Jill Biden tests negative for COVID-19, will go to Delaware
REHOBOTH BEACH, Del. (AP) — First lady Jill Biden has tested negative for COVID-19 and will leave South Carolina, where she had isolated since vacationing with President Joe Biden, and rejoin him at their Delaware beach home, her office said Sunday.
The White House announced on Tuesday that the 71-year-old first lady, who like her husband has been twice-vaccinated and twice-boosted with the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, had tested positive for the coronavirus. She first had symptoms on Monday.
The 79-year-old president recovered from a rebound case of the virus on Aug. 7.
Jill Biden was prescribed the antiviral drug Paxlovid and isolated at the Kiawah Island vacation home for five days before receiving negative results from two consecutive COVID-19 tests, spokeswoman Elizabeth Alexander said. Jill Biden planned to travel to Delaware later Sunday.

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. — A Little League World Series player who seriously injured his head when he fell out of his top bunk in dorms at the world series complex has FaceTimed with his coach and continues to improve, the coach said Friday.
Mark Ence, the manager for Snow Canyon, Utah, said he told his 12-year-old player, Easton Oliverson, that he loved him and Easton said he loved the coach back.
"It was great to hear his voice," Ence said.
Easton has been recovering in the hospital since the accident Monday. His MRI on Wednesday night came back normal, he has begun walking and walked to the bathroom on his own Friday morning, Ence said.
"I'm not familiar with the recovery process of that sort of injury," Ence said. "But he definitely is improving and the family wanted to let everyone know that they are grateful for the thoughts and prayers and they feel like the prayers are working."
Ence spoke with reporters hours before Utah, representing the Mountain Region, played its first game of the tournament against Tennessee from the Southeast Region.
With Easton's condition improving so quickly, his father, Jace was back in the dugout to resume his role as an assistant coach. In addition, Easton's younger brother Brogan was added to the team's roster.
"You're allowed to have 14 on a roster," Ence said. "We had 13 and we were able to get Easton's little brother Brogan to come and be with our team, so he arrived yesterday. The family is extremely excited. I think it's going to be huge for the family in terms of the healing process to have Brogan be there."
Easton was remembered during warmups. Utah did not send a player out to left field, Easton's position, and Tennessee took the field in Utah ballcaps.
During pregame introductions, Brogan received rousing applause from a big crowd at Lamade Stadium. When Utah received commemorative medals for participating, Jace received Easton's medal on his behalf to a standing ovation.
In the bottom of the fifth, Brogan pinch hit to a rousing cheer from the entire stadium that lasted about 30 seconds. Following the 10-year-old's at bat, he once again received applause from fans as he made his way back to the dugout.
"It gives you a good feeling that people can cheer for an opponent like little Brogan," Ence said. "Even though you're playing against them, there's things bigger than baseball."
Utah lost 11-2, but even in defeat the coaching staff and parents have worked to keep their players' attention on upcoming games and enjoying the Little League World Series experience.
"Being kids they bounce back pretty quick. They've enjoyed it here and stayed busy," Ence said. "It's definitely been more stressful for the parents, but the kids are doing great."

- Mendy howler handed Leeds a gift
- Rodrigo added breathing room before half time
- Chelsea failed to muster any challenge in second 45
WHAT HAPPENED? Leeds took control in four first half minutes as Brenden Aaronson punished Edouard Mendy for taking too long on the ball before Rodrigo nodded home from a freekick. Jack Harrison added a third in the second half as Leeds stood strong and denied Chelsea any real opportunities.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Chelsea now have four points from their opening three games, whilst Leeds have risen to second position in the table following an electric start to the season. Leeds are one of only five teams to have won two of their first three fixtures this season.
ALL EYES ON: After his home debut last week Chelsea fans would have been hoping for a bit more from Kalidou Koulibaly. Instead the defender had a nightmare being beaten easily by Aaronson in the first half and giving away a free-kick, not being composed on the ball and topping it all off with a red card with minutes left on the clock. One to forget for the Senegalese captain...
DID YOU KNOW? It was the first time that under Thomas Tuchel that Chelsea had gone in 2-0 down at half time. Chelsea have never won after being 2-0 down at half-time in the Premier League (D-3, L-43)
WHAT'S THE VIBE?
Leeds narrowly avoided relegation last season, and have now picked up seven points from their opening three games.
What a difference a full pre-season under Jesse Marsch has made at #LUFC. Unrecognisable from the Leeds side #CFC comfortably beat in May.

Kai Havertz had a tough afternoon leading the Chelsea line.
I don’t think there’s a single Premier League player whose reputation has been influenced more by one game than Kai Havertz. Take away the Champions League Final, has he really been that much better than Werner/Pulisic/Ziyech? I’m not so sure.

Chelsea have had a mixed bag of performances so far this season, with this performance against Leeds a far-cry from their battle against Tottenham last week.
Chelsea have had some luck in playing an extremely weak Everton on the opening day and against a better team this could have been the outcome then.
— Nizaar Kinsella (@NizaarKinsella) August 21, 2022
They massively raised their game against Tottenham, but have dipped back down in a hostile away atmosphere against a lesser team.
The Blues are still active in the transfer market, and may need a signing or two in order to raise their game in the coming weeks.

(iSeeCars) – We’ve all heard the advice that you should never accept the first offer. This wisdom is especially true in the world of used car buying. Some car shoppers are shrewd negotiators, while others cringe at the thought of the negotiation process. Regardless of your personal preferences, negotiating on a used car can save you a lot of money and is well worth the effort.
How can you stretch a deal to its limit and get a fair price for the used car without prompting a seller to walk away from the deal? Here are some suggestions and tips that will help you in negotiating the lowest price for a used car.
Get a Vehicle History Report
Obtaining a vehicle history report from providers such a CarFax or AutoCheck can give you a better understanding of the condition of the vehicle and help you anticipate issues you may have in the future. You can get a vehicle history report from the dealership, or you can get one yourself through a number of online tools like the iSeeCars VIN check report. You may uncover that a car has been in an accident or has sustained damage, which can provide you with negotiation opportunities. While you should be wary of cars that have been in serious accidents, those with minor cosmetic damage can provide significant savings.
Run a VIN Check
A vehicle history report provides just some of the important information about a used car, but it doesn’t provide the complete picture. Running a VIN check will complement the vehicle history report and provide all the important information about a used car to help shoppers make an informed purchase decision.
How do you do a VIN check? Most vehicle listings include a car’s vehicle identification number (VIN), or if you are looking at a vehicle it can be found on the dash under the windshield (usually near the driver’s side front roof pillar). There are many VIN checks to choose from, but the free VIN check from iSeeCars is the most comprehensive. It provides an important pre-purchase analysis with information including:
- Price Analysis: Compares the seller’s price of the vehicle to its estimated market value to help you understand if the vehicle is a good deal. It also shows a graph of similar vehicles currently for sale, which can be used as leverage to get the dealer to lower the price.
- Mileage Analysis: Compares the vehicle’s mileage to the average for the vehicle. This helps determine if the vehicle has more miles than what is typical, which could present a negotiation opportunity.
- Listing History: Shows how long the vehicle has been for sale and gives the average time it takes similar vehicles to sell. The longer a vehicle stays on the market, the more negotiating leverage you may have.
- Supply Analysis: Gives the number of similar vehicles for sale in your area. The more vehicles there are, the more negotiating power you have.
- Similar Vehicles for Sale: Compares the vehicle’s price, mileage, and market value against other vehicles currently for sale.
This information will empower you to understand how much you should be paying for the vehicle and if it is a good deal. If you are knowledgeable about a vehicle it will show the seller that you are a serious buyer who is interested in finding a deal, and they will be more likely to lower the price. Also pay attention to how long the car has been on the market compared to the average for similar vehicles. A dealer will be more likely to accept a lower price for a car that has been on the market for a long time just to move it off the lot.
Determine Market Value
Knowing a car’s market value lets you know whether a dealer’s asking price is fair or whether a seller is pricing a car above market value. A new or used car’s market value tells you what similar cars are selling for. iSeeCars.com includes a car’s market value in each listing and compares the asking price relative to market value. iSeeCars calculates the market price by analyzing the prices of similar cars for sale locally and applying a mathematical model that also takes into account important factors like price, mileage, condition, and specific features a car may or may not have. Cars are clearly labeled as below and above market value to indicate which are the best deals and which leave more room for negotiation to help get the best price.
Along with iSeeCars, there are other sites that calculate market value such as Kelley Blue Book (KBB) or Edmunds. KBB offers three prices: private party price, trade-in price, and retail price. A reasonable price to pay or offer is usually between the private party price and the retail price.
Get Pre-Approved for Financing
If you get preapproved for an auto loan before visiting the used car lot, it will show that you are a serious buyer. You may also secure a lower interest rate through your own bank or credit union than what the dealer can offer. You can also use it as leverage to see if the dealer can provide an even lower rate on a car loan. Just beware of longer term loans. While they offer a lower monthly payment, you will end up paying more in interest over the life of the loan.
Ignore the “Monthly Payment” Ploy
One of the most common tactics a dealer will leverage is the “monthly payment” question. “What’s your monthly budget?” They know many shoppers think of their car expenses in terms of a monthly payment, and they use this to increase the car’s price, increase the interest rate, or slip extras into the deal. Common dealer lines include, “The extended warranty will only cost you another $8 a month. Now that’s cheap insurance for peace of mind, right?” Don’t play their game. Tell them you will be basing your purchase decision off the total price of the car, not the monthly payment.
Don’t Show Emotion
This is an odd but important step to remember. Whether dealing with used car dealerships or used cars for sale by owner, don’t let them know when you’re excited or that you definitely want the car. The car salesman will be less likely to negotiate if they have you pegged as a sure sale. Let them know that you are also considering several other vehicles from other sellers. You can even have other listings for reference so they know you are considering other dealerships.
Perform a Thorough Inspection
When you see the vehicle in person, be sure to give it a close look to see if there are any glaring problems, like rust, mismatched paint colors, leaks, or worn-out tires. You should also look for signs of poor alignment like uneven tire wear, which could mean that there is a suspension problem. If the vehicle passes your first test, take it for a test drive to a trusted mechanic for a more thorough examination. (Refer to our helpful guide on how to inspect a used car.)
If you find any issues, you can use them as leverage to ask the dealer for a better price.
No-Haggle? No Problem
Some dealers like Carvana and CarMax offer no-haggle pricing, which means their advertised price is final. So before you get your game face on for the negotiation process, make sure the dealer doesn’t have a no-haggle pricing policy. If haggling is not an option, there may be other opportunities for negotiating, such as your trade-in value or extras like new tires or a second key fob. (To learn more about the major no-haggle dealerships check out our CarMax Vs. Carvana guide.)
Determine an Offer Price and Your Maximum Price
You’ve armed yourself with data, lined up your own financing, and kept your emotions in check. Now it’s time to begin the car negotiation process. If you’ve determined the seller is asking a fair price, offer to buy the car for some amount off the sticker price. Make sure that the price you are being quoted is the out-the-door price, which includes all fees and other charges. You don’t want to negotiate and be surprised by a higher figure later. And even after you confirm the car’s price, remember there will be extras you can’t avoid, like taxes and registration fees that are usually rolled into the final amount you’ll pay at the time of purchase.
Determine the maximum price, also known as a target price, that you’re willing to pay by factoring in market price, any repair costs that may be required, and your budget. Don’t offer the maximum price you’re willing to pay as the first price. Make your first offer price $500+ below what you’re willing to pay. (You may be willing to pay more—just don’t let them know!) If they counter-offer, be willing to raise your price a small increment at a time.
Explain Your Reasoning for a Lower Price
If you determine that the car is overpriced, tell them you are still interested but aren’t willing to pay above market value. Then tell them what your research determined to be the market price. Present your offer to them and let them know you will look for a car elsewhere if they aren’t willing to lower their price. Private sellers especially may be particularly worried about losing the sale, and offer to lower their price! They don’t have regular customer traffic like a dealership.
Be Prepared to Walk Away
Car shoppers often forget their most powerful weapon when buying a car: the power to walk away. If a dealership knows you’re a serious buyer on the cusp of making a car purchase, the thought of you making that purchase somewhere else is kryptonite for a dealer. They HATE the idea of another seller getting your money. Use that! Make it clear you’re ready to buy but also make it clear you’re ready to walk away if they can’t meet your price, or treat you well during the process. Car shoppers often think the dealership is in control. But they want your money, which puts you in control.
Beware of the Extended Warranty and Other Add-Ons
Regardless of whether you secure financing through the car dealer or through an outside lender, the dealership finance sales manager will give you a hard sell for an extended warranty. Extended warranties are seldom worth the extra cost, so stand firm and don’t fall for the salesperson’s pressure tactics. The same holds true for other add-ons that they might try to sell you, like entertainment systems, accessories, GAP insurance, and tire packages. To learn more check out our guide on Extended Car Warranties: Are they Worth It? article to understand if and when extended car warranties are worth it.
How to Negotiate the Price of a New Car
Negotiating the upfront price of a new car is similar to negotiating the price of a used car, but there is no guesswork involved on the condition of the vehicle. As such, there is less wiggle room, but getting a lower price is still possible.
Do Your Research
Find the MSRP of the vehicle on iSeeCars.com, Edmunds, or Kelley Blue Book before you head to the dealership. Be sure to research for any rebates or special offers. Also find the invoice price of the vehicle, which is what the dealership paid for the car. This information can be found on the Edmunds website.
Negotiate off the Invoice Price
Use the invoice price as your starting point for the negotiation. Any figure above this price means a profit for the dealership. Your target price should be 2 percent above the invoice price, so you can start lower and raise your offer until you hit that target. Just like the negotiation process for a used car, you should have a best price quote from another dealership to show the dealer that you are willing to take your business elsewhere.
Bottom Line
Be confident in the negotiation and do not be afraid to walk away if the purchase price isn’t right. Your best line of defense from overpaying for a car is by conducting thorough research. A car salesperson is more likely to lower the price if you give a compelling reason why. And even if they are unwilling to lower the price, it’s always worth the ask. This is also true if the price of the car is below market value, it still doesn’t hurt to ask for a lower price. As long as you’ve done your research and armed yourself with the necessary information about the car, the chances are good you won’t get ripped off, and a little negotiation effort on your part could result in a great deal on your car purchase.
Negotiating is just one part of the complex used car buying process. Check out our comprehensive How to Buy a Used Car guide for more tips on finding the right car at the right price.

POKROVSK, Ukraine (AP) — Echoing down the corridors of eastern Ukraine’s Pokrovsk Perinatal Hospital are the loud cries of tiny Veronika.
Born nearly two months prematurely weighing 1.5 kilograms (3 pounds, 4 ounces), the infant receives oxygen through a nasal tube to help her breathe while ultraviolet lamps inside an incubator treat her jaundice.
Dr. Tetiana Myroshnychenko carefully connects the tubes that allow Veronika to feed on her mother’s stored breast milk and ease her hunger.
Before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in late February, three hospitals in government-controlled areas of the country’s war-torn Donetsk region had facilities to care for premature babies. One was hit by a Russian airstrike and the other had to close as a result of the fighting ‒ leaving only the maternity hospital in the coal mining town of Pokrovsk still operating.
Myroshnychenko, the site’s only remaining neonatologist, now lives at the hospital. Her 3-year-old son divides the week between staying at the facility and with his father, a coal miner, at home.
The doctor explains why it’s now impossible to leave: Even when the air-raid sirens sound, the babies in the hospital’s above-ground incubation ward cannot be disconnected from their lifesaving machines.
“If I carry Veronika to the shelter, that would take five minutes. But for her, those five minutes could be critical,” Myroshnychenko says.
Hospital officials say the proportion of births occurring prematurely or with complications has roughly doubled this year compared to previous times, blaming stress and rapidly worsening living standards for taking a toll on the pregnant women still left in the area.
Russia and Moscow-backed separatists now occupy just over half the Donetsk region, which is similar in size to Sicily or Massachusetts. Pokrovsk is still in a Ukrainian government-controlled area 60 kilometers (40 miles) west of the front lines.
Inside the hospital’s maternity wards, talk of the war is discouraged.
“Everything that happens outside this building of course concerns us, but we don’t talk about it,” Myroshnychenko said. “Their main concern right now is the baby.”
Although fighting in the Dontesk region started back in 2014, when Russia-backed separatists began battling the government and taking over parts of the region, new mothers are only now being kept in the hospital for longer periods because there’s little opportunity for them to receive care once they have been discharged.
Among them is 23-year-old Inna Kyslychenko, from Pokrovsk. Rocking her 2-day-old daughter Yesenia, she was considering joining the region’s massive evacuation westward to safer areas in Ukraine when she leaves the hospital. Many essential services in government-held areas of Donetsk — heat, electricity, water supplies — have been damaged by Russian bombardment, leaving living conditions that are only expected to worsen as the winter grows near.
“I fear for the little lives, not only for ours, but for all the children, for all of Ukraine,” Kyslychenko said.
More than 12 million people in Ukraine have fled their homes due to the war, according to U.N. relief agencies. About half have been displaced within Ukraine and the rest have moved to other European countries.
Moving the maternity hospital out of Pokrovsk, however, is not an option.
“If the hospital was relocated, the patients would still have to remain here,” said chief physician Dr. Ivan Tsyganok, who kept working even when the town was being hit by Russian rocket fire.
“Delivering babies is not something that can be stopped or rescheduled,” he noted.
The nearest existing maternity facility is in Ukraine’s neighboring Dnipropetrovsk region, a 3 1/2 hour drive along secondary roads, a journey considered too risky for women in late-term pregnancy.
Last week, 24-year-old Andrii Dobrelia and his wife Maryna, 27, reached the hospital from a nearby village. Looking anxious, they talked little as doctors carried out a series of tests and then led Maryna to the operating room for a C-section. Tsyganok and his colleagues hurriedly changed their clothes and prepared for the procedure.
Twenty minutes later, the cries of a newborn baby boy, Timur, could be heard. After an examination, Timur was taken to meet his father in an adjoining room.
Almost afraid to breathe, Andrii Dobrelia tenderly kissed Timur’s head and whispered to him. As the newborn calmed down on his father’s chest, tears came to Andrii’s eyes.
As the war reaches the six-month mark, Tsyganok and his colleagues says they have a more hopeful reason to stay.
“These children we are bringing into the world will be the future of Ukraine,” says Tsyganok. “I think their lives will be different to ours. They will live outside war.” ___ Follow AP’s coverage of the war in Ukraine at https://apnews.com/hub/russia-ukraine | https://www.wate.com/health/ap-health/on-ukraines-front-line-a-fight-to-save-premature-babies/ | 2022-08-21T15:13:42Z | https://www.wate.com/health/ap-health/on-ukraines-front-line-a-fight-to-save-premature-babies/ | false | 30 |
He also claimed that Kosovo Albanian “gangs” need to be stopped from crossing into northern Kosovo, where most of the Kosovo Serbs live. He offered no proof for the claim.
There are widespread fears in the West that Russia could encourage its ally Serbia into an armed intervention in northern Kosovo that would further destabilize the Balkans and shift at least some world and NATO attention from Russia’s war in Ukraine.
Nearly 4,000 NATO-led peacekeepers have been stationed in Kosovo following the 1998-99 war and any armed intervention there by Serbia or Russia would mean a major escalation of a simmering conflict in Europe.
Following the collapse of the EU-mediated talks, NATO peacekeeping troops in Kosovo have been deployed at main roads in its north, saying they are ready to protect the freedom of movement for all sides.
Tensions between Serbia and Kosovo soared anew last month when the Kosovo government led by Prime Minister Albin Kurti declared that Serbian identity documents and vehicle license plates would no longer be valid in Kosovo’s territory. Serbia has been implementing the same measures for Kosovo citizens crossing into Serbia for the past 10 years.
Minority Serbs in Kosovo reacted with anger to the proposed changes, putting up roadblocks, sounding air raid sirens and firing guns into the air and in the direction of Kosovo police officers. No one was injured.
Under apparent pressure from the West, Kurti postponed implementation of the measure for a month to Sept. 1, when more trouble is expected if a compromise is not reached by then.
Vucic said Serbia will “work hard” to reach a “compromise solution in the next 10 days" and accused the Kosovo leadership of “only being interested in abolishing any trace of the Serbian state in Kosovo."
Vucic also claimed, again without proof, that Kosovo's government wanted “the final removal of the Serbian people from Kosovo" — something that has been repeatedly denied by Kosovo officials.

Love Island's Jack Keating has revealed why his famous dad Ronan Keating was fuming with him after his ITV2 villa stay.
The Casa Amor bombshell has opened up exclusively to the Daily Star about why his Boyzone star father was furious with him after he starred on the show.
Talking about his family set-up, Jack said: "I live with my dad and his wife Storm and our baby brother and sister and my sister Missy also, there's a whole big house of us.

"But of course, I'm under their rules it's hard obviously I'm 23 and used to live by myself before I moved out here but it was a bit of a shock to the system before we first moved over but we all get on really well."
Adding what Ronan thought of him on the show, he explained: "He was enjoying it and loving it and was proud of me beside the fact I said he was retired halfway through the show.
"He was pretty delighted with everything else that I said.
"But no he was not happy one bit that I said that he said he almost fell out of his chair when he first heard that.
"I was definitely in the dog house for a little bit when I first got back."
The Irish TV star also revealed that more "flirting" went on between his co-stars Gemma Owen and Billy Brown than fans knew of.
Jack said he witnessed a bit of a bond brewing between the Islanders which was not disclosed truly on the show.
The Islander said: "From what I saw in our villa in Casa Amor, I know Billy and Gemma got on really well.
"I know that he came back into the main villa, with Movie Night, and things got very awkward between the three of them. But those two definitely vibed big time."
He added: "I wouldn't say it was legit-legit but there was definitely some more going on, definitely, it's kinda hard to say.
"I mean, yeah, there was definitely more flirting going on and some of the lads were like 'woah' at points, but it wasn't too serious where you could actually see them cracking on but there were definitely some moments where you were like Billy and Gemma, you never know, you never know."

There was a time when I didn’t have much opinion on paying for college with student loans. That was before the advent of email and thousands of messages, all with a similar subject line: “Help! I’m drowning in student loan debt!”
That was before I learned that about 85% of college graduates do not end up working in their major. That was before I heard from Jim P., who took all the student loans he could get to pay for college and law school. He assumed he’d quickly land a cushy big-bucks job and pay back $200,000. The fifth time he failed the bar exam, he gave up on being a lawyer. But the debt goes on.
That was before I met Peter K., who became a chiropractor on borrowed funds. He couldn’t stand the profession once he got into it. Now he’s teaching high school math. Too bad teachers don’t make enough money to service $160,000 in student debt. But the debt goes on.
People are also reading…
That was before I heard from the Nebraska couple with $60,000 in student loans. They were going to be teachers. Then the baby came along, and the teaching position didn’t. It’s all they can do to keep food on the table now that the family has grown to five. They’ve exhausted all their deferment and forbearance options. Their monthly payment is twice the house payment. The stress has all but blown that family apart. But the debt goes on, and so could I, but I think you get the point.
It’s not as if student loans and significant credit card balances are mandatory graduation requirements. You don’t have to borrow your way through college. It is possible to graduate debt-free, but it takes hard work. And you’ll have to buck a financial system that encourages students to take the easy way out by diving into a lifetime of debt.
The secret to graduating debt-free is to use every strategy imaginable to get the cost as low as possible so you can pay as you go. That could mean working two jobs while carrying a full load every semester. It may mean working spring break, winter break, Christmas holidays and every summer. The definition of college does not include “a life of ease.”
You will never regret working harder than you’ve ever worked in your life for four years, and then graduate knowing your degree is paid in full.
You will always regret that you chose to live it up free and easy on student loans for four years, graduating with a legal obligation to spend the rest of your life paying for it. Does anything about that make sense to you?
No. 1: Start college while in high school. Take all the free advanced placement classes you can in high school to help knock down college tuition costs. Plan it right, and you can enter college as a debt-free sophomore with one year paid in full.
AP classes require students to take a rigorous test at the end of the class. You can qualify for one to two semesters’ worth of college credit if you score well. You may also get a bump in your grade point average.
No. 2: Community colleges. Every state offers two-year colleges, typically referred to as community colleges. This is the place to get all your lower-division prerequisite courses at cheap tuition rates that will transfer to the college or university of choice for the two final years. That means you’ll have two more years to save up for the more expensive finish.
No. 3: State colleges and universities. Most four-year state schools offer an excellent affordable education. Our older son graduated from a prestigious California state university with a degree in film. He lived at home and graduated debt-free. Oh, and did I mention Jeremy Hunt has gone on to win numerous awards, including an Emmy?
No. 4: Work at the school. Many colleges give discounted or free tuition to employees’ family members. There are lots of nonteaching jobs on a big campus. I’ve heard from many parents who left their regular employment to work at the school their college students would attend.
No. 5 : Grants. A grant is a flat-out gift of money to be applied to tuition, with no requirement to repay. The most common is the Pell Grant, money from the federal government to assist low-income undergraduates. Learn more at Finaid.org.
No. 6: Work-study programs. Under a federal program, work-study provides on-campus jobs for students. There is no requirement to repay the money even if the student does not graduate.
No. 7: Military. An excellent education is often a benefit for students willing to enlist. For example, the military will put you through medical school if you enter as an officer and agree to stay for some time upon completing your residency.
No. 8: Apply for scholarships. All kinds of scholarships go unawarded every year. Many are not based on need but rather ability or even ethnic heritage. But don’t get suckered into paying a service $800 or more to do what you can do yourself: search!
As a general rule of thumb, if a scholarship or a scholarship-search service asks you for money upfront, it’s probably a scam.
Start searching now if you are a junior or even a sophomore in high school. And even if you’ve already started college, many scholarships are available for your last years. Check out these scholarship search sites:

Oleksandr Usyk responds to Tyson Fury’s claim he would beat both Ukrainian AND Anthony Joshua in same night
OLEKSANDR USYK has hit back after Tyson Fury claimed he could beat the Ukrainian and Anthony Joshua in the same night.
Fury mocked his heavyweight rivals following Usyk's rematch win on points against AJ in Saudi Arabia.
Fury said: "After watching that, the both of them were s***e. It was one of the worst heavyweight title fights I have ever seen.
"It was bulls***. Come on! I'd beat annihilate both of them on the same night. F***ing s***e.
"Get your f***ing chequebook out because the Gypsy King is here to stay, forever."
Usyk, who wants to face Fury in an undisputed decider, had a blunt response.
He quipped: "That's what he's dreaming every day. I'm gonna beat his ass."
Fury, 34, announced his retirement from boxing in April after knocking out Dillian Whyte, also 34.
But it has not taken him long to be tempted back, following Usyk's win over Joshua, 32, his second in two years.
It would promise the sport's first ever four-belt heavyweight unification.

And Usyk, 35, appeared to suggest he would be the one walking away if he cannot face Fury.
He revealed: "I'm sure that Tyson Fury is not retired yet.
"I'm sure, I'm convinced he wants to fight me. I want to fight him and if I'm not fighting Tyson Fury, I'm not fighting at all." | https://www.the-sun.com/sport/6046685/oleksandr-usyk-tyson-fury-anthony-joshua/ | 2022-08-21T15:31:19Z | https://www.the-sun.com/sport/6046685/oleksandr-usyk-tyson-fury-anthony-joshua/ | false | 4 |

By M. Kay Oluwole
The root of most political problems is economic. If we do not get the economy right, it will be difficult to deal with most of our other national problems. The economy is a necessary but not a sufficient condition to resolve all other national issues. Economics ordinarily involves the generation, distribution and management of resources, mostly financial. Politics, simply put, revolves around who gets what (resource), why, how, and when. The combination of economics and politics is the central issue of leadership and management, and the yardstick mostly used in the assessment of success or failure of leadership. For a longtime, we have been mired in the cocktail of economic decline and political conflict. It is time we build the state and forge a nation. As we struggle to build bridges of cooperation and break down walls of division, equity should remain our guiding star.
The constant teetering on economic disaster, political unrest, ravaging insecurity, the erosion of nationhood and threats to balkanize the country are combined factors that lead to loss of national spirit. Many people are living on the fringe of hand-to-mouth exigency. There is the fear of real economic collapse, loss of confidence, and loss of hope, which may ultimately lead to loss of patriotism. Hope, and only robust hope will restore our lost innocence and rekindle our confidence in the polity.
Nigeria has long been identified as a country with great potentials, and even as a diamond in the rough. We have superlative indices of economic potentials, and geopolitical power going for us. The country is the largest concentration of black people in the world with a population of about 207 million, the 7th most populous country in the world with a median age of 18 years.
The human resources in Nigeria include a well-educated, talented, dynamic, ambitious and adventurous workforce, presenting an enviable pool of labor force waiting for opportunities to participate in moving the country to a designation economy of choice for foreign investors and a haven for her citizens. One-in-6 black Africans is most likely to be a Nigerian. With a Gross Domestic Product, GDP, of $432.3 billion; and GDP/capita of $2,097.09, Nigeria is considered the biggest economy in Africa.
Despite the abundance of natural resources like oil, arable land and a willing, dynamic and motivated workforce, the country remains in the quagmire of economic difficulties and political turmoil. After more than 60 years of political independence, the country has not become a nation in the real sense of the word.
Our problems include, insecurity restless separatist agitation, tribalism, corruption, a wobbly healthcare system, a torpid economy, and a crumbling foundation for a genuine nationhood. The country remains an atomistic collection of tribes, states and zones which have never agreed irrevocably on the basis of her existence as a nation. There is the national question. There is the leadership question.
Given these stressful conditions, it is time for Nigeria to have a rebirth or Renaissance (reboot, reawakening, renewal or reset) and seek new ways of moving forward to a more just and humane society where everyone has a shot at a fulfilling life with basic human needs and security. It is time to live like hopeful human beings and citizens of a hopeful society and not like yahoos fighting for carrions. However difficult it may be, we have to move the economy from an unreliable rentier economy to a productive one that will respond to the needs of our bourgeoning population in a competitive world.
. The Renaissance was a period, between the 14th and 17th Centuries in Europe that was characterized by the rebirth of culture, the arts, science and economics. The Renaissance emphasized the creation of citizens who were able to join the civil life of their community. One of its major achievements was the invention of the PRINTING PRESS while a major banner bearer of the period was arguably the world’s most popular painting, the Mona Lisa, created by the inimitable Leonardo da Vinci.
For the country to embark on the search for a renaissance, The Leadership matters because it serves as the arrowhead of inspiration of any rebirth or reset. For the renaissance to succeed, the leadership must be visionary, competent, incorruptible, fair, just and almost sacrificial in a larger sense. Since the renaissance involves the change of culture, it is an enormous task that takes time to accomplish. Cultural change is the most difficult transformation to effect in a society. The renaissance will entail sacrifices, acceptance, and pain comparable to labor pains during a new birth of a baby. The end result will be worth the pain and difficulties.
The discovery of petroleum in commercial quantity at Oloibiri, Bayelsa State in 1956 transformed the country from an Agro-Federation to a Petro-Republic with enduring consequences. Since then the country has suffered from two main ailments: The Dutch Disease and the Stockholm syndrome. A possible third horseman, the two-year old Covid-19 pandemic, a more or less global political stress test that has exposed the soft underbelly of our healthcare sector and laid bare the Achille’s heels of a very unequal world. However, we hope that the covid-19 pandemic is temporary and will be more manageable with time.
Simply put, the Dutch disease happened with the discovery of oil. The new-found oil wealth led to a near-abandonment of agriculture, hitherto the mainstay of the economy, leading to excessive importation of food, and the concomitant depletion of hard-earned foreign currencies, deindustrialization and subsequent massive underemployment and unemployment. Stagflation (slow economic growth with high unemployment) creeped in and it is now becoming a permanent feature of the economy in the face of a growing population. And yes, it is the economy stupid, always.
The second ailment, the Stockholm syndrome is more of an emotional response that is typified by developing trust and a positive feeling towards our abusers and captors, mostly the political/leadership elites, the stewards of our economic resources. This response is usually done intentionally or inadvertently by enabling and celebrating the greed of the leadership elite, rationalizing their mismanagement, insincerity, rent-seeking behavior and calculated generosity with all the attendant bravado and flamboyance.
NIGERIA is a country of immense potentials in terms of her natural endowments and her human capital. Despite our potentials, we have not manifested our national destiny in the comity of nations. The country cannot remain a perennial Peter Pan in development. We need to grow up and occupy our rightful at the table of advanced (functioning) nations. It is time to ask, why, our progress is slow, lagging behind that of our contemporaries.
We cannot continue with business as usual and expect a different outcome. It is time to take the bull by the horns, tackle our problems and make the necessary sacrifices. The leadership must sacrifice. The followership must sacrifice. It has become customary to lay our blames on the traditional leadership- the president, elected members and the unelected bureaucratic elites. Both the leadership, and the followership are us. They come from our common pool. Our collective leadership is nothing but a mirror-image of our society.
To improve our current state of affairs, we need a change that positively impacts our culture. Everyone has a stake in the game of building a united, prosperous nation, regardless of the many obstacles that we face.
The RENAISSANCE would be instigated by the leadership at the apex of which is the elected national president. The leadership type will not matter as much as the leadership character. One of the reasons we are lagging behind our peers is that the country has never recognized a widely accepted champion of the national cause, who represents the collective aspirations of the nation. Our original sin is the lack of intertribal trust which led to tribalism which in turn led to our fissiparous tendencies and the inability to become a nation.
The circuitous motion of the country did not start today. It started a long time ago and we have not been able to get on a forward-looking path to place us on the course to our desired destination of unity and progress. We tried the Westminster parliamentary style of democracy, it did not work. We were under military dictatorships for over twenty years, it did not liberate us from want and deprivation. We currently operate the presidential system of democracy, so far, it has not delivered the expected results, but we are determined. It goes without saying that the problem is not the type of government, but with us, the practitioners of the system. Certainly, if the issue is not in our stars, it must be in the way we manage our affairs, that is our political culture. The Renaissance will attempt a rebirth, a retool or a reset of our political culture and that will become the cornerstone of leadership.
Whether the leader of our Renaissance be a technocrat, philosopher-king, dotcom wizard, political guru, an economic rainmaker, or a mixture of all, he/she must be able to relate a workable vision to both bin-men and CEOs and to peons and big deals. The common man must understand and buy into the national vision.
The leadership must combine competence with integrity as one without the other will lead to further frustration and anger. Possession of either of these two characteristics alone is a necessary, but not a sufficient condition for a successful leadership. Every leader of our renaissance should strive to maintain the reputation of a statesman without forfeiting that of a saint.
The original intertribal distrust led us to all sorts of missteps and retardation. In a world that is becoming a global village, competition in every aspect has become the watchword for progress. However, due to our distrust, we have chosen the easy way out while abandoning competitive strategies in our economic struggles, that put us in a sorry state of waiting or looking for crumbs from the advanced nations, occasionally bordering on mendicancy. However, we can be both competitive and inclusive at the same time.
Our renaissance cannot be swift. It is not a revolution; it is a process that will take time. Our renaissance will gradually drain the swamp and reseed the field by a gradual process of regeneration and renewal. It is not the work of a moment, or the work a two-term leader. It should be an on-going process. It must be a sustainable cause, at times slow, at times sizzling, but never ceasing.
To be on the path to competitive progress in science, technology and economy, our renaissance leadership must display vision, competence and integrity. Enough of political logjam. It is time for an economic breakthrough.

I’m a gardening expert – this is how to get your plants to grow bigger and look healthier in no time
ALTHOUGH it might seem counter intuitive to cut the plants you want to grow, pruning is vital for big healthy plants in your garden.
When you prune can make all the difference though, here's how to do it right.
British plant food brand Phostrogen® told Express.co.uk how to make the most out of pruning.
They said: "Pruning means to cut and trim back leaves, branches and dead matter from your plants, shrubs and trees.
“Yet this simple task offers a wide range of benefits - it improves plant health, prevents disease, encourages more growth, and allows you to train your foliage."
If you're unsure if part of your plants need to be pruned it's easy enough to check, just look if the bark is "brown or dying."
According to he pros, "other tell-tale signs include not producing buds or leaves during growing season, and even underdeveloped or dead root systems.”
Pruning can help plats focus on new growth rather than using all of the energy on old, dying leaves and branches.
“It also allows more light and oxygen to get to the shrub, further encouraging more growth.
“Pruning is also essential if your shrubs are beginning to take over an area of the garden or are overhanging walkways, paths and entry points, to allow clear access and to remove any safety risks," the pros explained.

“This part of general landscaping maintenance also improves the overall aesthetic of your garden."
Pruning regularly can help encourage "bushier growth", the pros recommend every other month during growth periods.
Climbing shrubs, herbs and lavender can be pruned after flowering in August.
After pruning adding a fertiliser will help the plant grow and replace vital neutriants. | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/fabulous/9338349/gardening-expert-plants-grow-bigger/ | 2022-08-21T15:36:55Z | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/fabulous/9338349/gardening-expert-plants-grow-bigger/ | false | 4 |
Catering to the rising opportunities in ship repair and construction, Cochin Shipyard Ltd (CSL) has geared up to meet the emerging demand from domestic as well as overseas customers. The public sector entity is now getting ready to commission its new ₹1,800 crore dry-dock facility by 2024.
The new 300 m x 60 m dry dock, which will come up in 15 acres in Kochi, has the capability to build bigger vessels including aircraft carriers, said Madhu S Nair, Chairman and Managing Director, CSL.
INS Vikrant
The recent delivery of INS Vikrant to Indian Navy has given the confidence to go for another aircraft carrier especially when the Indian Navy plans to induct more aircraft carriers, Nair said at a meet organised by the Ernakulam Press Club as part of Takeoff Kerala series. “The yard is now confident of building a second aircraft carrier in seven to eight years”, he said.
INS Vikrant constructed at a cost of $3 billion was completed in 15 years against 13 years as originally planned. The construction time for building such vessels by the UK is 10 years and the cost was around $5.50 billion, he said.
Commissioning of Project
The work order for the aircraft carrier was signed in 2004 and steel cutting in 2005. However, Russia’s reluctance to provide steel delayed the project by about two years. Later, the country developed warship-grade high-strength steel indigenously.
On the international ship repair facility, he said the ₹942 crore project at the 42 acres leased from Cochin Port Authority is going on as part of the yard’s expansion plans. The ship repair facility will enable berthing of six medium sized vessels at a time. The facility was expected to be commissioned by December 2023.
He pointed out that 77 per cent work in the project is over and the remaining work will be taken by the yard from the contracting firm because of the delay in completion. The platform shiplift is awaiting delivery from Vietnam. The commissioning of the project will enable CSL to enhance its ship repair capacity from 100 to 150 every year. There are also plans to set up a Maritime Park like the one in Singapore, he added.
The proposed project in Willingdon Island is expected to create employment opportunities for another 3000 workers. The yard currently employs a total of 9000 people including 1800 permanent workers, he said.
Plans are on the afoot to penetrate into Europe and other overseas markets considering the customer response for alternate fuel vessels. This would help to double the turnover as well.

During an opening session at a recent conference on Wisconsin’s workforce attraction and retention woes, state labor economist Dennis Winters was asked, “Is doomsday around the corner?”
His reply — only half in jest — was, “No, it’s here.”
In fact, this demographic doomsday has been on the doorstep for decades. Only during the post-COVID recovery have more people started to notice and get worried about it.
Examining the overlapping and hard-to-resolve reasons for the stalled growth of the Wisconsin workforce was the goal of an Aug. 11 Competitive Wisconsin Inc. conference in Eau Claire, where a mix of business leaders, economic development professionals, educators, local government officials and others gathered to talk about root causes and possible solutions.
The consensus? The causes are myriad and addressing them must begin now.
People are also reading…
Economists and demographers in Wisconsin have been warning for decades that a shortage of workforce-age people was inevitable. The St. Louis-based research arm of the Federal Reserve reports Wisconsin’s “labor force participation” rate declined from 74.5% in late 1997 to 66.4% in June 2022. That rate reflects the number of all employed and unemployed workers divided against the state’s civilian population.
Declining birth rates are not just a Wisconsin phenomenon in recent decades — a similar story can be told in much of the Western world — but the fall is more noticeable in Wisconsin, in part because the state attracts fewer immigrants and interstate movers. At a time when much of the United States is on the move, Wisconsin isn’t a leading destination. About 1.1 million people moved from one U.S. state to another in 2021, the conference was told, yet only 3,400 or so wound up in Wisconsin.
Even if there was a second “baby boom” starting tomorrow, Wisconsin’s workforce wouldn’t reap the benefits for about 20 years. So, what fixes could be made a lot sooner?
UW-Eau Claire Chancellor Jim Schmidt, one of nearly 20 panelists at the conference, noted it will take a “web of inter-related solutions” to attract and retain more workers in Wisconsin. On the list were items such as easing housing shortages; making child care more available; expanding broadband options, especially in rural Wisconsin; encouraging innovation in education; improving access to transportation; and generally touting the state’s regional assets to compete with other states.
Wisconsin long ago figured out how to promote tourism and the dairy industry, so why not workforce attraction?
It also means coming up with strategies to make Wisconsin a “net recipient” of remote workers versus a net donor. That links to perceptions of quality of life and not discouraging young people who may embrace “live and let live” views on social issues, and who feel unwelcome in places that do not. It can mean lowering professional and vocational licensing barriers that make it easier for people to move to Wisconsin, versus fenced out by regulations.
For businesses, it means recognizing companies cannot simply show up on “Job Fair” days and expect to sign up young workers. Successful recruiters in business today are starting much earlier than that. It means businesses must and will continue trends toward automation and other digital solutions. That need not mean fewer jobs, but better jobs. While immigration is a federal issue, Wisconsin should find ways to welcome and integrate legal newcomers into society, such as those who make it through the H-1B high-skilled visa labyrinth.
One concept highlighted by Graham Anderson, senior manager of marketing for Milwaukee Tool, was the notion of people held back by a “benefits cliff.” That “cliff” explains why some people won’t take a higher-paid job if it means immediately losing benefits such as Badger Care health coverage or Wisconsin Shares child care benefits. He and others argued for transition periods for such programs.
Is “doomsday” nigh? I hope not, although the policy track record after two decades of warnings is poor. The Legislative Council’s Special Committee on Building Wisconsin’s Workforce (2008) and the 2012 Sullivan Commission Report (The Road Ahead: Restoring Wisconsin’s Workforce Development) are two examples of solid work largely ignored.
Wisconsin can and must do better.

Health chiefs have urged people to do their bit to help reduce waiting times – after it was revealed that a person attended A&E with dandruff.
The unknown patient presented themselves at Luton and Dunstable Hospital’s emergency department two weeks ago.
Consultant Dave Kirby, the deputy medical director at the Bedfordshire Trust, recalled the incident in a recent council meeting.
He spoke of patients wanting to see medical staff about ‘pretty much anything’, ITV reports.
Mr Kirby said: ‘The tolerance and threshold at which society seeks medical care has continued to reduce.
‘Now people want to see a doctor, a nurse or a pharmacist about pretty much anything. There’s no such thing as a quiet time of day.’
Waiting times at Luton and Dunstable Hospital can vary due to the scale of patient numbers.
When asked about average waiting times, Mr Kirby had said: ‘It depends on how many people turn up, the cubicle spaces availability, and a patient’s condition. If you’re desperately sick, there’s no waiting time.
‘If you arrive with dandruff, like someone two weeks ago, you’ll wait a long time. It varies between half an hour and three to three-and-a-half hours.’
Health chiefs are trying to reduce waiting times and hospitals have been told to prepare public health campaigns to help ‘minimise’ pressure on emergency departments.
In a letter to health chiefs, NHS chief executive Amanda Pritchard revealed winter planning had begun earlier than usual this year.
Doing so recognises ‘pressure on the NHS is likely to be substantial, particularly in urgent and emergency care’ she added.
According to the Daily Telegraph, the new public health campaign will come in the form of a renewed ‘help us help you’ directive.
Earlier this year, a new trial was launched to try reduce waiting times in emergency departments at a hospital in London.
GPs and nurses redirected people with minor ailments away from Northwick Park Hospital in Harrow and told to care for themselves at home, or go to a GP or pharmacy.
Some patients with minor illnesses see A&E departments as ‘the path of least resistance’, according to Harrow Health chief executive Adam Mackintosh.
He had said: ‘Given the time that we’re in, access to primary care can be quite difficult for patients.
‘So I think when they’re contacting a surgery, sometimes they’re being offered virtual consultations rather than face-to-face.
‘I think there’s a general acceptance that if they go to the emergency department, they’re going to see somebody face-to-face and in person. That’s some of the reasons.
‘Others are that it’s the path of least resistance, so you don’t have to telephone 111 and go through lots of questions.’

Even if Brittney Griner serves her full nine-year prison sentence, she’d be free from a Russian penal colony by 2031—but Allen Russell would still be sitting in a Mississippi prison for getting caught with less than two ounces of weed.
Russell, who’s also Black, was sentenced to life in prison for possession of 43 grams of cannabis in 2019. In June, the Mississippi Supreme Court upheld his sentence and ruled that it wasn’t “cruel and unusual punishment.”
Lawyers for Griner are appealing the 31-year-old WNBA star’s conviction for drug possession and smuggling after she was caught with less than a gram of cannabis oil in her luggage at Sheremetyevo International Airport, near Moscow. The Russian government has also said it’s willing to discuss a prisoner swap.
But as outrage mounts over Griner’s imprisonment, many lawyers and anti-prohibition advocates point out that the U.S. regularly doles out harsh sentences to people, especially Black Americans, for weed crimes.
Despite a wave of U.S. states legalizing weed in recent years, it’s still a Schedule I substance (the same category as heroin) at the federal level, meaning the government believes it has a high potential for abuse and is not an accepted medical treatment. Hundreds of thousands of people are arrested for weed every year, and the American Civil Liberties Union found that Black people are nearly four times more likely to get arrested for possession than white people are, despite the two groups having similar rates of use.
“We have thousands of people who are sitting in jail, in prison today because of marijuana offenses, including low-level marijuana offenses. So it makes it really hard for us to stand on any legal ground or even moral high ground,” said Maritza Perez, director of federal affairs for the Drug Policy Alliance.
Some of the harshest sentences happen in states with so-called “three strikes” or habitual offender laws, which punish people with prior convictions more severely. In some cases, if a person commits three felonies, a judge must impose the harshest sentence upon the third conviction.
In Russell’s case, he was sentenced to life in prison without parole because of his prior burglary convictions. Burglary is considered a violent offense in Mississippi regardless of whether there’s proof that violence occurred.
He’s not alone. Mississippi mother Tameka Drummer is also serving a life sentence for less than two ounces of weed under the state’s habitual offender laws. Trent Bouhdida was 21 when he was caught selling an undercover cop an ounce of weed in 2015; because of his prior convictions, Bouhdida, a Black man, was sentenced to 16 years in jail, as reported by the Phoenix New Times.
President Joe Biden has said Russia is “wrongfully detaining Brittney.”
“It’s unacceptable, and I call on Russia to release her immediately,” Biden said in a statement. He made no mention of Russia’s drug laws or jailing people for cannabis.
“Joe Biden's calling for her [Griner’s] release and talking about how unjust a nine-year sentence is—40,000 people today are incarcerated for marijuana offenses in the United States, even as the legal cannabis industry is booming,” said Scott Hechinger, a civil rights attorney and founder of Zealous, an advocacy group dedicated to ending mass incarceration.
Hechinger said prosecutors are “the most powerful actors in the system” and that they could use their discretion to decline to charge any case or whole classes of cases.
But he said that while lengthy sentences for cannabis are egregious, the everyday interactions people have with police over cannabis, such as being pulled over because of the smell of weed, are equally “unnecessary and unjust.”
Even places with legal weed continue to struggle with accusations of overpolicing.
Bonita Money, co-founder of the National Diversity and Inclusion Cannabis Alliance (NDICA), a group that advocates for equity in legal weed, said she was concerned that California’s push to legalize weed would create a “new war on drugs” because of the new regulations that come with a legal regime.
About seven months ago, she said police set up a cannabis checkpoint in South Los Angeles and pulled over one of her colleagues, who is Black, because he smelled like weed.
“We’re a weed facility. Everybody smells like weed that comes from our facility,” she said, alleging that cops searched her colleague’s car and made him complete a series of roadside sobriety tests. (The LAPD did not immediately respond to a request for comment.)
Griner’s sentence has been widely seen as political, given Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. But experts think of it as a drug policy issue.
“They've been trying to frame this as a diplomatic issue, an issue of wrongful detention and not really a drug policy issue, which is what I think it is,” Perez said.
“It's smart of them to do that, politically, because then they can avoid Biden's own record on drug policy and marijuana and the fact that he has not fulfilled his campaign promises.”
Biden backed the 1994 crime bill, which bolstered the war on drugs, particularly in Black and brown communities. Vice President Kamala Harris was also called out for hypocrisy after she decried Griner’s imprisonment; as former attorney general of California, Harris oversaw 1,900 cannabis convictions, according to the Mercury News, though she now says she supports decriminalization.
Although Attorney General Merrick Garland has reiterated that the federal government won’t go after cannabis users, Biden has not made steps toward removing cannabis from the schedule of controlled substances, which Perez called “very disappointing.” Weed is still completely illegal in four states and recreational use is illegal in more than half the country.
Biden could enact a number of measures to address some of these disparities, according to the experts who spoke to VICE News, including granting clemency to people still imprisoned for weed crimes, supporting federal cannabis decriminalization, and stopping evictions of cannabis users who live in public housing.
“It's not that we're just slamming the United States to slam the United States,” Hechinger said. “It’s because we can do so much better. And it's time to look internally.”

Hernandez (foot) will serve as the Blue Jays' designated hitter and cleanup batter in Sunday's game against the Yankees.
Hernandez likely isn't fully comfortable running at 100 percent speed after exiting Saturday's 5-2 win when he fouled a ball off his left foot, so the Blue Jays will ease him back into the lineup in a non-defensive capacity. The Blue Jays will soon need to clear the DH spot for George Springer (knee) -- who is missing his third straight contest Sunday -- so Hernandez could resume duties in his usual spot in right field as soon as Tuesday in Boston.

The Green Bay Packers just finished up arguably the most important week of training camp. From Friday, Aug. 12 to Friday, Aug. 19, the Packers played two preseason games and hosted joint practices with the New Orleans Saints. The seven days provided the perfect evaluation tool for Brian Gutekunst and Matt LaFleur, who now need to trim the roster to 80 players this week.
Here’s an updated 53-man roster projection after the Packers beat the Saints at Lambeau Field on Friday night:
Buy Packers TicketsOFFENSE (25)
QB (2): Aaron Rodgers, Jordan Love
RB (3): Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon, Tyler Goodson
WR (7): Allen Lazard, Randall Cobb, Sammy Watkins, Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, Amari Rodgers, Juwann Winfree
TE (4): Robert Tonyan, Marcedes Lewis, Josiah Deguara, Nate Becker
OL (9): Elgton Jenkins, Josh Myers, Jon Runyan Jr., Royce Newman, Yosh Nijman, Zach Tom, Sean Rhyan, Jake Hanson, Caleb Jones
Thoughts: Only a few changes here from last week. Out are Tyler Davis, who is having a nightmare summer, and Dominique Dafney, who was waived injured and could get an injury settlement. In is Becker, who was claimed off waivers last week and looked comfortable in a versatile run-blocking role against the Saints. The depth at the position is still a big issue. Along the offensive line, we’re now going with a bit of a surprise: Jones over Cole Van Lanen. An undrafted rookie, Jones has been terrific at left tackle over two preseason games. Maybe the practice squad is a better spot, but he certainly looks worth developing long-term.
DEFENSE (25)
DL (5): Kenny Clark, Jarran Reed, Dean Lowry, TJ Slaton, Devonte Wyatt
OLB (5): Rashan Gary, Preston Smith, Jonathan Garvin, Kingsley Enagbare, Kobe Jones
ILB (4): De’Vondre Campbell, Quay Walker, Isaiah McDuffie, Krys Barnes
CB (6): Jaire Alexander, Rasul Douglas, Eric Stokes, Keisean Nixon, Shemar Jean-Charles, Kiondre Thomas
S (5): Adrian Amos, Darnell Savage, Vernon Scott, Shawn Davis, Micah Abernathy
Thoughts: Thomas has stood out over two preseason games, and he’s playing a ton on special teams. He wins a job here as the sixth corner. The safety position is a big question mark. Scott is now injured, and Dallin Leavitt is dealing with a serious injury. The Packers may have to sacrifice an extra player at a deep position (like Jack Heflin?) to keep a fifth safety, and Abernathy’s splash plays against the Saints give him a chance. After a solid week, Jones gets the fifth edge rusher job, although Ladarius Hamilton and Tipa Galeai are still right there.
SPECIAL TEAMS (3)
K (1): Mason Crosby
P (1): Pat O’Donnell
LS (1): Jack Coco
Coco had a solid week, so he’s in good shape to win the long snapper job. Ramiz Ahmed, who made both field goals against the Saints, provides some protection at kicker, where the Packers are still waiting for Crosby to return. | https://packerswire.usatoday.com/2022/08/21/packers-53-man-roster-prediction-following-preseason-win-over-saints/ | 2022-08-21T16:28:57Z | https://packerswire.usatoday.com/2022/08/21/packers-53-man-roster-prediction-following-preseason-win-over-saints/ | false | 1 |

LONDON — West Ham slumped to its third straight loss to open the Premier League season as goals from midfielders Alexis Mac Allister and Leandro Trossard earned Brighton a 2-0 win on Sunday.
Mac Allister's 22nd-minute penalty and Trossard's breakaway goal in the 66th maintained Brighton's unbeaten start to the season after a win at Manchester United and a draw with Newcastle.
West Ham has now played Brighton 11 times in the Premier League and not won once.
Alarmingly, David Moyes' team has not scored a goal in the league this season so it was surprising to see Gianluca Scamacca, the offseason signing from Sassuolo in Italy who got off the mark against Viborg in the Europa Conference League playoffs on Thursday, back among the substitutes.
Recently signed defender Thilo Kehrer was given a full debut, but his Premier League career started inauspiciously when he brought down Danny Welbeck to concede a penalty.
Kurt Zouma had given the ball away in the middle of the field and Trossard's pass found Welbeck, who was tripped on the edge of the area by Kehrer, signed from Paris Saint-Germain.
After VAR confirmed the foul was inside the box, Mac Allister stepped up to slot home and put the Seagulls into the lead.
Kehrer was enduring a tough debut and, after another defensive mix-up, found himself wiped out by his own goalkeeper, Lukasz Fabianksi, before the ball was cleared.
With Brighton looking comfortable, Trossard had a shot blocked at the far post and Joel Veltman missed a simple header from six yards.
It was an abject first-half display from West Ham, with Said Benrahma's early curling shot that sailed wide its only genuine attempt on goal. The hosts were booed off at the interval.
Scamacca made his entrance on the hour mark, but five minutes later West Ham conceded another as Brighton doubled its lead.
Mac Allister's pass forward found Pascal Gross, who beautifully held off Zouma while flicking the ball into the path of Trossard. He raced into the area and placed a neat finish past Fabianski.
The visitors could have a had a third but Solly March headed an inviting cross from substitute Pervis Estupinan narrowly over.
West Ham was denied a consolation goal when Sanchez palmed headers from Jarrod Bowen and then Tomas Soucek over the crossbar.

Sunday, 21 August 2022 – Detectives investigating the disappearance and eventual murder of Embakasi East Returning Officer Daniel Musyoka are reportedly pursuing an unidentified lady seen in conversation with him outside the East African School of Aviation tallying center before he went missing.
The mysterious lady was seen talking with Musyoka at around 10 am on August 11, 2022, the day he went missing.
On the fateful day, Musyoka is said to have excused himself to walk to a nearby chemist to buy medicine.
He reportedly declined to be escorted by his bodyguard and driver.
Soon after leaving the tallying center, he met the unidentified lady outside the tallying center and engaged her in a chat for a few minutes.
That was the last time he was seen alive.
Sources revealed that the returning officer was a disturbed man hours before the declaration of the Constituency results.
At some point in the night, he sought some time alone in an empty room within the Tallying Centre.
Detectives are expected to use the CCTV footage obtained from the East African School of Aviation to unravel the murder.
As the investigations continue, burial preparations are underway with the family saying he will be laid to rest on Friday next week in his rural village of Muthetheni-Miu, Mwala in Machakos County.
Watch the CCTV footage.

NEW YORK, Aug. 21, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of the securities of Kiromic BioPharma, Inc. (NASDAQ: KRBP): (i) pursuant and/or traceable to the offering documents issued in connection with the Company’s initial public offering conducted on or about July 2, 2021 (the “IPO”); and/or (ii) between June 25, 2021 and August 13, 2021, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important October 4, 2022 lead plaintiff deadline.
SO WHAT: If you purchased Kiromic BioPharma securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.
WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Kiromic BioPharma class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=8051 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than October 4, 2022. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, the IPO documents failed to disclose that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) had, prior to the filing of the IPO documents, imposed a clinical hold, and in fact, contained statements indicating that it had not. Given that the IPO closed on July 2, 2021, more than thirty (30) days after Kiromic BioPharma submitted the Investigational New Drug (“IND”) applications for its two immunotherapy product candidates, investors were assured that no clinical hold had been issued and clinical trials would commence.
Kiromic BioPharma, however, received communications from the FDA on June 16 and 17, 2021, informing it that the FDA was placing the IND applications for its two candidate products on clinical hold. The IPO documents failed to disclose this information, instead representing that clinical testing was expected to proceed in the third quarter of 2021. Clinical testing did not proceed in the third quarter of 2021, nor was it likely given the FDA’s imposition of a clinical hold. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
To join the Kiromic BioPharma class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=8051 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.
No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Canadian singer Michael Buble and his wife Luisana Lopilato are parents again, with the latter making the announcement on social media. On August 19, the 35-year-old Argentine actress took to her Instagram handle to share a picture of their newborn child's foot while the duo held it. Captioning it, she wrote:
"From love comes life, light and her... our baby Cielo Yoli Rose Bublé. You finally arrived to our lives with your 3.8 kg!!! Thanks God for this infinite blessing, we love you!! Noah, Elias, Vida and your mom and dad."
The pair is already parents to three children, Noah (8), Elias (6), and Vida (3), and now with Cielo's birth, the family of five has increased by a number.
The news about Michael Buble and Luisana Lopilato's fourth pregnancy was revealed after the former's music video, I'll Never Not Love You, was released in February 2022.
In the YouTube video, the duo recreated several romantic iconic scenes from legendary films like Titanic, The Notebook, and Love Actually.
A brief look into Michael Buble and Luisana Lopilato's family
Michael Buble and Luisana Lopilato first crossed each other's paths in 2008 at an afterparty of the singer's show in Buenos Aires. While talking to People Magazine, a source close to the duo said:
"They met at a party the record company threw for him after his show in Buenos Aires. The head of the label wanted to introduce Michael to Argentina's most famous actress. When he met her, he said it was love at first sight."
After dating for almost two years, Michael Buble and Lopilato announced their engagement in 2010. A year later, the pair tied the knot in two different locations, Canada and Argentina.
In May 2011, while talking about his second wedding to People Magazine, Buble said:
"It's just another excuse to celebrate our love, have a few drinks and to dance all night."
In May 2013, the duo announced that they were expecting their first child together, and welcomed their first child, a son named Noah, on August 27, 2013.
In 2015, Buble and Lopilato announced that their 22-month-old boy will soon be an elder brother, and welcomed Elias in January 2016.
Unfortunately, at the same time, the family discovered that Noah was diagnosed with liver cancer and announced the news on Facebook:
"We are devastated about the recent cancer diagnosis of our oldest son Noah who is currently undergoing treatment in the US. We have always been very vocal about the importance of family and the love we have for our children. Luisana and I have put our careers on hold in order to devote all our time and attention to helping Noah get well."
The post further stated:
"At this difficult time, we ask only for your prayers and respect for our privacy. We have a long journey in front of us and hope that with the support of family, friends and fans around the world, we will win this battle, God willing."
Fortunately, in March 2017, Noah returned home after 18 months of treatment.
A year later, in February 2018, the pair announced their third pregnancy and welcomed their daughter Vida Amber Betty in July.
Before meeting Luisana Lopilato, Michael Buble was engaged to Debbie Timuss, but their relationship ended in November 2005.
He was also romantically linked with British actress Emily Blunt from 2005 to 2008.

As German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is set to arrive in Canada on Sunday (Aug.21) , Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing renewed calls from Ukraine to cancel a permit allowing turbines repaired in Montreal to be sent back to a Russian energy giant.
Scholz, who took over from Angela Merkel in December last year, is expected to land in Montreal on Sunday evening for a three-day visit that also includes scheduled stops in Toronto and Stephenville, N.L.
He will be accompanied by Vice-Chancellor Robert Habeck, who is in charge of the country’s energy file.
A statement from the Prime Minister’s Office said the visit will advance shared priorities between Canada and Germany “including our unwavering support for Ukraine, protecting peace and security in Europe and around the world, and addressing the broader global impacts of Russia’s illegal and unjustifiable invasion.”
Ukraine has criticized Trudeau and his government for a decision last month to agree to a request from Germany to exempt Siemens Canada from sanctions against Russia so it could return a turbine for use in the Nord Stream 1 pipeline that supplies natural gas to Germany.
The turbine had been under repairs at Siemens’ Montreal facility, the only location in the world capable of maintaining the equipment. It was delivered to Germany and was supposed to go to Russia from there, but Russian authorities have so far refused to accept it.
Russia has also cut gas flows in the pipeline to 20 per cent of capacity and recently announced it would shut down the line entirely for three days at the end of the month, citing the need for unscheduled maintenance.
Canada’s permit also allows Siemens to import, repair and return five other turbines used in Nord Stream 1, according to their maintenance schedule, and is valid until the end of 2024.
READ ALSO: Canada considered jobs, inflation in decision to return Russian turbine: document
In an interview, the Ukrainian ambassador to Canada, Yulia Kovaliv, called again for the waiver to be cancelled.
She said it is clear that Russia will not accept the turbine that Siemens has delivered to Germany, and accused Russia of using gas supplies as a way of terrorizing Europe.
“Our position is quite clear: we do think that this waiver should be cancelled and now,” she said.
“If it was an argument to call Putin’s bluff, everybody sees for the last few weeks it is now quite obvious that it is Russian games.”
Orest Zakydalsky of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress said the chancellor’s visit will “be a chance for them to reverse the policy and cancel the permit.”
Ministers have defended the move as necessary to secure gas supplies for Germany, as well as to call Putin’s bluff. They argue the Kremlin would have used Canada’s refusal to return the turbine to blame sanctions for energy shortages in Europe, which could undermine public support for Ukraine.
Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson said in an interview that Canada will continue to “assess” its decision to allow the turbine to be returned to Gazprom, the Russian state-owned energy giant that operates Nord Stream 1.
“It was obviously a difficult decision and it was one that we made on the basis that we believe that not sending the turbine back would have given Putin an excuse,” he said.
“It would have potentially had the effect of undermining the support that Ukraine enjoys on the part of some of the European populations.”
Wilkinson said he now felt Russia’s position has been exposed and there is increasing pressure on Gazprom and on the Russian government.
“Our expectation and our hope is that the turbine will actually go back to Gazprom, and it will eventually come into service.”
He added that the government stands by its decision and feels it is far too early to be thinking about changing its exemption, but said “we will have to see what evolves over the next few months.”
“We obviously will continue to have a dialogue with our European partners and our German partners,” he said.
Scholz and Trudeau plan to discuss energy security and the transition to clean energy, “including through secure access to key resources like clean hydrogen and critical minerals,” according to the Prime Minister’s Office.
In Stephenville, the leaders are expected to sign a pact that will set aggressive timelines and targets for exporting hydrogen to Germany, though some experts warn the deal will serve only as a small, far-off and expensive part of the solution to Europe’s energy crisis.
A consortium of four partners calling itself World Energy GH2 plans to build a zero-emission plant in the Newfoundland community that will use wind energy to produce hydrogen and ammonia for export.
If approved, the project would be the first of its kind in Canada.
The consortium has said the first phase of the proposal calls for building up to 164 onshore wind turbines to power a hydrogen production facility at a deepsea port. Long-term plans call for tripling the size of the project.

TEEN Mom Kailyn Lowry has fans convinced she hinted that she's pregnant with her fifth child in a new post.
Rumors have been circulating that the reality star was expecting another baby after she seemingly sported a baby bump in photos outside her Delaware home.
Kailyn may have dropped another clue that a baby is on the way in a TikTok video she shared on Saturday.
The 30-year-old took to the platform to review Dunkin' Donuts' new Refresher beverage.
She filmed the experience from her car as she waited in line for the drive-thru window.
"Okay, so, one of my followers said that Dunkin' [Donuts] got a new Refresher flavor, so I'm about to see if the one here has it," she said to the camera.
Kailyn quickly updated fans once she pulled up to the menu, saying: "Okay, I see it on the sign. They have it," before flashing the lens toward the neon menu.
"Okay, so it's Blood Orange, and you can get it with either coconut milk or green tea, but they normally make it with green tea," she explained.
The mom-of-four had trouble waiting for her drink to be ready, telling her followers: "It's taking forever, and I'm impatient and excited."
She continued with the review once the beverage arrived, saying: "Alright, I secured the bag, and I'm about to try this. Let's try - and I'm parked, by the way," she assured viewers while holding the cold drink.
Most read in Entertainment
Kailyn then doubted her filming choice as she hurried to unwrap the straw to try her order.
"Okay, I would only pick a minute-long one for this. Okay, hold on, here we go," the TV personality commented.
Once the Teen Mom 2 alum tried the non-caffeinated beverage, she was pleasantly surprised by the taste and immediately raved about the flavor.
"Oh yeah, oh yeah! Ten out of 10!" she boasted.
"Go get you a Blood Orange with green tea. I haven't tried [it] with coconut milk. This is a 10 out of 10," the TV star added as she took another sip.
"I'm lovin' it. Oh, that's McDonald's, dammit." she humorously added, confusing the slogan for the coffee chain for the famed fast food restaurant.
PREGNANCY CLUE
The video was a seemingly telling sign for eagle-eyed fans while chatter continues to swirl over Kailyn's possible fifth pregnancy.
The young mom confessed to cutting out caffeine just weeks earlier, leading many fans to believe it's because she's expecting.
In the clip, Kailyn said, "So I cut out coffee a couple of months ago, and it's actually still really hard for me in the mornings."
Pregnant women are advised to limit their caffeine intake as even small amounts can harm their baby.
The MTV star then revealed she now drinks iced teas - like her latest drink order - instead and ordered a passion tea from Starbucks.
One fan shared Kailyn's video on an online platform and wrote, "More pregnancy clues. No coffee for a few months?"
MORE HINTS
Kailyn appeared to drop another clue in a video with her eldest sons Isaac and Lincoln.
She told them: "Y'all both have nasty feet."
Isaac replied: "We get it from you then."
Kailyn held her foot to the camera and said: "No, my feet are nice."
Lincoln shot back: "Not when your nails fall off."
Kailyn burst out laughing before yelping: "Ow! Don't make me laugh!"
Fans online thought Kailyn being in pain when she laughs was another sign that she's pregnant.
"So her stomach hurts when she laughs... another clue," one wrote.
Another added: "She even sounds pregnant with the way she’s huffing."
Kailyn shares a son Isaac, 12, with her ex-Jo Rivera; a son Lincoln, eight, with her ex-husband, Javi Marroquin; and sons Lux, five, and Creed, two, with her ex-Chris Lopez.
She is currently dating her live-in boyfriend, Elijah Scott, who is suspected to be her supposed fifth baby's father.
BABY BUMP?
Last month, she got fans talking when she showed off what looked like a baby bump outside her $750k mansion.
In exclusive photos obtained by The U.S. Sun, Kailyn and Elijah looked tense as she walked around the property.
Kailyn wore a blue t-shirt and black pants, while her 24-year-old beau sported a neon yellow shirt.
An online thread erupted with comments about the star's appearance as many thought they spotted a bump.
The original poster started the conversation: "Oh My God, Kailyn pics! Is she pregnant?"
Others chimed in with their thoughts, with many in agreement that the TV star may be concealing a baby bump.
"So every time there’s a rumor she may be pregnant, it’s true. I’d put money on it that it’s true," one person wrote.
It comes after Kailyn's baby daddy, Chris, 28, implied that she was pregnant yet again in a recent, since-deleted tweet.
His comment read: "Out here talking bout you'll beat me up now you know you gotta protect the belly stop it." | https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/6046851/teen-mom-kailyn-lowry-clue-expecting-fifth-baby/ | 2022-08-21T17:00:51Z | https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/6046851/teen-mom-kailyn-lowry-clue-expecting-fifth-baby/ | true | 2 |
IMF fees on war-torn countries closer to elimination
For years, lawmakers, economists and civil rights organizations have called on the IMF, which has for decades loaned billions to low-income countries, to end its surcharge policy.
Published: 21st August 2022 02:40 AM | Last Updated: 21st August 2022 02:40 AM | A+A A-
WASHINGTON: The International Monetary Fund is facing pressure to reevaluate how it imposes fees on loans it disperses to needy countries like war-torn Ukraine — which is one of the fund’s biggest borrowers.
The move comes as more countries will need to turn to the IMF, as food prices and inflation internationally continues to rise.
Surcharges are added fees on loans imposed on countries that are heavily indebted to the IMF.
Treasury Deputy Secretary Wally Adeyemo said in Aspen last month that finance ministers of several countries realize they have to pay a price for Russia’s war in Ukraine, especially with food prices going up.
“They’re going to have to go to the IMF, they’re going to need to find assistance,” Adeyemo said.
However, the IMF fee system could change through U.S legislation. An amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act, otherwise known as the defense spending bill, would suspend IMF surcharges while their effectiveness and burden on indebted countries is studied.
That was passed by the U.S. House in July. The Senate is expected to vote on its defense bill in September. A representative of the Senate Armed Services Committee said an amendment may be offered in the next few weeks or even on the Senate floor.
As the largest IMF shareholder and member of the Fund’s executive board, the U.S. can push for policy decisions and unilaterally veto some board decisions.
Citing worsening financial crises in Sri Lanka and Pakistan as examples, some accuse China of engaging in debt trap diplomacy — or having countries falls so deeply in debt to that they are beholden to it on international issues.
Advocates and civil rights organizations lodge the same complaint against the Fund, who claim the organization undercuts its core lender-of-last-resort role with countries in vulnerable positions to pay back debt.
With an ever-worsening risk of a global debt crisis and rising interest rates, the issue has become more pressing for countries looking to reduce their deficits.
However, some economists and representatives of the fund say the surcharges amount to responsible lending behavior, as they provide an incentive for members with large outstanding balances to repay their loans promptly. This applies especially for countries that may otherwise may not be able to obtain financing from private lenders.
Maurice Obstfeld, a Berkeley economics professor and former IMF research department director said as a lender of last resort, the Fund’s ability to lend is important as low and middle income countries face rising interest rates.
“The Fund’s staff is small and in a crisis, its efforts are better deployed serving member countries’ needs,” he said in an email to The Associated Press. “Surcharges could be relaxed temporarily in the face of intense pressures on borrowing countries, but at the expense of the Fund’s ability to serve its membership in the longer term.”
Illinois Congressman Jesús “Chuy” García, who offered the defense spending amendment, told The Associated Press “it is unfair for the IMF to require countries like Ukraine that are already deep in debt to pay surcharge fees. These surcharges increase poverty and hold back our global economic recovery.”
Ukraine’s projected real GDP is expected to decline by 35 percent, due in large part to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, according to IMF data.
The country, engaged in a war with no projected end, has an outstanding balance of 7.5 billion SDRs — an IMF accounting unit valued at around $9.8 billion according to Ukrainian central bankers. The latest figures estimate that Ukraine will owe the IMF $360 million in surcharges between 2021 and 2023.
Economists Joseph Stiglitz at Columbia University and Kevin P. Gallagher at Boston University wrote earlier this year that “forcing excessive repayments lowers the productive potential of the borrowing country, but also harms creditors” and requires borrowers “to pay more at exactly the moment when they are most squeezed from market access in any other form.”
Serhiy Nikolaychuk, Deputy Chairman of the National Bank of Ukraine, said Ukraine is continuing to pay its debts “despite Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine.”
“Our country will pay its debt and surcharges under previous programs and fulfill its obligations to the IMF,” Nikolaychuk said. “It will be difficult, but we will pay.”
For years, lawmakers, economists and civil rights organizations have called on the IMF, which has for decades loaned billions to low-income countries, to end its surcharge policy.
In January, 18 left-leaning lawmakers wrote to Treasury calling for the surcharge policy to be eliminated. And in April, a group of 150 civil society groups and individuals signed an open letter to the IMF, asking for the same, calling surcharges “regressive.”
A spokesperson for the fund says the surcharges are designed to discourage large and prolonged use of IMF resources.
“They only apply to countries with particularly large outstanding loans,” Mayada Ghazala said in an emailed statement, adding that poorest countries are exempt from the surcharges.
The fund’s executive board met in December 2021 and discussed the role of surcharges —it ultimately decided not to make a change to the fees, but said they would review them again in the future.
The IMF was created in 1944 at the United Nations Bretton Woods Conference — one of its missions is lending to maintain the financial stability of countries. Among its 190 countries, it lends around $1 trillion, according to the organization’s website.
An April review of the fund’s financial health for fiscal year 2022 and 2023 states that lending income excluding surcharges “remain strong and are expected to exceed expenses in FY 2023–2024.”
Andrés Arauz, a senior research fellow at the liberal Center for Economic and Policy Research says the IMF’s financial position shows “the surcharges are not necessary for sound finances.”
“There is no excuse for the IMF to be punishing countries under debt stress with surcharges,” he said. “There is also no logic to it, the amount of money that the IMF raises from surcharges is trivial relative to its income and capacity.”
Garcia said “I’m proud the House passed my amendment to support a pause and review of surcharges at the IMF, and I will keep up the fight until the President signs it into law.”
Separately, the U.S. has sent roughly $7.3 billion in aid to Ukraine since the war began in late February, including a new $775 million defense aid package announced Friday. | https://www.newindianexpress.com/world/2022/aug/21/imf-fees-on-war-torn-countries-closer-to-elimination-2489723.html | 2022-08-21T17:02:45Z | https://www.newindianexpress.com/world/2022/aug/21/imf-fees-on-war-torn-countries-closer-to-elimination-2489723.html | true | 34 |

Palestinians working in Israel strike over demand for bank accounts
The new payment method was agreed between Palestinian and Israeli authorities looking for a more efficient and secure way to pay salaries, but workers fear that hidden fees and new taxes will cut into their wages. About 200,000 Palestinians cross each day into Israel or Jewish settlements for work, earning on average more than twice as much as those employed by Palestinian state bodies and businesses.
Tens of thousands of Palestinians employed in Israel staged a one-day strike on Sunday in protest at a decision to pay their salaries into bank accounts rather than in cash. The new payment method was agreed between Palestinian and Israeli authorities looking for a more efficient and secure way to pay salaries, but workers fear that hidden fees and new taxes will cut into their wages.
About 200,000 Palestinians cross each day into Israel or Jewish settlements for work, earning on average more than twice as much as those employed by Palestinian state bodies and businesses. Most of the workers do not have bank accounts and putting their salaries on the books would create a new revenue source for the financially-strapped Palestinian Authority (PA), while bringing a windfall in service fees for Palestinian banks.
Under the arrangement, salaries will be paid weekly with bank fees set at $1 per transfer, according to a number of workers who spoke to Reuters. Palestinian Labour Minister Nasri Abu Jeish said the new arrangement was meant to protect workers' rights and that there was no plan to impose new taxes.
An Israeli defence ministry official said the measure would allow an adjustment period until it comes into full force on Jan. 1. "This will strengthen the Palestinian economy. It will have many positive effects like ensuring workers' pensions are paid by their Israeli employers and reducing black money." The PA, which has limited autonomy in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, is responsible for roughly 150,000 public sector jobs in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Its budget was $330 million for 2021 and it relies heavily on foreign donors.
Mohammad Khaseeb, 43, who works at an aluminium factory in Israel, said he and thousands of others were protesting at a decision which he said was reached without taking workers' views into account. "They decided without consulting the workers' union. Either a worker agrees or he loses his work permit," Khaseeb said.
Bassim Al-Waheidi, a 55-year-old construction worker, said that beyond losing money to bank fees and taxes, there was concern about other deductions being made. "We reject having our salaries transferred to Palestinian Authority banks because we are afraid of the future and there is a crisis of trust," Waheidi said.
Workers' representatives said if the decision was not cancelled they would escalate their protest and might declare an open-ended strike. (Additional reporting by Maayan Lubell in Jerusalem; Writing by Nidal al-Mughrabi in Gaza; editing by Philippa Fletcher)

The Royal family have been "kept in the dark" over the contents of Prince Harry's tell-all memoir and will read about it at the same time as the public, is is understood.
It is likely that the relatives of the Duke of Sussex will only get to set eyes on his "heartfelt" book once it is released to the public and will not have the ability to read it beforehand.
The Prince of Wales and the Duke of Cambridge, as well as their lawyers and advisors, have not seen any part of the manuscript and do not know when the book will be published, the Telegraph reports.
Last summer, Penguin Random House announced that the "intimate and heartfelt" memoir was “tentatively scheduled” for late 2022, meaning it could hit the shelves this autumn.
The book is understood to have already gone through all the relevant and appropriate legal processes, and some have speculated that Penguin could opt for a "shock drop" with a number of quick bombshell allegations revealed ahead of publishing.
Prince Harry has previously said that he was "intensely focused" on getting more information surrounding the death of his mother Princess Diana for his book, according to a source.
He has vowed that the book will be a "truthful and wholly accurate" account of his life - with the announcement of the novel sending a "tsunami of fear" through royal circles.
A judicial source in Paris claimed that Harry and his researchers have been seeking more information surrounding the car crash in the French capital that killed his mum.
The source told The Sun : "There have been approaches which suggest Prince Harry is intensely focused on getting more information about his mother's death.
"There are plenty of people in France who recall the night of the accident. It's only normal that Diana’s son should want to learn more about it for his book."
And Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's visit to the UK next month has left many asking if the pair will meet up with Prince William and his wife Kate.
The Sussexes quit the UK in early 2020 and since then William and Harry have only been pictured together in public twice - at the funeral of Prince Philip and at an unveiling of a statue of Diana.
The pair were not seen together during the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations this summer.
In regards to the memoir, many have expressed a degree of surprise that Penguin, who spent a reputed £16.9 million to secure the deal, appear to be willing to risk its reputation by publishing a book that is likely to contain a number of highly subjective allegations.
But royal aides are reportedly well aware that the Royal family would never sue one of its own, and the risks of publication from the eyes of Penguin remain somewhat small and there is no legal obligation to offer a right of reply.
However, there are some theories that the book will be so bland, and not share bombshell allegations, that here was no reason to give the Royal family a heads-up before publication.
It is also expected that publicity will be mainly focused on the US market, with either TV appearances on so-called friendly networks, or photo shoots in the glossy magazines such as Vanity Fair, could be possible.
The book has been ghost written by JR Moehringer who is a Pulitzer-winning author and journalist.
He also ghost wrote Andre Agassi’s best-selling memoir, Open, published in 2009. | https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/royal-family-kept-dark-over-27795464 | 2022-08-21T17:13:52Z | https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/royal-family-kept-dark-over-27795464 | false | 1 |

Osun, Isokan - Residents of Apomu in Isokan local government area in Osun state have been thrown into despair following the death of Kazeem Kekere, a powerful chieftain of the All Progressive Congress (APC).
As reported by The Nation newspaper, Kekere's demise came in the hands of some unknown gunmen who shot in the night on Saturday, August 20.
Legit.ng gathered that Kekere until his death was the branch chairman of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) in Apomu.
Kekere was described as a loyalist of the party who defended the interest of the party even till his last days on earth.

It was gathered that Kekere during the Osun state gubernatorial election in July used his position to mobilize voters for the ruling party.
Residents recount incident, as APC confirms Kekere's demise
One of the residents of the community who pleaded anonymity stated that Kekere was trailed by the gunmen and was killed instantly after he was cornered and ambushed in a spot.
The source said:
“He was killed around 8 and 9 pm between Oke-Alfa and Timberland area, at the stream in the area. He was pursued to the spot by two vehicles. The cars trailed him to the point where his car was waylaid and he was killed.”

Coronation Street star Kate Ford has wowed fans with her latest social media snap.
The 45-year-old actress, who plays Tracy Barlow in the ITV soap, cut a casual figure as she popped out for a coffee recently.
She donned a white t-shirt with a pair of cropped trousers as she posed up a storm for the camera.

Kate styled her hair in loose waves and opted to go makeup free for her day out.
Unsurprisingly, the TV personality's latest Instagram grid update caught the attention of her 114,000 followers, with some rushing to leave a message for Kate in the comment section.
One fan penned: "So naturally beautiful."
Another added: "Looking fantastic."
A third person posted: "So gorgeous."
While a fourth social media user said: "Absolutely stunning."
It comes after Kate floored fans earlier this year as she shared a throwback snap online.
The actress posted a set of sepia photographs to her Instagram page, which had originally been shared by a pal, in which she could be seen with her iconic brunette hair cropped into a style that barely grazed her neck.
Kate looked stunning as ever in a spaghetti-strap white dress embellished with a black floral design, staring moodily into the camera in a very 90s style.
The star was accompanied by Bart Ruspoli, who Kate explained was her ex-boyfriend and now the husband of his current wife Vanessa, as he posed in an open-collared shirt.
Though the cycle proved a little confusing, Kate was on hand to explain in the caption.
She wrote: "I love this!! When your ex’s wife posts a celebratory photo of you and her husband (I love them both) from 1997 you realise how life can (sometimes) come full circle in gorgeous ways you at one point couldn’t imagine!"
Kate went on to tag both Vanessa and Bart in the post, as Vanessa gushed: "Look at these two hotties!"
Fans immediately poured into the comments section to compliment the star, with one writing: "Love this!"
"Wow, this is a great example of women supporting women!" another praised, as a third fan commented: "I LOVE this. Sisters united doing it for themselves!"
"What a gorgeous photo," someone else echoed.
A fifth said: "Didn’t recognise you at all then!"
Kate is no stranger to posting throwback photos, as last summer she posted a photograph of her as a child in the 80s, posing with a pal as the pair glammed up in true late twentieth century style - crimped hair and all.

Singer Tevin Campbell has shared that he is gay during a recent interview. He’s faced speculation about his sexuality for many years, and previously described himself as someone who was a bit of a “freak”.
The Grammy winning singer is best known for his early 90’s RnB hits including Can We Talk and Get Ready.
“I’m not gay, but there are a lot of different things that I do like, sexually,” Campbell said when asked about his sexuality decades ago. “Being in the business, you are introduced to a lot of different things. I’m not gay but I’m a freak and I think a lot of people know what a freak is.”
Speaking to the People magazine podcast People Every Day, Campbell said it was difficult to come out as a gay artist when his career was at it’s peak, and he is filled with admiration for queer artists today including Lil Nas X and Frank Ocean.
“When I came out to my family and friends, about 19 or 20, that was it for me,” Campbell said. “And then I went on the road of discovering myself. I didn’t know who I was.”
Campbell said he hoped society would eventually reach a point where celebrities coming out was not a big deal.
“When we can get to the place in society where somebody can just say, ‘Yeah, I’m gay,’” Campbell said. “Every person in the world isn’t straight. Get over it! When you get to a point in your life where you love yourself so much and you don’t give a damn what people say or think about you, that feels so good.”
“What makes me happiest right now is how far I’ve come in life. You know, there are a lot of child stars that don’t make it. But a lot of us do, and the fact that I’ve embraced me.”
Tevin Campbell first came to prominence as a teenager when in 1989 when he performed on the Quincy Jones album Back on the Block. His platinum selling debut album T.E.V.I.N was released in 1991 and he went on to have greater success with his 1993 follow-up I’m Ready.
As an actor he appeared alongside Prince in Graffiti Bridge, and also appeared on television programs including The Fresh Prince of Bel Air and Moesha. His career stalled after he arrested in 1999 for soliciting a lewd act from an uncover police officer.

The Philadelphia Eagles' ramp up to the regular season continues on Sunday afternoon at 1:00 p.m. EST when they'll face the Cleveland Browns in preseason game No. 2.
In his press conference on Friday, Nick Sirianni declined to indicate whether the starters would play or not, but after a decent enough showing in joint practices in Berea, coupled with pouring rain today in Cleveland, the Birds' first-teamers will get the day off.
Earlier this morning, we noted five players to watch closely in this matchup. They are all backups, of course.

NEW YORK, Feb. 25, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Attorney Advertising -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC notifies investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Acutus Medical, Inc.

Specifically, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements and failed to disclose that: (a) a material percentage of the AcQMap systems under evaluation had been randomly installed at sites with little, if any, consideration given to whether the healthcare providers at the selected locations were likely to adopt, or desire, Acutus Medical's products; (b) a material percentage of the AcQMap systems under evaluation had been installed in locations where Acutus Medical did not possess the infrastructure necessary to appropriately educate, train, and support medical service providers on the system's operations; (c) as a result, defendants were in the process of designing a strategic plan to terminate and relocate approximately 20% of then-existing AcQMap systems evaluation arrangements; (d) the Company's management discussion and analysis was materially false and misleading and failed to disclose that the termination and relocation of approximately 20% of existing AcQMap systems evaluation arrangements was reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on Acutus Medical's 2021 financial results; and (e) Acutus Medical's risk factor discussions were materially false and misleading and made reference to potential risks without disclosing that such risks were then-existing or adequately describing the specific nature of the risks then facing the Company.

A$AP Rocky Seen Arriving In Court As He Pleads Not Guilty To Felony Assault Charges: Photos
A$AP Rocky looked ready for court, as he arrived for his hearing in the felony assault case on Wednesday, August 17. Rocky, 33, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, was charged with 2 counts of felony assault with a firearm months after a shooting in November 2021. He sported a dark blue suit and tie, as well as a black face mask, as he arrived for the trial. He pleaded not guilty, according to Entertainment Tonight.
Rocky was arrested after he arrived at LAX, following a trip to Barbados with his girlfriend Rihanna in April. Authorities brought him into custody, and he was later released after putting up the $550,000 for bail. The charges against the “D.M.B.” rapper were formally announced by Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón on August 15. Rocky can face up to 14 years in prison for the charges.
The D.A. warned spoke about the charges further in a statement. “Discharging a gun in a public place is a serious offense that could have ended with tragic consequences not only for the person targeted but also for innocent bystanders visiting Hollywood,” he said. “My office conducted a thorough review of the evidence in this case and determined that the addition of a special firearm allegation was warranted.”
The hearing comes just three months after Rocky and Rihanna, 33, welcomed their first child in May, and parenting his newborn son has been a major focus for the At Long Last A$AP star. A source close to his girlfriend revealed to HollywoodLife exclusively that Rihanna has been trying to “remain calm,” but is also worried. “She’s feeling anxious and wishes this whole thing would be over already. She feels like their son needs his father to be present in his life and isn’t ready to imagine what their future potentially looks like at this point if Rocky has to go away. She’s doing her best to stay strong for herself and Rocky, and just wants the best for her baby,” the insider said. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2709289988204/a-ap-rocky-seen-arriving-in-court-as-he-pleads-not-guilty-to-felony-assault-charges-photos | 2022-08-21T17:25:02Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2709289988204/a-ap-rocky-seen-arriving-in-court-as-he-pleads-not-guilty-to-felony-assault-charges-photos | false | 2 |
The daughter of an influential Russian political theorist often referred to as “Putin’s brain” was killed in a car bombing on the outskirts of Moscow, authorities said Sunday.The Moscow branch of the Russian Investigative Committee said preliminary information indicated 29-year-old TV commentator Daria Dugina was killed by an explosive planted in the SUV she was driving Saturday night.There was no immediate claim of responsibility.

He is also a vehement supporter of Russia's sending of troops into Ukraine.The explosion took place as his daughter was returning from a cultural festival she had attended with him.

NEW YORK (AP) — “Reliable Sources” host Brian Stelter insisted Sunday that he'll still be rooting for CNN even after his show was canceled this week, but stressed that it was important for the network and others to hold the media accountable.
CNN gave Stelter the chance to host a final episode of the 30-year Sunday morning program on the media even after it was learned this week that he and the show would be exiting — a gesture that's relatively rare in television.
Stelter said that it was not partisan to stand up for decency, democracy and dialogue.
“It's not partisan to stand up to demagogues,” he said. “It's required. It's patriotic. We must make sure we don't give platforms to those who are lying to our faces. But we also must make sure we are representing the total spectrum of debate and representing what's going on in the country and the world.”
It was Stelter's most direct reference to what is believed to be the reason for his demise; CNN hasn't talked publicly about it. Since he started this spring, new CNN chief executive Chris Licht has made clear he wants to tone down opinion, particularly as it made Republicans resistant to the network.
Stelter, who wrote a book about Fox News Channel and was frequently critical of Fox, was a lightning rod for conservatives' complaints.
Some of his final “Reliable Sources” guests were more direct. Eric Deggans, NPR television critic, said he hopes CNN will continue to give viewers context and not be reduced to false equivalency. “Just the facts” isn't enough, he said.
“Will CNN have the courage to do that?” Deggans asked. “I hope so.”
Stelter, who hosted the show for nine years, also had Watergate scribe Carl Bernstein as a guest and brought back the first guest from the first “Reliable Sources” in 1992 — then-local journalist Brian Karem. | https://www.theintelligencer.com/news/article/Stelter-says-CNN-must-hold-media-accountable-as-17387980.php | 2022-08-21T17:35:44Z | https://www.theintelligencer.com/news/article/Stelter-says-CNN-must-hold-media-accountable-as-17387980.php | false | 31 |
JERUSALEM (AP) — A Palestinian rights campaigner said that Israel tried to summon him for questioning on Sunday, as it pressed ahead with a crackdown on Palestinian rights groups based in the West Bank.
European and U.S. diplomats have pushed back against the claim by Israeli officials that the targeted groups are linked with terrorism.
The apparent Israeli order for Shawan Jabarin to report to a military prison followed a widely criticized raid last week on six Palestinian civil society organizations in the occupied West Bank. Nine European countries, using uncharacteristically blunt language, called the raid “not acceptable,” while the U.S. expressed concern.
Jabarin, who is director of one of the targeted groups, Al-Haq, said on Sunday that he received a five-minute “threatening call” from Israel’s Shin Bet security service ordering him to go to the Ofer military prison in the occupied West Bank. He said an officer threatened arrest, interrogation and “other things” if he did not comply.
“I will not change my mind, but if he wants to arrest me then he can surely do it as an occupying power,” Jabarin said. He said he invited the officer to the Al-Haq office and that he demanded the summons to be sent officially through lawyers, not over the phone.
The Shin Bet did not respond to a request for comment.
Israel last year outlawed six rights groups, including Al-Haq, claiming they have ties to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. The PFLP is a secular, left-wing movement with a political party as well as an armed wing that has carried out deadly attacks against Israelis. Israel and the U.S. have labeled the PFLP a terrorist organization.
The rights groups deny the Israeli allegations. Jabarin called the claims of PFLP ties “utter nonsense and complete lies.” Nine European countries have also rejected the Israeli charges, citing a lack of evidence.
Despite the criticism, Israeli soldiers last Thursday entered the West Bank city of Ramallah in an armored convoy and blew up the front doors of the Palestinian groups’ offices. Soldiers seized documents, computers, and broke furniture and appliances before sealing the entrances.
The nine European countries — Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and Sweden — stepped up their criticism of Israel over the weekend, saying the latest raids are “part of a worrying reduction of space for civil society” for Palestinians.
“These actions are not acceptable,” they said in a joint statement, adding they have seen no evidence of extremist links.
U.S. State Department spokesman Ned Price last week said Washington was “concerned” about the raids and closures but Israel had pledged to provide additional information. Western diplomats visited one of the offices hours later in a show of support for the outlawed groups.
The groups raided include Al-Haq, a veteran, internationally respected Palestinian rights group; Addameer, which advocates for Palestinian prisoners held by Israel; Defense for Children International-Palestine; the Union of Palestinian Women’s Committees; the Union of Agricultural Work Committees, and the Bisan Center for Research and Development.
On Sunday, some 45 Israeli and Jewish advocacy groups issued a statement in solidarity with the targeted Palestinian groups.
“Defense of human rights is not terrorism,” the statement said. “We repudiate these baseless declarations and call on the international community to pressure Israel to revoke its decision.”
Major Israeli human rights groups, including B’Tselem and the Association for Civil Rights in Israel, as well as the liberal pro-Israel group J Street, were among the signatories.
Rights defenders have described the raid as part of a decades-long crackdown in the occupied territories on political activism.
“We know that there is a price to defend rights and citizens, and we are moving forward,” Jabarin said. | https://kdvr.com/news/nationalworld-news/ap-international/palestinian-activist-defies-israeli-interrogation-order/ | 2022-08-21T17:46:44Z | https://kdvr.com/news/nationalworld-news/ap-international/palestinian-activist-defies-israeli-interrogation-order/ | true | 31 |

DEAR ABBY: I have been interested in a woman for several years. During that time, I have dated her and helped her with her house. Today she called and asked me to walk her dog. I had to decline because I couldn't fit it in. She sent me two emails, back-to-back:
"Thanks, Fred, but one thing I'm sure of — anyone who isn't a friend of my dog is no friend of mine. Where's your Christian service now? I don't want you to check on my dog or me ever! You are a selfish guy who couldn't take a five-minute drive on a 60-degree day, and I hope I won't hear from you ever again. I wish you all the best. Enjoy sitting around taking care of you, yourself. Bye."
And, "A true friend would check on my dog and lock all the doors after, so don't go near my house or apartment. You are not a guy I want around. You think you're better than you are."
What do I do and how do I take this? — CONFUSED IN COLORADO
People are also reading…
DEAR CONFUSED: Because this is how your self-centered lady friend reacted when you told her you couldn't come when she whistled, it's a shame — for your sake — that she didn't say it years ago. What you should do now is take her emails to heart. Follow her instructions to the letter and don't let her hear from you again. She's bad news, and you can do better. Much better.
DEAR ABBY: My wife passed more than a year ago, and I am seeing a lady whose husband died five years ago. "Helen" had been going out with her boyfriend, "Harry," for two years, but he recently developed cancer and passed away.
We have grown close, but I have a problem. When we are in a romantic situation, Helen will call me "Harry." When it happens, it's upsetting, and I get defensive. I have a really hard time dealing with being called her last boyfriend's name. Sometimes I think I should walk away. What should I do? — MISIDENTIFIED IN FLORIDA
DEAR MISIDENTIFIED: If you care about Helen, recognize that she spent two years with dear, departed Harry, and stop taking it personally if she slips and calls you by his name once in a while. It's normal, and with time, it will stop happening.
DEAR ABBY: I am a 65-year-old male, and I recently went out of town on business with a 28-year-old male coworker. During the entire dinner, he continued looking up stuff and responding to texts on his cellphone. He spoke to me only a few times. When I tried to engage him in conversation, he would answer and then return to his phone.
I found his behavior rude and insulting. I understand the importance of phones. If he had received an important call or one from his wife during dinner and spoke for a short time, that would be fine. But when people stay glued to their phones throughout the dinner and the evening, I think it's rude. What's the protocol for these types of situations? — HANG UP IN ALABAMA
DEAR HANG UP: The proper protocol is to put the cellphone away or at least face down on the table during dinner. By failing to do that, your coworker sent you the unmistakable message that he wasn't interested in anything you might have wanted to discuss with him. Unless he was far behind in answering his work emails, I agree that his behavior was just plain rude.

Macaulay Langstaff identified the crowd inside Meadow Lane as a deciding factor in Notts County's comeback draw with Chesterfield on Saturday evening.
The summer signing from Gatsehead scored his second brace of the season in front of the home fans, with the Magpies two goals down heading into the final half an hour of the game.
Langstaff was on hand to produce two instinctive finishes, first capitalising on a mistake in the Spireites defence before timing his jump perfectly to plant Sam Austin's inch-perfect cross beyond Ross Fitzsimons.

And the 25-year-old could have gone home with the match ball, but was denied by some heroic defending on the line by Jamie Grimes and was also denied one-on-one by the Chesterfield 'keeper.
Speaking after the game, Langstaff said the influence of the Notts fans inside the stadium gave his side the boost they needed to get back into the game.
"You saw the crowd after the second goal, they gave us a massive lift," said Langstaff.
"They were like the twelfth man, and the second goal gave us so much momentum and energy within the stadium, and with the game a 2-2, we had plenty of time to push on and get the win.
"But like I say, we're really disappointed not to get the win, and I think even before the game we knew we should be winning the game, but to be 2-0 down with half an hour left, we showed great character to come back and gain a point."
It is now four goals in four games for Langstaff, however he is yet to get off the mark away from Meadow Lane, firing blanks at Boreham Wood and former club Gateshead with another away trip to Halifax Town coming up next Saturday.
While he was happy with another two goals in front of the home fans, Langstaff reiterated his desire to get off the mark away from home.
"100% and have said it there, I'd take two goals every time I step over the white line at Meadow Lane, but I want to get off the mark away from home," explained Langstaff.
"I have had two away games where there have been chances in those games for me, so I am disappointed to not get on the scoresheet in those two games, but like I say, I am sure it is going to come."
It's been an excellent start to life at Notts, and Langstaff has settled into the team like he has been at the club for years.
But with that fast start, comes pressure, which Langstaff is aware of but he explained he thrives off that expectation and wanted to make the number nine shirt his own when joining the club.
"I think it's hard as a player to not recognise social media and stuff like that," he added. "I see my name a lot, but there is expectation on me wearing the number nine shirt.
"It's a very famous shirt at this club, and there is a lot of expectations from the fans, the size of the club is massive.
"I do feel the pressure on me, but like I said before, I thrive off that pressure and the fans have helped me on that pitch to get those goals." | https://www.nottinghampost.com/sport/football/football-news/langstaff-pinpoint-notts-comeback-chesterfield-7491871 | 2022-08-21T17:58:23Z | https://www.nottinghampost.com/sport/football/football-news/langstaff-pinpoint-notts-comeback-chesterfield-7491871 | false | 1 |

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — When Minneapolis teachers settled a 14-day strike in March, they celebrated a groundbreaking provision in their new contract that was meant to shield teachers of color from seniority-based layoffs and help ensure that students from racial minorities have teachers who look like them.
Months later, conservative media outlets have erupted with denunciations of the policy as racist and unconstitutional discrimination against white educators. One legal group is looking to recruit teachers and taxpayers willing to sue to throw out the language. The teachers union paints the dispute as a ginned-up controversy when there’s no imminent danger of anyone losing their job. Meanwhile, the feud is unfolding just months ahead of arguments in a pair of U.S. Supreme Court cases that could reshape affirmative action.
“The same people who want to take down teachers unions and blame seniority are now defending it for white people,” said Greta Callahan, president of the teachers unit at the Minneapolis Federation of Teachers. “This is all made up by the right wing now. And we could not be more proud of this language.”
Recent coverage in conservative platforms such as the local news website Alpha News, Fox News nationally and the Daily Mail internationally sparked criticisms from prominent figures, including Donald Trump Jr. and former Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who curbed the power of public employee unions in his state. Walker on Twitter called it “another example of why government unions should be eliminated.”
The contract language doesn’t specifically say that white teachers would be laid off ahead of teachers of color, though critics say that’s what the effect would be. The contract exempts “teachers who are members of populations underrepresented among licensed teachers in the District,” as well as alumni of historically Black and Hispanic colleges, and of tribal colleges. Around 60% of the district’s teachers are white, while more than 60% of the students are from racial minorities.
Advocates say students from racial minorities perform better when their educators include teachers and support staff of color, and that it’s especially critical in a district that suffers from stubborn achievement gaps. Callahan said her union fought for years to get the protection added to their contract, and that she knows of two other Minnesota districts with similar provisions.
Minneapolis is one of many districts across the U.S. struggling with declining teacher headcounts and tight budgets. But Callahan disputed that the provision threatens anyone’s job, noting that Minneapolis has nearly 300 unfilled positions as teachers and students prepare to go back to school, and the language won’t take effect until the 2023 academic year.
Callahan called it “just one teensy, tiny step towards equity” that doesn’t begin to make up for many teachers of color quitting the district in recent years because they felt underpaid and disrespected.
To Lindsey West, a fifth grade teacher at Clara Barton Community School who identifies as Black and Indigenous, the seniority language is one piece of a bigger mission of improving education.
West said she feels strongly that students of color benefit from having teachers that look like them, but said she’s also seen that diversity can be empowering for white students. She said she’s sometimes been the first educator of color that Black or white students have had.
“We want to have kids from all demographics having experiences with people of different backgrounds and different cultures, and becoming aware that our shared humanity is what’s important, and not the things that divide us,” West said.
Minneapolis Public Schools interim Superintendent Rochelle Cox declined a request for an interview.
“The object of this provision is clearly to lay off white teachers first, regardless of merit, based on the color of their skin, and that is a big problem under the Constitution and the 14th Amendment,” said James Dickey, senior trial counsel at the Upper Midwest Law Center, a conservative nonprofit that often takes on public employee unions. It has brought litigation over such issues as COVID-19 mask mandates and displays of Black Lives Matter posters.
Dickey said his group is considering suing and has had a flood of Minneapolis taxpayers — and some teachers — contact them to say they are “offended that my tax dollars could go to fund this kind of racist agenda.”
He argued that a 1986 U.S. Supreme Court decision known as the Wygant case bars such provisions and would serve as a precedent in Minnesota.
The Wygant case involved a teachers contract in Jackson, Michigan, which took a different approach from the Minneapolis agreement. It effectively said Jackson could not make cuts that led to an overall reduction in the percentage of minority personnel employed in the district. White teachers sued after being laid off while some teachers of color with less seniority kept their jobs. A divided Supreme Court held that the layoffs violated the equal protection clause of the U.S. Constitution.
Andrew Crook, spokesman for the American Federation of Teachers, said he didn’t know of anything similar to the Minneapolis wording in contracts in other states, though he said some contracts provide exceptions from straight seniority rules for teachers in hard-to-fill specialties such as math and special education.
Officials with other national public employee unions and professional associations either said they didn’t know of anything similar in their fields or did not respond to requests for comment.
Two affirmative action cases set for oral arguments before the Supreme Court in October, involving Harvard University and the University of North Carolina, could have a bearing on the Minneapolis dispute. The cases are challenges to the consideration of race in college admission decisions.
Affirmative action has been reviewed by the high court several times over the past 40 years and has generally been upheld, but with limits. With three new conservative justices on the court since its last review, however, the practice may be facing its greatest threat yet.
Joseph Daly, a professor emeritus at the Mitchell Hamline School of Law who arbitrates disputes across the country, including many teacher cases over the years, said the Minneapolis language appears designed to survive a court challenge.
“The U.S. Supreme Court in the past has OK’d affirmative action when there were very valid objectives to be achieved in ultimately seeking equality for all human beings,” Daly said. “Now the question of today is: Will this concept be upheld by the courts in light of the more conservative stance on the Supreme Court? I don’t have an answer on that.” | https://www.ketk.com/news/national/minneapolis-teacher-contract-race-language-ignites-firestorm/ | 2022-08-21T18:06:31Z | https://www.ketk.com/news/national/minneapolis-teacher-contract-race-language-ignites-firestorm/ | true | 28 |

Canada agreed to “forever discharge” Catholic entities from their promise to raise $25 million for residential school survivors and also picked up their legal bill, a final release document shows.
The Canadian Press obtained a signed copy of the 2015 agreement through federal Access-to-Information laws, marking what appears to be the first time the document has been widely publicized.
“That’s a very, very important set of records,” said Ry Moran, an associate librarian at the University of Victoria and founding director of the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation.
“Like all questions around accountability … the question is who made the decision? How was that decision made? Who ultimately signed off on this?”
Indigenous leaders and legal experts have long questioned why Ottawa opted to give up an appeal of a court decision that meant Catholic entities didn’t have to pay their remaining financial obligations under the historic Indian Residential School Settlement Agreement.
The actions of the Catholic groups involved — and by extension, the Catholic Church as an institution — as well as Ottawa, have been under renewed scrutiny since the uncovering of what are believed to be hundreds of unmarked graves at former residential school sites, which First Nations began announcing last year.
The dispute in question arose years before and culminated in a court decision handed down by a Saskatchewan judge in July 2015.
The residential schools settlement obligated the 48 Catholic entities involved to pay $79 million, which was broken into three parts, including making “best efforts” to raise $25 million for residential school survivors.
There was a disagreement between Ottawa and the Catholic entities about one part of their obligations.
At issue was whether lawyers for both sides had struck a deal freeing the church groups from all their financial commitments — including the $25 million for survivors — in exchange for a payment of $1.2 million, or only had an agreement covering a more narrow part of their financial responsibilities.
Ultimately, Justice Neil Gabrielson ruled the agreement covered all the church’s financial commitments, allowing Catholic entities to walk away from their fundraising promise to survivors after raising less than $4 million.
Records obtained by The Canadian Press show that a month after that July 2015 decision, federal officials filed a “protective notice of appeal” while negotiating a final release agreement with the Catholic groups.
By Oct. 30, 2015, a final agreement was signed by the former deputy minister in what had been called Aboriginal and Northern Affairs Canada, freeing the Catholic entities of their financial obligations.
“Canada does hereby remise, release and forever discharge the Catholic entities … its directors, officers, shareholders, agents, lawyers, and employees … of and from all manners of actions, causes of action, suits, debts, dues, accounts, bonds whatsoever against the releasees,” it reads.
It continues: “Canada further covenants and agrees not directly or indirectly to join, assist, aid, or act in concert in any manner whatsoever with any person or entity in making any financial claim or demand whatsoever against the releasees.”
The signed agreement was released as part of more than 200 pages of briefing documents and court records prepared for Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister Marc Miller last fall after he committed to finding out what happened that led Canada to abandon its appeal. Many of the government records were redacted either in part, or in full.
Miller has, in at least one media interview, expressed openness to the idea of reviewing the government’s 2015 decision.
However, Canada’s agreement to “forever discharge” the Catholic entities and the broad language of the signed document raise questions about whether that can happen.
“The minister committed to understanding the circumstances and events that led the appeal to be dropped by the government of the day,” Miller’s office said in a statement Friday.
“He further committed to ensuring that the Catholic Church be held to account.”
A spokesperson also deferred questions to the Department of Justice about the legal fees paid by Canada.
Government documents suggest the decision to appeal hinged on whether the Catholic entities would try to relieve themselves further and broaden it to focus on their non-financial commitments under the settlement agreement.
“Should discussions around the order result in a release that is limited to three financial obligations, Canada will not pursue the appeal,” reads a document dated September 2015. It included an illegible signature from a former minister in Stephen Harper’s Conservative government, which at the time was in the middle of a federal election campaign.
Miller said it belongs to Bernard Valcourt, Harper’s former minister of aboriginal affairs.
The document noted releasing them from some of their non-financial obligations “could pose significant risk for Canada.”
“Of particular concern to Canada would be releasing the Catholic entities from obligations such as co-operating in the defence or resolution of all Indian Residential Schools abuse claims outside of the settlement agreement.”
While it said the court ruling could free Catholic entities from the “$21.5 million shortfall” of their fundraising campaign for survivors, “the likelihood of compelling the Catholic entities to meet their remaining fundraising obligations is very low.”
Finally, the document said appealing would mean Canada would be back at “square one” when it came to trying to get any agreement in place over settlement money with the Catholic entities.
Ken Young, a former regional chief at the Assembly of First Nations and a residential school survivor, said he doubts Canada would have been successful in an appeal.
“Canada could have litigated until the cows came home,” he said in a recent interview. “I think we’re in a new phase.”
Young, who is critical of how the Catholic churches’ said fundraising would depend on their “best efforts,” believes leaders have since learned their lesson.
He points to a promise made by the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops for dioceses to raise $30 million for reconciliation-related efforts over five years. As of July, they reported raising $4.6 million.
Young believes the bishops will keep their word, but said given the wealth of the Vatican and Catholic Church as an institution, fundraising shouldn’t be necessary.
“Write a cheque today, never mind bothering your parishioners to raise it.”

Marcus Rashford insists he has “always wanted to be at Manchester United”, with the England international suggesting that no attention was paid to the recent rumours claiming that he had emerged as a transfer target for Paris Saint-Germain. The 24-year-old forward has struggled for form and fitness in recent times, with only five goals recorded in the 2021-22 campaign, leading to questions being asked of his future.
His stock remains high enough for Ligue 1 giants PSG to cast admiring glances in his direction, but a man hoping to force his way into Gareth Southgate’s World Cup plans insists that no thought has been given to taking in a change of scenery.
Could Marcus Rashford leave Man Utd?
Quizzed by Sky Sports on whether he remains fully committed to United, Rashford said: “100 percent. For me that's a non-negotiable.
“The one thing that remains the same is your dedication and your commitment to training and the games. I feel like whatever the situation is I have to give 100 per cent for myself, family, friends and the fans.”
Pressed further on whether he could spend his entire career with the Red Devils, a man that has taken in 305 appearances to date added: “For me, I have always wanted to be at Manchester United for as long as possible and be competing for trophies at the club.
“Hopefully we can get back to doing that and it's something that I'm definitely pushing to do.”
PSG are interested in Marcus Rashford, according to L'Equipe 🇫🇷 pic.twitter.com/UE7hGIqp5Y

Are Man Utd on the right track?
Rashford is not the only one to have seen standards slip at United, with the club posting their worst Premier League points return last season – with only 58 taken from 38 games.
Another slow start has been made to the current campaign under new boss Erik ten Hag, with humbling defeats suffered at the hands of Brighton and Brentford.
Reflecting on the recent struggles and what needs to happen in order to put things right, Rashford said: “It's been tough, don't get me wrong. Especially last season, we didn't reach the heights we could have reached and we didn't reach the standards we are capable of.
“It's something to work towards and definitely right now the team is a work in progress. We have to understand the situation we are in and just keep pushing ourselves everyday.”
He added on welcoming Dutch coach Ten Hag to the dugout: “I think it just takes time to adapt. I think some managers we have adapted quicker than what we thought.
“The bottom line is that you get there and feel comfortable doing the stuff that the manager wants you to do. And also enjoying it.
“This manager definitely wants you to enjoy it and work hard as a unit. I have always said then when you do work hard as a unit, it is 10x more enjoyable.”
United will be back in action on Monday when welcoming arch-rivals Liverpool to Old Trafford for a crunch clash that will be played out against a backdrop of more supporter-led protests against the Glazer family and their ongoing presence as club owners. | https://www.goal.com/en-za/news/rashford-psg-transfer-man-utd-one-club-man/blt76fba0cf69884e45 | 2022-08-21T18:12:42Z | https://www.goal.com/en-za/news/rashford-psg-transfer-man-utd-one-club-man/blt76fba0cf69884e45 | true | 12 |
Nearly six months into the war in Ukraine, the Kremlin still refers to its invasion as a “special military operation” while trying to maintain a sense of normalcy at home.
But a series of Ukrainian attacks in Crimea, the Black Sea peninsula that President Vladimir Putin illegally annexed from Ukraine in 2014, is puncturing that narrative.
And as Ukrainian attacks mount in the strategically and symbolically important territory, the damage is beginning to put domestic political pressure on the Kremlin, with criticism and debate about the war increasingly being unleashed on social media and underscoring that even what the Russian government considers to be Russian territory is not safe.
On Saturday, a drone slammed into the headquarters of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet in Crimea, sending a plume of smoke over the port city of Sevastopol. Separately, in western Crimea, Russian troops launched anti-aircraft fire at unidentified targets, the region’s Russian governor said.
Local Russian officials blamed the drone attack on Ukraine and urged residents and beachgoers not to panic, while insisting there had been no injuries and that Russian air defenses were functioning properly.
But as images of anti-aircraft fire streaking through the blue Crimean sky ricocheted through social media, the visceral reality of war was becoming more and more apparent to Russians — many of whom have rallied behind the Kremlin’s line, hammered home in state media, that the “special military operation” to save Ukraine from Nazi domination is going smoothly and according to plan.
“People are beginning to feel that the war is coming to them,” Andrei Kortunov, director general of the Russian International Affairs Council, a research organization close to the Russian government, said in a phone interview. “I think this is serious.”
Ukraine has been engaged in a campaign to target Russian forces on the Crimean Peninsula. The attacks in Crimea appear to have begun in earnest on Aug. 9 with a strike on the Saki air base in which eight fighter jets were destroyed.
“One can literally feel in the air of Crimea that the occupation there is temporary, and Ukraine is returning,” President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine said on Saturday in his nightly address to the nation.
Kortunov said the Kremlin is likely to view the Ukrainian attacks not as a military threat but as “irritating,” showing Ukraine’s ability to threaten Russian lives deep behind the front lines. But it remained unclear how — or if — Putin would respond to the attacks, even as pro-Kremlin commentators called for retaliatory strikes.
Russia continues to retain military superiority, and the recent strikes in Crimea haven’t resulted in territorial gains for Ukraine. But they nevertheless appear to have dealt a psychological blow to Russia, undercutting the previous perception of Russian invincibility in a peninsula that exerts a strong hold on the Russian psyche.
Crimea is more than a pivotal military base. A sun-splashed resort and staging ground for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Crimea has particular symbolic resonance for Putin, who has called it Russia’s “holy land.”
Crimea is where czars and Politburo chairmen kept vacation homes, and where Putin is said to have built a palatial, multibillion-dollar estate. As home to Russia’s Black Sea Fleet, it also helps Russia exert control over the sea, including a naval blockade that has crippled Ukraine’s economy.
On the social network Telegram, one of Russia’s best-known state television hosts, Vladimir Solovyov, shared a post describing the attacks in Crimea and in Russian regions near the Ukrainian border as “some kind of surrealism.”
“Are we fighting or what are we doing?” the post by a pro-Kremlin military blogger asked. “Tough, cardinal measures must be taken, every day we pay for half-measures with human lives.”
While the military impact of the attacks may be minimal, there are mounting signs that local people are becoming unsettled by them, prompting officials to issue reassurances about their safety.
“I understand that many are worried,” the Russian governor of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhayev, said on his social media page on Saturday. “But that is exactly what the Ukrainian Reich” — a reference to Russia’s false characterization of Ukraine as a Nazi state — “wants to achieve.”
In an interview over a messaging app on Saturday, one resident of Sevastopol said she had never imagined that she would live to see the events of the last six months — both the war and the booms of antiaircraft fire that she said she had heard herself recently. She said that her solution was to try to continue living her life and to avoid the news.
“When you read the news, chaos erupts in your head,” said the woman, Elena, 34, who requested her last name be withheld for her security. “You get the feeling that all around you everything is exploding and burning and that you are in hell.” To bolster national morale or, perhaps, to poke another stick in the Kremlin’s eye, Ukraine staged an act of defiance on Saturday, with captured Russian tanks rolled into downtown Kyiv on flatbed trucks. Collected from battlefields in the east and south of the country, they were placed on the elegant thoroughfare leading to the Maidan, the square at the heart of the pro-Western uprising in 2014.
The disarray in Crimea comes as Russia’s war effort appears stalled on multiple fronts. Fighting in Kherson, in the south, and the Donbas region, in the east, has largely ground to a standstill. A Russian offensive to seize Donetsk province, part of the Donbas, has temporarily halted — partly, U.S. officials said, because Moscow rushed several thousand troops to the south to counter the anticipated Ukrainian offensive there.
In a reflection of the challenges Moscow is facing, the Russian state news media also reported Friday that the Kremlin had replaced the commander of the Black Sea Fleet after a series of setbacks that include the loss of its flagship vessel, Moskva, in April. Ukraine said it had used Neptune missiles to sink the Moskva, a strike Russia dismissed as an onboard accident. It was the biggest warship lost in combat in decades. As Ukraine stoked instability in Russian-controlled Crimea, there finally appeared to be some movement to get international inspectors into the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, Europe’s largest, which is occupied by Russian troops and where anxiety has been growing that shelling in the area could lead to a devastating meltdown.
In a conversation late Friday, Putin told his French counterpart, Emmanuel Macron, that Russia “had reconsidered” its insistence that inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency first travel through Russian territory to reach the Zaporizhzhia plant, according to the French presidency.
The IAEA, the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog and monitoring agency, has met with several obstacles in its discussions with Russia and Ukraine to get into the Zaporizhzhia plant since at least June.
Ukraine objected to the idea that the inspectors would enter through Russian-occupied territory, an option that would seem to underscore Russian control of the plant, which provides at least one-fifth of Ukraine’s electricity. The United Nations had significant security concerns about having inspectors travel through the front lines of this bitter war, with so much shelling.
The war also continued to reverberate outside Ukraine, including in ongoing concerns that the Kremlin was using Russia’s vast energy resources as a weapon to punish the West.
The Russian energy giant Gazprom said it would close the taps of its Nord Stream pipeline to Germany from Aug. 31 to Sept. 2 to replace a turbine with the help of its manufacturer, Siemens. Gazprom has said Western sanctions have slowed repairs, reducing gas flows by up to 60%. But Berlin has accused Gazprom of playing politics on Moscow’s behalf.
“The Russian side’s justification is simply a pretext,” Robert Habeck, Germany’s economy minister, told reporters in Berlin in June. “It is obviously the strategy to unsettle and drive up prices.”

Imran Khan booked under anti-terror act for threatening judge, police officials
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan was booked for threatening a judge and two top police officials in a public meeting held at the F-9 Park late Saturday evening, local media reported.

- Pakistan
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan was booked for threatening a judge and two top police officials in a public meeting held at the F-9 Park late Saturday evening, local media reported. According to The News International, Khan was booked under the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA).
Meanwhile, Pakistan's media regulatory authority has banned the broadcasting of live speeches of PTI chief Imran Khan for threatening an Islamabad police official and a female magistrate during an address in Islamabad. The Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) said that Imran's recorded speech would only be permitted to be aired after an effective delay mechanism to ensure effective monitoring and editorial control.
"...Chairman PEMRA in view of the above-mentioned background and reasons, in the exercise of delegated powers of the Authority vested in Section 27(a) of the PEMRA Ordinance 2002 as amended by PEMRA (Amendment) Act 2007, hereby prohibits the broadcast of live speech of Mr Imran Khan on all satellite TV channels with immediate effect," the PEMRA said in its notification. PEMRA imposed this ban on all satellite channels hours after he vowed to file cases against Islamabad's inspector-general, deputy inspector general, and female magistrate for "torturing" Shahbaz Gill.
Imran alleged that Gill was "caught and tortured" to send a message and frighten the people that if he could be broken mentally then anyone could, according to Geo News. Earlier on Saturday, Khan connected the current situation in Pakistan to the chief of army staff's appointment and termed it "unfortunate" that everything in the country was happening over one appointment.
Gill was arrested by the police on August 9 after he made controversial remarks against the Pakistan army on television that were deemed as "highly hateful and seditious" by the country's media authority. Imran's close aide was arrested on charges of colluding with a private TV news channel in carrying out anti-state propaganda. (ANI)

Everything to know about HBO Max’s most anticipated show of the year, coming this weekend
To paraphrase Cersei Lannister, when you play the game of big-budget fantasy prequel TV shows, you win or you die. Okay, so the outcome of a fight between warring streamers isn’t that existential, and she was also talking about playing a different kind of game — “the game of thrones.” Even so, that still doesn’t lower the stakes of the highly anticipated TV matchup that gets underway this weekend, with the debut on HBO Max of the Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon.
Following hot on its heels will be Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. That one is another lavish prequel series with a massive budget, and it‘s coming on September 2. It serves, of course, as a prequel for the J.R.R. Tolkien story brought to life in director Peter Jackson’s movie trilogy. And it should tell you all you need to know about how important it is to Amazon’s streaming video service, that the company bought airtime to show off early footage during this year’s Super Bowl.
First up, though, is House of the Dragon. And we’ll tell you all about it below.
Cast, trailer, release date
Make of this what you will, but it’s surely a positive sign that Thrones creator George R.R. Martin has not only seen all 10 episodes of House of the Dragon. He also says, via his personal blog, that he’s “loved what I’ve seen.”
The House of the Dragon cast includes: Paddy Considine, Matt Smith, Olivia Cooke, Emma D’Arcy, Steve Toussaint, Eve Best, Fabien Frankel, Sonoya Mizuno, and Rhys Ifans. The show debuts on Sunday, August 21, with subsequent episodes released each Sunday (which takes us through October 23).
The House of The Dragon trailer that HBO Max released on July 20, meanwhile, has racked up more than 18.3 million views on YouTube as of the time of this writing. Check it out below.
: House of the Dragon’s biggest spoiler and full plot leaked online
What will House of the Dragon be about?
Here’s the logline from HBO Max. “Based on George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood, the series, set 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, tells the story of House Targaryen.”
If you want to get an early sense of what House of the Dragon is all about, definitely get your hands on a copy of Fire & Blood. It’s set a few hundred years before the events in Westeros that Game of Thrones fans are already familiar with. And it’s written by the Archmaester Gyldayn of the Citadel, in a style that Martin’s publisher has compared to The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire.
As for the show’s tone and style? In the House of the Dragon trailer above, Corlys Velaryon can be heard intoning at one point: “What is this brief, mortal life, if not the pursuit of legacy?”
That pursuit is about to begin in earnest.

Union Minister Nitin Gadkari Promises US-like Roads for Bihar and UP by 2024
Mumbai: Indian road infrastructure will be developed up to world standards, the Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari said adding the road infrastructure in India will be similar to that of the United States.
Addressing National Conference for Civil Engineers and Professionals from Allied Industries, being organised by Association of Consulting Civil Engineers (ACCE) in Mumbai, the Union Minister said, “I have decided to make Indian road infrastructure, even in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, up to the road infrastructure standards of USA, before end of 2024.”

He said India has got huge potential in infrastructure and urged the engineers and industry professionals at the conference to do their bit in improving the road infrastructure in the country.
“In Indian infrastructure, there is huge potential for road construction, river connectivity, solid and liquid waste management, parking plaza, irrigation, busports, ropeways and cable car projects,” he said.
He also spoke about various ongoing projects of the Ministry of Road, Transport and Highways and said the government will construct 26 green express highways by 2024 and it will help us in bringing down travel time between key cities across the country.
“We are making 26 Green express highways and logistics parks of Rs 2 lakh crores. At the same time, we have many innovative ideas by which we can develop infrastructure further,” Gadkari added.

The Union Minister asked the engineers to find alternatives to cement and other raw materials.
“Glass fibre steel can be used in place of steel. Ifthere is competition, cost will come down and become reasonable,” he said adding, “We need to accept good technology, research, innovation and successful practices from across the world and from within India. We should use alternative materials to reduce cost without compromising on quality. Time is the most important aspect in construction, it is the biggest asset.” | https://english.sakshi.com/news/national/union-minister-nitin-gadkari-promises-us-roads-bihar-and-2024-159836 | 2022-08-21T18:51:42Z | https://english.sakshi.com/news/national/union-minister-nitin-gadkari-promises-us-roads-bihar-and-2024-159836 | false | 1 |
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.

Residents in eastern Ontario are still recovering after a tornado-producing thunderstorm left a path of destruction over 55 kilometres long and up to 1,400 metres wide in July.
Such thunderstorms, and the damage they leave behind, can have deep and far-reaching impacts on society and the economy, and they are only increasing.
In Canada, the new normal for yearly insured catastrophic losses has reached $2 billion — a significant increase from the $422 million per year between 1983 and 2008 — and a significant chunk of that is from thunderstorm-related severe and extreme weather.
We at the Northern Tornadoes Project and the recently launched offshoot — The Northern Hail Project — are often asked whether these severe and extreme weather events are on the rise, and if this has anything to do with manmade climate change? The simple answer is: it’s complicated.
The difference between severe and extreme
Severe thunderstorms occur in Canada every year, bringing with them large hail, damaging downburst winds, intense rainfall and tornadoes. More rare and of even greater concern are extreme weather events — with their size, intensity or even time of year well beyond what is typically expected based on past observations.
Extreme weather conditions include tornadoes causing damage rated EF3-EF5 and significant hail of over five centimetres in diameter. Extreme weather can also arise when large hail accompanies downburst winds — increasing the hailstone impact energy — or when a long-lived thunderstorm system results in a derecho, which is a cluster of downbursts (and sometimes embedded tornadoes) resulting in intense damage over hundreds of kilometres.
In September 2018, for example, a tornado outbreak in the National Capital Region caused catastrophic damage resulting in over $300 million in insured losses. It is also the latest in the year that a tornado outbreak with up to EF3 damage has been recorded in Canada.
In June 2020, Calgary experienced Canada’s first billion-dollar hailstorm and fourth costliest natural disaster on record, with insured losses of $1.3 billion. The derecho in May 2022 that mainly affected southern Ontario took 12 lives, with early estimates of insured losses close to $900 million. And that’s just over the last four years.
How can we detect these trends?
Such events and their impacts cannot be adequately assessed and documented using standard operational weather observation platforms such as radar and surface weather stations.
Tornado tracks and hailswaths are inherently narrow and often pass between stations. Radar can capture some of the key meteorology, but not the impacts on the ground.
Comprehensive storm surveys by weather and engineering experts are required to fully assess and document the meteorology and its physical impacts through what we call an “event-based approach”. In fact, we recently added a social science component to such investigations to better capture the impacts on people and communities. The living database that results from these storm surveys can always be updated as new information is discovered.
This approach allowed the Northern Tornadoes Project to uncover one of the largest recorded tornado outbreaks in Canadian history — 23 tornadoes over two days in Québec — and increase the number of tornadoes documented across Canada each year. It has also allowed the new Northern Hail Project to recover and document Canada’s largest hailstone on Aug. 1, 2022.
The greater the length and better the quality of a national database of these events, the more likely it is that any severe and extreme storm trends will be detected.
Some progress has been made
The tornado data for Southern Ontario is of sufficient length and quality to allow us to begin to look for trends. A 2022 study found that the annual number of tornadoes recorded there since 1875 has grown substantially. But that is mainly due to an increase in weak tornadoes — ones that might have gone unreported in the past but now fail to escape the attention of the expanding population with consumer-grade cameras at the ready and access to social media for sharing.
The same study found, however, that tornadoes rated F/EF2+ in southern Ontario occurred gradually later in the year since 1875, now peaking in late summer rather than early summer.
Meanwhile, in the U.S., studies have shown that tornadoes may be occurring in bigger clusters and starting to shift eastward – away from the Great Plains and into more populated areas.
In all cases, clear connections to man-made climate change have not yet been established. It is also yet unknown whether extreme storms are changing in ways that are different from severe storms. But it’s still early and research in this area is growing rapidly.
While storm trends are studied, prepare for increased impacts
Canadians are recording and sharing images and experiences of severe and extreme storms more than ever before, increasing the documentation of these events. As the population continues to grow and spread out, the damage and losses caused by thunderstorms will continue to grow.
At the same time, we are learning more about changing storm patterns and possible connections to climate change. Continuing to increase the length and quality of our national severe and extreme storm event database is needed to better understand such changes.
In the meantime, developing adaptation strategies to ensure resiliency and to lessen the impact of inevitable damaging storms is becoming increasingly important. Improving upon building codes and other policies to promote more resilient buildings and communities is urgently needed to better protect the lives and property of Canadians. | https://theconversation.com/canada-is-witnessing-more-thunderstorms-than-ever-before-188288 | 2022-08-21T18:57:07Z | https://theconversation.com/canada-is-witnessing-more-thunderstorms-than-ever-before-188288 | false | 2 |

NEW YORK (AP) — Eight years ago, Paul O’Neill was thanked by the Yankees for his contributions to their dynasty with a plaque in Monument Park.
On Sunday, the Yankees retired his No. 21 — the 23rd player or manager in the franchise to have that happen.
The ceremony was drastically different that others have been, not only because he is not vaccinated against COVID-19 but also because the Yankees entered Sunday with 14 losses in 18 games. Frustrations are high to the point that there were noticeable boos for managing general partner Hal Steinbrenner and general manager Brian Cashman during the 33-minute ceremony.
New York’s first jersey retirement ceremony since 2017, when Derek Jeter’s No. 2 was honored, had the usual video tributes and messages, gifts and an acceptance speech.
During his roughly eight-minute speech, O’Neill thanked the fans numerous times. He opened by saying: “You Yankee fans have obviously been practicing and it sounds great still today.”
A four-time World Series champion as a Yankee, O’Neill was nicknamed “The Warrior” by late owner George Steinbrenner. “The fans remember the teams that win and we won,” O’Neill said. “And we won a lot.”
O’Neill hit .303 with 185 homers and 858 RBIs for the Yankees from 1993 to 2001. He was a four-time All-Star with the team and won the 1994 AL batting title during a strike-shortened season.
He wore No. 21 for his entire big league career, starting as a rookie with the Reds in 1985.
“That’s why I’m celebrating this day, because this is the biggest dream that I’ve ever had in my life,” O’Neill said in his speech.
Former trainer Gene Monahan was there, along with teammates Tino Martinez, Bernie Williams, Jorge Posada, Andy Pettitte and Mariano Rivera.
Six minutes into the ceremony, O’Neill stood next to his wife and family to unveil his retire number in Monument Park. He was brought on to the field in a golf cart as highlights played on the videoboard — including his final home game in Game 5 of the 2001 World Series and his running catch to end Game 5 of the 1996 World Series.
Then there were brief video messages from Jeter, Joe Torre, David Cone and Don Mattingly, along with a message from Roberto Clemente Jr., the Hall of Famer’s son and a former Yankee Spanish-language announcer.
“Obviously, Paul is a central figure in one of the many great times in Yankee baseball and dynasties,” manager Aaron Boone said before the Yankees faced Toronto, adding, “It’s fun to know Paul in a friendly, even silly guy that sometimes is a contrast with who he was in between those lines.”
Steinbrenner gave O'Neill a framed plaque of his jersey; other gifts included a custom wine bottle with his No. 21, a framed jersey signed by current Yankees and a water cooler, a nod to his tendencies to slam water coolers in the dugout.
The signed framed jersey was the closest thing O’Neill had to any interaction with New York’s current roster because of his vaccination status; unvaccinated personnel are barred from interaction with any players in the dugout and clubhouse.
O’Neill has called games on the YES Network from his Ohio home since the pandemic 2020 season. In an interview with NJ Advance Media published Saturday, O’Neill said of his vaccination status, “I’d rather not discuss that.”
Since O’Neill retired after the 2001 World Series, the only New York player to wear No. 21 was reliever LaTroy Hawkins at the opening of the 2008 season, but he switched back not too long after the season started.

Helen Paul cautions Yomi Fabiyi for sharing a vulnerable video of his child’s mother in labour to prove a point (Video)
Helen Paul cautioned her colleague, Yomi Fabiyi after the actor used a vulnerable video of his child’s mother to score a point in their feud.
Yomi can be seen smiling in a video taken while Amarachi Grace Jimoh was in labor, while the pregnant mother begged him to stop filming and call the doctor.
“When we were doing it at the time, you were enjoying it,” Yomi is heard telling Amarachi while she begged for a doctor.
Reacting to the video, Helen Paul told Yomi that is wrong for him to share it online.
Yomi shared the video this morning after Amarachi accused him of not providing for her and their child.
He shared the video to prove he’s been there for her from the time she was in labour.
Yomi said in the caption that the video shows that Amarachi’s claim that he abused her days before delivery is not true.

Craig Reagan, Aggie class of '02, spends most of his day watching the news, using the computer, and snuggling with his pets and young daughter Sofia.
He was once able to build homes, work on cars, and take long camping trips with the family. But six years of living with ALS has taken away all basic mobility.
“ALS can happen to anybody at any time, and the reason is unknown," Reagan said.
After attending a high school reunion last month in his hometown of New Caney, Reagan [now a College Station resident] caught up with all his old buddies. The group of men all share a common love of classic cars and conceived a novel idea for their friend; to refurbish and rebuild Reagan’s 1973 Mach 1 Ford Mustang that he drove as a teen.
“The majority of us classmates had not seen each other for 37 years," said Brett McMath, a high school friend of Reagan's.
The friends have started a GoFundMe campaign to raise money for car parts, and are already making a lot of progress, all for the goal of bringing Reagan joy.
“Craig has brought a group of people together that were just kind of Facebook friends," McMath said. "And now we’re spending days every week together.”
Reagan has worked hard to reach out to legislators and promote public awareness of new medications going through clinical trials. He's particularly excited about the Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics Inc. drug NurOwn, which has now passed Phase III of clinical trials, according to Reuters.
Reagan said the medications he’s taken so far have not reversed his symptoms, only slowed their progression.
"The Mayo Clinic, six years ago this week, gave me 20 to 23 months to live.”
With the support of friends like his high school buddies, and with hope for medical developments Reagan remains resilient. He remains resilient for those he loves the most like his wife Nancy, a stewardess for Southwest and Reagan's primary caregiver.
She likes to imagine the potential for medical advancement in ALS treatment.
"You know, we want to continue our lives and dreams with our children," she said. "If we could get this drug and have any kind of improvement at all, where he could use his limbs where he could possibly walk and drive again, we could just be normal and look to the future instead of thinking that he's stuck."

Almost 200 DCPS school buses delayed on first day back to school
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Duval County Public Schools students wrapped up their first day back to school Monday.
In a media briefing, Superintendent Dr. Diana Greene called it an overall success, despite the transportation delays.

“It is always an issue on the first day and the first couple of weeks,” she said.
Almost 200 school buses were delayed on the first day, some as late as an hour and a half.
“This year I have two new words: patience and engagement. On the first day of school, patience with our one issue that we had today, transportation,” she added.
Greene says there are almost 900 school bus routes across the county, while the district still needs around 50 additional drivers to cover all of its routes.
“Our contractors are in the process of hiring over 100 drivers, but it does take time,” Greene said. “Hopefully over the next few weeks we will see those delays get better.”
Greene said other challenges include drivers learning new routes, and consolidating them.
She also said schools with many Exceptional Student Education students have seen delays, because drivers need to take extra care loading students and items like wheelchairs.
The bus driver shortage is just one part of the problem the district is facing this start of the school year. DCPS still needs 389 teachers and 111 paraprofessionals in its 154 schools.
Despite the challenges, Greene is confident moving forward.
“I believe that we are going to have a fantastic ‘22-’23 school year,” Greene concluded.
In the briefing, Greene also said more than 95% of requests for substitute teachers were filled the first day of school. Greene said last year, the fill rate was at 75% on the first day.

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis voiced worry Sunday about the situation in Nicaragua, where police detained several Roman Catholic clergy, including a bishop, critical of President Daniel Ortega’s administration.
Calling for “open and sincere dialogue,” the pontiff made his first public comment on the Friday raid of Matagalpa Bishop Rolando Alvarez’s residence. The detention of him and an unknown number of priests came amid worsening tensions between the church and a government increasingly intolerant of dissent.
Francis told thousands of people gathered in St. Peter’s Square for his customary Sunday noon remarks that he was closely following with “worry and sorrow” events in Nicaragua that involve “persons and institutions.” He didn’t mention the detentions.
“I would like to express my conviction and my hope that through means of open and sincere dialogue, one can still find the bases for respectful and peaceful co-existence,” the pope said.
Before Friday’s pre-dawn raid, Nicaraguan authorities had accused the bishop of “organizing violent groups” and inciting them “to carry out acts of hate against the population.”
The National Police confirmed the detentions, saying the operation was carried out to allow “the citizenry and families of Matagalpa to recover normalcy.” It didn’t cite specific charges.
“For several days, a positive communication from the Matagalpa diocese was awaited with a lot of patience, prudence and sense of responsibility, that never materialized,” the statement said. “With the continuation of the destabilizing and provocative activities, the aforementioned public order operation became necessary.”
Álvarez was held under guard at a house in Managua and allowed to meet with relatives and Cardinal Leopoldo Brenes, the police statement said. The police didn’t name the priests who were taken into custody.
Álvarez has been a key religious voice in discussions of Nicaragua’s future since 2018, when a wave of protests against Ortega’s government led to a sweeping crackdown on opponents.
Ortega’s government arrested dozens of opposition leaders last year, including seven potential presidential candidates. They were sentenced to prison this year in quick trials closed to the public.
Ortega has contended the pro-democracy protests were carried out with foreign backing and with the support of the Catholic church.
The former Marxist guerrilla infuriated the Vatican in the 1980s, but gradually forged an alliance with the church as he moved to regain the presidency in 2007 after a long period out of power.
But days before last year’s presidential election that resulted in Ortega winning a fourth consecutive term, he accused the Central American nation’s Catholic bishops of having drafted a political proposal in 2018 on behalf “of the terrorists, at the service of the Yankees.” He also contended the bishops weree “also terrorists.”
In March, Nicaragua expelled the papal nuncio, the Vatican’s top diplomat in Nicaragua.
The government has shut eight Matagalpa province radio stations, seven of them run by the Catholic church. | https://www.ktsm.com/news/international/pope-voices-worry-over-bishops-detention-in-nicaragua/ | 2022-08-21T19:02:55Z | https://www.ktsm.com/news/international/pope-voices-worry-over-bishops-detention-in-nicaragua/ | true | 27 |

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — Florida deputies had to pull a suspect out of a swamp after he tried hiding in a pond while fleeing from them, as seen on body cam video.
The Flagler County Sheriff’s Office said Alunzo Devon Peoples, 23, of Gainesville fled from deputies Thursday morning when a deputy tried to pull his vehicle over due to a suspended license.
Peoples did a u-turn and tried to speed away while a deputy followed from a safe distance, according to deputies.
The sheriff’s office said the suspect continued making turns and ran through a red light before it drove over another deputy’s stop sticks on CR-304. This caused the vehicle to lose control and crash into a canal.
Peoples then abandoned the vehicle, prompting deputies to set up a perimeter and search for him.
The sheriff’s office said Peoples was found in a cypress pond 200 yards away from the crash site after a helicopter with the Volusia Sheriff’s Office spotted his heat signature from the air.
Flagler County marine deputies then deployed an airboat to find him.
Body cam video showed the deputies call out for Peoples, who told them he was coming to turn himself in. The deputies then asked him if he was injured as he was being handcuffed.
“Hey, chin up, everything’s done now,” one deputy said to Peoples. “Hey, no hard feelings. It is what it is. You got caught.”
The sheriff’s office said 2.56 gram of cocaine were found in a plastic bag that fell out of People’s vehicle while it was being towed away.
“We do not give up getting our man,” Sheriff Rick Staly added. “Fleeing from a deputy is never a smart move. You only go to jail tired and, in this case, muddy and wet! He also endangered our deputies and citizens with his reckless driving.”
Peoples was arrested on four charges, including fleeing and eluding and cocaine possession. | https://cw39.com/news/nationworld/video-florida-man-crashes-while-fleeing-deputies-tries-hiding-in-swamp/ | 2022-08-21T19:05:01Z | https://cw39.com/news/nationworld/video-florida-man-crashes-while-fleeing-deputies-tries-hiding-in-swamp/ | false | 15 |

According to information released on Sunday, PTI Chairman Imran Khan was charged with violating Section 7 of the Anti-Terrorism Act (penalty for acts of terrorism) because of remarks he made during a rally in Islamabad the previous day.
A copy of the first information report (FIR), which was filed at Islamabad’s Margalla police station at 10 p.m. on Saturday in response to the magistrate’s complaint, Ali Javed, is accessible.
Imran “terrorised and intimidated top police personnel and a respected female additional sessions judge” during the PTI gathering at F-9 Park, according to the FIR.
The PTI chairman’s remark was included in the FIR.Imran had vowed to file proceedings against Islamabad’s inspector general and deputy inspector general of police in his speech on Saturday, saying, “We won’t spare you.”
At the request of the capital police, Additional District and Sessions Judge Zeba Chaudhry had authorised Gill’s two-day physical remand. The former premier had also objected to the decision and advised Gill to “prepare herself as action will be done against her.”
Imran’s speech, according to the FIR, was intended to “terrorise” senior police officers and the judiciary so they could not carry out their duties and refrain from taking any necessary action against anyone associated with the PTI. | https://dailythepatriot.com/imran-was-arrested-after-his-islamabad-speech-for-terrorising-the-police-and-courts/ | 2022-08-21T19:22:08Z | https://dailythepatriot.com/imran-was-arrested-after-his-islamabad-speech-for-terrorising-the-police-and-courts/ | false | 1 |
DALLAS (AP) — Labor unions are pressuring U.S. airlines not to buy back their own stock but instead spend the money on hiring more workers and fixing problems that caused widespread flight delays and cancellations this summer.
The unions said Thursday that the four largest U.S. airlines spent more than $39 billion on stock buybacks from 2014 through 2019 rather than making investments to help employees and passengers.
The airlines are currently barred from buying back their own shares as a condition of $54 billion in federal pandemic aid, but that prohibition ends after Sept. 30. Union officials worry that buybacks will come back now that most U.S. airlines have returned to profitability after huge losses in 2020 and 2021.
The unions, which represent pilots, flight attendants, mechanics, baggage handlers and other workers, launched a campaign and petition drive that portrays buyouts as a giveaway to Wall Street and a tool for airline executives to boost their own stock-based compensation.
“We paused the greed in aviation for a little while,” said Sara Nelson, president of the Association of Flight Attendants. She blamed “greed that ran rampant before COVID” with leaving airlines understaffed.
The unions asked airlines to pledge to forgo buybacks until until airlines fix their “operational meltdowns” and reach new labor contracts — unions are seeking substantial wage increases.
A union representative said Thursday that none of the airlines immediately agreed to the pledge.
The chief financial officer of American Airlines, Derek Kerr, said in a recent interview that buybacks are not on the table.
“There is no plan to do any share repurchases. All of our excess liquidity will go to pay off debt,” Kerr said. A spokesman said Thursday that is still American’s position.
United Airlines said that it is not currently seeking buybacks. “Our highest financial priorities right now are restoring our balance sheet and investing in our employees and customers,” a spokeswoman said.
Asked about share repurchases last month, Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian did not answer directly because of the prohibition, but he said the airline has a responsibility to customers, employees, “and importantly to our owners.” A Delta spokesman said Thursday that the company has raised base pay 4% and made profit-sharing payments to employees.
A Southwest Airlines spokesman said only that the airline has not announced any plans for buybacks.
Airlines could be tempted to repurchase stock because the shares might appear cheap. The Arca index of airline stocks is down 21% this year and 41% since the start of 2020. Most U.S. airlines reported second-quarter profits, however, and revenue is surging on strong ticket sales.
Stock buybacks are a favorite target of unions and Democratic lawmakers, who often see them as widening inequality between workers and wealthier investors. The climate, health care and tax bill that President Joe Biden signed this week includes a new 1% excise tax on them beginning next year.
Corporations view buybacks as a way to reward shareholders by reducing the number of shares and making the remaining ones more valuable. Investors often prefer them over dividends, which are treated as ordinary income and taxed at up to 37%. If buybacks boost a stock’s value, investors who hold the shares long enough pay a lower capital-gains tax on the profit when they sell — no more than 20%.
“There is nothing inherently wrong with a buyback. It just gives shareholders a return on their investment,” said Charles Elson, founding director of a corporate-governance center at the University of Delaware.
Elson, however, said there are pitfalls. Companies might pay too much for the stock, wasting money. And executives with stock options benefit from buybacks but not from dividends, a problem that he said can be fixed by giving the executives restricted stock units instead of options.
Charles Tharp, a Boston University management professor who advises corporate boards on compensation, said that raising employee pay and buying back stock are separate decisions.
When companies approve buybacks, “it does look like I’m choosing to serve shareholders instead of employees,” he said, “but that assumes you would give the raise to employees if you didn’t buy back shares, which probably isn’t the case.”
Tharp said if companies believe they need to raise pay to be competitive, they will make that decision regardless of whether they buy back shares.
In 2020, the labor unions provided key support for giving taxpayer money to the airlines, which were warning they faced disaster from a plunge in travel during the early days of the pandemic. Union officials and Democratic lawmakers insisted that the aid be tied to a ban on buybacks and limits on executive compensation.
Airlines were barred from furloughing employees during the pandemic, but they were allowed to pay incentives that led tens of thousands of workers to quit. The airlines were understaffed when air travel bounced back this spring and summer, contributing to about 45,000 canceled flights and 472,000 delays since June 1.

Watch: Yankees Owner Booed By Fans On Sunday Afternoon
The New York Yankees have lost 15 of their last 19 games and look nothing like the team that was destroying the rest of Major League Baseball prior to the All-Star break. So it should be no surprise that fans weren't thrilled to see their club's owner on Sunday.
The Yankees were celebrating the career of team legend Paul O'Neill today, presenting him with a plaque to honor his No. 21 jersey. But when team owner Hal Steinbrenner approached O'Neill to shake his hand, Yankee Stadium started booing him.
Steinbrenner and O'Neill tried to play off the noise, but it was pretty audible as they tried to share a moment together.
The video of the ceremony and the accompanying booing has over 60,000 views and climbing. The tweet from Talkin' Yanks has over 2,400 likes and 300 retweets.
The Yankees have been pretty down bad in recent weeks. Offensively they've been downright anemic, being held to three runs or less in 10 of their last 11 games.
Worse still, their once dominating lead for the top spot in the American League has been evaporating. They're now only eight games ahead of the Toronto Blue Jays in the division race and nine ahead of the Cleveland Guardians.
There's also the looming issue of the team potentially losing star slugger Aaron Judge to free agency after failing to reach terms of a new deal with him.

Since the 2020 election, mainstream platforms like Twitter and Facebook have been more liberal in applying measures to block, label and remove politicians — including their watershed decisions to suspend former President Trump’s accounts last year.
But as more politicians test the boundaries of the platforms’ rules with incendiary posts, especially after an uptick in violent rhetoric following last week’s FBI search of Mar-a-Lago, critics warn that tech companies need to do more than dust off their 2020 playbooks to follow through on their commitments to block misinformation and hate speech.
New York University researcher Laura Edelson said to get at the core of the issue, platforms need to reassess the algorithms recommending content to users.
She compared taking content down after amplifying it to a wide online audience — the approach most platforms use, and plan to use ahead of November based on their public posts — to creating a car with no brakes and only airbags.
“By the time those are useful, the car’s crashed,” she said.
Meta, Twitter and TikTok released their plans to moderate midterm election-related content in the past two weeks. Largely, the companies plan to deploy the same tactics as they did in 2020. All three said they will label such posts and point users to their respective election centers with authoritative voting information from partner organizations and local officials.
TikTok gained more widespread appeal since the last election. And despite some warnings about national security concerns over its parent company ByteDance being based in China, which TiKTok has refuted, more candidates are using the platform to reach voters — especially young ones.
TikTok does not allow paid political advertising, meaning the content it’s moderating will mostly be organic posts. The company said it will label all posts related to midterm elections, regardless of if there’s a disputed comment.
Facebook, now under the parent company name Meta, took that approach in 2020, but the company signaled a shift for this season. Meta President of Global Affairs Nick Clegg said in a blog post if labels are deployed, they will be used in a “targeted and strategic way” after feedback from users that the 2020 labels were “over-used.”
According to a Meta fact sheet, the company has “hundreds of people focused on the midterms across more than 40 teams” and spent $5 billion on global safety and security last year. But reports indicate the company is cutting back on content moderation to a degree. About 60 contract workers at Accenture working for Facebook for services like content moderation would be losing their jobs, Insider reported Thursday.
A Meta spokesperson declined to comment about the report.
Facebook has been criticized over its handling of misinformation in the 2020 election, with critics saying the company didn’t do enough to stop the spread of false narratives casting doubt on election results or false claims about voter fraud.
“Facebook again hasn’t fundamentally changed anything and they have defunded their own program of whack-a-mole,” Edelson said.
She said the lack of change is worrying due to a spike in conspiracy theories about local elections and federal law enforcement.
“And now they’re being tied together as if this is some grand conspiracy,” she said.
Twitter said in a blog post last week it would label posts with misleading content or claims about voting, including false information about the outcome of the election.
The election-specific policies from social media giants appear focused on claims of voter fraud or suppression, referencing the Stop the Steal movement casting doubt on President Biden’s win that gained steam online in 2020, despite platforms’ efforts to fight such misinformation. The false narrative, amplified by Trump and his allies, gave rise to the violent riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6 of last year.
After the FBI searched Mar-a-Lago, there’s been an increase in violent rhetoric on mainstream and fringe sites that are casting the move as politically motivated against Trump. The posts are raising alarms about potential real world attacks.
Jacqueline Maralet, an assistant director at the Digital Forensic Research Lab, said the platforms’ election policies address far-right extremism “mostly insofar as, ‘This type of speech is already not allowed under our content moderation policies.’”
They may take actions against specific candidates that “push too far into” the edge of “clearly inciting violence,” she said, but it’s not yet clear how strictly platforms will enforce their guidelines.
Facebook and Twitter have been taking stricter action against politicians than they did before the 2020 election, including cutting elected officials off from their accounts.
In addition to the suspensions of Trump — Twitter’s permanent and Facebook’s lasting until at least 2023 — over the past year the companies have suspended various lawmakers, mostly for violations of their COVID-19 misinformation policy.
Twitter, for example, permanently suspended Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-Ga.) personal account in January for that reason, although her official congressional account remains active.
Martin Rooke, a research fellow at Harvard’s Shorenstein Center, said moderating content for medical misinformation is “far simpler” than it is for posts linked to events like the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago which are “inherently political,” however.
Regarding medical misinformation, “there are scientific authorities that can be consulted with,” he said.
“But with this Mar-a-Lago event, when does content moderation really start to step on freedom of expression around being critical of law enforcement agencies, being critical of the government as well? I think that’s where the more mainstream social media platforms are really going to run up against their limit of what they are prepared to do or what they can legally do,” Rooke said.
That can be just as challenging around campaign-centered language, he said.
“You could say, ‘Alright, well, we’ll try and tamper down on sort of jingoistic expressions.’ But almost every election there’s language about it being a contest, a battle, a flight for freedom, fight for the future — stuff like that,” Rooke said. “That combative language is embedded in our very modern way of discussing politics. So unless the social media platforms are going to be hiring people to sit there and monitor and observe these networks on an almost consistent basis it’s going to be very, very hard to pick up.”
Another challenge is the “gray area” posts being spread by some Republican officials on mainstream platforms, Maralet said.
She characterized these as part of a “call and response” type of relationship in which a post from a Republican official on Twitter or Facebook may not explicitly call for violence, but leads to a more direct call from users on fringe sites.
Beyond incendiary posts about the FBI search, advocacy groups are also raising concerns about how social media platforms are handling other forms of hate speech, including a rise in anti-LGBTQ posts identified after the passage of Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay or Trans” bill.
A report released by the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) and the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) earlier this month found that just 10 Twitter accounts drove 66 percent of impressions for the 500 most viewed anti-LGBTQ tweets using “groomer” as a slur between January and July.
Among them were the accounts of Reps. Greene and Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), who are both seeking reelection in November.
The posts seemingly violate Twitter’s policy. A Twitter spokesperson confirmed that use of the term “groomer” is prohibited under the hateful conduct policy when used as a descriptor in context of discussion of gender identity.
“We agree that we can and must do better. Our mission and our responsibility is to proactively enforce all of our policies, and to do so as quickly as possible. We continue to invest in our automated tools and teams of specialist reviewers, to identify and address gaps in our enforcement,” the spokesperson said in a statement.
Through Meta’s Ad Library, researchers found 59 paid ads served to Facebook and Instagram users that shared a dangerous narrative that the LGBTQ community and allies are “grooming” children, according to the report.
“Are social media companies prepared for the impact of this dangerous rhetoric in the wake of the 2022 elections? As we approach 2022 midterm elections, are social media companies prepared to enforce their policies and prevent some of the real life consequences we’ve seen in association with this language being used in previous elections,” Justin Unga, director of strategic initiatives at HRC, said.
A spokesperson for Meta said, “We reviewed the ads flagged in the report and have taken action on any content that violates our policies.”
To mitigate the issues, HRC officials said the platforms need to do a better job at enforcing the policies they already have in place.
“This has real world consequences. It has political consequences. But we’re really worried about the actual danger they’re putting people in,” Jay Brown, senior vice president of programs at HRC, said.
“These platforms need to do better enforcing their own policies,” he added. | https://www.news10.com/hill-politics/midterm-elections-to-put-misinformation-policies-to-the-test/ | 2022-08-21T19:38:54Z | https://www.news10.com/hill-politics/midterm-elections-to-put-misinformation-policies-to-the-test/ | false | 21 |

This is in response to Nancy Peters' letter to the editor that ran in The News-Review on Aug. 12: “The democrats have stepped over the line now." Really? As a Democrat, I am enjoying justice being served.
No one is above the law, and having been lied to for six years now, I am happy that something is being done.
We are either a nation of laws or we are not.
The Tea Party talking points of “spending money we don’t have," is a worn out trope. Money for education, money for a clean environment, money for social services — such as the elderly, the vets, on and on — soft money that is easily taken from the people.
But, plenty of money for war. But, sure, complain about that.
The Internal Revenue Service hiring more agents. I say fantastic. Uber rich, $400,000 a year, people who have been getting away with hiding their money, shell companies and accounting gymnastics; with not enough government workers to catch them. Now maybe they will pay their fair share of taxes. I do, I am sure you do. Everyone I know does.
I am not worried about the IRS. Stop trying to scare people with that kind of rhetoric.
Keep it Clean. Please avoid obscene, vulgar, lewd,
racist or sexually-oriented language. PLEASE TURN OFF YOUR CAPS LOCK. Don't Threaten. Threats of harming another
person will not be tolerated. Be Truthful. Don't knowingly lie about anyone
or anything. Be Nice. No racism, sexism or any sort of -ism

Canada’s under-20 men’s hockey team got to know adversity intimately over the past year-and-a-half.
The trials and tribulations paid off Saturday night as the team won gold at the world junior hockey championship in Edmonton.
After going up 2-0 midway through the second period, the group saw Finland roar back to tie the game 2-2 in the third and force overtime where a highlight-reel save by captain Mason McTavish turned into a championship-winning goal by Kent Johnson at the other end of the ice.
“It’s almost a year-and-a-half since our first training camp so for all of that hard work to have kind of paid off, it’s just so special,” McTavish said, gold medal draped around his neck.
The team initially came together in the summer of 2021, with the original tournament set to be played in Edmonton and Red Deer, Alta., that December.
Rising COVID-19 cases among players and officials caused the forfeiture of games and the event was halted after just four days.
The International Ice Hockey Federation promised to replay the tournament, but the only available time was in August — a period where young hockey players are often gearing up for training camps.
In the meantime, Canadian hockey came under fire as sexual assault allegations emerged against players of two former world junior teams. Hockey Canada faced intense scrutiny for how it handled the allegations, with the federal government freezing the organization’s funding and big-name sponsors pulling their support.
Several players opted not to take part in the summer tournament, creating big turnover on the Canadian squad, but the group persevered, said head coach Dave Cameron.
“This is a tough enough tournament to win when it’s a normal tournament at Christmas time,” he said. “And for this group to come in here under the cloud that they came in under, with what was going on with Hockey Canada, and the turnover, we had seven or eight guys that didn’t come.
“Just the commitment. … This group just stuck with it. That kind of was a theme.”
Canada was undefeated across the tournament, winning all seven games it played. The team trailed just once, falling behind 1-0 in a preliminary game to Czechia, the country commonly known as the Czech Republic, before eventually recording a 5-1 victory.
McTavish — the tournament’s most valuable player — led with 17 points (eight goals, nine assists), tying Wayne Gretzky and Eric Lindros for the second-most points ever scored by a Canadian player at the world juniors.
“They’re obviously in the Hall of Fame and to even have a quarter of their career, what they had and the success they had would be a success for me,” McTavish said. “I feel so honoured. I feel like I don’t belong there.”
An 18-year-old Anaheim Ducks’ prospect, McTavish has had a busy year. He suited up in nine games for the NHL team before returning to the Ontario Hockey League and ultimately helping the Hamilton Bulldogs to an Ontario Hockey League championship and berth in the Memorial Cup where they finished second. In-between, he pulled on the Maple Leaf for Canada at the Beijing Olympics.
Winning world juniors gold, though, is a dream come true, he said.
“I think any championship you win is so special,” he said. “Here, it’s an unbelievable feeling. Any time you get a chance to win anything, it’s one of the best feelings in the world and it’s so addicting. So hopefully I’m able to do it again.”
McTavish is one of 11 players on the Canadian squad eligible to play again when the 2023 tournament takes place in Moncton and Halifax.
Defenceman Olen Zellweger believes the group has a lot to build on moving forward.
“I think coming to this tournament, the experience and what you learn is invaluable,” said Zellweger, who had 11 points (two goals, nine assists) in the tournament.
“So coming back, I have a better understanding of how hard it is to win, how committed you need to be, how tight as a group you need to be to come out on top.”
While the 2022 world juniors was an odd affair — held during the hot summer without the packed crowds generally seen at the December events — the group has learned that the tournament comes with a lot of close games and a lot of expectations, Cameron said.
Having lived through that will serve the young players well, the coach added.
“Certainly they can draw on the experience that they had here and the pressure,” he said. “So when they do go to that tournament, there should be no surprises about what to expect.”

Nothing aims to improve the Phone (1)'s weakest part with the newest Nothing OS 1.1.3
Nothing’s first smartphone the Phone (1) has garnered a positive reception. In our review of the device, we praised the device for its innovative design, long battery life, and good display with accurate color reproduction. However, we noticed that the phone drops the ball hard in low-light camera performance with images taken in darker and high-contrast scenes suffering from blur and a lack of brightness. Nothing has now started pushing the Nothing OS 1.1.3 to phones, hoping to resolve a bunch of these camera issues. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2706890885794/apple-ipad-10-specs-leak-reveals-usb-c-port-presence-a14-bionic-chip-and-m2-ipad-pro-announcement-date | 2022-08-21T19:57:35Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2706890885794/apple-ipad-10-specs-leak-reveals-usb-c-port-presence-a14-bionic-chip-and-m2-ipad-pro-announcement-date | false | 1 |

‘House of the Dragon’ featurette spotlights two new houses in the ‘Game of Thrones’ prequel
On the eve of House of the Dragon’s world premiere, HBO gives fans one last tease with a new featurette, The Noble Houses. While dragons may be the scene stealers of Game of Thrones, HOTD is more about the political turmoil surrounding the civil war at the heart of the prequel, “Dance of the Dragons.” The featurette sees GOT author George R.R. Martin explain the importance of the Valeryons and the Hightowers. As two of the principal families in the prequel, and in fine GOT tradition, both Houses are lobbying for power and control of the Seven Kingdoms during the reign of King Viserys Targaryen.

Now, more than 10 years since its debut on the network, House of the Dragon is taking flight as a prequel series set 200 years before the events of the original. It will feature not three, not five, not ten, but a whopping seventeen dragons at the height of the Targaryen rule over the Seven Kingdoms, according to HOTD‘s co-showrunner, Ryan Condal.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — When Minneapolis teachers settled a 14-day strike in March, they celebrated a groundbreaking provision in their new contract that was meant to shield teachers of color from seniority-based layoffs and help ensure that students from racial minorities have teachers who look like them.
Months later, conservative media outlets have erupted with denunciations of the policy as racist and unconstitutional discrimination against white educators. One legal group is looking to recruit teachers and taxpayers willing to sue to throw out the language. The teachers union paints the dispute as a ginned-up controversy when there’s no imminent danger of anyone losing their job. Meanwhile, the feud is unfolding just months ahead of arguments in a pair of U.S. Supreme Court cases that could reshape affirmative action.
“The same people who want to take down teachers unions and blame seniority are now defending it for white people,” said Greta Callahan, president of the teachers unit at the Minneapolis Federation of Teachers. “This is all made up by the right wing now. And we could not be more proud of this language.”
Recent coverage in conservative platforms such as the local news website Alpha News, Fox News nationally and the Daily Mail internationally sparked criticisms from prominent figures, including Donald Trump Jr. and former Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who curbed the power of public employee unions in his state. Walker on Twitter called it “another example of why government unions should be eliminated.”
The contract language doesn’t specifically say that white teachers would be laid off ahead of teachers of color, though critics say that’s what the effect would be. The contract exempts “teachers who are members of populations underrepresented among licensed teachers in the District,” as well as alumni of historically Black and Hispanic colleges, and of tribal colleges. Around 60% of the district’s teachers are white, while more than 60% of the students are from racial minorities.
Advocates say students from racial minorities perform better when their educators include teachers and support staff of color, and that it’s especially critical in a district that suffers from stubborn achievement gaps. Callahan said her union fought for years to get the protection added to their contract, and that she knows of two other Minnesota districts with similar provisions.
Minneapolis is one of many districts across the U.S. struggling with declining teacher headcounts and tight budgets. But Callahan disputed that the provision threatens anyone’s job, noting that Minneapolis has nearly 300 unfilled positions as teachers and students prepare to go back to school, and the language won’t take effect until the 2023 academic year.
Callahan called it “just one teensy, tiny step towards equity” that doesn’t begin to make up for many teachers of color quitting the district in recent years because they felt underpaid and disrespected.
To Lindsey West, a fifth grade teacher at Clara Barton Community School who identifies as Black and Indigenous, the seniority language is one piece of a bigger mission of improving education.
West said she feels strongly that students of color benefit from having teachers that look like them, but said she’s also seen that diversity can be empowering for white students. She said she’s sometimes been the first educator of color that Black or white students have had.
“We want to have kids from all demographics having experiences with people of different backgrounds and different cultures, and becoming aware that our shared humanity is what’s important, and not the things that divide us,” West said.
Minneapolis Public Schools interim Superintendent Rochelle Cox declined a request for an interview.
“The object of this provision is clearly to lay off white teachers first, regardless of merit, based on the color of their skin, and that is a big problem under the Constitution and the 14th Amendment,” said James Dickey, senior trial counsel at the Upper Midwest Law Center, a conservative nonprofit that often takes on public employee unions. It has brought litigation over such issues as COVID-19 mask mandates and displays of Black Lives Matter posters.
Dickey said his group is considering suing and has had a flood of Minneapolis taxpayers — and some teachers — contact them to say they are “offended that my tax dollars could go to fund this kind of racist agenda.”
He argued that a 1986 U.S. Supreme Court decision known as the Wygant case bars such provisions and would serve as a precedent in Minnesota.
The Wygant case involved a teachers contract in Jackson, Michigan, which took a different approach from the Minneapolis agreement. It effectively said Jackson could not make cuts that led to an overall reduction in the percentage of minority personnel employed in the district. White teachers sued after being laid off while some teachers of color with less seniority kept their jobs. A divided Supreme Court held that the layoffs violated the equal protection clause of the U.S. Constitution.
Andrew Crook, spokesman for the American Federation of Teachers, said he didn’t know of anything similar to the Minneapolis wording in contracts in other states, though he said some contracts provide exceptions from straight seniority rules for teachers in hard-to-fill specialties such as math and special education.
Officials with other national public employee unions and professional associations either said they didn’t know of anything similar in their fields or did not respond to requests for comment.
Two affirmative action cases set for oral arguments before the Supreme Court in October, involving Harvard University and the University of North Carolina, could have a bearing on the Minneapolis dispute. The cases are challenges to the consideration of race in college admission decisions.
Affirmative action has been reviewed by the high court several times over the past 40 years and has generally been upheld, but with limits. With three new conservative justices on the court since its last review, however, the practice may be facing its greatest threat yet.
Joseph Daly, a professor emeritus at the Mitchell Hamline School of Law who arbitrates disputes across the country, including many teacher cases over the years, said the Minneapolis language appears designed to survive a court challenge.
“The U.S. Supreme Court in the past has OK’d affirmative action when there were very valid objectives to be achieved in ultimately seeking equality for all human beings,” Daly said. “Now the question of today is: Will this concept be upheld by the courts in light of the more conservative stance on the Supreme Court? I don’t have an answer on that.” | https://www.fourstateshomepage.com/news/national/minneapolis-teacher-contract-race-language-ignites-firestorm/ | 2022-08-21T19:59:18Z | https://www.fourstateshomepage.com/news/national/minneapolis-teacher-contract-race-language-ignites-firestorm/ | true | 28 |
MOSCOW (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin accused the United States of trying to encourage extended hostilities in Ukraine as part of what he described Tuesday as Washington’s alleged efforts to maintain its global hegemony.
Addressing a security conference attended by military officials from Africa,, Asia and Latin America, Putin reaffirmed his long-held claim that he sent troops into Ukraine in response to Washington turning the country into an “anti-Russia” bulwark.
“They need conflicts to retain their hegemony,” Putin charged. “That’s why they have turned the Ukrainian people into cannon fodder. The situation in Ukraine shows that the United States is trying to drag the conflict out, and it acts in exactly the same way trying to fuel conflicts in Asia, Africa and Latin America.”
The speech represented the latest attempt by the Russian leader to rally support amid bruising Western sanctions that targeted the Russian economy and finance along with its government structures, top officials and businesses for Moscow’s action in Ukraine.
Putin also drew parallels between the U.S. backing Ukraine and a recent visit to Taiwan by U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, charging that both were part of an alleged American attempt to foment global instability.
“The American adventure in Taiwan wasn’t just a trip by an irresponsible politician. It was part of a deliberate and conscious U.S. strategy intended to destabilize the situation and create chaos in the region and the entire world, a blatant demonstration of disrespect for another country’ sovereignty and its own international obligations,” Putin said.
The Russian leader claimed that “Western globalist elites” were trying “to shift the blame for their own failures to Russia and China,” adding that “no matter how hard the beneficiaries of the current globalist model try to cling to it, it’s doomed.”
”The era of the unipolar world order is nearing its end,” he added.
Speaking at the same conference, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu charged that along with supplies of weapons to Ukraine, Western allies also have provided detailed intelligence information and deployed instructors to help the Ukrainian military operate the weapons systems.
“Western intelligence agencies not only have provided target coordinates for launching strikes, but Western specialists also have overseen the input of those data into weapons systems,” Shoigu said.
He dismissed allegations that Russia could potentially use nuclear or chemical weapons in the conflict as an “absolute lie.”
“From the military viewpoint, there is no need for using nuclear weapons in Ukraine to achieve the stated goals,” Shoigu said. “The main mission of the Russian nuclear forces is providing a deterrent against a nuclear attack.”
Shoigu added that the claims of a possible chemical attack by Russia were equally “absurd,” saying that Moscow fully liquidated its chemical weapons stockpiles in compliance with an international treaty banning chemical weapons. | https://www.yourerie.com/news/international/putin-blasts-us-hegemony-predicts-end-to-unipolar-world/ | 2022-08-21T19:59:49Z | https://www.yourerie.com/news/international/putin-blasts-us-hegemony-predicts-end-to-unipolar-world/ | true | 51 |
CLEVELAND (AP) — The AL Central-leading Cleveland Guardians and Chicago White Sox had their Sunday game postponed due to unplayable field conditions caused by early morning rain. No precipitation fell for more than three hours before the game was called following a delay of 2 hours, 56 minutes. Play never began as the groundskeepers kept the tarp on the infield from Saturday night. The game has been rescheduled for Sept. 15, a mutual off-day, at Progressive Field. It was the Guardians’ 12th postponement this season, 10 of them at home. Cleveland has played an MLB-high 10 doubleheaders. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2706941852705/alcantara-dominant-shuts-down-padres-in-marlins-3-0-win | 2022-08-21T20:06:45Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2706941852705/alcantara-dominant-shuts-down-padres-in-marlins-3-0-win | false | null |

"Hold Me Closer," a new duet from music legend Sir Elton John and pop star Britney Spears, is slated for release this week.
John confirmed on his Instagram page that the single will be released Aug. 26. It’s a new version of John’s 1971 hit "Tiny Dancer" and his second duet in recent months. Last year, John released a hit duet Dua Lipa called "Cold, Cold Heart," a mashup of his two songs "Rocketman" and "Sacrifice."
The duet will be Spears’ first new music release since she was freed from a 14-year conservatorship in November 2021. Spears was a 26-year-old new mother at the height of her career when her father established the conservatorship, at first on a temporary basis, in February 2008 after a series of public mental health struggles.
Spears had no control over her finances or personal affairs until the conservatorship ended a few weeks before her 40th birthday. In June, she married longtime partner Sam Asghari in a fairytale wedding that included a white horse-drawn carriage covered in pink roses.
