “It does look like we are going to have repeated 6 percent plus, I agree with 6.6 percent as well as a distinct possibility. In fact, the April print, by the way, might be higher than 7 percent given the oil price adjustment as well so watch out for all of that. Granted that we should be controlling inflation, that is the primary mandate of the MPC. Granted that remains the biggest important decision to be made but the problem with the monetary policy framework is it has become dangerously simplistic. The framework gives the impression you can keep CPI within a range merely by changing the repo rate. Macroeconomics is far more complicated than that, as the last two decades have shown and this is dangerously simplistic.”
Rajnish Kumar, Former Chairman, SBI: “Repo rate, RBI has been holding but this time the stance has been different, it has been changed and if you look at the 10-year G-Sec, if you take representative 10-year G-Sec is representative and not the repo rate, then we have seen almost 125 basis point increase in last 15 months. So, that is a pointer itself that yes, there is an inflation building up and today, when you talk to anybody, this is one of the hottest topics about inflation. It is not only for the consumer, but for all the industry and we are seeing upward pressure on the prices, but again, not so much as to demand-driven, but the supply side driven.”

Scam Twitch streams pretending to be Elon Musk are taking over the website’s Just Chatting category, advertising bitcoin giveaways using clips featuring the Tesla founder’s previous comments about the popular cryptocurrency.
As various cryptocurrency continues to gain popularity, ill-intended users of the blockchain advertise false giveaways of the most popular token. Sometimes, these users can gain access to the winner’s wallet to drain any valuable assets.
In November 2020, Bitcoin ‘giveaway’ streams began rapidly popping up on Twitch, using old Elon Musk clips and botted viewers to move to the top of the Just Chatting category.
The platform quickly banned the streams, but they would almost instantly show back up with another account. Now, those fake Twitch streams are back — amassing over 10 thousand viewers before quickly getting banned.

Scam Elon Musk bitcoin giveaways take over Twitch
Thanks to the account using thousands of botted viewers to move to the top of the category, these accounts quickly caught the attention of real viewers who wanted to see what was going on.
On April 13, Twitch acted quickly after reports of the botted accounts came to light by banning them. However, new accounts were created and quickly moved to the top of the “Just Chatting” directory.
The channel names were simply ‘elon_musk’ with a series of random numbers attached to the end. Luckily, it appears that the botted accounts have disappeared — at least for now.
It’s important to note that at the time of writing, Elon Musk does not have a Twitch account of his own. If he were to create one, it would likely adorn the platforms coveted partner checkmark beside his name.

As a prolific name in the cryptocurrency scene and one of the richest men in the world, this is not the first time the Tesla founder’s likeness has been used with fake giveaways.
In July 2020, Musk, MrBeast, and other high-profile names’ Twitter accounts were hacked, and the hackers used their accounts to run fake crypto giveaways.
