Màre Mediterranean, Birmingham, Michigan
At Màre Mediterranean, patrons visit the in-restaurant fish "market" to select their meal with the assistance and knowledge of their servers. Fresh fish is flown in from the Mediterranean on a bed of dry ice three times each week, fulfilling co-owner Nino Cutraro's goal of replicating the fish markets of his native Sicily. Choose to have your fish grilled, under salt, panfried or baked, and complete the meal with raw bar selections and over a dozen specialty cocktails.
Loti Pencil, Lake of the Isles, Minnesota
A giant, 16-foot-tall pencil recently appeared near Lake of the Isles in Minneapolis. The brainchild of property owner John Higgins, the sculpture gives new life to a 180-year-old bur oak that was damaged during a violent storm five years ago. Sheared of its canopy, the tree's trunk remained intact and provided a unique canvas for local artist Curtis Ingvoldstad, who carved it on-site using a chain saw and other tools. Well on its way to cult status, the Loti Pencil will be sharpened by humorist and cultural critic David Rees, "the number one No. 2 pencil sharpener in the world," according to his award-winning short film on that topic.
Chicken Scratch and Burgeezy, Indianapolis
Two Black women chefs are tantalizing taste buds at new restaurants in Indy. At Chicken Scratch, Tia Harrison rewrites the script on wings and chicken tenders. "Fresh food, not fast food," she says. "All from scratch, made with love." Try hand-breaded wings tossed in sauces like Honey Hot, Mango Habanero and Cajun Ranch, and pair with fries for a loaded combo. For a different type of craving, Kadeesha Wiggins and her husband run a 100 percent vegan spot inside the Amp at 16 Tech food hall. Burgeezy specializes in "burgers" but also offers a gigantic, in-demand Crispy Chick'n (vegan!) sandwich that requires a two-handed hold.

Tattersall Distilling, River Falls, Wisconsin
Minneapolis micro-distillery Tattersall Distilling has gone macro with the opening of a new 75,000-square-foot distillery in River Falls, Wisconsin. The expansion allows for increased production of favorites like Orange Crema and Aquavit, along with space for a full-service restaurant. Despite its Goliath size, the distillery leaves a David-size footprint with a rooftop solar array and first-of-its-kind water reclamation system. All ingredients used in the libations are sourced from local farmers and trusted sustainable partners.

Hot weather and dry conditions are the usual suspects in any wildfire season, but a complex interplay of topography and unpredictable winds can create particularly challenging adversaries for firefighters, experts say.
In British Columbia, shifting wind patterns have been a key concern for crews battling a fire in the south Okanagan that has forced the evacuation of hundreds of homes.
Mary-Ann Jenkins, professor emeritus of atmospheric science at York University in Toronto, said fire generally moves in the same direction the wind is blowing.
But mountains can complicate matters, she said.
The Rockies, for instance, influence a range of factors, including humidity and localized wind directions.
“Because of the Rockies, wind can be channelled through valleys. It changes _ the wind over ridges in the mountains and also sometimes you have very severe downslope winds,” she said.
“And another thing that people don’t know is that winds going up a hill tend to accelerate. As they go uphill, they get stronger and stronger before they reach the top.”
Jenkins said the Rockies create a unique phenomenon called Chinook winds, which are extremely drying, can be experienced all year around and can add to firefighting woes.
“The weather conditions at the local level in a mountainous region are difficult to forecast. Because there are so many things that can happen due to topography.”
Such unpredictability has been felt acutely around Keremeos, in British Columbia’s south Okanagan. The area’s Indigenous name is “valley of the three winds,” said Tim Roberts, the elected regional director.
On Monday, BC Wildfire Service information officer Bryan Zandberg said winds around the Keremeos Creek fire were light, at about 15 kilometres per hour, which allowed firefighters to make good progress building containment lines.
But the winds still had the potential to push flames south toward the villages of Keremeos and Olalla, as happened last week, he said.
“We’re making really good gains,” he said, but added “if the wind picks up, you know, the wind could take it where it wants to.”
More than 500 homes in the area have been ordered evacuated since the wildfire was reported on July 29.
It’s not just the western side of the country where unpredictable winds can be a factor. In Newfoundland, where a state of emergency was called over the weekend in response to a major fire, changing wind patterns have been making the situation difficult to handle.
The blaze that began in an area called Paradise Lake was within 25 kilometres of the town of Grand Falls-Windsor, and crews were working Monday afternoon to build a fire break to keep the flames from creeping closer to the town, said Jeff Motty, the province’s forest fire duty officer.
In the Northwest Territories, meanwhile, authorities are guarding against a flare-up of a fire on the west side of Marian Lake that had previously been dormant underground.
The Department of Environment and Natural Resources said heavy winds from the south were expected to cause extreme fire behaviour and significant growth of the so-called “zombie fire,” which has grown to about 65 square kilometres.
Prof. Mike Flannigan from Thompson Rivers University said the ingredients for a wildfire include fuel such as grasses and other vegetation, hot and dry weather and winds.
Sometimes it doesn’t even have to be hot, but it has to be dry and windy to fan a fire, said the British Columbia Research Chair in predictive services, emergency management and fire science.
“Once you have a fire started, wind is also really important in how that spreads,” he said in an interview. “It spreads in the direction that the wind is going. So a west wind means the fire is moving from west to east, and it’s most intense in the direction of the wind. It’s like being pushed along by that wind.”
Usually when temperatures drop at night, humidity goes down and winds calm too, he said.
But lately, he said researchers have found nights are staying warm, winds aren’t “possibly” calming as much as they used to, making it challenging for firefighters.
Jenkins said fires also tend to make their own winds because they can create a large convective storm.
A fire can produce a vortex of swirling air along a fire line, she said. Pressure is sucked out of these whirls, which can move erratically, and aren’t easy to observe or predict, she said.
“Sometimes they’re fairly benign, but sometimes they’re not,” Jenkins said. “It spreads fire in a very erratic way and it can take out houses that you didn’t expect, or overwhelm firefighters.”
Flannigan said that fires create hot air that rises, and a void that is filled with a stream of cold air.
“The more quickly it does that, the stronger the winds are,” he said. “Wind is just the movement of air. Fires create their own wind field and the bigger the fire, the more intense the fire, the stronger the wind.”
Even at the scale of a small bonfire, Jenkins said fires create their own winds.
“So, larger fires do very, very interesting things with a degree of magnitude and are fairly more dangerous. That’s a natural aspect of combustion, fuel burning, a wildfire burning.” | https://globalnews.ca/news/9046754/canada-wildfire-season-complications/ | 2022-08-09T13:36:02Z | https://globalnews.ca/news/9046754/canada-wildfire-season-complications/ | false | 21 |
Monkeypox was first discovered at the end of the 1950s, but since then there are signs it has undergone recent changes that have enabled it to pass between humans more easily.
Since May 2022 there have a spate of outbreaks reported in the US, UK, Australia, mainland Europe and Canada.
Health officials say that people should avoid close personal contact with someone who has an illness presenting with a distinctive rash.
This monkeypox rash is known to first appear on the face has been described to resemble pimples with other face symptoms to be aware of.
Monkeypox first symptoms
According to recent NHS updates, the UK has had 2,432 cases, up 224 since July 21.
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is encouraging anyone who develops "a new, unexplained skin rash" on any part of the body to seek medical care immediately and avoid contact with others.
Monkeypox symptoms are similar to those of smallpox, including fever, headaches, muscle aches, chills exhaustion and a rash similar to pimples.
“The rash typically started on the face and spread to many areas of the body,” says the American Academy of Dermatology Association
The health site continued: “People usually had between 10 and 150 pox-like bumps on their skin.
“Some people developed more than 200 bumps.”
According to Rosamund Lewis, World Health Organisation’s (WHO) head smallpox secretariat, a rash appearing starts as red discolouration in the skin.
It usually starts on the face and then progresses to the arms and legs, then hands and feet, and then the rest of the body.
This phase also lasts one to two days.
Next comes what are referred to as papules, when the rash becomes raised on the skin, instead of flat, also lasting one to two days.
One study published in BMJ looked at 197 participants, all of whom had tested positive for monkeypox.
All participants had lesions on the skin or mucus membranes as their only symptom.
These lesions were found to be located to the genital and anal areas as well as in and around the mouth and throat.
These rashes around the anus and genitals had not always spread to other parts of the body, and often appeared before symptoms like fever, noted the researchers.
The NHS added: “You should contact your sexual health clinic if you have a rash with blisters, anal pain or bleeding from your bottom and have either:
- Been in close contact, including sexual contact, with someone who has or might have monkeypox (even if they've not been tested yet) in the past three weeks.
- Had one or more new sexual partners in the past three weeks.
- Been to west or central Africa in the past three weeks.
The national health body added: “Stay at home and avoid close contact with other people, including sharing towels or bedding, until you've been told what to do.”

President Joe Biden is scheduled to sign the CHIPs Act into law on Tuesday, providing $280 billion in funding to attract more chip manufacturers to the US.
The bill includes incentives and grants for producers of microchips.
The Congressional Budget Office projected the bill would add $80 billion to the federal deficit.
The bill passed by a 64-33 margin, with Sen. Bernie Sanders joining 32 Republicans in opposition to the bill. The bill then went to the House, where the entire Democratic majority and 24 Republicans approved the bill.
“As Americans are worried about the state of the economy and the cost of living, the CHIPS bill is one answer: it will accelerate the manufacturing of semiconductors in America, lowering prices on everything from cars to dishwashers,” Biden said. “It also will create jobs – good-paying jobs right here in the United States. It will mean more resilient American supply chains, so we are never so reliant on foreign countries for the critical technologies that we need for American consumers and national security.”
The CHIPs Act was among several recent legislative victories for Biden.
On Sunday, senators passed the Inflation Reduction Act. Democratic senators estimate that the legislation would reduce the federal deficit by $369 billion over the next 10 years by closing taxing loopholes, bolstering IRS enforcement and executing a minimum 15% corporate tax.
In return, the legislation would supply $369 billion in spending to address climate change and an additional $64 billion to grow the Affordable Care Act. | https://www.10news.com/news/national/president-biden-to-sign-chips-act-says-bill-will-bolster-supply-chain | 2022-08-09T13:47:10Z | https://www.10news.com/news/national/president-biden-to-sign-chips-act-says-bill-will-bolster-supply-chain | false | 12 |

ROSEVILLE, Calif., Aug. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Banning books and intellectual freedom is not new. The resurgence in book bans is new. The American Library Association, (ALA) tracks these efforts. In 2021, the ALA recorded 729 books being challenged which targeted 1,597 titles. ALA reports this is double the number of challenged books in 2020. These censorship tactics are aimed at suppressing public school and library access to books about racism, sexuality, and gender identity. The increase in censorship around the country inspired the Placer Action Network, (PAN) to fight book bans by encouraging readers to buy banned books.
"It is ironic and sad that a country which espouses liberty and justice for all would tolerate censorship and attempts to hide historical facts from students. We decided to turn our outrage into a message of support for both intellectual freedoms, and the support of candidates who respect those freedoms," said Ellen Debach-Reilly, 2022 PAN President.
The efforts to ban books are specifically targeted to books and resources about the lives of those who identify as gay, queer, or transgender, or stories of Black, Indigenous or people of color.
The PAN book bags are ready in time for Banned Books Week, September 18-24, the annual celebration of the freedom to read. The week is sponsored by book publishers, library organizations, journalists, and the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress.
PAN Past President and former educator, Barbara Smith helped to create the book bags. "I consider the book bans a concerted effort to dumb-down our future generations. Imagine the educational harm being caused because a comprehensive education has been hijacked by political attempts to hide facts. It is outrageous," said Smith.
To take a stand against the book bans, PAN banned book bags are available online at: https://forms.gle/G7tpqudVkodeFBiE7 and proceeds will be donated to efforts toward preserving democracy and democratic principles.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- In a new research paper, DoubleLine Global Bond Portfolio Manager Bill Campbell concludes Russia's financial resilience in the face of Western sanctions has demonstrated the China-Russia axis as a viable political and economic rival to the West.
"In light of Russian resilience, including the strength of Russia's currency and current account surplus," Mr. Campbell writes, "the China-Russia axis has gained credibility as an exemplar to other sovereign governments seeking alternatives to a world order once dominated by the G-7 countries.
"Western sanctions against Russia have not only failed to work as intended, they also have accelerated trends in global trade and finance to the disadvantage of the West. Investors should keep these developments on their radar, as resulting opportunities in emerging markets and infrastructure projects are likely to become more apparent in the quarters and years ahead."

Backstop Solutions survey highlights how unpredictable days and non-core tasks are impacting BD and IR professionals already strapped for time
CHICAGO, Aug. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- For business development (BD) and investor relations (IR) professionals at alternative asset management firms, one-quarter of their work week is spent on unplanned interactions with their limited partners (LPs), according to a new study from Backstop Solutions, the industry's leading cloud-based productivity suite for institutional and alternative investors.
Backstop Solutions' 2022 Alternative Investment Manager Productivity Survey of Investor Relations and Business Development Professionals found that:
- Unplanned LP interactions consume a significant portion of a BD/IR professional's time. The average respondent spends 35 hours each week interacting with LPs, with more than one-third of that time being unplanned (13 hours). In other words, one quarter of respondents' work weeks is likely to be taken up with impromptu and unanticipated meetings with investors.
- BD and IR professionals are strapped for time. When asked how many hours they think they work on average, the result was 52. But when asked to add up the individual tasks that occupy their weeks, the total came out to 58. Hence, they may be working more than they think they are.
- BD/IR professionals are doing double duty. 62% of BD/IR professionals surveyed participate in both capital raising and retention. While necessary for building and maintaining relationships, it increases the reliance on software to maintain efficiency.
- Technology is a key driver of effectiveness and retention, as it automates manual tasks and allows professionals to spend time on the most valuable activities. BD/IR professionals at alternative asset managers are clear that they could be working more efficiently overall and using technology more effectively. Only 55% of BD/IR professionals are satisfied or very satisfied with their technology solutions while nearly 80% think "there must be a better way of doing this" on a daily basis.
- 58% BD/IR professionals believe capital raising is more challenging in the current economic environment. Spending time on strategic responsibilities is more important than ever for BD/IR professionals, given the current market conditions.
"With economic uncertainty looming, those who are raising and retaining capital have to be more cognizant than ever of how they are servicing their clients," said Maryling Yu, chief marketing officer of Backstop Solutions. "As many BD and IR professionals wear two hats and spend so much time on unplanned interactions with LPs, focusing on differentiating themselves during these unplanned interactions by answering their questions insightfully and in-the-moment will help solidify their relationships with allocators."
Commissioned by Backstop, the study surveyed 103 BD/IR professionals from alternative asset management firms conducted from May 29 to June 29, 2022, with respondents coming from key segments such as private equity, hedge funds, venture capital, real estate, multi-strategy, private debt, and infrastructure/real assets managers.

Backstop's mission is to help professionals in the institutional investment industry use time to its fullest potential. We develop technology to simplify and streamline otherwise time-consuming tasks and processes, enabling our clients to quickly and easily access, share, and manage the knowledge that is critical to their day-to-day business success. Backstop provides its industry-leading cloud-based productivity suite to investment consultants, pensions, funds of funds, family offices, endowments, foundations, private equity, hedge funds, and real estate investment firms.

With only 44 eligible players to be voted in on this year’s to 25, it’s surprising that 10 of them received no votes at all. As voters, we’re sure who is in range of the lower ranks of the list, but as we’ll learn soon, we don’t at all agree on the exact order of the bottom 15 or so names.
Usually the unranked are older, Russian prospects on indefinite rights who have revealed themselves to be who they are. Like Vladimir Bobylyov, who aged out, they’re VHL players almost exclusively. The rest are generally late round picks who were big long shots on draft day and who haven’t captured the imagination. Given that, it’s a bit surprising that there’s two younger goalies who got no votes. It’s a testimony to the way goalie prospects start piling up once management changed and they began to draft one every year.
The older Russians are:
Vladislav Kara: Likely the best of the group, he’s played 102 KHL games at age 24. He will age off the list next year as a VHL/KHL tweener.
Semyon Kizimov: Possibly a match for Kara, Kizimov is only 22, and has a lot of pro hockey to his name. He’s been slotted firmly into a VHL role at the moment, and has had success there.
Nikolai Chebykin: The oldest player on the eligibility list this year, he’s a KHL/VHL tweener, albeit in a non-scoring depth role. He had his fans back in the day based on some gaudy MHL points results in his post-draft season, but he would have needed to be in the KHL at that age to be really exciting.
Some older players we’ve lost faith in show up every year:
Kalle Loponen: The “other” Finnish defender drafted along with Mikko Kokkonen has not made the jump to pro hockey fast enough or effective enough to catch our attention. He’s only 21, but he can’t crack the team Topi Niemelä dominates from, and is likely going to play out his pro career in the Liiga.
Mac Hollowell: The Maple Leafs have made a fuss over Hollowell (formerly of the Soo Greyhounds) every year, and yet Leafs fans aren’t buying in. Very, very similar to former Marlies teammate Joey Duszak, Hollowell, at 23, is not an undisputed top pairing stalwart in the AHL. So that means the NHL is likely out of his reach. Injury- and Covid-shortened seasons haven’t helped his development either.
Ryan O’Connell: At 23, and still in the NCAA, O’Connell hasn’t done anything to be made memorable. He looks like a direct to ECHL player.
The list is padded out this year with more recent late-round drafted players that just can’t rise above the seas of third and fourth round picks that we can pin our hopes on for now:
John Fusco: At 21, Fusco has had time to play only 26 games in the NCAA, but that’s also why he’s unranked. Years of unremarkable play in the USHL and a freshman Harvard season with few games played kept him from getting any votes.
Artur Akhtyamov: The older of two goalies drafted out of the Ak Bars Kazan club in Russia, Akhtyamov is set up to be the VHL starter this season as he turns 21. The mostly likely player on today’s list to prove us wrong, he’d need to be gunning for the top KHL chair to be a lock as a good North American goalie someday.
Vyacheslav Peksa: About to have his 20th birthday, the junior partner in this goalie duo is still MHL-eligible. He’s the second most likely name here to shame us in the future.
The last unranked player is an undrafted free agent who still plays in junior hockey. Without the draft buzz around his name, I’m not surprised no one ranked him:
Braeden Kressler: At 19, Kressler is coming off an injury-shortened season followed up by a very hot playoff run. If he gets a lot of points in the season he turns 20 in the OHL, we might be tempted to overrate him next year. For now, he’s a longshot.
And that’s the sad list of the unranked for another year. Tomorrow we meet the honourable mentions. | https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/toronto-maple-leafs-top-25-prospects-under-25/2022/8/9/23296520/2022-t25u25-the-unranked | 2022-08-09T13:55:50Z | https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/toronto-maple-leafs-top-25-prospects-under-25/2022/8/9/23296520/2022-t25u25-the-unranked | false | 1 |

There are events taking place called “A Grand Day Out” It is Wakefield’s summer festival on tour!
Every weekend through the month of August the tour visit’s 0various locations around the district.
You can expect FREE family fun including giant inflatables, live music and workshops to get involved with.
Most Popular
Check it out on www.experiencewakefield.co.uk
It all kicked off in Wakefield but there are tons of things going on all over the district. I was in Wakefield on Saturday and boy oh boy was it busy.
The precinct outside the cathedral was packed, there was a beach there to enjoy plus so many other things.
I was hosting baking workshops in the Ridings, and it was a buzzing atmosphere inside too.
You might wonder how we could bake in an environment without a single oven?
Well after careful consideration on my part I thought making bread would work well.
As most bread needs time to prove I decided that the participants could prepare the dough with me and then take the dough home and bake it there.
I chose focaccia as the recipe in question. I held three sessions with six children and an adult to help at each session. It was so much fun for all the kids.
All the children had success and took home a fine-looking foil tray of foccacia to enjoy at home. It was an interesting process too as we were trying for a science-based workshop, and we enabled this by watching the yeast activate in a jug with warm water and a bit of sugar.
We saw the dough double in size as it proved, also the yeast continuing its work in the warmth of the plastic bag plus we could see that oil and water, or vinegar in this case do not mix.
A fabulous time was had by us all. There are more workshops planned for the first Saturday and Sunday in September, think dinosaurs! | https://www.liverpoolworld.uk/whats-on/arts-and-entertainment/wakefield-festival-baking-and-plenty-of-sun-3798831 | 2022-08-09T13:59:21Z | https://www.liverpoolworld.uk/whats-on/arts-and-entertainment/wakefield-festival-baking-and-plenty-of-sun-3798831 | false | 25 |
New capabilities to Verta's MLOps platform address ML engineering and deployment challenges, improving ML model production by 30x
PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Verta, a leading provider of Artificial Intelligence (AI) model management and operations solutions, today announced continued momentum with enhanced enterprise-focused capabilities added to its MLOps platform. The new updates include additions to Verta's native integration ecosystem and subsequent capabilities around enterprise security, privacy and access controls, model risk management, and the pursuit of responsible AI. These updates can improve ML model production time by 30x, a feat that furthers Verta's commitment to solving challenges organizations face with running intelligent products in production in efficient and safer ways at scale.
"The focus of ModelOps is steadily evolving from model experimentation to operational AI where business value is ultimately realized," said Manasi Vartak, CEO and Founder of Verta. "The consequences and technology ecosystem of AI operating in a production setting are far different from when and where the models are built. We continue to innovate and deliver on our roadmap to provide organizations with a platform to maintain operational excellence and perform to their service-level agreements (SLA), system reliability and high availability requirements, model performance expectations, and governance policies and procedures."
Automating the delivery, monitoring, governance and scalability of AI has become increasingly important to business success. Verta's model monitoring capabilities help data science teams ensure their models remain accurate and that their intelligent products keep providing value to customers. By monitoring model performance, data drift and service levels across deployment environments, Verta ensures model-based applications continue to perform at their best.
"With Verta, we were able to quickly deploy a model registry that seamlessly integrated with our identity systems and access control requirements, providing the trusted model supply chain Scribd needs to succeed," said R. Tyler Croy, Director of Platform Engineering at Scribd. "Not only does this positively impact the customer experience by improving the time needed to get models into production, but it also helps attract and retain top talent by removing obstacles between them and their projects shipping to users."
Verta was recently recognized as a Cool Vendor in the 2022 Gartner® Cool Vendors™ in AI Core Technologies— Scaling AI in the Enterprise report.1 The report states, "Automating delivery, monitoring, governance and scaling up of AI models is becoming a priority for end-user clients."
The Gartner report also provides recommendations for data and analytics leaders tasked with AI implementation, including that they should:
- Accelerate the time to value from AI initiatives by exploring and leveraging new solutions offered by startup vendors based on your use cases and industry needs.
- Explore the breadth of solutions that address your priorities such as faster model development, ModelOps, data quality, AI explainability and security.
- Compose AI projects by choosing solutions that allow you to measure ROI, be agile, reduce risk and ensure higher model performance.
Verta strives to seamlessly integrate with the tools and products enterprises already use in their IT infrastructure and ML workflows. Along with an extensible platform and open APIs, Verta has built several native integrations for secure and faster onboarding and roll-out in enterprises. New additions to the Verta native integration ecosystem include:
- Active Directory & OAuth2 support: Verta now supports seamless integration with LDAP-based systems like Active Directory. Additionally, for 3rd party Identity Providers like Okta used at enterprises, Verta supports OAuth2-based workflows with OpenID and SAML. This enables Single Sign On (SSO) and automates user management and provisioning with the enterprise identity provider of choice. Verta's authentication integration eliminates the need for a shadow IT infrastructure and reduces the burden on IT when provisioning and deprovisioning users, as everything can happen from a centralized system. In addition to being critical for security and compliance reasons, SSO makes it easier for users to access Verta applications and avoid managing multiple passwords.
- Python Package Index (PyPI) Integration: The PyPI Index is the most commonly used central repository for Python packages and dependencies. As an enterprise-grade model management and deployment platform, Verta provides seamless support for both public and private PyPI repositories for models packaged and served in Verta. This enables teams to securely share python packages and dependencies within the organization with fine-grained access control and guarantee uptime and availability.
- Datadog Integration: ML models are typically embedded in products and business applications and tightly integrated with other production APIs and services. Verta is bridging this gap with a new integration with Datadog — enabling users to get deep visibility into the operational health of their ML models with just a few simple steps. The integration allows you to send operational and endpoint metrics from Verta to Datadog, enabling SREs and IT teams to get a unified view of operational health and achieve faster troubleshooting.
- Apache Kafka Integration: Verta provides simplified and scalable model deployment and inference serving for batch, real-time and streaming ML applications. With the latest Apache Kafka integration, users can take any model and deploy it in a scalable infrastructure. With Verta as the serving platform, the models can autonomously use their inputs to push predictions into Kafka streaming cluster –– one of the most popular data stream systems used in ML.
- Vulnerability Scanning: Verta is invested to improve the security of AI models with vulnerability detection. It has standardized vulnerability scanning at multiple points of the ML lifecycle to help models get to production faster and stay secure when they're deployed. As part of Verta's implementation process, customer admins can configure the image scanning software their company prefers and Verta runs vulnerability scans automatically to surface issues.
Building and managing AI is a collaborative process involving stakeholders across multiple teams and functions. As the number of people increases, management of security, compliance and collaboration not only becomes essential but also becomes more complex. Verta provides a comprehensive set of roles and permissions to meet the needs of complex security policies while simultaneously enhancing collaboration and productivity for teams and individuals. The platform's user management interface provides administrators with detailed platform audit logs, allowing them to easily establish integrations and apply IT policies and controls in a completely self-served manner.

Spenser Remick, formerly of Salem, is 35 years old, weighs 320 pounds, is 6 feet, 3 inches tall and is well on his way to being a competitor at the World’s Strongest Man contest. Yep.
Spenser grew up on a farm outside of Salem, played football (lineman) for Mount Pleasant High School, and went on to be a three-year starter for Central College in Pella. While at Central, the football team’s record was 37-8, winning the Iowa Conference Title three of his four years. Spenser was an All-Conference lineman for Central his junior and senior year. He also earned the top lineman award twice, as he was able to play all offensive line positions, including center.
After college, Spenser became a graduate assistant in strength and conditioning at William Penn University in Oskaloosa. Spenser knew the strength coach, who was previously from Central. The strength coach was involved in Strong Man competition and encouraged Spenser to give it a shot. Spenser had watched Strong Man on television as a kid. It became a real possibility for him now, since he had the resources and facility in which to train.
Spenser received his Master’s degree in Business, and a few years later married Amber Smith, also a Central College graduate. She was a CrossFit athlete and soon became hooked on body building in the Bikini Division. They now have a four-year old daughter, Rhea. Amber and Spenser live in Pella and both work for the Vermeer Corporation, Amber in marketing and Spenser as a sales manager.
Spenser’s Strong Man journey began in 2011. He earned a third place in a Strong Man contest which was a blessing in disguise. It motivated him to improve. He competed 25 times over three years, always wanting to feel like he was inching closer to being a national, and eventual world level competitor.
In 2015 he competed in a contest that would qualify him as a professional. He won that contest. In 2018 Spenser came in sixth in a World’s Strongest Man qualifier in Indiana, just missing being able to compete in the World’s Strongest Man contest in 2019. But he was getting better. That’s all that matters—improvement.
Then his daughter was born, and a month after that Spenser ruptured the bicep tendon in his left arm. It had to be surgically reattached. In 2020 COVID reared its ugly head, so between new baby, surgery and COVID, competition for Spenser was almost nil.
In 2021 Spenser tied for first in the Official Strongman Games. Since it was a tie, the tie breaker went to whoever finished better in their last event. The guy Spenser tied with finished higher in the last event, so Spenser wound up second. Dang! However, the top three qualified for a Giants Live contest in London. Spenser just returned from that event.
The contest was held in the Royal Albert Hall. There are five events in a four-hour time frame. Whew! The first event was the one-handed dumb-bell press. Spenser pressed 242 pounds, one handed! Then came the Hercules Hold, Farmer’s Carry, Wagon Wheel Axle Deadlift (Spenser did four lifts of 795 pounds). The last event was the Atlas Stone Load. Spenser ended up seventh out of 12 competitors, but had competed against some of the world’s best.
What’s next for Spenser? He’s hoping to compete in an event this year that will qualify him for the World’s Strongest Man contest in 2023 in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. In the meantime he’s continuing to train and work hard. He has a trainer, two sponsors, and his garage in Pella is converted into a workout gymnasium.
You can follow Spenser’s training (and life outside of training) on his Instagram profile @spenserremick and on Facebook. Future World’s Strongest Man? It could happen. | https://www.mississippivalleypublishing.com/daily_democrat/former-salem-boy-strives-to-be-worlds-strongest-man/article_a2c4ed6e-3aae-505a-8665-ca6f56945bbf.html | 2022-08-09T14:01:08Z | https://www.mississippivalleypublishing.com/daily_democrat/former-salem-boy-strives-to-be-worlds-strongest-man/article_a2c4ed6e-3aae-505a-8665-ca6f56945bbf.html | false | 3 |

Serena Williams says she is ‘evolving away from tennis’
NEW YORK (AP) — Serena Williams says she is ready to step away from tennis after winning 23 Grand Slam titles, turning her focus to having another child and her business interests.
“I’m turning 41 this month, and something’s got to give,” Williams wrote in an essay released Tuesday by Vogue magazine.
Williams said she does not like the word retirement and prefers to think of this stage of her life as “evolving away from tennis, toward other things that are important to me.”
Williams is playing this week in Toronto, at a hard-court tournament that leads into the U.S. Open, the year’s last Grand Slam event, which begins in New York on Aug. 29.
The American has won more Grand Slam singles titles in the professional era than any other woman or man. Only one player, Margaret Court, collected more, 24, although she won a portion of hers in the amateur era.

Cedar Board of Directors Declares Special Dividend of $19.52 Per Common Share;
Merger Consideration Will Be $9.48 Per Common Share
MASSAPEQUA, N.Y., Aug. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Cedar Realty Trust (NYSE: CDR) ("Cedar") today announced that Cedar and Wheeler Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (NASDAQ: WHLR) ("Wheeler") have jointly determined that the proceeds to Cedar common shareholders from the sale of Cedar's assets and subsequent merger in a series of related all-cash transactions will total $29.00 per share.
Accordingly, Cedar's Board of Directors today declared a special dividend on shares of Cedar's outstanding common stock of $19.52 per share, payable to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 19, 2022. Payment of the special dividend is contingent upon the closing of Cedar's previously announced cash merger transaction with a subsidiary of Wheeler – the final step of the sale process – which is expected to be consummated on or about August 22, 2022. Assuming the merger transaction is consummated on August 22, 2022, payment of the dividend will be made to eligible shareholders on August 26, 2022. Shareholders as of the merger closing date will also be entitled to receive merger consideration of $9.48 per share, payable on or about the same date as the special dividend.
Important Information About the Special Dividend
Due to the nature of the special dividend, as required by the rules of the NYSE, Cedar's common stock will trade with "due bills", representing an assignment of the right to receive the special dividend, beginning August 18, 2022, one business day prior to the special dividend record date, through the merger closing date (such period of time the "Due-bill Period"). AS A RESULT, HOLDERS OF CEDAR'S COMMON STOCK ON THE SPECIAL DIVIDEND RECORD DATE MUST HOLD CEDAR COMMON STOCK THROUGH THE MERGER CLOSING DATE IN ORDER TO BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE THE SPECIAL DIVIDEND. CEDAR COMMON STOCKHOLDERS WHO SELL THEIR SHARES ON OR BEFORE THE MERGER CLOSING DATE WILL NOT BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE THE SPECIAL DIVIDEND. PURCHASERS OF CEDAR COMMON STOCK DURING THE DUE-BILL PERIOD (EVEN IF THE TRADE WILL SETTLE AFTER THE DUE-BILL PERIOD) WHO HOLD SUCH SHARES ON THE MERGER CLOSING DATE WILL BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE THE SPECIAL DIVIDEND. STOCKHOLDERS THAT SELL CEDAR COMMON STOCK DURING THE DUE-BILL PERIOD (EVEN IF THE TRADE WILL SETTLE AFTER THE DUE-BILL PERIOD) WILL NOT BE ENTITLED TO RECEIVE THE SPECIAL DIVIDEND.
Due bills obligate a seller of shares of stock to deliver the dividend to the buyer. The due-bill obligations are settled customarily between the brokers representing buyers and sellers of the stock. Cedar has no obligation for either the amount of the due bill or the processing of the due bill. Buyers and sellers of Cedar common stock during the Due-bill Period should consult with their broker before trading in Cedar common stock to be sure they understand the effect of the due-bill procedures.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
The information included herein, together with other statements and information publicly disseminated by Cedar, contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Cedar intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and include this statement for purposes of complying with these safe harbor provisions.
Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe Cedar's future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words "may", "will", "should", "estimates", "projects", "anticipates", "believes", "expects", "intends", "future", and words of similar import, or the negative thereof. Factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: (i) the possibility that any or all of the various conditions to the consummation of the merger may not be satisfied or waived; (ii) the ability of the merger parties to obtain required financing in connection with the proposed merger; (iii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement, including in circumstances which would require Cedar to pay a termination fee or other expenses; (iv) the risk that shareholder litigation in connection with the transactions may result in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability; (v) the ability and willingness of Cedar's tenants and other third parties to satisfy their obligations under their respective contractual arrangements with Cedar; (vi) the loss or bankruptcy of Cedar's tenants, particularly in light of the adverse impact to the financial health of many retailers that has occurred and continues to occur as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic; (vii) the ability and willingness of Cedar's tenants to renew their leases with Cedar upon expiration, Cedar's ability to re-lease its properties on the same or better terms in the event of nonrenewal or in the event Cedar exercises its right to replace an existing tenant, and obligations Cedar may incur in connection with the replacement of an existing tenant; (viii) risks related to the market for retail space generally, including reductions in consumer spending, variability in retailer demand for leased space, adverse impact of e-commerce, ongoing consolidation in the retail sector and changes in economic conditions and consumer confidence; (ix) risks endemic to real estate and the real estate industry generally; (x) damage to Cedar's properties from catastrophic weather and other natural events, and the physical effects of climate change; (xi) uninsured losses; (xii) Cedar's ability and willingness to maintain its qualification as a REIT in light of economic, market, legal, tax and other considerations; and (xiv) information technology security breaches. For further discussion of factors that could materially affect the outcome of forward-looking statements, see "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A, of Cedar's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and other documents that Cedar files with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.
Except for ongoing obligations to disclose material information as required by the federal securities laws, Cedar undertakes no obligation to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. All of the above factors are difficult to predict, contain uncertainties that may materially affect Cedar's actual results and may be beyond Cedar's control. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for Cedar's management to predict all such factors or to assess the effects of each factor on Cedar's business. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that Cedar's current expectations will be realized.

In some of the robberies, the perpetrators crawled across the floor of the establishments to avoid the surveillance sensors and set off the alarms. Image: Guardia Civil
Two people have been arrested for allegedly committing at least 23 robberies in businesses in the agricultural sector in several provinces the Guardia Civil confirmed on Tuesday, August 9.
The thieves allegedly stole products and tools worth €250,000 euros, of which the Guardia Civil has recovered a large quantity including two vans and a lorry.
Operation FITOBESAY began at the end of the year 2021 when the Guardia Civil became aware of several robberies made with force in establishments and businesses linked to the agricultural sector in the province of Almería.
In addition to the province of Almeria, the thieves also operated in Granada, Malaga and Alicante, where they committed at least 23 robberies.
These 23 robberies included the alleged theft of greenhouse construction material, phytosanitary products and tools. The perpetrators even stole fuel from the vehicles they used to commit the crimes and for their personal use.
In some of the robberies, the perpetrators crawled across the floor of the establishments to avoid the surveillance sensors and set off the alarms.
During the course of this operation, the Guardia Civil carried out five searches in the municipalities of Roquetas de Mar and El Ejido (Almería), where they arrested the two alleged perpetrators.
The Guardia Civil managed to recover the vehicles used and stolen to commit the crimes, in addition to recovering 450 litres of fuel, 65 tools, some of them valued at over €1,000 and fifty phytosanitary products, most of which were returned to their legitimate owners.
The operation has been carried out by the Judicial Police Unit of the Guardia Civil, Rural Robbery Teams (ROCA), Cinological Service and Citizen Security of the Command of Almeria.
The investigation is still open and further arrests, the recovery of other stolen objects and the clarification of other crimes by this organisation have not been ruled out.

New module leverages data from billions of real-world leaked credentials to expose compromised identity threats to internal and external attack surfaces
BOSTON and TEL AVIV, Israel, Aug. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Pentera, the leader in Automated Security Validation, today announced Credential Exposure, a new module on the Pentera® platform for testing stolen and compromised credentials against the complete enterprise attack surface.
Leaked and stolen credentials pose a critical risk to organizations everywhere. The 2022 Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR) indicates that over 80% of Web Application breaches involve compromised credentials. Every year, billions of credentials appear on the dark web, paste sites, and in data dumps shared by cyber-criminals. These credentials are often used for account takeover attacks, exposing organizations to breaches, ransomware, and data theft.
The Pentera platform combines real-world leaked credential data with its active validation engine to challenge both internal and external attack surfaces. The platform leverages these hashed or clear text credentials in millions of attack vectors, and provides actionable credential exposure mitigation steps such as password reset, or hardening users' MFA policies and limiting privileges at risk in near real-time.
"We see a dramatic increase in identity related threats, specifically in the number of leaked credentials available to attackers. These, alongside credential stuffing techniques allow attackers to gain access to valid accounts, resulting in a breach" said Ran Tamir, Chief Product Officer at Pentera, "By integrating leaked credentials threat intelligence into Pentera, we offer our customers a unique solution of actionable threat intelligence based on credentials that are already available online. This enables continuous validation of account exposure and a remediation plan before the accounts are compromised".
The Pentera Credential Exposure (CE) module will be demoed at Pentera's booth at Black Hat 2022 in Las Vegas, and generally be available starting Oct 2022. To schedule a demo please click here, or drop by our booth (#1774).
About Pentera
Pentera is the category leader for Automated Security Validation, allowing every organization to test with ease the integrity of all cybersecurity layers, unfolding true, current security exposures at any moment, at any scale. Thousands of security professionals and service providers around the world use Pentera to guide remediation and close security gaps before they are exploited. For more info, visit: pentera.io.

Since its inclusion in the first-ever Cloud 100 in 2016, BlackLine has gone public and continues to help companies around the world embrace modern accounting
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- BlackLine, Inc. (NASDAQ: BL) CEO Marc Huffman was invited to serve as a judge for the prestigious 2022 Forbes Cloud 100 list, divulged online today.
Now in its seventh year, the annual Cloud 100 is the "definitive ranking of the top 100 private cloud companies in the world", published by Forbes in partnership with Bessemer Venture Partners and Salesforce Ventures. BlackLine was honored in 2016 with inclusion in the inaugural Forbes Cloud 100. Less than two months later, the accounting automation software leader made its debut on the Nasdaq.
The Cloud 100 evaluation process involved ranking companies across four factors: market leadership (35%), estimated valuation (30%), operating metrics (20%) and people & culture (15%). For market leadership, the Cloud 100 enlists the help of a judging panel comprised of public cloud company CEOs who assist in evaluating and ranking their private company peers. Mr. Huffman joined a distinguished 2022 Cloud 100 judging panel including the CEOs of market leaders Hubspot, Twilio and Zoom.
"The Cloud 100 list has established itself with an impressive track record of cementing the reputations of market-leading cloud companies that have continued to excel and achieve notable success, including several, such as BlackLine, which have gone on to go public," said Mary D'Onofrio, partner at Bessemer Venture Partners. "The Cloud 100 judges' qualifications precede them. We're honored that the leading public cloud company CEOs have once again lent their expertise in identifying the next wave of cloud leaders."
A seasoned SaaS (software-as-a-service) executive with more than 25 years of experience driving growth at successful software companies, Huffman joined BlackLine in early 2018 as chief operating officer. He was named president in February 2020 and CEO as of Jan. 1st, 2021. Prior to BlackLine, Huffman served as president of worldwide sales and distribution at NetSuite. During his 14-year tenure, NetSuite grew from $3 million to $1 billion in annual revenue and became recognized as a global SaaS powerhouse.
Under Huffman's direction, BlackLine was recently recognized by The Software Report as a Top-50 software company worldwide (alongside such powerhouses as Adobe, Dropbox, Microsoft, Slack, Twilio and Zscaler), on track to further penetrate the $28+ billion opportunity in the financial close, accounts receivable and intercompany accounting markets.
The Forbes 2022 Cloud 100 list can be viewed online at www.forbes.com/cloud100. Winners will be celebrated at an in-person gala in San Francisco in October.
Companies come to BlackLine (NASDAQ: BL) because their traditional manual accounting processes are not sustainable. BlackLine's cloud-based financial operations management platform and market-leading customer service help companies move to modern accounting by unifying their data and processes, automating repetitive work, and driving accountability through visibility. BlackLine provides solutions to manage and automate financial close, accounts receivable and intercompany accounting processes, helping large enterprises and midsize companies across all industries do accounting work better, faster and with more control.

NEW YORK (AP) — Serena Williams says she is ready to step away from tennis after winning 23 Grand Slam titles, turning her focus to having another child and her business interests.
“I’m turning 41 this month, and something’s got to give,” Williams wrote in an essay released Tuesday by Vogue magazine.
Williams, one of the greatest and most accomplished athletes in the history of her — or any other — sport, said she does not like the word retirement and prefers to think of this stage of her life as “evolving away from tennis, toward other things that are important to me.”
Williams is playing this week in Toronto, at a hard-court tournament that leads into the U.S. Open, the year’s last Grand Slam event, which begins in New York on Aug. 29.
The American has won more Grand Slam singles titles in the professional era than any other woman or man. Only one player, Margaret Court, collected more, 24, although she won a portion of hers in the amateur era.
“I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want that record. Obviously I do. But day to day, I’m really not thinking about her. If I’m in a Grand Slam final, then yes, I am thinking about that record,” Williams said. “Maybe I thought about it too much, and that didn’t help. The way I see it, I should have had 30-plus Grand Slams.”
But, Williams went on to write, “These days, if I have to choose between building my tennis resume and building my family, I choose the latter.”
She and her husband, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, have a daughter, Olympia, who turns 5 on Sept. 1.
“Believe me, I never wanted to have to choose between tennis and a family. I don’t think it’s fair,” said Williams, who was pregnant when she won the 2017 Australian Open for her last Grand Slam trophy. “If I were a guy, I wouldn’t be writing this because I’d be out there playing and winning while my wife was doing the physical labor of expanding our family.”
Williams was off the tour for about a year after getting injured during her first-round match at Wimbledon in 2021. She returned to singles competition at the All England Club this June and lost in the first round.
After that defeat, Williams was asked whether she would compete again.
“That’s a question I can’t answer,” she said at the time. “I don’t know. … Who knows? Who knows where I’ll pop up?”
Williams hints in the essay that the U.S. Open will be her last tournament but does not say so explicitly.
“I’m not looking for some ceremonial, final on-court moment,” Williams wrote. “I’m terrible at goodbyes, the world’s worst.”

Nearly 50,000 homeowners challenged their council tax last year after £150 energy bill rebates were handed out to homes in Bands A to D only.
More than 13,400 households were moved into a lower tax bracket following a challenge to the Valuation Office Agency in the 2021/22 tax year – a success rate of 29pc.
The number of homeowners challenging their band surged 22pc from 40,850 after the Government announced only those in certain council tax bands would receive the rebate cash.
All UK properties are divided into council tax bands A to H, which are based on property valuations from 1991. Over the years many people whose properties were incorrectly valued at the time have been able to claim back compensation by asking the VOA to review their band.
The VOA said that more people had come forward questioning their band after the announcement of the energy rebate on 3 February 2022. Under the scheme, households in bands A to D in England – the lowest rates – are entitled to a £150 rebate on their council tax bills to help with rising energy costs.
Around 80pc of households are eligible for the handout. But nearly five million families will miss out because they live in homes outside of the qualifying bands. In some cases, these may be low-income families who happen to reside in properties that were highly valued in the 1990s – an inequality which contributed to almost 10,000 more people challenging their band last year.
Although many did secure a discount, in 63pc of cases, people’s tax bands went unchanged. And 50 households ended up paying more tax after being moved into a higher band following a challenge. When one house on a street goes up a band, it can lead to the neighbouring properties paying a higher rate of council tax as well.
To challenge their band, people should contact the VOA. They will need to provide evidence that their property was incorrectly valued in 1991.
They can also argue the valuation is now incorrect because of changes to the property – for instance, if a part of it has been demolished. In these cases taxpayers must make a “proposal” to the local council. If rejected, they can appeal to the Valuation Tribunal requesting a review. | https://www.telegraph.co.uk/tax/news/council-tax-band-challenges-soar-scramble-claim-150-energy-bill/ | 2022-08-09T14:37:05Z | https://www.telegraph.co.uk/tax/news/council-tax-band-challenges-soar-scramble-claim-150-energy-bill/ | false | 1 |

Fans, friends pay tribute to the late Olivia Newton-John
(CNN) – There was a floral tribute for Olivia Newton-John Monday at her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The Australian singer and actress died at her Southern California ranch Monday morning. She was 73 years old.
Over the last 30 years, she was treated for several bouts of cancer – most recently at the base of her spine.
The four-time Grammy winner rose to fame in 1978 after starring opposite John Travolta in the mega-popular movie musical “Grease.”
Travolta paid tribute to his former co-star with a post on Instagram that read:
My dearest Olivia, you made all of our lives so much better. Your impact was incredible. I love you so much. We will see you down the road and we will all be together again. Yours from the first moment I saw you and forever! Your Danny, your John!
Newton-John’s 1981 track “Physical” also went on to spend ten weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100.
She sold more than 100 million albums throughout her lengthy career.

A lung cancer sufferer put cannabis in her food to help ease the pain of her condition. But the 60-year-old woman was caught with the drug and charged.
Heather Kennedy, who has Stage Four lung cancer, admitted possessing the drug with intent to supply it and being concerned in the supply of it to her husband and a son between December 26, 2020 and March 16, 2021. Mold Crown Court heard she hadn't realised that supplying it to members of her family was illegal. A judge gave her a six-month community order.

Prosecutor Alexandra Carrier said police conducted a search of Kennedy's home in Cae Mawr in Llandudno on March 25 last year. The defendant was there with her granddaughter.
Ms Carrier said Kennedy told an officer: "I've got cannabis. I'm not going to lie."
Police found snap bags with "Bob Marley" logos in a bag down the side of a sofa. The search continued and the officers discovered cannabis worth a total of £370, along with £205 in cash and two mobile phones.
Kennedy told police she had Stage 4 lung cancer and had taken cannabis oil, which became too expensive. She took cannabis in her food instead, the court heard. She also supplied it to her husband and a son but did not realise she was committing a crime by doing so to members of her family.
Sarah Yates, defending, said her client is ill and had been "vulnerable to an extent" but regrets her actions. She has lost her good name and this is "possibly a lesson well-learned", she said.
Ms Yates added: "It's safe to say I don't think we will see her back before this court again."
The judge Her Honour Nicola Saffman noted that, when cannabis oil became prohibitively expensive, the defendant put cannabis in her food to ease the pain from her lung cancer. But in being in possession of a Class B drug and in supplying members of her family, she had broken the law.
She said Kennedy had not realised she had committed her offences and had done so out of "sheer naivety". She added: "You are a lady of previous positive good character."
She imposed the community order, fined her a nominal sum of £10 and ordered the destruction of the drugs and forfeiture of the cash, which will go towards North Wales Police's fight against drugs crime.

Who is Coley McCraney?
A closer look at the man accused of killing J.B. Beasley and Tracy Hawlett
DOTHAN, Ala. (WTVY) - The man accused of killing J.B Beasley and Tracy Hawlett was never on the radar of police until his DNA matched their case in March of 2019.
McCraney was 26 years old at the time of the crime. He has lived in the area most of his life. When arrested, he was serving as a bishop at a local church and a truck driver.
A graduate of Carroll High School, McCraney then spent time in the US Navy serving in Biloxi. He would come back to Ozark and was living on Lisenby Drive, about a mile from the crime scene, at the time of the murders.
While in Biloxi, records show he filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
In September 1998, McCraney was sued in a paternity case. As part of the suit he was ordered to submit his DNA by a judge on July 30, 1999, just a day before the killings.
McCraney failed to appear for the test so he was summoned to do so again. He would ignore that request and eventually agree to pay child support instead. Several additional child support petitions over a period of several years were filed claiming he had failed to pay.

2022 NFL Trade Deadline: Top players who could be on different teams originally appeared on NBC Sports Chicago
We’re still waiting for football to return, but it’s never too early to start thinking about the trade deadline.
Set for Nov. 1, the 2022 deadline is still nearly three months away. With roster cuts looming, though, trades could start happening over the next few weeks and carry over into the regular season.
Some players are widely expected to get traded, like Baker Mayfield earlier this summer. Others could shock the league with a trade, like Davante Adams or Tyreek Hill did this spring.
Here are 11 NFL trade candidates before the 2022 deadline:
Jimmy Garoppolo, 49ers
Sports
After Mayfield’s trade, Garoppolo is the most obvious quarterback trade candidate heading into the preseason. Former No. 3 overall pick Trey Lance is going to start for the 49ers this season, even after Garoppolo led San Francisco within one game of the Super Bowl. He isn’t a star, but Garoppolo would be an upgrade at quarterback for a handful of teams.
Jordan Love, Packers
Aaron Rodgers and the Packers were expected to break up soon after Love was drafted in the first round in 2020. That still hasn’t happened, and the two-time reigning MVP just signed an extension to stay in Green Bay likely through 2024. By that point, Love’s rookie deal will be over. If the Packers want to maximize his value, this season could be the time to sell.
Taylor Heinicke, Commanders
Heinicke has started 16 games for Washington over the last two seasons, including a playoff game against the Buccaneers and 15 regular-season games in 2021. But after the Commanders traded for Carson Wentz, he’s been relegated to a backup role. Heinicke is eligible for free agency after this season, so it could be best to trade him and get some value.
Kareem Hunt, Browns
Amidst all the Deshaun Watson news, Hunt quietly requested a trade and the team quickly denied his wish. The 27-year-old running back has one year left on his contract and he wants a new deal. Hunt is one of the best second-string running backs in the league behind Nick Chubb, and he could certainly get more carries in a different situation.
Josh Jacobs, Raiders
New head coach Josh McDaniels made it clear that Jacobs wasn’t on the trade block. But the rumors will persist after Jacobs surprisingly played significant snaps in the Hall of Fame Game, an exhibition typically reserved for … reserves. The Raiders declined to pick up Jacobs' fifth-year option, so he’ll hit free agency after the season.
Jakobi Meyers, Patriots
Wouldn’t this be a classic Bill Belichick move? Meyers, 25, was one of New England’s best receivers in 2021, with 83 receptions and 866 yards. But he’s due to hit unrestricted free agency next year, and the Patriots didn’t offer him a long-term deal as a restricted free agent this spring. That could be a sign that Belichick doesn’t value Meyers as a long-term option.
Jalen Reagor, Eagles
It’s clear that Reagor and the Eagles don’t have a future together. He’ll always be the player picked right before Justin Jefferson, leaving Philly fans to wonder what could’ve been. On the field, he simply hasn’t performed. Reagor’s value is diminishing with every extra second that he’s on the roster, making it crucial that the Eagles deal him as soon as possible.
Teven Jenkins, Bears
Jenkins is only entering his second season after the Bears drafted him in the second round, but this partnership might not be long-lasting. There have been trade rumors and speculation of clashes with the Bears’ new coaching staff already. At this stage, Chicago would obviously prefer if Jenkins figured things out at Halas Hall rather than trading him for a low-end pick.
Roquan Smith, Bears
Smith initially held out of training camp while seeking a new contract, but on Tuesday he officially requested a trade. The fifth-year linebacker claimed that the new front office “doesn’t value” him and refused to negotiate his extension “in good faith.” By the sounds of that, Smith won’t play another snap for the Bears.
Deion Jones, Falcons
Since free agency and the draft, Jones has been on the trade block. The Falcons linebacker reportedly could stay in Atlanta if a trade doesn’t materialize, but a deal is the best scenario for both parties. Jones still has two years left on his contract, which runs through the 2023 season.
Jessie Bates III, Bengals
Bates is the most notable training camp holdout after the Bengals failed to sign him to a long-term deal this summer. Now, Bates must play on the one-year franchise tag tender. He could sit out the season, but that rarely works out for the player. The Bengals should want to keep Bates to anchor its defense after a Super Bowl run, so a trade seems unlikely unless they know they don’t plan to re-sign him. | https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/sports/2022-nfl-trade-deadline-top-players-who-could-be-on-different-teams/2910269/ | 2022-08-09T14:54:18Z | https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/sports/2022-nfl-trade-deadline-top-players-who-could-be-on-different-teams/2910269/ | true | 14 |

Kate with her medal and members of St Gerard's AC. Photo: Arthur Kinahan
Local athlete Kate O'Connor was given a hero's homecoming yesterday (Monday) when she arrived back in Dundalk after winning a silver medal at the Commonweath Games.
The former student of St Vincent's Secondary School in town, who is a member of the Dundalk St Gerard's Athletics Club, represented the Northern Irish team, as she was born in Newry, and came home with an impressive silver medal following a spectacular final day in the gruelling seven sport contest in Birmingham.
Members of her club, St Gerard's AC, were out in force to welcome the medal winner as she arrived back to her Dundalk home in Belfry Gardens yesterday afternoon.
The young athletes holding placards saying “Well Done Kate” and “Welcome home” along with balloons, greeted the heptathlete as she proudly showed off her silver medal.
Her proud parents Michael and Valerie, sister Maeve and grandma Madeline Corcoran beamed as Kate celebrated her amazing achievement.
One of the toughest competitions in Kate's sport, the heptathlon comprises running events, the 100M hurdles, 200M and 800M, the shot putt and javelin from the throwing disciplines alongside the long jump and high jump. Only a true athletics all rounder has any hope of success.
Day one began with the 100M hurdles, where she set a new personal best of 13.74 to finish in fourth position. She followed that up with another PB in the 200M race where her time of 24.73 saw her grab third spot.
Some impressive efforts on the field, which included a shot putt of 13.73M that was not matched by any other athlete, alongside a decent high jump attempt of 1.78M, left her in with a real shout of a medal going into the final day, as she sat in second place.
The 21 year old had a slight setback in the opening event of the day, the long jump, a mid place finish seeing her fall back into the pack. However her best was yet to come.
O'Connor thrilled the crowds in Birmingham with another personal best, this time in the javelin as a superb throw of 51.14M saw her back into the battle for a medal. That throw was almost seven meters better then 2019 World Champion and reigning Commonwealth title holder Katarina Johnson-Thompson.
They were the top two going into the 800M race, the final of the seven disciplines, the current champion holding a narrow 136-point advantage over O'Connor. That meant she needed to finish ahead of Johnson-Thompson to grab the Gold Medal.
The Dundalk based runner was unable to dethrone her more experienced opponent, O'Connor finishing in fourth and Johnson-Thompson grabbing second place. However fourth was enough seal a sliver medal with a final tally of 6233, 21 clear of third place Jade O'Dowda.
The Englishwoman ended the race one place in front of Kate, but with points calculated by your final time and not your finishing place, O'Connor stayed narrowly ahead.
They were split by less than half a second (2:14.00 versus 2:14.48), collecting 907 points versus 900, meaning O'Connor had done enough to land a silver, besting her previous performance at the Games in 2018 where she finished eighth.
“I'm buzzing for myself, I couldn't have asked for anymore” she stated when speaking after the event to Athletics NI.
“One of my big worries was going out and finishing that 800M race and making sure I didn't lose that silver medal, which I didn't thankfully. I've come away with Northern Ireland's second ever athletics medal and I'm just so proud of myself.”
She was due to be in action again today in the javelin event, but has decided to give this a miss to instead prepare for the upcoming European Championships.
O’Connor wasn’t the only local woman partaking in the Games, with World Champion boxer Amy Broadhurst also in action over the weekend.
Boxing in the 63KG category, the St Bronagh’s clubwoman breezed through her semi-final bout against Cynthia Ogunsemilore.
A knockdown in both the second and third rounds saw her coast to a unanimous decision.
She was a clear favourite in Sunday’s final despite needing to overcome English boxer Gemma Richardson on her own patch.
Broadhurst, unlike in earlier bouts, came out of the traps fast in the opener, a series of impressive left hands giving her an early lead.
Her opponent battled back gamely but just hadn’t the class to deal with the reigning World Champion who has now won a second straight major title.

Which beanbag bed is best?
Beanbag furniture is a comfortable and casual alternative to traditional furniture. The quality has improved beyond the flimsy sacks that once decorated dorm rooms. They have also evolved beyond chairs to include beanbag sofas and beds, sometimes called loungers. Beanbag beds are larger, sturdier, last longer and are suitable for kids and adults.
Finding the best bed for you depends on the size you’re looking for and how much space you have, but the best is CordaRoy’s Chenille Convertible Beanbag Bed because it’s an oversized beanbag chair that can easily convert to a bed.
What to know before you buy a beanbag bed
Function
Despite the name, a beanbag bed is not a replacement for a traditional mattress. Consider it more of an oversized beanbag chair or sofa. It can work great for overnight guests or temporary use, but lacks the support needed for an everyday mattress.
What’s excellent about beanbag beds is that they can go almost anywhere in the house. They are good for kids to have in their bedrooms or in a game room or casual lounge where you want extra comfortable seating.
Size and shape
Sizing can vary depending on the manufacturer. Some brands have sizing similar to mattresses, while other beds are more rectangular or circular, so dimensions can vary. Beds range between 4 to 8 feet in length. A good rule of thumb is to purchase a beanbag bed that will support your entire body when lying down.
Beanbag beds also tend to be low to the ground, so when looking at size, consider the height because it varies between 8 and 34 inches, depending on the style and brand.
Weight
Don’t confuse these beds with a beanbag chair for kids that you can toss about the room. These are bigger, so they are also heavier and bulkier. Depending on the dimensions, weight can vary between 40 to 135 pounds, so they aren’t as versatile or easy to move around the room as traditional beanbag chairs.
What to look for in a quality beanbag bed
Material
Most beanbag beds have a removable cover so they can be easily cleaned. The cover material can vary, but the most popular is microsuede, a polyester fabric, and a type of faux leather. This material is ideal because it’s soft, water-resistant and lightweight.
Filling
Inexpensive beanbags are filled with polystyrene beads, which can mold to your body, but wear down over time and don’t last long. Beds with expanded polypropylene are of higher quality and last longer.
Since beanbag beds are much larger than traditional beanbag chairs and designed to hold multiple people and more weight, shredded memory foam is a common fill material because it’s soft, durable and flexible.
Color
Beanbag beds are casual, so there are many colors – some manufacturers have more than 20. Some of the most popular colors are grey, charcoal and black because they are neutral colors that work with most design schemes, but you should be able to find a bed in almost any solid color.
How much you can expect to spend on a beanbag bed
Pricing can vary from $175-$750 depending on materials and filling, but mostly the size of the bed will determine the cost. Smaller beds are substantially less expensive.
Beanbag bed FAQ
Is it safe to sleep on a beanbag bed?
A. It is safe for healthy grown adults to sleep on a beanbag bed, but manufacturers recommend that babies, toddlers, pregnant women and the elderly should not. Since the bed lacks firm structure and can impact stability, there is a very low risk of suffocation, so it’s best to supervise small children.
Are there organic or nontoxic beanbag beds?
A. Although the materials in beanbag products are perfectly safe, some consumers avoid the expanded polystyrene filling. Buckwheat hulls are not as light as other types of filling, such as latex or foam, but they are organic.
Can I make my beanbag bed softer or firmer?
A. It depends on the manufacturer and the type of filling, but you can take out or add filling to most beanbag beds to reach your desired firmness.
What’s the best beanbag bed to buy?

AKRON, Ohio (WJW) — Summit County residents are being warned about a scam that’s been around for years but has once again targeted the community.
Summit County Prosecutor Sherri Bevan Walsh on Tuesday announced the alert after a resident informed the office of a suspicious phone call they received.
“A local resident recently informed our office that they got a phone call saying a warrant had been issued for their arrest because they missed jury duty,” Walsh said. “I want to remind everyone that a warrant is never issued for missing jury duty and you will not be forced to pay a fine with a gift card. This is a scam.”
The jury duty scam works similar to other phone scams where the caller urges you to get rid of the warrant by paying a fine with a gift card. The prosecutor’s office reminds residents that they cannot pay fines or outstanding bills with store gift cards. Scammers are hoping they can catch unsuspecting victims off guard with the threat of an arrest.
“We’ve seen this scam pop up from time to time,” Walsh said. “I always urge people to not answer calls from unfamiliar phone numbers.”
If you do happen to answer a call from an unfamiliar phone number, the prosecutor’s office offers the following tips:
- Do not give out personal confidential information, including your Social Security or credit card
numbers to anyone you suspect of trying to commit fraud against you. - If you should get such a call and wonder if it is true, you can double check the legitimacy of the
call by looking up the court number yourself and placing your own call to the courts. - Be vigilant about any calls asking for personal information. There are many variants of scams,
and the jury-duty call is just one.

OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — Republican Joe Kent, who challenged incumbent Republican Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler over her vote to impeach former President Donald Trump, has taken a narrow lead in the race for the second spot in Washington state’s top two primary.
Under the state’s primary system, all candidates run on the same ballot, and the top two vote getters advance to the November election, regardless of party.
Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez had already advanced to the November ballot since she was the top vote getter after the Aug. 2 primary, with 31% of the vote. Herrera Beutler, who had about 24% on Election Night, dropped to just over 22% by Monday, and was trailing Kent – a former Green Beret endorsed by Trump who surged in late returns and had nearly 23% of the vote— by 960 votes.
A mandatory recount would occur if the margin of votes between the No. 2 and No. 3 candidates is less than half of 1% and closer than 2,000 votes.
An estimated 10,000 votes are left to count in Clark County, the district’s largest, and another update won’t occur until Tuesday afternoon. Several hundred votes remain to be counted in the district’s other counties, but counties have until Aug. 16 to finish their count and for canvassing boards to certify the results, followed by certification by the secretary of state by Aug. 19.
Because Washington is a vote-by-mail state and ballots just need to be in by Election Day, it often takes days to learn final results in close races as ballots arrive at county election offices throughout the week.
Of the 10 House Republicans who voted for Trump’s impeachment, four opted not to run for reelection. Michigan Rep. Peter Meijer was defeated in a primary Tuesday by Trump-endorsed John Gibbs and Rep. Tom Rice of South Carolina lost to a Trump-endorsed challenger in June. Rep. David Valadao of California — which has an open primary like Washington — survived a primary challenge. Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming is bracing for defeat in her Aug. 16 primary against a Trump-backed rival.
Washington Rep. Dan Newhouse advanced to the general election in his Washington state primary last week, fending off a Trump-endorsed rival, and will appear on the November ballot with Democratic opponent Doug White. | https://www.mytwintiers.com/news-cat/political-news/ap-politics/trump-house-pick-overtakes-rep-who-voted-for-impeachment/ | 2022-08-09T15:04:12Z | https://www.mytwintiers.com/news-cat/political-news/ap-politics/trump-house-pick-overtakes-rep-who-voted-for-impeachment/ | false | 43 |
Motorists who forget to pack sunglasses for their journeys could face fines of up to £5,000 as the UK is issued an amber weather warning.
The Met Office has issued a warning for extreme heat for large parts of the UK for the remainder of the week.
Met Office Deputy Chief Meteorologist Dan Rudman said: “Temperatures are expected to peak at 35C on Friday and Saturday, or even an isolated 36C on Saturday. Elsewhere will see temperatures widely into the high 20s and low 30s Celsius.

With this second wave of hot weather in less than a month on the way, drivers are being urged to be mindful of what they wear, especially when it comes down to driving on a sunny day.
Which Highway Codes are relevant to using sunglasses?
Rule 97 of the Highway Code highlights the importance of wearing clothing which does not inhibit your ability to drive
The rule reads: "The clothing and footwear you choose to wear whilst you are driving must not prevent you from using the controls in the correct manner."
A point of the code which is even more specific to driving in sunny weather is rule 237 stating that drivers should slow down or pull over if “dazzled by sunlight”.
This rule reads: “Keep your vehicle well ventilated to avoid drowsiness.
“Be aware that the road surface may become soft or if it rains after a dry spell it may become slippery.
“These conditions could affect your steering and braking. If you are dazzled by bright sunlight, slow down and if necessary, stop.”
For breaking this rule, motorists could face fines of up to £100 as well as three points on their licence.
Those who challenge the fine and lose the appeal could see this rise up to £5,000. This all depends on the severity of the offence.
The AA provides information on their website about driving in sunglasses and advises that the right pair of sunglasses can prevent glare which can be potentially lethal when you’re driving.
They reached out to the Optical Suppliers Association, who confirmed there are two essential two essential requirements in lenses used for driving:
- Vision must remain clear.
- Sufficient light to let you see properly must get to your eyes.
They added: “Sunglasses sold for general use can be too dark for driving in.
“Plus, fashion frames could obscure your peripheral vision if they aren’t the right style, so it’s best to choose your shades carefully.”
One of the better types of sunglasses to drive in is those with Variable tint lenses, according to the AA website.
Generally known as ‘photochromic’ lenses, these change their tint density when exposed to certain kinds of light. Generally the brighter the light, the darker the lenses will turn.
Met Office issues amber weather warning for the UK
The Met Office has issued a statement about the upcoming amber extreme heat warning which reads: “The Extreme heat warning, which covers much of the southern half of England as well as parts of eastern Wales, will be in force from Thursday through until the end of Sunday with impacts possible to health, transport and infrastructure.
The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) and Met Office have issued the health alert and weather warning amid high temperatures expected to hit most of the UK this week. | https://www.glasgowworld.com/read-this/highway-code-drivers-warned-of-ps5000-sunglasses-fine-amid-amber-weather-warning-from-met-office-3799306 | 2022-08-09T15:06:00Z | https://www.glasgowworld.com/read-this/highway-code-drivers-warned-of-ps5000-sunglasses-fine-amid-amber-weather-warning-from-met-office-3799306 | false | 21 |

Aizawl, Aug 9 (PTI) High-level delegations of Mizoram and Assam governments on Tuesday held border talks here and expressed hope to amicably resolve the decades-old boundary dispute between the two North-eastern neighbours.
The delegations signed a joint statement that said both the states agreed to promote and maintain peace and prevent any untoward incident along the border.

Deputy Commissioners of the border districts of both states will meet at least once in two months, the statement said.
A violent clash between the police forces of Assam and Mizoram in July last year claimed the lives of six people, following which the two states formed committees to resolve the border dispute.

Both sides on Tuesday also agreed that economic activities, including cultivation and farming, which have been practised by the people on either side of the border, should be allowed to continue regardless of the administrative control exercised by the states.
The Mizoram delegation was headed by Home Minister Lalchamliana while the Assam team was led by Border Protection and Development Minister Atul Bora.
Speaking to reporters after the talks, Bora said that the chief ministers of both the states are sincere and taking positive roles in settling the vexed border dispute.
Lalchamliana said that it will take time to have a lasting solution to the boundary problem.
Both delegations agreed to hold the next round of talks in Assam's capital Guwahati in October.
To a question, the Assam minister said that formation of a joint inspection team to conduct ground verification of the border areas will be discussed in the next meeting.
He said a chief ministerial-level talk can be expected soon.
Mizoram's stand on the border issue will also be discussed in the next round of the talks, Lalchamliana said.
Three Mizoram's districts - Aizawl, Kolasib and Mamit - share a 164.6 km long boundary with Assam's Hailakandi, Karimganj and Cachar districts.
The border dispute between the two states is a long-standing issue, which stemmed from two colonial demarcations in 1875 and 1933.
There is no proper ground demarcation between the two neighbouring states after Mizoram was carved out as a Union Territory from Assam in 1972.

The transfer market can often encourage even the shrewdest of clubs to pay the big bucks to land the players on their wishlist. There are several factors driving high prices, including the player's worth to his parent club and his potential to become a world-beater.
Spanish players, in particular, have fetched quite a bit of money as they are often wanted by multiple clubs. Keeping the ball on the ground, being excellent in possession and technically adept are just some of the facets of most Spaniards and players who have played in the country.
So it comes as no surprise that the transfer fees paid for them are normally on the higher side as compared to their market value. On that note, let's take a look at five of the most expensive Spanish players of all time.
Note: Players who were not born in Spain but have represented the national team have been included in this list.
#5 Rodri - €62.7 million
Rodri has been one of the most influential players for Manchester City since signing for the Citizens for €62.7 million in 2019.
The former Atletico Madrid ace was lured to the Etihad by Pep Guardiola and has not looked back since. Playing a focal role in the center of the pitch, Rodri has dictated Manchester City's passing over the last three years. During this period, he has made 152 appearances across all competitions and has won the Premier League on two occasions.
He also scored vital goals in their title-winning campaign last season, including the equalizer in the 3-2 victory against Aston Villa on the last day. With the player still only 26-years-old, Manchester City are bound to earn a return on their massive investment in him if he has not already done the same.
#4 Aymeric Laporte - €65 million
Aymeric Laporte, albeit born and brought up in France, landed in Spain at Athletic Bilbao at the age of 16. He went on to establish himself as a top-quality centre-back before Manchester City snapped him up in January 2018.
However, the player did not come cheap. Bilbao played hardball with the Citizens, and the English side had to cough up €65 million (the club's most expensive player at the time) for the player.
Regardless, one can now argue that Laporte has certainly been worth it, having helped the club win four Premier League titles over his four-and-a-half seasons at the Etihad.
While injury issues have often been a concern for him, he is arguably the best centre-back at Manchester City and perhaps in England as well. An incredible ball-playing centre-back, Laporte has also opted for dual citizenship and is currently a starter for the Spanish national team.
#3 Marc Cucurella - €65.3 million
Marc Cucurella's recent move from Brighton & Hove Albion to Chelsea for €65.2 million is the most recent big-money transfer in the 2022 summer transfer window.
Although there were reports initially of a fee being agreed for a lower sum, the Seagulls were quick to dismiss such reports by putting out a club statement. The confusion behind this was perhaps surrounding the structure of Levi Colwill's move to Brighton, as it eventually settled into a straight loan deal.
Regardless, Thomas Tuchel & Todd Boehly will be pleased with their acquisition of the Spanish full-back. A versatile and dynamic player, Cucurella can not only deputize but also start ahead of Ben Chilwell for the Blues this season.
Additionally, he can also play as a left centre-back, thereby providing excellent depth in the defense. His transfer fee may have come under scrutiny, but it is worth noting that Cucurella won both player of the season awards at Brighton in the 2021/22 campaign.
Moreover, with the player having only recently turned 24, he has nearly a decade of football ahead of him. Nevertheless, time will be the best judge of the Spaniard's move to Chelsea this summer as the club looks to challenge for the biggest trophies again this season.
#2 Alvaro Morata - €66 million
Alvaro Morata may not have materialized into the player everybody thought he would be a few years ago, but there is still time for him to turn things around.
A Real Madrid academy graduate, Morata was bought by Chelsea in 2017 for €66 million as Antonio Conte decided to sign him to replace the outgoing Diego Costa. While the Spaniard produced encouraging performances in the beginning, things went downhill pretty quickly.
After a subpar debut season, Maurizio Sarri put him down the pecking order at the club as he preferred Olivier Giroud. Morata eventually joined Atletico Madrid on a loan deal in 2019 before signing for them permanently a year later.
Hence, it was a bad piece of business by the Blues, as evidenced by Morata's 24 goals and six assists in 72 appearances for the club. Chelsea, however, did recoup €65 million from his sale, thereby not sustaining any financial loss from his move in 2017.
#1 Kepa Arrizabalaga - €80 million
Chelsea love signing Spanish players for big fees, and Kepa Arrizabalaga is yet another indication of the same. The West London club brought him from Athletic Bilbao to Stamford Bridge in 2018 for a then club-record fee of €80 million.
During his debut season, Kepa helped the club win the Europa League trophy and finish 3rd in the Premier League. However, a bad memory from that campaign was the shot-stopper's refusal to be substituted in the 2019 Carabao Cup final defeat against Manchester City.
Although Maurizio Sarri left the club after only one season, Kepa's flaws were quickly identified during Frank Lampard's first season at the club. While the Spaniard could not be completely blamed for his poor performances in the 2019/20 season, Lampard decided to replace him by signing Edouard Mendy ahead of the following campaign.
Since then, Kepa has played as a back-up to the Senegalese but has proved crucial in penalty shoot-outs. He has now been linked with an exit from the club and the Blues might never recover a return on the €80 million they paid for him in 2018. | https://www.sportskeeda.com/football/5-expensive-spanish-players-time | 2022-08-09T15:11:14Z | https://www.sportskeeda.com/football/5-expensive-spanish-players-time | false | 1 |

CONCORD, N.H., Aug. 09, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The New Hampshire Public Health Association's VaxWell NH, in collaboration with the New Hampshire Division of Public Health Services, announced the launch of Vaccination Starts with You, a campaign designed to improve adolescents' wellness vaccination visits.
In the past two years, there has been a marked drop in vaccination and other preventative services, leaving children and adolescents at greater risk for vaccine-preventable diseases. All age cohorts have seen a decrease in wellness visits during the COVID-19 pandemic, with adolescent age cohorts most impacted. As the impact of the pandemic continues, focused efforts on maintaining recommended vaccinations while recovering missing vaccinations are critical. Summer is a perfect time to catch up on wellness visits and vaccinations, and everyone can help make that happen.
According to the NHPHA Executive Director, Hanan Bedri, "The campaign brings together a wide range of stakeholders, including healthcare providers, school nurses, community health workers, and other key influencers, to remind families that summer is a perfect time to catch up on wellness vaccination visits so that their children and teens don't miss out on school and other activities this coming fall."
"Teens' health needs to change with their bodies in large and small ways, and getting teens vaccinated against infectious diseases can help them from getting sick and missing out on the important milestones in their life. Parents and caregivers can do their part by talking with their teen's healthcare provider about which vaccines are right for their growing adolescents," said the Director of the New Hampshire Division of Public Health Services, Patricia M. Tilley.
The campaign includes outreach to stakeholders, adolescents, and their families through email, posters, and social media. Download your campaign poster today by visiting www.vaxwellnh.org/campaigns.

OKC Thunder: Perspective on Thunder Blocking Pokusevski From EuroBasket, Allowing Maledon, Krejci to Compete
The Oklahoma City Thunder roster have continued to showcase their skills throughout the offseason.
Following a 5-3 split across the Salt Lake City and Las Vegas Summer League, a slew of Thunder members have honed their skills further, playing in multiple different atmospheres. While some have taken to Pro-Am circuits, such as Chet Holmgren, others have competed in open runs, most recently with Ty Jerome working out with Chris Brickley.
Intertwined with Summer activities, the international stage sits atop the ballot for a flurry of players. Last month, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander placed two contests for Team Canada, while Theo Maledon recorded a pair of games for Team France in the 2023 FIBA Qualifying play.
However, these international outlets are far from finished this offseason. And, with the Thunder carrying multiple international prospects, a trio of Thunder members looked to play this month for their homeland: Aleksej Pokusevski, Theo Maledon, and Vit Krejci.
Maledon and Krejci received the green light for FIBA and EuroBasket play. On the other hand, Pokusevski was blocked from his opportunity to play for Team Serbia.
“[For] Pokusevski and Jovic, we did not get permission from their teams.”
Maledon is currently training in France, while Krejci has begun his first week of practice with Team Czech Republic this week. But why did the Thunder draw a line on Pokusevski?
Why is Aleksej Pokusevski’s Case Different?
For starters, the infancy stages of Pokusevski’s NBA tenure have concluded. While both Pokusevski and Maledon were selected in the 2020 NBA Draft, with Poku being just 20 years old, the Thunder have made clear strides towards eventual postseason contention.
The roster has not been flipped on its head per se from last season. However, the dynamics most certainly have. Thus far, the Thunder have added five players: four rookies in Chet Holmgren, Ousmane Dieng, Jalen Williams, and Jaylin Williams, and one two-way addition in Eugene Omoruyi. On the flip side, Oklahoma City has only offloaded Isaiah Roby – placing the roster well above the standard contract limit.
Barring a stunner, Pokusevski is a safe bet to make the Thunder’s 15-man roster. Despite inconsistent outputs, his guard-like mold with a 7-foot frame coupled with his quick release makes him an extremely difficult cover when hot.
While Pokusevski should be set-and-stone to be in the regular-season roster, his overall stakes are much higher – from a rotational standpoint – than Maledon or Krejci. Upon the addition of Chet Holmgren, and to a smaller degree Jaylin Williams, there’s a clear landslide at the center position. With the Thunder sure to start Holmgren, former starter Jeremiah Robinson-Earl is in hijinx, making him a candidate to play power forward minutes. Under the assumption, it’ll be a difficult task for Pokusevski and Darius Bazley to maintain consistent minutes.
Recommended for You
Pokusevski and Bazley have shown positive traits that make them solid pieces within the rotation. However, it’s clear they need to sharpen out their edges, particularly from distance. As alluded to by Team Serbia’s National Team Selector, the 20-year-old should be in Oklahoma City this month, meaning he’ll be training directly with the Thunder. Due to his career 28.5% output from distance, him getting additional reps under shooting coach Chip Engelland also make his stay beneficial.
What Can You Draw From Theo Maledon and Vit Krejci Netting Green Lights?
Quite frankly, it’s hard to exactly pinpoint the particulars on why the Thunder opted for Maledon and Krejci to play for their respective homelands while Pokusevski did not. However, you can see some differences in overall situation.
While Pokusevski has been a key entry in the Thunder’s rotation the past two seasons, the same cannot be said about Maledon or Krejci. Maledon, age 21, actually led the Thunder in minutes as a rookie. But, with the additions of Josh Giddey, Tre Mann, and an early surge from Ty Jerome – he did not earn minutes with a completely healthy Thunder squad. In the case of Krejci, he showed progression with the Oklahoma City Blue to begin last season and had marquee moments with the franchise to cap the year. But, similar to Maledon, his NBA minutes were backloaded, almost contingent on the team’s sunsetted roster.
The biggest distinguishing factor between these pair of guards and Poku is their overall foothold in the consensus roster cuts. It’s no secret, the Thunder are going to shed guaranteed salaries in the coming months. With 18 standard contracts inked and only 15 spots available, players outside of the regular rotation in Maledon and Krejci will be fighting for a spot on the roster.
In this hodgepodge of fringe roster pieces, likely joining Derrick Favors and Ty Jerome in such a category, any sort of separation will be pivotal. Placing Maledon and Krejci with their homelands for EuroBasket and FIBA competitions will allow the Thunder to assess their skill sets under in-game reps and scrimmages.
Where Will Maledon and Krejci Be Playing?
Theo Maledon will compete in FIBA 2023 Qualifier action for Team France, clashing with Krejci on August 24 versus the Czech Republic before playing Bosnia and Herzegovina on August 27.
Team France will also play five games from September 1-7 in the 2022 EuroBasket.
Vit Krejci will be on the counter with Team Czech Republic on August 24, facing Maledon and Team France. On August 27, he will face Team Hungary.
Team Czech Republic will also play five games from September 1-8 in the 2022 EuroBasket.

(WHNT) – Drivers nationwide were seeing some relief at the pump Tuesday morning.
GasBuddy, a tech firm and fuel-pricing resource, reported Tuesday that the national average fell below $4 per gallon for the first time since early March. Tuesday’s average was $3.99 per gallon, down more than $1 from the record-high of $5.03 a gallon on June 14.
Declining crude oil prices over the last month have helped this decline, saving Americans nearly $400 million at the pump when compared to spending in June.
Prices began increasing in March amid Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. According to GasBuddy, this caused the global oil supply to tighten at the same time demand rose into the summer. Inventories tightened as a result, sending prices skyrocketing to record levels. Some areas of California jumped as high as $7 a gallon at the peak of the high prices, along with diesel seeing its highest-ever ratio to regular gas.
Patrick De Haan, the head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy, said a perfect storm of factors led to record prices throughout the summer.
“We’ve never seen anything like 2022 at the pump, highlighted by once-in-a-lifetime events including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which caused myriad imbalances, exacerbated by Russia’s war on Ukraine,” said De Haan. “As a result, we’ve seen gas prices behave in ways never witnessed before, jumping from $3 to $5 and now back to $3.99.”
He added that those contributing factors are still somewhat in play.
“While the recent drop in gas prices has been most welcomed, the issues that led to skyrocketing prices aren’t completely put to bed, and still could lead prices to eventually climb back up, should something unexpected develop,” he said.
GasBuddy recommends shopping around to find the best gas prices, adding that conditions change quickly and stations within a few blocks can sometimes vary in price by more than 30 cents per gallon. | https://www.mystateline.com/news/national-average-gas-price-ticks-below-4-a-gallon-gasbuddy/ | 2022-08-09T15:18:08Z | https://www.mystateline.com/news/national-average-gas-price-ticks-below-4-a-gallon-gasbuddy/ | false | 23 |

Motown songwriter-producer Lamont Dozier dead at 81
NEW YORK (AP) — Lamont Dozier, the middle name of the celebrated Holland-Dozier-Holland team that wrote and produced “You Can’t Hurry Love,” “Heat Wave” and dozens of other hits and helped make Motown an essential record company of the 1960s and beyond, has died at age 81.
Dozier’s death was confirmed Tuesday by Paul Lambert, who helped produce the stage musical “The First Wives Club” that Holland-Dozier-Holland wrote for.
In Motown’s historic, self-defined rise to the “Sound of Young America,” Holland-Dozier-Holland stood out even compared to such gifted peers as Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder and Barrett Strong. Over a four-year period, 1963-67, Dozier and brothers Brian and Eddie Holland crafted more than 25 top 10 songs and mastered the blend of pop and rhythm and blues that allowed the Detroit label, and founder Berry Gordy, to defy boundaries between Black and white music and rival the Beatles on the airwaves.
For the Four Tops, they wrote “Baby I Need Your Loving” and “Reach Out (I’ll Be There),” for Martha and the Vandellas they wrote “Heat Wave” and “Jimmy Mack,” for Marvin Gaye “Baby Don’t You Do It” and “How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You).” The music lived on through countless soundtracks, samplings and radio airings, in cover versions by the Rolling Stones, Linda Ronstadt, James Taylor and many others and in generations of songwriters and musicians influenced by the Motown sound.
“Their structures were simple and direct,” Gerri Hirshey wrote in the Motown history “Nowhere to Run: The Story of Soul Music,” published in 1984. “Sometimes a song barreled to number one on the sheer voice of repetitive hooks, like a fast-food jungle that lurks, subliminally, until it connects with real hunger.”
Brian Wilson, Ron Wood and Mick Hucknall were among the many musicians offering tributes Tuesday. Carole King, who with then-husband Gerry Goffin was another leading hitmaker of the ‘60s, tweeted that that “striving to keep up with them made us better songwriters.”
The polish of H-D-H was ideally suited for Motown’s signature act, Diana Ross and the Supremes, for whom they wrote 10 No. 1 songs, among them “Where Did Our Love Go,” “Stop! In the Name of Love” and “You Can’t Hurry Love.” Expectations were so high that when “Nothing But Heartaches” failed to make the top 10 in 1965, Gordy sent a company memo demanding that Motown only release chart toppers for the Supremes, an order H-D-H obeyed with “I Hear a Symphony” and several more records.
Holland-Dozier-Holland weren’t above formulas or closely repeating a previous hit, but they worked in various moods and styles: the casual joy of “How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You),” the escalating desire of “Heat Wave,” the urgency of “Reach Out (I’ll Be There).” Dozier’s focus was on melody and arrangements, whether the haunting echoes of the Vandellas’ backing vocals on “Nowhere To Run,” flashing lights of guitar that drive the Supremes’ “You Keep Me Hanging On,” or the hypnotic gospel piano on Gaye’s “Can I Get a Witness.”
“All the songs started out as slow ballads, but when we were in the studio we’d pick up the tempo,” Dozier told the Guardian in 2001. “The songs had to be fast because they were for teenagers - otherwise it would have been more like something for your parents. The emotion was still there, it was just under cover of the optimism that you got from the up-tempo beat.”
The prime of H-D-H, and of Motown, ended in 1968 amid questions and legal disputes over royalties and other issues. H-D-H left the label, and neither side would recover. The Four Tops and the Supremes were among the acts who suffered from no longer having their most dependable writers. Meanwhile, H-D-H’s efforts to start their own business fell far short of Motown. The labels Invictus and Hot Wax both faded within a few years, and Dozier would recall with disbelief the Hollands’ turning down such future superstars as Al Green and George Clinton. H-D-H did release several hits, including Freda Payne’s “Band of Gold” and Honey Cone’s “Want Ads.”
Holland-Dozier-Holland were inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1988 and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame two years later. On his own, Dozier had a top 20 hit with “Trying to Hold on to My Woman,” helped produce Aretha Franklin’s “Sweet Passion” album and collaborated with Eric Clapton and Hucknall among others. His biggest success was co-writing Phil Collins’ chart-topping “Two Hearts,” from the 1988 movie “Buster,” a mid-tempo, Motown-style ballad that won a Grammy and Golden Globe and received an Oscar nomination.
H-D-H reunited for a stage production of “The First Wives Club,” which premiered in 2009, but their time back together was brief and unhappy. Dozier and the Hollands clashed often and Dozier dropped out before the show launched. “I can’t see us ever working with Lamont again,” Eddie Holland wrote in “Come and Get These Memories,” a memoir by the Hollands that came out in 2019, the same year Dozier published the memoir “How Sweet It Is.”
Dozier acknowledged that his early success conflicted with his family life, but he eventually settled down with Barbara Ullman, who died in 2021 after more than 40 years of marriage. His children included the songwriter-record producer Beau Dozier and composer Paris Ray Dozier.
Like so many Motown artists, Dozier was born in Detroit and raised in a family of singers and musicians. He sang in the choir of his Baptist church and his love for words was affirmed by a grade school teacher who, he recalled, liked one of his poems so much she kept it on the blackboard for a month. By the late 1950s, he was a professional singer and eventually signed with Motown, where he first worked with Brian Holland, and then Eddie Holland, who wrote most of the lyrics.
Some of Motown’s biggest hits and catchiest phrases originated from Dozier’s domestic life. He remembered his grandfather’s addressing women as “Sugar pie, honey bunch,” the opening words and ongoing refrain of the Four Tops’ “I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch).” The Four Tops hit “Bernadette” was inspired by all three songwriters having troubles with women named Bernadette, while an argument with another Dozier girlfriend helped inspire a Supremes favorite.
“She was pretty heated up because I was quite the ladies’ man at that time and I’d been cheating on her,” Dozier told the Guardian. “So she started telling me off and swinging at me until I said, ‘Stop! In the name of love!’ And as soon as I’d said it I heard a cash register in my head and laughed. My girlfriend didn’t think it was very amusing: we broke up. The only ones who were happy about it were the Supremes.”

Novavax's COVID vaccine rollout off to sluggish start with just 7,000 doses
Following its emergency authorization last month, just 7,300 doses of Novavax's COVID-19 vaccine have been administered to Americans across the country, newly updated data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reveals.
According to John Brownstein, Ph.D., an epidemiologist at Boston Children's Hospital and an ABC News contributor, the sluggish start may be, in part, due to the fact that the vaccines were not immediately made available after authorization, and thus, there could be some reporting delays.
The total Novavax doses represent just a fraction of the shots put into arms each day, though the overall number of vaccines administered has plummeted in recent months.
In addition, the vaccine has not been widely available, with just 385 sites initially offering the Novavax vaccine out of the more than 53,000 locations with COVID-19 vaccines, Brownstein said. However, in recent days, that number has jumped to 986 sites, which Brownstein suggested may help boost uptake.
MORE: Novavax COVID vaccine will still save lives, experts say, even with limited supply"A mix of lower access, limited promotion and a slowing of the vaccination campaign means that Novavax has not been of high priority for remaining unvaccinated Americans," Brownstein said. "As supply increases, we could see increased access but it’s unlikely to make a real dent."
In July, the Biden administration secured 3.2 million doses of Novavax’s COVID-19 vaccine, in hopes that some unvaccinated Americans would get the shot.
A number of health experts had expressed their hope that some of the individuals, who are still hesitant to be vaccinated, would be more inclined to get the Novavax vaccine, because it is based on a more traditional protein-based technology, one already used for the flu vaccine and other shots, while Pfizer and Moderna vaccine platforms tapped a new genetic technology — with messenger RNA — to produce their vaccines.
"A more traditional delivery route has to be seen as incentive to convince those that have yet to roll up their sleeves," Brownstein explained.
MORE: The future of COVID vaccines could be sprays, not shotsHowever, early indicators suggest that the authorization has yet to substantially move the needle with the most hesitant Americans.
Even so, health experts previously told ABC News that no matter how widespread the use of Novavax's vaccine is, it will still save lives.
Nationally, there are still more than 26 million American adults who remain completely unvaccinated.
There has not been a significant bump in the number of people receiving a first COVID-19 dose since November 2021. Since then, the average number has steadily fallen to around 50,000 first shots, administered across all eligible age groups, each day. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2694885688180/novavax-s-covid-vaccine-rollout-off-to-sluggish-start-with-just-7-000-doses | 2022-08-09T15:29:38Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2694885688180/novavax-s-covid-vaccine-rollout-off-to-sluggish-start-with-just-7-000-doses | false | 10 |
We must always find a reason to celebrate- our country’s presence and achievements at the world stage. That’s what the sport teaches us and that is why we compete in the sports field.
Whenever India is up against Australia in any discipline; we always know it will be a good contest. Australia gave us a drubbing in Men’s Hockey at the Commonwealth
Games and a day earlier our women’s cricket team learnt another loss the hard way from the World Champions.
Australia is a strong force in the field of sport and each time we face them there is a lesson; a lesson to improve holistically. To be fair, the Indian women cricket teams have known this right through decades and generations. Australia know how to win. If you match their skill level; then their belief and confidence takes over; that pulls them ahead of their competition.
Harmanpreet, the senior most member in this Indian side; since making her debut in 2009 has been involved in many semi-finals and now finals too where the final lap is still unconquered. And she knows it better than the rest that the last one is the toughest lap. During the medal ceremony while the Indian contingent acknowledged the crowd with silver medals around their neck; Harman stood still.
It will be anyone’s guess that she was still in disbelief, still searching those answers with many thoughts rushing through her mind- of what more will give India the winners’ pedestal. Playing as a professional in international cricket leagues has certainly opened up the mindset, enhanced the skill levels and more so given a player a massive opportunity to learn and know their individual game. Jemimah has succeeded in the UK leagues, Smriti and Harman have been successful in both UK and Australia. Deepti Sharma and Radha Yadav have also had good outings. But it’s just the beginning. It is a long, time-consuming process.
Just to give an idea- for a male cricketer; a journey from India Under-19 to becoming a consistent member or match winner for the senior men’s team takes approximately 5-7 years or more. Leaving aside the pathway to becoming an India U19 player; this male player from there on will continuously be playing in the IPL, domestic tournaments, India A tours and will be busy throughout the year.
Whereas, an Indian woman cricketer would play half the number of days of that in comparison. So; the development cannot be at the same pace keeping all parameters common. For a 5 feet 4inch average height of team to match 5’8′ average height team will require a lot of skill and strength. As a player I have always liked competing against the good teams who are probably better than us too. And in that preparation to succeed the mindset is also to win that battle (individually against the bowler and collectively as a team). A lot has not changed over a decade. India still looks to beat Australia/England. Whereas these teams look to create their own new paths to succeed. While we play catch up, they are progressing to another height. Good for the ones behind as a pathway is already made; but how
quickly you cross it remains an individual’s effort.
I felt bad that India lost the gold medal match at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham. Similar flaws came to the forefront for India. But reflecting back on the areas that had shown improvement; it gave me solace that we are progressing. Harman acknowledged that she required another batter alongside her to finish that final lap.
We have one and very soon will have more than one for India. Sport is all about progressing…

Mt Kenya voters included octogenarian with 40-year voting streak
For more than four decades, Judy Wamunyu, 80, has been trooping to the Kiamugumo Primary School polling station in Kirinyaga County to vote.
Every election cycle, she turns out to exercise her democratic right.
The mother of eight has never missed voting in a General Election even when she was unwell.
She said she wants to see good leaders elected to govern the country.
"I feel duty-bound to participate in the elections so that I don't regret," she told Nation.Africa at Kiamugumo as she waited to cast her vote.
Ms Wamunyu did not go to school but she knows the importance of voting.
"I had no one to take me to school but I know that if I don't go to vote I will do a disservice to my country," Ms Wamunyu said.
She recollected that she started voting in the 1970s and all the leaders that she voted for did a good job.
"I go to vote because I would like to have honest and competent leaders. I admire incorruptible and hardworking leaders," she said.
She explained that Azimio la Umoja One Kenya running mate Martha Karua is one of the leaders she voted for previously.
"When Ms Karua entered politics in 1992, I voted for her as the Gichugu MP. Ms Karua held that position for 20 years, until she quit to seek the presidency. She motivated me to continue voting because she stood for the truth. She was an honest and development-conscious leader," she said.
The ailing Wamunyu said she would continue voting as long as she is alive.
"Like now, I'm sick. My legs are aching but I will camp here until I cast my vote. I'm confident the right leaders will be elected to take my county and the country forward. What I want to see after the polls is development and peace," said the octogenarian.
In Murang’a, Alice Wamboi, 103, turned up to vote at Ndikwe Primary in Kiharu constituency.
Ms Wambui said she was voting for the sake of future generations.
Meanwhile, in Nanyuki, 35 prisoners at Nanyuki GK Prison voted for their favourite presidential candidates in today’s polls.
The station's presiding officer Angela Maina said voting ended at 10.30am without hiccups.
At Nanyuki Primary, there was a delay at Stream 2 for the better part of the morning because of malfunctioning Kiems kits. But the gadget was replaced and voting continued.
At the Nanyuki Kanu grounds, the largest station with 12 streams, voting went on smoothly though some voters were confused about which queue to join.
Laikipia East police boss John Tarus said voting was peaceful without any malpractices or chaos.
"The area is safe and voters are participating in the process without any incidents of insecurity," Mr Tarus said as he patrolled polling centres.
As of 4am, long queues were witnessed, including at Nanyuki DEB Primary School.
In Kirinyaga, low voter turnout marred the elections in the morning.
At Rukenya and Thumaita primary schools, only a few voters were seen casting their votes for the better part of the morning.
Queues were shorter there, suggesting voter apathy in the region.
Former Kirinyaga governor Joseph Ndathi, who is seeking to recapture his seat under The Service Party (TSP), expressed concerns about low turnout.
"Unlike in 2013 and 2017, this time the queues are shorter," said Mr Ndathi after casting his vote at Rukenya.
He appealed to residents to turn out in large numbers and elect leaders of their choice.
"It is still early in the morning and we expect more people to visit polling stations to vote. I urge residents not to stay at home. They should agree to exercise their democratic right so that they will not regret [not voting]," he said.
Mr Ndathi exuded confidence that he would triumph, but he promised to concede defeat if he loses in a fair political game.
He told his rivals to also accept defeat if he defeats them.
In Tharaka Nithi, voting was delayed when Kiems kits malfunctioned.
Voting failed at the Giampampo polling station, where former Tharaka Nithi governor Samuel Ragwa, who is running for the Senate seat, voted.
Tharaka Nithi Jubilee governor candidate Erastus Njoka voted at Mukuthuku Primary.
In Muthara ward, voters were confronted with the longest ballot in Kenya. The ward has 27 MCA candidates.
Earlier, a war of words between the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) candidates and security agents marked the start of voting in the county.
Governor aspirant Irungu Kang'ata and Kandara MP aspirant Alice Wahome accused security agents of privately meeting with Azimio candidates.
But the government trashed the claims as propaganda and lies.
Mr Kang'ata had accused County Commissioner Karuku Ngumo of meeting at night with his competitor Jamleck Kamau (Jubilee).
"The aspirant used a [Toyota] Probox … to travel to Murang'a town to meet with the commissioner. For what purpose? I don't know. I urge all our supporters to remain vigilant against any monkey business," he said.
But Mr Ngumo dismissed the claims as unfounded.
He said security agents are not allied to any political formation and their participation in the General Election was purely within their constitutional mandate.
This came as some administrators in the area posted on their social media pages that Jubilee aspirants were their preferred candidates.

Parents and relatives of Armenian captives in Azerbaijan held a protest on Monday demanding a meeting with Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan. After not receiving an answer, they continued their protest in front of the government building overnight.
On Tuesday morning, government officials informed the parents that they would be called and invited for a meeting, after which they agreed to stop the sit-in protest.
‘They give us the same tale, the same lie every time’, a relative of one soldier sentenced to prison in Baku told News.am. ‘We don’t have any information… everyone we appeal to runs away; we shout to them to stop, but they don’t’.
‘If our Prime Minister doesn’t want to meet us or doesn’t have anything to say, who should we demand our sons from?’ another parent asked. ‘They have their sons with them’.
‘We are ordinary people; how can we negotiate with Putin?’, he said, urging Pashinyan to appeal to Russia for assistance.
The soldiers in question were taken captive from the Hin Tagher and Khtsaberd villages, of the Hadrut region, which were under the control of Russian peacekeepers.
Their capture took place over a month after the ceasefire agreement ending the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh War. The settlements have since passed under Azerbaijani control, despite being part of the Russian-controlled territory.
According to the Armenian government, 39 Armenian soldiers and civilians are currently held captive in Azerbaijan where they are sentenced to up to 15 years of imprisonment in Baku on ‘terrorism’ charges. Armenian lawyers representing the relatives of prisoners of war in international courts claim, however, to have information about over a hundred Armenian captives in Azerbaijan.
Since the end of the Second Nagorno-Karabakh war, Azerbaijan has returned 150 Armenian captives and prisoners of war.
Despite having agreed to release prisoners of war as part of the 9 November ceasefire agreement and receiving additional calls from the international community to do so, Azerbaijan refuses to return the prisoners.
In a call with Azerbaijani president Ilham Aliyev in late July, the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken called for the release of ‘all remaining Armenian detainees’.
The most recent return of Armenian captives, negotiated by the EU, took place in February.
In May, Pashinyan stated that Aliyev had broken another agreement reached in Brussels in Spring. He claimed that while Armenia had provided Azerbaijan with maps of minefields, Azerbaijan had failed to deliver on their part of the agreement by returning Armenian prisoners of war.
He claimed that Aliyev was using the prisoners as leverage in negotiations.
‘This is using people for political purposes and making them a subject of trade, which is condemnable.’
According to Armenia, there are also still 183 soldiers and 20 civilians considered to be missing, but search and rescue operations in the territories Azerbaijan took control over since the war stopped a few months ago. As of June, Armenia was negotiating to resume operations to find the remains of the missing. | https://oc-media.org/parents-of-armenian-prisoners-of-war-hold-overnight-protest/ | 2022-08-09T15:37:35Z | https://oc-media.org/parents-of-armenian-prisoners-of-war-hold-overnight-protest/ | false | 1 |
The cricket world has been paying tribute to Rudi Koertzen, the South African umpire famous for his long, slow finger of fate upon giving a player out, after he died in a car crash aged 73.
A hugely popular umpire on the global circuit, Koertzen officiated in 331 international matches during an 18-year career – a record at the time and one that has since been broken by Aleem Dar of Pakistan – before his retirement in 2010.
News of Koertzen’s death broke on Tuesday morning when South Africa’s men emerged for the first morning of their four-day warmup match against England Lions in Canterbury wearing black armbands. “Koertzen’s status as a legend of the game will live on for ever,” Cricket South Africa said in a statement.
According to reports in South Africa, the former umpire was one of four people killed in a head-on collision while driving back from Cape Town to his home in Despatch, Eastern Cape, after a golf weekend with friends.
Dar, who like Koertzen is one of three ICC elite umpires to stand in more than 100 Tests, told ESPNCricinfo: “It is a very big loss foremost for his family and then for South Africa and cricket.
“I stood in so many games with him. He was not only very good as an umpire but also an excellent colleague, always very cooperative on field and also always willing to help off the field. Because of the way he was, he was also well respected by players.”
Kumar Sangakkara, the great Sri Lankan batter, was among the former players who shared their thoughts, tweeting: “Saddened at the tragic loss of Rudi Koertzen. What a wonderful friend and umpire. Honest, forthright and loved the game. Shared many a beer at the bar talking cricket with him. RIP my friend.”
As well as his trademark slow raising of the finger that prolonged the agony for batters and added to the theatre, Koertzen was well known to supporters in the UK as the umpire who ceremoniously removed the bails at the end of the 2005 Ashes.
Koertzen, who worked in the construction industry before becoming a full-time umpire in 1993, signed off from top-level officiating during the 2011 Indian Premier League but still stood in matches for his local club, Despatch CC.
A statement from the club read: “A legend in his own right passed away this morning and will definitely leave a great void in the cricket world. We want to express our heartfelt sympathy and empathy to Uncle Rudi Koertzen’s family and loved ones.” | https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2022/aug/09/a-legend-cricket-mourns-death-of-ex-umpire-rudi-koertzen-in-car-crash | 2022-08-09T15:41:08Z | https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2022/aug/09/a-legend-cricket-mourns-death-of-ex-umpire-rudi-koertzen-in-car-crash | true | 2 |

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — The leaders of Estonia and Finland want fellow European countries to stop issuing tourist visas to Russian citizens, saying they should not be able to take vacations in Europe while the Russian government carries out a war in Ukraine.
Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas wrote Tuesday on Twitter that “visiting Europe is a privilege, not a human right” and that it is “time to end tourism from Russia now.”
A day earlier, her counterpart in Finland, Sanna Marin, told Finnish broadcaster YLE that “it is not right that while Russia is waging an aggressive, brutal war of aggression in Europe, Russians can live a normal life, travel in Europe, be tourists.”
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy went further in a Washington Post interview Monday, saying all Western countries should ban Russian tourists.
Estonia and Finland both border Russia and are members of the European Union, which banned air travel from Russia after it invaded Ukraine. But Russians can still travel by land to both countries and apparently are then taking flights to other European destinations.
The calls for a travel ban have sparked outrage within Russia, from both the Kremlin and its critics. Opposition-minded public figures condemned the comments in social media posts as fueling Moscow’s anti-Western propaganda and being unhelpful in stopping the war.
“I think that over time, common sense will somehow manifest itself, and those who made such statements will come to their senses,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Tuesday.
YLE reported last week that Russian companies have started offering car trips from St. Petersburg to the airports of Helsinki and Lappeenranta in Finland, which have direct connections to several places in Europe. Russia’s second-largest city is about 300 kilometers (186 miles) from the Finnish capital.
Visas issued by Finland are valid across most of Europe’s travel zone, known as the “Schengen area” which is made up of 26 countries: 22 EU nations plus Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland. Normally, people and goods move freely between these countries without border checks. Nineteen other countries outside this travel area allow in foreigners using a Schengen visa.
Finland just resumed accepting applications for tourist visas in Russia on July 1, lifting monthslong travel restrictions imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Some EU countries no longer issue visas to Russians, including Latvia, which made that decision this month because of the war.
The visa issue is expected be discussed at an informal meeting of EU foreign ministers on Aug. 31, YLE reported.
“I would believe that in future European Council meetings, this issue will come up even more strongly. My personal position is that tourism should be restricted,” Marin told the Finnish broadcaster.
Peskov on Tuesday said calls for travel bans are usually coming from countries that Moscow has already deemed “hostile” and “many of those countries in their hostility sink into oblivion.”
Putin’s close associate and deputy head of Russia’s Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, dismissed the Estonian premier’s statement, adding ominously: “I just want to remind her of another saying: ‘The fact that you are free is not your merit, but our flaw.’”
Zelenskyy told The Washington Post that “the most important sanctions are to close the borders” for Russian travelers, “because the Russians are taking away someone else’s land.”
Russians should “live in their own world until they change their philosophy,” Zelenskyy said, adding that such restrictions should apply to all Russians, even those who left the country and oppose the war.
It’s contrasts with what he said in March, a month after Moscow sent troops into Ukraine, when he urged Russians to leave the country to avoid funding the war with their taxes.
Asked about Zelenskyy’s remarks, Peskov, the Kremlin spokesman, called them a “statement … that speaks for itself,” which Moscow views “extremely negatively.”

The semi-annual report issued by PatientRightsAdvocate.org is a detailed look at hospital compliance with price transparency measures required by law
WASHINGTON, Aug. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- A new report released by PatientRightsAdvocate.org shows a vast majority of hospitals continue to hide the actual prices from consumers nearly 20 months after the Hospital Price Transparency Rule went into effect.
The transparency law went into effect January 1, 2021, to establish a functional, competitive market in healthcare allowing consumers to benefit from competition and through choice lower their costs of both care and coverage.
The latest Semi-Annual Hospital Price Transparency Compliance Report shows that just 16% of the 2,000 hospitals reviewed are complying with a rule, indicating that progress on hospital's compliance with federal law has slowed dramatically. PatientRightsAdvocate.org's previously released two reports, one in February 2022 (one year after rule) which showed 14.6% compliance, and one in July 2021 (six months after rule) which showed 5.6% compliance.
"Unfortunately, after nearly 20 months of the Hospital Price Transparency Rule being in effect, the compliance rate has stalled, with only marginal improvement to 16% compliance up from 14.3% in our previous report," said Cynthia Fisher, Founder and Chairman of PatientsRightsAdvocate.org. "The quickest way to substantially improve compliance is through monetary fines which work, as our report shows."
The new analysis of 2,000 hospitals across the United States found:
- Only 319 (16.0%) were complying with the rule.
- 101 hospitals (5.1%) did not post any standard charges file and were in total noncompliance.
- None (0%) of the hospitals owned by two of the largest hospital systems in the country – HCA Healthcare and Ascension Health – are complying.
- 45 of 111 (40.5%) CommonSpirit Health hospitals, the second largest hospital system in the country, are now compliant up from just 1 of 88 (1.14%) hospitals in the February 2022 report.
Earlier this summer, Fisher was featured on NBC Nightly News discussing the previous report. After the segment aired the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued fines for two hospitals with no pricing files. According to the report, both hospitals are now in full compliance and have exemplary files posted on their websites.
"It's alarming to see that progress on compliance with federal law on transparency has ground nearly to a stop," said Fisher. "With enforcement, fines, and transparent hospital accountability we will see the power shift to healthcare consumers and employers to lower costs. In this report we have outlined more than 100 hospitals that HHS could fine today based on criteria applied to the two hospitals they've previously fined. That is a great place to start."

Indian society is extremely sensitive to challenges of security, perhaps more than many of its contemporaries and it faces conventional and non-conventional threats of a broad range, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said on Tuesday.
Delivering the 34th Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Memorial Lecture at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel National Police Academy, he said externally, the task of securing unsettled boundaries is always an exacting one and that the current generations have direct memories of multiple conflicts also shaping their perception. Each of these aspects understandably requires an upgraded response.
"Indian society is extremely sensitive to challenges of security, perhaps more than many of its contemporaries. Like the rest of the world, it faces conventional and non-conventional threats of a broad range," he said in a series of tweets comprising excerpts of his speech.
Law and order issues and even internal security are obviously more complex in a large, pluralistic and diverse polity and the concerns about terrorism are particularly sharp since India has experienced unrelenting violence sponsored from across its borders, he further said.

What channel is Rangers v Union Saint-Gilloise Champions League qualifier on? Kick off time, live stream and latest team news
Check out how to watch Rangers v Union Saint-Gilloise in the Champions League qualifiers this week, including TV details, team news, predictions and odds.
Rangers will be desperate to avoid blowing their chance of elite Champions League football at the first hurdle in 2022/23.
Last season's Europa League finalists were handed a Champions League qualifier place after the Scottish Premiership was awarded an extra European spot due to no Russian teams featuring in the tournament.
However, Giovanni van Bronckhorst's men were defeated 2-0 by Belgian runners-up Union Saint-Gilloise in the first leg of their tie and must now fight back from a major deficit.
Rangers fans will still believe their team can upset the odds on the continent once more and secure a big victory at Ibrox, but their hopes of Champions League qualification hang precariously in the balance.
Should Rangers overturn the deficit to progress, they will face the winner of Monaco and PSV in a play-off for a place in the Champions League group stages.

WATCH: Duke football player shocks team with singing voice
Published: Aug. 9, 2022 at 10:13 AM CDT|Updated: 40 minutes ago
DURHAM, N.C. (CNN) – A Duke University football player serenaded his teammates with a voice some may not expect out of a 6 feet 7 inches tall, 329-pound offensive lineman.
His teammates quietly watched and filmed Chance Lytle as he sang at training camp.
When he was done, everyone cheered and jumped up and down as if they won a game or scored a touchdown.
Lytle transferred from the University of Colorado where he graduated with a dual degree in Music and Voice Performance and Psychology.
The video on TikTok already has more than 50,000 likes.

Clemson's First Day of Fall Practice: Defensive Observations
CLEMSON, S.C. -- The Clemson Football team opened fall practice Friday on the practice fields behind the Allen Reeves Football Complex in Clemson.

CLEMSON, S.C. -- The Clemson Football team opened fall practice Friday on the practice fields behind the Allen Reeves Football Complex in Clemson.
All Clemson was on hand for the first of practice as head coach Dabo Swinney allowed the media to watch the first half of practice. Here are some news and notes from what we saw on the defensive side of the football:
* Sophomore Barrett Carter was working with both the linebackers and safeties during practice. This is definitely a good indication that Carter will likely be a first, second and third-down linebacker, playing as the SAM linebacker and possibly as the nickel back.
* With James Skalski and Baylon Spector now playing in the NFL, Clemson is looking for a new leader at linebacker. It appears Keith Maguire will be that guy for new linebackers coach and defensive coordinator Wes Goodwin.
When freshman linebacker T.J. Dudley did not run out a drill properly, Maguire let him know it and made sure the freshman heard him.
* Speaking of getting on to someone, twice defensive ends coach Lemanski Hall addressed redshirt freshman Zaire Patterson and made him redo a drill because he did not like the way the defensive end was doing things.
* New defensive tackles coach Nick Eason had his players working hard in the summer heat.
As the defensive tackles ran through their individual drills, Eason ran Bryan Bresee and Tyler Davis first, then he had Tre Williams and Ruke Orhorhoro run next in almost every drill.
Payton Page, who checked in at 317 pounds during weigh-ins on Thursday, ran with ET Reuben third. DeMonte Capehart and Jabriel Robinson were fourth. Capehart and Page changed out a few times during the drills.
* Myles Murphy and K.J. Henry came out running drills as the first group to start practice at defensive end. However, Xavier Thomas also worked with Murphy and the first group.
Justin Mascoll worked with the second group, as did Henry at times.
* After receiving praise from his head coach during Dabo Swinney's media session earlier in the day, defensive end Kevin Swint came out and backed up his coach's claim.
Swint was quick getting in and out of his drills and looked impressive both fundamentally and physically.
* Freshman defensive tackle Caden Story was also working in the drills. However, halfway through, he went to one knee due to the heat.
He sat out a few drills and rehydrated before coming back in.
* Bresee was wearing a brace on his left knee. The brace is only for cautionary reasons. Friday was Bresee's first day back at practice since last September.
Safety Tyler Venables was wearing a brace to protect his pectoral muscle. Freshman corner Jeadyn Lukus was wearing a brace over his right shoulder.
* Sheridan Jones and Fred Davis started almost every drill for the cornerbacks, while Jalyn Phillips and Andrew Mukuba started the drills at safety.
* Will Shipley, Kobe Pace, Antonio Williams, Venables, Will Taylor, Beaux Collins and Drew Swinney were returning punts at the start of practice. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2695135073970/clemson-s-first-day-of-fall-practice-defensive-observations | 2022-08-09T15:55:08Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2695135073970/clemson-s-first-day-of-fall-practice-defensive-observations | true | 2 |
NEW YORK (AP) — Cambodia’s ambassador to the United States said Monday that the transfer of 30 antiquities by U.S. law enforcement authorities to his country was a return of the “souls of our culture.”
Ambassador Keo Chhea spoke at a ceremony where a 10th century sculpture, “Skanda on a Peacock,” was among several works of art displayed as U.S. and Cambodian officials described the impact the return of 30 antiquities would have on the Southeast Asian nation.
“It’s like a returning of the souls of our culture back to our people,” Chhea said. “We’re very grateful.”
Chhea praised the cooperation between the U.S. and Cambodia to enable the return of the antiquities, but he also said they were battling a “global problem” that continues.
He added that “we need to commit and to continue our fight” to prevent further looting and stop the plundering of precious works of art by tools used by looters, which sometimes results in pieces of sculptures being chopped off.
Some sculptures, including one from the 10th century depicting the Hindu elephant god Ganesha that weighs more than 3 tons, were too heavy to be brought to the ceremony, according to U.S. Attorney Damian Williams.
The sculptures were looted during a long period of civil war and instability in Cambodia, which was ruled by the brutal Khmer Rouge regime in the 1970s.
Williams said organized looting networks — including looters affiliated with the Khmer Rouge — sent the statues to Douglas Latchford, a well-known antiquities dealer, who then sold them to Western dealers, collectors and institutions.
Latchford died before he could be extradited to the United States to face charges of wire fraud conspiracy and other crimes in Manhattan federal court, the prosecutor noted. The indictment eventually was dismissed due to his death.
Williams said some of the sandstone and bronze sculptures and artifacts were given up by their owners when U.S. authorities told them they were stolen. Others were claimed through court actions. They ranged from the Bronze Age to the 12th century.
“We commend individuals and institutions who decided to do the right thing, and after learning about the origin of the antiquities in their possession, decided to voluntarily return those pieces to their homeland,” Williams said. “We want to encourage anyone out there, who believes that they have illegally obtained Cambodian or other antiquities in their possession, to come forward.” | https://www.woodtv.com/news/national/ap-us-news/cambodian-ambassador-looted-artworks-are-souls-of-culture/ | 2022-08-09T15:55:18Z | https://www.woodtv.com/news/national/ap-us-news/cambodian-ambassador-looted-artworks-are-souls-of-culture/ | false | 34 |

There's no better way to welcome in your 30s than with a sturdy yet stylish tote bag. Coach makes some of the best like the Coach Zip Top Tote available at Coach Outlet.

You can even start with a blank canvas to create a unique photo book.
3. For the cook who wants to save space in the kitchen: Always Pan
The Instagram-famous Always Pan is wildly popular for a reason: This nearly five star-rated cast aluminum pan is essentially eight pieces of cookware in one. Made with ceramic nonstick coating, it functions as a fry pan, steamer, skillet, sauté pan, saucepan, spoon rest, spatula, wok and Dutch oven. Reviewed’s cooking writer considers it especially great for deep frying and says it's a good gift option for anyone who does a lot of stovetop cooking but is short on cabinet space.
4. For the one who needs a morning caffeine jolt: Keurig K-Cafe
Awarded our most versatile single-serve coffee maker, the Keurig K-Cafe Special Edition Single Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee is for anyone who needs a quick jolt of premium coffee in the morning.

6. For the one who’s obsessed with skincare: Laneige products
Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask Intense Hydration with Vitamin C is praised by Reviewed’s beauty writer who loved how supple and moisturized this left her lips feeling after every use and considers it a beauty staple. The leave-on lip mask is moisturizing and packed with antioxidants while you sleep.
7. For the one looking to upgrade their kitchen appliances: Cosori Air Fryer
We awarded the Cosori Air Fryer Max XL as our best-valued air fryer pick because this powerful kitchen gadget held two pounds of crinkle-cut fries and delivered them "well-browned and crispy" during testing. We also praised its nifty digital controls and useful preset settings, so your giftee can easily learn to use it—even if they're a cooking newbie. They might find that the inner basket is somewhat difficult to remove, but for its affordable price and large capacity, it's a valuable gift they'll be sure to use.
8. For the one who likes to make fitness fun: Bala Bangles
These trendy wearable Bala Bangle Weights are the perfect solution for anyone who gets bored working out at home and has been searching for creative ways to make their everyday regimen more fun. In our review, we gave the Bala Bangles major kudos on account of how comfortable they are to wear and effective they can be for adding an extra amount of external resistance to exercise.
9. For the one in need of these cult-favorite leggings: Spanx Faux Leather leggings
It's hard to find a pair of leggings that both fit great and turn heads as you walk down the street. Spanx Faux Leather Leggings combines the two with its ever-popular faux leather leggings. This closet staple features a glossy finish, great if your giftee plans to wear it on a night out. Many Nordstrom customers admired the flattering fit, with some repeatedly wearing them throughout the week. The site says that these leggings may run small, but most customers seemed to disagree—make sure to double-check your giftee's measurements before you hit "buy."
10. For the one who wants to double down on comfort: Free People Just Because onesie
Whether they're spending the day inside or just need something to slip on before running to the grocery store, they'll love this Free People Just Because onesie. They're available in 10 different colors, including Aphrodite and Blue Flame. Customers loved the comfy, slouchy fit and some even dressed it up with some wedges or boots to wear out on the town! If your giftee is looking for some stylish loungewear, this is the gift she needs.
11. For the one curious about their heritage: Ancestry DNA Kit
Turning 30 is a major milestone—it’s also one that could leave your giftee eager to discover new things about the past. An AncestryDNA Kit can help them kickstart that journey and wander deeper into their own ancestral history, from uncovering family secrets (psst, it really does happen!) to creating family trees, and more.
12. For the Netflix streamers: Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K
Whether they want to binge their favorite movie and TV shows on Hulu, Netflix, Amazon Prime or more, they'll want a sleek Fire TV Stick 4K Streaming Device to help them out. Compatible with all your favorite streaming services and including support for 4K (HDR10 and Dolby Vision and Dolby Vision sound), this budget-friendly gadget is a must-have. It's also compatible with Alexa and has an easy-to-use remote, so your giftee can log major binging hours, straight from their bed.
13. For the one who needs a pick-me-up: A bouquet from 1-800-Flowers
Flowers are one of those evergreen (pun intended) gifts that never hurts to send. If your giftee loves flowers, consider getting them the gift of this gorgeous Floral Embrace Bouquet for their birthday.
You can shop from the selection of seasonal or non-seasonal bouquets and pick out your favorites based on their color palettes and sizes at 1-800-Flowers. Schedule your delivery to have the flowers shipped directly to your giftee on their birthday.
14. For the one who appreciates a good blow-out: The Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer and Volumizer
Our beauty editor found this Revlon Hair Dryer to be a magical hair tool that cut her drying time in half. Billed as a “one-and-done” haircare solution, this gadget can help transform wet, frizz-prone locks into the perfect blow-out in half the time it would ordinarily take with an old blow dryer and brush—all without going to a salon.
15. For the one whose wardrobe is athleisure: lululemon leggings
A way to put a smile on your favorite leggings-wearing giftee is to gift them a pair of Lululemon’s much-celebrated Align High-Rise Pant leggings. These leggings are terrific for everything from yoga poses to lifting weights and so much else.
16. For the one who loves comfort: Nodpod Weighted Eye Mask
We all know how weighted blankets help you fall asleep faster and more comfortably. Now, imagine this for your eyes! If your giftee has migraines or simply needs something calming, then they will love you for giving a Nodpod Weighted Eye Mask. It contours your face, blocks out light and provides gentle pressure to relieve stress.
17. For the one who loves to stay organized: Happy Planner
Even if that about-to-be 30-year old in your life spends most of their time on their phone, a daily planner like this 2022 Stripes Fun & Grateful Planner can be a sweet way to help them relax, focus, and find their zen through organization.
As one of our favorite places to buy daily planners, Happy Planner’s adorable picks come thoughtfully decorated and a handy disc binding system, so it’s easy to add or remove pages. From tracking budget to staying on top of monthly goals, this planner can be a tender way to show support for that special someone throughout the year.
18. For the one who’s curious about smart tech but hasn’t tried it yet: Echo products
Amazon’s Echo line is a fabulous way to discover the wide, wonderful world of smart tech. If your giftee has been interested in exploring smart tech but hasn’t dived in fully yet, the Amazon Echo Dot, which is also one of the best smart speakers, could be a great gift option for them.
However, if you think your giftee might prefer a smart speaker with a screen, the Echo Show 5 is a steal at its current price point (less than $50) and can be a great way to play tunes, watch videos, follow along with recipes, and more. Our Reviewed editor found this to be perfectly sized and great sound for a small device.
19. For the one who hates vacuuming: eufy Robovac 11S
The eufy by AnkerBoostIQ RoboVac 11S is our favorite affordable robot vacuum because it’s so budget-friendly in the grand scope of robot vacuums, where many units can go for double, even triple the price of the 11S. But that’s not all: This zippy, whisper-quiet gadget offers incredible suction and in our tests, picked up around 11.6 grams of dirt per run, which far exceeded what most iRobot units could handle.
If your giftee is pushing 30 and still considers vacuuming one of the worst household chores ever, the 11S could be just the thing they’ve been needing to help maintain their floors between deeper cleaning sessions.
20. For the one who's always cold: BareFoot Dreams throw blankets
If your giftee loves to curl up on the couch with a hot cup of tea, get them a plush new throw blanket. Celebrity-approved brand Barefoot Dreams makes some of the best and you can snag one now in various colors and styles at Nordstrom.
There's a funky leopard print patterned In the Wild Throw Blanket, that's both stylish and incredibly soft. Nordstrom shoppers were filled with praises for it, calling this throw soft to touch and "worth every penny." For a simpler, more classic style gift the monotone CozyChic Throw Blanket—the perfect addition to any couch or lounging surface.
21. For the one who’s all about relaxation: Bath products
Feel like really treating someone? Consider grabbing a box of the best bath bombs we’ve tested here at Reviewed, the LifeAround2Angels Bath Bombs Gift Set, which comes with 12 fizzy, colorful and moisturizing bombs. Amazon reviewers swear they’re just as good as Lush bath bombs are but more affordable, and they’ll likely have your giftee eager to stay in the water until their fingers get all pruny.
22. For the one who’s serious about baking: KitchenAid stand mixer
The KitchenAid stand mixer is iconic and one of those aspirational gifts that are probably already high-up on your giftee’s wish list, but given the price tag, they might be sheepish about saying so. Here at Reviewed, it reigns supreme, and we consider the 5-quart version the best stand mixer money can buy. It’s easy to use, comes with an assortment of attachments (even a pasta maker), and is available in 47 different color varieties. Often imitated yet never truly duplicated, a genuine KitchenAid stand mixer can be wonderful for everything from baking bread to grinding up meat and so much more.
23. For the one who spends a lot of time in bed: Brooklinen sheets
These top-rated Brooklinen Luxe Core Sheet Set could be a terrific gift for someone's birthday this year. In testing, our experts adored these sheets, which are designed to fit mattresses up to 15 inches deep and are made from 100% cotton with a soft sateen weave.
24. For the one who loves plants—even if they kill them: Real or artificial plants
Does your giftee have a green thumb or hopes to cultivate it? The Sill is one of the best plant delivery services we’ve ever tried because of its impressive inventory of cute plants and quick delivery times. The ZZ Plant is a great gift option because it’s not too difficult to care for. Our Reviewed editor found the plants to be a welcome addition to her living room that earned tons of compliments.
25. For the one who loves smelling good: Bastide perfume
Mark a 30th birthday with a signature scent. Bastide Eau De Toilette is made in France and will transport you to Provence with just one sniff. Pink peony, olive leaf and cashmere woods accumulated together to give a truly divine scent that your giftee will love.
26. For the one who loves to cook: Staub round cocotte
The Staub Cast Iron Round Cocotte was awarded our best Dutch oven for its solid, sturdy and easy-to-clean design. It was great at braising both meat and veggies and simmering stews. Though slightly on the heavier side, its large sautéeing area and evenness of cooking make it the perfect gift for your foodie friends.
27. For the one who needs to hydrate more: Hydro Flask
The Hydro Flask Wide Mouth Bottle with Flex Cap is among one of the best water bottles we’ve ever tested here at Reviewed. Portable, durable, and exemplary in its ability to keep water cold for up to 24 hours, the classic 32-ounce version is the most perfect water bottle I've ever used, especially if you grab one with a straw lid. Whether your giftee is planning a lot of hikes this summer or just needs a new water bottle to replace the one they’ve been using for years, Hydro Flask lives up to the hype and makes a fab present.
28. For the one who wants to see what the fuss is about: Birkenstocks
If your giftee has never experienced the near-heavenly sensation of having their feet molded into the cloud-like soles of a pair of Birkenstocks before, do them a favor and gift them these Arizona Soft Footbed Sandals. You’ll probably win at gift-giving forever because of it.
29. For the photographer: Instax Camera
This Fujifilm Instax Mini 40 Instant Camera with a retro look will capture the best memories. It's compact, so your giftee can bring it anywhere they want. Whether they're going on a scenic trip or are simply hanging out with friends at home, this camera is sure to make an appearance every time.
30. For the artsy one: Crafts 4 All Acrylic Paint Set
This top-rated Crafts 4 All Acrylic Paint Set for Kids and Adults carries 24 art items including various acrylic paints and paintbrushes. More than 35,150 Amazon shoppers also gave this product a 4.7-star rating for its wide range of high-quality colors. Whether your giftee loves to paint on canvases, fabric or more, they'll love this artistic set. Since each paint also comes in a tube it should make for easy mixing and low waste, according to shoppers.

From the original Dracula to Twilight, love for vampire stories seems as undying as the monsters themselves. Though there are many renditions of our chronically anemic friends, each with their own rules, there is something very alluring about them. Maybe it is their mysterious poise or maybe their savagery. Maybe we all enjoy their dramatic struggle between humanity and wild animal hunger. Or maybe we just really like that they are super strong and fast, and they always seem to be spilling blood everywhere. Regardless of your favorite vampire trope, you are bound to like at least a game or two on this list of ten addicting vampire games.
#12 Vampire: The Masquerade – Coteries of New York
Immortality, youth, power and freedom. The joys of vampirism are many. However, just like any society, there are a plethora of rules to follow and nuances to navigate. This makes for a minefield of social interaction. Especially when you consider that almost every being you engage with is an immensely dangerous, blood-thirsty monster. Vampire: The Masquerade – Coteries of New York introduces players to this clandestine world as they struggle to survive and find their place in this quagmire of rules and ruthlessness. The game is a visual novel that sees you pick your character from three premade variants. It’s an engaging and thrilling story that gradually introduces players to the sophistication required to make it as a blood sucker of some repute.
#11 Immortal Realms: Vampire Wars
It’s time to reassert your control over your human-infested principality. Harvest blood for sustenance, raise and rally powerful armies as you conquer any foes that would see you burn. Immortal Realms: Vampire Wars is a visually striking game. The cutscene artwork and engaging voice acting are enthralling and make this top-down strategy game an enticing ride. In-game, you’d be hard pressed to find an aspect that doesn’t look wonderfully detailed or gorgeous. The gameplay is fun and smooth with great little quips from your multitude of troops. This is an immensely immersive game that establishes itself as an engaging strategy game.
#10 Code Vein
If you like vampires with big weapons fighting monsters, Code Vein is right up your alley. Set in a post-apocalyptic future, the world is overrun with monsters. The Revenants were once humans but were brought back from the dead using a parasitic technology. They were created to fight the monsters with their unique powers, and they can only be killed is if their hearts are destroyed. Downside: their need human blood to keep going, and unfortunately, the supply is shrinking. Revenants without enough human blood to consume turn into the Lost, rapid vampires in a frenzy of destruction.
The story is complex, but the art is lovely. It’s an open world action RPG, so you can customize your character, choosing different strengths and unique abilities. Though most of the trailers show the striking fight scenes, much of the game is spent exploring the city of Vein while you gather clues to the building mystery of where the miasma surrounding the city is coming from. That being said, you and your AI companion, who you also get to customize, will have plenty of chances to fight things! Fans of Dark Souls may like this one.
#9 Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
Admittedly, this game has been grandfathered into the list. Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is a Metroidvania-style game produced by Koji Igarashi, the producer of the Castlevania games. Considered a spiritual successor because of the 2.5D and similar themes. The story takes place during the Industrial Revolution in England, where the Alchemy Guild decided to scare their clients into submission. They bound demonic shards to several individuals, giving them the power to summon demons and perform magic. However, it all went terribly wrong. All but one of the Shardbinders, Gebel, is killed as a sacrifice to the demons in the summoning. He seeks revenge by holing up in his castle and summoning demons to punish the world. Our protagonist, a Shardbinder named Miriam who missed the initial sacrifice due to a Sleeping Beauty-style sleep, is woken from her spell and tasked with defeating Gebel.
In this game, you would move through the enormous castle like a platform game. Keeping your health and mana bars in check, you will open chests, fight monsters, gather weapons, and gather shards that will give you different powers. All the while, you will be working towards defeating Gebel, a former friend now turned possessed with revenge. The game received great reviews from fans of the Castlevania games, so vampire fans are sure to love this one too despite the lack of fangs.
#8 The Elder Scrolls Online
The Elder Scrolls Online may not be about vampires, but it has an exciting feature: you can choose to become one! In this MMORPG, you can choose from ten races and six classes to customize your fantasy character on the continent of Tamriel. Like most MMORPGs, the game is all about exploring the world that is based on The Elder Scrolls series, though the plot is not directly related. You can complete quests and fight battles, shop for armer, learn skills like Alchemy or Blacksmithing.
On top of your class and race, you can then seek out the vampire lifestyle. There are three ways that you can do it. You can find another vampire player to bite and infect you with vampirism, become infected by taking hits from a Bloodfiend found naturally in certain areas of the continent, or you can do it the easy way and buy vampirism in the crown store. However you do it, you unlock a specific skill tree when you join the ranks of the undead. There may be some downsides, especially at first, but hey, you would have really cool eyes.
#7 BloodRayne Betrayal: Fresh Bites
In this 2D platform-style game, you play as Rayne, a dhampir who hates vampires with a passion. She has been recruited by the Brimstone Society, a vampire hunting group, to infiltrate a castle ball. Because of her half vampire, half human lineage, she has super speed, strength, and agility, which she uses to hop over traps and fight monsters. She is also equipped with arm blades and a handgun. There really aren’t any skill or weapon upgrades to achieve in this game. Instead, you fight your way through rooms of enemies while avoiding obstacles like spike pits. If you’re looking for a straight-forward hack and slash gameplay, BloodRayne Betrayal: Fresh Bites is for you.
#6 Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong
If you’re in the mood for a narrative-driven RPG, then Vampire: Masquerade – Swansong is worth a try. In a modern version of Boston, Massachusetts, a secret organization of vampires needs to investigate a massive attack against their leaders. As the player, you will switch between three different vampires, each from different clans and with different abilities. Utilizing each vampire’s specific skill to accomplish tasks will allow you to search for clues to solve the murder. Along the way, you will face moral choices that don’t have an easy answer. Your choices and how you interacted with other characters in the game will help determine the ending. The most important part of the mission though is to stay under the radar. When you’re surrounded by humans most of the time, it’s hard to keep your identity as a vampire under wraps. The Masquerade is the practice of staying hidden from humans because they far outnumber vampires.
#5 The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – Dawnguard
This DLC for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim introduces gamers to a piece of vampire lore. Early in the game, your character is invited to vampire ruins on a quest. Once there, you will discover a vampire trapped inside a statue. Taking her back to her Vampire Lord father is when you get an important choice: become a Vampire Lord yourself or return safely to the vampire hunters known as the Dawnguard. If you join the Dawnguard, you will get the opportunity to turn into a werewolf and hunt vampires. Your mission will be to kill Harkon, the main vampire threat of the game. However, if you choose to become a vampire instead, you will be bitten by Harkon and go on a quest from him before eventually killing him and taking his place. There are plenty of perks and weapons to gain with the DLC. Plus, there are new maps to explore and quests to embark on.
#4 The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing is an action RPG full of monsters, magic, and mad scientists. Set in the fictional, Gothic city of Borgova, you play the son of legendary vampire hunter Abraham Van Helsing. Your mission is to save Borgova from the monsters, many of which are enhanced with weird science. You won’t be alone though. Katarina is your lovely ghost companion whose skills and powers you can tailor. While you’re at it, you can also customize your skills in a detailed menu. Fight hordes of monsters in various settings that feel like they came from Bram Stoker’s Dracula. From the dark woods and villages on the outskirts of town to the soot-covered city and labs of mad scientists, there is plenty to explore in this game. Fans of the legendary vampire hunter might want to give this one a try.
#3 BloodRayne: ReVamped
BloodRayne: ReVamped is an action-adventure hack and slash game that tells the story of our dhampir heroine’s first missions for the Brimstone Society. The game, which begins in 1933, has three acts, or missions, to play through. The first act takes place in Morton, Louisiana. Rayne investigates an unidentified disease for her first mission. The second act takes her on a mission to Argentina where Rayne has to keep an ancient occult artifact from falling into Nazi hands. Finally, the third act takes her to a castle in Germany as she tries to kill the remaining officers of an occult Nazi organization. As a dhampir, Rayne uses her super strength and speed to kill her way through the levels. In this game, she can dual-wield weapons, including firearms dropped by her enemies. She can also complete other small tasks at each level, but the main joy is killing any vampire that crosses her path.
#2 Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is a beloved action role-playing game. Play as Alucard, Dracula’s son, on, well, several missions. The first mission is to explore Dracula’s castle to find an entity named Shaft as he possesses a returning character from the previous Castlevania game. You have to find an object that lets you see Shaft, but it is also just encouraged to explore. There is a map that updates with new sections as you enter new parts of the castle. You’re also able to gather weapons and health points while wondering. Once you locate and defeat Shaft, the castle turns upside down. The new mission is to defeat various bosses to collect pieces of Dracula. Though the game is mostly non-linear, you do have to complete certain tasks or be able to move on. After all of the pieces of Dracula are gathered, he comes back to life. You have to defeat Dracula to win the game. This is a classic and worth it for vampire lovers.
#1 Vampyr
What would you do if you woke up in a mass grave as a vampire? In Vampyr, you get to play around with that scenario. You play Jonathon Reid, a doctor just returning to London from the Great War in 1918. He wakes up in a mass grave as a vampire and accidentally kills his sister as she searches for his body. From this point in the story on, you have some decisions to make in this action RPG game. Set in London, Jonathon resumes his cover as a doctor. It’s a semi-open world format with London split into four parts to explore.
There are 60 citizens to stalk, talk to, investigate, and feed on. It’s completely possible to not kill any civilians for the whole game, but it is also much more difficult. Feeding on humans must be strategic so that your cover can be maintained. You also have to follow some of the classic rules of being a vampire. For example, Jonathon has to be invited inside to get into a person’s home. Four possible endings are dependent on how you interact with them. Being the super nice vampire is less fun than being a little bad in this game though. Killing and feeding on humans can give you abilities, such as boiling the blood of your enemies. The ability to wrestle with good and evil is a cool concept in a vampire game, and there are tons of boss battles to fight and skills to gain. | https://gameranx.com/features/id/321992/article/10-vampire-games-too-addicting-to-put-down/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=10-vampire-games-too-addicting-to-put-down | 2022-08-09T16:10:06Z | https://gameranx.com/features/id/321992/article/10-vampire-games-too-addicting-to-put-down/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=10-vampire-games-too-addicting-to-put-down | false | 1 |
OVO Sound signees dvsn sparked some dialogue the other week when they unveiled their single, "If I Get Caught." The song samples Jay-Z, who offered a bold co-sign for the record, but there have been many people who've shared their criticisms of the song. Still, there are just as many who feel similarly to Jay-Z.
This week, Tiny and Kandi Burruss came through with their own cover of the single dubbed "If U Get Caught." The two spin "If I Get Caught" to provide a woman's perspective on the record.
"We gotta show love to @dvsn for doing their thang with their new song “IfIGotCaught” It’s such a dope song, it made @Kandi and I want to write a female version, just to talk a lil [poop emoji] for the ladies!#IFUGetCaught," Tiny said on Instagram.
Check the song below and sound off with your thought in the comments.

A pair of Scottish thrill-seekers dressed in traditional kilts have been filmed base jumping from the top of the William Wallace Monument.
The two men, named Andy and Josh, can be seen leaping from the 220ft tower that gives panoramic views of Stirling and beyond.
After releasing their parachutes, they safely float to the ground, landing in a small park below.
Mountain Man BASE, who conducted the jump, confirmed that the two professional jumpers were “on the right side of the law” and did everything legally.

K-9 officer dies in car crash, Florida police confirm
NICEVILLE, Fla. (Gray News) – A K-9 officer in Florida died in a car accident Sunday evening.
The Niceville Police Department confirmed the death of K-9 Blue in a statement.
Blue’s handler, Sgt. Phillip Ritcheson, was taken to the Fort Walton Beach Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Deputies with the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office escorted the fallen K-9′s body to Bluewater Bay Animal Hospital following the accident. Deputies laid an American flag over Blue’s body and carried him inside the animal hospital while other deputies lined the parking lot and saluted Blue.
In a Facebook post, the sheriff’s office said carrying the fallen K9 officer was “an honor” and was a show of “love, honor, and respect for his service to the community.”
“We are so incredibly thankful his handler is going to be okay – but we know his heart is heavy, as is ours – with the loss of his devoted partner,” the sheriff’s office wrote in the post.
The Niceville Police Department thanked the sheriff’s office for their commitment to honoring Blue.
Florida Highway Patrol is investigating the accident. Officials have not yet provided further details on the crash.
Niceville is located just north of Destin and Fort Walton Beach in the Florida Panhandle.

There are a huge number of brands producing dash cams these days, some of whom are virtual unknowns and others who are major players in the world of technology.
Garmin is one of the latter. It produces everything from fitness trackers to nautical sonar devices, but it’s also well-known for its in-car sat nav systems and, more recently for its dash cams.
The creatively named Garmin Dash Cam 57, priced at £149.99, sits in the middle of the brand’s current line-up, above the lower spec and lower-resolution Mini 2 and 47 but below the 67 with its wider-angle lens and the twin-camera Tandem.
Design and installation
Despite differing features, most of Garmin’s dash cams have almost identical designs and the 57 is a very neat, simple unit that feels far more solid than some from lesser-known brands.
Unlike a lot of other units which are long lozenge shaped affairs, the Garmin is almost square but, at roughly half the size of a deck of cards, it’s still impressively compact, especially since it houses a two-inch screen. Fitting it out of sight behind a rearview mirror should prove easy, especially thanks to the incredibly compact magnetic swivel mount which takes up virtually no space but offers plenty of adjustment.
Features
Like most modern dash cams, the Garmin 57 has an accompanying smartphone app that means you can view footage and adjust settings via your mobile rather than the on-board buttons and screen. The app is fairly easy to install and connect to the camera, although I experienced a few connectivity issues during my time testing.
You can also download footage from the camera’s microSD card (sold separately) to your phone and there is an option to store clips in the cloud via the Garmin Vault, from where you can share them with others.
An impact-activated parking mode is among the unit’s features, which can be upgraded to a constant live view with the optional Constant Power kit that plugs into your car’s OBD-II port. Also included are voice control, so you can lock a recording without taking your hands off the wheel, and driver assist systems including forward collision alert and lane departure warning but without very precise calibration these quickly become a burden rather than a help.
Image quality
The Garmin 57’s camera sits in the dash cam middle ground, recording at 1440p resolution, up to 60 frames per second and using a 140-degree field of vision lens.
Footage captured in daylight is suitably sharp and certainly clear enough for use as evidence should you need to provide it to insurers or police. Even with an HDR mode it doesn’t handle high-contrast scenes quite as well as some - the Thinkware F200, for example - but important elements such as number plates are easily visible. At 1440p the camera records at 30 frames per second which provides smooth footage but for even smoother recording you can drop the resolution to 1080p and crank the frame rate up to 60fps.
Unlike some brands which tout special night modes, Garmin doesn’t make much of the 57’s low-light performance. That’s fair enough as it can’t match systems with dedicated low-light modes. Images are fairly grainy and details such as registration numbers harder to make out. For a dedicated night mode, you’ll need to step up to the more expensive 67.
Verdict
There are a lot of dash cams on the market at the same £150 mark as the Garmin 57. Some, such as the MioFive, offer sharper 4K images at the expense of other features, while others sacrifice image quality in favour of extra functions or the ability to add more cameras. The Garmin 57 sits neatly in the middle ground with its smart design, solid construction and good daylight footage. It is let down, however, by its poor low-light performance and the inability to link a rear camera, even as an option. | https://www.hemeltoday.co.uk/lifestyle/cars/garmin-dash-cam-57-review-price-features-design-and-image-quality-3790740 | 2022-08-09T16:21:55Z | https://www.hemeltoday.co.uk/lifestyle/cars/garmin-dash-cam-57-review-price-features-design-and-image-quality-3790740 | true | 21 |

South Asian American eatery Tailor is making its highly anticipated return this week at its new Germantown location.
Led by Vivek Surti and Heather Southerland, Tailor will still embrace its dinner party-inspired concept characterized by multicourse meals and a social environment.
This conversational aspect as well as the menu were born from Surti’s upbringing as a first-generation American whose family hails from India. A wide variety of grilled bites, snacks and Indian breads will be available and made fresh in the new in-house kitchen.
The building’s upgraded interior design pays tribute to its predecessor. The original Tailor butcher block countertop and the crystal chandelier from Surti’s childhood home have been brought along.

The details will be accompanied by gold-stitched tiles, a classic Gujarati rounded-top arch across the bar cabinetry and extending into the front of the dining room, six chandeliers spread throughout the establishment and unique fabrics hanging from the walls. The features were envisioned by architecture firm Pfeffer Torode.
A summer menu will be introduced for the Aug. 11 grand opening. The menu includes sabudana vada made with tapioca and potato fritters, tomato chutney and peanut, lamb alongside tartare, tamarind, mint, black chickpea, crispy rice and grapefruit and peach lassi cake.
Reservations can be made for two dinner time slots beginning at 6 p.m. and 8:30 p.m.
Located at 620 Taylor St., Tailor will be open four nights a week from Thursday through Sunday. | https://www.tennessean.com/story/money/industries/2022/08/09/tailor-brings-south-asian-cuisine-nashvilles-germantown/10202364002/ | 2022-08-09T16:23:20Z | https://www.tennessean.com/story/money/industries/2022/08/09/tailor-brings-south-asian-cuisine-nashvilles-germantown/10202364002/ | false | 2 |
