Red Land used a huge fifth-inning run to ice an emphatic 16-0 non-league victory against Dover Friday. The Patriots took a 4-0 lead into the fifth and put up 12 runs to put the victory on ice.
Nine different Patriots drove in runs in a well-balanced offensive performance. Evan Keefer and Chandler Schmoyer led the way with two RBIs, while Cooper Artley, Kaden Peifer, Landon Henline, David Thomas, Connor Livingston, Brandon Shirk, and Anderson French each drove in one run.
Schmoyer allowed just one hit in four shutout innings and picked up the ‘W’ on the mound. Henline earned the save in one inning of relief.

Nvidia's monstrous GeForce RTX 3090 Ti has finally been released, and beyond all the hot takes over its cost and practicality for gamers, one of the main lessons to know is that you're going to want a bigger power supply.
You can read news of the mightiest GeForce GPU here, but one thing that's clear is that you don't want to scrimp on power. Nvidia recommends a minimum PSU size of 850 watts, which is a 100 watt increase over the original GeForce RTX 3090 requirement.
That rough estimate, however, is really just an estimate. The card itself has a maximum rated power consumption of 450 watts, which is almost a 30 percent increase over the 350 watt TGP of the RTX 3090. it also assumes the Founders Edition card is paired with a 10-core Core i9-10900K. Though that's no efficient CPU, there are CPUs that use more power. Intel's Core i9-11900K, for example, has been tested under heavy AVX512 workloads by Anandtech's Dr. Ian Cutress to reach 290 watts at the socket.
That's roughly 750 watts for the CPU and GPU, leaving 100 watts to run fans, cooler, SSDs, hard drives, motherboard and the all important RGB lighting in a system. When you factor in that power supply efficiencies tend to drop as the ambient or room temperatures increase, you'd be running that 850 watt power supply right to its margins on some days when pushing both CPU and GPU hard.
This scenario also assumes you're running the new GeForce RTX 3090 Ti at stock speeds, with a stock CPU. Overclocking can push power consumption up even further. In its review, Gamers Nexus found an overclocked EVGA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti reaching 500 to 530 watts. Overclock an Intel 11th-gen CPU or 12th-gen CPU with that GPU and you should probably skip right past Nvidia's recommended minimum PSU of 850 watts to be safe.
What happens if throw caution to the wind and your new GPU overloads the power supply? In theory, not much more than triggering the power supply's protection circuits, causing it to shut down. Most of the time, that means you just lose what you were working on and potentially corrupted the OS. That assumes you're using a power supply that's been properly designed and built which can't always be guaranteed.
Half-glass empty or half full?
Before you start reaching for a beefy 1,600 watt power supply, you should realize that how large of a PSU you pair the 3090 Ti with should depend very much on what you're doing. Sure, a heavy stress test of the GPU being run at the same time as a heavy stress test of a high-consumption CPU is likely to push that 850 watt PSU to the edge, but in reality, playing games, or doing content creation on a system is unlikely to stress both the CPU and the GPU simultaneously enough to put the average person in the red zone.
And yes, an 11th-gen Core i9 overclocked guzzles power, but AMD's Ryzen 9 5900X is far more efficient under load. Overprovisioning a power supply can't hurt (except for your wallet), especially if you have plan to load up a PC over time, but most people are likely fine with a quality, name-brand power supply at Nvidia's 850 watt rating.
For everyone else though—especially those who push it to the limit—you'll likely want to take up a notch.

Lupita Godinez Fighter Statistics
Lupita Godinez Fighter Statistics
Pro MMA Record: 11-5-1
At the age of 14, Godínez's father Carlos was approached by the cartel who demanded protection money. After he found a lot full of bullet-riddled cars and shattered windows, and answered phone calls with voices telling him his daughters’ names and schools, Carlos decided to take his family and leave. Telling his family that they were leaving for Disneyland, instead they landed in Vancouver, where they had to start from scratch. They lived out of a hotel for six months, and did odd jobs such as washing cars to pay the bills. After life stabilized, Godínez was encouraged by her boyfriend to get back into judo that she had done since childhood, and then into jiu-jitsu.

The West Virginia baseball team traveled to Fort Worth, Texas to face off against the No. 12 TCU Horned Frogs in the first game of a three-game series, coming away with an emphatic 3-2 victory in the final inning.
It was a pitcher’s duel on Friday at Charlie and Marie Lupton Baseball Stadium, with WVU (15-9, 1-0 Big 12) pitchers combining for 14 strikeouts and 1.50 ERA compared to 12 strikeouts from the TCU (18-8, 5-2 Big 12) bullpen as well.
Both squads hit poorly on the night78ioo7, with the Horned Frogs going 4-of-29 (.137) from the plate compared to 5-of-30 (.166) from the Mountaineers.
Jacob Watters was on the bump for the Mountaineers, coming in as the team’s most efficient pitcher with 20 innings pitched recording a 2.25 ERA and 23 strikeouts on the year.
However, TCU opened up the contest quickly on Watters in its first set of at-bats, recording three straight hits and an RBI single from Gray Rodgers to score David Bishop for the 1-0 advantage.
In the first five innings, Watters amassed five strikeouts to stifle the Horned Frogs’ offense, but West Virginia still came up empty on the scoreboard with an impressive seven strikeouts from TCU’s starting arm Riley Cornelio.
With two stolen bases during his time on the diamond, WVU’s Austin Davis came around and tied the game at 1-1. The Mountaineers finally began getting on base, with a hit and two walks in the sixth inning.
TCU got back in the scoring column in the bottom of the seventh, scoring off of two straight wild pitches from WVU relief pitcher Trey Braithwaite to bring home TCU’s Kurtis Byrne for the 2-1 lead.
West Virginia had a chance in the top of the ninth with a runner on third to tie the game and they did just that. Off a steal on home for the Mountaineers, another run came in behind to give West Virginia the unlikely 3-2 lead in the inning.
After allowing three runners on base in the bottom of the ninth, the West Virginia defense was able to hold on for the 3-2 victory.
Braden Barry was WVU’s most efficient hitter of the day, going 2-of-3, with two stolen bases and one run scored. Ben Abernathy also went 1-of-1 with a run scored.
TCU’s best contributor was Rodgers, going 1-of-3 with an RBI. Tommy Sacco also added on two hits and a double.
For its next matchup, West Virginia will continue onto the second game of the series against TCU on Saturday, with first pitch set for 3 p.m. The game will be streamed on ESPN +.

DETROIT (AP) — Recently acquired Mathieu Joseph scored three times in the third period for his first career hat trick, Mads Sogaard made 27 saves in his NHL debut and the Ottawa Senators defeated the Detroit Red Wings 5-2 on Friday night.
Joseph's three goals were his first for Ottawa since being dealt from Tampa Bay at the trade deadline.
Josh Norris, playing in his home state for the first time in his pro career, scored on a power play for his 27th goal for the Seantors. Austin Watson added a short-handed goal.
The 6-foot-7 Sogaard, a 2019 second-round draft choice, was promoted from Belleville of the American Hockey League earlier this week. He became the second goaltender of Danish descent to appear in an NHL game, joining Frederik Andersen.
Rookie Lucas Raymond scored both goals for the Red Wings, who are winless in their last five games. Alex Nedeljkovic made 27 saves.
Ottawa scored the only goal in the first period. With the Senators’ Alex Formenton in the penalty box, Joseph fed the puck to Watson, who fired it past Nedeljkovic from the slot.
Watson’s short-handed goal was his first since the 2017-18 season, when he had four for Nashville.
Raymond tied it 2:18 into the second period with his 21st goal. Jake Walman's shot bounced off Sogaard’s glove and Raymond backhanded the puck into the net.
After killing off a 5-on-3 situation earlier in the third, the Senators scored at 2:24 on Norris' one-timer from the right circle. Just over a minute later, Joseph scored in front to make it 3-1.
Joseph notched his second goal of the night and 10th of the season on a shot from the right circle with 6:41 remaining. Raymond answered with his 22nd goal 40 seconds later.
Joseph fired in an empty-netter from his own zone with 3:55 left to complete the hat trick.
NOTES: Walman's second-period assist was his first point in six games with the Red Wings since he was acquired from St. Louis. ... Ottawa visits Detroit again on April 12. ... The Senators were playing their second game since longtime owner Eugene Melnyk died of an illness Monday.
UP NEXT
Senators: Host the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday.

Judge rules California diversity law is unconstitutional
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A Los Angeles judge has ruled that California’s landmark law mandating that corporate boards have ethnic or LGBT members violates the state Constitution. Friday’s brief ruling granted summary judgment to Judicial Watch, a conservative legal group that sought a permanent injunction against the measure. The lawsuit argued it was illegal to use taxpayer funds to enforce a law that violates the equal protection clause of the California Constitution by mandating a quota based on race, ethnicity, sexual preference, and transgender status. A related lawsuit challenges another state law requiring a woman director on corporate boards. Messages seeking comment from the state weren’t immediately returned.

After months of failed negotiations, union representatives for Stater Bros. workers have reached a tenative labor agreement with the supermarket chain.
Details of the contract were not revealed, but United Food and Commercial Workers Local 770 announced the update Friday, April 1 in a post on its website.
“Your hard work and dedication to standing together has resulted in a tentative agreement for a new contract with Stater Bros.,” the union wrote. “Now it’s up to you to make the ultimate decision whether to accept the terms of this historic agreement. Please stand by for information on voting and details of the offer.”
Ralphs, which is also in active negotiations with UFCW but has yet to reach a labor agreement with its workers, released a statement late Friday.
“While some retailers may choose other options, we have to do what is best for our associates and customers,” said Robert Branton, the company’s vice president of operations. “We look to UFCW to resume balanced and meaningful negotiations.”
Thousands of Southern California grocery workers employed by Ralphs, Vons, Pavilions and Albertsons voted Saturday, March 26 to authorize their union to call a strike.
The “yes” vote doesn’t automatically mean a strike will take place, but it authorizes UFCW to call a walkout if no progress is made during contract negotiations.
Branton said Ralphs is looking to boost employee paychecks and continue to provide sound healthcare benefits, while also keeping groceries affordable.
Ralphs workers are seeking a $5-an-hour pay increase over a three-year labor contract.
Ralphs’ latest proposal includes an investment of more than $141 million in new wages over the next three years. It would include a yearly 60-cent raise in 2022 through 2024. So a checker with five years experience who currently earns $22.50 an hour would earn $24.30 an hour by 2024.

South Carolina women top Louisville, advance to title game
Aliyah Boston had 23 points and 18 rebounds to back up her AP National Player of the Year award and carry South Carolina to the NCAA championship game with a 72-59 victory over Louisville in the semifinals on Friday night.
Brea Beal matched her season high with 12 points and helped hold Cardinals star Hailey Van Lith to nine points on 4-for-11 shooting as the Gamecocks (34-2) delivered another stifling defensive performance.
The Dawn Staley-led Gamecocks will face the Connecticut-Stanford winner on Sunday night at Target Center. Staley will try to win her second national championship, eight months after the Hall of Famer led the U.S. Olympic team to a gold medal in the Tokyo Games.
“You see happy tears, happy tears, right now,” Boston said in her postgame TV interview. “I’m just thanking God we have one more game.”
Destanni Henderson scored 11 points with 3-for-6 shooting from 3-point range and had four assists for South Carolina, which improved to 13-0 this season against AP-ranked opponents.
“Just going to live in the moment for right now,” Henderson said.
Emily Engstler led Louisville with 18 points and nine rebounds as the Cardinals went 1 for 8 from 3-point range and were never able to find a rhythm in the half court against the No. 1 overall seed in this tournament.
Kianna Smith and Olivia Cochran each scored 14 points for the Cardinals (29-5), who were the only team in this Final Four without a title. This was their fourth trip to the national semifinals in coach Jeff Walz's 15 seasons.
“I've never been prouder of a group,” Walz said. “They've absolutely been a joy to coach.”
The Cardinals, one of the three No. 1 seeds in this Final Four, made it out of the Wichita Region without any trouble. Van Lith, the relentless sophomore guard with the perpetually flopping blond pigtails, hit the 20-point mark in each of their first four tournament games.
Van Lith met her match with Beal, who had a four-inch height advantage and shadowed her all over the court as she often does to the opponent’s most dangerous player. Van Lith, whose first basket came on a knifing drive for a layup with 1:43 left in the second quarter, had two jumpers blocked by Beal and three turnovers in the first half.
The Gamecocks, who were the wire-to-wire No. 1 team in the AP poll this season, squeezed their first four tournament opponents in the Greensboro Region to a bleak average of 41.2 points on their way to a fourth Final Four in the last seven years.
Engstler, the tough-as-nails transfer from Syracuse, helped Louisville keep Boston from getting too comfortable in the paint while Olivia Cochran helped with the muscle. Physical play can come with a price, though, and with 4.2 seconds left in the third quarter Boston drew Engstler’s fourth foul on a putback layup and stretched the lead to 57-48 with the and-one free throw.
Engstler fouled out with 4:56 to go and had her head buried in her clenched hands on the bench as her teammates tried to console her.

Are you tonight’s lucky winner? It’s time to grab those tickets and check your numbers. The Mega Millions lottery jackpot has reset after someone won $126 million in the March 8 drawing.
Here are the winning numbers in Friday’s drawing:
26-42-47-48-63; Mega Ball: 21; Megaplier: 5X
The estimated jackpot for the drawing is $70 million. The cash option is about $44.7 million. If no one wins, the jackpot climbs higher for the next drawing.
According to the game’s official website, the odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 302,575,350.
Players pick six numbers from two separate pools of numbers -- five different numbers from 1 to 70 and one number from 1 to 25 -- or select Easy Pick. A player wins the jackpot by matching all six winning numbers in a drawing.
Jackpot winners may choose whether to receive 30 annual payments, each five percent higher than the last, or a lump-sum payment.
Mega Millions drawings are Tuesdays and Fridays and are offered in 45 states, Washington D.C. and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Tickets cost $2 each.

GameStop wants to make shares more affordable for meme stock lovers
The "apes" bullish on GameStop may soon be able to buy their favorite stock at a much lower price.
The meme darling of the Reddit crowd wants to initiate a stock split, a move that will drastically reduce the cost of one share, the company said late Thursday in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing.
To do so, GameStop will have to ask shareholders at its upcoming annual meeting for approval to increase the number of its class A shares from 300 million to 1 billion.
If investors say yes, a single share will become much cheaper — because the total value of the company stays the same. It's just divided across more shares. Shares of GameStop initially rallied on the news but they finished Friday down 1%, lowering their year-to-date gain to 11%.
Stock splits are a popular move for some companies whose shares rise to high prices, and they make it easier for smaller investors to buy in. Amazon and Google owner Alphabet, whose shares are trading in the quadruple digits, both recently announced stock split plans. And Tesla, which split its stock in August 2020, is considering another split now that its stock is back above $1,000 a share.
GameStop is trading at about $164 a share. Based on that current price, an individual share should cost about one-third less — or around $50 — after a split because GameStop is looking to multiply the number of its shares by 3.33.
The company has been busy making moves that investors are closely watching. GameStop chairman Ryan Cohen, a co-founder of online pets supplies retailer Chewy, recently bought more shares. Gamestop has also been making investments in NFTs and other cryptocurrency and blockchain initiatives, and it recently hired two former Amazon executives to serve as its CEO and chief financial officer.
Several other meme stocks dipped Friday despite the GameStop split news. Shares of movie theater chain AMC were down about 5% in late morning trading. So was the stock of Hycroft Mining, a small gold and silver miner that has surged after AMC bought a stake in it.
Shares of Bed Bath & Beyond, another retailer that Cohen has recently invested in, fell slightly too.

A 70-year-old French climber is aiming to become the oldest person to climb Mount Everest without supplemental oxygen and at the same time find a new, safer route.
Marc Batard wants to explore a new way around the lethal Khumbu Icefall that all climbers must cross to reach the world’s highest peak from the Nepal side.
The treacherous, ever-shifting expanse of glacial ice that requires climbers to navigate crevasses over rickety ladders has claimed more than 40 lives.
In 2014, a huge block of ice broke off a hanging glacier and barrelled down into the icefall, killing 16 Nepali guides in one of the worst tragedies at Everest.
“Too many people have died there,” Batard told AFP in Kathmandu before setting off.
“This project is not only for me. I am very happy to climb Everest again. But I want to use my reputation to do some good things… This new route is not easy but it is safer,” he said.
Batard was 18 when he discovered mountaineering, climbing the Pyrenees that straddle the border of France and Spain, and began working as a mountain guide.
He first entered the record books in 1988 when he became the only person to reach the summit of the world’s highest mountain without bottled oxygen in under 24 hours.
His solo 22.5-hour climb earned him the nickname “Sprinter”.
Batard also made headlines in the 1980s for speed climbing several 8,000-metre mountains.
Recently back from retirement, Batard now hopes to reach the 8,848.86-metre (29,031 feet) summit of Everest for a third time.
He will camp in Gorakshep at 5,150 metres, away from hundreds of Everest climbers in the usual tent city at base camp.
The new route crosses the foothills of adjoining Nuptse to an unnamed peak, and Batard along with his team will have to climb down if they want to join the regular route at the Western Cwm.
“We’ve already set a part of the route… Batard is a strong and experienced climber, so we hope we can be successful,” said teammate Pasang Nuru Sherpa, 47, who has summited Everest 14 times.
Batard and Sherpa, 47, will both be joined by their sons — aged 26 and 42 — on the expedition.
If successful, Batard will break the record set by Italian climber Abele Blanc, who reached the Everest summit in 2010 aged 55 without oxygen support.
The oldest person to climb Everest with oxygen support was Japanese climber Yuichiro Miura. He was 80 when he scaled the peak in 2013.
With the coronavirus pandemic winding down, expedition operators in Nepal are hopeful of a better climbing season this year.
Kathmandu only reopened Everest last year after the virus shut down the mountaineering industry in 2020.
The Tibetan part of Everest continues to be closed to foreigners, possibly adding more climbers to the Nepal side.
Nepal has so far this season issued 135 climbing permits for various Himalayan mountains, including seven for Everest.

First Ad Hoc meeting is scheduled for April 6
PASO ROBLES — The Paso Robles City Council has created a two-member ad hoc committee to review and make recommendations regarding the City’s existing memorandum of understanding with El Camino Homeless Organization (ECHO). ECHO currently operates an emergency homeless shelter at 1134 Black Oak Dr. The City Council appointed Councilmembers John Hamon and Steve Gregory to the committee on March 15.
The formation of the committee is in response to a request from ECHO for the City to provide up to $444,000 to support operating costs of the shelter and related services. The City Council discussed ECHO’s request at its March 15 meeting and requested additional information prior to making a decision. At the conclusion of the discussion, the City Council opted to create an ad hoc committee to review the request in more detail.
The committee is expected to hold up to four meetings in April and May with the objective of providing a recommendation to the full City Council at the May 17 City Council meeting. The committee meeting schedule is as follows. Dates, times, locations and specific topics may be subject to change:
Meeting 1
Wednesday, April 6, 1:00-3:00 PM, City Council Chamber, 1000 Spring Street
City staff will present background information on the City’s homeless services efforts and relationship with ECHO.

ECHO’s report will include specific details regarding available services, program requirements, clients served, and budget.
Meeting 2
Wednesday, April 20, 1:00-3:00 PM, City Council Chamber, 1000 Spring Street
ECHO staff will address any follow-up questions which arise from meeting #1. Police Chief Damian Nord and Fire Chief Jonathan Stornetta will report on the community impact of ECHO Paso Robles, their respective number of calls for service, and general concerns moving forward.
Meeting 3
Wednesday, April 27, 1:00-3:00 PM, location TBD
Consultant will provide a summary of results from the Paso Robles Chamber of Commerce Futures Study. City Administrative Services Director Ryan Cornell will be available for financial questions from the committee. Ad Hoc members will determine funding recommendations and any MOU updates including additional stipulations such as matching funds, a written funding development plan, and statistical reporting requirements for ECHO.
Ad Hoc Meeting 4 (tentative)
Thursday, May 5, if needed, this meeting will be held to craft recommendations to bring back to the full City Council.
Regular City Council Meeting
Tuesday, May 17, 6:30 PM, City Council Chamber, 1000 Spring Street

All meetings will be open to the public and agendas will be posted on the City website and City Hall bulletin board 72 hours prior to each meeting. Residents are encouraged to participate and give input at each meeting.
About Ad Hoc Committees: Ad hoc committees consist of 1 or 2 members of the City Council who are appointed by the City Council to perform specific tasks, usually working with staff or representatives from local organizations. An ad hoc committee functions for a limited period of time, reporting back to the full Council periodically during the duration of the committee or at its termination. Meeting times are not fixed and are normally coordinated by staff. Download and view the current Ad Hoc Committees (PDF) list.

A deep red label displays a vine of four pink roses intertwined with the word “Zetta” vertically printed on the front. This lush, retro design on the Zetta wine bottle is a tribute to St. Louis native and comedian Cedric the Entertainer's late mother, the remarkableRosetta Boyce Kyles, an educator and reading specialist for 30 years.He launched the wine January 4, 2022 (Kyles was born Jan. 4, 1944).
"There are fours all over [the bottle] because it's something my mother and I have in common," Cedric said in an interview with The St. Louis American. "She was born Jan. 4, 1944, and I was born April 24, 1964. There are a lot of fours in our life. I was number four on my Kappa [Alpha Psi] line. It's four roses on the label; the rose is for Rosetta. Zetta was chosen as the name since another company had already used Rosetta. I wrote the messaging for the bottle just telling the story of how my mother raised my sister [Sharita Kyles Wilson] and I. We used mint green in the design to exude spring energy to go against the roses, which made everything pop out."
Kyles lost her courageous battle with cancer in 2015.
From Cedric's recollection of Kyles, his mother not only held a solid devotion to education, but she also appreciated fine wine.
On the website Cedric recalled how before his mother sipped her wine she constantly affirmed, "we toast our glass with a touch of class."
"This wine is a tribute to her legacy – sophisticated, relatable, tasteful, inviting, generous – with a burst of joyful attitude at every encounter," Cedric wrote on the website.
He said his business relationship with Smith Devereux Winery grew after meeting its vintner, Ian Devereux, during a visit to Napa.
"He was a sincere, genuine dude," Cedric said. "We met, we laughed, we talked, we became friends. We started to figure out what we wanted the wine to say through a process. He also appreciated my mom's story. Taking those steps to connect with someone who knows and understands the wine industry has helped with my vision for Zetta."
Cedric has been traveling across the country promoting his Zetta Napa Valley Red blend wine and has had significant press coverage.
Wednesday night (March 31) was no different; guests throughout the region packed Prime 55 Downtown from wall to wall. Thanks to promotion duo Erick Hubbard and Michael White of Mun & Mun for partnering with Cedric and Prime, family, friends, and supporters, including Sharita Kyles Wilson (Cedric's sister) and St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones, came out to celebrate.
Cedric fellowshipped with guests, who enjoyed food and complimentary Zetta on every table – the first official sampling of the wine in St. Louis.
"I was trying to think of how to do something philanthropic with the wine," Cedric said. "Since my mother was a reading specialist, I came up with a reason to give to literacy programs by doing the wine and dedicating it in her name. It gave more purpose when the opportunity came to launch a wine."
Cedric describes Zetta's taste as having a good balance and being palatable for the non-wine sophisticates. He hilariously imitated people who sip wine and analyze its flavor, including critiquing the notes.
As with most wines, people like to drink them with their food. He joked that while he isn't trying to be bourgeois, he thinks charcuterie boards with refined meats, excellent cheeses, and crackers pair well with Zetta.
"It helps that red wines are always strong and great with red meat," Cedric said in an interview with The St. Louis American at the mixer. "It's got a mellow aspect that falls off your palate. I've enjoyed it with salmon and seabass [so can't nobody tell me nothing]."
If his beloved mother were alive, Cedric said he believes she would love the wine and the excellent cause it’s contributing to.
"My mother was a big fan of my work as a comedian and who I grew to be as a person," Cedric said. "That's one of the things I love and represent about her when I do everything in my business. This [the wine] is something that I'm sure she would've enjoyed."
Zetta is available for purchase for $64 at https://www.smithdevereux.com/, with 10% of assets donated to RedRoseReads Foundation, a literacy support organization.

REDLANDS (CBSLA) — A San Bernardino man arrested on suspicion of molesting a family member since she was as young as 7 years old may have more victims, police said Tuesday.
(credit: Redlands Police Department)
David Israel Ceballos, 40, was arrested on March 3. He is being held on $750,000 bail and is scheduled to make his next court appearance on March 28, according to Redlands police.
A woman reported to police that Ceballos, a relative of hers, had sexually assaulted her over the span of six years, starting when she was 7 or 8 years old. The abuse allegedly happened in San Bernardino and Redlands, until she was 13 years old.
During the investigation, police told the detectives that Ceballos had access to more unidentified girls who may also be victims of sexual assault, so pictures of him with and without facial hair were released to the public.
Anyone with more information about Ceballos can contact Redlands police at (909) 798-7681 or Detective Steve Truong at struong@redlandspolice.org.

After House vote, insulin price cap bill faces uncertain future in Senate
President Biden’s call for Congress to cap the price to $35 per month has been answered by House Democrats: but the Senate still needs the support.
WASHINGTON (Gray DC) - Weeks after President Joe Biden called on Congress to cap the price of insulin, the House passed legislation to do exactly that, capping the out-of-pocket cost for the essential drug at $35 per month for people with private insurance and Medicare.
At a press conference before Thursday’s vote, Rep. Dan Kildee (D-Mich.) said too many people living with diabetes are finding life-saving insulin to be out of reach because they can’t afford it.
Kildee said, “The idea that some families don’t have even access to a 100-year-old drug, it’s just unconscionable.”
What happens in the Senate is still unknown.
Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) already introduced the Affordable Insulin Now Act in the Senate. The bill has support from 34 senators, but no Republicans yet.
Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) said she is working on a separate, bipartisan bill, with Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), to lower the overall cost of insulin which would also help those who don’t have insurance.
Collins said, “We want to produce as comprehensive bill as possible that will help as many people who are insulin dependent as possible.”
Sen. Collins’ office said there’s an agreement on the framework of the bill, but they are still ironing out the legislative text. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said that he supports both efforts to lower the cost of insulin, and wants a vote after Easter.

PROGRESO — The Progreso Red Ants established themselves as a perennial Valley power in boys soccer over the past decade. Led by then-head coach Margarito Jimenez, the Red Ants dominated the Class 4A competition, advancing to seven straight postseason appearances (2013-2019), including three straight state tournament appearances (2016-2018).
The last two years put a pause to the Red Ants’ dominant run, with the 2020 season ending prematurely amid the COVID-19 pandemic and Progreso opting out of the 2021 campaign.
Uncertainty clouded the air going into this season, with the Red Ants nearly two years removed from their last contest and Jimenez announcing his resignation prior to the start of the year.
“It was really difficult for all of us,” Progreso forward Yahir Perez said. “With the pandemic, a lot of us had a lot of time without playing. We lost a lot of conditioning. Little by little, however, we’ve been getting back to the rhythm we were before the pandemic.”
Despite the near-two-year hiatus and a newly appointed head coach, the Red Ants’ goal this season remained the same: eyeing a return to the state tournament.
Through two rounds of postseason play, the Red Ants have proven they’re still one of the RGV’s elite soccer programs, emerging as one of seven Valley teams advancing to the regional quarterfinals this weekend.
Progreso takes on the Brownsville IDEA Frontier Chargers in the Region IV-4A quarterfinals at 4 p.m. Saturday at H-E-B Park in Edinburg.
“Our vision has always been state,” Progreso forward Jose Torres said. “First, we wanted to win district. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen for us. Still, thanks to God, we’re in the third round of the playoffs. Now, our only vision is getting to state.”
Progreso is led by first-year head coach Gerardo Alanis, who served as an assistant to Jimenez during the Red Ants’ last state tournament appearance in 2018.
Replacing the 28-year veteran hasn’t been easy.
“Coach Jimenez had a certain playing scheme,” Alanis said. “For someone else to come in and replace it, it’s very difficult because the scheme has been planted. To get the kids to play the way we want to, it’s hard. But we’ve been able to accomplish it. We’re becoming more offensive, different than the scheme Coach Jimenez had.”
Alanis’ offensive philosophy is simple, with the Red Ants looking to score early and often. Progreso has evolved into one of Class 4A’s most potent offenses under Alanis, scoring 70 goals during district play en route to a 9-3-0 finish.
“We try to get our shots early, get inside and resolve the game during the first half,” Alanis said. “We don’t want to wait until second or the final 15 minutes. It’s happened, where we had to go to overtime to win. We don’t want that. We want to resolve the game during the first 15 to 20 minutes and put the game in the bag and emerge victorious.”
The Red Ants are led by a flurry of offensive weapons, with seven players scoring five or more goals during district play, including Perez and Torres. Cesar Cuenca serves as the team’s leading scorer, netting 11 goals in 12 district appearances.
“Our forwards are really good, to be honest,” Perez said. “Then our midfielders do a great job of recovering the ball and distributing it. But they can also score.”
During their first two postseason games, the Red Ants have struggled to score, mustering only three goals through the first two rounds after averaging 5.8 goals per contest during district play.
Still, the Red Ants remain confident in their ability, looking to get back to their offensive prowess and punch their ticket to the Region IV-4A tournament next week in McAllen.
“We just have to come out and play our game,” Torres said. “The result we’re looking for is always 3-0 to put the game in the bag. If we can’t do that, we’re just going to look for at least one goal before the half and take advantage of that.”

Associated Press
JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — Sarah Palin on Friday shook up an already unpredictable race for Alaska’s lone U.S. House seat, filing paperwork to join a field of at least 40 candidates seeking to fill the seat that had been held for 49 years by the late-U.S. Rep. Don Young, who died last month.
Palin filed paperwork Friday with a Division of Elections office in Wasilla, said Tiffany Montemayor, a division spokesperson. The paperwork was being processed by the division, she said.
The field includes current and former state legislators and a North Pole city council member named Santa Claus. The deadline to file was 5 p.m. Friday. A final list of official candidates was not yet available.
“Public service is a calling, and I would be honored to represent the men and women of Alaska in Congress, just as Rep. Young did for 49 years,” Palin said in a statement on social media. “I realize that I have very big shoes to fill, and I plan to honor Rep. Young’s legacy by offering myself up in the name of service to the state he loved and fought for, because I share that passion for Alaska and the United States of America.”
Palin is a former Alaska governor and was the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee. She has kept a low profile in Alaska politics since leaving office in 2009, before her term as governor ended.
Young, a Republican, had held Alaska’s House seat since 1973 and was seeking reelection at the time of his death last month at age 88.
A special primary is set for June 11. The top four vote-getters will advance to an Aug. 16 special election in which ranked choice voting will be used, a process in line with a new elections system approved by voters in 2020.
The winner will serve the remainder of Young’s term, which expires in January. The division is targeting Sept. 2 to certify the special election.
Others who filed Friday include Republican state Sen. Josh Revak; Democratic state Rep. Adam Wool; independent Al Gross, an orthopedic surgeon who unsuccessfully ran for U.S. Senate in 2020; and Andrew Halcro, a former Republican state lawmaker who is running as an independent. They join a field that includes Republican Nick Begich, who had positioned himself as a challenger to Young; Democrat Christopher Constant, an Anchorage Assembly member; and John Coghill, a Republican former state lawmaker.
Revak, who previously worked for Young’s office and was a statewide co-chair for Young’s reelection bid, said he felt a “strong calling and a duty” to step forward.
He said he was “heartbroken” by the filing timeline, coinciding with a period he said should be focused on remembering Young.
Young lied in state at the U.S. Capitol on Tuesday. A public memorial was held in the Washington, D.C.-area on Wednesday and a public memorial is planned in Anchorage on Saturday.
Revak said he also plans to run in the regular primary for U.S. House. Palin filed paperwork to run in the special and regular primaries as well, Montemayor said.
The August special election will coincide with the regular primary. The regular primary and November general election will determine who represents Alaska in the House for a two-year term starting in January.
Gross also plans to run in both the special and regular elections. His campaign announced a leadership team that includes several Republicans and independents, as well as Democrats, including former Gov. Tony Knowles.
“We are building a campaign that embodies all of Alaska,” Gross said in a statement.
Wool said he has privately discussed a run for years. He said he looked at the candidates running in the special primary and “wasn’t that impressed. Many of them have never won an election, don’t have any statewide recognition and politically aren’t aligned certainly not with me or what I would think the majority of Alaskans are looking for.”
Wool, from Fairbanks, said he considers himself moderate. He said he has yet to decide whether to run in the regular primary.
Halcro, who has a podcast on which he talks politics, said during the campaign he plans to play up his intent to only run to fill the remainder of the term. He said if the person who wins the special election also is in the November general election, he expects they would spend a fair amount of time campaigning. He said if elected, he would be focused on congressional work.
Meanwhile, a man who years ago legally changed his name to Santa Claus and serves on the North Pole city council also filed with the state Division of Elections for the special primary. Claus, who said he has a “strong affinity” for Bernie Sanders, is running as an independent.
He said he is not soliciting or raising money. He said the new elections process “gives people like me an opportunity, without having to deal with parties, to throw our hat in the ring.”
“I do have name recognition,” he said with a laugh.

Actor Will Smith resigns from the Academy for slapping comedian Chris Rock
The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences accepted Smith’s resignation and said it will move forward with its disciplinary proceedings against the actor.
Actor Will Smith on Friday resigned from the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences after he slapped comedian Chris Rock during the Oscars ceremony, reported CNN.
Smith will no longer be able to vote on Oscar-nominated movies and performances. His work, however, will still be eligible for future Oscars consideration and nominations.
In a statement released on Friday, the actor said that his actions were “shocking, painful and inexcusable”.
“I betrayed the trust of the Academy,” he said. “I deprived other nominees and winners of their opportunity to celebrate and be celebrated for their extraordinary work. So, I am resigning from the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences, and will accept any further consequences the Board deems appropriate.”
At Sunday’s Academy Award ceremony, Smith had smacked Rock for joking that his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, was apt for the next GI Jane movie – a seeming reference to her tonsured head. She had shaved her head in 2021 following a diagnosis of alopecia, a condition that leads to hair loss.
A few minutes later as he accepted his Oscar award, Smith had apologised to the Academy, but he did not mention Rock. On Monday, he had apologised to Rock, saying: “I was out of line and I was wrong.”
The Academy had announced on Wednesday that it had initiated disciplinary proceedings against Smith for violating the group’s standards of conduct. It allowed Smith to defend himself in a written response before the board met again on April 18.
Meanwhile, the Academy’s president David Rubin on Friday said that the organisation has accepted Smith’s resignation.
“We will continue to move forward with our disciplinary proceedings against Mr Smith for violations of the Academy’s Standards of Conduct, in advance of our next scheduled board meeting on April 18,” Rubin added.
In its Wednesday statement, the Academy had said that Smith’s violations include inappropriate physical contact, abusive or threatening behaviour and compromising the integrity of the organisation.

With the first quarter of 2022 already in the books, the calendar is filling up with many ribbon-cuttings for county projects, including two funded by the 2014 and 2020 1% local option sales tax extensions approved by voters. Look for more information about these events coming soon.
A ribbon-cutting is upcoming for Olean Boulevard in Parkside. The Olean widening is one of the final two projects to be completed with 2014 sales tax funding. The project improves public safety and traffic flow in one of the busiest commercial areas in the county.
The finishing touches are being put on the Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting training facility at the Public Safety Complex west of the Punta Gorda Airport. Funded with 2020 sales taxes and a state grant, the facility will allow Fire & EMS to meet Federal Aviation Administration certification for specialized training for commercial aircraft accident response. The training is in high demand across the country, with few facilities capable of providing it. We have already been approached by numerous fire departments around the country about scheduling training at our new facility.
Three new fire stations will be opening in the coming months. First up will be a replacement Fire Station 10 on Don Pedro Island, where a ribbon-cutting ceremony is scheduled for April 21. Next up will be a replacement Fire Station 2 in Murdock and new Fire Station 5 on Burnt Store Road. Location and design of fire stations are critical to both response times and continuity of operations in the event of severe weather.
You can follow the progress of these and dozens of other projects on the county website. Visit www.CharlotteCountyFL.gov/projects.
Last Saturday morning I participated in the Pedal & Play in Paradise bicycle ride around Punta Gorda and South County. The sidewalks, multi-use paths and bike lanes made for a safe and seamless route. We passed South County Regional Park, Carmalita Park and the Punta Gorda Charlotte Library. So many of the amenities — the tennis and pickleball courts, basketball courts, swimming pool, sports fields, horse arena, picnic pavilions — were being enjoyed by residents and visitors.
Public health and safety are a county government’s primary responsibility, but quality of life is high on the list, too. Among the reasons we’ve been growing so much in recent years is people have discovered that beyond the beautiful weather and natural environment, Charlotte County offers such rich cultural and recreational amenities. It’s a testament to both the leadership of this and past county commissions and the generosity of county residents who have voted to invest more than $450 million in roads, sidewalks, pathways, facilities, parks, recreations centers, libraries, and public safety facilities and more since 1994.
Job Fair
The Charlotte County Human Resources Department in partnership with CareerSource Southwest Florida has scheduled a job fair from 3-7 p.m., Monday, April 11 at the Charlotte Harbor Event & Conference Center, 75 Taylor St. in Punta Gorda.
This is a multi-agency event with employers from Charlotte County Public Works, Utilities, Building Construction Services, Recreation and Pools, Information Technology, Public Safety, Fire & EMS as well as the tax collector, schools and more. Potential on-site interviews and resume assistance will be available.
For information contact Charlotte County Human Resources www.charlotte countyfl.gov/departments/human-resources. For all jobs available at Charlotte County, visit www.charlottecountyfl.gov/jobs.

NEW ORLEANS, April 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Former Attorney General of Louisiana, Charles C. Foti, Jr., Esq., a partner at the law firm of Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC ("KSF"), announces that KSF continues its investigation into Zoom Video Communications, Inc. (NasdaqGS: ZM).
On April 18, 2019, the Company filed its Registration Statement and Prospectus pursuant to its initial public offering ("IPO") in which it stated "Security and disaster recovery. We offer robust security capabilities, including end-to-end encryption, secure login, administrative controls and role-based access controls." In July 2019, the Electronic Privacy Information Center filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") alleging that the Company had intentionally designing its web conferencing service to bypass security settings allowing a user's web camera to be remotely enabled without their knowledge, exposing users to the risk of remote surveillance, unwanted videocalls, and denial-of-service attacks.
Beginning in late March 2020, the Company's improper data collection and sharing practices, as well as the failure of its video conferencing software to truly support end-to-end- encryption, were revealed in a series of media reports and disclosures, including the Company's own admissions.
In November 2020, the Company agreed to settle the FTC action, requiring it to "implement a robust information security program," prohibits "privacy and security misrepresentations," and levying fines of up to $43,280 for each future violation. In August 2021, the Company agreed to pay $85 million to settle a class action lawsuit claiming it violated users' privacy rights by sharing their personal information without their permission and allowing hackers to interrupt virtual meetings.
The Company has been sued in a securities class action lawsuit for failing to disclose material information, violating federal securities laws. Recently, the court presiding over that case denied the Company's motion to dismiss in part, allowing the case to move forward.
KSF's investigation is focusing on whether Zoom's officers and/or directors breached their fiduciary duties to Zoom's shareholders or otherwise violated state or federal laws.
If you have information that would assist KSF in its investigation, or have been a long-term holder of Zoom shares and would like to discuss your legal rights, you may, without obligation or cost to you, call toll-free at 1-877-515-1850 or email KSF Managing Partner Lewis Kahn (lewis.kahn@ksfcounsel.com), or visit https://www.ksfcounsel.com/cases/nasdaqgs-zm/ to learn more.

Following a multi-million-dollar investment, the new facility in Neenah, Wisc., offers R&D services and toll compounding for customers interested in developing flexible polyethylene (PE) packaging based on Void’s patented VO+ technology.
VO+ engineers nano- and micro-scale air pockets into plastics to create high-performance products with a lower environmental impact. It is effective in a range of thermoplastics including polyolefins and polyesters. The technology is most developed in white Machine Direction Orientation (MDO) PE films. By combining the benefits of MDO with VO+ cavitation technology, products can achieve:
• Material reduction: Lower density and downgauging
• Enhanced performance: Improved puncture, toughness, and high opacity without TiO2
• Improved recycling: VO+ white films turn clear during recycling because they are free of pigments like TiO2
With the official opening of the site, Void has launched VOID Labs, an R&D Services business through which plastics, packaging, and consumer goods companies can access the company’s start-of-the-art equipment. That includes pilot-scale blown film extrusion with inline MDO, lab- and commercial-scale twin screw compounding, as well as a range of testing and analytical equipment.
“Void is combining VO+ plastic reduction technology with R&D Services to help manufacturers and brand owners accelerate their commercialization programs for MDO PE films and flexible packaging. VO+ MDO PE films allow companies to reduce their plastic footprint by addressing the tension between material reduction, performance and recyclability,” said Void CEO James Gibson.

No Cause For Complacency As The Russia-Ukraine Conflict Modestly Dents Global Economic Growth, Report Says
NEW YORK, March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- After a healthy start to 2022, the Russia-Ukraine conflict's global macroeconomic effects for now seem moderate, but risks are clearly on the downside, according to "Global Economic Outlook Q2 2022: No Cause For Complacency As The Russia-Ukraine Conflict Modestly Dents Growth," published today. The conflict will influence direct trade effects, energy and commodity prices, confidence, and policy responses, particularly in China.
"We have lowered our GDP growth forecast to 3.6% globally, 3.2% in the U.S., and 3.3% in the eurozone," said S&P Global Chief Economist Paul Gruenwald. "We think China's policy response will keep growth stable at around 5%."
Among the regions we track, the eurozone is forecast to take the biggest hit to growth from the Russia-Ukraine conflict, at 1.1% this year, given its proximity and its higher exposure to global energy costs. The largest driver of lower U.S. growth, in contrast, comes from higher domestic interest rates and not the Russia-Ukraine conflict; U.S. growth falls by 60 basis points. Asia-Pacific is relatively insulated outside of the energy import cost channels, and emerging markets are split along the lines of energy dependency.
Inflation has moved front and center as a policy challenge, especially in the U.S. where the Fed tightening cycle is the main factor behind the growth slowdown for now. Higher U.S. dollar rates will tighten financial conditions, moderate growth, and spill over to other economies, while the European Central Bank tightening will be much more gradual.

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli forces killed three Palestinian militants in a firefight in the occupied West Bank early Saturday, police said, raising fears of further escalation of violence during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
Israeli media said four members of a police counter-terrorism unit of the Israeli police were wounded, one of them seriously. The troops came under fire as they attempted to arrest suspected militants in the northern West Bank.
Tensions have soared in recent days after Palestinian assailants killed 11 Israelis in separate attacks across the country. Saturday marks the start of Ramadan, a month of dawn-to-dusk fasting, prayer and religious devotion for hundreds of millions of Muslims around the world. In the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Ramadan has often been a period of increased friction and confrontation.
The Israeli police said the three militants were members of a cell that was involved in recent attacks against Israeli forces and were planning another attack that was thwarted during early Saturday’s joint operation with the military and intelligence.
Live videos by witnesses on social media showed a crowed of Palestinians inspecting the scene of the clashes near the city of Jenin after the Israeli troops withdrew. The street was covered with blood stains and the men chanted slogans calling for revenge.
Palestine TV reported that Israeli forces seized the bodies of the militants.
In response to the recent Palestinian attacks, more Israeli forces were sent to the West Bank in recent days for increased searches, patrols and arrest raids.
With Saturdays deaths, seven Palestinians were killed over three days, including two in a gun battle Thursday and one after he stabbed and wounded an Israeli on a bus in the West Bank.
On Friday, a Palestinian man was killed by troops in the West Bank city of Hebron, during clashes that erupted after mosque prayers. The Israeli military said its forces shot a Palestinian who threw a firebomb at them.
Several hundred Jewish settlers live under heavy military protection in the heart of Hebron, a city of more than 200,000 Palestinians and home to a major holy site sacred to Jews and Muslims.
Also Friday, the Palestinian Red Crescent emergency service said 36 Palestinians were hurt in weekly confrontations with Israeli forces elsewhere in the West Bank. Protesters often throw rocks and firebombs at Israeli troops who use tear gas, rubber-bullets and live fire. Thirty-three of the injured were struck by rubber bullets and three by live rounds Friday, the Red Crescent said.
At the Al-Aqsa mosque in east Jerusalem, the third holiest site in Islam, authorities said more than 30,000 people attended Friday prayers on the eve of Ramadan. There were no reports of protests or violence.
The hilltop on which the mosque is located is the holiest site for Jews, who refer to it as the Temple Mount, and it has been a frequent flashpoint in the century-old conflict.
Israeli, Palestinian and Jordanian leaders have held a flurry of talks in recent weeks, and Israel has made a series of goodwill gestures, all aimed at calming tensions ahead of Ramadan.
They hope to avoid a repeat of last year, when protests and clashes in Jerusalem during Ramadan ignited an 11-day Gaza war and Jewish-Arab violence in Israel’s mixed cities.

April is Autism Awareness Month. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports Autism affects 1 in 44 children in the U.S.
Hawaii Autism advocates say the pandemic, particularly mask wearing, has brought on certain challenges for students with autism.
“If you are teaching language to a child, especially a young child, they’re going to rely on the facial cues, the way that your mouth moves, in order to imitate those same movements. Body language as well,” says Amy Wiech, CEO and Executive Director, of the Autism Behavior Consulting Group Hawaii.
With masks, Wiech says it’s harder for those with autism to “learn to improve [their] articulation.”
The signs of Autism include repetitive behavior and challenges with social communication and interaction.
To help spread awareness, Ala Moana Beach Park's Magic Island will host a walk and resource fair Saturday, April 2. Registration begins 7am; the walk starts at 8am. The fair will include live entertainment and games.

A 26-year-old Joplin father pleaded guilty this week in a child endangerment case and was assessed a suspended imposition of sentence and probation.
Trevor M. Garrett changed his plea to guilty Monday in Jasper County Circuit Court on a count of first-degree child endangerment in a plea agreement allowing the suspended imposition of sentence.
Circuit Judge David Mouton placed the defendant on supervised probation for five years.
The conviction stems from an incident Feb. 11, 2021, involving a vehicle traveling on Missouri Highway 171 west of Carthage that was driven by the defendant's wife and occupied by the couple and their two children.
A probable-cause affidavit states that the couple were arguing and he kept grabbing and jerking the steering wheel, putting her in fear that he would cause them to crash.

Tech softball team outlasts Kansas in slugfest
Abbie Orrick had four hits and scored four runs and Peyton Blythe drove in three runs as Texas Tech beat Kansas 12-9 Friday night in the opener of a three-game Big 12 softball series at Rocky Johnson Field.
Blythe singled home a run in a four-run second inning and singled home two more in the third. Orrick doubled three times, one driving in a run.
Tech leadoff batter Arriana Villa had two hits and drove in runs with a second-inning single and a fielder's choice in the sixth.
Erna Carlin (5-2) got the win with 2 2/3 innings of middle relief for Tech (18-15, 1-3), which had won nine in a row before getting swept last weekend at No. 7 Oklahoma State in its first Big 12 series.
Kansas (11-19, 0-4) hit four home runs. Lyric Moore, Olivia Bruno and Haleigh Harper all homered in a four-run third as the Jayhawks cut their deficit from 5-0 to 5-4.
KU never led, though the Jayhawks battled back from a 10-4 deficit on Shayna Espy's three-run double in the fifth and Savanna DesRochers two-run homer in the sixth.

Some native vines that provide food as well as shelter and nesting sites for wildlife are Trumpet Creeper (Campsis radicans), Virginia Creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia), and Common Greenbriar (Smilax rotundifolia).
All three of these sun-loving plants are considered by many folks to be uncontrollable “weeds”, but none of them are difficult to limit. The alert gardener who does not want a plethora of vines simply needs to pull out the few seedlings that come up each year. Just as with any other kind of plant, these vines “take over” only after several years of ignoring them in the landscape.
Common Greenbriar is a plant that you want to grow in a corner or area of the yard where no one might brush against it. It has barbs that can scratch you, but therein lies part of its usefulness to wildlife. A fox (or cat or dog) chasing a rabbit will undoubtedly be brought to a halt if its prey runs under a greenbriar thicket. Birds often nest here, and the bluish-black berries that this vine produces are consumed by songbirds and mammals during the winter.
You could start a Common Greenbriar vine from fruits, or you could hope one appears in your yard on its own in the right place! Years ago, I encouraged volunteer greenbriar along my driveway and the thicket is quite attractive with its leathery but glossy green leaves.
I love Virginia Creeper because of its beautiful fall foliage that is my favorite color—red. The palmately compound foliage makes this vine extremely attractive growing up a tree trunk. The flower is inconspicuous but produces a bluish-black berry on a bright red stem that’s visible in early fall. Small mammals and many species of songbirds eat it.
Virginia Creeper often shows up in yards on its own (well, with the help of the animals that eat its berries), but it can also be bought from nursery catalogs. They transplant okay except they are sort of slow to really take off. When Virginia Creeper does start to grow well, it can reach over 35 feet (10 meters).
Trumpet Creeper is the best all-around native vine for the yard. It produces pinnately compound leaves and tubular orangey-red flowers that look great from late-spring until fall arrives. Besides increasing the beauty of your yard, Trumpet Creeper provides nectar for Ruby-throated Hummingbirds and seeds for Tufted Titmice, American Goldfinches, and Dark-eyed Juncos. I’ve even seen titmice storing shelled sunflower seeds from my feeders in its hollow dried stems!
Trumpet Creeper requires lots of room as it can grow more than 35 feet (10 meters) long. You must tie the vine to the structure on which you want it to grow until its rootlets attach to the support. I trained mine to climb up the trellising at the south end of my deck and it spills over the deck railing and onto the floor.
Older stems become woody with age. As a result, the vine eventually supports itself and you can untie it.

The Pacers lost their sixth straight game despite getting 30 points from Tyrese Haliburton before he fouled out early in the fourth quarter. Al Horford scored 17 points with 10 rebounds for the Celtics. They had won 24 of 28 games before losing back-to-back games for the first time in two months. Oshae Brissett and Jalen Smith scored 17 points apiece for the Pacers.

Jack Eichel had his first multi-goal game with Vegas, tallying twice, as the Golden Knights defeated the host Seattle Kraken 5-2 on Friday night.
Logan Thompson’s bid for a second straight shutout was thwarted at 10:44 of the third period as Seattle’s Alex Wennberg took a drop pass from Jared McCann and beat the screened goaltender from the slot. Thompson made 26 saves.
Shea Theodore also scored and Jonathan Marchessault and William Karlsson added empty-netters for Vegas, which swept the two-game series in Seattle and won its fourth in a row overall. The Golden Knights (38-28-4, 80 points) moved past the Dallas Stars and into the second and final wild-card position in the Western Conference.
Kole Lind scored his first NHL goal for the Kraken (21-41-6, 48 points), and Philipp Grubauer stopped 21 of the 24 shots he faced.
Eichel opened the scoring at 10:28 of the first period. Chandler Stephenson kept the puck in the offensive zone and fed defenseman Alec Martinez on the left side. Martinez drove to the bottom of the faceoff circle before centering the puck, and Eichel tipped it between Grubauer’s pads.
Eichel made it 2-0 at 1:26 of the second period after skating hard into the offensive zone to beat a defender to the faceoff circle and prevent an icing call. A Seattle defenseman lost his edge and control of the puck in the left wing corner and it bounced off the side of the net before Evgenii Dadonov picked up the loose puck and fed Eichel in front for a one-timer.
Theodore, a defenseman, joined the rush, skated down the middle of the ice and made it 3-0 at 7:20 of the second after taking a pass from Dadonov on the right wing. Theodore, who played his junior hockey in Seattle, also scored in Vegas’ 3-0 victory over the Kraken on Wednesday.
McCann, the Kraken’s leading goal-scorer, tried to spark his team midway through the second, dropping the gloves with Vegas’ Michael Amadio.
Seattle’s Yanni Gourde and Vegas’ Ben Hutton duked it out in the waning seconds of the middle period.

NEW ORLEANS (KSNT)- Kansas basketball had an open practice on Thursday in the Superdome ahead of their Final Four match against Villanova.
The practice was open to media and fans. KU super-fans flocked from all over the country, many driving or flying from the state of Kansas for the big basketball weekend.
Kansas and the other three remaining teams in the NCAA tournament had 50-minute practice sessions open for all to see before the action kicks off on Friday. Fans got a look at the Jayhawks’ team as they prepare for their biggest game yet this year, and got a look at Caesers Superdome, the stadium in downtown New Orleans which is hosting this year’s Final Four.
Students, and past students, came down to the ‘Big Easy’ for college basketball’s biggest event of the year. Many of them took the opportunity to get an early look at the team and the venue on Thursday. For some fans, the opportunity to watch KU play on the biggest stage has been a long time coming.
“We’ve been trying to come to a Final Four now for three years. Back in 2020 we had tickets and it got cancelled because of COVID, pushed forward a year, cancelled because of COVID,” said Ryan Peck, a Wichita native and graduate from KU Law School.
The NCAA tournament was not played in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. In 2021, the tournament was played with limited fans in attendance. Peck says he and his family had tickets to this year’s Final Four before even knowing if the Jayhawks would be playing in it.
“We were coming, KU or not. It just so happened we got lucky and this team has been awesome this year. Now we get to see our Jayhawks play in New Orleans,” Peck said.
One student says it was an 18-hour road trip for him and his friends, who decided to buy Final Four tickets the day after the Jayhawks clinched their spot.
“I’ve been to every home game this year. I love basketball,” said Ryan Claus, a junior at KU. “It’s worth [the trip], baby,” Claus said.
Fans willing to make the effort of travelling to New Orleans and pay the price of gas, airfare and game tickets are likely not just casual Kansas basketball fans. For these folks, KU hoops is a big part of their lives.
“I remember when the Jayhawks won in 1988. I was seven years old. I stayed up all night afterwards making paper Jayhawks and pinning them to my shirt, because I didn’t have a KU Jayhawks shirt,” said Leavenworth native Adam Dawson.
Dawson now lives near Durham and Chapel Hill, North Carolina. He’s surrounded by Tar Heel and Blue Devils fans but that has never interfered with his love for Kansas hoops.
“I’ve always loved the Jayhawks, even though I now live in Durham and Chapel Hill, I’m a Jayhawk fan,” Dawson said.
Kansas plays Villanova on Friday at 5:09 p.m. with a ticket to the National Title game on the line.

Leading Voice in Financial Empowerment discusses "Designing Government Taskforces for the Future"
ATLANTA, April 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- This week, Operation HOPE Founder, Chairman, and CEO John Hope Bryant served as a distinguished speaker at The Annual World Government Summit (WGS) in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. With over 4,000 attendees, The World Government Summit 2022 was hosted in tandem with the closing of Expo 2020 Dubai and is the world's largest event of its kind.
Under the theme "Shaping Future Governments," the Summit brought thought leaders, global experts and decision-makers from around the world together to share disruptive ideas, policies, and institutional models that are essential in shaping effective governments for the future. The WGS 2022 took place from March 29-30 at the Dubai Exhibition Centre and hosted over 100 sessions and workshops featuring more than 100 speakers.
Bryant's session was titled "Designing Government Taskforces for the Future,' with a focus on the challenges and opportunities afforded by the global future, including shaping policies that drive progress and government development; designing the future of healthcare systems; actioning sustainability for positive impact; accelerating the global economic recovery; exploring next frontiers; building the cities of the future; enabling the future of education and work and empowering societal resilience.
"A government that is prepared for the future is one that will successfully – with clear goals, purpose, and an actionable plan – meet the needs of its citizens," said John Hope Bryant, Operation HOPE Founder, Chairman, and CEO. "In the past two years, our collective global challenges have reminded us that preparation is key. As we reach new inflection points, my hope is that leaders and governments at all levels rise to the occasion and meet the moment to serve its citizens. Be it the lingering effects of the pandemic, economic shifts, social and political unrest, or any other driving force, together we can provide hope and a future that works for all."
Bryant spoke about building government task forces for the future and his work preparing for the future of financial literacy in the US. He was instrumental in the creation of the presidential advisory councils on financial literacy, the FLEC Creation, and now President Biden's efforts around racial equity and agency prioritization.
Bryant has advised multiple sitting US Presidents and led several global initiatives, resulting in policy changes that enhanced the relationships between the government and citizens. He has served as a member of the President's Advisory Council on Financial Literacy under President George W. Bush and President Barack Obama. As a champion for financial wellness and economic equity, he has also advised President Bill Clinton. At Bryant's recommendation, U.S. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew renamed the former U.S. Treasury Annex Building the Freedman's Bank Building, which was established by President Abraham Lincoln in 1865, to help develop newly freed African Americans as they endeavored to become financially stable.
For the past three decades, Bryant has also successfully created public-private partnerships to shift financial wellness outcomes in underserved communities through education and hands-on programming.
###
Since 1992, Operation HOPE has been moving America from civil rights to "silver rights" with the mission of making free enterprise and capitalism work for the underserved—disrupting poverty for millions of low and moderate-income youth and adults across the nation. Through its community uplift model, HOPE Inside, which received the 2016 Innovator of the Year recognition by American Banker magazine, Operation HOPE has served more than 4 million individuals and directed more than $3.2 billion in economic activity into disenfranchised communities—turning check-cashing customers into banking customers, renters into homeowners, small business dreamers into small business owners, minimum wage workers into living wage consumers, and uncertain disaster victims into financially empowered disaster survivors.

The World Government Summit (WGS), launched under the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, in 2013, is a global platform that brings together world leaders, ministers, senior officials, and policymakers to share experiences and ideas that contribute to the development of future governments and discuss the latest trends and innovative solutions for global challenges. The WGS 2022 convened this year and welcomed up to 4000 participants and 500 speakers, who are shaping the next generation of governments. For more information, visit worldgovernmentsummit.org.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned his people early Saturday that retreating Russian forces were creating “a complete disaster” outside the capital as they leave mines across “the whole territory,” including around homes and corpses.
He issued the warning as the humanitarian crisis in the encircled city of Mariupol deepened, with Russian forces blocking evacuation operations for the second day in a row. Meanwhile, the Kremlin accused the Ukrainians of launching a helicopter attack on a fuel depot on Russian soil.
Ukraine denied responsibility for the fiery blast, but if Moscow’s claim is confirmed, it would be the war’s first known attack in which Ukrainian aircraft penetrated Russian airspace.
“Certainly, this is not something that can be perceived as creating comfortable conditions for the continuation of the talks,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, five weeks after Moscow began sending upwards of 150,000 of its own troops across Ukraine’s border.
Russia continued withdrawing some of its ground forces from areas around Kyiv after saying earlier this week it would reduce military activity near the Ukrainian capital and the northern city of Chernihiv.
“They are mining the whole territory. They are mining homes, mining equipment, even the bodies of people who were killed,” Zelenskyy said in his nightly video address to the nation. “There are a lot of trip wires, a lot of other dangers.”
Ukraine’s military said it had retaken 29 settlements in the Kyiv and Chernihiv regions.
U.S. & World
Still, Ukraine and its allies warned that the Kremlin is not de-escalating to promote trust at the bargaining table, as it claimed, but instead resupplying and shifting its troops to the country’s east. Those movements appear to be preparation for an intensified assault on the mostly Russian-speaking Donbas region in the country's east, which includes Mariupol.
Zelenskyy warned of difficult battles ahead as Russia redeploys troops. “We are preparing for an even more active defense,” he said.
He did not say anything about the latest round of talks, which took place Friday by video. At a round of talks earlier in the week, Ukraine said it would be willing to abandon a bid to join NATO and declare itself neutral — Moscow’s chief demand — in return for security guarantees from several other countries.
The invasion has left thousands dead and driven more than 4 million refugees from Ukraine.
Mariupol, the shattered and besieged southern port city, has seen some of the worst suffering of the war. Its capture would be a major prize for Russian President Vladimir Putin, giving his country an unbroken land bridge to Crimea, seized from Ukraine in 2014.
On Friday, the International Committee for the Red Cross said it was unable to carry out an operation to bring civilians out of Mariupol by bus. City authorities said the Russians were blocking access to the city.
“We do not see a real desire on the part of the Russians and their satellites to provide an opportunity for Mariupol residents to evacuate to territory controlled by Ukraine,” Petro Andryushchenko, an adviser to Mariupol's mayor, wrote on the Telegram messaging app.
He said Russian forces “are categorically not allowing any humanitarian cargo, even in small amounts, into the city.”
Around 100,000 people are believed to remain in the city, down from a prewar 430,000. Weeks of Russian bombardment and street fighting have caused severe shortages of water, food, fuel and medicine.
“We are running out of adjectives to describe the horrors that residents in Mariupol have suffered,” Red Cross spokesperson Ewan Watson said.
On Thursday, Russian forces blocked a 45-bus convoy attempting to evacuate people from Mariupol and seized 14 tons of food and medical supplies bound for the city, Ukrainian authorities said.
Zelenskyy said more than 3,000 people were able to leave Mariupol on Friday.
He said he discussed the humanitarian disaster with French President Emmanuel Macron by telephone and with the president of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola, during her visit to Kyiv.
“Europe doesn’t have the right to be silent about what is happening in our Mariupol,” Zelenskyy said. “The whole world should respond to this humanitarian catastrophe.”
Elsewhere, at least three Russian ballistic missiles were fired late Friday at the Odesa region on the Black Sea, regional leader Maksim Marchenko said. The Ukrainian military said the Iskander missiles did not hit the critical infrastructure they targeted.
Odesa is Ukraine’s largest port and the headquarters of its navy.
As for the fuel depot explosion, Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said two Ukrainian helicopter gunships flew in extremely low and attacked the civilian oil storage facility on the outskirts of the city of Belgorod, about 25 kilometers (16 miles) from the Ukraine border.
The regional governor said two workers at the depot were wounded, but the Rosneft state oil company denied anyone was hurt.
Oleksiy Danilov, secretary of Ukraine’s national security council, said on Ukrainian television: “For some reason they say that we did it, but in fact this does not correspond with reality."
Later, in an interview with Fox, Zelenskyy refused to say whether Ukraine was behind the attack.
On the outskirts of Kyiv, where Russian troops have withdrawn, damaged cars lined the streets of Irpin, a suburban area popular with young families, now in ruins. Emergency workers carried elderly people on stretchers over a wrecked bridge to safety.
Three wooden crosses next to a residential building that was damaged in a shelling marked the graves of a mother and son and an unknown man. A resident who gave her name only as Lila said she helped hurriedly bury them on March 5, just before Russian troops moved in.
“They were hit with artillery and they were burned alive,” she said.
An Irpin resident who gave his name only as Andriy said the Russians packed up their equipment and left on Tuesday. The next day, they shelled the town for close to an hour before Ukrainian soldiers retook it.
“I don’t think this is over,” Andriy said. “They will be back.”

Jerrod Carmichael is coming out as gay in his new HBO special, Rothaniel.
According to Variety, the 34-year-old comedian makes the personal declaration after telling a story about realizing his father had been cheating on his mother for years. He later looks out at the audience and says, "After that was out in the open, I was left alone feeling like a liar, because I had a secret. One that I kept from my father, my mother, my family, my friends, and you. Professionally, personally. And the secret is that I'm gay."
The outlet reports that, following a long silence, the audience started clapping, much to Carmichael's relief.
"I'm accepting the love, I really appreciate the love. My ego wants to rebel against it," said the comedian, who taped the special in February in New York City. "I rebelled against it my whole life. I thought I'd never, ever come out. At many points I thought I'd rather die than confront the truth of that, to actually say it to people. Because I know it changes some people's perception of me. I can't control that."
Carmichael, who is hosting Saturday Night Live this weekend with musical guest Gunna, had previously talked about his sexual experiences with men in his 2019 HBO special, Home Video. In that special, Carmichael shared that he'd "hooked up with dudes before," something he said he had discussed with his mother. In his latest stand-up special, Carmichael admits his relationship with his mom has been uneasy since he came out to her.
"As much as she believes in God, I believe in personal growth and feeling free," Carmichael says in Rothaniel. "And I do feel freer."
According to Variety, the special touches on the comedian's family history and his coming out process. His stand-up special premieres Friday, April 1 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on HBO.

Japanese star leads LPGA major
Associated Press
RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. – Hinako Shibuno’s first impression of Mission Hills Country Club was far from confidence-inspiring – and, in hindsight, mistaken.
“It was a hard course for me. I couldn’t even imagine I could play here,” the 23-year-old from Japan said through a translator Friday, recalling the initial time she played the event now known as The Chevron Championship.
A year and a half after tying for 51st in her debut, she took a one-stroke lead into the weekend on the mountain-framed course hosting the major championship for the last time. The tournament that started in 1972 and became a major in 1983 is shifting to Houston next year after failing to attract a sponsor willing to keep it at Mission Hills.
Shibuno opened with a tap-in birdie on the par-4 first and had another on the par-4 10th.
“That makes it easier to play golf,” she said.
The 2019 Women’s British Open champion chipped in on the par-4 13th for the last of her seven birdies, against a lone bogey in warm and sunny morning conditions. She’s sticking with the routine that has worked so far.
“I’m going to do just same thing,” Shibuno said. “I’m going to eat and I’m going to sleep.”
Defending champion Patty Tavatanakit (69), Annie Park (67) and Jennifer Kupcho (70) were a stroke back. Sei Young Kim (67) and Hyo Joo Kim (67) followed at 7 under.
PGA TOUR: In San Antonio, Ryan Palmer shot a bogey-free round of 6-under 66 at the Valero Texas Open to lead by two shots over Kevin Chappell, Dylan Frittelli and Matt Kuchar after Friday’s second round.
Palmer, at 10 under, surged into the lead with consecutive birdies midway through the back nine.
Chappell, the 2017 tournament winner, had the day’s low round of 65. Frittelli also got away with no bogeys during his 66, and Kuchar shot 69 with four-straight birdies on the back.
Palmer’s last Tour win came in 2019. He took the lead with a 5-foot birdie putt at the par-5 14th. At 15 he converted another birdie putt inside 10 feet.
“It’s a golf course, if you get it offline, you’re going to struggle,” Palmer said. “I was able to keep the ball in front of me. When I’ve missed fairways, I’ve gotten fortunate breaks, I think. So the weekend, it’s a matter of just avoiding those big misses.”
Hideki Matsuyama withdrew after nine holes Friday with a sore neck, leaving early ahead of his Masters title defense next week.
CHAMPIONS: In Biloxi, Mississippi, Padraig Harrington and Tim Herron each shot a 5-under 67 to share the lead at the Rapiscan Systems Classic after the first round.
Stephen Ames and David McKenzie were a stroke back at Grand Bear Golf Club. Six players were another stroke behind, including Retief Goosen, a two-time U.S. Open winner.

GreenFirst Forest Products Inc. will restart a second paper machine at its Kapuskasing paper mill in Ontario after receiving government funds to support recruiting and training new staff.
The Canadian forest management and lumber production company said it received 1.2 million Canadian dollars, the equivalent of US$959,501, from Ontario's Ministry of Labour, Training and Skills Development. The funds will support recruiting, hiring, and training more than 45 new employees, the company said.
GreenFirst acquired the paper mill, with one operating one paper machine, from Rayonier Advanced Materials last August. GreenFirst said it will restart a second paper machine in May, with full production seen by October.
Shares fell 4.5% to C$1.91 in Friday midday trading.

MGK’s Album Release Party Was Epic, And I Had A Front-Row Seat
Travis Barker, Megan Fox, Nessa Barrett, and Jxdn all supported their pop-punk king.
Chaos follows Machine Gun Kelly everywhere he goes. He’s donned a no f*cks given attitude since his days playing rap shows in Ohio, long before he moved to Los Angeles, helped revive pop-punk, and got engaged to Megan Fox. I see glimpses of this history and what his future might entail while watching him work the room at a recent rooftop party.
On March 31, Spotify hosted an album release event for his new record, Mainstream Sellout, at The Lot in West Hollywood. For four hours, I took in the California sunset alongside glitzy celebrities. Quickly, I realized if anyone knows how to throw an epic party, it’s MGK.
Though I get to the venue early, MGK is already there. Backstage, he emerges from his trailer calm. “I had to wake up at 4 a.m. today,” he says to a small group of friends. “I’m trying to get so big you don’t have to wake up at 4 a.m.”
He’s hiding any tiredness behind his blazer. It’s sequined and oversized. Or, is it a shirt? Either way, he’s hopping on Timothée Chalamet’s sternum-barring trend by going shirtless underneath the glittering jacket.
I then head to the rooftop where hors d’oeuvres are being passed and I find myself unexpectedly chilly. I’m thankful Spotify set up dozens of heaters.
Naturally, when MGK makes his grand entrance, fans swirl around him. He’s unfazed, taking selfies while guitar techs, stage managers, and friends pass blunts and drink beers. MGK notably remains empty-handed. After all, this is a work event for him, and he has an impressive guest list to entertain.
According to a press release, Megan Fox came to support her beau, though I could barely spot her. Elsewhere, TikTokers float around the space. Nessa Barrett and JXDN (a Barker protégé) chat by the bar. Across the room, Travis Barker’s son Landon says his hellos.
Drinks flow from an open bar, but the real fun comes from the activities Spotify placed throughout the party. In a 12-second video booth, guests simulate a mock crime scene. In another area, people are snapping videos while throwing purple tomatoes at MGK’s face. It’s a callback to the Mainstream Sellout album cover. There’s also a station for MGK’s nail polish line, UN/DN LAQR.
About two hours into the night, Baker finally takes the stage and launches into the 2020 song, “Concert For Aliens.” It’s a false start. MGK stops for a quick soundcheck before diving into newer tracks, playing some of them live in front of an audience for the first time.
This realization makes him sentimental. “The album isn’t the reason we’re here. The people that I’m looking at in front of us right now [are] the reason we’re here,” he says.
His infectious new collabs “Emo Girl” with Willow and “Make Up Sex” with Blackbear make the setlist, but neither collaborators attend the party. He’s not alone onstage long. Iann Dior joins him to play their 2020 track, “nothing inside.” Then Landon Barker appears for a performance of “Die in California.” Travis is behind MGK, drumming along.
The host loosens up as his night goes on, cracking jokes with the crowd and chugging a stolen beer from a fan. MGK grows daring and stands on the rooftop’s ledge. He briefly sings to fans in the street below like a pop-punk king speaking to his subjects.
As Baker closes his set with “My Ex’s Best Friend,” dessert is served on passed plates. I treat myself to several fried Oreos before exiting through the backdoor. On my way out, I spot a slew of photographers waiting to snap a coveted pic of MGK and Fox.
It’s a fraught endeavor. No photo would encapsulate MGK’s night. Sure, the party and his persona are delightfully over-the-top, but it’s clear simple conversation and singing a few songs with peers and admirers is still MGK’s favorite way to spend his time...no matter how much he sellouts.

COP26: Little time, but 'mountain to climb' at UN climate talks
After COP26, UAE energy summit stresses on investment in fossil fuel
Global emissions back to pre-pandemic levels after unexpected drop in 2020
Britain's countryside transitioning from fossil fuels to clean power
-
A flurry of summits this week across Dubai addressed the threat of climate change, or at least acknowledged that a pivot away from fossil fuels toward cleaner sources of power is needed to keep temperatures from rising.
The glaring fault lines, however, lie on when and how to achieve this. For fossil fuel producers, like the United Arab Emirates, which hosted the gatherings, more investments, not less, are needed in oil and gas.
We definitely at this time need to include all available resources, UAE Minister of Energy, Suhail al-Mazrouei, said at an energy forum in Dubai.
We cannot ignore or say we are going to abandon certain production. It's just not the right time, whatever reason you have, he said, adding that doing so would make prices too high for millions around the world.
It was a drumbeat echoed throughout the week in Dubai, reflecting the prominent voice fossil fuel producers are seeking to have in the global climate change conversation.
It rang out at the Atlantic Council Global Energy Forum, the World Government Summit and a UAE-sponsored climate week in partnership with the United Nations.
OPEC Secretary-General Mohammad Sanusi Barkindo said that in the upcoming UN climate talks, known as COP27, in Egypt and next year's COP28 in the UAE, producers can address issues around "inclusiveness to ensure no sector is left behind, to address the issue of investment in the industry and to reassess the conversation."
He said limiting global temperature rise to no more than 1.5 degrees C (2.7 degrees F) and the role of oil and gas are not mutually exclusive.
That amount of warming compared to pre-industrial times is a benchmark and scientists say warming beyond it will expose people worldwide to far more extremes.
To drive home the argument, proponents of more fossil fuel investments pointed repeatedly to current high oil and gas prices as reminders of the global demand for oil. There was near derision at times that countries like the United States, the UK and others are calling for fossil fuel use to ramp down in the long term but also pleading for more oil to bring down prices for consumers.
The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and other international bodies have said that to address climate change there should not be new investments in fossil fuel infrastructure and that the fuels, which are mostly responsible for climate change, must phase out over time.
That was reiterated in a 350-page report this week by The International Renewable Energy Agency that said the world must take radical action by investing USD 5.7 trillion each year through 2030 to shift away from fossil fuels. IRENA, which happens to be headquartered in the UAE capital of Abu Dhabi, said investments of $700 billion should be diverted away from the fossil fuel sector each year.
The energy transition is far from being on track and anything short of radical action in the coming years will diminish, even eliminate, chances to meet our climate goals, said Francesco La Camera, the director-general of IRENA, when the report came out.
OPEC, weighted by Saudi Arabia, projects that more oil will be needed through 2040 and beyond, particularly in Asia.
Brent crude stands at USD 105 a barrel, the highest in eight years. The prices are not only good for the oil-driven economies of Saudi Arabia and the UAE, but also Russia, helping Moscow offset some of the pain from US-led sanctions related to the war in Ukraine.
Look at what is happening today. Who's talking about climate change now? Who's talking about attending to energy security, first and foremost?, Saudi Arabia's Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman said in suggestive but careful remarks at the World Government Summit in Dubai.
Without energy security, countries will lose the means to tackle climate change, he said.
Recent data show that despite rapid growth in renewable energy, total emissions of the gases that allow the Earth to warm are going up, not down, amid rising energy demand and the expansion of fossil fuel use.
The International Monetary Fund's Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva encouraged advanced economies to meet the goal of providing USD 100 billion a year in climate finance to developing countries.
She made the remarks this week at Dubai's World Government Summit, where she unveiled an IMF paper titled Feeling the Heat, about adapting to climate change in the Middle East.
The argument made repeatedly by Sultan al-Jaber, who is both the UAE's Special Envoy for Climate Change and Managing Director of Abu Dhabi's state-owned oil company, is that the energy transition will take time. And in that period of time, he says, the world will need more oil and gas.
Put simply, we cannot and we must not unplug the current energy system before we have built the new one, he said at the energy forum.
At the UN-backed climate week event, which took place at the opulent Altantis hotel, he said the push to divest from hydrocarbons has led to a supply crunch.
In his dual roles as climate change envoy and head of ADNOC, the state-owned oil and gas firm, al-Jaber symbolizes the two paths the UAE is taking.
On one hand, the country has committed to net-zero emissions within its own borders by 2050. On the other, it is committing to more oil and gas production for export. The country's commitments do not apply to the emissions from burning that fuel.
Al-Jaber summed up this dual track, saying the UAE is expanding production capacity of what he dubbed the world's least carbon-intensive oil to over 5 million barrels per day and its natural gas capacity by 30 per cent. Simultaneously, the UAE has plans to invest USD 160 billion in renewable energy to achieve its net-zero pledge.
Saudi Arabia, which pledged to have net-zero emissions by 2060, is similarly cutting emissions domestically while vowing to keep pumping oil until the last drop. The production capacity increases come as Gulf Arab countries experience rising temperatures and humidity, as well as water scarcity, threatening food security and life across the Middle East.
At the UN climate week event, environmentally conscious participants sipped on coffee and tea and feasted on buffet lunches in between panels and workshops on everything from food sustainability to water scarcity to carbon-credit swaps.
It left Yara Wael, 23, from Alexandria, Egypt, excited for her country's turn at hosting this year's major global climate summit, but she was also left baffled. She works with Egypt's Banlastic, which aims to end single-use plastic, and this was her first trip outside Egypt.
She pointed out how the paper cups for coffee and tea could have been biodegradable or reusable, and questioned where all the leftover food from the buffet was going.
When we hold an event on the environment or climate change, we have to think about ourselves and what we're doing now," she said.

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti is boosted by some vital first team returns from injury for their key La Liga trip to Celta Vigo this weekend.
Los Blancos return to the day job of the title race this weekend following on from the international break with a nine-point lead at the top of the table as it stands.
However, despite their strong advantage ahead of the journey to Galicia, Ancelotti will be determined to bounce back from a 4-0 El Clasico mauling at home to Barcelona last time out.
📋✅ ¡Nuestros convocados para el #CeltaRealMadrid! pic.twitter.com/vydi98ZpUc
— Real Madrid C.F. (@realmadrid) April 1, 2022
French duo Karim Benzema and Ferland Mendy are both back in the squad, after missing out against La Blaugrana, with the pair expected to go straight back into the starting XI.
Gareth Bale is also back in the squad, after a starring role with Wales in their 2022 World Cup qualifying play off win over Austria, but he is unlikely to feature from the start at the Estadio Balaidos.

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has said a self-acclaimed disciple of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, Simon Ekpa and his gang called “Autopilot” were responsible for the criminal activities across the region.
The group disclosed this while informing Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State that it was not responsible for the criminal activities in the region.
Emma Powerful, the spokesman of the separatist group, said Ekpa and his gang were threatening residents of the South-East over non-compliance with the Monday sit-at-home order.
A statement by Powerful reads: “It is a certain Simon Ekpa and his criminal gang called Autopilots that are carrying out threats against people’s lives because of non-existent Monday sit-at-home are criminals, kidnappers and robbers. These people disturbing the peace of our people are not IPOB members. They should be treated as criminals. IPOB doesn’t shed blood. We are a peaceful movement.”
IPOB maintained that the Monday sit-at-home order remained cancelled, adding that anybody enforcing was not its member.
He added, “We wish to reiterate once again that IPOB has cancelled Monday sit- at-home order and anybody or group enforcing the relaxed order is neither from IPOB nor from IPOB volunteer group. Any governor in the region who deemed it fit to stop non-existent Monday sit-at-home order in the region is free to do so.
“Anyone caught adding to the pain of our people in the name of enforcing Monday sit-at-home order will be treated like the enemy that he or she is.
“We, therefore, warn these agents of darkness using the name of IPOB to enforce a non-existent sit-at-home to desist because if we lay hold on them.
“Why should such unpatriotic elements be inflicting pain on our people and dragging our image to the mud? IPOB remains a non-violent movement and our peaceful approach for Biafra restoration has not changed.
“It will be recalled that IPOB leadership called for the Monday sit-at-home, and the same IPOB leadership has cancelled it.
“Nobody was given the mandate to enforce the same suspended sit-at-home using the name of IPOB. The only day sit-at-home will be observed in Biafra land is when our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is appearing in court, and we shall as usual make it public for all to know.”
The group urged leaders in the region to arrest anybody trying to enforce the sit-at-home order.

Former Bad Boy Records artist-turned-politician Moses “Shyne” Barrow has joined the chorus of voices calling for reparations from the British monarchy.
“Right now we’re in the midst of taking the United Kingdom to court for reparations,” Shyne said during an interview snippet that was shared on Twitter. “As we know in Belize, the Transatlantic Slave atrocity, the holocaust, is one of the worst things that has ever happened in humanity. The United Kingdom committed the worst crimes against humanity so there’s nothing glorious about the Queen as our head of state in any nation in the Caribbean.”
The “Bonnie & Shyne” MC was elected to the Belize House of Representatives in 2020 and is currently the Leader of the Opposition for the United Democratic Party. Though being a politician is Shyne’s second act, he was born into a family of lawmakers. His father, Dean Barrow, was elected Prime Minister of Belize in 2008.
Born Jamal Michael Barrow, Shyne was born and raised in Belize until he was 8 years old. He then moved to Brooklyn, New York, to be with his mother, where he was eventually discovered by a producer while freestyling in a barbershop.
Though he made a major impact in hip-hop, Shyne’s music career was cut short after he went to prison for eight years due to his involvement in an infamous 1999 altercation at a nightclub, which led to a shooting. Bad Boy founder Puff Daddy and his then-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez were also present, but Shyne was the only one convicted and imprisoned. He was deported in 2008 upon his release.
Shyne changed his name to Moses Michael Levi Barrow in 2006 after converting to Judaism. He is one of only nine members of visible African descent in the 31-member Belize House of Representatives, Breaking Belize News reported. The official act to sue the monarchy is called the “Reparatory Justice for the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade and Slavery in British Honduras Motion.”
Listen to GHOGH with Jamarlin Martin | Episode 74: Jamarlin Martin
Jamarlin returns for a new season of the GHOGH podcast to discuss Bitcoin, bubbles, and Biden. He talks about the risk factors for Bitcoin as an investment asset including origin risk, speculative market structure, regulatory, and environment. Are broader financial markets in a massive speculative bubble?
In a separate statement, Shyne expounded on the reason reparations are needed in Belize.
“Іt іѕ nоt thаt thоѕе уоung mеn, thоѕе уоung wоmеn wаnt tо lіvе lіkе thаt. Вut wе hаvе tо rесоgnіzе thаt thеrе wаѕ а реrіоd іn thіѕ соuntrу аnd оthеr nаtіоnѕ whеrе реорlе wеrе fоrсеd tо bе аnіmаlѕ; thеу wеrе fоrсеd nоt tо thіnk,” Shyne said, describing the atrocities of the slave trade that still impact young people in Belize today.
“Іf уоu wеrе саught rеаdіng уоu wеrе kіllеd. Nоbоdу tаught thе реорlе іn Веlіzе whо wеrе brоught hеrе tо buіld Веlіzе. Nоbоdу tаught thеm tо bе frее, tо bе lаndоwnеrѕ, tо bе еntrерrеnеurѕ. Nоbоdу tаught thеm thаt,” Shyne added. “Аnd thаt іѕ whаt rераrаtіоnѕ іѕ аll аbоut. It’ѕ nоt аbоut ѕауіng hеrе’ѕ а соuрlе hundrеd mіllіоn dоllаrѕ, bесаuѕе уоu саn gіvе ѕоmеоnе а hundrеd mіllіоn dоllаrѕ аnd thеу wоuld ѕtіll bе рооr.”
Though Shyne was in Liberia when the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge visited Belize, he said if he were there, he would have asked them about reparations.
“I must say had I been here, I would have taken the opportunity to press William and Kate about reparations. They owe Belize and the Caribbean and all the nations that they colonized a vast amount of in financial reparatory considerations as well as an apology,” Shyne said.
“It is something that we need to consider when the so-called monarchs visit our country,” Shyne continued. “What is there to celebrate? When we get our reparations, the money that is owed to us, the apology that is owed to us and we become a republic and from the monarch, then we can celebrate. Then they can come as quasi-celebrities and vacate, but this entire prestige that is given to people who were enslaved, I guess everybody was not enslaved and I guess some of the people who weren’t enslaved feel, ‘Well, that has nothing to do with me,’ but it does.”

Update on the situation regarding the coupon payment for the Eurobond 2024
PAO Severstal (MOEX: CHMF; LSE: SVST) informs that further to our latest disclosures to the holders of the LPNA dated the 23rd and 29th of March 2022 regarding the pending interest payment on the loan relating to Loan Participation Notes due 2024 (LPN) issued by Steel Capital S.A. (the "Issuer") in the amount of US$12,6 mln, on 31 March 2022 Severstal also filed license applications with the UK Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation (OFSI) and the competent sanctions authorities in Luxembourg and Ireland. This complements the filings to the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control that Severstal made on the 28th of March 2022.
These applications request that OFSI and other relevant competent authorities in the European Union grant specific licenses authorizing, to the extent such authorization is required under applicable sanctions, the financial institutions and other parties involved in the LPN program to resume normal processing of payments that are or become due under the LPN program. This would include the transfer of the interest due to the Issuer to the latter's bank account with the Paying Agent (Citibank, N.A., London Branch), and the normal onward payment of those funds on behalf of the Issuer towards the holders of the LPN.
Mindful of the urgency of the matter we have requested that the relevant competent authorities consider our application on an expedited basis.
Severstal will keep all interested parties informed of the progress of the submitted license applications.

Overnight Defense & National Security — Sparring over sub deal intensifies
It’s Monday, welcome to Overnight Defense & National Security, your nightly guide to the latest developments at the Pentagon, on Capitol Hill and beyond. Subscribe here: thehill.com/newsletter-signup.
Accusations are still flying over a controversial submarine deal between the United States, Australia and the United Kingdom that left out France.
We’ll share the latest grievances and the response, plus cyber concerns ahead of Election Day and the State Department’s message for China in regards to Taiwan.
For The Hill, I’m Ellen Mitchell. Write to me with tips: emitchell@thehill.com.
Let’s get to it.
Macron says Australia lied
French President Emmanuel Macron said that Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison lied about the submarine deal that scuppered relations between the countries last month.
‘I don’t think, I know’: “I have a lot of respect for your country. I have a lot of respect and a lot of friendship for your people. I just say when we have respect … you have to behave in line and consistently with this value,” Macron told reporters, speaking about Australia and its prime minister.
“Do you think he lied to you?” a reporter asked the French president.
“I don’t think, I know,” Macron answered.
Australia bites back: Morrison disputed Macron’s remarks, claiming he had expressed to the French president that conventional submarines France was building for Australia wouldn’t suffice, Reuters reported.
After Macron’s statement, Australian Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce also said “we didn’t deface the Eiffel Tower,” according to The Associated Press.
Joyce further noted that contracts have “terms and conditions,” adding that Australia “got out of that contract” with France.
MORE FRUSTRATION
Macron’s stinging remarks illustrate France’s lasting frustration over a deal announced in September. Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States announced a trilateral partnership to help Australia acquire nuclear submarines, effectively throwing out a previous deal France had secured with Australia.
The deal blindsided France, and the country recalled its ambassadors to Australia and the U.S. in response. However, France’s ambassador to the U.S. later returned to Washington, D.C.
What has Biden said?: The back and forth comes just several days after President Biden met with Macron in Italy during the U.S. president’s trip to Europe, acknowledging that his administration’s handling of the deal “was not done with a lot of grace.”
“I think what happened was, to use an English phrase, what we did was clumsy,” Biden told reporters on Friday during the meeting at the French Embassy to the Holy See. “It was not done with a lot of grace. I was under the impression certain things had happened that hadn’t happened.”
Cyber threats in focus on eve of Election Day
Officials are on alert for threats to elections ahead of Election Day in states including Virginia on Tuesday, one year after a contentious 2020 presidential election.
Monitoring efforts: The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) put out a statement Monday announcing that it would set up an election situational awareness room to monitor elections in over 30 states.
This space will serve to coordinate election security efforts between CISA, the key agency responsible for election security, and election officials at the state and local levels, along with representatives from political organizations and other private sector groups.
‘No credible threats yet’: CISA stressed Monday that while preparations were underway to monitor for any security concerns, there is currently “no specific, credible threat to election infrastructure.”
“CISA has supported state and local election officials to help secure their systems and push back against malicious actors seeking to disrupt our democratic process and interfere in our elections,” Geoff Hale, the director of CISA’s Election Security Initiative, said in a statement Monday. “We look forward to continuing this work in collaboration with our election partners to ensure the security and resilience of elections in 2021 and beyond.”
FIGHTING MISINFORMATION
CISA is again using its “rumor control” page to help push back against election disinformation and misinformation.
The page was created by the agency ahead of the 2020 presidential election, and was a key factor behind President Trump’s decision to fire former CISA Director Christopher Krebs in the days after the election, as CISA and election officials sought to stress the accuracy of the 2020 election results.
CISA Director Jen Easterly encouraged voters to visit the site, tweeting Monday that it would “help debunk election security mis-, dis-, and malinformation that aims to undermine public confidence in the electoral process.”
Some background: Efforts to secure U.S. elections have been increasingly ramped up in the years since the 2016 presidential election, when Russian actors targeted voting infrastructure in all 50 states and launched a disinformation campaign ahead of election day aimed at skewing the election in favor of now-former President Trump.
In the years since, both foreign and domestic actors have continued to use social media to spread disinformation, including Iran and Russia in advance of last year’s presidential election, and more states have zeroed in on enhancing cybersecurity of election infrastructure.
ICYMI: Blinken warns China over Taiwan
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken raised a warning to his Chinese counterpart on Sunday regarding Taiwan amid tensions over the island with Beijing, which claims it as part of its territory.
During a meeting with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi on the sidelines of the Group of 20 summit, Blinken emphasized areas in which the U.S. and China can work together, such as North Korea, Afghanistan and the climate crisis.
“He also raised concerns about a range of PRC [People’s Republic of China] actions that that undermine the international rules-based order and that run counter to our values and interests and those of our allies and partners, including actions related to human rights, Xinjiang, Tibet, Hong Kong, the East and South China Seas, and Taiwan,” the State Department said.
Timing: This meeting took place just days after Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen confirmed the presence of U.S. troops in the self-governing island nation.
“We have a wide range of cooperation with the U.S. aiming at increasing our defense capability,” Tsai said in an interview on CNN last week, though she said there were “not as many as people thought.”
“I do have faith and given the long term relationship that we have [with] the U.S. and also the support [of] the people of the U.S. as well as the Congress, and the administration has been very helpful,” she added.
Previous support: Last week, Blinken also expressed support for Taiwan joining the United Nations (U.N.), saying he was being “pragmatic.”

The window of opportunity to take action to mitigate against severe climate change is right now, it won’t last.
This isn’t a remote problem that someone else must fix. It’s one we all must embrace. This need for action should guide much of what we do in transport, where emissions are higher than for other sectors. That is the “upstream problem” that should drive every action “downstream” for surface, air and shipping transport. Targets and action should be led by the science. As the saying goes, “science without policy is science, but policy without science is gambling”. To the Scottish Government’s credit the target to reduce car kilometres travelled by 20 per cent by 2030 is based on what we must achieve by 2030.
Here and now our expectations for travel are a problem, or to be more precise the travel behaviours and expectations of the wealthier segments in society are. The wealthiest drive on average 2.5 times more than the poorest and hence produce higher tailpipe emissions. Moreover, the current regressive taxation regimes result in the poorest drivers paying over a quarter of their disposable household income on motor vehicles compared with 8% for the wealthiest households. This matters.
We cannot transition to low and no carbon transport, even just considering urban areas, without supporting those on low incomes. The biggest emissions reductions contribution have to come from the biggest emitters. In the world of road transport researchers speak of “latent” and “suppressed demand” for active travel. There is a store of evidence that if the environment was safer (same low risk of injury as for car occupants in urban areas) many more people would choose to walk, cycle, and use public transport for those under five-mile urban trips (suppressed demand). Such change would have ripple effects to stimulate “latent demand” – where services that don’t yet exist or facilities that if put in – make environments more attractive and stimulate sustainable transport use.
Humans are, however, not keen on changing their travel behaviour. In recent decades, we have tried to use voluntary approaches, with hopes of technological fixes being enough, including electric cars. While we do need technological advances to bring down overall transport energy demand we also absolutely need substantial lifestyle changes too.
So, removing multiple barriers to behaviour change is key and one of the top ones is loss aversion. This includes the comfort of my own space, not beholden to timetables, and the status that certain car brands are perceived to convey to some. We will need help here through other channels. Who are our change facilitators? Who influences us consciously and unconsciously? Some of these are surprisingly close to hand – neighbours, friends, as well as celebrity endorsements – not for car brands – but for bus, train, bikes, walking and car-sharing.
But do Scots really perceive the threat as real and urgent? Faced with an invisible virus, we have achieved major changes – including how we travel –over the past two years. Politicians were understandably nervous of that too many wouldn’t obey orders and new social norms. Yet, they did obey. So, part of the communications work, and not just from Government, must be demonstrating the tangible threat but that working together, we can reduce our transport carbon enough while retaining quality of life.
An aide in planning the transport sector energy transition is to consider enabling choice, helping people choose pro-environment travel modes they would be attracted to if it were not for various physical, fiscal, or other barriers. We can think of nudges to travel behaviour change like going up rungs of a ladder. We can move up one rung simply by offering information on the basis that most of us have imperfect knowledge of the range of travel options available. That is, however, very unlikely to achieve much change at all.
We have to go up two rungs or more. This can involve changes which offer a pro-environment choice as the default option and which is incentivised in several ways. The incentivisation may include significant time savings by travelling by bus, with further incentivises, such as cheaper entry to events or shop discounts. Any disincentivises to car use added on top, such as reallocating one of the two lanes of dual carriageways to buses and bicycles, makes the sustainable travel options more attractive.
The UK has the most expensive public transport in Europe which incentivises people to drive not least through up-front investment in car ownership which stimulates use. That “locked in” barrier to other modes has to become the exception, as has happened far more on continental Europe with car-clubs and sharing schemes which then removes the substantial upfront ownership costs.
Payment by use would also be fairer. In Scotland we have the welcome move to free bus travel for the under 22s since January 31st. If we then provide more dedicated road space for buses as a positive intervention and increase car parking charges the price signal will more likely enable pro-environment choices. For example, those aged 60 plus with free bus travel, can now take their grandchildren out using buses rather than driving a car.
Think too about central London, most people don’t drive or limit their driving because there is a weekday 7am to 6pm and weekend 12.00 to 6pm charge for entry. If, however, you have an ultra-low fuel vehicle you are exempt, so that’s a price disincentive through the charge (with some exceptions) plus some incentives. That’s not a great example as it’s still largely regressive, and residents in the zone get a 90% discount.
But the other factor is that the public transport options are very obvious, prices are capped to make them more affordable and the system with contactless payments is relatively easy to use. That’s up a couple of rungs on the ladder – guided choice through incentives. Here, bus use is a social norm – you use it regularly, your neighbours do too, and it’s become an engrained habit for the majority.
Enabling choice forms part of a ratcheting up which may need to include restricting choice in order achieve the carbon reductions needed, particularly among those who travel most. This series of steps is taken from the Nuffield Ladder of Interventions.
It is a method of thinking about the acceptability and justification of different public health policies. It also has to be multi-layered, in that we cannot really on just a few incentivisation “carrots”. Incentives must be widespread, systematic and obvious. In a 2019 study of how to get more people walking and cycling the evidence for positive impact was greatest for whole town and city-wide interventions. This means multi-faceted incentivisation and revolved around investment in the physical infrastructure.
The messaging needs to be targeted to the numerous travel segments – from teenagers, the 20-30 year first car owners, to young mothers, elders and so on. All of this requires a huge effort, galvanised in that we are “in it for good”. A coda is that all of the above may seem wishful thinking. Yet if we look back through the history of humans settlements the car age is just a blip in time, a likely cul-de-sac, and that we can reshape or towns and cities now to be healthier and more resilient in mitigating against severe climate challenge.

History teacher removed after hanging Black doll in classroom
CHICAGO (WLS) - A heated exchange between two teachers at a Chicago high school is being investigated after one of the teachers hung a Black doll from a cord in a classroom.
It took place in front of students, and a picture of the incident circulated on social media.
On Wednesday, the school day ended at Whitney Young Magnet High School with a special listening session after the apparent racial incident.
“He [the teacher] definitely should have thought about it because that could be really sensitive, especially with it being an African American doll and something that could cause suicidal thoughts,” said high school sophomore William Schetz.
According to a letter from the school’s principal Joyce Kenner to parents, a teacher hung a small stuffed African American football doll by a pull-down string from a projector screen in their classroom. The teacher indicated he found the doll in his room and wanted the students to see if someone would claim it.
When another teacher confronted that teacher about the hanging doll, the two reportedly got into a fight.
Kenner said Chicago Public School officials have taken over the investigation of the incident and removed the history teacher.
“I believe he should be removed from the school, and his teaching degree should be taken away,” said Michelle Donegan, a student’s parent.
A spokeswoman for the Chicago Teachers Union said practices that mitigate the harm of racial biases must be ongoing and consistent in our schools.
“He knows what lynching is. He knows what hanging the doll would represent,” Donegan said.

EDWARDSVILLE – A homeless man on Thursday was charged ith burglarizing a former Ursuline Convent in Alton.
Larry A. Stark, 51, listed as homeless out of Alton, was charged March 31 with burglary, a Class 2 felony, and unlawful possession of methamphetamine, a Class 3 felony.
The case was presented by the Alton Police Department.
According to court documents, on March 30 Stark allegedly entered the former Ursuline Convent in Alton, to commit theft and was found to be in possession of less than five grams of methamphetamine.
Bail was set at $45,000.
The Ursuline Convent of the Holy Family is currently listed for sale at about $1 million. The Ursulines announced in late November 2013 that the convent and infirmary would close in 2014 after its residents were relocated. A study showed the order did not have the financial resources to maintain the facility which includes 27 acres and several buildings.
At time of the announcement, there were 35 sisters living in the facilities, 33 Ursulines and two from the Divine Providence order. The Catholic order gradually moved out its aging sisters from the convent and infirmary to other facilities; the last left in October 2014. The Ursulines auctioned off furniture, artwork, statues and other goods and equipment last March before putting the property up for sale.
The Ursulines have been in Alton since 1859, when they came to the city to teach. They opened and staffed parish schools in the greater Alton area, and completed the convent in 1926.

BEIJING — A Chinese diplomat has a suggestion for resolving the Ukraine conflict: U.S. President Joe Biden should call Russian President Vladimir Putin and promise there will be no further NATO expansion, no deployment of strategic weapons in Ukraine and that the country will remain neutral.
“Then maybe the issue will get sorted,” director general of the Chinese Foreign Ministry’s Department of European Affairs Wang Lutong told reporters in Beijing on Saturday.
“What is the purpose of the Americans? Are they going to see a cease fire in Ukraine or they would like to weaken Russia? Or some people are talking about a change in the government,” Wang said, in an apparent reference to Biden’s remark that Putin cannot be allowed to remain in office.
“If they are intent about a cease fire, I think this issue could be sorted very easily,” Wang said. His remarks followed talks between Chinese and EU leaders at which Beijing reiterated its opposition to punishing economic sanctions against Russia.
People are also reading…
Beijing has refused to criticize the Russian invasion, or even refer to it as such, opposes sanctions and rebroadcasts Russian misinformation about the conflict and unfounded claims such as that the U.S. is operating bioweapons laboratories in Ukraine.
KEY DEVELOPMENTS IN THE RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR:
— Ukraine top of agenda as China rejects sanctions at summit
— Ukraine strike on Russian territory reported as talks resume
— War in Ukraine fuels fears among draft-age Russian youths
— African refugees see racial bias as US welcomes Ukrainians

OTHER DEVELOPMENTS:
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy declined to comment on whether he ordered an attack on a Russian fuel depot.
In an interview with FOX News, Zelenskyy said he does not discuss any orders he issues as commander in chief.
Earlier, the secretary of Ukraine’s national security council denied allegations from Moscow that two Ukrainian helicopter gunships had struck the facility in the city of Belgorod north of the border at around dawn Friday.
The regional governor in Belgorod said two workers at the depot were injured, but Russian media cited a statement from state oil company Rosneft that denied anyone was hurt.
But if Moscow’s claim is confirmed, it would be the war’s first known attack in which Ukrainian aircraft penetrated Russian airspace.
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Defense Department says it is providing an additional $300 million in military equipment to Ukrainian forces defending the country from Russian troops.
Pentagon press secretary John Kirby said in a statement Friday evening that the gear in the new package includes laser-guided rocket systems, unmanned aircraft, armored vehicles, night vision devices and ammunition. Also included are medical supplies, field equipment and spare parts.
Kirby said the new package “represents the beginning of a contracting process to provide new capabilities” to Ukraine, rather than delivering equipment drawn from U.S. military stockpiles.
The U.S. has provided more than $1.6 billion in security assistance since Russia’s invasion, Kirby said.
LVIV, Ukraine — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Russian forces were leaving behind “a complete disaster” as they retreat from the north, including towns just outside Kyiv, and he warned residents to beware of more Russian shelling and of land mines.
“They are mining the whole territory, they are mining homes, mining equipment, even the bodies of people who were killed,” he said in his nighttime video address to the nation late Friday.
He urged residents to wait to resume their normal lives until they are assured that the mines have been cleared and the danger of shelling has passed.
Zelenskyy warned of difficult battles ahead as the Russians redeploy troops in eastern Ukraine.
Zelensky said he spoke Friday with French President Emmanuel Macron by telephone and with the president of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola, during her visit to Kyiv.
“Europe doesn’t have the right to be silent about what is happening in our Mariupol,” he said. “The whole world should respond to this humanitarian catastrophe.”
Zelenskyy said 3,071 people were able to leave Mariupol on Friday.
LVIV, Ukraine — A Ukrainian official said there were casualties after at least three Russian ballistic missiles were fired late Friday at the Odesa region on the Black Sea, but he did not give specifics.
Regional leader Maksim Marchenko said the missiles were fired from the Crimean Peninsula, which Russia has held since seizing it from Ukraine in 2014.
The Ukrainian military said the Iskander missiles were intended for critical infrastructure but did not hit their targets because of the response of Ukraine’s air-defense forces. It was unclear where they hit.
Odesa is Ukraine’s largest port and the headquarters of its navy.
KYIV, Ukraine — The secretary of Ukraine’s national security council has denied the country was responsible for a reported attack on a Russian fuel depot.
Moscow had earlier placed the blame on Ukraine. There was no independent confirmation of details about the incident.
“For some reason they say that we did it, but in fact this does not correspond with reality,” Oleksiy Danilov said on Ukrainian television on Friday.
Regional Gov. Vyacheslav Gladkov said earlier that two Ukrainian helicopter gunships had flown at low altitude and struck the facility in the city of Belgorod north of the border.
Two workers at the depot were injured, he said. But Russian media cited a statement from state oil company Rosneft that denied anyone was hurt.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymr Zelenskyy’s office said 86 Ukrainian service members were freed in the Zaporizhzhia region as part of a prisoner swap with Russia. The number of Russians released was not disclosed.
KYIV, Ukraine – The mayor of Kyiv said the bombardment of satellite towns near the Ukrainian capital was ongoing despite Russian promises of scaling back troops from the region.
Vitali Klitschko told British broadcaster Sky News on Friday he could hear the sounds of explosions “nonstop during the day and night.”
Klitschko said that the cities northwest of Kyiv such as Irpin, Borodyanka and Hostomel were being targeted after Ukrainian fighters moved back Russian troops, and that fighting also persisted in Brovary, east of Kyiv.
For those who may want to return to Kyiv in light of the supposed Russian withdrawal, he urged people to wait a “couple of weeks” to see how the situation develops.

Don’t waste food, Buhari tells Muslims
By Johnbosco Agbakwuru & Bashir Bello
The Sultan of Sokoto and President-General of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, His Eminence Alhaji Muhammadu Sa’ad Abubakar III has announced commencement of Ramadan fasting on Saturday.
The announcement by the Sultan followed sighting of moon from various parts of the country signalling the commencement of the Muslim fasting period.
The Sultan made the announcement yesterday in a broadcast on the Nigerian Television Authority, NTA monitored by our correspondent.
Meanwhile, President Muhammadu Buhari has joined world leaders in welcoming the month of Ramadan, the month of fasting and intense devotion for Muslims.
In a message to Nigerians and Muslims all over the world, the President said the period offers a unique opportunity to “feel the hunger experienced by the poor so as to feel what it is like to be deprived and marginalized.
“Muslims,” the President emphasized “should seek greater personal discipline, which is necessary for the realization of a great nation.”
According to a statement issued by the presidential spokesman, Mallam Garba Shehu, the President “advised Muslim elite against food waste and extravagant spending while others face hunger and destitution, urging that they should care for their neighbours, the poor and the marginalized.”
He also called for prayers for peace in the country and beyond, and for healing and harmony throughout the world.
President Buhari wished all Muslims a successful completion of the 30-day fasting period.

Presidential transition committee Chairman Ahn Cheol-soo visits the headquarters of HYBE, the K-pop powerhouse that manages BTS, in Yongsan-gu central Seoul.
With an attempt to discuss ways to promote Korean culture, Ahn and the members of different subcommittees hopes to listen to voices of the artists who have been bolstering the country’s culture.
While many expected Ahn and HYNE officials to discuss about granting exemptions from military service to pop artists who have helped elevate the country’s global standing, like BTS, Shin Yong-hyun, a spokesman for the transition committee, announced that such discussion will not be made in a regular briefing on Friday.
Under the current law, all able-bodied Korean men are obliged to serve in the military. But with the culture minister’s recommendation, international award-winning athletes and classical musicians can complete their service while remaining active professionally.

Spain Manufacturing Growth Slows In March
(RTTNews) - Spain's manufacturing sector continued to expand in March but the pace of growth eased due to the uncertainties caused by the war in Ukraine, data released by S&P Global showed on Friday.
The manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index dropped to 54.2 in March from 56.9 in April. This was the lowest reading for over a year.
New order books were down for the first time since January 2021, whilst output growth sank noticeably to hit its lowest in the past 14 months.
The war in Ukraine served to exacerbate already embedded supply-chain and inflationary pressures. Overall prices for inputs rose to the sharpest degree since last November. At the same time, output prices logged a near record increase in March.
At the same time, employment grew at the weakest pace in 13 months of expansion. Confidence about the future was at its lowest level since May 2020.

DR. RICKIE HARRIS — West Orange-Cove success comes with teamwork, celebrate our latest stars
Published 12:24 am Saturday, April 2, 2022
Spring has sprung, and the activities at West Orange-Cove CISD are in full bloom.
As we prepare to close the 2021-22 school year, students and staff are busy with the year-end activities and accolades.
T’Era Garrett represented WOS Powerlifting at the Texas High School Women’s Powerlifting Association State Championship in Corpus Christi on March 18. We are always proud to have representation at the state level, and Miss Garrett did an outstanding job competing at such a high level.
Michael Wardlow was named as a member of the 2021-22 UIL Boys 4A All-Region Basketball Team.
The 1400 HP Drumline competed at the High Noon Drum Showdown at Lamarque High School, coming home with Best Snareline and 2nd place overall.
I recognized two outstanding students at the board meeting on March 28 for passing their AWS D.1 test in welding. These students are now certified to weld structural steel, so following graduation from WOS, they can begin a well-paying career.
One of our main goals at WOCCISD is to prepare students for the workforce and provide trained individuals for local industry. Great job by Camilo Sanchez and Benjamin Luna and their welding teacher, Mr. Fletcher.
Additionally, in the board meeting, the WOCCISD Board of Trustees approved naming the baseball playing field Andre Robertson Field, honoring a WO HS alum deserving of his mark on history.
Mr. Robertson has paved the way for many, and we will honor him in a naming ceremony at a later date.
The bond projects are still moving along. We have been up against COVID delays; however, progress continues on the event center and the transportation building.
The event center roof is completely installed, and the transportation building is almost in the dry so we should have fewer delays due to bad weather. We look forward to the completion of these facilities later this summer or early fall.
There is never a dull moment here at WOCCISD. It takes a great team to do it all, and as I always quote John Maxwell’s philosophy that “One is too small a number to achieve greatness.” Go Mustangs!
Dr. Rickie Harris is the West Orange-Cove Consolidated Independent School District superintendent. Reach him at 409-882-5500.

Formula One will continue to hold the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix despite an attack on an oil storage facility near the track prior to last weekend’s race and criticism of the nation’s human right record, CEO Stefano Domenicali told Reuters. The attack by Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi group cast doubts on whether Sunday’s race in Jeddah would go forward but after discussions, F1 and the drivers decided collectively to carry on having received security assurances from Saudi authorities.
IPL FULL COVERAGE | SCHEDULE | RESULTS | ORANGE CAP | PURPLE CAP
“Yes, it’s part of the calendar," Domenicali said when asked whether F1 would be back in Saudi Arabia for the third edition of the grand prix next year. He added that the decision come from the sport’s leadership with input from drivers and others.
“It is part of our job to make sure that we talk with all the stakeholders. Relevance is absolutely important for us as is open dialogue. But in terms of who is responsible for the commercialisation of the business, that’s the entity that I represent."
Saudi Arabia has signed a 15-year deal to host a race, with the fees contributing significantly to the bottom line for Formula One’s owners Liberty Media.
The grand prix also reflects the Middle East’s growing profile and influence within the sport, with state-owned energy giant Aramco a major F1 sponsor and joint title partner of the Aston Martin team.
Saudi Arabia has come under international scrutiny for its record on human rights, especially following the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul in 2018.
A U.S. intelligence report released just over a year ago said Saudi Arabia’s de facto ruler Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had approved an operation to capture or kill Khashoggi, but the Saudi government denied any involvement by the crown prince and rejected the report’s findings.
Saudi Arabia denies accusations of human rights abuses and says it protects its national security through its laws.
Domenicali said F1 can act as a force for change in the region.
“We always talk about the fact that Formula One and sport puts a spotlight on the positivity," he said.
“Our lens on every place we go gives an extra responsibility in the areas where they are trying to progress. And Formula One will make sure that will happen in a faster time."
He said the make up of the crowd at Sunday’s Saudi Arabian Grand Prix supported his case.
“If you were there last weekend, you could understand what I mean. The younger generation, women attending, kids," he said.
“Don’t forget that a couple of years ago, they were not able go out."
