House Of The Dragon Already Got Renewed For Season 2 After Just 1 Episode
But, like, is anyone surprised?
The House of the Dragon isn’t in danger of falling anytime soon. After the Game of Thrones prequel wowed audiences with its fiery premiere on Aug. 21, HBO wasted no time in renewing House of the Dragon for a second season. The network officially picked up Season 2 on Aug. 26, less than a week after the show’s first episode aired. The extremely early renewal was not really a surprise, since the HOTD premiere made history as HBO’s largest premiere audience ever, with 10 million people tuning in and another 10 million streaming it after four days. FYI, the Game of Thrones finale raked in 19.3 million viewers, so those numbers are pretty amazing. With HOTD thriving and a Season 2 in the works, here are the predicted release date, cast, and updates.
Although a second season is in the bag, you’ll likely have to sit tight on your throne a while before it hits HBO screens. Season 1 won’t wrap up its ten-episode run until Oct. 23, so it’s still very early to know much about the upcoming second season. And HBO will definitely be taking its sweet time as each episode of HOTD reportedly costs around $20 million to produce, according to Variety. The premise of the prequel is based on George R.R. Martin’s 2018 book Fire & Blood set 200 years prior to Game of Thrones. The series dives into the drama in House Targaryen when the white-haired dragon-riders were at their most powerful. But although they ruled Westeros, their internal battles threatened to tear the family apart.
There’s so much anticipation and talk around the second season, here’s what we are expecting.
House of the Dragon Season 2’s Predicted Release Date
Looking back at Season 1’s production timeline, from receiving the green light in October 2019 to the start of filming in April 2021 and the series premiering in August 2022, it’s been nearly three years. Of course, lockdown delays throughout 2020 are a big reason for filming being pushed off, but it’s still likely that production on such a massive show will take a bit longer than normal. So it’s safe to say that Season 2 won’t be released for at least another year, if not more.
House of the Dragon Season 2’s Predicted Cast
If you’ve read the book, you’ll know there are more than a few dramatic downfalls that lead to the main characters perishing. Hopefully, the series isn’t going in that direction yet. You’ll likely still see the lead cast members Matt Smith as Daemon Targaryen, Emma D’Arcy as Princess Rhaenyra, and Olivia Cooke as Alicent Hightower in Season 2.
House of the Dragon Season 2’s Predicted Story
The storyline of Season 2 depends on how many more seasons the show is expected to run for. The Hollywood Reporter said, “sources say the show’s civil war arc might be shorter than you might expect,” and the series is currently proposed to run for “about three or four seasons.” However, it “might not mark the end of the show.”
Spoiler alert: If you haven’t read Fire & Blood, the following includes spoilers.
As for the Targaryen story, Season 2 will likely follow the civil war that breaks out after King Viserys’ death, as half-siblings Rhaenyra and Aegon II fight for the throne. Oh, Aegon II is Alicent’s son, by the way, whom she has with King Viserys. It’s unclear just how deep into Rhaenyra and Alicent’s bitter feud will go, but their legendary conflict will definitely be a central element in Season 2.
Hopefully, HBO will be kind enough to give fans more details about the future of HOTD as the first season gets closer to its end. Keep your eyes peeled, because the dragons are only just starting to take flight. | https://www.elitedaily.com/entertainment/house-of-the-dragon-season-2-release-date-cast-trailer-updates | 2022-08-27T22:01:21Z | https://www.elitedaily.com/entertainment/house-of-the-dragon-season-2-release-date-cast-trailer-updates | false | 1 |
Stinking piles of garbage on the streets of Edinburgh are threatening the health and safety of the public, a health authority warned Saturday as strikes by garbage collectors in the Scottish capital moved into their ninth day.
The warning from Public Health Scotland came as garbage collectors in Newham, a borough of London, also walked out for a week over a pay dispute.
Images of food waste and diapers rotting on the streets is just adding to scenes of chaos in UK as industrial disputes multiply amid soaring food and energy costs. Bathers in the UK were warned last week to stay away from dozens of beaches as heavy rain flushed raw sewage into rivers and seas.
Public Health Scotland told local authorities that the “decontamination of public areas where bins have overflowed may be required.” It warned that “if organic waste builds up, it can become a risk to human health.”
Garbage collectors walked out on Aug 18 and plan to stay off work until Aug 30. Even more strikes lay ahead if the pay dispute is not resolved.
Britain is facing a massive cost-of-living crisis, with wage increases failing to keep up with inflation, which last week stood at 10.1%. Those financial challenges have only been increased due to soaring energy costs — authorities say residents in Britain will see an 80% increase in their annual energy bills in October.
The country has seen waves of strikes this summer, with the public transport system grinding to a virtual halt on several days due to rail strikes. Primary schools and nurseries in Glasgow, Scotland’s biggest city, will be forced to close for several days next month if a strike from council workers goes ahead.
In London, garbage drivers in Newham Council began a week of walkouts on Saturday, with union officials warning there could be more. Sharon Graham, general secretary of the Unite union, said those workers were paid less than others in neighboring councils.
“The council must now focus on reaching a deal with the workers, who face a financial crisis,” Graham said. “If they don’t, then the coming days will undoubtedly mean more industrial action.”
Britain’s image has taken a battering this summer. French lawmakers in the European Parliament complained this week that the raw sewage flushed into rivers and seas by the UK also threatens bathing waters, fishing grounds and biodiversity in the European Union as well.
Parts of Britain’s sewage system became overwhelmed after several days of unseasonably heavy rainfall.

LULU GARCIA-NAVARRO, HOST:
After his defeat in health care, President Trump this past week switched focus and returned to one of his signature campaign issues, immigration. He threw his support to a bill that would sharply cut immigration numbers and changed the requirements for people legally migrating to the U.S. Right now U.S. immigration favors bringing in people with family ties. The proposed new system would favor English-speaking immigrants with more skills. The bill has a lot of opposition, including among conservatives. Joining us in the studio now is Alfonso Aguilar, executive director of the Latino Partnership for Conservative Principles. Good morning.
ALFONSO AGUILAR: Good morning. Happy to be with you.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: So what are your thoughts on the bill?
AGUILAR: Well, it's bad legislation. I mean, immigration is is what America is all about. I think that in the past, we've seen Republicans who oppose immigration reform opposing illegal immigration but saying that they support legal immigration. This is about reducing the levels of of legal immigration in the country. And, frankly, immigration is good for the country. It helps promote economic growth and create jobs for Americans. Immigrants are taking jobs that Americans don't want or for which there are no Americans of working age. So it's important to fill those jobs - jobs that are necessary to fill to, as I've said, create jobs for Americans.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: Do you think this targets Latino immigrants, as has been suggested, and are you concerned about the message it sends?
AGUILAR: Well, I think, in a way, it does because it's saying we want to bring now only people who are educated. English is a consideration. It would be a consideration for granting an immigrant visa and permanent residency. So, basically, you're discriminating against people from poor countries like Latin America. President Trump has said that he wants to move away from the low income, as he calls - low skill, as he calls it - immigration system. But the truth is that, as I've said before, those so-called low-skill jobs are very important. And we need to fill them to grow the economy and to grow better-paying jobs for American workers.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: I'd like to talk briefly about the dreamers. One of the issues that people who favor a more open immigration policy really care about is their right to stay. Do you think this administration will kick out these people who are brought to the U.S. illegally as children as a way to move this agenda forward?
AGUILAR: I don't think so. And this is what's very interesting - that even though we're talking about reducing the levels of legal immigration, there is some glimmer of hope. And that's with dreamers. The president hasn't rescinded DACA, which is the executive order that President Obama put in place to provide some relief to those who entered the country legally when they were minors. He said that he cares about dreamers, that it's an issue that he struggles with - so DACA still in place. And he said that he wants to find a solution.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: Some suggest that he could use it as a negotiating chip to get the permanent changes to immigration law that he wants. Do you think that's a possibility?
AGUILAR: Well, right now there is no support in Congress among the Republicans, conservatives to reduce the levels of legal immigration. I think there would be support for a DREAM Act. Legislation has been introduced by Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina, along with Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois. It's a bipartisan bill. And it will provide relief, legal status to dreamers.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: I have a question for you. Earlier this year, you publicly said that you supported some of the president's positions on immigration, including, for example, the White House's move to target sanctuary cities.
AGUILAR: Right.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: But a lot has happened. How are you feeling about President Trump's stand on immigration now?
AGUILAR: Well, look. I said that my position is nuanced. I believe immigration is good for the country. There are aspects of President Trump's immigration proposals that I agree with. I do believe in fencing. It does work. It has shown that it works to disrupt illegal entry.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: You mean the wall, the proposed wall.
AGUILAR: Correct - fencing. And I believe that, in terms of targeting sanctuary cities, I think law enforcement - local law enforcement should refer to federal authorities people who they detain, undocumented immigrants who have criminal record. So I support that. At the same time, I do believe that we need to find a way to deal constructively with undocumented immigrants, the majority of whom pose no threat to our communities. And right now the Republican Party seems to be stuck, not willing to deal constructively with undocumented immigrants. And that's the key. So I'm hopeful that, you know, if we secure the border, we remove undocumented immigrants who have criminal records - that, eventually, Congress could deal in a more humane, constructive way with undocumented immigrants.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: Just very briefly, do you think that this bill is a nonstarter?
AGUILAR: I think so. I think it's not going anywhere. I think he did it to please his base, to energize his base. But, frankly, it goes nowhere.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: Alfonso Aguilar is the executive director of the Latino Partnership for Conservative Principles. Thank you very much.
AGUILAR: Thank you. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR. | https://www.kucb.org/2017-08-06/a-conservative-latino-on-immigration-policy | 2022-08-27T22:07:46Z | https://www.kucb.org/2017-08-06/a-conservative-latino-on-immigration-policy | true | 3 |
Kim Kardashian is showing off her curves and her edgy sense of style as she enjoys a car spin.
The billionaire mogul, 41, continues to make headlines for dropping new SKIMS merch and for enjoying single life again following her split from Pete Davidson, and she definitely seemed to be having fun in a video uploaded to her social media ahead of the weekend.
The clothing designer and reality star filmed herself ditching the icy blonde hair and back to brunette in a curve show posted to her Instagram stories, one offering little context, but definitely packed with the “Kim” effect.
Footage showed the mom of four enjoying a car ride and filming herself a little from below.
The ex to Kanye West showed off her curves and hints of her slimmed-down figure in a plunging and unzipped black top, one taking on a slight swimsuit finish.
Kim wore a full, but still light face of makeup, also showing off her plump pout.
Kim Kardashian single…and ready to mingle?
Earlier this month, Kim ended a nine-month relationship with former SNL star Pete Davidson, this in the wake of her 2021 divorce from rapper Kanye West. While the couple is no more, sources close to Kim are claiming that she’s ready to date someone else.
“Kim has plenty of options. All of her friends are constantly trying to set her up,” insiders at E! News state. “Kim’s expressed she’s ready to date someone older but it has to be the right person who understands her life. She isn’t compromising her freedom right now. She enjoys dating and is definitely open to putting herself out there again.”
Despite being super busy with her multiple businesses and four kids, Kim did make a massive gesture towards Pete shortly before the couple split – she jetted out to Australia while Pete filmed his Wizards movie.
Kim Kardashian is business as usual
Kim continues her iron grip on the retail space, continuing to run both her SKIMS and SKKN by Kim brands. Back in June, she mentioned skincare and Pete all in one sentence, telling Today:
“I’ve learned so much about skin care, actually, from him. He’s really into skin care. That’s, like, our thing. We go to dermatologists and facials,

Tea Party Patriots Action Files Ethics Complaint Seeking Removal of Judge Who Approved Trump Raid
Tea Party Patriots Action has filed an ethics complaint against federal Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart, who approved the warrant allowing the FBI to raid former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in Palm Beach, Florida, this month.
The complaint — filed with the Judicial Council for the 11th Circuit — alleges that Reinhart has a bias against the 45th president and therefore should have recused himself from the case.
“Judge Reinhart has a conflict of interest and a pattern and history of hostility to President Trump,” the document says.
The complaint lists multiple issues that prove Reinhart’s anti-Trump bias, according to TPPA.
They include social media posts by Reinhart, the judge’s recusal in another case involving Trump and Hillary Clinton in which he cited a “conflict of interest,” and past campaign contributions to former President Barack Obama.
The TPPA complaint contains an article from The Daily Wire, which included Reinart’s response to a 2017 tweet from Trump regarding the late Democratic Rep. John Lewis of Georgia, who had announced he would not be attending Trump’s inauguration.
Lewis said the Republican was not the legitimate president due to alleged Russian interference in the election.
“Congressman John Lewis should spend more time on fixing and helping his district, which is in horrible shape and falling apart (not to mention crime infested) rather than falsely complaining about the election results. All talk, talk, talk — no action or results. Sad,” Trump tweeted at the time.
According to The Daily Wire, Reinhart wrote in a Facebook post regarding Trump’s tweet, “I generally ignore the President-elect’s tweets, but not this one. John Lewis arguably has done more to ‘make America great’ than any living citizen.”
“Thank you, Robert Reich, for saying what many of us feel, ‘John Lewis is the conscience of America. Donald Trump doesn’t have the moral stature to kiss John Lewis’s feet,’” Reinhart wrote. “Or, as Joseph Welch said to Joseph McCarthy, ‘At long last, have you left no sense of decency?’”
Concerning past donations, Reinhart gave $1,000 to Obama’s campaign and $1,000 to the Obama Victory Fund supporting his candidacy in 2008, according to Open Secrets.
TPPA’s complaint also points to Reinhart’s connection to Jeffrey Epstein.
“Judge Reinhart has a history of ethical issues, the most noteworthy being his resignation from the U.S. Attorney’s office in Miami on Jan. 1, 2008, and the very next day representing as counsel for employees of the late Jeffrey Epstein, who was under investigation by that same prosecutor’s office at the time of Reinhart’s employment and departure,” the filing says.
An ethics complaint was filed against Reinhart at the time in which “former colleagues at the US Attorney’s office stated their belief that Judge Reinhart was privy to confidential information regarding the prosecution’s case against Epstein,” according to TPPA.
The TPPA complaint concludes, “Judge Reinhart should be disciplined and removed as a federal magistrate because of his failure to meet the standards of ethical conduct and character necessary for the public to have confidence in the nonpartisan role of a judge in a matter of this extreme public interest.”
In a Wednesday news release, Jenny Beth Martin, honorary chairman of TPPA, said, “Judge Reinhart acted unethically in approving the warrant to search President Trump’s residence.”
.@JennyBethM: “Judge Reinhart acted unethically in approving the warrant to search President Trump’s residence…The entire episode…threatens the principle of ‘equal justice under law’ and the confidence of the American people in an unbiased judiciary.”https://t.co/CEHaML1YHu
— Tea Party Patriots (@TPPatriots) August 24, 2022
“Judge Reinhart is a Democrat who donated to former President Obama. The judge publicly denigrated former President Trump in social media posts. Just two months ago, he recused himself from a lawsuit involving President Trump in his suit against Hillary Clinton, citing a ‘conflict of interest,’” she added.
“The entire episode involving the search of former President Trump’s home threatens the principle of ‘equal justice under law’ and the confidence of the American people in an unbiased judiciary,” Martin said.

Liverpool earned their first win of the season in stunning fashion after equalling the record for the biggest ever Premier League victory with a 9-0 thrashing of newly promoted Bournemouth at Anfield on Saturday.
Two goals inside the opening six minutes from Luis Diaz and Harvey Elliot put the hosts into a commanding position from the off.
A stunning strike from England full-back Trent Alexander Arnold which arrowed into the top corner gave Liverpool a three-goal lead in the 28th minute before Roberto Firmino got in on the act with a fourth three minutes later.
Not done there, Liverpool had a fifth before the interval, with Virgil van Dijk heading home from a corner, before Chris Mepham's own goal had the visitors staring at the prospect of an embarrassing drubbing.
A close-range finish from Firmino kept the goals coming, with substitute Fabio Carvalho's finish letting the home fans dream of a record-breaking afternoon.
Diaz's headed ninth strike came with Liverpool having five minutes to become the first side to score 10 in a Premier League match. But despite some late scares, Bournemouth did just enough to avoid suffering that ignominy. | https://www.onmanorama.com/sports/football/2022/08/27/premier-league-liverpool-crush-bournemouth-9-0.amp.html | 2022-08-27T22:20:30Z | https://www.onmanorama.com/sports/football/2022/08/27/premier-league-liverpool-crush-bournemouth-9-0.amp.html | true | 9 |

Burks is in uniform for Saturday's preseason finale against the Cardinals, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
As is veteran wideout Robert Woods, as it appears as though the duo may be poised to log some snaps Saturday. If so, they could be limited to abbreviated appearances, but it would nonetheless be a very positive development with regard to the composition of the Titans' receiving corps ahead of Week 1 action. | https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/football/news/titans-treylon-burks-in-uniform-saturday/ | 2022-08-27T22:26:30Z | https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/football/news/titans-treylon-burks-in-uniform-saturday/ | false | null |
KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Kneeling in a patch of yellow wildflowers, a Chechen soldier carefully attaches an explosive device to the bottom of a small drone. Seconds later, it is released. It explodes next to two old storefront mannequins set up 200 meters (yards) away, one with a Russian-style military hat on its head.
After this and other training outside the Ukrainian capital, the Chechen soldiers, in assorted camouflage footwear and protective gear, will be heading to the front lines in Ukraine, vowing to continue the fight against Russia that raged for years in their North Caucasus homeland.
Fighters from Chechnya, the war-scarred republic in southern Russia, are participating on both sides of the conflict in Ukraine.
Pro-Kyiv volunteers are loyal to Dzhokhar Dudayev, the late Chechen leader who headed the republic’s drive for independence from Russia. They form the “Dudayev Battalion” and are the sworn enemies of Chechen forces who back Russian President Vladimir Putin and joined Russia in the months-long siege of Ukraine’s key port of Mariupol and other flashpoints in eastern and southern Ukraine.
One group of new Chechen arrivals, many of whom live in Western Europe, was being trained at a makeshift firing range outside Kyiv before heading east. At a training session Saturday, the new recruits ‒ all Muslim men ‒ shouted “Allahu akbar!” (“God is great!”), holding their rifles in the air before being handed military ID cards that are issued to volunteers.
Ukrainian officials say the Chechen battalion currently numbers several hundred who fight alongside the country’s military but are not formally under the national command.
Instructors teach the new battalion members combat basics, including how to use a weapon, assume a firing position and how to work in teams. Trainers include veterans of wars in Chechnya that ended in 2009, some joining up in Ukraine after the fighting against Russia-backed separatists started in Ukraine in 2014.
Tor, a volunteer who asked only to be identified by his battlefield nickname, said he sees no difference between the two conflicts.
“People have to understand we don’t have a choice,” he said speaking in English and with his face covered. “If they (Russian forces) win this war, they will continue. They never stop. I don’t know. The Baltic countries will be next, or Georgia or Kazakhstan. Putin openly, absolutely, says he wants to rebuild the Soviet empire.”
Russia launched two wars to prevent Chechnya, a mostly Muslim province, from gaining independence after the 1991 collapse of the Soviet Union. The first conflict erupted in 1994.
The second Chechen war began in 1999 and culminated in a siege by Russian troops of Grozny, the Chechen capital, which was devastated by heavy Russian bombardment. After years of battling an insurgency, Russian officials declared the conflict in Chechnya over in 2017.
Muslim Madiev, a veteran fighter of the Chechen conflicts, identified himself as an adviser to the volunteer battalion in Ukraine. He joined the soldiers Saturday in shooting practice, taking aim at a plastic bottle held up on a stick. Bullet casings flew from his automatic rifle onto a field already littered with bullets, shotgun cartridges and cardboard target sheets.
“We’re going to win this war. The whole world is already standing up for us,” he says, speaking in Russian.
“We were the only ones who fought for ourselves (in Chechnya). No one stood with us. But now the whole world is behind Ukraine. We must win, we must win,” he declared. ___ Follow AP’s coverage of the war in Ukraine at https://apnews.com/hub/russia-ukraine | https://www.mytwintiers.com/news-cat/world-news/ap-international/ap-rival-chechen-fighters-take-war-to-battlefields-of-ukraine/ | 2022-08-27T22:37:02Z | https://www.mytwintiers.com/news-cat/world-news/ap-international/ap-rival-chechen-fighters-take-war-to-battlefields-of-ukraine/ | false | 23 |
Diana’s car auctioned as 25th anniversary of her death nears
LONDON (AP) — A car driven by Princess Diana in the 1980s sold for 650,000 pounds ($764,000) at auction Saturday, just days before the 25th anniversary of her death.
Silverstone Auctions said there was “fierce bidding” for the black Ford Escort RS Turbo before the sale closed. The U.K. buyer, whose name was not disclosed, paid a 12.5% buyer’s premium on top of the selling price, according to the classic car auction house.
Britain and Diana’s admirers worldwide are preparing to mark a quarter century since her death. She died in a high-speed car crash in Paris on Aug. 31, 1997.
Diana drove the Escort from 1985 to 1988. She was photographed with it outside boutique shops in Chelsea and restaurants in Kensington. She preferred to drive her own car, with a member of her security team in the passenger seat.
The RS Turbo Series 1 was typically manufactured in white, but she got it in black to be more discreet. Ford also added features for her security, such as a second rear-view mirror for the protection officer.
The car has just under 25,000 miles on it.
Last year, another Ford Escort that Diana used sold at auction for 52,000 pounds ($61,100).

🏐 No. 23 Kansas Sweeps Utah Valley in Season Opener
SALT LAKE CITY – No. 23 Kansas volleyball officially opened the 2022 season with a sweep of the Utah Valley Wolverines 3-0 (25-10, 25-14, 25-19) at the Jon M. Huntsman Center on August 26 in the opening match of the Utah Classic. The win marks the Jayhawks fourth consecutive sweep against UVU.

Set Three
As KU headed into set three leading 2-0, the excitement continued. The Jayhawks took an early 3-1 lead after the Wolverines recorded a service error. Utah Valley went on a. 3-2 run, but Dooley and redshirt freshman Ayah Elnady stopped the Wolverines to make the score 13-8.

EXPLAINER: Lower prescription prices to take time in new law
By AMANDA SEITZ
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — After decades of failed attempts, Democrats passed legislation that aims to rein in the soaring costs of drugs for some in the United States.
It will take years for people to realize some of the most significant savings promised in the climate and health care bill that President Joe Biden signed this month.
The bill mostly helps the roughly 49 million people who sign up for Medicare’s drug coverage. But many will be left out from direct savings after lawmakers stripped cost-savings measures for a majority of those covered by private health insurance.
A look at how some might benefit from the drug savings provisions in the “Inflation Reduction Act” and how drugmakers might push back on those efforts.
DRUG NEGOTIATIONS
For the first time, Medicare can negotiate the price of its costliest drugs.
In the U.S., “we’ve never had any entity that was negotiating on behalf of such a large group of people before,” said Leigh Purvis, the director of AARP’s health care costs and access.
That new bargaining power won’t kick in until 2025, when Medicare is able to haggle over the price of 10 drugs covered by its prescription plan. By 2029, Medicare will be able to negotiate the cost of as many as 60 drugs.
It will take some time because the Health and Human Services Department will need to develop a plan for selecting which drugs will be negotiated. The complicated rule-making process will take years to devise and face intense lobbying and scrutiny from the pharmaceutical industry, which is eager to carve out loopholes in the new rules.
“The biggest lift is definitely going to be negotiations because the secretary is establishing a whole new program, and they’re going to do a lot of hiring,” Purvis added.
The savings are expected to be huge. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates costs could fall by as much as $100 billion over the next decade.
Which drugs Medicare and patients will save on, however, remains a bit of a mystery.
In the first year, Medicare will be allowed to negotiate the cost of 10 drugs it spends the most money on, as long as those drugs have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for at least nine years and don’t have any rival generics on the market.
Right now, for example, the blood thinner Eliquis, used by 2.6 million Medicare recipients at a yearly cost of nearly $10 billion, would likely be at the top of that list.
That might spur pharmaceutical companies to launch new drugs at a higher price, knowing that the product’s cost will be negotiated down for Medicare, cautioned Arthur Wong, an analyst for S&P Global, a financial research firm.
PhRMA, the trade organization that represents pharmaceutical companies, acknowledged it intends to push back against the law.
“We are exploring every opportunity – including legislative, regulatory and legal — to make sure patients have access to the medicines they need and our industry can continue to develop lifesaving cures and treatments,” PhRMA spokesperson Brian Newell said in an emailed statement to The Associated Press.
___
A CAP ON OUT-OF-POCKET DRUG PRICES
The bill limits how much money Medicare recipients must use for medications but, again, it will take some time for those rules to take hold.
In 2024, Medicare will get rid of a 5% coinsurance required of patients who have met the catastrophic threshold, which is currently set at $7,050 for out-of-pocket costs for drugs. Nearly 3 million Medicare patients met that threshold at some point from 2015 to 2019, according to a study by the Kaiser Family Foundation.
The following year, out-of-pocket drug costs will be capped at $2,000 for Medicare Part D, which typically covers at-home prescription medications.
___
HOW WILL THE PRICE OF DRUGS BE CONTROLLED UNTIL THEN?
The Inflation Reduction Act has a series of controls aimed at immediately blunting the rising cost of drugs for Medicare. The bill caps copayments for insulin at $35 per month beginning in January, but for Medicare beneficiaries only. A $35-per-month limit on out-of-pocket costs for those on private health insurance was cut.
Starting next year, drug companies will also have to pay a rebate to Medicare if they raise the cost of a drug higher than the rate of inflation. The industry regularly raises the price of drugs above inflation yearly.
A similar rule exists in Medicaid, so the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid has experience running this program, said Rachel Sachs, a professor of law at Washington University in St. Louis.
“They’ve been helpful at controlling the rate of increase,” she said of the rebates.
Only Medicare patients will benefit directly from this. A move to include people on private insurance who are sold overpriced drugs in the calculation was scrubbed from the legislation.
Some health policy experts hope this provision, along with the others in the package, will help insurance companies negotiate the price of drugs for its customers, potentially extending cost-savings to millions of people.
But others are waiting to see if the bill has the opposite effect. Medicare makes up about one-third of the pharmaceutical industry’s market, meaning companies could try to draw more profits from elsewhere.
“That could be a threat that non-Medicare payers may end up having to pay more or at least face harder negotiations with the pharma industry,” said analyst Wong.

Two years ago, during the 2020 COVID-shortenend season, the Thompson Valley Eagles won only one game.
Last season, they pushed that win total to four. This season, the Eagles believe they can soar even higher.
With several key players returning and a junior quarterback with a year of experience, Thompson Valley has its sights set on a .500 or better record and a possible playoff appearance.
Numbers are up for a program on the rise and that has fifth-year head coach Chris Tedford very pleased. The team had not had as many players out as they would have liked in recent years.
That has changed dramatically this season.
“Our numbers are up so that we have more guys we can practice,” Tedford said. “We can actually practice both sides of the football. I am really excited about my young guys. We have a good group of young guys that are coming in, some freshmen. I am looking forward to that class really growing up. This will be the first time in about two years that we will be able to put a C team out. It will be really nice to have a young group compete and grow up.”
Tedford has high praise and expectations from some of his starters, most of which are on the offensive and defensive lines, as well as linebacker and receiver.
He said the first returner that comes to mind is senior offensive and defensive lineman Tucker McGinnis.
“Tucker anchors our offensive and defensive line and is going to be a four-year starter for us,” Tedford said. “He’s a great kid. He’s got a good GPA. If you could cookie cutter that kid, you’d make 1,000 of them, so I’m looking forward to him having a great year.”
McGinnis feels like the experience many underclassmen got last season will play a big part in how the Eagles do this season. Bonds formed with players who still have a few years left will also help.
“We feel good,” McGinnis said. “We played a lot of freshmen last year, so all those guys are experienced, so there are a lot of guys coming back. We had to start so many freshmen that with all those guys coming back, we have a lot of chemistry.”
Another four-year starter for the Eagles is linebacker/offensive lineman Ronan Bittner. Bittner led the team in tackles last season. Offensively, he moved from tight end to left tackle last year and Tedford feels blessed to have a kid who is not selfish and steps up to do something like that.
Bittner has been excited about how the team has been improving since practice began and he, along with the other seniors, have taken a leadership role this season.
“Every day we are getting better, and we are looking better,” Bittner said. “I can’t wait to get some competition and hit some other players. Last year, we had 24 kids and all those returning players just have the grit and strength and we’ve been showing all the younger kids what’s up.”
Senior offensive lineman and linebacker Aeden Gray also returns. With Gray and Bittner both playing inside linebacker, Tedford believes the Eagles will be solid in the middle of their defense.
Other returnees include sophomore offensive/defensive lineman Seth Kastl, senior receiver/defensive back Tommy Wood, senior receiver/defensive back Caden Neumiller and senior tight end/linebacker Owen Schuetz.
“Seth is doing some good stuff,” Tedford said. “We are expecting some big things from Tommy in the backfield and wide receiver. Caden had a solid year last year. What I like about Caden is that he is just solid. You get what you get from him. He runs good routes. He gets open. Defensively, same way. He is always there. You can count on him. Owen is another one of those solid guys. He has played three years.”
The final returnee Tedford speaks highly of us junior quarterback Riley Suarez. Suarez got his first taste of varsity action last year and plans to use that experience to be better this season.
“The first couple of games starting, I was a little nervous,” Suarez said. “Being 15 years old, it was tough. As the season went on, I got a little more confident. I didn’t doubt my reads, my throws. I knew I could play with the older guys as the season went on. I felt like I matched them or was even better than them athletically. As the season went on, it got a lot better for me.”
Tedford expects the strength of the team to come up front, which is also a good thing for Suarez on the offensive line. Suarez is a balanced quarterback who his head coach expects to be strong both running and passing the ball. Those passes will go to a wide receiver corps that Tedford also believes will be a strength of the team.
Sophomore Christian Chase and senior Matt Phillips will take a bulk of the snaps at running back as they try to replace Elijah Melendez, last year’s talented freshman running back who moved to Florida.
“Matt and Christian are doing a really good job running the football,” Tedford said. “I think in the long run, they might be better. They kind of fit some of the offensive things that we are trying to do. I think up front is going to be the biggest strength of our team and just being able to run the football, be balanced on offense and stop the run on defense.”
All factors considered, Tedford and his players anticipate another improved season as they look to increase their win total for a second straight season.
“I think back to my freshman year,” Wood said. “Everybody has been doubting us every single year, even our own classmates and it is kind of discouraging. But over the years, especially last year when we actually won a couple of games, it put some light into our classmates and even the staff at school started to believe in us. I think this year is going to be a big turnaround year not only for the school, but everyone is going to realize this year that Thompson Valley is not as bad as everyone thinks.”

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Three Dutch soldiers were shot and wounded early Saturday in a shooting in downtown Indianapolis after what local police believe was a disturbance outside the hotel where they were staying, authorities said.
The shooting occurred about 3:30 a.m. EDT in Indianapolis’ entertainment district. Indianapolis police said officers found three men with gunshot wounds and they were taken to area hospitals.
The Dutch defense ministry said one soldier was in critical condition and the two others were conscious, while Indianapolis police said two of the soldiers were in critical condition and the third was stable.
The ministry said the three soldiers were from the Commando Corps and were in Indiana for training when the shooting occurred during their free time in front of the hotel where they were staying.
Indianapolis police said they believe some sort of altercation between the three victims and another person or people led to the shooting.
The ministry said that the shooting victims’ families have been informed while Indianapolis police continue investigating the shooting.
No arrests have been made.
The Indiana National Guard said the soldiers had been training at the Muscatatuck Urban Training Center, a 1,000-acre (405-hectare) complex about 40 miles (65 kilometers) southeast of Indianapolis. The Guard said in a statement that the center is used for training by the Department of Defense “as well as other allies.”
“The Dutch soldiers visited Indianapolis at the end of their duty day. Our thoughts and prayers are with the soldiers and families during this difficult time,” the Guard said, WXIN-TV reported. | https://www.fourstateshomepage.com/news/national/ap-3-dutch-soldiers-shot-outside-hotel-in-indianapolis/ | 2022-08-27T23:20:01Z | https://www.fourstateshomepage.com/news/national/ap-3-dutch-soldiers-shot-outside-hotel-in-indianapolis/ | false | 23 |

Bond denied for Chicago man charged in deadly River North road rage stabbing
CHICAGO (CBS) -- The man charged with first degree murder in the River North road rage stabbing incident is being held without bail.
Prosecutors in court Saturday said this was a case of a simple traffic dispute turning into a brutal murder.
They said around 6:45 p.m. Tuesday both Alan Perez, 25, and the victim, 36-year-old Jeremy Walker, were driving on Dearborn toward Ohio.
The victim, Walker, was driving alone and following closely behind Perez, who had his wife and brother in the car. They said when the two cars came to a stop, the victim yelled insults at Perez, and then cut Perez off and Perez honked.
That's where the judge said the traffic dispute should have ended.
Prosecutors said instead Perez got out of his car with a knife, a tussle ensued, and Perez stabbed Walker in the neck. Perez did not call 911, but instead left Walker to suffer and die.
They say Perez got in his car and fled to Indiana before eventually turning himself in to police the next day.
The victim managed to get back into his car, drove himself to Michigan Avenue before flagging down police. He later died at the hospital. A family member of Perez was in bond court Saturday but did not want to speak.
CBS 2 spoke with the victim's girlfriend Jessica Evans earlier this week.
"They just took a really good man from us for no reason," she said. "To know him was to love him."
Perez's next court date is set for Aug. 30.

SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — A billboard seen in San Francisco appears to warn people against moving to Texas. The mysterious billboard located at the intersection of 7th Street and Folsom, reads “The Texas Miracle Died in Uvalde,” and is accompanied by a menacing-looking figure wearing a hood and sunglasses.
Along with with larger message the billboard also has the words “Don’t mess with Texas” crossed out and in the bottom right corner, reads “Don’t move to Texas.” No other information is seen on the billboard. According to a report in SFGate, the billboard at Folsom and 7th is leased to advertisers by FoxPoint Media.
While it’s not explicitly stated, the billboard appears to reference the Robb Elementary School shooting that happened in Uvalde, Texas, on May 24. Texas leaders have faced intense scrutiny over state gun laws since the tragedy that resulted in 21 fatalities, which includes the deaths of 19 children.
Texas is a “permitless carry” state. The practice is sometimes referred to as “constitutional carry” by proponents — the law allows anyone who can legally have a gun to do so without undergoing training or background checks. Per current Texas gun laws, you only need to be 18 to buy rifles and 21 to buy handguns.
According to posts from Reddit users in Los Angeles, the mysterious billboard has also popped up in Los Angeles.
Texas has seen an influx of people relocating from California in recent years. Several major tech companies including Tesla, Oracle and Hewlett Packard have moved their headquarters from the Bay Area to Texas.
KRON4 News reached out to FoxPoint Media for information regarding the billboard but has not heard back. | https://www.ktsm.com/news/texas/mysterious-billboard-warns-dont-move-to-texas/ | 2022-08-27T23:56:53Z | https://www.ktsm.com/news/texas/mysterious-billboard-warns-dont-move-to-texas/ | false | 23 |
NOBLESVILLE, Ind. — Rapper Wiz Khalifa cut short a concert in suburban Indianapolis as people began fleeing the outdoor venue, leaving three with minor injuries, following a disturbance, police said.
People started exiting the Ruoff Music Center in Noblesville about 10:30 p.m. Friday after a reported disturbance on part of the amphitheater’s lawn, with some of them shouting about a possible shooting, The Indianapolis Star reported.
Police said in a news release early Saturday that no weapon was found following a sweep of the area at the venue about 20 miles (32 kilometers) north of Indianapolis.
The disturbance happened about 45 minutes into Wiz Khalifa's show that was part of the Vinyl Verse co-headlining tour with fellow rapper Logic, according to The Indianapolis Star. The music stopped and Wiz Khalifa and his band left the stage immediately.
Three people reported minor injuries and were taken to hospitals for treatment after concertgoers “self-evacuated" the amphitheater, where all exits were opened in accordance with the venue's emergency procedures, police said.
In a parking lot outside, some audience members were making cellphone calls as others wept and held each other, the newspaper reported.
Live Nation, the concert promotion company that owns and operates Ruoff, released a statement Saturday thanking “staff and local authorities for acting quickly to support everyone in attendance.”
Police did not immediately reply to a message seeking details on the nature of the disturbance. | https://www.10tv.com/article/entertainment/music/disturbance-halts-wiz-khalifa-concert-in-indiana-3-injured-rapper/507-b21865de-640d-4dcb-b0bd-7b251008b802 | 2022-08-28T00:01:38Z | https://www.10tv.com/article/entertainment/music/disturbance-halts-wiz-khalifa-concert-in-indiana-3-injured-rapper/507-b21865de-640d-4dcb-b0bd-7b251008b802 | false | 25 |

(The Car Connection) — The average new car price is set to reach $46,259 by the end of August, eclipsing last month’s record and the one before that, according to the latest sales forecast from J.D. Power.
New car prices breaking records has become a broken record for car shoppers in the past year. The average transaction price customers paid for a new car was $45,844 last month, up from more than $41,000 a year ago. The automotive research firm and consultancy estimate the highest new car price on record was an increase of 11.5% from last year.
The usual suspects of the global microchip shortage and other supply constraints have resulted in demand still outstripping supply.
“This August, the industry is still constrained by insufficient inventory to meet robust consumer demand,” Thomas King, president of J.D. Power’s analytics and data division, said in a statement. “The result is a retail sales pace that fails to fulfill its potential.”
The estimated sales volume for the year for both retail and fleet customers is projected to be 13.3 million vehicles, down from the 17 million pre-pandemic highs. Fleet sales will be slightly higher this year than last year, while retail sales are projected to be a fraction lower.
The lack of volume is more than being made up for by high margins on more expensive models. Many automakers are either delaying base models or discontinuing entry-level grades in favor of better equipped and higher-priced models. Shoppers continue to buy higher-priced trucks and SUVs. Together, trucks and SUVs will account for more than 78% of new car sales in August.
Dealers continue to benefit with an average profit of $4,976 on each car sold. That’s down from $5,123 in June but still up $639 from last year and way higher than the pre-pandemic expectation that hovered around $2,000.
Car shoppers keep paying more. The increases come amid prevailing trade winds meant to tame inflation, such as higher car loan interest rates. But robust demand powers through the economic rationale, leading to the highest monthly loan payment on record of $716. That’s an increase of $78, or 12.2%, from a year ago, according to J.D. Power. The average interest rate for a new car loan spiked to 5.5%.
Typically around Labor Day, automakers push new model-year cars and dealers offer more incentives to clear lots of the outgoing model years. Incentives remain low.
On the upside, used car prices remain high and trade-in values offset some of the high costs of new vehicle ownership. Of course, the downside to that is deals on any car are hard to find. | https://whnt.com/automotive/new-car-buyers-paying-record-prices-taking-on-record-loan-payments/ | 2022-08-28T00:27:29Z | https://whnt.com/automotive/new-car-buyers-paying-record-prices-taking-on-record-loan-payments/ | false | 21 |

ATLANTA (AP) — Justin Thomas was a tap-in away from polishing off a 7-under 63. And then the horn sounded Saturday signaling a stop in play because of storms near the Tour Championship.
He had to wait until Sunday to not only finish, but to figure out where it left him in pursuit of the FedEx Cup and its $18 million prize.
Scottie Scheffler was still in the lead, barely. Xander Schauffele was still on his heels, even tying him ever so briefly. They were on the 13th hole and among 10 players who have to return Sunday morning for what could be a sprint toward a pile of cash.
Scheffler was at 19-under par, even par for the round on a hot, steamy day at East Lake with soft green and very little wind, always the recipe for low scoring.
Schauffele was 1 under for for a wild round of back-to-back birdies, back-to-back bogeys and back-to-back birdies during a six-hole stretch on the front nine.
The average score for the incomplete round was 67.
That's what Jon Rahm said he needed — another low round, and Scheffler to not have is best stuff. He got only the second part right. Rahm, coming off a 63, had four bogeys to go along with five birdies and wasn't making up much ground.
Those who didn't finish had to return at 9:45 a.m., and only then would the FedEx Cup finale have any clarity.
Sungjae Im was three shots behind at 16 under. Assuming Thomas makes his putt, he would be at 15 under. Rory McIlroy also was at 15 under, and he two holes to play, including the par-5 closing hole.
Rahm, Patrick Cantlay and Sepp Straka were at 14 under and still had to finish.
The third round was scheduled to finish an hour later, and then lightning in the area stopped play for an hour. And when the second batch of lightning arrived in the area, there was no chance to finish.
Hideki Matsuyama posted the low round of the day at 63, and he was still six shots behind.
Scheffler started Thursday at 10-under par and with a two-shot lead as the No. 1 seed in the FedEx Cup, with Cantlay two shots behind. Scheffler, already a four-time winner and a lock to be voted PGA Tour player of the year, opened with rounds of 65-66 and at times has threatened to turn the Tour Championship into a runaway.
He stalled Saturday, and all that did was expand the possibilities.
British Open champion Cameron Smith is a three-time winner and would have needed to win to make it a race for player of the year. He had a 68 and was 11 shots behind amid another round of reports that he is leaving for LIV Golf.
Those announcements are expected early next week. First up is a finish to a long and disruptive season with $18 million on the line for the winner.

Democrats are already spending big on advertising focused on abortion rights months before the midterm elections after the Supreme Court overturned the landmark Roe v. Wade decision earlier this year. And the Democrats’ victory in the special election Tuesday night in New York could further fuel their abortion messaging ahead of the November election. Some Republicans have now begun pushing back on this line of Democratic messaging.
Democrats have spent about $30 million on more than 100 television ads specifically mentioning abortion since the draft document of the Supreme Court decision in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization leaked in early May. That’s according to tracking by AdImpact.
Democrats have also spent nearly $7 million on Facebook ads that including abortion in the text. Both party committees, Super PACs and candidates have all been putting their money on abortion as an election issue.
Earlier this month, Kansas voters turned out in droves — general election-level numbers — to defeat an amendment removing the constitutional right to an abortion in the state – signaling that abortion rights was an issue that motivated Americans to show up at the polls, even in a conservative state in a summer primary. But questions remained over whether abortion rights would galvanize voters to turn out for candidates, and not just when the abortion itself is on the ballot.
In New York’s 19th District up in the Hudson Valley, Democratic candidate Pat Ryan made abortion rights a central part of his campaign in the special election, which was the final test case for a swing district before voters head to the polls in November. This week, he ended up defeating Republican Marc Molinaro by about two percentage points.
“This was really a referendum on freedom in America and we sent a loud and clear message here that when people try to take away rights and freedoms we have fought and worked and rallied to secure, Americans will stand up and say that is not who we are as a country,” Ryan told CBS News after his victory. He said he believes the momentum will continue.
Even before the 19th-District win – Democrats were dropping large sums of money on abortions ads, and in the days since that victory, the messaging has only intensified.
In one of the most competitive House races this cycle, Virginia Democratic Congresswoman Abigail Spanberger dropped a new ad on Friday going after her Republican opponent on abortion, claiming, among other things, that Yesli Vega supports a total abortion ban.
On Wednesday, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee announced a six-figure ad buy targeting Latino voters in battleground districts highlighting Republicans’ role in restricting abortion. It’s part of a seven-figure buy the House campaign arm has been rolling out specifically focused on the issue with voters of color. There have also been ads aimed at AAPI and Black voters.
The Democratic Senate campaign arm also anticipates abortion rights will play a major role in all of the Senate battleground races. An official pointed out it is a clear way to contrast candidates in the race.
On Friday, a group affiliated with the Democratic-led Senate Majority PAC started running its latest ad in North Carolina highlighting Republican Senate candidate Ted Budd’s past support for legislation banning abortion. The buy totals $750,000. Earlier this month, Senate Majority PAC began running other abortion related ads in North Carolina and Arizona.
In Texas, Democratic governor candidate Beto O’Rourke dropped two ads Thursday, his first for television, taking aim at incumbent Gov. Greg Abbott over abortion access in the state. They hit airwaves the same day as the Texas trigger abortion ban went into effect.
In the past week, Georgia governor candidate Stacey Abrams also launched a new TV ad attacking GOP governor Brian Kemp on abortion; Democratic Senator Catherine Cortez-Masto, who is up for reelection in Nevada, released an ad taking aim at her opponent, former Republican state Attorney General Adam Laxalt, using audio of him calling the Roe v. Wade decision a joke; and in Colorado, Senator Michael Bennet joined the growing crowd of Democrats running ads on abortion with the release of his own ad last week.
While Democrats have been spending tens of millions on abortion-related advertising, Republicans have spent just a fraction of that on the issue, neither touting the new Supreme Court conservative majority’s decision on Dobbs nor Republican action at the state level.
Republicans have spent just over $5.3 million on TV ads mentioning abortion since the Supreme Court draft decision on Roe v. Wade leaked in May. There has been less than $1 million spent on Facebook ads with abortion in the text. Part of that messaging has come from Republicans taking aim at fellow GOP candidates for not being conservative enough on abortion.
Heading into the general election season facing tough matchups, some Republicans appear to be dialing back their stances on abortion and others have kept their statements vague. But the pressure is mounting with several candidates feeling the need to directly respond to Democrats’ attacks.
In one of the more recent abortion-related ads released by a Republican, Washington Senate candidate Tiffany Smiley makes a direct appeal to camera after Democratic Senator Patty Murray released an ad slamming her over abortion.
Murray’s ad accuses Smiley of supporting the abortion ban in Texas and saying it would only take a single vote in Congress to “make abortion a crime.” In it a narrator says “oppose Tiffany Smiley before it’s too late.”
Smiley on Thursday released her own ad in response saying Murray has spent millions to paint her as an extremist.
“I’m pro-life, but I oppose a federal abortion ban,” Smiley says in it while looking into the camera. “Patty Murray wants to scare you, I want to serve you.” When Roe v. Wade was overturned, Smiley said it means people’s representatives will make the decisions on regulating abortion but she did not say what regulations she would like to see. She has, however, previously said she agrees with Texas’ near-total abortion ban.
On Thursday, Arizona Republican Senate candidate Blake Masters also went up with an ad on abortion – attempting to paint Democratic Senator Mark Kelly as the extreme one. Kelly had been running ads calling Masters too dangerous for Arizona.
“Look, I support a ban on very late-term and partial birth abortion, and most Americans agree with that,” Masters said. He has called the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision horrific and previously expressed support for a federal personhood amendment but has not been specific about a period of weeks after which abortion should be banned. NBC News first reported Thursday that his website was scrubbed of personhood law language.
Republicans are not just attempting to push back on abortion attacks in ads. While Cortez-Mastro is going after Laxalt in ads over abortion last week, he responded in a column meant to turn the tables. In it he reitrated abortion is settled law in Nevada. He also reconfirmed his support for a referendum further limiting abortion to 13 weeks in the state.
Recent polling has found abortion has grown in importance among issues Americans are looking at ahead of the midterms. The majority of Americans disapprove of Roe v. Wade being overturned and support abortion being legal in their states in all or most cases.

Crisps manufacturer Walkers has dispelled a widely-believed myth about its packets - although some people are taking a lot of convincing.
A Reddit post detailed how fans of the potato snacks are convinced that the company originally used green packets for its Cheese and Onion variety and blue for Salt and Vinegar, accusing the Leicester-based company of switching the colours in recent years. However, this week Walkers confirmed that it has never changed the packet colour for its Cheese and Onion crisps and pointed out that the doubters must be confusing its packets with those of rival producers.
Walkers told Express.co.uk that while other brands, including Golden Wonder, use green hues for cheese flavours, its Cheese and Onion has always been in blue packets, and Salt and Vinegar has always been in green packets.
The confirmation was greeted with doubt by some fans of the savoury snack, and some people even took to social media to admit that they had bought the green-coloured bags believing them to be Cheese and Onion treats and vice versa in the past. One man said on Twitter: "The amount of times I have picked up what I thought was Salt and Vinegar, only to be greeted with the awful cheese and onion flavour...sigh."
Another wrote: "We swore they used to be green and the switch happened around 1994, we used to joke about it because my mother's favourite is Cheese and Onion but she dislikes Salt and Vinegar." A third posted: "Mind blown by this."
Walkers has noticed the debate re-emerge so frequently that it has even put the question "Why did you switch the colours of Salt & Vinegar and Cheese & Onion flavour Walkers Crisps?" on the FAQ section of its website.
Its answer reads: "We’re often asked this! Our Salt & Vinegar and Cheese & Onion flavour crisps packs have always been the colours they are today. Contrary to popular belief, we’ve never swapped the colours around, not even temporarily. We’ve no plans to change these designs, as they’re signature to our brand."
Walkers introduced its Cheese and Onion flavour, inspired by the Ploughman's Lunch, in 1954. It was the firm's first flavoured variety of crisps. Golden Wonder and Smiths, another PepsiCo product, has always used green for cheese flavours. And KP Snacks' Hula Hoops and Pom-Bears also place their cheese treats in green packaging.

Workers at a Chipotle Mexican Grill in Lansing, Michigan, voted to unionize Thursday, becoming the first of the fast-casual chain's 3,000 locations to organize.
The workers at the Lansing Chipotle voted to form a union with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. In a release Thursday, the union said that workers are organizing "to improve their work schedules, increase wages, and gain the respect from management that they've rightfully earned."
The restaurant joins a wave of unionization efforts at workplaces across the country, including other food service locations like Starbucks, which has had more than 200 US locations unionize since its first victory in Buffalo, New York, last year.
"Chipotle pulled in revenue of $7.5 billion last year, and just as we're seeing workers of all ages and backgrounds across the country take on these corporate giants, it's so inspiring to see Chipotle workers stand up and demand more from a company that can clearly afford it," said Scott Quenneville, president of Teamsters Local 243.
In a statement, Chipotle said it offers its employees industry-leading benefits, such as competitive wages, debt-free degrees, health benefits and bonuses that last year totaled $37 million for its nearly 100,000 employees.
"We're disappointed that the employees at our Lansing, MI restaurant chose to have a third party speak on their behalf because we continue to believe that working directly together is best for our employees," Laurie Schalow, Chipotle's chief corporate affairs officer, said in a statement.
Chipotle permanently closed a restaurant in Augusta, Maine, that filed to form a union in June, saying it was unable to "adequately staff" that location. Union organizers claimed the chain was trying to stifle workers.
The Chipotle workers in Lansing filed for election with the National Labor Relations Board on July 5. Chipotle did not object to the filing.

SEATTLE (AP) — Julio Rodríguez was a few minutes late for his own party, the result of dealing with Seattle traffic that will part of his daily routine at home for likely the next decade — and potentially much longer.
When Rodríguez arrived Saturday to discuss his massive contract extension, several teammates and coaches who have embraced the 21-year-old in his debut season were seated in the back of the room.
“This is not about the contract and how long it is. I would love to be a Mariner for the rest of my career and playing for the Mariners fans,” Rodríguez said. “I’d love to be here for the rest of my career, play with a lot of these guys here and be managed by Scott (Servais), have Ty (France) as my baby sitter. I genuinely mean that. I love being here.”
Rodriguez signed the 26th contract in baseball for $200 million or more on Friday, ensuring a long-term future as a cornerstone for the Mariners. It’s a unique and complicated contract that could reach nearly $470 million and is befitting a burgeoning star with the talent and charisma to entice a region desperate for winning baseball.
It wasn’t lost on anyone in attendance that Rodriguez’s deal in Seattle almost never happened. Only a last-second effort when Rodriguez signed in July 2017 at age 16 landed him in Seattle when it seemed like the Angels were his destination.
“It feels very cool to just drive around the city and see (No.) 44 jerseys,” said Rodriguez, who hails from the Dominican Republic. “And it really touched my heart because as I said, I come from a place, Loma de Cabrera, 20,000 people, and there was more people in the stands yesterday than was in my hometown. So it feels pretty special to me.”
As much as the sides didn’t want Saturday’s event to focus on the contract, it is a unique deal. The first conversations happened in early July about whether Rodríguez would be interested in a deal that cemented his future in Seattle. The response from his representatives was that it had to be unique considering the player.
What started as a basic straightforward type contract and grew over the process of the conversations wasn’t finished until just before the official announcement on Friday night.
“We started with something that looked very basic and came out with something that looked like hieroglyphics,” Seattle president of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto said. “But again, the uniqueness of trying to capture what Julio has a chance to achieve in his career and to be fair with him about what that could look like in the end was a challenge.”
There wasn’t back and forth. It was a collaborative evolution of the deal that Seattle’s needs, Rodríguez's potential and created different points of flexibility.
But it is complicated.
At its most straight forward, the deal is a $209.3 million, 12-year contract starting next season. It could be worth $469.6 million over 17 years if he wins two MVP awards.
The contract includes seven seasons, a five-year player option, an eight-year club option with award escalators and the possibility the option could extend to 10 years.
Keep following.
If the club option is exercised, the deal would be worth $309.3 million for 12 years. If Rodríguez earns two MVP awards by 2028 or finishes among the top five in voting four times, the deal would boost to $469.6 million, including postseason award bonuses.
If Seattle turns down a one-time team option for 2030-37 — which must be exercised after the 2028 World Series — there is a mutual option that could be exercised after the 2029 Series calling for $168 million from 2030-36. There also is a player option that guarantees $90 million from 2030-34.
Get all that?
“The very first conversation set the tone,” Rodríguez's representative, Ulises Cabrera, said describing the development of the deal. “If we are going to look at this in the typical lens, that is not going to work. And so there’s going to be points probably in this conversation that what I say won’t make sense. And what you say won’t make sense, either. But we’re going to have to just be comfortable with that because, right now, we’re kind of starting something that we don’t have any blueprint to point to.”
The contract also includes a full no-trade clause. Some of the escalators tied to the deal and MVP voting were suggestions from Rodríguez's side, and betting on his continued upswing in production.
“There were a lot of pathways that helped us lead Julio to various stops along the way, and what could we do to recognize his potential at that (point),” Dipoto said. “And what we did was we focused on a variety of different contracts that had been done around the league and we stole from parts of those, and then we created something in that space, recognizing that no one’s ever really done this before.”

ATLANTA (AP) — Justin Thomas was a tap-in away from polishing off a 7-under 63. And then the horn sounded Saturday signaling a stop in play because of storms near the Tour Championship.
He had to wait until Sunday to not only finish, but to figure out where it left him in pursuit of the FedEx Cup and its $18 million prize.
Scottie Scheffler was still in the lead, barely. Xander Schauffele was still on his heels, even tying him ever so briefly. They were on the 13th hole and among 10 players who have to return Sunday morning for what could be a sprint toward a pile of cash.
Scheffler was at 19-under par, even par for the round on a hot, steamy day at East Lake with soft green and very little wind, always the recipe for low scoring.
Schauffele was 1 under for for a wild round of back-to-back birdies, back-to-back bogeys and back-to-back birdies during a six-hole stretch on the front nine.
The average score for the incomplete round was 67.
That’s what Jon Rahm said he needed — another low round, and Scheffler to not have is best stuff. He got only the second part right. Rahm, coming off a 63, had four bogeys to go along with five birdies and wasn’t making up much ground.
Those who didn’t finish had to return at 9:45 a.m., and only then would the FedEx Cup finale have any clarity.
Sungjae Im was three shots behind at 16 under. Assuming Thomas makes his putt, he would be at 15 under. Rory McIlroy also was at 15 under, and he two holes to play, including the par-5 closing hole.
Rahm, Patrick Cantlay and Sepp Straka were at 14 under and still had to finish.
The third round was scheduled to finish an hour later, and then lightning in the area stopped play for an hour. And when the second batch of lightning arrived in the area, there was no chance to finish.
Hideki Matsuyama posted the low round of the day at 63, and he was still six shots behind.
Scheffler started Thursday at 10-under par and with a two-shot lead as the No. 1 seed in the FedEx Cup, with Cantlay two shots behind. Scheffler, already a four-time winner and a lock to be voted PGA Tour player of the year, opened with rounds of 65-66 and at times has threatened to turn the Tour Championship into a runaway.
He stalled Saturday, and all that did was expand the possibilities.
British Open champion Cameron Smith is a three-time winner and would have needed to win to make it a race for player of the year. He had a 68 and was 11 shots behind amid another round of reports that he is leaving for LIV Golf.
Those announcements are expected early next week. First up is a finish to a long and disruptive season with $18 million on the line for the winner.

When Insecure debuted on HBO in 2016 Issa Rae and her best friend Molly were on the brink of 30. They navigated broken hearts, gentrification in Los Angeles, and workplace discrimination. Now, at the outset of Season 3, they're leaving their 20s behind and are still making mistakes — but with a little more confidence.
Yvonne Orji, who plays Molly, says viewers resonate with her character because she is "a beautiful mess." In fact, if things had gone a little differently for her in college, Orji says, "Molly is who I would have been."
Interview Highlights
On finding faith when she was in college
My faith has definitely been the guiding force in a lot of my life and a lot of my decisions. ... I went to a Bible study like two months into my freshman year and met this woman who referred to God as "Daddy" and I was like, What's wrong with her? She got daddy issues? Why is she calling God "Daddy"?
And there was something so pure and passionate about her relationship with God that caused that to not be weird for her. And I'm kind of competitive, but I always say ... I'm competitive in reverse. [Some] people are competitive for power – I was just like, I want to have a relationship with God like she does, whatever I have to do to get there ... that's what I want.
On abandoning her plan to become a doctor
I had plans: I was like, Yeah, I'm going to be a doctor. Don't know how. I didn't like organic chemistry or blood — but it sounds good.
And then God's like, Hey, what if I told you I had other plans? and I was like, Well, I guess this is one of those tests they talk about in the Bible, so, let's go! And I'm now currently living a life that I never imagined.
On her view that abstaining from sex can be empowering
Anytime you talk about virginity there's a lot of backlash for a lot of different reasons, right? ... People are like: That's not empowering to still be a virgin — because, you know, we don't tell guys to be virgins and so ... it's another way that the church holds women hostage. ... I don't get into that, because, for me, I'm like: Everything in life is a choice. So I always say: if you can look yourself in the mirror and you're happy with all the decisions that you make — then like, please, continue on.
On the saying she has tattooed on her wrist
[It] translates to: Nigerians don't finish second place. We don't finish last. ... Being Nigerian, that's what my parents taught me: You know, just this fearlessness, this resilience ... we don't fail.
On how her Nigerian parents reacted to her decision not to go to medical school
At the end of the day they just want you to succeed. They don't know that you can [succeed] in something that they are not privy to. A friend of mine who's spent more time in Nigeria than in America said: You know, it's not that your parents don't want you to do this entertainment thing. But you have handicapped their ability to be the best parents. Because if you told them you want to do engineering, they know Mrs. So-and-So's son is an engineer. They can call her. They can connect you two and he can give you instructions on what to do. He can help you find a job after you're done school. You have told them you want to be a "jester" -- which is what my mom called me when I said I want to do comedy — ... who can they go to to say: Can you help my daughter? If you fail it is a direct reflection of their failure. And it just put so many things in perspective for me.
On what she learned from her mom
My mom would say: You must be nice to everybody because you don't know if you're entertaining angels without your knowledge. And like, that's stuck with me. ... If you're good, then good will come back. And I was like, Mom, you taught me that and that seeped into my career. ... You did help me. You taught me resilience. ... you've helped me succeed in my "jestering" business.
On walking the red carpet with her mom
She came to the premiere. ... One of the special moments in my life was being able to fly my mom and my brother out here. My mom [got] to like walk the red carpet with me and just kind of see like this dream fulfilled. Because at the end of the day, everything I was doing was for the betterment of my family.
On what her mom thinks of the show, which can get a bit raunchy
I think the first time Molly cursed my mom looked at me and was like, I did not raise you to use such words. ... I was like, Mom, I don't curse in my real life. ...
Before any of the intimate scenes happen [in the show] she ... went back to Nigeria thankfully but then Insecure started playing in Nigeria and I was like, Aw, this is it! This is the end! But because we're such a heavily Christian country they edit out a lot of the intimate stuff. ... You know, God is good, he's always looking out.

LULU GARCIA-NAVARRO, HOST:
Steve Bannon has been mostly out of the picture since being fired by President Trump more than a year ago. But now he's back, and he has a new film.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "TRUMP @ WAR")
PETE HEGSETH: The left wants to undo our country. They want to take away the freedoms we have.
PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP: We have created 2.4 million new jobs.
HEGSETH: 2018 is a referendum as to whether or not a duly elected president is allowed to do his job.
SEBASTIAN GORKA: The president is unstoppable, but he's only one man.
TRUMP: You know, this is tough stuff. We're fighting a war.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: The film is called "Trump @ War." Jeremy Peters is a reporter for The New York Times who's covered Bannon for a while now. And he joins us while he's on the road. Welcome to the program.
JEREMY PETERS: Thank you for having me.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: So I have not seen "Trump @ War." I like the scoring there. It sounds like something out of "The Omen." You have, and it sounds dramatic.
PETERS: It is. I know - that music makes it sound like it's a Bruckheimer movie or something. But I think what Steve Bannon always understood well and part of the reason that he and Trump always saw eye to eye is they shared this belief that Trumpism (ph) and the people who subscribe to Trump's beliefs and the direction he wanted to take the country in were always going to be under siege. Now, I think a lot of that is exaggerated, but in the case of this midterm election - in this context, it certainly isn't because if the Democrats take the House, one thing that Steve Bannon is right about is Trumpism as we know it is under threat.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: Is this not just a propaganda film? I mean, even in the clip we just heard, there's an untruth about job creation under Trump.
PETERS: Steve Bannon is one of the more astute followers of propaganda that I think we've seen in modern American politics. And even he would not dispute the notion that this is a pure propaganda film.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: And Bannon has had a lot of success with these kinds of things. He had a film that he produced before the 2016 election called "Clinton Cash," and it propelled a narrative that made it into the mainstream media and is credited with helping Trump into the White House. And he's made, you know, other conservative documentaries, for lack of a better word. Is this one any different than those?
PETERS: I think the stakes are higher with this one. And certainly, this one will get if not more attention, as much attention as the ones did during the campaign. I mean, these were always films that were meant for a relatively small audience. As Bannon likes to say, the purpose of this project is to, quote, "jack up the deplorables," meaning that these people who love President Trump but who feel like they are looked down on by the liberals, by the media elites, as they like to say. This is really aimed at igniting their passions and driving them to the polls. Now, whether or not that ends up happening I think is a totally open question.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: How does this fit into the broader Republican strategy? Is the Republican establishment happy to see him and have his help?
PETERS: (Laughter) No, not at all. I think there was a sense of relief when Bannon was forced out of the White House and then left Breitbart under pressure that he wasn't going to be meddling in American politics anymore. His emergence back on the scene is not something that is at all a welcome sight to people like Mitch McConnell and the House Republican leadership because they think that he is going to alienate the very types of independent-minded, suburban voters, especially women, that this election may very well hinge on.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: Jeremy Peters is a reporter for The New York Times, and he covers Steve Bannon, among other things. Thank you so much.
PETERS: Thank you.

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — New York Yankees reliever Aroldis Chapman will be placed on the injured list after getting an infection in his leg from a recent tattoo.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — In the face of a major public backlash and internal questions over the decision to award Matt Araiza the punting job, the Buffalo Bills reversed course by cutting the rookie on Saturday, two days after a lawsuit was filed alleging the player and two college teammates gang-raped a teenager last fall.
"The last 48 hours have been very difficult for a lot of people. It’s been tough. And you know, we sympathize with this whole situation, all the parties involved, this young woman, what she went through," general manager Brandon Beane said during a 26-minute news conference alongside coach Sean McDermott.
"But at this time, we just think it’s the best move for everyone to move on from Matt and let him take care of this situation and focus on that. So, we’re gonna part ways there," Beane added.
Beane said the Bills were not aware of the allegations made against Araiza at the time they drafted him. And had they known, Beane said, they would have removed him from consideration.
The decision to cut ties with their sixth-round draft pick out of San Diego State comes after Buffalo cleared the way for Araiza to take over the punting duties by releasing returning veteran Matt Haack on Monday.
The Bills opted then to keep Araiza even while being aware of the allegations made against him since late July. The team then stood by the player by announcing it “conducted a thorough examination” into the matter a day after the lawsuit was filed.
Beane said the team did as much as it could in getting as many details as possible, while noting many of the allegations were unavailable because the results of the San Diego police investigation has not been released. He said the team decided not to “rush to judgment” based on the information it had, while noting Araiza never changed his version of what happened.
“You want to give everyone as much due process as you can. Again, we’re not a judge and a jury,” Beane said.
McDermott then interjected by saying the team did consider the victim's version of events as contained in the lawsuit.
“We did take those very seriously. I want everyone to understand that. That’s a serious deal right there,” McDermott said.
Araiza’s release begins to ease a crisis which has shaken the team as reflected by McDermott having difficulty containing his emotions while discussing the situation following a 21-0 preseason loss at Carolina on Friday night.
McDermott made the call to hold out Araiza from playing against Carolina. The player watched the game from an undisclosed location while also issuing a statement through his agent, Joe Linta, which read: “The facts of the incident are not what they are portrayed in the lawsuit or in the press. I look forward to quickly setting the record straight.”
Without another punter on the roster, third-string quarterback Matt Barkley handled the punting duties.
In a text to The Associated Press, Araiza's lawyer, Kerry Armstrong, defended his client by writing: “I am sure he is very upset and disappointed that his career with the Bills ended not because he played poorly, but because of false allegations leveled against him by a young lady and her attorney. I hope he is back in the NFL soon."
A lawsuit filed in San Diego County Superior Court accused Araiza and two teammates of raping a then-17-year-old girl at a Halloween party at an off-campus home where Araiza had been living. A San Diego police investigation has been turned over to the district attorney’s office to determine whether to pursue charges. DA spokeswoman Tanya Sierra said Friday there was no timeline as to how long a decision will take.
In Buffalo, the focus shifts to why the Bills weren’t aware of the allegations against Araiza when selecting the San Diego State player in the sixth round of the draft in April. Though he was college football’s top punter last year, and earned the nickname “Punt God” because of a booming left leg, Araiza was the third punter selected in the draft.
It’s unclear whether Araiza informed the NFL about the allegations in the months leading up to the draft.
Executives from two different teams told The Associated Press they became aware of Araiza’s involvement in an incident during the draft process, but neither person knew the extent of the allegations. Executives from three other teams said they had no knowledge of the allegations against Araiza before the draft and only learned of the incident Thursday. All the people spoke to The AP on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter.
Though it’s unclear when the Bills first became aware of the allegations, they knew by the end of July when Dan Gilleon, the lawyer representing the alleged victim identified in the lawsuit as “Jane Doe,” contacted the team’s legal counsel, Kathryn D’Angelo, by email.
“She seemed like she was concerned. She says she’ll get back to me, and then she never did,” Gilleon said. “I even followed up and said, `Hey, you guys haven’t talked to me and called me back like you said you would.′ And they just ignored that, too.”
Armstrong said he also informed his client to be upfront and inform the Bills about the allegations. Armstrong said he also kept in regular contact with the Bills over the past month to provide details of his own investigation into what happened.
“I 100% do not believe that he ever forcibly raped this girl or had sex with her while she was passed out or drunk or anything like that,” Armstrong said.
The Bills also conducted what they called a “thorough examination,” which eventually led to their decision to cut Haack.
The Bills also informed the NFL of the incident once they were made aware of it, a person familiar with the situation told The AP. The person, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the matter, wasn’t certain of the timeline.
The NFL declined to comment except to say it was aware of the matter.

TIJUANA (Border Report) — Guillermina Fernandez has lived near the Mexico-U.S. border on Tijuana east side of Tijuana for 30 years.
When she first moved into Colonia Las Torres, there wasn’t much of a barrier, and her neighborhood had no running water or electricity.
Since then, utilities have been put in and she’s seen the border wall go up just a few meters from her home, which she shares with her two daughters and husband.
Five years ago, she began selling plants and flowers out of a nursery she started on her property.
The business has thrived and has become her family’s primary source of income.
Fernandez says recently, people from the Mexican government have approached her about selling some of her land to be used for the Mexican side of the new Otay Mesa East Port of Entry.
“They said it was progress and not to stand in the way of it,” she said in Spanish.
“They said it was progress and not to stand in the way of it.”
Guillermina Fernandez, who lives near the planned Otay Mesa East Port of Entry
Fernandez says she sold 10 meters of her land to the government.
“Truth be told, they didn’t pay very much, they could’ve up paid a lot more,” she said.
Now, she said, her neighbors are also being approached.
“We worry, we’re very worried they are going to take everything away,” Fernandez said.
She’s been given till next month to clear out all her plants, flowers, pots, buckets and tables as construction crews are set to begin grading the land.
“They said it was for the border crossing, then they said it was for the roadway … maybe a bridge,” said Fernandez. “Everyone is being asked to turn over some of their property”
For Fernandez, the main concern is finding a good home for her plants and flowers currently in her yard, which she estimates is well over 1,000.
“I have to hurry to vacate, I need help moving all my plants,” she said. “In fact, I’ve started giving them away.”
Border Report reached out to Mexico’s federal government about the border crossing and the planned border crossing project for the area, and whether it plans to buy more land from residents. No one has made themselves available for comment. | https://www.ketk.com/news/special-reports/border-report/some-tijuana-residents-say-new-border-crossing-pushing-them-away/ | 2022-08-28T01:47:24Z | https://www.ketk.com/news/special-reports/border-report/some-tijuana-residents-say-new-border-crossing-pushing-them-away/ | false | 16 |

Afghanistan produced a dominating all-round display to thrash a below-par Sri Lanka by eight wickets and start their Asia Cup campaign on a resounding note here on Saturday.
Opting to bowl, Afghanistan first produced a sensational bowling effort to dismiss Sri Lanka for a paltry 105 in 19.4 overs.
This was the first time Afghanistan bowled out a team without Rashid Khan (4-0-12-0) taking a wicket which underlined their show as a collective bowling unit.
Left-arm pacer Fazalhaq Farooqi (3/11) rattled the top-order before spinners Mohammad Nabi (2/14) and Mujeeb-Ur-Rahman stifled the Lankans in the middle overs.
In reply, Afghanistan cantered home in just 10.1 overs to register a big win in their milestone 100th T20 International.
Young wicketkeeper-batter Rahmanullah Gurbaz gave Afghanistan a fiery start, smashing an 18-ball 40, while Hazratullah Zazai took the team over the line with an unbeaten 37 off 28 balls (5x4s, 1x6).
The win also gave a big push to Afghanistan's net run-rate (5.176) as they climbed to the top spot in Group B to brighten their Super 4 chances.
Group B also features Bangladesh, who take on Afghanistan at Sharjah on Tuesday.
The 20-year-old Rahmanullah, who overturned an lbw decision after being given out for nought, was all class as he toyed with the Lankan bowling attack.
Be it drives, pulls or lofted shots, Rahmanullah displayed an array of shots to take Afghanistan home comfortably.
His flawless innings, however, came to an end when he stepped out to leg-spinner Wanindu Hasaranga, only to be foxed by a slower one.
But it was too little too late as Afghanistan had all the time in their hands with just 23 needed from 13.5 overs.
The only blip in his sensational innings was when he was trapped in front and looked plumb but on review the ball tracking showed it was missing the leg stump.
Earlier, Farooqi (3/11) did the damage at the top, including wickets off successive deliveries in the opening over.
Sri Lanka had a horrendous start as they slumped to 5/3 inside two overs with Farooqi inflicting a double blow in consecutive deliveries in the opening over.
The only respite for the Islanders came from Bhanuka Rajapaksa who led their recovery with a stroke-filled 29-ball 38 (5x4s, 1x6). But two clumsy run-outs in two balls exposed the Lankans inexperience in the middle.
First it was Nabi who came up with a direct throw to end Rajapaksa's brilliant counter-attacking knock and then another mad running saw the dismissal of Maheesh Theekshana in the very next ball to leave Sri Lanka tottering at 69/8.
They were in danger of getting all out inside 15 overs after Nabi reduced them to 75 for 9.
Chamika Karunaratne showed the rearguard action with a 38-ball 31 (3x4, 1x6) to take them past 100.

Serbia's president said on Saturday the country will not host European LGBTIQ+ event EuroPride next month, but organisers have vowed to press on with the parade.
Many LGBTIQ+ people in Serbia live in fear and suffer physical and emotional abuse.
"The pride parade, however you call that thing, scheduled for September, will be postponed or cancelled," President Aleksandar Vucic told a press conference.

Mr Vucic said Serbia was "pressured with all kinds of problems", underlining recent tensions with former province Kosovo and concerns over energy and food.
"Simply, at some point, you can't handle everything. In another time, a happier one," Mr Vucic said.
Serbia's Prime Minister Ana Brnabic, who is gay, received a third consecutive mandate just minutes before Mr Vucic made the announcement, and sat in the front row while he spoke.
In a statement, the government said the decision was made on the grounds of safety.
It said "certain extremist groups could use and abuse this event and Serbia's will to organise it in order to further increase tensions and bring Serbia into instability".
Organisers struck a defiant tone.
"The state cannot cancel EuroPride — it can only attempt to forbid it, which would be a clear breach of the constitution", Belgrade Pride coordinator Marko Mihailovic wrote on Twitter.
"Pride will go ahead as planned on 17 September," he said.
'Downright lies'
Kristine Garina, President of the European Pride Organisers Association (EPOA) — which licenses EuroPride — said "neither the hosts of EuroPride 2022, Belgrade Pride, nor us as the licensor will cancel EuroPride in Belgrade."
"Aside from the illegality of such a ban, it must be noted that those opposing EuroPride in Belgrade are using tired old tropes, inaccuracies and downright lies to discredit what is, in fact, a celebration of human rights and equality," she said.
"EuroPride in Belgrade will not be cancelled... what Serbian authorities must do is stand firm against these bullies, and protect the event."
Serbia's hosting of EuroPride was "an important step along the path toward achieving equality for the LGBTIQ+ community in the Western Balkans", the organisers said earlier.
Holding hands in public remains taboo for same-sex couples in the country, where almost 60 percent of LGBTIQ+ people have reported physical or emotional abuse in the course of a year, according to a 2020 survey by human rights organisations IDEAS and GLIC.
Serbia's LGBTIQ+ community regularly faces violence, including attacks on Belgrade's Pride parades in previous years.
A law to regulate same-sex unions was due to be voted in parliament last year, but Mr Vucic said he could not sign it as the Serbian constitution "defines marriage as a legally regulated union of a man and a woman".
The influential Serbian Orthodox Church has historically played a key role in shaping public opinion, and has previously branded the annual Belgrade Pride march "a parade of shame".
The Church applauded the state's decision to pull back from hosting EuroPride 2022, stating that the parade would cause "further tensions and divisions between our people".
"Holding such a 'parade', which serves to promote LGBT ideology... would not benefit anyone", the Church said in a statement.
"It would cause further tensions and new divisions, along with revolt and bitterness among the believers." | https://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/inaccuracies-and-downright-lies-organisers-defiant-as-serbia-cancels-europride/2khgomzxs | 2022-08-28T02:26:17Z | https://www.sbs.com.au/news/article/inaccuracies-and-downright-lies-organisers-defiant-as-serbia-cancels-europride/2khgomzxs | true | 2 |
ACT Brumby Nic White has become South Africa's public enemy No. 1 for his "Oscar" theatrics on Saturday.
The Wallabies scrum half received an arm to the face in the 39th minute during a scrum feed deep in their 22 at Adelaide Oval, and fell to the ground with delayed-conviction.

South Africa's Faf de Klerk was shown a yellow card for delivering the head-high collision, shaking his head in disbelief as he went to serve his 10 minutes on the sideline.
And it was this that Springbok fans were not happy with during Australia's 25-17 win, with many taking to social media to express their views.
MORE IN CANBERRA SPORT:
One fan described it as worthy of an Oscar on Twitter, others compared it to the theatrics commonly associated with soccer, and another updated his Wikipedia page with some choice words.
Former Springboks skipper John Smit and fly half Butch James were two watching on that were not impressed with what they saw.
Smit tweeted that White's theatrics "killed a little piece of rugbys [sic] soul".
Whilst James said it was "a disgrace to the game of rugby that a player can behave like that."
But either way, in the rugby union rule book a head-high hit is a yellow-card offence.

The Research Brief is a short take on interesting academic work.
Black youths who attend racially segregated schools are more likely to have drinking and behavior problems during childhood than Black youths in less segregated schools. This is according to a new study we conducted using national survey data from 1997 to 2014.
School segregation, defined as the physical separation of students in schools based on their race, was ruled unconstitutional in 1954 as part of the U.S. Supreme Court’s Brown v. Board of Education decision. Consequently, about 1,000 districts nationwide were under court orders to desegregate.
However, school segregation has increased since 1991, when the first of a series of court decisions allowed districts to be released from court-ordered desegregation. Highly segregated schools – where less than 10% of students are white – increased from 5.7% to 18.6% of all schools – from 1988 to 2013.
The big idea
Our study is among the first to explore how this recent segregation affects the health of Black children. It examines whether the health of Black children in districts that were released from court-ordered desegregation earlier is different from those in districts released later.
Our research team analyzed data on school segregation levels and health outcomes for about 1,248 Black children ages 5 to 17. We measured school segregation using the dissimilarity index, which indicates the proportion of Black or white students who would need to move to a different school to make all schools in a school district have the same student racial distribution.
We found that the more segregated a school district, the more likely Black students were to have behavioral problems, and the more likely Black students older than 12 years were to drink alcohol. For Black girls, the more segregated the school, the likelihood of having drunk alcohol rose at twice the rate it did for Black boys.
Why it matters
Earlier studies about school desegregation in the 1960s and 1970s found that it led to improvements in Black people’s well-being, such as higher educational and occupational attainment, better self-rated health and reduced teen pregnancy rates.
Yet some scholars have argued that segregated schools can have certain benefits. For example, school segregation may have protective effects as Black youths in predominantly Black schools may face less interpersonal racism from white students and teachers than if they went to desegregated schools.
On the other hand, school segregation is a manifestation of structural racism, such that highly segregated schools are often underfunded, with more crowded classrooms, less experienced teachers and high teacher turnover. Segregated schools also tend to have harsher school discipline.
These stressful environments can increase mental and emotional challenges for Black youths, making them more likely to develop unhealthy coping behaviors like drinking alcohol. In addition, segregated schools are more likely to be in segregated neighborhoods, which are more often targeted for alcohol advertising and have substantially more liquor stores, making it easier for Black youths to obtain alcohol.
The results of our study suggest that the effects of structural racism and low school resources in segregated schools may be greater than the potential for reduced interpersonal racism.
What still isn’t known
This study did not examine why well-being was worse among Black youths in more segregated schools. For example, it didn’t examine whether it was because of fewer school counselors, higher stress levels or broader systemic factors. It also did not examine health among other groups like white, Hispanic or Asian children.
What’s next
Our team’s next steps are to explore the reasons school segregation affects young people’s well-being, not only for Black youths but also for white youths and other youths of color. Additionally, we plan to examine the long-term impact of school segregation as children transition to adulthood.

Dave raps with fan while making Leeds Festival history
By Paul Glynn
Entertainment reporter at Leeds Festival
- Published
Dave rapped on stage with a delighted fan while becoming Leeds Festival's youngest ever headliner on Saturday.
"I feel like I should share this moment with one of you guys for the final time," said the 24-year-old Londoner.
He then brought out an energetic young Merseysider, à la viral sensation Alex from Glastonbury several years ago, to perform the track Thiago Silva.
Earlier, US star Megan Thee Stallion invited "hot girls and guys" up from the audience for a dirty dance-off.
The Texan hip-hop sensation made history too by becoming the event's first black female co-headliner.
Dave is a born story-teller and clearly now made for the main stage.
He arrived wearing a matching green vest top and shorts, with a "Psycho" cap on, and backed by a marching band with added strings and brass, situated behind a big metal dome, he began to tell his truth.
"It's been a long road," he said. "I want to take you guys on a journey."
Funky Saturday
Stopping only briefly due to a safety concern in the crowd, he coolly performed songs from his Mobo Award-winning recent record We're All Alone in this Together, one of the biggest-selling albums of the year, which tackles themes of loneliness, mental health and racism in the UK.
As well as material from his Brit Award and Mercury Prize-winning album Psychodrama (hence the cap), which explores issues around grief, domestic abuse and his brother's incarceration.
There were good time vibes though, and early in the set he turned Saturday night in west Yorkshire into a Funky Friday, delivering his number one hit.
Then came the moment of the night. After his band played a snippet of The White Stripes anthem Seven Nation Army, up came a "buzzing" bare-chested young fan who said he had been waiting for seven hours in the hope of being selected.
"You nearly got me up in Newcastle," he revealed, excitedly. Then addressing the crowd, added: "I've been a fan of Dave for so long, I've been to three of his shows, I've been on tour with him... well, not with him!"
After going bar for bar with his hero twice, drawing loud cheers, he stopped for a quick selfie video and disappeared off into the night.
The limelight then fell back on the headliner, who let fans, old and new, into the secrets of his songwriting process, while switching between the piano and guitar. "Music is my way of communicating," he explained. "I'm not that good at speaking."
There were camera phones held aloft for as far as the eye could see as he ripped into his Stormzy collaboration Clash.
Unlike at Reading, Leeds' sister festival, the night before, there was no cameo from last year's headliner however. Though it didn't really matter, this was Dave's night. "It's one of the greatest honours in all of our lives," he beamed on behalf of himself and his band.
Speaking to Radio 1's Newsbeat in December, Dave said headlining a major event like Reading and Leeds would be a completely different challenge and experience to anything he has done before, promising "the highest quality production value that I can".
It was a promise he very much kept. Marking another big moment for UK grime and rap.
Before there was Dave there was Megan, who put on a highly sexually-charged HIIT class of a show, which peaked with a rendition of her's and Cardi B's track WAP (which I'm afraid I cannot decode for you here).
Her lyrics, filthier than some of the bodies on display that have been on the campsite since Wednesday, gave the brilliant sign language interpreters on the side of sound stage an unenviable task.
"We here to have a party tonight," she announced. "I hope you all ready."
Twerking throughout in a leather corset and thong, Megan handpicked some "hotties" from the crowd - including a woman in a white bikini, another in a cowboy hat and a bloke in Hawaiian shirt - to join her, as one of the main stages was briefly turned into a strip club.
"That's what I'm talking about!" she yelled, encouragingly, in the direction of her newest dance students, after having warned them not to be shy. It was a warning that was well-heeded by all.
Megan, who is currently embroiled in a dispute with her record label, played a career-spanning set that was a sight to behold.
'A good step forward for us'
Festival organiser Melvin Benn described her booking as "a good step forward for us", a nod to the much-needed diversification of the line-up in recent years, reflecting people's changing listening habits in the genre-straddling streaming era.
"Festivals are a reflection of what people are choosing to watch," he recently told Music Week. "As it happens, this year [Friday's co-headliner] Halsey was available and Megan Thee Stallion was available and they both wanted to play.
"Her show is exactly what the Reading and Leeds audience want and I was pleased and surprised that she wanted to do it."
Wolf Alice, who will play at Leeds on Sunday, said last year festival bookers had been playing it safe since Covid, giving preference to heritage acts.
And while there is still a long way to go in that regard, Saturday saw an abundance of new talent on display, including PinkPantheress, Griff and Joy Crookes.
Earlier another London rapper/actress Little Simz, who actually features alongside the multi-talented Dave in the cult gang drama Top Boy, set the tone for the evening getting the crowd to put their "dancing shoes" on to groove to songs from her critically-acclaimed albums, Sometimes I Might Be Introvert and Grey Area.
After finishing up with the tongue-twisting vocal gymnastics of Venom, she seemed genuinely humbled by the rapturous applause. "Every time I come to Leeds I have a wonderful time," she said. "I'm so grateful to be here."
She dedicated her penultimate track Woman to all the females in the field, rapping lyrics befitting of the evening ahead: "All I see is black stars and I love it, yeah / Time's up, tell the people that we coming, yeah, yeah."
Leeds Festival continues on Sunday with performances from Yorkshire rock bands Arctic Monkeys and Bring Me the Horizon, who both performed in Reading on Saturday evening.

What movies did Zoe Saldaña star in besides Avatar
When we talk about Zoe Saldanait is impossible not to link it with the franchise it created james cameron. We are talking about Avatar, the production that helped her rise to the top of fame and made her one of the most acclaimed actresses in Hollywood. Soon, the actress will once again put herself in the shoes of Neytiri in the second and third installments.

Zoe Saldaña movies you can’t miss
Guardians of the Galaxy (and other MCU projects)
One of the most famous characters in Zoe Saldana is Gamora, who first appeared in the movie Guardians of the Galaxy. Because it is part of the marvel universe and the stories of this study are always connected, the interpreter participated in many productions that soon became successful.
After her first appearance, we have seen her in Guardians of the Galaxy 2 and soon in the third volume, which will be directed by James Gunn and will be released in theaters only in 2023. He also appeared in the movies Avengers: Infinity War Y Avengers: Endgame.
star trek
As in Marvelthe actress also participated in several films of star trek. She put herself in the shoes of Nyota Uhura, a character she loved bringing to her life and who meant a lot to her: “She is a very respectful and loyal person. For me she is the woman I would like to be.” Her first appearance came in the film released in 2009.

Received message from ‘SBI’ to update your PAN card details? ‘It’s fake', says govt
The text message informed receivers that their SBI YONO account has been closed, and, to reactivate it, they need to update their PAN details with the bank.
In recent days, several people have received a message from ‘State Bank of India’ (SBI) informing them that their YONO account with the bank has been deactivated, and asking them to update their permanent account number (PAN) card details to reactivate the account. However, as expected, the message is fake, and the Union government, too, on Saturday, issued a clarification in this regard.

“A #Fake message issued in the name of SBI is asking customers to update their PAN number to avoid their account from getting blocked. Never respond to emails/SMS asking to share your personal or banking details,” PIB Fact Check, the central government's official Twitter handle to dispel misinformation on government policies and schemes, informed.
“SBI never asks for personal details through messages,” it added.
It also appealed to citizens to report such messages by writing an email to report.phishing@sbi.co.in, or calling on the helpline number 1930.
Meanwhile, this is what the viral text message said: " Dear Customer your SBI YONO Account Closed Today Contact now And Update your PAN NUMBER in the following link'. It also carried the ‘sender’s' name: Rajesh.

Also, that there is not a single punctuation mark in the message gives away that it is, in fact, fake.
What is SBI YONO?
YONO, which stands for 'You Only Need One', is an integrated digital platform developed by SBI. It was launched in December 2017, and enables users to access a variety of financial, as well as other services, such as bookings (flight, train, taxi), online shopping, medical bill payments etc.

By: David Schramm, Utah State University Extension family life specialist,
Summer is winding down, and many children are hitting the books instead of the snooze button. In addition to encouraging children to stay organized and responsible with their time and activities, it is important to have conversations about social tips that will help their relationships with friends, teachers and other school employees.
Here are four things to discuss with your children as they head back to school:
Make time to be kind. One of the best ways to make friends and a good first impression at school is to be kind. There are three simple things children of all ages can do – the three S’s – smile, serve and share. A smile is the first thing most people will see and remember. It shows friendliness, warmth and openness. Serving others in small ways will also open doors to friendship. A simple compliment or grabbing something that has fallen on the floor for someone can work wonders. Sharing paper, crayons or a treat can help as well. Parents can model these principles and invite their children to be kind and respectful to everyone.
Show gratitude. Just like with kindness, gratitude shows others you are open, thoughtful and humble. Children can give thanks to anyone they meet, from the bus driver, to the gym teacher, to the principal. They all work hard and need to hear expressions of thanks. Letters, texts and sticky notes are simple ways to show gratitude to others. Cultivating gratitude in children starts with parents’ willingness to express sincere thanks to others, especially their children.
Notice and appreciate the good in each day. Children are often bombarded with negativity, sometimes from the beginning of the day. From teasing and quizzes to homework and bad hair days, our brains are wired to focus and dwell on the tough things that happen. When children come home from school, ask about the best part of their day. Parents can do this at dinnertime or right before bedtime as well. It’s good to get good at noticing the good!
- Be quick to forgive. New schedules and routines can bring new challenges and stress. Be patient with your children, especially the first few weeks of school. When parents keep their tone of voice low and are quick to forgive, it helps teach children to be quick to forgive as well. Similarly, teach children to be patient with others and quick to forgive offenses, including those from friends and teachers. | https://www.upr.org/show/ask-an-expert/2022-08-26/ask-an-expert-four-back-to-school-tips-for-parents | 2022-08-28T03:00:10Z | https://www.upr.org/show/ask-an-expert/2022-08-26/ask-an-expert-four-back-to-school-tips-for-parents | true | 2 |
The Jewish community in Montana closed a deal Thursday to reacquire the state’s first synagogue, built in 1891, returning it to Jewish ownership for the first time in 87 years.
The Montana Jewish Project, a nonprofit organization, purchased the two-story Helena synagogue for an undisclosed amount from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Helena after a nine-month fundraising effort to turn the space into a Jewish community center.
The group is not planning to hire a rabbi or build a congregation, but it will offer holiday celebrations and other community-wide events for the roughly 100 Jews it estimates lives in the state’s capital city.
Rebecca Stanfel, the group’s president, said now that the funding has been secured, the community will “foster a sense of larger community for all of Montana’s Jews” by hiring a traveling director of programming to oversee education, speakers, and cultural events.
“We can’t wait to fulfill our mission: to create a statewide center for Jewish life, enhance interfaith opportunities, combat antisemitism in Montana schools, and bring to reality the Jewish value of ‘repairing the world,’” Julie Bir, a board member, told ABC affiliate Montana Right Now.
Montana is home to an estimated 1,500 Jews, out of a population of just over 1 million. While there is a Jewish member of the state legislature, a handful of Reform congregations scattered across the state, and Chabad emissaries who are active in real life and on social media, the state lacks some of the Jewish infrastructure present in larger communities.
“Helena was one of only four state capitals in the nation without a synagogue or Jewish Center,” Bir said in a statement. “We’ve just changed that. We’re also excited for Helena’s Jewish community to have a permanent place to meet for religious observance, cultural events, and community-growing.”
Built to accommodate the growing Jewish community out west during the Gold Rush, Temple Emanu-El could accommodate 500 worshippers in its sanctuary. By 1935, as the Jewish population dwindled and the Great Depression took hold, synagogue leadership sold the organ and pews to Seventh Day Adventists, and the building was sold to the state of Montana for $1 later that year. It became an office for the Department of Public Welfare, and religious symbols in the building were removed, including copper “onion domes” painted with Stars of David and a Hebrew inscription above the entrance that said “Gate to the eternal,” which was sandblasted.
In 1981, the state sold the building to the Catholic Diocese, which the Montana Jewish Project says has been a “good steward” of the building. The synagogue was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.
“It’s been my pleasure to work with the Montana Jewish Project through this process,” said Bishop Austin Vetter, leader of the Diocese of Helena, in a statement. “It’s vital for all of us that people of faith focus on the good that we can do together instead of our differences. My prayers are with them and Montana’s Jewish Community for God’s blessing in this new endeavor.”
Vetter and his staff met with the Montana Jewish Project for months, negotiating and renegotiating the sale and extending the closing deadline twice.
A ceremonial signing took place Friday and the building will be rededicated as a Jewish institution this fall.
“The past months have sometimes felt like pushing a boulder up a mountain trail,” Montana Jewish Project leaders wrote on their website. “Without the incredible community support we received, MJP would not be reclaiming this building.” | https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/358830 | 2022-08-28T03:06:12Z | https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/358830 | false | 4 |
Gibson, Castellanos lead Phillies to sixth straight victory
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Kyle Gibson pitched seven innings of six-hit ball, and the streaking Philadelphia Phillies shut out the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-0 on Saturday night for their sixth straight victory.
Nick Castellanos homered as Philadelphia moved a season-best 17 games over .500. Bryce Harper singled and was intentionally walked twice in his second game back after missing 52 contests with a broken left thumb.
The Phillies (72-55) are second in the NL wild-card standings with the franchise's best record since 2011 when it won the last of its five straight NL East titles.
Gibson (9-5) struck out nine and walked one. Sam Coonrod worked the eighth and Nick Nelson finished the six-hitter with a 1-2-3 ninth, striking out two.
Bligh Madris doubled and Greg Allen had two hits for the Pirates, who have lost seven in a row and 13 of 15.
A night after driving in two runs with a bases-loaded, first-inning single in Philadelphia's 7-4 victory, Harper singled again in the first off Tyler Beede (1-4) to load the bases with one out. J.T. Realmuto followed with a bases-clearing double.
The Phillies added two runs in the second on Rhys Hoskins' RBI single and Alec Bohm's run-scoring groundout. Castellanos made it 6-0 when he led off the third with his 13th homer on a night with a fans' giveaway of a T-shirt with his likeness.
Pirates manager Derek Shelton didn't give Harper, the reigning NL MVP, a chance to do much damage. Shelton intentionally walked Harper with two outs and nobody on in the second and in the sixth with two outs and a man on first. Realmuto followed by striking out swinging after both walks.
The crowd of 37,105 for Harper's return was the eighth-best of the season at Citizens Bank Park. As in Friday's contest, they cheered loudly when he came to the plate – and booed just as boisterously on the two free passes.
Philadelphia has won all six of its games against Pittsburgh this season. Only Oakland and Washington entered with fewer wins than the Pirates, who dropped to 47-79.
Beede, making his fifth consecutive start after relieving for most of the season, gave up five hits in three innings with five strikeouts and three walks. Chase De Jong followed with three scoreless innings in relief, but the Pirates came up empty at the plate.
The 34-year-old Gibson ended with seven scoreless innings for the third time this season. He has a 2.41 ERA in his last six starts.
NO SERVICE
After losing his appeal, Pirates infielder Rodolfo Castro served a one-game suspension imposed by MLB for accidentally having his cell phone in his pocket on Aug. 9 against Arizona. Castro's phone fell out of his back pocket while sliding into third base.
TRAINER'S ROOM
Phillies: CF Brandon Marsh returned to the lineup after missing 10 games due to a sprained ankle. Marsh went 0 for 4 with three strikeouts.
UP NEXT
Pirates RHP Roansy Contreras (3-4, 3.86 ERA) opposes Phillies RHP Noah Syndergaard (8-8, 3.77 ERA) in the finale of the three-game series on Sunday.

Where in Maine hunters shot the most bears last year
Bear season begins in earnest on Monday, Aug. 29, and it is likely to be another productive year for hunters. That prediction is based on the reported decreased abundance or quality of natural food sources for bears, which should be out searching for food and thus more susceptible to harvest by bait hunters. Dry conditions in much of Maine have led to smaller crops of beech nuts, acorns and berries.

My computer was making me other-worldly angry, and it seemed the only true way to describe what a piece of crap it was being. There's a reason old sayings stand the test of time.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Logan Woodside scrambled for a 9-yard touchdown on fourth-and-goal with 52 seconds left and the Tennessee Titans wrapped up the preseason Saturday night by rallying to beat the Arizona Cardinals 26-23.
Woodside's rally likely won't be enough to remain veteran Ryan Tannehill's backup despite helping the Titans (2-1) finish the preseason with a second straight home win. Woodside was 5 of 9 for 43 yards on his lone drive, but rookie Malik Willis turned in his best performance this preseason in his third start.
Rookie Jarrett Guarantano tried to rally the Cardinals (1-2), but he was flagged for intentional grounding when being grabbed by Titans linebacker Rashad Weaver for a loss of down and a 10-second runoff. Sam Okuayinonu sacked Guarantano to end the game.
Willis ran four times for a game-high 79 yards, including scampering 50 yards to set up a 3-yard TD run by Julius Chestnut. He also capped a drive just before halftime with a sidearm throw around Arizona linebacker Myjai Sanders to Treylon Burks across the middle. The first-round pick finished off a 14-yard TD for a 13-7 lead.
The quarterback drafted at No. 86 overall in the third round was sacked four times and was 15 of 23 for 131 yards despite being sacked twice in the first quarter by Cardinals rookie Cameron Thomas. Willis also was intercepted by James Wiggins on a pass deflected by Ben Niemann.
Even better was how the third quarterback drafted in April showed patience staying in the pocket looking for wide receivers.
The Cardinals nearly pulled out the win with Matt Prater kicking three field goals, and Guarantano hit Greg Dortch for a 2-yard TD pass late in the third quarter.
Kyler Murray watched his third straight preseason game as Trace McSorley started by hitting his first seven passes for 71 yards to set up a 1-yard run by Darrel Williams on the opening drive. Then he hit a skid completing only 1 of 11 for 10 yards. Andy Isabella finished with five catches for a game-high 115 yards, including a 74-yard catch-and-run.
The Titans and Cardinals both went with protection for the regular season over needing to give most starters a last tune-up before the regular season. Veteran wide receiver Robert Woods caught a pass in his first action this preseason.
TENNESSEE JOBS' COMPETITION
Undrafted free agent Ryan Stonehouse punted for the Titans, and the rookie from Colorado State took a big step toward winning the job held by three-time Pro Bowler Brett Kern. Stonehouse boomed a 64-yarder with his impressive hangtime on a ball downed at the Arizona 7. He averaged 49.4 yards on seven punts with three downed inside the Cardinals 20.
Kern is Tennessee's longest-tenured player and ranks third all time with 197 regular-season games played since being claimed off waivers from Denver in 2009.
Rookie Nicholas Petit-Frere started at right tackle for the Titans, a job the third-round pick out of Ohio State seems to have won this preseason over Dillon Radunz, a second-round pick in 2021.
INJURIES
Burks went to the locker room with an injured right wrist late in the first quarter. He finished with his best game yet with three catches on three targets for 33 yards. Safety Lonnie Johnson, claimed off waivers Aug. 16, hurt a shoulder but returned.
Cardinals offensive tackle Rashaad Coward hurt his chest early in the second quarter and didn't return. Arizona safety Tae Daley went down but walked off after the Woodside TD run.
UP NEXT
The Cardinals open the season Sept. 11 by hosting Kansas City.
Tennessee hosts the New York Giants in its season opener Sept. 11.

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/2717664295305/rug-pull-alert-sudorare-nft-marketplace-shuts-shop-within-six-hours-of-launch | 2022-08-28T04:01:12Z | https://www.newsbreak.com/news/2717664295305/rug-pull-alert-sudorare-nft-marketplace-shuts-shop-within-six-hours-of-launch | true | 12721 |
New genus of cyanobacteria discovered in Tripura by BHU researchers
The newly-discovered genus has been named Johanseniella while the species has been named Tripurensis as it was discovered in Tripura
A new genus of cyanobacteria was discovered in Tripura by a team of researchers of Banaras Hindu University (BHU), according to a press communique issued by the varsity’s Information and Public Relations office on Thursday.
Cyanobacteria, a vital component in ecosystem, are the organisms responsible for oxygenation of Earth.
Hailing from Tripura, Sagarika Pal, a PhD scholar of BHU’s Centre of Advanced Study in Department of Botany, initiated the study in 2020 under the guidance of Dr. Prashant Singh, who is an assistant professor in the department.
The team comprised Naresh Kumar, PhD scholar, Arush Singh, Utkarsh Talukdar and Niraj Kohar, M.Sc students of Botany in BHU and Aniket Saraf from RJ college in Mumbai.
The newly-discovered genus has been named Johanseniella, after well-known phycologist Prof. Jeffrey R. Johansen from the John Caroll University, United States while the species has been named Tripurensis as it was discovered in Tripura.
“.. Achieving a milestone in the field of taxonomy ( the science of identification of living forms), BHU scientists have achieved a major breakthrough by identifying and describing a new genus of cyanobacteria from the North Eastern state of Tripura......Johanseniella tripurensis, is the first report of a new cyanobacterial genus being discovered from this region, which also happens to be one of the handful of findings of such genera in India,” said the press communique.
The Department of Science and Technology ( DST), Science and Engineering Research Board (SERB) Core Research Grant and the Seed Grant under the BHU Institution of Eminence Scheme funded the research work.
According to the researchers, there might be vast numbers of cyanobacteria in the Northeast that are yet to be discovered and they are hopeful that the study will help to discover, identify and conserve cyanobacteria from different parts of the global biodiversity hot spot.
“This particular cyanobacteria has been collected from a small village named Hurua, Dharmanagar, North district of Tripura. This study could serve as a template for promoting conservation efforts across the Northeast Region. We are further extending ourselves and will continue to work more on cyanobacteria from these biodiversity hot spots,” said Dr Prashant Singh.
“This newly identified cyanobacteria from Tripura can be researched to check its potential for high value products and ability to withstand varied environment conditions,” said Sabyasachi Dasgupta, professor of Department of Forestry and Biodiversity, Tripura University. | https://www.hindustantimes.com/science/new-genus-of-cyanobacteria-discovered-in-tripura-by-bhu-researchers-101661577487035-amp.html | 2022-08-28T04:08:59Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/science/new-genus-of-cyanobacteria-discovered-in-tripura-by-bhu-researchers-101661577487035-amp.html | true | 2 |
CHICAGO (AP) — Jake McCarthy had a career-high four hits, and the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the fading Chicago White Sox 10-5 on Saturday night.

A guidebook devoted to exploring the 'hidden beaches' of Britain has waxed lyrical about the caves and nesting birds at Flamborough Head.
A promontory eight miles long between Filey and Bridlington, Flamborough Head has long captured the imagination of explorers, birdwatchers and holidaymakers.
In the book Wild Swimming - Hidden Beaches, author Daniel Start says Flamborough Head has more cave habitats than any other place in Britain, as well as having some of the largest numbers of nesting birds, from gannets to puffins. Visitors to Flamborough Head this summer have also commented on the number of seals they were lucky enough to see at the East Riding coastal location. The book makes clear that swimming on this coast is only for experienced wild swimmers as the tides and currents can be very strong outside the safer, sheltered bays.

A visitor called it a must-see place for nature lovers, saying: "Easily accessible Beach in Flamborough on the North Yorkshire coast. It is a must-visit for anyone interested in wildlife and nature. During our visit, we managed to spot five seals playing in the sea not even 100 yards off the shore."
A visitor from York said: "Flamborough is famous for its chalk cliffs, its two coves and the lighthouse. It is a popular spot and the cliff walks are well worth the time."
Earlier this month, one TripAdvisor reviewer wrote: "Flamborough is a must-see - spectactular. We loved Flamborough Head. Catching sight of gannets and puffins, fulmars, razorbills and guillemots as well as seals and the odd kestrel it was an enchanting spot. Recommended."
Another visitor who posted a review this month said: "Seals everywhere! Really nice clifftop area with fantastic views of the seals and nesting birds."
According to Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, sea birds can be seen during the late spring and early summer at Flamborough's 100ft high chalk cliffs.
Common seals, also known as harbour seals, are a protected species. They can be seen from January to December, according to the YWT. Grey seals, the larger of the two UK seal species, can also be spotted all year round and can be found all around the UK in the water or on the beach. There are an estimated 120,000 grey seals in Britain and they are also protected.

Anderson Julio’s goal on a header in the 69th minute was the equalizer as visiting Real Salt Lake came from behind to produce a 1-1 draw with FC Dallas on Saturday in a key Western Conference match in Frisco, Texas.
Dallas (11-8-10, 43 points) has a loss and a draw in its past two matches after a two-game win streak. Saturday’s draw dropped Dallas into fourth place, one point behind Minnesota, with four points separating it from both Nashville and Real Salt Lake with five matches to play.
Real Salt Lake (10-8-9, 39 points) is 1-1-3 in their past five matches and settled for a 1-1 draw for the second straight game. RSL fell to sixth in the West with seven regular season matches remaining.
Dallas took the early advantage with Alan Velasco pouncing on the rebound of a pass by Paul Arriola in the seventh minute and sending the opportunity past RSL goalkeeper Zac MacMath into the bottom left corner.
Real Salt Lake came close to answering twice in the first half. First, Pablo Ruiz blasted a shot off the post in the 21st minute. Nine minutes later, Justin Meram seemingly had drawn a foul on Dallas keeper Maarten Paes in the box, but the infraction was reversed by VAR decision, taking away a potential penalty kick.
Paes made a critical save in the 66th minute when he leaped to deflect a free kick from outside the box by Ruiz. Paes got just enough of his right hand on the kick for it to clang off the underneath of the crossbar and out.
But Paes could do nothing about Julio’s game-tying goal three minutes later. A cross into the box by Aaron Herrera found the head of the leaping Julio, who outjumped a Dallas defender and deftly directed the header just inside the right post.

Belagavi: The government has planned a to build a mini-airport at Athani, a border town in Belagavi district, to give a boost to business. If the project comes through, the mini-airport will be the second airport in the district.
Athani MLA Mahesh Kumathalli had written a letter to the government, urging it to establish a mini-airport, to help businessmen and the public from the region. Following this, the Karnataka State Industrial Infrastructure Corporation (KSIIC) had asked to suggest a location to build the airport.
Athani taluk revenue officials have identified 200 acres for building an airport at Yalihadagali village in Athani taluk. On August 23, the DSIIC and taluk revenue department officials visited the spot for an inspection. The people in Athani are happy at the development.
Positive development: Bizman
Anand Jain, a businessman from Athani, expressed happiness over this news. He said that an airport is needed, as the taluk has five sugar factories, and other businesses, like export of grapes, pomegranate and commercial crops.
“However, if we have to travel to other states, we need to go to Belagavi airport, which 150km from Athani. An entire day would go in this, which is burdensome. Moreover, Athani taluk is located near Vijayapura, Solapur, Pune and Badami, which are places of historical importance, and also pilgrimage sites. If Athani has an airport, it will be easy to visit these places,” he added.
Tahsildar Suresh Munje said that revenue department and DSIIC staff have visited a spot at Yalihadagali, to inspect if it is suitable for an airport. “As our taluk is in a border district, our department and the local MLA are trying to develop new the infrastructure here. Efforts will continue to develop an airport in Athani taluk. We have submitted a report to the state government, and we hope they will soon take a call on this,” he added.

Ridder leads Falcons past Jaguars 28-12 in preseason
(AP) -Desmond Ridder’s first throw didn’t go as planned.
He didn’t let it bother him.
The unflappable rookie shook off an interception on his very first pass to lead the Atlanta Falcons to their first home preseason win since 2016, beating the Jacksonville Jaguars 28-12 Saturday.
“It was not the hottest start,” Ridder said with a faint smile. “But you just play the next play ... no matter what happened on the last one.”
Both teams relied mainly on backups and roster wannabes in their preseason finale, with the Falcons (2-1) prevailing behind their third-round draft pick out of Cincinnati.
Playing into the fourth quarter, Ridder completed 14 of 25 passes for 185 yards, including a 2-yard touchdown throw to fellow rookie Tyler Allgeier in the first quarter.
Ridder also guided two impressive touchdown drives in the second half before calling it a day against the Jaguars (0-4).
There was an eight-play, 90-yard possession in which the rookie completed all three of his passes for 69 yards before Caleb Huntley’s 1-yard scoring run. The Falcon then drove 80 yards on 14 plays, with Ridder completing three more passes before Allgeier scored his second TD on a 4-yard run.
The Falcons had lost eight straight home preseason games since moving into Mercedes-Benz Stadium in 2017. The 75,000-seat facility looked less than half-full for Saturday’s game.
“We’re trying to build something real here,” second-year coach Arthur Smith said. “I’ll promise you: This place is gonna be rocking when we get this thing rolling.”
E.J. Perry went the distance at quarterback for the Jaguars. He completed 19 of 27 for 201 yards, with a pair of interceptions.
Perry hooked up with Laquon Treadwell on a 7-yard pass with 12 seconds left in the first half to cut Atlanta’s lead to 14-12.
“A lot of guys today made a statement for a possible roster spot or practice squad spot,” first-year Jaguars coach Doug Pederson said.
On the very first play from scrimmage, Ridder threw an ill-advised pass down the middle that was picked off by Daniel Thomas. The Jaguars safety returned it 10 yards to the Atlanta 35, setting up James McCourt’s 54-yard field goal.
The play began to fall apart when one Falcon went the wrong way and Ridder had a rusher in his face. He should have thrown it away. Instead, he showed his inexperience.
“Trying to be a hero,” Smith said. “He let one mistake become two.”
By the end of the game, Ridder had more than made up for it.
McCourt also connected from 38 yards, while Jake Verity was wide left on a 46-yard try.
In their search for a reliable kicker, the Jaguars have tried out four contenders during the preseason.
Ryan Santoso was let go on Tuesday, the same day the team claimed McCourt off waivers. Then, on Friday, the Jaguars added Verity to the roster to give McCourt some competition in the preseason finale.
Pederson said Saturday’s game “will not necessarily decide it. Maybe we’ll figure it out this week in practice and go from there, make that decision possibly Tuesday.”
The special teams set up an Atlanta TD.
Quinton Bell ran right by a backfield blocker to smother a punt by Logan Cooke. DeAngelo Malone recovered the blocked kick at the Jaguars 1, and Qadree Ollison ran it for a touchdown on the next play to make it 14-6.
Both teams sat their No. 1 quarterbacks.
Trevor Lawrence took it easy after playing in two preseason games for the Jaguars. Same for Atlanta’s Marcus Mariota, who watched from the sideline as his young backup got his first NFL start.

- Max Verstappen was one of six drivers to take a penalty for power unit changes.
- One of the others was closest championship rival Charles Leclerc, who will line up alongside his title opponent in 16th place after qualifying fourth.
- Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz qualified second but will start from pole position, ahead of Red Bull’s Sergio Perez, with Alpine’s Fernando Alonso third.
Formula 1 resumes this weekend with the Belgian Grand Prix at the iconic Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps.
Max Verstappen holds a comfortable 80-point lead over nearest opponent Charles Leclerc in his quest for a second world title. And Verstappen obliterated his rivals during qualifying for the Belgian Grand Prix, setting a lap time of 1 minute, 43.665 seconds that was over six-tenths clear of the field.
But Verstappen will line up only 15th on the grid for Sunday’s race.
That is because Red Bull has opted to equip his RB18 with a fresh power unit, exceeding his allocation for the season, and consequently incurring the mandatory penalty of being relegated to the back of the grid.
Verstappen was one of six drivers to take such a penalty, with one of the others being Leclerc, who will line up alongside his title opponent in 16th place after qualifying fourth.
Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz qualified second but will start from pole position, ahead of Red Bull’s Sergio Perez, with Alpine’s Fernando Alonso third. Esteban Ocon, who qualified fifth, will drop to 17th place, with Lando Norris, Zhou Guanyu and Mick Schumacher the others to take such a penalty.
In such a situation those drivers with "back-of-the-grid" penalties are lined up in their qualifying order, hence Verstappen, the fastest of the group of six, being 15th.
A seventh driver, Valtteri Bottas, also took on fresh components but did so in such a way that he was handed two separate 15-place grid penalties. Bottas qualified last of the 20 competitors yet will start from 14th despite having a 30-place grid penalty.
It is one of those situations where an eminently logical penalty system – given F1’s desire to limit components yet have a sanction that will hurt teams and drivers – ends up creating an exceptionally messy and complex outcome that hardly paints the sport in a flourishing light.
Despite having 14 grid positions in hand on the World Champion Sainz was wary of the threat from behind.
“Yeah, I think so, yeah,” Sainz said on whether Verstappen is a victory contender. “If I would have done his lap that he did today I’d be confident – especially if there’s a Safety Car or something that closes the gap.”
Verstappen, too, was clear in his ambition.
“We need to move forward” he said. “I think with a car like this it would be a shame not to be on the podium.”
Mercedes has made little impression during the weekend so far, with Lewis Hamilton and George Russell only seventh and eighth fastest, but they will start fourth and fifth respectively.
The standout star of Saturday was Williams’ Alexander Albon. He made use of Williams’ strong straight-line speed to capture his first Q3 appearance of the season. With all the penalties, he’ll start sixth.

AUBURN, Ala. (AP) — Girl Scouts who attend Auburn City Schools have created a petition asking the school board to update the current dress code for the school system, saying students should feel comfortable and shouldn’t be worried about “getting publicly shamed.”
Marcie Gaylor, the volunteer experience coordinator for Girl Scouts of Southern Alabama, said about four girls from Troop 7018 and Troop 7012 got together in May to discuss the dress code and came up with the idea to modify it. The girls came up with the wording by themselves with the guidance of a few adults, Gaylor said.
“We always encourage girls to become involved, and especially to do that through appropriate channels,” she said. “Part of our Girl Scout law says to respect yourself and others and to respect authority. They’re also asked to be courageous and strong and make the world a better place.”
The online petition received hundreds of signatures just days after it went live on Aug. 19.
Daniel Chesser, public relations coordinator for Auburn City Schools, said the district was made aware of the petition and planned meetings to discuss it.
“Having students put a petition together is something that I think is encouraged by the school system for students to have a voice,” Chesser said.
In the petition, the girls state that the dress code “prevents girls’ success” as it makes girls self-conscious, stressed and anxious.
The Girl Scouts stated that the current dress code wastes instructional time and discriminates against individuals with low income. It also describes the difficulty girls have while shopping and trying to find clothes that fit the rules.
“Because all bodies are different, lots of girls cannot find clothing that meets the dress code on the shelves of any store in Auburn,” the petition states. “The same shirt or pair of shorts will fit dress code on one girl but not another.”
Gaylor said one of the rules the girls would like to change involves the required length for shorts, skirts and dresses. The system currently requires all hemlines to be no shorter than 4 inches above the knee. The Girl Scouts proposed to change it to a standardized inseam length, so it’s easier to shop for.
Several parents and even former students have voiced their approval for the petition on Facebook.
“Way to Go Girls!!! I 100% support this,” one parent wrote. “My 5’8” tall daughter always had to wear jeans in 100 degree heat.”
“Can non parents sign? I’m a former student of ACS and have ALWAYS had issues with the overall restrictive and sexist dress code,” another person wrote. “Glad to see people pushing for a more realistic and modern approach and especially from the student body itself!”
As the parent of a first-grader and a fourth-grader, Gaylor said she is all for updating the dress code.
Some parents on Facebook commented that the dress code is also a struggle for boys, something Gaylor said the girls who wrote the petition are taking into consideration.
“Their thinking here is that this is something that affects a lot of girls,” Gaylor said. “In fact, they have learned since then that boys are also affected by the dress code and that boys also struggle with finding appropriate clothes to wear for the school system.”
The Girl Scouts looked at dress codes from Opelika and Tuscaloosa and developed their own proposed dress code to present to the system. | https://www.timesunion.com/news/article/Girls-Scouts-challenging-dress-code-in-Alabama-17402964.php | 2022-08-28T05:03:09Z | https://www.timesunion.com/news/article/Girls-Scouts-challenging-dress-code-in-Alabama-17402964.php | true | 13 |

OAKLAND, Calif. — Shea Langeliers scored the game-winning run on a throwing error by second baseman DJ LeMahieu in the 11th inning, and the Oakland Athletics held the New York Yankees to one hit in a 3-2 victory Saturday night.
With runners on first and second and one out, Chad Pinder hit an apparent double-play grounder to shortstop off Lou Trivino (2-8).
The Yankees got the force at second base but LeMahieu's throw to first was off target, allowing Langeliers to score the run that snapped New York's five-game winning streak.
Joel Payamps (3-3) pitched a scoreless 11th for the win as the Yankees managed just one hit — their fewest in an extra-inning game since at least 1906, according to Sportradar.
After neither team scored in the first nine innings, there was plenty of action in extras.
The Yankees got on the board in the top of the 10th, with Andrew Benintendi and Josh Donaldson scoring the first runs of the game on a wild pitch by A.J. Puk followed by a throwing error by catcher Sean Murphy.
Stephen Vogt answered with a two-run homer off Ron Marinaccio with one out in the bottom half to tie the game.
Neither team managed a hit through five innings — the third time that's happened in a game over the past three seasons.
Adam Oller faced the minimum 24 batters in eight innings for Oakland, allowing one hit and one walk. He had one batter reach on an error in an 88-pitch outing. Oller erased two runners on caught stealings he initiated and the other was retired on a double-play grounder in the best outing of his young career.
Domingo Germán was just as sharp for the Yankees, allowing three hits and no walks in 7 2/3 scoreless innings.
FAN ON THE FIELD
The game was delayed briefly in the top of the ninth when a fan got out on the field. He was brought down by security near the right-field line and taken out.
DEFENSIVE GEMS
There were several highlight-reel plays on defense both ways.
LeMahieu making a slick, backhand stop to rob Murphy to end the first inning.
Pinder making a leaping catch into the right-field wall to take an extra-base hit away from Oswaldo Cabrera in the third.
Germán got help from his outfield, with Aaron Judge making a leaping grab into the center-field wall to rob Cal Stevenson leading off the sixth and Benintendi making a sliding catch in left to take a hit away from Vimael Machin in the seventh.
TRAINER'S ROOM
Yankees: New York reliever Aroldis Chapman was placed on the injured list after getting an infection in his leg from a recent tattoo. ... C Jose Trevino was held out of the lineup after getting hit by a pitch on his toe. ... Giancarlo Stanton got the night off after serving as the DH the past two days after coming off the IL. ... LHP Zach Britton (Tommy John surgery) left his second minor league rehab appearance in Florida after three batters with an injury.
Athletics: RHP Dany Jiménez will miss the rest of the season after going on the 60-day IL with a strained right shoulder. It is the second time this season Jiménez has been sidelined with a strained right shoulder after missing six weeks earlier this year. He is 3-4 with 11 saves and a 3.41 ERA in 34 appearances. ... RHP Austin Pruitt was called up from Triple-A Las Vegas to take Jiménez's place.
UP NEXT
Adrián Martínez (2-3, 6.08 ERA) will be called up from the minors to start the series finale Sunday for the A's, with Zach Logue shifting to the bullpen. Clarke Schmidt (5-2, 2.18) makes his second start of the season for the Yankees.

The effects of vitamin B12 supplementation on metabolic profile of patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: a randomized controlled trial
The present study is the first effort to evaluate the effects of vitamin B12 supplementation on the serum level of liver enzymes, homocysteine, grade of hepatic steatosis, and metabolic profiles in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Forty patients with NAFLD were enrolled in a double-blind placebo-controlled trial to receive either one oral tablet of vitamin B12 (1000 µg cyanocobalamin) or a placebo per day for 12 weeks. We investigated serum levels of homocysteine, aminotransferases, fasting blood glucose (FBG), lipids, malondialdehyde (MDA), and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). The grade of liver steatosis and fibrosis was measured by real-time 2-dimensional shear wave elastography. Vitamin B12 supplementation significantly decreased serum levels of homocysteine compared to placebo (medians:"‰âˆ’"‰2.1 vs."‰âˆ’"‰0.003 µmol/l; P"‰="‰0.038). Although serum alanine transaminase (ALT) in the vitamin B12 group decreased significantly, this change did not reach a significant level compared to the placebo group (medians:"‰âˆ’"‰7.0 vs. 0.0 IU/l; P"‰>"‰0.05). Despite the significant within-group decrease in FBG, MDA, and liver steatosis in the vitamin B12 group, between-group comparisons did not reveal any significant difference. Vitamin B12 supplementation might decrease serum levels of homocysteine in patients with NAFLD. The fasting blood glucose and serum levels of MDA were significantly improved in the trial group who received vitamin B12. However, these changes did not reach a significant level compared to the placebo group. In this respect, further studies with larger sample sizes, different doses, and types of vitamin B12 will reveal additional evidence.

The Illicit Affair That Took Place In William And Catherine's New Home
Kensington Palace confirmed Catherine Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, and Prince William's move to Adelaide Cottage in Windsor — but some people are livid with Catherine and William about their new home. A spokesperson for the U.K. organization Republic called the Cambridge's move to Adelaide Cottage "disgraceful," and Newsweek reported that Graham Smith, Republic's chief executive, roasted Catherine and William in a statement. Smith said, "Adelaide Cottage is a huge house by any standards, and it's attached to another home which we can assume will be for servants and staff." The executive noted that Kate and William's move to Windsor is the couple's fourth home, and added that even if private funds cover some costs, "All these palatial homes require round-the-clock protection, heating, and staffing." The Republic spokesperson raged on, "While ordinary households are struggling with their energy bills and facing crippling inflation, why are we giving yet another home to William and Kate? This is disgraceful."

ST. LOUIS – Braves closer Kenley Jansen, who has pitched well this season, blew his fifth save of the season as the Cardinals defeated Atlanta, 6-5, in walk-off fashion Saturday night.
Here are five observations on the Braves (79-49):
1. On other nights, Jansen could have faced much tougher questions. He had entered the bottom of the ninth with a one-run lead, only to blow the save and the game, walking in the winning run. A nightmare played out before the Braves’ eyes.
But this feels like a shallow view during this stretch of Braves baseball. Atlanta has been so successful lately.
“It’s a bad one and you just got to shake it off,” Jansen said. “It’s been a while that I’ve had one like this.”
He’s right: Saturday marked Jansen’s first blown save since June 26 against the Dodgers, his former team. After that, he had allowed three earned runs over 14 2/3 innings – while converting all nine of his save opportunities – until this rough outing.
The Braves had won four straight games, seven of eight and 15 of 17 before St. Louis scored two runs on Jansen to walk it off.
“This one is just the one that you just got to let it go,” Jansen said. “It’s a weird one and don’t even worry about it. Tomorrow’s another day and that’s the beauty of this game, that I get to face the same hitters again and I can go to work again and get back on track. ... You just got to let it go.”
NL East update: The Mets beat the Rockies 3-0. The Braves trail New York by three games.
2. After getting an out, Jansen gave up a double to Brendan Donovan on an outer-half pitch that he wanted to throw inside. Then he walked Paul Goldschmidt, who could win the National League MVP this season, before hitting Nolan Arenado to load the bases.
“Everything was flat,” Jansen said. “The ball was cutting.”
The Cardinals scored a run on Corey Dickerson’s infield single. They won the game when Jansen walked in the winning run on five pitches.
The sold-out crowd partied while the Braves slowly walked off the field.
“It’s a weird one,” Jansen said. “I’m not even gonna lose sleep over this one. The great thing is we got another day tomorrow and just come out here against these guys. Listen, man, we’re all human and of course we don’t want to ever blow a game, but that’s the nature of the game. You’ve got your ups, you’ve got your downs and you got to fight through it. It’s happened with me many times, so I know how to come back and get back on top.”
3. One play symbolized the adage, “That’s baseball.”
With one out and the bases loaded, Jansen got exactly what he wanted versus Dickerson: A grounder.
The only issue: Dickerson hit it 76.7 mph, far too slow for Dansby Swanson to try and turn a game-ending double play. Swanson charged it, but didn’t have a play. Jansen said the infield had been playing in before that at-bat, but moved back to try and turn the double play.
“Credit to him,” Jansen said of Dickerson. “He fought it off and got that hit right there, and that was the one.”
“That’s kind of the difference in winning and losing,” manager Brian Snitker said.

4. Charlie Morton took accountability for allowing four runs over five innings.
“The guys scored runs, they made some great plays, the bullpen did a great job,” he said. “Giving up four runs, that put the guys in a really tough spot. Overall, I don’t see anything bad (with the team) other than the fact that I didn’t do my job.”
In the fourth inning, Morton left a cutter over the plate and Andrew Knizner crushed a two-run home run. In the fifth, Morton threw a curveball over the dish and Arenado put it over the wall for another two-run homer.
Morton did not look sharp. He walked three batters and allowed five hits.
In the top of the fourth inning, the Braves jumped out to a four-run lead with a three-run homer from Travis d’Arnaud and a run-scoring single from Michael Harris. An inning later, Austin Riley doubled home a run.
5. No doubt, this one stings. The Braves probably will not let it distract them from the larger picture.
“It’s going to happen,” Snitker said. “It’s a tough game. You hate to lose any of them. Guys fought their (rear) off. It’s part of it. We just have to handle it. We have before and we will again, and come out and win a game tomorrow, win the series.”
Cardinals 6, Braves 5
Stat to know
29 - Jansen is tied for the MLB lead with 29 saves.
Quotable
“Unfortunately, this happened in the ninth. You don’t want to come and give it up, but it’s baseball, man. This game is tough, it’s hard. I know how to just get back – take it like a champ and get back and come back tomorrow, and we’ll fight again.” - Jansen
Up next
Jake Odorizzi will face Cardinals icon Adam Wainwright on ESPN’s Sunday Night Baseball, which begins at 7:08 ET.

Six journalists with 20-plus years of experience were recognized by Webb County this week and given a plaque of distinction for their service to the community.
Juan Rodriguez, Miguel Timochenkov, Francisco “Paco” Díaz, Rogelio Guzman, Jose Luis “El Puma” Vargas Rodríguez and Lorena Rodriguez Marquez were the individuals honored for their duty keeping Los Dos Laredos informed.
These individuals were recently also recognized by the Asociación de Periodistas de Nuevo Laredo, which also accomplished its 50th year as an organization, according to Precinct 1 Commissioner Jesse Gonzalez.
“Here with us is much talent and many years of experience that not only have been done in Nuevo Laredo but in the community of Laredo and the county,” Gonzalez said. “Thank you so much, because you not only cover the story but spread the word of what is happening in our community and let people know of events that benefit our community like school supply distributions, when turkeys are given on Thanksgiving, toy drives.”
Miguel Timochenkov, who’s served the Sister Cities for 51 years, expressed how grateful he was to see the community transform to what it is now.
“Since the 70s, I have been working on both sides of the border. I remember all the moments — sad, happy, splendorous and everything involving the development of a city and a county,” Timochencov said. “I used to come to the City Hall and Commissioners Court when the mayor was J.C. Martin. Since then, I’ve seen how Laredo has changed and what it has been turned into. That means that I have been present on the goods and the bads of the community, but that’s necessary to reach the goals wanted.
“I thank you from my part and in the name of my colleagues for this distinction. It is something we are passionate about, and we are paid to do it which is a great thing!”
On the other hand, Rogelio Guzman also shared some words to the commissioners after 38 years in the business.
“Being a border journalist is an unconventional experience,” Guzman said. “We cover the events that happen in the United States but also in Mexico and form a border point of view. It’s very different.
“So many years we’ve been covering everyday events, no matter if its cold or hot, and we are thankful that you recognize the labor that we do in both Laredos.
Jose Luis “El Puma” Vargas added that being a journalist sometimes involves many dangers, especially across the border in Mexico.
“This is an immeasurable gesture for us, and being a journalist in Mexico is something very dangerous,” Vargas said. “Actually, many journalists have been murdered, and in Tamaulipas, a colleague of mine was also a victim.”
He also explained that they encounter many barriers, such as digital platforms.
“Nowadays everyone can be a reporter just by having a smartphone and believe things that they see on social media,” Vargas said. “So that’s why I thank you to all commissioners. I’ve known you for many years, and I am always happy to see you and interview you.”

THEY were behind on the scoreboard and under pressure, but St Pat's responded by piling on 28 unanswered points to extend their Group 10 league tag dynasty.
In posting a 34-10 win over Orange CYMS in Saturday's grand final at Carrington Park, the Saints made it four consecutive premierships.
Advertisement
It's the sixth time since the inception of the league tag competition in 2012 the Saints have won on grand final day and their current premiership streak is the best in any grade in Group 10 since Oberon's first grade dominance six decades ago.
"It's pretty special, a lot of the girls have been there for the four. We really, really wanted this one," St Pat's captain-coach Mish Somers said.
While the Saints had lost just once in 61 outings heading into Saturday's grand final, a CYMS upset seemed a real possibility as the game neared half-time.
With CYMS halves Tori Moore and Sophie Stammers sparking in attack, the Orange side held a 10-6 lead and looked on top.
But as champion teams do, the Saints responded to pressure by turning momentum back in their favour.
In the space of six minutes a four-point deficit became an eight point lead and from there - as the song goes - the Saints went marching in.
"It was a tight, fast game and it was quite hot out there so it took a bit out of the legs that first half," Somers said.
"But the girls rallied and a couple of late tries at the end of that first half really lifted us.
"When that try went over just before half-time I think it gave the girls a bit of belief that they'd have the legs to get there in the end.
"Not as many mistakes in the second half, we really put them under pressure and they made a few mistakes, gave us a few repeat sets."
Though CYMS was unable to repeat its major semi-final heroics and upset the Saints once more, it was not from lack of effort.
Inside the final four minutes Georgia Barrett made a full length diving tag to stop a potential Saints try, Hope Gibson made a string of incisive runs, Kate Foran had a line break on her statistics sheet and Emily Williams was secure at fullback.
Skipper Moore also did her best to inspire her young side, but she said the experience of the Saints was the telling factor.

"We've got a young team, they've got experience, they haven't been the best side for the last five years for no reason. You just can't beat it, experience and speed," Moore said.
"The first half pretty much played out like the first half did in the semi. They scored first, the same chick scored, then we scored the same way, a grubber.
"It would've been good if it set up a score like the last game, but in the second half it wasn't to be. We didn't give up, but we kind of killed ourselves with forward passes and dropped ball.
"We are lucky that we've got a lot of good young ones coming up, hopefully we can go one better next year, but yeah, Pat's were just too good today."
It was the experience of Somers that laid the foundation for the Saints' opening try. On her side's third set of the match she opted to kick early on the fourth tag.

She came up with a 40-20.
Off the following set a good Ebony O'Neill run down the right edge got the Saints in reach, the ball then being spread to the opposite wing where Lily Booth crossed.
CYMS' first chance came via Moore three minutes later when she stepped her way through the line and grubbered.
The Saints cleaned up on that occasion, but when CYMS deployed the tactic again it worked.
This time it was Stammers who put in the grubber, the five-eighth then following through to score in the 11th minute.
It was a try that lifted CYMS and the belief grew when, seven minutes out from the break, Marley Cardwell scored following consecutive sets in attack on the Saints' line.

Barrett added the extras to make it 10-6 and then CYMS was gifted another chance as Somers put the kick-off out on the full.
But the Saints held firm in the set that followed and then came a piece of individual brilliant from Sarah White.
She beat numerous defenders on a run of some 35 metres to score. It was part of an effort which saw her earn player of the match honours.
Then, just seconds out from the break, a brilliant Cheynoah Merchant ball put the flying Darcie Morrison over between the sticks.
Somers converted to make at 18-10 at the break and when the Saints emerged for the second half, they went on with the job.
Advertisement
Booth picked up her second try eight minutes after the resumption of play, the Saints having built pressure in repeat sets.
Handling errors made it hard for CYMS to get out if its half and while the Orange side toiled in defence, the weight of possession the Saints enjoyed in good territory told.
Winger Jasmyn Osborne scored with a tick over five minutes remaining, then White sealed it her second. When she grounded the ball there was 1:47 left on the clock.
Somers added the extras to make it 34-10 before the siren sounded, the Saints then celebrating another premiership season.
ST PAT'S 34 (Sarah White 2, Lily Booth 2, Jasmyn Osborne, Darcie Morrison tries; Mish Somers 5 goals) defeated ORANGE CYMS 10 (Sophie Stammers, Marley Cardwell tries; Georgie Barrett goal)

Bhubaneswar, Aug 28 : The Odisha police have arrested another Nigerian resident and his wife from New Delhi for allegedly duping Rs 30 lakh from a Balasore man through honey-trapping, said an official.
The accused identified as Emmanuel Nnamani and his wife T. Suchim Tikhir. Nnamani is a Nigeria resident while his wife belongs to Nagaland, said Amresh Kumar Panigrahi, additional SP, Balasore.
Earlier, Samson Emeke Alika was arrested on this case registered at cyber and economic offence police station, Balasore.
A man had lodged a complaint before the cyber police in April alleging that one day a lady came in contact with him through Facebook by introducing himself as a young woman from London.
Later, they exchanged texts through WhatsApp. Then the lady told the victim that she had sent costly gift items including gold biscuits, a Rolex watch and an iPhone for him.
Later, the lady Suchim Tikhir, claiming himself as a customs officer from New Delhi, called the victim and asked him to give him custom charges to receive the gifts sent by his friend from London, said Panigrahi.
Accordingly, the victim kept on spending lakhs of rupees to receive the gifts. He has transferred around Rs 30 lakh but did not get the gifts.
The police said they have seized two laptops, one Hyundai i20 car, one Dangal, two invalid passports, one SBI passbook, two gold chains and seven mobile phones from their possession.
The three persons worked as a team to cheat the victim from Balasore district. Further investigating into the case is on to nab other people involved in the case, he added.
