Bendigo cyclist Blake Agnoletto has locked in a podium finish in Belgium.
The 19-year-old InForm TMX rider was third across the line in a traditional European kermesse held throughout Belgium's Ruiselede region.

Agnoletto powered home in the two hour race and nearly captured the two breakaway riders on the finish line.
The third-place podium finish comes just days after heartbreak for Agnoletto.
On the last corner of an 85km kermesse held in Zonnebeke earlier in the week, Agnoletto was in prime position to win before striking mechanical problems.
Struck by a broken chain, he then had to settle for fifth place, but still was second overall within the U-23 division.
After a brief stint in Europe, it's expected Agnoletto will return to Australia to compete in a series of NRS Tours scheduled throughout the country.
Meanwhile, BDCC's junior road championships begin this weekend at Junortoun.

Kimora Lee Simmons knows exactly where her daughter, Aoki Lee Simmons, gets her “feisty” side -- from her! The 20-year-old Harvard student/model has made a name for herself on TikTok, unapologetically shutting down the haters who bring the negative vibes to her page.
While the proud mom knows her daughter can hold her own, she still worries about her online. “I always say, ‘Are you too feisty, Aoki? You better watch it,’” the 47-year-old tells ET. “What if someone comes with the opposing view and it's like too much heat? You know what she said to me? ‘Mom, since when have I not been feisty? I can take a little heat.‘”
The fashion mogul adds, “It makes me feel so proud. Sometimes I am a little worried. So, in my household I am always yelling like, ‘Is that OK? Is that too see through? Is that too short? Did you piss off the wrong person?’ And they're all like, 'Mom, are you going soft on us? ‘Cause this is not like the same queen of fabulosity.’ I think as a mom or as a parent, you worry, you want them to be OK. You want them to be safe, you don't want them to invite any unwanted drama.”
Although, when it comes to the drama, Aoki is ready for it. As evidenced by her TikTok videos, Simmons and ex-husband Russell Simmons’ youngest daughter is ready for anything and anyone who challenges her and the idea that she hasn’t worked hard for her education and the modeling career she has.
“It makes me so proud. And to see that she understands both sides and she understands how other people feel and she understands how she is perceived,” Simmons says. “And I think that all of these things just make for a well-rounded person. It sets the stage for her, for her future, in such an amazing way. It makes me feel really warm inside that I raised her the right way.”
Aoki, who was accepted to Harvard at the age of 15, has decided that she is going to follow in her mother’s footsteps down the runway with a career in modeling when she graduates. A career path, her mother says, that demonstrates she has brains and beauty.
“You're allowed to have aspirations,” she said of her daughter’s career path.
“You're allowed to have fun. She's two or three years ahead so she just turned 20. She's almost graduating. She was accepted at 15. One of the youngest in modern history," Simmons says. "I think that oftentimes women aren't expected to have it all. That goes especially for women of color. We weren't expected to have it all. Who said you couldn't have brains and beauty?”
Simmons doesn’t have many worries when it comes to her daughter stepping into the world of fashion. The former model says that on top of the changes that have been made in the industry, she knows how it works and could be the best guide for her daughter.
“I think as a mom, you worry. I have experienced so much since I was 12 years old. I have been in this business. We didn't have, you know, MeToo back in the day. We didn't know about a lot of things that we know now. We didn't have the rights, we didn't have the wherewithal,” she says.
“When I say we, I mean women, young women, people of color, you name it. We didn't have all of these things that the kids kind of have now. So if I didn't, I wouldn't choose it for her if I had to push her into something of a career," she says. "A lot of times people say, ‘But you went to Harvard.’ And, ‘Why would you go and model now?’ and sometimes I am like, ‘Yeah yeah,’ but then on the other side, I am like, ‘Wait a minute, well, why wouldn't she?’”
Aoki’s education and background in fashion is also a huge benefit, as it leaves space for her to take on Simmons’ business ventures in the future.
“We're businesswomen too,” Simmons, who is also mother to Ming, 22, Kenzo, 13, Gary, 13 and Wolf, 7, tells ET.
“That's what's underneath it all. Don't let the beauty confuse you. I have an empire I'm turning over to my kids, and they need to know how to run that. They support me and I support them. It doesn't matter what you look like, it matters what's up here. That's something that no one can take away from you. I think that's very important," she says. "And however you get that education is good. It doesn't have to be higher, institutionalized learning. That it doesn't have to be our way. It doesn't have to be everybody's way. But to learn and acquire knowledge and grow, no one can take that away from you. What you look like can come and go.”
She adds, “I want her to have both. But, hey, while you're 20 and beautiful and you look like a beautiful butterfly, go right ahead.”

In the month of July 2022, the gross revenue available from the Value Added Tax (VAT) was N190.256 billion. | https://www.newtelegraphng.com/in-one-month-excess-crude-account-grows-to-470599-54/ | 2022-08-25T05:35:53Z | https://www.newtelegraphng.com/in-one-month-excess-crude-account-grows-to-470599-54/ | false | 1 |
TKO: “The Kilcoyne Opinion” has been observing something you shouldn’t see in baseball, umpires being noticed! Since last Sunday, the umpires have been noticeable in three Cardinals games. Manager Oli Marmol was ejected this past Sunday for arguing a bad strike zone being dictated by plate ump C.B. Bucknor. On Tuesday, the plate ump took extra steps to punch out Albert Pujols on a called third strike. The on Wednesday night, another plate umpire ejects Nolan Arenado after a check swing strikeout. TKO’s take: Umps should be seen, but not heard from. | https://fox2now.com/sports/tko-umps-gone-wild/ | 2022-08-25T05:37:44Z | https://fox2now.com/sports/tko-umps-gone-wild/ | true | null |
The oncology department at St. John’s Hospital has $5,000 to invest in patient care thanks to the Vanderhoof Golf Club.
According to Cindy Daley, director of media, the annual summer fundraiser has been held for at least a decade.
“It’s always been exclusively going to the oncology ward and then what they choose to do with it,” said Daley.
“It’s a cause near and dear to a lot of our hearts. Everybody that we know has had something to do with cancer in and around our area. It’s really important to us that our oncology ward has everything that it needs. They can’t do it for themselves.”
The fundraiser takes the form of a golf scramble tournament, followed by a raffle.
“Every year somebody makes a quilt; it’s usually the hospital guild or the auxiliary. The quilt gets raffled off after golf on that Wednesday night and they make a lot of money off of it usually,” said Daley, adding that the ladies also contribute items for a silent auction or door prizes, along with contributions from local businesses.
“And so it winds up raising quite a bit of money usually,” she said.
Unlike many events, the group didn’t need to cancel their event during the height of COVID.
“We got really lucky because it turns out golf is one of the very few sports that you can actually do during a plague. You’re able to actually go out because you’re outside and as long as you’re not handing sticks across to each other or sharing drinks,” said Daley. “Being out in the open air was really nice. And we were able to do the actual scramble, and then do the auction and everything online.”
They are happy, Daley added, that things are getting back to normal.
Even though COVID is still a concern, she said, it’s nice to gather again.
“For the most part, everybody’s just kind of happy enough to be back together,” she said. | https://www.interior-news.com/community/tournament-raises-money-for-the-cancer-ward-at-vanderhoof-hospital-2/ | 2022-08-25T05:37:44Z | https://www.interior-news.com/community/tournament-raises-money-for-the-cancer-ward-at-vanderhoof-hospital-2/ | false | 11 |

Breakfast is a must for your baby, study says skipping the first meal may give children anxiety later
Among the most important results, Lopez-Gil and the team found that eating breakfast away from home was nearly as detrimental as skipping the meal entirely. The authors suggest that this may be because meals away from home are frequently less nutritious than those prepared at home.
UP NEXT
A recent study found that young people who eat healthy breakfasts at home have higher psychosocial health. While earlier research has indicated the importance of a nutritious breakfast, this is the first study to investigate the reported effects of whether or not children eat breakfast, as well as where and what they consume. These findings offer useful insights and advice for parents and their children.
The findings of the research were published in the journal Frontiers in Nutrition.
"Our results suggest that it is not only important to eat breakfast, but it's also important where young people eat breakfast and what they eat," said first author Dr. Jose Francisco Lopez-Gil of the University of Castilla-La Mancha in Cuenca, Spain. "Skipping breakfast or eating breakfast away from home is associated with increased likelihood of psychosocial behavioral problems in children and adolescents. Similarly, consumption of certain foods/drinks are associated with higher (eg, processed meat) or lower (eg, dairies, cereals) odds of psychosocial behavioral problems."
Breakfast matters
In this study, Lopez-Gil and his collaborators analyzed data from the 2017 Spanish National Health Survey. This survey included questionnaires both about breakfast habits as well as children's psychosocial health, which included characteristics such as self-esteem, mood, and anxiety. The questionnaires were completed by the children's parents, or guardians, and the results included a total of 3,772 Spanish residents between the ages of four and 14.
Among the most important results, Lopez-Gil and the team found that eating breakfast away from home was nearly as detrimental as skipping the meal entirely. The authors suggest that this may be because meals away from home are frequently less nutritious than those prepared at home
The results also showed that coffee, milk, tea, chocolate, cocoa, yogurt, bread, toast, cereals, and pastries were all associated with lower chances of behavioral problems. Surprisingly, eggs, cheese, and ham were linked with higher risks of such issues.
Beyond nutrition
Although this study is limited to Spain, these findings are consistent with research performed elsewhere. The availability of nutritious breakfasts at schools would likely influence the results in some locations.
But other factors, such as the social and family support that young people can receive during breakfast at home, may also play a role in the observed benefits. The authors emphasize the need for further studies to understand the cause-and-effect relationships behind their observations, but they still suggest the usefulness of these results.
"The fact that eating breakfast away from home is associated with greater psychosocial health problems is a novel aspect of our study," said Lopez-Gil. "Our findings reinforce the need to promote not only breakfast as part of a healthy lifestyle routine, but also that it should be eaten at home. Also, to prevent psychosocial health problems, a breakfast that includes dairy and/or cereals, and minimizes certain animal foods high in saturated fat/cholesterol, could help to decrease psychosocial health problems in young people."

Plans for 'community asset' visitor centre approved
- Credit: Google Maps
Plans for a new visitor centre at the Ipswich Garden Suburb country park have been approved.
The proposals from Crest Nicholson housebuilding company were discussed in an Ipswich Borough Council planning and development meeting on Wednesday.
Sarah Cottingham, an agent speaking on behalf of Crest Nicholson, said: "We feel the building has been successfully designed to cater to all users and will provide a destination space for users of Ipswich Park.
"We believe it will be a great community asset."
The centre will be located in a county park integral to the Henley Gate development, which represents about a third of the total Ipswich Garden Suburb.
Plans for the suburb will eventually see it stretch from Henley Road to Tuddenham Road, providing up to 3,500 homes, three new primary schools, a new high school and a new shopping centre.
The development is expected to take a whole decade to complete, but first homes are now being built by Crest Nicholson at Henley Gate.
The new visitor centre will feature an exhibition space and reception area, a community space, a kitchen and café, toilets and changing rooms.

A single-storey building will provide an office and a mess room for rangers who will maintain the park.
The centre will also have timber walls, large areas of glazing and decking, allowing visitors to sit outside during spells of warm weather.
38 car parking spaces have been proposed, including four disabled slots and five electric vehicle charging spaces.
A minimum of 12 cycle spaces will also be provided.
Speaking at the meeting, Councillor Carole Jones, said: "This is a very good application and I'm very happy with it.
"I welcome this proposal."
Following approval from Ipswich Borough Council, further details will now be considered and clarified at the next stage of design.
Upon completion of the country park and visitor centre, the site will be taken over by the borough council which will manage the country park as part of its parks department. | https://www.ipswichstar.co.uk/news/local-council/plans-for-new-ipswich-visitor-centre-approved-9231232 | 2022-08-25T06:09:07Z | https://www.ipswichstar.co.uk/news/local-council/plans-for-new-ipswich-visitor-centre-approved-9231232 | true | 1 |
Conor McGregor has said he doesn’t think fighters should allow their families to watch them compete in the arena following Kamaru Usman’s KO loss. Last Saturday night at UFC 278, Kamaru Usman fell to a devastating knockout defeat at the hands of Leon Edwards in the fifth round of their intense main event.

There is barely a week left to go before deadline day and plenty more transfers that can get over the line. Tottenham have already signed seven new players, to add to Antonio Conte's squad, with three permanent exits and a number of temporary moves confirmed.
It is now time for the Italian to make some big assessments of his squad, to ensure he has the strongest team possible, for the long season ahead. Conte has already outlined his transfer plan for the closing stages of the window.
"This squad is this and if someone goes away then another has to come. This has to be very clear for everybody," he admitted after Spurs' last match.
READ MORE: Adama Traore, Daniel James and the strange Tottenham case of Bryan Gil and another Valencia move
Tanguy Ndombele and Giovani Lo Celso were two players who needed a move this summer, with the duo not being involved in Conte's plans for the season and both have gone abroad for their loans. The likes of Troy Parrott and Dane Scarlett have also secured solid loan moves to help them develop, whilst Joe Rodon's temporary move to France will help him get more game time.
Aside from those already confirmed, there are a number of other players who could secure themselves a loan move. A temporary move to a club abroad isn't necessarily a bad thing, as it can help players develop.
However for some, a loan move to a Premier League side would be much more beneficial and football.london takes a look at those it would seem best to keep in the top flight.
Harry Winks
Winks, along with Ndombele, Lo Celso and Sergio Reguilon, were the four players who haven't been included in Conte's plans for the season. When the summer window first opened, the 26-year-old was heavily linked with a move to Everton.
However those links died down and the rumours have been relatively quiet ever since. Reports suggest there has also been interest from Leeds, but none of these clubs have taken their interest further.
For Winks, a move away seems most important for his own career. The midfielder needs to go somewhere he can get regular football and find some form once again.
A move to another Premier League club would be good for Winks because it's not as if he shouldn't be in the top flight, I just think he is now not going to fit into Conte's Tottenham team. It is almost like the Spurs team have gone up a gear since the Italian came in, but the Englishman has failed to follow.
Bryan Gil
Gil is a young player with great potential, but this is yet to be really seen in the Premier League. After a successful loan spell at Valencia during the second half of last season, a return to the Spanish side for the 2022/23 campaign seems most likely.
In February, Conte's comments to football.london seemed to indicate that the Spaniard wasn't quite suited to the Premier League. "You know that I like to tell the truth and for sure we’re talking about a really good player in Gil, because he has good quality and he understands football quickly," he said.
"In this moment, for sure this league is very tough. This league is different. If you compare this league with other leagues, you play another sport here."
When the youngster first arrived, he admitted that he was told to put some weight on and this is something that is needed to cope with the strength in the top flight. Gil would be pushed off the ball too easily and needed added strength, to improve the quality he has already shown glimpses of.
The 21-year-old showed some solid spells during his pre-season minutes with Spurs this summer, however it seems he will be leaving once again. However, trying to adapt to the Premier League is not going to be done by him returning to play in Spain and therefore Gil is another player who should be going on loan to a top flight club, to help this adaptation.
Japhet Tanganga
Tanganga going on loan to a Premier League side isn't maybe as important, as the defender has made already made 23 top-flight appearances. However, at his young age, remaining in the Premier League would surely only help him continue to develop, before returning and hopefully slotting into Conte's Totteham side.
football.londonunderstands Tanganga's first choice is a move to AC Milan, with advanced talks already being held. However, the move isn't as easy as expected, as the Italian side are willing to include an option to buy the 23-year-old, but Spurs want it as an obligation.
There is also interest from Nottingham Forest and if Tanganga is hoping to return to N17 and break into the regular XI at Tottenham, then a move to a Premier League side could be beneficial, which Oliver Skipp found when he spent a season at Norwich. But perhaps the defender wants more of a fresh start and a chance to experience a foreign league.
Pape Matar Sarr
Sarr is another who could benefit from staying in the English top flight. After he signed for Tottenham last summer, the 19-year-old was loaned back to Metz, for the rest of the season.
The youngster then made the permanent move to the capital this summer and got his chance to impress in pre-season. However once Skipp is back from injury, Conte has a strong midfield quartet to choose from and it is unlikely that Sarr will be given regular game time.
The Senegalese international made 33 Ligue 1 appearances last season and made four goal contributions, giving him the playing experience he needs. Sarr is another Spurs player who has been linked with AC Milan, but there doesn't seem to have been too much talk around his move.
Much like Gil, the 19-year-old could benefit from a move to a Premier League side, to help his adaptation to English football. Sarr's age means he can still develop a lot as a player and if he is going to be in the capital in the near future, settling in by playing for a Premier League side can only help.
These players securing loan moves will give Conte a chance to potentially welcome more players to his Tottenham squad. The temporary moves will also hopefully mean they get game time and develop as players, before returning and adding even more quality to the Italian's side.
There is only one week left of the summer window and Tottenham may have to assess what offers they get for players, rather than being able to take their pick of their next destination. All four need loan moves for the sake of their own careers, but only time will tell where their destinations for the rest of the season will be.

You might not understand what the fuss about cryptocurrencies is all about. Or maybe you understand but find it all rather ridiculous. Either way, you have to concede they are not going anywhere any time soon. You might have to dip your toes into those waters at some point.
Not if the United Nations has its way though. The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development is calling for action to stop the rise of cryptocurrencies in developing countries.
Why are they doing this? Aren’t cryptocurrencies supposed to be the financial liberation tool those in poorly managed and repressive countries need? I thought the UN was all about helping said people find a way out of the mess not of their own making.

I don’t think you need a PhD to figure out why cryptos are popular in developing countries. If we had functioning economies, fully connected to the rest of the globe, we would have a passing interest in crypto too.
The UN acknowledges that we are looking for facilitation of remittances and a hedge against currency and inflation risks.
Hence why 15 of the top 20 countries on share of the population that owns crypto are developing countries according to the UN itself. It is this stat that has jolted the overlords at the UN to call for action.
The UN cites its reasons for calling for curbing cryptos. Full disclosure, I’m not a UN fan. Reading through their reasons I find myself hoping none of their recommendations are adopted anywhere in the world.
Crypto instability
We know this one and there really is no disputing it. ‘Crypto’ and ‘Unstable’ are synonyms.
Chart showing the price history chart of the most popular crypto, Bitcoin, over the last year. In the last 12 months, Bitcoin has reached a high of close to US$68,000 and a low of just under $19,000. That is quite the swing.
Swings can be good, depending on the trades you make. As a result, some made killings when Bitcoin made its historic rise to $68,000 during the pandemic. Unfortunately, when one wins, another usually loses. That’s the game isn’t it?
Personally I’m okay with that if all the parties know that that’s how the game goes. I hate the crypto evangelists that promise/guarantee certain returns for those who invest in crypto. That’s misleading people, these markets cannot be tamed and losses are just as likely to be incurred as profits.
So, if the UN is calling for sanity here, then I begrudgingly have to agree that we need to protect our people. Here in Zimbabwe many people sold their houses to invest in crypto and lost everything. That’s terrible.
The solution for me though is not to curb the rise of crypto but to ensure there is proper education on what cryptos are and what the reality is if one were to invest in them. I’m not even comfortable saying ‘invest’ when it comes to crypto but you get the point.
Threat to governments’ monetary sovereignty
I’m not an anarchist but chips on the table, I am not against diminishing governments’ monetary stability. I’m Zimbabwean, so you have to forgive me if I don’t have any faith in government led systems.
The UN fears that if govts step in to protect financial stability that could make the problem of crypto instability a public one. I agree. Let the wild west be the wild west. Govts should not try to protect gamblers. Their role should end at educating people on how stupid investing in memecoins is.
The UN also fears that if citizens unofficially replace local currencies with crypto as a means of payment that would jeopardise govts’ monetary sovereignty.
Okay, is the UN trying to make Zimbabweans adopt cryptocurrencies? Cause that’s how you get people to support crypto. You tell them this would reduce our exposure to the govt’s monetary policies. Where do we sign up?
The UN goes on inadvertently making the case for why we should adopt crypto. They say stablecoins pose a significant threat to govts especially when they have unmet demand for foreign reserves.
That’s Zimbabwe right there. Our central bank is always strapped for foreign currency assets and so is susceptible to a crypto takeover.
The UN says these cryptos present a risk as legal tender though. I cannot argue with that. We recently discussed the crash of a popular stablecoin that wiped US$40 billion in value. You can only imagine where Zimbabwe would be if we had officially adopted that stablecoin as our legal tender.
Instead of waiting and fending off crypto, the UN advises govts to adopt central bank digital currencies. We have discussed those and our RBZ is well into the research process and looks to introduce them some time not too far away.
Taxation
The UN warns that cryptos can be used to evade and avoid taxes. A terrible thing for govts like Zimbabwe’s that need every single dollar they can get. Imagine how Mthuli would be mad if we got around paying his 4% IMTT by simply switching to crypto.
This is a real problem. We can complain about the govt’s inefficiencies and rampant corruption and say that’s why we don’t want to pay taxes. The fact remains though that an underfunded govt is a problem.
If we are in a tight spot right now, it would be much worse if the govt’s revenue was significantly cut.
How should govts slow the rise of crypto?
The UN has lots of ideas on how govts can achieve this and the first is regulation, regulation, regulation. Everything from crypto exchanges, digital wallets and even decentralised finance should be regulated.
Regulation is always welcome but my resistance against it resurfaces when I note that the UN is suggesting using regulation to curb crypto. They are not advocating for the regularisation of crypto but rather the use of regulations to stifle crypto currencies. I can’t stand behind that.
The UN is also calling for regulated financial institutions to be barred from offering crypto products to their clients. Not only that, they are not to be allowed to even hold crypto themselves. I think Zimbabwe is already there.
In other words, the formal financial sector cannot be allowed to lend any legitimacy to the crypto world.
The suggestion I love is that advertising related to crypto should be regulated. Unfortunately, the formal world has shunned the crypto world for so long that the crypto advertising that happens on social media cannot be regulated.
The best that govts, especially the Zim one, can do at this moment is to actually run its own educational campaigns. Try to balance out the crazy, ludicrous crypto campaigns currently circulating in encrypted inboxes.
With all that done, the UN then reiterates that govts should look at CBDCs. This is a digital world after all and govts have to have their own digital solutions. At the very least they should adapt their current payment systems to the digital era.
What do you think about all this?
I have to say I don’t like how the UN is coaching govts on how to curb cryptocurrencies. Their main fear is that cryptos can render these govts powerless. Who is to say that’s not what we need?
Why does the UN acknowledge that we are looking to hedge against currency and inflation risks and to allow for easy remittances and then go ahead and coach govts on how to block that for us? I don’t get it. It is as if the UN caters for govts and not for their subjects. Curious.
I am not a crypto evangelist but I don’t appreciate what the UN is doing here. But that’s me. Let us know what you think in the comments below. Should govts be trying to stifle cryptocurrencies?

The Bo Jackson-inspired Nike Air Trainer SC High "Auburn," which last appeared in 2017, is preparing for a comeback in September this year. The athlete's alma mater directly influences this colorway, and the piece is covered in white and tart overlays.
The Nike Air Trainer SC High "Auburn" footwear edition is scheduled to arrive on September 3, 2022, at 7.30 PM. Interested shoppers will be able to fetch them online from Nike's SNKRS app as well as a bunch of affiliated retail chains.
Bo Jackson's exclusive shoes will be offered in different sizes: adults, big kids, and little kids. While the adult sizes are $130 per pair, the other two will be sold for $95 and $68, respectively.
Nike Air Trainer SC High appears in Auburn makeup with white and tart overlays
For the uninitiated, Vincent Edward Jackson, aka Bo Jackson, is a former professional football and baseball player. He is the only sports star to receive baseball and football All-Star accolades.
The retired player is counted amongst the finest athletes of Nike. He became the face of Nike Training because of his skill in professional football and baseball, along with his agility. Silhouettes like Nike Air Trainer 1, Air Trainer 2, Air Trainer 3, Air Trainer SC, and Nike Air Trainer SC 2 are well-known for being worn and promoted by Bo. The latest addition to the player's catalog will now appear in the "Auburn" color scheme.
The description of the new Nike Air Trainer SC High Auburn on the SNKRS website says,
“Turn heads in the Air Trainer SC High. These ‘90s-inspired kicks deliver plush cushioning and legendary style. A padded, high-top design gives you an unmistakable silhouette, while Max Air units keep the fit feeling comfortable.”
In honor of Jackson's academic pursuits at the University of Auburn, where he earned the Heisman Trophy in 1985, the next Nike Air Trainer SC High "Auburn" is crafted with the color palette inspired by the university. These pairs feature a perfect balance of sleek nubuck and premium leather panels. Although most of the uppers are crisp white, hits of blue, neon orange, and gray make them more attractive.
First up, the perforated toe tops are built with white tumbled leathers outlined by akin leather mudguards. The tongue flaps adjacent to the toes are made using knitted white and orange elements. These tongues adopt a concord purple hue on the inside, sewn up with Nike Air branding and "Made in Vietnam" tags.
The meshed white tongues are topped with matching lace fasteners that hold up nicely with contrasting orange TPU eyelets. Orange accents are further noticeable on the insoles that are once again stamped with Nike Air swoosh markings and are coupled with padded white inner linings.
The black heels, sporting perforated white leather, are adorned with gray nubuck overlays. To tie up the heel counters, the NIKE lettering is imprinted on the gray surface.
Finalizing the aesthetics are the stylish sole units. The orange midsoles are combined with white outer sole units with visible Air units towards the heels.

Few could rival the charisma and brilliance of Billie Jean King, with the former World No. 1 American garnering a huge following on and off the court. Several people over the years have spoken highly of King, with former American professional lacrosse player Paul Rabil the latest to do so.
King recently attended the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA) match between New York Liberty and Chicago Sky, where she was honored with a personalized jersey to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Title IX, the 1972 American federal civil rights law.
“Such an honor to be given a New York Liberty jersey to commemorate the 50th anniversary of #TitleIX, and to spend some time tonight with Clara Wu, co-owner of the NY Liberty,” King tweeted.
Rabil, the co-founder of the Premier Lacrosse League, was also at the match and used the opportunity to meet King. He later took to social media to shower the 78-year-old with praise and called the meeting a "special moment" for him.
"I don’t think Billie Jean King knows how special this moment was for me — among every life honor & recognition, 39 major titles, her equality & social justice work, one of the greatest ever. What stood out the most? She’s a FIERCE competitor with a passion that lights up an arena," he tweeted.
He also gave special mention to the 12-time singles Grand Slam champion's style.
"Raise your voices, use your platforms" - Billie Jean King speaks out on WNBA star Brittney Griner's situation
Brittney Griner, the Phoenix Mercury center in the WNBA, has been detained in Russia since February after being found guilty of attempting to smuggle illegal narcotics into the country.
The 31-year-old, who was in Russia to compete for UMMC Yekaterinburg, was detained on February 17 after Russian authorities accused her of having hashish oil (a cannabis concentrate) in her luggage at an airport near Moscow.
Billie Jean King has come out in support of Griner, taking to social media to encourage others to use their resources and platform to bring the two-time Olympic gold medalist back to the US.
"Raise your voices. Use your platforms. Bring Brittney Griner home, she tweeted.

Kullu, August 24
Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur said today that those who had joined the BJP recently would have to adopt its ideology.
Asked about the induction of Congress leaders having a different ideology, he said that the BJP was the largest and the most disciplined party in the world. “Opposition to the entry of Congress leaders in the BJP will amount to indiscipline and invite strict action,” he added. He was the chief guest at a state-level Samvad programme with the beneficiaries of the Mukhya Mantri Grihini Suvidha Yojana at Dhalpur here.
Earlier, the Chief Minister virtually interacted with the beneficiaries of the yojana from different districts. The beneficiaries expressed their gratitude to him for launching this scheme and other schemes for women empowerment.
Thakur said, “Himachal Pradesh has become the first state in the country to provide LPG connections to all households. As many as 4.72 lakh gas connections have been provided under the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana and the Mukhya Mantri Grihini Suvidha Yojana at a cost of Rs 160 crore. Three refills are also being provided free of cost under both schemes. A budget provision of Rs 70 crore has been made for the Mukhya Mantri Grihini Suvidha Yojana during the current financial year.”
He said that many effective steps had been taken for the empowerment and welfare of women. He added that more than two lakh women members of self-help groups would benefit from the Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana and the Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana.
Thakur said that the state government was working in a planned manner to make women self-reliant. He added that under the Mukhya Mantri Swavalamban Yojana, a provision of up to 35 per cent subsidy for women entrepreneurs had been made.
He added that the BJP would again form government and make the ‘Mission Repeat’ successful. Education Minister Govind Singh Thakur said that the welfare schemes had brought prosperity to people. Various ministers and MLAs from all districts virtually participated in the programme. | https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/himachal/new-entrants-will-have-to-adopt-bjps-ideology-cm-jai-ram-thakur-425054 | 2022-08-25T06:17:42Z | https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/himachal/new-entrants-will-have-to-adopt-bjps-ideology-cm-jai-ram-thakur-425054 | true | 1 |

Chandigarh, August 24
The Punjab and Haryana High Court has ruled that a gazetted police officer can carry out lawful search of enclosed spaces ‘whether by day or night’ in drug cases.
Justice Sureshwar Thakur of the High Court also made it clear that Section 42 of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act was applicable to the search of buildings, conveyance and enclosed space upon receipt of prior information by the investigating officer concerned when the search was conducted between sunset and sunrise.
Section 42 of the NDPS Act deals with the power of entry, search, seizure and arrest without warrant or authorisation. Justice Thakur held that search in between sunset and sunrise should be made by a gazetted rank officer and/or in his presence or under his authorisation by officials specified in sub Section 1 of Section 42 of the Act.
Justice Thakur asserted: “To summarise the provisions of Section 42 of the Act are applicable to search of buildings, conveyance, and, enclosed space, but the above may apply upon any prior information being received by the investigating officer concerned, and, also when searches’ thereof, become conducted in the interregnum inter-se sunset, and, sunrise”.
Referring to sub-Section 2 of Section 41, Justice Thakur observed that a gazetted rank officer of the police or the Excise Department, either personally or by authorising an officer subordinate to him could make the lawful arrest of the offender at the crime site. He could also make lawful search of the building or conveyance or place “whether by day or by night and, the above valid actions may ensue even from a prior intimation”.
Justice Thakur added a perusal of Section 42(1) of the NDPS Act applied to officers, superior in rank to a peon, sepoy or constable, but not co-equal to or equivalent in rank to a gazetted officer. But prior information leading to search of and seizure from a conveyance in between sunset and sunrise carried out by an officer of a gazetted rank, of the excise or police or other departments of the Central or the State Government was in consonance with the mandate carried in sub-Section 1 of Section 42 of the Act. | https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/punjab/punjab-and-haryana-high-court-gives-more-powers-to-search-officers-in-drug-cases-424993 | 2022-08-25T06:31:52Z | https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/punjab/punjab-and-haryana-high-court-gives-more-powers-to-search-officers-in-drug-cases-424993 | true | 1 |
SPOKANE — Chet Holmgren will be away from the basketball court for an unspecified time after suffering what could be a serious foot injury while contesting LeBron James’ layup at the CrawsOver Pro-Am in Seattle on Saturday.
According to a report from The Athletic’s Shams Charania, the Oklahoma City Thunder fear Holmgren “has suffered ligament damage in his foot.” Charania released another tweet indicating the former Gonzaga standout may have “torn ligaments in his foot.”
Holmgren is seeking further opinions and a timetable for his return will be based on further evaluations, Charania reported.
A spokesperson from the Oklahoma City Thunder told The Oklahoman, “Chet is in the process of undergoing evaluation and when we have an update, we will communicate.”
Less than 2 minutes had elapsed Saturday when Holmgren recovered to defend James on a fast-break opportunity, forcing the Los Angeles Lakers star to miss a layup. Holmgren landed awkwardly and came up limping, retreating to the bench before leaving the building.
Due to slippery conditions caused by condensation from the sellout crowd at Seattle Pacific’s Royal Brougham Pavilion, Crawford elected to end the game shy of halftime.
Crawford explained the decision in a tweet hours after the game: “Few things.. 1) I’m sorry for those who couldn’t get in. Truly… 2) I had to make the decision to stop the game to protect the players. Tough, but right decision. 3) Thank you to all of the stars showing our city love!!!!”
Months after being selected No. 2 overall by Oklahoma City at the NBA draft, Holmgren returned to Seattle to make his second appearance at the star-studded Pro-Am this summer.
Fans set up tents overnight to secure seats for Saturday’s nightcap, which marked James’ debut at the annual event put on by Seattle native and NBA journeyman Jamal Crawford.
Along with Holmgren and James, the game also featured Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum, top overall draft pick Paolo Banchero, recent Atlanta Hawks acquisition Dejounte Murray, former All-Star guard Isaiah Thomas, Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon, former Washington State standout CJ Elleby, recent draft picks Marjon Beauchamp and Tari Eason.
Holmgren was set to make his NBA debut on Oct. 19 against the Timberwolves in his hometown of Minnesota, but the injury could delay the start of his professional career, if not cause him to miss a large chunk of his rookie season.
The 7-footer made five appearances at NBA Summer League in Salt Lake City and Las Vegas, averaging 14 points, 8.4 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 2.0 steals, and 2.8 blocks. | https://www.yakimaherald.com/report-holmgren-may-have-suffered-foot-injury-at-crawsover/article_edc7c03e-2429-11ed-9924-3b69e09194cd.html | 2022-08-25T06:32:11Z | https://www.yakimaherald.com/report-holmgren-may-have-suffered-foot-injury-at-crawsover/article_edc7c03e-2429-11ed-9924-3b69e09194cd.html | false | 3 |
BALTIMORE (AP) — On a night when the Chicago White Sox again gave themselves plenty of RBI opportunities, nobody had more than Gavin Sheets.
Three times, Sheets went to the plate with the bases loaded Wednesday. He came through on two of those plate appearances, driving in three runs in Chicago's 5-3 win over the Baltimore Orioles.
“It was funny. I think the ball I hit the best was the out — the last at-bat,” Sheets said. “That's baseball. Just try to put good at-bats together and get the job done in that situation.”
Lucas Giolito pitched impressively into the seventh inning and Yoán Moncada pulled off a slick double play for the White Sox. Chicago left 14 men on base after stranding 13 the night before. They managed to split the two games despite all those missed chances.
Giolito (10-7) allowed one run and four hits in 6 1/3 innings, rebounding from last week's effort in which he gave up seven runs in three innings against Houston. Then Kendall Graveman was helped out of a bases-loaded jam in the seventh thanks to Moncada's play at third.
With the bases loaded and one out and Chicago up 3-1, Baltimore's Jorge Mateo hit a bouncer right at the base. Moncada lunged to his right to snag it, and while doing so tagged third with his bare hand and then his left foot. Then he threw to first to complete the twin killing.
“Everything about it was outstanding, especially the significance," White Sox manager Tony La Russa said. “He goes to his right as good as anybody in the league. He makes that awkward throw as good as anybody.”
The White Sox remained four games behind first-place Cleveland in the AL Central. Austin Hays homered for the Orioles, who stayed 2 1/2 back of the last wild card in the American League.
The White Sox loaded the bases with one out in the first against Spenser Watkins (4-4), and Sheets came through with a two-run single. Baltimore scored a run in the fourth when Adley Rutschman hit a leadoff double and eventually scored on a groundout by Ryan Mountcastle.
In the seventh, Chicago again loaded the bases with one out. José Abreu struck out, but Sheets beat out a roller to the shortstop for an infield single and a 3-1 lead.
The White Sox added another two runs in the eighth on a wild pitch and an RBI single by AJ Pollock. Sheets came up with the bases loaded a third time that inning but lined out to right for the third out.
Hays hit a two-run homer in the ninth to make it 5-3.
The White Sox have had a frustrating season, but there's still time for them to make a run, especially if their starting pitching clicks. Dylan Cease and Johnny Cueto have been sharp, but Michael Kopech just went on the injured list and Giolito and Lance Lynn have ERAs over 5.00.
If Giolito's effort Wednesday was a sign of things to come, it could give Chicago a real boost down the stretch.
RARITY
Sheets became the third player this season to bat with the bases loaded three times in a game, according to Sportradar. Cal Raleigh of Seattle did it July 4 at San Diego, and Wilmer Flores of San Francisco did it May 7 against St. Louis.
ROSTER MOVE
The Orioles claimed RHP Phoenix Sanders off waivers from the Tampa Bay Rays.
TRAINER'S ROOM
White Sox: OF Eloy Jiménez didn't play after being hit on the left elbow by a pitch Tuesday.
UP NEXT
Lynn (3-5) starts for the White Sox against Jordan Lyles (9-9) in the series finale Thursday night. Lynn is 2-2 with a 3.06 ERA over his last six starts.

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 25 — Malaysia’s leading index (LI) rebounded 5.3 per cent year-on-year to 111.7 points in June 2022 after a rise of 2.3 per cent in May 2022 (111.3 points), said the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DoSM).
DoSM said the increase was mainly backed by the increment in real imports of other basic precious and other non-ferrous metals driven by the import of platinum-based metals and influenced by the low base effect from the previous year (June 2021: 106.1 points).
“Concomitantly, the monthly change of LI increased 0.4 per cent in the reference month attributed mainly by real imports of other basic precious and other non-ferrous metals (0.6 per cent) and the number of new companies registered (0.6 per cent),” it said in a statement today.
DoSM said that in June 2022, the LI which shows the ability to anticipate the future direction of the economy signals confidence towards further growth in the coming months through smoothed long-term trend index movements that are intact above 100.0 points.
“This is in line with the anticipated promising signs of strong domestic and export demand as well as the reopening of international borders amid slow global economic growth,” it said.
For the current economic scenario, the coincident index (CI) spiked 12.6 per cent y-o-y to record 121.5 points in June 2022 in tandem with the economic performance in the second quarter of this year where strong growth was recorded in June 2022, it said.
DoSM said furthermore, the CI registered 0.2 per cent month-on-month led by the increases in industrial production index (0.9 per cent), capacity utilisation in the manufacturing sector (0.7 per cent) and total employment in the manufacturing sector (0.2 per cent).
“The diffusion index for LI recorded 42.9 per cent in June 2022.
“At the same time, the diffusion index for CI remained at 100.0 per cent since December 2021 representing that all the CI components increased over the past six months,” it added.

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Freya Pharma Solutions, a late clinical stage pharmaceutical company focusing on the development of effective pharmaceutical therapies for women diagnosed with Female Sexual Interest/Arousal Disorder (FSIAD), today announced the filing of new patent applications for improved treatment of FSIAD.
Last year Freya, Pharma Solutions acquired all Intellectual Property (IP) on 2 innovative drugs, Lybrido and Lybridos, developed for the treatment of women suffering from FSIAD. With the new patent applications announced today, Freya will significantly strengthen its IP position in this area, and add strong additional protection up until 2042, thereby extending its value life cycle.
Upcoming pivotal phase 3 trial
Freya Pharma Solutions plans to conduct a pivotal phase 3 clinical trial to confirm the efficacy and safety of Lybrido in women suffering from FSIAD. In June this year a clinical trial application was submitted to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for scientific advice on the upcoming pivotal phase 3 clinical trial with Lybrido for the treatment of FSIAD. The phase 3 clinical trial will be conducted within the European Union in accordance with Good Clinical Practices and the ethical principles stated in the Declaration of Helsinki. It will comply with the EU Clinical Trial Regulation (No. 536/2014), all other applicable laws and regulations, as well as requirements of applicable Member States where the study is undertaken.
Dr. Jan van der Mooren, Chief Medical Officer of Freya, stated:
"Lybrido is a unique therapeutic concept, both by its combination of testosterone and sildenafil, as well as by its dual route, dual release, fixed dose system, and as such achieving the optimal synergy of both active ingredients. Lybrido will be an innovative drug in a market with very few approved drugs in the United States, and no drug being approved in Europe so far. With the new patent applications Freya will further strengthen its IP position and provide strong protection for effective and safe treatment for women suffering from FSIAD."
About FSIAD
Low sexual desire is consistently reported as the most common sexual complaint in women. As a result, many women are dissatisfied with their sex lives, which often affects their social and emotional wellbeing. FSIAD is a sexual dysfunction that is defined in the 2013 version of the DSM-5 Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, a publication by the American Psychiatric Association, as a persistent lack or significant reduction of sexual interest and/or arousal. Persons can be medically diagnosed after having a well-defined number of symptoms causing clinically significant distress and which have persisted for a minimum of six months. The disorder is specified by severity level and subtyped into lifelong versus acquired, generalized versus situational.
About Lybrido
A total of 20 phase 1 and phase 2a trials and large-scale phase 2b trials in 17 research sites in the US have been conducted to date. These trials have investigated the efficacy and safety of two novel on-demand pharmacological treatments that have been designed to treat two FSIAD subgroups: women with low sensitivity for sexual cues (Lybrido) and women with over-activation of sexual inhibition (Lybridos). Lybrido increases central sexual motivation and physiological sexual responses, such as swelling of vaginal erectile tissue and lubrication. The therapy can be taken 'on demand' and helps to increase central sexual motivation from 3 to 6 hours after intake. This treatment consists of a novel (dual-route, dual-release, fixed-dose) combination tablet consisting of a testosterone coating for sublingual administration and an inner-core component containing the phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE 5) inhibitor, sildenafil. The inner-core component is coated with a delayed-release matrix to ensure that the peak plasma concentration of the sildenafil coincides with the window of increased sexual motivation induced by the testosterone component. Thus, this combination enables an increase in genital arousal through an increase in responsivity to sexual stimuli.
About Freya Pharma Solutions
Freya Pharma Solutions is a late clinical stage company focused on developing effective pharmaceutical therapies for FSIAD, building upon fifteen years of solid research. The company has two compounds in development, Lybrido and Lybridos, to address the range of potential causes of FSIAD. Based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Freya aims to offer patients a convenient, personalized 'on demand' solution for this recognized unmet medical need.

New projections from WARC indicate global ad expenditures will rise by 8.3 percent this year to reach $880.9 billion, with growth slowing significantly in 2023.
WARC has already downgraded its projections for 2022 and 2023 by $90 billion and is forecasting that ad revenues will only rise by 2.6 percent in 2023. This year is expected to be lifted by the U.S. midterm elections and the World Cup in Qatar in November.
AVOD is seen as a bright spot, WARC notes, rising faster than the overall market this year and next. WARC anticipates ad revenues in the video streaming sector will grow by 8.4 percent this year and 7 percent next year. Within this, AVOD will be up 8 percent in 2022 and 7.6 percent in 2023 to reach a value of almost $65 billion. YouTube is expected to have a 39.4 percent share of that market this year, with that eroding as Disney+ and Netflix introduce their ad-supported tiers.
BVOD is also on the rise, with revenues on track to grow by 9.7 percent this year and 5.2 percent next year. Linear TV will benefit from this year’s sports and election cycles, growing by 3.6 percent to reach $180 billion before dropping by 4.5 percent next year.
“With the growth rate of global output now set to halve and acute supply-side pressures fanning inflation, the economic slowdown has removed close to $90 billion from global ad market growth prospects this year and next,” said James McDonald, director of data, intelligence and forecasting at WARC. “Yet brands are still spending as the Covid recovery continues, and global ad trade remains on course to top $1 trillion in value by 2025. Platforms with rich sources of first-party data—most notably Amazon, Google and Apple—are well placed to weather future headwinds by offering measured performance in a climate where return on investment becomes paramount.” | https://worldscreen.com/global-adspend-set-8-percent-gain-2022/ | 2022-08-25T06:39:25Z | https://worldscreen.com/global-adspend-set-8-percent-gain-2022/ | false | 2 |

The Jharkhand government has warned media houses of taking legal action for news reports linking Chief Minister Hemant Sorens name to a person against whom ED conducted raids in multiple locations and recovered two AK series rifles.
The Enforcement Directorate raided various places in Jharkhand and several other states on Wednesday and recovered the rifles from a house here as part of an ongoing money-laundering investigation into alleged illegal mining in the state.
However, the Ranchi police later said that the weapons belonged to the force and two constables were suspended in this connection.
“Certain news reports by media platforms including a few national TV channels point to a misleading ploy and attempt to intentionally link the Chief Minister of Jharkhand to a private individual” against whom the ED raids were conducted, the CMs secretariat said in a statement on Wednesday.
Describing this as unfortunate and condemnable, the statement said if the state government comes across any further malicious reports and tweets/ digital posts (by media platforms), it will be dealt with as per due legal provisions.
It said the Jharkhand government has provided cooperation to all investigations undertaken by central agencies and it supports freedom of the press.
The rifles were found in a house in Ranchi, owned by a person named Prem Prakash.
As it was raining, two constables while returning from duty on August 23 had left their weapons with Prakashs staff whom they know, Ranchi police said. The two constables were suspended with immediate effect, police said. The ED searches were carried out after fresh information came to the fore following the questioning of two persons arrested earlier in the case.

Successful NYC Owner/Operator Plans to Grow Frozen Yogurt and Soft Serve Brand Nationally
New York, NY (RestaurantNews.com) New York City’s leading self-serve frozen yogurt shop, 16 Handles, has been acquired by the brand’s largest franchisee. The 30+ unit franchise brand will now be led by New York entrepreneur Neil Hershman, who plans to grow the regional brand outside of the Tri-State area through an aggressive franchise push. Details of the transaction were not disclosed.
Hershman will immediately retain the role of CEO and owner of 16 Handles. He is joined by investor and co-owner Danny Duncan, who will serve as the brand’s Chief Creative Officer. Duncan is a comedic YouTuber who has amassed over 1.5 billion views on the platform and generated over $50 million in merchandise sales from 2020-2021.
16 Handles was founded by Solomon Choi in 2008. It has since grown to stores across five states and sets itself apart with modern store design, an exclusive and addictive product lineup, and unparalleled customer experience. The menu features 16 different frozen desserts, 50+ toppings and sauces, as well as a variety of frozen novelties such as cakes, take-home pints and toppings to-go.
“I came to New York City in my 20s and started 16 Handles as part of my lifelong dream and passion to create my own brand and build it into something great. Today, I see this same desire and fire in Neil as a successful franchisee who will now take over the direction of this iconic New York City dessert brand,” said Choi. “I want to see 16 Handles grow and evolve, and Neil has the right mindset to set lofty goals and put the right plan together, which is exactly the type of leadership the brand needs.”
Over the past three years, Hershman has quickly built a dessert empire throughout Manhattan, including a newly constructed Times Square 16 Handles location. He currently owns five 16 Handles shops (Murray Hill, East Village, Chelsea, Tribeca and Times Square), last year debuted NYC’s first-ever Dippin’ Dots ice cream store in Flatiron District and has since opened two additional stores in Brooklyn and Times Square this year. Hershman also recently opened Captain Cookie & the Milkman, a popular cookie and ice cream company started in Washington DC, near NYU’s campus.
“16 Handles is a beloved brand in the New York region and there is so much potential for it to dominate in countless other markets across the country. Our leadership team has experience owning and operating our store locations, which gives us unparalleled insight into our products, business model and customers,” said Hershman. “The soft serve and frozen yogurt market has continued to be an attractive investment for operators due to the high margin, low labor business model. 16 Handles created a brand for a broader demographic – not just kids – and continues to bring in new customers with its head turning partnerships, ranging from Broadway Shows like Dear Evan Hansen to national food and beverage partners like Junior’s Cheesecake and Oatly. With the new ownership, 16 Handles has both the benefits of an established business, having decade old stores with continued revenue increases year over year, and a startup, with the ability to test and launch innovative ideas and partnerships quickly and efficiently.”
“It’s important for me to invest in a company that has a great product, but also a company that brings people happiness,” said Duncan. “I recognized 16 Handles’ success in New York City and knew if it could succeed there, it could succeed anywhere. I’m excited to open my own 16 Handles in my hometown of Englewood, Florida, and to help lead franchise expansion throughout the U.S.”
The total initial investment to open a 16 Handles franchise ranges from $228,250 to $671,000. The brand boasts the highest average unit volume in the frozen yogurt dessert space, averaging $734,451. For more information on 16 Handles franchise opportunities, visit 16handles.com/franchise or email franchise@16handles.com.
About 16 Handles
16 Handles opened its first store in Manhattan’s East Village in 2008, becoming the first self-serve frozen yogurt shop in New York City. Since then, the brand has expanded to over 30 locations with a menu that includes frozen yogurt, ice cream, vegan soft serve, endless toppings, drinks, and other treats & snacks. Each shop’s full menu is available in store and via the 16 Handles app. In addition to creating irresistible desserts, 16 Handles works closely with local and national organizations in partnerships and fundraisers.

Black August uplifted as alternative Black History Month
By ALMAZ ABEDJE
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — For Jonathan Peter Jackson, a direct relative of two prominent members of the Black Panther Party, revolutionary thought and family history have always been intertwined, particularly in August.
That’s the month in 1971 when his uncle, the famed Panther George Jackson, was killed during an uprising at San Quentin State Prison in California. A revolutionary whose words resonated inside and out of the prison walls, he was a published author, activist and radical thought leader.
To many, February is the month dedicated to celebrating Black Americans’ contributions to a country where they were once enslaved. But Black History Month has an alternative: It’s called Black August.
First celebrated in 1979, Black August was created to commemorate Jackson’s fight for Black liberation. Fifty-one years since his death, Black August is now a monthlong awareness campaign and celebration dedicated to Black freedom fighters, revolutionaries, radicals and political prisoners, both living and deceased.
The annual commemorations have been embraced by activists in the global Black Lives Matter movement, many of whom draw inspiration from freedom fighters like Jackson and his contemporaries.
“It’s important to do this now because a lot of people who were on the radical scene during that time period, relatives and non-relatives, who are like blood relatives, are entering their golden years,” said Jonathan Jackson, 51, of Fair Hill, Maryland.
George Jackson was 18 when he was arrested for robbing a gas station in Los Angeles in 1960. He was convicted and given an indeterminate sentence of one year to life and spent the next decade at California’s Soledad and San Quentin prisons, much of it in solitary confinement.
While incarcerated, Jackson began studying the words of revolutionary theoreticians such as Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin, who advocated class awareness, challenging institutions and overturning capitalism through revolution. Founding leaders of the Panthers, including Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale, were also inspired by Marx, Lenin and Chinese Communist leader Mao Tse-tung.
Jackson became a leader in the prisoner rights movement. His letters from prison to loved ones and supporters were compiled in the bestselling books “Soledad Brother” and “Blood in My Eye.”
Inspired by his words and frustrated with his situation, George’s younger brother, Jonathan, initiated a takeover at the Marin County Superior Court in California in 1970. He freed three inmates and held several courthouse staff hostage, in an attempt to demand the release of his brother and two other inmates, known as the Soledad Brothers, who were accused of killing a correctional officer. Jonathan was killed as he tried to escape, although it’s disputed whether he was killed in a courtroom shootout or fatally shot while driving away with hostages.
George was killed on Aug. 21, 1971, during a prison uprising. Inmates at San Quentin prison began formally commemorating his death in 1979, and from there, Black August was born.
“I certainly wish that more people knew about George’s writings (and) knew about my father’s sacrifice on that fateful day in August,” said Jonathan Jackson, who wrote the foreword to “Soledad Brother” in the early ’90s, shortly after graduating from college.
Monifa Bandele, a leader in the Movement for Black Lives, a national coalition of BLM groups, says Black August is about learning the vast history of Black revolutionary leaders. That includes figures such as Nat Turner, who is famous for leading a slave rebellion on a southern Virginia plantation in August 1831, and Marcus Garvey, the leader of the Pan-Africanism movement and born in August 1887. It includes events such as the Haitian Revolution in 1791 and the March on Washington in 1963, both taking place in the month of August.
“This idea that there was this one narrow way that Black people resisted oppression is really a myth that is dispelled by Black August,” said Bandele, who is also a member of the Malcolm X Grassroots Movement, a group that raises awareness of political prisoners.
“And what we saw happen after the 1970s is that it grew outside of the (prison) walls because, as people who were incarcerated came home to their families and communities, they began to do community celebrations of Black August,” she added.
The ways of honoring this month also come in various forms and have evolved over the years. Some take part in fasting, while others use this time to study the ways of their predecessors. Weekly event series are also common during Black August, from reading groups to open mic nights.
Sankofa, a Black-owned cultural center and coffee shop in Washington that has served the D.C. community for nearly 25 years, wraps up a weekly open mic night in honor of Black August on Friday. The event has drawn local residents of all ages, many who have shared stories, read poetry and performed songs with the theme of rebellion.
“This month is all about resistance and celebrating our political prisoners and using all of the faculties that we have to free people who are in prison, let me say, unjustly,” emcee Ayinde Sekou said to the crowd during a recent event at Sankofa.
Jonathan Jackson, George’s nephew, also believes that there are largely systemic reasons as to why Black August, and his family history specifically, are not widely taught.
“It’s difficult sometimes for radicals who were not assassinated, per se, to enter into the popular discourse,” he said. “George and Jonathan were never victims. They took action, and they were killed taking that action, and sometimes that’s very difficult to understand for people who will accept a political assassination.”
Jackson hopes to honor his father’s and uncle’s legacy through documenting the knowledge of elders from that era, as a means of continuing the fight.
“We need to get those testimonies. … We need to understand what happened, so that we can improve on what they did. I think now is as good a time as any to get that done,” he said.

Japan's national police chief on Thursday said he will resign to take responsibility over the fatal shooting of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at a campaign speech last month.
National Police Agency Chief Itaru Nakamura's announcement came as his agency released a report on how it failed to save Abe's life on July 8 when he was assassinated in Nara in western Japan.
The police report found holes in Abe's police protection that allowed the alleged attacker to shoot him from behind.
Nakamura did not say when his resignation would be official.
The alleged gunman, Tetsuya Yamagami, was arrested at the scene and is currently under mental evaluation until late November. Yamagami told police that he targeted Abe because of the former leader's link to the Unification Church, which he hated.
Abe's family paid tribute to him in a private ritual Buddhist ritual Thursday marking the 49th day of his assassination. | https://www.nbcconnecticut.com/news/national-international/japan-police-chief-to-resign-over-shinzo-abe-assassination/2859087/ | 2022-08-25T06:52:24Z | https://www.nbcconnecticut.com/news/national-international/japan-police-chief-to-resign-over-shinzo-abe-assassination/2859087/ | true | 23 |
Why B2B buyers now hate traditional B2B selling
Most salespeople say their organizations aren't ready for online selling.
Nearly all (86%) B2B buyers want to be sold to virtually, according to a new survey. However, most salespeople say their sales organizations aren’t yet able to handle this.
Buyers like the on-line experience because they hate traditional sales techniques. Here are the five ones they hate the most, according to a report by Showpad, a revenue enablement technology provider:
- Sellers not taking “no” for an answer even once it’s been made clear they are not interested (48%).
- Persistent calls and messages (47%).
- Getting hassled after a presentation (31%).
- Salespeople not knowing their products (27%).
- Getting sent too much information (24%).
Read next: The B2B sales process is more effective now than pre-COVID
B2B buyers want B2C experiences. More than 75% of buyers expect the role of social media in B2B sales to increase over the next five years. Nearly 60% say they’ve already made a purchase following a metaverse or augmented reality demo.
The social media they’re referring to isn’t one dedicated to business. Here’s the ones they are already using the most frequently to make business purchases:
- Facebook (69%).
- Instagram (57%).
- YouTube (48%).
- LinkedIn (26%).
Salespeople get it. Nearly 90% of B2B sellers agree about the importance of social media and which channels are the most important. This is understandable because 79% say they have a clear understanding of digital-first selling. Unfortunately, they don’t feel the same about their organizations: Only 27% say their business sales team fully incorporates digital selling.
This is despite the fact that 74% say their firm has a standardized system for this and 71% saying the company is currently spending enough on tech to support sales teams. The problem: 53% feel they could use more training in digital sales.
Read next: How to align B2B sales and marketing teams
For the report Showpad surveyed 508 U.S. and U.K. technology, manufacturing and finance companies with annual revenues ranging from $2 million to $1 billion. Job titles included practitioners, managers, directors, and executives across sales, marketing and enablement teams.
Why we care. It’s clearly past time for old-school, pressure sales tactics to go away. Salespeople, being closest to the customers, know this. Unfortunately, they may be operating in organizations or under managers that don’t fully get it yet. It’s heartening to see the huge number of salespeople who say the problem isn’t the tech or the spending on it. The biggest roadblocks appear to be institutional inertia and training. The latter can help get over the former. | https://martech.org/why-b2b-buyers-now-hate-traditional-b2b-selling/ | 2022-08-25T07:04:48Z | https://martech.org/why-b2b-buyers-now-hate-traditional-b2b-selling/ | true | 1 |
Treatment of WA children in Banksia Hill Detention Centre rolling lockdowns ‘unlawful’
By Tim Dornin
A teenage boy was unlawfully locked in his cell for up to a day at a time at Perth’s troubled Banksia Hill Detention Centre, the Western Australian Supreme Court has ruled.
Prompting calls for more appropriately trained officers, Justice Paul Tottle found the boy’s treatment was not authorised under the Young Offenders Act despite the facility’s problems with inadequate staffing.
Justice Tottle described such confinement as severe and said it could result in considerable harm.
“Confining children to their sleeping quarters in a detention centre for long hours, thus effectively confining them in isolation, can only be characterised as an extraordinary measure – one that should only be implemented in rare or exceptional circumstances,” he said.
“Among the many reasons why it should be so characterised is because of the very significant harm such confinement can do to children in detention, many of whom are already psychologically vulnerable.”
In a case brought by the Aboriginal Legal Service of Western Australia, the court found the boy had unlawfully spent 20 hours or more of each day locked in his cell on more than 25 separate occasions between January and July this year.
He was aged 14 when first detained but turned 15 while on remand.
The ALSWA said it had repeatedly raised serious concerns over the legality of the lockdowns at the youth detention centre with the Corrective Services Minister Bill Johnstone and the Department of Justice.
Chief executive Dennis Eggington said after seeing no improvement it had no choice but to seek a declaration by the court.
“The conditions at Banksia Hill breach international human rights standards and amount to unlawful solitary confinement,” he said.
“These children deserve to be treated with respect and dignity, not locked in a cell all day with only 10 minutes out or none at all.
“They need fresh air, human connection, education and adults to mentor them. If they are provided with these basic things, they will not act out.”
In his judgment, Justice Tottle said he accepted his ruling might cause practical problems, especially in light of the chronic staff shortages at the detention centre.
He said it was a matter that would “weigh heavily” but so too would the harm that might be caused to detainees by confining them to their sleeping quarters on a regular basis for long hours.
“That harm may affect the lives of the detainees for years to come,” he said.
Mr Eggington said the answer was for the department to urgently employ suitable staff on secondment from other areas and partner with Aboriginal and other community organisations to provide mentors for the young detainees to make a positive difference in their lives.
The ALSWA is also acting for more than 20 other children who have submitted individual complaints about the lockdowns, lack of mental health services, education and recreation over the past six months.

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/2713626384290/julian-gressel-s-equalizer-allows-whitecaps-to-salvage-draw-with-rsl | 2022-08-25T07:12:09Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2713626384290/julian-gressel-s-equalizer-allows-whitecaps-to-salvage-draw-with-rsl | false | 12721 |

Bristol: Reggae orchestra launches Windrush Choir
- Published
An orchestra has celebrated the 60th anniversary of Jamaican independence from the UK by launching a Windrush choir.
Bristol Reggae Orchestra recently launched the Windrush Reggae Choir, led by voice coach Gena Rose.
The six-month project will learn from the Windrush generation and their descendants, using funding from the government's Windrush Day Grant Fund.
Ms Rose said the singers were "absolutely brilliant".
The choir is one of 35 projects across England given a share of £500,000 to deliver projects which commemorate the history and contributions of the Windrush generation to British culture.

Kenyans and Taiwanese are among the hundreds of people trafficked to Southeast Asia and forced to work for telecom scam networks based in Laos and Cambodia.
The Embassy of the Republic of Kenya in Thailand has issued an official warning to its citizens regarding the risks of such scams
The East African reports that the Kenyan government took action last week to rescue citizens trapped by phone scam networks in Cambodia and Laos, as well as in Myanmar and Vietnam, among others.
The Embassy warned of false advertisements for teaching jobs in Laos and Thailand, as well as Vietnam and Cambodia.
1/4 EMBASSY WARNS KENYANS AGAINST APPLYING FOR FAKE JOBS IN THAILAND.
The Embassy of the Republic of Kenya to Thailand is warning Kenyans against applying for fake sales and teaching jobs in Thailand, Laos, Viet Nam and Cambodia— Embassy of the Republic of Kenya in Thailand _@KEB (@embassy_kenya) August 21, 2022
According to the embassy, a large number of young Kenyan women trafficked to Southeast Asia are forced into sexual exploitation, particularly in Myanmar.
“Once they [Kenyans] are in Thailand, local networks then whisk them illegally across the border to Myanmar, where they are received by armed rebels and taken to “textile factories” to engage in all manner of work, including money laundering under the watchful eyes of armed men and the managers of the factories,” the Kenyan embassy said in a statement on Monday.
Meanwhile, Taiwan has sounded the alarm as well, with police forces launching rescue operations to rescue trafficked citizens.
Taiwanese nationals are among the large number of young Asian people lured by trafficking rings on social media and forced to work for telecom scam networks in the region.
Taiwan’s National Police Agency (NPA) has found based on a check of flight records that around 1,000 Taiwanese have traveled to Cambodia per month in recent months but only about 100 per month have returned.
It believes that about 2,000 Taiwanese human trafficking victims are still in Cambodia against their will, although the number could be as high as 5,000.
Alarm Bells Ring Around the World
Cambodia made headlines around the world last week when 42 Vietnamese workers fled from a casino in Kandal Province by swimming across a river to the southern Vietnamese province of An Giang.
The Chinese manager of the casino where the Vietnamese workers were being held captive has been arrested by Cambodian police, while Vietnamese police have identified four human trafficking rings involved in the operation.
Meanwhile, Thailand officially requested assistance from authorities in Laos in March this year to rescue a number of Thai nationals who had been trapped in Bokeo Province. The Governor of Thailand’s Chiang Rai Province, Phassakorn Boonyalak, reached out to the Lao Governor of Bokeo Province, leading to the rescue of 15 Thai nationals who had been forced to work at a scam call center located in the Golden Triangle Special Economic Zone.

Victims at Both Ends
The Sydney Morning Herald reported on Sunday that Australians are scammed out of billions of dollars each year by call center operations located in Laos and other parts of Southeast Asia.
“The thing is, people on both ends are victims. The people who are forced to come in and do this, they’re being trafficked in, and then they’re forced to meet targets with respect to their victims,” explains Jason Tower, Myanmar country director at the United States Institute of Peace, who has conducted research into the rise of online scam centers and human trafficking rings across the region.
Trafficking of persons from faraway locations is not a new phenomenon in Laos, with young African footballers reportedly trafficked to Laos in 2015. | https://laotiantimes.com/2022/08/25/kenya-and-taiwan-warn-citizens-of-trafficking-to-laos-cambodia/ | 2022-08-25T07:23:10Z | https://laotiantimes.com/2022/08/25/kenya-and-taiwan-warn-citizens-of-trafficking-to-laos-cambodia/ | false | 1 |

Radio Waves, Echoes of Yesteryear will take a nostalgic look at the Firestone Radio Hour, a live classical radio program which was broadcast on NBC from 1928-1957. The popular show featured leading opera stars who sang selections from opera and operetta.
Gordon Turk, OGCMA's Organist-in-Residence and international concert organist, will be play piano and organ accompaniment, as well as playing some virtuosic 'barn-stormer' organ favorites with a holiday flavor.
Jason Tramm, OGCMA's Director of Music Ministries, will act as the program's "radio announcer" as emcee/commentator.
Renowned international bass singer Kevin Short will perform opera highlights, including arias from Mozart's Don Giovanni and George Bizet's Carmen, as well as show-tunes and nostalgia songs, in addition to the theme song from the Firestone Radio Hour If I Could Tell You.
Kevin has thrilled audiences around the globe in a wide range of repertoire ranging from Mozart's Die Entführung aus dem Serail and Monteverdi's L'incoronazione di Poppea, to Verdi's Attila and Don Carlos, and Bizet's Carmen.

A young Scottish woman told her loved ones to "enjoy life" after she passed away from cancer this week.
Sophy Mitchell tragically died away this week at the age of 31 just months after she was diagnosed with cervical cancer, with the news announced by her loving husband. Given her terminal diagnosis after returning from a holiday in April earlier this year, Sophy had written an emotional message for her loved ones to be shared after she passed away.
Speaking on Wednesday, Sophy's husband Kevin Mitchell shared on social media that his wife had died at the Roxburghe House hospice in Dundee.

The night before, the couple had said that Sophy had taken a "bad turn", before announcing the local college worker's death the following day, reports the Record.
He wrote: "This is the best way to inform, everybody as I know people message Sophy everyday. But Sophy has taken a turn for the worst, she is comfortable and resting.
"There will not be any visiting apart from close family. please everybody pray for Sophy. Sophy has made this so easy for me with her bravery. Love her so much x"
Hoping to give her loved ones one last message after her death, Kevin said that Sophy had written a letter to be shared when she passed away.
It read: "If you are reading this then my amazing husband has announced my death…
"Well that’s me, I’ve went to “sleep” for good.

She began sharing her cancer journey to inspire others.
The brave fighter had recently fulfilled her dying wish of being on Loose Women as she enjoyed a Zoom call from her hospital bed with stars from the hit TV show.
She even received a heartfelt message from Lorraine Kelly two days ago.
In a touching note, accompanied by some goodies, the presenter said: "To Sophy, thinking of you. Sending so much love. Lorraine xxxx"

GCSE results day: why asking teenagers to ‘be more resilient’ is a mistake
‘Be more resilient’ is a phrase often thrown at our younger generation. Such is the concern around the lack of grit among young people that they are regularly disdainfully referred to as ‘the snowflake generation’.
And as students across the UK receive their GCSE results today, and grades are inevitably expected to reflect the disruption the pandemic has had on education over the last two years, it has unsurprisingly led to yet more calls for teens to show more resilience.
It begs the question where does resilience come from? The latest research suggests that despite its heavy usage, it’s one of our most misused words. Resilience isn’t something that some of us have and others lack. Indeed resilience isn’t an individual attribute at all, rather it’s the strength we draw from each other.
Professor Alex Haslam, one of the most respected social psychologists in the world, explained it very clearly to me: “Resilience only happens in and to groups.” We therefore shouldn’t be telling teenagers to be resilient, we should be helping them to feel connected and supported.
If anyone is in any doubt of this, there was some compelling evidence drawn from a study of teenagers during the pandemic. Professor Jean Twenge is one of the most highly regarded academics studying teenage behaviour, and the data she captured about the changes brought about by covid lockdowns confounded her.
Cast your mind back - if you can bear it - to the early weeks of breadmaking, jigsaw puzzles and queueing outside Tesco for a four pack of Andrex in March 2020. Twenge was astonished by what she witnessed among teenagers at that early stage. “We had expected mental health to be awful during the pandemic,” Twenge said in an interview, “but we really didn’t find that – we found that teens were relatively okay.”
Levels of teenage depression actually declined, and resilience went up. What were the causes? There were two factors: social connection and sleep. Two-thirds of the teenagers Twenge surveyed said they had become closer to their families during that period of forced isolation. Some 54 per cent of teenagers said their families now ate dinner together more often, and teens who spent more time with their families during the pandemic, and who felt their families had grown closer, were less likely to be depressed, and more likely to demonstrate resilience. Twenge concluded: “It appears that one of the primary foundations for teen resilience during the pandemic [was] family support and connection.”
Certainly when we look at other groups that demonstrate resilience - and the people of Ukraine spring immediately to mind - it is this sense of a tightly bonded group that gives them the fortitude that they hadn’t believed themselves capable of. Resilience isn’t some magic superpower that some of us have, it is the strength we draw from each other.
As for sleep, it’s estimated that teenagers require between nine and 10 hours of sleep a night. The recent temptations of electronic stimulation have seen a decline in young people’s sleep that the pandemic helped to put right. In 2018, only 55 per cent of teens said they usually slept seven or more hours a night. During the pandemic, this jumped to 84 per cent. For teenagers, there’s more than some truth to the old adage that the best bridge between despair and hope is a good night’s sleep.
If any of us find ourselves hearing that young people lack the grit of previous generations it might be worth bearing these things in mind. Rather than telling teenagers to be resilient, it’s our duty to make them feel more connected and supported. That and letting them get that weekend lie in that they so desperately need. | https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/gcse-results-day-why-asking-070419114.html?src=rss | 2022-08-25T07:30:02Z | https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/gcse-results-day-why-asking-070419114.html?src=rss | false | 1 |
Liz Cheney Running in 2024 Would Help Donald Trump Beat Joe Biden, But There's 1 Catch
Rep. Liz Cheney has been teasing a 2024 presidential run ever since her crushing defeat in Wyoming’s Republican primary elections last week.
While Cheney has been very clear about her goal of preventing former President Donald Trump from gaining political office again, a presidential run could actually cut against that goal.
According to a survey of registered voters conducted by Yahoo News and YouGov, Cheney entering the presidential race could help Trump defeat President Joe Biden.
However, the one catch is that Cheney would need to run as an independent.
The poll found if an election were held today with Trump as the Republican nominee and Biden as the Democrat nominee, Biden would receive 42 percent of the vote. Trump would receive 39 percent of the vote, while 20 percent of voters said they would be undecided.
Yet when Cheney was added as an independent candidate in the poll, the numbers shifted dramatically.
In that scenario, just 29 percent of registered voters said they would vote for Biden. Thirty-seven percent said they would vote for Trump, giving him a comfortable lead of eight points and 11 percent said they would vote for Cheney. However, 23 percent of respondents were undecided.
The poll included responses from 1,563 American adults and had a margin of error of about 2.6 percent, Yahoo News said.
This shift would seem to confirm two hypotheses many Americans have already made. First, Democrats do not appear to be sold on the idea of Biden as the Democrat nominee in 2024.
Cheney is hardly on the far left, at least as far as her policies are concerned. Despite her constant criticism of Trump, she voted with him 93 percent of the time during her congressional career, Newsweek reported.
The fact that a candidate with a relatively conservative voting record was able to shift a good portion of the vote away from Biden suggests some Democrats are ready to support nearly any candidate in place of Biden, so long as that candidate shares in their hatred of Donald Trump.
The party breakdown of the Yahoo News/YouGov poll further supports this idea. With only Biden and Trump listed as candidates, 87 percent of Democrats said they would vote for Biden. Only six percent said they would vote for Trump, and seven percent said they were undecided.
But when Cheney was added as a third option, only 66 percent of Democrats said they would vote for Biden, and six percent said they would vote for Trump. Twelve percent of registered Democrats said they would vote for Cheney, and 16 percent were undecided, suggesting they would consider voting for Cheney instead of Biden.
The mere addition of Cheney as an option cuts Biden’s support among Democrats in a hypothetical 2024 race by a whopping 21 percent. If I were Biden, those numbers would greatly concern me.
Second, the poll seemed to show Cheney would not be able to shift very many Republican votes away from Trump. This is not surprising either, because she has spent most of the last two years discussing her hatred of Trump instead of her actual policy ideas.
When only Trump and Biden were presented as options in the poll, 85 percent of Republicans said they would vote for Trump, five percent would vote for Biden and 10 percent were undecided.
With Cheney as an option, 80 percent of Republicans said they would vote for Trump, three percent said Biden, seven percent said Cheney and 10 percent were undecided. While the addition of Cheney did cut Republican support of Trump by five percent, it was nowhere near the massive shift it caused among Democrats.
Given her conservative voting record and her hatred of Trump, Cheney is unlikely to garner enough support to win a nomination from either Republicans or Democrats. Running as an independent would seem to be her only legitimate path to advance to the general election, and that choice might just help her arch-enemy win the presidency.

Los Angeles-based fashion house ROSE IN GOOD FAITH debuted its first shoe, Plastic Soul, last month, in collaboration with American sex toy brand Doc Johnson, featuring unused or discarded sex toys.
ROSE IN GOOD FAITH and Doc Johnson spent 2 years developing a unique recycling system that grinds sex toys into millimeter-sized TPE cubes, which are then combined with EVA foam into the shape of (Injection Moulding) Plastic Soul. The Plastic Soul sockliner arches to relieve foot pressure, and the design also references the low-cut silhouette of hiking and running for effortless versatility. After the shoes appeared in all white, the brand then released the second color matching “Endless Black” for the shoes, which completed the design with minimalist all black.
The Plastic Soul “Endless Black”, limited to 500 pairs, will be available on the official website of ROSE IN GOOD FAITH on August 26, priced at $145. Interested readers may wish to pay more attention. | https://www.breakinglatest.news/entertainment/rose-in-good-faith-plastic-soul-limited-edition-endless-black-officially-appears/ | 2022-08-25T07:35:13Z | https://www.breakinglatest.news/entertainment/rose-in-good-faith-plastic-soul-limited-edition-endless-black-officially-appears/ | false | 1 |
“Watch out guys, there is a proposal for you from the Brothers of Italy, that is Giorgia Meloni“, explains Giuseppe Conte in a recent video posted on various social networks. The leader of the 5 Star Movement goes on to illustrate the proposal, contained in a document presented by FDI last April and entitled “Notes for a conservative program”.
In the proposal, explains Conte, “a artificial intelligence system which will track down the list of young people who finish high school or university each year. “This automatic system will send young people a job offer“it does not matter if precarious or underpaid”, to which – according to the former premier – “you will not be able to oppose a refusal, on pain of losing all benefits and even a fine. We are in full Orwellian style”, dramatically concludes the leader of the 5 Star Movement.
Indeed, in the document – that in the part on work it was edited by the founder and former national coordinator of the party, Guido Crosetto – we read (page 7): “An organized system, which does not exist today, must be built, which must form part of a active policy program based on an artificial intelligence system that when fully operational it traces the list of young people who finish high school and university every year and hooks them to companies in the sector, employment agencies and employment centers, activating a competitive system (…). The young person will no longer be able to choose whether to work or not, but is bound to accept the job offer for himself, for his family and for the country, under penalty of loss of all benefits with the application of a system of sanctions“.
Future
Studies on restricted AI and the unknowns of general AI
by Giuditta Mosca
However, the obligation to accept the job and the fines for those who refuse it are not the only problematic aspects of this proposal. Another element to be carefully evaluated concerns the fact that, in order to “hook young people to businesses”, the use of an artificial intelligence system is envisaged. Although this is a non-detailed proposal, it is easy to predict that such a system would also have the task of identifying the most suitable jobs for individual candidates, on the basis of their studies and previous experiences.
Using a sistema di machine learning, this task of identifying candidates could be done automatically, very quickly and effectively. Yet, in the recent past, artificial intelligence has repeatedly shown how risky it is to use it in delicate sectors such as job search, school assessment or even the provision of loans or mortgages (not to mention the algorithmic support to the police, which in fact the European Union could ban).
Interview
The future seen by Annalisa Barla, the teacher who teaches machine learning
by Emanuele Capone
For example, an algorithm employed by Polish employment agenciesintroduced in 2014 by the Warsaw government, had systematically penalized – as documented by the NGO Algorithm Watch – people with disabilities, single mothers, who came from rural areas and other categories as well. For what reason? In short, since machine learning systems all work on a statistical basis, the algorithm was limited to “noting” how certain categories had rarely been selected in the past to carry out certain professions, thus evaluating them negatively. The result is inevitable: the algorithm – which in fact the government then quickly withdrew – did nothing but discriminate those who are already usually discriminated againsthowever, hiding these critical issues behind the aura of “statistical objectivity”.
Stop the artificial intelligence that predicts crime from human faces
Carlo Lavalle
Many similar problems occurred in 2018, when it was discovered that the Amazon’s automatic recruitment system penalized womenand still two years ago, when the automatic school evaluation system introduced by the Ministry of Education British has systematically penalized the best students from schools in difficult neighborhoods. There would be many other cases to mention, but in general it is increasingly evident how artificial intelligence systems – precisely because of the mechanism linked to big data and statistical correlations which is their basis – instead of maximizing opportunities for all they tend to re-propose the same discriminatory mechanisms that have occurred in the past.
“This is how you control the masses.” The super power of the algorithm
Rosita Rijtano
But does the Brothers of Italy proposal present in the “Notes for a conservative program” also appear in the actual program, drawn up by the center-right in view of the September elections? Difficult to say, given that among the points relating to work we read only a vague “strengthening of active employment policies”. However, given the numerous failures made by artificial intelligences used in delicate areas, it would be important that the Brothers of Italy – and all the other political parties – pay more attention to the criticalities of these tools.

Learn what causes the phases of the moon by making moon models with two friends in this science project for kids: the moon.
Many people think that the moon's phases are caused by the shadow of the Earth moving across the face of the moon, but that isn't true. When the earth's shadow blots out the moon, we call this a lunar eclipse. To find out what really causes moon phases, do this simple demonstration with two friends.
What You'll Need:
- Two friends
- Flashlight
- Softball or similar-sized ball
Step 1: Decide which of you is taking what part in the models. One person, holding a flashlight and standing near a garage in the dark will be the sun. A second person, standing a few feet away, will be the Earth. The third person, the moon, will carry a softball "in orbit" around the Earth.
Step 2: Have the "moon" stand directly between the "Earth" and the "sun."
The "Earth" should see the unlit side of the moon. This is what happens when we see a new moon. We're seeing the "night side" of the moon.
Step 3: Ask the "moon" to move left of the "Earth." Now the Earth should see the sun side of the softball lit up and the other side in shadow. This represents a "first quarter" moon, which is really a half-moon.
Step 4: Have the "moon" stand in back of the "earth." Enough light should reach the softball to light up the whole side that faces the "Earth." This represents a full moon.
Step 5: Ask the "moon" to move to the right of the "Earth." Again, the "Earth" should see half the ball lit up and half in shadow. This represents the last quarter moon. Like the first quarter moon, this is really a half-moon.
Step 6: Track the actual moon for a month. This is easy to do when the moon is full, because it rises just after sundown, but after that, the moon rises and sets later. Do you ever see the moon in the day? Can you figure out why?

Biden's Energy Secretary: Poor People, Middle Class Can Beat Inflation by Buying Solar Panels
Inside President Joe Biden’s administration, it seems high-ranking staff members are playing a long-running game of “Hold My Beer” involving who can sound the most out-of-touch on matters of inflation.
While this could be traced back to the innumerable figures trotted out to tell us inflation would be “transitory” during the administration’s first year, that was some pretty low-stakes stuff. The first one to really up the ante was Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who told America in March that what they really needed to beat out-of-control gas prices was an electric car — something that costs, on average, over $56,000.
Since then, we’ve had some doozies. Biden himself has gotten in on the game, with the president calling high gas prices “Putin’s price hike,” claiming that inflation is “worse everywhere but here” (spoiler alert: it’s not) and then ludicrously asserting — when inflation went down slightly from 9.1 percent in June to 8.5 percent in July — that the United States experienced “zero percent inflation in the month of July.”
Senate Democrats have horned in on the action, as well; how else can you justify the fact they trolled the country by naming their tax-and-spend climate bill the “Inflation Reduction Act“?
The problem with playing “Hold My Beer,” however, is that there’s always someone else who wants you to hold their beer. Enter Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm — who, despite the fact “Fox News Sunday” airs in the ante meridiem hours in the United States, still came with a frosty, hopped adult beverage for you to carry.
The moment came as host Trace Gallagher was talking about the aforementioned Inflation Reduction Act, and the fact it contains subsidies for green energy items most Americans can’t afford right now — “tax breaks for adding solar panels, energy-efficient windows, heat pumps.”
He’d just played a clip of people reacting to a $7,500 tax credit for an electric car — who said that they couldn’t buy them anyway, thanks in part to the higher costs of these vehicles and higher prices in general. She was asked what she would say to people who couldn’t afford what Democrats were subsidizing.
Her answer seemed to boil down to the idea that you could afford it, thanks to the miracles of the Inflation Reduction Act.
“Number one, for your home, yes, there are significant incentives in this bill — which is great — to reduce people’s energy costs on a monthly basis,” she said.
“If you are low income, you can get your home entirely weatherized through the expansion from the bipartisan infrastructure laws, a significant expansion — you don’t have to pay for anything.”
Then came the real hold-my-beer moment: “If you are moderate income, today you can get 30 percent off the price of solar panels. Those solar panels can be financed, so you don’t have to have the big outlay at the front,” Granholm continued.
“If you don’t qualify for the weatherization program, you will be able to, starting next year, get rebates on the appliances and equipment that will help you reduce your monthly energy bill by up to 30 percent. This is all about reducing costs for people.”
Biden Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm: “If you are low-income, you can get your home entirely weatherized” to help deal with 40-year high inflation.

— RNC Research (@RNCResearch) August 21, 2022
Americans who can’t pay for gas, food and their mortgage are being told by Granholm that their lives will be made easier by paying for gas, food, their mortgage and solar panels because those solar panels are 30 percent off and can be financed. This is seriously their message — that paying 70 percent of something you can’t afford will allow you to afford it in the long run because it’ll cut your energy bill.
This may seem like a sick joke. Unfortunately, the joke’s on us.
Conservatives took to Twitter to lambast Granholm for her tone-deaf performance.
“Can’t afford food or gas, but this is great…” GOP Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas wrote.

— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) August 22, 2022
“GOP just needs to run ad after ad of Granholm telling the poors to buy solar panels and electric cars to save money,” said conservative radio host Erick Erickson.

“There is no denying the fact Democrats want Americans to suffer to achieve their nonsensical green utopia,” wrote Republican Rep. Chip Roy of Texas.

Of course, if the Biden administration was really serious about solving energy inflation, it would increase energy production at home through policies which encourage drilling for more oil and natural gas. But the administration isn’t serious about it beyond using it as cover to enact its agenda.
Consider that, as Americans continue to suffer high food and gas prices, Jennifer Granholm doesn’t talk about how she’s going to make the things you already buy cheaper. She wants you to buy more things — partially with government money — which will eventually pay for themselves somewhere down the road. (Sure, that may be 10 to 20 years for a solar power system, according to Investopedia — but why let facts get in the way?)
Sadly, it’s not like this game of “Hold My Beer” is going to end anytime. In fact, the only way I ever see it ending is when either a) Joe Biden is voted out of office or b) inflation makes everything so expensive that beer is considered too pricey for government procurement contracts.

Nail-Biting Video: Cop Flees Into Home After Being Attacked, Comes Back Out Then Unleashes Bloody Hell
An Alabama man has been charged with attempted murder after a vehicular assault upon a Decatur police officer — while the officer was off duty at home.
Gregory Martin Hill first faced a second-degree assault charge after Officer Jack Brown was attacked. The charge is now attempted murder, according to AL.com.
The incident, which was captured by a doorbell video camera, began when Brown went to investigate a vehicle that pulled up near his home, according to a post on the Decatur Police Department’s Facebook page.
WARNING: The following video contains graphic images that some viewers may find disturbing.
Hill, who was the driver of the vehicle, and Brown got into an argument that ended when Hill pulled away, striking a parked vehicle.
Then, things got weird.
Brown headed back to the driveway when he had to dodge out of the way of the Jeep, as seen in the video. The Jeep hit a tree instead.
Brown ran into the house. After a moment, Hill followed.
Hill returned to his Jeep when Brown emerged with a gun and his handcuffs.
Brown attempted to place Hill under arrest and ordered him to lie down on the ground. Hill refused.
“Hill got back into his vehicle, and Officer Brown attempted to get him out of the driver’s seat,’’ the police report of the incident said, according to AL.com.
“Instead, Hill drove directly into Officer Brown, who discharged his weapon into the Jeep numerous times,” the report said.
The gunshots are audible on the video, although the action moved out of camera range. None of the shots hit Hill.
Brown was pushed across his front yard. The vehicle then ran over Brown’s legs. Brown was taken to Huntsville Hospital on the night of the incident where he was later released.
When the driver got out of the vehicle, he was subdued by Brown and a neighbor who came to Brown’s assistance.
Morgan County Circuit Judge Charles Elliott set Hill’s bond at $1 million cash on Thursday, AL.com reported.
Police said Brown and Hill were not known to each other before the incident.
In a follow-up message on Facebook, the department said Brown “is walking and doing well. He and his family would like to thank everyone for their messages and prayers.”

ISLAMABAD (AP) — A Pakistani court on Thursday barred police from arresting former premier Imran Khan through the end of the month, officials said.
Imran Khan is accused of making verbal threats to police officers and a judge in his speech at a rally over the weekend. The latest development comes days after the government of Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif leveled terrorism charges against Khan, escalating political tensions and drawing nationwide condemnation from his Tehreek-e-Insaf party.
Earlier, Khan's lawyer Babar Awan requested the court to grant bail to Khan, who is the country's popular opposition leader. Arriving at court, Khan was asked to walk toward the courtroom as ordinary suspects do. The court agreed to extend Khan's protection from arrest until Sept. 1.
Hundreds of Khan's supporters gathered outside the court building, chanting slogans against Sharif's government. Demonstrators said Khan is being politically victimized by Sharif's government. Later, Khan left the court for his home on the outskirts of Islamabad.
Sharif replaced Khan in April when he was ousted in a no-confidence vote in Parliament. Legal experts say Khan could face from several months to 14 years in prison, the equivalent of a life sentence if he is found guilty by the court during the trial which has not started yet against him on the terrorism charges.
Thursday’s appearance of Khan before an anti-terrorism tribunal amid tight security was the latest development in the saga between Pakistan’s government and Khan, who has been holding mass rallies, seeking to return to power.
Khan is also to appear before the Islamabad High Court on Aug. 31 to face contempt proceedings on charges of threatening a judge. His conviction, in this case, will mean his disqualification from politics for life under Pakistani law. No convicted person can run for office.
It is the second time that Khan — a former cricket star turned Islamist politician — faces contempt charges. After elections in 1993, he was summoned but pardoned by the Supreme Court after describing the conduct of the judiciary as “shameful” and saying it did not ensure free and fair elections.
Legal experts say Khan has limited options and could avoid a conviction if he apologizes for his remarks against Judge Zeba Chaudhry, when he told her to “get ready for it, we will also take action against you.”
Since his ouster, Khan has alleged — without providing evidence — that Pakistan’s powerful military took part in a U.S. plot to oust him. Washington, the Pakistani military and the government of Khan’s successor, Shahbaz Sharif, have all denied the allegation.
Khan came to power promising to break the pattern of family rule in Pakistan. His opponents contend he was elected with help from the powerful military, which has ruled the country for half of its 75-year history. Since his ouster, Khan has also demanded early elections and vowed to oust Sharif’s government through “pressure from the people.” | https://www.ctinsider.com/news/article/Pakistani-ex-premier-Khan-appears-before-court-to-17396903.php | 2022-08-25T07:46:00Z | https://www.ctinsider.com/news/article/Pakistani-ex-premier-Khan-appears-before-court-to-17396903.php | true | 10 |
Neckers: Nightmare world invades place of presidents and poets
It looks increasingly likely that federal prosecutors will eventually charge former President Donald Trump with criminal behavior of some sort.
This wouldn’t surprise me; what stands out in my mind from the Trump years in politics are two especially gross incidents; the video clip in which he said that he could grab a woman’s private parts because he was famous; and his taking top secret government papers, possibly including our nation’s nuclear secrets to Mar-a-Lago after he left office.
There were many other incidents and allegations, including things that, if proven, were clearly against the law. But in my view, the real laws that were broken were the moral laws of the Old and New Testaments and virtually every other religious and ethical system known to man. These are the laws, that is, which distinguish a civilized high society from anarchy or dictatorship.
True, I don’t suppose it says anywhere in any of these codes that “thou shall not try and grab a woman unknown to you in her private parts,” or words to that effect. Nor does it say that “thou shalt not violate national security protocols without permission.” But common sense and basic morality should indicate to anyone that this, and so much else, is utterly unacceptable.
Yet there are always those who are uncivil, and who break common norms “just because they can,” and who assume for themselves privilege that they have never earned. Some things are against the law in virtually every country — murder, for example, or theft. Most western societies have moral codes based on the Ten Commandments — “thou shalt not commit adultery; thou shalt not covet,” etc.
Society — all societies — make laws for many reasons. Suppose life became a free-for-all with no boundaries? Or suppose our wise forefathers had not laid down a set of rules for us to live by? America would be a disheveled mess of people that might resemble a cartoon version of the Old West.
That is the nightmare world to which the terrorists want to lead us. The attack by a would-be assassin on author Salman Rushdie at Chautauqua Institution on Aug. 12 is another example of intentional international terrorism, in this case, justified on the basis of someone’s idea of a religious or moral directive.
There’s no denying that two Iranian ayatollahs pronounced a death sentence on the author, suggesting that their followers kill Salman Rushdie, in the name of religion, because they did not like what he had written. In effect, they anointed their followers with an oil of approval of recognized immoral actions.
On the other hand, Chautauqua Institution, the place Mr. Rushdie was stabbed, has been a beacon of intellectual light and morality for its entire existence, hosting top-level political and intellectual leaders since the 1870s.
President Ulysses. S. Grant, the Union general who won the Civil War, was at Chautauqua in 1875, its second year. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt spoke there in 1936. Think Roosevelt had no enemies? One would have had no farther drive than to the nearby town where I grew up to hear the stories about how much my grandfather hated Roosevelt. He closed the banks in 1933 and my grandfather, hardworking and hardnosed businessman that he was, lost a lot of money.
My family blamed FDR for that, and blamed Robert Jackson, his attorney general and close legal adviser. Winnie Lewellen, a Chautauqua hostess of world renown for many years, (and my childhood babysitter) used to regale her friends with stories about presidents, president’s wives, congressmen, and other persons of high political station. “Mother Superior,” as comedian Mark Russell called Chautauqua’s hostess, knew of security issues with her guests, but one would never know they existed from the way she and the institution behaved.
We live in a different world today. As Chautauqua prepares to address the events of Aug. 12, this grand institution needs to take care to not overreact and change the culture more than necessary. They face a delicate dance; freedom of expression is a must; but care, security, and safety are also musts.
But this must not involve the state imposing restrictions on the freedoms the private Chautauqua has enjoyed for its entire existence. Chautauqua offers for its communities all of the benefits of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, namely, freedom of speech. Parading armed guards, even if they are state police or county sheriffs, are still parading armed guards.
In my mind, the image of Chautauqua going from a place where, when I first went there, had only one policeman (usually a college student) guarding its amphitheater, to a place of parading armed guards smacks too much of what Germany in the 1930s.
Changes may be necessary, but as all we longtime Chautauquans know, changes should be subtle and careful. I urge the leadership, its board and its administration to tread carefully for the land at Chautauqua is hallowed ground, which has demonstrated its importance and moral fiber for more than a century.

Residents of the twin cities are infuriated with the HDMC, which has been procrastinating on forming of the panels which ensure citizen participation in local governance
HUBBALLI: The failure of the Hubballi-Dharwad Municipal Corporation (HDMC) Council to constitute ward committees — panels comprising citizens to oversee administration in the wards – has compelled a citizens’ forum to bring pressure to bear on both the corporators and officials to expedite the process.
Residents of the twin cities are infuriated with the HDMC, which has been procrastinating on forming of the panels which ensure citizen participation in local governance.
Activists of the Hubballi-Dharwad Nagarikara Ward Samithi Balaga have been mobilising support to push the civic agency to constitute these panels.
Efforts by this outfit appear to be bearing fruit, with the HDMC agreeing to table the issue for discussion at the general body meeting, to be held on Thursday.
Convener of the balaga, Lingaraj Dharwadshettar, said: “We launched this campaign a few months ago. The HDMC has finally taken cognisance of our initiative. The HDMC invited applications from the citizens, aspiring for membership in the ward committees thrice, and in its last attempt, 600 residents evinced interest. This number effectively means that fewer than 10 people in each ward have applied to be on the panel.”
Lingaraj said the forum wanted the HDMC to invite applications from the citizens again, given the poor response in the past. “The HDMC is delaying the formation of the committees even in those wards where more than five citizens have sought membership. We have met the mayor, deputy mayor, the HDMC commissioner, and 40 corporators, demanding that the ward panels be constituted at the earliest,” he said.
Lingaraj warned thayt the forum would protest if the issue was not tabled and discussed at the HDMC’s general body meeting.
HDMC commissioner B Gopal Krishna said a decision on the ward panels was likely to be taken at the general body meeting. “I have recommended the formation of panels in wards where we have received more than five applications.”
Each ward panel has 10 members, with the corporator at the head. Each committee has a member each from a SC and ST sections.

Jaipur: With tomato flu cases reported in some states, the state government has issued guidelines to its officials across the state to identify suspected cases of tomato flu in the state for early diagnosis, time treatment and preventing its spread in the state.
A senior health department official said, “We have sent our guidelines on tomato flu across the state and alerted the doctors on it. They have been asked to identify suspected cases of the flu.”
He said that they have received the guidelines from the Centre, which has been circulated across the state. The official said tomato flu is a self-limiting infectious disease as the signs and symptoms resolve after a few days.
The health officer said that tomato flu is a hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD), which occurs mainly in children under 10 years of age, but it can occur in adults too. Infants and young children are also prone to the infection through the use of diapers, touching unclean surfaces as well as putting things directly into the mouth.
HFMD is one of the many infections that result in mouth sores. However, healthcare providers can usually tell the difference between HFMD and other causes of mouth sores by considering the patient’s age, the symptoms reported by the patient or parent, and the appearance of the rash or sores.
He said that they have informed the doctors about the treatment of tomato flu, which is a viral infection. Its treatment includes isolation, rest, plenty of fluids and hot water sponge for relief of irritation and rashes. Supporting therapy of paracetamol for fever, body ache and other symptomatic treatments is required.
Tomato flu is a viral disease, and its main symptom is tomato-shaped blisters on several body parts. The blisters start as red-coloured small blisters and resemble tomatoes when they enlarge.
As with other viral infections, symptoms of tomato flu also include fatigue, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, fever, dehydration, swelling of joints, body aches and common influenza-like symptoms.

The “quickest, fastest, most powerful compact utility vehicle under $30,000” – this is how Dodge described the all-new Hornet when it released official information about it earlier this month. The American firm is especially proud of its first new model in a decade, though another member of the big Stellantis family is apparently not quite happy with the launch of the new product.
The Hornet is largely based on the Alfa Romeo Tonale and the two share many body, powertrain, suspension, and interior components. The crossover started as primarily an Alfa Romeo project and The Drive reports the Italian manufacturer isn’t happy with the fact that Dodge got nearly all the job done and simply had to put a new badge and different bumpers to launch the Hornet and undercut the Tonale's price.
Gallery: 2023 Dodge Hornet
“Dodge took advantage of the [Tonale] to make a compliance car – their Aston Martin Cygnet moment, if you will. Suffice it to say internal politics won the day, and Dodge needed to up their CAFE numbers, so Hornet was born,” a source within Stellantis told the publication “on condition of anonymity.”
While almost identical, the two crossovers are positioned in different spectrums of the compact crossover segment. In general, the Hornet should undercut the Tonale by around $10,000, which makes it even more difficult for Alfa Romeo to sell its new product in the United States. Some call the Tonale Alfa Romeo’s most important new model in years as the Italian company has big hopes it will perform better than the Giulia and Stelvio in North America.
However, with the very similar looking and significantly cheaper Dodge alternative, it seems that Alfa Romeo’s strategy could be in trouble, hence why the company is not really happy with the situation. Dodge, in turn, received nearly 14,000 preorders in just 24 hours after the crossover’s full debut.
Reader response in the comments section of our Dodge Hornet debut article, however, suggests many Dodge fans are not satisfied with the Hornet either. Sharing its platform and hardware with the Alfa Romeo Tonale, it seems some folks feel the American automaker didn't do enough to differentiate the Hornet from its Italian sibling.

Surat: For the first time in the history of Veer Narmad South Gujarat University (VNSGU), as many as 27,303 students were conferred with degrees at a special convocation held on Wednesday.
The university had started holding the special convocation in 2014 and since then around 5,000 students would normally apply for award of degrees on the occasion. The special convocation is held on August 24 to mark the birth anniversary of poet Narmad.
This year, however, the number of students applying for degrees became more than fivefold. Early announcement of the results, early re-examination and high overall pass percentage due to online exams — were some of the reasons behind the large number.
Now that so many students have been awarded degrees at the special convocation, the number of applicants for getting degrees is likely to drop when the regular convocation takes place on February 26.
A convocation in August helped those students who wanted to apply for higher studies and needed degrees or complete the formalities.
“Every year, more than 30,000 students apply for degrees in February. But this year, due to early results and issuance of marksheets, majority of students applied for degrees now,” said K N Chavda, vice-chancellor, VNSGU.
“We not only completed the exams and issued the results quickly but also completed re-assessment fast. We also held the re-exams immediately after the results for those who had failed and wanted to appear again,” said Chavda. VNSGU announced the re-examination results in a few days.
However, the medal distribution could not take place as the final verification of all the students is yet to be done. The medal distribution will be held at the regular convocation.
Minister of state for education Kuber Dindor was the chief the guest at the special convocation. Cabinet minister for education Jitu Vaghani addressed the event virtually. At the event, 35 students got PhD and 10 were awarded MPhil degrees.

Aug 25 (Reuters) - Elena Rybakina has sometimes been exasperated by her coach's intensity but the Wimbledon champion has indelible proof that Stefano Vukov is a man of his word.
Vukov has tattooed Rybakina's name and the date of this year's Wimbledon final on his right arm -- keeping up with the bet they made two years ago.
The pair made the bet during the Qatar Open in 2020 that if Rybakina won at Wimbledon, Vukov would have to get a tattoo of her name.
Moscow-born Rybakina pulled off the achievement this year, beating Ons Jabeur 3-6 6-2 6-2 in the final in July to become the first player from Kazakhstan to win a Grand Slam singles title.
"I already forgot (about the bet) – we were laughing around," Rybakina told The Guardian in an interview on Wednesday.
"Before the final, he told me that he would do it. So, he did it. For me, it's still crazy, I can't believe it. But it is what it is. We had a bet."
Rybakina, who has dropped to world number 25 despite her triumph at Wimbledon because ranking points were not on offer at the grasscourt major, is eager to add more major titles to her collection.
"It's never enough, I think. The goal is to win many more Grand Slams," Rybakina said. "For this year, my goal was to be top 10. Still it’s the same goal because I didn’t move in the ranking.
"It's just the last grand slam of this year, to try and get as far as I can," she said about the U.S. Open, which starts in New York on Monday.

Cal quarterback Jared Goff made easy work of Air Force on Tuesday in a 55-36 win in the Armed Forces Bowl, firing six touchdown passes in what might have been his final college game.
The Golden Bears' junior is considering whether to apply for early NFL draft eligibility. He said after the game that he intends to make a decision soon. On Tuesday, it looked as though there was little else for him to prove at the college level as he completed 25 of 37 passes for 467 yards without an interception. As he often does, Goff spread his completions to many different receivers -- nine Golden Bears caught at least one pass against the Falcons -- and his six touchdown passes tied a career high. Bryce Treggs led all receivers with 143 yards on four catches, while Kenny Lawler (5 for 75) caught three touchdown passes.
"He did what he's supposed to do," Cal coach Sonny Dykes told ESPN. "We thought we had some decent matchups, and he made some great decisions. ... He's had a great career, and I'm excited to see what he does in the future."
For the season, Goff finished 341 of 529 passing for 4,719 yards, 43 touchdowns and just 13 interceptions. The yardage and TD totals are Pac-12 single-season records.
Former Oakland Raiders scout Bruce Kebric recently said that he expects Goff to be a top-five pick in the first round of the draft, while another scout likened his skills to those of Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler. | https://www.nfl.com/news/cal-qb-goff-torches-air-force-for-6-tds-in-win-nfl-draft-next-0ap3000000612134 | 2022-08-25T08:07:35Z | https://www.nfl.com/news/cal-qb-goff-torches-air-force-for-6-tds-in-win-nfl-draft-next-0ap3000000612134 | true | 1 |
LAHORE:The Vice Chancellor University of Okara, Prof Dr M Wajid, called on the Chairman Punjab Higher Education Commission, Prof Dr Shahid Munir, and appraised him about the key developments of the university during his tenure. Dr Maqsood Ahmed, In-Charge Department of Statistics, was also present.
The PHEC Chairman applauded the VC's efforts regarding the signing of (Memorandums of Understanding) MoUs with various universities and advised the UO administration to effectively use these agreements by holding joint research ventures and international conferences.
He greatly appreciated Prof Wajid's first of its kind idea of developing international research consortiums through these MoUs. Prof Wajid told Prof Shahid that these consortiums would help in sharing of financial burdens for the arrangements of conferences, providing faculty exchange and students placement opportunities in world's top 200 universities. He said that for a conference, each member university would arrange the visit of a foreign scholar and this could mitigate the financial impact.

Microneedles promise easier, more efficient vaccine delivery
Painless, band-aid like, patches could be the next vaccine delivery method
LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - A new medical technology development called microneedles could change the way we receive vaccines.
The band-aid-like patch gets coated in the vaccine and is applied to the skin by pressing down firmly. It’s an “intradermal delivery method.” “Intra” means into, and “dermal” means the skin.
Texas Tech Professor, Harvinder Gill, said if we had these needles right now during the COVID-19 pandemic, we would not have had to stand in lines and wait for shots.
“So the reason intradermal injections are superior, as compared to, for example, subcutaneous or the muscles.” Gill said, “One reason is that it relies on the natural ability of the skin to be able to process the vaccine. And the reason is, if you think about the natural function of muscles, the muscles, the muscle cells are required for movement or lifting things.”
One of the major functions of the skin is defense. It has a rich supply of immune cells which can fight incoming infection. Your muscles have some amount of immune cells, but not nearly as many as your skin.
Gill said intradermal vaccine delivery is just as effective as penetrating the muscle while using 1/5 of the dosage. Your body will receive the same immune response and protection from a microneedle as you would from a normal needle.
“If you apply the 1/5 of the dose, administered intradermally to patients or people, you will be able to extend life or extend the usefulness of the vaccine because you can vaccinate now five times the people,” Gill said.
The microneedles are also more efficient. It takes little to no training to administer vaccines with microneedles.
“If you apply an intradermal injection, you need a very controlled technique to make sure that you are actually administering intradermally and not going deeper.” Gill said, “If you go deeper, then you are again going subcutaneous. So you have to be very careful to make sure you are shallow enough, and your technique is good.”
The technology has already been tested in humans with the flu vaccine.
Gill said the next step is for a company to take this treatment through the FDA approval process.
Right now, intradermal delivery is already being used with normal needles to treat monkeypox.
“The reason intradermal injections are superior, as compared to, for example, subcutaneous or the muscles,” Gill said. “One reason is that it relies on the natural ability of the skin to be able to process the vaccine.”
Applying vaccines with intradermal delivery allows your body to create a superior immune response.
Professor Gill, along with Research Assistant Professor, Akhilesh Shakya and Texas Tech students, Rohan Ingrole, Lazar Nesovic, and Ghanesh Kesav, are all working together to get a patent for the microneedles. They plan to use them for peanut allergies and a universal flu vaccine.

Cricket has evolved significantly in recent times. It hasn’t been long enough when T20 cricket walked into collective consciousness and changed the cricketing world.
Its success has led to more condensed versions including T10 and The Hundred.
Asia Cup 2022: A Look at India’s Dominant History at the Continental Tournament
Not content with the numerous formats that cricket already boasts of, a brand new 60-ball competition has been launched by the Cricket West Indies.
The tournament titled ‘6ixty’ will be yet another franchise league that will take place in the Caribbean. The inaugural edition of the spectacular event is scheduled from August 24 to 28, just before the onset of the Caribbean Premier League (CPL)
Here is everything you need to know about the brand new 6ixty tournament:
Format of the tournament
The rules of 6ixty cricket differs from T20 cricket. As the name implies, it is a 60-ball format or in simpler terms T10 cricket. The bowling team will bowl 30 balls from one end (first five overs) and 30 balls (next five overs) from the opposite end.
One bowler can bowl only a maximum of two overs.
The batting team will have two powerplays through the course of the innings. The batting side can activate another powerplay if they manage to smash two sixes in the first two overs of their innings.
The third powerplay can be activated between the third and the ninth over.
A new concept has been introduced called the ‘Mystery Fan Ball’ wherein a batsman will not be declared ‘out’ for a particular period of time. The initiation of this period during the innings will be determined by the voting of the fans.
A team will be deemed all out if they lose six wickets (and not 10 which is the case generally).
Teams of the tournament
A total of six teams will be featuring in the 6ixty tournament:
Barbados Royals (BR), Guyana Amazon Warriors (GMW), Jamaica Tallawahs (JT), St Lucia Kings (SLK), Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR), St Kitts and Nevis Patriots (SKN)

THE federal Treasurer Jim Chalmers will be told of the need for a new Albury-Wodonga hospital by Indi MP Helen Haines.
The Independent said on Thursday she would be meeting Mr Chalmers ahead of the government's first budget in October.

News of the appointment came as Dr Haines released a list of projects, based on feedback from North East councils, that she would like funded through the budget.
"Top of the pops here on the Border, of course, is our desperate need for a single-site world class hospital," Dr Haines said.
"That's a key element of this budget ask."
Dr Haines has previously raised the hospital with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Health Minister Mark Butler, who is yet to respond to her request asking him to visit the North East.
IN OTHER NEWS:
"I'm really tenacious about this and I think that we only achieve projects of this magnitude if we work together in a positive way and make our case with a really strong evidence base and we've got that," Dr Haines said.
Other works on the wish list are Baranduda Fields expansion, HotHouse Theatre revamp, Wangaratta airport upgrades and phone towers at Shelley and Burrowye.
"(The Treasurer) has been very clear in his messaging that he has a trillion dollars worth of debt to deal with, so I'm realistic, we're not going to see vast spending across the nation at this particular budget," Dr Haines noted.
Dr Haines will return to Canberra next Thursday to participate in the first day of the government's two day Jobs and Skills Summit.
She has been invited as a cross bench representative and will contribute a regional perspective with no sessions specifically addressing country concerns.
Dr Haines said she would like the government to consider extending a program introduced by its predecessor which saw HECS debt wiped for medical students who work outside large cities.
"We need to be looking at things like that for mental health workers, for nurses and allied health and for aged care nurses," she said.
Dr Haines also welcomed the terms of reference being set for a Royal Commission into the so-called robodebt scheme which saw welfare beneficiaries forced to pay back debts which were wrongly determined.
She noted one constituent with a disability suffered "emotional trauma" after being unfairly ordered to repay $8000.

"Qian Shi"[1], Baidu's industry-level superconducting quantum computer incorporates its hardware platform with Baidu's home-grown software stack[2]. On top of this infrastructure are numerous practical quantum applications, such as quantum algorithms used to design new materials for novel lithium batteries or simulate protein folding.
Qian Shi offers a stable and substantial quantum computing service to the public with high-fidelity 10 quantum bits (qubits) of power. In addition, Baidu has recently completed the design of a 36-qubit superconducting quantum chip with couplers, which demonstrates promising simulation results across key metrics.
As quantum computing continues to experience remarkable progress, a large number of enterprises are exploring how quantum computing will contribute to their real-world businesses. This has led to the development of "Liang Xi"[3], the world's first all-platform quantum hardware-software integration solution that offers versatile quantum services through private deployment, cloud services, and hardware access. Liang Xi is able to plug into Qian Shi and other third-party quantum computers, including a 10-qubit superconducting quantum device and a trapped ion quantum device developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Users can conveniently visit these quantum computational resources via mobile app, PC, and cloud.
"With Qian Shi and Liang Xi, users can create quantum algorithms and use quantum computing power without developing their own quantum hardware, control systems, or programming languages," said Dr. Runyao Duan, Director of the Institute for Quantum Computing at Baidu Research. "Baidu's innovations make it possible to access quantum computing anytime and anywhere, even via smartphone. Baidu's platform is also instantly compatible with a wide range of quantum chips, meaning 'plug-and-play' access is now a reality."
These latest innovations are backed by Baidu Research's Institute for Quantum Computing, whose technological footprint covers a wide range of areas, including quantum algorithms and applications, communications and networks, encryption and security, error correction, architecture, measurement and control, and chip design.

With painstaking attention to detail, John Kaldor’s latest project comes to life
By Nick Galvin
Gabriel Hurier is looking pretty tired – understandably so, after working for 34 days to create a startling new 300 square metre wall painting that is about to open to the public at the Art Gallery of NSW.
The piece, called Wall Drawing #955: loopy doopy and featuring sinuous curves in a dazzling combination of red and purple, is the work of the late US artist Sol LeWitt.
New York-based Hurier’s role as lead drafter has been to lead a small team in painting the massive piece according to LeWitt’s exacting instructions. A groundbreaking conceptual artist, LeWitt believed the art lay in the idea for the work.
Hurier has made well over 100 LeWitt works and the Sydney project is his sixth loopy doopy made following LeWitt’s diagram.
“These drawings are created basically by Sol taping two pencils together and drawing across gridded paper,” Hurier said.
Of course, despite the painstaking attention to detail Hurier and his assistants have brought to the project, it can never be a perfect execution of LeWitt’s wishes.
“It’s not a reproduction every time – it’s a realisation of the idea that is the artwork,” Hurier said.
The wall painting is only one aspect of a wider project, Sol LeWitt: Affinities and Resonances. It is the 37th iteration of philanthropist John Kaldor’s public art projects, which he famously began in 1968 when he invited artist Christo to “wrap” Sydney’s Little Bay.
Across the entrance hall of the art gallery is work by legendary desert artist Emily Kngwarreye. Twenty-five years ago, LeWitt encountered Kngwarreye’s work while visiting Australia and was influenced by her paintings for the rest of his career.
The third, final element of Kaldor’s latest project is a “sonic bridge” between Kngwarreye and LeWitt, made up of three separate musical works, each a collaboration between an Australian First Nations composer and an American counterpart.
American musician Chuck Johnson and Yuin musician JW [Josh] Paton have called their contribution Tangled Mirror Yarn.
They only met for the first time this week but have been collaborating for months, exchanging ideas and sound files between Oakland, California, and western Sydney.
“I was onboard with the project immediately,” Johnson said. “It sounded so good. Josh would process some files that I sent, and vice versa. And then we ended up coming up with not exactly a start to finish for the 40-minute piece but just like a rough idea of what sounds belonged where and the timeline.”
One of the ideas the pair has tried to encapsulate from the work is the sense of disorientation experienced by the team installing it.
“There are moments in the music, where we’re trying to emphasise that feeling of overwhelmed disorientation and distortion, as well as moments of relief, stepping back from that,” Johnson said.
Paton was particularly affected by the story of Kngwarreye’s influence on LeWitt.
“I didn’t know about Sol and his affinity for Emily’s work and it was nice to hear that actually happened,” he said. “People tell the story in different ways but the way I’m interpreting it is that he didn’t really see her as an Indigenous artist or othered into primitive arts or something. It was more like, ‘This is a peer’. I thought that was really powerful.”

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

Huawei and Partners Install World's First AI Filtering System for Salmon in a Natural River in Norway
An automated filter system can identify and filter out invasive Pacific salmon to prevent them from overwhelming and wiping out Norway's wild Atlantic salmon.
OSLO, Norway, Aug. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Huawei and local partner Berlevåg Jeger-og Fiskerforening (BJFF) have successfully deployed an AI-powered filtering system in Norway's Storelva River that allows Atlantic salmon to pass upstream and filters Pacific salmon – an invasive species – into a holding tank.
Pacific salmon – also known as humpback salmon – were introduced into Russia's White Sea in the 1950s. Quickly making their way down Norway's coast, they began wreaking havoc on the local ecosystem. Alongside introducing new diseases, the invader's rapid reproduction cycle and aggressive competition for food threatens to overwhelm Atlantic salmon in hundreds of rivers along Norway's coastline.
In June 2022 under Huawei's TECH4ALL initiative, Huawei and BJFF deployed the filtering system to prevent Pacific salmon from entering the upstream channel of Norway's river system. A mechanical gate allows local Atlantic salmon and Arctic red-spotted salmon to continue upstream to complete their migratory spawning process. The invasive species is diverted to a holding tank for subsequent removal.
"This is a unique innovation, both in Norway and globally. With this high-tech solution, we have complete control of the river. Local river managers and local and central administrations along the coast have also shown great interest in the project," said BJFF President Geir Kristiansen.
The demand for a solution was urgent, and one shared by the community, government departments, regulators, river owners, and the aquaculture industry – wild Atlantic salmon are an integral part of Norway's identity, culture, and economy. In recent years, however, the number of Pacific salmon caught in Norway's rivers by sports anglers has skyrocketed. In 2019, 13,900 were caught, jumping to a record-breaking 111,700 in 2021 – 57% of all salmon caught in Norway. While almost all were in Troms and Finnmark, Pacific salmon catches have been recorded in every county.
In contrast, numbers of the native wild salmon have declined by a quarter from peak levels. The invasive species is largely responsible, with escaped and less genetically diverse farmed salmon exacerbating the problem by weakening the Atlantic salmon's genome after interbreeding.
"Norway's wild salmon are threatened by other species, including humpback salmon and escaped farmed salmon. The monitoring system using AI is helping to stop this and enable future-proof river management," said BJFF Administrator Tor Schulstad.
The data collected can also reveal accurate patterns of migratory behavior, monitor different types of fish populations, provide information for further research, and help develop measures to stop overfishing.
"Installing a diversion system in a turbulent river is an extremely challenging task. I was impressed with the efforts of our partners, BJFF, and the local community. Here, people aspire to prove the role that good management has in saving rivers from environmental disasters," said Vegard Kjenner, Technical Director at Huawei Norway.
As a world first, the solution had to be designed from scratch. In early 2021, algorithms were designed based on Huawei's machine vision technology to identify different fish species. Then in July 2021, Huawei and BJFF deployed a monitoring station equipped with an underwater camera in Storelva River. Providing a continuous video stream, the hardware coupled with the algorithm identifies Atlantic salmon with an accuracy of 91% and cuts manual labor requirements by 90%. Traditional methods are labor-intensive, relying on volunteers to stand in the river and identify Pacific salmon with the naked eye, mainly by the spots on their tails. This makes it hard to quantify the threat – many fish are missed and their sex is impossible to determine.
The next step is to deploy the solution in Norway's salmon farms to reduce the environmental harm caused by escaped farmed fish.

The statement that Isuzu is ‘with you for the long run’ is exactly the reason why ISUZU has become the overall leading brand in trucking for the past 10 years.
Trucks, especially ISUZU trucks, are forecast to have a first economic life before major overhaul of at least 10 years. It’s this long-term view that road transport operators have for parts and service support which has ensured the success of ISUZU in South Africa. And it is not just a high availability of parts and service in one location – it is the national footprint of 35 ISUZU truck dealers.
“Quality is not negotiable,” observes Craig Uren, Senior Vice President Revenue Generation Southern African Customs Union, of ISUZU Motors South Africa. Uren adds – “But the enemy of trucking is downtime and even the best truck can leave productive service if parts are not available. Trucking uptime is the result of many support factors coming together at ISUZU Motors South Africa and it all starts with an ISUZU truck range from which it is easy to select a truck model with the correct gross vehicle or gross combination mass (GVM or GCM).
Any truck operator will confirm that selecting the right truck for the task will in the long-term result in the lowest cents/kilometer (CPK). Vehicle section starts at the rear where a custom-built cargo body matches the payload and work to be done – it is not about one size fits all.
Uren comments – “Our consulting, vehicle selection, performance prediction and costing services are considerably enhanced by our association as full licensees of Truck Science TransSolve software. This enables ISUZU and our dealers to forecast trucking productivity with reasonable accuracy, a service that Isuzu fleet owners appreciate
Isuzu has also been an innovative leader with specialist models that reduce CPK while increasing productivity and safety. Comments Uren – “First-in-class has been the success of Automated Manual Transmissions (AMT) – with 21,000 AMT model units sold, this ISUZU technology is well accepted. Isuzu crew cabs are starting to become a common sight on our roads instead of people perched on top of the cargo – an increase in fleet safety. ISUZU niche models are doing exceptionally well – refuse compactors and 4X4 models.”
An impressive package of services is available to ISUZU fleets under the title of ISUZU Mobility. This provides Fixed Cost operating for individuals and companies – funding for maintenance, servicing and repairs is sourced from advanced payments for a period or kilometers travelled. For ISUZU trucks this is referred to as CPK – Cents Per Kilometer maintenance plan.
The first of its kind in South Africa, ISUZU Motors South Africa is now offering an innovative aftersales solution in the form of Variable Warranty plans. These are specifically tailored to fit the needs of short, medium, or long-haul operators and will enhance ISUZU truck customer experience.
ISUZU satisfies modern fleet management expectations with the most up to date telematics system. Telematics offers real-time fleet management and driver development – it is an essential component of driver training. Telematics is also leading evidence in any court action following a road incident and thus protects a driver against spurious claims.
The entire ISUZU range benefits from a telematics-ready truck and stolen vehicle recovery hardware installed at factory. This includes a panic button and driver ID tag reader already installed. Compatible with the MixTelematics fleet management system, it is also compatible with existing third-party fleet management systems at a small additional cost. The stolen vehicle recovery service ready – BEAME – has been installed for some years now.
“We are proud to offer ISUZU operators a complete suite of services,” says Craig Uren, Senior Vice President Revenue Generation Southern African Customs Union, of ISUZU Motors South Africa, and concludes: “ISUZU comes with a package of solutions – we look forward to partnerships with you for the long run.”

Ukraine chastises Pope for condemning murder of Russian journalist
Pope Francis was wrong to express regret for the death of Russian journalist and political figure Darya Dugina, Ukraine’s envoy to the Vatican has said. The diplomat claimed the woman was not an innocent victim, and her murder was orchestrated by “Russians.”
Dugina was killed on Sunday, when a bomb planted in her car exploded. The Pope condemned the incident, calling the woman “a poor girl” and lamenting that innocent people die on both sides during wars.
The Ukrainian diplomat, Andrey Yurash, called the remarks “disappointing” in a tweet on Wednesday, saying the “aggressor” and “victim” cannot be spoken about in “the same categories.”
He wrote that Dugina was not an innocent party, as she was an ideologue of “Russian Imperialism,” and went on to claim that she was killed by “Russians,” supposedly to rally domestic support for the military operation against Ukraine.
Today’s speech ofPope was disappointing& made me think about many things: can’t speak inSame categories aboutАggressor &Victim, Rapist and Raped; howPossible To Mention 1of ideologists of🇷🇺ImperialismAs innocent victim?She wasKilledBy russiansAsSacredVictim &isNowOn Shield ofWar pic.twitter.com/GvvM7zJDCa
— Andrii Yurash (@AndriiYurash) August 24, 2022
Dugina was the daughter of controversial Russian philosopher Aleksandr Dugin, whose works promote Russian exceptionalism, and who has been widely described in the Western media as a behind-the-scenes architect of Russian foreign policy. Darya shared some of his beliefs and was a vocal supporter of the Russian military action against Ukraine.
Russian investigators have identified a Ukrainian woman as the prime suspect in Dugina’s murder. According to the FSB security agency, she rented an apartment in the building where the victim lived and fled from Russia to Estonia right after the bombing. Moscow has accused Kiev of masterminding the killing, which Ukrainian officials have denied. | https://www.rt.com/russia/561512-kiev-blasts-pope-dugina/ | 2022-08-25T08:46:39Z | https://www.rt.com/russia/561512-kiev-blasts-pope-dugina/ | false | 1 |
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday demanded justice for Gujarat riots survivor Bilkis Bano and alleged that those giving hollow slogans like 'Beti Bachao' are "saving rapists".
The 11 convicts were released on August 15 under the Gujarat government's remission policy after serving 15 years in jail. "Those giving hollow slogans like 'Beti Bachao' are saving rapists," Gandhi said in a tweet in Hindi.
"Today, the question is about the respect and rights of the women of the country. Give justice to Bilkis Bano," the former Congress chief said.
Bilkis Bano was gangraped in Gujarat's Randhikpur village and seven members of her family, including her three-year-old daughter, killed on March 3, 2002 in the Gujarat riots that broke out after the Godhra train burning. She was 21 years old and five months pregnant at the time.
The convicts walked out of the Godhra sub-jail on August 15 after the Gujarat government allowed their release under its remission policy.
A special CBI court in Mumbai on January 21, 2008, sentenced the 11 to life imprisonment on charges of gangrape and murder. Their conviction was later upheld by the Bombay High Court and the Supreme Court.

The proportion of top grades among the GCSE results for 16-year-olds in England has fallen since last year, with the overall pass rate also down, after pupils whose education has been disrupted by the pandemic sat the first examinations in three years.
Top grades of 7 and above – equivalent to A and A* – were down three percentage points this summer, in line with government plans to tackle grade inflation over the last two years, and bring results gradually down to pre-pandemic levels.
The proportion of pupils achieving grade 4 and above – 4 is a pass – also fell by four percentage points, from 79% last year to 75%, meaning thousands more pupils could now face resits in English and maths.
Girls continued to outperform boys – nearly one in three entries by girls in England got a grade 7 or above (30.7%) – though the gender gap at the highest grades narrowed by 1.6 percentage points compared with last year.
Figures published by England’s exams regulator Ofqual, meanwhile, showed that 2,193 16-year-olds in England got grade 9 in all their subjects – including 13 students who completed 12 GCSEs.
The fall in top grades – 7s, 8s and 9s – is not as sharp as last week’s A-level results, which saw greater grade inflation during the pandemic. At A-level, results awarded in England, Wales and Northern Ireland revealed top grades down by 8.4 percentage points on last year’s record results, while A*s alone decreased by 4.5 points.
As with A-levels, the GCSE decline was anticipated after Ofqual announced that grades this summer would be pitched midpoint between 2019 and 2021, with a full return to pre-pandemic grades next summer.
The chief regulator, Jo Saxton, said: “Students collecting GCSE results today can be so proud of their achievements – a testament to their hard work and resilience over the past 2 years.
“As with A-level results, today’s GCSE results are higher overall than those of 2019, and – as we have always said – lower than in 2021, when there was a different method of assessment. It makes sense to compare this year’s results with those of 2019 when exams were last sat.”
The results come after two years of unprecedented disruption in schools due to the Covid pandemic, when schools closed, learning moved online and exams were cancelled and replaced with teacher assessment. Even once schools reopened, the disruption continued with large groups of children being sent home after contact with the virus and high levels of teacher absence.
This summer’s exams therefore included a number of adaptations intended to take into account lost learning due to the pandemic, including less content or fewer topics in some some GCSEs and lower grade boundaries.
Passes in maths and English are critical for pupils seeking to progress. In maths, 24.9% of grades were below 4, up from 22.1% last year, though this is still down on 2019 when it was 28.5%. Likewise, in English, 22.2% of grades were 3 and below, two percentage points higher than the last two years.
In Wales close to 70% of results were C grade or higher. Some 69.7% of entries by 16-year-olds got at least a C, compared with 63.8% in 2019, the last time formal exams were taken in Wales.
Jeremy Miles, the Wales minister for education, said: “I welcome these results as we transition back to exams this year – it’s great to see what our learners have achieved.
“Don’t be too disappointed and don’t be too hard on yourself if things didn’t quite go to plan today. There are a range of options available to you, whether you’re unsure what to do next, or perhaps you didn’t sit your exams.”
Geoff Barton, the general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders said: “The fact that grades are generally lower this year compared to last year has nothing to do with the performance of pupils but reflects the decision by the government and Ofqual to move grading standards back to the 2019 standard in two stages, with this year representing a midpoint between 2019 and 2021.
“The government and Ofqual will now need to decide whether to put mitigations in place for next year. The strong indication we are hearing from school and college leaders is that this must happen because next year’s cohort will have also been heavily impacted by Covid.”
The most popular subject in terms of entries was science double award, with a total of 904,012 UK entries, up 0.9% on 2021, and maths remains the second most popular. Business studies saw the biggest percentage rise in entries of any major subject, jumping by 4.6%.
While pupils in England, Wales and Northern Ireland all take GCSEs, the devolution of education to each country’s governments has seen the course content, grading and methods of assessment diverge substantially, making any UK-wide comparisons difficult.
Traditional A*-G grades are used in Northern Ireland and Wales, while in England these have been replaced in with a 9-1 system, where nine is the highest. In Scotland, where pupils received their exam results on 9 August, the pass rate at National 5 level fell to 80.8%, down from 85.8% in 2021.
About 7,000 students across England may not receive their BTec level 2 results as planned on Thursday. The examination board Pearson said it was attempting to provide any missing results as soon as possible. It comes after Pearson apologised last Thursday for BTec level 3 students not receiving their grades as planned on the day A-level and T-level exam results were released, throwing university places into doubt.
Kath Thomas, the interim chief executive officer of the Joint Council for Qualifications, said: “As planned – and as with last week’s A level results – these results are higher than the last set of summer exams in 2019, but lower than last year’s teacher-assessed grades. This reflects the special arrangements that were put in place to support students, schools and colleges through another challenging year due to Covid.” | https://www.theguardian.com/education/2022/aug/25/gcse-results-show-fall-in-top-grades-and-pass-rate-in-england | 2022-08-25T08:48:56Z | https://www.theguardian.com/education/2022/aug/25/gcse-results-show-fall-in-top-grades-and-pass-rate-in-england | true | 1 |

NASSAU, BAHAMAS — A Supreme Court justice has set bail at $15,000 for a 20-year-old heavy operator accused of impregnating a 13-year-old girl.
Supreme Court Justice Deborah Fraser also set bail conditions for Jakyle Barry to wear an ankle monitor, and report weekly to a police station.
Barry, 20, was arraigned in Magistrate’s Court last week on 11 counts of unlawful sexual intercourse stemming from an alleged sexual relationship with a young girl that started in August 2021 when she was 12 years old and continued until July 2022.
He was reportedly arrested after it was discovered the 13-year-old girl was six months pregnant.
Barry was remanded to prison following his arraignment on August 15 and subsequently filed a bail application to the Supreme Court.
He was represented by Ian Cargill at the Supreme Court hearing on Tuesday. | https://ewnews.com/heavy-duty-operator-accused-of-impregnating-13-year-old-granted-15k-bail?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=heavy-duty-operator-accused-of-impregnating-13-year-old-granted-15k-bail | 2022-08-25T08:55:37Z | https://ewnews.com/heavy-duty-operator-accused-of-impregnating-13-year-old-granted-15k-bail?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=heavy-duty-operator-accused-of-impregnating-13-year-old-granted-15k-bail | false | null |

CORSAIR (NASDAQ: CRSR), a world leader in enthusiast components for gamers, creators, and PC builders, today revealed the new XENEON FLEX 45WQHD240 OLED Gaming Monitor, a flagship bendable gaming monitor created in close partnership with LG Display. (Graphic: Business Wire)
From fully flat for strategy or productivity applications, to an immersive 800R curve for simulations and shooter games, and anywhere in between, users can adjust the display to match their content in seconds. Combined with cutting edge gaming panel performance, the XENEON FLEX OLED is a true game changer for performance gaming monitors.
XENEON FLEX OLED's 45in screen and 3,440x1440 resolution (21:9 aspect ratio), offers a stunning cinematic display experience that's ideally suited whether you're gaming, working or enjoying a movie. This combination of screen size and aspect ratio results in 20% more screen area than a 49in 32:9 ultrawide and 81% more screen area than a 34in 21:9 ultrawide. Finished with a specially formulated anti-reflective coating to reduce glare and reflections, XENEON FLEX OLED is built from the ground up to be an immersive gaming monitor, equipped with LG Display's protective Low Blue Light technology to help reduce eye strain even when viewed all day.
With LG W-OLED latest display technology, XENEON FLEX 's self-lit OLED pixels deliver peak brightness up to 1000nit, with a 1,350,000:1 contrast ratio ensuring that images are as true to life and accurate as possible. A rapid 0.03ms GtG response time, 0.01ms Pixel on/off time and up to 240Hz refresh rate all-but eliminate motion blur, creating a no-compromise gaming experience that's fully compatible with both NVIDIA G-SYNC and AMD FreeSync Premium adaptive sync standards.
To help protect the display, XENEON FLEX OLED boasts a sophisticated burn-in prevention system which operates when both powered on, and when switched off, to ensure a flawless image even after extended UI or OS use, all backed by a three-year Zero Burn in and Zero Dead Pixel Warranty.
"We challenged ourselves to create a game-changing display that delivers an incredible and customizable experience, and I think we've achieved that goal and more," Said Dennis Jackson, Senior Director of Systems Product Management Marketing and CORSAIR. "With the help of LG Display, XENEON OLED FLEX is the beginning of a whole new class of gaming monitor, with the performance and literal flexibility to exceed the needs of even the most discerning gamers."
"CORSAIR is a fantastic partner with which to bring flexible W-OLED displays to gamers," said Mina Lee, Gaming Strategy Marketing Team Leader at LG Display. "We can't wait to put this new class of gaming display in the hands of PC enthusiasts."
Availability
The XENEON FLEX 45WQHD240 OLED Gaming Monitor will be demonstrated live at Gamescom 2022 this week, with further details of launch, availability and final specifications coming later in 2022.
