Hit new outdoor public market provides evening fun each week in East San Jose
An outdoor public market in East San Jose that is only about a month old has already become a big hit. The Tully Night Market happens on Wednesday night near the Tully Road Ballfields and the public library branch. It features food trucks, art, music, and vendor booths. It was started by District 7 Councilmember Maya Esparza, who got funding for the market in last year’s budget. She had the goal of bringing community members together each week for a night of fun in an area of San Jose that often gets overlooked. “The Tully Library and ballfields have been underutilized as a whole, and that area also serves as this nexus of really underserved communities,” Esparza told San José Spotlight.

Bringing fire indoors is something many people want during winter. In addition to warming the environment, fire creates a unique sensation that goes back to the beginnings of human habitation, leading us to a certain emotional comfort. Before, a chimney and a stock of firewood were needed to guarantee this, nowadays there are ecological fireplaces, which can be built-in or portable: a great choice for those who live in apartments or do not like the smoke generated by the fire.
The ecological fireplace gets its name because instead of using wood, it uses ethyl alcohol as fuel to produce the flames - renewable and lower in carbon dioxide emissions, compared to the use of firewood.
It usually consists of a burner - the combustion chamber, where the fuel is placed - and which will define the heating capacity and intensity of the fire. The more powerful the combustion chamber, the more it will heat up a room. Therefore, it is worth consulting an expert to ensure that the fireplace meets your requirements before buying it.
As mentioned before, one of the main advantages is that the ecological fireplace does not smoke, making it easier to use indoors and eliminating the concern of designing an exhaust system to ensure cleaner air. Therefore, the fireplace can become a more versatile element in the house or apartment: used to punctuate or divide environments and receive different materials around its perimeter for greater prominence.
In addition, it can be purchased or designed as a portable model, and can accompany you in different rooms of the home. In a quick survey, we can see that the prices of ecological fireplaces available on the market range from 200 to 800 BRL on average, an affordable investment compared to traditional fireplaces and that can add a lot of value to your environment. | https://www.archdaily.com/987019/what-are-ecological-fireplaces-and-how-do-they-work | 2022-08-13T10:18:28Z | https://www.archdaily.com/987019/what-are-ecological-fireplaces-and-how-do-they-work | true | 1 |

To check incidents of collision of planes with birds and other animals at airports across India, aviation regulator DGCA on Saturday issued guidelines for them that included carrying out routine patrols in random patterns and informing pilots whenever there is any wildlife activity.
There have been various incidents of bird hits during the last few weeks. On August 4, Go First's flight to Chandigarh returned to Ahmedabad on Thursday after suffering a bird hit.
On June 19, an engine on a SpiceJet Delhi-bound aircraft carrying 185 passengers caught fire soon after it took off from the Patna airport and the plane made an emergency landing minutes later. The engine malfunctioned because of a bird hit.
The regulator stated in its Saturday circular that all airport operators are requested to review their wildlife hazard management programme to identify the gaps and ensure its strict implementation in and in the vicinity of an aerodrome.
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) asked the airports to carry out a wildlife risk assessment and rank them according to the risk posed to aircraft.
The airports must have a procedure to monitor and record wildlife movement data, it said.
The airports should also have a procedure to notify pilots ''in response to any significant wildlife concentration or activity both on and in the vicinity of the airport'', it mentioned.
Routine patrolling is the core of the wildlife hazard management programme, it said.
The patrols should be carried out in random patterns rather than a regular route so that wildlife do not learn or become accustomed to the timing of patrols, it mentioned.
''Aerodrome operators are directed to forward monthly action taken report on the implementation of wildlife hazard management programme and also provide wildlife strike data...by 7th of every month,'' it noted.

How Abercrombie, Victoria’s Secret and Vitamin Shoppe use smell to get you to spend more
By Nathaniel Meyersohn, CNN Business
Have you ever stepped into an Abercrombie, Victoria’s Secret, Vitamin Shoppe or another store and wondered: “What’s that smell?”
Scent is a subtle, often underrated, component of companies’ attempts to entice customers and get them to linger around longer. These retail chains and other companies, including restaurants, fast-food chains, airlines, and hotels have put a lot of effort (and smelling tests) into perfecting their signature aromas.
Most retailers’ marketing tactics target our vision — think logos, commercials and other symbols. Brands also try to stimulate us with upbeat music or relaxing sounds.
But targeting our noses can be an even more powerful tool for brands, say marketing gurus. An entire industry, known as scent marketing or olfactory branding, is dedicated to developing custom fragrances.
ScentAir, for example, is one of the largest sellers of diffusers to leading brands. The company designs nine “fragrance experiences” ranging from “lux and sophisticated” to “passionate and sensual.” On the flip side, companies also try to mask and neutralize foul stenches from bathrooms, kitchens, animals, sweat and other odors.
Caroline Fabrigas, the CEO of Scent Marketing, creates and maintains scents for companies such as North Face, Aeropostale and others. She conducts “sniffing sessions” with company representatives to find the right notes for their environments.
“We try to create identifiable scents specific to the brands,” she said.
The power of smell
Our sense of smell runs straight to our limbic system, the region in our brain that regulates emotions and memory.
Deploying a pleasant fragrance in stores can help a brand stand out in a crowded market and influence customers’ feelings about it, said Laurence Minsky, a professor in the communication department at Columbia College Chicago who studies branding. It can also cue up childhood memories.
“Retailers are selling an experience. They’re sending signals or cues about how they want to be perceived,” Minsky said. “It’s limited to do it just on visuals.”
The presence of a pleasant scent in stores resulted in a 3% sales increase compared to stores without one, found a study published in the Journal of Marketing in 2019.
And beyond just being pleasant, the specifics of scent matter. Another study published in the Journal of Retailing in 2013 found that consumers spent more and purchased more items in stores with a simple orange or lemon scent than in stores with complex scents — lemon-basil or basil-orange with green tea — as well as stores with no scent at all.
The opportunity to create an ambiance while increasing sales has led retailers and other businesses to experiment with different scents and create their own singular olfactory experiences.
Signature scents
Brands such as Play-Doh and Johnson & Johnson baby powder were some of the first to use scent as a marketing tool. Play-Doh even successfully trademarked its signature musky, vanilla-like fragrance in 2018.
At Abercrombie, the smell you’re familiar with is now a “white bergamot” fragrance, which replaced the brand’s trademark “Fierce” musky scent a few years ago.
Victoria’s Secret, which has had its own signature fragrance line for decades, changes its store scent when one of its new fragrances launches, a spokesperson said. Right now, Victoria’s Secret’s recently-launched “Bare” fragrance, a woody floral scent with notes of Australian sandalwood, fills the air.
At Vitamin Shoppe, a lavender scent wafts through the air. Stores use air diffusers to pump out lavender essential oils, the company’s top-selling essential oil that promotes “calm and relaxation,” said a spokesperson. During the holidays, stores switch to a peppermint essential oil.
Meanwhile, Yankee Candle uses several forms of scents in different areas of the store, including candles, wax melts, and air fresheners to get customers to explore various sections, according to James Jordan, a senior manager of home fragrance global training at Newell Brands, which owns the brand.
Since the 1990s, Singapore Airlines has also been using its own fragrance. Flight attendants wear it as perfume, it’s blended into hot towels served before takeoff and it wafts through the cabin during the flight. Hotels such as Hyatt, Westin and others pump smells and aromas into their lobbies, while many supermarkets moved their bakeries from the back of the store to the front, said Martin Lindstrom, a consumer branding expert.
Then there are food chains that have used smells to try to make customers hungrier, nudging them to buy more.
Cinnabon places ovens filled with warm cinnamon rolls near the front of its stores. Panera Bread used to make its bread in the evening but shifted to daytime so that its stores smell more like bakeries, the Wall Street Journal has reported.
But stores must strike a delicate balance when they engineer their smells to avoid overwhelming customers. Subway, for example, has been criticized by some customers for an unpleasant bread smell in stores.
When Starbucks introduced breakfast sandwiches in 2008, it found the smell of sandwiches cooking in the oven was overpowering stores’ coffee aroma.
And Abercrombie was perhaps best known for spraying its Fierce cologne around stores in the mid-2000s. But the company dialed back its signature scent as its stores struggled to attract customers and eventually replaced it entirely. One study found that Abercrombie’s scent was making customers anxious.
Scent is most effective when it’s subliminal, Lindstrom said. “When smells scream at you, it doesn’t work.”

Delhi on Saturday reported its fifth monkeypox case as a 22-year-old African woman tested positive for the infection. The woman had travelled to Nigeria a month ago.
She was admitted to LNJP Hospital two days ago and her reports came out on Friday night, confirming that she was positive.
She is the second woman in the national capital to contract the infection. Four persons, including two women, are admitted to the LNJP Hospital with monkeypox while one patient was discharged from the facility.
4 cases of monkeypox in Delhi so far
The first patient to test positive for the virus was a 34-year-old man, a resident of West Delhi. He had tested positive for the virus last month.
The second case was a 35-year-old Nigerian man living in Delhi, with no recent foreign travel history. He had blisters and fever for five days before the virus.
Delhi reported its third case of the virus after another Nigerian man tested positive for monkeypox on Tuesday. The man was admitted to the Delhi government-run LNJP Hospital.
The fourth case was reported after a 31-year-old Nigerian woman tested positive for the virus. She is the first woman in the country to test positive for monkeypox which manifests itself with fever, skin lesions and swollen lymph nodes. | https://www.indiatvnews.com/news/india/delhi-monkeypox-5th-case-african-woman-with-travel-history-tests-positive-latest-updates-2022-08-13-799696 | 2022-08-13T10:52:19Z | https://www.indiatvnews.com/news/india/delhi-monkeypox-5th-case-african-woman-with-travel-history-tests-positive-latest-updates-2022-08-13-799696 | false | 1 |
With all the talk of the Penrith powerhouse and Latrell Mitchell’s resurgent Rabbitohs, where do the Cronulla Sharks fit in the premiership picture?
Only the bravest of punters would back against them finishing in the top two given their run home, which has started with a 36-12 win over the Wests Tigers at Scully Park in Tamworth on Saturday night.
Days after Cameron Munster’s newfound freedom at fullback revived Melbourne’s title credentials, the Sharks edge closer to second – even without some of their biggest names – after finishing ninth last year.
The Sharks now sit third to all but secure a second chance come the finals series in September, but the win came at a cost. Toby Rudolf will undergo scans on a knee injury that early reports suggest could keep him out for up to six weeks.
Cronulla will close out their campaign with games against bottom eight sides Manly, Canterbury and Newcastle. North Queensland, which is the other side jostling for second, face the Warriors, South Sydney and Penrith.
A top-two finish guarantees the Sharks a home ground advantage in week one of the finals. Cronulla could be forced to play at the rebuilt Allianz Stadium amid concerns that PointsBet Stadium does not meet the standards required to host NRL finals.
“We haven’t so much talked about who is in what position. What we’ve started talking about is the opportunity that has presented itself and what’s in front of us,” Sharks coach Craig Fitzgibbon said.
“We’re constantly improving, we’re trying to make sure irrespective of opponent, we give the best account of ourselves. It’s time to make sure we look like that first half for the rest of the year.
“It’s hard to ignore there’s a possibility of [finishing in the top two], but we can’t control the other fixtures. We’ve just got to control our own.”
The Sharks, like so many, will have felt the emotion of the week. The armbands wrapped around their sleeves were for the late Paul Green, who played 95 games for Cronulla from 1994 to 1998.
His halves partner so often during that stint was Adam Dykes, whose son Kade crossed for the first try of his NRL career on this night in Tamworth.
Dykes became a third generation Shark when he made his first-grade debut a week ago, following in the footsteps of his father Adam and grandfather John Dykes, who was a back-rower of the 1970s.
Now the 20-year-old is showing glimpses of why Wayne Bennett’s Dolphins and the Canterbury Bulldogs sought his signature, joining Matt Ikuvalu on the score sheet, himself a replacement for injured centre Siosifa Talakai.
Even without resurgent five-eighth Matt Moylan, Cronulla’s attack flourished. The Tigers had few answers to repel the first-half onslaught conducted by Nicho Hynes, who has been one of the buys of the year at halfback having enjoyed career-best form at fullback for Melbourne last year.
When you’re talking Cronulla’s best buys, you have to talk about Cam McInnes. He plays with a stirring intensity that has made him an instant fan favourite in the shire. His work ethic is relentless, whether it’s a Saturday night in Tamworth or a Tuesday on the training track.
Interim coach Brett Kimmorley’s Tigers side remains just one win off the bottom of the table. But this week has put that struggle in perspective for Tigers captain James Tamou, who played under Green at the Cowboys.
“Quite a weight with what’s happened. Noddy [Kimmorley], the boys, the Tigers organisation made sure I was alright. It’s just sad, a sad time,” Tamou said.
“The coaches came together and we had a conversation about it. That took a bit of weight off. It’s just a scary thing to think about, when someone can be so high on life with everything going on, everything they’ve achieved, family, and then to be fighting some demons. It’s just a scary thing.
“I know the NRL are taking the right steps to make sure people can seek help.”

Pakistan management may have to give rest to Shaheen Afridi for multiple ODIs to keep him fresh and injury-free ahead of the Asia Cup and T20 World Cup campaigns. Pakistan skipper Babar Azam answered a number of questions regarding his side before their tour to the Netherlands.
“There are concerns over Shaheen’s fitness. We are taking him along because the doctor and the physio are travelling with the team, so he can be looked after well. We are thinking from a long-term perspective. There is the Asia Cup and the World Cup as well, he said.
“We’re looking long-term at his fitness and health. We want him to play a game against the Netherlands if he’s fit and be ready for the Asia Cup,” the Pakistan captain added.
Afridi had missed Pakistan’s second Test against Sri Lanka after suffering an injury in the first one.
For the Asia Cup and the tour of the Netherlands, selectors left out Hasan Ali and they preferred Naseem Shah, Shahnawaz Dahani, Haris Rauf, and Mohammad Wasim. Babar said that Hasan Ali has the opportunity to gain his form back.

“Our fast-bowling bench strength is excellent. They’ve now got an opportunity to showcase their skills. This is how you expand your pool.
“Yes, he’s (Ali) not in form, but it’s not like he has to prove anything. Domestic cricket is coming up. He’ll play that and make a strong comeback hopefully.”
Pakistan have been performing brilliantly in T20I cricket as they outclassed India by ten wickets in the 2021 T20 World Cup.
Babar confessed, “We have eleven trump cards. Each of them can be a matchwinner on their day. I have faith in every one of them, whether batters or bowlers.
“The team has been announced after discussions with everyone. We met with the coach and chief selector and did what was best for Pakistan. There are matches immediately after the Netherlands, so it’s unlikely there will be time for changes.”
Pakistan will start its stint on August 16 against the Netherlands and skipper Babar and his team are looking to make the most out of it.

“If things go badly after we field young players, we’ll cop criticism then, too. Everyone won’t be happy with our decisions, but we have to do what’s best for Pakistan cricket”, he signed off.

Less than two months ago, the Supreme Court overturned its most egregious ruling in Roe v. Wade placing the issue of abortion with each state legislature.
Democrats had not been this incensed since President Lincoln freed their slaves and the public schools were desegregated. Their rage spilled over to a volunteer pregnancy center in Oregon that was firebombed and defaced with graffiti declaring: “If abortions aren’t safe, then neither are you.” Other pregnancy sanctuaries in Wisconsin. New York and Illinois were targets, too.
Corporate America weighed in with Dick’s Sporting Goods promising to fly pregnant employees to states that provide abortion if they live in a state that restricts it. Some bizarre ironies write themselves.
Even Supreme Court justices face the pro-abortion wrath. Proving that provided you do not share and celebrate the left’s ideology, you are a horrible racist, vile homophobic, and a disgusting misogynist, who must be severely punished and cancelled.
The first state to put abortion to a referendum was Kansas. The result was a stunning victory for pro-aborts with an overwhelmingly 59% to 41% margin that will maintain their state abortion law.
The question: As Kansas goes, so does America?
Democrats are touting the Kansas backlash vote to bring them victory in November’s pivotal midterm elections that would maintain their control of Congress. Forget rising inflation, energy costs and crime, only three of a plethora of national ills. Similar reasoning failed Democrats when Texas’s fetal heartbeat law did not help them earlier this year in Virginia and New Jersey.
Democrats are so enamored with abortion that then New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo had the Empire State Building lit up to celebrate the passage of the most extreme abortion law in the country.
The left denies the existence of morality rejecting any law upholding a child’s life in the womb. Abortion is sacrosanct and the highest ritual of secular relativism. Democrats claim to be for the little guy, yet their sweeping embrace of unconstrained abortion serves as a death sentence upon millions of the most innocent and vulnerable among us.
Some cities are going extreme on abortion by outright rebuking their state governments. In Austin Texas, the city council approved legislation titled: Guarding the Right to Abortion Care for Everyone, known as the GRACE Act. You can’t make this stuff up. To piggyback off that perhaps outlawing all child births in 2023 will assuage Congressional Democrats’ zealotry.
Nancy Pelosi, who from a side profile, resembles the child catcher in the film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang should introduce: The Childless Care Act 2023. It was Sir Robert Helpmann whose role in that film earned him being named one of the “50 Most Vile Movie Villains” rivaling Pelosi as perhaps the most vile Speaker of the House. Joe Biden, whose presidency has been nothing short of a Monty Python skit, would be perfectly cast as the oblivious Baron Bomburst.
It would parallel the Massacre of the Innocents in Matthew’s Gospel where King Herod orders the execution of all male children two years old and under in Bethlehem, but this time it would be just all children in the womb from sea to shining sea.
Randi Weingarten, President of the American Federation of Teachers, would love it. No class of 2041, another year of infamy. Beginning within a short five years, every grade from kindergarten through senior year of high school would guarantee one grade of teachers’ an entire year paid sabbatical. Think of the carbon emissions footprint spared. No birth certificates, social security cards, driver’s licenses, and forget those quinceañeras, sweet sixteen’s and, and certainly no 21st birthday celebrations.
Economic ripples would be devastating and far reaching but long-term thinking has never been a strength of the left.
The enduring and insatiable demand for abortion unveils the true moral rot plaguing the nation’s core.
Abortion is the murder of an innocent human life.
This reality does not change from state to state.
Any law that permits the killing of unborn children is evil even if it is the will of the people. Perhaps one day Americans will view legalized abortion as they now comprehend slavery where each is considered unthinkable and regulated to the ash heap of history. | https://www.thedailyreview.com/opinion/columns_editorials/democrats-gap-year/article_c44afe4d-243c-50d9-8c93-68d316328591.html | 2022-08-13T11:11:12Z | https://www.thedailyreview.com/opinion/columns_editorials/democrats-gap-year/article_c44afe4d-243c-50d9-8c93-68d316328591.html | false | 4 |
CHAUTAUQUA, N.Y. (AP) — Salman Rushdie, the author whose writing led to death threats from Iran in the 1980s, was attacked and apparently stabbed in the neck Friday by a man who rushed the stage as he was about to give a lecture in western New York.
An Associated Press reporter witnessed a man confront Rushdie on stage at the Chautauqua Institution and begin punching or stabbing him 10 to 15 times as he was being introduced. The 75-year-old author was pushed or fell to the floor, and the man was arrested.
Rushdie was taken by helicopter to a hospital, state police said. His condition was not immediately known.
Rabbi Charles Savenor was among the hundreds of people in the audience. Amid gasps, spectators were ushered out of the outdoor amphitheater.
“This guy ran on to platform and started pounding on Mr. Rushdie. At first you’re like, ‘What’s going on?’ And then it became abundantly clear in a few seconds that he was being beaten,” Savenor said. He said the attack lasted about 20 seconds.
A bloodied Rushdie was quickly surrounded by a small group of people who held up his legs, presumably to send more blood to his chest.
Rushdie has been a prominent spokesman for free expression and liberal causes. He is a former president of PEN America, which said it was “reeling from shock and horror” at the attack.
“We can think of no comparable incident of a public violent attack on a literary writer on American soil,” CEO Suzanne Nossel said in a statement.
“Salman Rushdie has been targeted for his words for decades but has never flinched nor faltered,” she added.
His 1988 book “The Satanic Verses” was viewed as blasphemous by many Muslims. Often-violent protests against Rushdie erupted around the w world, including a riot that killed 12 people in Mumbai.
The novel was banned in Iran, where the late leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini issued a 1989 fatwa, or edict, calling for Rushdie’s death.
A bounty of over $3 million has also been offered for anyone who kills Rushdie.
The death threats and bounty led Rushdie to go into hiding under a British government protection program, including a round-the-clock armed guard. Rushdie emerged after nine years of seclusion and cautiously resumed more public appearances, maintaining his outspoken criticism of religious extremism overall.
Iran’s government has long since distanced itself from Khomeini’s decree, but anti-Rushdie sentiment has lingered. The Index on Censorship, an organization promoting free expression, said money was raised to boost the reward for his killing as recently as 2016, underscoring that the fatwa for his death still stands.
In 2012, Rushdie published a memoir, “Joseph Anton,” about the fatwa. The title came from the pseudonym Rushdie had used while in hiding.
Rushdie rose to prominence with his Booker Prize-winning 1981 novel “Midnight’s Children,” but his name became known around the world after “The Satanic Verses.”
The Chautauqua Institution, about 55 miles southwest of Buffalo in a rural corner of New York, is known for its summertime lecture series. Rushdie has spoken there before. | https://www.wcia.com/news/national/author-salman-rushdie-attacked-on-stage-in-new-york/ | 2022-08-13T11:15:25Z | https://www.wcia.com/news/national/author-salman-rushdie-attacked-on-stage-in-new-york/ | true | 13 |
Beauty Hair Haircare I Went Viral on TikTok for Losing My Hair — Here's What I Used to Grow It Back Including a microneedling tool and several hair density serums. By Priya Raj Published on August 13, 2022 Pin Share Tweet Email We independently research, test, review, and recommend the best products—learn more about our process. If you buy something through our links, we may earn a commission. Photo: BeautyBio/Instagram In 2020, I took to TikTok to share my experience of losing my hair and attempting to regrow it after a series of health scares. Hair loss isn't something I had seen openly discussed, and it wasn't even something I really thought could happen to someone my age — until it did. My hair loss started very gradually. I had moved to a new country where the water was extremely hard, which can lead to brittle and damaged strands. But it wasn't until I was put into the hospital for a hodgepodge of various things — stress, vitamin deficiency, a twisted ovary (it's a long story); that I lost a chunk of my hair. Literally. Getting back on your feet after a tough time is hard enough, and to do it while not looking quite like yourself is a whole other ball game. My TikTok video soon gained a lot of traction; I had responses, comments, and DMs flooding in from young people all around the world telling me their own hair loss stories and insecurities, from postpartum tales to young people losing their self-worth along with their hair. But what I've learned over the past few years as I've attempted to regrow my hair is that it's never too late to turn things around. While I have tried what feels like nearly every product that promises to combat hair loss, these are the four that have worked for me. If you're going through a similar situation, hopefully you'll find something that works for you, too. Beauty Bio GloPRO Microneedling Tool, $199; amazon.com Beauty Bio Healthy Scalp Serum, $59; amazon.com The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Serum for Hair Density, $18; ulta.com MONPURE Follicle Boost Hair Density Serum, $113; amazon.com Beauty Bio GloPro Microneedling Tool Courtesy I like using this microneedling tool in conjunction with my hair serums to amp up the impact. Microneedling is a treatment usually used on the skin to treat issues such as wrinkles and acne scars — it works by making microscopic wounds on the skin, which in turn signals your brain to send collagen to rebuild that skin. Trichologist Afope Atoyebi previously explained to InStyle that when used on your scalp, microneedling "can stimulate hair growth as well as increase the thickness and density of the hair." Microneedling does come with risks if you overdo it or have certain scalp conditions, so consult with your dermatologist beforehand if you have any concerns. You can purchase a special scalp microneedling attachment for the Beauty Bio tool that's wider than the regular face attachment head. Shop now: $199; amazon.com Beauty Bio Healthy Scalp Serum Courtesy Formulated to work hand-in-hand with the microneedling device is this lightweight serum that's focused on maintaining a healthy scalp (which is a must if you are struggling with hair loss) as well as adding hair volume. It's the most user-friendly of all the hair serums I've tried, plus it regulates oil production, so it helps to get a few extra days out of hair washes. It's made with zinc, which can help strengthen hair follicles and soothe the scalp, and anti-inflammatory leaf extracts like camellia sinensis. Shop now: $59; amazon.com The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Serum for Hair Density Courtesy The Ordinary rarely gets it wrong, and this hair serum is no different. I started my hair regrowth journey with the Multi-Peptide Serum for Hair Density, and boy did it work. It has a similar, watery texture to the Beauty Bio serum and a concentrated formula including natural extracts, caffeine, peptides, and castor oil, which is a "clean beauty" favorite for hair growth. "The fatty acid component of castor oil, which is ricinoleic acid, can lead to blood vessel dilation,"Dr. DiAnne Davis, a Dallas-based board-certified cosmetic dermatologist, previously told InStyle. "When this happens on the scalp, increased blood vessel dilation will increase blood flow to the hair follicles." Shop now: $18; ulta.com Monpure Follicle Boost Hair Density Serum Courtesy This heavy-duty serum certainly feels like it's doing something. The Monopure hair serum has a rich, thick texture, laden with ingredients like alpha hydroxy acids and retinol to aid in cell turnover and help your hair thrive. Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Michele Green previously told InStyle that "using retinol on the scalp can help maintain a healthy scalp, which will, in turn, facilitate hair growth. The hair follicles need the right nourishment and the scalp also needs to maintain the right pH balance for hair to grow." Shop now: $113; amazon.com Was this page helpful? Thanks for your feedback!

Mahalo for supporting Honolulu Star-Advertiser. Enjoy this free story!
No. 5 Campbell has always had the playmakers to compete in the Open Division under sixth-year head coach Darren Johnson.
Now it might have the boys up front to do something special.
Throwing behind an offensive line bookended by 6-foot-4, 300-pound Joshua Tavai at left tackle and 6-foot-7, 310-pound Isaac Maugaleoo at right tackle, quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele threw for 230 yards and three touchdowns and the Sabers rolled up 345 total yards in the first half of a 34-0 win over Kailua in their season opener on their home field in Ewa Beach on Friday night.
Sagapolutele, who is 6-foot-4, threw his first touchdown pass to 6-foot-5 receiver Mason Muaau.
Everywhere on the field, it seemed, the Sabers were a physically imposing presence.
“We’re big and we’re trying to get better,” Johnson said. “It’s only the beginning. It’s how you end and we’ve got to end right.”
Slot receivers Jourdain Berinobis-Pyne and Rowen Bucao caught touchdown passes in the second quarter and sophomore athlete Tana Togafau-Tavui ran in a short touchdown to put Campbell ahead 34-0 at the break.
Campbell averaged nearly 17 yards a play in the first half, with six different receivers catching one pass for at least 25 yards.
“I love playing for my hometown and it feels great having the community support you,” Sagapolutele said. “Our screens and getting it to our wide receivers is a big part of our offense.”
Sagapolutele, a transfer from Saint Louis’ I-AA team last year, completed nine of his 13 throws and did not return to the field for Campbell’s final drive of the first half.
Togafau Tavui, who already holds Division I offers from Hawaii, Washington and San Diego State, took over at QB on the final drive with 2:10 remaining in the half.
He threw a 41-yard pass to Rusten Abang and ran for 29 yards on the next play to put the Sabers on the Kailua 20.
However, after two running plays, the clock ran out to end the half. Time was kept on the field because the scoreboard wasn’t working.
Neither team scored in a quick second half.
“We have so many offensive weapons we feel like we can do anything we want,” said Berinobis-Pyne, who missed nearly two months during the summer with a broken thumb. “Everyone on the team is a playmaker and (Sagapolutele) shares the ball really well. He makes the right decisions.”
Nine Campbell receivers caught at least one pass. Berinobis-Pyne’s 25-yard TD catch came on the only drive he played.
“Coach asked me if I was sure I could run the play because of my thumb,” Berinobis-Pyne said. “I said, ‘Yes, Coach, put me in and let me run this route,’ and we just executed.”

Hollywood actor Anne Heche declared legally dead one week after car crash
Hollywood actor Anne Heche has been declared legally dead, one week after she crashed her car into a Los Angeles building, a spokeswoman said Friday.
Heche, 53, had been comatose in hospital with a severe brain injury since the fiery collision on August 5.
For all the latest headlines follow our Google News channel online or via the app.
Having lost all brain function, she is “legally dead according to California law,” though her heart is still beating as her family keeps her body on life support while exploring organ donations, spokeswoman Holly Baird told AFP.
“Today we lost a bright light, a kind and most joyful soul, a loving mother, and a loyal friend,” the family said in a joint statement.
“Anne will be deeply missed but she lives on through her beautiful sons, her iconic body of work, and her passionate advocacy.
“Her bravery for always standing in her truth, spreading her message of love and acceptance, will continue to have a lasting impact.”
Heche, best known for 1990s movies “Donnie Brasco” and “Six Days, Seven Nights” as well as a high-profile relationship with talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, crashed her car into a two-story house in the Mar Vista neighborhood of Los Angeles.
The violent collision resulted in “structural compromise and... heavy fire” at the scene, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.
The ensuing blaze took 59 firefighters more than an hour to contain and fully extinguish, the department said.
Local media reported Thursday that preliminary tests of Heche’s blood had come back positive for narcotics, though more were needed to ensure the drugs had not been administered in the course of her treatment.
Celebrity gossip outlet TMZ, citing unnamed police sources, said Heche had tested positive for cocaine and fentanyl, with the latter sometimes used for pain relief in clinical settings.
Heche rose to fame with her role on the soap opera “Another World,” for which she won a Daytime Emmy in 1991.
She was nominated for a Tony award for her appearance in “Twentieth Century” on Broadway in 2004.
“My brother Atlas and I lost our Mom,” Heche’s son Homer Laffoon said in a separate statement.
“Hopefully my mom is free from pain and beginning to explore what I like to imagine as her eternal freedom,” he wrote.

Former Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa has reportedly departed from Singapore for Thailand after the expiration of his short-term visa. According to the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) of Singapore, he left the country on Thursday, August 11. Rajapaksa was given a 14-day visit when he first landed in Singapore on July 14, which was subsequently extended until August 11. The former Sri Lankan President left the country in mid-July following a widespread protest against the worsening economic crisis.
Earlier on Wednesday, August 10, Thailand's Foreign Ministry stated that it has received a request from Rajapaksha to visit the southeast Asian country. It further stated that the former Sri Lankan President does not intend to apply for political asylum there. Tanee Sangrat, a spokesperson for the Thailand Foreign Ministry, stressed that the government has no issue with Rajapaksa visiting the country with a diplomatic passport, the Daily Mirror reported.
Meanwhile, Thailand's Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O-Cha underscored that the Sri Lankan leader will be allowed to enter Bangkok on humanitarian grounds and that he will stay in the country only for a brief period. According to reports, the Sri Lankan government made a formal appeal to the Thai government seeking temporary shelter for the former President. Rajapaksha is expected to return to Sri Lanka in November after his 90-day Thai visa expires and then he would no longer be eligible to apply for temporary shelter in the foreign countries, the Daily Mirror reported citing political sources.
It is pertinent to mention here that Gotabaya Rajapaksa officially resigned as Sri Lanka's President on July 15 amid mounting pressure from his countrymen. Two days before tendering his resignation, Rajapaksa had fled to the Maldives along with his wife and other family members. Staying there for a day, he subsequently moved to Singapore where he stayed nearly for a month. According to reports, Rajapaksa has also made several attempts to apply for asylum in the Middle East but did not receive a positive response.

Packers coach Matt LaFleur was 'pleased' with Jordan Love's play despite 3 interceptions

GREEN BAY, Wis. — All around him, a shaky Green Bay Packers offense threatened to undermine Jordan Love’s introduction to his third preseason.
Rookie receiver Romeo Doubs dropped a pass with no San Francisco 49ers defender around him not long after catching a touchdown. Tight end Tyler Davis let a pass hit his hands and turn into a red-zone interception. Later, on a third-and-8 pick, two receivers ran the wrong route.
In the past, Love could have crumbled in the midst of so much chaos. It wasn’t long ago the 2020 first-round pick looked like a deer in headlights with Kansas City Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnola blitzing him relentlessly in his first NFL start. Given the turbulence, perhaps the most impressive growth Love showed in the first half of Friday night’s 28-21 loss to the 49ers is he didn’t fold.
“It was a smooth operation,” Packers coach Matt LaFleur said. “I thought he got us in and out of the huddle extremely crisp and with urgency. I thought he made some off-schedule plays. He showed some nice athleticism on a couple of those runs as well. So there was a lot of good things out there from Jordan, just the poise that he showed in the pocket. That’s something that we were looking at. I thought overall, just the process of everything, I thought was a pretty good first step for him.”
Love has 'unfortunate' interceptions but ends half with touchdown
Love’s composure, a key ingredient for any successful NFL quarterback, showed on a night his stat line underwhelmed. He completed 13 of 24 passes (54.2%) for 176 yards, two touchdowns, three interceptions and a 66 passer rating. It was his lowest passer rating in three career preseason starts, but LaFleur absolved his quarterback of the most significant blemishes.
After Davis’ drop turned into a pick, Love’s next possession ended the same way. Doubs appeared to catch a high pass on an out route near the left sideline, only to have 49ers cornerback Samuel Womack III wrestle it away before landing on the ground.

Love threw his third straight interception one drive later, throwing to Amari Rodgers on third down in the middle of the field despite Womack’s blanket coverage. He said his pass was behind Rodgers, but LaFleur said his quarterback had nowhere else to throw after two receivers ran the wrong route.
Have a day, @SamW0mack! That's his 2nd INT of the game.

“I think two of those you can totally take off him,” LaFleur said. “The third one, we had two busted routes because the ball really shouldn’t have gone there on that play, but he had nowhere else to go with the football and he forced it in there and the defender made a good play. We’ve just got to clean up everything around him. A lot of times, we say it all the time about quarterbacks: They’re going to get too much credit when we do well, and they’re going to get a lot of the main blame when we don’t. That’s just the reality of playing that position in this league, but I was pleased with Jordan’s performance.”
Love responded to the picks with a nine-play, 70-yard touchdown drive with 2:36 left. He found former Badgers receiver Danny Davis downfield near the right sideline for a 33-yard touchdown with 49 seconds left.

Before the snap, Love said he changed Davis’ route at the line of scrimmage based on the coverage.
“We changed the route at the line and just gave him a go route. I saw the way the DB was playing and just tried to give him a back-shoulder ball. The ball was still a little bit too far forward, but Danny made a great play and was able to come back to it and then go finish it in the end zone. It was an awesome play by him.”

Doubs beat veteran 49ers cornerback Tarvarius Moore deep for 33 yards on Love’s first touchdown in the opening quarter. It was the highlight of an inconsistent but promising preseason debut for the fourth-round rookie receiver, running past the third-year safety who started eight games for the 49ers last season. Doubs, who has impressed in the first two weeks of training camp, finished with three catches for 45 yards on his seven targets.
“That was a great moment,” LaFleur said of Doubs’ touchdown. “They played man coverage, and he went off the line of scrimmage. It was one of those, if he wasn’t so big, it’s like you don’t want to miss the layup. Jordan did a nice job of giving him a catchable ball, and Romeo finished it.”
Love played with confidence against the 49ers
LaFleur chose to keep most of his starters inactive, though he played his starting offensive line in front of Love. The quarterback had solid protection most of the night. He was not sacked in the first half and appeared more comfortable escaping the pocket when necessary, rushing for 24 yards on four carries.
Love didn’t make every throw, but he let it rip with more confidence than in the past. He fired his fastball more than once, and on the touchdown to Doubs showed good touch hitting his open receiver over the shoulder. More than anything, the Packers wanted to see Love command their offense in a live setting. The offense had 247 yards in the first half and found the end zone twice.
“I think the game action means a lot,” Love said. “Being able to get those reps, seeing different looks on the defense, and just going against different guys. The intensity is a little bit higher, and I think the game action is a lot better than practice.”

A senior Cabinet minister who was backing Rishi Sunak in the UK prime ministerial contest on Saturday became the first high-profile figure to switch sides to the opposing camp of Foreign Secretary Liz Truss.
Writing in 'The Daily Telegraph', Sir Robert Buckland said he now believes Truss is the "right person to take the country forward" and that her plans are the best shot for the UK to reach its potential as a "high-growth, high-productivity economy".
The minister said he had initially backed Rishi Sunak because he felt that, during the initial parliamentary rounds where Conservative Party MPs decided on the final two candidates, the former Chancellor was "embodying what we needed".
"As the campaign has moved on, and as I have listened carefully to both candidates, I have thought deeply about the issues that move me and what I want to see the next Prime Minister doing," writes Buckland.
"Changing your mind on an issue like this is not an easy thing to do, but I have decided that Liz Truss is the right person to take the country forward," he said.
The defection comes on the back of surveys that show Truss in a clear lead over her British Indian contender in the race to succeed Boris Johnson as Tory leader and Prime Minister. During such leadership contests, members of Parliament often pick their endorsements with an eye on a ministerial post in the new leader's Cabinet.
Buckland writes: "I know both candidates well and have worked with them in government and in Cabinet... I have looked at ideas and principles first, and personalities second."
"Her (Truss) plans give us our best shot at reaching our potential with the high-growth, high-productivity economy that we need not only to get us out of this crisis but to protect ourselves from the next."
It is in marked contrast to the comments he made in a video a month ago when he publicly endorsed Sunak: "Now is the time for serious leadership, that is why I am proud to back Rishi Sunak as our next Prime Minister." Meanwhile, Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab – one of Sunak's high-profile and ardent supporters – told 'The Times' that Truss' plans were not credible for the country and claimed that while the Foreign Secretary "zigzagged" on issues, Sunak has remained consistent and clear with his vision.
"Being honest, levelling with the country, is really important given the erosion of trust in politicians and the circumstances around the departure of Boris. If we're going to deliver the country through difficult times we need a Prime Minister who has been very clear about the challenges ahead," he tells the newspaper in an interview.
Addressing one of the key attacks during the ongoing campaign that the former Chancellor betrayed Johnson by resigning from his Cabinet last month and speeding up his former boss' exit from 10 Downing Street, the senior Cabinet minister is adamant that Sunak took the right step.
"Anyone who thinks Rishi stabbed Boris in the back is kidding themselves. Liz was doing lots of groundwork with her Fizz for Liz (dinners with MPs) for months on end," said Raab, who is also the Justice Secretary.
"Rishi worked very hard to make the relationship with the Prime Minister work, he's explained why in the end he couldn't stay. I'm saying that as someone who was staunchly loyal to the PM," said Raab.
ALSO READ:
Raab also defended the UK-born Indian-origin former finance minister over attacks on his personal wealth and that of his wife Akshata Murty, daughter of Infosys co-founder Narayana Murthy.
"The blatant sexism underlying the critique is astonishing. I'm surprised in the 21st century we're still hearing these kinds of things. She (Murty) paid all her tax that was due. We should be championing female entrepreneurs who have been as successful as her. She's a great role model for women and for those from ethnic-minority backgrounds who want to live the British dream," he said. | https://www.khaleejtimes.com/womens-day/uk-pm-race-senior-minister-switches-sides-from-rishi-sunak-to-liz-truss | 2022-08-13T12:10:43Z | https://www.khaleejtimes.com/womens-day/uk-pm-race-senior-minister-switches-sides-from-rishi-sunak-to-liz-truss | true | 12 |

Watching various breakfast news bulletins on Wednesday 10th August 2022, it is blatantly apparent that the 300 plus Tory MPs don’t want to come back to Parliament to debate the ever increasing cost of living crisis, especially energy prices.
By the time our 650 MP’s, which incidentally cost taxpayers in excess of £90m pounds each year (and rising due automatic pay increase by the ‘independent’ pay review body), return inflation will be running at 15 per cent.
The solution is to open Parliament and let Martin Lewis chair a meeting with the ‘captains of industry’ with the likes of Alison Brittain (Whitbread), Stewart Rose (ex-M & S) and Archie Norman (ex-Asda and who as an ex MP will know how Parliament works) to discuss the economy and table immediate solutions, which in my opinion will be far more effective for the benefit of the citizens of Great Britain.

India can “bend time’ and catapult to an 11 per cent growth rate in the next decade if it capitalises on the demographic dividend, and boosts manufacturing, as well as exports, RBI Deputy Governor Michael Patra said on Saturday.
India has a window of opportunity in terms of its demographic advantage, capability to boost manufacturing, increase in exports value as well as internalisation, Patra said while delivering a speech to celebrate ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mohotsav’ organised by the Reserve Bank of India, Bhubaneswar.
If India capitalises on its opportunities and overcomes challenges, it is widely believed that India will “bend time”, Patra said. It is possible to imagine “India striking out into the next decade with a growth rate of 11 per cent”.
He said, if this is achieved, India will become the second largest economy in the world not by 2048, but by 2031.
With a population of 1.38 billion, India is the world’s youngest at 28.4 years. By 2023, India will be the most populous country in the world at 1.43 billion, he said.
Drawing a comparison in terms of working-age population (WAP) ratio, he said India stands at an advantageous position vis-a-vis countries like China, Brazil, the US and Japan as the working-age populations of these countries have started declining already.
While India’s WAP ratio will increase till 2045, even exceeding that of China by 2030.
“Making the most of this demographic dividend is India’s opportunity as well as a challenge,” Patra said.
Talking about the manufacturing potential of India, he said it is another engine for the take-off of India’s economic growth.
Asserting that robust growth of manufacturing is essential to boost exports, he said, it is imperative to overturn conventional wisdom and catch up with other leading manufacturers of the world.
To achieve this, he said three things are essential. Firstly the manufacturing sector must adapt to the fourth industrial revolution through automation; data exchange; cyber-physical systems; the internet of things; cloud computing; cognitive computing; the smart factory; and advanced robotics.
Secondly, India must develop a skilled labour force by stepping up investment in human capital and thirdly efforts must be directed to boost international competitiveness.
“India must raise the share of manufacturing to at least 25 per cent of GDP to become a global manufacturing hub.” In terms of exports, Patra said it is an avenue to widening of markets and production capabilities beyond national borders.
From USD 800 billion worth of export of goods and services currently, which is about 2.7 per cent of the world total, he said if India can achieve the target of USD 1 trillion set by the government by 2030, it can boost India’s share to 5 per cent in world exports.
With this, India would become an export powerhouse, he said. Several initiatives are in place to actualise this and raising India’s share in world exports to at least 5 per cent is within reach.
On “internationalisation”, he said Indians are among the most internationalised people in the world.
Indian diaspora is the biggest in the world and India is the top recipient of remittances. The Indian rupee trades three times more offshore than onshore. Yet we still talk of internationalisation as if it is the last frontier.” “If the INR (Indian Rupee) turnover rises to equal the share of non-US non-Euro currencies in global forex turnover (4 per cent), the INR will have arrived as an international currency, reflecting India’s position in the global economy,” Patra said.
Also read: CPI inflation at five-month low; IIP moderates to 12.3%
However, he said there are challenges in terms of making up for the output and livelihood loss due to the pandemic and it will take several years to recover from this loss.
Among others, there are challenges such as infrastructure gap in terms of lower per capital investment in building infrastructure in the country as well as lack of high-quality labour force. | https://www.financialexpress.com/economy/achieving-11pc-growth-rate-in-next-decade-possible-if-india-capitalises-on-demography-manufacturing-exports-rbi-deputy-governor/2628748/ | 2022-08-13T12:17:14Z | https://www.financialexpress.com/economy/achieving-11pc-growth-rate-in-next-decade-possible-if-india-capitalises-on-demography-manufacturing-exports-rbi-deputy-governor/2628748/ | false | 4 |

Gary Player calls out son for allegedly auctioning trophies, memorabilia off
Gary Player called out his son on Monday for apparently trying to sell his trophies and other memorabilia.
The former PGA Tour star said on Twitter that his son, Marc, was allegedly selling trophies and other memorabilia of his at auctions.
"I would like to draw the public's attention to the fact that several trophies and other pieces of memorabilia that form part of my legacy have been put up for auction by my son and ex-manager, Marc," Player said in a statement. "These items belong to me and I have taken action to recover them. I have placed no items for sale — whether by auction or otherwise."
[Set, hut, hike! Create or join a fantasy football league now!]
It’s unclear what items specifically of Player’s have been put up for sale, or what action he’s taken to recover them.
Player, 86, won 24 times on the PGA Tour, including nine major championships, throughout his career — most recently at the Houston Open in 1978. He’s won 22 times on the PGA Tour Champions, too, and 118 times internationally.
The South African has had several public spats with his family in recent years. He was awarded $5 million in a settlement with Marc in 2020 over a contractual dispute between the golfer and the Gary Player Group — which was run by Marc. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2698199917550/gary-player-calls-out-son-for-allegedly-auctioning-trophies-memorabilia-off | 2022-08-13T12:19:29Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2698199917550/gary-player-calls-out-son-for-allegedly-auctioning-trophies-memorabilia-off | false | 11 |

A 38-year-old farmer was killed by unidentified assailants while he was working in his farm in Uttar Pradesh's Sambhal district, police said on Saturday.
The incident took place in Maulagarh village late on Friday night, they said.
Additional Superintendent of Police Aalok Jaiswal said Vijay Kumar was working in his field when some unidentified assailants killed him using a sharp-edged weapon.
Prima facie, the incident appears to be a result of personal enmity. A case has been registered in the matter on a complaint lodged by Kumar's family members, he said.
The body has been sent for a post-mortem examination, the police said.

‘It’s going to be government money’: Jim Rogers just issued a serious warning to crypto investors — here are the 2 shockproof assets he likes instead
After several years of glorious appreciation, cryptocurrencies are having a major pullback. Bitcoin, for instance, is down 50% year to date.
While many coins look like they are on sale, legendary investor Jim Rogers warns that there is one danger associated with owning crypto assets – the government.
“If and when all our money is on our computer, it’s going to be government money,” he said in a recent interview with Bloomberg Crypto. “That’s not the way bureaucrats think. That’s not the way politicians think. They want control. They want to regulate everything.”
So where should investors look if they want safer alternatives in this turbulent time?
In June, Rogers told ET Now that “there is no such thing as safe” in the world of investments. Still, the multimillionaire points to two assets that could help you withstand the uncertainty ahead – they also happen to be solid hedges against rampant inflation.
Don’t miss
Mitt Romney says a billionaire tax will trigger demand for these two physical assets — get in now before the super-rich swarm
You could be the landlord of Walmart, Whole Foods and Kroger (and collect fat grocery store-anchored income on a quarterly basis)
Warren Buffett likes these 2 investment opportunities outside of the stock market
Silver
Precious metals are a go-to choice for investors in dark times, and Rogers is a long-time advocate.
“Silver is probably less dangerous than other things. Gold is probably less dangerous,” he told ET Now.
Gold and silver can’t be printed out of thin air like fiat money, so they can help investors preserve wealth in inflationary periods. At the same time, their prices tend to stay resilient in times of crisis.
But that doesn’t mean they are crash-proof.
“I'm not buying them now, because in a big collapse, everything goes down. But I probably will buy more silver when it goes down some more.”
Silver is widely used in the production of solar panels and is a critical component in many vehicles’ electrical control units. Rising industrial demand, in addition to its usefulness as a hedge, makes silver in particular a compelling asset for investors.
You can buy silver coins and bars directly at your local bullion shop. You can also invest in silver ETFs like the iShares Silver Trust (SLV).
Meanwhile, silver miners such as Wheaton Precious Metals (WPM), Pan American Silver (PAAS) and Coeur Mining (CDE) are also solidly positioned for a silver price boom.
Agriculture
You don’t need an MBA to see the appeal of agriculture in a bear market: No matter how big the next crash is, no one is crossing “food” out of their budget.
Rogers sees agriculture as a potential refuge in the upcoming collapse.
“Silver and agriculture are probably the least dangerous things in the next two or three years,” he says.
For a convenient way to get broad exposure to the agriculture sector, check out the Invesco DB Agriculture Fund (DBA). It tracks an index made up of futures contracts on some of the most widely traded agricultural commodities — including corn, soybeans and sugar.
You can also use ETFs to tap into individual agricultural commodities. The Teucrium Wheat Fund (WEAT) and the Teucrium Corn Fund (CORN) have gained 13% and 19%, respectively, in 2022.
Rogers also likes the idea of investing in farmland itself.
“Unless we’re going to stop wearing clothes and eating food, agriculture is going to get better. If you really, really love it, go out there and get yourself a farm and you’ll get very, very, very rich,” he told financial advisory firm Wealthion late last year.
Some real estate investment trusts specialize in owning farmland, such as Gladstone Land (LAND) and Farmland Partners (FPI).
Meanwhile, new investing services allow you to invest in farmland by taking a stake in a farm of your choice. You’ll earn cash income from the leasing fees and crop sales — and any long-term appreciation on top of that.

DALLAS — When the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the feeling was “complicated” for Aubrey Schlackman, who considers herself “pro-life.”
As someone who believes the “unborn” should be saved, she was thankful. But Schlackman also felt the “sobering reality of the fact that we have to step up to the plate and help these moms” with a sense of urgency.
Schlackman runs a North Texas ministry called Blue Haven Ranch, west of Denton, that provides housing, support and other resources to single mothers who are pregnant and choose to have the child. A mother herself, she knows motherhood is a life-changing decision not to be taken lightly.
With the court’s decision, Blue Haven and other faith-based organizations in Dallas-Fort Worth anticipate increased demand for the parenting resources, housing and support systems needed to raise children. And while such organizations vary in philosophy and approach to abortion, some advocating “pro-life” policies and others avoiding discussing abortion at all, they align in feeling that their mission to support women and families has become more urgent.
“While so many are rejoicing over this decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, I think they need to take the stance of taking action, too, by stepping in to help us organizations,” said Thana Hickman-Simmons, founder and executive director of Viola’s House.
A need for housing
Housing applications are already spiking at Viola’s House in Dallas, a maternity home for mothers age 18 to 24 who find themselves homeless or at risk of homelessness, Hickman-Simmons said. Now that Roe v. Wade is overturned, she expects a larger housing crisis. Through a partnership with Cornerstone Baptist Church, Viola’s House plans to close on a 12-unit apartment building in the next 30 days.
Viola’s House currently offers five beds for 10 residents, with each bed accommodating a single mother and one child for up to six months. The new apartment units will be available for them for up to a year, and will accommodate mothers with multiple children.
Schlackman, who runs Blue Haven Ranch, is trying to expand and began receiving more donations and volunteers after the court’s decision. The facility serves five mothers and has a waitlist of 12.
“I can’t help them all,” Schlackman said. “And I know that’s only 12. I know there’s so many more that they just haven’t found us. And I know that will grow.”
The ministry provides housing, paid maternity leave, baby showers, support groups, farm therapy, cooked meals and other resources for up to 18 months after birth for a single pregnant mother who already has a child, she said.
Starting with one mom who came to Schlackman’s home in January 2021 to cook meals and study the Bible together, the idea quickly expanded. As the organization’s name suggests, Schlackman ultimately plans to create a “maternity ranch” with cottages for families, a community center and resources to create a healing environment for moms.
She and her family recently moved to Krum, northwest of Denton, and she began the process of purchasing 124 acres of land nearby for the nonprofit. Blue Haven has until the end of October to determine whether it will use the land to build the ranch, which will cost $3.3 million.
For now, Blue Haven uses a church facility in Argyle for support group meetings and Bible studies and to cool meals.
Last week, the families gathered at the church to celebrate the birthday of the third child born into the program. Yellow and green balloons and a “happy birthday” banner marked the occasion for Victoria, a one-year-old girl in a yellow tutu.
‘Community and camaraderie’
For moms, the community aspect of the family services is crucial.
Tia Stelzer, a member of Watermark Community Church in Dallas, said even her planned pregnancy was difficult, and it made her realize how challenging motherhood could be for women experiencing unplanned pregnancies.
“It’s absolutely important as the church that we come around these women and these babies and really support them, because honestly, the best way to love these babies is to love and care for their parents,” she said.
Stelzer joined the church four years ago and used the ministry service that provides guidance to first-time moms.
“It was a great, great sense of community and camaraderie and just support during a very vulnerable time in my life,” Stelzer said. “I felt very blessed, I was a part of a church that offered that ministry because it kind of felt like a breaking point for me … and it was much needed during that time.”
A year after she joined, she became a mentor in the unexpected pregnancy ministry, where she paired up with a woman experiencing an unplanned pregnancy and spent about two years guiding her. Now, Stelzer is the ministry’s coordinator.
The church offers additional ministries to families, women and men with unexpected pregnancies and past abortions. Watermark has three urgent care clinics that provide sonogram, UTI care, and services for unexpected pregnancy and miscarriages.
“We would never wait until a child needs to be adopted to begin caring for them,” said Bruce Kendrick, director of the church’s Life Initiative program. “And so we don’t want to wait until a woman’s had an abortion or man’s been involved in that to begin caring for them.”‘I can give hope’
Samela Macon, vice president of domestic operations and support services at Buckner Children and Family Services, said it’s too early to predict the court’s impact on adoptions. While Buckner International focuses primarily on adoption and foster care, the ministry also provides social services.
Macon expects those services for women experiencing unplanned pregnancies to be in demand. The organization provides resources for families in underserved communities, which tend to reflect the population experiencing unplanned pregnancies, she said.
Buckner doesn’t give referrals to abortion clinics; it focuses on empowering women to make informed decisions during pregnancy, Macon said.
“We really work to meet them where they are, treat them with respect and dignity and empathy, knowing that they’re making very difficult decisions that have an impact on the rest of their lives,” Macon said.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, unintended pregnancy rates tend to be highest among women aged 18 to 24, Black women, and those who have income below the federal poverty line, have not completed high school, or were cohabitating but never married.
When Lisa Olgin-Galindo begins to tell the story of her experience with Buckner, she tears up.
“I have a brand new life,” Galindo said. “I can give hope out now freely in abundance because it was given to me.”
Galindo is a case manager at Exodus Ministries, which helps formerly incarcerated moms and their children by providing a safe place to live and other resources. Exodus was Galindo’s first stop when she came to Dallas in 2016 trying to piece her life back together.
Galindo said she was estranged from her two oldest daughters and had a baby while in prison. She struggled to pay bills and child support while living on her own and trying to avoid her old lifestyle.
After Exodus, she went to Buckner’s Family Pathways program, which helps single parents attain affordable housing, child care, counseling, mentorship, money management training and more. She said the program was “dire to the success” of her family, relieving financial stress and helping her rebuild her relationship with her children.
“Had I known that there were people who believed in me, who believed in the unity of family, who believed in goals, hopes and dreams, I don’t think it would have taken me as long to make it to where I am today,” Galindo said.
Galindo said she found herself in a similar situation in life as her own mother, and events sent her “down a path of depression and worthlessness” and led to drugs and a cycle of incarceration. She said Buckner’s positive influence will last for generations, giving her children an upbringing different than her own.
Galindo met her husband while in the program and they got married soon after graduation. They have a family of nine. But to raise a child on one’s own, she said parents need support.
“You can do it all on your own. You can push everyone away, but you’re bitter and you’re isolated, and you are not able to teach children social skills,” Galindo said. “But if you will receive a community, and you have a community of other single women, of those who believe in you, who support you, community groups, counselors … you can thrive to be a stronger version of you, which trickles down into your family.”
Collective responsibility
Following the overturning of Roe, there must be a focus on the “collective responsibility,” said Macon with Buckner; Texans have to advocate for vulnerable families.
“People are really struggling right now,” Macon said. “There’s a lot of anxiety around the ruling and I think we first have to keep front-of-mind the importance of empathy and compassion.”
Schlackman, who founded Blue Haven Ranch, said no matter where someone stands on the legality or politics of abortion, there is a “heavy responsibility” to care for women that can’t be carried by the government alone.
“I wish people could get past the labels and understand these are just women in need,” Schlackman said.
Hickman-Simmons, at Viola’s House, said the organization simply doesn’t get into the politics of abortion.
“We are pro-love. Love is an action word,” she said. “So, no matter what myself or my staff’s personal views, we step into action and we support the mother and the baby.” | https://www.fredericknewspost.com/news/lifestyle/religion/in-a-post-roe-world-faith-based-family-services-take-on-new-responsibilities/article_49c081ef-4613-5f3b-a850-54d794a41134.html | 2022-08-13T12:40:09Z | https://www.fredericknewspost.com/news/lifestyle/religion/in-a-post-roe-world-faith-based-family-services-take-on-new-responsibilities/article_49c081ef-4613-5f3b-a850-54d794a41134.html | true | 1 |

“Simple Saturday” columns focus on basic technique and logical thinking.
The methods people employ to protect their assets have evolved from castle moats to mattresses stuffed with cash, to safety deposit boxes. When you are declarer, your trump suit is a precious asset. Do what you can to safeguard it.
Today’s West led the nine of hearts, winning, against four spades. East won the next heart with the ten and led the ace, and South ruffed with the king of trumps to shut out an overruff.
EIGHT OF TRUMPS
South next led a trump to dummy’s jack. When East won and led another heart, South was stuck. Whether he ruffed high again or low, West’s eight of trumps would score. Down one.
South played like a man with a tin can of money buried in his backyard. After his king of trumps wins, he must take the precaution of leading a diamond to dummy and returning the five of trumps. When East wins and leads a fourth heart, South can afford to ruff high again. He can draw trumps and claim.
DAILY QUESTION
You hold: S J 5 H Q 7 5 3 D A K 9 4 C A 8 4. Your partner opens one club, you respond one heart and he bids one spade. What do you say?
ANSWER: At responder’s second turn, he often has enough information to place the contract or suggest a contract. Since you have a balanced 14 points with the unbid suit stopped, bid 3NT. If your king of diamonds were the ten, you would bid 2NT to invite game. (Some players, quite reasonably, would have responded one diamond.)

Best spacious backpacks for books
Getting a new backpack is a big deal, especially if you’re replacing a well-used backpack from another time. Most students use their backpacks for laptops and other school supplies, and those in high-level classes often need to be able to haul several heavy books around from class to class. Doing so with a comfortable backpack can not only aid your grades, but it’ll also spare your back.
What makes a backpack ‘top-rated’?
Capacity
Choosing a backpack that can hold many ideal items for students. Backpacks with a high volume of space should be able to hold several books at once without sacrificing your ability to carry them from class to class. Many large-capacity backpacks also use compartments, pockets and other storage options, letting users separate their laptops, books, pens and other supplies sensibly.
Comfort
When carrying many books, choosing something that will minimize harm to your body is essential. Most backpack brands have their own strap and backplate styles that can influence how the backpack rests on your shoulders and back. If you want to upgrade the physical benefits of your backpack, choose something with specially designed straps for your shoulders and added layers between your back and your bag’s contents.
Design
A backpack’s design and overall style are no less important than its functionality. While style is largely an aesthetic benefit of backpacks, well-designed ones can help you dress to impress when great opportunities come along. Backpacks are also a great way to be expressive, just like with an article of clothing. If nothing else, you’ll see your backpack more than anyone, so choosing something you like to look at is worth prioritizing.

It is not easy to see an Afghan man cry. Taj Mohammad, 53, doesn’t bother to wipe away the tear that runs down his left cheek. This Saturday marks the first anniversary of the death of his son Sadiqullah, 28 years old. He was one of the police officers trying to prevent the Taliban from taking control of Kandahar, Afghanistan’s second largest city of about 600,000 people. A scuffle at a crossroads in front of a mosque killed him and three other companions. The fundamentalist guerrillas had achieved on the night of August 12 last year that the local forces lay down their arms. The next day, Kandahar belonged to the Taliban, although that did not prevent deaths like those of these four agents, as well as several dozen executions of people linked to the deposed government. In two days, on August 15, the bearded jihadists took Kabul, the capital.
Kandahar has been strengthened this year as the spiritual capital of the Islamic Emirate. In this province he founded the Taliban movement (talib is a student, Taliban, its plural) Mullah Mohamed Omar in 1994. The heir to that position, Mullah Hibatullah Akhundzada, is not part of the Government, but pulls the strings from Kandahar with hardly any public presence and forming a kind of government in the shade. “The orders are sent from Kandahar, but the capital, the Administration and the Government are mainly in Kabul”, affirms without hiding this duality of powers Maulvi Hayatullah Mubarak, deputy governor of the province, during an interview with EL PAÍS.
It is not surprising that this is the model that the Emirate looks to in order to impose its foundations. Seeing a woman in Kandahar is not easy. Nor is there a trace of them during Friday prayers in the mosque or in a restaurant that can be considered one of the most advanced and frequented in the city, the NFC. The lieutenant governor denies that “rights” and “privileges” are being taken away from them, although some of them complain that, in the shadow of the sharia (Islamic law) are further alienating them from the public sphere and preventing them from working.
Twenty women learn a trade in a textile workshop located in the basement of a mud house on the outskirts of Kandahar. The temperature is suffocating, all of them are completely covered and the machines with which they sew do not move with more energy than that of their hands. Sweat makes some look burqa soaked in the middle of the rattle. Many are widows and appreciate being able to train and have a monthly salary of 2,000 Afghanis (about 20 euros). Leading them all is Kochai Afghan, 30, a businesswoman who says she had to close her artisan clothing business in the city market. Others present agree that they are no longer allowed to work in front of the public, a statement that the lieutenant governor describes as “false.”
In the basement of the workshop, each testimony is a drama. Afghan, as covered up as the others, admits that her income is the only one that enters her house, where she leaves behind two sons, two daughters and a husband addicted to hashish and alcohol. Nuria, under a worn burqa olive green, lost his 18-year-old son Abdulsamad a year ago when the vehicle he was traveling in blew over a mine. He first says that he is 30 years old, but when he begins to detail that he still has two sons and ten daughters left, he admits that he does not know how old he is, something more than frequent in Afghanistan.

The Taliban do not have, a year after coming to power, a plan to rescue and save the private sector, despite the fact that 80% of the economy depends on it, laments Niamatullah Niamat, 41 years old. His dairy company, Afghan Maldar Dairy, has 50 employees who, due to the covid crisis and the economic instability caused by the change of government, are now paid 30% less. His facilities only receive 10 hours a day of electricity supply, the rest they have to supply with generators powered by a fuel that has doubled its price. “The private sector is dying day by day, company by company, and if the Government does nothing…”, he leaves the sentence unfinished, implying that the Emirate will not get ahead without the businessmen. The meetings he has had with some officials, some ministers, have been of little use, he points out. He acknowledges, however, that it is essential to unblock the accounts of the central bank of Afghanistan abroad, where 9,000 million dollars are deposited. [unos 8.777 millones de euros].
power outages
On the main streets of Kandahar there are no beggars, as there are thousands in Kabul, but it is easy to see employees empty the pipes to the right and left in which tons of mud, waste and sewage accumulate, because this city, at Like the capital, it does not have a sewage system. In addition, power outages continue to be frequent. These are problems inherited from the previous authorities that have little to do with the current management of the Taliban. Those eternal scourges matter little to some. “With my son alive and under the previous government, everything was going well,” says Taj Mohammad, the father of the policeman who died a year ago, while assuring that he knows “nothing” about the Taliban leader. “The Emir al Muminin (chief of the believers, a religious position he holds) has all government affairs under his control and supervision,” the deputy governor settles.
Two of the deputy governors who preceded Maulvi Hayatullah Mubarak were killed in terrorist attacks during the Taliban’s campaign of attacks against the authorities of the government toppled a year ago. One of these two cases was directly claimed by those who now hold power. The current deputy governor does not miss the opportunity to reproach the reporter for the presence of Spanish troops in Afghanistan. “The United States, the American media and their allies in the world lied and spread false propaganda about us. I would like you to inform the people of Spain objectively about Afghanistan”, he points out while insisting that they have brought peace.
But the reality is that violence remains entrenched in the country. Kabul has been the target of attacks in recent days. On Thursday, shortly after the meeting with the deputy governor of Kandahar, a prominent Taliban cleric, Rahimullah Haqqani, was killed when a terrorist blew himself up in his Koranic school in the capital in an attack that hastened to claim the Islamic State (ISIS, according to its acronym in English). This Friday, after praying in a mosque in Kandahar, the shaykh Abdulbasir Sahib, 50, criticizes and condemns that attack, which he says was not carried out by Muslims. Two dozen Taliban youths, some of them armed, surround him and kiss his hand. Moments later, silence falls to listen to his answers to the journalist. In an impossible balance to maintain, the religious and former combatant tries to explain, without success, why the suicide attacks of the Taliban are justified and those of their rival, the ISIS, are not: “There is a big difference. We were fighting for Islam and against the previous government and the invading troops. They were our target.”

Going to restaurants, ordering food, and munching on delicacies are some luxuries that many poverty-stricken people can’t afford. Apart from being mistreated, they also often can’t arrange meals twice a day. However, a confectionary shop owner in Uttar Pradesh has proved his empathy by distributing free cakes to orphans. A photo of his kind gesture has gone viral on the internet.
Chhattisgarh Cadre IAS officer Awanish Sharan recently shared a heartwarming photo of a confectionery shop on Twitter and wrote, “Love and Respect for the Shop Owner.”

The picture shows cakes, buns and chocolates kept in a glass display showcase. What caught the attention of the netizens is a piece of paper pasted on the glass showcase. On the paper it was written, “Free. Free. Free. Kids between 0-14 years of age, who do not have a mother or father, can get free cakes.”
The photo has won the hearts of thousands of users on Twitter. The viral picture is being widely circulated on social media. According to Sharan, the name of the shop is Kanak Sweets and it is located in Deoria town of Uttar Pradesh.
Netizens have lauded the shop owner’s selfless move of taking the responsibility of feeding the poor orphans. One user called the seller an “inspiration.” “Positive people find positive things all around. You are a live example of this. Thanks for being a source of inspiration for us,” tweeted the user.

Salford Red Devils are on course to record another emphatic win in Super League as Paul Rowley's men lead Huddersfield Giants 26-6 at halftime.
Tries from Ken Sio, Joe Burgess, Kallum Watkins and Tim Lafai have put the Red Devils in cruise control at the AJ Bell Stadium, with Huddersfield failing to cope with the hosts' ruck speed and offload game around the park. Sio's effort takes his tally to 23 in Super League this year.
However, the Giants have been offered a lifeline as instrumental Salford halfback Brodie Croft was sent to the sin-bin on the hooter for a professional foul, meaning Ian Watson's side will have a man advantage for the first 10 minutes after the interval. Chris McQueen, who the Giants announced has penned a new one-year deal with the West Yorkshire outfit, got the visitors back into the contest as he crashed over after a ball steal on Burgess, but the Red Devils have been excellent in the first 40, and deserve their healthy lead.

The temperatures are rising in Manchester, and so are the Red Devils, it seems who are desperate to pick up another two points in their hunt for a top six spot, especially with rivals Leeds Rhinos and Castleford Tigers winning on Friday night. A big second half is on the cards, but if Salford can weather the storm until Croft returns, it could be a long afternoon for Huddersfield, who will be extremely disappointed in the way they have started the contest.

TORONTO, Jan. 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Ontario English Catholic Teachers' Association (OECTA) has issued the following statement, in response to the Ford government's announcement to extend the school closure period until at least January 17.
"Whether the government delays school reopening by two days or two weeks, today's announcement will not meaningfully impact school health and safety unless the Ford government stops ignoring, and finally acts upon, the critical measures Catholic teachers, and education and public health experts, have been demanding for almost two years," says OECTA President Barb Dobrowolski.
"Throughout the pandemic, the Ford government has opted for a wait-and-see approach to COVID-19, and then scrambled to make last-minute decisions that offer little more than half-measures," says Dobrowolski. "Today's decision, coming just four days after their last ‘plan' was announced, was entirely avoidable. This is yet again another reactionary measure in a long list that stems from this government's abdication of leadership, which has repeatedly failed students, parents, teachers, education workers, and all Ontarians."
Ontario cannot afford repeated school closures and learning disruptions.
"The Ford government must take advantage of the additional time they have given themselves, and act to provide the investment necessary for a safe learning environment, so that students can enjoy the benefits of in-person learning without further chaos and confusion," insists Dobrowolski.
For a safe and sustainable learning and working environment in Ontario schools, and to provide the greatest level of protection to our students and communities, Catholic teachers call on the Ford government to:
- prioritize access to booster shots for all teachers and education workers;
- make additional rapid antigen tests available to everyone in schools;
- reinstitute case count reporting and implement a comprehensive COVID-19 testing and tracing program;
- immediately provide all teachers and education workers with N95 masks, as well as the best possible masks to all students, with improved guidelines to ensure masking compliance;
- reduce class sizes to promote physical distancing;
- and improve ventilation and install HEPA filters in all classrooms and public areas in schools, with publicly available air quality metrics and standards, in recognition and acceptance of the fact that the virus is airborne.
OECTA also believes that everyone working in, or attending school who is eligible to be vaccinated, should be vaccinated. COVID-19 must be added to the list of designated diseases in Ontario Regulation 261/13 Designated Diseases under the Immunization of School Pupils Act (ISPA), requiring students to be vaccinated against COVID-19, and coupled with a robust public campaign promoting the importance of student vaccination.
"It has been painful to watch our students suffer through repeated in-class learning disruptions, negatively impacting their mental health and academic well-being," says Dobrowolski. "The Ford government must act now and invest the resources necessary for safe and sustainable in-class learning."

She was working at Sportsgirl when she got the call to join J.R.R. Tolkien’s world
It’s the kind of break actors spend years dreaming about, but Markella Kavenagh landed her role in the new Lord of the Rings series while still a teen. She talks to Genevieve Quigley.
If you google Markella Kavenagh’s date of birth, many of the results will tell you she was born in 1990. Given her long list of acting credits, this seems to add up. But when the fresh-faced actor sits down for an interview with Sunday Life, it’s clear she’s much younger than the 32 years various websites claim her to be. “I’m only 21,” she says, laughing. “I was born in 2000.”
This correction makes the work Markella has squeezed into a few short years even more impressive – and shows why you shouldn’t trust everything you read online.
A self-confessed “theatre kid”, Markella was in high school at Melbourne’s Wesley College when she landed her first role, in Foxtel’s 2018 series Picnic at Hanging Rock. This was quickly followed that year by a gig on Stan’s Romper Stomper (“I rocked up to school with a shaved undercut,” she recalls), and the BBC’s acclaimed drama The Cry. Next was the 2019 film The True History of the Kelly Gang, directed by Justin Kurzel, then another Stan series, The Gloaming, in 2020.
Markella was still a teenager, barely out of school and working at fashion retailer Sportsgirl, when she got the call that would change her life.
“I remember being in the back room and I was locking up for the night,” she says. “Then I got this call from my agent about an audition. It was so surreal. I just thought, ‘Well, you know what, I will do the audition and that’s where it probably will end. And I’m so grateful to be able do it and be in the room.’ But then I got a call a couple of weeks later …”
That call was to tell her she’d been cast as Elanor “Nori” Brandyfoot in the massively-hyped Amazon Prime Video series, Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. It’s due to air next month and Markella is flat-out on the publicity trail in the lead-up to the launch, including today’s photo shoot and interview with Sunday Life.
Ever since Amazon bought the television rights to The Lord of the Rings for $US250 million in November 2017, die-hard fantasy fans have been picking over any tiny morsel of information they can get their hands on about the series. So it’s not surprising then that online forums went into a frenzy when Markella was the first casting to be announced, accompanied by an image of her character.
As Nori, Markella has curly ash-brown hair and elfin ears. Her cheeks are round and rosy, and her expression is wide-eyed and innocent. It’s a far cry from the look she is adopting for today’s shoot and interview: a vampy goddess in a sequinned dress, her lips cherry red and her long hair jet black. “It was initially for testing hair colours for a role,” she says of her raven mane, “and I just really liked it.”
The series is based in the world created by J.R.R. Tolkien in The Lord
of the Rings and its appendices. Set in the Second Age of Middle-earth, thousands of years before The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, it follows a cast of both familiar and new characters as they confront the threat of evil returning to Middle-earth.
Those familiar with Tolkien’s work will be able to identify the character of Nori as one of the “new” variety. “She’s not specifically a canon character,” explains Markella. “But obviously, there are Harfoots in the Legendarium.”
Harfoots? Legendarium? Those not familiar with Tolkien’s work might be scratching their heads. First up, the Legendarium is the body of writing that forms the background to The Lord of the Rings.
When it comes to explaining Harfoots, Markella does that best. “Harfoots are kind of the ancestors to Hobbits – they look quite similar,” she says. “They’ve both got the feet, they’ve both got the ears. But the main difference is their circumstance.
“So the Hobbits that we’ve seen in the books and later in the Fellowship, they have the Shire, they have their home. Whereas the Harfoots are very much still in the process of finding that sense of solid, secure place.”
What else can Markella tell fact-hungry fans about Nori specifically? “Nori is a very resolute, very inquisitive Harfoot. She kind of pushes the boundaries and she just really wants to subvert tradition and the expectations of what being a Harfoot looks like. She kind of leads with the idea that a fear of risk can be greater than the risk itself, so why not just go out there and take it and see what you can do.”
“”I never thought that I would find myself in fantasy,” she confesses. “I fell in love with film through minimalist, neorealist movies like Bicycle Thievesand Shoplifters.”
The way Markella speaks about her character and the Tolkien world, she comes across as a dedicated fantasy fan. But it turns out she hasn’t always been au fait with Harfoots and Hobbits.
“I never thought that I would find myself in fantasy,” she confesses. “I fell in love with film through minimalist, neorealist movies like Bicycle Thieves and Shoplifters. Those are the films that I love, because they’re focusing on the space between people in relationships, and in our real life. There are no fancy cuts and visuals.
“I knew and I appreciated that there was a place for fantasy through comfort and escapism. But it’s been so liberating to see that you can take those same themes, and that same truth and the same approach, and focus on truthful stories and portraying specific storylines and character arcs, just in a fantastical context.”
Given the feverish fascination with Tolkien’s work, is Markella ready for the fame that will become her reality when the series goes to air? “I’m just kind of staying open and seeing what happens,” she says, either completely unfazed or possibly unaware of what lies ahead.
A quick look at Markella’s Instagram profile shows she has a modest 12,000 followers. No doubt that will explode with her growing celebrity. “I have so many thoughts about social media,” she says. “For me, social media is something that I’m continuously navigating. If I wake up in the morning and the first app I check is my Instagram and I see something that was posted five hours ago, I’m already starting my day in the past. When I personally can struggle with being completely present, I want to focus on investing as much as I can in my interests and in issues I care about.
“So it’s making sure that I’m investing in my real life and in the people who I love. Because otherwise, I feel like you can get stuck. You can get stuck scrolling, stuck comparing.
It can be a bit of a vicious cycle and I don’t want to contribute to an echo chamber. I really want to make sure I’m taking the time to reflect on how I would like my online presence to be.”
For many breakthrough actors, a move to Hollywood is the obvious next step. But Markella is not so sure. “There’s a quote by Aldous Huxley that says, ‘There are quicksands all about you, sucking at your feet, trying to suck you down into fear and self-pity and despair. That’s why you must walk so lightly. Lightly my darling.’
“I think that’s easier said than done sometimes. But I really try to hold on to that. To not let any outside noise or expectations affect what I decide to do and the choices I make. I’ve thought about moving to LA but I just want to see what I gravitate towards naturally.”
With her level-headedness about fame and social media, her love of neorealist films and the ability to casually slip a Huxley quote into a conversation, Markella displays a degree of maturity far beyond her years. Perhaps the birth date on Google is correct after all?
“My friends are always making fun of me because sometimes I’ll listen to a song and I’ll just be like, ‘You know what, I feel nostalgic for the ’90s,’ “, she says, laughing. “But I wasn’t even born then!”
Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power premieres on Prime Video on September 2.

Renowned snake researcher dies from rattlesnake bite in West Virginia
A respected snake researcher who had been making significant discoveries about the species since childhood has died after being bitten by a timber rattler.
William H. "Marty" Martin died Aug. 3 after being bitten the day before by a captive snake on the property at his home in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, according to his wife, Renee Martin.
Martin, who was 80 years old, continued to make arduous mountain hikes to document and count snake populations in remote sites, said Joe Villari, who manages the Bull Run Mountains Preserve in northern Virginia and would accompany Martin on his outings there.
"He was in his 80s, and he was hard to keep up with," said Villari, who made it a point to join Martin on his semiannual treks to remote mountain dens where the snakes would live.
John Sealy, a rattlesnake researcher from Stokesdale, North Carolina, who knew Martin for more than 30 years, said Martin was perhaps the foremost authority on timber rattlers, a species he studied since childhood.
As a boy, Martin found a population of timber rattlers in the Bull Run Mountains that was previously unknown, and convinced a herpetologist to come out and verify the find.
Sealy said Martin was known throughout the community of snake experts for his field work and research, and his ability to find and document a species that makes itself hard to find.
"They're extremely secretive animals," he said.
Dan Keyler, a toxicology professor at the University of Minnesota and an expert on snakebites, said a second snakebite can be more dangerous than a first for some people and rattlesnakes can be more dangerous if they grow to a size that allows them to inject more venom. Age can also be a factor in a person's susceptibility.
Martin had been bitten before in his career, but recovered.
Villari said timber rattlers tend to be docile, avoid human contact and often won't bite even if they're accidentally stepped on.
"They save their venom for their prey," he said.
Rattlesnakes usually avoid humans, but about 8,000 people are bitten by venomous snakes in the U.S. each year, with 10 to 15 deaths, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Last month, a six-year-old boy died days after he was bitten by a rattlesnake while on a family bike ride near Colorado Springs.
Fire official Derek Chambers told CBS Colorado there are several things to remember if a snake were to bite you or someone you are with.
"Stay calm, try and slow down your heart rate as much as possible, leave the bite wound lower than the heart; don't elevate," he said. "Don't put a tourniquet on it and don't try and suck out the venom, but get the … patient to a hospital as quick as possible."

About the killing of Zawahiri
Al-Ahram, Egypt, August 5
On the one-year anniversary of the American withdrawal from Afghanistan, which left America’s global reputation scarred and tarnished, we woke up to the first successful American strike against terrorism: the killing of Ayman al-Zawahiri, the head of al-Qaida. Zawahiri assumed his duties in 2011 following the killing of the former leader of the organization, Osama bin Laden, also in Pakistan. The two operations carried out by the US on Pakistani soil, the first to kill bin Laden in 2011 and the second to kill Zawahiri last week, were quite similar. The first took place under president Barack Obama, while the latter took place under President Joe Biden.
Despite the American commitment to find and eliminate these terrorists, there is no doubt that the chief victims of radical jihad have been Arabs. Indeed, our region has suffered the pain of terrorism to a far greater, longer and harsher degree. I remember when al-Zawahiri first came into the public eye in 1981 when he was put on trial for the assassination of Anwar Sadat. The Egyptian Islamic Jihad stood behind the killing that took place at a military parade. Zawahiri was sentenced to three years in prison and, following his release, he left Egypt for Afghanistan, where he planned his return. He believed that by getting rid of Sadat, the Egyptian hero of war and peace, Islamic Jihad would be able to establish its foothold in Egypt.

Islamic Jihad repeated its crimes in 1993 when it killed over 1,200 Egyptians and attempted to assassinate president Hosni Mubarak. Consequently, an Egyptian military court sentenced Zawahiri to death in absentia. The Egyptian Armed Forces also confronted Zawahiri’s forces, which sought to establish an Islamic emirate in the Sinai Peninsula.
So now the question to be asked is: Will the curtain of terrorism finally come down with the death of both bin Laden and Zawahiri? I can’t imagine that will be the case because the war on terror has multiple dimensions, many of which have nothing to do with the use of force. What we need to defeat terrorism are extensive operations that take place away from the battlefield and, most importantly, away from American television screens. – Osama Saraya
Is Europe prepared for a long, cold winter?
Al Arabiya, Saudi Arabia, August 3
It seems that the Russo-Ukrainian War will enter its fourth phase in the coming months. The first phase of the war began on February 24, when Russian forces launched an attack on Ukraine’s military bases, airstrips, command centers, and air defense systems and began advancing toward Crimea, the republics of Luhansk and Donetsk, the city of Kharkiv, and the capital Kyiv. Ukrainian forces responded by pushing Russian troops into their cities, where they had the upper hand and could slow down the attacks directed at them. This slowed down the Russian advance and caused significant Russian casualties.
Indeed, the method succeeded, especially in blocking Russia’s attack on Kyiv. From there, the Russian forces began the second phase of their offensive operations by changing the direction of their main attack toward eastern Ukraine, in the direction of Kherson, Mariupol, Donetsk and Luhansk. The Russian forces succeeded in seizing Mariupol, following a scorched-earth policy, which entailed the complete destruction of Ukrainian cities using massive firepower.
The Russians began making use of ballistic missiles like the Kinzhal, Iskander and Kalibr missiles. In response, the US and NATO equipped Ukrainian forces with the Stinger anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles, which have a short range of 3-6 km. and are used primarily for defensive purposes. America’s goal was to prolong the war and tire Russia. When Ukraine asked the US for long-range ballistic missiles, President Biden rejected this request. In my view, this was a wise decision, since the introduction of weapons that could threaten Russia’s home front would have seriously exacerbated the war.
On the economic level, the results of this war affected most countries, especially poorer Third World countries that have been disproportionately affected by the shortage of grain, particularly wheat, coming from Ukraine. Consequently, Russia found itself compelled to ease the blockade on Ukraine. Therefore, in late July, the Kremlin agreed to a safe passage agreement mediated by Turkey, under the auspices of the UN, which allows Ukrainian ships to export grains for a period of 120 days. The agreement stipulated the establishment of a center in Istanbul to monitor and inspect all movements of ships and to ensure that no weapons or military equipment is smuggled, in exchange for a Russian pledge not to attack ships carrying grain during their voyage. Meanwhile, the European Commission urged EU member countries to reduce their gas consumption by at least 15% in the coming months, in anticipation of Russia’s shrinking supply of natural gas to Europe.
Russia is currently confident about its economic conditions and has proved to the world that the economic sanctions imposed upon it have not been effective. Hence, Moscow is preparing for a long war in the coming months, which will constitute the fourth stage of this conflict: starving Europe of gas this coming winter. The question is: What will Europe do from now on to be prepared for next winter’s war? EU states are looking for quick alternatives to Russian gas, which can be implemented immediately in the coming months. Some have already contracted with alternative providers such as Italy and Algeria, while others are purchasing natural gas liquefaction stations to increase imports from Gulf countries. Regardless, everyone in Europe is now busy preparing for a cold and harsh winter, which was not taken into account when this war began. – Samir Faraj
What will Aoun say in New York about justice?
Nida Al Watan, Lebanon, August 4
What will the president of the Lebanese republic, Gen. Michel Aoun, tell UN officials during his upcoming speech before the General Assembly? When Aoun stands in front of the leaders of the free world, will he tell them about the ongoing investigation into the catastrophic crime that took place in August 2020, almost two years ago? Will he explain to them how justice is still being obstructed and no one has been held accountable to date?
Many things will happen between now and September 20, when Aoun will travel to New York. Chief among them is the fate of the indirect negotiations between Lebanon and Israel over the demarcation of the two countries’ maritime borders. The UN has a key role in enforcing any border agreement, which Aoun may address during his visit, especially if he meets Secretary-General António Guterres.
However, the key event is Aoun’s scheduled meeting with the UN’s Human Rights Council, where several international organizations concerned with human rights in Lebanon formed an international fact-finding committee for the Beirut Port disaster. If the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva responds to these organizations’ request to form the committee, what will Aoun say before the General Assembly? What will the Lebanese president tell the International Support Group for Lebanon – comprising the permanent members of the UN Security Council, Germany, Italy, the European Union, and the Arab League – about the judiciary’s decision to halt the investigation into the August 4 disaster? Does Aoun expect the victims’ families, and those who were injured and wounded in the explosion, to simply absolve the Lebanese government of any and all responsibility? – Walid Choucair
Saudi Arabia’s battle against money laundering
Al Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, August 2
Ten days ago, the Public Prosecution Office in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia issued its ruling in a money laundering case. The case included a Saudi woman, her Arab husband, and a third, foreign, partner. The accusation against the three included laundering nearly $17 million obtained from unknown sources. The woman placed her business affairs at the disposal of her husband, and the husband teamed with the foreign individual to set up a business entity that would launder the funds in exchange for $2,700 per month. The defendants were fined $13 million and sentenced to 12 years in prison, along with the confiscation of their funds. The Saudi citizen will be prevented from traveling, and her resident husband will be deported following the execution of the sentence.
Money laundering began thousands of years ago, originally in the Chinese empire, but it became a widespread phenomenon in the West with the rise of the Italian-American mobster Al Capone, who smuggled alcohol to America during Prohibition, under the Volstead Act. Capone made millions of dollars through the sale of liquor but was only prosecuted for tax evasion, since money laundering wasn’t criminalized in America until 1986.
In Saudi Arabia, the matter is governed by the Anti-Money Laundering Law issued in October 2017. The countries of the world spend $8 billion each year to combat money laundering. The percentage of cash that goes into global laundering operations is estimated at over 5% of the global economy, or nearly $4 trillion each year. Laundered money is the primary way in which terrorist groups and crime networks fund drugs and arms smuggling, organ trade and sex slaves. Indeed, laundered money has been at the center of the Pandora and Panama papers, which shed light on extensive Russian money laundering, along with the Altaf Khanani organization, which works to launder money for the benefit of al-Qaida, the Taliban, and Hezbollah, in addition to drug cartels in Mexico and Colombia.
Saudi Arabia is committed to international anti-money laundering standards. To date, the Saudi government implemented 38 out of the 40 priorities it has set for itself in the field of combating money laundering, putting it at the forefront of the Financial Action Task Force, an international group launched to develop policies to combat money laundering. It is also the only Arab country that is a member of the group. Most recently, Saudi Arabia launched four specialized committees that monitor suspicious money activity, consisting of the Central Bank, the Presidency of State Security, and the Foreign Affairs and Interior ministries, all of which work together to protect the national economy. – Badr Bin Saud

U.P.: Defaulters on power dept radar in Prayagraj
Thousands of electricity consumers who have not paid their dues for the past many years are in for trouble as the power department in Prayagraj is gearing up to snap their connections.
After disconnection, if any consumer tries to get their connection reconnected without clearing their dues, the department would also lodge named FIRs against them under relevant sections of the Electricity Distribution Act-2003, say officials.
Local power officials have started the exercise after being pulled up by Vidya Bhushan, MD, Purvanchal Vidyut Vitran Nigam Limited. As per the officials, there are a total of eight-and-a-half lakh electricity consumers in the district. Of them, about 3.5 lakh are in the city areas while the remaining are in rural areas.
There are several thousands among them who have not bothered to pay their power dues for the past many years. The defaulters include those who have not deposited electricity dues for 6 months to 10 years despite notices.
Electricity bills to the tune of lakhs of rupees remain unpaid against these consumers, they say. Confirming the planned crackdown, chief engineer Vinod Kumar said on the instructions of managing director Vidya Bhushan, instructions have been given to disconnect the power supply of consumers who have never paid the electricity bills.
“The junior engineers have been told to snap the connections of 20 defaulters every day in their respective areas. If there is negligence, action will be taken against the officials also,” Kumar said.
The UP Power Corporation Ltd’s (UPPCL) one-time settlement (OTS) scheme to recover ₹27,000 crore electricity dues in the state had failed to evoke the “desired” response from defaulters who chose not to clear their pending electricity bills before the 2022 assembly polls.
In October, 2021, UPPCL had announced the OTS seeking to waive 100% surcharge (interest) payable on electricity dues provided consumers cleared all their dues. The scheme that was applicable to farmers, domestic and commercial consumers was to be in effect between October 21 and November 30, 2021.
The scheme was, however, extended at least thrice before it finally came to an end on January 31, 2022 after the corporation made a lot of publicity to encourage defaulters to opt for the OTS but failed to get the desired results. | https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/lucknow-news/up-defaulters-on-power-dept-radar-in-prayagraj-101660327806010-amp.html | 2022-08-13T13:30:00Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/lucknow-news/up-defaulters-on-power-dept-radar-in-prayagraj-101660327806010-amp.html | false | 1 |

When Justin Toolsie heard rumours that Honda would stop production of the Civic Type R in early 2020, he began searching for one. The 36-year-old Mississauga resident has owned four Civics during the two decades since he got his driver’s licence.
“It’s got guts, it’s peppy, it’s incredibly reliable, hands down the most reliable car I’ve ever driven,” said Toolsie. “They’re incredibly good on gas.”
Knowing there were only a limited 110,000 Type Rs in the worldwide marketplace at the time, as soon as he located one in Chatham, Ont., with 30,000 kilometres on it and replaced front brakes, he bought it.
“They were hard to come by, grossly overpriced and, back then, the average sale price for a 2018 or 2019, based on my research, was about $42,000 to $45,000,” said Toolsie. He bought his 2018 model for $35,000 more than it cost when it was brand new.
“It was hard to justify the cost, but I was able to convince my wife and say it had four doors and a pretty decent trunk and it’s fun,” he said. “It’s really my grocery getter, but for those times I go to a track it’s something I put more fun into and drive for more sport purposes.”
Toolsie is not alone in his appreciation for the Honda Civic. For a car that debuted with little fanfare in the United States in 1972, and a year later in Canada, it has remained true to its original purpose of being a small, affordable automobile that gets great mileage and handles well. It has also evolved over the last 50 years, only increasing in popularity because of its speed, sleek design and ability for owners to easily modify.
“The Civic has remained true to its roots as a reliable, affordable and attractive people mover throughout its 50 years and 11 generations, while consistently staying at the top of its class and remaining popular with Canadians from a variety of lifestyles right across the country,” said Honda Canada Inc. president and CEO Jean Marc Leclerc.
“It remains one of the most well-engineered and fun cars to drive, and it panders to so many different demographics and lifestyles.”
Jason Richmond, known as HondaPro Jason on the YouTube channel he started 10 years ago, said the Civic has endured in the marketplace because it has stayed true to many of the features it first debuted with and then added more that appealed to sportier motorists.
“I think the car was a very basic car for a very long time,” said Richmond. “It did what it was engineered to do: last a long time, be great on gas mileage, be very reliable and very dependable for many years.
Richmond said when Honda first unveiled the Civic, it gained traction in North America thanks to the fuel savings from its four-cylinder engine. Its first few years on the market coincided with the 1973 oil crisis and the passing of the U.S. Energy Policy and Conservation Act in 1975, which set the first fuel economy goals, ushered in unleaded gas and set emission levels.
“The gas crunch was happening at that same time, and all the big manufacturers such as GM, Ford and Chrysler had these big engines and they were trying to figure out how to meet the standards of emissions,” Richmond said. “Honda said it could do it and without a catalytic converter, and the result was the Honda Civic.”
Honda established a Canadian manufacturing plant in Alliston, Ont., in 1988. It has been operating longer than any other Honda plant in the world currently producing the model, and more than 2.5 million units have been manufactured there.
“In the last few generations, Honda has started adding a lot more toys and features and comfort. For a while, the Civic was the base car for Honda. When they introduced the Honda Fit in 2007, it had something under it so the Civic could get a little bit larger and get some extra features. I also think the enthusiasts had a lot to do with it,” said Richmond.
Enthusiasts like Toolsie. “It’s a legend in the tuner market,” he said about owners who modify their Civics to increase their performance. While he uses his Type R for some day-to-day activities, he also races at speed ovals such as Toronto Motorsports Park and Cayuga Speedway. He’s only added 10,000 kilometres since he bought it and has added an exhaust intake.
“The idea at some point is to make it more of a track car,” Toolsie said. “You could spend $200,000 for a super sports car and I’ll spend $30,000, including tuning it, and still mop the floor with it.
“It brings a lot of joy into my life driving this. I’ve always got a smile when I’m driving this car. It’s purely fun and passion. I’ll probably never sell this car.”
As it turned out, the rumour Honda planned to stop production of the Type R turned out not to be true and — with tremendous hype — the 2023 model will arrive this fall, with a limited supply of 569 coming to Canada. Leclerc said Honda is also planning to do something special next year to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Civic in Canada. “Stay tuned,” he said.
A Civic world
Larry Lantz, president of Hanover Honda, said the Civic debuted in the 1970s when consumers were used to huge vehicles. “When it first came out it wasn’t all that interesting until it got some traction with gas prices,” he said, adding that once Honda had a few years perfecting it, the Civic became better and more desirable in North America.
For the last 24 years, the Civic has ranked among the top-selling vehicles in Canada and the best in its class. It was voted Canada’s 2002 Car of the Year by the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada, the 2022 Best Overall Car in Canada by AutoTrader Canada and the 2022 North American Car of the Year, an honour it also received in 2006 and 2016. The Civic is also Honda’s bestselling automobile, with global sales exceeding 30 million vehicles.
“Some cars look good and are good on gas, and they’ve got decent resale value but don’t handle well,” Lantz said. “The Civic has everything built into it.” | https://www.thestar.com/autos/2022/08/13/50-years-of-the-honda-civic-a-sporty-fuel-efficient-car-that-remains-popular.html | 2022-08-13T13:35:42Z | https://www.thestar.com/autos/2022/08/13/50-years-of-the-honda-civic-a-sporty-fuel-efficient-car-that-remains-popular.html | false | 1 |
PHOENIX (AP) — Arizona began moving in shipping containers to close a 1,000-foot gap in the border wall near the southern Arizona farming community of Yuma on Friday, with officials saying they were acting to stop migrants after repeated, unfulfilled promises from the Biden administration to block off the area.
The move by Arizona comes without explicit permission on federal land, with state contractors starting to move in 60-foot-long (18.3-meter-long) shipping containers and stacking two of the 9-foot-tall (2.7-meter-tall) containers on top of each other early Friday. They plan to complete the job within days, and the containers will be topped with 4 feet (1.2 meters) of razor wire, said Katie Ratlief, Republican Gov. Doug Ducey’s deputy chief of staff.
The state plans to fill three gaps in the border wall constructed during former President Donald Trump’s tenure in the coming weeks totaling 3,000 feet (914.4 meters).
“The federal government has committed to doing this, but we cannot wait for their action,” Ratlief said.
John Mennell, a spokesman for U.S. Customs and Border Protection, said the agency had just learned of Arizona’s action and “is not prepared to comment at this time.”
The move is the latest pushback by a Republican-led border state to what they contend is inaction by Democratic President Joe Biden on immigration. It was immediately prompted by the announcement of the end of the “Remain in Mexico” program that was announced this week, Ducey’s top lawyer, Annie Foster said. That program required asylum-seekers to return to Mexico and await a court date, although thousands of migrants who make it into the country were not returned.
Arizona has been sending two to three buses of asylum seekers from Yuma to Washington over the last three months to make a political statement as the number of arriving migrants overwhelmed local resources. Ducey began the program in May and has said everyone on the bus trips are going voluntarily to the capital with intended final destinations in East Coast cities.
Texas also is busing migrants to the East, and the mayors of New York and Washington sought federal help last month to deal with the influx, a request that brought a gleeful response from Republicans who say the pleas are evidence the U.S. is in an immigration crisis.
As of Aug. 11, the state of Arizona had sent 1,425 asylum seekers to Washington, according to the governor’s office.
Ducey is using $6 million for the project out of $335 million the Legislature authorized in June to construct virtual or physical fencing along the border with Mexico.
Ducey, who co-chairs the Republican Governors Association, and other GOP politicians have tapped into border security as a potent political foil in an election year. He packed a signing letter for the budget with criticism of Biden.
“Arizona will not sit idly by as the Biden administration fails to do its job and safeguard our state and nation from the clear and present danger of an unsecure border,” Ducey’s letter said.
The Biden Administration announced late last month that it had authorized completion of the Trump-funded U.S.-Mexico border wall near Yuma. The area has become one of the busiest corridors for illegal crossings, and they planned to fill in four wide gaps. Arizona officials said they did not know why there was a discrepancy between the three gaps they identified and the federal government’s plans.
Biden had pledged during his campaign to cease all future wall construction, but the administration later agreed to some barriers, citing safety. The Department of Homeland Security planned work to close four wide gaps in the wall near Yuma to better protect migrants who can slip down a slope or drown walking through a low section of the Colorado River.
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas authorized completion of the project near the Morelos Dam in July, a move officials said reflected the administration’s “priority to deploy modern, effective border measures and also improving safety and security along the Southwest Border.”
Arizona points to a rising number of migrants coming into the state and accompanying drug smuggling as a major reason for their action. Agents stopped migrants more than 160,000 times from January through June in the Yuma sector, nearly quadruple from the same period last year. The only other Border Patrol sectors with more traffic were Del Rio and Rio Grande Valley in South Texas.
Despite the federal promise to fill in the gaps, Arizona officials said no action had been taken to actually close the gaps. The federal government apparently put the project out to bid this week, but that may takes weeks or months.
Foster said he decided to act even if the federal government later objects.
“At this point, we are closing that gap and we’ll figure out the consequences as we move forward,” Foster said at a briefing for reporters. “But bottom line is that the federal government has a duty to protect the states — that’s part of the contract, that’s part of the constitution. They failed to do that.” | https://www.8newsnow.com/news/politics/ap-politics/arizona-wont-wait-for-feds-starts-filling-border-wall-gaps/ | 2022-08-13T13:40:16Z | https://www.8newsnow.com/news/politics/ap-politics/arizona-wont-wait-for-feds-starts-filling-border-wall-gaps/ | true | 39 |

Coronavirus FAQ: I’m confused by the new testing advice! Do it once, twice … thrice?
So you had dinner – indoors – with a friend and the next day got a call from your dining companion: “I hate to tell you – but I’m now testing positive for COVID.” Uh oh, did you catch it from your friend?
Or you wake up in the middle of the night with a scratchy throat, a cough and a feeling that your head is going to float off your neck. Could it be COVID?
In both these scenarios, the question about whether or not you have COVID can be answered by a self-test or a PCR test. Many people opt for the self-test option since you can now easily pick up self-tests and get an answer in 15 minutes in the comfort of your home.
But if you take an at-home test and it’s negative … are you really in the clear?
That’s a question the CDC and the FDA are addressing in guidance issued yesterday on COVID protocols. And there’s a little bit of confusion.
The CDC says that if you were exposed to COVID, “instead of quarantining” you should wear a “high-quality mask for 10 days and get tested on day 5. If that test is negative, the CDC thinks you’re good to go. And if you think you are sick and that it might be COVID-19, “isolate” until you get test results. The CDC states: “If your results are negative, you can end your isolation.”
The FDA, however, now says that one negative test isn’t enough. Here’s what the FDA advised in a “safety communication” released on August 11: If you have symptoms, you should take another test 48 hours later. If you don’t have symptoms, you should take three tests, each 48 hours apart. Only if all those tests are negative should you consider yourself to be COVID-free.
And the FDA isn’t the only one to think repeat testing is the way to go. Infectious disease experts agree that the only way to be sure you don’t have COVID after a negative home test, is to test again – either with another home test or a more sensitive PCR.
Okay… so why am I being asked to redo my home tests if they’re negative?
We get it, repeat testing isn’t the most convenient thing. The problem is that those home tests aren’t especially sensitive at the beginning of a COVID infection.
“There is a recognition that [at-home rapid antigen tests] are less sensitive than PCR tests,” says Dr. Apurv Soni, professor at the University of Massachusetts School of Medicine. “But it’s not that they don’t work, it’s just that we need a better understanding of what an effective testing regimen should be.”
The FDA made its recommendations based on a yearlong study it did in collaboration with the NIH and University of Massachusetts School of Medicine that was released preprint on medRxiv on August 6.
That study showed that if you take a home test on the day you get a COVID infection, there’s a good chance it’s going to come back negative – meaning you could be infectious but a home test won’t yet show it.
“The data very convincingly show” that if you take another test or two, you can be pretty sure if you have COVID or not, says Soni, who was the lead author on that paper.
Soni says, “If you are concerned about having an infection and you have symptoms, you should take two tests 48 hours apart. If you do not have symptoms, you should take three tests, one every 48 hours. That’s it.”
So why aren’t home tests great at picking up COVID infections? I thought that’s what they were supposed to do.
Okay, so now that we know officially know that a single at-home rapid test isn’t particularly great at detecting an early case of COVID, the question is: Why not?
Scientists estimate that 95% of the U.S. population has some amount of immunity to COVID due to vaccination or previous infection.
“We’re more immune to the virus than we were in 2020,” says Soni. “So the way your body reacts to the virus is different than it was in 2020. Antigen tests [home tests] are really good at detecting infection when the viral load is above a certain threshold.” But because of the various degrees of immunity most people now have, “the rate at which the viral load increases in your body is slower.”
After another few days though, the amount of virus in your body will probably be high enough to be picked up by a home test.
Does the FDA recommendation to repeat test have anything to do with omicron or the new subvariants?
The good news is that it doesn’t seem like omicron is having any effect on the sensitivity of the tests. “The currently known variants do not affect the result of the rapid test,” says Meriem Bekliz, postdoctoral researcher in emerging viruses at the University of Geneva.
Bekliz is the lead author on a paper published on August 8 in Microbiology Spectrum showing that there’s not a difference in how a home test picks up the delta variant and the first subvariant of omicron, BA.1.
But what about the new BA.4 and BA.5 variants? New research shows that those variants are particularly adept at evading your immune system, but are they just as good at evading detection from your at-home rapid tests?
“The rapid home antigen-based tests can detect [all the] omicron subvariants,” says Dr. Preeti Malani, professor of medicine at the University of Michigan. “The home tests do not rely on the spike protein, which is where the mutations occur in variants.”
The spike protein is what our immune system looks for to identify and neutralize COVID. It’s what many of the vaccines are based on. And its why changes in the spike protein have allowed new variants of COVID to somewhat evade detection by our vaccine-primed immune systems.
The home rapid antigen tests detect a different protein, the nucleocapsid. And all of the omicron subvariants have the same version of the nucleocapsid. What does that mean? “Theoretically, there should be no difference in detection sensitivity between omicron BA.1 and its sub-variants [including BA.4/BA.5],” Bekliz says.
What if after two tests 48 hours apart, I’m still sick and still testing negative?
So yeah, maybe you just don’t have COVID. “There may be an alternative virus or even a bacterial infection like strep throat, causing illness and not COVID,” says Malani.
Still, two negative tests 48 hours apart isn’t 100% definitive. “Besides repeating the home test, you can also consider testing with PCR,” Malani says.
PCR tests are more sensitive to lower viral loads than the at-home rapid antigen tests. So if you take a PCR test while sick and it comes back negative, then you can be fairly comfortable knowing it’s not COVID.
However, just because you don’t have COVID doesn’t mean you are OK to head into the office. “If you are ill, whether due to COVID or some other virus, you should stay away from others,” says Malani.
So does this really mean if I have dinner with a friend who then tells me they have COVID that I need to test three times over six days?
This is where things get a bit tricky. Even Soni admits that testing for that long, “is a little impractical.” But he also says: “If you do repeat a test [ahead of whatever social event you want to go to] that gives you the highest confidence that you’re not infected and therefore not passing infection on to others.”

Scots care trio cleared of ‘neglecting’ residents after taking them to male strip show
A trio of care workers who took vulnerable residents to a male strip show to fill a bucket list request have been cleared of criminal charges.
The workers - who took residents in a minibus to the saucy show - were found not guilty of "ill-treating or wilfully neglecting" the care home residents.
One resident complained about the drunken trip the following morning after being shocked when a naked male stripper clambered over her wheelchair.
Lisa Dolan, 48, said she had never been to a strip show before and had expected it to be just like the movie The Full Monty.
But she told Dundee Sheriff Court she had to smack the young stripper on the bottom to get rid of him as he stood completely naked in front of her.
She told a trial of the three carers that she felt "vulnerable" and was shocked that the show was much more graphic with full-on nudity than she was prepared for.
She said accused trio Caitlin Gibb, Shannon Briggs and Samantha Brunton became "happy" during the evening and were seen buying drinks at the bar in Baxter's.
However, after hearing Crown evidence in the case, Sheriff David Hall brought the case to an end by formally acquitting the trio of any wrongdoing.
Miss Dolan said the trip had been organised by the Linlathen Neurodisability Centre in Dundee after a former resident put it on her bucket list of things to do.
Gibb, 22, Speckled Wood Court, Shannon Briggs, 25, Finlarig Place, and Samantha Brunton, 36, Balunie Avenue, all Dundee, had denied the charge.

All three were alleged to have "ill-treated or wilfully neglected" two patients in their care by taking them out of the centre in the run up to Christmas 2018.
They were alleged to have attended the Linlathen centre while they were under the influence of alcohol on 1 December and taken Sandra McGowan and Lisa Dolan out.
They were alleged to have conveyed the two patients to an adult entertainment show at Baxter's and allowed them to consume alcohol from the bar without supervision.
The accused were alleged to have consumed alcohol and failed to properly care for the duo.
It was alleged they allowed a "naked, male, adult entertainer to sit on the knee" of one woman while she was in her wheelchair.
Miss Dolan told the court: "What I expected was what I had seen on TV.
" I was expecting it to be like The Full Monty so I did go thinking it would be like that, but it wasn't.
"He was sitting in the chair with Caitlin.
"Then, all of a sudden, she stood up and I didn't realise he was coming towards me.
"I was trying to push him away, but I couldn't because he came that quick.
"He put his legs over me, he was facing me, and there wasn't a stitch on.
"He put his legs over the side of my chair and sat on my knee which I didn't know was going to happen.
"I was actually shocked that happened.
"He had his full front in my face.
"I tried to push him away.
"I pushed his bum to get him away.
"I smacked his bum and he moved away.
"The next morning I went straight to report it and said I will never go to a strip club again.
"It was just not appropriate."
She told the court she was "a wee bit drunk" by the end of the evening and felt that the three accused had not been looking after her in the club.
She said that she had reported her concerns to the home - which had provided its official minibus for the trip - the following morning when she woke up.

The average cost of car insurance varies widely by state and provider, so drivers may struggle to figure out whether their rates are fair. Our team has looked at standard costs for auto coverage across multiple factors, and we’ll reveal our findings below.
The easiest way to find the average cost of car insurance for your vehicle is to compare car insurance quotes from providers. That way, you’ll be able to see exactly how much each company plans to charge for the best car insurance protection.
What’s the Average Cost of Car Insurance Across the Country?
Americans pay an average of $1,730 per year for full-coverage car insurance, which comes out to just over $144 per month. If this rate seems a bit high, know that drivers can take advantage of car insurance discounts to reduce their rates.
Factors That Affect the Average Cost of Car Insurance
Auto insurance premiums vary significantly based on the factors below:
- Credit score: People with poor credit scores pay more for car insurance in most states.
- Deductible amount: The higher your auto insurance deductible, the lower your rates will likely be.
- Coverage limits: Car insurance premiums for full coverage are much higher than those for state-minimum coverage.
- Driving record: Drivers usually pay far higher prices if they have DUIs or speeding tickets or have been at fault for accidents.
- Bundling options: Those who bundle auto insurance with coverage such as renters or homeowners insurance may find cheaper rates.
- Age, gender, and marital status: Young drivers, singles, and male motorists typically pay higher rates than drivers who are older, married, and female.
- Location: Drivers usually receive higher insurance quotes if they live in states with extensive coverage requirements or areas with large numbers of thefts, accidents, and uninsured drivers.
- Vehicle make, model, and age: Older models may have more affordable replacement parts but lack newer safety features. Vehicles with poor safety ratings tend to have pricey coverage policies. While the Toyota Corolla and Ram 1500 are typically pricey to cover, the Honda CR-V and Ford Escape are two of the models with the cheapest car insurance rates.
Car insurance that offers more extensive protection than the state minimums for bodily injury liability and property damage liability coverage is more expensive. However, drivers are highly encouraged to add the following types of coverage to reduce costs and stress after an accident:
- Collision insurance
- Comprehensive insurance
- Uninsured motorist coverage
- Personal injury protection insurance (PIP) or medical payments coverage (MedPay)
Since car insurance companies calculate rates based on many variables, it’s difficult to determine your potential costs without comparing quotes from providers. Using online quote calculators can help you figure out how much you might spend.
Average Cost of Car Insurance by State
Because each state sets its own minimum coverage requirements, where you live strongly influences how much you’ll spend for auto insurance coverage.
Below, you’ll find the average cost of car insurance for each state in the nation. Note that these numbers are for a 35-year-old driver with a clean driving record and good credit seeking full coverage car insurance.
States With the Lowest Average Cost of Car Insurance
The following states tend to have the nation’s lowest average cost of full-coverage car insurance:
- Maine: $964 per year
- Ohio: $1,027 per year
- Vermont: $1,056 per year
- Idaho: $1,069 per year
- Virginia: $1,142 per year
- Iowa: $1,181 per year
- Wisconsin: $1,219 per year
- Tennessee: $1,281 per year
- Indiana: $1,332 per year
- Oregon: $1,334 per year

- Connecticut: $2,999 per year
- Florida: $2,947 per year
- New York: $2,783 per year
- Louisiana: $2,783 per year

- Delaware: $2,169 per year
- Nevada: $2,149 per year
- California: $2,089 per year
- New Jersey: $2,037 per year
Average Cost of Car Insurance by Provider
Auto insurance companies don’t all have the same premiums for full-coverage policies, either. Drivers looking for cheap car insurance should consider the providers below, which all have annual rates below the national average of $1,730 per year:
Generally, the cheapest auto insurance providers available across the entire country are USAA, GEICO, State Farm, and Progressive. Drivers who live in regions with Erie Insurance and Auto-Owners Insurance may want to consider car insurance quotes from them as well.
Cheapest Car Insurance Provider by State
While the providers above usually offer a low average cost of car insurance, you’ll need to look at your state to determine the best options. Below, you’ll find the cheapest auto insurance providers for each state and their average rates.
Keep in mind that USAA is only available for military members, veterans, and their families. Those who don’t qualify for the provider’s coverage will likely find competitive rates from other leading car insurance companies, such as State Farm, GEICO, and Progressive.
Average Cost of Car Insurance by Driver Profile
Your car insurance rates will vary considerably based on your driving history and credit score. We’ll cover average rates for different types of drivers to give you a better idea of what your costs could be.
Average Cost of Car Insurance for Good Drivers
With most of the popular providers, the average cost of car insurance for good drivers is well below the national average of $1,730 per year. The one exception is Allstate, which offers rate estimates of $2,429 per year for full-coverage car insurance.
Average Cost of Car Insurance for Young Drivers
Teen drivers and other young motorists generally spend more than the national average for full-coverage car insurance. Our rate estimates from USAA and GEICO still come out as less than $1,730 per year, though.
Average Cost of Car Insurance for Drivers With a Recent Accident
A recent accident typically increases a driver’s average cost of car insurance, though USAA and State Farm offer estimates lower than the average national rate of $1,730 per year.
Average Cost of Car Insurance for Drivers With a Recent DUI
It’s very difficult to find an affordable average cost of car insurance if you have a DUI on your recent driving record. None of the providers in our research offer rate estimates below the national average, though State Farm, Erie, and Progressive have competitive options.
Average Cost of Car Insurance for Drivers With Poor Credit
Having a poor credit score limits the availability of low auto insurance prices, with the average cost of car insurance for bad credit sitting well above $1,730 per year. USAA and GEICO still offer rates that aren’t extremely far above the national average, though.
Companies With a Relatively Low Average Cost of Car Insurance
The easiest way to find your average price for auto coverage is to compare car insurance quotes online. Doing so lets you consider each provider’s offerings to determine which policies best suit your needs.
Many drivers find competitive rates from USAA, State Farm, and GEICO. All three car insurance providers are available across the country and offer quality auto insurance policies with relatively affordable rates.
USAA: Best for Military Families
Average car insurance cost: $1,054 per year
Better Business Bureau (BBB) rating: A+
AM Best financial strength rating: A++
Turn to USAA if you’re in the military, a veteran, or in the family of a service member. The company offers the lowest average cost of car insurance among all providers and is known for outstanding service. Motorists with DUIs may be better served by a different company though, as USAA only ranks average for costs with those drivers.
For more about the company, read our USAA auto insurance review.
State Farm: Best for Student Drivers
Average car insurance cost: $1,481 per year
BBB rating: A
AM Best financial strength rating: A++
Drivers often turn to State Farm for relatively cost-effective car insurance policies that come with many discount opportunities. Our research shows that high-risk drivers with recent DUIs and accidents can find reasonable rates from State Farm. The company’s local presence makes it easy to build strong relationships with agents as well.
Check out our State Farm car insurance review for more details.
GEICO: Best Overall
Average car insurance cost: $1,308 per year
BBB rating: A+
AM Best financial strength rating: A++
GEICO is known for its affordable rates and impressive range of coverage. The company’s sterling financial strength rating means it won’t have issues covering your claim if you get in an accident. GEICO doesn’t have the strongest claims process though, as seen by its near-average score in the J.D. Power 2021 U.S. Auto Claims Satisfaction StudySM.

The new school year is underway and so are new federal guidelines to curb the spread of COVID-19.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released updated recommendations on Thursday, largely loosening virus protocols and leaving much of the decision-making to individuals and local officials.
The changes to the existing guidance are a reflection of the country's sweeping immunity. Around 95% of the population have some immunity due to a combination of vaccination and past infections, according to Greta Massetti, a senior epidemiologist at the CDC.
"We also have a better understanding of how to protect people from being exposed to the virus," Massetti said in a statement. "This guidance acknowledges that the pandemic is not over, but also helps us move to a point where COVID-19 no longer severely disrupts our daily lives."
Health measures will probably look different depending on the school district, but here are some things to know about best practices recommended by the CDC.
Universal indoor masking is recommended in nearly half the country
The CDC calls on students and staff members to wear "well-fitting" masks at school if they live in communities where COVID-19 community transmission levels are high. As of Thursday, that accounts for nearly 40% of counties in the U.S., including Los Angeles, Nashville and most of Florida.
In general, students who are sick from or exposed to the virus should wear face coverings for 10 days, regardless of whether they have been vaccinated or previously infected. The latest guidance also advise people to put on a mask while in the school nurse's office or other health care settings.
The CDC asked school administrators to ensure that masking polices accommodate students with disabilities or those who are immunocompromised.
"Students with immunocompromising conditions or other conditions or disabilities that increase risk for getting very sick with COVID-19 should not be placed into separate classrooms or otherwise segregated from other students," the agency said.
Routine testing is no longer recommended, with some exceptions
The agency no longer recommends routine testing in K-12 schools unless COVID-19 community transmission levels are high in the area.
If that's the case, school administrators should consider implementing health screens for "high-risk activities" like close-contact sports, band and theater. Large events like prom, tournaments and field trips should also incorporate testing or possibly be rescheduled if infection rates become concerning. The same rules apply for the first day back after the holidays and other vacation breaks, according to the CDC.
When it comes to testing, the new guidelines also make no distinction between vaccinated or unvaccinated people — which is a sharp difference from previous rules.
Quarantine requirements are dropped
Similar to routine testing, the CDC is no longer advising students or staff members who are exposed to the virus to quarantine. Instead, the agency's new advice is that people who were exposed wear face coverings for 10 days and get tested.
Because of the testing and quarantine policy changes, the CDC says that "test-to-stay" programs, which required exposed unvaccinated students to get tested frequently in order to attend school, are no longer necessary.
That being said, the agency urges schools to allow for "flexible, non-punitive and supportive" paid sick leave policies as well as allow for excused absences when students are sick.
"Avoid policies that incentivize coming to school while sick, and support children who are learning at home if they are sick," the new guidelines say.
What to do if you or your student is sick
Students and staff members who experience symptoms like a cough, fever or sore throat should head home and get tested immediately, the CDC said. For people who are at risk of getting severely ill from COVID-19, the agency recommends consulting their doctor.
Those who test positive should isolate at home for at least five days. Afterward, isolation depends on whether they continue to exhibit symptoms or test positive for the virus.
Students and staff members sick with the virus don't have to get a negative test result to end isolation, but it could shorten the number of days they should wear a mask after getting sick.
But generally, the CDC recommends students and staff continue wearing a mask for 10 days after symptoms began to show.

Others said they enjoyed the return of Denise's innuendos - a staple of her stint at the helm of the television sensation.
One fan posted a meme of celebrating technicians with the caption: 'Denise van Outen with some classic innuendo' to laud the wordplay.
Overall the return of the classic series was welcomed by long-term fans - with Denise's return particularly celebrated.
One fan wrote: Seeing Denise van Outen on The Big Breakfast is giving me so many memories right now. Lovely to have the show back.'
Another waxed: 'Absolutely loved seeing Denise van Outen back in the Big Breakfast house, I really like how the new Big Breakfast has kept so much to its original traditions, it's like it's never been away.'
During the show, Big Breakfast favourites Zig and Zag returned to share a sweet message with their 'TV mum' Denise.
Catching up! Denise hung out with Ekin-Su and Davide as they revealed plans for their show
Revival: The iconic Nineties show has been revamped with AJ Odudu and Mo Gilligan (pictured) at the helm after the pair hosted a one-off special last year as part of Channel 4 ’s Black To Front project
The iconic Nineties show has been revamped with AJ Odudu and Mo Gilligan at the helm after the pair hosted a one-off special last year as part of Channel 4’s Black To Front project.
Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Davide Sanclimenti announced that they will star in their own reality show, during the episode.
The Love Island winners, both 27, revealed they will be filmed by ITV2 cameras as they embark on road trips together of their native countries, Turkey and Italy.
Soap actress Ekin-Su joked that the pair would be 'fighting and cooking' for audiences, claiming the programme will be a 'blend of two cultures'.
'It will be all real... fighting, cooking!' Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Davide Sanclimenti will star in their own reality show, they announced during the episode
Italian Stallion Davide said on the morning programme: 'I can tell this. We are going on a road trip to Italy and Turkey so one week in Italy, one week in Turkey. We are going to be on ITV2 so it's going to be like our own programme.'
Ekin-Su added: 'It will be all real, fighting, I'll be cooking for him, he'll be cooking for me. It will be two cultures.'
Davide concluded: 'We'll be meeting family, it's going to be nice,' before presenter AJ Odudu told them: 'You're going on the trip and we get to go with you!'
Elsewhere, the Manchester resident almost let blab that he would be moving in with his girlfriend, although she quickly shushed him.
'You can't ask that yet,' she awkwardly told Denise Van Outen, before adding, 'Maybe soon.'
Speaking out: Melvin Odoom called for more representation in the TV industry ahead of the launch of The Big Breakfast's diverse reboot
Former Strictly star Melvin, 42, appeared in the special and will also feature on the new series in a move he praised for promoting racial diversity on screen.
Asked how it felt to take part in the Black to Front initiative, which saw Channel 4's entire schedule led by black talent on and off screen for one day, he said: 'We made history.
'Put it this way - when I was growing up I remember telling my mum I wanted to be a presenter and that was hard for her to process because there weren't many examples of black talent on TV.
'You probably had Lenny Henry and Trevor McDonald - two guys! Look at the plethora of talent that we have in the world right now.'
Guess who's back: The Nineties show has been revamped with AJ Odudu and Mo Gilligan at the helm after they hosted a one-off special last year for Channel 4’s Black To Front project
He continued: 'There were two black men on TV at the time who my mum could reference, so she couldn't fathom the idea of me becoming a TV presenter. That's why representation is so important.
'Never in my life have I seen a breakfast show with that amount of amazing black talent in one space.
'You have one or two amazing black presenters on other channels at breakfast, but to have one show with that amount of black talent on television? You name me one. You'll struggle, and it shouldn't be a struggle. What we did that day was make history.'
Melvin said: 'When I was growing up I remember telling my mum I wanted to be a presenter and that was hard for her to process because there weren't many examples of black talent on TV'
Discussing how the TV industry has fared with representation since then, Melvin added: 'I think it's opened their eyes because, if I'm completely honest, people are scared.
'People are scared because we live in a world where people don't really like change. Change is scary and everything is about money, figures, and audiences.
'So if you are driven by audience numbers and other figures, you're going to stick to what you know - you're going to go for the formats and presenters which are the fail-safe roads to go down.
'But, truly, there's so much talent. I'm not just saying it's black people - there are Asian people, disabled people, and people from the LGBTQ+ community who are all capable of doing a job. My rule has always been to get the best person for the job.
'It doesn't matter what they look like or where they're from, just get the best person for the job. The Black to Front initiative opened everyone's eyes to realise they can change things up drastically and it can still work. Stop being scared.'
Revived: The revamp will see Judi Love back grilling guests in the On The Bed Interview
Exciting: Harriet Rose will be out and about on the streets playing Hot Sausage with members of the public and Big Breakfast newsreader Phil Gayle returns to deliver the headlines
Meanwhile, in a chat with The Guardian, host Mo said: 'It reflects the changing face of our society.
'Of course, there will be some people that are still stuck in their ways – "Two black presenters? They're taking over!" – but there's also people who genuinely want to see different faces and voices on TV.'
Co-host AJ added: 'People should be seen and represented, that's very important to me. We've got that diversity on the show now, we've got a range of characters.'
The revamp will see Judi Love back grilling guests in the On The Bed Interview, Melvin and Harriet Rose will be out and about on the streets of the UK playing Hot Sausage with members of the public and Big Breakfast newsreader Phil Gayle returns to deliver the morning’s headlines.
As well as features and games, Mo and AJ will be joined by Oscar and Bafta winning actor, Daniel Kaluuya, singer Rita Ora, Big Breakfast legend Denise Van Outen, comedian Joel Dommett, rap sensation Aitch and chef Big Has with more guest names to be announced.
Prior to the Black To Front special The Big Breakfast last aired in 2001 with Denise and and Johnny Vaughan,as the hosts.

Aston Villa earned their first win of the season on Saturday with a well-fought 2-1 victory over Everton at Villa Park.
In scorching conditions, Steven Gerrard's side took the lead in the first half through Danny Ings' left-footed strike. The three points looked almost certain in the 85 minute when Emi Buendia tapped home after replacing Philippe Coutinho.
The Toffees replied immediately through a Lucas Digne own goal and were denied by Emiliano Martinez on various occasions. Anthony Gordon and Amadou Onana both failed to take their chances as Villa continued their good run against Everton.

Following the game, Villa fans expressed their delight at the victory, but agreed that there's room for improvement. Here's what they have had to say on Twitter...
@Harry_VTID: It weren’t pretty but a win is a win. Buendia has to start next week though.
@AndreGenovese27: Football is simple. Play Buendia, and your team plays better.
@jbnvna: Good 3 points. Cash MOTM for me. Ramsey and Mings had a good game. Buendia needs to start.
@GaryBolton91: Jesus Christ! That stoppage time was just as scary as the 7 minutes in the Playoff final. We got the W. That's all we could have asked for.
@scott_5254: Obviously great to get the win but made it so much harder for ourselves than we needed to. Looked so nervy at the back in the last 5/10 minutes. A better team 100% make us pay. So much work needed.
@Holte_ender1: Buendia changes the pace and dictates everything we do. He must start. Great block by Mings towards the end btw. UTV!
@DevonianR9: We make things difficult don't we?
@b_z_p1: The most Villa game you'll see! The 3 points is all that matters. Better performance today, shambolic ending from our perspective.

Pipeline break spills 45,000 gallons of diesel in Wyoming
A pipeline carrying diesel fuel has cracked open and spilled more than 45,000 gallons of diesel fuel in a rural area of eastern Wyoming
Pipeline break spills 45,000 gallons of diesel in Wyoming
Show all 2A diesel pipeline in Wyoming owned by a company that's being sued by federal prosecutors over previous spills in two other states cracked open and released more than 45,000 gallons (205,000 liters) of fuel, a state official said Friday.
Cleanup work is ongoing from the spill that was discovered by the pipeline's operator on July 27, said Joe Hunter, Emergency Response Coordinator with the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality. The fuel spilled on private ranchland near the small community of Sussex in eastern Wyoming, he said.
Contaminated soil was being excavated and placed into a temporary staging area, and it will be spread onto a nearby dirt road where the fuel is expected to largely evaporate, Hunter said.
The line is operated by Bridger Pipeline, a subsidiary of Casper-based True companies, according to an accident report submitted to the U.S. Coast Guard's National Response Center.
The company initially reported only 420 gallons (1,590 liters) had spilled, but later revised its estimate to 45,150 gallons (205,250 liters), according to a National Response Center database.
True and its subsidiaries have a long history of spills. In May, federal prosecutors in Montana alleged that representatives of Bridger Pipeline had concealed from regulators problems with a pipeline that broke beneath the Yellowstone River near the city of Glendive in 2015. The break spewed more than 50,000 gallons (240,000 liters) of crude into the river and fouled Glendive's drinking water supply.
In North Dakota, federal prosecutors and the state Attorney General's Office are pursuing parallel claims of environmental violations against a second True companies subsidiary responsible for a 2016 spill that released more than 600,000 gallons (2.7 million liters) of crude, contaminating the Little Missouri River and a tributary.
Representatives of the companies have denied violating pollution laws and rejected claims that problems with the Montana line were concealed from federal regulators.
The Wyoming spill was caused by a crack at a weld in the line, said Hunter, who did not know how long it was leaking before being discovered. The spilled fuel did not appear to reach any waterways and no enforcement actions for environmental violations were planned, he said.
“I'm not saying there wouldn't be any down the road but for right now there won't be" any enforcement actions by the state, Hunter said. “It's an older pipeline and it's one of those things that happen.”
True companies did not immediately return telephone messages seeking comment.
Kenneth Clarkson with the Pipeline Safety Trust, a Bellingham, Washington-based group that advocates for safer pipelines, said a thorough investigation into the spill's cause needs to conducted.
“It’s frustrating to hear of another spill by Bridger Pipeline LLC," Clarkson said. "This spill of 45,000-plus gallons of diesel into rural Wyoming negatively impacts the environment, wildlife, and surrounding communities.”
Violations of pipeline safety regulations would be handled separately and could fall under jurisdiction of the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, part of the U.S. Department of Transportation. Officials from the agency did not immediately respond to questions about the spill.
Bridger last year reached a $2 million settlement with the federal government and Montana over damages from the Yellowstone River spill. The company was previously fined $1 million in the case by the Montana Department of Environmental Quality.

Chandigarh: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in Punjab on Saturday issued a notification giving pension to former MLAs only for one term after the governor Banwarilal Purohit gave his assent to the Bill limiting multiple pensions of the legislators.
From now on, a legislator would get only one pension of Rs 75,150 per month irrespective of the terms for which he or she gets elected. While it is a 117-member state assembly, there are about 300 former MLAs in Punjab who are drawing pension, some getting pensions as high as Rs 3 lakh per month.
With this Act coming into force, the state government would save around Rs 19.53 crore annually with this move.
It may be recalled that the AAP decision is in line with the demand it raised as the then main opposition party during the previous Congress-led government’s tenure in the state.
The AAP which came to power registering a landslide win in the state assembly polls in February this year – 92 seats out of the total 117 - had passed the Punjab state legislature members (pension and medical facilities regulation) amendment Bill, 2022, on June 30, last paving the way for a single pension of Rs 75,150 a month to each legislator irrespective of his or her terms.
Even though chief minister Bhagwant Mann had announced the plan to limit multiple pensions of the MLAs soon after he took charge in March this year, it took over four months for the Act to be notified. It may be recalled that the governor had earlier refused to give his assent to an ordinance to this effect asking the government to put up a Bill in the budget session of the assembly which passed a Bill on June 30, last. The delay, however, cost the state exchequer a few crores of rupees as the former MLAs got multiple pensions till July.

Shakira Wants To Move To Miami And Quit Breakup, Spain Tax Cheat Rap

Shakira Rejects Prosecutors’ Offer, Faces Tax Lawsuit Gloria Estefan Shades Jennifer Lopez Amid Super Bowl ‘Halftime’ Comments
“Whenever, wherever” – how about Miami?
Sources have told Page Six that Colombian superstar Shakira, 45, wants to leave Barcelona and live full-time in Miami, leaving personal issues that haunt her behind.
Not only is she in the midst of a controversial breakup and custody battle with the father of her children, FC Barcelona footballer Gerard Pique, 35, but the ‘Hips Don’t Lie’ singer is also at risk. up to eight years in prison after Spanish authorities charged her with tax evasion.
Barcelona is proving to be a place of bad memories.
In Miami Beach, she has family and close friends to rally around her and provide much-needed support. Plus, a very private and lavish waterfront mansion. Family friend and estate agent of Douglas Elliman, Ana Lourdes Martinez calls the city Shakira’s “refuge”.
“Miami is her home,” Martinez, who works with Shakira’s brother, Antonio, on the singer’s local real estate, told The Post. “His parents live here, his brother lives here, his niece and nephew too. She has no family in Spain. It is a different environment from Barcelona.
In June, Shakira split from star soccer partner Gerard Pique after 11 years – and two children – together. Pique’s alleged alliances with at least two women apparently led to the breakup.AP
Friends like fellow musician Alejandro Sanz — her ‘La Tortura’ duet partner — reportedly tried to convince Shakira to take her talents to South Beach, and other sources close to the singer confirm her desire to move to the Sunshine State. .
Leaving Barcelona, where she first bought a house in 2012, would help her move away from the swirling gossip about Pique and his alleged infidelities.
Leading up to their split, Pique – Shakira’s partner for 11 years and father of their sons Milan, 9, and Sasha, 7 – reportedly sent private messages to other women, including Brazilian model Suzy Cortez, aka Miss BoomBum , and secretly dated Clara Chia Marti, a 23-year-old public relations student, for months.

Shakira and Pique announced their separation in June. The power couple met in 2010 at the World Cup in South Africa. She was there to perform ‘Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)’ as he played for his home country Spain, the winning team that year. The two share the same birthday (February 2), but Shakira is 10 years older. Two months after meeting Pique, Shakira split from Antonio de la Rúa, the son of former Argentine president Fernando de la Rúa and her boyfriend of 10 years, although she has reportedly only started dating. the football star only the following year.
Now, as the custody battle escalates between Shakira and Pique, the children are back in Barcelona and staying in their father’s bachelor pad. A temporary truce granted him custody for half the month, after Shakira took them on a whirlwind trip to Miami, Los Angeles and Mexico.

The estranged couple may end up fighting over their considerable real estate. In addition to a mansion in Miami Beach, they own an eight-bedroom villa in the Cap St. Georges resort in Cyprus, purchased in 2019, and a seven-bedroom house in Barcelona’s exclusive Pedralbes neighborhood. Despite its cozy accommodations, Shakira never became attached to this city or to Pique’s inner circle. Her friends would call her “La Patrona” (“The Boss”) behind her back.
Also among Shakira’s portfolio is Bonds Cay, a private island in the Bahamas she bought for $15 million with Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters. The business partners planned to turn the paradise into an artists’ retreat with luxury hotels, condos, galleries and studios, but never developed the land. Currently, the 550-acre island is still uninhabited.
But tax issues could hurt the singer’s $300 million net worth.

Shakira, born Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll, allegedly failed to pay $14.7 million in taxes between 2012 and 2014. In addition to jail time, there is also the looming threat of a $23.5 million fine. dollars if found guilty. Sources say Shakira is convinced of her innocence but disappointed with the smear campaign.
“Shakira has always cooperated with and obeyed the law,” her public relations representative told the Post, “demonstrating impeccable conduct as an individual and a taxpayer, and faithfully following the advice of PriceWaterhouse Coopers, a prestigious and globally recognized tax firm. . Unfortunately, the Spanish tax authorities, which lose one out of two lawsuits with their taxpayers, continue to violate their rights and pursue a new baseless case. Shakira is confident that her innocence will be proven by the end of the legal proceedings. »
The singer has already paid 17.5 million dollars to the Spanish tax authorities to settle her obligation.

Sources told The Post that Shakira isn’t worried about going to jail.
“It’s something the Spanish tax authorities are known to do to the wealthy,” an insider said. “It’s more of an annoyance than anything else. »
No wonder friends encouraged her to leave bad memories of Spain behind and move to the United States.
When she is in Miami, Shakira keeps a low profile, preferring the company of her family to the clubs.

“Shakira is a very family-oriented person,” Martinez described. “She’s not going to a party with a bunch of friends. No, they meet at her house for barbecues and family activities. This is a home built for entertaining. The kids love being here and being with their abuelos.
And, as her parents get older, there are good reasons for the singer to stay close.
Shakira’s father, William Mebarak Chadid, 90, suffered a bad fall earlier this year. Concerned about her father’s state of health, Shakira dedicated a post to him on Instagram. “You taught us to get up after every fall and this time we know you will do it again,” she posted on July 9. The nonagenarian is said to be on the mend.

Not only do Shakira’s parents live in Miami, but her half-brother Antonio does as well. The siblings are very close and “Tonino” is said to be his confidant.
“It’s all about his kids. His children come before his career,” Martinez said. “His family comes first. Her mother is still with her and Tonino too.
The singer’s brother is a real estate agent who shared the listing for his North Bay mansion with Martinez.
Shakira bought the North Bay Road waterfront property in 2001 for $3.4 million. The 8,078 square foot contemporary home features 6 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, a gym with hardwood floors, a recording studio, and a private dock. Over the years, she has completely renovated the two-story stunner, working with Miami architects Ben Lopez & Associates and interior designer Renata Lessa Bastos on the redesign.
However, just after the birth of her and Pique’s son Milan in 2013, Shakira tried to offload the property, first renting it out for $45,000 a month and then selling it for just under $13. millions of dollars. In 2015, she raised the price to $13.9 million. In February 2021, she listed the house again for $15.9 million before pulling it six months later. The house has remained off the market ever since.
As well as settling custody issues, Shakira and Pique could be vying for a huge portfolio of high-end properties in Spain, Cyprus, the Bahamas and Miami. She is said to be worth $300 million. Reuters
At the height of the pandemic, as prices soared in Miami as stars like Cindy Crawford, Tom Brady and David and Victoria Beckham all flocked to the Magic City, Shakira was offered “five to six million more than the asking price”, but did not. I don’t want to sell, according to Martinez.
“Right after that, everything happened,” Martinez continued, referring to Shakira’s issues with Pique and the tax evasion controversy. “It was God’s plan. I told her it was at her house.
“He’s a very private person. She must be sad, but you will never see her sad in public. She is very calm. She’s a fighter. She continues and moves on to the next chapter.
“I feel bad for what happened to him with his partner, but that’s life,” added Martinez. “In Miami, she can continue her life.

The winning companies renounce the construction of the Faculty of Medicine in Bilbao | Basque Country
The companies awarded the works have given up the construction of the Faculty of Medicine building in Bilbao, as announced by the UPV/EHU.
In October last year, the university approved the contracting file for the construction of the aforementioned building. This fell to three companies, Construcciones Adolfo Sobrino SA, Altuna y Uría SA and Cycasa Canteras y Construcciones SA, which formed a temporary union of companies (UTE). Thus, on March 4, 2022, the Medikuntza joint venture was established, to which the contract was awarded.
On July 28, the UPV/EHU required the UTE to formalize the contract, but on the same day, the company argued that it was not in a position to assume compliance with the contract based on the agreed conditions.
The justification was that the current economic situation, with the “extraordinary and disproportionate” increase in construction costs with repercussions of 20% since they submitted the offer, prevented them from facing the contract in the agreed terms, for which they requested not to formalize it.
Faced with this situation, the UPV/EHU has regretted the decision adopted by the UTE and will tender the work again “as soon as possible”. | https://d1softballnews.com/the-winning-companies-renounce-the-construction-of-the-faculty-of-medicine-in-bilbao-basque-country/ | 2022-08-13T14:36:06Z | https://d1softballnews.com/the-winning-companies-renounce-the-construction-of-the-faculty-of-medicine-in-bilbao-basque-country/ | false | 1 |

The BJP practises what it preaches, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said on Saturday as he unveiled a statue of a Rajput general of the Mughal era here.
"It is said that there is a difference between what politicians say and do," Rajnath said while unveiling the statue Veer Durgadas Rathore at Salvan Kalan village of Jodhpur on the Rajput general’s 385th birth anniversary.
"But the BJP does what it says. We get this inspiration from sons of the soil like Veer Durgadas Rathore," Rajnath said in his address.

Praising the installation of the statue, Rajnath said Rathore stood for religious harmony.
"We need to learn from him at a time when some powers are conspiring to widen the rift between Hindus and Muslims," he said.
Earlier in the day, Rajnath was received by Union Jal Shakti Mantri Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, Rajya Sabha MP Rajendra Gehlot and other BJP leaders at the airport here.

Akwa Ibom monarch to die by hanging for murder of boy accused of wizardry
The 82-year-old monarch committed the offence back in 2017.
What happened:According to The Punch, the monarch, who has 12 wives and 60 children, stood for trial before Justice Edem Akpan, on four counts counts of conspiracy, directing unlawful trial by ordeal, stealing of the motorcycle and murder of the owner, one Udoma Udo Ubom.
Court's verdict: In a judgement delivered on Friday, August 12, 2022, Justice Akpan said the court found the accused guilty of murder of the deceased by using some chemical substance on him, causing his death on 26th April, 2017.
The judgement held that the late Ubom was accused of being a wizard by his brothers who reported him to the Village Head.
The Village Head then brought Ubom before the Council where an oath was administered on him to swear and prove his innocence.
The court held, “Having sensed the consequences of his criminal activity, the monarch escaped from the Village since 2017 and returned in 2019, when he was arrested by the Police.”
Justice Akpan stated, “The accused had voluntarily admitted that he sat at Efen Clan Council with five other village heads and members of the Clan Council to try the deceased on the allegation of witchcraft, and the law has relieved the prosecution of the burden to prove the offense of conspiracy.”
The court further held, “The admission of the process of trial and the decision of Efen Clan Council to administer oath on the deceased, has logically brought to the conclusion that a plastic bath on the head of the late Udoma Akpan Udo Ubom and injecting some chemical substance through a syringe into his buttocks by the village head, caused the death of the deceased.”
The Justice sentenced the Village Head to death by hanging for murder, three years imprisonment for conspiracy with now at large and seven years imprisonment for directing unlawful trial by ordeal.

Manufactured by new kit supplier Errea, the white shirt features a red central stripe with a black pinstripe and evokes memories of the shirt worn by Alex Sabella and Co. in the late 1970s, and the iconic ‘sash’ jersey donned by Tony Currie and Alan Woodward.
United, who face Chris Wilder’s Boro on Sunday, teamed up with the Italian brand over the summer and unveiled their new home and goalkeeper shirts earlier this month.

Paul Heckingbottom’s men have worn that red and white effort so far this season, but Sunday’s trip to Middlesbrough will necessitate the use of their new away kit.
United are also releasing a third kit later in the season, to be worn when both their home and away shirts clash with their opponents’ kit.
The shirt is available to pre-order now in adult and junior sizes from United’s online store, with delivery expected by mid/late September.
A club statement on the release of the shirt read: “The shirt will celebrate the past and takes inspiration from the Blades era of the 70’s and the iconic white away kits that were worn by some of our most memorable players such as Alex Sabella and Alan Woodward.
"The bespoke away kit will again benefit from the highly technical and performing fabric; Ti-energy nanotechnology.”
The shirt will also feature the Ultimate Champions branding also seen on the home kit, on the reverse.

Hundreds throng Mutoto cultural ground for Imbalu launch
What you need to know:
- Imbalu is an age-old tradition among the Bamasaba, which defines and unites the people in Bugisu sub-region that comprises Mbale, Manafwa, Bulambuli, Sironko and Bududa districts. They are believed to be descendants of Masaba.
Hundreds of people Saturday thronged Mutoto Cultural Ground in Industrial City Division of Mbale City for the official launch of the Imbalu (circumcision) ceremony in Bugisu sub-region.
Imbalu is an age-old tradition among the Bamasaba, which defines and unites the people in Bugisu sub-region that comprises Mbale, Manafwa, Bulambuli, Sironko and Bududa districts. They are believed to be descendants of Masaba.
Mr Godwin Mubuya, the chairperson of Bamasaba Imbalu inauguration committee 2022 said the turn up is overwhelming.
“People are many and we are expecting about a million of them. They are still coming in big numbers because our culture is unique and enticing to watch,” he said Saturday morning.
The cultural circumcision rites are held every even year among the Bamasaba, who hail from Bugisu sub-region and some parts of Kenya.
Today’s ceremony is the first of its kind since Uganda went into Covid-induced lockdown in 2020.
Male circumcision - a rite to passage - is held too much fanfare by the Bamasaba during even years.
Ms Sarah Maswere Wasake, the General Secretary of Bamasaba Imbalu Organizing committee 2022, said five boys from Mutoto clan were selected to be circumcised today.
“Our boys are ready to be circumcised today and each will get a cow and a kit after circumcision,” she said, adding that about 6000 boys are expected to be initiated into manhood this year.
The Elgon Regional Police Spokesperson, Mr Rogers Taitika, said they have deployed both plain and uniform officers to monitor the situation.
"We are on ground and the function is so far going on well. They are many but we have enough officers," he said. | https://www.monitor.co.ug/uganda/news/national/hundreds-throng-mutoto-cultural-ground-for-imbalu-launch-3913388 | 2022-08-13T14:56:12Z | https://www.monitor.co.ug/uganda/news/national/hundreds-throng-mutoto-cultural-ground-for-imbalu-launch-3913388 | false | 1 |
PENDLETON — Rose Murphey of Pendleton is in her seventh decade, and said her drive for life has led her to have an interesting one so far.
Murphey said she was born on a poor farm and lived as a child in a Hermiston migrant labor camp, working in the fields. At 12, she picked strawberries in Parkdale, hoed mint and cut seed potatoes.
“I could see the mighty Columbia River,” she said. “(Then I worked) nights in a hot potato chip factory and (canned) asparagus at Rogers in Walla Walla. I was always hungry for a better life than the one I grew up in, always dreaming of the white picket fence and a nice little white house. No living in a trailer with a few kids hanging (on) my knees, was never going to be my life plan.”
Murphey, 71, moved to Pendleton as an emancipated minor at 15. She got a job as a dishwasher for B&K Donut shop.
“Bob called me ‘Mighty Mouse’ because I only weighed about 90 pounds, but I was a hard worker,” she said. “Later I worked at the Rivoli Theater and the Ranch Cafe. At age 21, not wanting to be trapped into waitress work, I joined the Women Marines. I wanted to go to college, but on my own with no family support, it would never happen.”
In boot camp at Parris Island, South Carolina, Murphey said she had an allergic reaction to some vaccine shots. She was medically discharged from the Marine Corps after 18 months.
“I presented with big welts all over my body,” she said. “I had orders to go to Okinawa to serve my first KP duty. But after spending weeks in the Balboa Naval Hospital, because the fever blisters and welts kept recurring, I was discharged instead.”
Murphey said she still suffered health issues after discharge at 23.
“I continued to have outbreaks and blisters on my skin coming from inside me,” she said. “Usually stress or getting a cold or flu, herpes around my mouth, which later led to fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, Epstein-Barr system, sleeplessness and so much more.”
Despite these medical conditions, Murphey activated her life plan.
“I was smart, motivated and a real hard worker,” she said. “To prepare me to return to civilian life, my IQ, which was 125 that day, I was told I had more in common with a judge or politician. I said, like that is ever going to happen. See, I can’t spell and have dyslexia and my last math class was in the seventh grade.”
The GI Bill and federal vocational rehabilitation funds enabled Murphey to graduate from Blue Mountain Community College in 1975 and Eastern Oregon State College in 1977.
Murphey said she became a licensed clinical social worker, was a vocational and educational counselor in Pendleton and at 30 had her only daughter.
“Because in life I had more than my share of ‘15 minutes of fame’, then I was gifted with the most amazing, musically gifted daughter, Jaclyn Penner Sites,” she said. “She goes by Jacie. My brother, cowboy Dave Murphey, and his then wife Bobbie Beers, along with a couple in California, started the WSRRA.”
Jacie is a championship fiddler, living in Idaho. The Western States Ranch Rodeo Association allows everyday, working cowboys and cowgirls to compete in sanctioned ranch rodeo events.
Murphey said she looks back on her life with satisfaction.
“I did not waste or throw away my life,” she said. “I do not drink, do drugs or gamble. I was born a child of God, and try to live my life the way Jesus and my mom … and her mom taught me. Kindness, compassion, empathy, caring about my fellow man and women, helping my neighbors, giving back and now paying it forward. Every human and animal on Earth is important to me, no matter how insignificant others find them. My personal life is a mystery to most, because that is the way I want it to be. Gossip and bad talk hurt people. If I have nothing good to say about a person, I just do not say anything at all.”
Murphey’s husband, Art Merriman Jr., died in 2018.
“I have had just the most wonderful and amazing life,” she concluded. “I am not running for any elected office, maybe town crier or most loved and respected woman in town. I’m amazed at all the people I’ve been able to help and all the rock solid work I’ve done. I’ve gone from the poor farm to a federally certified attorney.”

A Lake Havasu City man was arrested for an alleged DUI and felony drug charges and police received a call about a man asleep behind the wheel of a car.
According to the police report on Aug. 5 at 4:02 p.m., police went to McCulloch Boulevard for a welfare check on a man asleep behind the wheel. When the officer arrived he saw a white Nissan Titan still running in a parking spot the report says. According to the report, while officers were catching each other up on the situation, the driver, Zachary Leifer, started pulling out of the parking spot despite the police still having his ID.
Police say they were able to get Leifer’s attention and had him exit the vehicle. The report says Leifer, who was allegedly emotional while speaking with police, told officers he just got off probation and “that stuff” and was sleeping off the one drink he had. Police then asked Leifer to complete some field sobriety tests which he agreed to do. After completing the tests the report says police placed Leifer under arrest for allegedly showing signs of impairment.
According to the report, a search of Leifer’s truck turned up drug paraphernalia and a white pill. Leifer was transported to LHCPD jail where he was booked on felony charges for narcotic drugs and drug paraphernalia. | https://www.havasunews.com/news/havasu-man-arrested-on-alleged-dui-felony-drug-chargee/article_30a272e8-1ae1-11ed-8b75-f79f1d3b29be.html | 2022-08-13T15:00:58Z | https://www.havasunews.com/news/havasu-man-arrested-on-alleged-dui-felony-drug-chargee/article_30a272e8-1ae1-11ed-8b75-f79f1d3b29be.html | true | 2 |

1 killed after strong winds cause stage collapse at music festival in Spain
CULLERA, Spain (CNN) - One person died Saturday and dozens more were injured, three of them seriously, after a stage collapsed at a music festival near Valencia, Spain, according to local officials.
Disaster struck at the Medusa Festival in the town of Cullera near Valencia at 4:18 a.m. local time “due to a strong gust of wind,” they said.
The man killed in the stage collapse incident was 22 years old, the Spanish Civil Guard told CNN.
Early Saturday morning festival management announced that the festival had been suspended.
“Due to inclement weather occurring in the early hours of Aug. 13, 2022, and with the aim of guaranteeing the security of the concert-goers, workers and artists gathered at the Medusa Festival, the festival organization suspends its activity for the time being,” festival management said on Instagram.
“The festival site is cleared as a preventative measure with the aim of facilitating the work of the emergency and security services at the Medusa Festiva,” it added.
Videos posted on social media early Saturday showed strong winds and structures falling from the stage as large crowds of festival attendees were evacuated.
The Civil Guard said there were about 50,000 people at the festival site when the incident happened. The press office added that evacuation of the festival took about 40 minutes and the exit doors to the site were functioning properly.
The Spanish Civil Guard, Spain’s paramilitary police unit that is in charge of the investigation, also said there was more damage than just the partial collapse of the stage.
“Due to a strong gust of wind, the main entrance and the main stage of the Medusa Festival in Cullera fell to the ground,” the Civil Guard press office in Valencia told CNN.
The Valencia section of Spain’s national weather service (AEMET) said on Twitter that warm breezes were producing very strong gusts of wind and abrupt increases in temperature.
Around 3 a.m. local time, the temperature was a blistering 40.5 Celsius (104.9 degrees Fahrenheit) at the Alicante-Elche airport, just south of the concert site, on the Mediterranean coast -- with winds measuring 82 kilometers (around 50 miles) per hour.
Temperatures have been soaring across Europe with droughts declared in several parts of England and wildfires in France.

Canada Confirms Over 25,000 New COVID-19 Cases In One Week
Faizan Hashmi Published August 13, 2022 | 05:40 PM
OTTAWA, Aug. 13 (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 13th Aug, 2022 ) :The Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) on Friday confirmed 25,204 new COVID-19 cases for the week of July 31 to Aug. 6.
According to the weekly update issued by the PHAC, the number of total COVID-19 cases and deaths in Canada reached 4,109,931 and 43,178 respectively. The daily positive rate during the week averaged at 12.4 percent, and daily tests per 100,000 people were 69.
The agency said that among the detailed case report data on 4,007,160 cases, 186,563 cases, or 4.7 percent, were hospitalized, of whom 29,074, or 15.6 percent, were admitted to the intensive care units.
People who were diagnosed with COVID-19 after completing their Primary vaccine series were significantly less likely to be hospitalized or to die, particularly if they received an additional dose(s), the agency said.
According to the agency, between June 6 and July 3 this year, unvaccinated cases were three times more likely to be hospitalized and four times more likely to die from their illness, compared to cases with a completed primary vaccine series.
During the same four-week period, unvaccinated cases were five times more likely to be hospitalized and five times more likely to die from their illness, compared to cases with a completed primary vaccine series and one or more additional doses.
COVID-19 modelling studies published recently in the Canada Communicable Disease Report showed that without Canadians' collective efforts in achieving high vaccine coverage and adhering to public health measures, Canada could have experienced an estimated up to 34 million cases, 2 million hospitalisations and 800,000 deaths as of April 2022, the PHAC said.
