North Carolina will see six major transportation improvements, thanks to new federal spending from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
The U.S. Department of Transportation announced that 166 projects will receive funds nationwide this year under the $2.2 billion Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity, or RAISE, grants.
“We are very appreciative of our federal partners for helping advance transportation in North Carolina,” said J. Eric Boyette, the state’s transportation secretary. “These RAISE grants will greatly benefit our economy, strengthen supply chains, and make travel safer and easier, whether you’re driving, bicycling, walking or riding the train.”
North Carolina’s nearly $60 million share of the RAISE grants will pay to:
• Reconstruct 28 bridges in western North Carolina. The $10.7 million in RAISE funds will help fix low-water bridges in six counties so they can better function during flood events and other bad weather emergencies.
• Transform a busy corridor from Rutherfordton to Spindale into a complete street. RAISE funds totaling over $20 million will pay for road improvements and bicycle, pedestrian and transit improvements in Rutherford County.
• Fund the planning of mobility hubs in seven communities along the S-Line, a rail corridor between Raleigh and Petersburg, Va. The $3.4 million in RAISE funds will increase access to transportation options, rail and transit services. It will also better connect urban and rural communities, improve freight services, and reduce travel time on rail between Raleigh and Washington D.C.
• Build a new intermodal facility at the Wilmington port. More than $18 million is going to construct a facility that will enable the loading and discharging of supply containers on and off trains at the port.
• Engineer and design a 3.6-mile multi-use path and add other sidewalks and paths in the Elizabeth City area. The law will provide $2 million in funds for this project.
• Construct a 1.2-mile extension to the Long Branch Trail in Winston-Salem. The extension aims to reduce pedestrian and bicycle-related crashes in an underserved community. The law provides $6 million for this project.
NCDOT’s Integrated Mobility Division supported the S-Line communities on their application and did the same for Rutherfordton and Spindale. The division offers similar technical expertise to small towns, counties and other communities around the state.
The RAISE program was the first discretionary grant program for which applications were accepted under last year’s $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The recent announcement was one of the first opportunities that President Joe Biden had to demonstrate plans for distributing the money.

Communities and others interested in applying for federal transportation grants are welcome to contact staff in NCDOT for assistance. | https://www.warrenrecord.com/news/article_07b00058-1e38-11ed-97d0-eb345f43dea8.html | 2022-08-21T01:41:51Z | https://www.warrenrecord.com/news/article_07b00058-1e38-11ed-97d0-eb345f43dea8.html | false | 1 |

Oleksandr Usyk’s influence over the heavyweight division is not going away.
Saturday night in Saudi Arabia, Usyk beat Anthony Joshua via split decision to retain the WBA (Super), IBF, WBO and IBO titles he took from Joshua in September. The Ring title was also on the line. Used outpointed Joshua, who had a few brilliant moments early on. Those wasn’t enough to take down the Ukrainian champ.
Following the fight, Joshua grabbed the mic and delivered a bizarre post-fight speech. He praised Usyk while also still appearing angry at the result of the bout.
"I'm stealing this, Usyk. I'm sorry, but it's because of the passion we put into this,” Joshua said at the beginning. "This guy to beat me tonight, maybe I could have done better, but it shows the level of hard work I put in. So, please, give him a round of applause as our heavyweight champion of the world.”

Usyk’s performance, especially in the later rounds, earned praise from boxers and media members alike on social media. Joshua’s performance was also mentioned on Twitter, and his post-fight speech stunned everyone.

Family, friends and fans have paid tribute to French cartoonist Jean-Jacques Sempé, whose simple line drawings tinted with humor graced the covers of The New Yorker magazine and granted him international acclaim.
A funeral Mass for Sempé — affectionately known as J.J. in the United States — took place Friday at the Church of Saint-Germain-des-Prés in Paris. Friends and relatives honored the artist, who died last week at age 89, and his legacy. A private funeral was held at the city’s renowned Montparnasse cemetery.
Outside the church, a poster of Sempé’s first New Yorker cover stood next to a black-and-white portrait of him festooned with flowers. The Aug. 14, 1978 cover depicted the façade of a New York building, with a bald-headed bird with glasses in a suit perched on a high-up window and enlightened by pale yellow rays of sunshine.
The drawing epitomizes the artist’s gentle ironic universe, sublimated by vivid watercolors and a breezy and seemingly effortless style. In his native France, he found fame with illustrations for the classic “Le Petit Nicolas” (“Little Nicholas”) children’s book series, and went on to specialize in drawings about life’s simple pleasures.
“It takes me a very long time, weeks or even months for me to get it right,” Sempé told The Associated Press in a 2011 interview. “You get thinking about something that little by little starts taking shape in your mind.”
Sempé captured the thin, fashionable haute bourgeoisie of Paris and mustachioed, beret-wearing townsfolk, all bearing hallmark hulking noses and replete with bicycles, baguettes, books and tractors. But he also found inspiration in The New Yorker’s hometown, the magazine noted in an homage published on Instagram.
“I love the colors in New York,” he said. “They’re dynamic: bright yellows, greens, reds, and blues. Paris, where I live, is beautiful but it’s always gray. I love Paris, too, but it’s not the same.”
He drew more than 100 covers for The New Yorker after meeting the magazine’s art director in Paris in 1978. Despite its unequivocal Frenchness, Sempé’s work touched a universal nerve, portraying culture-crossing human follies and neuroses.
“He marked several generations. You can’t find in the U.S. a reader of the print version of the New Yorker who doesn’t know who Sempé is,” Francoise Mouly, the publication’s current art director, said in an interview with French newspaper Libération.
Mouly praised his “universal way to address the point of view of individuals in daily life, common situations” in drawings that spoke to people from Paris to New York.
A 71-year-old French artist known as Gabs said Sempé inspired him to become a cartoonist.
“Sempé embodies Frenchness, the ways he depicted Paris, France’s little villages and scenes of daily life,” and “a form of innocence and joy,” Gabs said at the funeral.
French novelist Benoit Dutertre gave a poignant speech recalling his beloved friend who enjoyed biking and having a coffee in Left Bank cafés while smoking a cigarette, despite being sick during his last years.
“With a sip of humor, he was a great storyteller of France’s evolving society,” he said.
Born Aug. 17, 1932, in the southwestern city of Bordeaux, Sempé briefly followed the steps of his father — who worked as a traveling salesman — as a bicycle delivery boy for a wine merchant, then joined the army and was sent to Paris for basic training.
There, he canvassed newspaper editors to persuade them to publish his drawings, he said in his autobiography. One series of drawings, entitled “Le Petit Nicolas” and featuring a mischievous but goodhearted schoolboy, appeared in a Belgian paper. It would later grow into the book series that proved Sempé’s most enduring success.
Anne Goscinny — former wife of Rene Goscinny, the author of “Le Petit Nicolas” who died in 1977 — addressed Sempé himself at the church service, saying: “You created le Petit Nicolas. You made all childhoods smile. Today you meet again with (Goscinny), I’m sure of it, and I hear you laugh until you weep.”
In 1962, Sempé published his first collection of drawings, “Rien n’est simple” (“Nothing Is Simple’’). Some of his more than 40 books have been published in English in the U.S. He is survived by two children, Nicolas and Catherine.

DALLAS – Two pilots who reportedly fell asleep and missed the top of descent into Addis Ababa’s Bole International Airport (ADD) have been suspended by Ethiopian Airlines (ET).
Flight ET343 departed Sudan’s Khartoum International Airport (KRT) on August 15 and was cruising at 37,000 feet on autopilot when it overshot its descent point.
Despite numerous attempts by Air Traffic Control (ATC) to contact the Boeing 737-800, communication was lost. An alarm was subsequently triggered in the flight deck, alerting the pilots that the autopilot had disconnected after overflying ADD. The flight crew then turned back and commenced a descent, landing some 25 minutes later.
“Removed From Operation”
A statement released by the airline said: “We have received a report which indicates Ethiopian flight number ET343 en route from Khartoum to Addis Ababa temporarily lost communication with Addis Ababa Air Traffic Control on August 15, 2022.The flight later landed safely after communication was restored.”
“The concerned crew have been removed from operation pending further investigation. Appropriate corrective action will be taken based on the outcome of the investigation. Safety has always been and will continue to be our first priority.”
Ethiopian Airlines is Africa’s largest carrier, and the investigation is expected to be completed quickly to alleviate any passenger concerns regarding the airline’s safety.

DALLAS – Flights to Moscow have been put on hold by Wizz Air Abu Dhabi (5W) until further notice, the airline announced.
Earlier this month, the airline announced starting daily flights to the Russian capital on October 3 for as little as Dh359. However, due to supply difficulties in the sector, W5 has decided to postpone its plans. The airline has stated that it will provide customers who have purchased tickets with cash refunds and other options.
Wizz Air Abu Dhabi operates services to 34 destinations, including Alexandria (Egypt), Almaty (Kazakhstan), Amman (Jordan), Aqaba (Jordan), Athens (Greece), Baku (Azerbaijan), Belgrade (Serbia), Dammam (Saudi Arabia), Kuwait City (Kuwait), Kutaisi (Georgia), Manama (Bahrain), Male (Maldives), Muscat (Oman), Nur-Sultan (Kazakhstan), Salalah (Oman), Santorini (Greece), Sarajevo (Bosnia), Sohag (Egypt), Tel-Aviv (Israel), Tirana (Albania) and Yerevan (Armenia) among others.
Comments from Wizz Air Abu Dhabi
“Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, the ultra-low fare national airline of the UAE, regrets to inform its customers that the airline has had to defer the start date of its flight operations from Abu Dhabi to Moscow until further notice due to industry supply chain limitations,” the airline said in a statement.
“Passengers with reservations on these flights will be contacted via email and presented their options to obtain refunds in the original method of payment or 120 percent of the ticket fare in WIZZ credit to be utilised for WIZZ flights and services, all possible directly via their customer accounts on wizzair.com,” the airline added.

ZAPORIZHZHIA, Ukraine — In this eastern Ukrainian city, a Soviet-era mural stands boldly in front of Zaporizhstal iron and steel works.
The mural shows muscular ironworkers handing a freshly forged sword to equally muscular soldiers who are rushing off to war. Today, however, Ukraine's iron industry is in rough shape because of war itself.
During much of the 20th century, a thriving industrial heartland churned in central and eastern Ukraine, fed by abundant coal mines and big, hulking steel mills. In several parts of the country, these plants still dominate the landscape, the local economy and even civic identity. Iron and steel production remains Ukraine's second-leading industry after agriculture. And prior to the Russian invasion this year, it was a major supplier of iron ore to Turkey, China and parts of the European Union.
While the war with Russia has raised serious international concern about getting Ukraine's vast production of wheat, corn and sunflower oil — normally its top exports — to global markets, the invasion has been even more devastating to the country's metalworks. Exports of bulk iron ore, for instance, that are shipped by the ton in massive cargo vessels have stopped entirely from Ukrainian ports.
Just half of the plant's blast furnaces are on
Inside the sprawling Zaporizhstal industrial compound, the plant's giant blast furnaces normally convert tons of raw iron ore into a stream of molten orange pig iron.
But Serhiy Safonov, the manager of the blast furnace shop, says that only two of the factory's four blast furnaces are currently operational.
The furnaces are designed to run constantly, he says, and normally would never be shut down over their 30-year life span. But earlier this year all four furnaces had to be dialed back to what Safonov calls a "low idle" as Russian troops threatened to advance on Zaporizhzhia. Moscow's forces never reached the area, but tens of thousands of people fled. Much of the city shut down, and the factory that used to employ 11,000 workers is now operating at less than 50% of capacity.
Yuriy Ryzhenkov, the CEO of Metinvest Group, which owns the Zaporizhstal plant, says they have enough raw materials inside Ukraine to keep pumping out rolls of sheet metal and bars of cast iron. The problem is they can't get those products to market. Metinvest and other Ukrainian steel producers now have huge backlogs of processed metal sitting in Ukrainian warehouses.
"The main difficulty is the logistics," Ryzhenkov says. Traditionally, all Ukrainian steel companies, of which Metinvest is the largest, export their products via the Black Sea ports or Azov Sea ports. "At the moment," Ryzhenkov says. "The ports have been blocked by the Russians."
There's no deal for shipping steel
While a few ships carrying grain have been allowed to leave Ukraine recently, there's still no agreement to allow vessels ferrying other goods to transit the Black Sea.
Some steel and iron ore is getting sent by rail to ports in Poland and Romania, but it's a slow and expensive process. Adding to the logistical challenges, Ukraine's railways operate on a different gauge track than the Western Europeans, meaning cargo has to get transferred at the border.
"This was never envisaged as the main export route for the steel industry in Ukraine," Ryzhenkov says.
As difficult as it is to get steel to customers in Turkey, Italy and North Africa, the Zaporizhzhia factory at least is still in Metinvest's hands.
Russian and Moscow-backed separatist forces seized the company's two steel mills in Mariupol. This includes the Azovstal plant, where Ukrainian soldiers made a final stand against the Russian occupation of the city. Russian forces blew apart the mill to capture it and finally take full control of the southern port city.
While Azovstal is now better known, it was actually the smaller of Metinvest's two steel plants in Mariupol. The other, Ilyich Iron and Steel Works, spread over more ground and, with 14,000 employees, had more workers than Azovstal. Ilyich was seized by Russian troops in April. Ukrainian fighters held out at Azovstal until mid-May.
"At some point in time we'll come back to Mariupol and see what is the state of Azovstal and Ilyich mill and see if they can be restored," he says.
The plants were insured, "but insurance doesn't typically cover the wartime risks," he says. "And that's the big problem."
The company's lawyers are looking at ways to file a claim against the Russian Federation for billions of dollars in damages, Ryzhenkov says — but making a shrug, as if it's a longshot.
There isn't a definitive tally of monetary damages in Mariupol, but the human suffering after months of bombardments has been extensive. Ukrainian officials say more than 20,000 civilians were killed in the Russian siege of the city. U.N. officials have documented a lower number of civilian casualties but still estimate the number killed in the city is in the thousands.
With the city under Russian control, Metinvest has urged customers globally not to buy steel from Mariupol. The company says there's a "high probability" that the occupying Russian forces are selling off some of the more than 200,000 tons of steel products Metinvest had stored at its two plants there.
Earlier this year, Metinvest was paying its idled employees two-thirds of their salaries, including at the Mariupol plants now controlled by the Russians. But in June the company had to lay off thousands of workers.
With limited revenue, two of its largest factories gone, and few options to export their industrial products to customers overseas, Ryzhenkov says the company right now is just focused on survival.
"We are making sure that whatever we still have control over we keep intact," he says.
"And we are waiting for Ukraine to kind of win the war and take back what belongs to it." But he's under no illusions that that is going to happen quickly.
Plants and raw materials are behind enemy lines
The challenges facing Metinvest are similar for other Ukrainian steelmakers and industrial firms, particularly in the east of the country.
"There are a number of really problematic trends that will compound over time," says Andrew Lohsen, who up until last year was based in Ukraine as a monitor and an analyst for the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.
"One of them is the fact that these industries are highly dependent on coal that is mined behind enemy lines now or close to the fighting."
He says the industrial capacity of Ukraine right now is severely strained because so much of its manufacturing sector is in or near the intense fighting in eastern Ukraine.
This has been part of the problem for Metinvest. Prior to 2014, Metinvest was based in the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk. When Russian-backed separatists seized Donetsk in 2014, Metinvest relocated its headquarters to Mariupol, a city on the Sea of Azov. This year, when Russia grabbed Mariupol, the headquarters were displaced again, this time moving to the capital, Kyiv.
Ryzhenkov at times sounds weary talking about the impacts of the war, the export bottlenecks, the assets stolen by the Russians, the layoffs. But when asked if the company might be able to somehow restart operations in Mariupol or elsewhere near the fluctuating front lines, he answers quickly.
"The position of our shareholders is very clear on this," he says. "We will not operate in any occupied territory, under any occupational regime." He insists they'll operate only in areas under Ukrainian control.

Former television actress Sana Khan, who shocked everyone last year with her decision to leave Bollywood, turned 35 today. She has acted in 14 films across 5 languages and has appeared in over 50 ad films. She was also a finalist on the reality show Bigg Boss 6 in 2012. The actress tied the knot with Surat-based businessman Anas Sayed soon after bidding farewell to Bollywood.
Recently in one of the recent videos uploaded on Muttawiffy Hujjaj, South Asia’s Instagram handle, Sana spoke her heart out on her drastic life decisions and her willingness to dedicate her life to ‘help humanity and fulfil the command of the creator’.
She said in the video, “In my past life of course I had everything, I had fame, name, money. I could do anything and everything I wanted. But one thing that was missing was ‘peace in my heart’." She further added, “I was like I have everything but why am I not happy? It was very tough and there were days of depression, there were days of Allah’s message that I could see through his signs."
As Sana turns a year older today, here’s a look at her journey so far:
- Sana was born and raised in Mumbai’s Dharavi. Her father is a Malayali Muslim from Kerala’s Kannur and mother, Saeeda, is from Mumbai.
- She debuted with the film ‘Yehi Hai High Society’ in 2005. She then appeared in many advertisements.
- After making special appearances in Hindi films Bombay to Goa and Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal, Sana bagged the lead role in Tamil film Silambattam with actor Silambarasan in 2008. Silambattam did quite well in the box office and Sana grabbed some good projects in South.
- She worked in several Hindi, Tamil, Telugu and Kannada films during her almost 15-year career.
- Sana made her TV debut with Bigg Boss Season 6 where she turned out to be the second runner up.
- She also appeared as a contestant in Khatron Ke Khiladi in 2015 and Kitchen Champion in 2019.
- In 2013, she was declared absconding after she was charged with allegedly kidnapping a 15-year-old who allegedly refused her cousin’s marriage proposal. Sana was arrested a year later along with her then boyfriend Ismail Khan and house help for allegedly threatening and molesting a media consultant.
- Before her marriage with Anas, Sana was in news for her break up with choreographer Melvin Louis and slipping into depression.

PARAMUS, N.J. (AP) — Texas A&M senior Sam Bennett won his third straight match against a player from the top 10 in the amateur world ranking, this one Saturday getting him into the U.S. Amateur championship match with a 1-up victory over Dylan Menante.
All five of Bennett's matches at Ridgewood Country Club have been against players at No. 27 or better in the amateur ranking.
Bennett, No. 3 in the world amateur ranking, now faces Georgia Southern senior Ben Carr, who is No. 70 and won his semifinal match, 3 and 2, over Derek Hitchner.
Bennett never trailed against Menante, who was part of Pepperdine's team that won the NCAA title in 2021 but decided to transfer to North Carolina for his senior year. But it was tight the whole way in a match delayed at the start by storms.
All square at the turn, Bennett appeared to seize control when he won the 10th hole with a par and the 12th hole with a birdie, giving him a 2-up lead with six to play.
But he made bogey after a poor tee on the 14th, and Menante tied the match with a birdie on the par-3 15th hole, only his second birdie of the match.
Both missed birdie chances from about 15 feet on the 16th.
The match turned on the 17th right when Bennett looked to be on the ropes. He hit his drive on the par 5 into the rough with a tree in front of him, restricting his follow-through. He punched out into a bunker and from 178 yards away, hit it clean to about 12 feet.
Menante missed his birdie putt, and Bennett rolled his in, pumping his fist as he took a 1-up lead to the 18th. Menante was in trouble off the tee and could only punch through trees to the collar of the green. Bennett twirled his club after his shot from the fairway, knowing he hit a winner and smiling as the ball settled 12 feet away.
He needed only two putts to win, and his putt settled inches away.
Carr, who has three wins at Georgia Southern, twice trailed on the front nine. He turned the match in his favor with a par on the 11th to take his first lead, and then back-to-back birdies on the 13th and 14th holes for a 3-up lead.
Carr ended the match on the 16th hole.
The finalists get an invitation to play in the Masters and the U.S. Open next year at Los Angeles Country Club, while the winner Sunday also gets into the British Open.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — The Padres are giving reliever Josh Hader a break from the closer role after ninth-inning meltdowns on Thursday and Friday resulted in San Diego losses.
Padres manager Bob Melvin said before Saturday's game against the Washington Nationals that the left-handed Hader would be given time to try to work out his issues.
“We will probably give him a break from that (closer) in the interim here, let him work on some things,” Melvin said. “But, our best team, obviously, is with Josh Hader in the closer’s role and that’s why we got him. So, we will give him a little break for now.”
Melvin said the Padres closer role would be based on matchups game by game, basically closer by committee. With Hader out as closer for now, the role will may likely be shared by Padres right-handers Luis Garcia and Robert Suarez and lefties Adrian Morejon and Nick Martinez.
At 66-56, San Diego enters Saturday’s game battling for the third and final National League wild-card spot. Since the trade deadline, the Padres are 6-10, and 25-32 in their past 57 games.
Hader, who was acquired from Milwaukee on August 1st for four San Diego players, including then Padres closer Taylor Rogers, ha struggled since the move. He has been on the mound when the game-winning run for the opponent has scored in each of his last three appearances, and he has allowed six runs in 3 1/3 innings with San Diego.
“There’s a standard that I hold myself to and that’s not result-based, but more executing pitches and getting into a place where I feel dominant,” Hader said after Friday night’s outing in which he failed to record an out while walking a batter, making a throwing error and surrendering a two-run homer to rookie Alex Call. “All the external things don’t affect anything. I go and do my work ... just continue to move forward, learn from the mistakes.”
After bursting onto the scene a few years ago for his ability to pitch effectively in just about any relief situation, even going multiple innings at times, Hader had been used pretty almost exclusively as a ninth-inning closer with the Brewers since 2020, at his request. The Padres put him in on Thursday with runners on base, which he rarely did the last few years in Milwaukee.
This season, Hader (2-5) has 63 strikeouts in 37 1/3 innings with 29 saves and a 5.30 ERA in 42 games.

Do you have THOUSANDS in forgotten treasures? Here's how to find lost pensions, savings and other valuable assets
What lengths would you go to in order to be reunited with lost cash?
James Howells, from South Wales, is prepared to spend £11million digging up a landfill site to find his missing fortune. The IT engineer threw away a hard drive containing 8,000 Bitcoins ten years ago. The hoard is now worth around £150million, so it is understandable that he is prepared to spend millions to be reunited with the key to his cyber treasure.
The good news for the rest of us is that finding lost assets – forgotten pensions, old bank accounts and investments – is much easier than digging through a decade's worth of landfill. While you won't have misplaced £150 million, there's a good chance you've got a few thousand pounds you've forgotten about.
Hidden treasure: An estimated £50billion is sitting in forgotten accounts in the UK
An estimated £50billion is sitting in forgotten accounts in the UK. The majority – around £37billion – is locked away in pensions. The rest is spread across investments, savings, bank accounts, insurance policies and premium bonds.
'With the cost of living crisis, the though of getting this dormant, lost and unclaimed money back into the hands of the consumer is more important than ever before,' says Duncan Stevens, chief executive of Gretel, a new website designed to help you find your cash.
Rediscovering lost assets is a straightforward process, but you should act fast if you want to use the simplest approach as the Unclaimed Assets Register closes later this month. Credit reference company Experian, which has operated it for 20 years, says it is no longer a key part of its business.
The closure is a big blow for people wanting a one-stop way to find assets. In particular, it badly affects executors of estates who often face a battle to track down all of a deceased person's accounts and assets so as to pass them on to beneficiaries. For £25, you can use the register to hunt through 4.5million records from around 80 financial providers.
However, the register has limitations. It only searches companies linked to Experian, so it isn't an exhaustive hunt. If you want to be certain you haven't got a lost asset anywhere, you need to put in a little bit of legwork. Thankfully, you do not need to pay anything to search for forgotten accounts.
Here's how to be reunited with all your different assets without spending a penny.
Track down income for retirement
Your most likely lost asset is a pension. On average, the value of an unclaimed pension fund is around £23,000.
Helen Morrissey, senior analyst at wealth manager Hargreaves Lansdown, says it is not surprising that pensions are often mislaid. She says: 'People are likely to change jobs several times over the course of their career and have a pension with each employer they have worked for.'
She adds: 'Over time, it's easy to lose track of these pensions. Someone may move house and forget to update their contact details. This means they could risk losing out on valuable retirement income which could amount to thousands of pounds.'
Reuniting yourself with a lost pension is straightforward. The Government provides a free pension tracing service at gov.uk/findpension-contact-details.
This uses your employment history or the name of your original pension provider to give you up-to-date contact details for companies that now oversee them. You then need to contact the companies to discover if they have a pension in your name.
Morrissey says: 'Making sure you update your contact details with your various pensions each time you move will help you keep on top of matters. Having a full picture of your pension wealth means you can plan ahead with more confidence and make better informed retirement decisions.'
Find old savings and investment accounts
To find forgotten savings, you can use service My Lost Account. Operated by UK Finance, the Building Societies Association and NS&I, this service searches most banks and building societies to check if they have accounts in your name. You just need to provide your name – and any previous names – and any former home addresses.
If the search turns up any forgotten Premium Bonds, go to the NS&I website to check if you have any unclaimed prizes. There is an estimated £74million of unclaimed Premium Bond prizes. You could have anything from £25 to £100,000 waiting for you.
If on the hunt for lost investments, you can use the Investment Association's Unclaimed Assets Portal while the Association of Investment Companies can help you find lost money held in investment trusts. Also, if you think you held shares in an individual company, contact the outfit directly.
Finding an old life insurance policy is more difficult. You can't tap your details in anywhere to see if there is a policy in your name. Instead, an option is the Policy Detective website which has the latest contact details for the company you think your policy is with. Next, you must contact the company directly to see if your policy is still in force.
With the Unclaimed Assets Register closing, consider tapping your full name and address history into Gretel, a free service that aims to replicate what the register was doing. It will hunt through its database for matches.
It is a new platform and is still adding financial providers, so even if you find nothing on the first go, check again in the future when new accounts are added.

A GROUP, the Progressive Ambassadors for APC Project, has attacked presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Atiku Abubakar and his Labour Party (LP) counterpart, Peter Obi.

“We know Atiku; he has been contesting since 1999. I think he is desperate to become the president – Nigerians should watch out for him.
“We don’t want such a person to oversee the affairs of Nigeria. Tinubu has the capacity to deliver and win in any zone, even in the north-east.
“We are not afraid of Obi. He is a bird of the same feather as Atiku. They are desperate politicians jumping from one party to another. Obi is a smaller case for us because politics is not played in social media. We call him a social media President.”
On the controversy generated by the All Progressives Congress Muslim-Muslim ticket, the group said Nigerians of “the 21st century should be looking at competence in terms of choosing their leaders” and not religion.
“We have the person Bola Tinubu who is coming from the South and we have Kashim Shettima who is coming from the North. These people have been tested in several levels of governance and they have shown competence.
“That ticket will fly because we need people that will bring good roads to us, create employment and give us basic amenities. Nigerians should look beyond religion and ethnicity.”

KING ABDULLAH SPORTS CITY, Saudi Arabia (AP) — Oleksandr Usyk kissed the blue-and-yellow flag of Ukraine and looked to the Saudi Arabian sky as he waited to discover if he had honored his war-torn country by retaining his world heavyweight titles.
When he heard the winning words “and still,” an emotional Usyk raised his left arm and pulled the flag over his face.
Six months ago, he was patrolling the streets of Kyiv with an automatic rifle and defending Ukraine from the invading Russians.
Here, inside the ring at King Abdullah Sport City arena, the still-undefeated Usyk had lived up to his billing as the sporting pride of Ukraine by beating Anthony Joshua in a closely fought rematch on Saturday to keep his WBA, WBO and IBF belts.
“I devote this victory to my country, to my family, to my team, to all the military defending this country,” the 35-year-old Usyk said through a translator. “Thank you very, very much.”
After a grueling five-month training camp, Usyk entered the arena in a blue-and-yellow top carrying the words “Colors of Freedom” and supported by words of encouragement from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in his nightly video address to the nation.
“We stick together,” the president said. “We help each other. We restore what was destroyed. We fight for all our people. And we cheer for those who represent Ukraine, today — definitely for Usyk, our guy!”
And Usyk started as the favorite after outclassing Joshua in the first fight in London in September last year.
However, the British challenger, a former two-time champion, came into the rematch with a new game plan from his new trainer Robert Garcia: Attack Usyk’s body and keep the pressure on.
And it nearly worked, with Usyk taken to the limit in the ninth round as he was chased around the ring by Joshua, who landed combinations and targeted Usyk’s ribs.
Usyk took a deep breath at the bell, then came out hard in the 10th round, hurting Joshua with an early right hook and forcing him onto the ropes for the first time in the fight.
The battering of Joshua was sustained in the 11th while the 12th was evenly fought, the fight ending with both fighters — clearly exhausted — falling to their knees in front of each other on the canvas.
They embraced and Joshua appeared to offer his help to the plight of Ukraine.
Then, in an expletive-laden speech inside the ring after grabbing the microphone, Joshua — who moments earlier was seen picking up two of Usyk’s belts and throwing them to the canvas — hit back at his critics before praising Usyk for fighting so well in the circumstances.
“I was studying Ukraine and all the champions from your amazing country,” Joshua said. “I’ve never been there. What’s happening there, I don’t know but it’s not nice. For Usyk to be champion, under those circumstances, please raise your hands.”
Usyk was complimentary about Joshua, too.
“This is already history,” he said. “Many generations are going to watch this fight, especially the round when someone tried to beat me hard. But I stood up to it and turned it in a different way.”
Usyk also claimed the Ring Magazine belt with the win. There’s only one heavyweight title that Usyk doesn’t own — the WBC one that is about to be vacated by Tyson Fury, who says he is retired.
When asked about Fury, Usyk said: “I am sure Tyson Fury is not retired yet. I am sure Tyson Fury wants to fight me. If I’m not fighting Tyson Fury, I’m not fighting at all.”
Two judges gave it to Usyk, one 115-113 and the other 116-112. The other gave the fight to Joshua, 115-113.
Joshua, a two-time heavyweight champion, fell to his third loss in 27 fights and his career is at a crossroads.
Where Usyk goes from now appears to depend on Fury.
Saudi state television published photographs showing Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman attending the fight. The 36-year-old son of King Salman, the crown prince has pushed for sporting events to come to the kingdom even as U.S. intelligence agencies believe he ordered the beheading and dismemberment of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi.

Malone cruises to second straight US gymnastics title
Brody Malone cruised to his second national gymnastics title on Saturday night to cement his status atop the American men’s program with the Paris Olympics less than two years away.
The 22-year-old Malone posted a two-day total of 176.950, more than five points ahead of longtime national team member Donnell Whittenburg in second and teenager Asher Hong in third.
An Olympian for the first time last summer and a bronze medalist on the high bar at the world championships last fall, Malone has quickly grown comfortable as the standard-bearer for the U.S. men, a mantle he accepted following three-time Olympian Sam Mikulak’s retirement after the Tokyo Games.
Malone wasn’t quite as crisp on Saturday night as he was on Thursday when he took a massive five-point lead on the rest of the field, but it hardly mattered.
Spectacular on high bar and steady and efficient everywhere else, Malone competes with an unruffled poise. At times it’s difficult to tell whether he’s in the middle of a major meet or just riffing at the end of practice.
Malone’s triumph automatically earned him a spot on the 2022 world championship team. He’ll be joined in Liverpool, England, this fall by a resurgent Whittenburg.
The 28-year-old, a four-time world championship team member but never an Olympian, considered retirement at the end of 2021. He ultimately decided to press on, saying his body was too healthy for him to move on to the next chapter of his life.
Buoyed a bit by a bonus system designed to reward gymnasts for attempting more difficult elements, the powerfully built Whittenburg posted the top score on still rings and took second on vault. He still seemed destined to have to sweat out the world championship team selection camp in October until Hong saw a largely brilliant meet end with a sloppy set on high bar that dropped him from second to third, costing him one of the two automatic berths on the world team.
The 18-year-old Hong, who will join Malone at Stanford when classes begin in late September, still provided a compelling case that he should join his soon-to-be teammate in England too. Hong took first on vault, second on floor and third on rings.

TACOMA, Wash., Feb. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The demand for part-time and flexible hour employees across the U.S. is rising as companies look to fill gaps created by a worker shortage and the resulting difficulty in finding full-time employees. The number of job postings seeking part-time and flexible hour employees has jumped 13% in the last 30 days, with some jobs seeing an increase of as much as 3,000%, according to a new job posting analysis by staffing company PeopleReady.
Part-time and flexible hour jobs now account for nearly 18% of all job postings as companies throughout the U.S. grapple with current workforce challenges to keep business moving forward.

- 3,168% increase in newly posted jobs for pickup and delivery drivers
- 963% for sales associates

- 388% for trash collectors
"When there are major workforce fluctuations, temporary workers become even more vital in helping businesses stay flexible while meeting demand," said Taryn Owen, president and COO, PeopleReady and PeopleScout. "In addition to working with more businesses to connect them with a contingent workforce, we have seen a steady increase in the number of people looking for part-time and flexible hour work."

The Philadelphia Union earned another massive victory over D.C. United on Saturday night, earning a 6-0 win on the road. Elevated by goals from Daniel Gazdag, Mikael Uhre, Cory Burke, and Julian Carranza, the Union rebounded after a tough loss in Dallas on Wednesday.
D.C. United came out of the gate firing, developing some of the better chances of the match in the first 20 minutes. Taxi Fountas was active in the box, and forced some impressive saves from Andre Blake to keep the game even early.
As the match progressed, Philadelphia began to gain more possession and more momentum. Carranza created the best chances, with a shot that Rafael Romo stopped close to the net, and another shot that just arched over the goal.
Eventually, Uhre was able to find the game’s difference, as he neatly beat the D.C. defense to tuck the ball into United’s net.

A few minutes later, Uhre drew a penalty after a video review, which set Gazdag up to a penalty shot to give the Union a two-goal lead going into the second half.
The Union came out of the break firing, as Carranza scored the goal that he had been looking for earlier in the match. A beautiful curler from the Argentinian put the visitors up by three, as D.C.’s hopes for a revenge match fell away.

If the game wasn’t already over, Burke’s efforts put it away. The Jamaican won the ball near D.C.’s corner, then worked the ball into the box, collected a pass, and shot toward net. While Burke’s shot hit the post, the ball fell to Carranza, who scored his second goal of the evening.
Soon after, Carranza struck again, as he won the ball with Romo off his line. All Carranza had to do with pass the ball toward net, and the Union had a five-goal lead.
Cory Burke then followed up with a rocket of a shot past Romo at the near post, as Philly now was up by six goals on the road.

Though much progress has been made, healthcare equity for people of color in the US still has a long way to go, says Paul Ford, Founder and President of DS9 Capital. One area that particularly needs work—pharmaceutical research.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (PRWEB) February 16, 2022
According to recent census figures, the US is diversifying faster than predicted, with nearly 40% of the population now identifying with a race or ethnic group other than white.(1) The base of patients who participate in clinical trials of new drugs, however, still skews heavily white—in some cases, 80 to 90%.(2) This, notes Paul Ford, founder and president of DS9 Capital, is a serious problem. "Given the physiological differences between one ethnic group and another," says Ford, "how is a person of color to know whether a new medicine will be effective for them?"
Clinical trials have historically tended to take place in larger cities and in close proximity to major medical research organizations. Some 50% of FDA trials are in fact conducted within one to two percent of all US zip codes.(3) This, says Ford, plus the need for subjects with the time, and resources, and providers who have knowledge of clinical trials to participate in a clinical trial, have helped contribute to the over-representation of non-ethnic minority participants in such trials and even preceding that stage in discovery.
Cultural competency
Championing equity in healthcare, says Ford, leads to a focus on cultural competency, where providers offer services that meet the unique socio-economic, cultural, and linguistic needs of their patients. The ability of healthcare providers to offer services that complements the characteristics of their patients, he notes, leads to better care for diverse populations, improved health outcomes, improved health literacy, and inclusivity.
An example of socio-economic competency in the realm of pharmaceutical dispensation, says Ford, is Orchestra Rx, a prescription drug management company focused on helping un/underinsured, underrepresented populations gain access to affordable and appropriate pharmaceuticals through its programs made available to individual patients, employers and health plans. One of the missions of Orchestra Rx, he says, is to strengthen representation of people of color in the research and development activities of pharma and biosciences companies, leading to greater efficacy, more treatment options, and better access to healthcare, with the aim of improving health outcomes and quality of life for the under-represented.
Pioneers
The US healthcare system is inequitable, as Ford explains, and more effort is needed to ensure that people of color receive adequate information on medications and healthcare—which is part of Orchestra Rx's mission. Perhaps a way to address this gap is by looking at the past and how pioneering people of color dealt with and rose above this situation.
February, notes Ford, is Black History Month. The theme for 2022 is Black Health and Wellness and focuses on the strides healthcare and healthcare practitioners have made and are making in the black community.(4) It seems particularly appropriate, he says, to acknowledge the accomplishments of three pioneers: James McCune Smith, Rebecca Lee Crumpler, and Jocelyn Elders.
● James McCune Smith (1813-1865), denied admission to American colleges because of his race, attended the University of Glasgow in Scotland, where he earned three degrees, including an M.D., by the age of 24. When he returned to his native New York City, he established his own pharmacy and office at 93 Broadway, making him the first African American doctor with his own practice in the United States.(5)
● Rebecca Lee Crumpler (1831-1895) graduated from the New England Female Medical College in 1864, making her the first black female physician in the United States; that same year, she opened a practice in Boston. Her Book of Medical Discourses was one of the first medical publications by an African American.(5)
● Jocelyn Elders (b. 1933), a vice admiral in the Public Health Services Commissioned Corps, was the second woman and first African American to serve as United States Surgeon General. She is currently a professor emerita of pediatrics at the University of Arkansas for Medical Science.(6)
When we look back at pioneers like Drs. Smith, Crumpler, and Elders, says Ford, and then look around us at the state of inclusiveness in US healthcare in 2022, it is clear that there is still much to be done. "The good news," he says, "is that with determination it is all possible. We simply need more diversity in clinical trials, more research and information on drug interactions for people of color, and more participation from today's leaders."

AMN Healthcare AMN, the leader and innovator in total talent solutions for healthcare organizations across the nation, today announced it was named among America's Best Employers for 2022 by Forbes Magazine.
"We are delighted to be included in this list of prestigious and dynamic companies that have been identified by their own team members as the best employers in the nation," said Susan Salka, President and CEO of AMN Healthcare. "We strive to be an employer of choice and are thrilled by the strong validation by our team members that inclusion on this list implies."
Forbes' list of America's Best Employers for 2022 was derived from a survey of over 60,000 employees working for companies with at least 1,000 people. Conducted anonymously, the survey asked employees if they would recommend their companies to friends and family based on a scale from 0 to ten, with ten indicating they would definitely recommend their employer. The survey also was based on statements and ratings employees provided regarding topics such as salaries, working conditions, opportunities for advancement and the image of their companies.
A key driver of the high ratings AMN Healthcare received from its team members, Salka believes, is the company's longstanding commitment to diversity and inclusion. Sixty-seven percent of AMN Healthcare's team members are women while 36% are people of color. In addition, AMN Healthcare has made a strong commitment to team member support and retention during Covid-19, according to Salka.

BROOMFIELD, Colo., Feb. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Noodles & Company, NDLS the national fast-casual brand known for serving globally inspired dishes made fresh to order, launched today two bold, craveable salads to its menu at all 450 nationwide locations. Noodles tested these new flavor-packed fresh salads last summer at select locations, and after overwhelming approval by guests, the new Asian Apple Citrus Salad with Chicken and Mexican Street Corn Salad with Chicken are here to stay.
The introduction of these two new salads complement Noodles' current salad line-up, which includes Grilled Chicken Caesar and The Med Salad with Chicken.
Fresh Craveable Flavors
"Noodles truly has something on the menu for everyone, and with the expansion of our salad options, we now have even more delicious options to meet our guests' lifestyle and health goals," said Nick Graff, vice president of culinary and executive chef at Noodles & Company. "While we have long been known for our noodles, our salads have gained a strong following over the years, and I think these two new options will have even more people discovering just how craveable veggies can be. And we're so confident that our guests will love them that we have created a Goodness Guarantee — if an order is ever not quite what the guest expected, bring it back and we'll replace it. That's our guarantee."
Noodles & Company's fresh new salads unleash the goodness of veggies with flavorful ingredients:
- Asian Apple Citrus Salad with Chicken – Tuscan greens and kale mix tossed in a ginger citrus dressing with grilled chicken, diced apple, cucumber, and slaw made from broccoli, carrots, and red cabbage. Topped with fresh avocado, crispy chow mein noodles, and black sesame seeds.
- Mexican Street Corn Salad with Chicken – Tuscan greens and kale mix tossed in cotija cheese dressing with grilled chicken, roasted corn, Roma tomato and topped with avocado, feta, chipotle cheddar tortilla strips, and cilantro.
Something for Everyone
From lighter veggie noodle options to classic dishes such as Wisconsin Mac & Cheese and Pesto Cavatappi, Noodles has something for every lifestyle and dietary preference. All dishes at Noodles can be customized, allowing guests to easily substitute zoodles and cauliflower noodles into their favorite dish or to go all out by adding more fresh veggies, extra sauce, double protein, and so much more. Noodles also offers its famed Wisconsin Mac & Cheese as a side, making it the perfect option for guests craving a salad and a little indulgence on the side, too.
For guests looking to accommodate a certain dietary lifestyle, Noodles offers a nutrition calculator that is easy to navigate and available to help guests meet their nutrition-related goals, needs, and preferences.
Goodness Guarantee
Noodles is proud to extend its Goodness Guarantee to the new salads, which allows guests to step out of their comfort zones without worrying about trying new flavors. If they don't love the dish they ordered, it can be exchanged for a different dish at no cost. All the goodness of Noodles' fresh new salads are 100% guaranteed, as are all the dishes on Noodles' menu.

VOLINIA TOWNSHIP, Mich. — The Cass County Sheriff’s Office says five people were hospitalized Saturday evening after a three-vehicle crash.
Deputies responded to the intersection of Marcellus Highway and Decatur Road in Volinia Township around 6 p.m. Saturday.
They say a woman from Elkhart stopped at a stop sign before driving into the intersection, but when she did, she hit another vehicle, driven by a man from Marcellus.
Then, while trying to turn, a woman from Three Rivers was hit by the other two cars.
All three drivers were taken to the hospital, along with both passengers in the third vehicle.
The extent of their injuries is not yet clear. | https://www.fox17online.com/news/local-news/south-mi/5-hospitalized-after-cass-co-3-vehicle-crash | 2022-08-21T03:46:20Z | https://www.fox17online.com/news/local-news/south-mi/5-hospitalized-after-cass-co-3-vehicle-crash | false | null |
A lengthy weather delay didn’t get in Vasek Pospisil’s way in quarterfinal action Friday night.
The Vernon tennis player faced off against former world No. 6 Gilles Simon of France on Aug. 19 — more than 90 minutes behind schedule due to rain — and earned a spot in the Odlum Brown VanOpen semifinals.
The 32-year-old was dominant in the opening set, winning 6-1. The second set was more closely contested with Simon pushing it to 5-5 before Pospisil took control of the last two games of the match.
The match, which was supposed to start at 7:30 p.m., took more than two hours and wrapped up just 15 minutes before midnight pacific time.
Pospisil, who now lives in Vancouver, said he had more gas in the tank this time around than in his previous match against Australia’s Jordan Thompson.
“I’m feeling a lot better today than the other day, that’s for sure. It’s still really physical, (the temperature) was cool, but obviously fielding all the points and playing so many balls, it’s really hard work out here and I’m sweating like an animal,” the 2013 VanOpen champion said post-match. “I’m just going to try and rest and get ready for (the semifinal) tomorrow.”
Pospisil will face another French national in the semifinals, world No. 64 Arthur Rinderknech, in the first meeting between the two. Rinderknech, the tournament’s third seed, punched his semifinals ticket with a win versus the defending VanOpen champion, Ricardas Berankis of Lithuania, in straight sets.
Pospisil and Rinderknech will get their match underway today (Aug. 20) at 3:20 p.m.

Jack Phillips was well versed in the history of Texas Ranger J.P., that was born in 1968, having described him as one of the most famous of that breed of cattle.
In a story titled “The Seven Families of Texas Longhorns” that originally appeared in Texas Longhorn Trails, he told an interviewer that the bull’s mother was a typical, long-bodied Longhorn cow named Brazos Belle 182, who had both a long body and long legs, and was a pale red-and-white spotted cow with horns that came straight out, then bowed a bit, and had no twist.
This typical Phillips foundation cow had been sired by Two Tone, an old spotted Winston bull that Phillips described as “strictly a Phillips foundation bull.”
When J.P. was about a year old, he was long and slender, tall and had horns that came out straighter than most yearlings, and by the time he reached the age of two years, his horns were still reaching out laterally from his head, Phillips remembered.
When Darol Dickinson came to Phillips’ ranch and bought some cattle, he picked this two-year-old bull, Phillips said, noting that it had been Dickinson who made the bull famous throughout the world, then added, “I’ve given Darol the credit all the time, and I still do.”
Phillips added he got J.P. on loan after having agreed to buy six of Darol’s cows as part of the deal. The bull was not only on Phillips’ ranch in 1972, and remained there for three breeding seasons, but Phillips also had permission to collect semen from the bull.
In the period from 1972-74, Phillips sold semen from Texas Ranger at the price of $3.80 per unit to those who purchased at least a hundred units.
He noted that when the Texas Longhorn Breeders Association of America initiated artificial insemination certification in 1972, Texas Ranger was the first bull certified. During the time the bull remained at Dickinson’s, the animal sired 54 offspring.
This was “just the start of a Longhorn circle ‘Who’s Who “that included Texas Freckles, Ranger’s Show Boy, Texas Lin, Ranger’s Big ‘Un, Thingamajig Ranger, Archer’s Pepper, Texas Measles, Mr. Texas, Ranger’s Andera, Big Sky, Ranger’s Double, Cactus Ranger, Roan Ranger, Red’s Boy, Zorro Ranger, Texas Star, Forest Ranger, Texas Ramrod, and Texas Scrambler, he added.
He noted that by the time Ranger was returned to Phillips in 1974, the animal had developed into a nice-bodied bull, which he said was partially due to Darol’s having fed him.
He had grown into “a nice-bodied bull,” and had filled out in his hindquarter, with a lot of flesh on him, even though he never had the deep round of modern beef cattle breeds.
“Every time somebody came here to buy heifers or bulls, they always picked his calves, because they stood out in a group, “ Darol said.
After Darol had used the bull for several years, and he had sired a great many calves, including Texas Ranger, Jr., Lone Ranger, Royal Ranger, Texas Toro, Ranger’s Dividend, Pecos Bill, Ranger’s Measles, Twisty Matilda, Texas Traveler, Ranger’s Bouncer, Colorado Ranger, Cheetah, Jessie James and Ranger’s Lady, Texas Ranger contracted black lung disease, which was then common along the Texas coast.
The would-be buyers included Terry Kelsey of Ramah, Colorado, to whom Phillips agreed to lease Tex, in the hope that the change of climate might be beneficial to the bull’s health.
By the time Kelsey arrived to take the bull, though, it was too ill even to stand for any length of time. They put the ailing animal into a trailer filled with hay where it lay down on the trip back to Colorado.
There, after weeks of intensive care, the bull was once again standing, and was able to breed Terry’s cows and to be collected for his valuable semen.
With the bull’s recuperation, the breeding program there exploded, with Terry noting that Tex “crossed well on more cows than any other bulls,” and was a super cross with a Wichita cow.
Terry noted that although they had previously had a program with a definite goal in their Longhorn breeding, but after obtaining Tex, “Our program exploded.”
Tex crossed well with more cows than did other bulls, he said, adding that he had never seen a Wichita cow this bull wouldn’t cross with.
In 1980, when he was twelve years old, Texas Ranger J.P. died on Kelsey’s ranch, with his legacy still considered to be an important part of many herds of Longhorn cattle.
This bloodline is still among those included in the cattle being raised to Jack Phillips’s standards on the Battle Island Ranch in West Columbia, as well as in Longhorn herds elsewhere.

CBI bars Manish Sisodia from travelling abroad, issues LOC
Updated on: 4 minutes ago
New Delhi: The Central Bureau of Investigation on Sunday issued Look Out Circular (LOC) against Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia and 12 others who were named in the Delhi Excise Policy scam, sources said. Earlier on Friday, the CBI had raided the residence of Manish Sisodia and other locations over allegations of irregularities and corruption in the new liquor policy drafted by the Delhi government.
Manish Sisodia who was recently lauded for his reforms in school education in Delhi also handles the Excise Department. Soon after the development, Sisodia on Monday took a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi by posting a video of Modi's speech on Twitter wherein he is heard saying that CBI is being misused to target innocent people. Along with the video the Delhi Deputy Chief Minister also wrote a caption in Hindi which roughly translates to, "Seasons keep changing slowly. However, your speed has surprised even the winds."
The CBI on Saturday summoned Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia among others for questioning in the corruption case related to the implementation of the Delhi Excise Policy.

HAMPTON, N.H. (AP) — A Massachusetts woman’s diamond wedding ring, a family heirloom, is back on her finger after a man with a metal detector responded to her social media plea for help and found it at the bottom of the ocean.
Francesca Teal told The Boston Globe that she was tossing a football with her husband this month at North Beach in Hampton, New Hampshire, when the ring that once belonged to her great-grandmother slipped off her finger.
They couldn’t find the ring in the water after hours of searching, the 29-year-old from Groveland said.
Teal posted about the ordeal on Facebook and asked anyone who might frequent the beach with a metal detector to be on the lookout. Her post was shared thousands of times and got the attention of a man named Lou Asci.
Asci, 60 of Marshfield, put on a wetsuit and headlamp and went into the water searching for the ring with his metal detector. The first two days he went looking, he had no luck.
“I don’t take failure all too well,” Asci told the newspaper. “I wanted to go back and give it one last shot.”
That’s when he found the ring buried beneath the sandy ocean floor, he said. He sent Teal a picture, writing in a message: “Please tell me this is the ring so I can finally get off this beach.”
Asci returned the ring to Teal’s home, and her husband got on one knee to place it back on her finger.
“I have been so overwhelmed by the kindness of strangers this past week,” Teal wrote on Facebook. “It has been so amazing to witness humanity in this positive way & has brought so much faith to myself & others.” | https://www.mypanhandle.com/news/viral-news/metal-detecting-stranger-retrieves-womans-ring-lost-in-sea/ | 2022-08-21T04:11:07Z | https://www.mypanhandle.com/news/viral-news/metal-detecting-stranger-retrieves-womans-ring-lost-in-sea/ | false | 36 |
Cannonier makes next step
This was another landmark day in the burgeoning career of Oakley Cannonier.
Having made brief outings from the bench in the opening two games of the season, the 18-year-old forward was given his first Premier League 2 start with Layton Stewart suspended following his red card at Brighton and Hove Albion last weekend.
The eagerness of Cannonier - who netted 33 goals in competitive matches for the under-18s last season - to make an early impression was evident, the striker not quite managing to gain a proper connection with a header and then hurriedly missing his kick from a low cross.

There were some good signs, particularly in the first half when setting up Max Woltman during an attack after some good hold-up play, but his diminutive stature was glaringly apparent when dwarfed by giant Blackburn Rovers centre-backs Jalil Saadi and George Pratt.
That size differential is something to which Cannonier must adjust, along with the physical demands. A quieter second-half display ended with a shot over the bar from range before being replaced with what appeared to be cramp. The youngster now has a better idea of what to expect at this higher level.
Cain is able - but what next?
The exception in an otherwise young Liverpool starting line-up against Blackburn was Jake Cain. The only player out of his teens, Cain returned to the Reds in the summer having spent a season on loan at League Two side Newport County, for whom he made 28 appearances.
While the attacking midfielder recently admitted he would like another temporary spell away having been disappointed at being overlooked for first-team involvement during pre-season, for now he continues to turn out in Premier League 2 with his attitude having been praised by U21s boss Barry Lewtas.
Cain, skippering the team, was quietly effective in his third successive start, and in general demonstrated the experience accrued during his spell playing regular senior football. And he almost contributed a goal, twice denied by Blackburn goalkeeper Aidan Dowling from 25-yard free-kicks.
With his old Academy midfielder partner Leighton Clarkson already making his mark on loan at Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership - he scored the only goal in Saturday's 1-0 win at St Johnstone with a blistering free-kick of his own - Cain has further incentive to test himself elsewhere.
And with interest from a number of clubs, it would be a surprise to see him still turning out for Liverpool after deadline day.
Mabaya learning as Chambers shines
There were differing fortunes for four Academy players who were invited on the pre-season tour to Thailand and Singapore.
Midfielders Stefan Bajcetic and Bobby Clark, who were on the bench for the first team against Crystal Palace on Monday, featured for the first 45 minutes only against Blackburn, suggesting they will again be involved on Monday at Manchester United by Jurgen Klopp, who joined assistant manager Pep Lijnders, elite development coach Vitor Matos and goalkeeping coach John Achterberg in watching part of the game from the sidelines.
Left-back Luke Chambers began the game strongly and was a constant first-half threat with his deliveries into the box, while managing to contain pesky winger Ethan Walker.
Isaac Mabaya, though, found matters a little more difficult on the other side of the defence, with his inexperience at times showing having, along with so many in the team, only made the step up to U21 level this summer, and was bailed out by goalkeeper Harvey Davies after one mistake allowed Blackburn forward Sam Burns to race clean through.
But his perseverance was rewarded when winning the ball in an advanced position to initiate the attack for Max Woltman's winning goal.

MIAMI (AP) — A former Miami congressman who signed a $50 million consulting contract with Venezuela’s socialist government not only did no apparent work, but also channeled a large chunk of the money to a yacht company on behalf of a fugitive billionaire, according to new allegations in a civil suit.
The accusations against former Congressman David Rivera come in a new filing Friday in New York federal court by opponents of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro who now control the U.S.-based affiliates of the South American nation’s state oil company.
Rivera’s Interamerican Consulting was sued in 2020 by PDV USA — a Delaware-based affiliate of Venezuelan-owned Citgo. It alleges Rivera performed no work for the $50 million contract he signed in 2017 for three months of “strategic consulting” meant to build bridges with key U.S. stakeholders.
The same contract has been the subject of an ongoing criminal investigation by federal prosecutors in Miami looking into, among other things, whether Rivera failed to register as a foreign lobbyist as required bv law.
Rivera has not been charged with any crime, but the new filings give a detailed look at his dealings with Venezuela’s state-run oil industry and how he allegedly spent the money he received.
Around the same time Rivera was hired, Maduro’s government had launched a charm offensive to curry favor with the Trump administration. It initially avoided outright criticism of the new U.S. leader and even donated $500,000 to his inaugural committee through Citgo.
The new court filing is based on evidence only recently uncovered by PDV USA’s attorneys, including 18,000 text and WhatsApp messages from Rivera’s phone and statements he made during a two-day deposition in July.
Rivera received only $15 million of the original amount, but the new filing says he spent part of that on unexplained payments to a convicted drug trafficker and to a company managing yachts on behalf of a Venezuelan TV magnate wanted for arrest by U.S. authorities.
“Mr. Rivera never provided any services to Citgo and, it appears, never intended to do so,” according to the filing by PDV USA. “Instead, the true purpose of the agreement was to cover up illicit transactions.”
Rivera did not reply to a request for comment, but he has maintained his innocence and has countersued PDV USA alleging breach of contract and unjust enrichment for its failure to pay $30 million he says he is still owed.
According to the filing, in one exchange of messages with Raul Gorrin — a Maduro insider who owns Venezuela’s largest private TV network — Rivera discussed trying to set up a meeting between Venezuela’s foreign minister and executives from the U.S. oil company Exxon.
The new filing cites a message in which Rivera and Gorrin texted one another that “the concert ticket is $15, not 20, as we said last night” — wording PDV USA’s lawyers call a “clear reference to a bribe.”
“At deposition, Mr. Rivera was unable to explain what this text message meant, and testified that he did not remember attending any concerts at that time,” PDV USA stated in its filing. It did not say who a bribe might have been meant for and the meeting never took place.
Rivera had asked the court to shield his communications with Gorrin, who the U.S. alleges was the mastermind of a conspiracy to siphon $1.2 billion from PDVSA — Venezuela’s state oil company. Gorrin is a lawyer, though not licensed to practice in the United States, and a judge in June ruled that Rivera’s communications with him did not meet the threshold for attorney-client privilege and must be handed over as part of what’s known as discovery.
Of the $15 million that Rivera received, about 75% was transferred to other individuals, according to the new filing. Around $3.75 million was transferred to a Miami company, Interglobal Yacht Management. Rivera claimed the money was an expense for services under the contract. PDV USA alleges instead it was used to pay for maintenance on one of Gorrin’s superyachts.
Similar amounts went to Esther Nuhfer, who is described as a longtime political associate of Rivera, as well as Hugo Perera, a Miami developer who pleaded guilty to tax fraud in a massive drug-smuggling case in the 1990s against the feared Cali Cartel.
Rivera testified that the payments were referral fees and for assistance he received as part of the consulting contract, according to PDV USA.’s account. But the new anti-Maduro management claims PDV USA never gave Rivera permission to outsource the work, as was expressly required by the consulting agreement.
To justify the large payments, PDV USA alleges Rivera created “phony contracts” backdated to March 20, 2017 — the day before the consulting agreement took effect.
Interglobal declined to sign the backdated contract, saying it had not performed that sort of subcontractor service.
“In short, PDV USA received nothing from Interamerican in exchange for making payments of $15 million,” the plaintiffs allege. “Most of that sum was transferred to third parties that are either indicted fugitives from justice or under criminal investigation in connection with those payments.”
The filing also alleges that other payments, deducted as expenses by Interamerican, were in reality moved between accounts controlled by Rivera. The new filings allege that Rivera’s own accountant testified in a deposition after meeting with criminal investigators from the Internal Revenue Service that he believed his client had committed tax fraud.
The consulting contract had all the hallmarks of a sham, according to PDV USA. Rivera’s Interamerican made just $9,500 in the year prior to signing the multimillion-dollar deal.
The lawsuit claims the company then controlled by Maduro loyalists hired Interamerican out of the blue, without due diligence, and that Rivera never met in person with anyone from Citgo or PDV USA while supposedly working on its behalf. Instead, he filed two “deficient and incoherent” progress reports of the seven he was required to submit.
“The written record is bereft of any evidence that Interamerican performed any of the contracted services,” PDV USA argues in the new filings. “There is not a single email, a single PowerPoint presentation, a single outline, a single memorandum, a single calendar entry, or anything else suggesting that Interamerican ever performed any of the services.”
Rivera, a Republican, served a single term in Congress, in 2011-2013, and during that time honored Venezuelan exiles fleeing socialist rule and cosponsored legislation seeking to withhold funding from the Organization of American States until it confronted then President Hugo Chávez for allegedly violating Venezuela’s constitution.
While serving as a state legislator, he shared a house in Tallahassee with now-Sen. Marco Rubio, who was the state House speaker at the time. Rivera has been embroiled in several election-related controversies since then, including orchestrating the stealth funding of an obscure Democratic candidate to take on his main rival in a South Florida congressional race. Last year, he was fined $456,000 for violating campaign finance laws in connection to that plot.

Vanderbilt Strengthens Artistic Collaboration with Nashville Shakespeare Festival
Vanderbilt faculty expertise and collaborations will enhance two Nashville Shakespeare Festival/Kennie Playhouse Theatre productions— Cymbeline and Gem of the Ocean —which open Aug. 18 and 25, respectively, at oneC1TY . In mid-September, both shows will move to Academy Park in Franklin, Tennessee, for one weekend.
Leah Lowe , associate professor of theatre, is directing William Shakespeare’s Cymbeline , the story of a king in ancient Britain who arranges for his daughter to marry his arrogant stepson. She defies her father’s plan and weds a poor but worthy ward of her family. “ Cymbeline is an epic adventure that has it all—a gutsy princess, evil stepmother, handsome hero, dastardly villain, two kidnapped sons and a war between Britain and Rome,” said Lowe, who also is the new director of the Curb Center for Art, Enterprise and Public Policy. She has been working with the Cymbeline cast and festival staff during their rehearsals in Neely Auditorium.
Chuck Smith, a former colleague and longtime friend of Lowe, is directing Gem of the Ocean by August Wilson . The resident director at the Goodman Theater in Chicago, Smith will return to Nashville in spring 2023 to work with Lowe and other theatre faculty on a new Vanderbilt–Fisk arts partnership. He will direct the play Sweat , with actors and crew members from both universities coming together for the production.
Also sharing his expertise with the festival’s Summer Shakespeare productions is Phillip Franck , associate professor of theatre and department chair. Franck is the lighting designer for Cymbeline and Gem of the Ocean . “They are very different productions, with most of Gem of the Ocean set in a kitchen, while the scenes in Cymbeline move from a British palace and garden to Rome, a cave in Wales and more,” Franck said. “With both plays, the lighting must communicate visibility—selecting what parts of the stage are visible at different points in the story, and supporting the emotion that is happening onstage with the actors.”
Most of Franck’s responsibilities will be during “tech week,” when all aspects of each production come together, including the actors, costumes, lighting, scenery and sounds. “We will record all of the different lighting arrangements so they will be ready to go with the press of a button each show,” Franck said. “Of course, we will have to move everything and ‘retech’ the shows for the performances in Franklin.”
Vanderbilt University is a longtime supporter of the Nashville Shakespeare Festival as part of its overall community outreach, with the Division of Government and Community Relations facilitating the sponsorship. Midori Lockett, chief community impact officer, serves on the festival’s board.
“We are grateful to Vanderbilt for the many ways they support our festival’s mission, which is to educate and entertain the Midsouth community through professional theatrical experiences,” said Denice Hicks , executive artistic director for the Nashville Shakespeare Festival.
The festival is free and open to the public, with a suggested $10 donation per person at each performance. Visit the Nashville Shakespeare Festival website for show dates, times and additional information.

Deputy Minister of Higher Education Bhuti Manamela’s wife, Nomvuyo Mhlakaza-Manamela, dared the pregnant female VIP protection officer she allegedly beat up to take out her gun and shoot her.
Mhlakaza-Manamela, the deputy speaker in the Gauteng legislature, appeared at the Johannesburg magistrate’s court on Thursday for assault with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
This after she allegedly attacked the officer, Sergeant Lizzy Mojapelo, at her Johannesburg house in February 2020. The case was postponed to September for trial.
According to a cop close to Mojapelo, Mhlakaza-Manamela punched her and repeatedly called her a “rubbish” who wanted to control her in her house. This after she took offence that Mojapelo had taken a long time to open the guardhouse.
The deputy speaker also accused her husband of “standing there” and doing nothing when this “rubbish” was controlling her in her house.
Relating the incident, the cop said Mojapelo was sitting in the guardhouse when she saw the car lights flashing by the gate, but she did not open as she waited for the motorists to hoot first.
She said after a few minutes, the deputy speaker got out of the vehicle and started to dance while holding two bottles of alcohol in her hands. As the car reversed, she walked to the front door of the main house and put down the bottles she was carrying. She attempted to open the door but failed.
“She went straight to the window of the guardhouse and banged it,” said the cop.
The cop said when Mojapelo asked her if she could help with an anything, the deputy speaker blew her top and asked her who she was to ask her that question.
Mojapelo walked outside, greeted her and asked her how she could be of assistance to her. “She greeted her and asked her again how she could be of help to her because she couldn’t stand properly and it was dark because of load-shedding,” said the cop.
Another cop said after some time, the deputy speaker called her husband and the former Young Communist Party leader came out shining the light of his cellphone on her face.
“She greeted the minister by calling him ‘baba’ but he never replied. She nonetheless started to explain what was happening, but he just kept quite while his wife kept on shouting and pushing her [Mojapelo],” said the cop.
Manamela ordered his wife to leave but she refused and continued to abuse Mojapelo. “She came closer to her face and told her that she doesn’t care about the rank [of her job]. At that time, she was reeking of alcohol and the minister just stood there doing nothing.
“She (the deputy speaker) then said ‘Bhuti I don’t want this rubbish in my house, she must go out of my premises’,” said the cop.
The cop added Mojapelo decided to walk back to the guardhouse but the deputy speaker blocked her and said: “Even this guard is in my house, go, I don’t want you in my house.”
The deputy speaker then allegedly punched Mojapelo on her back. When she turned around to ask why she was attacking her, she unleashed more punches. Mojapelo fell on the chairs, which were in the guardhouse.
“At that time the minister’s wife was shouting ‘kill me … kill me, take out your firearm and shoot me. Mojapelo was also screaming in pain and telling the minister’s wife that she was hurting her,” said the cop, adding that Mojapelo also pleaded with the minister to come to her rescue.
Mojapelo later opened a case at the police station. The National Prosecuting Authority declined to prosecute but changed its stance when the AfriForum threatened to go for private prosecution.
Gauteng Police spokesperson Mavela Masondo declined to comment and referred Sunday World to national police spokesperson Athlenda Mathe, who was not available for comment.
Mojapelo said she was unable to comment because she was too busy. Attempts solicit comments from the couple drew a blank as they ignored our messages and telephone calls.

College gate didn't open for UP minister, returned after 15-minutes wait
The college administration has ordered a probe into the incident and sought an explanation from the faculty that had organised the exhibition.
A minister in the Uttar Pradesh government had to return from the entrance of a college in Agra without attending an exhibition as the gate wasn't opened for him on Saturday, according to a PTI report. The college administration has reportedly ordered a probe into the incident and sought an explanation from the faculty concerned over the fiasco that caused “inconvenience to the minister”.
Yogendra Upadhyay, UP higher education minister, arrived at Agra College to attend a drawing and painting exhibition on Saturday. Upadhyay waited at the college entrance for about 15 minutes but the gate wasn't opened, prompting the “seemingly irritated” minister to return, reported PTI.
The minister is yet to respond over the incident.
College principal Anurag Shukla said the faculty of drawing and painting department had organised the exhibition "on their own" with the help of an NGO. A huge rush of vehicles due to internal exams in the college led to the “unfortunate incident”, said Shukla.
"We have sought an explanation from the teacher who had organised the exhibition on the college premises and formed a committee to probe the lapse," he said, adding that the exhibition "wasn't held by the college".
"It was an unfortunate incident and we regret the inconvenience caused to the minister," he added.

'Reason why we were out of T20 WC was because...': Ex-India selector slams KL Rahul's decision to bowl first in 2nd ODI
India were expected to bat first on winning the toss in a bid to provide more game time to captain himself and Deepak Hooda, both of whom will leave for the UAE for the Asia Cup at the end of the series on Monday in Harare.
Team India managed to script yet another convincing win against Zimbabwe in the second ODI as they beat the hosts by 5 wickets to claim the three-match series 2-0 with a match in hand. India did have to break a sweat in the second game, unlike their dominating 10-wicket victory, but the aggressive approach in their chase helped the Men in Blue wrap up the match in just 24.5 overs. Yet former India selector Saba Karim was left unhappy with India's win against Zimbabwe on Saturday in Harare and it all went down to the decision captain KL Rahul had taken at the start of the match.
India were expected to bat first on winning the toss in a bid to provide more game time to captain himself and Deepak Hooda, both of whom will leave for the UAE for the Asia Cup at the end of the series on Monday in Harare. Openers Shikhar Dhawan and Shubman Gill's dominating unbeaten partnership in the first ODI led India to a 10-wicket win hence there were no batting opportunity for Rahul, who was returning after a long injury lay-off.
However, on winning the toss in the second game, Rahul opted to bowl first again and despite an impressive win, Karim slammed the decision reminding him of India's loss in the T20 World Cup last year.
“I was expecting India to bat first after winning the toss, but that didn’t happen. They again took the logical kind of route and this is so easy for them because if you have come to Zimbabwe. There have to be some takeaways for you as a side. The best way to do that would have been to put yourself in a difficult situation and try and come out of it," he said on Sony Sports Network after the match.
“The reason why we were out of the T20 World Cup was because of our conservative approach while batting first and it may happen leading up to the World Cup. So it’s always good to prepare and try and get yourself out of comfort zones.”
Rahul, however, made a small change in India's batting line-up and opted to open for India. But his return was ruined by Victor Nyauchi as he departed scoring just 1 run in 5 balls. Hooda also managed some game time as he scored 25 runs in 36 balls in India five-wicket win. | https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/reason-why-we-were-out-of-t20-wc-was-because-ex-india-selector-saba-karim-slams-captain-kl-rahul-s-decision-to-bowl-first-in-2nd-odi-vs-zimbabwe-101661055062172-amp.html | 2022-08-21T05:13:07Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/reason-why-we-were-out-of-t20-wc-was-because-ex-india-selector-saba-karim-slams-captain-kl-rahul-s-decision-to-bowl-first-in-2nd-odi-vs-zimbabwe-101661055062172-amp.html | false | 2 |
CALHOUN, La. (AP) — A new winemaking operation has become an off-the-beaten-path destination in Northeast Louisiana.
Thirsty Farmer Winery and Vineyard in Calhoun offers locally crafted wines, eats and live Saturday entertainment. Owned by Michael and Savannah Ray, the family-owned operation opened its doors on June 4, attracting over 1,000 people.
Michael Ray said the couple decided to go into the winemaking business following a trip to wine country in California in 2015. Initially in San Francisco for a continuing education course for Savannah, Ray said the two trekked to Napa Valley and Sonoma County where another education awaited.
“Sonoma really changed my mind about what grape growing was,” Ray said. “It wasn’t about winemaking at that point, it was about seeing these guys growing grapes. They were farmers and it just so happen that we got row crop here. Cotton, corn and everything else but these guys were farming grapes. It just changed my mind about what they meant and what it could be.”
Ray said he tried his hand at growing grapes soon after returning to Calhoun, planting over 150 vines. However, Ray said he still had a lot to learn, accumulating little knowledge from the Internet and other local grape growers.
“I found out really quickly that I had put the wrong grapes in the ground and they were eventually going to get sick,” Ray said. “I thought, ‘Well there’s no way they’ll get this diseased that everybody’s telling me about.’ It’s call Pierce’s disease and three years later, they did. I cared for them for three years, got them trained and had them growing the way they needed to grow and they set fruit on year three.”
Despite not yet being able to harvest, Ray said he and his wife continued to learn the business. The two eventually enrolled into the Distilling and Viticulture Program at Grayson College in Denison, Texas.
The winery currently produces six crafted wines, most of which feature fruits other than grapes, such as their peach wine.
Thirsty Farmer Winery and Vineyards offers six crafted wines.
One of their more popular wines, “Crush,” incorporates raspberry and strawberry. “Bubbles,” the winery’s rosé, is produced from Zinfandel grapes and a red blend, called “5:04,” is 70% cabernet. Their Lomanto varietal is produced from grapes which, according to Ray, can grow well in the Louisiana climate.
The winery hosts “Wineaux Ramble,” a weekly live concert which features local talent, on Saturdays. It also pairs the crafted wine with foods such as charcuterie boards. Currently held in the new tasting room, Ray said when cooler weather permits, the concerts will move to the winery’s outdoor space.
Ray referred to the responses to the winery and its products as “overwhelming.” He said the Saturday concerts attract large crowds every week.
The tasting room at Thirsty Farmer Winery and Vineyard is open every Saturday from noon to 8 p.m., with live music from 3-6 p.m. | https://www.darientimes.com/news/article/New-winery-vineyard-offers-NE-Louisiana-wines-17387554.php | 2022-08-21T05:17:03Z | https://www.darientimes.com/news/article/New-winery-vineyard-offers-NE-Louisiana-wines-17387554.php | true | 11 |
The day we’ve all been waiting for has finally arrived – Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s wedding day! The day was filled with amazing looks but Ben’s daughter, Violet, looked gorgeous in images obtained by TMZ. The 16-year-old stole the show in her outfit for her dad’s big day on Aug. 2, held at Ben’s 87-acre Riceboro, Georgia estate. Violet opted for a long off-the-shoulder white dress — fitting for the dress code of the event, as all guests wore white — that featured a tulle detail over top. The number finished in a classic A-line skirt.
While the photos were taken at a distance, she appeared to be without her usual glasses that she was spotted rocking just two days before as she toured Savannah. She also held onto a flower bouquet as she followed Ben and Jennifer down the aisle, with her brother Samuel, 10, behind her. Sister Seraphina, 13, held Jennifer’s 20 foot long veil — part of her custom Ralph Lauren gown — alongside Jen’s child Emme, 14.
Violet has such a unique style and we never know what she’s going to wear but she always manages to pull it off. Just a few days ago, Violet was out in NYC with J.Lo when she wore a pair of mid-rise, burnt orange straight-leg cropped pants. Tucked into the pants was a fitted gray vintage-inspired T-shirt with graphics across the front. She accessorized her look with a pair of glasses, a face mask, and pink, orange, and yellow strappy espadrille sandals.
Aside from this outfit, Jennifer Garner’s daughter looked super stylish while in Paris, France, celebrating JLo’s 53rd birthday. Violet was seen hugging her dad as she wore a sleeveless, black and white mini dress that was covered in tiny hearts. The dress featured a high neck and a cinched in waist while the skirt was poofy and pleated. She topped her look off with clear, square glasses and she had her shoulder-length brown hair down and straight.
Another one of our favorite looks from Violet was when she was out in LA with her dad wearing a black and white polka dot dress. The cap-sleeve dress was baggy and ended at her knees with a lace trim while the rest of the dress had a wrap-around bodice and was cinched in at her waist. She topped her look off with chunky sneakers and a white hat. | https://hollywoodlife.com/2022/08/20/violet-affleck-outfit-ben-jennifer-lopez-georgia-wedding-photos/ | 2022-08-21T05:18:24Z | https://hollywoodlife.com/2022/08/20/violet-affleck-outfit-ben-jennifer-lopez-georgia-wedding-photos/ | true | 1 |

CLEVELAND (AP) — Johnny Cueto scattered five hits over 8 2/3 innings and José Abreu had an RBI double, sending the Chicago White Sox over the Cleveland Guardians 2-0 on Saturday night.
Cleveland leads the AL Central by one game over Minnesota, while the White Sox moved within 2 1/2 games of the Guardians. Chicago had lost three in a row.
“Every time I pitch now is kind of like a playoff game because we’re in the race,” Cueto said. “I know what I have and I like to compete.”
Cueto (6-5) posted his 10th consecutive quality start, the first double-digit string by the White Sox since Carlos Rodón in 2016. The right-hander struck out two and walked one in beating Cleveland for the fifth time in five career decisions.
Manager Tony La Russa pulled Cueto for Liam Hendriks with one on and two outs in the ninth after 113 pitches. Hendriks struck out rookie Oscar Gonzalez for his 28th save.
The 36-year-old Cueto nearly pitched his first shutout since 2016 with San Francisco.
“Cueto is an artist and he was clutch for us,” La Russa said. “He looked the same at the end as he did at the beginning, but the only guy he wasn’t going to face was Gonzalez. Liam is happy that we shared the wealth.”
Shane Bieber (8-7) had his four-start winning streak snapped, allowing two runs on five hits in 6 1/3 innings. The 2020 AL Cy Young Award winner struck out four in his first loss since July 24 at the White Sox.
Abreu opened the scoring in the sixth by doubling to straight-away center, driving in Luis Robert. Chicago only had one hit off Bieber entering the inning.
“Johnny has been a great arm for a long time,” Bieber said. “But obviously it sucks to come out on the other end of a game like this.”
Elvis Andrus extended the White Sox’s lead to 2-0 on an unusual play in the seventh, scampering home after Gonzalez’s throw from right field bounced and struck catcher Luke Maile on his mask.
Gonzalez caught Josh Harrison’s flyout, but was charged with an error when the ball dislodged Maile’s mask and bounced away from him. Reliever James Karinchak was unable to retrieve it before Andrus touched the plate.
“(Andrus) is a hell of a threat and he takes pride in his baserunning,” La Russa said. “He still has his legs.”
White Sox catcher Yasmani Grandal injured his left knee while attempting to score from second base in the seventh. Grandal, who was thrown out by Myles Straw, was unable to put any weight on his leg as he was helped off the field.
Grandal was on crutches in the clubhouse and said he wouldn’t know the specifics of his injury until undergoing tests. La Russa said he will be placed on the injured list Sunday.
Andrus went 1 for 4 in his second game with the White Sox. The 33-year-old shortstop signed as a free agent after being released by Oakland.
Gonzalez had two of Cleveland’s hits, along with its lone walk, and rookie Steven Kwan, Josh Naylor and Maile each had one.
The Guardians have won 10 of their last 14 and are 23-14 since July 10.
The first pitch was delayed by 2 hours, 55 minutes due to rain and started at 9:05 p.m. Cleveland has played an MLB-high 10 doubleheaders and had 11 games postponed, including three against Chicago.
“A three-hour rain delay isn’t good to begin with, but I think it’s even harder on starting pitchers,” Bieber said. “That’s why Johnny and I gave each other a look when we finally got out there.”
Robert started for the first time in eight games after spraining his left wrist sliding into second base on Aug. 12.
Chicago’s Andrew Vaughn, who was struck on the face by a pitch from Trevor Stephan that first glanced off his shoulder Friday, was in uniform but did not play.
TRAINER’S ROOM
White Sox: OF Eloy Jiménez (right knee hyperextension) batted third and served as the designated hitter, one night after exiting in the middle of an at-bat in the eighth inning. Jiménez said he responded well to treatment after being injured on a hard swing.
Guardians: C Austin Hedges (right ankle sprain) was held out of the lineup by manager Terry Francona, but was available. Hedges slid feet-first down the steps of the dugout in the fifth inning Friday while pursuing a wild pitch, forcing him to leave the game.
UP NEXT
White Sox: RHP Dylan Cease (12-5, 2.09 ERA) starts the three-game series finale. Cease leads the majors with 11.99 strikeouts per nine innings, ranks third in ERA and is fourth with 178 strikeouts.
Guardians: RHP Aaron Civale (2-5, 5.63 ERA) is on a seven-start winless streak, losing twice with a 3.55 ERA over 33 innings since June 21. Civale also has taken four straight no-decisions since July 8.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Lindsey Horan had a pair of goals and Lyon defeated Monterrey 4-0 on Saturday night to win the Women's International Champions Cup.
Chelsea defeated the Portland Thorns 1-0 in the consolation game at Portland's Providence Park.
Las Rayadas started off well to the delight of the enthusiastic Monterrey fans on hand. Goalkeeper Alex Godinez dove to stop a shot by Lyon's Delphine Cascarino in the 14th minute.
But Horan converted on a penalty kick in the 39th minute to put Lyon in front. Horan, who is on loan to Lyon from the Thorns, blew kisses to the crowd after scoring.
Moments later, she added a second goal and Lyon led 2-0 at the break.
Sara Dabritz extended Lyon's lead with a goal in the 53rd minute, and Signe Bruun capped scoring in the 64th.
In the earlier game, Chelsea's Guro Reiten scored the lone goal in the 64th minute.
All four teams in the tournament earned a spot in the field because of championships in their respective leagues. Lyon won the Champions League and the French championship while Chelsea is the Women’s Super League champion.
Monterrey was the 2021 Apertura winner in Liga MX, and the National Women’s Soccer League’s Thorns were the Supporters Shield and Challenge Cup winners last year.
The Thorns were the 2021 WICC champions.

Transcripts of conference calls by Tom Brady on Tuesday and Bill Belichick on Monday with Jets reporters:
PATRIOTS QB TOM BRADY
On what he saw from the Jets defense against Tampa Bay…
They've always had one of the best defenses in the league. It's really a challenge every time that we play them. I think they do quite a few things. They have a lot of different looks, a lot of different personnel packages. They really keep things moving on defense. It's a good scheme. They're a very well coached, very disciplined, very smart defense. They don't make many mental errors. It's going to be a great challenge for our offense. They rush, they cover, they blitz. The guys have different skillsets. They can all do a lot of things. It's a very good group.
On how difficult it is to play with injuries on the offense…
Well, I think I have a lot of confidence in the guys that we have on the roster and the guys that have been here all preseason. We've had a lot of running backs, we've got a lot of receivers that have been there. We've got three rookie receivers. Danny [Amendola] did a great job last week, Julian [Edelman] has done a great job. I have a lot of confidence in the guys we're playing with.
**
On if it is a strength of his to play with younger players and help them adapt to the system…**
I think I've just been fortunate to play with a lot of really good players over the years. It's really up to them to come in and take the coaching and try to do what we've asked them to do. The guys that line up, that gain the confidence of Coach Belichick and the rest of the coaching staff for them to be put in the game, it's not easy to play here. We run a challenging scheme. There's a lot of terminology. We do a lot with our personnel and formations, shifts and motions and different route combinations. You need to be really a smart, tough player to fit into this offense.
On if he anticipates a more traditional Jets pass rush…
It's a very good pass rush. The linebackers, when they blitz, they're good blitzers. The nickel guys are really good blitzers. They're getting a lot of pressure with just their front. They get a lot of pressure on the quarterback. They've had a great defensive line, a lot of depth, it seems. They're all big and physical, just really good football players. That's what I've seen throughout the preseason and certainly into the Bucs game.
On his negative comments about the Jets in the past…
Well, it's a very good football team. They have a lot of good players. They're very well coached, they're smart, they're disciplined, they're physical. They do a lot of good things and we have a lot of respect for them as a team and their coaching staff and the players that play there. We've had a lot of players that have come to our team from the Jets. I think it's a good rivalry and hopefully we can win a really important game in our division.
On the pace of their offense catching defenses on their heels…
We have different forms of our offense and some are fast, some are slow. I think the important thing is that we execute well. I think when we execute well, it doesn't matter what pace we're going — we move the ball, we score points. I think that's really what we talked about and our focus is trying to execute a lot better than we did this last weekend because we're going to have to do it against one of the best defenses in the league.
On if the Patriots are vulnerable with their injuries…
I think every week we just try to take it week-to-week. We don't really read what people are saying or thinking. It's a long season and it's not even the second week of the year. We've only had three regular-season practices. We have so much to go in this season. It'll all be decided here in the next four months. There's nothing that we can do about what people may say or think other than go out there and try to play well and we're going to go try to play better than we played last weekend.
On Shane Vereen's injury…
Shane's a terrific player and we really rely on him for a lot of things but we have a lot of other guys that are willing to step in and try to do whatever they're asked to do. Whether that's Stevan Ridley or LeGarrette [Blount] or Brandon Bolden or Leon Washington, all those guys are really capable, are tough, competitive guys that look forward to the opportunity. That's just how pro football is. It's a physical sport and when guys go down other people have to step in and do the job as well as the previous guy.
On which AFC East teams will challenge them…
I think all three are challenging. I think it's a strong division. The Dolphins went on the road and won. We played the Bills and they gave us all they could handle. The Jets won their opener. There's good teams, there's good young players on every team. There's established players that are veteran leaders on each team. So it's a tough division. There is not an easy team that we have on our schedule.
On the Patriots defense…
Our defense has always really tried to complement our offense. There's games where we haven't scored many points and the defense has done a great job at limiting the opponents points. Other games where they might have given up points, we try to outscore them. It really doesn't matter if you win by 50 points or one point, it all counts the same. We try to complement each other as best we can.
PATRIOTS HEAD COACH BILL BELICHICK (Monday)
On how Geno Smith looked on film…
Yeah, I have seen it and it was good. Good drive that they put together to get down for the first field goal to put them ahead. He made a couple of plays there at the end on the pass over the middle to [Kellen] Winslow and scrambled to set up the second drive. He showed his athleticism and showed good arm strength, good accuracy. He handled the team well.
On Shane Vereen's wrist injury…
Yeah, I'm not sure where we are on some of the guys after the game. We'll have to wait until the end of the day to get a chance to catch up with the trainers and all that, so I'm not sure. (Editor's note: Vereen today was placed on injured reserve with a designation to return.)
On how much different the Jets offense looks under coordinator Marty Mornhinweg…
It's definitely different, the West Coast element in the passing game. They've got a few Wildcat plays. There's some similarities but I'd say there's some significant differences and there's some different personnel, so even if the plays are the same, they're different when they're run by different people, different guys on the offensive line, tight ends, receivers, quarterback. There's some significant difference.
On if Jets week is still special…
I think the Jets are a good football team. We've always played very competitively with them. I've got a lot of respect for Rex [Ryan], his coaching staff, their players, their team. They certainly played well situationally in the game against Tampa. Yeah, absolutely. It's a division game so it's always tough.
On having Tim Tebow in the offseason…
He's not on our roster right now so I don't really think it's appropriate for me to talk about someone who's not on our team. We've got 53 other guys we can talk about.
On the challenges of preparing on a short week…
It's the same for both teams. We both have the same amount of time to get ready for the game. We'll do the best we can with it to be ready to go Thursday night.
On if he was surprised by how much Smith ran against Tampa Bay…
No, he's an athletic guy. We saw plenty of that when he was at West Virginia. He can run if he needs to run, he can throw if he needs to throw. I thought he did a good job of both.
On Rob Gronkowski's injury status…
He's coming along.
On how Gronkowski is coming along…
He's day-to-day.
On if the Aaron Hernandez situation has become less of an issue over time…
I've really said all I could say about that. I don't have anything to add. I said back in July that we've moved on and we've moved on.
On if it is more difficult for a rookie to play on a short week on the road…
I think it's a challenge for everybody this week, for the players, for coaches to get ready. That's all really what we can worry about is what we can do. We'll have to shorten our work week, but it's the same situation we played the Jets in last year on a Thursday game. We'll take the time that we can, try to get the most out of it in terms of our preparation for their schemes, their players, being able to do what we think we can do to win the game.
We'll just take it day by day and do the best we can. We're still kind of in the process of finalizing our game plan and stuff like that tonight. We haven't fully gotten into exactly what we're going to do. We just finished with Buffalo. We've got some ideas but we'll have to pull it all together here and try to figure out what's our best approach. | https://www.newyorkjets.com/news/patriots-jets-defenders-can-do-a-lot-of-things-11134823 | 2022-08-21T05:54:04Z | https://www.newyorkjets.com/news/patriots-jets-defenders-can-do-a-lot-of-things-11134823 | false | 1 |

CHONGQING, China (AP) — China says it will try to protect its grain harvest from record-setting drought by using chemicals to generate rain, while factories in the southwest waited Sunday to see whether they would be shut down for another week due to shortages of water to generate hydropower.
The hottest, driest summer since Chinese records began 61 years ago has wilted crops and left reservoirs at half of their normal water level. Factories in Sichuan province were shut down last week to save power for homes as air-conditioning demand surged, with temperatures as high as 45 degrees Celsius (113 degrees Fahrenheit).
The coming 10 days is a “key period of damage resistance” for southern China’s rice crop, said Agriculture Minister Tang Renjian, according to the newspaper Global Times.
Authorities will take emergency steps to “ensure the autumn grain harvest,” which is 75% of China’s annual total, Tang said Friday, according to the report.
Authorities will “try to increase rain” by seeding clouds with chemicals and spray crops with a “water retaining agent” to limit evaporation, Tang’s ministry said on its website. It gave no details of where that would be done.
The disruption adds to challenges for the ruling Communist Party, which is trying to shore up sagging economic growth before a meeting in October or November when President Xi Jinping is expected to try to award himself a third five-year term as leader.
A reduced Chinese grain harvest would have a potential global impact. It would boost demand for imports, adding to upward pressure on inflation in the United States and Europe that is running at multi-decade highs.
Also Sunday, thousands of factories in Sichuan province that make solar panels, processor chips and other industrial goods waited for word on whether last week's six-day shutdown would be extended.
A document that circulated on social media and said it was from the Sichuan Economic and Information Industry Department said the closure would be extended through Thursday, but there was no official confirmation.
Phone calls to the economic agency and provincial government weren’t answered. A woman who answered the phone at the Sichuan branch of the government-owned power utility State Grid Ltd. said she had seen no notice about extending the shutdown. She wouldn’t give her name.
The governments of Sichuan and neighboring Hubei province say thousands of acres (hectares) of crops are a total loss and millions have been damaged.
Hubei’s government declared a drought emergency on Saturday and said it would release disaster aid. The Sichuan government said 819,000 people face a shortage of drinking water.
Sichuan has been hardest hit by drought because it gets 80% of its power from hydroelectric dams. The provincial government says reservoirs are at half of normal water levels. It earlier called on manufacturers to “leave power for the people.”
Offices and shopping malls in Sichuan were ordered to turn off lights and air-conditioning. The subway in Chengdu, the provincial capital, said it turned off thousands of lights in stations.
Meanwhile, other areas have suffered deadly flash floods.
Flooding in the northwestern province of Qinghai killed at least 25 people and left eight missing, the official Xinhua News Agency reported, citing local authorities.
Mudslides and overflowing rivers late Thursday hit six villages in Qinghai’s Datong county, the report said. Some 1,500 people were forced out of their homes.

When Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in 1977 ended the “emergency” that had suspended India’s democratic processes since 1975, Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, a former U.S. ambassador to India, puckishly said: Wonderful news – the United States is no longer the world’s largest democracy.
By next year, India will become the most populous nation. This, like House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s splendidly insouciant visit to Taiwan, will diminish today’s fatalism about China – the fallacious assumption that its trajectory is inevitably upward, so it must be accommodated.
Ian Bremmer of the Eurasia Group said in a recent newsletter that “the world isn’t moving in China’s direction.” After 50 years during which cheap labor made China the world’s “manufacturing engine,” Chinese labor is increasingly expensive and decreasingly abundant. A United Nations model projects China’s population, 1.4 billion today, peaking in 2028 and then shrinking to 700 million to 900 million by 2100. In June, Bremmer said, the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences issued a report – immediately suppressed – that China’s population actually peaked last year and will decline steadily to 587 million in 2100.
With sensible U.S. immigration policies, the nation’s population in 2100 might approach that. Speaking of immigration and much else in a private talk, Norman Augustine, former defense industry leader and Pentagon official, is wise.
He respects China’s achievement in moving more of its citizens “from poverty into the middle class than there are Americans to move anywhere.” And he agrees with Chinese President Xi Jinping that “technological innovation has become the main battleground of the global playing field.”
Augustine notes: “In the year 2000 the U.S. graduated 1.9 times as many scientists and engineers at the baccalaureate level as China; but, by 2020, China was graduating 2.4 times as many as the U.S. At the doctorate level, the U.S. lead was a factor of 3.3, whereas today China leads by a factor of 1.1. If one excludes Chinese nationals who graduate from U.S. universities, that factor becomes 1.3 – and is rapidly increasing.”
A Chinese high school graduate has had nearly three more years of classroom education than an American counterpart, Augustine said, “simply due to the length of the respective school years.” The standardized U.S. test called the Nation’s Report Card rates 76% of 12th graders below proficient in math and 78% below proficient in science. Augustine notes acidly that increased spending on K-12 education has enlarged schools’ administrative staff 88% while student enrollment has grown just 8%.
In the percentage of all baccalaureate degrees granted in engineering, the United States ranks 76th globally. Twenty-three percent of U.S. Ph.D.s are in science, technology, engineering or mathematics; in China, 79%. Augustine said a “substantial” reason for U.S. proficiency in STEM subjects is immigration: 28% of U.S. university faculty members in science and engineering were born abroad, as were 38% of American Nobel laureates in chemistry, physics and medicine since 2000. “And nearly half of U.S. Fortune 500 companies had a founder who was an immigrant or the child of an immigrant,” Augustine said.
America’s choices can win the competition with China. The United States can choose more-welcoming immigration policies, including retaining foreign nationals who earn about one-third of science and engineering Ph.D.s from U.S. universities. The U.S. government can choose to spend much more than 0.2% of GDP on basic research. (This percentage has declined in 20 of the last 28 years and now ranks 29th globally.) The United States has, after all, 16 of the world’s 25 best universities, according to the Times Higher Education 2022 ranking. And while China’s allies (North Korea, Iran and Russia) represent 17% of global GDP, the United States and its closest allies – counting just Europe and Japan – represent almost 50%.
Meanwhile, China is choosing to make itself stupid. The Financial Times reports that China’s youth unemployment is 18.4% and university graduates are struggling to find work – “unless they have degrees in Marxism.” In 2018, the education ministry ordered universities to hire at least one Marxism instructor for every 350 students. In this year’s second quarter, there was a 20% increase, over the same period last year, of job openings requiring a Marxism degree. Good: Marxism makes adherents stupid. All those brain cells devoted to a 19th-century prophet whose prophecies have not fared well.
A 20th-century paradox: If the 1917 revolution had not infected Russia with communism, there would have been no Cold War; but communism’s stultifying irrationalities determined the war’s fortunate outcome. A 21st-century probability: China’s Leninism – everything is subordinated to the party’s “vanguard” function, and the party is the vanguard of ignorance – will similarly determine China’s trajectory.

Death toll from Missouri house explosion rises to three after mother and three-year-old daughter die
Father Corey Coleman died immediately after blast occurred on Monday
The death toll from a house explosion in Missouri this week has risen to three after a woman and her three-year-old daughter succumbed to their injuries.
Myranda Gale Golden, 22, died on Friday from the injuries she sustained after her home in Wyatt, a southern city in Missouri, exploded on 15 August, the Mississippi County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.
Golden’s three-year-old daughter died a day before her mother on Thursday.
Both mother and daughter “were in critical condition and fighting for their lives” after being hospitalised on Monday, the sheriff’s office had earlier said.
The father, Corey Coleman, 23, died immediately after the blast occurred on Monday.
Officers responding to the scene on Monday said “a total of 10 victims” – including two of the girl’s younger siblings, one of who is six months old – were located.
All seven surviving members of the family are in stable condition and “undergoing treatment at various mid-west hospitals”, the sheriff’s office said.
Mississipi County Sheriff Britton Ferrell called the incident “beyond” tragic and asked the community to “plase pray for this family and everyone who was involved”.
In a statement posted on Facebook on 17 August, police said that investigators believe the explosion resulted “propane gas that filled the residence” after a leak.
“The leak is narrowed down to the gas cook stove or a gas water heater,” the local sheriff’s office continued, adding that no foul play is suspected.
There are less than 10 home explosions caused by gas leaks in Missouri annually, as per the statement.
Police officials warned residents to evacuate their building and call a utility company, if they smelled the odour of gas or rotten eggs.

Two years ago, we pledged to go net zero carbon by 2030, supporting our 12,000 suppliers to do the same. We promised to use our voice – our channels, stars and shows – to raise awareness of climate issues and the everyday actions we can all take, to make a difference.
In the last twelve months, we've made good progress towards our 2030 goals. And looking back over 2021 – the wildfires, the record temperatures and the speed with which polar ice is melting away – shows us just how critical this work is. We remain determined to play our part. Together, we are thousands of colleagues, reaching 23 million customers across Europe. We're changing the way we work, driving positive change in our industry and spreading the word.
Last year, our goals to go net zero carbon by 2030 were ratified by the Science Based Targets Initiative. They confirmed that our targets to slash emissions caused by our business operations, by our suppliers and by customers using our tech products in their homes, are in line with our collective need to keep global warming to below 1.5 degrees. This matters. Because we now have a solid baseline against which to measure our progress. The SBTI also praised the ambition of our targets.
In 2021, we sourced all our electricity from 100% renewable sources – this will be our new normal, going forwards.
All our TV productions are going net zero and we launched our new Sustainable Production Principles to help our content creators get there. Sky Sports News joined Sky News, becoming an albert certified carbon neutral news channel. Sky Production Services were awarded the DPP Committed to Sustainability mark, for the highest standards of sustainability.
We are building the world's most sustainable film and TV studio – Sky Studios Elstree – which opens this year. Every production made at Elstree will be as sustainable as possible. We estimate that Sky Studios Elstree will attract £3 billion in production spend in its first five years, so this is significant.
We launched Sky Glass, the world's first carbon neutral TV. Sky Glass has been designed to reduce emissions and has built-in power saving features like Auto-switch off mode when no motion is detected. We're proud that this is the only TV that comes in recyclable packaging, free from single-use plastic.
At COP26, we were proud to be Principal Partner and Media Partner, supporting leaders to drive change. We launched a landmark piece of research at COP26 from the Behavioural Insights team, to understand the role broadcasters can play.
We learnt that 70% of people across Europe are willing to change their behaviour, to address the climate crisis. And that TV has the power to drive lasting change, with one in three people having made lifestyle changes, inspired by TV shows. People expect us to cut through the complexity on climate issues.
On the back of this research, we agreed with 12 of the UK's biggest broadcasters to keep climate issues on the agenda, across the full range of our content, from hard-hitting news through to dramas, kids shows and more.
We launched The Daily Climate Show, a prime time daily news bulletin. We broadcast Climate News Live, a channel dedicated to COP26, from the summit.
We created Obki, a new show helping kids explore climate issues. Plus Wonder Raps and a new documentary following young climate activists and featuring HRH Prince of Wales.
Temple 2 brings global warming to the fore, with many of the characters observing phenomena linked to global warming and finding their lives impacted by it. Sky Sports Cricket's Climate Crisis explains why sport is under threat as the climate change worsens.
During Celebrity Landscape Artist of the Year, our artists painted eroding coastlines. We also partnered with Tottenham Hotspur Football Club, to create Game Zero, the world's first carbon neutral football match. Game Zero creates a ground-breaking template that every major sporting event can follow.
Last year, we unveiled the winners of the Sky Zero Footprint Fund, a series of sustainable companies that won free advertising. During COP26, we ran ad roadblocks for our Footprint Fund winners, raising awareness of their products and services.
Films and TV shows tackling climate issues aren't just important. They're popular. We can see that in the response to our own climate content, and content made by our partners elsewhere.
It all goes to show we're on the right track. You can expect to see more exciting content from us this year. And more great strides towards our net zero carbon future. I'm so proud of the way people at Sky have pulled together to make change happen. One thing that this year has taught me is the power of us all acting together.

Bill McAnally Racing drivers Cole Moore and Landen Lewis dominated the first half of the NAPA AUTO PARTS 150 at Evergreen Speedway on Saturday night and went on to finish fourth and sixth, respectively, as the 1,000th event for the ARCA Menards Series West was celebrated.
After starting second on the grid, Lewis dashed into the lead in the No. 16 NAPA AUTO PARTS Chevrolet SS. Moore started fourth in the No. 99 Adaptive One Chevrolet SS and took advantage of an early restart to charge into second.
Lewis paced the field for the first 32 laps around the historic .646-mile fairgrounds track in Monroe, Washington. Moore took the lead at that point and maintained command through the first half of the race. He was shuffled back to second just after a Lap 90 restart, following the race break. Lewis, meanwhile, was fifth through the midway point.
Moore and Lewis continued to battle among the top-five drivers as the laps wound down. Moore was running third when the final caution came out on Lap 120. Lewis was fifth, but opted to pit and returned to the track in ninth. Lewis made his way up to sixth in the final laps, while Moore was fourth when the checkered flag flew.
The NAPA brand was prevalent at the speedway on Saturday, with BMR working with NAPA Seattle on the entitlement event. In advance of the race, team owner Bill McAnally, NASCAR Hall of Famer Ron Hornaday, and driver Landen Lewis visited NAPA AUTO PARTS stores and NAPA AutoCare shops in the Seattle market area. On Saturday, special guests were treated to a VIP experience, with a special hospitality and a pit tour – along with VIP guest crew members.

Joe Biden and the Democrats have left the entire southern border wide open to the point where Cartels are running the show, and its’ a free for all like never seen before. A massive bust with deadly ramifications took place by the brave folks at the DEA last month, and it didn’t even make national news.
Mainly because the mainstream media is too busy talking about Trump Trump Trump, instead of focusing on the real problems America is facing.
The Drug Enforcement Administration just discovered over 1 million fake pills containing fentanyl in Inglewood, California.
“This record-breaking bust is the largest seizure of fentanyl pills (the) DEA has made in California,” the DEA said in a statement.
A federal search warrant was executed by DEA agents, which resulted in the seizure of the pills that had been linked to Mexico’s Sinaloa cartel.
Authorities have stated that this bust is the largest amount of fentanyl pills that DEA agents have seized in the state of California, who’s worth ranged between $15 to $20 million.
DEA Special Agent in Charge Bill Bodner stated, “This massive seizure disrupted the flow of dangerous amounts of fentanyl into our streets and probably saved many lives.”
The Gateway Pundit added:
The pills seized were produced in Mexico and designed to resemble brand-name prescription medications such as Oxycontin, Percocet, Vicodin, Xanax, and Adderall.
“The deceptive marketing coupled with the ease of accessibility makes these small and seemingly innocuous pills a significant threat to the health and safety of all our communities,” Bodner said.
Bonner noted that “a staggering number of teens and young adults are unaware that they are ingesting fentanyl in these fake pills and are being poisoned.”
Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that is 100 times stronger than morphine and 50 times stronger than heroin. The drug was created as a legitimate pharmaceutical drug used to treat severe pain after surgery and in advanced-stage cancer patients.
The DEA reported that Los Angeles serves as a major trans-shipment hub where many illegal drugs coming from the southwest border are housed in warehouses, storage units, as well as residential properties.
Not to mention that the LA area has numerous international airports, freeways, and bus or train lines that make the process of smuggling easy.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — KaVontae Turpin became the first player in nine seasons to have kickoff and punt return touchdowns in the same game, and the Dallas Cowboys beat the Los Angeles Chargers 32-18 Saturday night.
Turpin signed with the Cowboys on July 28 after garnering MVP honors in the United States Football League this past spring. Before Turpin, the last player to run back a punt and kickoff in the same game — preseason, regular season or playoffs — was Detroit's Jeremy Ross on Dec. 8, 2013, against Philadelphia.
“He’s so dynamic. You go back to his college days and clearly, in my opinion, he was the best player I saw in the USFL coming out," coach Mike McCarthy said of Turpin at halftime. "I’ve been so impressed with him since day one.”
After a 22-yard field goal by Dustin Hopkins gave the Chargers a 3-0 lead midway through the first quarter, Turpin returned the ensuing kickoff 98 yards for a touchdown.
Turpin got a nice wall of blockers in the middle of the field before getting into open space near the 40 and going untouched up the right sideline.
Dallas had a 29-10 lead at halftime after a pair of touchdowns in the final minute of the second quarter. That included Turpin's 86-yard punt return, where he eluded a tackle attempt from punt gunner Deane Leonard after fielding the ball, did a couple juke moves and then broke free for the score.
“I’m an exciting player, and every time I get the ball, there’s a big play waiting to happen. I’m happy to be here and take advantage of this opportunity,” said Turpin, who led the USFL in receiving yards and had the league's lone punt return for a TD.
Victor Bolden of the San Francisco 49ers was the last player to have a kickoff and punt return during the same preseason in 2017.
After two days of joint practices earlier in the week, both teams rested most of their starters. Dallas improved to 1-1 while the Chargers are 0-2.
Cooper Rush and Will Grier each directed first-half TD drives for the Cowboys, while Rico Dowdle and Malik Davis each had rushing scores. Dowdle finished as the game's leading rusher with 44 yards on 13 carries.
Easton Stick played the first half for the Chargers and connected with Joshua Palmer on a wide receiver screen for an 18-yard touchdown early in the second quarter to give the Chargers a short-lived 10-7 advantage.
INJURIES
Chargers: RB Isaiah Spiller suffered an ankle injury during the second half and did not return.
UP NEXT
Cowboys: Finish the preseason at home against Seattle on Friday.
Chargers: Travel to New Orleans for their preseason finale on Friday.

Seahawks LG Damien Lewis avoids major injury after being carted off
Seahawks left guard Damien Lewis sustained a right ankle injury in the second quarter of Seattle's 27-11 loss to the Chicago Bears on Thursday, and he was carted off the field.
An air cast was placed on Lewis' ankle before the third-year player was driven off the field. X-rays were negative, and he was diagnosed with a lateral ankle sprain.
"Very, very fortunate," Seattle coach Pete Carroll said. "He was upbeat about that, a little maybe surprised by the results. But we are thrilled by it."
With 14:05 left in the first half, Seattle's DeeJay Dallas ran for a 2-yard gain on the play. Angelo Blackson made the tackle but rolled on Lewis' ankle in the process.
Bears linebacker Caleb Johnson also went down on the same play, but he eventually walked off the field.
Lewis, 25, was replaced by Phil Haynes, who has been with the Seahawks since 2019 but has started just seven games.
Lewis was selected by Seattle in the third round of the 2020 draft out of LSU, and he started every game as a rookie. Last season, he started 13 games.

Pete Tetley greets his guests with a brief introduction of what they are about to see inside the house.
“It’s a house or a warehouse,” he says at his Colorado Springs doorstep.
Not a warehouse big enough for life-sized cars, but able to fit models. Many, many models. Hundreds in their vintage sleeves. And more in display cases that occupy the living room and make walking around a bit of an ordeal.
Sorry, Tetley says. “It’s a hoarder’s house.”
Not a hoarder’s house, but a devout hobbyist’s house. “An inner sanctum of collectibles and memorabilia,” says Tetley, 88.
In the basement, more models from his 1940s youth are stacked to the ceiling atop dozens of filing cabinets. There are more filing cabinets upstairs, more walking obstacles to go with those display cases and chests and drawers all similarly stocked across the kitchen and the den.
While the models are impressive, even more so are the countless pieces of literature dating to the 1920s dawn of American auto. The pages are from manufacturers abroad, too — yellowed brochures, catalogs, sketches, contracts, production reports and more. An ad for the Shamrock car is a rarity from Ireland.
The cabinet labels are handy: Australia, Britain, Canada, France, Germany, India, Italy, Russia, Spain and on and on.
Other labels: Buick, Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford, GMC, Hyundai, Kia, Nissan, Oldsmobile and on and on.
“Here’s the last of the Nashes,” Tetley says, pulling files from the 1950s.
He lingers over some of his favorites from bygone eras: Studebaker and DeSoto. There are more forgotten names: Kaiser-Frazer, Plymouth and Crosley.
“Pontiac,” Tetley mutters. “Another dead car.”
Just as this is a house and a warehouse and an inner sanctum, it is something of a graveyard. “I’ve outlived a lot of these cars,” Tetley says.
And yet the literature has a way of living on. Carmakers today place their content online, bound for digital disintegration, as Tetley sees it. Ads aren’t admired on a computer screen like they were in his day, hand drawn on the page. “Art,” he calls his collection.
Online, he says, nothing really lasts, like cars themselves. But they are memorialized in the material he’s meticulously preserved since childhood, since he began stashing everything he could from manufacturers and dealerships.
It’s strange, Tetley says. “The paper has outlasted the metal.”
And he’s glad to share it all. Glad to show it to these visitors today. They’ve come to tell a story, his story, which is about as colorful as his collection.
He smiles. “I don’t know if you’re here for a biography or an obituary.”
Like the literature, Tetley describes himself as a survivor. He’s known other collectors like him around Colorado. He’s met them along the road to antique shows and meets. “But they’ve all passed away,” he says.
He’s known bigger collections than his. Once, with a fellow Studebaker-crazed friend, he went to see a collector in Iowa, “who had enough literature to fill several buildings,” recalls the friend, Dave Foerch. “He built three-story buildings and had them full of stuff.”
Foerch knows the literature hounds as a different breed. “They’re always looking to complete what they have, even if they don’t know it’s complete,” he says. “It’s kind of an all-consuming thing.”
But lately, Tetley has been thinning his collection. He’s realizing the small fortune he’s long suspected. A couple of years ago, for example, Tetley says he packed nearly 100 13-gallon tubs with papers that were shipped to a man in New York for $30,000. Another group in St. Louis paid $10,000 for loads of Japanese documents, he says.
But Tetley doesn’t seem concerned about money. He’s a retired chief master sergeant, a veteran with a heart for veterans, and one has been the recipient of several donations.
Tetley’s concern, rather, is what will become of the stuff he can’t possibly part with. Much of it is too precious to him. It’s not to any family still around, he regrets to say.
“He’s old, and he needs to get rid of it,” says another hobby friend, Ron Theisman. “If he dies, somebody’s gonna come in there and clean it up and bring it to Goodwill or dump it in a dumpster.”
That would be too bad, Tetley says.
“It’s not just car history,” he says. “This is my history.”
He can point to his first brochure: one for the 1946 Ford Club Coupe, with that sleek, rounding body and silver grille up front. Tetley was 11 when his dad got that car.
He sought more brochures from his home in Berlin, N.H. He wrote not just to the likes of Studebaker, Packard and Hudson in the U.S., but to companies north of him as well, across the border in Canada. He wrote about cars in the local paper, inspiring more donations. His parents would drop him off for afternoons at auto malls. The cigar-smoking dealers in their fedoras and overcoats came to expect the boy. They had stacks of material ready.
Compelled by the kid’s letters, one dealer drove from afar to show off an Austin A40. Tetley keeps a model of the car still.
“That was probably the most beautiful thing I laid eyes on,” Tetley says.
The most beautiful thing before he laid eyes on the woman who would be his wife. Mary was teaching at a military base in Alaska, where Tetley was stationed in the early years of his career. The two married in 1955.
Off they went to see the world, as the Air Force commanded the tech specialist. Off they went in an array of cars. They are depicted, of course, in Tetley’s collection: the Chevy Bel Air, the Chevy Nomad, the Jaguar XK140, the Chrysler New Yorker, the Rambler Cross Country, which they took to France.
Time and place flew with the cars. Amid Tetley’s 28-year career, there were other stops in Australia, New Zealand, England, Iceland and Turkey, where he added boar hunting to his hobbies. But the main one remained. Everywhere he went, he looked for shops and shows.
“Everywhere I went, the hobby came with,” he says. “Every time I could find a footlocker, I would fill that up (with literature) and send it back home.”
He came back from Vietnam with something he didn’t want. The Bronze Star was awarded after his base took heavy artillery.
“You realize how close you were to getting blown up,” he says, becoming quiet with the memory. “Yeah, that’s scary.”
But he always took comfort in his collection. It was a comfort he needed after retirement, when the love of his life was no longer able to provide it.
Mary was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. For 10 years he cared for her, feeling often helpless as the disease took its brutal, unforgiving course.
In the darkest nights, he had the collection.
“This was a way to get my mind off things, remembering more pleasant things,” he says, surrounded in his overflowing living room. There are other mementos of his childhood, heroes like Ted Williams and Western star Tom Micks.
Above it all, there’s a picture hanging of him and Mary. She’s in the throes of the disease, but still smiling for their 50th wedding anniversary. She died in 2009.
“I live life a bit on the rough side now. I’m not the best housewife, as you can see,” Tetley says. “But I like my collection.”
If only he knew what to do with it.
“He’s 88, and he’s facing the same thing I am,” says his old friend, Foerch. “What are you gonna do with a legacy?”
Share it, Tetley decides. Share it with his visitors this afternoon.
As they leave, he spots something else from the collection that makes him remember another place and time.
“Oh!” he remarks. “Let me tell you another little story real quick ...” | https://gazette.com/life/for-colorado-springs-man-all-the-car-stuff-in-the-world-but-not-all-the/article_c54aac5a-0c57-11ed-b874-f782d2a25936.html | 2022-08-21T06:58:24Z | https://gazette.com/life/for-colorado-springs-man-all-the-car-stuff-in-the-world-but-not-all-the/article_c54aac5a-0c57-11ed-b874-f782d2a25936.html | true | 3 |
CHERRY HILL, N.J. (AP) — Actor Gary Busey has been charged with sexual offenses at a New Jersey fan convention this month.
Busey, 78, was charged Friday with two counts of fourth-degree criminal sexual contact, one count of attempted criminal sexual contact and one count of harassment, Cherry Hill police said Saturday.
The charges stem from offenses at the annual Monster Mania Convention at the Doubletree Hotel on Aug. 12-14 in Cherry Hill, a Philadelphia suburb, police said.
Busey, who lives in Malibu, California, was scheduled as a featured guest for all three days of the event.
Police did not immediately respond to a message seeking details. It also wasn’t clear whether Busey has an attorney to comment on the charges, and a representative didn’t immediately return a message seeking comment Saturday.
Busey is widely known as a character actor, largely in supporting roles, though he came to attention and was nominated for an Oscar for best actor for playing the title role in the 1978 film “The Buddy Holly Story.” | https://www.8newsnow.com/entertainment-news/gary-busey-charged-with-sex-offenses-at-monster-mania-con/ | 2022-08-21T06:58:50Z | https://www.8newsnow.com/entertainment-news/gary-busey-charged-with-sex-offenses-at-monster-mania-con/ | true | 77 |
Opinion: From 'troublemaker' to helping other troubled youth
In June 2016, I was just a 25-year-old troublemaker who stayed at home too much. Then one day, I decided to go to Spirit Mountain Casino, on the shuttle bus, with my mother. She overheard Jerry Herrmann, the president of Rivers of Life Center, talking on the phone, and she told me that, since I needed a job, I should talk with this gentleman. I did, and the rest is history. I have been here six years, and that is by far the longest I have ever cared to stay at any job.
I heard that my job duty was to be a tour guide. So, I was under the impression that my job was to learn about local history and instruct residents of their surroundings, kind of like Mr. Herrmann did on the bus, as we host celebration events, walking and bus tours.
Then, after working here, I discovered that we focus on beautifying lands and providing at-risk youth opportunities to improve their quality of life through the primary effort of landscaping. It is nice to help steer young people in the right direction as they develop into contributing members of society and better human beings as they work through our program.
This job has helped me find and understand God better than ever. I send more prayers now than I have ever have before.
I have learned the ins and outs — both the hard way and from Mr. Herrmann — about grant writing, newspaper article publishing, and importantly assisting in our financial affairs and accounting. Mr. Herrmann comes up with a new strategy in grants for consideration nearly every other month, and I'm the one that has to make sure it's grammatically correct, punctuations are precise and the budget elements work as they should.
I thought this was all there was to grant writing, but there is more. The people and organizations that support our nonprofit youth education and training program are very pleased when they see us following the parameters of our grants as submitted. I then give them final reports with public thank-you letters, having granted us the support.
As office manager, I've learned a huge amount of skills that help me in writing, interpersonal communication and financial practices.
I'd like to continue to be here and I'm looking for additional skillsets that I and the organization can develop together that will help me with a career path. Each year we employ several dozen youth, and if other youth are interested in the kinds of things that I do or we do, they should contact Rivers of Life Center at 503-260-3432 or by email riversoflifecenter@gmail.com. Our website riversoflifecenter.org tells it all.
Craig Holfeld is the office administrator for Rivers of Life Center, a nonprofit group that works with at-risk youth throughout the Willamette Valley to lead tours and conduct environmental restoration. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2708516997115/opinion-from-troublemaker-to-helping-other-troubled-youth | 2022-08-21T06:59:41Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2708516997115/opinion-from-troublemaker-to-helping-other-troubled-youth | true | 4 |

Zee5’s Duranga, which is an adaptation of the popular South Korean series Flower Of Evil, has received support from the lead actor Lee Joon-gi. Joon-gi, who is one of the top Hallyu stars, took to Instagram and shared a post, wishing the team luck.
He wrote, “Happy to see you, (Indian flag) friends! Looking forward!”
View this post on Instagram
Duranga stars Drashti Dhami and Gulshan Devaiah in the lead roles. The story focuses on a seemingly perfect family man, who is on the run from his dark past. His wife is a cop, and the series sees her slowly piecing together her husband’s mysterious past, while saving him from the law. In the original series, Lee Joon-gi and Moon Chae-won played the roles of Do Hyun-soo and Ji-won.
Gulshan Devaiah had earlier told PTI that he didn’t watch the original show as he wanted to have his own interpretation of the character. He said, “I told Goldie Behl I won’t watch the original show. I had some ideas and I shared them with the directors and Goldie, and they seemed to like them. It (Duranga) seemed like a good idea for me from both craft and career point of view.” However, he added that there is pressure to satisfy the viewers who have watched and liked the Korean series. “I hope our interpretation of the characters are also not influenced. But there is that pressure also from the people who have watched the original show. They like it for a certain reason and there is always a pressure when people are fans of yours,” he added.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Several people were arrested at the Kentucky State Fair, which closed early Saturday night after suspicious activity was reported to law enforcement, authorities said.
Kentucky State Police said in a statement on Twitter that the fair began a “soft close” at about 10 p.m. to ensure the safety of attendees. Police confirmed there have been no reported injuries.
Police have not released any additional details about the incident but local media outlets have confirmed people were running from reported gunfire.
The identities of the people who were arrested have not been made public. An investigation is ongoing.
The fair will resume normal operations on Sunday, officials said.
The Kentucky State Fair, which began Thursday, is an annual multiday event held at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville. | https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/police-arrest-panic-kentucky-state-fair-88651953 | 2022-08-21T07:18:13Z | https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/police-arrest-panic-kentucky-state-fair-88651953 | true | null |
World Senior Citizen’s Day is observed annually on August 21 to raise awareness about the issues and challenges faced by the elderly, including health issues and elderly abuse.
As the countries around the globe mark this year’s World Senior Citizen’s Day, we take a look at its history and significance.
History:
World Senior Citizen’s Day was initially confined to the United States and its observance began after former US President Ronald Reagan signed Proclamation 5847 on August 19, 1988, declaring August 21 to be National Senior Citizen’s Day.
“For all they have achieved throughout life and for all they continue to accomplish, we owe older citizens our thanks and a heartfelt salute. We can best demonstrate our gratitude and esteem by making sure that our communities are good places in which to mature and grow older—places in which older people can participate to the fullest and can find the encouragement, acceptance, assistance, and services they need to continue to lead lives of independence and dignity,” the proclamation read.

It should be noted that World Senior Citizen’s Day is different from the International Day of Older Persons, which was instituted by the United Nations (UN) and is observed on October 1 annually.
Significance:
With the global demographic changing, World Senior Citizen’s Day is an occasion to not only reflect on the contributions of the elderly and the issues faced by them, but also to acknowledge that the proportion of the elderly is slated to increase considerably in the coming decades, which, in turn, is likely to give rise to new challenges.
According to the UN, the total number of people above the age of 65 will hit 1.5 billion in 2050, double of the 703 million it was in 2019, with the largest increase expected to happen in Eastern and South-Eastern Asia.

Further, less developed countries will be home to more than two-thirds of the global elderly population by 2050, with an estimated 1.1 billion people aged above 65.
Given this projected increase, robust healthcare and elderly care systems will need to be set up to provide adequate care to the ageing population and reduce neglect and elderly abuse.

CHENNAI: The Tamil Nadu government will in detail study the report submitted by the one-man committee to investigate the alleged irregularities in the implementation of projects under the Smart Cities Mission during the previous AIADMK regime.
There was widespread criticism of the effectiveness of the Smart City Projects in Chennai city after the metro witnessed heavy floods in November 2021.
During the last monsoon, the T Nagar area in Chennai, which was developed after huge funds were spent under the Smart City Scheme, was heavily flooded.
Sources in the Tamil Nadu government told IANS that the one-man committee of retired IAS officer P.W.C. Davidar has a detailed and specific analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of the Smart City projects implemented in 11 districts of the state under the Smart City mission.
According to officials, the report has explained whether the smart city projects had flaws in its implementation, and has also studied whether all the guidelines of the smart city scheme were followed in a proper and full-proof manner.
Chief Minister M.K. Stalin had come out heavily against the former Municipal administration and water supplies minister, S.P. Velumani after inspecting the flood-affected areas during the 2021 monsoon period. Stalin had then said that no one knew what happened to the funds received under the smart city project.
Tamil Nadu Health Minister, Ma Subramanian while speaking to IANS said, "Chief Minister will study the report in detail and take action if any irregularities are found."
The committee was formed in March 2022 after several allegations were made against the implementation of the smart city scheme in Chennai.
Sources in the government told IANS that the committee had conducted detailed inquiries with smart city officials and other concerned contractors in all the 11 districts where the projects under the scheme were implemented in Tamil Nadu.

Antonio Conte's flexibility in the transfer market has made all the difference for Tottenham this season already. His side have made seven new signings, though they are still being steadily implemented into the squad for league matches, but the difference makers against Wolves proved that being adaptable has been just as important as spending money.
Whereas 33-year-old Ivan Perisic started the game, 22-year-old Ryan Sessegnon finished it off, securing the three points in a struggle of a game, the transfer decisions being made were clear. Perisic, a free transfer owed largely down to Conte's previous relationship with him at Inter Milan, could be one of the best value deals Spurs do.
They have spent over £100m this summer on an array of different signings, and that is what makes them strong contenders. The decision to replace Perisic with Sessegnon also coincided with Wolves introducing the speed of Adama Traore. Had Perisic been up against the Spaniard there might have been trouble, but the youthful fresh legs of Sessegnon matched his opponent.

Sessegnon himself is evidence of a new path of thinking for Conte. The youngster was on loan last season and impressed during pre-season, effectively acting as a new player for the Italian this summer and, subsequently, showing the versatility that Spurs have used to set up their team.
Perisic himself is just as versatile as Sessegnon has been positionally throughout his career, initially playing as a winger, occasionally used at full-back and now being moulded as a wing-back for Conte. The Croatian has also played in a World Cup final and performed for some of Europe's top clubs, and his addition is already proving to be a great marker for Sessegnon.
"For Sess, who is playing well this season it is very very important to have a player in front of you like Ivan," Conte said after the game. "In front of him Sess has a great career, and I think for Ivan was the same as the rest of the team. First half he struggled, second half he improved a lot. Now I want to see him in the same way - in the first half the same as the second half like the rest of the team.
"It was the same for the rest of the team. He [Perisic] struggled in the first half, with the rest of the team he improved a lot. I have seen the Ivan Perisic I know from Inter. When we were together at Inter. For us he is very important because we are talking about a player with a great experience. A player that won a lot in his past, has played in an important team. He can bring experience. I was really pleased with the impact of Ryan Sessegnon."
So far the transfer window has proved to be effective. Seven points from three matches is vindication for the early spending and different transfer methods, with cheap buys, expensive purchases, free deals and loans all used, and Conte thinks that last season his side would have zero points from these fixtures, adding to the importance of the window.
He did remain coy on how the rest of the summer might go though, saying, "I was very clear in the press conference before this game. This squad is this and if someone goes away then another has to come. This has to be very clear for everybody. Otherwise we stay with this squad and we continue our path with these players, this squad.
"This is not my task [sorting Bryan Gil's future]. About the transfer market you have to speak to the club. I think we have to respect their role."

The daughter of an ultra-nationalist Russian ideologue who advocates Russia absorbing Ukraine was killed in a suspected car bomb attack outside Moscow on Saturday evening, Russian state investigators said on Sunday.
Darya Dugina, daughter of prominent ideologue Alexander Dugin, was killed after a suspected explosive device detonated on the Toyota Land Cruiser she was travelling in, investigators from the Moscow region said in a statement.
TV footage accompanying the statement showed investigators collecting debris and fragments from the spot where the explosion happened.
Investigators, who described Darya Dugina as a journalist and political expert, said they had opened a murder case and would be carrying out forensic examinations to try to determine exactly what had happened.
They said they were considering "all versions" when it came to working out who was responsible for the crime.
Alexander Dugin, Darya's father, has long advocated the unification of Russian-speaking and other territories in a vast new Russian empire.
He wants that empire to include Ukraine where Russian forces are currently carrying out what Moscow calls a "special military operation" to demilitarise Ukraine.
The influence of Dugin, who is on a US sanctions list, over Russian President Vladimir Putin has been a subject for speculation, with some Russia watchers asserting that his sway is significant and others calling it minimal.
Darya Dugina, who also went by the surname Platonova and was reported by Russian state media to be 30 years old, broadly supported her father's ideas and appeared on state TV in her own right to offer support for Russia's actions in Ukraine. | https://bdnews24.com/world/dm4r61kum0 | 2022-08-21T07:49:13Z | https://bdnews24.com/world/dm4r61kum0 | true | 7 |

MECKENHEIM, Germany (AP) — Martin Kopf needs natural gas to run his family's company, Zinkpower GmbH, which rustproofs steel components in western Germany.
Zinkpower's facility outside Bonn uses gas to keep 600 tons of zinc worth 2.5 million euros ($2.5 million) in a molten state every day. The metal will harden otherwise, wrecking the tank where steel parts are dipped before they end up in car suspensions, buildings, solar panels and wind turbines.
Six months after Russia invaded Ukraine, the consequences are posing a devastating threat to the global economy, including companies like Zinkpower, which employs 2,800 people. Gas is not only much more costly, it might not be available at all if Russia completely cuts off supplies to Europe to avenge Western sanctions, or if utilities can't store enough for winter.
Germany may have to impose gas rationing that could cripple industries from steelmaking to pharmaceuticals to commercial laundries. "If they say, we're cutting you off, all my equipment will be destroyed," said Kopf, who' also chairs Germany’s association of zinc galvanizing firms.
Governments, businesses and families worldwide are feeling the war's economic effects just two years after the coronavirus pandemic ravaged global trade. Inflation is soaring, and rocketing energy costs have raised the prospect of a cold, dark winter. Europe stands at the brink of recession.
High food prices and shortages, worsened by the cutoff of fertilizer and grain shipments from Ukraine and Russia that are slowly resuming, could produce widespread hunger and unrest in the developing world.
Outside Uganda's capital of Kampala, Rachel Gamisha said Russia's war in faraway Ukraine has hurt her grocery business. She has felt it in surging prices for necessities like gasoline, selling for $6.90 a gallon. Something that's 2,000 shillings (about $16.70) this week may cost 3,000 shillings ($25) next week.
“You have to limit yourself,’’ she said. “You have to buy a few things that move fast.’’
Gamisha has noticed something else, too — a phenomenon called “shrinkflation": A price may not change, but a doughnut that used to weigh 45 grams may now be only 35 grams. Bread that weighed 1 kilogram is now 850 grams.
Russia's war led the International Monetary Fund last month to downgrade its outlook for the global economy for the fourth time in under a year. The lending agency expects 3.2% growth this year, down from the 4.9% it forecast in July 2021 and well below a vigorous 6.1% last year.
“The world may soon be teetering on the edge of a global recession, only two years after the last one," Pierre-Olivier Gourinchas, the IMF's chief economist, said.
The U.N. Development Program said rising food and energy prices threw 71 million people worldwide into poverty in the first three months of the war. Countries in the Balkans and sub-Saharan Africa were hit hardest. Up to 181 million people in 41 countries could suffer a hunger crisis this year, the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization has projected.
In Bangkok, rising costs for pork, vegetables and oil have forced Warunee Deejai, a street-food vendor, to raise prices, cut staff and work longer hours.
“I don’t know how long I can keep my lunch price affordable,’’ she said. “Coming out from COVID lockdowns and having to face this is tough. Worse is, I don’t see the end of it.’’
Even before Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the invasion of Ukraine, the global economy was under pressure. Inflation had skyrocketed as a stronger-than-expected recovery from the pandemic recession overwhelmed factories, ports and freight yards, causing delays, shortages and higher prices. In response, central banks began raising interest rates to try to cool economic growth and tame spiking prices.
“We’ve all got all these different things going on,’’ said Robin Brooks, chief economist at the International Institute of Finance. “The volatility of inflation went up. The volatility of growth went up. And therefore, it’s become infinitely harder for central banks to steer the ship.’’
China, pursuing a zero-COVID policy, imposed lockdowns that have severely weakened the world’s second-biggest economy. At the time, many developing countries still grappled with the pandemic and the heavy debts they had taken on to protect their populations from economic disaster.
All those challenges might have been manageable. But when Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24, the West responded with heavy sanctions. Both actions disrupted trade in food and energy. Russia is the world’s third-biggest petroleum producer and a leading exporter of natural gas, fertilizer and wheat. Farms in Ukraine feed millions globally.
The resulting inflation has rippled out to the world.
Near Johannesburg, South Africa, Stephanie Muller has been comparing prices online and checking different grocery stores to find the best deals.
“I have three children who are all in school, so I have been feeling the difference,’’ she said.
Shopping at a market in Vietnam's capital of Hanoi, Bui Thu Huong said she's been limiting her spending and cutting back on weekend dinners out. At least there’s one advantage to cooking at home with her children: “We can bond with them more in the kitchen, while saving money at the same time.’’
Syahrul Yasin Limpo, Indonesia's agriculture minister, warned this month that the price of instant noodles, a staple in the Southeast Asian nation, might triple because of inflated wheat prices. In neighboring Malaysia, vegetable farmer Jimmy Tan laments that fertilizer prices are up 50%. He’s also paying more for supplies like plastic sheets, bags and hoses.
In Karachi, Pakistan, far from the battlefields of Ukraine, Kamran Arif has taken a second, part-time job to supplement his wages.
“Because we have no control on prices, we can only try to increase our income,’’ he said.
A vast majority of people live in poverty in Pakistan, whose currency has lost up to 30% of its value against the dollar and the government has increased electricity prices 50%.
Muhammad Shakil, an importer and exporter, says he can no longer get wheat, white chickpeas and yellow peas from Ukraine.
“Now that we have to import from other countries, we have to buy at higher prices" — sometimes 10%-15% more, Shakil said.
As the war fuels inflation, central banks are raising interest rates to try to slow price increases without derailing economic growth.
The resulting increase in loan rates is punishing FlooringStores, a New York company that helps customers find flooring material and contractors. Sales are down because fewer homeowners are borrowing to pay for home improvements.
“A huge percentage of our customers finance their projects with home-equity loans and similar products, meaning that the hike in interest rates really killed our business,’’ CEO Todd Saunders said. “Inflation wasn’t helping, but the interest rates had a bigger effect.’’
Europe, which for years depended on Russian oil and natural gas for its industrial economy, has absorbed a gut punch. It faces the growing threat of recession as the Kremlin throttles back flows of natural gas used to heat homes, generate electricity and fire up factories. Prices are 15 times what they were before Russia massed troops on the Ukrainian border in March 2021.
“There’s a lot more recessionary risk and pressure in Europe than in the rest of the high-income economies," said Adam Posen, president of the Peterson Institute for International Economics and a former Bank of England policymaker.
The damage has hardly spared Russia, whose economy the IMF expects to contract 6% this year. Sergey Aleksashenko, a Russian economist now living in the United States, noted that the country's retail sales tumbled 10% in the second quarter compared with a year earlier as consumers cut back.
“They have no money to spend,” he said.

Return to New York for £303 (but you pay for headphones and blankets and the food can be 'awful'): The Mail boards the inaugural Gatwick to NYC Dreamliner flight by new budget carrier Norse
- Tom Chesshyre grabbed a faux-leather seat in economy on the first Norse 787-9 to New York's JFK Airport
- He said that his seat had 'reasonable leg space' and that 301 of the 338 seats had been sold
- You pay £2.90 for headphones and £2.90 for mineral water in economy. Want a blanket? That'll be £4.15
At the departure gate the airport’s mascot, a cuddly bear known as Gatwick Gary, welcomed passengers to the inaugural Norse Atlantic Airways flight to New York last week.
Slices of raspberry sponge celebration cake were handed out by cabin crew, and the chief executive of the new Norwegian airline, Bjorn Tore Larsen, led a cheer of ‘Norse! Norse! Norse!’
First-flight festivities over, we were called through to our Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner plane. Of the 338 seats, 301 had been sold: word about the new long-haul budget airline had got out.
Tom Chesshyre flew on Norse Atlantic Airways' inaugural London Gatwick to New York flight. Norse, a new long-haul budget airline, is offering economy returns to NYC from £303. Tom notes this is 'strikingly low' in comparison to the airline's competitors
Pictured left is Tom in his economy seat, which 'had reasonable leg space'. He said that on his 787-9 Dreamliner flight 301 of the 338 seats had been sold - 'word about the new long-haul budget airline had got out'. Pictured right is the premium economy section
'The service had a free-wheeling feel,' writes Tom. 'An announcement was made of a 15-minute "happy hour" on the way to New York with "Dreamliner" cocktails available for £8.27'
Premium economy seats (above) on Norse have 'generous' 43-inch seat pitches, recline 12 inches and cost from £611 return to New York; 56 of the 343 seats are ‘premium'
Hardly surprising, with economy returns to the Big Apple from £303. Given BA is selling the equivalent from £357 and the next best rival, Play, from about £340, via a 100-minute pitstop in Iceland’s capital, Reykjavik — it is strikingly low.
Norse was founded in 2021. It’s leasing planes previously operated by Norwegian, which went bust during Covid, but for a fraction of the cost as the aircraft owners are keen not to have them unused. So Norse can fly long-haul for low prices. But is it any good?
On board, in economy class, the grey, faux leather seats had reasonable leg space (31-32 in, see comparison chart). Big overhead containers meant no jamming in carry-on bags, which cost an extra £21 each way.
My neighbours in row 30 had a gripe. No headphones were included for the ‘state of the art entertainment experience’. These had to be purchased for £2.90. Hire of blankets was £4.15.
So began the dawning realisation that the rock-bottom £303 fare, only available for short periods when the airline releases tickets (it can be much higher), got you a seat — and not much else.
A hot meal cost £25 at the time of booking; snacks such as sandwiches for £8.27 were available. On the inaugural flight the meal options were chicken, salmon or vegetarian. I went for the salmon with mash and spinach, and it was as good as any dish I have had on a flight, even in ‘posh’ cabins.
What was going on? The answer was that as the airline is Norwegian and the flights to Gatwick begin in Oslo, with some passengers continuing to New York, the salmon is fresh from the fjords. On my return flight, the Thai chicken was awful: tasteless and rubbery.
The above chart compares the Norse offering to New York with other major airlines
No drinks are included in economy (above) on Norse, notes Tom. A 33cl can of Carlsberg was a 'steep' £5.79, a small bottle of wine £7.45, a Coca-Cola £3.31 and mineral water £2.90. 'No wonder the canniest passengers had brought their own sandwiches and filled water bottles at the fountains at Gatwick,' Tom writes
Left is Norse's chief executive, Bjorn Tore Larsen, who led the festivities ahead of the inaugural flight. Further transatlantic routes from Gatwick are due to be announced soon — perhaps to Fort Lauderdale, Orlando and Los Angeles
One of Tom's complaints about his flight was the food. He said his Thai chicken on the return flight 'was awful: tasteless and rubbery'
Tom said that his flight arrived on time at the Big Apple’s JFK Airport. His verdict? 'Grab the cheapest fares, but don’t expect an airline Ritz'
No drinks are included in economy on Norse. A 33cl can of Carlsberg was a steep £5.79, a small bottle of wine £7.45, a Coca-Cola £3.31 and mineral water £2.90.
No wonder the canniest passengers had brought their own sandwiches and filled water bottles at the fountains at Gatwick.
Having acquired headphones, I checked out the films. The selection was decent (I enjoyed recently released King Richard, about tennis stars Serena and Venus Williams), but it was not as extensive as on BA or Virgin.
The service had a free-wheeling feel. An announcement was made of a 15-minute ‘happy hour’ on the way to New York with ‘Dreamliner’ cocktails available for £8.27.
Further transatlantic routes from Gatwick are due to be announced soon — perhaps to Fort Lauderdale, Orlando and Los Angeles — each with economy and ‘premium’ seats.
The latter have generous 43-inch seat pitches, recline 12 inches and cost from £611 return to New York; 56 of the 343 seats are ‘premium’, equivalent to the premium economy offerings of other airlines.
We arrived on time at the Big Apple’s JFK Airport (the journey is around 7hr 20min, depending on the wind direction). So full points for that.
The verdict? Grab the cheapest fares, but don’t expect an airline Ritz — just be patient and keep an eye out for the lowest prices when the airline first releases them online.

Jean was born on March 13, 1941, in Dubuque, Iowa, daughter of Clarence and Eileen (Cole) Breitbach.
Jean was a life-long resident of Dubuque where she graduated from the Immaculate Conception Academy, Class of 1959. After school, Jean went to work as the main baker at Bishops for several years. She truly loved cooking and baking so it was a great place for her to work. She later went to work with Barnstead/Thermolyne as an assembly technician for 28 years until retiring in 2007. In her free time Jean enjoyed listening to 70’s rock music, watching tv, reading and getting outside for a nice long walk. She was also known to try her luck at the casinos on occasion. Jean enjoyed trips with her sisters to Colorado to visit family and going on a hot air balloon excursion for her 40th birthday. She will be greatly missed by all of her family and friends.
Those left to cherish Jean’s memory include her daughter, Michelle Beckman, Johnstown, CO; her grandchildren, Zakh Wilet, New York City, Dr. Kristina (Jason) Hart MD, Oregon, Jordan Bode, Erin Beckman and Amber Beckman, all of Loveland, CO; a great-grandson, Brock Schmitt; her siblings, LoAnn (Duane) VanHement, Bellevue, IA, Dori Breitbach, Dubuque, IA and Mary (Jim) Leslein, Dubuque, IA; and several nieces and nephews.
Jean was preceded in death by her parents; a son, Randy Bruce; and a brother Ronald (Sherry) Breitbach.
The family will thankfully receive your support through greeting cards and memorials in Jean’s memory which may be mailed to Behr Funeral Home, 1491 Main Street, Dubuque, Iowa 52001, Attn. Jean Bruce Family.

From a “nuclear explosion” in the country to North Korea sending troops to Ayodhya, the 102 YouTube channels banned by the government were known to routinely spread disinformation about India to its lakhs of subscribers, and were “monetising fake news”, officials have said.
The government started the crackdown against such YouTube channels for the first time in December last year using its emergency powers under the Information Technology Rules, 2021. Invoking the rules notified in February last year, the government has blocked access to the 102 YouTube channels, numerous websites and social media accounts that used templates and logos of popular television channels to mislead their viewers into believing that the news presented by them was authentic, officials said.
According to a ministry official, the intelligence agencies have been monitoring social media accounts, websites and flagging them to the ministry for action. “Several of these channels were even earning revenue through advertisements and monetising fake news,” the official said.
The latest round of action came last Thursday, when the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting ordered the blocking of eight YouTube channels, including one based in Pakistan, for presenting news such as ‘ban on Bakra-eid celebrations in India’, purported “attacks” on religious places revered by Muslims and joint “invasion” of Turkey by India and Egypt.
A YouTube channel, A M Razvi, talked about “military action on Ajmer Dargah” and “Muslims flying an Islamic flag on a temple”, while Pakistan-based ‘News ki Duniya’ channels claimed that the ‘Qutub Minar mosque’ had been demolished. Another YouTube channel ‘Naya Pakistan Global’ claimed that North Korean leader Kim Jong un had sent his army to Ayodhya.
“The content blocked by the Ministry was found to be detrimental to the sovereignty and integrity of India, security of the State, India’s friendly relations with foreign States, and public order in the country,” a ministry official said. He said the content was covered within the ambit of section 69A of the Information Technology Act, 2000.
The section 69-A empowers the government to restrict access to any content in the interest of sovereignty and integrity of the country. In January this year, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting has ordered blocking of YouTube channels that propagated content to encourage separatism, divide India on the lines of religion, and create animosity among the various sections of the Indian society.
It had identified two networks Apni Duniya Network, which was operating 14 YouTube channels, and Talha Films Network, which was operating 13 YouTube channels. Another YouTube channel ‘Cover Point’ had claimed that India had lost a nuclear warhead and termed it as a “win” for Pakistan and ISI. “All these networks appeared to be operated with a single goal of spreading fake news oriented towards the Indian audience,” the ministry had said.
In December last year, the ministry had said that YouTube channels in question had also posted content on protests on issues such as the three farm laws, the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, in a bid to incite the minorities against the government. “It was also feared that these YouTube channels would be used to post content to undermine the democratic process of the upcoming elections in five states,” the ministry had said, referring to the elections in Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Goa and Manipur in February this year.

Ajmer: Sewerage water flows on the roads of Pushkar town and goes into Pushkar Sarovar in the absence of a drainage system. A pathway was constructed recently in the main market, but the market witnessed waterlogging in the very first monsoon. The priests of Pushkar have staged many protests over this. RTDC chairman Dharmendra Rathore said the drainage and sewerage system in Pushkar will be modernized and the flow of drainage water into the Sarovar will be stopped. With the budgetary allocations by the state government for the development of Pushkar, there will also be beautification of Parikrama Marg, he added.
