Chandigarh, August 22
The Tricity Cab Association has demanded action against unauthorised cab and bike aggregator companies and those operating private vehicles as cabs and bike taxis in the city.
In a memorandum to the State Transport Authority (STA), members of the association stated that private cars and bikes were attached illegally with cab and bike aggregator companies and operating as bike taxi and taxi cab. They requested the STA to take action against them as these were not registered in UT.
Vikram Singh, an office-bearer of the association, said unauthorised cab and bike aggregator companies were operating in Chandigarh and private cars and bikes were also operating in the region as taxi cab and bike taxi. He demanded action against them.
According to information, only the cabs attached with the OLA and Uber firms, which have obtained aggregator licence from the STA, are allowed to do business in the city. No aggregator licence has been granted by the STA to any company to operate bike taxis in the city. | https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/chandigarh/association-seeks-action-against-unauthorised-cabs-bike-taxis-424406 | 2022-08-23T02:32:50Z | https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/chandigarh/association-seeks-action-against-unauthorised-cabs-bike-taxis-424406 | false | null |
The LFO Lady Warriors had two games at the Northwest Georgia FCA Tournament rained out on Friday, but they were able to get in a pair of games on Saturday and finished with a split.
The Red-and-White gave Villa Rica a battle for seven innings before falling, but they would bounce back with a victory over Northwest Whitfield, avenging a loss to the Lady Bruins earlier this month.
VILLA RICA 4, LFO 2
The game was scoreless until the top of the fifth when Khloe Osborne drove in a run on a ground out.
But a solid Lady Wildcat squad scored four times in the bottom of the sixth and LFO's solo run in the top of the seventh was not enough. Skylar Phillips led off the final inning with a double and pinch runner Mylee Howard would come around on an error.
Lakely Parish went 2 for 3 at the plate, while Tot Long had a single and stole a base. Parish also pitched six innings of six-hit ball. She allowed four earned runs with two walks and six strikeouts.
LFO 7, NORTHWEST 6
LFO got the tying run in the bottom of the fourth and the go-ahead run in the fifth to battle back from an early deficit after the Lady Bruins hit three consecutive home runs in the top of the first inning.
The tying run scored on a double steal as Breonn Newbille was able to swipe home following a throwdown to second base with runners on the corners.
After pitcher Breanna Johnson was able to strand three Northwest runners in the top of the fifth to keep the game tied, Lexi Downey was hit by a pitch in the bottom of the inning and moved to second on a bunt by Julie Shore. Moments later, Downey raced home on a Britni Newbille RBI-single.
Johnson pitched 5.1 innings of relief, scattering six hits and two walks, but allowing just two earned runs and striking out two batters. Carlee Wilson went 2 for 3 at the plate and scored a run, while Long drove in a pair of runs.
LFO (3-6-1) will start Region 6-AAA play at home on Tuesday against LaFayette.

Lorde has told fans that she has “kept working” since her ‘Solar Power’ tour ended this summer, hinting that she’s making progress on new music.
The singer released her third album last August and has since taken it on North American, UK and European tours, stopping at Glastonbury and beyond. On the one year anniversary of the album’s announcement in June, she thanked fans for their support, and called criticism of the album “confounding and at times painful to sit with”.
To mark the one year anniversary of the album’s release, Lorde released a new video for its closing track, ‘Oceanic Feeling’, and updated them on her movements since the ‘Solar Power’ tour ended.
“I write to you from summer’s end,” her message began. “I can’t believe it’s almost gone. Normally in these months, my whole life is lived in deference to the season. I wake up and the weather decides what I’ll do. I spend long days outside. Swims come first, and everything else in my calendar arranges itself around them. This year, the summer’s been like a movie playing in the background.”
She went on: “I’ve kept working pretty much since tour ended, spending long days in a dark room, my brain buzzing like a fluorescent tube, eyes watering when I step back into the light.”
The comments come after Lorde said back in June that she’s “getting nearer” to writing nothing but “bangers” again.
‘Solar Power’ saw the artist move away from the all out euphoria of 2017’s ‘Melodrama’ to create something more introspective and delicate. Speaking at the third and final night of her residency at London’s Roundhouse in early June, Lorde revealed she’d been “thinking about bangers.”
“It’s so interesting to me how writing a big, bright pop song has been the thing that’s defined my life. This thing I started trying to do when I was 14-years-old because I would turn on the radio and love that feeling, what it did to me. It became like an addiction, I just wanted to keep trying to construct the perfect thing that would hit you in the heart emotionally, over three-and-a-half minutes,” she explained.
NME gave Lorde’s ‘Solar Power’ five stars in a review last year, calling it “a dazzling hat-trick from a master of her craft.”
“This is an album that grows in quiet stature with every listen, new nuggets of wisdom making their way to the surface, peeking through its beautiful instrumentation that weaves a stunning, leafy tapestry,” the review said. | https://www.nme.com/en_asia/news/music/lorde-has-kept-working-since-her-solar-power-tour-ended-3295393 | 2022-08-23T02:39:02Z | https://www.nme.com/en_asia/news/music/lorde-has-kept-working-since-her-solar-power-tour-ended-3295393 | false | 4 |
No closure of local and interstate roads of Armenia is planned in connection with Azerbaijan- Nakhijevan transit. NSS
YEREVAN, AUGUST 22, ARMENPRESS. The news circulating in the mass media and social platforms that in the case of a possible transit trip by road transport through the territory of the Republic of Armenia from the Republic of Azerbaijan to the Autonomous Republic of Nakhichevan and in the opposite direction, the roads of local and international importance in the Republic of Armenia will be closed during the transit, which will hinder the free movement of the citizens of Armenia, does not correspond to reality, ARMENPRESS reports the National Security Service of Armenia said.
3 new checkpoints will be opened by the Government decision, which will allow the citizens of Azerbaijan to travel to Autonomous Republic of Nakhichevan from Azerbaijan. “Currently, the possible transit routes and procedure are being developed, in which no closure and/or other restrictions are planned for the movement of the Armenian population or foreigners, as well as their vehicles, by any local and/or international (interstate) roads”, NSS Armenia clarified. | https://www.armenpress.am/eng/news/1090830/ | 2022-08-23T02:40:41Z | https://www.armenpress.am/eng/news/1090830/ | false | null |

Murphy shot a five-over par 40.
Zoey Hupp and Alivia Brewster of Blanchester both had season-best scores.
“Another night where Zoey and Alivia recorded their lowest scores of the season and were able to gain valuable match experience,” Blanchester coach Jamey Grogg said. “I am so appreciative of the other coaches who continue to play matches against us despite the fact that we do not have a full team, as it continues to help us improve in so many ways.”

Dana White’s Contender Series is back for its fifth season.
The show, which continues on its home on ESPN+, aims to give top prospects a chance to impress the UFC brass in an attempt to earn a contract with the company. The show’s second episode of the season takes place on Aug. 23 and streams live on ESPN+ starting at 8 p.m. ET.
HW: Eduardo Neves (5-0, Eduardo Machado Team, Brazil) vs. Michael Parkin (4-0, The Dungeon BJJ, England)
WW: Amiran Gogoladze (10-2, 13 Legion, Georgia) vs. Darrius Flowers (8-2, Elite Boxing Academy, USA)
FLY: Erisson Ferreira (11-1, Eduardo Machado Team, Brazil) vs. Jesus Aguilar (7-1, AVT, USA)
BW: Cameron Saaiman (5-0, Team CIT, South Africa) vs. Josh Wang-Kim (5-1, International Self Defense, USA)
WSW: Rayanne Amanda (11-5, Marajo Brothers Team, Brazil) vs. Denise Gomes (5-1, Tiger Muay Thai, Uzbekistan)
Just 24 years old, Amiran Gogoladze is a very intriguing prospect from Georgia that has amassed some great experience at such a young age. The lethal striker jumped onto scout’s radar in 2020 when he destroyed former top prospect Pavel Kusch in under one minute. He followed that up with a loss to the well-regarded Handesson Ferreira, but since then, ran through his three most recent opponents with his brutal striking. All of those came in the first round.
Two young, hungry fighters will step in the cage when South Africa’s Cameron Saaiman takes on American Josh Wang-Kim. When you have two young prospects looking to impress the bosses square off against one another, you can expect a great fight. Saaiman is 21 years old and has looked sharp while competing in his home country. He’s undefeated as both a pro and amateur. As for Wang-Kim, he had a very extensive amateur career before turning pro. His only loss is by illegal elbows in a fight he was dominating, so he could be similarly undefeated. He’s highly touted and skilled, so he will give Saaima a tough outing.
Just 22 years old, Eduardo Neves looks to be a heavyweight prospect to keep your eyes on. He’s five fights into his pro MMA career and he has juggernauted his way through the competition with 100-percent TKO finish rate. That includes three first round knockouts in his last three fights, with finish times of 1:04, 0:57 and 0:41. With how young he is, Neves has a ton of time to continue to improve his game, and he’s going to. He weighs in close to the heavyweight limit of 265 pounds, so he’s a big fighter for the weight class. He takes on a fellow undefeated heavyweight here in Michael Parkin.
Darrius Flowers possesses a co-main event slot, but he has a tall mountain to climb. Not only is he fighting the perceived best fighter on the card in Gogoladze, but Flowers has shown some inconsistency in his career. In his five losses, he has been submitted four times, and while Gogoladze is more of a striker, he does have some mat skills. Flowers has boxing skills and overall striking acumen, but that will be challenged by Gogoladze’s abilities. Flowers could surprise us, as he does have an impressive three-fight winning streak, but he has the tallest hill to climb on this episode.
There are a number of great fighters on this card who combine skill and excitement. Those combos will result in a number of fighters inked.
Erisson Ferreira gets in, as he’s a flyweight and already has Contender Series experience.
Gomes and Neves both get signed, as they are exciting prospects in divisions that need additional bodies in their ranks at women’s strawweight and heavyweight, respectively.
Lastly, Gogoladze gets in by being the best fighter on the card and putting on a barnburner against a stylistically similar fighter. | https://combatpress.com/2022/08/contender-series-season-6-ep-5-preview-and-predictions/ | 2022-08-23T02:46:40Z | https://combatpress.com/2022/08/contender-series-season-6-ep-5-preview-and-predictions/ | false | 1 |
LONDON (AP) — Prince William and his wife, Kate, will relocate their family from central London to more rural dwellings in Windsor, and all three of their children will attend the same private school near their new home, palace officials said Monday.
William and Kate will move from Kensington Palace in west London to Adelaide Cottage, about a 10-minute walk from Windsor Castle, palace officials said in a statement.
The move means that the family will be much closer to Queen Elizabeth II, who has lived in Windsor Castle since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic. The queen’s official residence is Buckingham Palace in London, but some British media reports have said the monarch, 96, may now permanently reside in Windsor.
Prince George, 9, Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince Louis, 4, will all start at the private Lambrook School in nearby Ascot in September. George and Charlotte had been attending a school in south London, and Louis is just starting his formal full-time schooling.
Adelaide Cottage, built in 1831 for Queen Adelaide, the wife of King William IV, is a four-bedroom home of relatively modest size for the royals. But William and Kate will retain their apartment in Kensington Palace as their official working base, as well as their 10-bedroom country mansion in Norfolk and a holiday cottage in Scotland. | https://ktla.com/news/nationworld/ap-international/prince-william-kate-relocate-from-london-to-windsor-cottage/ | 2022-08-23T02:48:16Z | https://ktla.com/news/nationworld/ap-international/prince-william-kate-relocate-from-london-to-windsor-cottage/ | false | 34 |
WASHINGTON (AP) — Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert who became a household name — and the subject of partisan attacks — during the COVID-19 pandemic, announced Monday he will leave the federal government in December after more than five decades.
Fauci directs the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, is chief medical adviser to President Joe Biden and also leads a lab studying the immune system.
While the COVID-19 pandemic introduced him to millions of Americans, he’s given straight-talk to the nation about numerous outbreaks including HIV/AIDS, SARS, pandemic flu, Ebola and the 2001 anthrax attacks.
“I’ve gone into this campus and into the labs and into the hospital every day, including most weekends, for 54 years. The idea of walking away from it obviously is bittersweet,” Fauci told The Associated Press.
In announcing his departure, the 81-year-old Fauci called his roles “the honor of a lifetime” but said it was time “to pursue the next chapter of my career.”
Known for his candor and for the ability to translate complex medical information into everyday language, Fauci has been a key adviser to seven presidents starting with Ronald Reagan.
Fauci became the face of the government response to COVID-19 as it hit in early 2020, with frequent appearances on television news and at daily press conferences with White House officials, including then-President Donald Trump. But as the pandemic deepened, Fauci fell out of favor with Trump when his urgings of continued public caution clashed with the former president’s desire to return to normalcy and to promote unproven treatments for the virus.
Fauci found himself marginalized by the Trump administration, but he continued to speak out publicly in media interviews, advocating social distancing and masks in public settings before the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccines.
He was also the subject of political attacks and death threats and was given a security detail for his protection.
When Biden won the White House, he asked Fauci to stay on in his administration in an elevated capacity.
“I’ve been able to call him at any hour of the day for his advice,” Biden said in a statement. “Whether you’ve met him personally or not, he has touched all Americans’ lives with his work. I extend my deepest thanks for his public service. The United States of America is stronger, more resilient, and healthier because of him.”
Fauci said he planned to continue working after leaving the government, saying he wants to use his experience “to hopefully inspire the younger generation of scientists and would-be scientists” to consider a career in public service.
For all the rancor of the coronavirus pandemic, it wasn’t Fauci’s first run-in with an angry public. He became head of the infectious diseases branch of the National Institutes of Health in 1984 when the nation was in the throes of the AIDS crisis. Activists protested what they saw as government indifference and Fauci, frustrated at being unable to save dying patients in the NIH’s hospital, brought them to the table in the hunt for treatments.
Later, under President George W. Bush, Fauci helped develop PEPFAR, the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, to bring life-saving HIV treatments to developing countries. In 2008, Bush awarded Fauci the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Fauci said Monday he’d hoped there would be a successful HIV vaccine before he retired but “it wasn’t for lack of trying” to overcome extraordinary scientific challenges posed by that virus.
Fast forward to COVID-19, and for many Americans, Fauci has remained a trusted voice even as scientists were surprised again and again by a fast-evolving new virus. The NIH had laid the scientific groundwork for the speedy development of powerful coronavirus vaccines that, while not perfect, are highly effective at preventing serious illness and death.
Fauci told the AP that he remains frustrated at the country’s divisions over how to handle the pandemic.
“If ever there was a situation where you wanted a unified approach and everybody pulling together for the common good, it would be when you’re in the middle of a public health crisis,” he said. “As a physician and a scientist, I and my colleagues have the responsibility to do what’s correct, what is science-based.”

LAS VEGAS, N.M. (AP) — In the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, buzzing chainsaws interrupt the serenity. Crews are hustling to remove charred trees and other debris that have been washing down the mountainsides in the wake of the largest wildfire in New Mexico’s recorded history, choking rivers and streams.
Heavy equipment operators are moving boulders dislodged by the daily torrential summer rains that have followed the flames.
Workers have dug trenches and built barriers to help keep the flood of muddy, ash-laden runoff from causing more damage so it won’t further contaminate the drinking water supply for the community of more than 10,000 that sits at the edge of the forest.
The clock is ticking for Las Vegas, a college town and economic hub for ranchers and farmers who have called this rural expanse of the Sangre de Cristo mountain range home for generations.
It has less than 30 days of drinking water left.
Events have been canceled in an effort to discourage more people from coming to town. Residents are showering with buckets in hopes of salvaging extra water for other uses. Restaurants are worried they may have to cut back on serving their signature red and green chile dishes. The three universities that call Las Vegas home are coming up with conservation plans as the school year kicks off.
“It is disheartening to our families and our children to not know that they may not have water in a month from now,” said Leo Maestas, the city manager.
It was just months earlier that thousands of residents from Las Vegas and dozens of surrounding mountain villages were forced to pack up their belongings, load their livestock into trailers and flee as the wildfire raged, fueled by unprecedented hot, dry winds.
They watched from a distance as an area larger than Los Angeles was devoured by a conflagration sparked by the federal government when two planned burns meant to reduce the threat of wildfire went awry due to a combination of human error and outdated modeling that didn’t account for extreme weather. Hundreds of homes were destroyed and livelihoods lost.
Amid an undercurrent of heartbreak and anger, residents are feeling the sting yet again as their water supply dwindles as a result and the pressures of climate change show no signs of letting up.
“I mean what else could possibly happen?” asked Las Vegas Mayor Louie Trujillo, not wanting to tempt fate.
Trujillo said the community is no stranger to watering restrictions as drought has long been part of life in northern New Mexico. He and other residents have become experts at using just half the water of the average American, or about 44 gallons.
“So asking the citizens to do even more is quite an imposition. It’s very hard,” said Trujillo, as he prepared for federal emergency managers to arrive with another truckload of bottled water for distribution to community members.
Utility managers have been unable to tap into their usual source — the Gallinas River — since it has been choked by ash and debris.
Trujillo declared an emergency in late July and New Mexico’s governor followed with her own declaration, freeing up funding to help pay for the installation of a temporary treatment system that will allow for water from a nearby lake to be used to supplement supplies.
City officials expect that system to be installed next week. It will be capable of treating about 1.5 millions gallons (5.7 million litres) a day, about what the city consumes daily. But it’s only a Band-Aid, Trujillo said.
Like other western cities, Las Vegas is in search of alternative sources of water as nearby rivers and reservoirs shrink amid hotter, drier conditions. The wildfire complicates matters.
New Mexico’s largest city, for example, was forced to stop pulling water from the Rio Grande this year as it dried up within Albuquerque city limits for the first time in decades. And for the second year in a row, Arizona and Nevada will face cuts in the amount of water they can draw from the Colorado River as the western drought becomes more acute.
Las Vegas is hoping the temporary treatment system will slow down the ticking clock as crews continue work upstream to keep more ash, debris and sediment from clogging the Gallinas River that feeds the city’s reservoirs.
Trujillo said a permanent treatment system on the river could cost more than $100 million, far beyond the city’s means. There’s no timetable for designing or building such a system.
What is heartbreaking for the mayor is that the region is experiencing one of the best monsoon seasons in several years. Had it not been for the fire and the contamination, the city would have been able to capture the storm runoff pulsing through the river and bolster its reservoirs for the future as drought persists.
For Trujillo, his neighbors, the governor and members of Congress, the blame for the current water crisis falls squarely on the federal government.
“We’re going to continue to hold them responsible and expect them to pay for all of the improvements that we’re going to have to make,” the mayor said.
Daniel Patterson, a resource adviser with the U.S. Forest Service, called it an all-hands-on-deck approach as the agency works with local officials to protect the watershed that supplies Las Vegas. He acknowledged the Forest Service’s responsibility to restore the watershed as well as people’s access to their private property and traditional practices like gathering firewood from the forest.
“Those are all top priorities right now,” he said. “But it’s a heavy lift and it’s a long haul.”
President Joe Biden flew over the burn scar during a quick visit in June, promising the federal government would step up. Still, many residents feel abandoned.
Danny Lopez, who owns a ranch just outside of Las Vegas, called the past few months a nightmare. The fire charred nearly one square mile of land where he used to graze his cattle. His fences burned and the roof of his home was singed, damage now worsened by the summer rains.
His alfalfa fields have been compromised by the mud, ash and debris rolling off the surrounding hillsides. And with electricity cut off for months, he and his neighbors lost everything they had stockpiled in their fridges and freezers.
His request for aid from FEMA is tangled in red tape, with federal officials requiring something that simply does not exist for many rural properties — a street address.
“They don’t understand the devastation,” said Lopez, who has been forced to reduce his herd by half. “They don’t know how the people live here and how they get by here.”
Charlie Sandoval is the owner of Charlie’s Bakery Café in downtown Las Vegas. It has served as a gathering spot for the community and travelers for decades, made famous by its homemade chile recipes, fresh tortillas and cinnamon rolls.
It takes as much as 13 gallons (49 litres) of water to make one big batch of chile. Then there’s the water needed for the tortillas and the dough for the pastries.
“Everything that we do just takes water,” Sandoval said. “And it just really scares me. What would happen if we run out of water, you know?”
The bakery is using more plastic and paper items to cut down on dishwashing. But supplies are expensive, and the bottom line is taking a hit.
If more restrictions are imposed, Sandoval worries about how long he can keep the bakery open and what that might mean for his employees.
At the end of July, the city implemented Stage 6 restrictions, meaning no more outdoor watering, no refilling of swimming pools, restaurants cannot serve water to customers unless requested, and no new water accounts can be activated.
For City Manager Maestas, it’s been a sleepless month. More than once he’s jumped into his pickup in the middle of the night and rushed down to check on a diversion point along the Gallinas River. Standing there, he stares down an impossible decision: If the contaminated river rises fast enough post-monsoon, will he direct the flow into town and flood homes? Or will he further pollute the city’s back-up drinking water supply?
Fear, sadness and then anxiety set in. He wants to make the right decision.
“No city official or government official should ever be put in that predicament,” he said. | https://ktla.com/news/politics/ap-politics/nm-city-victim-of-government-burn-now-faces-water-shortage/ | 2022-08-23T02:50:52Z | https://ktla.com/news/politics/ap-politics/nm-city-victim-of-government-burn-now-faces-water-shortage/ | false | 40 |
MATTAPOISETT, Mass. (WPRI) — Investigators believe a massive fire that destroyed boats, vehicles and buildings at Mattapoisett Boatyard last week was accidental in nature.
State Fire Marshal Peter Ostroskey and Mattapoisett Fire Chief Andrew Murray released a joint update Monday saying they believe the fire started when a spark ignited gasoline vapors while a worker was replacing a boat’s gas tank inside one of the buildings.
The resulting explosion sent the worker to Rhode Island Hospital with significant injuries.
The owners of the boatyard identified the worker Monday as Phil Macomber. They said he remains at the hospital with major burns and a shattered femur. While he’s expected to survive, he has a long road to recovery ahead.
A GoFundMe page was set up to collect money for Macomber’s medical expenses. As of 9:30 p.m. Monday, it had already raised almost $134,000.
More than 100 firefighters responded to the six-alarm fire on Friday. After the initial explosion, officials said strong winds coming off the water fueled the flames and caused them to spread to six buildings, as well as many of the vehicles and boats nearby.
Nearly four dozen vehicles were damaged, according to fire officials, while the boatyard’s owners said 20 boats were lost.
Three firefighters were taken to the hospital for heat exhaustion and smoke inhalation. All three have since been released, according to fire officials.
The fire was out by about 6 p.m., but crews remained on scene throughout the night to dig through the rubble and make sure it didn’t flare back up.
Mattapoisett Boatyard has been in business for more than 60 years. Owner David Kaiser released a statement Monday saying they’re essentially starting over from the ground up, having lost all of their tools, equipment, inventory and paperwork, but he assured this isn’t the end.
“To be sure there is no misunderstanding, we plan to come back from this better and stronger!” Kaiser wrote. “I heard myself saying that day, “It’s not a question of if we will rebuild, it’s a question of how tall and how wide!” The Boatyard will be here for you!”
Kaiser said the business will be setting up temporary shop at its Route 6 location. The waterfront, docks and launches off Ned’s Point Road weren’t affected by the fire, he noted, and the hope is to have the yard cleaned up for parking by this coming weekend.
The business will, however, have to restore its schedules and records that were “always handled the old-fashioned way” on paper.
“To reconstruct these records will not be easy,” Kaiser said. “We would ask any of you who have not received a launching bill, mooring or other service invoice to let us know. Something of the Honor System. Your help in this will be very much appreciated!”
Kaiser thanked first responders for their efforts during Friday’s fire and their customers, friends and community for the “overwhelming” amount of outreach and support since.
“As much as we would never wish this tragedy on anyone, the way that so many have rallied around us has been incredible,” he wrote. “We have always loved our town and our wonderful community. We never realized the profound effect this horrible event would have on so many others. It’s impossible not be feel emotional and deeply moved by other’s efforts to help out.” | https://www.wpri.com/news/local-news/se-mass/mattapoisett-boatyard-fire-deemed-accidental/ | 2022-08-23T02:51:23Z | https://www.wpri.com/news/local-news/se-mass/mattapoisett-boatyard-fire-deemed-accidental/ | false | 2 |
WASHINGTON (AP) — Lawyers for former President Donald Trump asked a federal judge Monday to prevent the FBI from continuing to review documents recovered from his Florida estate earlier this month until a neutral special master can be appointed to inspect the records.
The request was included in a federal lawsuit, the first filing by Trump's legal team in the two weeks since the search, that takes broad aim at the FBI investigation into the discovery of classified records at Mar-a-Lago and that foreshadows arguments his lawyers are likely to make as the probe proceeds.
The filing casts the Aug. 8 search, in which the FBI said it recovered 11 sets of classified documents from Mar-a-Lago, as a "shockingly aggressive move" and asserts that the action took place even through Trump had been "fully cooperative" for weeks as federal agents scrutinized the presence of presidential records at Mar-a-Lago. It also attacks the warrant as overly broad and asserts that the Justice Department should not be afforded "trust us" deference in conducting the investigation.
"Law enforcement is a shield that protects America. It cannot be used as a weapon for political purposes," the lawyers wrote Monday. "Therefore, we seek judicial assistance in the aftermath of an unprecedented and unnecessary raid" at Mar-a-Lago.
In a separate statement, Trump said "ALL documents have been declassified" and described the records as having been "illegally seized" from his home. The Justice Department countered in a terse three-sentence statement that the search had been authorized by a federal judge after the FBI showed there was probable cause to believe a crime had been committed. It said it would respond in court to the motion.
The filing specifically requests the appointment of a special master not connected the case who would be tasked with inspecting the records recovered from Mar-a-Lago and setting aside those that are covered by executive privilege — a principle that permits presidents to withhold certain communications from public disclosure.
In some other high-profile cases — including investigations involving Rudy Giuliani and Michael Cohen, two of Trump's personal attorneys — that role has been filled by a retired judge.
"This matter has captured the attention of the American public. Merely 'adequate' safeguards are not acceptable when the matter at hand involves not only the constitutional rights of President Trump, but also the presumption of executive privilege," the attorneys wrote.
The lawsuit argues that the records, by virtue of having been created during Trump's White House tenure, are "presumptively privileged." But the Supreme Court has never determined whether a former president can assert executive privilege over documents, writing in January that the issue is unprecedented and raises "serious and substantial concerns."
The high court turned down Trump's plea to block records held by the National Archives from being turned over to the Jan. 6 committee, saying then that his request would have been denied even if he had been the incumbent president, so there was no need to tackle the thorny issue of a former president's claims.
The lawsuit seeks to paint Trump as compliant with investigators, saying members of his personal and household staff were made available for voluntary interviews and quoting him as telling FBI and Justice Department officials during a June visit to Mar-a-Lago, "Whatever you need, just let us know."
But the chronology of events suggests that search took place only after other options to recover classified documents from the home had been incomplete or unsuccessful. In May, for instance, weeks before the search, the Justice Department issued a subpoena for records bearing classification markings.
After the meeting at Mar-a-Lago in June involving FBI and Justice Department officials, investigators interviewed another witness who told them that there were likely additional classified documents still stored at Mar-a-Lago, according to person familiar with the investigation who was not authorized to speak publicly about it.
The new lawsuit filed Monday was assigned to U.S. District Judge Aileen M. Cannon, who was nominated by Trump in 2020 and confirmed by the Senate 56-21 later that year. She is a former assistant U.S. attorney in Florida, handling mainly criminal appeals, and is a member of the conservative Federalist Society, according to her biography.
The months-long investigation, which burst into public view with the Mar-a-Lago search, emerged from a referral from the National Archives, which had retrieved 15 boxes of documents and other items from the estate that should have been turned over to the agency when Trump left the White House. An initial review of that material concluded that Trump had brought presidential records and several other documents that were marked classified to Mar-a-Lago.
Separately Monday, a federal judge acknowledged that redactions to an FBI affidavit spelling out the basis for the search might be so extensive as to make the document "meaningless" if released to the public. But he said he continued to believe it should not remain sealed in its entirety because of the "intense" public interest in the investigation.
A written order from U.S. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart largely restates what he said in court last week, when he directed the Justice Department to propose redactions about the information in the affidavit that it wants to remain secret. That submission is due Thursday at noon.
Justice Department officials have sought to keep the entire document sealed, saying disclosing any portion of it risks compromising an ongoing criminal investigation, revealing information about witnesses and divulging investigative techniques. They have advised the judge that the necessary redactions to the affidavit would be so numerous that they would strip the document of any substantive information and make it effectively meaningless for the public.
Reinhart acknowledged that possibility in his Monday order, writing, "I cannot say at this point that partial redactions will be so extensive that they will result in a meaningless disclosure, but I may ultimately reach that conclusion after hearing further from the Government."

The High Times Cannabis Cup Colorado: People’s Choice 2022 winners are in—and it’s one for the books! For any company, a Cannabis Cup award is a badge of honor that sets them aside from the rest of the competition in a highly competitive market.
The Cannabis Cup Colorado: People’s Choice Edition is aimed to identify and award the best cannabis products from across the state, while representing an assortment of 12 different categories, with many of the entries being exclusive to the Colorado cannabis market.
And the best perk? The winners are judged by the great people of the Centennial State.
Between June 5, when Judges Kits became available, and August 7, People’s Choice Judges worked diligently to rate each cannabis entry on looks, taste, smell, effect, and burnability—on a scale of one to 10. Judges were able to login to the Judging Portal on CannabisCup.com as they sampled each entry. They were asked to judge each entry one by one, to separate the effects from one another.
Judges entered the password and Access Code from the Judge’s Card they received in their Judge’s Kit, stored in official High Times gear. Over half of the categories quickly sold out.
This event was the second-ever competition open to the Colorado public and saw the largest pool of judges in history!

LUDHIANA: The mobile wing of the State GST (SGST) department, on Monday, conducted a search and seizure operation on the premises of two edible oil traders in Ludhiana, both of whom are related.
Different teams of the department, headed by additional commissioner, SGST, Punjab, Viraj S Tidke and director, enforcement, HPS Ghotra, simultaneously struck at two offices located in Kesarganj Mandi and JMD Mall on the suspicion of tax evasion. The teams were accompanied by heavy police force.
A highly-placed source in the department said, "A search and seizure operation was carried out at the offices of YK Enterprises and Shree Ashok Enterprises located at JMD Mall and in Kesarganj Mandi. The action was conducted after the SGST officials found several discrepancies hinting towards tax evasion in the data mining report generated through a special software. Both the entities are in the business of edible oil and are sister concerns owned by the same family."
"On an earlier occasion, a truck laden with edible oil (which belonged to one of the companies) was intercepted by the SGST department and it was found to be without genuine documents, leading to the suspicion of tax evasion," the source added.
The source said, "In this action, documents, mobile phones, digital devices and account books have been impounded. These will be examined to ascertain irregularities and the quantum of tax evasion. The search lasted six hours. More entities have been identified by the SGST department who are in the same trade and involved in clandestine sales and evasion of tax. Action against them is likely."

DALLAS (AP) — Heavy rains across the Dallas-Fort Worth area on Monday caused streets to flood, submerging vehicles as officials warned motorists to stay off the roads.
“The Dallas-Fort Worth area was pretty much ground zero for the heaviest rain overnight,” said Daniel Huckaby, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.
He said that as of Monday morning, at least 7 inches (18 centimeters) of rain had fallen across much of the area.
In a Tweet just after 9 a.m., Dallas police listed dozens of locations where they were responding to high water calls. At 10 a.m., the Fort Worth Fire Department tweeted that they were working 25 high water investigations or rescue calls in that city.
“We’ve been in drought conditions, so the ground soaked up a lot of it but when you get that much rain over that short a period of time, it’s certainly going to cause flooding, and that’s what we saw, definitely in the urban areas here,” Huckaby said.
Huckaby said that the flooding started overnight on streets and interstates.
“It fell very, very quickly,” Huckaby said. “We had some locations there in Dallas that had more than 3 inches (7.6 centimeters) of rain even in one hour.”
He noted that with so much concrete in urban areas, “there’s just only so much that the drain systems can handle.”
Around White Rock Lake in Dallas, standing water covered some grassy fields. And after months of being dried by hundred-degree temperatures and almost no precipitation, the lake’s concrete spillway was engulfed by a torrential flow.
The heavy rain is expected to move out of the Dallas-Fort Worth area later Monday, Huckaby said. | https://www.ksnt.com/news/ap-top-headlines/heavy-rain-floods-streets-across-dallas-fort-worth-area/ | 2022-08-23T03:18:28Z | https://www.ksnt.com/news/ap-top-headlines/heavy-rain-floods-streets-across-dallas-fort-worth-area/ | false | 20 |
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Officials in Live Oak County are holding their breath as water levels at the Nueces River rise.
However, we're learning the county may have dodged a bullet this time around as the Nueces River reaches it's crest.
3NEWS spent the day in Three Rivers and George West to speak with officials and residents in the area.
Margaret Henesy said she and her husband live within sight of the Nueces River, but it hasn't threatened their home.
"Danger? No. We get to choose how close we get to it. Our lowest fields are full," Henesy said.
Zac Durham, Emergency Management Manager for Live Oak, said the river crest warnings are in effect until Wednesday.
"The Frio is predominantly back flow off the Nueces at this point," Durham said. "We've been monitoring this very closely. Currently anyone that's in here camping is not under threat."
Durham said he opened Three Rivers High School gym as an emergency shelter, but closed it midday since no one was using it.
The National Weather Service is forecasting the Nueces River to crest early Tuesday morning and so far, Durham said they have seen only minor flooding.
"At this point we're more worried about people being stranded than we are actually needing swift water rescue," Durham said.
3NEWS saw that several boat ramps were closed; Durham hopes to reopen them once the high water threat is past. While the emergency shelter is now closed, he said residents should not hesitate to contact his office to get help if needed at 361-449-8066.
Officials say places like Tips Park, as well as the intersection of Highway 281 and 59 near the Nueces River are the only spots residents are going to see standing water, at least for now. They're not expecting too much more in the next couple of days and are hoping for the best.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. State Department on Monday issued a security alert warning that Russia is stepping up efforts to launch strikes against Ukraine’s civilian infrastructure and government facilities in the coming days.
The U.S. Embassy in Kyiv urged U.S. citizens still in Ukraine to depart the country immediately.
“If you hear a loud explosion or if sirens are activated, immediately seek cover,” the State Department said in its alert. “If in a home or a building, go to the lowest level of the structure with the fewest exterior walls, windows, and openings; close any doors and sit near an interior wall, away from any windows or openings.”
The State Department issued the alert after the U.S. intelligence community on Monday declassified a finding that determined that Russia would increasingly target Ukrainian civilian infrastructure, according to a U.S. official familiar with the intelligence. The official was not authorized to comment publicly about the finding and spoke on the condition of anonymity.
The new intelligence comes as Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine will hit the six-month mark Wednesday, which coincides with Ukraine's independence day from Soviet Union rule.
President Joe Biden spoke Sunday with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz about concerns about shelling near the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant in southeastern Ukraine and called for the United Nations nuclear watchdog to visit the power plant.
The official said, however, that the intelligence finding is not specifically tied to concerns about Zaporizhzhia.
The Biden administration is battling to keep western allies — and Washington — focused on maintaining pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell said Monday the “single most important thing going on in the world right now is to beat the Russians in Ukraine.”
Speaking at a luncheon event in Scott County, Kentucky, McConnell said the one fear he has is that the U.S. and others will “all kind of lose interest” as the war drags on.
“We need to stick with them,” McConnell said. “It’s important to us, and to the rest of the world, that they succeed.” | https://www.13newsnow.com/article/news/nation-world/russia-looks-to-step-up-hits-on-ukraine-infrastructure-us-state-department-says/507-b900311a-01a2-4b42-b585-b3efd897fa9c | 2022-08-23T03:22:46Z | https://www.13newsnow.com/article/news/nation-world/russia-looks-to-step-up-hits-on-ukraine-infrastructure-us-state-department-says/507-b900311a-01a2-4b42-b585-b3efd897fa9c | true | 56 |

Japanese Minced Beef
Ground beef is fried with ginger, soy sauce, sake and mirin for a quick and easy mid-week meal. Serve with rice.
Ground beef is fried with ginger, soy sauce, sake and mirin for a quick and easy mid-week meal. Serve with rice.
Quick and easy and pretty tasty, too. Alone with rice, it is simple. The sauce gets 5 stars, the finished dish gets 3 because it is just ok. To give it a kick, I put it in lettuce wraps and also served it wrapped in rice wrappers with some fresh veggies and basil. That snazzed it up a bit. Make some extra sauce for dipping if you go the "roll" route. It is excellent.

Didn’t have saki or rice wine so used white wine and rice vinegar as substitutes. Served on a bed of lettuce with fresh cut bell pepper and white rice. Went down well and was a bit different to the usual ground beef options.
Had to substitute sweet sherry for the sake and mirin, but enjoyed this dish. Adding it to my monthly repertoire and will buy some mirin for next time.

Netroots Nation Attendees Protest Facebook And Meta’s Presence At Progressive Conference
C onsidered the largest annual gathering of progressive organizers, candidates and grassroots activists, Netroots Nation is seen as an opportunity for people to strategize and engage ahead of the upcoming midterm elections. But a new addition to this year’s conference raised concerns from some attendees.
Led by the Facebook Users Union organizers , attendees raised concerns about Facebook and its parent company Meta having anything to do with the progressive gathering.
While Facebook and its parent company Meta have come under fire in recent years for numerous violations, the platform recently handed over private messages in an abortion prosecution case in Nebraska. Earlier this month, Media Matters reported the platform earned money from advertisements filled with misinformation about “abortion pill reversal.”
Netroots Nation attendees entered the area around the Meta both to the call and response chant, “When abortion rights are under attack, what do we do…stand up, fight back.”
Brittany Williams, Facebook Users Union’s organizing director, challenged Netroots Nation to do better by aligning with their alleged values in seeking sponsorships and support.
“Meta should not be welcomed in any progressive space when they aid in genocide in the Global South,” Williams said in a statement. “They are accused of human trafficking in Kenya and share data with police to criminalize their users.”
Speaking with NewsOne, Williams said the action is a call-in to the Netroots leadership, given that many people gathered are actively working to protect people from being persecuted for having abortions.
“Facebook should not feel comfortable in any progressive space that says they’re fighting for the rights of people,” Williams said. “Facebook should not be welcome or comfortable in our space.”
Williams stressed that this was an opportunity for Netroots Nation to build with organizers and be accountable for inviting an organization into the space that is working against many of the issues progressives are trying to address.
“We are gathering to share resources; we are gathering to share lessons learned,” Williams said. “We always have to be in solidarity. Not with just the oppressed people in the U.S. But we must always keep our gaze on the global South and find solidarity and ways to connect and show up.”
The Facebook Users Union seeks to organizers site users to hold the platform accountable for issues like hate, disinformation and targeting of communities in the U.S. and abroad. Facebook also recently approved ads calling for ethnic violence in Kenya before the country’s election.
“When we’re talking about big tech companies, it’s time for us to unite,” Williams said. “It’s time for us to really, really take our collective power seriously.”

Montana officials are ordering a full fishing closure on another segment of the Big Hole River beginning Tuesday because of low stream flows.
Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks announced in a news release Monday that the closure would extend from the Tony Schoonen Fishing Access Site upstream to the Maidenrock Fishing Access Site.
The move comes after flows at a stream gauge near Glen dropped below 190 cubic feet per second late last week. That meets criteria for a full fishing closure as outlined in the Big Hole Watershed Committee Drought Management Plan, according to FWP.
It replaces an evening fishing closure that was ordered July 29.
That section abuts another portion of the Big Hole that has been fully closed to fishing since last week — the portion from Tony Schoonen Fishing Access Site downstream to the river’s confluence with the Beaverhead, near Twin Bridges. Part of the upper portion of the river is also fully closed to fishing — from Saginaw Bridge on Skinner Meadow Road to the North Fork Big Hole River.
The entire Jefferson River is also fully closed to fishing.
Evening fishing restrictions remain in place on several river sections in southwest Montana. Those restrictions apply between the hours of 2 p.m. and midnight, and are in effect on another section of the Big Hole and on parts of the Madison, Gallatin and East Gallatin rivers. A full list of closures and restrictions is available at https://fwp.mt.gov/news/current-closures-restrictions/waterbody-closures.
The closures are meant to protect fish from angling pressure as river conditions deteriorate. When water temperatures are high and flows are low, fish become more susceptible to disease and death, according to FWP. Adding in the stress of being caught and released increases the risk.
In general, the restrictions will remain in place until conditions improve.

(NEXSTAR) – After months of wallet-clutching prices, the cost of a steak may finally be going down.
Expensive cuts of meat like rib-eye and New York strip – often among the most expensive single items in a grocery cart – are even seeing discounts in some stores as meat plants bolster staffing and supplies stabilize, the Wall Street Journal reports.
Beef prices in stores dropped .7% in the four weeks ending Aug. 7, according to an Information Resources Inc. report cited by WSJ. It was the second straight four-week period of decline in more than a year and a half after dropping 1% in the previous period.
Part of the drop in price appears to be due to changes in consumer behavior.
Tyson Foods said in its third quarter results released earlier this month that the average sales price for beef went down in the third quarter of 2022 “driven by reduced demand for premium cuts of beef as compared to exceptionally high demand in the third quarter of fiscal 2021.”
“Promotional prices have come back to where they were two years ago,” one shopper told the WSJ. “I always eat red meat. I’m happy.”
Prices at the wholesale level fell from June to July, the first month-to-month drop in more than two years and a sign that some of the U.S. economy’s inflationary pressures cooled last month.
An August report from the Labor Department showed that the producer price index — which measures inflation before it reaches consumers — declined 0.5% in July. It was the first monthly drop since April 2020 and was down from a sharp 1% increase from May to June.
The easing of wholesale inflation suggests that consumers could get some relief from relentless inflation in the coming months. The wholesale report follows government data Wednesday that showed that consumer inflation was unchanged from June to July — the first flat figure after 25 straight months of increases.
Yet economists caution that it’s still too early to say that inflation is headed steadily lower.
“The July deceleration … is a move in the right direction,” said Rubeela Farooqi, chief U.S. economist at High Frequency Economics. “But producer costs continue to rise at a rapid pace, well above target.”
Federal Reserve officials saw signs that the U.S. economy was weakening at their last meeting but still called inflation “unacceptably high’’ before raising their benchmark interest rate by a sizable three-quarters of a point in their drive to slow spiking prices.
In minutes from their July 26-27 meeting released Wednesday, the policymakers said they expected the economy to expand in the second half of 2022. But many of them suggested that growth would weaken as higher rates take hold. The officials noted that the housing market, consumer spending, business investment and factory production had decelerated after having expanded robustly in 2021.
Slower growth, they noted, could “set the stage’’ for inflation to gradually fall to the central bank’s 2% annual goal, though it remained “far above’’ that target. But the policymakers made clear that for now, they intend to continue raising rates enough to slow the economy.

Texas pro-life activist working with locals to ban abortion in Bellevue
So far in Nebraska, he has helped two small towns pass bans
BELLEVUE, Neb. (WOWT) - Signatures in Bellevue are being collected in an attempt to ban abortion in the city and to shut down the outspoken abortion clinic, CARE, that operates there.
The driving force behind the cause isn’t from Bellevue, however. He’s from Texas.
“51 cities have passed ordinances outlawing abortion within their city limits, and they did so because abortion may be going on elsewhere, but they didn’t want it happening in their own communities,” Mark Lee Dickson tells 6 News.
Dickson is the director of the Right to Life organization in East Texas, and the founder of the Sanctuary Cities for the Unborn.
Dickson travels from state to state, helping residents craft ordinance proposals to outlaw abortion in their cities, even in states where abortion is still legal, like Nebraska.
So far in Nebraska, Dickson has helped two small towns, Hayes Center, with a population of fewer than 300 people, and Blue Hill, with a population of less than 900, pass bans in their towns, despite the towns not having clinics with abortion access in them.
“People started asking, ‘when are you going to come to this side of Nebraska? When are we going to go after Bellevue?’”
Dickson was reached out to by Dr. Pat Castle, the founder of the LIFE Runner organization that operates out of the metro area, but is a global pro-life organization. Castle recruited three active, pro-life Bellevue residents to submit the ordinance proposal to the city. Castle is from Papillion.
The ordinance proposal is a request for a special election, meaning petitioners must gather signatures from 20% of verified Bellevue voters. After that, the issue goes before the city council. If the council fails to pass it, the issue goes to Bellevue voters in a special election.
Abortion advocates say if the ordinance passes, it would be detrimental.
“It’d be extremely damaging for the community, and not only that, but it’d be damaging for the whole state,” says Shelley Mann, a representative for the CARE abortion clinic in Bellevue.
Last week, Mann told 6 News that since the overturn of Roe vs. Wade, and even in the months leading up to it, they’re seen an increase in patients.
“We’ve seen four different states’ worth of patients in the last 24 hours, so there’s a lot of people utilizing this location for those services.”
Although the ordinance proposal, which varies from city to city, has passed in 51 cities, only one of those cities, Lubbock, Texas, actually had an abortion clinic.
Bellevue would be the second.
Dickson says the ordinance passed in Lubbock had exceptions, and Bellevue’s likely would, too.
“By talking about abortion, we’re talking about the intentional ending of an innocent child’s human life, and so were not talking about ectopic pregnancies, we’re not talking about the removing of a dead child due to miscarriage, were talking about the intentional killing of a human being made in the image of God.”
He says in cases like these, doctors must prove that the abortion was performed in order to save the life of the mother.
“You know if this clinic were to have to close in Bellevue, we would definitely look at opening another clinic in Omaha,” Mann says.

DALLAS, March 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Camelot Strategic Marketing & Media, an agency that provides top brands with powerful yet efficient marketing strategies and media services, turned to a top-tier influencer to bring their Experian client amazing results with a YouTube campaign. Camelot partnered with Mr. Beast to create a now-viral video to grab the attention of the difficult-to-to reach male consumers, ages 18-24.
The video's mid-roll integration showcases a woman tight-top walking from one cliff to the other for $20K cash, while Mr. Beast talks about Experian Boost, a financial product available at no cost that helps to empower consumers to contribute positive payment history directly into their Experian credit file for an opportunity to instantly increase their FICO Score.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LnlKwzc_TNA
This is part of a growing trend of agencies turning to top-tier influencers for large-scale campaigns to communicate to audiences that may not be consuming traditional media.
"Camelot has always done a great job of helping us focus on the right target, the right proposition and then let those choices guide our media decisions," said Steve Hartmann, Head of Integrated Marketing, Experian Consumer Services. "In this case, there is no more impactful way to reach consumers early in their financial lives than partnering with Mr. Beast."
Working with the Night Media agency, Camelot was able to connect Experian with a whole new audience who had no awareness of Experian Boost, Experian Go and the other ways Experian can help them improve their financial health and save money.
"This collaboration with Mr. Beast is the ideal way to reach a male 18-24 audience that is essential for our client partners at Experian, in exactly the place where they are most engaged," said Ben Cooper, President & COO, Camelot. "We could not be more thrilled with these initial results."

Tips & Tricks: Planning ahead for the Nebraska State Fair
GRAND ISLAND, Neb. (KSNB) - Nebraska State Fair 2022 is only days away and fair officials are urging guests to plan their trip ahead of time. With countless options for snacks, treats and entertainment, spending a day or two at the fair can end up costing a pretty penny — but there are ways to get the best bang for your buck.
NSF Executive Director Bill Ogg told Local4 News, fairgoers should purchase wristbands and tickets ahead of time. They can be found online at a discounted price from what one would find while at Fonner Park.
Ray Massie with the NSF seconds Ogg’s recommendation to buy what you can for the fair online.
“Really, every ticket that you want to get to the fair should be purchased ahead of time in order to save the maximum amount of money,” Massie said. “Whether you’re going to see Brantly Gilbert or Los Tucanes De Tijuana, or Happy Together, or Jeff Dunham or even Flo Rida — You’ll want to buy those tickets in advance.”
Also, with upwards of 50,000 people in one day attending the fair, it’s important to know the right places to park.
Fairgoers are advised to travel to the fairgrounds using by either using Stuhr Road or South Locust Street and from there, take the main entrance — State Fair Blvd.
Ogg suggests guests park in one of two grass lots located to the east and west of Fonner Park. But for those who want to avoid parking altogether, he offers up the shuttle service, returning once again this year.
“We also offer free shuttles from the Conestoga Mall, from Sam’s Club on the northern part of Grand Island and from Central Community College, on the southern part of Grand Island,” Ogg noted.
With large grounds to cover, hundreds of forms of entertainment and unique food options — Ogg also urges people to plan for more than a couple hours at the fair.
“Plan on spending hours here. there’s so much to see and do, there’s 40,000 hours of free entertainment,” he said. “Once you’re on the grounds, you literally cannot take it all in.”

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Kyle Larson has just two wins this season and both came at the expense of teammate Chase Elliott.
The relationship between NASCAR’s last two Cup champions seemed precarious Sunday night at Watkins Glen International as Larson celebrated in victory lane while Elliott sought out team leadership for what appeared to be an animated conversation.
The 2020 Cup champion and NASCAR’s most popular driver had just clinched the regular-season title, but Elliott had dominated the race and might have picked up his fifth win of the year had Larson not muscled his way past his teammate on the final restart.
Larson forced Elliott to miss the corner and slide back into traffic, all while Larson skirted away to his first victory since February at Fontana. He ran Elliott into the wall to win that race.
“I am not proud of it,” Larson said upon climbing from his car Sunday. “I don’t like to do that. But in that moment, that was my only shot to win. I haven’t won a lot this year. I felt like I did what I had to do to benefit our playoffs.”
Elliott, meanwhile, was locked into a conversation with Hendrick Motorsports owner Rick Hendrick and vice chairman Jeff Gordon. Elliott appeared to do most of the talking, and after he walked away, he had little to offer in interviews about the finish of the race or his regular-season title.
“Just a huge congratulations to Kyle and everybody on the 5 team. Congratulations to everybody at Hendrick Motorsports for getting another win,” was Elliott’s first response.
Larson said he expected a conversation between the two at the Hendrick competition meeting. What would Elliott have to say?
“Congratulations. He did a great job. Seriously, they deserve it,” Elliott said. “Looking forward to going to Bristol next week and trying to get one for our team.”
And what about Rick Hendrick, did he offer any words of consolation as one of his drivers celebrated and the other stewed? Elliott refused to bite.
“Like I said, always good to see HMS win,” Elliott said. “The boss deserves all the wins, all the great things that go on with this company. Proud of that. Looking forward to next week.”
Elliott on multiple references looked ahead to Bristol — apparently so angry in the moment that he forgot the regular-season finale Saturday night is at Daytona International Speedway. The Cup Series doesn’t race at Bristol until Sept. 17 in the first-round playoff elimination race.
It’s unlikely the Hendrick camp will allow this feud to fester for an entire month and get to Bristol, where deliberate revenge could knock someone to an early exit from the playoffs. But it has been difficult for Elliott and Larson to build much of a relationship since Larson joined the four-car Hendrick fleet in 2021.
NASCAR and HMS were still operating within COVID-19 protocols and face-to-face interactions were limited when Larson first joined the team. It wasn’t until midway through the season that the two spent any meaningful time together, and by that point Larson had already established himself as NASCAR’s top driver.
He was the new driver at HMS and teammates with the reigning Cup champion, but Larson outperformed Elliott and won 10 races en route to his own first Cup title. If there were hard feelings, it didn’t show until February of this year at Fontana when Elliott was clearly aggravated at how Larson raced him for the win.
Just like Sunday at Watkins Glen, Larson was instantly apologetic and sought out Elliott the next week to clear the air. He anticipated putting this latest kerfuffle to quick rest, but the playoffs start in a week with a Cup title on the line and two drivers have carved out their own personal inner-team rivalry that could stretch the next two-plus months.
Hendrick is unlikely to let it fester — don’t forget, HMS actually has all four of its drivers in the 16-driver playoff field — and the boss has long preached that ships are typically sunk from within. He’ll do his best this week to have Elliott calmed down before he gets to Daytona this weekend.
Whether that helps Larson the rest of the season remains to be seen.
“In my position you have to expect not getting any breaks cut my way,” Larson said. “I think and I hope it will be fine, but we’ll see. I didn’t end his day, but I did probably take a win from him. The next 11 weeks, 10 weeks in the playoffs, there’s more than just me to worry about.
“I definitely know there may be moments throughout the playoffs where I feel like we’re around each other a lot because we’re pretty equal on track and stuff. Yeah, there may be moments. In my position, you kind of have to accept it.”

NFL teams are afraid to use cut blocks in practice. So why are they still allowed to use them in games?

- Kayvon ThibodeauxAmerican football defensive endLiveTodayTomorrowvs--|
- Marshall NewhousePlayer of American footballLiveTodayTomorrowvs--|
- Micah ParsonsAmerican football player (1999-)LiveTodayTomorrowvs--|
In a matter of minutes Sunday night, the highlight burned a path through NFL social media accounts.
The right knee of promising New York Giants defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux bent awkwardly, his foot jammed beneath a low block from Cincinnati Bengals tight end Thaddeus Moss. Thibodeaux crumpled and rolled on the ground after the play, drawing reasonable suspicions of a terrible outcome. Anyone associated with football has seen how this can play out, often with a cart motoring onto the field and a season prematurely ending. And as it often does in these situations, Twitter’s instantaneous echo chamber reacted accordingly to the Thibodeaux clip, framing the moment through a familiar vocabulary.
“Dirty.”
“Suspension.”
“Ban.”
At first glance, it was understandable. The play looked terrible. Moss went very low on his block and Thibodeaux’s knee bent in a way that predictably draws a wince when viewed in slow motion. The replay was tailor made for a social media debate in this NFL era, when a significant hit on a player’s head or knees sparks an instantaneous argument either about the players involved or the legislation of violence across the league. That's exactly what happened Sunday night, as analysts and players (both current and former) sounded off in the argument.
#Giants rookie Kayvon Thibodeaux was injured on this play.
We will update you as we learn more about the injury. pic.twitter.com/1ll2mfetBs— Pro Football Network (@PFN365) August 22, 2022
Dallas Cowboys defensive star Micah Parsons tweeted, “I don’t know why cutting is still allowed in the NFL!!" The other part of the tweet featured saltier language.
That was backed up by former NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III, who tweeted, “It’s time to BAN THIS BLOCK. Period.”
Of course, there’s another side to the debate.
Former NFL offensive lineman T.J. Lang shot back at calls for retribution against Moss, tweeting: “For a block that happens 10x per game?"
Added free agent offensive lineman Marshall Newhouse, “This. Is. Legal. And. Definitely. Not. Dirty.”
The fallout one day later: Well, the result of the play was an MCL sprain for Thibodeaux that could keep him out at long as four weeks. Not good, but far better than the fears that his season had ended in an instant. The NFL also sided with the opinion of Lang and Newhouse, declining punishment against Moss because his hit was legal by the league’s letter of the law as it happened inside the tight end box, both Thibodeaux and Moss were facing each other when the hit occurred and Thibodeaux wasn’t defenseless, as he saw the block coming and lowered himself to deflect it.
It was a collision where one player went lower than the other on impact, exasperated by Thibodeaux’s foot appearing to get stuck under Moss as he was hit.
Of course, that won’t stop the debate about intent and whether Moss was purposely aiming for Thibodeaux’s knee on the play. Barring an admission from Moss or being able to read his mind, there’s little chance of proving his intent. It also can’t stop the debate about cut blocks in general, which tend to be largely accepted by players, though also thoroughly hated because of the degree of difficulty and potential for injury.
Controversy over the block isn’t new. In 2016, when the NFL banned the use of chop blocks, some in the league quietly questioned why cut blocks weren’t also eliminated. It made sense at the time, given that cut blocks had been long hated since being popularized by the San Francisco 49ers' zone run schemes (and later the Denver Broncos) during the 1980s and 1990s. As zone running schemes spread, so did the use of cut blocks. Particularly as teams saw the benefits of negating the size and speed of defenses with a simply executed lower-extremity block that often left players flattened.
Even with the upside of the blocks — which can be immensely helpful for offensive linemen, running backs and tight ends — teams still recognize them as dangerous to the knees and lower extremities of players. That’s why NFL teams generally never employ cut blocks in practice because it invites the possibility of serious injury.
And like most things that aren’t practiced regularly, that puts players (often young defenders) at a disadvantage during games because they face full speed cut blocks without having sharpened their instincts on handling them. Basically, young players in the NFL learn cut blocks on Sundays. And it’s their job to retain and develop that information without the promise of any practice exposure to those same blocks.
There is some sensibility supporting the NFL considering a ban on cut blocks. First and foremost, the league should stop ignoring the red flag that’s obvious: If teams are too scared to practice cut blocks because of the fear of knee injuries, why are they still part of the game on Sundays? It stands to reason that if teams won’t practice cut blocks on their own players, then they’re creating an experience gap that can lead to injury.
Of course, the response from those who benefit most from cut blocks (often offensive linemen) is that there aren’t enough injuries to support banning them. Sure, there’s an occasional Thibodeaux. Or worse, Washington Commanders tight end Logan Thomas, who lost eight months after sustaining a season-ending knee injury due to a cut block last season. But proponents of cut blocks will say they are necessary parts of schemes and that thousands of cut blocks occur every season without incident.
Where does the NFL stand on it? Well, it sides with the data. Part of the reason horse-collar tackles and chop blocks were ultimately eliminated was because the league studied those tactics and found data that supported a ban. Effectively, what the league needs to see is enough injuries to warrant the removal. Unfortunately, that’s part of the NFL’s cold calculation when it comes to player safety. Like an auto manufacturer considering a major recall, someone has to show that there’s enough carnage to make it necessary.
That’s not a great answer when you’re a hyperventilating Giants fan who probably envisioned the season laying on the turf next to Thibodeaux on Sunday night. But that’s where the NFL sits. And Giants head coach Brian Daboll might have summed it up best when asked about the block on Thibodeaux.
“Well, that’s the rules,” Daboll said. “If they allow it, you know, we do it as well with tight ends and fullbacks going back to the line of scrimmage. So we gotta do a good job playing it. It’s a tough block, but whatever the rules are, those are the rules.”
They likely won’t be changing anytime soon, even for something universally hated and completely underpracticed. | https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl-teams-are-afraid-to-use-cut-blocks-in-practice-so-why-are-they-still-allowed-to-use-them-in-games-034627970.html?src=rss | 2022-08-23T04:14:41Z | https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl-teams-are-afraid-to-use-cut-blocks-in-practice-so-why-are-they-still-allowed-to-use-them-in-games-034627970.html?src=rss | false | 2 |
Ravens QB Tyler Huntley shares thoughts on ability of TE Isaiah Likely

The Baltimore Ravens traveled to Arizona to face the Cardinals in their second preseason game of 2022. Baltimore ended up beating Arizona 24-17, extending their preseason win streak to 22. In the win, rookie tight end Isaiah Likely stood out in a big way, catching eight passes for 100 receiving yards and his first-career (preseason) touchdown.
Quarterback Tyler Huntley also had a great performance, and spoke to the media after the game. He was asked about Likely, and showed praise on the rookie as he talked about how what the tight end can do after the catch stood out to him the most.
"That's what sticks out the most, what @DaGorilla4 can do after the catch." @_SNOOP1 pic.twitter.com/ov1YJSYGeO
— Baltimore Ravens (@Ravens) August 22, 2022
“I think that’s what sticks out the most, what he can do after the catch. Once he gets the ball in his hands, he gets way more yards than you even expect so, that means a lot as a quarterback throwing to a receiver or a tight end, or even a running back is how much yards after the catch they get. It plays a long way in your thought decision.”
Likely is showing the Ravens that he’s the real deal, and deserves a big role in the offense right away. Baltimore has has success drafting and developing tight ends over the course of their franchise history, and that trend could very well be continuing with Likely. | https://sports.yahoo.com/ravens-qb-tyler-huntley-shares-034501681.html?src=rss | 2022-08-23T04:14:47Z | https://sports.yahoo.com/ravens-qb-tyler-huntley-shares-034501681.html?src=rss | false | 3 |

Utica University president shares career update in letter to school community
Utica University President Laura Casamento announced Monday she will retire at the end of the current academic year in 2023, after seven years at the helm.
Casamento, a Utica native and the university’s first female president, took the top position in 2016. She previously served as executive vice president and chief advancement officer at then-Utica College.
In a letter, Casamento described losses and health-related challenges in her family that accelerated the timeline for her retirement decision. The average term for a college president is six to eight years and the timing felt right, she said.
“As I looked seriously and honestly at my future and what lies ahead for the University over the next three to four years, I knew in my heart that I was not going to be here as president beyond the current Strategic Plan, which we are well on our way toward implementing,” Casamento said.
Casamento said she shared a transition plan with the university’s board of trustees and board chair Robert Brvenik is expected to announce next steps in the presidential search in the coming days.
A lifelong Mohawk Valley resident, Casamento was one of three finalists for Utica College’s top job in 2016 following an 11-month search. She was announced as president in February 2016 and started at the post in August.

During Casamento’s tenure, the university received its largest bequest, a $2.3 million gift from the Lotis B. Howland trust. A $2.8 million endowment, announced in 2020, founded the Institute for the Study of Integrative Healthcare.
Casamento co-chaired the local planning committee of the $10 million Downtown Revitalization Initiative with Utica Mayor Robert Palmieri.
“I thank you all for your support of me and each other and for your partnership in the important work of preparing our students for successful lives and preparing this institution for an even more remarkable next seventy-five years,” Casamento said. “I look forward to a successful year as we continue to move Utica University forward, together.” | https://www.uticaod.com/story/news/local/2022/08/22/utica-university-president-laura-casamento-announces-retirement/65414376007/ | 2022-08-23T04:20:59Z | https://www.uticaod.com/story/news/local/2022/08/22/utica-university-president-laura-casamento-announces-retirement/65414376007/ | false | 1 |

The Victorian Variety Bash has received a warm welcome in Mount Isa as they spent the day recovering and repairing vehicles on their journey to Cairns.
129 vehicles and over 500 participants arrived in town on Sunday afternoon after an eventful journey along the Birdsville track.

The North West Star heard from Bashers that one station wagon had rolled on the track, but managed to flip their vehicle back over and keep driving it, with little damage and no injuries reported.
The first Bash car arrived in Mount Isa on Sunday at 3pm with the last two vehicles being towed in from Boulia at 3am on Monday morning.
Bashers then spent the day recovering and repairing vehicles in Mount Isa, before departing on Tuesday morning for Julia Creek.
At the breakfast debriefing at Buchanan Park, The North West Star heard bashers had an eventful experience in Mount Isa.
"A handbag was stolen by some youth, some heroic Bashers made chase and retrieved the handbag returning it to the local woman," an official at the debrief said.
"Another Basher ran into some mechanical issues with his diff, however one Mount Isa local was generous enough to offer the diff out of his own F-truck, on their word that they would return it in the mail when they got back to Melbourne.
"We have seen some kind generosity here in Mount Isa, with people offering parts and making donations while we've been in town."
The North West Star spoke to Melbourne Bashers, John Castle, Charlie Scarcella and Greg Butt from Car 666 about their journey so far.
"We left from Melbourne and drove north to Beechworth VIC, then Cobar NSW, to Broken Hill NSW, to Maree SA, then Birdsville QLD to Mount Isa," John Castle said.
"We are having a rest day in Mount Isa today (Monday), as some vehicles need mechanical attention and a big enough hub to make the repairs.
"We do travel with four mobile workshops and they're very talented mechanics and they volunteer their time and tools. I've seen them make a radiator from a Valiant fit a Holden and a diff from a Ford Falcon fit a Valiant or Dodge; they're very good at customising vehicles to get them through to the next location."
The Car 666, has accumulated 43 years of Variety Bashes between them, with John Castle claiming 13 years, Charlie Scarcella claiming 29 years and Greg Butt experiencing the Variety Bash for the first time.
"I have seen a lot of Australia taking part in the Variety Bash," Mr Scarcella said.
"There are many places I have been more than once, but that doesn't matter. Variety is a great charity to be a part of and take part in each year.
"In my years of taking part and fundraising, I would have raised over $400,000.

"The cars must be 30 years or older and in 2022 Variety Vic is on target to raise over $2 million, which is incredible.
"It is great to be a part of the Bash and raising funds for kids in need."

July CPI readings showed inflation (both at a headline (0% Month-on-month (MOM) in July-22 compared to 1.3% MoM in June-22 and core level (0.3% MoM in July compared to 0.7% MoM in June) had tempered), which led to market hopes that the Fed would become marginally more dovish.
The Fed has indeed left the option of potentially becoming marginally more dovish open, as it has communicated in the below breadcrumbs:
However, these tantalizing breadcrumbs have been overwhelmed by the voices of more hawkish members in the past few days, just to give a few examples below based on recent media reports:
As a result, the 10-year treasury yield has gone from 2.55% on August 2 to near 3% in three weeks’ time, with most of the increase occurring since August 15 (from 2.75-2.8% to 3%).
In [June/July] 2020, Powell famously declared that the fed was not even thinking about thinking about raising rates. In fact, even in 2021 he commented multiple times that interest rates were unlikely to be increased for the foreseeable future. Even as late as November 2021, after announcing the start of QE tapering, Powell commented that “we don’t think it is a good time to raise interest rates because we want to see the labor market heal further”.
Fast forward just a few months and this tune was reversed. The Great Ease of 2020-2021 may be helpful for understanding why the Great Hike of 2022-2023 might be more enduring and we are just halfway through:
1. A few data points is not enough: If we look back at the monetary easing conducted since March 2020, we could see that the Fed affirmed its support of the economy (and markets) and repeatedly pointed to indicators such as the gap between the number of employed persons then and before the COVID-19 pandemic (which was c. 10 million at its peak as the reasons for staying the course.
As shown below, the employment level was 158 million persons pre-Covid in Jan-2020 and fell to 133 million Apr-2020. By Sep-2020, it had recovered to 150 million. Despite the troubles caused by the COVID variants in 2021, it was clear that the vaccines were having an impact and the labor market trended towards recovery. Yet the Fed chose not to act until Nov-2021 by tapering QE (incidentally this was when the Nasdaq peaked). So it may take a while until the economy flashes recession and inflation is evidently under control until the Fed turns.
2. The need to maintain consistency: Retrospectively, though the first easing in March 2020 was understandable given the context, leaving the spigots a bit too long may have contributed to the current predicament. However, from a policymaker perspective, it makes sense to err on the side of caution and avoid confusion from policy flipflops which would draw even more criticism from the public. Hence the spigots were left on for too long in 2020-2021 and now the Fed may stay hawkish for longer than expected.
3. Expectation management: this is sort of like the self-fulfilling prophecy:
Hence it doesn’t seem like the Fed will get dovish until they are certain that the inflation genie is put back in the bottle, which could take some time:
In short, the Fed is clearly telling the markets that the monetary easing they are looking for is nowhere in sight and to buckle up. They are likely to only start reverting to easing once (i) the downward pressure on the economy is evident and (ii) inflation is low for a sustained period of time (i.e. at least several months).

Arrest warrant issued against Haryanvi dancer Sapna Chaudhary for not performing at event
The FIR stated that Sapna breached the agreement and undertook business activities against the terms of the contract.
An arrest warrant has been issued against famous Haryanvi & singer dancer Sapna Choudhary. According to sources, Sapna did not perform at an event in 2018 for which she was paid by organisers in advance. The organisers dragged the matter to court and now the singer will be produced before Lucknow's ACJM court soon.
The incident dates back to October 13, 2018. More details in this regard are awaited.
This is not the first time Sapna has been accused of cheating and breach of trust.
In February 2021, Delhi Police's Economic Offences Wing registered a case against Sapna Choudhary on charges of cheating and breach of trust. The case was registered after a celebrity management company, that was managing Sapna, filed a complaint against her and several others including her mother and brother for criminal breach of trust, criminal conspiracy, cheating and misappropriation of funds.
As per the FIR, the complaint claimed that the popular Haryanvi singer broke an artist management agreement, wherein it was clarified that she would not be working with any other company nor joining any other company, nor have direct or indirect contact with any client of the complainant. The FIR stated that Sapna breached the agreement and undertook business activities against the terms of the contract. | https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/arrest-warrant-issued-against-haryanvi-dancer-sapna-chaudhary-for-not-performing-at-event-101661226359034-amp.html | 2022-08-23T04:36:54Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/arrest-warrant-issued-against-haryanvi-dancer-sapna-chaudhary-for-not-performing-at-event-101661226359034-amp.html | true | 7 |

There are five minutes and 30 seconds until the match kicks off, so it’s time to start the music. The players are due to exit the tunnel at 2.56pm on the dot and the euphoric crescendo from your specially commissioned remix of a 1990s trance classic hits precisely one minute and 30 seconds into the track.
You need it all to come together the second the captains’ feet reach the mat just in front of the tunnel, which is where everyone in the stadium will be first able to see them. It’s a timing operation of military precision that requires perfect synchronicity between your eyes on the ground and the DJ upstairs.
The players stroll out just as the track reaches its climax. Fans cheer, fire burns. The football is about to begin.
Football’s relationship with music has changed pretty dramatically.
In years gone by, you might get the odd song played as the team ran out onto the field. Or a dodgy song if your team reached the FA Cup final.
Nowadays, many clubs will blast high-energy music from 90 minutes before kick off, with carefully chosen pre-match setlists designed to heighten the senses and generate an atmosphere. Music will probably be played after goals, at half-time, at full-time. Celebrations of momentous victories or even title or cup wins may be defined by what you hear as much as what you see.
It’s hard to recall Rangers’ improbable run to the Europa League final last season without thinking of Belinda Carlisle’s Heaven is a Place on Earth. As Rangers correspondent Jordan Campbell wrote after their semi-final win over RB Leipzig, the song/chant to celebrate John Lundstram’s transformation from bit-part player to midfielder in-chief mirrored the team’s odds-defying spirit.
While some songs become synonymous with a team or a player having started life as a chant on the terraces and are logically therefore played after goals or victories, clubs also feel it’s their role to ramp up the pre-match atmosphere over the speakers. The notion of silence isn’t really a concept at stadiums anymore (even a minute’s silence to mark the passing of a club great is rare these days, with applause preferred instead), perhaps fans aren’t trusted to generate their own noise, so particularly at top-level clubs you’ll have wall-to-wall noise piped in until just seconds before kick off.
But how is music chosen? And, with tens of thousands of people to pleasure, who selects which music is to be played?
At Wolves, the ball boys and girls used to run out to Simply the Best by Tina Turner. Then they might play Elvis Presley’s The Wonder of You (also a favourite at Arsenal). Heck, they used to play The Happy Wanderers in the club’s golden age of the 1950s and 1960s.
But times change. Tastes change. Music changes.
Marketing manager Charlie Johnson is the mastermind behind Wolves’ “pre-match experience”, which the club considers to be one of the best in the country and includes a mix of traditional songs (Jeff Beck’s Hi Ho Silver Lining, which you’ll also hear at Villa Park and Hillsborough) as well as modern tastes for the younger audience.
“I think what we offer with the lights, the pyros, the flames… we try to push boundaries,” she says.
“We’ve had DJs performing live before matches before and the players walk out to a mix of Cafe Del Mar, which was a collaboration with the DJ Justin Wilkes.
“Hi Ho will never change, that’s very institutional, but what we’re trying before that, including a lot of dance music, suits the matchday experience we’re trying to put on for fans.”
In the land of Led Zeppelin and Slade, pumping house beats won’t please everyone. Neither will goal music (Wolves play a “mad dance song”, as former defender Conor Coady explains below). So how do they and other clubs try to keep everyone happy with what they play?

“Everyone has an opinion!” Johnson says. “Every single person has their own individual preference on music, we can’t do right for doing wrong so we have to stand our ground.
“We played Faithless a few seasons ago and people were like; ‘What’s this?’. We also had the same with Cafe Del Mar, but we’ve had that for three and a half years now.
“Hopefully we can keep making more changes so that we’re introducing fans to something. We’ve got a matchday experience group, so any changes we’d discuss with them first.
“We also try to support local artists. Reepa (a grime artist from Wolverhampton who has started collaborating with the club as part of its Wolves Records initiative) has been received really well, he was born two miles from the stadium and its a really nice connection to have.”
While some clubs will take fan opinion into account, one of the most successful pre-match music ventures in the last couple of decades was instigated by them.
Indie/rock DJ Dave Sweetmore took over the music at Rochdale’s Spotland (now the Crown Oil Arena) in 2001 and soon earned a reputation for turning the ground into something that resembled a mini Glastonbury.
When Sweetmore stepped back from matchday duties in the summer, Rochdale chief operating officer George Delves said: “His reputation across football speaks for itself.”
“When I started, it was mostly generic pop music that was played at Rochdale and at most other grounds around the country,” Sweetmore says.
“It was a brilliant time for guitar music and I’ve always been a big backer of local bands, so we combined classics from 30 or 40 years ago with local music. Lots of Rolling Stones, Beatles, Stone Roses, Oasis and then the new music scene around the north west has been amazing, especially over the last 10 years. We’ve had bands on the pitch, too.
“It became synonymous with Rochdale and we used to receive compliments from visiting fans pretty often.
“Keith Hill (manager at Rochdale for 11 years over two spells) is a massive music fan, particularly the Stone Roses and lots of Manchester music, so he had a few requests.
“When I started, the players walked out to Let’s Get Ready to Rumble by PJ and Duncan, which I soon changed to This is the One by the Stone Roses (also the walk-on music at Old Trafford).”
Goal music was in at Spotland, too, initially Song 2 by Blur and then Fire by Kasabian.
At full-time, if Rochdale had won, Sweetmore would play either Cum on Feel the Noize (Oasis’ cover of Slade’s original track) or Rockin’ All Over the World by Status Quo.
And if Rochdale had lost? “Live Forever by Oasis. I guess that suits the mood! Which is what it’s all about really. You have a big role to play as a DJ or matchday announcer, setting the tone for thousands of people.
“For a lot of people, music and football is what they live off. And that might not be as true as it is in Greater Manchester and the north west.
“A lot of clubs play generic chart music and that’s great, there’s nothing wrong with that, I just feel lucky that we did our own thing at Rochdale. It was cool and it had attitude.
“Music and football go hand in hand. When I left the club, someone said I invented rock ‘n’ roll football at the Crown Oil Arena… that’s a pretty good compliment!”
Players get involved, too. At Wolves, they handed an iPad to the players and asked them to pick songs they wanted to hear during their pre-match warm-up. Rayan Ait-Nouri wanted No Scrubs by TLC, Coady went for some Becky Hill.
And then there’s the all-important club anthems. Some are embedded into a club’s culture and have obvious meanings, such as You’ll Never Walk Alone at Anfield and Celtic Park. The origins of some are less clear.
Apparently, Everton play the theme tune from Z-Cars because one of its cast members passed away and was a huge Everton fan, so it was played at Goodison Park once in the mid-sixties and has stayed ever since.
Nottingham Forest adopted Mull of Kintyre by Paul McCartney and Wings when they won the league in 1978 and it’s regularly heard at the City Ground, with their own take on the lyrics: “Oh mist rolling in from the Trent, my desire is always to be here, oh City Ground.”
At Leicester, they’ve run out to the Post Horn Gallop for decades and also play Jersey Budd’s version of When You’re Smiling just before kick-off.
West Ham’s anthem is I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles, but they also play wrestler Triple H’s theme song at half-time. Apparently, he’s a West Ham fan.
Brentford have played Hey Jude since the 1970s, Hull used to have Eye of the Tiger and Wolves used to play Hungry Like the Wolf. Both self-explanatory, as is Met Police FC playing I Fought the Law by The Clash.
Sheffield United’s Greasy Chip Butty Song has its own Wikipedia page. Rockin’ All Over the World is another one of theirs, with the words changed to “Hecky and Stuart McCall”.
You suspect that will last as long as the duo are in post, just like at Norwich where they played Parklife by Blur in honour of Daniel Farke (i.e. Farkelife). But not anymore.
In recent years, Spurs have dabbled with Barry Manilow’s Can’t Smile Without You, although some fans complained it was too slow to get the atmosphere pumping pre-game. Perhaps in response to that, Metallica’s Enter Sandman has been blasted out of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium sound system before their first two home matches of this season.
Some songs can be a little too controversial to play, like the Rocky theme tune at Elland Road, which it was felt could be associated with stirring the club’s hooligan element up a bit too much in the early 1990s. They eventually changed to a combination of Fanfare for the Common Man and the theme music from Chariots of Fire.
Manager Howard Wilkinson was supportive of Rocky being ditched, as he explained in his autobiography, saying: “That seemed to appease everybody but there was still to emerge a certain irony about our game of musical chairs.
“When we used Rocky and Elland Road was supposed to be at its most intimidating, we lost five home games in the season. The following year, with the softly-softly approach, we were the only club in the Football League to enjoy an invincible home record.”
Wolves, supposedly on the advice of West Midlands Police, banned The Liquidator — which you’ll hear at Stamford Bridge and The Hawthorns – in the early 2000s for similar reasons. Their home record remained rubbish, regardless of what was played.
Some of modern football’s changes can get in the way, specifically the Premier League anthem which has to be played as the teams line up on the pitch. You’ll Never Walk Alone now starts after that, rather than as the players are leaving the tunnel.
And then there’s pesky VAR getting in the way of goal music.
Johnson says: “I sit in the fourth official’s dugout at Molineux, we have an iPad logged into the Premier League matchday manager, basically what broadcasters get, so we can tell pretty quickly on the app or by players’ reactions whether something might be questioned.
“However, we have to make a judgement as to whether to play the goal music or not. There was one time we slightly started playing it and then stopped it as there was a VAR check. The last thing we’d want is a ‘VAR check complete, no goal’ after everyone’s been dancing.
“Getting the pre-match music in sync with the players walking out is probably the most complicated thing. Effectively, the players walk out four minutes prior to kick-off, so for a 3pm kick off that’s 2.56pm, and we know the crescendo of our Cafe Del Mar mix is one minute 30 seconds into the track.
“If the players aren’t there on time, we’ll play a longer intro. Or if they’re early we’ve got an outro on repeat. Sometimes when they’re walking you might hear an ever-so-slight dip in the track and then it continues, so that’s when we’re repeating the outro to make it as seamless as possible.
“And then before that track, we’ve got two shorter pieces of music so that we don’t have to make the decision early whether they’re going to walk out on time or not.
“Another complication is if there’s a minute’s silence or applause before kick-off because you can’t go from pyros, music and a lights show to a sombre moment of respect.”
Post-match music needs to capture the mood, too. Newcastle played Movin’ on Up by Primal Scream after drawing against Manchester City, while Leeds, content that they won’t be potentially stirring up trouble like their early 1990s predecessors, play I Predict a Riot by Kaiser Chiefs.
For over a decade, Spurs, if they lost or drew at White Hart Lane, played Crazy in Love by Beyonce. Reasons unknown, although those horns do drown out any full-time grumbles from the stands.
Whether you lament the glitz, glamour and music, it’s undoubtedly here to stay. And if these examples shown by American football are anything to go by, it may only get glitzier, more glamorous and bigger.

NEW YORK — The thing about the time Aaron Boone slammed that table — a dramatic gesture from a manager who prefers equanimity to theatrics — was that the shock of his anger overshadowed the truth of his words.
“We’ve got to play better — period,” Boone said last Saturday, moments before his right hand connected with some Yankee Stadium furniture. “And the great thing is? It’s right in front of us. It’s right here. And we can fix it. It’s right here. We can run away with this thing. And we’ve got the dudes in there to do it.”
It might have rung a little hollow over the weekend. A couple days and a couple wins later . . . well, it still may sound like a bell without a clapper. But Boone’s words looked a little closer to prophetic, if only a tad, after the Yankees collected a 4-2 victory over the Mets in the opener of the second leg of the Subway Series. The Yankees used to win games like this every night. Remember?
Like momentum, a prophecy in baseball is only as good as tomorrow’s starting pitcher. But if the Yankees are ever to recapture the magic of the early days of summer, they will need to pile up nights like this one, in which the lineup toppled an ace and the pitching staff quieted a quality offense. If you only watched this one game, if you had gone the full Rip Van Winkle for August, you could see why, heading into Monday, Baseball-Reference still gave the club a nearly 20 percent chance to win the World Series, a better shot than every team in baseball besides the Dodgers and the Astros.
“The group’s got my belief,” general manager Brian Cashman said a couple of hours before the game. “I believe strongly in them. I think they’re still capable of everything we ever hoped and dreamed.”
For one evening, at least, the team flipped the calendar back to June. The hitters taxed Max Scherzer for four runs. Andrew Benintendi scored a run in the first inning with his legs and delivered a pair of RBI hits later in the game. Aaron Judge ended a nine-game drought between home runs with a solo shot in the third.
And the pitching staff survived a stomach-turning sequence in the seventh when miscommunication in the outfield allowed a popup to clank off the glove of rookie second baseman Oswaldo Cabrera, and Mets designated hitter Daniel Vogelbach followed with a two-run blast. The homer sullied the line of Domingo German, who otherwise kept the Mets scoreless for 6 1/3 innings. The bullpen held firm after the gaffe. In the process, the Yankees (75-48) won consecutive games for the first time since July.
Over the weekend, Judge painted a picture of a lineup troubled by self-centered at-bats and a dugout silenced by persistent failure. During these past two days, he explained late Monday evening, that atmosphere had changed. The Yankees, he said, were “going back to what we did at the beginning of the year, bringing the intensity from the first pitch. You can just feel a little different energy in the dugout throughout the at-bats.”
Judge supplied some of that energy in his second at-bat. It was the rare occasion when he did not enter the batter’s box as the perceived favorite. Scherzer had handled Judge well during their first encounter back in July; Judge struck out twice, unable to connect with Scherzer’s slider. Scherzer struck him out again in the first inning on Monday, continuing a recent skid for the Yankees slugger.
In the nine games leading up to Monday, Judge had hit .133 and slugged a mere .167. He was striking out more than twice as often as he walked. The slump only looked more pronounced because the rest of the lineup, with Giancarlo Stanton on the injured list plus DJ LeMahieu and Anthony Rizzo dealing with minor ailments, had become all the more vulnerable.
After terrorizing American League pitchers for the first four months, Judge’s prey had learned to avoid him. Boone suggested opposing teams had begun treating Judge as pitchers did Barry Bonds in the 2000s and declining to throw strikes. Judge, like Bonds, thrived despite the caution by taking walks and pulverizing the occasional mistake. The pulverization, Boone explained, had slowed in the past couple of weeks.
“I don’t think he’s that far off at all,” Boone said. “There’s a handful of pitches he’s gotten to hit, to do some damage with, that he’s fouled off. There’s been a couple he’s put on the ground, where he’s hit a really hard groundball instead of getting that ball on a line or elevated. He looks really close, to me.”
Boone added, “You’re going to have a week where you aren’t Superman.”
Judge put the cape back on in the third. Scherzer fired a 1-1 fastball. The pitch registered just shy of 96 mph. It arrived low in the strike zone, but close enough to the center of the plate to meet Judge’s barrel. His 47th homer of the season sailed over the right-field fence.
“That’s one of the reasons why I love this game, the little chess match you can play with the pitcher and the catcher,” Judge said. “When you’ve got a future Hall of Famer going like that, and you get to do that, it’s electric.”
The night was far from perfect. But these were the type of games the Yankees won, day after day after day when the future looked so much brighter in the first half. Perhaps it will brighten once more.
The clouds may continue to part. A few injured players are approaching a return. Luis Severino (strained lat) will face hitters in live batting practice on Tuesday. Giancarlo Stanton (Achilles tendinitis) will stand in the box against him. “In a perfect world,” Stanton said before the game, he could rejoin the lineup as early as Thursday in Oakland.
After the game, Boone passed on an opportunity to pound his chest.
“The statement will be made if we’re standing at the end,” Boone said. “We know what we’re capable of. We think we’re capable of being the best team in the world. That’s what we’re working to get to.”
The Yankees are not back. Come on. Not yet. But if they do make it back, if they can play in the fall as they did earlier in the summer, it will look a lot like this.

Iconic Odessa Permian, ‘Friday Night Lights’ coach Gary Gaines dies at 73
Longtime Texas high school football coach Gary Gaines, who led Odessa Permian and was featured in the “Friday Night Lights” book and movie, died on Monday, his family confirmed.
He was 73.
Gaines died in Lubbock, Texas, after a lengthy battle with Alzheimer’s disease, per The Associated Press.
Gaines spent three decades coaching throughout Texas, though most notably at Odessa Permian from 1986-1989. Gaines went 47-6-1 during that stretch and led the team to a perfect season that ended with a state title in 1989.
The 1988 season was the subject of Buzz Bissinger’s 1990 best selling book, “Friday Night Lights,” which was eventually made into a movie in 2004 and then a television show on NBC. The 1988 team, which James “Boobie” Miles missed after injuring his knee, fell in the state semifinals.
Gaines was portrayed by Billy Bob Thornton in the 2004 movie.
Gaines also spent time coaching as an assistant at Texas Tech and the head coach at Abilene Christian. He led Abilene High School and San Angelo Central, worked as the athletic director in Odessa and in Lubbock, and then returned to lead Permian one last time in 2009.
“He taught me what I needed to be successful as a coach, how to coach kids and how to talk to kids to teach them to believe in themselves,” former Odessa coach Ron King told the Odessa American. “I’ve had two men that were father figures to me and CoachGaines was one of them … I just can’t find the words to pay respects. It’s a big loss for the coaching profession. There are a lot of coaches he took under his wing and mentored.”
“He had a lot of young coaches; he was a difference maker, like when you are coaching kids, you are trying to make a difference. I think Coach Gaines did that.” | https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/iconic-permian-friday-night-lights-texas-football-coach-gary-gaines-dies-at-73-043442254.html?src=rss | 2022-08-23T04:46:15Z | https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/iconic-permian-friday-night-lights-texas-football-coach-gary-gaines-dies-at-73-043442254.html?src=rss | false | 1 |
The Coolest, Weirdest, and Best Museums in Nashville
From country music to cars, there’s something for everyone.
A great museum should be more than just a fallback option if your day’s plans are ruined by bad weather. Museums can inspire, inform, and entertain, and Nashville is graced with plenty of options that do all three. From music to cars, high art to low brow, history to mystery, Music City museums have something for just about every taste.
SoBro
Nashville’s reputation as a creative hub was built on the back of country music, and this massive downtown museum showcases the genre from its roots in Appalachia to the modern hitmakers of today. The legends of country are enshrined in the hall of fame, and rotating exhibits highlight performers and songwriters through the decades. Whether you’re a fan of country or not, you can’t tell the story of the region without noting the importance of the musical traditions that shaped the history of the South.
What to know before you go: The CMHoF is open seven days a week from 9 am until 5 pm with an extra hour of time for browsing the exhibits until 6:00 on Fridays. Youth admission is $17.95 and $27.95 for adults, but local families can receive free admission through the Community Counts program.
Capitol Heights
Nashville is a players’ town, and this popular museum in the basement of the Municipal Auditorium pays homage to the musicians who made all those records that live on in history. Focusing on the musicians, engineers, and producers who worked behind the scenes or behind the headliners, exhibits offer fascinating glimpses into the process and equipment that made the stars shine. Priceless artifacts enshrined here include one of Jimi Hendrix’s guitars and the actual stage he performed on in Nashville plus instruments played by luminaries like Garth Brooks, Johnny Cash, and Elton John.
What to know before you go: The Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum is open from 10 am until 5 pm Monday through Saturday, and admission is $28 for adults and $15 for youths.
Downtown
The First is unusual in that it has no permanent collection, depending instead on rotating exhibitions to keep things fresh. The museum attracts some of the most remarkable touring shows from around the globe, sometimes scheduling years in advance. Housed in a former downtown postal office from the 1930’s, the building itself is a work of art, a model of Art Deco and classicism. The museum also offers a robust series of educational programming for children and adults.
What to know before you go: Timed entry reservations are available for admission Thursday through Monday. The museum is closed on Tuesday and Wednesday, and admission is $15 for adults and free for visitors 18 and younger.
Murfreesboro Road
Specializing in European cars, motorcycles, and military vehicles, the Lane Motor Museum is unusual because it strives to maintain its entire collection in driving condition. These aren’t just showpieces; they actually run and driving demonstrations are part of the fun, especially when they fire up the 62-foot-long behemoth LARC-LX amphibious vehicle in the back parking lot. They only have room to display a little more than a quarter of the almost 600-vehicle collection of flying cars, floating cars, three-wheelers, bicycles, etc. at one time, so exhibits rotate frequently.
What to know before you go: The Lane Motor Museum is closed on Tuesday and Wednesday and is open from 10 am until 5 pm Thursday through Monday. Admission is $12 for adults with youth and senior discounts available. Tours of the museum’s vault of undisplayed vehicles are offered on weekends for an additional charge of $10.
Music Row
Operated by the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, Studio B has been known as the birthplace of “The Nashville Sound” since it was constructed in 1957. Named “The House of 1000 Hits,” Studio B was the site of historic recording sessions by icons like Elvis Presley, the Everly Brothers, Eddie Arnold, and Roy Orbison. With apologies to Memphis, the truth is that Elvis recorded more than 240 songs at Studio B, and today you can still stand on the “x” taped on the floor where The King stood as he crooned “Are You Lonesome Tonight.”
What to know before you go: Historic RCA Studio B is open seven days a week from 10:30 am through 3:30 pm. Tickets are available as add-ons to admission to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.
SoBro
Unlike some celebrity museums that are just cobbled-together collections of memorabilia acquired at auctions and displayed for a profit, the Johnny Cash Museum is run by family members of “The Man in Black,” so these are family heirlooms being shared with the public. The self-guided tour takes visitors through Cash’s historic career in country and popular music and shares his impact on the entire industry. As a bonus, you can buy a separate ticket to the Patsy Cline Museum on the floor above the Cash Museum and learn about another country music icon’s meteoric rise and tragic demise.
What to know before you go: The Johnny Cash Museum is open seven days a week from 9 am until 7 pm with an admission of $23.95 for adults and $19.95 for youths ages 6 - 15.
Downtown
Lots of cities lobbied to be the home to this important museum that showcases the contributions made by black artists to almost every genre of music over the centuries. Why did Nashville get it instead of, say, New York City, Chicago, St. Louis or Memphis? Quite simply, because organizers raised the money and put a shovel in the ground to actually build it in the heart of downtown. Once the project was official, memorabilia flowed in from collectors and musicians across the country. The museum is divided into multiple galleries organized by genre and timeframe, and visitors receive an RFI bracelet where they can save playlists, songs, and videos to download and enjoy again after they get home.
What to know before you go: The NMAAM is open from 10 am until 5 pm Tuesday through Saturday and noon until 5 pm on Sunday and Monday. Admission is $24.95 with youth and senior discounts available.
Music Valley Drive
For fans of the campy 1980s television series The Dukes of Hazzard, a visit to Cooter's Place is basically like a pilgrimage to Mecca. Owned and operated by Ben Jones, the actor who played the amiable auto mechanic who kept the Duke Boys’ car running after multiple jumps over the apparently endless variety of washed-out bridges in Hazzard County, this shrine is filled with memorabilia from the show. Other actors from the series occasionally make appearances at the store/museum, and the walls are covered with photos, props and costumes. Visitors can also have their photos made while sitting in some of the famous vehicles from the show.
What to know before you go: Admission is free, and Cooter’s Place is open from 9 am until 7 pm every day.
Germantown
The official museum of the state is a repository of history and artifacts from across the years and across Tennessee. Permanent collections are arranged thematically around important eras of Tennessee history, natural history and even sports memorabilia. Among the collection’s more obscure items are a letter from Andrew Jackson challenging a rival to a duel over a horse race bet (Jackson killed him, by the way,) an Egyptian mummy, a hipbone with a bullet lodged in it from a Civil War battle, a death mask of Napoleon, and the dried-up thumb of a notorious horse thief. Yeah, Tennessee has had some wacky history, for sure.
What to know before you go: The museum is closed on Mondays and open from 10 am to 5 pm Tuesday through Saturday and from noon until 5 pm on Sunday. Admission is free.
Belmont/Hillsboro
Belmont University has long been known for its music program, and among its alumni are famous musicians like Brad Paisley, Trisha Yearwood, and Lee Ann Womack. So it makes sense that the university would curate a remarkable collection of musical instruments as part of an on-campus museum. The Gallery of Iconic Guitars (known colloquially as G.I.G.) features early prototypes of instruments from famous manufacturers like Martin, Gibson, and Fender as well as guitars and mandolins played by famous musicians. The space also includes a small stage for demonstrations, lectures, and performances.
What to know before you go: Admission is $5.00 and the GIG is open Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 10 am to 4:30 pm and Sunday from 1 pm until 4:30 pm.

Another adjunct of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, Hatch Show Print is probably the most famous letterpress print shop in the world. Since 1879, the shop has been producing advertising posters for circuses, music acts, and major events using the traditional letterpress method of carving wooden printing plates that are inked by hand and cranking out prints one at a time. The walls of the shop are lined with shelves heaving under the weight of wooden letters of different sizes and styles used to create the script on the posters, and some of the typefaces they use today were carved decades ago. Hatch offers shop tours and hands-on workshops where visitors can actually get a little ink under their fingernails while creating art.
What to know before you go: Tours take place daily from 10 am until 4 pm and are approximately an hour in duration. Admission can be purchased as part of a visit to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in the adjoining lobby. | https://www.thrillist.com/travel/nashville/best-museums-nashville | 2022-08-23T04:47:18Z | https://www.thrillist.com/travel/nashville/best-museums-nashville | true | 1 |
India's first observatory to monitor space activity to come up in Uttarakhand
Currently, the United States is a dominant player in monitoring space debris with observatories in multiple locations and commercial companies providing additional inputs from across the world.
New Delhi: India's first commercial space situational awareness observatory, to track objects as small as 10 cm in size orbiting the earth, will be set up in the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand by Digantara, a space sector start-up. The space situational awareness (SSA) observatory will help India track any activity in space including that of space debris and military satellites hovering over the region.
Currently, the United States is a dominant player in monitoring space debris with observatories in multiple locations and commercial companies providing additional inputs from across the world.
"The observatory in Uttarakhand will fill the crucial gap in SSA observations in the region as there is a lack of such facilities between Australia and southern Africa," Anirudh Sharma, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Digantara told PTI.
The high-quality observations, along with those of its partner ground-based sensor network, would help improve its ability to monitor events occurring in deep space, especially in the geostationary, medium-Earth, and high-Earth orbits.
"With this data, it would be able to reduce the potential for collisions between satellites and other spacecraft by making more accurate predictions of their location, speed, and trajectory," Sharma said.
The observatory will also give India indigenous capabilities to monitor space activity over the subcontinent, he said, adding that ahead of the war in Ukraine, several Russian satellites were seen hovering over the region.
"If, for example, Chinese satellites are seen over one particular region of India for a long time, having indigenous capability to monitor such activities and not being dependent on countries like the US is a plus for India," Sharma said.
He said India has been monitoring space objects using multi-object tracking radars and the SSA observatory will be a huge boost in the sector.
"With the establishment of the observatory Digantara will be able to supplement its space-based sensors in their mission to monitor satellites and debris in orbits ranging from Low Earth Orbit (LEO) to Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (GEO). This will also bring indigenous capabilities to the nation for both military and civilian applications," a company statement said.
There is an increasing need for efficient collision avoidance systems in highly congested orbital regions like low earth orbit and geosynchronous earth orbit.
The addition of the new observatory will be a part of Digantara's network of observational facilities and was expected to work in tandem with the currently planned constellation of space-based sensors.
"This will improve the effectiveness of tracking and identifying pre-existing resident space objects (RSO), and will result in the creation of a hybrid data pool that will serve both the commercial and the defence sectors of the space industry," Sharma said.
"We are proud to support Digantara's vision and plans in establishing India's first dedicated Space Situational Awareness (SSA) observatories in Uttarakhand," Sudhir Nautiyal, Director Industries in the Government of Uttarakhand was quoted as saying in the statement. | https://telecom.economictimes.indiatimes.com/amp/news/indias-first-observatory-to-monitor-space-activity-to-come-up-in-uttarakhand/93719379 | 2022-08-23T04:48:42Z | https://telecom.economictimes.indiatimes.com/amp/news/indias-first-observatory-to-monitor-space-activity-to-come-up-in-uttarakhand/93719379 | false | 15 |
Education Minister Sarah Mitchell admits there is ‘more to be done’ at Walgett Community College
One Nation MLC Mark Latham has accused Education Minister Sarah Mitchell of using “political spin” to glaze over a hotbed issue in a northwestern NSW community.
Earlier this month, Ms Mitchell and Mr Latham travelled to Walgett Community College in the state’s regional north where parents and students are calling for an investigation into student violence and poor educational outcomes.
Only 119 students enrolled in the local high school last year.
“Every parent that I met was very committed to getting good outcomes for their kids, everyone loves their town and they want to make sure that they’ve got a good high school,” Ms Mitchell told the budget estimates hearing on Tuesday.
“Isn’t that just political spin,” Mr Latham asked.
“You’ve got a divided community and that division is poisoning the confidence in the school.”
During Ms Mitchell’s visit to the school, parent Lisa Smith told ABC Western Plains that her 13-year-old daughter had been “viciously assaulted in the schoolyard by another child” before a video of the incident was posted on social media.
Kylie McKenzie, the mother of a severely disabled 12-year-old, told the ABC she formally asked for him to stay at the local primary school for another year but the NSW Department of Education denied her application.
“Another thing that came though quite strongly was a lot of concern from the community about a lot of the constant negativity about Walgett High School,” Ms Mitchell added before she was cut off.
“There is obviously a need for more to be done at that school, I agree with you, the attendance rates – while we are seeing some positive trends in the right direction, they’re still not where we need them to be.”
Ms Mitchell suggested further training, apprenticeships, doing more to get children engaged and having conversations with the local PCYC as options for addressing the community’s concerns.

The Baltimore Ravens continued to start their 2022 campaign on a strong note with a 24-17 win over the Arizona Cardinals on August 21, 2022 and extended their impressive preseason winning streak to 22 in a row. Plenty of players entered the night with a lot to prove, and many of them didn’t disappoint and some even far exceeded expectations in the exhibition game.
Stock Is Up
TE Isaiah Likely
The fourth-round pick out of Coastal Carolina coasted through the Cardinals’ coverage as he rumbled and willed his way to a phenomenal performance. Likely carried over the momentum from a strong preseason opener and training camp into this game and was the most dominant player on the field in the first half.
In just two-quarters of work, he recorded nearly the same amount of receiving yards as the rest of the team finished with by the end of the game. Likely led the team with eight receptions for 100 receiving yards and hauled in a touchdown with three defenders around him. The aspect of his performance that was even more impressive than sheer numbers themselves was the nuance he showed in accumulating them. He showed an ability to find the soft spots in zone coverage of seasoned pro, made catches against man coverage with a defender draped all over him, and displayed a prowess for breaking tackles and racking up yards after the catch.
CB Damarion ‘Pepe’ Williams
While Likely was the Ravens’ most impressive rookie on offense, his fellow fourth-rounder earned that mantle on the defensive side of the ball with his incredibly strong performance. He excelled in coverage, as a tackler in the open field and made up for the interception he dropped in Week 1 with the first of his career in Week 2. On his lone tackle of the game, he executed it with perfect form and stopped the receiver well short of the line to gain to force a third down that resulted in a turnover on downs the very next play.
ILB Malik Harrison
The 2020 third-round pick entered his third training camp and second preseason with a lot to prove and he played like it in the first half of the game against the Cardinals. In just two quarters, Harrison racked up four tackles including one for loss and half a sack. He was a one-man wrecking machine on Arizona’s last drive before halftime when he made a pair of stops at and behind the line of scrimmage on back-to-back plays near the goal line to force a short field goal attempt. He teamed up with a teammate to bring down his former teammate and fellow 2020 draftmate, Trace McSorley for a sack and after coming unblocked off the edge, brought down the running back for a loss of two yards.
DT Travis Jones
The third-round rookie was an absolute menace and virtually unblockable at times in just his second career game before having to exit late with a hyperextended knee. While this was his last time seeing the field until the regular season, he showed more than enough glimpses both as a run stuffer and interior pass rusher to entice excitement among fans, pundits, and his coaches alike about the impact he can have on the Ravens’ defense in year one and beyond. Even though Jones didn’t register any stats in the box score sheet, he was consistently disruptive and showed off his incredible strength and power with the way he tossed aside offensive linemen like rag dolls.
Backup Quarterbacks
As brightly as a Likely shined on offense, both of the Ravens’ reserve signal callers were almost equally as impressive with the way they played exceptionally well against the Cardinals. Third-year pro Tyler Huntley had already established himself as one the better backup quarterbacks in the league down the stretch last season in place of an injured Lamar Jackson. However, through the first two preseason games of 2022, he has made a strong case for being one of the better quarterbacks in the league period with his improved accuracy, pocket presence, and ability to throw on the move instead of taking off to run when the play breaks down. He went 13-of-14 for 129 passing yards and a touchdown and led two scoring drives in the first half.
Undrafted rookie Anthony Brown had a near flawless performance as well outside of one ill-advised decision in the fourth quarter that resulted in the team’s only turnover of the game. He went 10-of-13 for 91 passing yards and threw a pair of touchdowns. Whether Huntley gets traded this year or next offseason, he is positioned to be the Ravens’ next developmental dual-threat quarterback.
ILB Josh Ross
The undrafted rookie out of Michigan continued to impress after a strong NFL debut in Week 1 with an even stronger outing in Week 2 of the preseason. He appears to have picked up where he left off in his breakout senior season with the Wolverines in 2021 where first-year Ravens defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald called plays before returning to the organization this offseason.
Ross was flying all around the field making tackles, filling and shooting gaps in the run game, and excelled in coverage as well. He finished with five total tackles and earned a 90-plus Pro Football Focus grade for the second week in a row. The first-year pro has the makings of being the next undrafted gem at the inside linebacker position that thrives on both defense and special teams.
DT Isaiah Mack
Likely wasn’t the only player with his first name to stand out and Jones wasn’t the only interior defensive lineman that flashed his potential as a pass rusher in this game. The fourth-year pro recorded three total tackles and had a couple of key pressures including one on the Cardinals’ first drive of the game that forced an incompletion and resulted in a missed field goal on fourth down. Mack only appeared in two games with the Ravens last season and recorded a sack. While he’d be an ideal candidate for the practice squad if cut by the Ravens, he most likely wouldn’t clear waivers given the increasing value of interior pass rushers around the league.
RB Tyler Badie
The sixth-round rookie had a relatively quiet NFL debut in the preseason opener but was much more involved in Week 2 against the Cardinals. He showed some nice flashes and looked strong running in between the tackles but was most impressive as a pass catcher out of the backfield and as a pass protector in the backfield. Badie had key blitz pickup of a nickel corner in the fourth quarter made Brown’s second touchdown pass possible. He finished with 39 scrimmage yards on 14 touches and scored his first career touchdown on a short thee-yard pass in the third quarter.
OG Ben Cleveland
The second-year pro has bounced back with a vengeance since taking a little more time to pass his conditioning test and is likely the front runner to emerge as the victor in the competition for the starting left guard spot. While the Ravens’ only produced 75 yards in the ground game, it wasn’t a result of poor blocking on Cleveland’s part. The mountain of a man continued to impose his will on his opponents both as a run blocker and pass protector in exhibition action for the second straight week. He took snaps at both guard spots and his level of play didn’t drop off at all in the transition after others shuffled around to different spots.
CB Kyle Fuller
The eight-year veteran had a rough training camp and looked underwhelming according to reports from ESPN’s Jamison Hensley heading into the game. He showed off the instincts and ball skills that made him a two-time Pro Bowler and a First Team All-Pro with the Chicago Bears on the first of the Ravens’ two interceptions in the game. Fuller will provide the Ravens will quality depth at cornerback behind starters Marlon Humphrey and Marcus Peters who recently returned to practice.
P Jordan Stout
The Ravens had outstanding performances by fourth-round rookies in all three phases of the game with the masterful outing that the former Penn State Nittany Lion had on special teams. All three of Stout’s punts pinned the Cardinals inside their 20-yard with two being downed inside the five-yard line. While he didn’t get to attempt a field goal, he still got to show off his versatility as a placekicker by successfully making an extra point attempt on the Ravens’ final touchdown and he handled all kickoff duties after Justin Tucker kicked the first of the game.
WR Raleigh Webb
The undrafted rookie out of Citadel continued to show his ability to make plays downfield for a second straight week on his first career touchdown. He connected with Brown on a 38-yard strike down the seam of the defense and stiff-armed a defender on his way to the end zone. He finished with the second most receiving yards on the team with 49 on just two catches.
OLB Chuck Wiley
The wild week for the undrafted rookie in which he was released and brought back after the initial round of cuts came full circle late in the game when he helped the Ravens’ pass rush come alive and turn up the heat late in the game and secure the win. He recorded 1.5 sacks on back-to-back plays on the Cardinals’ final drive to set up a third-and-25. On his first sack, Wiley beat the right tackle around the edge with a nice rip move to take down the quarterback for a loss of seven yards and teamed up with his fellow undrafted rookie Rayshad Nichols on the very next play for a loss of eight more yards. The Ravens are light on healthy outside linebackers at the moment and his performance against Arizona could give him an edge over Jeremiah Moon and Daelin Hayes heading into the last week of the preseason.
DB Ar’Darius Washington
The second-year pro was on track to be on the stock down list after allowing the touchdown that made it a one-score game. However, he rebounded nicely with a pair of clutch pass breakups on the Cardinals’ final drive of the game to force a turnover on downs and help secure the win for the Ravens.
Stock Is Down
IOL Ben Powers and OL Tyre Phillips
The two offensive linemen are competing for the starting left guard spot but are also being experimented with at different positions. Neither performed well at their alternate spots and further proved that they are best suited playing between the center and tackle, not playing center or tackle. Phillips was flagged three times while playing left tackle including two false starts and continues to struggle slowing down speed rushers off the edge. Powers blocked well but struggled to snap the ball in his trial by fire at center, a position he has never played before at any level.
OLB Daelin Hayes
After being one of the stars of the offseason program through Mandatory Mini Camp, the second-year pro has not been as disruptive as he was before the pads came on or replicate the same level of success that he had in the preseason that he had last year as a rookie. Against the Cardinals, he didn’t generate much of a pass rusher against their subpar offensive tackle and didn’t look good in coverage. He allowed a few long gains and key conversions to running backs coming out of the backfield and finished with three tackles. Hayes played well into the second half so his roster spot is far from secured despite being the only viable option on the roster that could backup temporarily start in the place of Tyus Bowser at the SAM outside linebacker spot as he works his way back from a torn Achilles suffered in the 2021 regular-season finale.
DB Brandon Stephens
The second-year pro showed some nice ability in coverage at times but also several poor examples of poise, composure, and technique. He got flagged for unnecessary roughness on the first play from scrimmage of the game for shoving a wide receiver to the ground well out of bounds and struggled to keep up with the Cardinals’ undersized wideout Andy Isabella in coverage for most of the game. He finished with a team-leading six solo tackles, most of which came against Isabella who finished with five receptions for 54 receiving yards
ILB Zakoby McClain
Coming out of college, the former Auburn standout was praised for his natural feel and ability to excel in coverage. He not only did not display that prowess but he struggled in that area against the Cardinals and allowed some key conversions in the second half. McClain finished with four total tackles but was outperformed and outshined by the stellar performance of Ross.
CB Daryl Worley
Coming off a preseason debut in which he recorded an interception, the seven-year veteran had a poor outing on both defense and special teams. He missed the initial tackle that allowed a 48-yard return on the Ravens’ second kickoff of the game and had a rough day in coverage as well. While he finished with three total tackles and half a sack, his overall performance was uninspiring.
DT Broderick Washington
The third-year pro entered training camp already on the roster bubble and while he hasn’t looked bad in the preseason, he has been outplayed by other players at his position such as Jones, Mack, Nichols, and Aaron Crawford. He’ll need a strong performance in the preseason finale to gain ground on them in the running for the fifth or maybe sixth spot on the defensive line depth chart.
After an outstanding NFL debut in which he led the team in receiving yards and hauled in an impressive touchdown, the undrafted rookie free agent recorded just one catch for eight yards. While the amount and quality of targets that come his way aren’t in his control, getting open and maximizing the opportunities he does get are well within it. The competition for the last spot or two at the wide receiver position got even tighter with the recent addition of veteran Demarcus Robinson so Bridges and his fellow longshots will need to step their game up in the preseason finale on both offense and special teams to earn a roster spot in Baltimore or elsewhere. | https://heavy.com/sports/ravens-rookies-isaiah-likely-tyler-huntley/ | 2022-08-23T05:00:04Z | https://heavy.com/sports/ravens-rookies-isaiah-likely-tyler-huntley/ | true | 3 |

'It is my fault': Actor Akshay Kumar on his films flopping
'I want to dismantle the way I think and what kind of films I should do', said Akshay Kumar at the trailer launch of his next, Cuttputlli, which is releasing digitally.
Published: 21st August 2022 10:06 PM | Last Updated: 21st August 2022 10:09 PM | A+A A-
Akshay Kumar has opened up on his recent films not performing at the box office. Akshay's last three films, Bachchhan Akshay's last three films, Bachchhan Paandey, Samrat Prithviraj and Raksha Bandhan, all released
Paandey, Samrat Prithviraj and Raksha Bandhan, all released theatrically, but could not recover their respective budgets and were deemed failures. While Raksha Bandhan was enmeshed in an online boycott campaign, along with Aamir Khan-starrer Laal Singh Chaddha, Hindi films in general have been struggling to work in the post-pandemic world.
Speaking at the trailer launch of his next, Cuttputlli, which is releasing digitally, Akshay said, "If my films are not working, it is our fault. It is my fault. I have to make the changes, I have to understand what the audience wants. I want to dismantle the way I think and what kind of films I should do. Nobody else is to be blamed but me.”
The actor denied that releasing films on OTT is a safer option compared to theatres.
"It is not safe. (OTT) also requires people to say if they like the film or not. It is not a safety net. Here also the media, the critics and the audiences are watching it. They give their opinion whether they like it or not. So, there’s nothing called safe. You have to work hard and that's it," Akshay said.
Directed by Ranjit M Tiwari, Cuttputlli is the Hindi remake of Ratsasan (2018). The film stars Akshay as a cop on the hunt for a serial killer. It will release on Disney+ Hotstar on September 2.

TOKYO (AP) — Asian shares were trading lower Tuesday, echoing a broad sell-off on Wall Street amid speculation about another interest rate raise from the U.S. Federal Reserve.
Benchmarks in Asia slid across the region in morning trading, including Japan, China, South Korea and Australia. The latest market slide comes as investors grapple with uncertainty over when the highest inflation in decades will ease significantly, how much the Fed will have to raise interest rates in order to get it under control and how much the rate hikes will slow the economy.
Investors will be looking for insight into these unknowns later this week, when the Federal Reserve holds its annual meeting in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
“The downbeat mood in Wall Street is playing out in the Asia session as well, and although another round of rate cuts to benchmark lending rate in China yesterday may aid to cushion some losses, overall upside could still remain limited amid the shunning of risks,” said Yeap Jun Rong, market strategist at IG in Singapore.
The People’s Bank of China cut a lending rate Monday, a week after it cut interest rates.
Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 lost 1.3% in morning trading to 28,413.04. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 slid 0.5% to 7,009.30. South Korea's Kospi dipped nearly 1.0% to 2,438.19. Hong Kong's Hang Seng shed 0.7% to 19,520.36, while the Shanghai Composite fell 0.3% to 3,267.19.
“Investors are being cautious as continuous risk-off flows have hit global markets,” said Anderson Alves at ActivTrades, noting that rising gas prices were a big risk, especially for Europe.
The S&P 500 had its biggest slide since mid-June, sliding 2.1%, nearly doubling its losses from last week, when it broke a four-week winning streak. The Dow Jones Industrial Average slumped 1.9% and the Nasdaq dropped 2.5%.
Technology companies and retailers had some of the heaviest losses Monday. Smaller company stocks also lost ground, pulling the Russell 2000 index 2.1% lower.
Bond yields gained ground. The yield on the 10-year Treasury, which influences rates on home mortgages and other loans, rose to 3.03% from 2.97% late Friday.
The broader market's losses come on the heels of a weekslong rally. Investors are trying to figure out where the economy goes from here as stubbornly hot inflation hurts businesses and consumers. Record-high inflation also has investors focusing on central banks and their efforts to fight high prices without further damaging economic growth.
“You’ve had quite a rally and there’s reason to not be sure where we’re going from here,” said Tom Martin, senior portfolio manager with Globalt Investments. “There's still decent potential for a recession.”
Minutes last week from the Federal Reserve's July board meeting affirmed plans for more rate hikes despite signs of weaker economic activity. Traders worry aggressive steps to slow the economy might go too far and bring on a recession.
Fed Chair Jerome Powell is scheduled to give a speech on Friday morning at the central bank's annual meeting in Jackson Hole, which starts Thursday. The Fed is holding its meeting following a heavy week of company and economic data that showed inflation is still squeezing the economy, but consumer spending remains resilient.
“I don’t think we're out of the woods yet on inflation,” Martin said. “We still don’t really know how inflation is going to pan out and what the Fed is going to do.”
In energy trading, benchmark U.S. crude lost 54 cents to $90.23 a barrel. Brent crude, the international standard, added 77 cents to $97.25 a barrel.
In currency trading, the U.S. dollar fell to 137.14 Japanese yen from 137.49 yen. The euro was little changed at 99 cents.

EXPLAINER: Why the term ‘genocide’ matters in Ukraine war
WASHINGTON (AP) — When President Joe Biden declares Russia’s Ukraine war “genocide,” it isn’t just another strong word. Calling a campaign that’s aimed at wiping out a targeted group “genocide” not only increases pressure on a country to act, it can oblige it to. That’s partly because of a genocide treaty approved by the U.N. General Assembly after World War II, signed by the United States and more than 150 other nations. | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2712445468686/common-pleas-courtof-portage-county-ohio | 2022-08-23T05:29:36Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2712445468686/common-pleas-courtof-portage-county-ohio | true | 12721 |

UN agency to build 2,300 earthquake-resilient houses in Afghanistan

UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency announced the start of a more than USD 14 million community-based construction effort to build 2,300 earthquake-resilient houses to help residents in the southeastern Afghanistan region devastated by the deadly June 22 earthquake. Under the plan, UNHCR is providing materials and supporting building costs for the construction of 2,000 winterized homes in both Giyan and Barmal districts of Paktika Province and 300 homes in Spera District of Khost Province.
"This initiative demonstrates UNHCR's sustained solidarity and support to people affected by the disaster -- in the coming months 2,300 families will have new, resilient, winterized homes," said UNHCR Representative Leonard Zulu during an assessment mission in Barmal, Paktika Province. "UNHCR started distributing emergency shelter two days after the earthquake, and we are now aiming to meet urgent shelter needs to build back better." Earthmoving equipment contracted by UNHCR has started site clearance in Barmal and trucks are delivering construction materials as snows are expected by mid-November.
"The Khost and Paktika areas have generously hosted thousands of refugees in recent years, some of whom were also affected by the earthquake," Zulu said. "UNHCR's shelter initiative will ensure homes for the most-affected households." Over recent weeks, UNHCR teams have met with communities to present the project, identify the worst-affected families, and organize community groups to implement the community-based scheme.
In addition to building materials, households participating in the project will receive US$700 for labour. Engineers working with UNHCR's partners will monitor construction so relevant guidance is followed. Each family will be provided with solar panels for lighting and a bukhari space heater for burning wood during winter months, as well as materials to construct an outdoor latrine. Bahrain's Royal Humanitarian Foundation recently signed a USD 1 million agreement with UNHCR to support the housing scheme. Additionally, UNHCR and the United Nations Development Programme have launched a joint programme to improve access to community services like health centres, schools, and water systems in the three districts.
"UNHCR has included the three districts in its Priority Areas of Return and Reintegration (PARRs) project since refugees as well as returned IDPs reside in the areas. The PARR initiative will ensure sustained support to enhance sustainable returns, reintegration and community resilience," the UN agency said in a statement. In the wake of the 5.9 earthquakes that reportedly killed more than 1,000 people and injured many others, UNHCR distributed 3,592 family tents to provide emergency shelter for more than 25,000 people alongside household supplies and hygiene items for more than 11,200 people, complementing emergency assistance delivered by partner agencies.
Over the past four decades, Afghanistan has been battered by conflicts and natural disasters that have left millions facing famine and starvation. The latest estimates indicate that some 24 million Afghans, more than half the country's population, are in need of humanitarian assistance. There are some 3.4 million conflict-displaced persons in Afghanistan, as well as 1.57 million climate-displaced people, making it one of the most complex humanitarian crises in the world. (ANI)

By time it hits the streaming service he will likely be totally targeted on the crimson ball moderately than the crimson carpet, main his aspect’s cost towards South Africa at Old Trafford, however the movie makes it clear how shut he got here to strolling away.
While there are stirring sequences from his golden summer time of 2019, when he steered England to World Cup glory at Lord’s and conjured an all-time Ashes basic at Headingley, the narrative is formed by disaster and trauma.
Stokes confronts his 2017 arrest in Bristol, the following trial and eventual acquittal on prices of affray extra totally than ever earlier than, overtly resentful a few lack of assist from some within the England hierarchy and pondering if he was “playing for the wrong people”. He additionally affords a touching entrance row seat to his last days with father Ged, who died in 2020 of mind most cancers throughout the course of filming.
“People might have an opinion on me from watching me on a cricket field, or from press conferences, but they won’t know what I am away from that. They will walk away knowing a lot more about me,” Stokes stated.
“I made a real effort, I wanted it to be genuine, to be me. This wasn’t about me saying ‘I’ve got a documentary on Amazon, check me out’. I didn’t want it be any bullshit ‘PR’ stuff .
“At no level did I ever need it to be set as much as look good. There wasn’t a script written that stated ’18 months in we will have Ben have a psychological breakdown and take day trip of the sport’. But now I take a look at that and it was actually essential that I gave as a lot as I presumably may in that interval of my life and put it into the movie.
“I wouldn’t say this is a documentary about cricket. It’s about my life, stuff I’ve gone through, stuff I’ve had to overcome.
“I believe it can assist individuals. If it helps one particular person, I’ll be very proud. I made a decision to do that, to indicate it to the world and I’m happy with the stuff I’ve managed to open up and speak about.”

“That bit is … attention-grabbing. I’m stunned it is nonetheless in there, however I’m glad it is in there,” he stated.
“Suit is only a phrase I used. I’ve not thrown any names or anybody underneath the bus, it is not what I’m about. I’d by no means title and disgrace somebody, it is simply pointless. But the particular person, in the event that they watch, is aware of precisely who I’m on about.” | https://thewall.fyi/stokes-opens-up-on-facing-mental-breakdown/ | 2022-08-23T05:42:35Z | https://thewall.fyi/stokes-opens-up-on-facing-mental-breakdown/ | false | 1 |
NASA's Artemis I is 'go' for Aug 29 launch as Flight Readiness Review concludes
- Country:
- United States
NASA's Artemis I, the first in a series of increasingly complex missions, is all set for an August 29 launch as the mission has completed Flight Readiness Review (FRR) - an in-depth assessment of the readiness of the agency's Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft to support the uncrewed flight on its mission beyond the Moon and return to Earth.
"The Flight Readiness Review for NASA's Artemis I mission has concluded, and teams are proceeding toward a two-hour launch window that opens at 8:33 a.m. EDT Monday, August 29, from Kennedy Space Center's Launch Pad 39B in Florida," NASA said in a statement.
The key objective of the Artemis I mission is to thoroughly test the integrated systems before crewed missions by operating the spacecraft in a deep space environment, testing Orion's heat shield, and recovering the crew module after reentry, descent, and splashdown.
According to the agency, a successful launch on August 29 would result in a mission duration of approximately 42 days, with a targeted Orion splashdown on October 10.
#Artemis I, you are go for launch. 🌙🚀The mission completed its flight readiness review, and it was decided that everything is on schedule for a launch on Aug. 29. We are going to the Moon! https://t.co/l5lXCtTooy pic.twitter.com/cN9pnL2JnF

Indian tennis star Sania Mirza announced on a social media post that she will be unable to compete at the US Open due to an injury to her forearm.
For the 36-year-old, who announced earlier this year that this will be her last season on tour, the New York Grand Slam was expected to be her last Major appearance. The ill-timed injury though may now change her retirement plans, she added.
“A quick update. I just have some not so great news,” she wrote in an Instagram post.
“I hurt my forearm/elbow while playing in Canada (two) weeks ago and obviously didn’t realise how bad it was until I got my scans yesterday and unfortunately I have infact torn a little bit of my tendon. I will be out for a (few) weeks and have pulled out of (the) US Open.
“This isn’t ideal and it’s terrible timing and it will change some of my retirement plans but I will keep you all posted.”
The six-time Grand Slam champion had reached the semifinal of WTA Canadian Masters in Toronto with first-time partner Madison Keys.
Earlier, the World No 23 partnered Croatia’s Mate Pavic to reach the semifinal of the mixed doubles event at Wimbledon for the first time in her career. More recently, her last tournament appearance, was a second round finish with Lucie Hradecka at the Cincinnati Masters.
It’s uncertain what Mirza’s schedule will be once she recovers from the injury as the season will continue post US Open. If she doesn’t extend her retirement plans beyond 2022, Wimbledon will have been her final Major appearance. | https://scroll.in/field/1031083/indian-tennis-sania-mirza-pulls-out-of-us-open-due-to-injury-says-retirement-plans-might-change | 2022-08-23T05:57:10Z | https://scroll.in/field/1031083/indian-tennis-sania-mirza-pulls-out-of-us-open-due-to-injury-says-retirement-plans-might-change | true | 2 |

Bhubaneswar, Aug 20 (PTI) The Odisha government has deployed medical teams in the districts, which have been flooded by incessant rain, to take measures to prevent waterborne diseases like diarrhoea, an official said on Saturday.
The proactive approach came after at least 17 people died of diarrhoea and hundreds were infected in several districts due to the outbreak that began July-end.
Around four lakh people in 12 districts are reeling under the flood in the Mahanadi river basin due to the downpour with a low pressure and depression.
Many other rivers have swollen after heavy rain pounded northern Odisha.
There is a risk of spreading waterborne diseases like cholera and jaundice due to consumption of contaminated water amid a shortage of fresh drinking water sources with many areas remaining marooned.
Public Health Director Niranjan Mishra urged people to drink water after boiling it or using halazone tablets, which act as a disinfectant.
Medical teams have been deployed to reach the marooned areas for treating people who have minor ailments, providing medicines or taking them to the clinics if required, Mishra told reporters in Bhubaneswar.
The teams have been directed to spread awareness among the people to avoid drinking contaminated water and maintain hygiene.
"They have been told to evacuate pregnant women," he said, adding that the department is monitoring the situation.
He also said four snakebite incidents have been reported amid the flood and their condition was better now. PTI HMB BDC BDC

A PIL in the Supreme Court last week by the Federation of Medical and Sales Representatives Association of India has again put the doctor-pharmaceutical firm relationship under scrutiny. FMRAI alleges gifts were the catalyst for the high incidence of prescription of Dolo 650, an analgesic, when Covid was raging. The hearing will resume next month. The broader issue, however, embodies a universal regulatory challenge. Two unique features of healthcare account for it. Demand for it is often urgent and there’s a huge information asymmetry between doctor and patient. It puts doctors in a commanding position. Patients who need quick advice and know little about medicine are perfect patsies for prescriptions influenced by pharma companies’ inducements. The opioid crisis in the US was a particularly shocking demonstration of this. Pain-management pills were prescribed by doctors across the US, their addictive and harmful after-effects hidden or ignored. It took years for the crisis to be officially acknowledged. Litigation and finally bankruptcy filings by drug manufacturers followed. But it’s an open question whether the regulatory failure was addressed fully.
In the US, as in India, there’s no shortage of rules. For pharma firms there’s a voluntary code on marketing practices, in place since January 2015. The Indian Medical Council regulates the conduct of doctors through powers flowing from statutory legislation. But both these regulations are bound to be toothless because misconduct is expected to be addressed within the fraternity. Costs of such a system can be very high in India, where out-of-pocket medical expenditure is 55% of citizens’ total spend, as compared to the global average of 18%. Plus, plugging medicines marketed by companies that are making doctors happy can lead to over-prescription, with potentially serious consequences.
The answer is not heavy-handed regulation. GoI should aim to neutralise doctor-pharma “deals” by effectively using its existing programme of bulk purchases and sales of generic drugs – Pharma Inc pushes branded drugs. Bulk buying provides a price discount of 50-90% over branded medicines. However, it’s not very effective because GoI distribution is limited. The smartest solution is to use the existing network of private chemists. Certainly for commonly prescribed drugs, such as analgesics, awareness and availability of generics can substantially reduce the scope of shady persuasion of doctors. A doctor’s diagnosis and her prescription can’t be undermined. But the misuse of this authority can be minimised.

Women considered as belonging to weaker sections, need to prioritise their inconvenience: HC
August 22, 2022, Updated on : Mon Aug 22 2022 13:34:53 GMT+0000

The law considers women as a class belonging to the weaker section of society that needs more protection, and hence, their inconvenience has to be given priority, the Bombay High Court said, while transferring a matrimonial dispute case from Pune to Mumbai at the woman's request.
A single bench of Justice S M Modak passed the order on August 17, while hearing two petitions of a woman and her estranged husband. A copy of the order was made available on Monday.
The couple has been embroiled in a matrimonial dispute, and they had filed two separate applications in the local courts of Pune and Thane.
The husband—a resident of Pune—sought for transfer of the application filed in the Thane court, while the Mumbai-based woman sought transfer of the Pune case to Thane.
The man, in his plea, said he has custody of their two minor children, who were cared for by his mother and sister, and hence, he would not be able to keep travelling to Thane.
The wife, in her petition, said that she was unemployed and would not be able to travel to Pune.
While ruling in favour of the woman, Justice Modak noted that the husband has his family to look after the children and has not laid out any other reason for not wanting to travel to Thane.
"The fact that the applicant (wife) is a lady, her inconvenience needs to be given more priority because the law considers woman as a class belonging to the weaker section of society and needs more protection," the court said.
It further held that the woman had come up with a grievance that while living with her husband, she was ill-treated and was apprehensive about again visiting the same city.

Ghanaian actor Kalybos has expressed nuptial intentions for Afropop singer Gyakie.
He was speaking to Accra-based Angel FM’s Okyeame Quophi.
Responding to a question about which celebrity he’d like to marry, the comedian revealed, “I’d like to marry 16 celebrities.”
Offering a specific name the so called ‘Bos’ added, “but if I get, I would love to marry Gyakie.”

CHICAGO, March 29, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- After recent supply limitations due to the pandemic, Dinobi is pleased to announce that its skin-focused and plant-based laundry detergent is back in stock and widely available after an exciting switch to a new manufacturer. Dinobi Detergent is made with four simple plant-derived ingredients that are gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin yet highly effective in tackling even your toughest laundry stains.
Created by couple-preneurs Sylvia and Augustine Emuwa, Dinobi Detergent was made with precious skin in mind. "We believe that every life is precious and your body is the vessel that makes your life possible. We are Dinobi, which means precious in Igbo because, at our core, we want to make products that are 100% safe for you and your body," states the Emuwas.
The idea sparked after the husband and wife duo noticed their youngest child's diaper rash was not improving even after switching to cloth diapers. Determined to help their newborn, the Emuwas began researching all of the ingredients in their laundry detergent. After noticing the alarming number of chemicals, Sylvia decided to create a gentle formula that helped cure her child's diaper rash and put a stop to her husband's eczema breakouts.
Driven by intention, they took an entrepreneurial leap of faith in April 2019 and started Dinobi Detergent LLC, a brand that focuses on the well-being of its users. Their passion to provide the best possible product for their family and friends shaped their mission to change how we do laundry with less waste, more inclusivity, and above all, authentically natural ingredients!
Dinobi Detergent's 100% plant-based formula is earth-safe, nontoxic, and made with water, plant-based surfactants, vegetable-derived fatty alcohol, and essential oils, making it pure enough that it runs clear. The formula is highly concentrated, so you can pour less while still eliminating tough stains. It is safe for all fabrics and can be used in both HE and top-loaders. Dinobi Detergent is also a force to be reckoned with when it comes to eliminating pet odors from bedding and clothing. It even bounces ammonia, so there is no need for additional products for those using cloth diapers.
Dinobi Detergent is now available for purchase online via http://www.dinobidetergent.com and BLK + GRN for $18.99 per 32 oz recyclable bottle. Soon to be available at Amazon.
It is also accessible in-store in Chicago at The Silver Room, Eco & The Flamingo, The Plant Chicago, and Scratch Goods.

Peak District has 'successful breeding year' for most threatened bird of prey
The National Trust has had its most successful breeding year for rare hen harriers in the Peak District for more than a decade.
The charity said seven youngsters have successfully fledged from multiple nests on National Trust land in the High Peak. This follows work with the RPSB and Peak District Raptor Group to encourage birds of prey to live in the national park.
The trust said it had undertaken work including cutting heather to encourage a more diverse range of moorland plants including sphagnum moss, bilberry and cottongrass, helping support wildlife such as small mammals that the birds rely on for food.
The trust is also working with its tenants to ensure they manage the land to support more birds of prey in the area.
Hen harriers are England’s most threatened bird of prey, due to historic persecution and because they prey on red grouse chicks to feed their young, bringing them into conflict with commercial shooting estates.
They have seen numbers increase from a low in 2013 where no birds successfully fledged from nests in England, leaving the bird on the brink of extinction in the country.
Craig Best, general manager of the National Trust in the Peak District, said, “A great deal of work has gone into encouraging more breeding pairs of these majestic birds to the Peak District. However, we want to see more of these important birds of prey in the High Peak, as they play an important role in creating the right ecological balance in the landscape.“
Visitors and residents are being encouraged to help with conservation efforts for the birds by staying on footpaths and keeping dogs on leads during the ground nesting season from the beginning of March to the end of July. | https://www.itv.com/news/central/2022-08-23/peak-district-has-most-successful-breeding-year-for-hen-harriers-in-ten-years | 2022-08-23T07:06:13Z | https://www.itv.com/news/central/2022-08-23/peak-district-has-most-successful-breeding-year-for-hen-harriers-in-ten-years | true | 1 |

The Taliban released a video showing its deputy emir and interior minister Sirajuddin Haqqani and other top terrorist commanders finishing preparations for a large-scale suicide assault against U.S. forces based in eastern Afghanistan in 2010.
The video, which was circulated by Taliban supporters on social media, shows the whose who of the Haqqani Network, the powerful Taliban faction that is listed by the U.S. as a Foreign Terrorist Organization, seeing off the team of suicide bombers who attacked Forward Operating Base (FOB) Fenty on Nov. 12, 2010. FOB Fenty was located at the Jalalabad City airport in the Behsud district in Nangarhar.
The attack was ultimately repelled by a quick reaction force of U.S. and Afghan troops. Six attackers were killed and two suicide vests were recovered.
In the video, Sirajuddin Haqqani, who at the time was the operational commander of the Haqqani Network, was joined by his brother Badruddin Haqqani, Qari Zakir, the Taliban’s chief of suicide bombers, Mullah Sangeen Zadran, a dangerous Haqqani leader, and Ghani Muhammad, an Al Qaeda-linked military commander based in Pakistan.
The terrorist leaders are first seen sitting in the room with the suicide team. The group then prays together. Afterward, Sirajuddin and his deputies embrace the members of the suicide team as they leave to execute the attack.
Sirajuddin has since risen to the top tier of the Taliban’s leadership. He currently serves as one of two deputy leaders of the Taliban, as well as the interior minister of the Taliban’s Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.
Badruddin, Sangeen, and Zakir have since been killed in U.S. counterterrorism operations.
Badruddin was added to the list of Specially Designated Global Terrorists on May 11, 2011. He was a member of the Miramshah Shura, one of several Taliban regional military commands, and direct attacks in southeastern Afghanistan. “The foreign fighters supported by Badruddin include al Qaeda fighters,” Jason Blazakis, the chief of the State Department’s Terrorist Designations Unit, told The Long War Journal in May 2011.
Badruddin was also one of several handlers for the fighters involved in the June 28, 2011 assault on the Intercontinental Hotel in Kabul. He was recorded while he issued instructions to one of the fighters, and was heard laughing during the attack that killed 11 civilians and two Afghan policemen [see LWJ report, Haqqani Network directed Kabul hotel assault by phone from Pakistan].
Qari Zakir, the Haqqani Network’s chief of suicide operations, was also listed as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist. Zakir, who is also known as Abdul Rauf, was also Haqqani Network’s “operational commander in Kabul, Takhar, Kunduz, and Baghlan provinces” in Afghanistan. Additionally, Zakir directed the group’s “training program, which includes instruction in small arms, heavy weapons, and basic improvised explosive device (IED) construction.”
Zakir’s ties to Al Qaeda and other foreign fighters were extensive. He is thought to have been killed alongside Hamza bin Laden, the son of Osama bin Laden and a rising star in Al Qaeda, in a U.S. drone strike in Pakistan’s Kurram tribal agency in September 2019.
Mullah Sangeen Zadran, like many top Haqqani Network leaders, was also listed as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist. According to State, Sangeen helped “lead fighters in attacks across Southeastern Afghanistan, and is believed to have planned and coordinated the movement of hundreds of foreign fighters into Afghanistan.” He served as the Taliban’s military commander and then shadow governor of Paktika province in eastern Afghanistan, as well as a senior aid to Sirajuddin before he was killed in a U.S. drone strike in the Ghulam Khan area of Pakistan’s tribal agency of North Waziristan on Sept. 5, 2013.
Four years before his death, Sangeen openly admitted that the bond between the “brothers” of Al Qaeda and the Taliban were unbreakable. In an interview released in Sept. 2009 by As Sahab, Al Qaeda’s official media outlet, Sangeen said: “We do not see any difference between Taliban and Al Qaeda,” and the two groups “are all one and are united by Islam.” Sangeen also noted that Osama bin Laden “has pledged allegiance” to Taliban emir Mullah Muhammad Omar “and has reassured his leadership again and again.”
Sangeen was so revered by the Taliban that the group put up a billboard with his image on it in Khost province less than a month after the group took control of Afghanistan.
Ghani Muhammad is a military commander who is known to be close to Sirajuddin. In the past he was based out of Mir Ali in Pakistan’s tribal agency of North Waziristan. Mir Ali is a known hub for foreign jihadists, including Al Qaeda. A U.S. intelligence source told FDD’s Long War Journal that Muhammad previously worked with Abu Kasha al Iraqi, a top Al Qaeda military commander who was based in Mir Ali and is thought to have been killed in a U.S. drone strike in 2012.

Ahead of its Q4 earnings release on 25 August, former pandemic darling Peloton [PTON] has announced plans to cut jobs, raise product prices by 25-30% and close some stores.
“Job one is generating free cash flow by right-sizing our inventory commitments and converting many of our fixed costs to variable costs because that cost structure better aligns with the seasonal revenue of the business,” Peloton CEO Barry McCarthy wrote in a 12 August memo detailing the internet-connected fitness equipment company’s turnaround plan.
McCarthy, formerly CFO of Netflix [NFLX] and Spotify [SPOT], was appointed as Peloton CEO back in the third quarter to help the company become cash flow positive.
“These changes are essential if Peloton is ever going to become cash flow positive. Cash is oxygen. Oxygen is life. We simply must become self-sustaining on a cash flow basis,” McCarthy added.
The news has buoyed the Peloton share price, which has risen from $9.50 when markets opened on 1 August to $11.71 at the close on 19 August – an increase of 23%. The stock is up 42% from its 52-week low of $8.22 on 15 July. That said, the shares are down more than 67% since the start of the year.
Revenue fell in Q3
The company’s shares fell to $12.90 on 10 May after it reported disappointing third-quarter earnings. Lower demand for its bikes resulted in a first year-on-year contraction in sales since the company went public in 2019 Revenue in Q3 – covering the three months to the end of March – fell to $964.3m, down from $1.26bn a year earlier.
Net losses ballooned from $8.6m ($0.03 per share) a year ago to $757.1m ($2.27 per share). But Peloton did end the quarter with $879m in unrestricted cash, and the company said on the earnings call that it was confident it can achieve positive free cash flow by fiscal 2023.
“Turnarounds are hard work. It’s intellectually challenging, emotionally draining, physically exhausting, and all consuming. It’s a full-contact sport,” McCarthy wrote in the company’s shareholder letter.
Q4 call to shed light on 2023 outlook
Peloton is expecting to record revenue of between $675m and $700m for the fourth quarter, well below previous estimates of $821m. The consensus among 26 analysts polled by Yahoo Finance is for revenue to reach $722.18m, representing a decline of 22.9% year-on-year. The company expects losses to be between $115m and $120m. These figures are revised down from previously issued guidance.
While long-term investors dialling in to the Q4 earnings call will have their fingers crossed that Peloton doesn’t miss its guidance by a wide margin, they’re likely to pay particular attention to any comments regarding the company’s outlook.
McCarthy has an ambitious goal of building a community of 100 million members, up around fifteen-fold from 7 million at the end of Q3. The price of its bikes was slashed earlier this year, but McCarthy believes raising prices again is necessary to improve brand positioning.
Mixed views on cost-cutting
CMC Markets’ chief market analyst Michael Hewson isn’t convinced that the reversal is a good move, especially at a time when incomes are shrinking in real terms. “Peloton’s biggest problem was its inventory. It simply had too many products it couldn’t shift, with little sign of demand picking up. To address this, the company cut its prices and agreed a $750m long-term funding deal with its bankers,” he explained. “But earlier this month Peloton reversed these price cuts, raising its prices by 25% to 30%. This seems a strange decision given that its bikes and treadmills were already extremely expensive and, with inflation still rising, consumers are going to become even more price-sensitive.”
However, Piper Sandler analysts believe the restructuring is making Peloton stock’s prospects more attractive, according to a client note seen by Investing.com. They say user engagement will remain strong, but due to uncertainty around Peloton’s long-term total addressable market, they have reiterated a ‘neutral’ rating.
Meanwhile, JPMorgan analysts are confident that Peloton can achieve positive free cash flow towards the end of fiscal 2023, and they welcome the company’s restructuring plans. “All of these strategic changes effectively dismantle [Peloton’s] vertical integration – a key part of the bull thesis a few years ago – but they are necessary given recent growth rates, still-challenged cash flow, seasonality in the business, and macro uncertainty.”

Which tie-dye Crocs are best?
Ever since their debut, Crocs have been among the most eye-catching shoes. If you want to attract even more gazes, then you need to go with tie-dye Crocs. There are plenty of tie-dye designs available, from brightly colored jewel tones to more subdued pastels.
The best tie-dye Crocs are the Crocs Tie-Dye Classic Clog. The original clogs design remains the most popular, and there are four tie-dye designs to choose from.
What to know before you buy tie-dye Crocs
Tie-dye Crocs types
Crocs come in many forms and almost all of them offer at least one tie-dye design. Some of the most popular include:
- Clogs are the design that started it all. They have several ventilation holes above and along the front of the toe box and an ankle strap to keep it secured. There are multiple subtypes of clogs as well, including ones with different layouts of ventilation holes or ones with no holes at all.
- Slides, sandals and flip-flops are all different styles going for the same design: being as easy as possible to slip on and off. Many tie-dye versions of these styles only color the straps, leaving a solid color as the base to help the tie-dye look pop out more.
- Sneakers are a more recent type of Crocs. They keep many of Crocs’ design ideologies intact, such as having multiple ventilation holes and being made of the same materials, but they’re almost unrecognizable as Crocs.
Size
Crocs typically come in child or unisex sizes, though a handful of designs are listed as being men’s or women’s. There are also no half sizes; you need to order a size down or up depending on how tight or loose you like your shoes to feel.
What to look for in quality tie-dye Crocs
Fit
Crocs come in one of three fits.
- Standard fits conform tightly to the foot and don’t leave much space anywhere. Choose this if you want to eliminate as much shifting around the foot as possible and especially if you plan on wearing Crocs on unsteady ground.
- Relaxed fits open up the toe box and add a little space around the foot but not enough to let them slide around freely. This helps with breathability without sacrificing much control.
- Roomy fits have space all around. These can slide easily, so don’t choose this fit for unsteady environments. Positively, these are the most breathable and leave plenty of space for those who like to wear socks with their Crocs.
Jibbitz
Jibbitz are special charms that fit in the small ventilation holes synonymous with the Crocs brand. Official Jibbitz come in almost any design you can think of, and if you can’t find an official one, there are endless options on sites such as Etsy. Many pairs of Crocs even include a few Jibbitz to get your collection started.
How much you can expect to spend on tie-dye Crocs
Most tie-dye Crocs cost $30-$50. Child-sized Crocs or Crocs with little material can cost as low as $20. More advanced Crocs, such as sneakers, can cost $80 or more.
Tie-dye Crocs FAQ
Can I make my own tie-dye Crocs?
A. Yes. In fact, it’s a common practice to take plain white Crocs and personalize them, including with tie-dye. That said, the synthetic material used to make Crocs renders the usual dyeing method for tie dye ineffective; it will just wash off immediately. As such, you need to use special dyes meant for use on synthetic materials. These dyes are easily found on Amazon or in most hobby stores, and they don’t cost more than any other dye.
You can also use the hydro dipping method to tie dye them, though again this takes special materials and is a little harder to pull off by those not used to the method.
How durable are Crocs?
A. Crocs are among the most durable shoes you can find. Even when poorly taken care of, they can last for several years. All you need to do is not leave them out in the sun or they can shrink and have their tie-dye bleached out.
You know it’s time to replace them if the outsole gets worn off or if it rips or tears. If it has an ankle strap and it breaks, that’s also a sign to replace them.
What are the best tie-dye Crocs to buy?
Top tie-dye Crocs
What you need to know: The best overall Crocs are always the original clogs.
What you’ll love: These come in four designs using a mix of bright or muted colors with a black or white base. All the ventilation holes make these perfect for hot summer days and wearing around water, plus the holes leave room for 13 Jibbitz on each shoe.

Where to buy: Sold by Amazon
Top tie-dye Crocs for the money
What you need to know: These are the best canvases for those wanting to do their own tie-dye.
What you’ll love: The lack of the usual vent holes in this special clog subtype makes any custom tie-dye method easier to apply. They have special extra-grip soles for walking on slippery floors. There are also three tie-dye options for those not wanting to make their own.
What you should consider: With the lack of ventilation holes comes decreased breathability and the inability to attach Jibbitz. A few customers suggested ordering a size up.

Besides the shared nomenclature, Beyond Meat, Inc. (NASDAQ: BYND) may have more in common with Bed Bath & Beyond than “meats” the eye.
Last week shares of the specialty retailer soared as high as $30 despite an absence of news. Traders bought more than $130 million worth of the popular meme stock which, on top of heavy options buying, forced short sellers’ hands in a big way.
It wasn’t the first time Bed Bath & Beyond went vertical for no reason, nor will it likely be the last. There were, however, two things that made this short squeeze quite different.
First, the volume was enormous. The 393 million shares that exchanged hands on August 16th was by far the highest daily trading activity yet—and was preceded and followed by several high volume days.
Second, the trip on the way down was especially rough. Word that activist investor Ryan Cohen dumped his entire Bed Bath & Beyond stake accelerated a sharp downturn. By Friday (8/19), the stock was back around $11.
Back to Beyond Meat, the plant-based meat alternative producer has a few similarities to Bed Bath & Beyond that give it serious squeeze potential. As we’ve been reminded in recent weeks, it doesn’t take much for social media platforms to get behind an underdog.
#1 - Float Matters
A stock’s float refers to the number of shares that are available for public trading. It excludes shares held by corporate insiders like executives, board members, and institutional investors.
In some cases, a company’s float is quite different from its number of shares outstanding. Low float stocks can become targets of retail traders because they are more susceptible to manipulation.
At 70.1 million shares, Bed Bath & Beyond doesn’t have a particularly low float, but it does have significant insider ownership. Approximately 12% of shares outstanding are excluded from the float, which makes things a tad easier for squeeze-minded traders.
Beyond Meat’s float is 58.1 million shares. This represents 91% of shares outstanding, a similar proportion to that of Bed Bath & Beyond. Not a huge disparity, but it helps set the stage.
#2 - Heavy Short Interest
More importantly, a huge percentage of Beyond Meat’s float is in the hands of short sellers. The stock’s 34% short float makes it one of the top five most shorted U.S. mid cap stocks.
How does this compare to Bed Bath & Beyond? About 41% of its float is held short, a figure that was much higher during the height of the recent short squeeze.
So if Beyond Meat amasses enough attention on Reddit’s Wall Street Bets and other investor platforms, a buying spree could force a lot of short hands.
The struggling company has had some short squeeze flare ups of its own, but they’ve been relatively modest and underachievers. Earlier this month, Beyond Meat shot up above $40 following a disappointing second quarter report that included worker layoffs and lowered guidance. True to short squeeze form, the stock has since returned to where the social media fueled rally began.
Another important metric to watch here is Beyond Meat’s 6.4 short interest ratio. This is the estimated number of days it would take short sellers to cover their positions by repurchasing borrowed shares. The calculation factors in the typical trading volume the stock sees, often an average of the last 30 or 90 days. If a short attack can sustain momentum for a couple days, Beyond Meat could experience an epic weeklong squeeze.
#3 - Bearish Analysts
Pessimism amongst Wall Street research firms has been another key component of some of the biggest recent short squeezes. This matters because retail traders tend to rally behind a company that it knows the big professionals don’t like. Often this is the reason why the stock is so heavily shorted in the first place. An opportunity for anti-establishment spite tends to attract more people to the party and accelerate a squeeze.
Bed Bath & Beyond has long been despised by the Street even before it was ordained a meme play. Lately, plunging sales and a CEO departure have been more reason for analysts’ bearish sentiment. Last week, three firms downgraded the stock to sell with price targets in the $5 to $7.50 range. Over the last two months, the retailer has received a dozen sell ratings, a lone hold rating, and no buys.
The Street’s opinion on Beyond Meat isn’t quite as negative but it's certainly not bullish either. Of the nine analysts that have offered updates on the stock this month, three have called it a sell and six a hold.
Hard to blame them really. Fleeting consumer demand and widening net losses highlight what is an ugly fundamental backdrop right now. Then again, when it comes to retailers’ short squeeze candidates, weak fundamentals matter little—and can actually be perceived as a positive.
Heavily shorted and heavily disliked on the Street, Beyond Meat has the (grill) markings of a formidable short squeeze recipe. The ingredients are there, but will enough traders show up to the feast?

Kavango Resources PLC said Tuesday that it has appointed Tamesis Partners LLP to lead efforts in seeking a partner to help develop the Kalahari Suture Zone project in Botswana.
The mining company said Tamesis will work with the company to assist in identifying potential partners and provide advice on potential corporate transaction structures to maximize shareholder value.
The transaction for the project could involve a joint venture, an earn-in, direct investment or other similar mechanism, the company said.
Tamesis will be paid a modest--though undisclosed--monthly retainer fee for the term of the agreement, and an advisory success fee upon entering a transaction. It will also be awarded 8.3 million warrants, exerciseable within two years at a price of 3 pence a share.
Kavango said exploration on the site will continue, with its main focus in the coming months being to act on the recommendations made in its technical review.

The Google Doodle commemorates the 104th birth anniversary of Anna Mani, one of the first female scientists in India. She is known as the "Weather Woman of India." The scientist Anna Mani laid the foundation for harnessing renewable energy in the country and conducted several studies that have contributed to the development of current weather forecasting agencies in the nation.
Facts About Anna Mani
Anna Modayil Mani was born in Peermade, Kerala, in 1918.
Since Gandhi's nationalist movement inspired her during the Vaikom Satyagraha at a young age, she began wearing only khadi garments.
By the age of eight, she had read most of the Malayalam public library's books, and by the age of twelve, all of the English library's books.
Despite her family's custom of providing diamond earrings for her eighth birthday, she requested a set of Encyclopaedia Britannica instead.
After winning a scholarship for research at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, she went to Imperial College, London, to pursue graduate studies in physics, but ultimately specialising in meteorological instruments.
Upon graduating from Pachai College, Mani worked under Prof. C V Raman, researching the optical properties of diamonds and rubies.
Mani wished to make India independent in the field of weather instruments. So she standardised the drawings of close to one hundred weather instruments. She was a consultant for the World Meteorological Organization in Egypt in 1975. In 1976, she retired from the Indian Meteorological Department as deputy director general. Mani suffered from a stroke in 1994. Sadly, she passed away on 16 August 2001, a week before her 83rd birthday, in Thiruvananthapuram. In honour of her 100th birthday, the World Meteorological Organization published a biography and interview with her. Mani also held important positions within the World Meteorological Organization of the United Nations. In 1987, she was awarded the INSA K R Ramanathan Medal for her outstanding scientific contributions.

Surging rents squeezing middle-class Americans the hardest, study shows
Rent costs in the US are growing at the fastest pace in decades
Rent prices in the U.S. are rising at the fastest pace in decades, slamming U.S. households across the country, according to data from the Bank of America Institute.
Median rent payments for Bank of America customers surged 7.4% in July from the previous year, up from 7.2% in June, according to a new report from the Charlotte-based bank. Although skyrocketing rents are squeezing Americans across the income spectrum, middle-income and younger workers are feeling the biggest pinch.
"A significant increase in rent prices can have meaningful impact on household financial situations, particularly for middle and lower income households," the report said.
Rising rents are a concerning development because higher housing costs most directly and acutely affect household budgets. Roughly 34% of households are renters, according to Census Bureau data, but that figure is even larger for lower- and middle-income families. More than half — roughly 52.6% — of households with family income that is below the national median of $31,133 are renters.
HOW HOUSING IS FUELING RED-HOT INFLATION
Even more worrisome is there are no signs that rent inflation is poised to slow down in the coming months.
New forecasts from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas show that rent inflation will likely climb higher before eventually peaking in mid-2023. The latest Dallas Fed projections show that rent could hit the apex at 8.3% next May before starting to cool off. Rent is expected to remain elevated well above pre-pandemic levels for the entirety of 2023.
"This suggests the squeeze from higher rent will likely persist for the foreseeable future," Bank of America said in its report. "Despite elevated bank balances and strong wages at the moment, rent inflation could eventually bite into consumers’ purchasing power elsewhere in a more meaningful way."
HOMEBUILDERS SEE 'HOUSING RECESSION' AS SENTIMENT PLUNGES TO FRESH 2-YEAR LOW
Households, in general, spend about 7% of their annual expenditures on rent, while households without college degrees spent nearly 10% of their total expenditure on rent in 2020.
While the rapid pace of price increases eased slightly in July with the monthly increase flat at 0%, the consumer price index still climbed 8.5% from the previous year — hovering near a painful four-decade high, the Labor Department reported last week.
And despite the decrease in headline inflation — which was largely attributed to a decline in gasoline prices — the cost of essentials such as rent and food continued to soar higher in July. Rent jumped 0.7% over the month and 6.3% on an annual basis, according to the data.
For consumers with an annual household income between $51,000 and $100,000, median rent payment jumped even more, soaring 8.3% from the previous year in July. The lowest income group that earns $50,000 or less, meanwhile, saw a 7.4% increase. Households making more than $251,000 saw the smallest annual increase at 5.9%.
There are several reasons for runaway rent costs, including high demand as steep prices and rising interest rates push prospective homebuyers out of the housing market. Low inventory and high demand also explain the increases.
"From our perspective, the costs inside the housing complex have not yet finished increasing, and it will likely be some months before an apex is reached," said RSM chief economist Joe Brusuelas. He suggested that inflation broadening out into the shelter sector could force the Federal Reserve to approve a third consecutive 75-basis-point interest rate hike when it meets in September as policymakers try to cool the red-hot housing market.

"In our estimation, it will be two to three years before inflation is anywhere near the Fed’s 2% inflation target," he said. | https://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/surging-rents-hitting-middle-class-americans-the-hardest | 2022-08-23T07:19:26Z | https://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/surging-rents-hitting-middle-class-americans-the-hardest | false | 1 |
Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah refrained on Monday from saying anything new regarding the dispute with the Israeli enemy over offshore gas, saying Hezbollah was holding back and watching them babbling.
“I will not speak of anything new. We have said everything that we should say. Now we are all waiting. And whoever waited for more than 10 years can wait for a few more days. No problem. Threats are worthless, and our decision and approach are clear,” Sayyed Nasrallah said in a televised address as part of a festival, a holographic panorama, dubbed “The Alphabet of Victory”.
“Let’s wait and stay calm. We’re always hearing threats and the last of which was from (Israeli Defense Minister Benny) Gantz,” he added.
To us, Sayyed Nasrallah denoted, all of these threats are of no value. “Our decision, rhetoric and orientation are clear and we are awaiting the coming days to act accordingly,” he indicated.
Hezbollah’s leader began his speech by hailing the artistic panorama, dubbed “Alphabet of Victory”, that was performed prior to his speech, narrating the story of the forty years of the Islamic resistance’s ongoing journey.
“When we speak about the resistance’s 40 years, it must be made clear that we do not cut the connection with the time before 1982; there is a deep and fundamental connection to all the efforts, struggles, actions and frameworks that existed before 1982,” Sayyed Nasrallah said.
“We highly appreciate the efforts of our great scholars in our Islamic arena who spread awareness and promoted moral virtue,” he said, recounting the scholars who rallied with the resistance since its emergence, namely Sayyed Mohamad Baqer Sadr, Sayyed Moussa Sadr, Imam Khomeini, and Sayyed Ali Khameni.
“The victory in 2000 put an end to ‘Greater Israel project’ and shattered the so-called ‘invincible army’,” the Hezbollah leader pointed.
Sayyed Nasrallah stated that Hezbollah will not give in to any threats regarding the demarcation of Lebanon’s maritime borders, describing such threats as worthless. “The latest steadfastness achievement of July War is Hezbollah’s involvement in the issue of Lebanon’s restoration of its oil and gas rights,” Hezbollah’s S.G. pointed out.
“We are en route to developing the military infrastructure and capabilities to keep pace with current developments at the level of weapons and technology,” he added.
Turning to Lebanese issues, Sayyed Nasrallah said the Army-People-Resistance formula is firm whether it was included in the ministerial statement or not. He pointed that liberating the remaining occupied Lebanese territories was a national responsibility.
“Part of our responsibility in the coming stage is to establish deterrence equations to protect Lebanon’s land, people and wealth,” he indicated. “Any effort to liberate Lebanon’s occupied lands is a national responsibility. Therefore, Israel’s threats about demarcation of Lebanon’s maritime borders are worthless.”
Sayyed Nasrallah lauded the relations with Amal, saying: Since its establishment, Hezbollah’s resistance operations against the Israeli invasion were in cooperation with Amal movement. “One of the achievements is the turnover of our relation with Amal movement from a negative to a positive, integral one,” he said.
Regarding the Palestinian cause, Sayyed Nasrallah said it is part of our nation’s religion, culture, honor and dignity, warning that there is no place for abandonment or retreat whatsoever. He also specified that Hezbollah has been maintaining close ties with all resistance groups in Palestine and will continue to do so. “We have also supported the Palestinian refugees and emphasized their right to dignified return to Palestine,” he also said.
Sayyed Nasrallah mentioned in his speech the Lebanese chess champion, Nadia Fawaz, who withdrew from the 4th round of the 28th Abu Dhabi International Chess Festival to avoid competing with an Israeli contender, following the steps of Charbel Abou Daher who also withdrew from the 2022 Youth MMA World Championships to avoid playing against an Israeli opponent for the same reason.
“Our bets are placed on youths like Charbel Abou Daher and Nadia Fawaz who refused to face Israeli contenders,” Sayyed Nasrallah said, hailing their courage amid some Arab’s bowing to ‘Israel’. “We had no problem in developing Lebanon’s relations, especially with Arab states, but some sides want to turn Lebanon into an inferior, we reject this,” he implied.
Elsewhere in his remarks, Sayyed Nasrallah accused the United States of trying to fan the flames of civil war in Lebanon by pitting the resistance movement against the Lebanese army. “There are sides who strive to push the resistance into a clash with the Lebanese army and security forces, this is a permanent and publicized American scheme.” However, he made it clear that Hezbollah won’t be dragged into civil war or sectarian strife.
“Some issues need to be addressed, like the Tayyouneh case due to its deep connection to civil peace,” he said referring to Tayyouneh clashes last October where protesters were attacked by Lebanese Forces gunmen.
Sayyed Nasrallah promised that in the coming stage Hezbollah will be keen on developing and consolidating the understanding with the Free Patriotic Movement.
“Our prime issue during the next stage is cooperating with various political powers in order to build a just and capable state,” he also said. “We look forward towards a state that does not yield to the American embassy’s pressure and to any other embassy or foreign dominance.”
Syria took good part in His eminence’s speech. He praised it as the basis for the Resistance Axis and the steadfastness front, and a partner in the refusal to surrender to Israeli conditions. He further said that the support for Syria is permanent and will never waiver. “Syria is the cornerstone of the resistance front and our partner in refusing to surrender to Israeli conditions,” he said.
Day after day we grow more convinced in our choice and decision to get involved in Syria’s War, he said, warning that “If Syria is exposed to any similar attack, we will not hesitate in getting involved in that confrontation.”
Sayyed Nasrallah voiced optimism in the resistance capabilities, saying: We are optimistic in regards to the balances of strengths and weaknesses which are in favor of the resistance axis. “We will remain part of the resistance axis, we bet on it as an ultimate power capable of facing hegemony schemes and securing sanctities. We have always stood by the oppressed people of the region, including in Yemen, Iraq and Afghanistan and will also do this in the future,” he ended up saying.

Hucknall toy swap event organisers 'overwhelmed' by community support
The organisers of a Hucknall toy swap event say they have been left ‘overwhelmed’ by the level of support they have had had from the community.
The event, at George Street WMC in the town, was organised by the Pay It Forward – Hucknall and Surrounding Areas group.
The group, which has more than 5,000 members, is for people to pass on anything they don’t need any more to a person or family that does, all for free, to help people to save on the costs of buying things like new toys, household items, equipment, clothing, food or any item they might need.
And with it being the school holidays and the cost of living crisis starting to bite hard for many people, a chance for parents to get some new toys for their children – and hand some of their old, no-longer-used toys to other parents – was the ideal next venture.

And the community responded in fine style.
Gemma Webb, one of the main organisers, said: “It was brilliant, it was an overwhelming turnout, we wanted a big number and we got it.
"So many people donated and then we had the good turnout to support it which was just what we wanted.
"It was just brilliant and I’m really happy.
"Some stuff has gone back and there was the suggestion we might do another event in the autumn half-term holiday, but we’ll see about that."
The spirit of the event was summed up by one boy who had nothing to swap, save for the pencil he turned up with – he left with a cricket set.
Gemma continued: “People said it was a brilliant idea and they looked forward to the next one but we’ll be pending on that for now."
As well as toys being swapped, the event featured face painting, a raffle and refreshments and everyone did it for free which just goes to show you can pull off an event for free if everyone has the right idea and supports it and the community did, they were brilliant.”
Gemma also said people had put forward suggestions for other swap events that could be done in the future.
She continued: “I think school uniform would be brilliant for next year or clothes – it would be like a giant jumble sale wouldn’t it?
"But if people are suggesting it, then there is clearly a desire for it and people would clearly come and support it.
"People are really feeling the pinch and they needed something like this to show that there is a community out there to support them.”
Gemma expressed huge thanks to groups, people and businesses who had made the event possible, particularly OT Fundraisers, Wrights Bargain Buys, who provided all the transport, The Hideout, Bees Knees, George Street Club and Ideal Cars.
She added: “Thank you to the Pay It Forward group as well, we filled George Street and a bit more.
"Me, Cara and Natalie (fellow group leaders Natalie Randall and Cara Orton) are absolutely overwhelmed.” | https://www.hucknalldispatch.co.uk/news/people/hucknall-toy-swap-event-organisers-overwhelmed-by-community-support-3815477 | 2022-08-23T07:28:15Z | https://www.hucknalldispatch.co.uk/news/people/hucknall-toy-swap-event-organisers-overwhelmed-by-community-support-3815477 | true | 1 |

Kaizer Chiefs head coach Arthur Zwane is wary of Cape Town City’s desire for a first win this season as Amakhosi clash with the Citizens on Wednesday night.
Eric Tinkler’s troops have lost three and drawn two of their five DStv Premiership matches to date while Amakhosi have played four games, with a ‘won two and lost two’ record.

Zwane is aware that City will be out to play for maximum points, but the Glamour Boys are also looking to maintain their winning run after they triumphed against Richards Bay over the past weekend.
“It’s not an easy game because City have done well and want that first win, and for any team, there’s no bigger occasion than to get it against Chiefs,” Zwane told Kaizer Chiefs website.
“We are aware of this and will do our best to make sure we put a smile on our supporters’ faces.”

In other news, Zwane has insisted that his side wasn’t desperate for an out-and-out striker despite signing one in Bonfils-Caleb Bimenyimana.
Amakhosi have been hunting a striker since the pre-season began following the exits of Leonardo Castro and Samir Nurkovic in June.
Amakhosi unveiled the Burundian forward on Thursday after he impressed during his three-week trial at Naturena.
Zwane says they delayed signing him because they were still considering other options.

“We spent three weeks with Caleb [Bimenyimana] and we were impressed but we didn’t want to rush into things because we were still looking,” Zwane told journalists at the Moses Mabhida Stadium.
“We are avoiding a situation of this quick-fix thing that you maybe bring in a player because of maybe desperation, we’re not desperate.
“You could even see today, yes even if we didn’t have number 9 but we look we can come up with something and our players as well they must know that we gonna have to improvise because there will be games where you have number 9, he gets the red card and what do you do.
“Gone are those days of number 9s, once you have a front three, any of the front three can play as a number 9 or one of them can play as a false 9 because that’s where the game is going when you look at all the top teams.
“And yah, we believe that Caleb [Bimenyimana] is gonna help us because he is the type of the striker, when you want him on top he does that, when you want him as maybe number 10, he has the quality to help us.
“That’s why we had to wait for the right moment and be sure as to whether he’s the right player for us.”

Foothill Farms-North Highlands Little League equipment stolen
NORTH HIGHLANDS — The equipment for a Little League baseball team was stolen by thieves that broke into their storage at Robert Frost Park.
According to league representatives, they noticed the equipment was missing at roughly 7:30 a.m. from their storage, where it appears that someone cut the lock.
The thieves stole a $1,500 sound system that the 250 kid league purchased with money generated from fundraising.
"We're trying to give the kids something nice here and to finally get something we're proud of, and to have it taken away, that's difficult. These kids worked hard for it," said Foothill Farms-North Highlands Little League Vice President Brad Washburn.
The league is now looking into other security options to keep their equipment safe.

Since then, memes started taking over social media with people sharing their reactions. Mumbai Police too joined in with a hilarious but important message. “When we see people using their partner’s name as their password: #NotAMatch, #CyberSafety,” they wrote.
Take a look at the post by Mumbai Police:

A discussion was held at the National Human Rights Commission here on Monday and the release of the 11 convicts in the 2002 Bilkis Bano case figured in it, sources said.
NHRC chairperson Justice (retd.) Arun Kumar Mishra headed the discussion, they said.However, there was no official version from the NHRC on the discussion.
The 11 convicts walked out of the Godhra sub-jail on August 15 after the Gujarat government allowed their release under its remission policy. They had completed more than 15 years in jail.
A special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court in Mumbai on January 21, 2008, sentenced the 11 to life imprisonment on charges of gangrape and murder of seven members of Bilkis Bano's family. Their conviction was later upheld by the Bombay High Court.
Bilkis Bano was 21 years old and five months pregnant when she was gang-raped while fleeing the violence that broke out after the Godhra train burning. Among those killed was her three-year-old daughter.

Quadintel published a new report on theAsia-Pacific Wound Care Product Market. The research report consists of thorough information about demand, growth, opportunities, challenges, and restraints. In addition, it delivers an in-depth analysis of the structure and possibility of global and regional industries.
With an increase in the number of surgeries in hospitals, wound care products are becoming increasingly popular due to the surveillance of infections in wounds post-surgery.
The Asia Pacific wound care product market is anticipated to expand at an overall compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.2 % and will be worth of USD 3.44 Bn by 2023.
Increasing geriatric populations across different parts of the Asia Pacific region is one of the predominant factors that is anticipated to drive the demand for the wound care product market.
Request To Download Sample of This Strategic Report: –https://www.quadintel.com/request-sample/asia-pacific-wound-care-product-market/QI042
Education and awareness about the benefits of new wound care technologies have risen. This is driven by the need for reduction in healthcare costs by minimizing hospital stays and risk of infections.
Based on countries, the Asia Pacific wound care product market is divided into China, Japan, India and the rest of APAC. China is one of the largest markets in the Asia Pacific region. This is because the government’s policy to support the growth of local advanced wound care product manufacturers would challenge the domination of MNCs in this segment. On the other hand India is growing in terms of both the population and living standards, thereby creating high demand for quality wound care.
By product classification, the surgical wound care product market is the largest segment followed by the advanced wound care product market. The growth potential of advanced wound care products is expected to be the highest during the forecast period because of an increase in disposable income of this region along with rising population, especially the geriatric type.
Key growth factors
o Increasing aging population in APAC countries is driving the requirement for home healthcare facilities, as hospital beds are not available in adequate numbers.
o It is reported that more than 84% of the population in this region will be above 80 years in the coming years.
o Threats and key players
o Price sensitivity is a major challenge in the Asian markets. It hampers the progress of the wound care market as a whole.
o The key players operating in this market are Smith & Nephew, Coloplast Corporation, Medtronic Public Limited Company, and Johnson & Johnson Pvt. Ltd.

Indian Startup's creates 1st Electric Super Car: Mean Metal Cars
Indian Start-up company Mean Metal Motors (MMM) has created a new supercar, in order to put our nation's name right up there with the likes of Britain, Germany, Italy and few more.India in recent years, has been pitching for Make in India, hence many startups have begun and they are also successful and reaping profits with providing exceptional customer service and experience to their customers.
India in recent years, has been pitching for Make in India, hence many startups have begun and they are also successful and reaping profits with providing exceptional customer service and experience to their customers.
Indian Start-up company Mean Metal Motors (MMM) has created a new supercar, in order to put our nation's name right up there with the likes of Britain, Germany, Italy and few more.
With the dawn of electric supercars, traditional supercars, manufactured by automotive giants have somewhat faded in the background when it comes to the "numbers game"
Mirroring this trend, the Indian automotive start-up company, mean Metal Motors has build a 1000bhp all-electric supercar, which can run up to 700kms on a single charge. The 1000bhp Indian Supercar is named Azani and it is one of the most ambitious automotive projects of our nation. Azani is also our nation's first ever electric supercar.
When viewed head-on, the MMM Azani looks as if the Lyken Hypersports has been reimagined by Tesla. It looks sharp at the same time, looks clean having minimal lines and vents. Moving onto the sides, the MMM Azani looks very Italian having sleek lines that gently channel the air to the right places for varied purposes. While the rear end reminds me of the Lotus Evija and the Lotus having its rather large air exits.
This start-up company has made claims that all-electric supercar would do 0 to 100kmph in less than 2 seconds, while the top speed would over 350kmph. According to the start-up, their ever prototype would be built in the second half of the year, 2022 and the completed version would be priced somewhere around Rs. 89 lakhs.
Considering the price, the upcoming MMM Azani would be complete bargain and the price to horsepower ratio also tend to seem better when compared to budget hot-hatches like the Volkswagen Polo GTI. In order to achieve this remarkable feat, the EV start-up company plans to manufacture the Azani in micro-facilities that would only cost one-fifth of a traditional manufacturing facility, this method would also help the company to produce cars faster.
The CEO of Mean Metal Motors, Sarthak Paul, stated " The present backdrop of switching over the electric vehicles in the nation seems far away given the lack of infrastructure, though from a company perspective, we tend to feel that full electrification is just a couple of years away. Our sole purpose is just not develop an electric supercar, but to create an eco-system, which helps increase electrification at a faster rate. India is way far behind with regards to production methods when compared to the west and we are here to change this scenario.
Why this car is truly Indian in every right?
Even though the Indian automotive manufacturing giant, Mahindra can be credited as the company behind the 1900bhp pininfarina Batiista, it the MMM Azani, which is truly Indian in every right. | https://www.thehansindia.com/auto/auto-news/indian-startups-creates-1st-electric-super-car-mean-metal-cars-758913 | 2022-08-23T07:53:01Z | https://www.thehansindia.com/auto/auto-news/indian-startups-creates-1st-electric-super-car-mean-metal-cars-758913 | false | 1 |
In early August, a Nebraska prosecutor charged a mother and daughter with violating the state’s ban on abortion after 20 weeks. That ban was passed in 2010, but didn’t go into effect until the Supreme Court’s ruling earlier this year overturning Roe V. Wade.
Part of the state’s evidence consists of Facebook messages between the two, indicating that the mother obtained “abortion pills” for her pregnant daughter.
Police obtained those messages in the usual way: They presented a search warrant to Facebook and the company turned over the data.
If the two women had used Facebook’s optional “end-to-end encryption,” the police would still have been able to get that data — but they wouldn’t have been able to read it.
Facebook has since announced its intention to make end-to-end encryption the default, rather than an option, in its Messenger service.
That’s a good thing.
Whatever your opinion of abortion in general, or of Nebraska’s laws and the women’s alleged actions in particular, the case illustrates how easy it’s become for government to eavesdrop on our communications in real time, or seize and read our private files after the fact.
Between constantly advancing technical means, the tendency of judges to defer to law enforcement, and government’s willingness to just plain break the law when the law doesn’t suit their purposes (see Edward Snowden’s disclosure of the NSA’s illegal spying programs for examples), it’s become far TOO easy.
Some politicians on both sides of the major party aisle disagree. They don’t think it’s easy enough. They’re constantly working on laws they hope will make strong encryption less available (or, with “back door” schemes, just less strong).
This is the kind of battle that’s easier to fight now than later.
Strong encryption has been widely available for more than 30 years now.
But in order for the government to lose its war on our privacy, we need to see far more widespread adoption at both the individual and corporate levels … and we need that adoption to outpace unscrupulous politicians’ ability to keep up with it.
In a mostly unencrypted world, encrypted communications (of most kinds — there are exceptions) tend to stand out. In such an environment, it’s not unlikely that at some point, encryption will itself be deemed “suspicious” and its use treated as grounds for investigations and searches.
But if we’re all using encryption, all (or even most) of the time, prosecutors will need other pretexts, maybe even real evidence, to get permission to pry into our private affairs.
Which is exactly as it should be.
By using encryption on principle at least some of the time, and by asking your messaging providers to enable it by default, you’ll be protecting your privacy. And everyone else’s.

Grand jury weighs possible charges against North Carolina AG
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — A local North Carolina grand jury on Monday advanced its consideration of possible criminal charges against state Attorney General Josh Stein and two aides over an investigation into a political ad targeting Stein’s 2020 election opponent.
After hearing from a State Bureau of Investigation agent, the Wake County grand jury asked in writing that the Wake district attorney’s office submit an indictment for consideration “against any and each” of three people, including Stein himself.
The Democratic attorney general, his 2020 campaign manager Eric Stern and current state Justice Department chief of staff Seth Dearmin — a former Stein campaign manager — were identified in Monday’s “presentment” document signed by the jury foreperson. They have not been charged with any crime.
Stein, a potential 2024 candidate for governor, lashed out in a statement at what he called a “nonsense investigation.”
The investigation stems from a State Board of Elections complaint filed in fall 2020 by Stein’s Republican opponent, Forsyth County District Attorney Jim O’Neill. He accused Stein’s campaign of circulating a political ad that violated a 91-year-old libel law.
The O’Neill campaign said Stein’s commercial, which accused the Republican of letting more than a thousand rape kits go untested, was “false and derogatory” because police rather than prosecutors are responsible for testing rape kits. Wake County District Attorney Lorrin Freeman’s office began investigating in 2021.
Freeman, also a Democrat, said Monday that her office could present the grand jury with a possible indictment as soon as next month. But a ruling as early as this week from the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals could derail the district attorney’s push for prosecution.
Stein’s campaign committee has said the ad was truthful.
Freeman “continues to pursue her nonsense investigation over a campaign ad that is true from an election that is long since passed, using a 91-year-old statute that has never been used against any other candidate,” the Stein campaign wrote in a statement Monday. “While the attorney general is disappointed by this ongoing distraction, he continues to focus on his work to test sexual assault kits and get justice for survivors of sexual assault.”
Freeman has recused herself from the case — citing her working relationship with O’Neill and Stein — and gave it to a senior assistant in her office.
Stein’s campaign committee asked the appeals court last week to issue a preliminary injunction blocking enforcement of the state law while the committee and other plaintiffs seek to strike it down as unconstitutional. U.S. District Judge Catherine Eagles refused last week to grant the injunction.
Dating to at least 1931, the law makes it illegal to deliberately disseminate a false “derogatory report” that could harm a candidate’s chance of election.
The misdemeanor for violating the law carries a penalty of up to 60 days in jail with up to $1,000 in fines, but someone with an otherwise clean criminal record would avoid serving time if convicted. Any criminal charge against Stein or his aides could harm the Democrat’s electoral prospects. | https://www.wwaytv3.com/grand-jury-weighs-possible-charges-against-north-carolina-ag/ | 2022-08-23T07:58:37Z | https://www.wwaytv3.com/grand-jury-weighs-possible-charges-against-north-carolina-ag/ | true | 35 |

SEC has come down heavy on American Banking giants Photograph:( WION Web Team )
In most cases, it is the natural gag reflex of employees to use personal channels to communicate. However, some use the back channels as it allows them to not archive top-secret, market-moving information.
The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has come down heavy on the banking giants of the country. Reportedly, the regulatory body has imposed a collective fine of over $1 billion on JP Morgan Chase & Co and Bank of America.
The fines were imposed after SEC began probing the bank's record-keeping practices and found that the employees were using unauthorised messaging tools such as WhatsApp and email to exchange vital information.
According to SEC officials, it was the failure of the two banking behemoths to preserve the conversations on the unapproved messaging apps that prompted the fine as it violated federal securities law.
However, this is not the first time that American banks have been given a rap on the knuckle by the financial regulators over the use of personal devices.

According to a Reuters report, a subsidiary of JP Morgan Chase & Co was caught in a similar manner last year and forced to cough out $200 million in fines. Apart from SEC, it was Commodity Futures Trading Commission that levied the fine on the bank.
Meanwhile, Bank of America, in its second quarter earning report, has already set aside a sum of $200 million to deal with the previous offences. However, the bank might have to increase the amount in light of the new fine.
Similarly, British bank Barclays in July stated that it had reached an agreement with the regulators to settle the case by paying $200 million in fines.
Deutsche Bank, Gldman Sachs, Credit Suisse Group and Citi are the other affenders that have had to pay fines to the regulators.
Why American banks keep flouting the rule?
Despite the federal laws explicitly banning the use of personal devices to communicate with clients, American Banks are routinely found flouting the rules.

In the aftermath of the pandemic, the problem has only exacerbated as most bank employees have become privy to the use of communication tools such as Zoom, and Skype, amongst myriad other tools.
In most cases, it is the natural gag reflex of employees to use personal channels to communicate. However, some use the back channels as it allows them to circumvent archiving top-secret, market-moving information.

The cosmetic surgery industry needs shock therapy and must be shut down
Allan Fels
Former chairman Australian Competition and Consumer CommissionThe “cosmetic surgery” industry needs shock therapy. The only way to get the large and urgent change needed to protect the public from serious injuries is for health ministers and the national regulator (AHPRA) to close down the entire industry for a period of three to six months. This would achieve real change quickly and help overcome the lethargy shown by all involved – practitioners, regulators, politicians – in dealing with the continuing dangers to consumers arising from current widespread dangerous malpractices.
Australians have been appalled at the dramatic footage and heartbreaking stories resulting from shocking, reckless and seemingly totally unregulated practices in the industry (yes, industry). What started as a small flow of complaints, mostly very serious, to the regulators was met with virtually no response other than a very small number of actions, some tokenistic, to deal with some of the extreme cases.
That small flow reflected a failure by the regulator to make its existence known and a lack of confidence of consumers in its effectiveness. Worse, practitioners have intimidated complainants. In fact, they are in the habit of trying to intimidate public commentators on the industry, including at times when they might appear before public inquiries. I myself received strong legal threats of defamation action seeking damages for a single article in this newspaper a few months ago, from the Australasian College of Cosmetic Surgery and Medicine.
It is not clear that the regulator recognises the seriousness of the problems. One recent indicator of that is its support for allowing cosmetic surgery personal testimonials despite strong opposition from the Australian Medical Association and many others.
Another indicator has been the absence of attempts to deal comprehensively, systematically, and forcefully with misconduct and poor practices.
The underlying system of regulation and associated legislation is weak. “Cosmetic surgery” has slipped through the regulatory net, partly because it is not a specialty at medical schools and partly because it is not a Medicare-funded item.
Its advocates trivialise the nature of the surgical work being done with language such as “tummy tucks”, “Brazilian butt-lift” and “saddlebags” procedures. Moreover, any doctor can practise cosmetic surgery with minimal special training requirements.
There is a culture of weak law enforcement by the regulator. A division of powers, especially federal and state ones, leads to unco-ordinated action, different rules and blame shifting. There is also a division of regulatory labour within each state.
Litigation by practitioners with very deep pockets (who have very high incomes to protect) is a standard response to regulatory action. At times, it is not easy to get medical experts to act as witnesses, although there are some notable exceptions.
Currently, there is a review with wide terms of reference. But the fact that there is a review – rather than urgent action when there is evidence of daily harm – is not necessarily a good sign. It seems to be an excuse for regulatory inaction. When the review is complete, much time will then be spent consulting and deciding what to do about the complex recommendations.
Even if there is a tightening up of regulation it is unlikely there will be more than a marginal change in practice. Something extra is needed.
There are precedents for closing down industries, at least temporarily, when harmful actions are occurring. The harm to consumers would be slight – most cases are not medically urgent. I would, however, leave the door open for consumers to go to qualified plastic surgeons if they need to during this period, not that I am happy to leave this field permanently in the hands of a specialisation with such restrictive entry practices.
What is needed is not just a change of regulatory practice. A temporary closure of the industry – a shock effect – that will force the practitioners themselves into action is the only way of triggering a revolutionary, speedy transformation of industry practice with the establishment of very safe practices and processes. Plus there needs to be a requirement for full disclosure of the qualifications of “surgeons”, as these are often totally inadequate.
Only when the regulator and ministers are satisfied that radical improvement is set to occur should the closure be ended. Anything less will lead to serious harm and distress to consumers.
