About The Show RedKiteNFT is delighted to announce the imminent launch of their pioneering Humanity show, a unique NFT launch, the first of its kind, bringing together 33 artists to raise funds for refugees affected by conflict worldwide. This groundbreaking show, marrying the worlds of NFTs and Fine Art for the first time, will consist of one artwork per artist, sold in limited editions of eight, with 256 NFTs on the Polygon blockchain available for sale. It marks the beginning of a series of exciting drops orchestrated by RedKiteNFT, curating works from a community of contemporary artists to transcend traditional art collection and bring it to the NFT space on Web3. "Humanity has been a voyage of discovery for us. The charities we've been working with have opened our eyes to the global refugee crisis and the amazing long-term support they provide. It's compelling motivation to try and pull something off on this scale, so early in our journey." "The support and generosity of all the artists, partners and our discord community have been incredible. There's a lot to be proud of, the artwork is spectacular and we hope to raise a significant amount to donate through this group show." James Robbins, CMO of RedKiteNFT The show's catalyst is the current Ukraine conflict. Through the help and support of the wider art world, art collectors, creatives and fans alike, RedKiteNFT intends to bring awareness to this and other nations stricken by conflict worldwide. Global crises have caused the displacement of thousands of communities, RedKiteNFT recognises this and wants to show their support through donating proceeds to the following charities: - The Refugee Council is a leading charity working with refugees and people seeking asylum in the UK. Founded in 1951, following the creation of the UN Refugee Convention, they exist to support and empower people who have made the heart breaking decision to flee conflict, violence and persecution in order to rebuild their lives here in the UK. - The Voices of Children Foundation provide emergency assistance to women and children - refugees from all over Ukraine - essentials, settlement and relocation;provide psychological assistance to children and parents affected by the war; arranging centers for group classes with children who were evacuated from the shelling areas; provide individual assistance to families with children affected by the war. - UNICEF UK, Children's Emergency Fund The impacts of conflict, COVID-19, climate change, and other disasters are being felt around the world. And, as is so often the case in times of crisis, it is children and young people who are feeling these effects the hardest. UNICEF UK's Children's Emergency Fund (CEF) is helping to address this, providing a vital and urgent response before, during and after emergencies. Every year, thanks to the generosity of their supporters UNICEF UK responds to around 300 emergency situations. Not all of these will make the news and some will quickly be forgotten but all of them have an impact on children. Of the 70:30 per cent split each NFT usually has with RedKite and artist collaboration, RedKite will be donating 25% to the charities, retaining 5% to cover costs. All collaborating artists will donate 35% with the voluntary option to donate more. With this and the help of the art world community, RedKite hopes to make a significant contribution to the aid provided by the supported charities. "I think the recent news has touched us all in some way, leaving us feeling somewhat helpless. As with any global crisis, artists are some of the first to get involved to help out, and as an NFT platform with access to these artists and a means to raise funds, RedKite made the quick decision to put on Humanity, to aid refugee charities." "We have some fantastic artists in our lineup, most of whom jumped at the chance to be involved, turning around some brilliant works in a short space of time. This show will not disappoint." Angie Davey, Founder and Curator, RedKiteNFT NFTs will be dropped in editions of eight. NFT artwork will be available to view on the Humanity campaign site, soon to be followed by listing on the redkitenft.io marketplace with respective countdown timers to launch. Keep an eye on the RedKiteNFT Discord for the latest updates and sneak peeks. You'll probably bump into some of the artists for a chat there too. With varying prices, art enthusiasts and seasoned art collectors can come together to celebrate art and its evolution while knowing the money they invest is going towards a good cause. Additionally, a donation button will offer collectors and fans the chance to donate any sum to the cause. No matter the amount, donors will receive a thank you NFT from RedKiteNFT that will grant them access to various benefits and bring a community of art lovers together through the kind act of supporting the cause.

PONTE VEDRA, Fla., May 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Treace Medical Concepts, Inc. ("Treace" or the "Company") TMCI, a medical technology company driving a fundamental shift in the surgical treatment of hallux valgus (commonly known as bunions), today announced that it has entered into a new five-year $150 million loan arrangement with MidCap Financial, comprising up to $120 million in term loans and a $30 million revolving credit facility. Proceeds from the new term loan refinanced the Company's existing $30 million term loan from CR Group LP. In addition, the new revolving credit facility will expand the Company's revolving credit capacity and replace the undrawn existing $10 million revolving credit facility from Silicon Valley Bank. "We are pleased to secure this non-dilutive debt financing with favorable terms, providing us up to $150 million to further strengthen our balance sheet and provide financial flexibility as we execute on our commercial strategies and drive growth," said John T. Treace, CEO, Founder and Board Member of Treace. "We are committed to becoming the standard of care in bunion surgery and this financing provides us with a capital-efficient vehicle to continue to develop our market, invest in our business, and meaningfully gain share." The Company's new loan agreement includes a maturity date of five years for both the term loan and revolving credit facility. The Company drew $54 million at the closing and used a portion of the proceeds to refinance its existing $30 million debt facility. The annual interest rate is equal to Adjusted Term SOFR1 subject to a floor of 1% and a cap of 3%, plus (1) 6% under the term loan and (2) 4% under the revolving loan. The term loan provides for at least 48-months of interest-only at close, which can be extended to 60-months. With the completion of this refinancing, the Company now has cash and access to liquidity of approximately $220 million. Armentum Partners served as financial advisor to Treace on the transaction. Additional detail regarding the foregoing financing is set forth in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K, filed today with the SEC. Forward-Looking Statements This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

CHICAGO (AP) — Sabrina Ionescu had 22 points, seven rebounds and six assists, Natasha Howard also scored 22 points and the seventh-seeded New York Liberty beat the defending champion Chicago Sky 98-91 on Wednesday night in the opening game of the WNBA playoffs. New York scored the final 13 points of the fourth quarter as Chicago missed 10 of its last 11 shots. Ionescu made a 3-pointer and a jumper from the free-throw line during the run, and Marine Johannes highlighted the spurt with an over-the-shoulder pass to Howard. “We’ve been in this situation all year and early on we were losing these games,” Ionescu said. “But we found out what it takes to win and we showed that tonight. We gotta do it again.” New York, which won its first playoff game since Sept. 23, 2015, will play Game 2 of the best-of-three series at Chicago on Saturday. Betnijah Laney added 17 points and Stefanie Dolson scored 13 points for New York, which set a franchise scoring record in the playoffs. Dolson, a center, made 3 of 4 3-pointers to help the Liberty go 11 for 25 from distance. [ALSO READ: Liberty back in playoffs looking to topple defending champion Sky] Kahleah Copper led the second-seeded Sky with 21 points. Allie Quigley scored 18 points, Candace Parker had 17 points, 10 rebounds and five assists, and Courtney Vandersloot added 13 points and 10 assists. Chicago took its first lead of the second half, 74-73, with a second left in the third quarter on Emma Meesseman’s layup. Quigley sank a 3-pointer while being fouled and she made the free throw to give Chicago an 85-81 lead, and Parker added a putback on the Sky’s next possession for a six-point lead with 6:36 left.

New York is the city that never sleeps, and this Marine Johannes pass is sure to keep you awake as you keep replaying it over and over again. In Game 1 of the Liberty’s series against the Chicago Sky in the 2022 WNBA Playoffs, Johannes made an absurd no-look dime to teammate Natasha Howard for an easy finish: Howard slipped toward the paint after the side pick-and-roll screen and found herself untouched as no defender tagged her on the roll. Here’s another angle of the play: Liberty trailed 91-85 at the time of the play with 3:26 remaining in the fourth, but their two-way play was brilliant the rest of the game as the Sky failed to log a single point after. New York, the No. 7 seed, stole Game 1 in the 98-91 win against the No. 2-seeded Sky. Sports Patriots, Red Sox, Bruins, Celtics and more Johannes finished the game with eight points, seven assists and two rebounds, and that pass proved to be a game-changer down the stretch. Howard and Sabrina Ionescu led the Liberty with 22 points each. Sky’s Candace Parker posted a 17-point, 10-rebound double-double in 30 minutes in the loss. Game 2 of the best-of-three series is slated for Saturday at 12 p.m. ET. Let’s see if Johannes has more tricks up her sleeve as New York hopes to pull off an upset win to move on to the semifinals.

BEIRUT (AP) — The stabbing of author Salman Rushdie has laid bare divisions in Lebanon’s Shiite Muslim community, pitting a few denouncing the violence against fervent followers of the Iran-backed Shiite militant Hezbollah group who have praised the attack. One Rushdie defender received death threats. The attack struck close to home among Lebanon’s Shiites. The assailant, 24-year-old Hadi Matar, is a dual Lebanese-U.S. citizen, and his father lives in a village in Hezbollah-dominated southern Lebanon. Matar’s mother has said she believes her son’s visit to the village of Yaroun in 2018 turned him into a religious zealot. The religious edict, or fatwa, urging Muslims to kill Rushdie was issued in 1989 by Iran’s then-spiritual leader, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, who accused the author of blasphemy for his portrayal of the Prophet Muhammad in the novel “The Satanic Verses.” Iran, a close Hezbollah ally, has praised Friday’s attack but denied direct involvement. Hezbollah officials have been tight-lipped since the attack on the 75-year-old Rushdie as he was about to give a lecture in western New York. A Hezbollah official declined comment when contacted by The Associated Press. Rushdie suffered a damaged liver and severed nerves in an arm and in an eye, but was removed from a ventilator on Saturday and able to talk. Most Lebanese Shiites support Hezbollah and the more secular allied Amal movement of Parliament Speaker Nabih, which won all 27 seats allocated to the sect during this year’s parliamentary elections. Parliament and Cabinet seats are divided in Lebanon in accordance with religious affiliations. Still, there is a vocal minority of Hezbollah critics among Shiites. Several were attacked and one was shot dead last year. As the controversy swirled, an old video of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah resurfaced on social media. In it, Nasrallah said that “no one would have dared to attack Islam’s Prophet Muhammad again” if Rushdie had been killed immediately after the fatwa. Some Hezbollah critics have accused the group and its supporters of teaching their children to kill in the name of religion, Matar’s mother, Silvana Fardos, told the local Al-Jadeed TV late Tuesday that her son had lived all his life in the United States until he visited Lebanon for the first and last time in 2018. That trip changed him forever, she said. “After he returned from Lebanon he was a different human being … I knew that he had a long depression and I was expecting one day to wake up and find out that he had committed suicide,” Fardos said, alleging that her son was mistreated by his father. Asked if she asked herself whether she had raised a terrorist or an extremist, the mother said: “No. I raised an angel.” Journalists have been prevented from entering Yaroun, and Matar’s father has not spoken to the media. Despite Hezbollah’s official silence, the group’s supporters on social media are praising the attack. Some released threats against prominent journalist Dima Sadek after she posted on her Twitter account a photo of Khomeini and Gen. Qassim Soleimani, a top Iranian general killed in a U.S. strike in 2020, describing the two as “satanic verses.” Since then, death threats on social media and through messages on her cell phone haven’t stopped, with one man warning her, “I will rape you in public,” and another saying that “her blood should be shed.” She received a text message in which the sender told her where she lives. Sadek said despite the public threats, she has not been contacted by the authorities with offers for protection. “This is the first time I feel I am in danger,” Sadek, a harsh Hezbollah critic for years, told the AP. She alleged that the social media campaign against her is orchestrated by Nasrallah’s son, Jawad. She said she is restricting her movements for the first time. The Committee to Protect Journalists urged the Lebanese authorities to launch an investigation and protect Sadek. Shiite journalist Mohamad Barakat, managing editor of the Asas Media news website, also came under attack after he wrote that by stabbing Rushdie, Matar “stabbed Shiites who live in Europe and America.” In the other camp, Lebanese journalist Radwan Akil of the renowned local daily An-Nahar said in seemingly contradictory remarks that he condoned the fatwa against Rushdie, but not the killing of anyone, including writers. “I am of course with political freedoms and freedom of expression … but I’m not for criticizing the greatest man in history the Prophet Muhammad, and I also reject the criticism of Jesus Christ,” Akil said in a televised interview with Lebanese media. An-Nahar issued a statement, headlined “adopting a call to murder contradicts our policies.” It said that Akil’s views were his own. Two journalists who had worked for the paper and were outspoken critics of Hezbollah and the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad, another Iran ally, were killed in car bombings in 2005. The debate may eventually fizzle out because most Lebanese are preoccupied with the country’s economic meltdown and lack of services. “They have lots of other concerns,” said Hilal Khashan, political science professor at the American University of Beirut. Lebanese political leaders have not commented on the Rushdie attack. However, caretaker Culture Minister Mohammad Mortada denounced Rushdie’s depiction of the prophet . “Freedom of speech should be polite,” tweeted Mortada, a Shiite minister close to Hezbollah’s allies. “Insults or holding dark grudges has nothing to do with morals.” ___ Associated Press writer Kareem Chehayeb in Beirut contributed to this report.

LAGRANGE, Ga. (AP) — A man was arrested Wednesday in connection with three separate shootings that took place earlier in the day along Interstate 85 in Alabama and Georgia. One man was seriously wounded. Jerel Raphael Brown of Montgomery, Alabama, was arrested in LaFayette, Alabama, after shootings were reported in Montgomery and Auburn in Alabama and near Hogansville, Georgia, according to sheriff’s deputies in Troup County, Georgia. The Auburn Police Department said Brown has been charged with attempted murder and shooting into an unoccupied vehicle. He is being held without bond, the police department said. Officials had asked people to look for a 1996 white Cadillac Fleetwood after three shootings were reported. In the Auburn shooting, a 45-year-old Prattville, Alabama, man was seriously wounded by a gunshot that officials said appeared to enter from the rear of the man’s vehicle. The victim was taken by helicopter to a Montgomery hospital. A stretch of Interstate 85 in Auburn was closed for hours while police investigated. No one was injured in the Georgia shooting. No details on the Montgomery shooting were immediately released. Brown is charged in Georgia with aggravated assault, possessing a gun while committing a felony and first-degree criminal damage. Deputies in western Georgia’s Troup County said they identified the suspect vehicle using a traffic camera, allowing information about the car to be broadcast around the region. Authorities said that led to a Chambers County, Alabama, sheriff’s deputy pulling Brown over and arresting him. Brown was later handed over to Auburn police. Troup County Sheriff’s spokesperson Sgt. Stewart Smith said investigators can’t say at this time what motivated the shootings. He said that while Troup County has filed charges, he expected Brown would be jailed in Alabama and would be prosecuted first in that state.

Wild moment Anthony Albanese agrees to DJ on stage with legendary American rapper Fatman Scoop: 'Here's what we're going to do, PM' - The Prime Minister was being interviewed on radio in Brisbane on Thursday - Hosts brought Fatman Scoop, whose real name is Isaac Freeman, into the studio - US rapper asked Mr Albanese to DJ on stage with him in Brisbane in November Anthony Albanese has agreed to DJ on stage with Fatman Scoop after the US rapper ambushed him on morning radio. The Prime Minister was being interviewed on B105 in Brisbane when the hosts brought the Be Faithful hitmaker, whose real name is Isaac Freeman, into the studio. DJing is one of Mr Albanese's hobbies and he last took the stage in a Brisbane club on the election campaign trail. DJing is one of Mr Albanese's hobbies and he last took the stage (pictured) in a Brisbane club on the election campaign trail Freeman will be touring Australia with gigs in major cities in November. 'Listen, I know you DJ,' the rapper told the Prime Minister over the phone. 'Now, you have millions of constituents that want to see you. I need you to come down and here's we're going to do: you're going to DJ while I perform. Can you do that, sir?' Mr Albanese replied: 'Yeah, where are we going to do that?' before the radio hosts insisted their pair choose his Brisbane gig on November 11. Freeman added: 'All you got to do is put on a cool shirt, take a shower, bring your laptop. I'm gonna show you exactly what to do.' 'That sounds pretty good,' Mr Albanese said, before adding: 'I don't know what I'm doing on the 11th of November.' Freeman pressed him to commit, saying: 'Sir, whatever you got to do – talk to your people, and let your people talk to my people.' Referencing the government's jobs and skills summit in early September, Freeman joked: 'Show your skill, sir. Come down and be the DJ, that’s what I need from you.' Fatman Scoop will be touring Australia with gigs in major cities in November Mr Albanese agreed to exchange phone numbers so arrangements could be made. Also in the chat, the Prime Minister joked that he had seen several amusing memes relating to the Scott Morrison 'minister for everything' scandal. The former PM is under fire for secretly making himself minister for health, finance, resources, home affairs and the treasurer at the same time during the pandemic. This is not Fatman Scoop's first foray into Australian politics. The rapper hit headlines in 2018 when Mr Morrison posted a video of Question Time on social media edited to include his song Be Faithful in the background. 'I am humbled to have my voice rocking in the highest offices of the Australian Government,' Freeman wrote online at the time. But the video had to be taken down amid backlash over the explicit language.

We’ve got a running guide on everything hitting cinemas this year, but this will serve as your month ahead planner. You’re welcome. Every good movie out next month Even though it’s still August, it’s time to look ahead to September. Next month there are a few great flicks hitting cinemas in Australia, so here they are, starting with an animation we’re pretty keen on. DC League of Super Pets – September 15 It is a good time to be a superheroic animal. DC’s League of Super-Pets animated movie is on the way and has somehow nabbed Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as the voice of Krypto the Superdog, along with Kevin Hart as Ace the Bat-Hound, plus Keanu Reeves, Kate McKinnon, Diego Luna, among others. It looks adorable, check out the trailer for yourself. Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank – from September 15 Another animated movie hitting cinemas in September is Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank. A down-on-his-luck hound finds himself in a town full of cats who need a hero to defend them from a ruthless villain’s evil plot to wipe their village off the map. With help from a reluctant trainer, the underdog must assume the role of fearsome samurai and team up with the felines to save the day. The only problem is — they all hate dogs. Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank makes its theatrical debut on September 15 in Queensland and Victoria, and September 22 in all other states. Please don’t ask us why. Dark Harvest – September 22 Based on the book of the same name, Dark Harvest is set in a small U.S. Midwestern town, where a supernatural being, Sawtooth Jack, arises from the cornfields and approaches the town’s church, where violent gangs of teenage boys hungrily await their chance to confront the legendary nightmare in an annual harvest rite of life and death.

adfocus In and out of the online shopping cart Sales can come from almost anywhere online, research shows, and the cost of cart abandonment is high Online product research has increased and is influencing the physical retail sales of groceries, fashion, medicine and toiletries, and furniture and hardware of as much as R294bn. This has emerged from the “2022 SA Digital Customer Experience Report”, written by Charlie Stewart, CEO of the Rogerwilco agency, Amanda Reekie, founder of online research platform ovatoyou and Julia Ahlfeldt of Julia Ahlfeldt CX Consulting. The report is based on the responses of 2,000 South Africans. It says brands and businesses have made significant customer experience progress to keep up with the growing demand from savvy consumers. But it’s also customer experience that can kill a brand’s success in the market. Seventy percent of respondents have pulled out from a sale at the last minute. They are mostly frustrated by payment failure, high shipping fees, clunky sites and slow delivery. Given this, the authors estimate that this year the cost of cart abandonment could be as high as R26.621bn. The report says the pandemic has permanently influenced online shopping behaviour. It says social selling and the impact of online reviews also influence offline, or traditional, physical sales. Social selling is done directly via Instagram, Facebook Shops and WhatsApp. Ahlfeldt says: “Online is far more complex than we had realised; selling can come from almost anywhere online. Brands need to grasp that new channels of trade are on the rise, and that even if purchases don’t happen online, that’s where many customer journeys begin. Brands may be missing valuable opportunities by limiting the channels they trade through.” Take Facebook and Instagram, for instance: 48% of consumers buy through these platforms. Ahlfeldt says it’s not just small businesses that are leaning into alternative e-commerce avenues, but also global juggernauts like clothing retailer H&M. The report says brands may dismiss a Google review that potentially leads to an in-store purchase, but it is imperative they take note that any online activity — browsing, researching, comparing and looking at reviews — is done as a means to an end. Woolworths says more than 60% of its online browsers claim to buy in store, which has reinforced its focus on omnichannel retail. Stewart believes brands need to reconsider their entire approach. “It’s dangerous to disregard other channels and transactions … These are no longer niche behaviours. Our research suggests it’s time [for brands] to rethink and broaden their definition of e-commerce to keep up with consumer behaviour.” Our research suggests it’s time [for brands] to rethink and broaden their definition of e-commerce to keep up with consumer behaviourCharlie Stewart Another key finding is the emergence of consumer interaction with the metaverse — an embodied virtual reality experience. Close on 80% of those surveyed said they would engage with it in future. The study says getting delivery right has become the new commercial battlefield. Those that deliver the fastest and at the best price will win, as consumers are now insisting on next- or same-day deliveries. But, the report says, the financial reality is that while being first to drop and go is what the market wants, it comes at a high cost to a company. It says Checkers Sixty60’s margins are small, and one could argue that they don’t necessarily warrant the expense of a delivery. The report also asks if Amazon’s opening in SA early next year will prove to be too much for local rival Takealot. Ahlfeldt says: “Regardless of size or product, no brand owns the customer. It’s certainly a dog-eat-dog world, which is why local brands must up their ante to guarantee that they can confidently stand against, or alongside, international apps, and offer a seamless customer experience.” Would you like to comment on this article?

The Pan Africanist Congress of Azania is preparing for what its senior members are calling its “most contested” elective national congress. The congress will see party president Mzwanele Nyhontso challenged by his party deputy, Lunga Mantashe. The race between Nyhontso and Mantashe has been billed as an “ideological battle” between two camps within the party. The “Stability camp”, led by Nyhontso, wants to see continuity and growth, which speaks to changing the organisation into a modern post-democracy political party. The “Legacy camp”, led by Mantashe, is “seeking to retain the soul of the PAC” by realigning it to its original... The Pan Africanist Congress of Azania is preparing for what its senior members are calling its “most contested” elective national congress. The congress will see party president Mzwanele Nyhontso challenged by his party deputy, Lunga Mantashe. The race between Nyhontso and Mantashe has been billed as an “ideological battle” between two camps within the party. The “Stability camp”, led by Nyhontso, wants to see continuity and growth, which speaks to changing the organisation into a modern post-democracy political party. The “Legacy camp”, led by Mantashe, is “seeking to retain the soul of the PAC” by realigning it to its original Pan-Africanist principles, as espoused by its founder Robert Sobukwe. An insider confirmed to The Citizen the congress wasn’t only about a contestation for positions, but there were deep ideological issues at stake. The member said the Mantashe campaign believed that any attempt to assimilate the PAC into current popular politics would derail it from its calling. ALSO READ: Mzwanele Nyhontso declared PAC’s lawful leader “It’s a battle of two ideas – we need to ask what is it we should represent as the PAC? “Are we going to assimilate this organisation [allow assimilation] and let it lose its character, or restore it to its original values of Pan-Africanism as envisaged by its founding fathers?” the member said. The coming congress is anticipated to be a defining moment for the PAC, which has performed poorly at every election. Its parliamentary representation dropped from five MPs in 1994 to only one today. It was once the sixth-biggest party in parliament and its MPs included stalwarts such as then PAC president Clarence Makwetu, party chief whip Patricia de Lille, Ahmed Gora Ibrahim, Khaliphile Sizani and Malcom Dyani. At provincial level, its MPLs were Joe Mkhwanazi for KwaZulu-Natal, Benny Alexander (aka Khoisan X) for Gauteng and Zingisa Mkabile for Eastern Cape. Nyhontso is seeking a second term as PAC president but the youthful Mantashe is determined to drive him off course at the party’s national congress, which will be held at Ngoako Ramatlhodi Hall at Seshego in Limpopo from 26 to 28 August. However, despite the much-anticipated contestations for the presidency and all the top seven positions, the congress is expected to proceed without ructions. Its former president, Narius Moloto, appears to be too exhausted to put up another fight against Nyhontso. Moloto lost in court when he tried to challenge the validity of Nyhontso’s election at the last PAC congress. Besides, Moloto does not qualify to enter the race because he allegedly failed to renew his membership or pay subscription fees. Nyhontso, who is the PAC’s sole MP, is a party stalwart with many years in the party. One of his supporters, who spoke anonymously, said the odds favoured Nyhontso. But Mantashe is also not taking this one lying down, as he is backed by strong support from the student movement. He was previously the president of the Pan Africanist Student Movement of Azania (Pasma) prior to being elected PAC deputy president. He is also a #FeesMustFall activist with growing support in the labour movement and working classes. A source described Mantashe as brilliant. “If Lunga Mantashe is elected, I will be back,” he said. – ericn@citizen.co.za

(NewsNation) — Nearly three decades after her death, new music by legendary Latin-American pop star Selena Quintanilla-Perez, known to fans worldwide as Selena, will be released in an album later this month. The beloved Grammy-winning, multi-platinum Tejano artist, whose stardom has been compared to that of Elvis Presley and Madonna, was killed at the age of 23 in 1995 by the president of her fan club. Twenty-seven years later, her father, Abraham Quintanilla, announced in an interview with Jose Rosario of Latin Groove News that his family is collaborating with Warner Music to put out a record. The album will feature remixed tracks of some of Quintanilla-Perez’s hits, along with some previously unreleased songs that were originally recorded when she was a young teen. “The public still remembers Selena, you know. They haven’t let go of her,” Abraham Quintanilla said. “And so they are waiting for a project like this to come out.” Much like Selena’s musical career when she was alive, the new album is a family project, with her brother A.B. Quintanilla helping to produce the 13-song collection and her sister Suzette Quintanilla helping to design the album art. “I remixed all her vinyls,” said A.B. Quintanilla in an interview with Tino Cochino Radio. “With this album, with an EDM (electronic dance music) world, with arpeggiators and with keyboards, I made her flow to cumbia.” A remixed version of “Como Te Quiero Yo A Ti,” was released in late July as the first single for the album, called “Moonchild Mixes,” which is set to be released on Aug. 26. Selena was born on April 16, 1971, in Lake Jackson, south of Houston. She began singing with Los Dinos, the Quintanilla family band, when she was 9. Like Madonna, Selena was known for risqué stage costumes, including high boots and bustiers. But she also emphasized family values and was married to band member Chris Perez. Selena holds the Guinness World Record for the biggest-selling Latin album in the U.S., has been the subject of both a movie and a Netflix series about her life, has a museum with her merchandise, and even a MAC Cosmetics collaboration. The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Few took note when the senior Pasmanda leader Ali Anwar thundered in 2007: “Hum shuddar hain shuddar; Bharat ke mool niwasi hain. Baad mein musalman hain (We are Shudras first; the indigenous people of India. We are Muslims later).” Fifteen years later, and nearly a century after the launch of the first Pasmanda movement in India, the concept has finally dominated the public discourse with a potential to upset the Muslim politics. Having breakfast at a Lucknow hotel on a July morning, the bulky man in a green kurta asks for the ginger tea twice. The chief of the BJP’s Minority Morcha in UP, Kunwar Basit Ali faces a tough task—how to explain the party’s Pasmanda outreach to Muslims, when he himself barely grasps the term. “Har koi puch raha hai—are ye kya pasmanda le aaye? Sidhe sidhe kaho na kasai aur teli ki baat ho rahi hai (Everyone is asking—from where did you bring this Pasmanda? Why don’t you say that you are talking about communities like Kasai and Teli.).” The term Pasmanda, which means backward in Persian, has suddenly gained currency after Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently directed his party members to focus on weaker sections of Muslims. With the Pasmandas constituting some 80 percent of total Muslims in India, it is the next big electoral move the BJP has made. However, few Muslims know about the term. Be it Basit Ali, or the residents of Shaheed Nagar, an urban slum a few km from the chief minister’s house in Lucknow, staff at Lucknow famous monuments Bada Imambara and Chota Imambara, or a tailor in Delhi. “Pasmanda? I have never heard of it,” says Amir Khan, who after spending over two decades in Seelampur recently shifted to Gaffar Manzil near Jamia Nagar in Delhi. Amir, in late 40s, has been stitching clothes at various factories for three decades. Munawwar Ali, gatekeeper at Bada Imambara, nods his head in disbelief. “Muslims are only Shia or Sunni.” Raza Abbas, a well-informed staff at Chhota Imambara, narrates the monument’s history, a Persian clock and Belgian chandeliers hanging in the main hall that were gifted by merchants in previous centuries. But it’s an alien word even for him. Is the term fictional, or irrelevant then? No. Indian Muslims are classified under several hundred hierarchical communities or biradaris. Such are the hierarchies that some castes like Topchi and Bandukchi are unique to Muslims, without any Hindu equivalent. There are sharp divisions between upper caste Syeds and Sheikhs, and Dalit Muslims like Lalbegis and Doms. The hierarchy, sustained by practices like endogamy, defines the community’s social, economic and political life. The historical divide was redefined when Bihar-based journalist-turned-politician Ali Anwar formed All India Pasmanda Muslim Mahaz in 1998. Anwar, who wrote books including Masawat Ki Jung and Dalit Musalman, launched his organisation following the Pasmanda movement that had taken birth in Bihar in the 1930s. “I have not coined this word, I merely used it to denote all the various backward biradaris of Muslims,” Anwar told Outlook. Like the term Dalit, which is not a legally defined category, Pasmanda signifies a political assertion and identity. A divided society How did the labyrinthine biradaris pervade Indian Muslims who follow a religion that rests on egalitarianism? Pasmanda leader and retired IAS officer Anis Ansari goes deep into history. “Maulana Ziauddin Barni’s 14th century Arabic text Fatwa-i- Jahandari (Code of Governance) is similar to the Manu Smriti. It legitimises castes,” Anis Ansari tells Outlook, as he sips tea at his fabulous home in Lucknow, resplendent with antique chandeliers and furniture and tall plants, with a striking frame of the Kabba on the wall. “Barni wrote that there were three categories of Muslims since azal (beginning) --- Ashraf, Ajlaf, Arzal. The term Pasmanda came into circulation only recently, but this classification has existed among Indian Muslims for 700 years.” The three terms prevail among the Muslims, and also find a place in the Sachar Commitee and Rangnath Mishra Committee reports. The Ashrafs mean noble, and denote upper caste Muslims. The Ajlafs, who correspond with the Hindu OBCs, indicate lowly but ritually clean occupational communities and converts from low-caste Hindus. Arzals are converted from untouchable Hindus. However, the Arzals don’t get the reservation Hindu Dalits get because Muslims are not entitled to the SC reservation. The various categories of backward and Dalit Muslims are clubbed under the OBC category. While the Sachar committee estimates the Pasmandas or the total number of OBC, ST and SC Muslims to be 40 percent of the community’s population, a large number of Pasmanda and Ashraf leaders find the estimate inaccurate. “The Sachar committee’s estimate is absolutely false. The committee didn’t have any Pasmanda members. They ignored this aspect,” says Ali Anwar. In fact, in states like Tamil Nadu, over 90 per cent of total Muslims have been classified as backwards and get the OBC reservation. The consensus among the Muslims is that except Syeds, Sheikhs, Mughals and Pathans, almost all Muslim biradaris are Pasmandas. Anis Ansari’s son Khalid Ansari, an Associate Professor at Azim Premji University, explains these hierarchies by underlining that “caste should be seen as a secular principle of the political economy of the subcontinent.” “All religions have legitimised the caste structure in the subcontinent. There are Dalit Christians and Brahmin Christians. Similar is the case in Sikhs, Jat Sikhs are dominant and the Ravidasis are marginalised,” he says. Like other religions in the subcontinent, Islam adopted the Hindu system of stratification. And like the Hindus, several influential Muslims refute the hierarchies. “There’s no community like the Pasmanda. A lot of people deliberately misrepresent Pasmanda with caste. There’s undeniably biradarivaad within Muslim society in India, but any attempt to bring caste is completely mischievous,” says Congress leader Yusuf Ahmad Ansari. Such assertions disregard the sentiment Pasmanda Muslims have against the Ashrafs. WhatsApp groups of the Pasmandas are brimming with resentment against the Ashrafs. “Those who say that caste system doesn’t exist in Muslims, either they are unaware or lying. There are no marriages between Ajlaf and Ashraf,” says Anis ansari. Resentment Among the Pasmandas While the retired bureaucrat is discursive and guarded, All India Pasmanda Muslim Mahaz’s Chief General Secretary is blunt. He lives in a modest rented apartment in Lucknow. He and his wife Kahkasha have been fighting for the rights of the Pasmandas for several years. Such is the bitterness that Hawari claims that the “Shaheen Bagh movement was Ashraf’s own fight for their survival, for their prestige. Their fight is not for Islam. It’s for the authority of Sheikhs and Syeds.” It’s a humid afternoon in July. A little drizzle in the morning has left the city perspiring. Sitting next to him in black hijab, his wife Kahkasha turns furious narrating stories of discrimination they have faced. “The Ashraf women are considered sharif (dignified), our women are disregarded. They are well educated but when our women began studies, they were confined to religious education,” she says. She blames Maulanas for imparting “different instructions to the Ashraf and the Pasmanda women”. “The Ashrafs are taught to give zakat, whereas the Pasmandas are conditioned to remain poor and endure suffering to reach closer to Allah,” she adds. Zakat is an Islamic tax that is levied on people having a minimum property and is distributed to the needy and poor. The young political activist turns aggressive with every sentence. Commenting on the “indoctrination of Pasmanda woman” by the Maulanas, she says: “While Ashraf women wore quality jewels, Maulanas told us that if you don’t give zakat (which we couldn’t give), these bracelets will become snakes and bite you in jahannum (hell).” “They would continue to remain rich, but dissuade others from becoming rich. They tell poor people that the faces of gunahgaar (sinners) turn dark, whereas the glowing face of Maulana sahab’s reflects her character. They didn’t tell us that it was all about their rich diet and lifestyle,” she says. One can sense her face muscles twitching underneath the hijab. Hawari underlines yet another similarity with the Hindu system. “Pasmandas often fake their surnames because they are scared of the Asharfs. They don’t let us sit on the same cot.” Anis Ansari traces this practice in history when “Barni didn’t stop at the classification, but also stated that the Sultan must not allow Ajlaf and Arzal to enter the courts”. The lower caste Muslims had to invent ways to overcome the discrimination. But they soon found that it existed at every instance. “If we don’t have proper sheen, qaf (pronunciation), the Ashrafs laugh at us: Tumne ilm to le liya, lekin tahzeeb aane men naslen lagengi (You may have got some education, but it will take generations to become cultured),” Kahkasha says. These scathing words directly challenge leaders like Yusuf Ansari who refute any “rift between the Pasmandas and the Ashrafs”. “There are petty fights over farmland, property, water – you can conveniently give it the stamp of Pasmandas versus Ashraf. They all assemble together at the Eid namaz,” he says. One can here sense an ailment afflicting India’s biggest minority. Such is the social ignorance that even a politician like Basit Ali struggles to lend biradaris to all the 34 Muslim MLAs in Uttar Pradesh. Such is the cultural hierarchy that the Ashrafs take pride in asserting their Arab and Persian, even upper caste Hindu lineage. Basit Ali’s forefathers were Hindu Thakurs, but they continue to flaunt their ‘Kunwar’ title in order to assert their Rajput ancestry. And such is the economic discord that while the Pasmandas celebrate the UP Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act of 1951, a senior Ashraf politician says: “The Zamindari Abolition Act broke the back of Muslims. Lakhs of Muslims lost their titles. The tillers of the ground became the owners.” However, not all Ashraf communities are influential, and can be seen sharing space with the Pasmandas. Mohammad Ahmad died of kidney failure in February. His wife Johra Begum, 35, runs a small shop in her dingy room at the urban slum of Lucknow’s Shaheed Nagar. They are Sheikhs, but their average daily earning from the tiny shop is less than Rs 50. The tap water they get smells of sewage. Her equally poor old neighbours Mohammad Anwar and Saira are also Sheikhs, and are waiting for the amount to construct a home under the PM Awas Yojana. On the other side of the city, an impoverished Rafique, a Pathan, is selling peaches at Chhota Imambara on a sultry night. At Rs 20 per kg, most of the peaches look rotten. Another Pathan Amir Khan stitches jeans in a small and dark factory in Delhi slum. Is it, then, not about the Ashraf and the Pasmandas but the rich and the poor? Anis Ansari wouldn’t agree. “It’s not correct to say that Sheikhs and Pathans live in slums. They must be very few. A big majority in slums is of backward Muslims.” The rift is not political But it’s not political. The hate campaign doesn’t differentiate between the Ashrafs or the Pasmandas, Syeds or Gadheris. A Muslim is targeted by Bajrang Dal members not because of their biradari, but for their religion. Also, Muslims vote not according to their biradari but for the most winnable candidate—be it a Muslim or a Hindu. In the recent UP assembly elections, the SP had fielded Mukhiya Gurjar from Hasanpur seat of Amroha district. The Congress candidate Aasim Sabri, a Muslim, had a good number of community votes in the constituency. But Aasim got a paltry 1734 or less than one percent of total votes, as Muslim voted en masse for the Hindu Gurjar who got 97753 or 36.53 percent votes. At the South Meerut seat, Samajwadi Party’s candidate Adil Chaudhary, a Pasmanda, faced BSP’s Kunwar Dilshad, an Ashraf. This seat had a good number of Ashraf votes. But while Dilshad got 39857 votes, Chaudhary polled 121725 votes, more than thrice. Taking note of the social divide, the BJP is now trying to make it political.

This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate CHICAGO (AP) — Framber Valdez threw seven solid innings, Yordan Alvarez drove in a run and scored one, and the Houston Astros beat the White Sox 3-2 on Wednesday night, ending Chicago's five-game winning streak. The AL West-leading Astros hung on after blowing late leads in the first two games of the series. The White Sox trail AL Central-leading Cleveland by two games. Valdez (12-4) gave up two runs and seven hits, struck out six and walked three. The left-hander is 4-0 in six starts since losing to Oakland on July 9. Alvarez drove in Jose Altuve with a sacrifice fly in the first. He singled and scored on Trey Mancini’s sac fly in the fourth, and Chas McCormick added an RBI double in the inning against Michael Kopech (4-9) to put Houston on top 3-0. The White Sox scored two in the bottom half on a RBI double by Yoán Moncada and double-play grounder by Josh Harrison with the bases loaded. They had runners on first and second with one out in the eighth against Ryne Stanek. Moncada struck out and Yasmani Grandal fouled out to end the threat. Play was stopped for a few minutes in the eighth when a boy hopped the center-field wall. He pumped his fist as he was escorted off the field. Ryan Pressly pitched the ninth for his 24th save in 28 chances. Kopech was nowhere near as dominant after tossing six no-hit innings against Detroit last week. The right-hander went six innings in this one, allowing three runs and five hits. He struck out two after whiffing a career-high 11 in his previous start. TRAINER’S ROOM Astros: The Astros placed OF Aledmys Díaz (left groin discomfort) on the 10-day injured list. He was headed back to Houston, and manager Dusty Baker had no timeline on his return. “I'm just hoping we caught it before it became too serious because they can linger pretty badly,” he said. The Astros recalled INF JJ Matijevic from Triple-A Sugar Land. White Sox: CF Luis Robert (sprained left wrist) had an injection Tuesday, and manager Tony La Russa insisted a stint on the IL is not in the works. “There's no reason for him to go,” La Russa said. “It's just a question of when he can swing normally and not hold back. There's nothing damaged in there that we have to protect.” Robert was out of the lineup for the fifth straight game, though he ran for Eloy Jiménez in the eighth. ... The White Sox placed INF/OF Leury Garcia (strained lower back) on the 10-day IL and recalled INF Romy González from Triple-A Charlotte. La Russa said he's “very optimistic” Garcia will be ready to return when he's eligible. UP NEXT RHP Lucas Giolito (9-6, 4.92 ERA) tries to win his fourth straight start, while RHP Luis García (9-8, 4.03) gets the ball for Houston as the teams wrap up a four-game series. Giolito has a 3.71 ERA in his past three outings. Garcia beat Oakland last week after losing his previous three starts. ___ More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports

- First novel, nonstimulant option for adults with ADHD in 20 years - ADHD affects an estimated 10 million adults in the U.S. ROCKVILLE, Md., May 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. SUPN, a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing products for the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) diseases, announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved an expanded indication for Qelbree (viloxazine extended-release capsules) for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adult patients aged 18 and older. The FDA has now approved Qelbree for the treatment of ADHD in children (starting at age 6), adolescents and adults. Approximately 16 million children, adolescents, and adults have ADHD in the U.S. While many children with ADHD outgrow it, up to 90% of those diagnosed with ADHD in childhood continue to have ADHD as adults. "Until today, nonstimulant ADHD options for adults have been very limited," said Greg Mattingly, M.D., founding partner of St. Charles Psychiatric Associates in St. Louis, Mo. "This approval is positive news and offers a new novel option for the millions of American adults who are trying to find the right treatment to manage their ADHD symptoms." Qelbree is a novel nonstimulant taken once-daily for full-day exposure. Efficacy and symptom improvement was observed early in treatment. It has a proven safety and tolerability profile, with no evidence of abuse potential in clinical studies. The approval is based on positive results from a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled Phase III study of Qelbree in adults with ADHD and represents the first approval of a novel nonstimulant treatment for adults in 20 years. "As a leader in the field of CNS, we are fully committed to better understanding how to treat complex diseases such as ADHD," said Jack Khattar, President and CEO of Supernus Pharmaceuticals. "Today's approval marks a major advancement in the treatment of ADHD and is an important milestone just one year after the approval of Qelbree to treat pediatric patients. We are proud to bring a new novel nonstimulant option for adults into the market after two decades." At a daily flexible-dose between 200mg to 600mg, the Phase III trial met the primary endpoint showing the reduction in the change from baseline of the Adult ADHD Investigator Symptom Rating Scale (AISRS) total score at end of study was statistically significantly greater in adults treated with Qelbree versus placebo (p=0.0040). Significant improvement in AISRS subscale scores of inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity symptoms were also observed in the study. Moreover, the study met the key secondary efficacy endpoint with statistical significance (p=0.0023) in the change from baseline of the Clinical Global Impression – Severity of Illness (CGI-S) Scale at week 6. The active dose was well tolerated. Please see additional Important Safety Information included below. 1 Qelbree was studied in 4 clinical trials. In one study of children 6 to 11 years of age, ADHD symptom score reductions were statistically significant for 100 mg and 200 mg doses, beginning at week 1. In the study of adolescents 12 to 17 years of age, ADHD symptom score reductions were statistically significant for 400 mg, beginning at week 2. In the flexible-dose study of adults 18 to 65 years of age, ADHD symptom score reductions were statistically significant in the Qelbree patients, beginning at week 2. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Qelbree may increase suicidal thoughts and actions, in children and adults with ADHD, especially within the first few months of treatment or when the dose is changed. Tell your doctor if you have (or if there is a family history of) suicidal thoughts or actions before starting Qelbree. Monitor your moods, behaviors, thoughts, and feelings during treatment with Qelbree. Report any new or sudden changes in these symptoms right away. Qelbree should not be taken by patients that also take certain anti-depression medicines, especially those called a monoamine oxidase inhibitor or MAOI, or certain asthma medicines. Please see full Prescribing Information, including Boxed Warning, for Qelbree. About Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

News broke today that the Secret Service knew about threats to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi days before the Jan. 6 coup attempt, but they didn't tell her or the U.S. Capitol Police about those threats until the violence was already underway. This adds another wrinkle to the "accidental" scrubbing of Secret Service communications from before and during the coup. Meanwhile, in Florida, it still looks like Donald Trump willingly violated the Espionage Act and other federal laws—and whether Florida's most devoted Trump impersonator, current governor Ron DeSantis, broke laws in firing a state attorney who objected to new Republican demands to prosecute abortions in his state remains to be seen. In not-crime news, Daily Kos and Julia Louis-Dreyfus are partnering up to endorse seven Democrats running for vital state supreme court seats. Given the new Republican emphasis on declaring election results they don't like to be invalid because reasons, new Republican-state abortion bans, and new gerrymandering attempts to circumvent the will of state voters even when ballots are cast, these are among the most important races in the country.

Thursday is here, and with it a new Wordle. If you're a bit stuck, our daily Wordle help is here — and there's no shame in needing a nudge. The answer to the August 18 Wordle, puzzle #425, can be found at the end of this article. Before you get there, though, there are a couple of subtle clues to help you narrow it down, and as you scroll down, you'll see we've gathered a selection of the best tips and strategies from our previous reporting to help you every day. Where did Wordle come from? Former Reddit engineer Josh Wardle came up with the game in 2021 as a bit of fun for him and his word game-loving partner. It eventually became a staple of their family WhatsApp messaging, and that's when Wardle started to suspect he might have something special enough to merit a wider release. Thousands of people around the globe now play this game each day, and fans have even created alternatives to Wordle inspired by the original format. This includes music identification game Heardle, Hollywood nerd faves Actorle and Framed, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that make you guess multiple words at once. Not the day you're after? You'll find the Wordle answer for August 17 here. What's the best Wordle starting word? We have some ideas to help you pick the perfect first move. Such tips include choosing a word with at least two different vowels to rule those building blocks in or out, plus a few common consonants such as S, T, R, or N. Also, even if you're attached to your mathematically sound starter, once it's been the answer on any given day it won't be the answer again for a few years — so if you happen to get the elusive 1/6 result, celebrate by swapping out your starting five. What happened to the Wordle archive? While you could once play the entire archive of past puzzles, the archive was taken down at the request of the New York Times, according to the site's creator. Is Wordle getting harder? If you've been finding Wordle too easy, there is a Hard Mode you can enable to give yourself more of a challenge. But unless you activate this mode, we can assure you that Wordle isn't getting harder. Why are there two different Wordle answers some days? The whole point of Wordle is that everyone's solving the same puzzle, with the same answer, no matter where you are in the world. However, occasionally the puzzle game will accept two different correct solutions on the same day. This aberration is due to changes the New York Times began making after it acquired Wordle earlier this year, excising words form Wardle's original list that the team considers obscure or potentially offensive. To make sure you're always getting the same puzzle as everyone else, refresh your browser before you play — don't worry, the site will keep your streak. A subtle hint for the Wordle answer on August 17 You'll often find it in the South. Wordle today is a 5-letter word that starts with... ...the letter T! (Yes, the same as yesterday. And it might not be the only letter they have in common...) Does today's Wordle word have a double letter? It does not! Wordle today: What's the answer? Ready? It's time to reveal the solution. It's... TWANG. Reporting by Caitlin Welsh, Sam Haysom, Amanda Yeo and Adam Rosenberg contributed to this article.

Discovery prepares to combine HBO Max and Discovery+ into a single, unified streaming service, HBO Max is doing away with more than three dozen titles — including 20 original series. “As we work toward bringing our content catalogs together under one platform, we will be making changes to the content offering available on both HBO Max and discovery+,” the streamer said in a statement Wednesday. “That will include the removal of some content from both platforms.” Among the Max Originals set to leave HBO Max this week are the critically acclaimed, short-lived teen drama Genera+ion, adult animated comedy Close Enough and the children’s late-night program The Not-Too-Late Show With Elmo (along with an unspecified slate of Sesame Street specials).

The Soft Pink Truth – “The Anal Staircase” (Coil Cover) In October, Matmos’ Drew Daniel is releasing his latest album as the Soft Pink Truth, Is It Going To Get Any Deeper Than This?. But before that, he’s putting out a mini-album called Was It Ever Real? this Friday, which somewhat confusingly features the title track to his forthcoming album (which isn’t on Is It Going To Get Any Deeper Than This?). Less confusingly, it also includes a cover of Coil’s “The Anal Staircase,” which Daniel has been performing live for a while now. Today, the Soft Pink Truth is sharing the studio version of that cover, and Daniel had some stuff to say about the song and its accompanying video: I discovered Coil at age 16, buying their albums “Scatology” and “Horse Rotorvator” as a follow-up to loving Throbbing Gristle, but they were their own elegant proposition, and the idea of two gay men who are a couple and made music together looked to me like an ideal for living. Eventually, life took a turn and I wound up meeting them both in person and becoming, if not friends (I was too much of a fanboy to be relaxed enough around them for it to be a true friendship), then at least acquaintances. John would phone me up and we would talk, and we hung out in London and Barcelona when in the same orbit with each other. After John Balance’s death, I began to play a cover of “The Anal Staircase”, and had the chance to play it live in front of Sleazy before his own passing. We hugged and talked about John backstage, and Sleazy was moved by the cover and thanked me. In the wake of their deaths, the cover was something that I wanted to record properly and finally decided that the time was right only this year, after talking to Stephen Thrower about it (Thrower was the third member of Coil at the time the song was recorded, and is now a member of Cyclobe and Unica Zürn, and a friend of mine). For the video, I wanted to visually depict the feeling of an endless spiral that picks up the anal / intestinal / rectal but also architectural conceit of the original Coil artwork for the single, and asked Fletcher Pratt to animate something that would represent that formally, and to foreground the lyrics in a direct way. The bright white font is supposed to recall the kind of fonts used in pornographic “hypnosis” videos, in which large texts bombard the viewer with mind-altering commandments. The cover and the video are dedicated to John Balance, Peter “Sleazy” Christopherson, and Stephen Thrower.” Watch and listen below.

Western companies with iconic brands like Coca-Cola that exit Russia face years of battling knockoffs and unauthorised imports clamoring to fill the void they leave behind, a risky bid as courts show little sympathy for firms that depart. Companies pulled back from Russia this spring after Moscow sent thousands of troops into Ukraine, in response to investor and public pressure. Some, like Coca-Cola Co, finalised their exit in August after five months, while others such as McDonald's Corp sold their businesses. Some including Procter & Gamble Co partially remained, selling essentials. They are defending their trademarks to protect their brands from losing value, and in case they ever return to the country, intellectual property lawyers said. But they face a sea of opportunists, importers and flip-flopping court rulings. Coca-Cola, first available in the Soviet Union in 1979, is already ensnared in fights against grey-market goods, which are unauthorized imports, and Russian knockoffs of its fruit-infused Fanta line, according to court documents and interviews with attorneys involved. Other companies' battles are just beginning as Russian entrepreneurs aim to capitalize on their well-known names as they depart. Rospatent, the Russian government's intellectual property agency, is receiving an influx of applications for trademarks of Western brands popular in the country, said Robert Reading, head of content strategy in the intellectual property group at analytics firm Clarivate Plc, which tracks the filings. In usual times, governments reject applications for trademarks that are identical or very similar to existing brands, intellectual property experts said. But the Russian government this spring adopted a decree allowing businesses to use patents from countries deemed "unfriendly," such as the United States and United Kingdom, without paying the owner of the intellectual property, putting Western brands on the defensive. Russia also now permits “parallel imports,” or grey-market items, for products spanning from Carefree feminine products to any brand of footwear. The murky territory for major brands in Russia is like the “Wild West,” said Carey Kulp, a lawyer at Philadelphia intellectual property law firm Volpe Koenig PC. "The big issue in Russia is, will the court support Western brands?" Reading said. GIVE TO STATE Moscow entrepreneurs Alexander Gershtein and Vadim Ryabchenko, who own a bandage and medical materials manufacturing business, applied for around 20 trademarks including Coca-Cola, Adidas, Mercedes Benz and P&G's Pampers diaper brand. Gershtein said his firm may be able to make items such as diapers branded as Pampers and he may license others, if he wins approvals, he said. "If, for example, the state says it wants to produce...then we will give the state the Mercedes trademark," Gershtein said. "And there is nothing wrong with that." He said he has not yet heard from the companies asking he withdraw his applications. P&G and Adidas declined to comment. Mercedes Benz did not return requests for comments. COURTROOM CLOSED Coca-Cola has so far largely failed to have a Russian judge take its side in cases against grey-market sodas imported from the United States, and competitors with nearly identical names, such as "Fantola," which have flooded the market. Importer Pivoindustria LLC has been able to sell thousands of cans of Fanta peach and pineapple and Coca-Cola Cherry - even though the government has not added sodas to the list of goods eligible for parallel imports. Pivoindustria buys the sodas in US Costco and Walmart stores and is considering importing more, a company executive said. The most recent shipment arrived in Russia in April, said Maxim Sosov, a lawyer for Pivoindustria. Coca-Cola is seeking a judgment against Pivoindustria, after unsuccessfully trying to order customs to block the soda shipments, Sosov said. "(The judge) understands parallel imports are good because they are competition, cheaper price, and it is better for consumers," Sosov said, adding that they also help support Russian businesses. Coca-Cola has appealed the court's decisions and has said it "protects its goodwill and reputation where third parties seek to trade off the company’s renowned, worldwide" brand. Reuters could not attend a court hearing on one of the three cases Coca-Cola filed against Pivoindustria because the Atlanta-based company won the approval of a judge to block public access, a move that Sosov said was illegal. A lawyer for Coca-Cola said the information being considered in the hearing was "not publicly available" and she could not freely make her arguments for imposing a judgment on Pivoindustria. Coca-Cola declined to comment on the closed case. Coca-Cola in April also appealed the decision of a Russian court to approve beverage company Chernogolovka's "Fantola" brand prior to the conflict in Ukraine, according to court documents. "This should, in normal times, be an easy win for Coca-Cola," said Peter Maggs, a research professor at the University of Illinois College of Law and expert on Russian law. "At this point, Chernogolovka’s only possible argument is that Coca-Cola has abandoned its mark." An executive with Chernogolovka told Reuters, however, that "we have already won this lawsuit several times over...in several countries, not just Russia." "We continue to insist that what we are doing is not misleading for the consumer," its CEO Natalia Sakhnina said, insisting that Chernogolovka has never used anyone else's recipes, designs, names or fonts. "'Fan' is in both words...it is also in 'fantastic,'" Sakhnina said. Chernogolovka is aiming for a 50% share of Russia's near $9 billion soft drinks market now that Coca-Cola is reducing operations, Reuters has reported. The company started making Cola Chernogolovka in May. 'MOTHER'S BORSCH' Some entrepreneurs in Russia are trying to "Russify" Western brands, said Josh Gerben, founding partner of law firm Gerben Perrott PLLC. German confectioner Haribo, famous for its "gummi" bears, in June filed a notice of opposition with government authorities against an application to use the name "Russian Haribo" in Cyrillic letters, said spokesperson Jennifer Millns. An entrepreneur in May requested approval to use McDonald's golden arches and red sign, emblazoned with "Mother's Borsch" in Cyrillic, for cafes and bars, according to a filing found by the law firm. In June, another entrepreneur asked for permission to use the sports footwear brand New Balance in Cyrillic letters, according to another filing. McDonald's Golden Arches logo was visible and its flagship Big Mac hamburger was still for sale at some franchised locations months after the chain first closed in March. McDonald's and New Balance did not return requests for comment. McDonald's to sell Russia restaurants to local operator, rebrand Coca-Cola bottler to detail costs of exiting Russia.

Ekiti State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has berated Governor Kayode Fayemi over the state government’s alleged failure to pay the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) fees of the students who sat for the exam. The opposition party claimed the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) is withholding their results because of the development. But the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) debunked the claim, saying the release of the results is administrative. The PDP Publicity Secretary Raphael Adeyanju in a statement yesterday alleged that the failure of the governor to pay the fees a week after the results had been released by the examination body has thrown the parents and students into tension and psychological trauma. The Head of Nigeria Office of WAEC Patrick Areghan while announcing the results last week said 10 debtor-states, including Ekiti, should not expect the release of the results of the candidates they sponsored for the examination unless they demonstrate serious commitments. The PDP lamented that a state once noted for scholarship leading to it being christened Fountain of Knowledge had been turned into Fountain of Ignorance by the APC government.

Sunil Mittal hails govt for ease of doing biz in 5G allocation By IANS | Published: August 18, 2022 09:51 AM2022-08-18T09:51:04+5:302022-08-18T10:05:08+5:30 New Delhi, Aug 18 Sunil Bharti Mittal, Founder and Chairman of Bharti Enterprises, on Thursday hailed the Indian ... New Delhi, Aug 18 Sunil Bharti Mittal, Founder and Chairman of Bharti Enterprises, on Thursday hailed the Indian government's ease of doing business initiative, after the company received an allocation letter for the designated 5G frequency bands "within hours" of making payments. Bharti Airtel on Wednesday said it paid Rs 8,312.4 crore to the Department of Telecom (DoT) towards dues for spectrum acquired in the recently concluded 5G auctions. Airtel paid four years of 2022 5G spectrum dues upfront. "Airtel paid Rs 8,312.4 crore towards spectrum dues and was provided the allocation letter for the designated frequency bands within hours. E band allocation was given along with spectrum as promised," Sunil Mittal said in a statement. "No Fuss, No Follow Up, No running around the corridors and No tall claims. This is ease of doing business at work in its full glory," he added. Sunil Mittal said that in his over 30 years of first-hand experience with DOT, "this is a first! Business as it should be". "Leadership at work, right at the top and at the helm of telecom. What a Change! Change that can transform this nation - power its dreams to be a developed nation," he added. Over the last one year, Airtel has also cleared Rs 24,333.7 crore of its deferred spectrum liabilities much ahead of scheduled maturities. According to the company, the upfront payment, coupled with the moratorium on spectrum dues and AGR-related payments for four years, will free up future cash flows and allow Airtel to dedicate resources to single-mindedly concentrate on the 5G roll out. The Indian government sold 5G spectrum worth over Red 1.50 lakh crore, led by Reliance Jio, Airtel, Vodafone Idea and a unit of Adani Group.

WARNING: Sexual content A Northland mum wants sex education in the classroom reviewed after a "disturbing" school handout stole her 12-year-old daughter's innocence, she says. She and other parents are removing their children from Tauraroa Area School in the wake of the two-page document given to pupils aged 11 to 13. Principal Grant Burns apologised for the handout that was designed to answer anonymous student questions in a "factual, free of shame or embarrassment" way. Advertisement Advertise with NZME.The first sheet addressed curiosities about periods, toxic relationships, privates – or whether the teacher preferred chicken nuggets over dino nuggets, how to grow hair on "fake balls", and why are monkeys fat. Page two answered "how is sex done?" by explaining the five different legal classifications of sex – genital, digital, object, oral, and anal. "People should find a partner who is considerate to their needs and can communicate about their desires to achieve a respectful sexual relationship," part of the answer read. Burns said every question was assumed to be authentic so was answered factually without bias. "I sincerely apologise for this information being shared with our young people through our school," he said. "It is regrettable that the information went beyond the scope of the sexuality programme as outlined to parents. "We acknowledge that a balance must be struck between providing open, factual information and keeping information relevant to the ages of students involved." He said everyone involved had since become "acutely aware" of the harm sharing "inappropriate information" can cause. Advertisement Advertise with NZME.The Ministry of Education had not received any formal complaints about the incident. Regardless, Burns confirmed teachers would no longer respond to all questions posted in the anonymous question box format. But the mum of the 12-year-old daughter who came home with the "really weird" handout says there is no reversing the damage. "To me, it felt like such an invasion because they had taken her innocence in a sense... I think what makes me the angriest is I can't go back in time and take that from her head – it's done. "I feel dirty and yuck knowing it is being taught to such young minds. That's what's so disturbing to me," she said. The handout came shortly after the mum had paused her daughter's participation in sexuality education which only began at the start of this term. Advertisement Advertise with NZME.She had been carefully working through the curriculum to determine what was appropriate for her daughter so she didn't go "too far ahead" for her age. She said her daughter was taken out of Friday's lesson as a precaution but was still given a handout. And when her daughter arrived home, she showed her mum the papers. "I was fuming at the start," the mum said. "I had to say to her, sorry, I'm not angry at you – you've done nothing wrong. I'm just frustrated this has happened when I've asked for it not to happen." The mum spoke to a friend, whose child also received the handout in class but gave it back as she felt uncomfortable and didn't want to read it. "They're supposed to be children, they shouldn't have to be exposed to that at all," the mum said. Advertisement Advertise with NZME.She gate keeps inappropriate material by not yet allowing her daughter to have a cellphone or social media accounts and they watch Youtube together. "I try to guide her as much as possible," she said, adding she and her husband have fostered an environment where they can have very open conversations with their children. "We've always used normal words like penis and vagina because we want it to be a normal thing but to talk to 11 and 12-year-olds about sex toys. "That's what she keeps talking about. She's like what are those, what do they look like? Left to their own devices a child is probably going to start googling because you've just sparked this curiosity that wouldn't have otherwise been there," she said. The mum wants to see a full review of sexuality education for children under 16. "What is the main goal: sexualise children or help them navigate themselves or their identity?" she said. "Some of it is good – consent, absolutely – but other parts of it should be done on a much more basic term. I don't think there should be details on how to pleasure someone else." Advertisement Advertise with NZME.The mum would prefer a greater focus for younger children on learning about one's body. She said it was especially important to get it right because teachers – not psychologists – were the ones leading kids in terms of gender and sexuality. "If kids aren't able to discuss this stuff at home – because they can't or don't have a safe environment to have those conversations – then they're going to go to the teacher to discuss it." She questioned what right teachers have to initiate these discussions "if they are unable to go over the consequences of those talks." Burns said the Tauraroa Area School teacher who wrote Friday's handout was a "long-standing classroom practitioner" experienced in the subject. He told the Advocate she had recently completed a Family Planning course on teaching sexuality which had encouraged teachers to be open when answering student questions – however explicit. Advertisement Advertise with NZME."It also felt that by sharing the different definitions of sex raised awareness of what legally defines sexual relations, in case of rape, sexual abuse etcetera." Burns said the teacher believed she was acting in line with the advice given on the course by creating the handout - which was not provided by Family Planning. Family Planning communication manager Sue Reid provided the Advocate with A Guide For The Year 1 – 10 Resources which addresses answering student questions. It encourages teachers to be prepared to answer questions on a wide range of topics and says they are legally entitled to answer any question asked. The resource talks about how connecting with students over questions is "extremely worthwhile" as it may "encourage them to open up and seek support when needed". "If it is decided not to answer a question, provide a reason for this and do so positively so that students feel safe to continue asking questions," the document reads. Advertisement Advertise with NZME.Burns said continued training will be offered to the teacher - same as all staff given the constant changes occurring in the subject area. Keeping up with an 'ever-changing world' Tauraroa Area School principal Grant Burns says the world is changing with children reaching puberty sooner and easier access to pornography. "It is essential that educators stay relevant, to ensure that context is taught alongside what the students are finding out for themselves - often in an online environment." One challenge he identified was that students were accessing pornography easily. A 2018 study published by the Office of Film and Literature Classification found that one in four teens first saw explicit images and video, or graphic movies, before age 12. Of those, 71 per cent were not even looking for porn at the time. Patsy Henderson-Watt, director of the Miriam Centre counselling service, previously told the Advocate young people were learning about intimacy and relationships from their screens or alternatively through their experiences of sexual abuse. Advertisement Advertise with NZME.Burns said a stagnant curriculum wouldn't keep up with the ever-changing world "where the internet is a significant source of – sometimes inaccurate and or unhealthy information." In addition, he said schools were also trying to respond to the increasing number of students openly identifying as transgender or non-gender specific. Therefore, sex needed to be understood beyond the traditional heterosexual context. "As a school, we must be inclusive of all sexualities and orientations. Within this context, we must be sensitive to a wide range of cultural and family beliefs," Burns said. The Ministry of Education (MoE) helped schools respond to the evolving world by releasing updated guidance for Relationships and Sexuality Education in September 2020. Furthermore, a range of resources was introduced this year to help implement that guidance. Advertisement Advertise with NZME.But Isabel Evans, Ministry of Education Hautū (leader) Te Tai Raro (North), said schools knew their communities and were, therefore, best placed to make decisions about ways to incorporate relationship and sexuality education into their local curriculum. They could lean on curriculum leads, who provide in-school support to design learning across the curriculum to promote wellbeing. Evans said schools had to consult with their school communities at least every two years on the content and delivery of relationships and sexuality education. "This makes sure that this learning reflects the values and needs of a school's community."

Watch : Nikhat Zareen's emotional CWG video featuring mother blows the internet Following the footsteps of her idol Mary Kom, Nikhat Zareen has emerged as one of India's biggest star in women's boxing. After claiming a gold at the Strandja Memorial in Bulgaria earlier this year, Nikhat continued her powerful show and won the World Boxing Championships in Turkey in May.

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — Even though the summer is winding down, some boaters at Lake Poinsett don’t seem to mind, because they’re sailing into fall and encouraging others to follow their lead. 9-year-old Genevieve Perkins of Sioux Falls was at the helm of her own sailboat this past weekend. She was one of several sailors who participated in the annual Lake Poinsett Academy and Regatta. “I’ve been going out on a boat with my dad and uncle for a long time,” Genevieve said. Tom Henry, who spent 50 years in the men’s clothing business, says sailing suits him just fine. “And I got to know some of the sailors and they just encouraged me to give it a shot and I went out with them a couple of times and kind of got hooked on it,” Henry said. Henry says learning to sail was pretty easy, mainly because others showed him the ropes. “When everything is correct the red ribbons are all horizontal, it shows your boat and sail are trimmed properly,” Henry said. The annual Lake Poinsett Academy and Regatta was started by Joanie Holm’s late husband, Rick. “He was a lover of people and a lover of sailing and you put the two together and he was a happy person,” Holm said. Clark Perkins is a mental health counselor in Brookings. He says sailing is good for his mental health. “You can just go out and forget about all the troubles you have and you’re playing with the wind sometimes going really fast and sometimes tipping over,” Clark said. During the annual regatta, they have to navigate their sailboats on a course marked by buoys, easier said than done. “It’s the thrill of knowing how to work the wind, you can go anywhere, you have to do a lot of zig-zagging back n forth, it’s fun to learn how the wind blows and how you can guide yourself through it,” Clark said. Genevieve did more than just get through it, she won. “It feels pretty good,” Genevieve said. “I like going fast and I like being out on the water in general with my family.” But out here everyone seems like family. Joanie Holm says her late husband would be proud knowing that the Lake Poinsett Academy and Regatta, that he started years ago, is still sailing along smoothly. “He would love it, he would love it,” Holm said. If you’re interested in learning how to sail, contact the Lake Poinsett Academy and Regatta. They’d be glad to show you the ropes.

Billionaire Ratcliffe interested in buying Manchester United British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe is interested in buying Manchester United, a source familiar with the matter told Reuters after Elon Musk said his plan to buy the Premier League club was all part of "a long-running joke". Musk, the world's richest person, said on Tuesday night on Twitter that he wanted to buy England's most successful club before clarifying that it was a joke and that he had no interest in purchasing any sports teams. The club's owners, the American Glazer family, are under pressure with United sitting bottom of the Premier League after two games of the season. Bloomberg reported they would consider selling a minority stake, opening the door for Ratcliffe. A source close to Ratcliffe said the billionaire was a potential buyer as he wants to help rebuild the team. The Times first reported Ratcliffe's interest on Wednesday. It is unclear if the interest would result in any deals. The Glazer family is not ready to concede the controlling stake in Manchester United and has an expectation of valuing the club at more than double its current market cap of $2.2 billion, another source said. In May 2022, Chelsea Football Club was sold to a consortium led by an investment group led by Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital for $3.2 billion (2.5 billion pounds). The Glazers have been the target of intense criticism for their failure to invest in the team who have not won a trophy in five years. United's net debt had grown 11% to about 496 million pounds ($598 million) by the end of March. The owners have also been criticised for not improving the Old Trafford stadium, the biggest club ground in the country with a capacity of around 75,000 fans. Ratcliffe, head of chemical company INEOS, is from the Manchester area and a long-standing United fan. Ratcliffe failed this year in an attempt to buy London club Chelsea which was ultimately bought by an investment group led by Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital. United finished sixth last season in their worst Premier League campaign with respect to points earned, failing to qualify for the lucrative European Champions League. They won the last of their record 20 top-flight league titles in 2013, the year Alex Ferguson stepped down as manager after more than 26 years in charge. The club hired manager Erik ten Hag from Ajax Amsterdam in a bid to turn around their fortunes but the Dutchman has not yet succeeded in imposing his playing style, with United losing their opening two games after conceding six goals. United play their arch-rivals Liverpool, who scored nine times without reply in their two league meetings last season, at Old Trafford on Monday. Shares of Manchester United jumped 6.96% on Wednesday.

'Nowhere to hide' if war comes to Taiwan's front-line islands On Taiwan's windswept Matsu islands, close to China's coast, one topic has been driving conversations in recent days: prospects of an invasion by China since it began military exercises in response to visits to Taiwan by US lawmakers. Held by Taiwan since the defeated Republic of China government fled to Taipei in 1949 after losing a Chinese civil war, the archipelago of small islands, less than 10 km (6.2 miles) from China's coast at the closest point, would probably be an early target for Beijing in the event of conflict. China, which claims Taiwan as its territory, has carried out extensive military exercises this month after a visit by US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who was followed by five US lawmakers on Sunday and Monday. Taiwanese forces have closely monitored China's moves, scrambling fighter jets and deploying warships to keep guard against the Chinese navy. While there has been no heightened sense of alarm among the people of Taiwan, the tension has highlighted the Matsu islands' vulnerability. "I don't feel particularly safe - after all this island, Dongyin, would be the front line of the battlefield," said Dora Liu, 27, from Dongyin island, the northernmost territory Taiwan controls and home to a major military base. "A small island like ours could be taken down in a moment," she said. "If there is a war, there would be no place to hide. No matter how many tunnels we have, if they really occupied us, there would be no use in having tunnels." The rocky Matsu islands, like the rest of Taiwan, have lived with the threat of Chinese invasion since 1949. The islands were regularly bombarded by China at the height of the Cold War. Today, they are a fashionable tourist destination, with hip coffee shops and boutique hotels, visitors being drawn by the islets' stark natural beauty and wartime past. HOPE FOR COMMUNICATION Though the military presence is much more low-key than it was at its height in the 1950s and 1960s, signs of conflict are all around, from old bomb shelters to propaganda signs hewn out of the rock with messages like "save our mainland compatriots". Chien Chun-te, 40, who runs a breakfast stall outside a market on the main island of Nangan, said the new crisis was more worrying than previous tension. "I think a war is possible," Chien said. "But I hope people in the two countries, and also both the governments, can communicate more. Having no communication would only lead to hatred." Despite the recent tension, the islands are brimming with tourists from Taiwan's cities, an important plank for the local economy, and flights are hard to book. Huang Tzu-chuan, 30, who works in communications in Taiwan's Taoyuan city, opted to spend a month this summer working at a guesthouse in a village on Nangan overlooking a scenic bay. Like most Taiwanese, Huang has followed the Chinese military drills closely and considered what his response would be in the event of war. "If one day it really happens, I will of course fight for my country," said Huang. He drew a parallel between Taiwan's challenges and the war in Ukraine after Russia invaded. "We feel our relationship between Taiwan and China is just the same as theirs."

JAMSHEDPUR: The smooth transition from offline to online mode of education in Covid times, hard work of the students and external experts’ guidance paved the way for the students of Narbheram Hansraj English School (NHES), Bistupur, crack JEE Main with flying colours. A batch of 19 talented students, including five girls, cracked JEE Main with 90 percentile, the results of which were declared on August 9. “Timely completion of the school syllabus in the Covid period, and hard work put in by our students ensured the success,” said NHES principal Paramita Roychaudhury. With effective implementation of the guidelines to ensure none of the students miss out the online class, the school achieved cent per cent completion of the syllabus during both the years — 2020-21 and 2021-22 — she said. Also, a brief visit of external experts of physics, chemistry, biology, besides maths proved quite beneficial.

- The company is releasing two new terminals, the NYC1 and the AMS1, after expanding into designing hardware for the first time - The terminals are affordable and flexible solutions that simplify accepting in-person payments for enterprise and platform businesses AMSTERDAM, Aug. 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Adyen (AMS: ADYEN), the global financial technology platform of choice for leading businesses, is pleased to announce the launch of its first in-house designed terminals. Innovated to facilitate diverse payment use cases, the terminal range marks the latest step forward in Adyen's growing unified commerce offering. Running on the company's single platform, the new devices remain inherently flexible, in order to address a rapidly advancing payment landscape and ever-evolving customer needs. "Adyen's commitment is to help businesses realize their ambitions faster, and creating our own terminals is the latest way we're delivering on this promise," said Kamran Zaki, COO at Adyen. "We always innovate based on customer feedback to deliver superior experiences with speed and flexibility. With our in-person payments offering, businesses have a full suite of terminals to choose from, enabling them to pick the best one to meet their specific needs." Adyen remains focused on driving innovation in unified commerce, ranging from enterprises to SMBs via platforms. The devices realize customer wishes to be mobile, discrete, reliable, affordable, with long-lasting battery, and accepting payments spanning a tap, dip, or swipe. The company thoughtfully considered the model's design details, ensuring the sound, look and feel all speak to Adyen's standard of excellence across payment experiences. The devices run on Adyen's single platform, which enables end-to-end control, tailored payment flows, and high speed of innovation at the point-of-sale. "By taking ownership of the terminal design, Adyen is assuring we put customer needs at the heart of their functionality," said Derk Busser, VP of Product, In-Person Payments at Adyen. "Our goal is to continuously reduce friction within the consumer journey. By designing highly mobile devices, we're empowering businesses to collect payments not only when behind a checkout counter - but anywhere. The breadth of use cases this mobility provides signifies an exciting development in advanced, in-person purchases." The first terminal in the suite is the NYC1, the most affordable and flexible device within the in-person payment range. The device enables businesses to offer a fully customized payment flow in their own point of sale app. It's ideal for businesses that have already invested in hardware like phones or tablets and want to add payments to their set-up. A key use case is platforms who want to offer a simple and affordable payment device to their small business customers. There is also strong usability among enterprises who see mobility as a way to deliver more seamless in-person experiences - from mitigating long lines at checkout to freeing up sales associates to provide more personalized service. The NYC1 terminal is available now in North America, with coverage extending to other regions soon. The second is the AMS1, an all-in-one terminal with an Android operating system that businesses can use to accept payments as well as run their own business applications. By consolidating applications, store employees can perform tasks such as accessing their cash register, managing inventory, and accepting payments all on a single device. It simplifies day-to-day operations while also providing the same benefits as the NYC1. The AMS1 is ideal for enterprise and platform businesses that want to be able to access all operational apps via one device. The terminal will be globally available later this year, starting with Europe and North America. With the NYC1 and AMS1 terminal range now in Adyen's in-person payments repertoire, the company looks forward to identifying forward-thinking ways to advance consumer journeys.

--Expands pipeline focus on rare benign hematological disorders-- --Licensing agreement marks first business development transaction since IPO-- Rallybio Corporation RLYB, a clinical-stage biotechnology company committed to identifying and accelerating the development of life-transforming therapies for patients with severe and rare diseases, today announced that it has obtained worldwide exclusive rights to Sanofi's KY1066, which will be referred to as RLYB331 going forward, a preclinical potentially first-in-class antibody. RLYB331 has the potential to address a significant unmet need for patients with severe anemia with ineffective erythropoiesis and iron overload, such as beta thalassemia (BT) and a subset of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), amongst others. The transaction expands Rallybio's pipeline, is strategically consistent with Rallybio's existing focus on hematology, and aligns with its mission to accelerate the development of life-transforming therapies for patients with severe and rare disorders. "With our strong focus on portfolio expansion, the in-licensing of RLYB331, our first as a public company, marks a pivotal moment for Rallybio. We believe RLYB331 is differentiated from all programs in clinical development based on its mechanism of action, with the potential to be first-in-class. We expect that RLYB331 may address a significant unmet need by correcting ineffective erythropoiesis, improving hemoglobin, reducing red blood cell transfusions and reducing iron overload in multiple hematological disorders such as beta thalassemia and myelodysplastic syndromes," said Martin Mackay, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Rallybio. "This product candidate is a natural fit with our R&D expertise and our focus on hematological disorders. Along with our existing pipeline it provides an additional opportunity to leverage our deep expertise in rare diseases and to identify and accelerate the development of transformative therapies for patients with severe and rare diseases. We look forward to integrating RLYB331 into our portfolio and ultimately deliver this therapy to transform the treatment of patients with severe benign hematological disorders." RLYB331 is a monoclonal antibody that inhibits Matriptase-2 (MTP-2). The inhibition of MTP-2 significantly increases levels of hepcidin, decreases iron load and treats ineffective erythropoiesis. The standard of care for many such hematological disorders leaves a significant unmet need in iron overload associated anemias with patients experiencing significant morbidity and consequent mortality. Rallybio plans to prosecute preclinical activities for RLYB331 including CMC, and dose-range finding and toxicity studies, which will then support transition of the asset into clinical development. Under the terms of the license agreement, Rallybio will make an upfront cash payment of $3 million to Sanofi, in addition to development and commercial milestones, and mid to high single digit royalties on net sales. About Rallybio Rallybio is a clinical-stage biotechnology company committed to identifying and accelerating the development of life-transforming therapies for patients with severe and rare diseases. Since its launch in January 2018, Rallybio has built a portfolio of promising product candidates, which are now in development to address rare diseases in the areas of hematology, immuno-inflammation, maternal fetal health, and metabolic disorders. The Company's mission is being advanced by a team of highly experienced biopharma industry leaders with extensive research, development, and rare disease expertise. Rallybio is headquartered in New Haven, Connecticut, with an additional facility at the University of Connecticut's Technology Incubation Program in Farmington, Connecticut.

PATNA: Newly-appointed education minister of Bihar, Chandrashekher Yadav, said on Wednesday that he might adopt the education model implemented in government schools in the national capital by Arvind Kejriwal in Bihar. Speaking to IANS, the RJD MLA said that there is no harm in adopting such a model if the quality of education improves in the schools of Bihar. Here are excerpts from the interview: Will you adopt the Kejriwal model of education in Bihar? The annual budget for education is around Rs 50,000 crore in Bihar, but the quality of education is not that good. I learnt about the Kejriwal model of education in Delhi. Many people from across the world have visited the government schools in Delhi. There is no harm in adopting such a model if it helps improve the quality of education Bihar. We will visit the schools in Delhi and if we find the methods of education there are really as good as people say, we will certainly adopt it." What will be your commitment to social justice? We are advocating social justice and we are committed to it. We do not care about the communal forces. Let them spread the thoughts of Golwalkar if they want, we will only proceed with the ideology of Ambedkar." What's your view on same work, same pay for teachers? Enhancing the quality of education is our priority at the moment. If the teachers generate the required output, we will not hesitate to change the policy. The present education system in schools is a concern for us. What's your view on sessions getting late in the universities? Late sessions are a cause of concern for us in the universities. We have asked them to conduct examinations quickly. However, we have also received complaints that holding exams one after the other puts burden on the students. Still, we are working on it.

- First quarter revenue of $49.6 million, net of $5.0 million reserve - International project pipeline reaches new record levels at 32+ Gigawatts - Awarded first projects in Kenya, South Africa and Malaysia - Added $112 million to executed contracts and awarded orders since March 15 - Planned acquisition of HX Tracker remains on track to close in second quarter AUSTIN, Texas, May 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FTC Solar, Inc. FTCI, a fast-growing global provider of solar tracker systems, software and engineering services, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022. "Our results for the quarter were generally in-line with our expectations, net of the effects of a credit reserve," said Sean Hunkler, FTC Solar President and Chief Executive Officer. "As we look at the current market environment, conditions are increasingly uncertain in the wake of the AD/CVD investigation announcement in the U.S. While customers increasingly value our solutions and service and want us to be ready to execute on projects quickly, the investigation has added to existing WRO and module pricing concerns to compound customers' difficulties in procuring solar modules. This, in turn, is causing project decisions and schedules to continue to get pushed out in time. "Despite the near-term uncertainty, solar demand over the long-term remains quite strong. In fact, our pipeline1 has reached a new record high level, driven by more than 20% growth year-to-date outside the U.S. The record high excludes our pending acquisition of HX Tracker, an emerging China-based supplier of 1P tracker systems, which we believe will further accelerate FTC Solar's international expansion with a complementary tracker solution optimized for low labor cost markets. The acquisition remains on track for a second-quarter close. "In addition to pipeline growth, we've also made nice progress bringing our executed contracts and awarded orders to $664 million, with $112 million added in the past two months. Almost half of the recent additions were international, showing our strong organic growth outside the U.S. This includes our first awards in three new countries: Kenya, South Africa, and Malaysia. "With a differentiated product, strong customer adoption, significant cost reduction initiatives and operational improvements, I believe FTC Solar is controlling what it can control and positioning itself incredibly well for the future, and to once again outperform once the module supply factors have been resolved." Summary Financial Performance: Q1 2022 compared to Q1 2021 Total first quarter revenue was $49.6 million, including a reserve associated with a potential customer credit that resulted in a $5.0 million reduction to first quarter revenue and gross margin. Net of this reserve, revenue was just shy of our target range. This revenue level represents a decrease of 51% compared to the prior quarter on lower volume and a lower ASP, and a decrease of 25% year-over-year, driven by the inclusion of the reserve and lower volume. GAAP gross loss was $9.3 million, or 18.7% of revenue, compared to $8.6 million, or 8.4% of revenue in the prior quarter. Non-GAAP gross loss was $8.8 million or 17.8% of revenue. The reduction in dollars quarter over quarter was due to the credit reserve. The result for this quarter compares to a gross profit of $0.1 million in the prior-year period, with the difference driven primarily by the reserve and reduced production volume vs. the prior year and an increase in employee count and other overhead expenses to support the company's growth trajectory. GAAP operating expenses were $18.5 million. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding stock-based compensation and certain other expenses, operating expenses were $11.2 million, compared to $6.9 million in the year-ago quarter. The year-over-year increase was driven primarily by necessary growth in staffing and other public company requirements. GAAP net loss was $27.8 million or $0.28 per share, compared to a loss of $23.9 million or $0.25 per share in the prior quarter, and compared to a net loss of $7.4 million or $0.11 per share in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA loss, which excludes $7.8 million of stock-based compensation expense, certain consulting and legal fees, severance and other non-cash items, was $20.0 million. Net of the reserve, this was just above the mid-point of our guidance range. This result compares to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $16.4 million in the prior quarter and $6.7 million in the year-ago quarter. Contracted and awarded orders2 as of May 9 were $664 million with expected delivery dates in 2022 and beyond. This includes the addition of $112 million since the company's last update on March 15, 2022. Second Quarter and Full Year 2022 Outlook In our business update in January and our last earnings release in March, we noted that the company's 2022 outlook assumed an improvement in regulatory pressures on module availability, primarily relating to WRO. We undertook to continue to monitor these impacts, including impact on our outlook. Having not seen the improvements we had hoped for, and actually seeing increased impacts and uncertainties in the U.S. solar market with the introduction of the AD/CVD investigation, we are withdrawing our prior annual guidance for full year 2022, and instead moving back to providing quarterly guidance and some qualitative discussion beyond that. Our revenue outlook for the second quarter of 2022 reflects delays by solar developers as they work to secure modules for their projects. Our gross margin reflects this lower revenue base to absorb overhead costs and a lower mix of new, higher-margin projects. Given the significant advances with our DTV initiatives, new projects we're awarded carry significantly higher product margins. Unfortunately, as these projects have pushed out, that leaves primarily legacy projects in the second quarter. These factors flow down to Adjusted EBITDA, offset to a degree by expense reduction initiatives we are implementing as we await a resolution to the AD/CVD and WRO industry impacts. Remainder of 2022 As we look to the remainder of the year, while regulatory factors remain the largest wildcard, the legacy, lower margin projects will largely roll off in Q3, and then we should see significant improvement. As volume normalizes and continues to grow, it will have an even greater positive impact on our financials. We also expect to see incremental benefit from our expense reduction initiatives. Based on these factors and what we see today, we believe that: - Revenue for the second half of the year will grow vs. the first half; - Gross margin will improve sequentially in the second half; and - Non-GAAP operating expenses will decline in the second half relative to the first3 All outlook figures and commentary exclude the pending acquisition of HX Tracker. In addition, should there be favorable resolution to module supply issues, including AD/CVD and WRO, in the near-term, we believe we will be well positioned to quickly respond to pent-up customer demand, benefit from the continued strong growth in solar and resume our strong growth trajectory. First quarter 2022 Earnings Conference Call FTC Solar's senior management will host a conference call for members of the investment community at 8:30 a.m. E.T. today, during which the company will discuss its first quarter results, its outlook and other business items. This call will be webcast and can be accessed within the Investor Relations section of FTC Solar's website at investor.ftcsolar.com. A replay of the conference call will also be available on the website for 30 days following the webcast. 1. The term ‘pipeline' refers to the total amount of uncontracted projects in the solar energy market to which the company has visibility as a potential sale opportunity for its trackers. The size of our pipeline does not guarantee future sales results or revenues, which will depend on our ability to convert pipeline opportunities to binding sales orders. 2. We define executed contracts and awarded orders as orders that have been documented and signed through a contract, where we are in the process of documenting a contract but for which a contract has not yet been signed, or that have been awarded in writing or verbally with a mutual understanding that the order will be contracted in the future. In the case of certain projects, including those that are scheduled for delivery on later dates, we have not locked in binding pricing with customers and we instead use estimated average selling price to calculate the revenue included in our executed contracts and awarded orders for such projects. Actual revenue for these projects could differ once contracts with binding pricing are executed, and there is also a risk that a contract may never be executed for an awarded but uncontracted project, thus reducing anticipated revenues. Please refer to our SEC filings, including our Form 10-K, for more information on our contracted and awarded orders, including risk factors. 3. Assumes no near-term resolution to the module supply/AD/CVD constraints. About FTC Solar Inc.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. — The quickest way to the quarterback for a defensive end is usually the most direct route, and that may be why Chiefs rookie George Karlaftis is so adept at bulldozing his way through an unsuspecting offensive tackle and into the backfield. Then again, perhaps it's because the route Karlaftis took to reaching the NFL was anything but direct. The first-round pick out of Purdue grew up in Athens — not the one in Georgia, home to the Bulldogs, but the one in Greece, home to the Parthenon. His father, Matt, was an accomplished track and field athlete who had ventured to the U.S. to attend college, and while doing doctoral work at Purdue had met his eventual wife, Amy. The two settled back in Athens, where Matt Karlaftis embarked on a career in academia, and where the family eventually grew to include four children. But the lives of all of them changed in June 2014, when their patriarch died of a sudden heart attack while on a work trip at the age of 44. Within a matter of days, Amy decided to move with her kids back to Indiana, where she settled in West Lafayette to be closer to family and her support network. It was there that George Karlaftis, who had excelled at water polo and a myriad other sports in Greece, fell in love with the American version of football. He was in the eighth grade and, for a young man learning a new language, adapting to a new culture and trying to make new friends, the game gave him an opportunity to discover himself. Now, a mere eight years later, the 21-year-old Karlaftis has reached the pinnacle of the sport. "Looking back on it," he said, "it's pretty crazy to think about. I feel like, more generally speaking, I've always excelled in sports to a certain extent. Football sort of came natural to me after I had a full year under my belt. I surely fell in love with it. Just looking back on it, I had a crazy, crazy ride. And just like the French say, 'C'est la vie,' right? That's life." It has certainly been an interesting one. And in many ways, it's only beginning. The Chiefs were better than just three teams in the NFL last season when it came to bringing down the quarterback, and they were unable to make a noteworthy splash in free agency until they signed veteran Carlos Dunlap midway into training camp. So instead, they spent one of their two first-round draft picks in an attempt to upgrade at defensive end. Karlaftis was the fifth one off the board after a standout career at Purdue, but he fit perfectly with Kansas City. "With a late start to football, he picked it up quick," Chiefs general manager Brett Veach said, "and one thing in common in everyone that you talk to about George is approach to the game and how important it is to him." That's been evident through the first month of training camp. Karlaftis is often one of the first players on the field and one of the last to leave it, and not just because he's probably signed more autographs for fans than just about anyone. Along the way, Karlaftis began spending time with veteran Frank Clark, who regularly puts in extra work after practice. "George is dope. He's a dope rookie," Clark said with a smile. "He listens, you know? And honestly, I love him. He's a favorite for me early, one of my favorite rookies ever. He wants to be good. He understands it's a different game. There's a different twist in the NFL. You have to be understanding that. "The other day," Clark recalled, "he asked about getting off the ball — I fly off the ball — and he's asking, 'What are you looking at?' And I explained to him different keys. Then at the end of practice, I'm zoned out, looking at the sky, just had five plays in a row, and he came running over to me and he's like, 'Bro!' Scared me. He's like, 'Bro! I did it! I did what you told me to do!' I was like, 'Oh, cool. Good stuff.' But just the fact that he came over so excited was cool." Not always does such practice success translate on game day, but Karlaftis couldn't have had a better preseason debut than last Saturday in Chicago. He had two quarterback hits along with a tackle-for-loss and a sack. "Everyone is helping in their own way," said Karlaftis, who gets his first opportunity inside Arrowhead Stadium when the Chiefs play Washington in their second exhibition game Saturday. "We're trying to have the strongest group possible. But it's just little things about the game, little veteran intricacies, that are being passed down to me." The depth chart is fluid in Kansas City, where defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo is known for rotating so many players that it hardly matters anyway. But at least for now, Karlaftis is taking the shortest route he can to the top — just like he does when he's trying to chase down a quarterback in the backfield. "He's a great kid," Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce said. "A lot of love for the rook. He came in and knew the playbook, he's a true student of the game. He has a lot of heart and effort. I love playing with him. He brings the young dog out of me." ___ More AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/NFL and https://twitter.com/AP_NFL

To be fair to all, Luzerne County’s Redevelopment Authority is again seeking proposals from financial entities interested in handling a new loan estimated to yield $51 million for county-owned roads and bridges. An authority board majority had previously selected Fidelity Bank from five financial entities that responded to a request-for-proposals. Fidelity Bank partnered with FNCB on the planned transaction. Since then, a county council majority agreed to guarantee the loan in the unlikely event that repayment funding from casino gambling falls through. Because the initial documents seeking financial entities stated there would be no county guarantee, many argued the redevelopment authority should perform a new search. Some entities may have opted against submitting a proposal due to the lack of a guarantee, they said. All four authority board members present Tuesday voted to withdraw the selection of Fidelity Bank and seek new proposals: Nina DeCosmo, Scott Linde, Stephen E. Phillips and Mark Rabo. The fifth board member, John Pekarovsky, was absent Tuesday. Authority Executive Director Andrew Reilly said the new request-for-proposals should be posted within two weeks at luzernecountyredevelopment.org. A council majority voted last month to guarantee the loan because the authority agreed all proceeds will be used to address county-owned infrastructure. Replacement of the Nanticoke/West Nanticoke Bridge over the Susquehanna River, currently estimated at $45 million, is stated as a project to be funded, although county officials will have flexibility if they deem other projects a higher priority, officials said. Council must pass an ordinance to formalize the guarantee. The loan is possible because new state legislation customized solely for the county redirects $3 million annually for 25 years from the casino-gambling Local Share Account (LSA) to create an infrastructure fund. The way it is set up, the redevelopment authority must borrow to create the fund and then repay the debt using the annual $3 million LSA earmark. County council got involved because financial institutions wanted assurance the county would repay the debt if the Mohegan Sun Pocono casino in Plains Township closed down the road. The legislation leaves it up to the redevelopment authority to recommend projects that should be funded, with final award approval by the Commonwealth Finance Authority — a state entity that already approves other LSA awards that are not part of this special program.

While unionised workers can go on strike, if you’re on your own, you may need to consider how you can boost your pay Google is releasing its major new update, Android 13. The release comes slightly earlier than usual: last year’s Android 12 came in October, with Android 11 arriving in September 2020. But Android 13 is arriving on Pixel devices now, bringing with it a host of new changes. The most obvious changes are aesthetic, with a new look that allows third-party devices to match the phone’s design and a new look and feel for some apps such as the music and podcast app. Many of the other features bring Android in line with the Apple ecosystem. Different devices will now work better together, for instance, with support for sharing messages or copy and pasting between phones and laptops. It also adds new privacy controls, so that apps should only be able to see the information users choose to share with them. Apps can no longer see a person’s full camera roll, for instance, and will try to make it so that developers are not able to pull personal information from the clipboard. The update is being released now the Pixel 4, 5 and 6. It will arrive as an over the air update – and should be available straight away, though that might depend on what phone network or carrier you are on. The update will roll out “later this year” to other devices from “Samsung Galaxy, Asus, HMD (Nokia phones), iQOO, Motorola, OnePlus, Oppo, Realme, Sharp, Sony, Tecno, vivo, Xiaomi and more”, Google said. Neither Google or those manufacturers gave any more specific information on when it might arrive.

"We hope that the waiver of Russian securities transfer fees will send a clear and unambiguous signal to unblock clients' assets," said NSD, which was added to the EU list of sanctions entities in June. Russian investors lost access to some of securities stored in foreign depositories due to Western sanctions that followed the beginning of what Russia calls "a special military operation" in Ukraine. Signal, the secure messaging app, has been hit by a hack that leaked its users phone numbers.

Most people hear the buzz of bees and start looking for a place to hide. Others, like Terri Taylor, hear that sound and start saying words of thanks. Taylor started keeping bees at her property about five years ago. She’s up to five hives now and plans to add two more early next year. She bought her first beehive from a teacher in Dallas. Now, she sources her bees through a local vendor, Donny Johns in Springtown. Johns sells nucs (short for nucleus colony) in the spring. “Beekeeping is an investment, and a nuc costs at least $200,” Taylor said. Taylor became interested in beekeeping after taking a permaculture class. She signed up for a beekeeping class shortly after. “It was really something the first time I stood there in a suit, and they opened up a hive and thousands of bees came out,” she said. “You know, that really makes an impression on you.” Taylor said that she highly recommends anyone interested in beekeeping take a hands-on class because that will “either make you a believer or let you know that this really isn’t for me.” Taylor and her husband Lynn have been working to bring their homestead closer to its native roots. To do that, their landscaping has become more friendly for native plants and animals, including bees. Bees are considered a nuisance at family outings or days at the park. But the reality is that bees play a vital role in food production — and not just for honey. “Do you know how many times a bee has to go to a flower to get a watermelon or a cucumber?” Taylor asked. “It’s like 500 times.” Pollen is required for flowers to produce fruit. Although there are several vegetables that can self-pollinate — tomatoes, green peppers, chili peppers — there are many that rely on bees and other pollinators to do the work for them. But even self-pollinating plants can be more productive with the help of outside assistance. If you’ve ever had your vegetable garden in full bloom but produce almost no fruit, it’s likely because they weren’t being well pollinated. Bees and other pollinators usually help with that. Unfortunately, bee populations have been struggling all over, making food production more of a challenge. In China, workers have to hand-pollinate pear trees — flower by flower — because bees are almost non-existent due to pesticides. Here in Texas, drought is another factor that is negatively impacting the local bee population. “Drought means no plants, and no plants means no flowers,” said Molly Keck, board-certified entomologist and senior program specialist with Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service. Flowers provide both the carbs (nectar) and the protein (pollen) that bees need to produce eggs and feed babies. “We have many species of native bees (in Texas),” Keck said. “They go by a number of different common names and there are several species of each within those common names. Bumble bees, digger bees, plaster bees, mason bees, carpenter bees and leafcutter bees are the more common and noticeable ones. We also have honeybees, which are not a native species.” Keck said that native bees are responsible for pollinating many of the plants and veggies in our landscapes. “Honeybees are more responsible for pollinating large monocultures like agricultural systems or fields of wildflowers in the spring,” she said. “We will still see them on plants in our landscape, but we should give a huge amount of credit to our native bees.” What can residents do to help support the bee population? “Plant flowering plants with overlapping blooms,” said Keck. “Plant things that bloom spring through fall. Colors in yellow, white, blue and purples are most attractive to bees.” Keck also said that people should reduce pesticide use, especially when bees are on plants. “If the plant is flowering, ask yourself if it really needs intervention with pesticides,” she said. Finally, Keck recommends finding ways to provide native habitats, such as muddy areas, stumps, hedge rows, sandy spots and debris for them to dig under. “These may provide nesting or resting sites for unwanted insects as well, but you need to decide what is more important to you,” she said.

CHILDREN and teenagers who have had Covid are at increased risk of developing seizures or psychotic illnesses up to two years after recovering from the infection. Scientists who compared long-term outcomes between adults and children in the US who had had Covid compared to another respiratory illness found that Covid was associated with a higher excess incidence of psychiatric and neurological disorders. The findings, published today in the journal Lancet Psychiatry, also found that while Omicron causes milder Covid disease compared to the previously dominant Delta variant, both showed similar levels of risk for developing psychiatric and neurological problems. In adults aged 18 to 64, rates of diagnosis for 'brain fog' were 16% higher two years on compared to adults who had had other respiratory infections up to two years previously. The rate was 640 cases per 10,000 people who had had Covid, compared to 550 cases per 10,000 for other respiratory infections. READ MORE: Are Covid lockdowns to blame for strange outbreaks of flu, polio and hepatitis? In adults aged over 65, dementia diagnoses were 36% higher in recovered Covid patients compared to the control group (450 versus 330 cases per 10,000), while children under 18 who had had Covid were twice as likely to have been diagnosed with seizures two years on (260 versus 130 cases per 10,000) and three times more likely to have developed some form of psychotic disorder (18 vs six cases per 10,000) compared to children who had had another respiratory illness. The authors caution that the study only tracked excess risk - it does not attempt to offer any explanation for how or why Covid is associated with these increased incidence rates. Professor Paul Harrison, a psychiatrist and lead author of the study at Oxford University, said the numbers involved were "not trivial, but they're not huge" and "shouldn't really lead to panic". However, he added that they could increase pressure on already overburdened NHS services. READ MORE: Polio boosters for children amid fears over spread of virus in London Prof Harrison said: "[The numbers] need to be set against the increasing burden of mental and brain health problems that may have occurred across the whole population because of the pandemic. "But yes, certainly for some conditions there appears to be a non-trivial and persistent greater risk of these diagnoses being made [after Covid]. "And for some of these diagnoses it's highly likely that those people are going to need medical attention. "For example, if you take psychotic disorders as the exemplar, as a rule those disorders do need a not inconsiderable and sometimes sustained intervention and I think, if there's going to be an increase in the number of cases for say child and adolescent mental health services - which are already under considerable strain in this country - this can only add to that burden. "It would be hard not to argue very strongly that increased resources are going to be needed, not only just now, but for the foreseeable future."

With the population of Cork city set to increase by 50,000 in the next six years, the new Cork City Development Plan has been launched by Lord Mayor of Cork, Cllr. Deirdre Forde. An "exciting phase of growth and change," the plan lays out what the next six years of city life will look like - with the focus on sustainability, quality of life, social inclusion, and climate resilience. After thousands of submissions, including over 1,000 from Cork city kids and teenagers, the 'Our City, Our Future' development plan comes into effect this month. Not only is the city predicted to see 50,000 more residents added to a 210,000-strong population, but 30,000 new jobs are set to be created on Leeside by 2028. It is the first of three City Development Plans that look to achieving a 50% to 60% increase in population by 2040. The 2028 Map shows 10 "strategic regeneration and expansion areas" to see new employment zones, bus corridors, walking and cycling networks, the Lee-to-Sea greenway and a long-term delivery of Light-Rail Transit. These areas include Ballyvolane East, Ballyvolane West, Blackpool/Kilbarry, Blarney West, Castletreasure, South Ballincollig and South Glanmire. Eleven locations have been designated as "Neighbourhood Development Sites" with the aim to make these areas walkable within the city. The network of walkable neighbourhoods is based on 10-minute walking areas that provide a mix of homes, schools, shops, parks, jobs and community spaces. Cork City Council are working towards a "15-Minute City" in response to the global climate emergency. The idea is that everything a person needs from education to work, healthy food, leisure facilities and lifetime support should be available within a 15-minute walk or cycle from their front door. Plans include the integration of a range of house types, jobs, recreation, green space, local shops, medical centres, small businesses and more. Areas have been zoned out, with plans for each area ranging from new residential neighbourhoods and public open space to technology and business infrastructure. Lord Mayor of Cork, Cllr Deirdre Forde said the Development Plan is "truly the people’s plan, reflecting their vision for the city of the future, "This plan sets out how we can achieve the ambitions of the people of Cork, providing homes and jobs, making it a greener, more sustainable and more vibrant place to live in, "It is centred around supporting housing, job creation, public realm renewal, transport, more amenity spaces and community services in existing built-up areas, using the internationally recognised 15-minute city model”. Cork City Council Chief Executive, Ann Doherty said the plan has been future-proofed to provide sustainable development of the city "into the next six years and beyond.” She said: “Cork City is changing and growing, this is evident when you walk the streets of our city. How that change and growth are managed and received will seek to enhance quality of life for all those who live and work in Cork, "The plan does not stand alone but sits within a suite of Strategic Plans like the National Planning Framework, Project Ireland 2040, along with the significant capital expenditure set out in the National Development Plan, which recognises Cork’s status as an emerging international city of scale and a national driver of economic growth.” Cork City Council has launched its official LinkedIn page for news and current vacancies.

Three years after resigning from his position as CEO of WeWork over claims of mismanagement, Adam Neumann, is now in control of Flow, which is a billion dollar real estate firm. The entire Silicon Valley has been shaken by news. If reports are to be believed, a hefty amount of $350 million has been invested in the startup by Andreessen Horowitz. It is a renowned venture capital firm. As of now, Flow’s website holds the slogan saying ‘Live life in flow.’ It will launch in 2023. According to BBC, the investment has sparked massive outrage. Allison Byers who is the founder and chief executive of Scroobious, while speaking to BBC said, “There is a reason why this is making such waves…. Because of the size of the cheque, because of the unprecedented funding of somebody who has been popularised as an immoral business person, it creates a more emotional reaction." There were many more who have expressed their anger. Taking to social media, she wrote, “For anyone else, we’re held to these impossible standards. That’s the outrage." Another investor, Leslie Feinzaig, who also happens to be the founder and managing director of the venture capital firm Graham & Walker, said that the reported scale of the investment which has not yet gone public seemed like a “gut punch." She said, “My immediate reaction was, ‘Man, I wish women had the same opportunity to fail up as spectacularly as Adam Neumann has." There have also been doubts within the world of real estate. John Drachman, co-founder of reputable real estate company Waterford Property Co has claimed that there is still a great deal of scepticism in the sector regarding Mr. Neumann’s most recent plans to shake up the market. He further said that Adam can “clearly convey a story and a vision, making him a fantastic salesperson. He was really effective in raising a significant amount of money for WeWork."

Serena Williams’ farewell tour on Tuesday suffered another bump in the road with a 6-4, 6-0 opening round loss to Emma Raducanu at the Western & Southern Open, one of the last tune-up events before the final Grand Slam of the American great’s career. Williams has just one professional tournament remaining before the US Open, where she would have one last chance to tie Margaret Court’s record of 24 Grand Slam titles. After a sluggish start in the WTA 1000 event in Cincinnati, Ohio, Williams gave the sold-out crowd something to cheer about in the first set when she crushed back-to-back aces to cut reigning US Open champion Raducanu’s lead to 4-3. Photo: Susan Mullane-USA TODAY The British 19-year-old fired back an ace of her own to snag the first set and followed that up with a break of serve to open the second. Raducanu rolled on from there, smacking an unreturnable serve on match point to end their first career meeting, setting up a clash against two-time former major winner Victoria Azarenka. Williams waved to the crowd before walking off court and did not speak to the media later. “I think we all just need to honor Serena and her amazing career,” Raducanu said on court. “I’m so grateful for the experience of getting to play her and for our careers to have crossed over. Everything she has achieved is so inspirational and it was a true honor to get to share the court with her,” she said. Williams, who turns 41 next month, was world No. 1 and had already won four major titles when Raducanu was born in November 2002. She won her last major in 2017, while pregnant with her daughter, Olympia, who was in attendance. Earlier in the day, former world No. 1 Naomi Osaka was swept aside 6-4, 7-5 by China’s Zhang Shuai. It was Osaka’s third tournament back from an Achilles’ tendon injury and it has been a stuttering return to action for the twice US Open champion, who also exited in the opening round in Toronto last week, retiring with lower back pain. Osaka got her serve working, firing down 10 aces, but not much else, with the four-time Grand Slam winner piling up 29 unforced errors and converting just one of four break chances. Zhang next meets Russian Ekaterina Alexandrova, who beat Leylah Fernandez, the losing finalist at last year’s US Open, on Monday. In women’s doubles, Taiwan’s Chan Hao-ching and Japanese partner Shuko Aoyama exited in the first round, after losing 6-3, 6-3 to Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur and Belarus’ Victoria Azarenka. Additional reporting by staff writer An 82-year-old man on Saturday set off from Kaohsiung’s Sizihwan Bay (西子灣) to circumnavigate Taiwan in a sailboat in 29 days. Chinese Taipei Sailing Association vice president Chan Cheng-feng said the trip had been a dream of his for the past 40 years. Chan, who also heads the Kaohsiung Municipal Athletics Federation’s sailing committee, has been working to promote the sport in Taiwan since leaving the Marine Corps in 1976. The biggest challenge has been ensuring that people learn how to deal with problems at sea and know how to avoid danger, Chan said. The octogenarian said it is exciting to “still be having As David Popovici has accelerated past his older rivals in the pool this summer, it seemed inevitable that the skinny 17-year-old would threaten world records. The only surprise when he broke the 100m freestyle mark in Rome on Saturday was that he got so quick so fast. On Friday, the Romanian had become only the fourth man in history to swim under 47 seconds as he set a European record to win his semi-final at the European Aquatics Championships in Rome. That was more than half a second faster than his gold-medal time at the FINA World Championships in June. On Saturday, Brazilian outsider Beatriz Haddad Maia on Thursday toppled Iga Swiatek 6-4, 3-6, 7-5 to reach the quarter-finals of the WTA Toronto Masters. The South American, ranked 24th in the world, beat her third top-10 opponent this season, but notched her first career win over a world No. 1 as she clawed out the victory in three hours. Haddad Maia, who won titles at Nottingham and Birmingham in June, became the first Brazilian to reach the quarters at a WTA 1000 tournament. She was the first from her country to face a No. 1 since Telian Pereira lost to Serena Williams at Roland Jorge Mateo had a career-high five hits on Friday, one of them off Taiwan’s Yu Chang on the mound as a position player, while Adley Rutschman and Cedric Mullins each homered off the Tropicana Field catwalk as the Baltimore Orioles beat the Tampa Bay Rays 10-3. Rougned Odor had four of the Orioles’ season-most 19 hits as Baltimore won for the eighth time in 10 games and moved into an American League wild-card spot, a half-game ahead of the Rays. “Definitely one of our better offensive nights, the way we kept up those innings with the two-strike, two-out innings,” manager Brandon Hyde

The U.S. government will hold talks with Taiwan on a wide-ranging trade treaty in a sign of support for the self-ruled island democracy China claims as its own territory. The announcement Thursday comes after Beijing held military drills that included firing missiles into the sea to intimidate Taiwan following this month’s visit by U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the highest-level member of the U.S. government to visit Taiwan in 25 years. Meanwhile, Taiwan's military held a drill Thursday with missiles and cannon simulating a response to a Chinese missile attack. President Joe Biden’s coordinator for the Indo-Pacific region, Kurt Campbell, said last week trade talks would “deepen our ties with Taiwan” but stressed policy wasn’t changing. The United States has no diplomatic relations with Taiwan, its ninth-largest trading partner, but maintains extensive informal ties. The U.S. Trade Representative’s announcement made no mention of tension with Beijing but said “formal negotiations” would develop trade and regulatory ties, a step that would entail closer official interaction. Taiwan and China split in 1949 after a civil war and have no official relations but are bound by billions of dollars of trade and investment. The island never has been part of the People’s Republic of China, but the ruling Communist Party says it is obliged to unite with the mainland, by force if necessary. Being allowed to export more to the United States might help Taiwan blunt China’s efforts to use its status as the island’s biggest trading partner as political leverage. The mainland blocked imports of Taiwanese citrus and other food in retaliation for Pelosi’s Aug. 2 visit. U.S. & World Chinese President Xi Jinping’s government had no immediate reaction to the announcement. U.S.-Chinese relations are at their lowest level in decades amid disputes over trade, security, technology and Beijing’s treatment of Muslim minorities and Hong Kong. The USTR said negotiations would be conducted under the auspices of Washington’s unofficial embassy, the American Institute in Taiwan. Xi’s government says official contact with Taiwan such as Pelosi’s one-day visit might embolden the island to try to make its decades-old de facto independence permanent, a step Beijing says would lead to war. Washington says it takes no position on the status of China and Taiwan but wants their dispute settled peacefully. The U.S. government is obligated by federal law to see that the island has the means to defend itself. “We will continue to take calm and resolute steps to uphold peace and stability in the face of Beijing’s ongoing efforts to undermine it, and to support Taiwan,” Campbell said during a conference call last Friday. China takes more than twice as much of Taiwan’s exports as the United States, its No. 2 foreign market. Taiwan’s government says its companies have invested almost $200 billion in the mainland. Beijing says a 2020 census found some 158,000 Taiwanese entrepreneurs, professionals and others live on the mainland. China’s ban on imports of citrus, fish and hundreds of other Taiwanese food products hurt rural areas seen as supporters of President Tsai Ing-wen, but those goods account for less than 0.5% of Taiwan’s exports to the mainland. Beijing did nothing that might affect the flow of processor chips from Taiwan that are needed by Chinese factories that assemble the world’s smartphones and consumer electronics. The island is the world’s biggest chip supplier. A second group of U.S. lawmakers led by Sen. Ed Markey, a Democrat from Massachusetts, arrived on Taiwan on Sunday and met with Tsai. Beijing announced a second round of military drills after their arrival. Taiwan, with 23.6 million people, has launched its own military drills in response. On Thursday, drills at Hualien Air Base on the east coast simulated a response to a Chinese missile attack. Military personnel practiced with Taiwanese-made Sky Bow 3 anti-aircraft missiles and 35mm anti-aircraft cannon but didn’t fire them. “We didn’t panic” when China launched military drills, said air force Maj. Chen Teh-huan. “Our usual training is to be on call 24 hours a day to prepare for missile launches,” Chen said. “We were ready.” The U.S.-Taiwanese talks also will cover agriculture, labor, the environment, digital technology, the status of state-owned enterprises and “non-market policies,” the USTR said. Washington and Beijing are locked in a 3-year-old tariff war over many of the same issues. They include China’s support for government companies that dominate many of its industries and complaints Beijing steals foreign technology and limits access to an array of fields in violation of its market-opening commitments. Then-President Donald Trump raised tariffs on Chinese goods in 2019 in response to complaints its technology development tactics violate its free-trade commitments and threaten U.S. industrial leadership. Biden has left most of those tariff hikes in place.

ASAP Rocky pleads not guilty as Relli celebrates charges. The Harlem rapper appeared in court on Wednesday in Los Angeles to answer to two counts of assault using a semiautomatic firearm against his former high school friend. A$AP Rocky, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, got news of the charges on Monday after the alleged shooting victim in the November 2021 incident revealed himself. Rocky, who appeared with his attorney, pleaded not guilty to the counts after the judge read them to him. He is accused of luring his friend Relli to a location in Hollywood where they had a disagreement that led to Rocky allegedly firing multiple shots at Relli. Relli filed a civil suit for damages from A$AP Rocky, claiming that he suffered an injury to one of his hands due to a bullet grazing him. The incident shocked many as the alleged victim’s identity was previously unknown to the public. The suit is seeking damages for assault, battery, negligence, and intentional infliction of emotional distress against Rocky. On Wednesday, Rocky stood in court with lawyer Sara L. Caplan who entered a not guilty plea for Rocky. The artist did not say anything except when the judge addressed him to confirm his agreement with the date set for his second court appearance. The judge granted a protective order requested by prosecutors that prevented Rocky from having any firearms or ammunition. The Harlem rapper is also prohibited from contacting or coming within 100 yards of Relli. “We request that the protective order be mutual, your honour because my client does not pose a danger,” Caplan said in the rapper’s defense. The presiding judge Victoria Wilson said that Relli was not on trial, so there was no need for a protective order against him. “As the case now stands, there is a case against Mr. Mayers. If one is subsequently filed against Mr Ephron, we could deal with that then,” Judge Wilson said. Relli had previously said that he was receiving death threats from Rocky after identifying himself as the victim the “Trilla” rapper allegedly shot. In the meantime, the judge did not consider Rocky a flight risk, and his bond was set at $550,000. The rapper is allowed to travel and perform, but his travel dates must be cleared by the court. A$AP Rocky is facing up to 9 years in jail if convicted of the offenses. In the meantime, Rocky has not filed a defense to the civil suit by Relli. The lawsuit claims that Rocky came armed to hurt Relli when he agreed to meet up with the rapper. “During this altercation and while in close physical proximity to the plaintiff, the defendant pulled out a handgun and purposefully pointed it in the direction of the plaintiff and fired multiple shots,” the lawsuit said. “Unbeknownst to Mr Ephron, A$AP Rocky was not just planning for a conversation and came armed with a semiautomatic handgun,” the attorney said. “After arriving at the location, a conversation ensued whereby without provocation, warning, or any justification, A$AP Rocky produced the handgun and intentionally fired multiple shots at Mr Ephron.”

Fab Five: Carver five-star edge rusher Qua Russaw is 'locked in' entering senior season G.W. Carver's defense was in trouble. On third down, Valley quarterback Cam'Ron Dooley scrambled and broke contain. Cutting upfield, Dooley looked like he had a first down within reach, but Jaquavious Russaw thought differently. Rushing from one side of the field to the other, Russaw raced in to drag Dooley to the grass short of the sticks. It was only Marcus Gardner's second game as the Wolverines' coach, but at that point, Gardner knew for certain the 6-foot-2, 230-pound junior was something special. "The explosiveness and closing speed is just different," Gardner said. Russaw, known simply as "Qua" or "Ru" to those around him, is ranked No. 2 in the Montgomery Advertiser Fab Five, a collection of the top college football prospects in the Montgomery area. FAB FIVE NO. 3: How lessons from mother helped Jeremiah Cobb become 2,000-yard rusher and Auburn commit FAB FIVE NO. 4: Why four-star Kentucky defensive back commit Avery Stuart chose football over basketball FAB FIVE NO. 5: How Pike Road lineman Vysen Lang went from not wanting to play football to blue-chip recruit A five-star recruit and the No. 28 recruit in the nation in the Class of 2023, per 247Sports, Russaw recently released his top six schools: Alabama, Alabama State, Auburn, Florida, Georgia and Ohio State. He shares the same six finalists as teammate James Smith, a five-star defensive tackle, and the two are likely to announce their decisions when the early signing period begins in December. For Russaw, his looming commitment is just another step in a plan. 'This is my defense' There are some words that should only be thrown around rarely when discussing athletes. Freak. Marvel. Phenom. Russaw is that rare case. He refers to himself as an "athlete" — a word that, in the recruiting world, describes smaller, dual-threat quarterbacks or receiver/cornerback hybrids more often than chiseled 230-pounders. But there's no denying Russaw's versatility. He's played edge rusher, defensive end, middle linebacker, and has even moonlighted as a running back or wideout, and he'll likely line up on offense some this season too. Russaw's been clocked at 11.65 in the 100-meter dash and has recorded a shot-put distance of 42 feet. His Twitter feed is a mix of scholarship offers, photos from college visits and feats such as windmill dunks and tumbling passes. Russaw already had three SEC offers going into his sophomore year, and he earned more after a solid 2020 season, including Auburn and LSU. But Smith, at the time, captured most of the attention at Carver. Smith's transfer to IMG Academy last July set the stage for Russaw's breakout. "He knew then that he was the big dog on the defense," said Carver co-defensive coordinator TJ Presley. "... Kept us in a lot of ballgames. He really took on that role and took on that initiative of, 'This is my defense, I'm gonna make sure that we excel.' " Tracy Tyrome Varner, who owns MadHouse Athletic Training in Montgomery and works with Russaw there, would tell Russaw before games he needed four sacks that night. Gardner thinks Russaw got to 10 sacks by his third game. "Just going crazy," Russaw said of his start to 2021. "Just dominating every game. I knew it was something special." By midseason, opponents began trying to chip him and run plays away from him, but it made minimal difference. Russaw finished the season with 130 tackles, 27.5 tackles for loss and 16 sacks, and he was named a finalist for the ASWA's Class 6A Lineman of the Year award. Russaw reminds Gardner of Rashaan Evans, who starred at Auburn before becoming a first-round pick of the Atlanta Falcons in 2018. Evans had 43 tackles for loss as a high school senior and it's not hard to imagine Russaw challenging that total this season. HISTORIC CLASS: Why Alabama's Class of 2023 could be the state's best-ever WATCHLIST: 18 of the top returning defensive linemen to watch in the Montgomery area "He’s a coachable kid with whatever we asked him to do," Gardner said of Russaw. "We wanted to make sure he was utilized perfectly to be inside, outside. You can put him anywhere on the field." 'The prototypical ideal football player' Russaw grew up in Troy and played his freshman season at Charles Henderson High School before moving to Montgomery with his mother. Shortly after arriving in Montgomery, he began training at MadHouse with Todd Dowell, who he now refers to as his mentor. Dowell was struck by Russaw's physical gifts, but even more by his maturity. Like Smith, Russaw isn't one for the spotlight. "All they want," Dowell said of the two best friends, "is to play football" and work hard. There are seemingly never enough weights for Russaw to lift; never enough moves and techniques to learn. "(Russaw) knows what he wants, because he has a plan," Dowell said. "... Just a great kid, excellent student. He is the prototypical ideal football player that you would want. We tell college coaches, you can go to bed and you ain't gotta worry about getting a call about Russaw. "You can ask some kids, all they’re gonna say is 'I just play football.' Ru’s gonna tell you what he needs to do and how and he’s gonna do it. He breaks it down." Russaw described himself as more "locked-in" entering his senior season. He wants 20 sacks; wants a state title. He wants to major in physical therapy in college, influenced by his godmother, who owns a physical therapy center in Troy. Family is his driving force. He knows that he can support them should he make the NFL one day. This is Russaw's plan. He's attempting to make good on it the only way he knows how. "I look back from where I am now, I would have never imagined I’d be in this position," he said. "I just knew I was gonna work for it."

If approved by the FDA, fezolinetant would be a nonhormonal treatment for moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause TOKYO, Aug. 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Astellas Pharma Inc. (TSE: 4503, President and CEO: Kenji Yasukawa, Ph.D., "Astellas") today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted the company's New Drug Application (NDA) for fezolinetant, an investigational oral, nonhormonal compound seeking approval for the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms (VMS) associated with menopause. VMS, characterized by hot flashes and/or night sweats, are common symptoms of menopause.1,2 The PDUFA target action date is February 22, 2023, following use of a priority review voucher (PRV). Astellas booked ¥13.1 billion of amortization of the intangible asset relating to PRV as R&D expense in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022. "The FDA's acceptance of our NDA for fezolinetant brings us one step closer to advancing care for women in the U.S. who experience VMS," said Ahsan Arozullah, M.D., M.P.H., Senior Vice President and Head of Development Therapeutic Areas, Astellas. "We look forward to the FDA's review of our application, and the potential to offer a first-in-class nonhormonal treatment option to reduce the frequency and severity of moderate to severe VMS associated with menopause." The NDA is supported by results from the BRIGHT SKY™ program, which included three Phase 3 clinical trials that collectively enrolled over 2,800 women with VMS across the U.S., Canada and Europe. Results from the SKYLIGHT 1™ and SKYLIGHT 2™ pivotal trials characterize the efficacy and safety of fezolinetant for the treatment of moderate to severe VMS associated with menopause. Data from the SKYLIGHT 4™ safety study further characterizes the long-term safety profile of fezolinetant. Within the NDA, Astellas proposes a 45 mg daily dose, which is subject to the FDA's review. Fezolinetant is an investigational nonhormonal selective neurokinin 3 (NK3) receptor antagonist. The safety and efficacy of fezolinetant are under investigation and have not been established. The impact of this acceptance on Astellas' financial results of the current fiscal year ending March 31, 2023, is expected to be minor. The BRIGHT SKY pivotal trials, SKYLIGHT 1™ (NCT04003155) and SKYLIGHT 2™ (NCT04003142), enrolled over 1,000 women with moderate to severe VMS. The trials are double-blinded, placebo-controlled for the first 12 weeks followed by a 40-week treatment extension period. Women were enrolled at over 180 sites within the U.S., Canada and Europe. SKYLIGHT 4™ (NCT04003389) is a 52-week double-blinded, placebo-controlled study designed to investigate the long-term safety of fezolinetant. For SKYLIGHT 4, over 1,800 women with VMS were enrolled at over 180 sites within the U.S., Canada and Europe. VMS, characterized by hot flashes (also called hot flushes) and/or night sweats, are common symptoms of menopause.1,2 In the U.S., about 60% to 80% of women experience these symptoms during or after the menopausal transition and, worldwide, more than half of women 40 to 64 years of age experience VMS.3,4,5,6 VMS can have a disruptive impact on women's daily activities and overall quality of life.1 Fezolinetant is an investigational oral, nonhormonal therapy in clinical development for the treatment of moderate to severe VMS associated with menopause. Fezolinetant works by blocking neurokinin B (NKB) binding on the kisspeptin/neurokinin/dynorphin (KNDy) neuron to moderate neuronal activity in the thermoregulatory center of the brain (the hypothalamus) to reduce the frequency and severity of moderate to severe VMS associated with menopause.7,8,9 The safety and efficacy of fezolinetant are under investigation and have not been established. There is no guarantee the agent will receive regulatory approval or become commercially available for the uses being investigated.

DeSantis Takes Stage, Promises What's Happening Now 'Will Result in the Retirement of Nancy Pelosi' When Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis took the stage Sunday to boost Republicans running in Arizona, his live audience was in Phoenix. But he was grabbing attention from both political parties across the country, thanks to his role as an emerging star in the GOP. And that had to be unnerving for some households in California and Washington, D.C. – especially the ones with inhabitants named “Pelosi.” In a speech marked with his usual frank demeanor, DeSantis all but predicted a Republican takeover of Congress in the November midterm elections and looked ahead to the retirement of a certain octogenarian from San Francisco who’s been plaguing American politics since DeSantis was 9 years old. The midterm elections, he said, are going to be battles over the decisions in the recent past and decisions about the country’s future — and that future won’t include House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. “We’re gonna be fighting back against lockdown politicians all over this country who ruined people’s lives,” DeSantis told the cheering crowd. “And we’re gonna be fighting back against a failed Congress which will result in the retirement of Nancy Pelosi.” Gov. Ron DeSantis rips Nancy Pelosi and the crowd roars “…which will result in the retirement of Nancy Pelosi.” For the full rally join us on Rumble: https://t.co/QzklL2gnDb pic.twitter.com/7YOyE0Kc7I — RSBN (@RSBNetwork) August 15, 2022 From another politician in other circumstances, that might sound like boilerplate for a midterm campaign. Both parties try to project confidence going into the two-year election cycle mandated by the Constitution, when the entire House of Representatives and one-third of the Senate are up for election. But at 43, DeSantis isn’t an ordinary politician. After his razor-thin victory in 2018 over Democrat Andrew Gillum (the once-great Democratic hope who turned into a disgrace to himself and his party), DeSantis has established himself as one of the leading governors in the country, having dealt with the COVID-19 pandemic without shutting down the Sunshine State’s economy, and giving Florida a reputation for freedom that’s the envy of sane Americans everywhere. He’s running for re-election himself in November but is apparently confident to be taking his show on the road to help other Republicans. Sunday’s rally in Phoenix was to support Kari Lake, the former television journalist turned Republican candidate for governor in the Grand Canyon State, and Blake Masters, the Republican candidate for Senate seeking to replace Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly. Both Lake and Masters were endorsed by former President Donald Trump, so DeSantis’ appearance in their support is a signal not only to Arizona Republicans but also to GOP voters as a whole that the scenario of a Trump-DeSantis civil war remains only a fantasy of many on the liberal left (and too many NeverTrumps on the right). It was the first of several appearances planned for Trump-backed candidates in battleground states going into November’s vote. And these are no ordinary circumstances. Democrats have leveraged a paper-thin majority in the House and a tie-breaking majority in the Senate – literally one vote, by a woman who’s not even a senator anymore – into the largest spending programs in American history that have driven soaring inflation, and they’re not stopping. A party that has behaved as though it has majorities on a par with Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s New Deal Democrats in the 1930s (an average of 220 seats in the House from 1933-39) is almost certainly going to lose power in the midterms — most likely by painful numbers. So when DeSantis predicts Pelosi heading out to pasture, it carries a little more power than usual. At 82, the California Democrat took first took her seat in the House in 1987, during the second Reagan administration. It’s long past time she left it — under her own volition, by the ballot box, or in handcuffs. The governor, of course, didn’t neglect the other burning issue of the day — the FBI’s raid a week ago on Trump’s home in the Mar-a-Lago Club of DeSantis’ home state. DeSantis has already condemned the raid publicly, but he took the opportunity Sunday — his first public appearance since it took place — to denounce it again. Specifically, he compared the FBI’s thug tactics this time around with the kid-glove treatment former Secretary of State and Democratic presidential contender Hillary Clinton got from the FBI for treatment of her office’s official documents that was far worse, as far as is publicly known, than anything being hinted at about Trump. Gov. DeSantis calls out the FBI’s raid of Donald Trump’s home at Mar-a-Lago. — Benny Johnson (@bennyjohnson) August 15, 2022 “I’m trying to remember, maybe someone here can remind me, about when they did a search warrant at Hillary’s house in Chappaqua,” he said of her New York residence, “when she had a rogue server and she was laundering classified information. “I don’t remember them doing that. I do remember them manufacturing a false conspiracy theory about Russia collusion. I remember that. That was not true. That was an abuse of power.” He summed up with a slam at Attorney General Merrick Garland, President Joe Biden’s appointee who now leads a transparently politicized Justice Department. “They’re enforcing the law based on who they like and who they don’t like,” the governor said. “That is not a republic. Well, maybe it’s a banana republic when that happens.” It’s time for the Third World, banana republic days of Garland’s Justice Department to be brought under Republican lawmakers’ oversight. It’s time for the Stalinist kangaroo court of Pelosi’s committee on the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol incursion to be closed down for good. It’s time to stop forcing Americans to think about their country in disparaging cliches! In all seriousness, it’s time for Republicans, conservative Americans, independents and even Democrats — those who can remember when their party gave a damn about their country — to turn out in the midterms to make sure DeSantis’ prediction comes true. The country is saddled with the doddering Joe Biden in the White House, but recovery can start in five months when a new Congress is sworn in with a Republican majority — Pelosi turns over the gavel for good. We know DeSantis had listeners in Arizona. It’s a very good bet he had plenty in California and D.C. Let’s hope the rest of the country heard him, too.

- EUR/GBP takes the bids to refresh intraday high. - Bulls piece seven-week-old descending trend line, 200-SMA amid firmer oscillators. - Monthly horizontal support restricts immediate downside, 61.8% Fibonacci retracement adds to the upside filters. EUR/GBP bulls pierce the 0.8460 resistance confluence while extending the previous day’s rebound during early Thursday morning in Europe. That said, a convergence of the 200-SMA and a downward sloping trend line from July 01 highlights the 0.8460 level as the key hurdle for buyers. Given the bullish MACD signals and recently firmer RSI, coupled with the sustained trading beyond the monthly horizontal support area near the 0.8400 round figure, the EUR/GBP buyers are likely to keep the reins. With this, the upside momentum currently aims for the monthly high, marked in the last week at around 0.8495. Following that, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the July-August downside, around 0.8550, could act as an intermediate halt during the likely run-up towards the July 21 peak of 0.8585. On the flip side, pullback moves remain elusive until staying beyond the aforementioned horizontal support near 0.8400. Even if the EUR/GBP/ bears manage to conquer the 0.8400 support, multiple levels surrounding 0.8345-40 could challenge the quote’s further downside before directing the prices towards the 0.8300 round figure.

New York, May 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Insight Partners published the latest research study on Frozen Bakery Products Market Forecast to 2028 – COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis – by Product Type (Bread and Rolls, Cakes and Pastries, Cookies and Biscuits, and Others), Category (Gluten-free and Conventional), and End User (Foodservice and Food Retail). The report highlights key factors driving the market growth and prominent players along with their developments in the market. Frozen bakery products witness high demand as people prefer ready-to-bake products because they are easy to prepare and can be prepared quickly. In addition, a significant increase in demand for processed food products due to a shift in consumer preference for baked products drives the growth of the frozen bakery products market.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Frozen Bakery Products Market The COVID-19 outbreak has impacted different industries in a different manner. Amid the pandemic, the lockdown imposition is restricting the supply chain of frozen bakery products. The unavailability of raw materials and labor, due to the restrictions on the movement of people, is hindering the production of frozen bakery products. The frozen food industry has seen a steady growth amid pandemics as people are consuming foods that have a longer shelf life. According to the President of the American Frozen Food Institute (AFFI), the US-based frozen foods players have seen the sales of the frozen food products in the US were increased by 18.2% in 2020, which is approx. US$ 66 billion in sales. According to the AFFI report of November 2020, the decrease in the visits to the grocery store and being prepared to avoid food shortages motivated the consumers to buy frozen food products during the pandemic. The frozen food products supply chain has been mostly shifted from food service to the retail sector as the demand for frozen foods, such as frozen bakery products, has seen a shift from food service to household consumption. According to AFFI, during the COVID-19 outbreak, the consumers shopped online at a record rate where the sales for frozen food, including frozen bakery, witnessed a 75% increase. Thus, the increase in online sales for frozen food has resulted in a positive impact on the frozen bakery products market. Have A 15-Minute-Long Discussion with The Lead Research Analyst and Author of the Report in A Time Slot Decided by You. You, Will, Be Briefed About the Contents of the Report and Queries Regarding the Scope of the Document Will Be Addressed as Well: https://www.theinsightpartners.com/speak-to-analyst/TIPRE00003883/ In 2020, the frozen bakery products market was predominant in Europe at the global level. The primary factors driving the growth of the frozen bakery products market are the convenience these products offer, especially in minimizing the time required for cooking and baking. Moreover, the growing demand for ready-to-eat food products owing to hectic work schedules is also expected to contribute to the market growth in the region over the forecast period. According to a report published by Food Drink Europe, the food & beverages industry in Europe accounted for a turnover of US$ 1,463.5 billion in 2020 making it one of the largest manufacturing industries in Europe. The growth of this industry is driven by the rising demand for comfort foods, frozen foods, and ready-to-eat meals. Moreover, the foodservice sector is expected to register a notable growth over the coming years leading to the rising trend of cloud kitchen services, quick-service restaurants, online food delivery services, and other such factors in Europe. Among the segments of product type, the bread and rolls segment has led the market in 2020. Bread is a staple food prepared from a dough of water and flour. Bread has been a prominent food in many countries for a very long period. There has been an increase in the usage of bread as a frozen bakery, owing to the inclusion of a wide variety of additives such as fruits, nuts, various fats, and chemical additives that help in improving the texture and flavor and increasing the shelf life of the frozen bread. Immediate Delivery of Our Off-The-Shelf Reports and Latest Research Studies, Through Flexible and Convenient Payment Methods: https://www.theinsightpartners.com/buy/TIPRE00003883/ The urbanization of society has resulted in the increase in the prevalence of convenience foods in the western diet, resulting in market development. The availability of a wide range of frozen bakery products such as waffles, cookies and donuts, bread, cakes, and pastries provide customers with several options to choose from. Furthermore, an increase in economic standards, a rise in disposable incomes, and a diversification of food preferences are driving the demand for convenience foods. This, in turn, is boosting the growth of the frozen bakery products market. To meet the rising demand, companies are developing higher-quality frozen bakery products and more effective distribution networks to serve a larger consumer base. For instance, on March 31, 2021, Dawn Foods announced the acquisition of JABEX—which is a family-owned manufacturer based in Bielsko-Biala, Poland—that specializes in high-quality fruit-based products for the bakery industry. Therefore, the rising demand for convenience food items is expected to stimulate the growth of the global frozen bakery products market.

Arrested TMC leader claims her daughter cleared school recruitment exam Denying an allegation that his daughter Sukanya Mondal was appointed to a primary school without having cleared Teachers Eligibility Test, arrested TMC leader Anubrata Mondal on Thursday claimed that she has passed the exam and has a document to prove it. - Country: - India Denying an allegation that his daughter Sukanya Mondal was appointed to a primary school without having cleared Teachers' Eligibility Test, arrested TMC leader Anubrata Mondal on Thursday claimed that she has passed the exam and has a document to prove it. His comment came after the Calcutta High Court had on August 17 directed Mondal’s daughter to appear before it on Thursday in connection with the allegation that she and five others were appointed in primary schools without having passed the TET. ''She has passed the test and has a certificate to prove it. I am not well,'' said the TMC leader while he was taken to a hospital for a medical check-up. Mondal, the party's Birbhum district president, was arrested by the CBI last week in a cattle smuggling case. Sukanya is likely to appear before the high court as she left her Bolpur residence in the district earlier in the day. The petitioner has alleged that some people closely related to Anubrata Mondal, who is also the chairman of West Bengal Rural Development Authority, have been given jobs as teachers, including Sukanya, who never visited Kalikapur Primary School in Birbhum, where she was employed. In the affidavit, the petitioner claimed that the school attendance register was sent to Sukanya's residence for her signature. Justice Abhijit Gangopadhyay directed six persons named in the affidavit to appear personally on Thursday before the court with their TET certificate and their appointment letter. ''If anybody fails to appear, as has been directed above, the court will not hesitate to take harsh steps against them,'' he directed on Wednesday. Justice Gangopadhyay had earlier ordered CBI investigation in a number of cases of alleged irregularities in the appointment of teaching and non-teaching staff in West Bengal government-sponsored and -aided schools in the state.

"14 years ago, it all started": Virat Kohli shares montage of iconic moments of his career Marking the 14th anniversary of his debut in international cricket, Kohli took a trip down memory lane on Thursday as he posted a reel on his official Instagram account. - Country: - India Fourteen years ago on this day (August 18), former India captain Virat Kohli took his first steps on the international stage as he made his ODI debut for India aged 19. However, in his 14-year-long international stint since, Kohli has developed to be regarded as one of the greats and led the Indian team in all formats. Marking the 14th anniversary of his debut in international cricket, Kohli took a trip down memory lane on Thursday as he posted a reel on his official Instagram account, featuring some of the most iconic pictures from his outstanding career. Taking to Instagram, Kohli wrote, "14 years ago, it all started and it's been an honour," alongside an Indian flag. Notably, Kohli had opened the batting in India, and he faced 22 balls scoring just 12 runs and batted for 33 minutes at the crease before Sri Lankan bowler Nuwan Kulasekara dismissed him in the eighth over as India were beaten by eight wickets. He has since gone on to shatter numerous records along the way gathering 8074 runs in Tests, with 27 centuries. Kohli is one of the best blistering batters in all the formats but he sure knows how to smash centuries in ODIs with 43 tons to his name scoring 12344 runs. In T20Is, Kohli has smashed 3308 runs with 30 half-centuries. Former India captain is set to return for Men in Blue in the Asia Cup, where they will take on Pakistan in their opening match of the tournament.

With the latest batch of school leavers getting ready to start university on September 1, banks are competing to offer the best student current account perks - with two giving away £100 in cash. The good news is that banks are offering much better deals than they did last year. But the right account for you is personal and depends on what will be most helpful for you during your study. All these bank accounts basically do the same thing. They're free current accounts (meaning you don't pay a fee to use them), they all give you a debit card and they all have overdrafts. The main differences between them are the perks they offer and what sort of interest-free overdraft they have. Many banks only let you have one student account - so you can't open two and get two lots of perks or overdrafts. Also bear in mind that when banks offer these deals what they really want is for you to continue banking with them after your degree ends. That means they get to profit from all the cash sitting in current accounts earning little to no interest for the customer. When you graduate, most of the perks will vanish and you'll be left with whatever that bank's bog-standard current or graduate account is. So just before you graduate it's worth checking you're happy with that, or else consider switching. Here are the best student current account deals on the market to help you make the right choice in 2022. HSBC - free £100 and hefty overdraft HSBC is offering new sign-ups £100 in cash to its current account, the Student Bank Account. That's a £20 increase on last year. You can get the £100 when you've made five puchases using your debit card within 30 days of opening the account. But the bank has a pretty good overdraft limit too. In the first year you'll get from £1,000, then £2,000 in the second year and £3,000 in your third year. You can also get discounts at Costa Coffee, ASOS, Boohoo and more with HSBC's home&Away offers programme Nationwide - free £100, good overdraft Similar to HSBC, Nationwide is also offering a free £100 if you sign up to its FlexStudent account. To get this you need to pay in at least £500 by December 16, 2022. Again, like HSBC, Nationwide lets you apply for a £1,000 overdraft in year one, £2,000 in year two and £3,000 in year three. You have to pay in £500 a term to qualify for this overdraft. Also, for every FlexStudent opened in August and September Nationwide gives £10 to homelessness charity Shelter. NatWest and RBS - £80 cash and restaurant discounts These two banks are part of the same group - and have identical Student Accounts. Both are giving £80 in cash and a four-year Tastecard, which gives 50% off food and two-for-one meals. The banks are offering an overdraft of up to £2,000, or up to £500 in your first term. Both banks are also offering an emergency cash service that lets you take out up to £130 without needing your debit card. Santander - free railcard worth £70 Santander is giving away a railcard worth £70 with its 123 Student Current Account. This gives a third off the cost of train travel, and normally costs £70 for three years. The bank's student overdraft gives up to £1,500 in years one to three. For students on longer degrees, Santander is offering up to £1,800 in year four and as much as £2,000 in your fifth year. The bank is also giving a perk of up to 15% cashback at firms like Co-op, Morrisons, Just Eat and Costa with its Retailer Offers. Lloyds - 15% cashback at some retailers The Lloyds Student Current Account does not offer any free cash. However, it does let customers apply for an overdraft of up to £1,500 in Years one to three and up to £2,000 in years four to six. You can also get up to 15% cashback at retailers such as Co-op, Costa and Sky. Halifax - 15% cashback The Student Current Account from Halifax offers an interest-free arranged overdraft up to £1,500 for the length of your course plus three years after you graduate. You can also get up to 15% cashback when you spend using your debit card. Retailers who have signed up include Costa, Harvey Nichols and Sainsbury's. Barclays - free textbook access The Barclays offering is the Student Additions Account. The account gives free access to Perlego, an online academic library that normally costs £96 a year. Barclays' student account gives an overdraft of up to £500 in year one, £1,000 in year two and £1,500 in years three, four and five. This is half the overdraft it was offering last year - of £1,000 in the first year, £2,000 in the second and £3,000 in the third. TSB - up to £25 in interest a term The TSB Student Account's main perk is that it offers 5% interest on balances of up to £500 above your overdraft - so up to £25 a term. It's overdraft is fine - up to £500 in your first six months, £1,000 in months seven to nine then up to £1,500 from month ten onwards. Co-op - decent overdraft The Co-op student bank account's main feature is its overdraft. It gives up to £1,400 in your first year, up to £1,700 in year two and £2,000 in years three and onwards. You also get a year after you graduate to pay back anything you owe.

Liz Cheney's Husband Has Only One Degree of Separation from Hunter Biden's 'Tax Issues' Barring a miracle on her behalf, GOP Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming will soon become a lame duck. Cheney is one of two token anti-Donald Trump Republicans on the Democrats’ Jan. 6 kangaroo kommittee in the House. The other, Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger, had the self-awareness not to seek another term. On Tuesday, Wyoming voters will make Cheney aware of how they feel about her. The polls provide a bit of a spoiler alert: The latest survey has her down by 29 points to Trump-endorsed challenger Harriet Hageman, and the margin has been widening. However, if Cheney is worried about money matters, she should cheer up. Her husband’s law firm has been given the gift that keeps on giving: Hunter Biden’s patronage. As the New York Post noted on Saturday, Cheney’s husband, Philip Perry, is a partner at a firm representing President Joe Biden’s wayward son as the Department of Justice probes his “tax issues” — just one degree of separation from a case that could have dramatic effects on the November midterms and 2024 presidential election. “Philip Perry has worked at Latham & Watkins since 2007, and focuses on white collar cases, commercial and Supreme Court litigation, according to his company biography,” the Post reported. “Another Latham partner, Chris Clark, has been representing Hunter Biden since December 2020 — but Cheney’s husband’s involvement at the firm had not been previously known.” This isn’t entirely accurate — although it’s worth noting the media has been slow at putting two and two together on this. In February 2021, Axios reported that Hunter had hired Latham & Watkins to represent him in December 2020. In February of this year, Just the News made the connection, noting “Liz Cheney’s Hunter Biden problem.” The issue seems to have gotten traction in the final days of the Wyoming GOP primary campaign, however, after conservative outlet The Federalist picked it up last week. Philip Perry (Liz Cheney’s husband) is a partner at same firm that Hunter’s lawyer is partner at. Meaning, Liz Cheney’s husband is making money from Hunter Biden. pic.twitter.com/FnIHtI1BH5 — Mollie (@MZHemingway) August 5, 2022 According to the Post, Clark’s profile at the firm’s website prominently mentions that he’s been representing Hunter Biden in a “grand jury investigation regarding tax issues.” I’m not quite sure why that would be considered a feather in a litigator’s cap, although I’ll concede the fact that Hunter has yet to face any serious charges for his behavior is a minor miracle. (As Breitbart noted, the president’s son is also under investigation for potentially lying on a federal firearm purchase form, although it’s unclear if anyone at Latham & Watkins is representing him for this.) Then again, perhaps this minor miracle has nothing to do with Clark himself. Consider this error-splattered email from the lawyer to a reporter for the U.K.’s Daily Mail when he was asked for comment on a different Hunter-related matter: Perhaps the most surprising thing about this was Hunter’s lawyer’s response when I asked him for comment: pic.twitter.com/BSTsoukXOs — Josh Boswell (@JoshTBoswell) August 5, 2022 I hope someone else is typing up his court documents. Poor spelling and grammar from one of its partners aside, though, Latham & Watkins is considered a “Democratic powerhouse,” according to the Post, with its employees ponying up more than half a million dollars to Joe Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign. While the connection between Latham, Perry and Hunter Biden has been a new wrinkle in the final days of Cheney’s primary run, Perry’s partnership at the firm was already a campaign issue, although mostly over its ties to China. Just the News reported in February that while Perry “does not work directly on accounts linked to Chinese companies, as a partner, he reaps directly the financial rewards of the firm as a whole.” Hageman said this arrangement “is exactly the problem with Washington, D.C.” “What do we find out when we dig a little bit deeper,” Hageman said, is that Cheney and Perry “are personally, financially benefiting from working for China and Kazakhstan and Belarus and Saudi Arabia.” “He has a choice, he can either work with his firm and take the stand that his wife is apparently advocating publicly, and say, ‘We’re not going to represent countries or companies that, number one have problems with human rights abuses, and number two, who are really kind of in a soft war with the United States.’ Or you can go to another law firm,” she said. “Have some integrity.” Those three words are the crux of the issue, though: If Perry is anything like the woman he married, he might not have any. It’s not that Liz Cheney turned on then-President Donald Trump after Jan. 6, 2021. It’s that, as the haze from the Capitol incursion lifted on Jan. 7, she saw little more than a branding opportunity. Like so many before her, she became a careerist NeverTrumper — someone whose entire political future was a gamble that the soon-to-be-former president would be so radioactive that loudly, constantly decrying his existence would be enough to catapult her from a middling position in GOP leadership to the speaker’s chair or the White House. She gambled wrongly, but rest assured the swamp has plenty of job opportunities for her. The only question left to ask is whether CNN or MSNBC secures her services when she leaves office in January. Not that she needs them. An estimate cited by Breitbart said Cheney’s net worth has increased more than 600 percent, “from an estimated $7 million when she first took office in 2017 to possibly more than $44 million in 2020.” Liz Cheney doesn’t represent the people of Wyoming. She represents herself first and foremost, and then the Beltway machine that created her. And, as for her husband, at least you can’t say she didn’t marry someone who shares her values — skewed though they may be.

Trialjectory's clinical trial finder uses self-reported, patient-friendly questionnaire results to provide MPN patients with a curated list of matched, relevant trials. Serving as a patient resource and support system throughout the entire treatment journey, Trialjectory also provides patients with access to clinical trial specialists who support their needs during the application and enrollment process, as well as participation in the actual trial. "Effective clinical trial matching is particularly important for MPN patients, as the diseases often include a wide range of profiles at different stages for patients," said Kapila Viges, MPN Research Foundation CEO. "With Trialjectory's sophisticated clinical trial finder, patients have a hassle-free, easy-to-use tool that allows them to identify the best options for their unique situation. Through this collaboration, we hope to empower patients to not only take action on their own behalf but also to contribute to better outcomes for all MPN patients through helping to advance MPN research at large." Whether patients search for clinical trials when they first get diagnosed or when a current treatment isn't working / has stopped being effective, Trialjectory's clinical trial finder also allows patients to: - Interact with a live concierge service to answer any questions that they may have along the way (available in English, Spanish and French) to adequately support and encourage trial participation among patients with diverse backgrounds - Print or email trials they find interesting so that they can easily share with their oncologist to spark a discussion - Receive updates when new trials match their profile, if so desired "With very few currently approved treatments for MPN, it's vital that these patients know about and understand all of their available options specific to their diagnosis, symptoms and treatment history," added Tzvia Bader, Trialjectory Co-Founder and CEO. "Clinical trials are known to often provide better outcomes for patients compared with standard-of-care treatments, and technologies like AI can help them to find and learn about trials in an easily digestible, comprehensive way. This provides a true democratization of advanced treatment options for patients everywhere facing an MPN diagnosis. Both Trialjectory and the MPNRF are committed to helping these individuals every step of the way to ensure that they have the necessary tools to beat the disease."

Inside Russia’s deadly toybox as Putin shows off Russian weapons including tanks, missiles & ‘super soldier’ brain tests VLADIMIR Putin unveiled Russia's deadly military toybox this week as he showed off tanks, missiles and "super soldier" brain tests. The Russian dictator, 69, boasted that his soldiers' equipment was "decades" ahead of the West at the country's annual arms convention on the outskirts of Moscow. T-72 battle tanks, BMP K-17 armoured trucks and Tulpan self-propelled heavy mortar shells were all flaunted to foreign buyers at the Army-2022 expo in Patriot Park, Alabino. Putin said more than 28,000 "modern samples of military and dual-use products" were being displayed by 1,500 Russian manufacturers to delegates from 72 countries. A Russian soldier was pictured preparing for a "brain test" on a military student at the major military exhibition. The apprentice soldier in full military uniform was seen being hooked up with wires by an officer, following a complicated diagram in the background. Putin has previously claimed genetically-modified "super soldiers" who are incapable of feeling "pain or fear" could soon become a reality. A four-legged robot dog was also shown off, seen trotting along the floor while wielding a rocket-propelled grenade launcher on its back. The robot - dressed up in a ninja-like outfit - is capable of crouching on the floor, making it harder for the enemy to spot, while it waits to fire off a rocket. According to Russian state news agency RIA Novosti, the robot, dubbed the M-81 system, will be able to transport weapons and ammunition and fire them during combat. Most read in US News A prototype of the Ural "first self-driving military truck" that can reportedly travel up to 80km per hour was also on display. Putin also used the expo to show off his supposed "Ukraine trophies" - including an M777 howitzer and a Tochka-U missile shot down and captured by his troops. Russia ranks second to the US with arms sales of around £12.4billion a year - nearly a fifth of the global export market But Kremlin chiefs are said to have faced pushback from key allies, such as India and Egypt, as Putin's weapons and tactics fall short in Ukraine, making its arms exports less attractive to potential buyers. At the opening of the convention on Monday, Putin vowed to arm allies with the "most modern weapons" - and bragged that Russia's military might is "many years, if not decades" ahead of his Western rivals. Russia has been keen to offer support to countries it considers allies in Latin America, Africa and Asia since the Ukraine invasion - including through selling advanced weapons and military tech. A senior Russian official met the commander of Palestinian security forces to discuss military and intelligence co-operation at the expo. And Russia's defence ministry said it held talks with the West African nation of Mali on strengthening its defence capabilities. Putin vowed at the opening of Army-2022 on Monday: "We are ready to offer our allies the most modern types of weapons, from small arms to armoured vehicles and artillery to combat aviation and unmanned aerial vehicles. "Almost all of them have been used more than once in real combat operations. "Many of them are years, if not decades, ahead of their foreign counterparts. And in terms of tactical and technical characteristics they are significantly superior to them." Ruth Deyermond, senior lecturer in the Department of War Studies at King's College London, said Putin's performance in Ukraine has been a "disaster" for his military credibility. She said: "With the collapse of economic relations with the West, Russia is even more dependent on the arms trade than it was before, so it’s not surprising that Putin is so keen to promote them to as many non-Western customers as he can. "The big problem for him is that Russia’s war against Ukraine has been a disaster for Russian military credibility - their performance has been a very poor advertisement for their weapons."

‘TOKOTA BOYS’ GIVEN NON-CUSTODIAL SENTENCE By Darius Choonya The Lusaka High Court has placed seven members of the notorious Kitwe gang popularly known as the Tokota Boys to four years on probation for abducting Cathdeck Nkonde, a Kitwe resident. The Seven, among them three juveniles, in April 2018 also caused grievous harm on the victim. In passing his judgement, High Court Judge, Timothy Katanekwa, says he has exercised his leniency against the convicts by giving them a non-custodial sentence considering that they are juveniles and youths who deserve a second chance in life. He says the convicts are young and capable of reforming. In 2018, Police in Kitwe had arrested 19 people belonging to a notorious group of gangs popularly known as the Tokota Boys who had been terrorizing Kitwe residents. Of the 19 arrested, 12 were acquitted for not being linked to the offense. With this judgement by the court, all the accused people will be required to visit the welfare department once every month for counselling until they are reformed.

This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — A bombing at a mosque in the Afghan capital of Kabul during evening prayers killed at least 21 people, including a prominent cleric, and wounded at least 33 others, eyewitnesses and police said Thursday. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack Wednesday night, the latest to strike the country in the year since the Taliban seized power. Several children were reported to be among the wounded. The Islamic State group’s local affiliate has stepped up attacks targeting the Taliban and civilians since the former insurgents’ takeover last August as U.S. and NATO troops were in the final stages of their withdrawal from the country. Last week, the extremists claimed responsibility for killing a prominent Taliban cleric at his religious center in Kabul. Khalid Zadran, the spokesman for Kabul's Taliban police chief, gave the figures to The Associated Press for the bombing at the Siddiquiya mosque in the city’s Kher Khanna neighborhood. An eyewitness told the AP the explosion was carried out by a suicide bomber. The slain cleric was Mullah Amir Mohammad Kabuli, the eyewitness said, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to the media. Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid condemned the explosion and vowed that the “perpetrators of such crimes will soon be brought to justice and will be punished.” There were fears the casualty numbers could rise further. On Thursday morning, one witness to the blast who gave his name as Qyaamuddin told the AP he believed as many as 25 people may have been killed in the blast. “It was evening prayer time, and I was attending the prayer with others, when the explosion happened,” Qyaamuddin said. Some Afghans go by a single name. AP journalists could see the blue-roofed, Sunni mosque from a nearby hillside. The Taliban parked police trucks and other vehicles at the mosque, while several men carried out one casket for a victim of the attack. A U.S.-led invasion toppled the previous Taliban government, which had hosted al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan, following the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in the United States. Since regaining power, the former insurgents have faced a crippling economic crisis as the international community, which does not recognize the Taliban government, froze funding to the country. On Thursday, the Taliban hosted a gathering of 3,000 tribal elders, religious scholars and others in Kandahar, their state-run Bakhtar News Agency reported. It wasn't immediately clear what topics they planned to discuss. Separately, the Taliban confirmed on Wednesday that they had captured and killed Mehdi Mujahid in western Herat province as he was trying to cross the border into Iran. Mujahid was a former Taliban commander in the district of Balkhab in northern Sar-e-Pul province, and the only member of the minority Shiite Hazara community among the Taliban ranks. Mujahid had turned against the Taliban over the past year, after opposing decisions made by Taliban leaders in Kabul. ___ Faiez reported from Islamabad.

Bluey: Disney to ‘reevaluate’ censorship after episode didn’t meet guidelines Season three’s episode titled ‘Family Meeting’ was apparently blocked from streaming services Disney has said it will “reevaluate” its Standard and Practices guidelines after it received complaints about censorship of the children’s show Bluey. Originating in Australia, the three-season children’s cartoon follows the adventures of its titular character, a Blue Heeler puppy who lives with her family and finds herself in silly and unpredictable situations. After acquiring the international rights to the series, Disney+ began distributing it internationally in 2019. Recently, fans noticed that one of the episodes in its third season, titled “Family Meeting” – which was apparently about breaking wind – was seemingly left off of the streamer’s platform entirely. Now, according to the blog Pirates and Princesses, following an earlier article about the censorship, a Disney Branded Television employee got in touch via email to explain the reason it was left off. The email reads: “‘Family Meeting’ will roll out on US platforms soon. Some of the Bluey content did not meet Disney Junior broadcast S&P in place at the time the series was acquired. “Now that it is rolling out on other platforms, it is a great opportunity to reevaluate which is what we plan to do.” The Independent has reached out to Disney for comment. This isn’t the first time Disney has been strict on its censorship of content it deemed “inappropriate”. A couple of months ago, Gravity Falls creator released what he claimed were hilarious “real notes” he received from Disney’s censorship department, for revisions to his 2012 show.

She-Hulk reviews: Critics brand new Marvel series ‘dated’ but ‘pure fun’ Marvel series is out now on Disney Plus Marvel Studios’ latest series, the superhero legal comedy She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, is final here. Starring Tatiana Maslany as Jennifer Walters, a talented lawyer who becomes imbued with the powers of the Hulk, She-Hulk debuted its first episode on Disney+ on Thursday (18 August). Reactions to the series have been broadly positive, with reviewers praising the show’s comedic tone and central performance. Here’s what the critics have been saying... Caroline Framke writes in Variety: “She-Hulk is charming enough as it bounces from one hijink to the next, especially in Maslany’s capable hands. “But between its obligations to the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe, a far more limited budget than its film peers, and attempts to infuse Jen’s story with dated #girlboss energy, She-Hulk also represents an unsteady balancing act that needs more time than it likely has to settle into its own groove.” The Guardian’s Lucy Mangan writes: “It doesn’t have the emotional depth, the subtlety or the technical sophistication of WandaVision. “It doesn’t have the youthful bounce or a spin as refreshing as the Islamic slant of Ms Marvel. But, oh, you will enjoy yourself thoroughly, for at least 28 minutes straight. And, honestly, who at the moment dare ask for more than that?” In a four-star write-up for Radio Times, David Craig writes: “Undoubtedly, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is very different to any of Marvel’s other Disney Plus forays, so it could take time for some viewers to acclimatise to the format. “However, the show’s magnetic lead performance and rapid fire gags make it a joyful experience to get swept up in, with the minimal stakes being a refreshing change of pace from the apocalyptic scenarios of the big-screen outings (and indeed, our day-to-day lives). She-Hulk is just pure fun.” Proma Khosla writes for IndieWire: “The She-Hulk team doesn’t lack for comedy writing talent (with alums from Robot Chicken, On My Block, Santa Clarita Diet, and actual She-Hulk comics), but the show still searches for its voice, bogged down by larger tasks of fitting into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, developing Phase 4, and establishing this character in a world teeming with superheroes. “In the four episodes screened for critics, there’s no hint of where She-Hulk is heading.” The series is available to stream on Disney+, with new episodes arriving every Thursday.

A Louisville man who lost his home in the Marshall Fire and is accused of threatening a firefighter after trying to go back to the burn area is set for trial early next year. Stephen Tyger Francis Roch, 25, pleaded not guilty Tuesday in Boulder District Court to felony menacing, vehicular eluding, obstructing a peace officer, obstructing a firefighter and obstructing government operations. Roch is now set for a three-day trial starting Jan. 23, and a motions hearing on Nov. 30. He remains out of custody on a personal recognizance bond. According to an affidavit, a firefighter working the Marshall Fire encountered Roch in the area of St. Andrews Lane and Dillon Road at 9:45 a.m. Dec. 31, the day after the fire had started. The firefighter told Roch the area was still under mandatory evacuation orders and asked him to leave. Roch reportedly told the firefighter he would need to “take him out” and told the firefighter he had an AR-15 rifle. When police arrived on scene after the firefighter called in the threat, Roch got into a vehicle and fled the area, at one point driving through the burnt remains of a house. Officers were eventually able to get Roch to stop, and he was taken into custody. Police found a loaded AR-15 rifle inside the vehicle with the safety off and a loaded 9 mm handgun. Extra ammunition for both weapons, including 2,000 rounds for the rifle, were also found inside the vehicle. According to the affidavit, Roch declined to speak to police. Firefighters did say they believed Roch lost his home in the fire and was upset.

Mom fatally shot home intruder to defend kids, she says MILWAUKEE (WTMJ) - A family of three is now traumatized after they say a strange man broke into their home, and the mother fatally shot him while defending her children, she claims. A mother of two, who asked not to be identified, was showering before work Monday morning when she heard her children, ages 12 and 14, screaming from the living room. Still dripping wet, she says she ran to her bedroom, grabbed her gun and faced down a strange man, who she claims broke into her home. She says the man charged, undeterred by her dogs, and she shot him in self-defense. “It all happened so fast — an adrenaline rush,” she said. Community activist Bushraa Rahman helped clean up the home after authorities removed the body. “She was scared because her children were there with her. So, she did what any mother would do. She defended her children,” Rahman said. “It was an act of self-defense.” Police have not identified the man. The mother says he appeared to be in his late 30s and was acting erratically. Following the shooting, police arrested the mother then released her several hours later after questioning. They referred the case to the district attorney’s office for review. “In today’s day and age, with mental health and everything else that’s taking place in the world, I mean, you better protect yourself. To be honest, you have to,” Rahman said. The mother says her children are traumatized after the incident, and the family intends to move out once they find a new place to live. She says she bought the gun 10 years ago after finding a man sleeping under her son’s bed. She says she hoped she’d never have to use it. Copyright 2022 WTMJ via CNN Newsource. All rights reserved.

A new project at the Smithsonian museum has uncovered "graffitied" notes aboard Apollo 11, written by Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins as they were blasted up to the Moon in July 1969. Archivists from the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C. recently discovered the space-age relics, which include notes, workings out and figures written by the three astronauts. Among the writing was also a graffitied calendar, below, which the crew used to cross out the days as they went by, and a note on a locker saying “Smelly Waste!” – thought to be a cautionary reminder where they were storing their body waste. Space historians are working with the Smithsonian to figure out when and why exactly each marking was made. The museum curators hope the find will give a fresh insight into the humanity behind the Moon landings and a new understanding of how these missions were conducted. Already, much of the scrawling suggests that parts of the mission relied on improvisation and many of the decisions were ad-libbed by the three-man crew.

It’s thought he was desperately trying to configure information from ground-control that would help him locate them and the Lunar Module Eagle on the Moon’s surface “As curator of what is arguably one of the most iconic artifacts in the entire Smithsonian collection, it’s thrilling to know that we can still learn new things about Columbia,” says Allan Needell, curator of space history at the museum, in a statement. “This isn’t just a piece of machinery, it’s a living artifact.” The National Air and Space Museum found the handwritten notes during their recent collaboration with the Smithsonian’s 3D Digitization Program. Together, they scoured the whole of the Apollo 11 spacecraft to gather data to create a detailed 3D model of it. The project hopes to bring space history into the digital age, with a virtual reality simulation of the full Apollo 11 command module Columbia, which people can experience online.
