/EIN News/ -- Luton, Bedfordshire, United Kingdom, Aug. 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Exactitude Consultancy, the market research and consulting wing of Ameliorate Digital Consultancy Private Limited has completed and published the final copy of the detailed research report on the Oil & Gas Pumps Market.
The market for oil and gas pumps is anticipated to grow from an estimated USD 6.6 billion in 2020 to USD 10.80 billion in 2028, at a CAGR of 6.4%.
The global economy depends heavily on the oil and gas sector. In addition to producing the bulk of the world's main energy, the oil and gas sector also contributes significantly as a provider of raw materials for chemical products such as medicines, cleaners, fertilisers, insecticides, and plastics. Pumps are crucial for the oil and gas sector's dependable and stable functioning. Pumping that is efficient lowers operating expenses and boosts revenue. Pumps play a crucial role in the oil and gas sector. In a variety of settings, including inside oil drilling rigs and refineries, they are used to remove oil. They are employed for steam stripping, chemical transfers, gasoline transfers, and injection activities. Pumps made expressly for the oil and gas industry are essential to its operation.
From oil and gas exploration to refining, pumps are needed at every stage of the oil and gas business. Each stage uses a different type of pump. The failure of traditional pumping systems has led to a rise in the use of smart pumping. The use of sensors to monitor and manage pump performance has improved pump performance. Modern pumping systems integrate burgeoning IOT technology. Both the capital and operating expenses of pumping have decreased thanks to new pumping technologies including multi-phase pumping and separation.

Our Report Scope
Growth Factors
The need for pumps has increased for numerous uses in the oil and gas industry as a result of the ongoing rise in oil demand brought on by the growing population and industrialisation. Centrifugal pumps predominate on the market, while dynamic pumps are frequently utilised in the oil and gas industry. The need for centrifugal pumps is expected to rise in the coming years as refining capacity rises. These pumps are widely utilised in hydrocarbon processing, refineries, water injection, and pipeline services. Furthermore, it is anticipated that oil production would rise over the projection period as a result of technology advancements that have made deep-water and ultra-deep water drilling practical and cost-effective. In consequence, it's anticipated that this will soon present a chance for Oil & Gas Pumps market expansion.
Business Opportunities
GAIL India announced investments totaling USD 4.4 billion in pipeline construction and USD 1.6 billion in city gas distribution (CGD) networks in August 2019. In 2019, Eni intended to increase output from the southern Iraqi Zubair field from 195,000 barrels per day to a plateau of 700,000 barrels per day in 7 years. Two phases of the project are being completed: the Rehabilitation Phase (RP) and the Enhanced Re-Development Phase (EP). The EP phase is anticipated to last 6 years, whereas the initial RP phase is anticipated to last 2 years. The project's scope includes designing, supplying, and commissioning a new water injection project as well as five degassing stations and the renovation of existing degassing stations and wells. It will also transport up to 100 million cubic feet of gas per day from a depot at the Zubair field to the FAO depot via an 18-inch carbon steel gas pipeline. This project will probably cost around USD 18 billion. The companies in the market for oil & gas pumps are set to benefit greatly from such advances in midstream infrastructure.
Regional Scope Oil & Gas Pumps Market
North America is anticipated to dominate the oil & gas pumps market in terms of geography during the forecast period since nations like the US and Canada are expected to experience significant expansion in unconventional resources. Due to development of affordable shale gas exploration and extraction technology and the spike in demand from the onshore and offshore segments, notably in the Gulf of Mexico, the impact on the market for oil and gas pumps throughout the time appears to be relatively positive.
The market for oil and gas pumps is anticipated to increase as a result of proposed new pipelines in Europe and North America as well as the renovation and upgrade of ageing oil and gas pipelines. The use of pumps in the mid-stream sector is anticipated to increase as a result of new proposed pipelines in the Asia-Pacific, Middle East, and Africa. Pump usage in the downstream market is anticipated to rise as petroleum refining activities develop in India, China, and the United States. The market for oil and gasoline pumps may be stimulated by the modernization and improvement of infrastructure in OPEC nations.

The 2 Biggest Reasons Getting a Daily Paycheck Is a Bad Idea
When you have an urgent need for cash and you're running low on funds, payday can feel like forever away. You might wonder (rightly) if it makes sense to let someone else sit on money you've already earned, especially if you happen to need it today. This is where the daily paycheck comes in. Before you tap an app to drop today's wages into your bank account, consider the potential disadvantages of same-day pay.
1. Daily pay can be costly
Many daily pay platforms charge a fee when you access your money before payday. To the extent possible, try to avoid spending money to get your pay. If you are running out of cash between paydays, those extra few dollars are better off in your pocket, not the app's. A couple of dollars may not seem like much, but fees add up.
Depending on how often you access daily pay and how much the fee is, your total cost could even end up being greater than it would have been if you had overdrawn your account or paid a late fee.
Daily pay is advertised as an alternative to payday loans, which can be so costly that they easily trap the borrower in a cycle of debt that's hard to break. Yes, even $40 in fees is cheaper than most payday loans. But multiple apps and services already exist that let you get a free cash advance, in many cases with no credit check.
2. Daily pay can make it harder to manage big expenses
Perhaps the biggest risk of daily pay is the possibility that you might overspend and not reserve enough to cover big-ticket items that come at intervals, like rent and utility bills. Sure, it's nice to get your pay every day without having to wait for it, but even a disciplined person can struggle to budget daily pay.
Be realistic when you look at your spending and saving habits. Also, consider what you might do if you have to take any unexpected unpaid days off after you've already accessed and spent the money you earned earlier in the pay period.
If it's not your style to save money, daily pay might not help you create financial security.
Do this instead
- Check out cash advance apps. MoneyLion is free, Dave costs $1 per month. They both offer free cash advances, but you have to be all set up first. Before you can get a cash advance, you'll need to verify your identity, link your bank account, and download the app. Once you're ready, a free cash advance takes 12 to 48 hours.
- Get to know your budget. If you frequently run short on cash, you might need to get a better understanding of your income and expenses. Choose a free budgeting app and track all of your income and spending for a while. This will help you develop the ability to foresee your financial needs, and you might even find some areas where you can lower your spending.
- Start saving money. Whether you've never had money in a savings account or you had to deplete it because of unexpected expenses, needing same-day pay means that you don't have enough in reserves -- even in an amount as small as one day's pay -- to handle a financial emergency. Start saving now, even if it's just $10 or $20 each payday or month. Open a high-yield savings account online. Choose an account with no monthly maintenance fee. A good first goal is $1,000, but then strive to increase your balance to an amount that will pay all of your expenses for three months without any additional income.
Daily pay can't relieve a paycheck-to-paycheck lifestyle
If you're living paycheck to paycheck, the solution isn't to get your pay faster. Rather, it's to find a way to create a financial buffer. You don't need daily pay for financial security. You can create that buffer yourself.
If you have the option, continue to get your pay on a biweekly or weekly schedule. Most people find it easier to pay big bills when their money comes in big chunks. For instance, some people who get paid every two weeks put one paycheck toward rent and the next paycheck toward everything else.
Having enough money on hand to cover small and moderate expenses will lower your stress level as well as your overall costs.

A new chapter of The Park Record lies with the Park City Library
The public will be able to access 40 years of the newspaper’s bound copies
The Park City Library is now the physical home of the last 40 years of The Park Record.
The newspaper’s staff on Wednesday moved nearly 80 bound volumes containing original print copies from 1977 to 2017 out of its offices at 1670 Bonanza Drive to the library, 1255 Park Ave.
Library Director Adriane Juarez is more than honored.
“It’s been a fairly recent occurrence that Publisher Andy Bernhard approached the Park City Library about having the bound print copies of The Park Record housed here,” she said. “We are absolutely thrilled to be discussing this option to have these available here at the library. We were able to create some storage space where those will be kept safely.”
The public will be able to access the pages once the volumes are put in order and recorded in the library’s inventory, Juarez said.
“The Park City Library has a Park City History room where we house a lot of materials that reflect on the past of our community — mining, skiing and Olympic history — and The Park Record has covered all of those things,” she said. “We are having a contractor create a special wooden stand where these volumes can rest and be looked at. The public will be able to ask to see any edition of the bound print copy. We do need to remember that these are historic items, so we will have them accessed as gently as possible.”
In addition, the library plans to display the volumes on a rotating basis to show the public that the pages are accessible upon request.
“We hope people will feel free to ask to see the papers,” Juarez said. “There is nothing like paging through the physical copy of the paper to get a sense of what happened in Park City over the years.”
Housing The Park Record copies fits with the Park City Library’s mission to promote literacy, and preserve and document history, according to Juarez.
“It means so much to us to have this collection,” she said.
The bound copies complement The Park Record’s digital archives that reach back to 1880, the year the newspaper first rolled off the presses, Juarez said.
Digitizing the microfilm of The Park Record was made possible through an ad-hoc committee of the Park City Historical Society called the Newspaper Preservation Committee, which was formed in 2014 by historian Sally Elliott.
The committee, whose goal was converting the entirety of The Park Record archive into a digital format, recruited numerous partners in the effort, including the Park City Library, the Summit County Library, the University of Utah’s Marriott Library, which hosts the digital archive through the Utah Digital Newspapers organization, and The Park Record.
Andy Bernhard, The Park Record’s publisher, is grateful to the Park City Library for housing the newspaper’s bound volumes.
“What a fabulous resource,” he said. “These books, coupled with the digitized editions found at Utah Digital Newspapers — dating back to our first edition in 1880 — gives a truly exceptional perspective of our history. Many thanks to Adriane and the staff at the library for embracing this project. ”
Although the library will be considered the owners of the bound volumes, the copyright will remain with The Park Record, according to Bernhard.
A new chapter of The Park Record lies with the Park City Library
The Park City Library is now the custodian of 40 years worth of The Park Record newspapers.

While Activision has already acknowledged the existence of Call of Duty: Warzone 2 (or also known as Warzone 2.0), the platforms where it’ll be playable has been kept under wraps…at least, until today, as the Call of Duty: Warzone 2 ESRB rating has surfaced, and basically confirms it is coming to last-gen (PS4, Xbox One) platforms too!
Here’s a snapshot of the (Entertainment Software & Ratings Board) ESRB rating for Warzone 2.0 alongside the summary:
Rating Summary
This is a first-person shooter, set in the Call of Duty universe, in which players engage in a variety of multiplayer combat events (e.g., battle royale, plunder-style skirmishes/DMZ). Players use machine guns, shotguns, sniper rifles, and explosives to kill enemy soldiers in frenetic combat. Battles are highlighted by realistic gunfire, screams of pain, blood-splatter effects, and explosions. A handful of weapons/attacks result in decapitation/dismemberment. Finishing moves sometimes depict dramatic stabbings and headshots, with close-up blood and gore effects. The game contains badges/banners that depict illustrations of marijuana leaves and/or characters smoking joints. The words “f**k” and “sh*t” appear in the game.
As you can plainly see, last-gen platforms are listed on the left-hand side. Bear in mind, nothing official has been announced by Activision regarding this, though we should know the exact details soon, as the Call of Duty Next event is set for September 15 where Activision has promised that we’ll see a multiplayer blowout for Modern Warfare 2, as well as the future of Warzone be revealed.
While this might be good news to many, those who are annoyed at Warzone’s technical shortcomings might be a bit worried that the game being available on last-gen will hinder gamers getting the best version devs can push out (given they have to develop for the least common denominator and whatnot). Here’s to hoping that’s not the case. If true, players shouldn’t be surprised given the player base for both PS4 and Xbox One, that’s a lot of microtransaction and Battle Passes Activision would be giving up if they remained exclusively on next-gen (PS5, Xbox Series X|S) hardware.
In regards to Warzone we have now, the last season of content for that game (alongside COD Vanguard) is set to be released this week with “Last Stand.” Read up about that here. | https://newslanes.com/2022/08/22/call-of-duty-warzone-2-esrb-rating-confirms-its-coming-to-last-gen-references-marijuana-use-in-game/ | 2022-08-22T13:13:58Z | https://newslanes.com/2022/08/22/call-of-duty-warzone-2-esrb-rating-confirms-its-coming-to-last-gen-references-marijuana-use-in-game/ | false | 1 |

Company adds former Salesforce Executive, John Stewart, to its Board
Autosled, the modern automotive digital logistics marketplace, announced that it has completed its Series A funding round and established its Board of Directors. The announcement comes on the heels of the news that former Tesla executive, Leon Keshishian, has joined the company as Chief Executive Officer.
Autosled has confirmed the closing of a $5 million Series A round as the company continues its mission to revolutionize the automotive transport marketplace. Leading the round was Lyndon Rive, who co-founded Solarcity (now Tesla Energy) in 2006 along with his brother Pete and cousin, Elon Musk. Lyndon personally witnessed the widespread logistical issues within Automotive with the launch of the Tesla Model 3. The opportunity to develop a unique digital platform that tackles these challenges, along with his prior dealings with Autosled's CEO, Leon Keshishian, fueled his confidence in the Autosled team as they streamline the vehicle moving process for both shippers and transporters.
Joining Rive in the Series A investment was Andrew Leto, founder of freight procurement marketplace Emerge. Leto invested through Arcturus Venture, his single family investment office that specializes in supporting tech enabled startups within the transportation and logistics sectors. Following Rive and Leto in this round was Dave Baggett, current CEO of Inky Technology and former COO and co-founder of ITA software, an airfare pricing engine platform acquired by Google in 2010 (now Google Travel). A group of individuals from the Georgetown Angel Investor Network, represented by Marc Suhlam, also participated in the round. This funding brings Autosled's total capital raised to more than $7 million.
"When Lee first described Autosled's goals, I saw the opportunity," noted Lyndon Rive, co-founder of SolarCity. "After dealing with Tesla's own vehicle delivery pain points, I knew firsthand the market challenges that needed to be addressed. Dan and David's retail automotive knowledge, combined with Lee's operational execution, made the investment decision a no-brainer."
In addition to completing its Series A round, Autosled has appointed John Stewart to the board of directors. Stewart founded MapAnything in 2006, a data mapping tool for location-based services that was acquired by Salesforce in 2019. His knowledge of location intelligence plays a vital role in Autosled's future product roadmap as the company continues to optimize its platform. Stewart has continued to invest and serve as a board advisor for various start-ups, such as Palmetto and Emerge. Palmetto, a green energy service and tech company, has been a driving force behind solar energy distribution innovation. Emerge, one of the fastest growing start-ups in the United States, uses AI technology to reinvent and enhance the comprehensive freight procurement process. Stewart brings his experience in the application of next generation logistical systems to Autosled's expanding network of nationwide auto haulers and dispatchers.
"Ushering in transparency through the use of technology is the key to reinventing transporter logistics," said Andrew Leto, founder of Emerge. "The chance to bring these improvements to the automotive sector with Autosled was a natural extension to my other ventures. Lee and the team have the potential to build an incredibly impactful solution. We are already receiving extremely positive feedback from both dealerships and transporters who are utilizing the Autosled platform."

Dennis Rodman says he’s going to Russia to seek release of Brittney Griner
(NBC) - Former NBA player Dennis Rodman said Saturday that he plans to visit Russia to seek the release of Brittney Griner, the WNBA star who was sentenced to nine years in prison on drug charges earlier this month.
“I got permission to go to Russia to help that girl,” Rodman told NBC News at a restaurant in D.C. “I’m trying to go this week.”
He is more likely to hurt than help, said a senior Biden administration official.
“It’s public information that the administration has made a significant offer to the Russians and anything other than negotiating further through the established channel is likely to complicate and hinder release efforts,” the official said.
If Rodman goes to Russia, it won’t be the first time he has conducted informal diplomacy with an international leader who has strained relations with the U.S.
Rodman has cultivated a relationship with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un over the past decade, making multiple visits to the hermit kingdom. He called Russian President Vladimir Putin “cool” after a 2014 trip to Moscow. In 2018, he showed up on the sidelines of former President Donald Trump’s meeting with Kim in Singapore. And he has credited himself with helping to secure the release of American Kenneth Bae from North Korea.
The U.S. has imposed stiff sanctions on Russia in response to its invasion of Ukraine and is aiding Ukraine’s forces. Griner’s imprisonment has created an additional source of tension between the two countries — and a potential avenue for diplomacy.
Bill Richardson, a former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations who has been involved in past hostage negotiations, told The Associated Press this month that he was optimistic about the chances for a prisoner swap that would bring Griner and another American, Paul Whelan, back to the U.S.
The U.S. offer to Russia involved a swap of Griner and Whelan for imprisoned Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout.
Rodman, who was in Washington for a sneaker convention, does not need special permission from the U.S. to enter Russia — just a visa from Moscow. But the State Department has issued a travel advisory that strongly discourages American citizens from visiting the country.
“Do not travel to Russia,” the State Department advises, citing a litany of reasons, including the “unprovoked and unjustified invasion of Ukraine,” potential “harassment against U.S. citizens by Russian government security officials” and the possibility of “wrongful detention.”
Though he has a much more established relationship with Kim, Rodman expressed confidence in his understanding of Russia’s president.
“I know Putin too well,” he said.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aton Resources Inc. (AAN: TSX-V) (“Aton” or the “Company") is pleased to update investors on the latest assay results from the Phase 2 diamond drilling programme at its advanced Rodruin gold exploration project, located in the Company’s 100% owned Abu Marawat Concession (“Abu Marawat” or the “Concession”), in the Eastern Desert of Egypt.
Highlights:
- Results are now available from a further 11 drill holes, ROD-080 to ROD-090. Holes ROD-080 to ROD-085 were drilled in the Aladdin’s Hill area with 2 holes twinning RC percussion holes from the 2018 RC drilling programme. Holes ROD-086 to ROD-090 were drilled to test oxide resources at the Central Buttress Zone;
- Holes ROD-082 and ROD-084 both intersected wide zones of mineralisation from surface, associated with phyllic altered sediments, at Aladdin’s Hill returning 2.99 g/t Au and 5.3 g/t Ag over a 53.4m interval (hole ROD-082), and 2.33 g/t Au and 6.6 g/t Ag over a 53.6m interval (hole ROD-084);
- Correlation of the results from the 2 twin holes, ROD-082 and ROD-083, with the original RC holes was good;
- 4 holes were drilled from a single pad at the eastern edge of the CBZ, and all returned wide intersections of mineralisation, including 1.07 g/t Au and 14.5 g/t Ag over 42.25m from surface (ROD-088);
- 2 of the drill holes intersected visible gold in phyllic altered oxidised sediments, ROD-083 and ROD-087, further indicating the potential for additional discrete zones of high grade, coarse gold bearing mineralisation within the general Rodruin area.
“This latest tranche of drill results continues to show the potential of the Rodruin deposit, as we work towards establishing the maiden mineral resource estimate” said Tonno Vahk, Interim CEO. “Aton’s focus is now very much on moving towards the new mineral resource estimates at both Rodruin and Hamama West, with the diamond drilling continuing at Rodruin, and the RC resource infill programme virtually complete at Hamama. We continue to work hand in hand with our partners at the Egyptian Mineral Resources Authority towards the issuance of the long term mining licence covering both deposit areas, which will give the Company the flexibility to initially mine the oxide resources before moving on to the longer term big prize of developing the deep sulphide resources. We are also continuing to hold fruitful discussions with a number of parties as we look to move this long term strategy forwards, including drilling some of our other exciting regional exploration prospects, and the ongoing identification of excellent grades and thicknesses of mineralisation at surface at Rodruin is just another important step along this road towards the full development of the exploration potential of the Abu Marawat Concession.”
Rodruin diamond drilling programme
The Rodruin prospect was discovered in December 2017 by Aton geologists (see news release dated December 14, 2017), and is located approximately 18km east of the Company’s Hamama West mineral deposit (Figure 1). During 2018, Aton constructed a c. 4.5km access road to the prospect, and undertook a highly successful 50 hole Phase 1 reverse circulation percussion (“RC”) drilling programme, which returned numerous mineralised intercepts and intersected gold mineralisation in virtually every hole (see news release dated January 29, 2019).
The ongoing Phase 2 diamond drilling programme at Rodruin commenced in late November 2021, and oxide zone results reported to date include 88.25m grading 1.74 g/t Au and 9.7 g/t Ag, from 25.75m (hole ROD-055, see news release dated March 1, 2022), and 129.5m grading 1.00 g/t Au and 8.8 g/t Ag, over the entire length of hole ROD-056 from its collar (see news release dated March 7, 2022). Recent drill testing of deeper sulphide mineralisation has returned intersections including 88.6m grading 5.76 g/t Au, 42.0 g/t Ag, 0.31% Cu and 2.40% Zn (hole ROD-071, see news release dated May 10, 2022), and 36.9m grading 7.04 g/t Au, 47.2 g/t Ag, 0.63% Cu and 7.18% Zn (ROD-075, see news release dated June 1, 2022).
Discussion of results
The current diamond drilling programme has been designed with the specific objective of delineating and establishing a maiden mineral resource estimate (“MRE”) at Rodruin. Holes ROD-080 and ROD-081 (Figure 2) were drilled to follow up on the previously reported high grade sulphide mineralisation discovered northeast of Aladdin’s Hill (see news releases dated May 10, 2022 and June 1, 2022). Holes ROD-082 to ROD-085 were all drilled to test outcropping surface mineralisation at the Aladdin’s Hill zone (Figure 2), with 2 of the holes, ROD-082 and ROD-083, designed as twin holes to test the results from the 2018 RC programme. Holes ROD-086 to ROD-089 were drilled from a single pad on the difficult to access eastern flank of the gossanous carbonate hosted mineralisation at the Central Buttress Zone (“CBZ”), with hole ROD-090 also designed to test this zone (Figure 3). Collar co-ordinates of all holes are provided in Table 1.
Table 1: Collar details of diamond drill holes ROD-080 to ROD-090
ROD-080 and ROD-081
Holes ROD-080 and ROD-081 were drilled on a westerly azimuth (Figure 2) to provide further information on the potential orientation of the high grade blind mineralisation previously intersected in holes ROD-071 and ROD-075 (see news releases dated May 10, 2022 and June 1, 2022).
Both holes intersected wide zones of mineralisation, with hole ROD-080 returning 0.83 g/t Au, 7.8 g/t Ag and 1.35% Zn over an interval of 35.85m from 137.65m downhole depth (see Table 2). Aton’s geologists are reviewing these results and the associated structural data from orientated core, and further follow-up drilling is planned in this area.
ROD-082 to ROD-085
ROD-082 to ROD-085 were drilled to test outcropping surface mineralisation at the Aladdin’s Hill zone (Figure 2), with 2 of the holes, ROD-082 and ROD-083, designed as twin holes to test the results from the 2018 RC programme.
The 2 holes ROD-082 and ROD-084 which tested the block of phyllic hosted mineralisation at Aladdin’s Hill both returned wide intersections from surface: 2.99 g/t Au and 5.3 g/t Ag over a 53.4m interval (hole ROD-082), and 2.33 g/t Au and 6.6 g/t Ag over a 53.6m interval (hole ROD-084), see Table 2. Hole ROD-084 intersected a 5m wide underground mining void, which was allocated zero grade, indicating the presence of significant high grade mineralisation at Aladdin’s Hill, which would have been the target of the ancient miners. Holes ROD-083 and ROD-085 also returned lower grade mineralised intersections, associated with gossanous carbonates, including 1.56 g/t Au and 4.2 g/t Ag over a 7.25m interval also from 10.75m (hole ROD-085).
Holes ROD-082 and ROD-083 were specifically designed to twin holes ROP-003 and ROP-011 from the 2018 RC programme at Rodruin (see news releases dated October 1, 2018 and November 12, 2018).
Hole ROD-082 returned a mineralised intercept of 35.5m @ 4.27 g/t Au, 6.8 g/t Ag, 0.20% Cu and 0.14% Zn from 4.5m downhole depth (Table 2), which correlates favourably with the previously reported mineralised intercept of 36m @ 5.38 g/t Au, 9.3 g/t Ag, 0.20% Cu and 0.19% Zn, from 5m (see Table 2 in news release dated October 1, 2018, as reported with a 30 g/t Au top cut). Differences in the gold grades between ROP-003 and ROD-082 are largely attributable to high grade, presumably nuggety coarse gold bearing samples in both ROP-003 and ROD-082. ROD-082 assayed 22.2 g/t Au between 10-11.05m (cf. ROP-003, 221.0 g/t Au between 9-10m), and 12.67 g/t Au over 4.5m from 24.7m (cf. ROP-003, 19.24 g/t Au over 3m from 22m, including a single assay of 94.3 g/t Au), adjacent to an old narrow mining void.
The surface intersection from ROD-083 (28.4m @ 0.61 g/t Au and 4.5 g/t Ag, Table 2) correlated very closely with that from hole ROP-011 (27m @ 0.58 g/t Au and 4.0 g/t Ag, previously reported as 11m @ 0.88 g/t Au and 4.9 g/t Ag, from 16m, see news release dated November 12, 2018).
Furthermore, visible gold was identified at 110m in hole ROD-083, in a mineralised zone grading 1.18 g/t Au over an interval of 8.30m, from 108.8m downhole depth, again associated with phyllic alteration. While the sample containing visible gold returned an assay of only 2.80 g/t Au, this zone indicates the potential for additional zones of high grade coarse gold bearing mineralisation associated with phyllic alteration.
The results from these newly reported diamond holes ROD-082 and ROD-083 very closely correlate with the grade distribution in holes ROP-003 and ROP-011, and tend to confirm the validity of the results from the RC programme.
Table 2: Mineralised intersections from diamond drill holes ROD-080 to ROD-090
ROD-086 to ROD-090
Holes ROD-086 to ROD-090 were drilled to test the eastern margin of the CBZ carbonate-hosted mineralisation (Figure 3).
All 4 holes drilled from the single pad (ROD-086 to ROD-089) intersected wide zones of mineralisation, returning intersections including 37.2m grading 0.77 g/t Au and 12.3 g/t Ag from surface (hole ROD-086, Table 2), 48.95m grading 0.81 g/t Au and 13.9 g/t Ag from 9.7m (hole ROD-087), 42.25m grading 1.07 g/t Au and 14.5 g/t Ag from surface (hole ROD-088), and 30.0m grading 1.06 g/t Au and 12.5 g/t Ag from 22.7m (hole ROD-089). These results continue to confirm the potential of the CBZ to host a substantial block of oxide Au-Ag mineralisation, starting from surface.
Hole ROD-087 also intersected a deeper zone of phyllic and carbonate altered meta-sediments which returned a mineralised interval grading of 2.43 g/t Au and 14.2 g/t Ag over 10.75m, from 86.3m depth (Table 2). Abundant visible gold was observed in the core at 87.8m and 88.3m, associated with narrow quartz and quartz-carbonate veinlets in heavily phyllic altered meta-sediments (Figure 4), again indicating the potential for localised high grade coarse gold bearing zones at Rodruin.
Hole ROD-090 was drilled entirely in sediments and failed to intersect significant mineralisation (Table 3), but did intersect a 3.4m wide void, possibly ancient mining workings, on the South Ridge Thrust structure. Gossanous meta-sediments above this void returned a single assay result of 0.65 g/t Au over a single metre.
Sample processing and analytical procedures
Drill core was logged by Aton geologists, and marked up for cutting and sampling at the Rodruin core farm. Samples were typically selected over nominal 1m intervals, but as determined by the logged lithologies. The core was half-cut by Aton staff at the onsite Rodruin sample preparation facility.
The split half-core samples were collected and bagged up in cloth bags, weighed and crushed to -4mm onsite, and split to a nominal c. 250-500g sample size. The coarse crushed reject samples are retained onsite at the Rodruin sample prep facility.
QAQC samples are inserted at a rate of approximately 1 certified reference material (or “standard” sample) every 30 samples, 1 blank sample every 15 samples, and 1 duplicate split sample every 15 samples.
The c. 250-500g dried, crushed and split samples were shipped to ALS Minerals sample preparation laboratory at Marsa Alam, Egypt where they were pulverised to a size fraction of better than 85% passing 75 microns. From this pulverised material a further sub-sample was split off with a nominal c. 50g size, which was shipped on to ALS Minerals at Rosia Montana, Romania for analysis.
Samples were analysed for gold by fire assay with an atomic absorption spectroscopy (“AAS”) finish (analytical code Au-AA23), and for silver, copper, lead and zinc using an aqua regia digest followed by an AAS finish (analytical code AA45). Any high grade gold samples (>10 g/t Au) were re-analysed using analytical code Au-GRA21 (also fire assay, but with a gravimetric finish). Any high grade Ag and base metal samples (Ag >100 g/t, and Cu, Pb and Zn >10,000ppm or >1%) were re-analysed using the ore grade technique AA46 (also an aqua regia digest followed by an AAS finish).

Janey Godley fears she has PTSD after finding out she had cancer in the midst of ‘being cancelled’
Janey Godley revealed that she fears she has PTSD after finding out she had cancer in the midst of public shaming over racist Twitter posts.
The comedian, loved by Nicola Sturgeon, said she spoke to Samaritans during the fallout from online posts made in 2011 - but then faced life-saving chemo after being diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer shortly after.
The race row erupted in September 2021, and on November 19 Godley went on stage knowing she had been diagnosed with cancer, before having surgery in January.
She said the cancer treatment had taught her humility and she lives with the knowledge there is a 70 - 90 per cent chance of it returning - and thought she’d stopped eating due to stress.
Most Popular
And she said she defended the right for people to say they hoped she died of cancer.
Godley, 61, said: “I went from being cancelled to cancer in six weeks - from trying to lose my life to fighting for my life.
“I’d been saying ‘I hope I die’. Now I was saying ‘f***, am I going to die? I want to live’. I still can’t step back and look at it all.
“It’s like PTSD. It frightens me thinking about it. I didn’t realise that the reason I wasn’t eating wasn’t the cancellation but because I’d a massive tumour.
“By the end of the tour, I’d this huge swelling. It wasn’t just me being a fat b*****d. I went to the doctor, they tested my blood, and they could see it right there.”
She added: “The last year was harder than anything I’ve been through, though -harder than a child abuse trial - because so much was my fault.
“The Twitter thing was my fault. I know I hurt people. People had every right to be angry. You take Government money, you open yourself to scrutiny, quite rightly so.
“I apologised immediately. It was wrong, I shouldn’t have written that. I don’t know what I was thinking. I’ve never been racist. I’ve marched for Black Lives Matter. I’ve marched against Trump and his racism.
“I’ve never been someone sneakily racist underneath but hiding it, so I apologised profusely but it was unforgiving.
“I literally became suicidal. It was really frightening to hear that voice in my head say ‘you could just end this’. I got emergency help - I got therapy. I spoke to the Samaritans - they were brilliant. They got me off a ledge.”
She added: “They can say they hope I die of cancer. I’ll defend their right to do so. But I just f***ing ignore it now.”
Her debut novel, a murder mystery called Nothing Left Unsaid was a sellout at the Edinburgh Book Festival.
But Godley told how she cried after a care assistant washed her following a hysterectomy, and described it as ‘the most poignant moment of my life’.
Godley said: “I still think about the human kindness of that wee woman. She washed my back, she washed my bum. I was standing there naked like a newborn baby, with all these drips.
“And she’s like ‘here, there’s the cloth, wash your boobs, you can do it’, and I was like ‘right okay’, and I’m trying to wash myself and she says ‘it’s gonna be alright’, and she just held me in her arms and I cried.”
She said she chose not to wear a wig as a gesture to other women. Godley said: “I wanted other women to see me bald. I could easily wear a wig, but I don’t want to.
“There might be women out there who can’t afford one. It’s alright to look like this. Everything used to be about me as a performer, a writer, an actor - it was all about me. But what’s happened made me go ‘you know what, everything isn’t f*****g about me’.”
Jerry Sadowitz, the Glasgow comedian who got himself into a “cancel culture” row at the Edinburgh Festival recently for apparently pushing things too far, once performed at the pub Godley ran before she made it in showbusiness.
“I don’t want to comment on another comedian’s material, as I wouldn’t expect them to comment on mine. But my general view is: if you make a mistake, say sorry.”
She said people who say provocative and offensive stuff can expect a backlash.
Godley said: “Don’t be an edgelord and hang off a cliff screaming s**t and then go ‘wait a minute, I wasn’t expecting a backlash’. That’s how you make your money - shouting s**t.
“You can expect people to shout s**t back. If you really hurt people and they feel they deserve an apology, then apologise. Comedy isn’t always about pushing boundaries.
“If you’re going to say contentious things, don’t be surprised if people pull you up. Say any s**t you want and accept the consequences, or don’t say s**t. They’re free to say what they want, I just don’t have to listen.” | https://www.glasgowworld.com/news/janey-godley-fears-she-has-ptsd-after-finding-out-she-had-cancer-in-the-midst-of-public-shaming-over-racist-twitter-posts-3814588 | 2022-08-22T13:18:39Z | https://www.glasgowworld.com/news/janey-godley-fears-she-has-ptsd-after-finding-out-she-had-cancer-in-the-midst-of-public-shaming-over-racist-twitter-posts-3814588 | true | 1 |
Top Gun: Maverick has become the 12th highest-grossing movie of all time, after a $14.55 million (about Rs. 120 crore) weekend at the worldwide box office saw its global total rise to $1.403 billion (about Rs. 11,200 crore).
It currently sits between Frozen II ($1.45 billion, about Rs. 11,600 crore), and Avengers: Age of Ultron ($1.402 billion, about Rs. 11,200 crore).
Of its $1.403 billion (about Rs. 11,200 crore) total, Top Gun: Maverick has collected over $683.3 million (about Rs. 5,500 crore) in the US and Canada, with the remaining $720 million (about Rs. 5,750 crore) coming from the rest of the world.
And that's without playing in China or Russia, which are two major movie markets.
Outside of the US and Canada, top-earning territories for Top Gun: Maverick include the United Kingdom ($95 million, about Rs. 750 crore), Japan ($82 million, about Rs. 650 crore), Korea ($62 million, about Rs. 500 crore), Australia ($60 million, about Rs. 500 crore), and France ($52.8 million, about Rs. 420 crore).
Maverick is the sequel to 1986 super-hit film Top Gun, which starred Tom Cruise, Kelly McGillis, and Val Kilmer, and was among one of the blockbuster hits of that year.
Top Gun: Maverick has also surpassed Titanic as Paramount studio's most popular movie in the US, though its $2.2 billion (about Rs.17,600 crore) worldwide gross is far cry for the Cruise-starrer.
Yet, thanks to stellar word-of-mouth and repeat customers, Maverick continues to defy the odds. And there's a chance the movie will continue to fly higher on box office charts.
Top Gun: Maverick is likely to continue selling tickets because the film does not have a ton of competition on the horizon internationally.
It'll be fairly desolate at the US box office until November, when Black Panther: Wakanda Forever opens in theatres. | https://gadgets360.com/entertainment/news/top-gun-maverick-box-office-1-403-billion-12th-biggest-movie-all-time-worldwide-tom-cruise-3274755 | 2022-08-22T13:18:46Z | https://gadgets360.com/entertainment/news/top-gun-maverick-box-office-1-403-billion-12th-biggest-movie-all-time-worldwide-tom-cruise-3274755 | false | 1 |
Royals Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis Are Starting at a New School Together! The royal siblings are joining Lambrook School in Berkshire in September By Simon Perry and Monique Jessen Published on August 22, 2022 07:35 AM Share Tweet Pin Email Prince William and Kate Middleton with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. Photo: Max Mumby/Indigo/Getty Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are the new kids in school. Prince William and Kate Middleton announced Monday that their three children are starting at Lambrook School in Berkshire next month following the family's upcoming relocation from London to Windsor. "Their Royal Highnesses are hugely grateful to Thomas's Battersea where George and Charlotte have had a happy start to their education since 2017 and 2019 respectively and are pleased to have found a school for all three of their children which shares a similar ethos and values," the royal couple said via a Kensington Palace release. Jonathan Perry, Headmaster at Lambrook School, added "We are delighted that Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis will be joining us this coming September and very much look forward to welcoming the family, as well as all of our new pupils, to our school community." Kate Middleton and Prince William's New Home in Windsor Doesn't Have Room for Nanny Maria Lambrook School While Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are expected to be day students at Lambrook, Prince George may follow in the academic footsteps of his father Prince William and uncle Prince Harry and make use of the school's flexible boarding option. Boarding school is a popular choice for the royals, especially those in senior positions or those like George, 9, who will one day be king. Prince Philip and Prince Charles were both sent to Cheam School at the age of 8, and both later boarded at the famously rough-and-tumble Gordonstoun in Scotland. Prince George, Prince Louis and Princess Charlotte. Samir Hussein/WireImage Prince George spent the last four years at Thomas's School in Battersea, the $23,000-per-year school just four miles from Kensington Palace in London. Princess Charlotte, 7, joined her big brother at the school in 2019, while Prince Louis, 4, attended Willcocks Nursery School, just like his older sister did before him. "We would like to thank George, Charlotte and all of our leaving pupils for upholding the school's values and for their many contributions to school life throughout their time at Thomas's. We wish them every happiness and success at their next schools and beyond," Ben Thomas, Principal of Thomas's London Day Schools, said in a statement. Prince William and Kate, both 40, toured several schools in the area as they looked for a suitable place for George, Charlotte and Louis to begin their next chapter in education. Prince George will likely remain a student at Lambrook until he leaves for a senior school, such as Eton College, which his father attended until he was 18.

Shrewsbury remain without Aiden O’Brien and Elliott Bennett as they prepare for Tuesday’s Carbao Cup tie against Burnley.
Forward O’Brien continues his recovery after undergoing a minor hip operation last week that is expected to keep him out for around a month-and-a-half.
Wing-back Bennett, who had ankle surgery last month, is closer to being available to boss Steve Cotterill.
The Shrews’ 3-0 League One loss to Ipswich on Saturday saw Ryan Bowman come off the bench having recovered from a back issue.
Burnley have Ian Maatsen unavailable through suspension.
The defender is banned after being sent off late on in Saturday’s 3-3 Championship draw with Blackpool.
Scott Twine and Kevin Long have been making progress in their recoveries from injury but were not part of Vincent Kompany’s matchday squad at the weekend.
Ashley Westwood continues to work his way to fitness after the ankle injury he sustained in April.

NIKOPOL, Ukraine (AP) — Russian shelling across the river from Ukraine's main nuclear power plant wounded four people Monday, an official said, hours after the latest international pleas to spare the area from attacks to prevent a catastrophe.
Meanwhile, Russia blamed Ukrainian spy agencies for the car bombing on the outskirts of Moscow over the weekend that killed the daughter of a far-right Russian political thinker and ardent supporter of the invasion of Ukraine.
On the battleground, the city of Nikopol, about 10 kilometers (six miles) downstream from the Zaporizhzhya nuclear plant, came under fire three times overnight from rockets and mortar shells. Houses, a kindergarten, a bus station and stores were hit, authorities said.
Mayor Oleksandr Saiuk said four people were wounded, and two of them were hospitalized.
The reports of sustained shelling around Europe's biggest nuclear plant further highlighted the dangers of a war that will hit the half-year mark on Wednesday.
After U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres urged caution during a visit to Ukraine last week, U.S. President Joe Biden further discussed the issue with the leaders of France, Germany and Britain on Sunday.
The four leaders stressed the need to avoid military operations in the region to prevent a nuclear disaster and called for the U.N.'s atomic energy agency to be allowed to visit the plant as soon as possible.
On Saturday night, a car bombing killed 29-year-old TV commentator Darya Dugina, whose father, political theorist Alexander Dugin, is often referred to as “Putin’s brain.”
On Monday, Russia’s Federal Security Service, the main successor to the KGB, said the killing was “prepared and perpetrated by the Ukrainian special services.” It charged that the bombing was carried out by a Ukrainian citizen who left Russia for Estonia afterward.
The FSB said that the suspect, Natalya Vovk, rented an apartment in the building where Dugina lived and shadowed her. Vovk and her daughter were at a nationalist festival that Dugin and his daughter attended just before the killing, the FSB said.
Ukraine officials have denied any involvement.
On the Russian-occupied Crimean Peninsula, anxiety has spread following a spate of fires and explosions at Russian facilities over the past two weeks. The governor of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhaev, ordered that signs showing the location of bomb shelters be placed in the city, which had long seemed untouchable.
Sevastopol, the Crimean port that is the home of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet, has seen a series of drone attacks. A drone exploded at the fleet’s headquarters on July 31, and another was shot down over it last week. Authorities said air-defense systems have shot down other drones as well.
Razvozhaev said on Telegram that the city is well-protected, but “it is better to know where the shelters are.”
Russian President Vladimir Putin didn't directly mention the war during a speech marking National Flag Day on Monday but echoed some of the justifications cited for the invasion.
"We are firm in pursuing in the international arena only those policies that meet the fundamental interests of the motherland,” Putin said. He maintains that Russia sent troops into Ukraine to protect it against the encroaching West.

Mother of 2 children found dead in suitcase believed to be in South Korea, police say
(CNN) - A woman believed to be the mother of two children whose remains were found in an auctioned suitcase in New Zealand last week is in South Korea, a Seoul police official told CNN on Monday.
The woman is a Korean-New Zealander, who arrived in South Korea in 2018 but has no record of departing the country, the official said.
She had a Korean nationality before acquiring the New Zealand nationality a “long time ago,” according to the South Korean police official who did not confirm if she was born in South Korea.
Her current whereabouts are unknown, the official added.
The officials from New Zealand police and their South Korean counterparts are coordinating and checking facts via the official Interpol channel.
The New Zealand police told CNN Monday that they were “not in a position to confirm” any new details or “provide further comment at this stage.”
Last week, the New Zealand police confirmed that they have launched a homicide investigation after the remains of two children, believed to be between ages 5 and 10, were found in suitcases bought by a family at an online auction.

STONECREST, Ga., Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- A protest will be held on Monday, August 22nd at 3120 Stonecrest Blvd., in opposition to IDI Logistics' proposed 2 million square foot warehouse. Residents and supporters for the preservation of natural resources, clean air, soil, and water denounce another corporate industry that will add more pollution to the area.
Malaika Wells President and CEO of SCC stated, "The Stonecrest Citizens Coalition supports concerned and civically engaged citizens in Stonecrest. I we believe that this event will spark increased dialogue between the City of Stonecrest and its citizens, and inspire the administration to craft development guidelines that center citizen voice and protect our environment and natural resources."
African Americans, Latino, Hispanic, rural, and disenfranchised people reside in locations which are continuously inundated with corporate entities spreading toxic emissions from diesel trucks. Diesel trucks are the largest transportation polluters on the road according to the Environmental Protection Agency.
"Communities of color are located alongside highways and are subjected to elevated levels of pollution," according to Lee Culpepper, a concerned resident of the area.
Citizens for a Healthy and Safe Environment President Renee Cail states, "The protest will inform the community about toxic emissions from diesel trucks such as carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that is driving climate change." Emissions from trucks such as nitrogen dioxide are linked to lung cancer, heart disease and premature death according to the E.P.A.

NEW YORK, Aug. 22, 2022
NEW YORK, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- August 22, 2022 — ALJ Regional Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALJJ) ("ALJ" or the "Company") announced today that it has submitted a formal notice to Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("NASDAQ") of its decision to voluntarily delist its common stock from the NASDAQ Global Market and its intent to file a Form 25 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on or about September 1, 2022. As a result, ALJ expects that the last day of trading of its common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market will be on or about September 11, 2022. After the Form 25 is effective, ALJ also intends to pursue such other measures necessary to terminate or suspend the registration of its common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Company is eligible to voluntarily deregister because it has fewer than 300 stockholders of record. ALJ anticipates that its common stock will be quoted on the Pink Sheets platform, which is operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. (the "Pink Sheets"), and ALJ currently intends to continue to provide information to its stockholders and to take such actions within its control to enable its common stock to be quoted in the Pink Sheets so that a trading market may continue to exist for its common stock. There is no guarantee, however, that a broker will continue to make a market in the common stock and that trading of the common stock will continue on the Pink Sheets or otherwise or that the Company will continue to provide information sufficient to enable brokers to provide quotes for its common stock.
The Company expects the deregistration of its common stock to become effective 90 days after the date of filing the Form 25 with the SEC. However, its reporting obligations to file certain reports with the SEC, including Forms 10-Q, 10-K and 8-K, will be immediately suspended upon filing the Form 25. Other filing requirements will terminate upon effectiveness of the deregistration.
The Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") believes that the decision to delist the common stock from NASDAQ and deregister the common stock under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders as it has determined that the burdens associated with operating as a registered public company outweigh any advantages to the Company and its stockholders at this time. The Board's decision was based on careful review of numerous factors, including the significant cost savings of no longer preparing and filing periodic reports with the SEC and reduction of significant legal, audit and other costs associated with being a reporting company, including the substantial costs and demands on management's time relating to the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, SEC rules and NASDAQ listing standards, as well as the fact that the Company currently intends to provide liquidity to its stockholders following the delisting by taking actions within its control to have the common stock traded on the Pink Sheets and making periodic repurchases of the Common Stock from our stockholders. Once delisted and deregistered, the Board believes that the Company may redirect its financial and management resources that have been used to operate as a registered public company to pursue a wider range of business opportunities and strategic transactions.

(KTLA) – A dog owner is warning the public after her small dog became permanently blinded after ingesting oxycodone and collapsing while on a walk in Santa Monica.
Lori Burns was walking her two dogs last week along Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica. She told Nexstar’s KTLA that tons of people were out exercising, playing, and walking their own dogs in the 78-degree weather.
Suddenly one of her dogs, a 15-pound former shelter dog named Chance, started to breathe heavily before collapsing.
Burns carried her dog to the car and immediately drove to a nearby veterinary clinic.
“They said they needed to immediately ice his body and give him oxygen and start an IV, and that’s when I looked at the vet and I said, ‘Is he going to live?’ and he said, ‘I really don’t know.'”
The veterinarian told her that Chance had a fever of 106 degrees and if they couldn’t bring down the temperature, his organs would begin to fail and he would die.
About an hour later after running some tests, the veterinary staff told Burns that Chance had somehow ingested oxycodone and had overdosed on the opioid.
Now knowing what they were dealing with, the veterinarians were able to treat his symptoms and Chance made what appeared to be a miraculous recovery.
Burns was able to pick Chance up the next day and bring him home, but that’s when she discovered that her dog’s life would be permanently altered: the medical scare had left him blind.
“I was thankful that I could pick him up the next day, bring him home and have him at least start this new chapter of his life, dark and blind,” Burns said. “At least he’s got my family and me to love on him.”
Veterinarians say it’s not entirely unheard of for dogs to mistakenly ingest opioids. Usually, though, dogs will accidentally eat a pill belonging to their owners.
Burns is unsure when or where Chance came in contact with the controlled substance, but she hopes her story helps other dog owners recognize the risks and signs of a doggy overdose.
Those signs include collapsing, problems breathing, urinating or drooling, and unstable walking as if they were drunk.
As for Chance, the dog was given his name after he was rescued from a shelter and given a new lease on life. Even with his new disability, it seems he’s been given yet another chance at a happy life. | https://www.wspa.com/news/national/dog-blinded-after-ingesting-oxycodone-during-walk/ | 2022-08-22T13:31:25Z | https://www.wspa.com/news/national/dog-blinded-after-ingesting-oxycodone-during-walk/ | true | 22 |

Ponder breaks down barriers to scalable data science with enterprise-ready pandas
Ponder, a data science startup born out of UC Berkeley, announced $7 million in seed funding to develop scalable, enterprise-ready and easy-to-use machine learning and analytics tools. Lightspeed Venture Partners led the round with Intel Capital, 8VC, and The House Fund participating.
Today, organizations are pouring time and money into data science initiatives, only to realize that they are not seeing returns on their investments. Take pandas, a Python library widely regarded as the most popular tool in data science, used by millions of data scientists to prepare, transform, and analyze data in machine learning workflows. Despite its widespread adoption, pandas becomes unusable on large datasets that are now the norm. Extensive engineering cycles are then wasted on rewriting pandas workloads into big data frameworks, leading to fewer models and insights in production. The resulting data pipelines also become difficult to maintain and debug.
Ponder is commercializing its popular open-source tools, Modin and Lux, to address pandas usability challenges at scale—all without changing the existing ways data teams work with their data. Modin is a scalable "drop-in replacement" for pandas, meaning that data scientists can seamlessly scale up to large datasets, without the users having to change a single line of code. Lux, on the other hand, is a visualization tool for pandas that automatically identifies visual insights on large and complex datasets, once again without changing a single line of code.
"We've spoken to dozens of data teams at this point, and a universal sentiment was that they use pandas extensively, but run into performance problems at scale, causing them to have to redo their work from scratch," said Doris Lee, CEO of Ponder. "With Ponder's tools, data scientists no longer have to pick between convenience and scale: they can get both."
Ponder's technology is used by 10 of the Fortune-100 companies and across sectors, ranging from pharmaceutical companies like Bristol Myers Squibb and GSK, to technology companies like Intel and VMware, to automotive companies like Ford and Tesla. The open-source tools have been downloaded over 2.5M times. At one ecommerce company, Modin helped scale up their data pre-processing pipelines to use 1000 times more data with orders-of-magnitude improvements in performance. Lux has been used for insight discovery in a variety of settings, from detecting anomalies in mobile networks to diving into experimental data for drug discovery at one of the world's largest pharmaceutical companies.
"Pandas is the de-facto swiss-army knife of data science, leveraged across industries for data exploration and machine learning. Unfortunately, it presents users with roadblocks when working with even moderately large datasets," said Gaurav Gupta, partner at Lightspeed. "Ponder's open-source technology addresses these issues, positioning the company to become a market leader in scalable data science."
Ponder's origins lie in the well-renowned UC Berkeley RISELab, which has produced several successful Silicon Valley startups, including Databricks and Anyscale. "Ponder's technology is based on many years of cutting-edge research that we did to bridge usability and scalability in data science tooling. And the impact is enormous: we are making scalable data science accessible to millions of data practitioners who live and breathe pandas," said Aditya Parameswaran, President of Ponder, also a Professor at UC Berkeley.
With the new funding, the remote-first company is looking to significantly scale its team in 2022 to meet the rising demand of enterprise customers and to continue growing and supporting the open-source community of users.
"The grassroots adoption that we've seen with these open-source tools is a testament to Ponder's vision around seamless scalability," said Devin Petersohn, co-founder and CTO of Ponder. "We're thrilled with the large influx of use cases, new directions of improvement, and stories of impact from data scientists, and look forward to continuing to work alongside them."

New Know Your HealthDocs bundle enables developers to rapidly create applications requiring digital scanning, enhancement, recognition, and verification of physical documents and forms
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Onymos, developer of the world's first Features-as-a-Service platform, today announced the launch of Know Your HealthDocs, a new bundled offering for healthcare that enables engineering teams to rapidly build applications that automate the manual process of healthcare document evaluation and transcription for frontline workers.
Know Your HealthDocs provides engineering teams with useful, core machine learning-powered application functionality, including automatic:
- Evaluation and verification of various physical healthcare documents — such as COVID-19 vaccination cards, prescriptions, and patient intake questionnaires — that help determine their validity and meet compliance requirements
- Enhancement of photos or scans of healthcare documents in preparation for future optical character recognition (OCR), reducing need for multiple versions
- Deployment of OCR capabilities to accurately and efficiently interpret the data on healthcare documents, accelerating the pace at which frontline workers can process them, as well as limiting errors associated with manual transcription
"Frontline healthcare workers are spending precious time vetting and correctly translating physical medical documents, while engineering teams are allocating 12 person months to creating custom applications that will streamline this process," said Shiva Nathan, Founder & CEO, Onymos. "Know Your HealthDocs was developed to eliminate error-prone manual processes faced by frontline workers, while enabling healthcare enterprise engineering teams to rapidly deploy needed apps through access to pre-developed functionality and machine learning-driven automation."
Today, enterprise engineering teams repeatedly create original healthcare applications with functionality for the digital scanning, enhancement, recognition, and verification of physical healthcare documents and forms. By leveraging Know Your HealthDocs, teams can:
- Make development time 4-10 times faster through a set of pre-developed, full-stack Features that can be easily added to new or existing applications and contain pre-trained machine learning models, UI/UX, underlying logic that runs on the device, as well as server-side functions and integrations that process and store data in the cloud
- Reallocate time and resources towards more strategic application innovation and differentiation by relieving development teams of the creation, maintenance, and enhancement of commodity functionality, as well as technical debt
For example, as COVID-19 vaccinations began to increase in early 2021, one of the nation's largest food and drug chain retailers required a solution that would enable their frontline pharmacy workers to scan and digitize handwritten vaccine forms. With Know Your HealthDocs, this retailer was able to develop and launch an application in one-tenth of the time to more than 1,500 of its stores across the country. For frontline workers, the application reduced time spent on evaluation and transcription by 80 percent; decreased the transcription error rate from 12 percent to 1 percent; and accelerated federal and state reimbursement for vaccinations from 20 weeks to 4 weeks.

Leaving on a Jet Plane: Why Steven Spielberg is facing flak over private aircraft
Hollywood director Steven Spielberg, who has regularly sounded the alarm over climate change, took 16 trips spanning 27,000 kilometres since 23 June in his Gulfstream G650. His plane burned more than Rs 92 lakh of fuel in just two months
Hollywood director Steven Spielberg is facing flak after a report that his private plane burned more than Rs 92 lakh of fuel in just two months.
The report by London marketing firm Yard based on data from ADS-B Exchange which tracks flights, stated that Spielberg, who has a Gulfstream G650, took 16 trips spanning 27,000 kilometres since 23 June.
However, at least three trips are yet to be added to the database compiled by Celebrity Jets.
Let’s take a closer look:
What the data says
New York Post, quoting information from Celebrity Jets, reported that Spielberg’s plane, going from New York to Amsterdam on 29 June, emitted 32 tons of carbon dioxide.
Then, on 1 July, the plane went to Rotterdam before returning to Westhampton – another 38 tons of carbon.
More trips were to follow – from Westhampton to California’s Van Nuys on 11 July, to Knock, Ireland, 21 on July and from Teterboro back to Van Nuys on 4 August.
His most recent trip came Thursday evening from the famous Martha’s Vineyard to Teterboro, as per the report.
Why is Spielberg taking flak?
Because Spielberg has regularly sounded the alarm about global warming and slammed those that “go blithely through life” without caring about the environment
“I’m terrified of [global warming],” Spielberg said in 2018, as per New York Post. “Global warming is a scientific reality. It’s not a political trick. It’s a true piece of real, measurable, quantifiable science.”
“People have to come around to believing that this is — we are going to have to have a kind of confrontation with destiny unless we do something about it today,” Spielberg said.
He added that “everybody has to be held responsible” for their role in climate change.
“You know when you’re not mindful of something that could pose a danger to your children and grandchildren?” Spielberg added. “Then you just go blithely through life with aerosol cans and doing all sorts of things that are depleting the ozone.”
Oprah, Swift, DiCaprio called out
But the Hollywood director is hardly the first famous person who has, while preaching environmentalism, made use of private jets in their personal life.
As per Newsweek, Spielberg was among a slew of celebrities known for climate change advocacy including songstress Taylor Swift and Oprah called out publicly for private jet use by UK-based marketing firm Yard.
Swift topped the list of celebrities using private jets.
Yard calculated Swift's jet as making 170 trips since January – for a total of 22,923 minutes, or 15.9 days, in the air.
The jet’s total flight emissions for the year were calculated at 8,293.54 tonnes which is "1,184.8 times more than the average person's total annual emissions."
Swift’s representative told Rolling Stone, "Taylor's jet is loaned out regularly to other individuals. To attribute most or all of these trips to her is blatantly incorrect."
As per Newsweek, the private jet of Oprah, who came ninth on the list, emitted an estimated 3,493.17 tonnes of carbon dioxide this year through a total of 68 flights, or "499 times more than the average person's total annual emissions."
In 2019, after watching Al Gore's global warming documentary An Inconvenient Truth, Oprah wrote: "The future of life as we know it is being determined by everything we're doing—and not doing. Now."
As per Fox News digital, actor Leonardo DiCaprio, while arguing for measures to combat climate change, has made frequent use of private jets – most notable flying from Europe to New York City to accept an environmental activism award in 2016.
DiCaprio, after accepting the award, then immediately flew back to Europe for a charity event.
DiCaprio in 2016 also took a private jet to the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos where he was honoured with the Crystal Award for his "leadership in tackling the climate crisis," as per the report.

On Monday, the presidential candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party, Labour party and the All Progressive Congress addressed thousands of lawyers at the 62nd Annual General Conference of the Nigerian Bar Association, tagged ‘Bold Transitions’.
The All Progressive Congress presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, was however represented at the program by his running mate Kashim Shettima.
Atiku Abubakar of the PDP and Peter Obi of the Labour Party were physically present at the event.
The candidates spoke in Lagos on the 1st plenary session of the conference tagged Democratic Transitions in 21st Century Nigeria: 2023 & Beyond and moderated by Dr Olisa Agbakoba, SAN.
According to Barristerng, Shettima who first spoke said that the problem of Nigeria is leadership.
He was quoted as saying that lawyers and Nigerians at large should make bold decision, not emotional ones, in 2023 election, saying that Tinubu transformed Lagos and could replicate same across the country if given the privilege.
Obi, who addressed the audience after Shettima, explained that it is on record that he remains one of the biggest beneficiary of the Judiciary having being returned to office as Anambra governor following his impeachment.
“Nigeria is now qualified as a failed State,” he said as quoted by Barristerng.
He added that 2023 election should not be about tribe or religion but character and competence.
Atiku used the opportunity to explain that his bold policy framework embodies Unity, Security, Economy, Education and Devolution of power to states and local governments.
The program is ongoing and will end on August 26.

He added that the conference also provides a veritable avenue for networking among lawyers, political and business leaders, international organisations, and other relevant stakeholders, with significant economic impact.
His words,” As many of us already know, the NBA is Nigeria’s foremost and oldest professional membership organisation, and Africa’s most influential network of legal practitioners, with over 125,000 lawyers on its roll in over 125 active branches across the 36 States of the Federation and the FCT, Abuja.
“The Annual Conference is our flagship event and the historical successes of previous conferences have made the AGC a permanent fixture in the NBA calendar that notably brings together distinguished public figures, thought leaders and captains of industry to interrogate crucial issues in law, business and governance.” | https://thewhistler.ng/nbaagc2022-atiku-peter-obi-shettima-address-lawyers-on-nigerias-democratic-transitions/ | 2022-08-22T13:45:26Z | https://thewhistler.ng/nbaagc2022-atiku-peter-obi-shettima-address-lawyers-on-nigerias-democratic-transitions/ | false | 1 |

A man has pleaded not guilty to murdering mother-of-two Katie Kenyon.
Andrew Burfield, 50, appeared at a pre-trial hearing at Preston Crown Court today.
Burfield, of Burnley, Lancashire, spoke only to confirm his name and to enter a not guilty plea when the charge of murder was read to him by the court clerk.
Katie, 33, from Padiham, Lancashire, vanished on April 22 after she was last seen leaving an address in Burnley and getting into a Ford Transit van.
Her family made desperate pleas for her safe return and police launched a large-scale investigation in a bid to trace her.

Specialist teams carried out extensive searches in the Forest of Bowland, Lancashire, where Katie's body was discovered a week after she disappeared.
A post mortem found she died of head injuries.
The remainder of today's 20-minute court hearing was concerned with legal matters that cannot be reported.
Several members of Katie's family watched proceedings from the public gallery.
Burfield will next appear at the same court for a pre-trial review hearing on November 4.
The date for his trial, expected to last two to three weeks, has been fixed for November 15.
After Katie's body was discovered, her family spoke of their 'heart-breaking nightmare'.
Her sister Jenny Kenyon paid tribute to her 'beautiful big sister' and said she would love her forever.
A JustGiving Page in Katie's memory has so far raised more than £27,000. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11134223/Man-50-pleads-not-guilty-murdering-mother-two-33-dead-forest.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490 | 2022-08-22T13:47:53Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11134223/Man-50-pleads-not-guilty-murdering-mother-two-33-dead-forest.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490 | true | 3 |
(This article was co-produced with Hoya Capital Real Estate)
In this article I will review two International Real Estate ETFs even though this is an asset class that has done poorly compared to the Vanguard Real Estate ETF (VNQ) which invests in the US REITs market. The picture is more mixed for the iShares International Developed Property ETF (NYSEARCA:WPS), but the clear laggard is the Vanguard Global ex-U.S. Real Estate ETF (NASDAQ:VNQI). More on that in the Portfolio strategy section of this article.
One factor that effects USD investors when putting funds into assets priced in other currencies is the movement of the USD against those currencies unless the investor, or in this scenario, the ETFs hedge against that effect; neither of these ETFs hedge.
Currently the USD is on a tear, almost reaching the peak hit at the height of the COVID panic. While that strength is not good for foreign assets, when the USD reverses course and weakens versus these currencies, it should add to the performance of both ETFs covered here. For more on the subject, here are links to recent Seeking Alpha articles about the strength of the USD:
I give WPS a BUY rating in lieu of buying a Total International equity ETF, but a HOLD when the other investment would be a Developed International equity ETF. I would pass on VNQI for international exposure.
Seeking Alpha describes this ETF as:
iShares International Developed Property ETF is an exchange traded fund launched by BlackRock, Inc. It is managed by BlackRock Fund Advisors. It invests in public equity markets of global ex-US region. The fund invests in stocks of companies operating across real estate sectors. It invests in growth and value stocks of companies across diversified market capitalization. WPS may invest up to 20% of its assets in certain futures, options and swap contracts, cash and cash equivalents, as well as in securities not included in the index, but which BFA believes will help the fund track the index. The fund seeks to track the performance of the S&P Developed ex-U.S. Property Index. WPS started in 2007.
Source: seekingalpha.com WPS
WPS has $62.5m in AUM and has a TTM yield of 4.67%. The managers charge 48bps in fees.
With WPS investing based on an Index, some understanding of that index is important. S&P describes the Index used as:
The S&P Developed Ex-U.S. Property Index defines and measures the investable universe of publicly traded property companies domiciled in developed countries outside of the U.S. The companies included are engaged in real estate related activities, such as property ownership, management, development, rental and investment.
Source: spglobal.com Index
S&P provides some basic statistics on the Index.
The Index is rebalanced annually in September with share changes and IPO updates in March, June, and December. The Property Index specifically excludes companies whose main source of revenue is derived from fees or interest earned when providing real estate services or financing. The REIT indices specifically exclude timber REITs, mortgage REITs, tower REITs, and mortgage-backed REITs. Over the past decade, the Index shows a 1.08% CAGR.
iShares provides a standard set of data points for their ETFs:
Like stocks, REITs also have sectors though different managers/index providers use different sets or even different assignments.
Because both of these ETFs use SPGlobal indices, the classifications match and I will compare them later in this article. The next table shows the allocations to the Top 10 countries.
With the exception of no China allocation (by rule), the rest closely match VNQI. Noticed "developed" is not based on size but country and market rules/stability, thus Singapore and Israel are okay. Hong Kong is also based on historical designation.
The Top 20 represent 33% out of a portfolio of nearly 400 holdings. About 1% of the assets are in currency holdings spread across 12+ countries.
WPS follows a distribution pattern I recognize from other REIT ETFs recently reviewed; unsteady with little growth over time. Seeking Alpha gives WPS a "C" grade for their distribution history.
Seeking Alpha describes this ETF as:
Vanguard Global ex-U.S. Real Estate ETF is an exchange traded fund launched and managed by The Vanguard Group, Inc. The fund invests in public equity markets of global ex-US region. The fund invests in stocks of companies operating across real estate sectors. The fund invests in growth and value stocks of companies across diversified market capitalization. It seeks to track the performance of the S&P Global ex-U.S. Property Index. VNQI started in 2010.
Source: seekingalpha.com VNQI
VNQI has $4.2b in AUM with a 12bps fee structure. As you will see later, the distributions are too erratic to list a yield for VNQI.
S&P describes the Index use by VNQI as:
The S&P Global Ex-U.S. Property Index defines and measures the investable universe of publicly traded property companies domiciled in developed and emerging markets excluding the U.S. The companies included are engaged in real estate related activities such as property ownership, management, development, rental and investment.
Source: spglobal.com Index
This index has almost 300 more holdings than the non-EM version but average market-caps are about the same. Except for including Emerging Market country REITs, the rules are the same. I count roughly 16 EM countries with China (7.6%), India (1.7%) and the Philippines (1.4%) the largest three.
Vanguard provides these basic statistics for VNQI as of the end of July, the latest available.
The allocations across regions are:
The Middle East includes a Developed country, Israel, and several Arab countries. The Top 10 country exposures are:
Note that Hong Kong comes in 3rd. Despite that designation, which is based on trading or incorporation of the asset, there could be mainland Chinese firms in this percentage. WPS holds Hong Kong REITs as an indication of its Developed World designation. Despite its placing 5th by weight, China has the most holdings at 103, followed by Japan at 87.
The largest holding is the 3% in the liquidity reserve, a common feature with Vanguard ETFs.
The Top 20 shown account for 27% of the market value of VNQI. The Top 10 in both ETFs are the same REITs in the same order.
The above illustrates why I was reluctant to state a yield for VNQI. For investors looking for steady income, neither of these ETFs fit that need. Seeking Alpha doesn't give VNQI a score for this factor.
For some parts of this comparison, I included another popular International Developed REITs ETF, the SPDR Dow Jones International Real Estate ETF (RWX). We start with return and risk data, which shows why RWX wasn't reviewed.
Since 2010, WPS has generated 40bps in extra return over VNQI with about the same level of risk. Both the Sharpe and Sortino ratios favor WPS. Both ETFs outperformed RWX. While the following are a snapshot-in-time, it does show how the ETFs differ in some important factors.
While VNQI and WPS Styles match up well, RWX has more of a Blend weighting and less in Small-Cap REITs than the other two ETFs. The top five countries in each ETF are very similar, except for VNQI's exposure to China.
Between WPS (1st set) and VNQI ( 2nd set), most ratios point to VNQI having more of a Value slant on the Price ratios and better ratios that are Growth-oriented. This could explain why VNQI was the best performer of the three over the past year.
Looking at just WPS and VNQI, the REITs sector allocations match up like this:
For this, I chose to ignore the 3% Liquidity Reserve held by VNQI. Most of the other sectors in WPS make up for the large underweight in Real Estate Development. The difference is almost totally due to the inclusion of EM REITs in VNQI, with China being most of that allocation bump.
There are several questions for an investor to reflect upon related to these two ETFs, beyond their relative risk and return results; some being:
Along with the two ETFs reviewed by this article, I added the following to provide data to start the research needed to answer the above questions and maybe others too.
The PortfolioVisualizer data that follows goes back to late 2010 when VNQI started and ends with July'22.
The data above aligns with the REIT ETF preceding its Equity ETF counterpart. From this, we get the following information:
So replacing US REITs with international REITs, performance wise, would be a bad move, even for diversity reasons. Between the other ETFs, the iShares International Developed Property ETF has a better CAGR, StdDev, and lower correlation to its international equities counterpart than the Vanguard Global ex-U.S. Real Estate ETF does.
I would give WPS a BUY rating in place of a Total International equity ETF but not the Vanguard FTSE Developed Markets ETF. As VNQI came in last, I would consider replacing it with WPS.

BERLIN (AP) — Several substances seem to have contributed to the massive fish die-off in the Oder River that forms much of Germany's border with Poland, a German official said Monday.
A spokesman for the Environment Ministry also rejected suggestions from a senior Polish official that Germany was spreading “fake news” about pesticides being behind the environmental disaster.
“The search for the causes of the fish die-off in the Oder still haven't been completed,” said Andreas Kuebler, the ministry spokesman. “So far we have several organic and inorganic substances that could be responsible.”
“It seems to be a cocktail of chemicals,” he told reporters in Berlin. “According to our information so far, none of these substances alone led to the fish die-off. It must still be assumed that this could be a multi-causal incident.”
Dead fish in the Oder were first noticed by fishermen in southwestern Poland in late July, but German authorities said they weren't officially notified by their Polish counterparts until the second week of August. Poland’s government is trying to track down those responsible. Ten tons of dead fish have been removed from the river.
Warsaw lashed out over the weekend, with Environment Minister Anna Moskwa accusing Germany of spreading "fake news" about the levels of pesticides in the river.
“In Poland, the substance is tested and detected below the quantification threshold, that is, it has no effect on fish and other species,” she wrote on Twitter.
Kuebler said Germany was “surprised and a bit saddened” by the claim.
“We never said that the Polish side is responsible for the the use of pesticides (and) that fish died of this,” he said.
Poland's prime minister has called the die-off an environmental “catastrophe.”

Advanced cervical cancer on the rise, study says
Published: Aug. 22, 2022 at 9:14 AM EDT|Updated: 37 minutes ago
(CNN) - Women in the United States are facing an increased threat of advanced-stage cervical cancer.
According to a study in the International Journal of Gynecological Cancer, stage 4 cases rose at a yearly rate of 1.3% from 2001 to 2018.
During that same time frame, the rate of early-stage cervical cancer dropped.
The research says the biggest spike was for white women at nearly 2%.
There are limited options to treat this condition, and those who contract it have less than a 20% chance of surviving longer than five years.

THESSALONIKI, Greece (AP) — Lightning struck Sunday during a nighttime trail race up a Greek mountain, killing one runner and seriously injuring another, Greek police and the fire service reported.
The two men were running in the Six Peaks race, which passes through the six highest peaks of Mount Falakro in northern Greece, when lightning struck a group of runners at 4 a.m. at an altitude of 1,340 meters (4,400 feet), a police officer told The Associated Press.
Two fire service rescue squads came up the mountain from the nearby town of Drama to find one runner, 55, already dead and another, 56, seriously injured. The injured runner was airlifted to a hospital in the city of Kavala, where authorities said he was in serious condition. Neither was identified.
The 35.7-kilometer (22.2-mile) race had started at 7 p.m. Saturday in the village of Pyrgoi, 630 meters (2,066 feet) up the slopes of the 2,232-meter (7,323-foot) mountain. Falakro’s six highest peaks in Greece are all over 2,000 meters (6,562 feet) high; the mountain extends into Bulgaria.
The weather was good when the race started but during the night heavy rain developed and the trail became muddy. By the time the lightning struck, several of the 55 runners taking part had reached the finish line at a mountain hut on top of the Falakro Ski Resort. Runners had 12 hours to complete the race.
The race is one of five, and the second shortest, organized since 2018 by the Nevrokopi Hiking and Mountaineering Club, located in the nearby town of Kato Nevrokopi under the collective name Frozen Peaks. The three longest races —269, 103 and 46 kilometers (167, 64 and 28.6 miles) — have been certified by the Switzerland-based International Trail Running Association.

MADISON, Ill. (AP) — Josef Newgarden saw the checkered flag out his windshield as the hard-charging rookie sprinted closer and closer into his rearview mirror.
David Malukas was coming fast for the leaders, seemingly out of nowhere, late Saturday night after a long rain delay and a strung-out race.
The 20-year-old was flying and darted outside and around Scott McLaughlin for second. Then he set his sights over the final lap on Newgarden, the two-time IndyCar champion so far unable to take control of the championship race.
Newgarden thought, “Wow, that kid is hungry.’”
Alas, Malukas ran out of time on the 1.25-mile oval outside St. Louis. He picked off McLaughlin, and if there had been one more lap, Malukas might have won his first IndyCar victory.
He’s still learning oval racing, even though his results show he’s a quick study. His 16th-place finish in the Indianapolis 500 was his lowest of the five ovals on the schedule; his second-place finish Saturday night was the best of his maiden IndyCar season and his first career podium.
And yet he’s left to wonder if a rookie mistake cost him a chance at running down Newgarden for the win at Gateway.
On fresh tires for the final run of the night, Malukas waited until two laps to go to experiment with the upper groove at Gateway. His car like a rocket ship in the top lane, he sailed past McLaughlin on the outside. Although he ran out of time to catch Newgarden, Malukas was closing in quickly when Newgarden took his series-best fifth win of the season.
What took him so long to try the outside lane?
“It was a bit unfortunate I did it so late. But I guess rookie season, rookie stuff,” Malukas said. “I’m going to put it in the back of my brain and remember it for next time.”
It wasn’t his only mistake of the night: Malukas was scolded by McLaughlin for mispronouncing his last name. It’s Muh-GLOCK’-luhn, McLaughlin said, and there’s no soft h.
Either way, second-place was just as good as the win on Saturday night for Malukas. He even got to celebrate with champagne when Newgarden graciously let the underage Malukas spray the real stuff instead of the grape juice he’d been given.
“Why didn’t they give me the real stuff? That’s not fun,” Malukas said. “Maybe I can just tell them I’ll close my mouth, I don’t know.”
Just three months ago he was smarting from losing Indianapolis 500 top rookie honors to Jimmie Johnson, who finished the race below Malukas but was rewarded for both an eye-popping speed show in qualifying and his ambassadorship for “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing.”
Malukas supporters were outraged and, after posting his own 200-plus mph marks in practice, as well as actually finishing highest among the Indy 500 rookies, Malukas himself wondered how he lost out on top rookie to 46-year-old Johnson.
Once the drama faded from social media, Malukas went back to big runs for tiny Dale Coyne Racing.
He finished eighth in the second race of the Iowa doubleheader last month and is ranked 16th in the standings, ahead of Indianapolis 500 winners Helio Castroneves and Takuma Sato, his teammate, and also the rest of the rookie class.
Newgarden heaped praise on Malukas after the race and said Malukas, a Lithuanian-American from the Chicago area, could probably get a little more aggressive. Newgarden is three points behind Team Penske teammate Will Power with two races remaining, yet he didn’t worry about the potential risks of racing a rookie with Saturday night’s win on the line.
“When you see rookies, I think you definitely are a bit more cautious or reserved, or at least you’re second-guessing what you think you should be doing,” Newgarden said. “I would give Malukas a lot of respect. He’s probably been one of the cleanest rookies I’ve ever seen. He’s been almost too respectful.”
Malukas acknowledged both getting out of the way of Penske cars during practice and also getting a little starry-eyed when he found himself racing Newgarden and McLaughlin.
His engineer radioed that Malukas was about to get sight of the race leaders and then he caught a glimpse of them sailing through Turns 1 and 2. It took a moment for him to realize that “Oh, my God, they’re Penskes. I’m going behind Penskes right now. This is crazy.’”
Malukas rooted for Team Penske as a kid and says he’s stayed out of their way when he made it to IndyCar this season: “Every time through practice, every time they passed me, I always let them by. Man,” he said.
And so he had to collect himself as he chased the duo.
“I was trying so hard to not get nervous. I mean, I was nervous, but I was trying so hard not to get overexcited and do something stupid,” Malukas said. “It’s definitely intimidating when there’s two Penskes in front of you.”

Historians and academics hit out at Kerala Governor Arif Mohammad Khan on Tuesday for calling the Vice Chancellor (VC) of Kannur University Dr Gopinath Ravindran a “criminal”.
Terming Khan’s comment “harassment”, a group of around 50 historians and academics came out in Ravindran’s support and said the governor’s statement constitutes a “false, defamatory and politically motivated campaign”.
“We are shocked to learn from the media that the Governor of Kerala, Arif Mohammad Khan, has described the Vice Chancellor of Kannur University, the eminent historian, Professor Gopinath Ravindran as a “criminal.” Professor Gopinath Ravindran is one of India’s leading historians, with a particular specialisation in the agrarian history of Kerala and historical demography,” they said in a statement.
“He was Head of the Department of History and Culture at the Jamia Millia Islamia Central University, New Delhi, and has been Member Secretary of the Indian Council of Historical Research. He has also been Director, Nelson Mandela Centre for Peace and Conflict Resolution at the Jamia Millia Islamia. As Vice Chancellor, Professor Gopinath Ravindran has led the Kannur University with distinction,” they further said.

The Governor, they said, “has on earlier occasions questioned the re-appointment of Professor Ravindran as Vice Chancellor in press statements” but pointed out that the High Court had dismissed a writ petition that sought to remove Professor Ravindran from the post.
“The false, defamatory and politically motivated campaign against the Vice Chancellor by the Governor and the Chancellor of the University is unacceptable. The Governor must stop this harassment of a distinguished historian and Vice Chancellor immediately,” the statement said.
Among the signatories are eminent historians Romila Thapar and K N Pannikar and academics Prabhat Patnaik, Aditya Mukherjee, Mridula Mukherjee, CP Chandrasekhar, Zoya Hasan and Harbans Mukhia.
Khan has had many face-offs with the Kerala government since his appointment as Governor in 2019. The latest tussle is over his decision to stay the appointment of Priya Varghese, wife of K K Ragesh, CPI(M) leader and private secretary to the Chief Minister, as associate professor in Kannur University’s Department of Malayalam over alleged violation of norms and favouritism. | https://indianexpress.com/article/india/historians-academics-hit-out-kerala-governor-remarks-kannur-university-vc-8105446/ | 2022-08-22T14:08:01Z | https://indianexpress.com/article/india/historians-academics-hit-out-kerala-governor-remarks-kannur-university-vc-8105446/ | false | 1 |

Like so many other children during World War II, the Queen was evacuated out of London away from her parents in 1939. King George IV and Queen Elizabeth remained at Buckingham Palace in solidarity with those suffering through the Blitz.
As bombs rained down on London, the then-Princess Elizabeth stayed at Windsor Castle with her sister Princess Margaret, and they only saw their parents at weekends. She was just 14 at the time and stayed 20 miles away from the capital, where other family members remained.
In her first ever broadcast, Elizabeth sent a message to the three million other evacuees who left cities during the war. On October 13, 1940 she spoke during BBC's Children's Hour in an attempt to boost morale.

In an address live from Windsor Castle drawing room, she said: “Thousands of you in this country have had to leave your homes and be separated from your fathers and mothers. My sister Margaret Rose and I feel so much for you, as we know from experience what it means to be away from those you love most of all.
"To you living in new surroundings, we send a message of true sympathy and at the same time we would like to thank the kind people who have welcomed you to their homes in the country.”
The then-Princess Elizabeth added: "Before I finish I can truthfully say to you all that we children at home are full of cheerfulness and courage. We are trying to do all we can to help our gallant sailors, soldiers and airmen, and we are trying, too, to bear our own share of the danger and sadness of war.
"We know, everyone of us, that in the end all will be well; for God will care for us and give us victory and peace. And when peace comes, remember it will be for us, the children of today, to make the world of tomorrow a better and happier place.
"My sister is by my side and we are both going to say goodnight to you. Come on, Margaret."
When the war eventually ended on VE Day in 1945, huge crowds took to the streets of London - including Princess Elizabeth, who ventured out of Buckingham Palace. In a 1985 interview marking the 40th anniversary of VE Day, she called it "one of the most memorable nights" of her life.
She recalled: "We [she and Princess Margaret] were terrified of being recognised, so I pulled my uniform cap well down over my eyes. A Grenadier officer among our party of about 16 people said he refused to be seen in the company of another officer improperly dressed, so I had to put my cap on normally."
She continued: "I remember lines of unknown people linking arms and walking down Whitehall, all of us just swept along on a tide of happiness and relief. I also remember when someone exchanged hats with a Dutch sailor; the poor man coming along with us in order to get his hat back."
The Queen's first cousin Margaret Rhodes - who celebrated with the royals - remembered that: "Trafalgar Square was jammed. It was a scene of joyful whoopee – full of people kissing policemen and other people. It was complete."
She went on to reveal that at 11.30pm the entourage "decided to go in the front door of the Ritz and do the conga. The Ritz was so stuffy and formal – we rather electrified the stuffy individuals inside.
"I don’t think people realised who was among the party – I think they thought it was just a group of drunk young people. I remember old ladies looking faintly shocked. As one congaed through, eyebrows were raised."

Naspers and Prosus released their full-year results on 27 June 2022, which revealed a decline in trading profit, core headline earnings per share, and free cash flow.
Naspers CEO Bob van Dijk downplayed the earnings decline, saying, “the group delivered strong growth and scale across our businesses, positioning them for continued growth”.
Van Dijk focussed on their 24% revenue growth, saying it represents a “strong and consistent performance in a volatile environment”.
“We invested in our segments and strategic mergers and acquisitions over the year, reflecting our belief in the potential of the businesses we are building.”
Market commentators were not convinced.
Moneyweb’s Simon Brown said the number that struck him was that 125% of the profits come from Tencent.
Tencent contributed $6.273 billion to Naspers’ trading profit, while its ecommerce operations recorded a $1.120 billion trading loss.
The losses in most ecommerce segments, including food delivery, edtech, and etail, increased by over 100%.
Craig Antonie, chief investment officer at AnBro Capital, said outside of Tencent, only the classifieds investments generate positive adjusted earnings.
However, these components are more like a rounding error if they are compared to the Tencent contribution.
“Overall, the rest of the segments lost about $880 million for Naspers over the last reporting period — hardly something to be happy about,” he said.
He said the market has doubts about Naspers and Prosus outside of Tencent, which is why it trades at such a large discount to its net asset value (NAV).
Sasfin Securities deputy chairman, David Shapiro, echoed Antonie’s views, saying Naspers and Prosus shareholders are mainly interested in Tencent.
“Shareholders are not interested in the loss-making food delivery, edtech, or food delivery businesses,” he said.
Naspers and Prosus under fire
Naspers has been trading at a significant discount to its net asset value for years, putting pressure on the management team to unlock value.
One of the strategies to unlock shareholder value was to list Naspers’ Internet businesses separately under the newly established Prosus.
Naspers claimed that it unlocked around R150-billion of value for shareholders through the Prosus listing, but the significant discount remained.
In another attempt to unlock value and reduce the trading discount to its assets, Naspers investors were asked to swap their stock for shares in Prosus in 2021.
This deal did little to add shareholder value and was described as “idiotic” by hedge fund manager Albert Saporta.
“It’s even more idiotic than the creation of Prosus, which was very idiotic,” Saporta said.
“I had never seen a situation where management would create another structure above the holding company to reduce the discount, which is what Naspers did when they created Prosus.”
“Now, two years down the line, they’ve realised it’s not working, and the discounts are higher than before, and they’ve come up with an even more stupid idea — a cross-holding which will happen after the tender is successful.”
In the latest attempt to unlock value, Naspers and Prosus have embarked on a share repurchase programme.
The programme is designed to increase net asset value per share, taking advantage of Prosus’s and Naspers’s trading discounts to their underlying net asset value.
The repurchase programme is open-ended and will run as long as elevated levels of the trading discount to the group’s underlying net asset value persist.
The programme is funded by an on-market sale of Tencent shares held by Prosus.
The company said Tencent is supportive of the withdrawal by Prosus of its voluntary restriction on the sale of its Tencent Shares.
Naspers’ management decisions slated by Sean Peche
Ranmore Fund Management founder, Sean Peche, has previously slated Naspers and Prosus management for poor acquisitions and destroying shareholder value.
Peche highlighted that in April 2021, Prosus sold 192 million Tencent shares, which amounts to 2% of its holding, for $14.6 billion.
Tencent’s share price has fallen significantly since then, making it seem like an excellent decision that should be commended.
Not so fast, said Peche.
Prosus agreed not to sell any more Tencent shares for the next three years as part of the deal. It means they suffered a significant hit on their remaining 29% stake in the Chinese tech giant.
Prosus will also remain exposed to the whims and fancies of the Chinese Government, which has caused hardship for tech giants like Tencent and Alibaba.
The worst part is what Prosus management did with the $14.6 billion it made from selling a portion of its Tencent stake.
Last year, Prosus spent $6.3 billion buying back stock at €89.20. These stocks would cost $5.3 billion today, which means shareholders lost $1 billion.
The management team also spent R53 billion buying Naspers shares at R3,318 each. These shares are now worth R37 billion, destroying R16.5 billion in shareholder value.
In August, Prosus announced a $4.7 billion deal buying Indian payment services provider BillDesk.
Peche said BillDesk’s unaudited management accounts showed a profit of $36.8 million and a net asset value (NAV) of $257 million.
It means Prosus paid 131 times earnings and 18 times the net asset value.
“It must be a small, high-growth business. Nope, apparently, 44 billion payments already take place in India with Billdesk generating $92 billion of total payment value,” Peche said.
Considering the significant transaction value and $36.8 million profit, it equates to a net margin of only 0.04%.
“Hang on, don’t you want businesses with pricing power in an inflationary environment because 131 years is a long time to wait just to get your money back before any return,” he said.
Naspers used the rest of the cash from the Tencent sale to buy more Delivery Hero shares a few months ago.
“According to Bloomberg filings, Naspers/Prosus spent €3.1 billion in 2021 buying 26.6 million shares at an average price of €117 per share,” Peche said.
After a recent trading update, which was essentially a profit warning, Delivery Hero’s share price collapsed to €42.
“This means Naspers is down 64% on its Delivery Hero investment last year,” he said.
Peche said with all these billions disappearing, it is good to keep cash away from the Naspers and Prosus management team.
Daily Investor asked Naspers for feedback about Peche’s comments, but the company did not respond.
How individual Naspers/Prosus companies performed
Naspers has three direct investments – 100% ownership in Takealot.com and Media24 and a 42% shareholding in Prosus.
In the last financial year, Media24 made a trading profit of R17 million and Takealot made a trading loss of $7 million.
Prosus, through its significant Tencent shareholding, is where most of Naspers’ value lies.
Prosus has a large portfolio of technology and internet companies, but delving into these companies’ financials is challenging as many are not listed.
The good news is that a handful of these companies are listed, which makes it possible to assess their profitability.
The table below shows the net income margins of Prosus’ listed investments.
The first column lists the most recent net income, and the second shows the company’s average net income since listing.
The summary shows that only three of the eleven listed companies are profitable.
Silvergate and Tencent have been exceptional performers.
However, Prosus only made a $0.01 billion investment into Silvergate. Its performance is insignificant in comparison with Tencent.
Prosus’ financial results revealed that, besides Tencent, its classifieds business is the only good performer.
The classifieds business’ $25 million profit is dwarfed by the significant losses of its other segments:
- Food delivery — $725 million trading loss.
- Payments and fintech — $60 million trading loss.
- Edtech — $117 million trading loss.
- Etail — $42 million trading loss.
- Other ecommerce — $202 million trading loss.
The $6.3 billion trading profit from Tencent has to make up for the huge losses of Naspers and Prosus’ other investments.
Considering these figures, it is no surprise that many Naspers shareholders have been begging for Tencent to be unbundled to unlock value.

Putting Workers at the Forefront of Tool Innovation, Bosch Demonstrates its Commitment to
the Trades with 'What Hard Workers Deserve'
MT. PROSPECT, Ill., Aug. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Bosch Power Tools, a global leader for power tools and accessories, is launching a new brand campaign, featuring the voice of Nick Offerman. The campaign focuses on the engineering of their power tools – in some extreme situations, which are designed to meet the demands of construction and trades workers on the job.
The brand has partnered with Nick Offerman, a long-time Bosch tool user, who purchased his first jig saw almost 30 years ago. "I don't have any fancy advertising slogans to offer here – all I know is that I have always turned to these tools when I want to perform hard work as efficiently and accurately as possible," said Offerman. Through a series of content launched across streaming T.V., radio, and social media, his iconic voice celebrates the tough work of trade workers and illustrates how Bosch engineers its tools to be ergonomic and efficient and to support career longevity.
"In our new campaign, we wanted to show that the most important part of any job site or situation is the worker. Every day on a job site is tough. The campaign has some extreme situations to highlight that no matter the situation, they get the job done," said Shannon Blakely, Vice President of Brand Marketing and Digital at Bosch.
The campaign is the result of an agency review completed in Spring 2022. Led by creative agency, Bailey Lauerman, the What Hard Workers Deserve campaign highlights three 18V cordless power tools: the PROFACTOR High Torque Hammer Drill/Driver, X-LOCK Angle Grinder, and 2-IN-1 Impact Driver and Impact Wrench. These tools tackle industry issues head-on, engineered from start to finish, based on direct workers' job site feedback.
"Our R&D teams have successfully merged ergonomic design with powerful tools to achieve peak performance, setting industry standards that prioritize the worker's needs, through ease-of-use and time savings on the job," said Philipp Gosau, Director of Product Development at Bosch. "Bosch Tools are built to support workers on the job site over a lifetime of work."

Why Wouldn’t Your Nutritionist Have An Eating Disorder?
The people we pay to tell us how to eat often struggle to feed themselves.
In 2011, when Emily Fonnesbeck, then the nutrition director of the Biggest Loser Resort in Fitness Ridge, Utah, began accepting private clients on the side, she knew she had to screen them carefully. "I was not in a place to take on eating disordered clients, because I was actually in the middle of my own."
Fonnesbeck didn’t have long-standing food issues; her eating disorder had emerged a few years before, when the weight she gained during her first pregnancy didn’t magically vanish after she gave birth. Thanks to her job at the Ranch, where she had worked since getting her degree in 2006, she knew how to drop the additional pounds. She exercised compulsively and cut out any foods that weren’t nutritionally dense. When she began to have digestive issues, she eliminated more foods. Soon, though, she was eating only five foods total. Her joints ached, she was having regular migraines, and she fractured her pelvis.
She knew that she had a problem and that she didn’t want to bring it into her fledgling practice. At the Ranch, which she left in 2012 to focus on private clients full-time, she had seen firsthand the toll extreme dieting and all-day workouts had on clients. "I remember the guests were hobbling in so much pain. And over time I started thinking, Is this really what health looks like? Can't walk at the end of the day? Preoccupied with food?”
And yet she found herself advising her private clients to eliminate sugar and dairy from their diets, just like she had. “Cut this out and you’ll feel better,” she remembers telling them, even though there is still no good data showing that people without diabetes or a severe dairy allergy need to eliminate either. “It wasn't really evidence-based practice,'' she says now. “It was coming out of my own fear.”
One of the clients Fonnesbeck treated at that time was struggling with disordered eating and thus particularly vulnerable to putting Fonnesbeck’s restrictive recommendations into practice. The dietitian was so deep in her own eating disorder that she didn’t recognize that her client was in trouble. What’s striking for Fonnesbeck now, in recovery, is that she didn’t even realize she wasn’t giving sound advice. “I really felt like I was.”
If you've seen a nutritionist in private practice, you may already suspect that Fonnesbeck is not the only dietitian to have practiced with an active eating disorder. You sit across from a probably slender, probably white woman who extols the energy and clarity you’ll have when you follow the meal plan she recommends. She tells you not to worry if it seems like not that much food. “Detoxing” from gluten, dairy, sugar, and processed food will curb your cravings for them, and you can always fill up on Scandinavian fiber crackers with the consistency of pressed mulch. As you leave to pursue the nearest cheeseburger, you may catch yourself thinking (uncharitably, because looming starvation makes you petty): Like she even eats.
But it is widely known among nutritionists and the most powerful body in American dietetics that many dietitians actually do struggle to feed themselves, potentially putting unsuspecting clients at risk. “It’s the elephant in the room,” one dietitian says, even though it’s not all that surprising. After all, how do you avoid obsessing about food when thinking about it is literally your job? And more than a decade into our current, juice-slicked quest for wellness, what’s the difference between eating that harms and eating that — allegedly — heals?
Eating disorder behaviors have been observed in dietetics students since at least 1985, but the only study of how prevalent they are among practicing U.S. dietitians is a published master’s thesis by dietitian Kaylee Tremelling, who is also now in private practice in Utah. When Tremelling began her graduate degree in clinical nutrition at University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas in 2014, she had been caught in a cycle of binging and restricting for years. Like many dietetics students, she majored in nutrition as an undergrad partly in the hopes of figuring out what was wrong with her eating — and thereby managing her weight. “It was definitely coming from, How do I fix this? What's the secret magic formula that I should be trying to use? ... I knew I was struggling." In grad school, her disordered eating morphed into orthorexia, a preoccupation with eating only “healthy” food that nutrition training seemed to support. “Because I was going to be a dietician, I felt pressure to act a certain way and eat a certain way."
Noticing a similar mindset among her classmates, Tremelling designed a survey to detect the prevalence of eating disorders generally, and orthorexia specifically, among practicing registered dietitians nationwide. Almost half of the 636 respondents included scored as high risk for orthorexia. Thirteen percent scored as high risk for anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, or another type of disordered eating. Eight percent reported that they had been treated for an eating disorder in the past.
Tremelling’s faculty advisers weren’t exactly surprised by the results. “Maybe they wanted to be like, ‘No way, that's not real,’ but inside, they knew this is common,” she says. “Eating disorders bring people into the dietetic[s] field.”
It’s easy to see why: One common eating disorder symptom is frequent and obsessive thinking about food.
Other dietitians say their eating disorders were triggered by dietetics training itself, and the culture around it. "I did not have an eating disorder until I started studying nutrition," says Jessica Serdikoff Romola, a registered dietitian in New Jersey who traces her orthorexia back to her first semester as a dietetics major. When she learned that trans fats are highly associated with heart disease, she tried to avoid foods containing them and felt anxiety when she did eat them. “The statistics that they teach you are so alarming, you go, ‘I feel like I can't eat them at all.’ Then, it just became one thing after another that I would cut out of my diet in order to be healthier,” she says.
In her first job out of college, she worked as an in-store nutritionist for a supermarket chain, performing food demos and providing individual and group nutrition counseling to customers. She estimates that she practiced for three years before she began to recognize and address her disordered eating.
To be accredited by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, undergraduate and graduate nutrition programs must offer courses in a long list of subject areas, from organic chemistry and research methodology to medical nutrition therapy (nutrition support related to a specific illness, such as diabetes or renal failure) and clinical workflow. Course materials generally encourage moderate, sensible eating and instruct students not to eliminate any food from a client’s diet unless there is a food allergy. “All foods fit” is an often repeated tenet. However, dietitians say there is a disconnect between this message of moderation and the parts of the curriculum that are dominated by obesity prevention.
“The assumption is that this is this core issue with public health, so much of the curriculum ends up being focused on that,” says Kimmie Singh, an eating disorder dietitian in New York City who entered the field after recovering from her own eating disorder.
Former students remember being required to track what they ate for three days, then analyze their choices based on any change in their body size. Others recall being paired with another student to perform skin fold analyses on each other in class to measure percent body fat. Tremelling, who surveyed the prevalence of eating disorders among U.S. dietitians for her graduate thesis, says she had to weigh herself and measure her waist circumference in front of classmates in an undergraduate class. Most courses don’t mention body diversity, or the long-established research indicating that most people cannot intentionally lose weight and keep it off. “Even a dietitian that promotes weight loss should know that,” says Singh. “Why are you not at least aware of the research?”
On top of the curriculum, there is a classroom and social atmosphere that Singh describes as “diet culture on steroids.” Serdikoff Romola has clear memories of this. “One professor asked us in class to raise our hands if we eat salad every day. I didn't raise my hand because I didn't. And they asked anyone who wasn't raising [their] hand how they expected to get all of their vegetables in,” she recalls. Another time, as part of her involvement with the dietetics student organization, “I wanted to plan a cupcake-decorating party as a team building exercise, and I got a good amount of pushback” from fellow students. They told her it was unethical for a dietetic association to be promoting dessert. Singh remembers students being embarrassed about the snacks they brought to school. “Once in class a student opened a bag of Flaming Hot Cheetos, and she tried to hide them and apologized for eating them.”
Sometimes faculty members in Singh’s program openly made fun of fat people or habits they ascribed to fat people. “In my first nutrition class, the professor, who has since retired, started making fat jokes right at the start of class. I remember him saying, I miss the days you could just call people fat. The fatphobia was very explicit,” says Singh, a self-described fat dietitian. “You see I'm a fat person sitting right here,” she remembers thinking. “It was really, really f*cking weird.”
Dietitians describe understanding as students that succeeding in the field meant maintaining a low weight. Kylie Mitchell, 32, a Houston-based registered dietitian who specializes in treating eating disorders, sums up the mentality: “If you’re a dietitian, you’re thin.” Rather than worrying about disordered eating, she says, students are more likely to be haunted by the question, “What if I end up a fat dietitian?”
Meanwhile, undergraduate dietetics programs are not required to teach future dietitians about eating disorders, and most of the dietitians interviewed for this story recalled fewer than three class meetings mentioning them. "It was always talked about as this really rare thing that you'll never see," Mitchell says. (The worldwide prevalence of eating disorders more than doubled between 2000 and 2018, from an average of 3.5% between 2000 and 2006 to 7.8% between 2013 and 2018.) Students who are interested can pursue additional certification after graduation.
A nutritionist practicing in the grip of an untreated eating disorder can harm clients, experts say. The most obvious concern is one of basic functioning: “Are they malnourished? Is it affecting their cognitive function?” Singh says. “Similar to why you shouldn't see clients while you're drunk — you want to be of sound mind.” If the dietitian is medically stable but not in treatment, she might pass on disordered ideas as fact. In Singh’s first sessions with new clients, they often recall their eating disorder gaining fuel from a specific instance when a dietitian came to speak to their class about “healthy eating.” “Dietitians are seen as the food and body authority,” Singh says. “So if they're given that position of power, and then they don't know what's appropriate to say because their eating disorder is driving the car, it can be really harmful for all the passengers.”
Despite the evidence that nutritionists and clients are struggling, the field has taken little official action to help them. Whitney Linsenmeyer, a registered dietitian and a spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the governing authority in U.S. dietetics, said in an interview that the academy has long been aware of the prevalence of eating disorders among dietitians and the ethical dilemmas it presents. When asked what support or education has been offered in response, she said, “To my knowledge there is not movement at the national level or from the academy to specifically address this issue.”
The academy also emailed a statement:
The issue has been discussed in papers published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and in blog posts by members of the Academy’s Behavioral Health Nutrition dietetic practice group.
The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics do not track or screen RDNs or dietetic students for eating disorders due to privacy concerns.
Registered dietitian nutritionists, like all people, experience the full range of health issues. RDNs or dietetic students with eating disorders are encouraged to seek the help of RDNs who specialize in treating clients with eating disorders.
Dietitians in recovery from eating disorders point out that colleagues who are struggling may be reluctant to see another member of the field about their eating issues. When Fonnesbeck entered recovery, she saw a therapist and a medical doctor, but she wouldn’t see a dietitian. She remembers thinking, “I'm a dietician. I should have food figured out.”
What’s difficult about addressing disordered eating in anyone, including dietitians, is that disordered eating and healthy eating often look a lot alike. Is going gluten-free a proactive effort to reduce inflammation or an acceptable rebranding of the low-carb diets of the late ‘90s and early aughts? Is cutting out sugar a gateway to years of binge-restrict hell or the only sensible option if you want to prevent diabetes?
According to eating disorder nutritionists, the difference actually has nothing to do with food. “It's impossible to say that someone who doesn't eat sugar is orthorexic,” Fonnesbeck says. “It has to do with the intention around those behaviors, how those behaviors are affecting quality of life. One person could be choosing to eat a certain way because they feel really good about it, and … someone could be eating the very same way and have it be pathological and dysfunctional.”
Fonnesbeck screens new clients in part by asking what percentage of their day they spend thinking about food or their body. “Someone who's struggling is going to be 50% or higher,” she says. It’s an even bigger red flag when they defend their preoccupation as “I’m just interested in health.” For nutritionists and clients alike, Singh says, “The more anxiety it gives you to not eat healthy, the more disordered your eating probably is.”
If you’re a prospective client looking for a nutritionist, the best way to guard against potentially harmful advice is to see a dietitian who takes a non-diet approach, meaning they won’t focus on your weight, ask you to count calories, encourage you to eat less, or ban any food. Any guidelines offered should be flexible and accommodate your budget, schedule, ethnic background, and circumstances. Above all, a dietitian should encourage variety. The human body works by acquiring the nutrients it needs from many different sources, Fonnesbeck says. “If someone is cutting out foods over and over again, [that] restriction puts them at risk for inadequate nourishment.”
Dietitians say they do see more of this advice trickling into the profession, thanks in part to individual practitioners’ willingness to go public about their own struggles. Serdikoff, who now counsels other dietitians on burnout and “the pressures of being a dietician — looking, acting, eating a certain way” — says the whole field is shifting to be more honest and supportive about the difficulties both clinicians and clients have with food. She describes colleagues becoming more sensitive to their clients' struggles after confronting their own eating issues. “It's an amazing time to be a dietician,” she says.
In the depths of her eating disorder, Fonnesbeck promised herself, “If I ever can find a way out of this, I promise to be part of the solution, not a part of the problem.” When she recovered, she posted a public apology on her blog. She also made individual amends to the clients she worked with, including the client she treated when she first went into practice, who she later realized had an eating disorder. In 2019, that person became her client again. This time around, all foods fit. | https://www.bustle.com/wellness/nutritionists-dietitians-eating-disorders | 2022-08-22T14:23:46Z | https://www.bustle.com/wellness/nutritionists-dietitians-eating-disorders | true | 1 |
Get the point: Why Louisville basketball's El Ellis relishing his shot to run offense
He understands your confusion, but El Ellis is here to set you straight.
Yes, that was him you saw last Louisville basketball season, pouring in points off the bench or as a sometimes-starter. And you’re right, on occasion he put up major numbers in short spurts, a classic change-of-pace scoring guard.
He scored 16 points at Michigan State and 14 in a home game against Duke, in the second halves alone. He poured in 25 points in 33 minutes against North Carolina, averaged 15.7 points over a six-game stretch in January and February.
Ellis had some dazzling scoring performances.
All the while, he felt a little miscast.
“I was in those games to score,” Ellis told The Courier Journal this month. “But when the ball was in my hands, it's not like it was in my hands the entire game. I just maximized the opportunity that I had. So I was viewed as an off-ball guard all last year. And it was kind of frustrating to me, because, I mean, that's not who I am.”
'He can be an inspiration':What Kenny Payne's hire means to Louisville's Black community
Louisville was in desperate need of scoring last season. As a result, Ellis said, he played off the ball maybe more than any basketball season in his life.
But he sees himself as a point guard. Always has.
New Cardinals coach Kenny Payne has little choice but to view him the same way.
Given U of L’s shortage of scholarship point guards — the addition last week of freshman Fabio Basili means Ellis won’t be the only one on the U of L roster — Payne is expected to hand the keys to Ellis, a 6-foot-3 senior.
But Ellis doesn’t want the position by default.
So he’s spent his summer working every day, he said, to “be that guy.”
That guy who gets on his teammates when they need extra energy, who praises what they do well. The one who communicates on every play, barking out orders at both ends of the floor. The guy who masters Payne’s offense, which Ellis said will be more NBA-oriented than what the Cardinals have run in recent years, predicated on pick-and-roll plays and off-ball cuts.
“I know where everybody's supposed to be on the court,” Ellis said. “Like, I know every play from every position. I know when my screen is coming, when it's not; when I need to get this guy the ball; when I need to screen for this guy.”
And the playbook has been only part of his preparation.
There’s the constant communication with Louisville coaches, particularly Payne, who has stressed to Ellis the point guard should be an on-court extension of the coaches. There’s the work with center Sydney Curry, with whom Ellis predicts he’ll pair to be “one of the best pick-and-roll duos in the country.”
And there was the time Ellis spent picking the brain of Utah Jazz star Donovan Mitchell when the ex-Cardinal guard returned to campus this summer. Ellis watched Mitchell work and tried to soak up everything the three-time NBA All-Star said.
“Like, he gave me bits and pieces of how I should attack in transition,” Ellis said. “How everything I do needs to be quick. I need to not waste any dribbles, be very efficient.”
That’s a point of emphasis for Ellis this summer, an issue Payne has raised repeatedly.
“In the (NBA), not many guys are taking 10, 12 dribbles in a possession to get a bucket, to make a play,” Ellis said. "Being able to do that in the least amount of dribbles makes you the best player you can be.”
So Payne stresses no more than two or three dribbles at a time. Ellis’ role in initiating the offense is to get the ball moving. Not hold it and seek the best play for himself was a habit he fell into at times last season, his first after transferring from Tallahassee Community College.
Though Ellis last season wasn’t strictly speaking a point guard — Jarrod West was Louisville’s chief initiator — he did have the ball in his hands a lot.

According to college basketball analytics site KenPom.com, Ellis used 24.3% of Louisville’s possessions last season. That means nearly a quarter of the Cards’ offensive trips when he was on the court ended with Ellis taking a shot, making a trip to the free-throw line or committing a turnover.
Only Curry, Louisville’s most efficient scorer by the end of last season, had a higher usage rate among U of L players last season, using 25.1% of possessions.
But those numbers are more illustrative of Ellis’s aggressiveness than of his time spent running the team. He’ll probably have the ball as much or more in 2022-23, but he’ll be asked to use it differently.
Last season Ellis had 51 assists and 45 turnovers.
He’s confident he’ll be better as a setup man this season, having spent the summer preparing to move back into the role where he’s most comfortable.
“Last year, they wanted me to be that scorer, because they knew I could really score the ball,” Ellis said. “But in reality, that's really not me. I know I can score, but I know I can really get guys easier shots. And I know I can run a team.”
His point-guard preparation started last season, Ellis said, when he watched the way West brought energy in practice every day, the way he communicated with teammates. The two roommates had regular talks, Ellis said, about quarterbacking an offense.
“He showed me how to run a team, how to be a leader, how to set guys up and just how to be an everyday guy,” Ellis said. “I’m glad that I had the opportunity. So I'm not gonna say it was so bad. It had its pros and cons.”
So far, Ellis likes what he’s seen from the guys he’ll be setting up, including some new faces.
Tennessee transfer Brandon Huntley-Hatfield “has so much potential,” Ellis said, and freshman wings Devin Ree and Kamari Lands “have showed me that they can really shoot the ball.”
“Devin Ree really doesn't miss, honestly, I’m not gonna lie,” Ellis said. “Kamari doesn't miss much either.”
It’s Ellis’s job now to maximize what’s around him, to involve those newcomers and feed returnees like Curry and Jae’Lyn Withers. And to do it efficiently. And to provide leadership. And to look for his shot when it’s time to score.
It’s a lot to balance.
But Ellis insists it’s less a new role than a return to a familiar one.
“Being able to get back on the ball and be the leader and be able to make plays at any given moment when I have the ball my hands — I mean, that's what I do,” Ellis said. “And I want to be able to showcase that at this level.” | https://www.courier-journal.com/story/sports/college/louisville/2022/08/22/louisville-basketballs-el-ellis-preparing-for-point-guard-duties/65404086007/ | 2022-08-22T14:23:57Z | https://www.courier-journal.com/story/sports/college/louisville/2022/08/22/louisville-basketballs-el-ellis-preparing-for-point-guard-duties/65404086007/ | false | 1 |
NEXT Weather: Spotty showers with temps in triple digits
MIAMI - A warm, muggy Monday morning with low 80s. Spotty showers are moving in on the ocean breeze but later on the storms will push inland and to the west coast this afternoon.
Highs will soar to the low 90s and it will feel like the 100s this afternoon when you factor in the high humidity.
Tomorrow we will see a repeat with mostly morning showers courtesy of the onshore flow. But the rain chance begins to rise middle of the week as moisture increases across South Florida.
By late week into the weekend, the rain chance will be even higher with storms likely Friday through Sunday due to more of a Southerly flow.
It will not be quite as hot due to the rain and cloud coverage expected. Highs will be in the upper 80s Saturday and Sunday.

Former Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq acknowledged that left-arm fast bowler Shaheen Afridi missing out on Asia Cup 2022 is a massive setback for Babar Azam & Co.
On August 20, Afridi was ruled out of Asia Cup, starting from August 27 in the UAE and subsequent seven-match home T20I series against England from September 20 to October 2 due to right knee ligament injury. The injury, coming after medical advice of 4-6 weeks of rest, also rules him out of Pakistan playing against India in Asia Cup on August 28 in Dubai.
Shaheen had played a huge role in Pakistan's resounding ten-wicket victory over India last year in the Men's T20 World Cup at the same venue, picking a stunning 3-31 in his four overs and keeping India to 151. Shaheen's efforts helped Pakistan earn their first win over India in Men's World Cups.
"It's a massive setback for Pakistan that Shaheen Shah Afridi is out of the Asia Cup. If you look at the last match against India, he created pressure right from the very first over in the previous edition of the T20 World Cup. It's a tough decision for Pakistan as Shaheen has been ruled out of the tournament," said Inzamam on his Youtube channel.
Afridi is expected to return to competitive cricket in October with the T20I tri-series in New Zealand, also featuring Bangladesh as the third side and will be followed by the ICC Men's T20 World Cup in Australia in October-November.
Despite Afridi's absence from the marquee match, Inzamam feels that India-Pakistan match will live up to the expectations. "But injuries are part of the game as these types of things happen to players. In his absence, the other boys are putting up good performances. I still expect the India-Pakistan match to be a fantastic one irrespective of where it is held and good cricket to be seen as both teams play T20 cricket very well."
Earlier, on Monday, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) brought in young right-arm pace bowler Mohammad Hasnain as Afridi's replacement for the Asia Cup, starting from August 27 in the UAE.

The world is changing — why isn’t America’s approach to foreign policy?
Words and slogans matter. President Obama’s “pivot to Asia”; President Trump’s “do me a small favor”; and President Biden’s “pariah and war criminal” labels all created major problems. Two current slogans, unless stricken from the lexicon now, will prove as counterproductive or worse.
Since Russia’s 2014 attack on Georgia, many have regarded East-West relations as having entered a “new cold war” or “Cold War 2.0.” The arguments superficially may seem self-evident, as Russia turned from potential partner to adversary. They are not. The principal reason is that none of the assumptions foundational to the old Cold War paradigm apply today.
That Cold War construct rested on containing and deterring the Soviet Union. The thinking was that military alliances, principally NATO, and nuclear weapons would deter future Soviet expansion and aggression. The double-edged phrase MAD, for mutual assured destruction, expressed the understanding that thermonuclear war would eviscerate society on both sides of the Iron Curtain, making it unwinnable. And the West assumed or hoped that nuclear deterrence could be extended to deter lower levels of conflict with the USSR.
Further, both sides maintained ongoing dialogues and communications that produced substantial arms control agreements and treaties. This ensured that what Nikita Khrushchev called “peaceful coexistence” would persist. Crises such as the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 were resolved short of war. And the West’s endurance combined with the irrationality of the Soviet political and economic systems resulted in its collapse, ending the Cold War.
None of these remains in place. Then, the Soviet Union was singularly a military superpower. China was a nascent, developing country, used as a lever to bring about detente between Washington and Moscow. Today, Russia is a military and energy superpower. China is both an economic and rising military superpower. And the two are hostile towards America and NATO.
Today, neither China nor Russia has been contained or deterred. China’s Belt and Road initiative, militarization of tiny islets in contiguous seas and military buildup continue. Russia’s annexation of South Ossetia in 2008 and its 2014 seizure of Crimea were unopposed until this past Feb. 24, when Moscow invaded Ukraine.
Unfortunately, using the term “Cold War 2.0” reinforces the logic that today’s confrontations with Russia and China must be met and countered largely through military means. That may or not be the case. It is insufficient, and it neglects the stunning absence of bilateral communications. Unlike the Cold War, the U.S. and NATO are not engaged in regular dialogue or discussion with Russia today to alleviate any military confrontation, nor with China.
Beginning with the Obama administration, the U.S. embraced “great power competition” with China and Russia as its strategic framework. But “great power competition,” like “Cold War 2.0,” is a substantively diaphanous concept. Competition requires rules if it is to occur on a level playing field. There are none.
Over what are the U.S., China and Russia competing as opposed to contesting? Adequate definitions of competition are also missing. Regarding a military competition, what safeguards are in place to prevent the rivalries that erupted into World War I from reoccurring? None.
Distorting the dimensions of great power competition is the importance President Biden attaches to the conflict between “democracy and autocracy.” This is both an unhelpful and false dichotomy as Biden’s trip to Saudi Arabia made clear. Democracy must demonstrate that it works. Yet, the U.S., UK, French and Italian governments show signs of failing while Russia’s and China’s seem more stable.
“Cold War 2.0” and “great power competition” should be replaced by the more accurate description of “dangerous coexistence.” Ensuring that some form of coexistence in these dangerous times can be preserved must be in the interests of all, given the many areas of conflict that could collide or explode into crises. And there are even greater, possibly existential, threats.
Elsewhere, the tectonic change in international politics has been characterized as the transition from the old to the “new MAD” of Massive Attacks of Disruption. Disruptive attacks are caused by man, from the invasion of Ukraine to Jan. 6 insurgencies, and by nature through natural disasters and pandemics. These and other disruptors are potentially existential. And the world is dangerously unprepared for the new MAD.
“Dangerous coexistence” must replace “Cold War 2.0” and “great power competition” in our thinking. And within this new paradigm, containing and preventing the new MAD should become foundational. The sooner these necessities are fully understood, the sooner we will become safer, more secure and more prosperous.

MASON, Ohio (AP) — Caroline Garcia generated momentum going into the U.S. Open in a week, capturing the Western & Southern Open women’s championship with a 6-2, 6-4 win over Petra Kvitova on Sunday.
And Borna Coric continued his headlong rush up the men’s rankings, completing an improbable run to the championship with a 7-6 (0), 6-2 win over No. 5 Stefanos Tsitsipas in the first final at this tournament for both players.
Coric, 25, is expected to be ranked 29th going into the U.S. Open. He opened the tournament at 152 before upsetting five seeded players and four in the top 10, including Rafael Nadal. The Croatian entered the tournament on a protected injury ranking.
The 24-year-old Tsitsipas, from Greece, was trying to become the first man this season to win championships on all three surfaces — hard court, grass and clay. He has won a tour-high 46 matches this season.
Tsitsipas took a 4-1 lead in the first set, but he couldn’t hold it and he wasn’t sure why.
“I’m not in any condition to answer that, because I’m still looking for the answer myself,” he said. “I don’t have a clear answer for that. He was serving well. He was making me move a lot. He plays the way he’s always played. He hasn’t changed much. The less he misses, the more he makes your life difficult.”
“I realized I had to be more aggressive,” Coric said. “I had nothing to lose. I knew if I continued to play the way I was playing, I was going to lose anyway. I had to hit the ball harder and deeper.”
In the women’s final, Garcia already was the first qualifier to ever reach the title match and clinched the victory when Kvitova sent a second serve return into the net. Garcia dropped to her knees and lay on her back on the court after the final point.
“Pure joy,” said Garcia, the first French woman to win the tournament. “Just happiness. Every single win is important. Every single title is very special. It’s always very hard to describe it. It’s not happening so often, and you have to really like enjoy it. I’m really grateful for this great week of tennis, and to win another title, it’s very special.”
The 28-year-old has a WTA Tour-leading 27 match victories since June.
The 28th-ranked Kvitova and 35th-ranked Garcia both shook off first-round losses the previous week in Toronto to make their first appearances in a Cincinnati final.
Garcia broke her Czech opponent in the first game, and raced to a 4-0 lead. Garcia also gained an early edge with a first game break in the second set.
Kvitova, 32, left the court for treatment of an injury after falling behind 2-0 in the second set. She looked sharper after returning but couldn’t overcome the early break.
“Definitely not the result I wanted, but … I have to take it like this and see the positive things,” Kviotva said. “I know it’s hurting right now, but on the other side, I have to see it like overall and be proud on my 40th final of my career.” | https://wgnradio.com/sports/garcia-beats-kvitova-to-win-western-southern-title/ | 2022-08-22T14:32:57Z | https://wgnradio.com/sports/garcia-beats-kvitova-to-win-western-southern-title/ | true | 23 |
Jamie Bryson makes formal statement as police begin hunt for caller who threatened his young son
Police have commenced the process of tracing a man who made sexually explicit threats to the safely of Jamie Bryson’s seven-year-old son, the loyalist activist has said.
Mr Bryson said he has this morning (Monday) made a formal statement to the PSNI, and granted police permission to access his phone records to help establish the identity of the caller using a withheld number.
Mr Bryson claims the same caller has targeted him more than 1,300 times, with the threat to his son being made last Thursday evening.
He said: “Following on from my initial complaint to PSNI on Thursday evening, one hour after the telephone threat to sexually abuse my little boy, I have this morning provided the PSNI with a fulsome statement.

“This sets out the full campaign of harassment, threats and abuse. In the past 12 months, it is estimated there have been 1,311 calls. These have all been from unknown numbers.
“The normal outcome is that I would answer the first time, as often various media outlets or public bodies ring from unknown numbers, and after discovering it is the obsessive stalker, I hang up.
“This is usually followed by between 40-50 calls over the subsequent hours. It is not possible to block specific unknown numbers.”
Mr Bryson said police have been provided with the full details, including calls containing death threats against both himself and his family.
“There have also been a number of recordings of these calls handed over to PSNI,” he said.
“In addition to my statement, further statements are being made to PSNI by a range of persons- including by elected representatives- who have been in my company when such calls have been received, and who were able to use their phones to record them.
“In order to expedite the process, and bypass the need for a warrant or other legal process, I have this morning provided the PSNI with authorisation to obtain from my phone provider the call data for the relevant calls with the specified times and dates provided. This will allow the unknown caller’s true identity to be quickly unmasked.”
Mr Bryson said he is extremely grateful “for the cross-community outpouring of support” after he posted an audio recording of the latest threatening phone call on Thursday night.
“There has been a small minority of persons on social media who have disgracefully sought to justify or even question the background to this incident. I do not want to give such persons the credence or acknowledgment of engaging with them.
“Anyone who thinks a threat to sexually assault – until the point of death – a seven year old child can be in anyway mitigated let alone justified is beyond redemption.
“I am also aware of a ‘Twitter space’ recording circulating with vile comments being made, and approvingly endorsed by a person prominent in the Twitter world. All legal options are being considered in relation to this.”
Mr Bryson went on to say: “In all my time in the public arena, this has been without question the most difficult and distressing period. People can abuse me, threaten me and troll me all day long. That has no impact whatsoever.
“However, targeting my little seven year old boy is never going to be tolerable or acceptable. To the anonymous coward behind these calls, I would call on them to come and face me man to man and say those things about my son.
“Or if you do not have the courage to meet me, then reveal your identity and allow society to judge you on the basis of your comments.
“There is no hiding place for the perpetrator. We live in a digital age of an electronic footprint left all over our every engagement via the use of modern technology.
“I hope to engage with the Justice Minister to discuss what I understand to be the ongoing consideration around the need for legislation to combat abuse of public figures, and indeed others.
“I would propose that built into such provisions would be specific aggravating factors – with much broader sentencing powers – such as enhanced custodial sentences for those who target the family of a person based on hostility to political opinion, religious belief or other defined characteristics.
“This would go beyond the pre-existing aggravating factors of targeting a person based on protected characteristics, and create a new specifically defined category of targeting the family of such a person.” | https://www.newsletter.co.uk/news/crime/jamie-bryson-makes-formal-statement-as-police-begin-hunt-for-caller-who-threatened-his-young-son-3814473 | 2022-08-22T14:35:10Z | https://www.newsletter.co.uk/news/crime/jamie-bryson-makes-formal-statement-as-police-begin-hunt-for-caller-who-threatened-his-young-son-3814473 | true | 1 |
A jury could begin deliberations as soon as Monday in the re-trial of two men accused of plotting to kidnap Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
Lawyers are scheduled to give closing arguments today in the trial of Adam Fox and Barry Croft.
This is their second trial on conspiracy charges related to the alleged Whitmer kidnapping plot. The jury deadlocked in their first trial. Two other men involved in the alleged conspiracy were acquitted.
Prosecutors say Fox and Croft took concrete steps to put the plot into action, including surveilling Whitmer’s vacation home and testing weapons.
Defense attorneys say the two would never have acted if they hadn’t been egged on by undercover FBI informants that infiltrated their circle. They’ve argued that the two were entrapped by federal agents.
Both Fox and Croft declined to testify in their own defense during nine-day trial. They face conspiracy to kidnap and conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction charges, which both carry a potential sentence of life in prison.

William and Kate´s new home a `disgraceful´ decision, says Republic
Campaign group Republic has branded the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s relocation to Adelaide Cottage “disgraceful” amid the cost-of-living crisis.
William and Kate are moving to the Grade II-listed four-bedroom house on Windsor’s private Home Park to allow their children – Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis – more freedom when they start at Lambrook School near Ascot in Berkshire next month.
The duke and duchess will retain their 20-room Kensington Palace apartment as their official working residence, and also have the 10-bedroom Anmer Hall country mansion near Sandringham and a three-bedroom holiday cottage, Tam-Na-Ghar, on the Balmoral estate.
Graham Smith, chief executive of the pressure group which campaigns for an elected head of state, said: “While ordinary households are struggling with their energy bills and facing crippling inflation, why are we giving yet another home to William and Kate?
“This is disgraceful.”
He added: “All these palatial homes require round-the-clock protection, heating and staffing.”

He said the Crown Estate was “a state-owned property empire that is supposed to make money for the Treasury”.
Use of the property will be a gift from the Queen, who has given permission for William and Kate to lease it from the Crown Estate, with the couple paying market value rent using their own private funds.
Joe Little, managing editor of Majesty magazine, said the move and the Cambridge children’s new school had many benefits for the family including privacy and security.

“Relocating to Adelaide Cottage in the ultra-private Home Park at Windsor takes away the ‘goldfish-bowl’ aspect of the Cambridge family’s life,” Mr Little said.
“Apartment 1A at Kensington Palace is perfect in so many ways but the duke and duchess and their children are unable to come and go as they might like or take advantage of the nearby London parks because of the ever-present privacy issues.”
He added that having all three children at the same school made sense and would remove the “nightmare” journey from Kensington Palace to Battersea twice a day.
“It also means that the cost of security, always a contentious topic, is much lower than if Louis was at a different school to his siblings,” Mr Little said.

But royal commentator and former BBC royal correspondent Peter Hunt said the decision highlighted how the royal family was not subject to the same economic difficulties as the rest of the nation.
Mr Hunt said: “A fourth home for the Cambridges is a reminder the royals don’t suffer from the cost-of-living crisis and a looming recession in the same way as the rest of us.
“When taxpayers’ money was spent on refurbishing their apartment at Kensington Palace, Prince William, who campaigns for the homeless, insisted his family planned to stay there for many years to come.”
A royal source said William and Kate were “absolutely” mindful of the cost-of-living crisis facing many who would not be able to afford such opportunities.
The source: “It’s something they have thought long and hard about and this is a decision they have not taken lightly.
“It would have been extremely difficult for them to continue on as senior working royals if they were based in Norfolk.”
Kensington Palace (Nicholas T Ansell/PA)
The Crown Estate, which owns property worth around £14.4 billion, is land and property owned by the sovereign but not in the private possession of the Queen.
It is not managed by the Queen, but its income does have some bearing on how much money she is given each year.
Under the Sovereign Grant funding formula, which pays for costs such as royal household salaries, official travel and the upkeep of royal palaces, the Queen receives a percentage of the Crown Estate profits for her official expenditure.
To help pay for a £369 million refurbishment of Buckingham Palace, the percentage of the Crown Estate profits paid to the Sovereign Grant was increased from 15% to 25% for 10 years starting in 2017.
The rest of the profits go to the Treasury. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-11134689/William-Kate-s-new-home-disgraceful-decision-says-Republic.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-08-22T14:43:37Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/pa/article-11134689/William-Kate-s-new-home-disgraceful-decision-says-Republic.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | false | 10 |
2 men shot, killed in separate weekend homicides
Two men were shot to death in separate homicides early Sunday morning in Rochester, according to police.
The first killing occurred around 1:40 a.m. on Olean Street, near South Plymouth Avenue. Lt. Michael Perkowski of the Rochester Police Department said officers were called to the residential road in southwest Rochester after it was reported that someone had been shot. Emergency responders found a man who was shot in the upper body on a sidewalk in front of 162 Olean. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Less than an hour later, officers were called to State Street, near Smith Street, to investigate another shooting roughly 1.5 miles north of Olean Street, Perkowksi said.
Emergency responders arrived on State Street to find "an extremely chaotic scene" with more than 50 people in the street, said RPD Capt. Ryan Tauriello early Sunday. Three people were injured, one fatally, during the incident, an unsanctioned after-hours party at Burrito Urbana, 547 State St., Perkowski said. While patrons were outside the restaurant, some sort of argument led to shooting in the area around 2:30 a.m., he said.
A man in his 20s was shot in the upper body and found on the ground in a nearby parking lot by emergency responders. He was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. A second shooting victim, a man in his 30s, was shot in the lower body and was taken to Strong with injuries that were not considered life-threatening, Perkowski said.
A man who was working at a hotdog cart at the corner of Lyell Avenue and State Street was stabbed following the shooting, as several patrons rushed to the corner, presumably to avoid gunfire. It was not immediately known what preceded the stabbing. The man, who is in his 30s, was taken to Strong Memorial Hospital for treatment.
The killings, which do not appear to be related, marked the 49th and 50th homicides in Rochester this year. No charges have been filed in connection with either slaying.
“Our heart goes out to anybody who had to witness this tonight, or any act of violence that we face here whether it’s in the city or another city," Tauriello said at the State Street scene early Sunday. "We want people to, if they did see something, to come forward and let us know what they saw and what they know."
Rochester saw 81 homicides in 2021 when the Flower City had the fifth-highest homicide rate in the nation. The city is currently averaging a homicide every 4.6 days in 2022.
Anyone with information about either homicide is asked to call 911, RPD's Major Crimes Unit at (585) 428-7157 or CrimeStoppers at (585) 423-9300. | https://www.democratandchronicle.com/story/news/2022/08/22/two-shot-killed-weekend-homicides-rochester-ny/65413071007/ | 2022-08-22T14:43:44Z | https://www.democratandchronicle.com/story/news/2022/08/22/two-shot-killed-weekend-homicides-rochester-ny/65413071007/ | true | 2 |
EAST LANSING, Mich. — Nichole Biber loves to garden.
“This front yard was just grass when we moved here, this is going into our fifth growing season," Biber said. “I'm someone who's had three children. So I know that I'm very good at just doing a little bit at a time, you know.”
Especially when it connects her to her indigenous heritage.
“Monodones is what we collectively refer to the insect as," Biber said. "So it's a little spirit beings, and that's like a connection of like, how that feeds your spirit because when there are many of them around, then you know that balance is intact.”
Biber has been working with the city of East Lansing to make sure the city recognizes Indigenous Peoples' Day.
“My response to that was always what can we do to make sure we're tying the ancestry and the heritage of the people to our ongoing efforts to keep revitalizing our culture and really focusing on the need to include the other beings that are not human that also were displaced,” Biber said.
She's always wanted to do more and even considered a garden. But she was approached with a bigger idea of changing the name of Abbot Road Park to one in the indigenous language of Michigan's three fire people.
“Planning it to be a name in the language, which we say initial Anishinaabemowin, will, I think get people's curiosity going to also have educational opportunities in that park, and also gathering spaces, to sort of take it towards where the realization of like, oh, this is an ongoing relationship, to the history of a place," Biber said.
The city of East Lansing has several places named after Theophilus Abbot, the third president of MAC from 1862-1884 and an English literature professor, with Abbot Road Park being one of them.
So when Biber heard about the idea to change the name, she loved it.
“I think connecting that to the indigenous heritage, those present on these lands, will also elevate that this is a connection to place that we all benefit from when there's a health to the ecosystem," Biber said.
Biber presented the idea to the East Lansing City Council, and they unanimously passed the proposal for Mayor Ron Bacon to create a renaming committee.
“I think we'll spend time there and just think about, like, what it is this space is feeling like and saying," Biber said. "Trust in our intentions of what will be and find the right name for that and our language.”
Biber said she hopes to include educational tools through out the park.
"We do want to incorporate the language as much as possible and connecting that to the different species that are there," Biber said. "It's the sort of education where you keep making connections, you know. You'll see one thing about it and maybe get some background on, like, why this word and how that relates to this particular plant, animal, tree, what have you.”
Biber also wants to restore some of the native plants and wildflowers, while getting rid of invasive species in the park.
“Even as a seed bank, eventually too as part of it, I think would be a nice way for people to kind of take that sense home with them of the, you know," Biber said. "There's a peacefulness, there's a restoration of the place and of the people."
Biber said she hopes to rename the park and start the restoration process of native plants later this year.
“We're looking at Indigenous Peoples' Day," Biber said. "So that's usually somewhere just after the first week of October.”
Biber hopes by changing the name and bringing a sense of honor to the indigenous community in East Lansing, will bring a sense of peace.
“I think that's a very good thing for the entirety of the community, and the mental health benefits that come from that as well," Biber saod. "Also the sense of agency and a much needed sense of hope, as we are all collectively sort of, at the space where a new way needs to be made where we're healing those old wounds and that primary one is the exploitation of the land, but we can steward and we can bring back.”
Abbot Road Park is currently closed due to construction on the Northern Tier Trail. That construction was originally expected to be finished in mid-August but has been extended.
The project originally only included removing and relocation of one section of the trail. It has now been expanded to include the removal and replacement of an additional section of the trail between Abbot and Chandler roads and the Sanderson Drain.
During the time of construction, sections of the trail will be closed, and trail users are advised to pay attention to detour signs and barricades.
The trail project is now expected to be complete by mid-September.

Plant-based chicken is making as much of a splash in 2022 as actual chicken made in 2019 (and 2020, and 2021). Following last fall’s test of faux chicken nuggets, Burger King is testing out something even bigger: the Impossible Original Chick’n Sandwich will debut in Cincinnati this week for a limited time. Ohio, your cup runneth over!
According to a statement sent to The Takeout by Burger King, the Impossible Original Chick’n Sandwich (note the slight spelling change from the original; the apostrophe connotes zero poultry) “features the crispy, juicy taste Guests love, but with a plant -based chicken patty instead—seasoned to perfection [and] topped with shredded lettuce and creamy mayonnaise all on a toasted sesame seed bun.”
Some of fast food’s splashiest plant-based chicken rollouts have seriously impressed us in the past. First, there was the debut of Impossible Chicken Nuggets in 2021, a product that managed to capture the brothy flavor of real cooked poultry and deliver both crunch and chew without tasting springy or spongy. (Burger King tested these nuggets at various locations last fall.) Then, KFC released Beyond Fried Chicken in January 2022; these were essentially nuggets as well, and tasted “pretty spectacular,” according to our taste test.
Both of these, however, were small-format chick’n products. The Impossibe Original Chick’n Sandwich at Burger King will feature a much larger patty, meaning more surface area to load with our favorite toppings and condiments.
Knowing what we know about the nugget version of this product, we anticipate that this sandwich will deliver on big, crackly crunch, which hopefully won’t be dulled by the potential sogginess of mayonnaise and lettuce. Prices will vary by location; while the cost of plant-based alternatives is typically higher at fast food chains (just as they are at grocery stores), inflation-related cost increases on items like meat and poultry are bringing the two categories closer to price parity, and that could mean good things for fake meat’s popularity.
There’s no guarantee that the product will expand beyond its Cincinnati testing sites, but pending a few factors—customer feedback, sales numbers, and operational seamlessness—the sandwich could soon make its way to a Burger King near you. That last part, operational seamlessness, is important: If it’s too labor-intensive to produce the sandwich on a mass scale, that could mean no Impossible Chick’n for the rest of us. Let’s hope the sandwich keeps things simple, just the way we like our real chicken sandwiches. | https://thetakeout.com/burger-king-new-impossible-chicken-sandwich-where-buy-1849440648 | 2022-08-22T14:47:52Z | https://thetakeout.com/burger-king-new-impossible-chicken-sandwich-where-buy-1849440648 | true | 1 |

Would-be carjacker shoots at man with a concealed weapon, suffers critical injuries when CCL holder returns fire
A man with a concealed carry license was sitting in his vehicle on the West Side early Monday when he was fired upon by a man who Chicago police say had apparently been trying to steal the vehicle.
But the 45-year-old vehicle owner instead drew his own concealed handgun and shot the would-be carjacker once in the chest, according to an online media notification from police. The alleged assailant suffered critical injuries, authorities said.
The North Austin shooting happened around 1:30 a.m. Monday, as the 45-year-old sat in his vehicle in the 5500 block of West Crystal Street, according to investigators. Police did not say in what type of vehicle the man had been sitting when the stranger approached him, “produced a handgun and fired shots at the victim.”
After the 45-year-old — who has a valid license to carry a concealed firearm, police said — reportedly shot the aggressor “one time in the upper chest area,” paramedics responded and took the wounded man to Loyola University Medical Center where he had last been listed in critical condition.
It wasn’t immediately clear how many times the wounded man had fired at the 45-year-old, but the victim was not struck and did not suffer any injuries, police said. The would-be carjacker’s gun was found at the scene, according to investigators.
The attempted carjacking and subsequent shooting remain under investigation by detectives.
Monday’s shooting was at least the second time in less than a month in which an attempted vehicle theft resulted in a shooting by a person with a concealed carry license.
A 13-year-old boy was shot by a woman with a concealed carry license July 28 and the boy died Aug. 2 at Comer Children’s Hospital, days after he had been shot once in the neck, police have said.
The two cases share many similarities, with the only significant difference being the CCL holder’s proximity to the person trying to take their property. The woman had been in her Woodlawn home when four or five males allegedly “were attempting to break into a parked vehicle” belonging to her. She came outside, armed, after a neighbor warned her about what was happening on the street.
The 34-year-old woman who owned the vehicle “confronted” the group, “at which time one of (them) pointed a gun at (her),” according to police. The woman, who had a license to carry a concealed gun, fired at least once at the group, hitting Dion Young, 13.
He initially was taken by paramedics to Comer in “fair condition” with a gunshot wound “to the neck area,” but he died days later, officials said.

This dog's mom treats him with a homemade fancy meal. Watch
The video shared on Instagram showcases a pet mom treating her pooch with a homemade fancy meal.
Pet parents are always excited to give treats to their dogs and cats to cheer them up. Mango, an adorable Golden Retriever dog, was craving some fancy food. That is when the pooch's human granted his wish and made him doggo-friendly ‘Aloo Tikkis.’ The video that captures this moment was posted on Instagram and has also created a buzz.
The video was posted on the Instagram page named mangothehappydoggo, which is dedicated to a Golden Retriever named Mango. According to the dog's Instagram bio, he is a 'Pawfessional toy destructor', 'Official taste master of momma’s cooking' and is on Instagram to influence dog food. "Do you think I am spoilt, or I deserve so much love?" read the caption accompanying the video with several hashtags, including #homemadedogfood #dogfoodrecipe, and #dogfoodie.
The video opens to show Mango with a text insert saying, "What happened when I told mom I want a fancy snack." As the video progresses, his mom makes dog-friendly ‘Aloo Tikkis’ using boiled, mashed potatoes, chickpeas, tofu, and cumin seeds. She prepares the dish and feeds it to Mango with love. The video ends with the message asking the viewers to take in pets only if they are willing to treat them like their own family.

Since being shared four weeks ago, the video has garnered over 75,000 likes. It has also received several comments.
"Baby is on high protein and high carbs," wrote an individual with several emoticons. "Definitely deserves every inch of love and more," commented another with heart emoticons. "I totally agree with the last statement. Bring them home only if you are ready to treat them like family members," posted a third. | https://www.hindustantimes.com/trending/this-dog-s-mom-treats-him-with-a-homemade-fancy-meal-watch-101661172194918-amp.html | 2022-08-22T14:56:00Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/trending/this-dog-s-mom-treats-him-with-a-homemade-fancy-meal-watch-101661172194918-amp.html | true | 2 |

Abstract
Many municipalities aim to support the uptake of cycling as an environmentally friendly and healthy mode of transport. It is therefore crucial to meet the demand of cyclists when adapting road infrastructure. Previous studies researching cyclists' route choice behavior deliver valuable insights but are constrained by laboratory conditions, limitations in the number of observations, or the observation period or relay on specific use cases.

The family of a mother missing for a month have paid tribute to a “happy, gentle, thoughtful and kind person” after police confirmed her body has been found.
Madison Wright, 30, of Basildon, Essex, went missing on July 22 wearing a pink top, black trousers and flip-flops.
On Monday, her family said her life has been “stolen” but that her memory “will live on” through her son, after police confirmed a body found in Wat Tyler Country Park near Pitsea on July 30 was Ms Wright.
A statement read: “Madison was the most loving mother, daughter, sister, granddaughter, great-granddaughter, niece, cousin, friend and soon to be aunt.
“Throughout her life Madison was a happy, gentle, thoughtful and kind person. She was never a fan of being the centre of attention and definitely would not have liked this.
“Our family has suffered a loss that is unimaginable and irreparable, and the void Madison leaves will never be filled. Her life has been stolen from not just her but from all of us. Her memory however will live on through her son whom we cherish dearly.
“We will remember every smile, laugh and every moment we had the honour to share.
“We will miss you for the rest of our lives Mad. The love we have for you is beyond words and you will forever be in our hearts.
“Rest in peace Mad, until we meet again.”
The family are receiving support from specialist officers.
Five arrests have been made since the launch of the large-scale murder investigation led by Kent and Essex Serious Crime Directorate.
Gary Bennett, 36, has been charged with murder, while a 27-year-old man and a 54-year-old man, both from Basildon, were taken into custody.
Ms Wright’s car, a black Vauxhall Astra with the registration EU13 JVW, was found on July 26, four days after her disappearance in Brackendale Avenue, Basildon.
Detectives are continuing to investigate to determine the circumstances around her death
Essex Police want to speak to anyone who has information but has not yet come forward, in particular anyone who saw Ms Wright or her car between 8.30am on July 22 and Tuesday July 26.
Officers are also appealing for CCTV, dashcam or other footage. | https://www.expressandstar.com/news/uk-news/2022/08/22/family-of-missing-mother-found-dead-pays-tribute-to-gentle-and-kind-person/ | 2022-08-22T14:58:54Z | https://www.expressandstar.com/news/uk-news/2022/08/22/family-of-missing-mother-found-dead-pays-tribute-to-gentle-and-kind-person/ | false | 10 |

SF expected to start intradermal injections, receive 1,600 vials from latest federal supply
For the first time, San Francisco is adopting a new injection method to stretch very vial of the Monkeypox vaccine---getting five doses out of each vial. The city will start intradermal injections---which injects the vaccine between layers of the skin instead of a full dose.
It's unknown when that method will start.
The city's health department recently announced it will be receiving 1,600 vials of the Monkeypox vaccine from the latest federal supply.
San Francisco is reporting more than 600 cases. Alameda and Santa Clara counties have more than 100 cases each.
The clinic is open for walk-ins from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. this week as long as supply lasts.

Santa Clara Co. now administering up to 5x more monkeypox vaccines
Health officials in Santa Clara County say they are now vaccinating more people who are at the highest risk of getting monkeypox. It's because of changes in rules by the Food and Drug Administration that will allow them to stretch out their supply.
Before, the vaccines were injected subcutaneously, or under the skin. Now they're being injected intradermally, just under the top layer of skin.
County health experts say this method helps stretch the vaccine supply.
"Only 1/5 as much of the dose is used for that intradermal injection compared to the full dose that was used before," said Dr. Jennifer Tong, associate chief medical officer Santa Clara Valley Medical Center of Santa Clara County. "This was approved by the FDA based on a study that was done a few years ago."

SF monkeypox vaccine clinic expanded to meet demand
The San Francisco Department of Public Health announced Monday that they will expand the hours of their walk-in monkeypox vaccine clinic by doubling those hours.
Instead of being open from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m., their clinic at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital will stay open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday, as long as supply allows.
"We are expanding hours of this vaccine clinic, we are now going to be able to double the amount of time that we're offering vaccine at this clinic," said San Francisco Director of Health Dr. Grant Colfax.
This comes as San Francisco's total case number of 563 makes up more than a quarter of California's total case count of nearly 2,000.
Colfax says even though the lines lacing around the hospital have started to die down, their work is far from over as demand remains high.
They're now averaging 600 to 700 vaccines a day.

Zuckerberg SF General vaccine clinic reopens with shorter lines as Bay Area counties prepare for new way to administer shots
The vaccine clinic at Zuckerberg San Francisco General reopened at 8 a.m. for walk-ins. On Wednesday, they gave out more than 700 doses -- and the lines were much shorter.
Many Bay Area counties are preparing to change the way the vaccine is administered.
ABC7 News told you earlier this week about the new recommendation from the FDA to give people one-fifth of a full dose. The smaller shot has to be administered in a different way, between layers of skin, rather than under the skin. That requires special training.
Marin County Public Health Officer Dr. Matt Willis was among those from across the state who took part in a call to discuss the change. He said, "The main topic of that meeting was how this might roll out across the state. This is going to be a gamer changer for us. If we really can use five doses per vial instead of one."
One concern - health officials say they don't know if the vaccine will work as well. It will be at least several days until most counties make the switch.

On Tuesday afternoon, State Senator Scott Wiener held a special hearing about the monkeypox outbreak in California. He thinks the state can continue to do more to address the growing crisis. There are now over 500 cases just in San Francisco alone. Some of the things Wiener is asking for include: His team has submitted a $38.5 million emergency state budget request to help support local public health departments. He's also asking for regulatory changes that would allow county and community clinics to use COVID funding to help them address the monkeypox crisis locally. Specifically, they could then use COVID funding for things like monkeypox testing, outreach, etc. And, of course, he's calling on federal partners to manufacture and send more vaccines to the state of California as soon as possible.

Sen. Wiener calls for monkeypox state of emergency
Senator Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) released a statement calling on San Francisco and California to declare a state of emergency due to the growing monkeypox outbreak:
"Monkeypox is a public health crisis, and we need to treat it as such. In San Francisco alone, we have 222 cases - one of the highest rates in the United States. Given that spread and that Monkeypox is now being detected in our sewage, we know that cases are high and will continue to grow. Monkeypox is painful and isolating, and no one should have to experience it.
"Unfortunately, because our federal government failed to act quickly to acquire the vaccine supplies needed to prevent an outbreak, we are now in a public health emergency that is only going to escalate. Given that gay and bi men and trans people are the most impacted, it's sadly becoming clear that we are being left behind once again.
"That's why I'm calling on San Francisco and California to declare a State of Emergency. State of Emergency declarations will create significant flexibility around testing, contracting for services, and administration of vaccinations. It will allow us to use all the resources in our power to contain the outbreak. Right now, we don't have enough vaccines or testing, and we need flexibility to expand access to both. We have no time to waste: this is happening now, it's serious, and we need to do everything we can to contain it."

Abstract
BACKGROUND: This study aims at investigation of the effectiveness of selfcompassiontraining on parenting stress of mothers with visually impairedchildren.METHODS: This is a quasi-experimental study with pretest-posttest interventionand a control group. The statistical population of the study included motherswith visually impaired children in Isfahan. Thirty mothers between eighteenand forty years old were selected using purposefully and convenient sampling.Subjects were matched in two groups of 15 intervention and control membersbased on the pre-test score of parenting stress. The intervention group receivedself-compassion training intervention for eight weeks and the control group didnot receive training during this period and was placed on a waiting list. Thequestionnaire used in this study was the parenting stress index. The findingswere analyzed using analysis of covariance by SPSS-23 software.RESULTS: The results showed that self-compassion training significantly reducedparenting stress in the experimental group compared to the control group (P=0.002). Also, in terms of parenting stress in childhood, the mean scores inthe experimental group decreased significantly after intervention compared tothe control group (P=0.018). In terms of parenting stress among parents, themean scores in the experimental group decreased significantly after interventioncompared to the scores in the control group (P=0.0001).CONCLUSION: Since parenting is associated with stress and parents of visuallyimpaired children suffer more stress, self-compassion training can play animportant role in reducing their parenting stress.

There’s no such thing as a Maryland liberal. Terms like “California liberal” or “Massachusetts liberal” are well known (and, depending on whom you ask, pejorative) terms in the American political lexicon. But “Maryland liberal”? Not so much. It sounds clunky and sort of hilarious. This could all change if Maryland decides to veer left and elect Heather Mizeur, a wonky, pro-pot married lesbian, as governor.
Heather Mizeur has just finished explaining everything, seemingly every public policy issue, in exacting detail to a group of surprisingly still-awake seniors and stray nearby supporters at the Springwell Senior Living Community in Baltimore City. We’re talking: criminal justice reform, drug policy reform, tax cuts, tax hikes, school construction policy, wages, fracking, campaign finance, health care, more health care, family planning, corporate tax loopholes, universal pre-kindergarten, and marriage equality, to name a few. Mizeur, a two-term member of the Maryland House of Delegates, brings to bear her encyclopedic memory of acronyms and best practices research from across the country (“Five states across the country have tried this… Georgia, of all places, did this… In Oregon there was a program to… This has worked in Kentucky….”) She’s smart, maybe too smart. She speaks in thick paragraphs that her staffers probably wish they could condense and sharpen at times.
The assembled crowd of about 50 in this Northwest Baltimore retirement castle have been receptive to her pitch. They stay well into the evening hours, applauding her policy planks at regular intervals. There’s no sign, at least visibly, that this elderly crowd would have any hesitation about supporting a platform to legalize marijuana, presented by a 41-year-old lesbian whose short hair and flowing arm and hand gestures whiff of an even younger, star Ph.D. student preparing for her oral exam. It’s a welcome sign for a campaign that’s banking on the premise of an emboldened, cross-demographic progressive electorate to put her in the governor’s mansion this November.
But November is hardly the problem in Maryland, a blue-as-can-be, one-party state. June’s Democratic primary is the more pressing concern. And in that three-way field, she’s either running in third or a tie for second, depending on how flexibly one applies margins of error. Let’s call it a tie for second, because both she and the state’s deeply ambitious but gaffe-prone Attorney General, Doug Gansler, who is running on a platform to roll back certain tax increases, are currently well in the rear view mirror of Lieutenant Governor Anthony Brown, whom the state party establishment has anointed. There’s no question, though, that Mizeur is running on the most left-wing platform of the bunch.
And so after a couple of policy questions, someone in the group asks that most annoying of all political questions: “How can you actually win this election?”
“By all you going out and voting for me on June 24th!” she says.
She rattles off a couple of well-rehearsed caveats about her standing in the polls: the primary is months away, so few voters are paying attention; she’s barely even begun to spend her (admittedly limited, public-finance matched) campaign funds; she’s the “only candidate” gaining in the polls while her opponents are “either losing or holding their percentages.” That last one is true, but her gain has still only been from 5 to 10 percent. She cites a Baltimore Sun editorial about this still being a “wide-open race.”
Right now, the race between Mizeur, Gansler and Brown to replace outgoing two-termer Martin O’Malley is, boringly, about name recognition. And Mizeur is the only of the three who doesn’t hold a statewide-elected position. Whether this lefty is able to claw her way to the top in the home stretch, Bill de Blasio style, is a test of how progressive—not just Democratic-voting—the state has become in recent years.
“Maryland has this reputation of being ‘blue on paper,’” she says, but not really “doing much” with that status to lead the country in progressive innovation. The state’s political debate in recent decades instead has revolved around the mundane issue of slot machines. But that’s started to change in recent years, as the state legislature has passed a number of high-profile pieces of liberal legislation.
This transformation hasn’t happened because of a progressive awakening in the state, yet. Instead, it’s largely because Governor Martin O’Malley is contemplating a presidential run. This means positioning himself and his priorities in a way that would appeal to Democratic primary voters nationwide in 2016. And so, in recent legislative sessions, the Maryland General Assembly has passed and he has signed into law bills legalizing same-sex marriage, instituting a state-level “Dream Act” offering in-state tuition to certain undocumented immigrants, putting in place strong “common-sense gun safety measures,” and repealing the death penalty. Both the same-sex marriage and Dream Act measures were upheld by surprisingly strong margins in statewide referenda on the 2012 general election ballot.
Mizeur’s career in state government has entirely overlapped with the O’Malley administration. She was elected to the House of Delegates in 2006, the same year O’Malley became governor, representing the ultra-crunchy left-wing Washington suburb of Takoma Park. And the theory behind her campaign to succeed O’Malley is that Maryland voters are more progressive than their elected officials have given them credit for.
“There was a stiffening of the spine, if you will, of a lot of Democrats that in their heart wanted to be in support of things that they weren’t sure the electorate was for,” Mizeur says in an interview. “And once we saw the sleeping lion wake up in that 2012 election cycle, where they had their say and it was very clear where the support of Democratic voters were on progressive policy issues in our state, that created an opportunity for getting additional things done in the following session.”
“I think that there is a growing sense among progressive activists in this state that our time has come,” she says, pointing to the success of Bill de Blasio’s 2013 election as mayor of New York City as a model. “Bill de Blasio wasn’t the guy with the money, wasn’t the guy who was running well [early] in the polls, wasn’t the guy that anyone thought could win, but he was the person that was running on his core values, and excited the people, and pulled this thing off,” she says. “And I think that there have been a lot of similarities between the kind of campaign that he ran in New York and that we set out from day one to run here in Maryland.”
Her platform, then, contains nearly every next-wave energizing idea in liberal politics—the sort of stuff that, she thinks, by 2016 or 2020 will be a necessary on Democratic presidential candidates’ primary platforms.
The central item is a plan to legalize and tax marijuana and use the receipts to fund a pricey universal pre-kindergarten program. She wants to increase the minimum wage up to a living wage—$16.70/hour and indexed to inflation—gradually by 2022. She’s outspoken on environmental issues and has fought the fracking industry in natural-gas rich Western Maryland. In the criminal justice system, Mizeur wants to eliminate mandatory minimum drug sentences and replace the cash bail system with a risk-assessment program. She would reinstate the state’s lapsed “millionaire’s tax” on upper-income earners and give a modest income tax cut to everyone else; similarly, she’d fund tax rebates for small businesses with the revenue derived from closing the “combined reporting” loophole that allows certain large companies to avoid paying the state’s corporate income tax. On health care, her immediate goals are to put in place a series of measures to make Medicaid enrollment smoother. By 2017, though, she intends to make use of an innovation waiver for which states will be eligible to “look at ways to go above and beyond what was ever laid out as a vision for health reform under the Affordable Care Act”—meaning, perhaps, eliminating the insurance “middleman” altogether.
In fact, of all the issues that launch her into long, wonky policy speeches—and there are more than a few of them—health care reigns supreme.
You could see her perk up, for example, at a late February candidates’ forum in Bowie, Maryland. About 20 members of a local synagogue were getting an extraordinary amount of attention from a total of four Democratic and Republican gubernatorial candidates (Mizeur and Gansler were there, Brown wasn’t.) Amid a number of cranky questions about why the gas tax was so damn high or why it’s so friggin’ hard to get from Annapolis to Baltimore, an upper-middle-aged woman named Marla asked about her long-term care insurance plan. She said her premiums have started to go up 15-20% a year and now she’s worried she won’t pay able to keep it.
Mizeur didn’t even wait for Marla to finish the question. “I know, I know—I was a health care policy specialist in the private sector and in my time in Congress, I know about this.” She explained that insurers offering these long-term care plans “take your money while you’re healthy” and then jack up premiums once you “start to reach an age where you might use this, hoping you’ll drop your plan.” She discussed a few consumer protection measures she’s either sponsored or working on. (She has seemingly either sponsored or is working on a bill on everything.)
Health care policy is the issue that landed her where she is today.
She was born in the downstate Illinois town of Blue Mound in 1972 and still carries traces of the Midwest in her voice. Her father worked for Caterpillar and was a member of the United Auto Workers. Mizeur vividly describes her father taking her, when she was 9 years old, to the picket line of a six-month strike, and she claims that early taste of solidarity formed her political worldview.
After attending from the University of Illinois (where she came out of the closet) she worked on Capitol Hill, eventually working her way up to be John Kerry’s domestic policy advisor. From that perch she drafted much of Kerry’s 2004 health care plan.
While she enjoyed working with Kerry on health care—“He was willing to take risks at that time that others weren’t willing to take”—she was ready to test out her own set of progressive beliefs in her own political career. And after a stint on the Takoma Park city council and two terms in the House of Delegates, she’s testing them out for the first time statewide.
But any story about statewide Democratic politics in Maryland nowadays is, in part, about Governor Martin O’Malley: what he’s done in Maryland, what he wants to do after Maryland, and what Maryland wants to do after him. And Mizeur wants to be the liberal true believer to O’Malley’s liberal opportunist.
Her attitude towards O’Malley is formally polite, appreciative of certain actions, but overall, cool. Some of this is put on. The frontrunner she’s trying to bring down, Brown, is O’Malley’s lieutenant governor and heir apparent. It is not in her political interest, then, to go out of her way praising the O’Malley-Brown administration. Even on issues where O’Malley did the “right” things—signing marriage equality, “common-sense gun safety restrictions,” the Dream Act—she’s quicker to credit an emboldened General Assembly for pushing him into making the right decision.
“Governor O’Malley didn’t start out supporting marriage equality,” she says, matter-of-factly. “He was one of these ‘marriage is between a man and a woman’ guys when I was first elected.”
She pauses to take a more cutting approach. “And it wasn’t lost on us that New York succeeded [in legalizing same-sex marriage first], and Governor Cuomo and Governor O’Malley are contemporaries, competing for a potential national stage.” She’s alluding to a fairly widely accepted public theory that O’Malley only became a full-throated advocate of legalizing same-sex marriage after his possible 2016 presidential primary rival, Andrew Cuomo, enhanced his own standing by pushing it through his legislature.
Is Mizeur saying that when O’Malley’s acted on these high-profile issues, it’s been for presidential political purposes?
“I don’t want to speculate.”
Her road to victory still will be tough, though. While polls suggest some 40 percent of Democratic primary voters are still undecided, Brown has a commanding 20 or so percent lead over Mizeur and Gansler, despite his involvement in the state’s disastrous rollout of its Obamacare healthcare exchange. The incumbent Lieutenant Governor also has the support of most of the prominent Democratic establishment players and voting blocs. As Mizeur admits, it is a state with a reputation for nominating the “next guy in line,” and that’s Brown.
Even those who think highly of Mizeur as a candidate think that name recognition alone will be enough to doom her chances.
“Mizeur is a strong candidate with an even stronger future in the party,” says Thomas Schaller, a political science professor at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, and a columnist for the Baltimore Sun. “I expect her to be a statewide nominee at some point down the line.
“But she’s at least one cycle ahead of her time: Not because she lacks the skills or a natural constituency among Maryland liberals—she has both, in fact. But because, as is almost always the case, statewide Democratic primaries in blue Maryland are crowded affairs and tough to win. And frankly, the difficulties facing House Delegates in their effort to win a Democratic gubernatorial nomination are similar to those of U.S. House members trying to win presidential nominations: Their platform is too small.”
But while Mizeur may have a small platform, she’s hoping that fellow Marylanders share her bold vision for the Old Line State to become that progressive haven on the Chesapeake that it’s always wanted to be, if only it weren’t so buttoned up. Not just a state that passes cutting-edge liberal legislation after New York has tested the waters, but a national leader.
“For too long my frustration has been that Maryland sits back and sees, ‘How does this play out in other states?’ before aligning ourselves with these approaches,” she says. “And I think that we really can be a leader in establishing a new dialogue on a range of progressive policy issues that can bring about transformational change for our communities.”
The question is whether Maryland Democrats are ready to get that fired up about policy that they elect a liberal underdog. The state’s Democratic primary, tantamount to a general election in the dark blue state, is June 24. | https://www.thedailybeast.com/could-a-pro-pot-lesbian-become-the-next-governor-of-maryland | 2022-08-22T15:19:57Z | https://www.thedailybeast.com/could-a-pro-pot-lesbian-become-the-next-governor-of-maryland | false | 1 |
CHERRY HILL, N.J. (AP) — A horror movie convention promoter says it is assisting authorities following charges against actor Gary Busey involving alleged sexual offenses at an event in New Jersey earlier this month.
Busey, 78, was charged Friday with two counts of fourth-degree criminal sexual contact, one count of attempted criminal sexual contact and one count of harassment following alleged actions Aug. 12-14 at the Monster Mania Convention at the Doubletree Hotel in the Philadelphia suburb of Cherry Hill, police said Saturday.
Monster-Mania Convention said in a Facebook post that after attendees complained, an unspecified “celebrity guest was removed from the convention and instructed not to return.”
“Monster-Mania also encouraged the attendees to contact the police to file a report,” the company said, adding that behavior that compromised the safety and well-being of attendees would not be tolerated. “Monster-Mania will continue to assist the authorities in any and every way possible,” it said.
“It was about contact. It was about touching,” Lt. Robert Scheunemann told The Philadelphia Inquirer of the muliple complaints police had received about Busey’s conduct.
Busey, who lives in Malibu, California, was scheduled as a featured guest for all three days of the event.
Police did not immediately respond to a message seeking details. It also wasn’t clear whether Busey has an attorney to comment on the charges, and a representative didn’t immediately return a message seeking comment Saturday.
Busey is widely known as a character actor, largely in supporting roles, though he came to attention and was nominated for an Oscar for best actor for playing the title role in the 1978 film “The Buddy Holly Story.” | https://myfox8.com/news/entertainment/ap-entertainment/horror-film-convention-promoter-speaks-after-busey-charges/ | 2022-08-22T15:20:57Z | https://myfox8.com/news/entertainment/ap-entertainment/horror-film-convention-promoter-speaks-after-busey-charges/ | false | 77 |

William and Kate to move family out of London to give children 'normal' life
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are set to move their family out of London during school term time, in a bid to give their children a "normal" family life, a royal source told CNN.
The decision to move the children's school was announced by Kensington Palace in a statement on Monday.
According to the royal source, Prince William, Kate and their children will live in Adelaide Cottage, a four-bedroom house in the grounds of Windsor Castle, Berkshire, about 25 miles from London. The move will bring the family closer to both Queen Elizabeth II, who also resides in Windsor Castle, and Kate's family, who live in the same county.
The Cambridges' current residence, Kensington Palace, will remain the family's principal residence, however, according to the royal source.
There are currently no plans for any live-in help, the source told CNN, adding that arrangements could be made for a nanny on the estate.
According to the statement, the couple's three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, will all move to Lambrook School, a prestigious fee-paying school near Windsor.
The school is described on its website as a "leading coeducational Prep School for 615 boys and girls aged 3 and 13, set in 52 acres of beautiful Berkshire countryside."
In the palace statement, the school's headmaster, Jonathan Perry, said: "We are delighted that Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis will be joining us this coming September and very much look forward to welcoming the family, as well as all of our new pupils, to our school community."
William and Kate thanked their children's former school in London, Thomas's Battersea, expressing their gratitude for the "happy start" it gave George and Charlotte.
In the same statement, Ben Thomas, principal of Thomas's London Day Schools, thanked Charlotte and George "for upholding the school's values and for their many contributions to school life," wishing them good luck at their new school.
The royal source told CNN that the move will allow William and Kate to be "active parents in a busy school."
"They want to be as normal a family as possible," the source added.
The move will also give the young family greater privacy at home due to the high security presence on the Queen's estate.
The Cambridges moved their family to London in 2017, having been based in Norfolk, eastern England, for several years. Until that point, the pair used Apartment 1A at Kensington Palace as their official residence while carrying out royal duties.

Edinburgh has now reached day five of a series of bin strikes that have now seen the city become sprawling with junk across its picturesque streets.
The strike action, due to go on till August 30, began after unions rejected a "pathetic" 3.5% pay increase was offered from COSLA for waste workers.
However, COSLA's latest pay increase offer came in at last Friday (August 19) at 5 per cent, with unions now considering the deal but noting it is below the rate of inflation.
The capital is currently at its busiest point of the year with Fringe goers, tourists and locals alike piling into the streets to take in what the city has to offer during the Festival Fringe.

Streets are in an increasingly desperate state as waste has now climbed out of the rammed bins and can now be seen sprayed all over pavements and roads.
The bin strikes is the first of series of protests which will run until August 30, however residents in Edinburgh may not get their rubbish picked up until August 28 should the strikes continue.

Yesterday we reported more images which showed piling up in the Old Town to which our readers expressed their dismay at the current situation.
One user bubblybet commented: "Passed princes Street on the 113 today, absolutely disgusting. I blame the people, they can see a bin is full but continue to cram rubbish in, totally embarrassed by the mess.
Dom1916 said: "Pay the boys the right money. It’s a total p*** take what they’re on."
Pablo McAteer added: "Edinburgh’s shame for all the world to see."
The situation has now led to calls for the Scottish Government to intervene with the current strike action.
The Daily Record reports that Tory MSP Miles Brigss has said: "The SNP Government must now intervene to prevent international embarrassment for Edinburgh and Scotland.
"The rubbish piling up on our streets risks damaging our city's reputation. These annual festivals are supposed to be a source of pride, not humiliation.
"The SNP Government must get around the table and fix this before it's too late. They cannot stand by and watch while a situation that they created by giving councils a poor funding settlement spirals out of control."
Nicola Sturgeon has spoken out following COSLA's 5% pay offer saying: "We’ve provided more resources to local authorities to try to facilitate a fairer pay deal and I’m glad to see that C has now put on the table a 5% pay offer and I hope that now paves the way to these issues being resolved.” | https://www.edinburghlive.co.uk/news/edinburgh-news/edinburghs-shame-world-see-readers-24822815 | 2022-08-22T15:27:00Z | https://www.edinburghlive.co.uk/news/edinburgh-news/edinburghs-shame-world-see-readers-24822815 | false | 1 |
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (WGHP) — Soccer legend Hope Solo opened up about her DWI arrest and subsequent time at an alcohol treatment facility on her podcast on Thursday.
“About four-and-a-half months ago I made the biggest mistake of my life,” Solo began the podcast by stating. “I let alcohol get the better of me in a decision that I will never live down, a decision that has come at a great cost to me and my family.”
Solo pled guilty to DWI charges in the Forsyth County District Court on July 25 and was given a 24-month suspended sentence by Judge Victoria L. Roemer. Solo spent 30 days at an in-patient facility, Hope Valley Inc., as well.
“The reality of what this meant was horrific,” Solo said. “The embarrassment, the shame, the financial loss, the thought of explaining this to my children when they are old enough to search the internet.”
In the podcast, Solo goes on to describe the difficulty she and her husband, ex-NFL player Jerramy Stevens, had with the birth of their children during the start of the pandemic in early March 2020. Their twin children spent 20 days in the NICU.
Solo also detailed that she spent over a year and a half at home while she was quarantined and breastfeeding her children. She explained that after moving from Washington to North Carolina to raise their children, she and Stevens “had no support system and now had two tiny babies.”
“We had children and nobody to share them with,” Solo explained. “Our family and friends do not live in North Carolina, and most of them live on the other side of the country.”
She goes on to describe the exhaustion she felt being a full-time mother and the comfort she began to take in alcohol.
“Winding down with a drink was nice, and it’s what we looked forward to doing,” Solo says. “And the drinking slowly increased. We found that eased the stresses of our everyday lives, and we felt that we had the right to do so. We never drank and drove, we never went in public and we woke up every morning to handle our business.”
Solo explained that she was foolish to think that she had things under control and that the isolation of being across the country began to wear on her despite her choosing to isolate herself.
Solo says that she did not return to her OB-GYN for post-natal care and she was ignorant of the symptoms of postpartum depression.
“My sense of strength and pride became my two worst enemies, and I found myself living the worst night of my life,” Solo explained, adding that she “let alcohol get the better of me” on the day she was arrested.
While in treatment, Solo said she journaled about her history with drugs and alcohol. She noted that though she would not drink or smoke marijuana before events, she would “whether in celebration mode or in coping mode.”
Solo also identified an issue she had with drinking more during times of high levels of stress and anxiety, including her time on “Dancing with the Stars.”
“Like being on a live dancing show in front of millions or huge speaking engagements,” Solo said. “My manager, my agent, my husband and friends all knew to bring wine or champagne to help me loosen up on stage.”
Solo described how she and her husband struggled with full-time parenting and the strain it caused on their personal time with each other.
“We found that our only time together was having a drink once the babies went to bed, and that’s when we started to go down a dangerous road both for our marriage and me personally,” Solo said.
Solo concluded the podcast with this final sentiment.
“Today, I am grateful for my 30 days away, to read, think, pray, meditate and learn, reading and meditation feeds my soul, so does seeing family and friends.” Solo explained. “I realize now my soul was slowly starved and it was all my fault for trying to be strong for my family and being prideful. In my strength I was weak, there is no shame if we struggle with alcohol and addiction.”
In addition to her sentencing, Solo was ordered to pay $2,500 in fines and a $600 fee for the cost of lab tests.
Solo made 202 appearances with the national team, with 153 wins and an international record of 102 shutouts. She won a World Cup title and two Olympic gold medals with the team during a laudable playing career that was also marred by controversy.
After questioning coach Greg Ryan’s decision to start Briana Scurry against Brazil during the 2007 World Cup, comments many saw as a slight against Scurry, Solo was benched.
Solo also was involved in an altercation with family members in 2014 that resulted in her arrest, although charges in that case were eventually dropped.
In 2015, Solo was suspended for 30 days after she and Stevens were pulled over in a van owned by U.S. Soccer. Stevens was charged with a DUI.
Solo was dismissed from the national team following the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics after calling the Swedish team “cowards” for taking a defensive stance against the defending gold medalists, ultimately ending her career.
She was elected to the U.S. Soccer Hall of Fame in January. The induction ceremony was set for May 21, but the Winston-Salem Journal previously reported that Solo requested that the ceremony be delayed until next year.
