Last fall, the Madison Bulldogs bested Dell Rapids 38-28 in the Class 11A state semifinals. The Bulldogs went on to win the state championship with a 31-0 victory against Milbank.
Trojan Field in Madison was the site for a rematch of that state semifinals matchup on Friday. This time it was Dell Rapids coming out on top. The fourth-ranked team in Class 11A defeated the No. 1-ranked Bulldogs 33-14 to kick off the 2022 season.
After a Dell Rapids interception and a Madison three-and-out, the Dell Rapids Quarriers started their second possession at their own 18 yard line with 9:34 left in the first quarter. They marched down the field on a 15-play, 82-yard drive that chewed up 8 minutes and 13 seconds off the clock. It was a drive in which Dell Rapids converted on two fourth-down attempts and with a two-yard passing touchdown on fourth down.
The Bulldogs went three-and-out on their second drive of the game. After Madison’s defense made a stop on fourth down, the Bulldogs’ offense again went three-and-out.
Dell Rapids scored on a five-yard rushing touchdown with 2:52 left in the first half to take a 14-0 lead.
A Bruce Galde run picked up Madison’s first first down of the game with 2:06 left in the second quarter. Following the Galde run, quarterback Ben Brooks connected with Shane Veenhof to set up Madison inside the 20 yard line with 1:29 left in the first half.
With 15 seconds left in the half, Brooks connected with Galde for a seven-yard passing touchdown to get the Bulldogs on the board and make it a 14-7 ballgame in favor of Dell Rapids at halftime.
The Bulldogs got the ball to start the second half,but were unable to move the chains. They went three-and-out for the fourth time in the ballgame.
Dell Rapids scored on a five-yard rushing touchdown with 2:51 left in the third quarter to make it a 20-7 game. The extra point was blocked by the Bulldogs.
With the Bulldogs facing a 4th and one at Dell Rapids’ 24 yard line, Brooks took it himself to move the chains. On 4th and 10, Brooks connected with Andrew Comes to set up the Bulldogs at the 1 yard line. Galde took it from 1 yard out to make it a 20-14 ballgame with 10:23 left in the game.
Dell Rapids answered with a one-yard rushing touchdown of its own to make it a 26-14 game with 4:43 left in the fourth quarter. Dell Rapids tacked on one more score to make the final 33-14.
The Bulldogs will look to bounce back on Friday when they travel to Milbank to take on the Milbank Bulldogs. Milbank lost their season-opener against Beresford 41-6. | https://www.madisondailyleader.com/sports/article_3bdd20dc-26e8-11ed-974c-67d322254ef0.html | 2022-08-29T07:14:47Z | https://www.madisondailyleader.com/sports/article_3bdd20dc-26e8-11ed-974c-67d322254ef0.html | true | 1 |

In an interview to the media, Vaishnaw said the draft of the revised Data Protection Bill will be released for consultation soon.
He stressed that the country's data protection framework should be in tune with modern times and not look like an attempt to 'create a paper system for a digital world'.
The government earlier withdrew The Personal Data Protection Bill, 2019, in the Lok Sabha, saying that it will come up with a fresh Bill that fits into the comprehensive legal framework with reference to the suggestions made by the Joint Committee of Parliament on the Bill.
Vaishnaw told the media that the principles of data protection and privacy are now well established all over the world and the government is more or less already practising those principles ever since the Supreme Court gave the judgment. He said the focus now is to make sure that the implementation of the law and principles is in tune with modern times.

China Keeps Wary Watch As US Warships Sail Through Taiwan Strait
After Pelosi's visit, China went ballistic conducting massive military exercises for several days including firing missiles over the Taiwan island
BEIJING: The Chinese navy on Sunday kept a close watch as two American warships sailed through the Taiwan Strait, separating China and Taiwan, the first such operation since US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited Taipei early this month, sparking a new round of tensions between the two countries.
The US warships sailed through the Taiwan Strait where the Chinese military has carried out its biggest exercises for several days in August, often crossing the median line that separated the Chinese mainland and Taiwan, which Beijing viciously claims as part of it.
"The USS Antietam and the USS Chancellorsville, two US guided-missile cruisers, sailed through the Taiwan Strait on August 28 and hyped it up publicly," the Eastern Theatre Command (ETC) of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) said on Sunday.
The ETC conducted security tracking and monitoring of the US warships' passage in the whole course and had all movements of the two US warships under control, Senior Colonel Shi Yi, spokesperson for the ETC, said in a statement.
The troops of the PLA Eastern Theatre Command always stay on high alert and get ready to thwart any provocation, he added.
Criticising the American naval ships transit through the island, a write-up in the state-run Global Times said the "US is trying to appease the Taiwan authorities and regional allies, conveying to them that Washington will not back down under military pressure from the Chinese mainland".
This is the first time the US warships sailed through the Taiwan Strait, a busy and strategic waterway separating China and Taiwan, after Pelosi's visit though according to the official media accounts here over 100 American warships transited through the water since 2012, challenging China's claims over the area.
The US has been conducting similar naval and aerial expeditions in the disputed South China Sea to assert freedom of navigation, countering Beijing's claims over most of the area.
The Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei and Taiwan have counterclaims over the South China Sea. Pelosi's visit, the first by a top US official in 25 years, set off a series of US lawmakers visits to Taipei. US Senator Marsha Blackburn became the fourth lawmaker to visit Taiwan when she travelled to Taipei last week.
"I will not be bullied by Communist China into turning my back on the island," she was quoted as saying by CNN. "Taiwan is our strongest partner in the Indo-Pacific Region. Regular high-level visits to Taipei are long-standing US policy," said Blackburn, a Tennessee Republican who sits on the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Blackburn met Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen and other senior officials during her three-day stay, the Hong Kong-based South China Morning Post reported.

Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], August 29 (ANI): India and China should come together as partners rather than rivals, Chinese Ambassador Sun Weidong said on Sunday.
He made these remarks on the sidelines of a seminar in Bengaluru titled 'Interference of the US imperialist in the internal affairs of the People's Republic of China'. It was organised by the India-China Friendship Association (ICFA), Karnataka.
"I have come here for friendship and we have many friends here and all over India, actually, although we are facing some difficulties in the past two years. This relationship has witnessed some momentum of recovery due to the joint efforts of both sides. This year, President Xi Jinping has a congratulatory letter to President Murmu," the Chinese Ambassador told ANI.
"Also the leaders of both countries participated in the BRICS summit hosted by China. Our State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi paid a visit to India in March earlier this year and he also met the External Affairs Minister Dr S Jaishankar in Indonesia," he added.
India's engagement with China has remained complex since the April-May 2020 border clash.
The two sides have agreed to manage their differences and not allow differences on any issue to become disputes. Earlier, the Chinese side undertook several attempts to unilaterally alter the status quo along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in the Western Sector, which seriously disturbed the peace and tranquility along the LAC.
These attempts were invariably met with an appropriate response from Indian Armed Forces. However, the continued unilateral attempts by China to change the status quo have impacted the bilateral relationship since then.
The Chinese envoy insisted that both countries can find common ground on bilateral ties.
"We find common grounds and census on the China-India relationship because we all believe the China-India relationship is very important both for our two countries, our people and for the region and the world. We should come together and see each other as partners rather than rivals," he said.
Last week, the leader of the Opposition in Karnataka Siddaramaiah refused to participate in an event organised by the Chinese embassy citing ideological differences.
"Although I refused to participate in the program organized by India-China Friendship Association on Sunday, I was surprised to see my name in the invitation letter," Siddaramaiah tweeted.
He also outlined the reason: "I am not participating in the program as ideologically my stand and that of our party is against the purpose of the program." (ANI)

Climate independent MP says she bought fossil fuel shares to drive change from within
Climate 200 independent Kylea Tink says she purchased “small shareholdings” in two fossil fuel companies to better understand their operations and potentially drive change from within.
Tink – who was elected as the federal independent MP for North Sydney in May alongside several other “teals” – owns shares in Viva Energy Group, which refines oil for Shell in Australia and owns Geelong Oil Refinery, and Beach Energy, an oil and gas exploration and production firm.
The investments were revealed in Tink’s recently published declaration of interests, a requirement for all MPs.
Through a spokesperson, Tink told the Herald and The Age she bought small shareholdings in a number of companies “where she felt shareholder activism may be a way to both better understand the entities involved and potentially exert pressure from within to drive reform”.
Tink chose Viva Energy as she was “concerned the refinery was not being pushed to produce the highest quality fuel for the Australian market”, while she chose Beach Energy to “provide her with insight into how they were proceeding with oil and gas exploration”.
“Kylea has been very vocal in her desire to see change and reform and remains committed to exploring shareholder activism as a way to affect change,” the spokesperson said.
“She would encourage anyone with the capacity to take such a course of action to also become shareholders in the companies that they wish to see reformed as it is often only from working within that change can be driven.”
Tink did not disclose how many shares she bought but said she donated her dividend payments to renewable energy campaigns or emissions offsetting. Her spokesperson did not answer questions about the extent of her shareholder activism, whether she attended any shareholder meetings or whether she would now divest her shares.
Like other teals, Tink has been critical of fossil fuels and the companies that profit from them, including in a tweet in April: “Fossil fuel producers need to find other forms of energy if they want to stay in business.”
Beach Energy – whose largest shareholder is billionaire mogul Kerry Stokes’ Seven Group – has cashed in on rising commodity prices over the past 12 months and is due to start exporting LNG from the Waitsia Stage 2 gas project in the Perth Basin next year.
Viva Energy says its Geelong refinery supplies more than 50 per cent of Victoria’s fuel. It also wants to develop a floating terminal in Corio Bay, at the Geelong end of Port Phillip, which could receive super-chilled cargoes of LNG from Western Australia or overseas.
Tink’s register of interests also revealed joint ownership of two trusts, Hendren Property and HML Asset Capital, which make “investment(s) in related companies”, as well as shares in Telstra and Sonic Healthcare, among other firms.
Before entering politics her career included stints as chief executive of children’s cancer charity Camp Quality, breast cancer charity McGrath Foundation and public relations agency Edelman.

The United States dollar surged to a 20-year high against a basket of currencies on Monday after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell signalled interest rates would be kept higher for longer to bring down soaring inflation.
The dollar index scaled to a fresh two-decade peak of 109.44 in the Asia trade, with greenback strength pushing other major currencies to new lows and putting pressure on its emerging markets counterparts.
The dollar hit 138.88 against the Japanese yen, the highest since July 21, while the offshore yuan fell to a fresh two-year low of 6.93 per dollar.
Sterling also fell to a 2-1/2-year low of $1.1656 and was last down 0.61 per cent to $1.16, while the euro fell 0.49pc to $0.99.
The moves extended dollar gains made on Friday when Powell warned there would be “some pain” for households and businesses as it will take time for the Fed to control inflation.
“Powell made it clear that there is no dovish pivot as some market participants had expected,” Carol Kong, senior associate for currency strategy and international economics at Commonwealth Bank of Australia, said.
“I think for this week, the (US dollar index) is going to track even higher towards 110 points, just as market participants continue to price in more aggressive tightening cycles by the major central banks.”
Yields on US Treasuries were also up on Monday on the back of Powell’s comments, with the two-year yields rising to 3.49pc, the highest since late 2007, while the 10-year yields stood at around 3.12pc.
Markets are now pricing in about a 76.5pc chance of a 75 basis point rate hike at the next Fed meeting in September.
“While the discussion on the magnitude of rate hikes may start to take a backseat from here, focus will shift to peak rates and how long those will be held,” said Charu Chanana, market strategist at Saxo Capital Markets.
Despite the potential for a hike that big at the European Central Bank’s (ECB) September policy meeting, the euro has struggled with investors more focused on an energy crisis in the bloc.
Markets are pricing in the risk that the ECB could hike by 75 basis points next month, after some policymakers flagged interest in such a big move.
However, Saxo’s Chanana said the bigger focus will be on the Nord Stream maintenance and how quickly the pipeline comes back to operation, as Russian state energy giant Gazprom is expected to halt natural gas supplies to Europe this week, from Aug 31 to Sept 2.
Similarly, the risk-sensitive Australian and New Zealand dollars struggled to hold gains on Monday.
The Aussie was down 0.7pc to $0.68, the lowest since July 19, while the kiwi hit a new one-month low of $0.61.
In cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin remained below the $20,000 level as investor sentiment dipped, and was last down 3.89pc to $19,843.02. | https://www.dawn.com/news/1707366/dollar-hits-20-year-high-as-fed-flags-higher-rates-for-longer | 2022-08-29T07:52:36Z | https://www.dawn.com/news/1707366/dollar-hits-20-year-high-as-fed-flags-higher-rates-for-longer | true | 5 |
'You've got this!' Jaime Winstone reveals she heard the late Barbara Windsor's voice after putting on Peggy Mitchell wig for EastEnders flashback
Jaime Winstone has revealed she heard the late Barbara Windsor's voice after putting on the famous Peggy Mitchell wig to film an EastEnders flashback episode.
The soap star, 37, also admitted she had difficulty shaking off the 'wiggle and giggle' of Dame Barbara's Carry On persona when playing her a second time, the first being 2017's BBC biopic Babs.
She told The Mirror: 'It's f***ing nerve-wracking. You're just playing the most iconic character in British TV history! I tried to turn the nerves into excitement. As soon as I put the wig on, I could hear her saying, "You've got this."'
'You've got this!' Jaime Winstone has revealed she heard the late Barbara Windsor's voice after putting on the famous Peggy Mitchell wig to film an EastEnders flashback episode
'Those words, "Get out of my pub!" were ringing in my head. I've played so many parts in Barbara's life but not Peggy Mitchell and it had been niggling at me.
'I had to strip all the Carry On stuff away – like the wiggle, the giggle – and implement all the stuff Peggy grew from. It took a long time. Peggy is different, she's tough, she's vulnerable but nobody's seen her at this point in her life.'
The actress also claimed it was the excellent script that persuaded her to play Barbara in the upcoming episode.
It comes after Jaime revealed she was sent 'signs' by the late Barbara that she should take on her role of Peggy in the special flashback episode of EastEnders.
Talented: The soap star, 37, had difficulty shaking off the 'wiggle and giggle' of Barbara's Carry On persona when playing her a second time, following 2017's BBC biopic Babs
She admitted she was 'scared' to take on the star's iconic role in the one-off episode, and she had to 'think about it properly' when she was offered the part.
Speaking on Thursday's This Morning, Jaime added that she 'loved' the chance to play one of Barbara's iconic characters in an 'epic' flashback episode, which focuses on the Mitchell family as they're thrown into turmoil.
Jaime told hosts Ruth Langsford and Rylan Clark that she got the chance to meet Barbara when she previously played her in a 2017 biopic.
She said: 'I didn't get to Peggy [when she portrayed Barbara Windsor previously in her biopic] so this is a real bookend of my journey [playing Peggy] and I had to shake that Carry On-esque and it took a long time to shake that wiggle and that giggle.
Candid: It comes after Jaime revealed she was sent 'signs' by the late Barbara that she should take on her role of Peggy in the special flashback episode of EastEnders
'But I got to implement all the stuff personally with Barbara… I got to see her at home and I got to sit around the piano and sing with her.'
'She was so gorgeous and so generous with her time and had so much love and energy.'
Barbara died in December 2020 at the age of 83, two years after her husband Scott Mitchell publicly shared she had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease.
Jaime is set to play Mitchelle matriarch Peggy in a special flashback episode of EastEnders that will air on Monday 5th September, and sees the family facing hardship as they struggle to get by in the late 1970s.
Proud: Speaking of Barbara she said: 'She was so gorgeous and so generous with her time and had so much love and energy'
She explained: 'It's really about the family before the Mitchells became the Mitchells… and also see why Phil is who he is. It's set in 1979, the backdrop is London, grim, quite skint, there's rubbish on the streets… and different for women then, women knew their place and did the cooking, the cleaning and were very proud home keepers…
'It's a turbulent episode - there's lots to take in. It's fast paced… you'll see a more vulnerable side to her. It's the making of how Peggy Mitchell became Peggy Mitchell.'
Sharing her response when she got the call to play a young Peggy, Jaime added: 'It was scary.
'I had to think about it properly, I had a deep chat with my agents about it but when it's an opportunity like this - Peggy Mitchell - the landlady of our nation - it's an honour for me.
RIP: Barbara died in December 2020, six years after she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease, and two years after publicly revealing her health battle (pictured in December 2018)
'She's such a tough mum and she really believed in her boys and that deep protection. And you know I got a lot of that from Barbara myself, I put a lot of that into it, and once I put that wig on... that was it.'
Jaime then revealed: 'I did sort of speak to her and say, ''is this the right thing for me? Am I allowed to do it?'' And I had a few signs.'
Asked whether viewers could see more of her on The Square, she added: 'Watch this space! I really love the idea of doing a working class period drama - going back and doing something in the 70s was just epic.'
On Wednesday EastEnders shared a first look image of the young Mitchell family that will appear in the flashback episode next month.
A newly released dramatic family portrait, taken in a conventional 1970s dining room, showed Jaime Winstone at the centre as the family matriarch Peggy Mitchell.
Torn: Discussing the moment she was called to take on the role, she said: 'It was scary. 'I had to think about it properly'
Peggy is flanked by her sons, the infamous Mitchell brothers Phil and Grant, played by Daniel Delaney and Teddy Jay respectively, while a young Billy Mitchell, who will be portrayed by George Greenland, lurks in the background.
The image also gives fans of the BBC One soap a taste of characters from EastEnders history that have never been seen on screen before.
Sitting at the dining table is Peggy's husband Eric, played by George Russo, and Charlie Mitchell, Billy's older brother played by Charlie Heptinstall, is positioned next to his brother in the corner of the room.
During the episode, Peggy will have her hands full keeping the household in line while cracks are beginning to show in her marriage to Eric, while Phil and Eric are busy vying for the title of man of the house, leading to rising tensions.
Blast from the past! On Wednesday EastEnders shared a first look image of the young Mitchell family that will appear in the flashback episode next month
Billy and Charlie's father Stephen, played by Dean Roberts, will also appear in the flashback episode, along with Henry Garrett as Archie and Rose Reynolds as Glenda.
Elsewhere in the special, Archie is up to his usual tricks as wife Glenda watches over their daughters Ronnie and Roxy, trying to keep the girls out of trouble.
As present day Phil grapples with growing pressure from DCI Keeble, audiences will be taken on a journey back to his youth where clues to his present will be revealed.

Peggy Mitchell was originally played by Dame Barbara Windsor, who joined the long-running soap in 1994 before becoming its biggest star.
Dame Barbara died in December 2020 aged 83 having been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2014.
Dame Barbara's on-screen sons Grant and Phil, played by Ross Kemp and Steve McFadden, have been at the centre of some of the BBC One soap's most explosive storylines over the years, as has Peggy's daughter, Sam, originally played by Danniella Westbrook, with Kim Medcalf taking over the role in the early 2000s.
The EastEnders Mitchell family flashback special will air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer on September 5 at 7.30pm.

DEAR HARRIETTE: I spent time with some good friends I hadn't hung out with in years. Over the course of the weekend, we had some pretty serious conversations that were healing, in a way. We were able to talk about some things that had been on our chest, so to speak, but never resolved. Even now, I'm not sure we resolved anything, but we did clear the air, and it feels like our friendship got tighter.
As they were leaving, though, I did begin to worry a bit about whether they would keep our conversations confidential. We were really vulnerable and open when we talked. Do you think I need to say anything to reinforce our privacy? -- Hush
DEAR HUSH: What you can do without offending anyone is to reach out to your friends and express your gratitude for the quality time that you just spent together. Acknowledge how important it felt to you to be able to speak so openly about topics that had been buried for so long. Share that you appreciate the safe space that you all created together that allowed for you to go deep with each other. To be able to be so vulnerable only comes with a level of trust. Thank them for trusting you as you trusted them to be able to share that special time together. Add that you appreciate knowing that what you discussed will remain safe in their care.

DEAR HARRIETTE: I was doing some research on my family tree the other day and saw an article that says that my father was married previously. Nobody ever told me that. I saw photos of him and a woman I do not know in wedding clothing at a church. It definitely was a wedding photo. My father is now in his 80s, but he is of sound mind. My mother passed away last year. I know they were really close. Do I bring this up to my dad? I don't want to upset him, but I realize there is a big part of our family story that I do not know. -- First Marriage
DEAR FIRST MARRIAGE: You can broach this topic carefully. Frame it with the facts: You were doing some research on your family and stumbled upon some surprising information that you want to run by him. Get his blessing to open this door before you do. Make sure your father is in a positive state of mind and not distracted by anything else when you bring this up to him.
Then, if possible, show him the wedding picture. Tell him you were surprised to see it because you did not know he was married previously. Ask him to tell you about his first wife and that part of his life. Do not push, though. He may decide to reveal something about this time in his life, or he may choose to keep that door closed. Let him make the decision. | https://thetandd.com/vulnerable-moment-leads-to-moment-of-doubt/article_e65e3276-07a5-5ea1-a868-16de4059b568.html | 2022-08-29T07:59:11Z | https://thetandd.com/vulnerable-moment-leads-to-moment-of-doubt/article_e65e3276-07a5-5ea1-a868-16de4059b568.html | false | 4 |

Text description provided by the architects. Located in City Bell, a residential neighborhood on the outskirts of the City of La Plata. The project was commissioned by a couple who were returning from an experience abroad in a small city, where nature was the protagonist.
The relationship with the natural environment was one of the important premises for the new house: outdoor spaces, green spaces, natural light, and the use of noble materials, these were the essential guidelines for the development of the project.
The lot. The decision to implement the house was not only linked to municipal regulations, but also to the qualities and particularities of the lot. The property is made up of two lots, and an existing house that belongs to the family, which shares the park and pool with the new house. A location was sought among the existing trees, incorporating the vegetation into the house through courtyards and terraces that qualify the relationship with the environment.
The project. The house is developed on a single floor, in the form of an "H" defining a scheme of two main bodies: The first, for rest and work (bedrooms, study, bathrooms) close to the municipal line, protected by a green courtyard that limits the house five meters from the street.
The other body, facing northwest, solves the social spaces of the house (dining room, living room, gallery) that takes the total dimension of the dining room and is almost three meters deep. This essential space for the house not only solves a space for transition and expansion of the building but also regulates and protects the almost fifteen meters of windows that overlook the park of the house.
These two spaces (social and private areas) are articulated through a third body that contains the kitchen, the laundry room, the pantry and a small toilet. In this way, the house links all its spaces, both private and social, through a series of courtyards, which not only organize the floor plan of the house but also flood all spaces with light and nature.
The interior-exterior relationship was an essential condition for this house. Therefore, a series of wooden shutters in the form of threshers graduate, accentuate and make more flexible the fine barrier that exists between the interior and the exterior, allowing the possibility of not only regulating the physical and visual ties but also generating different treatments of light and the afternoon breeze. Therefore, these resources, understood as sustainable acts to incorporate natural ventilation, overhead light, and shade, guarantee the house's excellent environmental qualities.
The Materiality. The house was designed in reinforced concrete, exposed brick with horizontal joints, and PVC carpentry with high-performance DVH glass. The choice of these materials not only poses a sought-after language but also reduces maintenance to a minimum and guarantees very good ageing.
The choice of reinforced concrete is given especially by its structural and constructional qualities. The possibility of molding and monolithic joints gave us greater freedom to think about each of the spaces. In this way, the house is built in a traditional way using techniques and materials from the region. | https://www.archdaily.com/985869/house-vv-federico-garcia-arquitecto-plus-juan-barbero-arquitecto | 2022-08-29T08:00:52Z | https://www.archdaily.com/985869/house-vv-federico-garcia-arquitecto-plus-juan-barbero-arquitecto | false | 1 |
Jose P. Ramirez Jr. had been sick for years before a Mexican healer told him he had "a disease of the Bible." He was 20 when he was diagnosed with leprosy, known as Hansen's disease, in 1968.
The illness uprooted Ramirez from his large family, his high-school sweetheart, and his home in Laredo, Texas. State officials ordered him to seek treatment at the U.S. Public Health Hospital in Carville, La. — the only leprosarium in the continental United States.
Ramirez has written a new memoir about his battle with Hansen's disease. Squint: My Journey with Leprosy is an epic story of family bonds, faith and stigma. Ramirez shares his journey in an interview with host Jacki Lyden.

Acer's eco-friendly packaging, film, animation, and campaign designs garner international recognition for their creative communication and design excellence
TAIPEI , Aug. 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Acer received multiple 2022 Red Dot Brands & Communication Design awards for six projects across various categories, including packaging, campaign, film, and animation designs. The Aspire Vero and Aspire Vero National Geographic Edition both took home the "Packaging Design" award for their eco-friendly and innovative packaging designs. Acer's company-wide awareness initiative, the Project Humanity documentary and campaign, obtained two awards in the "Film & Animation" and "Advertising" categories.
In addition, the Predator "It Lies Within" gaming campaign bagged an award in the "Advertising" category, while the ConceptD 500/100's product video was bestowed an award in the "Film & Animation" category for its stellar storyboard. These newest accolades add to the growing list of Red Dot Design awards that Acer has accumulated over the years.
The Red Dot Design awards is an internationally recognized competition that aims to acknowledge innovative companies and give due recognition for their next-generation concept designs. A panel consisting of international design experts, ranging from various industries and backgrounds, were tasked to assess each submission based on their own individual merits. Acer bested more than 9,000 entries, ranging from 50 countries in receiving these prestigious distinctions.
Acer Aspire Vero Eco-Friendly Packaging Design
The green packaging design is part of Acer's first sustainability-focused laptop, the Aspire Vero, that features several green innovations.
The Acer Aspire Vero's packaging was conceptualized from the ground up with the purpose of incorporating reusable packaging components to reduce waste generation, without sacrificing the product's protection. The box is made from 80-85% recycled paper pulp and uses paper sleeves for its adapter's protective casing. The remaining packaging is also 100% recyclable, while its inner partition and can be converted into an adjustable notebook stand with just a few easy steps. Furthermore, the laptop bag and the sheet between the keyboard is made with 100% recycled PET.
Acer Aspire Vero National Geographic Edition's Green Packaging Design
The Aspire Vero National Geographic Edition's packaging is designed to embody an iconic and eco-friendly image. Similar to the Aspire Vero's packaging, it selects 100% recyclable materials and features a reusable design, a reflection of Acer's adherence to environmental care and sustainable resources, as well as incorporating environmental awareness into the brand's image.
The packaging not only offers a pleasant unboxing experience, but also keeps the spirit of sustainability as it was designed for multipurpose functions. The inner packaging can be repurposed into a reusable storage carton and its inner partition can be folded into a triangular laptop stand. It also includes a 100% industrial recycled plastic (PIR) laptop sleeve and an additional 100% PIR plastic sheet that sits between the laptop's display and keys, providing a lighter and less bulky exterior. The material consumes less paper and helps save more than 15% of shelf and transportation space, resulting in more efficient shipping conditions and significantly lowers the product's carbon footprint.
Acer's Project Humanity Campaign and Documentary
Launched in 2017, Acer's Project Humanity campaign aims to encourage employees to propose and implement ideas that help drive positive changes and step up the fight against climate change. As seen in the film, Acer employees across the world and from different disciplines express their concern for the growing environment issues and the impact on the lives of succeeding generations. Acer has sought to inspire and instill a green mindset among its employees through activities and campaigns, and contribute to the company's goal to Recycle, Reduce, and Recreate.
Acer believes that real change will only come when every person makes a conscious choice to do their part for the environment, no matter how small. Their actions may instill a positive influence on their social circles and bring about significant change through collective actions. The culmination of these efforts is evident with the participation of over 5,000 employees from 40+ countries to initiate 350+ social-driven projects in 2 years.
Predator Gaming: "It Lies Within" Campaign
Predator Gaming's "It Lies Within" campaign is a digital-focused campaign which features a three-part miniseries, adopting a cinematic and character-driven approach. The story revolves around the story of a young girl who is trying to find her place in the world and is learning to embrace the extraordinary power that lies within her.
The global campaign aims to highlight the brand's goal of empowering its users to bring out their best in everything they do, while showcasing the innovation and power that lies within every Predator machine and peripheral. The unique storyline and eye-catching visuals help resonate with the audience and spread the campaign's message of how the Predator product line users the "power that empowers".
ConceptD 500/100's Film & Animation Design
The Concept D 500's film and animation concepts were inspired by the idea of Genesis creation, which symbolizes that all designers' ideas start from the most basic shapes and materials. Just as earth was created from nature, the ConceptD 500/100 creator PC empower designers with natural creative inspiration and the product to complete their designs with ease.
The video starts off by showing a giant rock in the center of nature, which symbolizes that a creator's inspiration comes naturally. The artists' creative inspiration, represented by the powerful amber lights, then carves the PC's sleek and elegant design. The "winds of nature" highlights the ConceptD's advanced cooling system. The video then showcases a finished modern design inspired from the ancient Greek temples, portraying the ConceptD 500/100's classic and long-lasting product design.

Airtel chief Sunil Bharti Mittal said that it does not matter if one's pocket is full or not as long as they persevere. He also acknowledged that Reliance Jio will always have more capital as they are a bigger company. He also spoke about Airtel’s competition with Adani Data Networks and said that he welcomes them but would prefer to serve them for their spectrum needs.
Speaking at the sidelines of Business Today’s India@100 Economy Summit, Mittal said, "In my 20's I was a young dreamer seeking funding. If you have big dreams, it does not matter if your pocket is full or not, chase them with perseverance."
A first-generation businessman, Sunil Bharti Mittal started his entrepreneurial journey in 1976 at the age of 18 years. But he would go on to establish Airtel in 1997 before it became India’s second-largest telecom network.
Speaking at the event, Mittal also acknowledged the competition Airtel faces from Reliance Jio.
“In Jio, we have a very dominant, strong and powerful competitor. It keeps us on our toes. For running a good enterprise, you need capital, talent and focus,” he said, further adding that they cannot match Jio’s capital. “They will always have much more capital as they are a larger industrial house. So, therefore you know your limitations compared to that,” said Mittal.
He also spoke about competition with Adani. “I would love to serve Adani’s needs. But if he wants to do it himself, and not take any assistance from us, I will be fine. But to my mind, we will be serving his ports, airports, and other industrial needs in a better way because I feel we can do it better,” Mittal said during the summit. Mittal cited the example of BMW-Vodafone tie-up in Germany to elucidate his point. He said despite BMW’s own spectrum, it has tied up with Vodafone for tech-related stack and services.
Despite acknowledging Airtel’s capital gap with Jio, Mittal said that the telecom segment is only for the players “who have deeper pockets”. “Telecom segment is not meant for the first-generation entrepreneurs as currently there are only two in the world - US’s Craig McCaw and the other one being Bharti Airtel. This is because the telecom business is only for individuals with a deep pocket,” he explained.

The US Open will have extra oomph this year as it appears to be marking the end of Serena Williams' legendary tennis career, or at least her Grand Slam career. Williams, who has won 23 Grand Slams titles dating to the 1998 Australian Open, will be 41 at the end of September.
Betting favorites at the US Open, according to Sports Interaction, are Iga Swiatek (+293), Simona Halep (+593) and Naomi Osaka (+1100). This will be Swiatek's fourth US Open appearance; she was eliminated in the fourth round in 2021. This year, she has won the French Open, defeating Coco Gauff, and reached the semifinals of the Australian Open.
The US Open will be held at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York City, Aug. 29 through Sep. 11. If you're looking to attend the event in person, here is what ticket prices are looking like for.

How much are US Open tickets in 2022?
Naturally, a big part of pricing will be when you're looking to go and who you want to watch. Round 1 pricing will ne less expensive than going to see the finals.
According to TicketSmarter, a Monday admission grounds pass for the first round starts at $146, while a ticket to the men's final at Arthur Ashe Stadium will start around $290.
At their most expensive, courtside tickets to the men's final could run up to $16,200, while courtside tickets to the women's final will run around $8,100. If Williams makes any kind of miracle run, those prices will, obviously, increase drastically.

‘Were their owners’ lives turned upside down too?’ What this tower of chairs says about Putin’s war
In 2003, between the months of September and November, 1,500 chairs were slotted and shoved into a giant stack that filled the gap between two buildings in Istanbul. This installation, which seemed both full of violence yet disquietingly empty, spoke of loss, mourning, absence and destruction. Although only now existing in photographs, and in the memory of those who witnessed it, the work makes us wonder where all these chairs came from, who they once belonged to, and what the lives of the people who sat on them were like, as they gathered with others and conversed. Were their lives turned upside down too?
Untitled, 2003, was by Doris Salcedo, the Colombian-born artist who grew up during the Colombian conflict, the battle between the government, crime syndicates, far-right and far-left groups that began in 1964. Salcedo’s work often focuses on the human experience of war, or the futile borders that keep our world divided. “I am a third world artist,” she once said, adding that she looked at the world “from the perspective of the victim, the defeated people”.
One can’t help but see this work as symbolic of the wrecking of a country that once thrived
By situating Untitled in the public realm, Salcedo opens up the work to interpretations from ordinary passersby, inviting them to tie this unusual sight to their own experiences. But she also presents the every day reality of living through a war: the abandoned possessions left after fleeing, the inescapability of it, the countless lives lost – a pervasive, neverendingness that seeps into daily existence. And what object could be more evocative of daily existence than a simple chair? A stack of 1,500 seems an enormous amount, yet it is nothing compared to the reality of a fleeing population. Untitled becomes a mass grave to the people who once existed – and flourished – in places that are now desolate.
Stacked in layers, the chairs come in all sorts of different shapes, sizes and colours, each one revealing something of its own distinct origins. It’s a point worth bearing in mind when we see huddled masses of refugees: that these are all individuals with separate experiences. Although installed by a Colombian artist and located in Istanbul, the work’s strength lies in the fact that its scope seems far wider and that it keeps speaking to us in new situations.
Given the date of its creation, it could be read as addressing the brutal wars of the early 2000s, while its towering, precariousness might suggest the mishandling by governments of their people, who wait in chairs the world over to be processed by uncaring officials. The overpowering sensation of absent bodies also chimes with the loss of life caused by Covid or, more recently, Putin’s destruction of Ukraine. It is the latter that feels most poignant at present.
As we passed the six-month mark of the invasion last week, on the 31st anniversary of Ukraine’s independence, one can’t help but see Untitled as symbolic of the wrecking of a country that once thrived, but which has been – and continues to be – torn apart by violence. Its very format also seems to echo the west’s conflicting media coverage of the war as interest and outrage slowly begin to dwindle. Constructed between two buildings on an unassuming street, the work is only visible from above or from the front. Walk to the side and suddenly it’s like Untitled never existed.
Full of contractions – fragile and strong, loud and quiet, visible and invisible – the work reminds us of those who are denied a voice, or whose voices go unheard, those being the people who often suffer the most. As Salcedo said of the work: “Woven within the fabric of the city … it just sits there quietly.”
Untitled, although initially appearing chaotic, with chairs that look as though they could crash out on to the street, is also full of order: these pieces of furniture rise perfectly in line with the surrounding buildings as if held there by an invisible wall. This opens up another dimension to war, something that Salcedo spoke of – the side “that is rational, it is a business … At the end it is chaotic, organic, painful. But it is thought out and planned with coldness.”
By transforming objects and places that are synonymous with our daily lives – from working to eating to socialising – Salcedo makes us realise on an individual level how close the lives we lead are to destruction and how we are affected by it. She takes a simple object, one whose sole function is to accommodate the human in comfort, multiplies it, then renders it defunct. The result, in the street of a city that straddles east and west, doesn’t just show us the absence of people, but also their disempowerment. “It’s not important to know the event,” Salcedo said. “I am not narrating a particular story. I am just addressing experiences.” | https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/were-owners-lives-turned-upside-080020139.html?src=rss | 2022-08-29T08:21:00Z | https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/were-owners-lives-turned-upside-080020139.html?src=rss | false | 2 |
Cornwall residents furious with TV show that helps find dream home in the county
CORNWALL residents were unhappy with a new Channel 4 programme which shows how estate agents help prospective buyers find their dream home in the county.
Martin Lewis recommends Lifetime ISA for first time buyers
Finding the Cornish Dream, which started its three-part series on Saturday, was "uncomfortable viewing" for some residents who claimed it was insensitive to broadcast a show when locals are being priced out of their towns in the county at the moment. Channel 4 built the programme as offering "access to Cornwall's flourishing property scene", stating "we follow the house-hunters and estate agents making Cornish property dreams a reality."
But as the cost of living crisis bites, salaries aren't matching inflation and thousands of families are either in emergency accommodation or on Cornwall Council's housing need list currently.
And one Twitter user, who says they will never have a deposit to buy a home, posted: "That programme actually hurt."
Mayor of Truro Steven Webb even questioned his own participation in the show and wrote: "Ok thinking did I do right thing be on #cornishdream".
Property prices in coastal areas, like Cornwall, skyrocketed following the coronavirus lockdowns, as people were fleeing cities and chasing a quieter lifestyle.
Sale enquiries for a property for sale in Cornwall increased by 67 per cent between 2019 and 2021, and it's meant the market has become even tougher for prospective first-time buyers, Cornwall Live says.
So others echoed the criticism on Twitter.
"I'm stuck in emergency accommodation which is a B+B in Helston. I'd love to even get a room in a house," one woman wrote.
"The most awful piece of work I’ve ever had the displeasure to watch." @Surfingsue continued: "Disgustingly insensitive. #CornishDream," another resident posted.
A further local tweeted: "Don’t know what the producers of #cornishdream thought they were doing, other than illustrate the horrendously-out-of-reach-for-locals prices these luxury houses were achieving. I was shocked."
A spokesperson for the programme said: "The series does not shy away from the issue of housing affordability and supply in Cornwall and features local people who share their concerns on issues such as second home ownership and the impact on local communities." | https://www.express.co.uk/showbiz/tv-radio/1661598/Finding-the-Cornish-Dream-house-Channel-4-property-TV-show | 2022-08-29T08:21:20Z | https://www.express.co.uk/showbiz/tv-radio/1661598/Finding-the-Cornish-Dream-house-Channel-4-property-TV-show | false | 1 |
For Stella Rimington, the author of Illegal Action, secret intelligence is second nature; for nearly 30 years, she worked for MI5, Britain's domestic intelligence agency, rising through the ranks to become the first woman appointed director general.
Now retired from spy work, Rimington has created Liz Carlyle, a fictional intelligence officer in her mid 30s who works for MI5. Liz is a cool customer, who brings a combination of analytical intelligence and female intuition to a profession dominated by men. If this sounds familiar, it's because, as the author admits, some of her fiction is inspired by reality.
"When I first joined MI5, it was a male-dominated world," says Rimington. "I take some pleasure, I must say, in putting things in Liz's mouth that I might quite have liked to have said — but probably never did — when I was in her position."
Rimington says that when she joined MI5, women were "only regarded as suitable to do the paperwork."
"We had to fight quite hard to be let into the shop. And then gradually the world changed," she remembers. "I was always determined that I wanted to do the next job up, and that was how I dealt with it."
Illegal Action is Rimington's third book featuring Liz Carlyle. The story revolves around a scheme by the Russian government to silence a wealthy oligarch living in London. It's a plot that could have been ripped from the headlines; when Rimington was working on the book, Alexander Litvinenko, a former KGB officer and dissident living in London, was murdered after someone poisoned his tea — a crime that Litvinenko suspected his former KGB colleagues of committing.
"I felt that fact had caught up with ficiton when that happened," Rimington says of Litvinenko's poisoning.
The collision of fact and fiction is something that Rimington is well aware of — especially when it comes to Great Britian's Official Secrets Act.
"I still have to submit my fiction for clearance by my former colleagues to make sure that I haven't inadvertently revealed something damaging," she says, adding that she avoids problems by focusing her books on the interplay of people rather than the technical details of the spy business.
A notable aspect of Britain's intelligence efforts that Rimington does reveal in her novel is the close cooperation between local police and the intelligence agencies — something that doesn't aways happen in the U.S.
"It is an accurate representation of how things go on in the U.K.," says Rimington. "Both our foreign intelligence service, MI6, and MI5 — which is the domestic service — and the police all work extremely closely together. And now they have a sort of joint unit working together so that the intelligence can be shared, and action on the street can be taken."

Apache Junction pool slide area to be upgraded
The top deck of the slide and the slide stairs at the city of Apache Junction’s community pool are to be replaced at a cost of more than $100,000.
The city council voted unanimously Aug. 16 on a consent agenda with other items to approve a contract with Shasta Industries Inc. for the replacement of the Superstition Shadows Aquatic Center pool slide deck in an amount not to exceed $109,000.
The top slide deck and the stair treads will be replaced at the aquatic center, 1091 W. Southern Ave., Parks and Recreation Director Liz Langenbach said to the council at its Aug. 2 meeting.
Liz Langenbach“Our pool slide at the aquatics center is 20 years old; that’s about how long ago we built that renovation to the zero-depth play pool area,” she said. “We are recommending that a contract be given to Shasta, who had a lot of design and is much of the pool whenever it was renovated.”
The city will use cooperative city of Scottsdale job order contract No. 2018-136-COS-A2, fulfilling procurement and open market procedures, Langenbach wrote in a memo to the council.
The contract term is Aug. 16, 2022-April 30, 2023, according to an agreement for materials and labor between the city and Shasta Industries Inc.

The show was remarkable for both Snoop and Eminem, as it was their first stage performance in almost a decade. Eminem last performed on VMA stage in 2010, meanwhile, Snoop performed in 2005.
What a mind-blowing performance! Two legends of the musical world Eminem and Snoop Dog gave a super high performance at MTV VMAs.
Eminem and Snoop Dogg brought metaverse to the VMA stage as they gave the performance on their recent track 'From the D 2 The LBC' from Eminems' album, 'Curtain Call 2'.
At the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, the rappers gave a multiverse performance that began showing both the rappers sitting on the black couch before Eminem and Snoop got high with the extra large cannabis joint that 'Deep Cover' rapper was pretending to be smoking.

TRIGGER WARNING: This article contains potentially distressing materials.
A 10-year-old boy has gone missing in Rizal municipality after being dragged into the water by a crocodile while fishing with three other friends near a river inlet in Barangay Canipaan on Sunday morning.
According to Jed Tarbok, a local resident, the boy was attacked by a crocodile in knee-deep water around 9 a.m. on August 28.
“Bale nagkakawil lang po ang bata kasama ng mga kaibigan niya. Siya ay nakapatong sa bangka na nasa pampang. Pauwi na sila, then pagbaba niya lampas tuhod [na tubig,] doon na siya sinunggaban ng buwaya at hinila sa malalim na part ng ilog,” pahayag ni Tarbok.
Tarbok claimed that the wildlife lingered long in the river while the boy was in its mouth. When the water receded due to low tide around 4 to 5 p.m., the crocodile dragged the boy away from the bank of the river.
He also said that locals don’t believe it to be a saltwater crocodile because of its black color and the fact that it didn’t take the boy far enough away from the river.
“Di po yon saltwater crocodile, kasi kulay itim ang buwaya kaya siya ay nabubuhay lang sa ilog at sa looban ng ilog n’ya lang dinala ang bata from bukana,” dagdag nito.
“May tatlong tao na ang nabiktima, dalawa [na] ang namatay. Ang isa ay nabitawan dahil may dala itong itak pero nagkaroon yon ng sugat sa kanyang tagiliran,” Tarbok narrated further.
The family of the boy is hoping that rescuers might still be able to find his body with the help of the Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (MDRRMO) of Rizal.
Bodjie Lorenzo, chief of the MDRRMO in the town, said they are on their way back to Canipaan to look for the boy’s body to return him to his family.
“On the way kami pabalik doon, para hanapin yong bata kasama ko yong mga taga Palawan Council for Sustainable Development Staff (PCSDS), Philippine Coast Guard (PCG), at Army. Nangangawil daw sila, pagkatapos mangawil, naligo sila kaya naatake ang bata,” he confirmed to Palawan News this morning.
He said this is the first attack in their record this year in Canipaan. “Mas marami pa ang population ng buwaya kaysa sa mga nakatirang tao doon. Ngayon, kung tama ang natatandaan ko, unang attack ito. Pero marami na nang mga nakalipas na taon.”
He also said that Rizal Mayor Norman Ong has directed him and the Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Office (MENRO) to revive their safety awareness campaign in Canipaan in order to keep people safe from crocodile attacks. | https://palawan-news.com/10-year-old-boy-missing-after-crocodile-attack-in-river-southern-palawan/ | 2022-08-29T08:51:08Z | https://palawan-news.com/10-year-old-boy-missing-after-crocodile-attack-in-river-southern-palawan/ | false | 1 |

New Delhi, May 24 A master of metaphors and similes with a brain so sharp that every word was used for a reason, Alyque Padamsee seamlessly straddled the diverse worlds of advertising and theatre, creating iconic campaigns as the Liril girl, Surfs Lalitaji, the MRF Muscle Man, and the unforgettable ‘Hamara Bajaj. His 77 stage productions such as "Evita", "Jesus Christ Superstar" and "Tughlaq" stormed the box office, while his portrayal of Muhammad Ali Jinnah in the Oscar-winning movie ‘Gandhi was well appreciated far and wide.
"With someone like Alyque, their brain is so sharp that every word used is used for a reason. He was the master of metaphors and similes. He loved proverbs. And of course he could quote from any of the 77 plays that he had staged, and adverts devised," Vandana Saxena Poria, the co-author of "Let Me Hijack Your Mind–Restart Your Life With Freedom" Padamsee's "parting shot" to the world

Fuel leak interrupts launch countdown of NASA moon rocket
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - A fuel leak interrupted NASA’s launch countdown for its new moon rocket early Monday, reappearing in the same place that saw seepage during a dress rehearsal back in the spring.
Launch controllers halted the tanking operation, which already was running an hour late because of thunderstorms offshore. They slowly resumed the process to confirm that it was, indeed, a hydrogen fuel leak and not faulty sensors, but alarms forced another temporary pause as precious minutes in the countdown ticked away.
The 322-foot (98-meter) rocket is the most powerful ever built my NASA, out-muscling even the Saturn V that carried astronauts to the moon a half-century ago.
This test flight, if successful, would put a crew capsule into lunar orbit for the first time in 50 years.
No astronauts were inside the Orion capsule atop the rocket at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. Instead, three test dummies were strapped in for the lunar-orbiting mission, expected to last six weeks.
Even with no one on board, thousands of people jammed the coast to see the Space Launch System, or SLS, rocket soar. Vice President Kamala Harris flew into Orlando with her husband, but had yet to make the hourlong drive to Cape Canaveral for the planned liftoff.
The next launch attempt wouldn’t be until Friday at the earliest.
Hydrogen fuel leaks marred NASA’s countdown test back in April, prompting a slew of repairs. The demo was repeated with more success in June, but that, too, experienced some leakage. Managers said they would not know for certain whether the fixes were good until attempting to load the rocket’s tanks with nearly 1 million gallons of super-cold fuel on Monday.
Launch director Charlie Blackwell-Thompson and her team also had to deal with a communication issue involving the Orion capsule.
Engineers scrambled to understand an 11-minute delay in the communication lines between Launch Control and Orion that cropped up late Sunday. Although the problem had cleared by Monday morning, NASA needed to know why it occurred before committing to launch.
This first flight of NASA’s 21st-century moon-exploration program, named Artemis after Apollo’s mythological twin sister, is years overdue. Repeated delays have led to billions in budget overruns; this demo alone costs $4.1 billion.
Assuming the test goes well, astronauts would climb aboard for the second flight and fly around the moon and back as soon as 2024. A two-person lunar landing could follow by the end of 2025. NASA is targeting the moon’s south pole.
During Apollo, 12 astronauts landed on the moon from 1969 through 1972, with stays of no more than a few days. NASA is looking to establish a lunar base during Artemis, with astronauts rotating in and out for weeks at a time. The next step would be Mars, possibly in the late 2030s or early 2040s.

Actress Julianne Moore has played a porn star and a daring, 1950s housewife; she has hunted Hannibal Lecter and has been hunted by dinosaurs.
Now, Moore plays a seeing woman in a sightless world in Blindness, the film adaptation of Jose Saramago's apocalyptic novel about an epidemic that suddenly robs whole cities of sight.
Moore plays a doctor's wife who, as the mysterious "White Sickness" spreads, finds that she is immune to the contagion. She pretends to be blind to stay with her stricken husband (Mark Ruffalo) when he's quarantined with other affected victims.
Moore talks with Melissa Block about her role in Blindness and about working with director Fernando Meirelles (The Constant Gardener and City of God).
'Real Tragedy'
The doctor (Ruffalo) and his wife (Moore) are sent to an abandoned mental asylum to be quarantined. The space is filthy, violent, crowded and depraved; as the movie progresses, it becomes clear that no one will come to the aid of the victims.
Moore's character finally breaks down when her husband simply asks her what time it is, and she realizes she has forgotten to wind her watch.
"It's really about a lack of control," Moore says. "It's about the little things ... That's the stuff that we grieve over."
Moore says she loves these moments of "real tragedy" in literature and film — and modestly wonders whether she did justice to the scene as it was originally laid out in Saramago's book.
Fade To White
The blindness epidemic does not pitch the world into darkness, but rather into an eerie white blankness. The film was shot with an overexposed, milky quality, which Moore says she did not know about until she saw the footage cut together.
The film's editing, mixing and sound is the "director's medium," she says — that's the director's "prerogative." What Moore says she does need to know during filming is exactly how her shots will be framed.
"I think there's this misnomer about acting sometimes," she says, "that [actors are] just out there just feeling stuff, and the camera's going to pick up what we're feeling ... I need to have an awareness of where the story is being told."
Moore often asks to see storyboards or shot lists, and pays careful attention to camera angles. She says the position of the camera tells part of the story.
"Fernando is eloquent with his camera," Moore says. "His shots are very, very emotional, the way they're framed. There's intention in every shot."
An Atypical Heroine
Moore is known for playing difficult, nuanced roles — a 1950s housewife whose perfect world crumbles around her in Far From Heaven; a militant activist in the dystopian, infertile world of Children of Men; and a troubled woman struck by Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway in The Hours.
Her role in Blindness is similarly complex. She is set apart as a leader only by her immunity to the epidemic. She slowly comes to embrace her role as a heroine, leading those who cannot see.
"I'm not playing the girl in the action movie," Moore says. "At every stage in your career, there's a time to play a certain kind of role."

PROVO, Utah (AP) — BYU banned a fan who yelled a racial slur at a Black player on the Duke volleyball team during a match Friday night, the university said in a statement Saturday.
The fan was sitting in the BYU student section but was not a student, and has been banned from all athletic venues on campus, the statement said.
“We will not tolerate behavior of this kind. Specifically, the use of a racial slur at any of our athletic events is absolutely unacceptable and BYU Athletics holds a zero-tolerance approach to this behavior,” the statement said. “We wholeheartedly apologize to Duke University and especially its student-athlete competing last night for what they experienced. We want BYU athletic events to provide a safe environment for all, and there is no place for behaviors like this in our venues.”
The player, Rachel Richardson, who is the only Black starter on the team, was called a racial slur “every time she served,” Richardson's godmother, Lesa Pamplin, said in a tweet.
“For far too long, individuals have been subjected to racist slurs, taunts, and threats like the unfortunate incident that happened to my goddaughter, Rachel Richardson, at BYU. It is unfortunate that this incident has only received attention after I tweeted about it,” Pamplin, a candidate for circuit court judge in Fort Worth, Texas, said in an emailed statement.
“Every American should be enraged that a young lady was subjected to hateful, demeaning language, and we should be even more outraged that it took a tweet from me in Tarrant County, Texas, to bring this incident to light,” the statement continued.
Pamplin tweeted that Richardson “was threatened by a white male that told her to watch her back going to the team bus. A police officer had to be put by their bench.”
Richardson is a 19-year-old sophomore from Ellicott City, Maryland.
Duke said its match Saturday against Rider was moved from BYU's Smith Fieldhouse to a different venue in Provo.
“First and foremost, our priority is the well-being of Duke student-athletes,” Duke athletic director Nina King said in a statement. “They should always have the opportunity to compete in an inclusive, anti-racist environment which promotes equality and fair play. Following extremely unfortunate circumstances at Friday night’s match at BYU, we are compelled to shift today’s match against Rider to a different location to afford both teams the safest atmosphere for competition.”
Duke and BYU are playing in a four-team, round-robin invitational along with Rider and Washington State. BYU beat Duke 3-1 on Friday. | https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4640055 | 2022-08-29T09:10:12Z | https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4640055 | false | 30 |

CLEVELAND (AP) — Justin Fields had a nightmarish visit to Cleveland as a rookie.
This one couldn't have gone much better.
Fields threw three touchdown passes in the first half, leading the Chicago Bears to a 21-20 win in their exhibition finale over the Browns, who got their first in-game look at substitute starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett on Saturday night.
Last season, Fields was sacked nine times — 4 1/2 by All-Pro Myles Garrett — and the Bears (3-0) were throttled by the Browns in a 26-6 blowout at FirstEnergy Stadium. Chicago was held to just 1 net yard in what was one of many rough outings for Fields.
“For sure,” Fields said when asked if he reflected on that Sept. 26 matchup. "I was of course thinking about that and glad 95 (Garrett) wasn’t playing today.”
With the Browns resting Garrett, Pro Bowl cornerback Denzel Ward and a few other first-teamers, Fields fired a 22-yard TD pass to tight end Ryan Griffin in the first quarter and then connected with receiver Dante Pettis and tight end Cole Kmet on scoring plays in the second.
Fields looked comfortable and composed while finishing 14 of 16 for 156 yards. He's in a new system under first-year coach Matt Ebeflus, and Fields said the performance by Chicago's starting offense could be a sign of things to come.
“Definitely a turning point," he said. "We can build on it and next week we can get better.”
Cleveland's backups rallied in the second half with quarterback Josh Rosen's TD sneak pulling the Browns (1-2) within a point. However, Rosen's 2-point pass attempt to receiver Javon Wims was incomplete with 2:31 left.
This was Brissett's first preseason action for the Browns, who are hoping the 29-year-old veteran can keep them in contention until December while Deshaun Watson serves his 11-game NFL suspension.
Brissett had some positive moments — he didn't have running backs Nick Chubb, Kareem Hunt, or Pro Bowl guard Joel Bitonio — while playing six series.
He completed 13 of 23 passes for 109 yards with an interception, a decent performance but maybe not good enough to end speculation that the Browns will look for outside help before the season starts.
“I thought today was a step in the right direction,” Brissett said. “Obviously we’ve got more time coming up in the next two weeks. But today was definitely a good steppingstone, getting in and out of the huddle, calling plays, hearing it from (coach) Kevin (Stefanski). I thought today was good.”
Brissett is slated to play until at least December while Watson, who signed a $230 million contract with the Browns in March, serves his suspension for violating the league's person conduct policy.
Watson was accused of sexual misconduct and harassment by two dozen women during massage therapy appointments while with Houston. The three-time Pro Bowler begins his ban Tuesday.
Brissett's first pass was on target, but slipped through the hands of second-year wide receiver Anthony Schwartz, who had another drop and was booed loudly. He's been inconsistent all summer, but isn't in jeopardy of getting cut.
“We’ve talked about Anthony,” Stefanski said. “Anthony’s spoken to you guys. He’s very accountable. So I know he wants to be better. I know he will work very hard.”
SECOND HELPING
Browns backup QB Joshua Dobbs had another solid outing.
He threw a 6-yard TD pass to diving tight end Miller Forristall and followed it by leaping at the pylon for a 2-point conversion.
LEG UP
Browns rookie kicker Cade York put on a show in warmups, making field goals of 70 and 60 yards.
The fourth-round pick from LSU carried it over to the game, converting kicks of 57 and 46 yards while pushing a 58-yarder left.
“It really hasn’t felt anything different since college, just going out there and kicking the ball,” York said. “I would have liked to see the one go through for the first kick. But other than that, I’ve gotten reps, gotten out there, gotten comfortable.”
RESTING REGULARS
Garrett and Ward were joined on Cleveland's sideline by defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, who was not in uniform after being excused from a practice earlier in the week.
Bears linebacker Roquan Smith was supposed to play, but was kept out after experiencing tightness during warmups. Smith missed Chicago's first two games while staging a contract “hold in.”
Eberflus didn't specify the location of Smith's tightness and said keeping him out was “a group decision.”
INJURIES

Americans are still trying to understand all the repercussions of the financial crisis.
But one insider, Lawrence G. McDonald, tells NPR's Steve Inskeep that it takes just one phrase to understand the failure of Lehman Brothers: "24,992 people striving hard, making money, and about eight guys losing it."
For four years, McDonald served as vice president of distressed debt and convertible securities trading at Lehman, and he has a new book that further explores what happened, A Colossal Failure of Common Sense: The Inside Story of the Collapse of Lehman Brothers.
While researching the book, McDonald interviewed more than 150 people who worked for Lehman. He says that the company "was never, never rotten at the core. That's where all the beauty was. This place was rotten at the head."
The leadership of Lehman worked on the 31st floor, which McDonald characterizes as "one of the most mysterious places on Wall Street."
Richard Fuld, CEO of Lehman, had his office there, but McDonald never met him and neither did most of his colleagues — even at the highest levels of the company. Even on the company's best days, McDonald says, Fuld never appeared on the trading floor to congratulate Lehman Brothers employees.
"Mr. Fuld surrounded himself with every type of yes-man and woman you could possibly get. By the time 2007 rolled around, he had a real steamroller," McDonald says. "They increased the balance sheet between 2007 and 2008 by over $120 billion."
So as the crisis was getting worse, McDonald says, Lehman was taking on more debt to pay high-level employees. "They were using leverage to increase the bonus pool and increase the compensation flow," to the point where if you made it to the 31st floor, it was like "hitting the New York lottery."
And it wasn't just Fuld, says McDonald. "He had a team of people that were really pressing on the gas pedal."
The moment that sealed Lehman's fate, says McDonald, is when Fuld met with then-Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson in the spring of 2008.
Twist Of Fate At Treasury
Fuld came out of the meeting and "tried to put the Lehman staff at ease. He sent an e-mail that said, "We have huge brand at Treasury" — meaning that Lehman had a lot of respect there.
According to McDonald's research, the reality is that it was a tense meeting. According to those in attendance, Fuld told Paulson, "I've been in my seat a lot longer than you were at yours at Goldman Sachs. Don't tell me how to do things. I'll do things at my speed."
McDonald believes that was the start of a lot of problems. Lehman wasn't trying to sell quickly enough.
McDonald also says the U.S. should have rescued Lehman. Treasury should have replaced Fuld and his management team, and then forced another bank to shepherd it through a "controlled unwind, instead of having nasty, horrific selling of assets."
Finally, McDonald says, "The thing that really bothers me is that you allow Lehman to fail, but that hurts your bailing out Merrill and AIG." Allowing Lehman to fail, McDonald adds, cost the American taxpayers somewhere between $40 billion and $70 billion.

Each year, around 4,000 to more than 6,000 foreign students are admitted to Vietnamese educational institutions on average, said the ministry.
The figure fell to 3,000 in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Most of the students either study at universities or chose short-term courses. A quite modest number of foreign students choose postgraduate programmes (Master’s or PhD).
Lao and Cambodian students mainly do PhD courses, while some students from China, the Republic of Korea and Japan prefer majoring in Vietnam studies.
Particularly, the number of students from Laos and Cambodia accounted for nearly 80% of the total number of foreign arrivals.
The number of students from China, France, the Republic of Korea, and Japan has increased considerably in recent times thanks to the growing economic ties between Vietnam and those countries.
Specifically, the Hanoi-based Vietnam National University took the lead in admissions of foreign students who hailed from 74 countries and territories worldwide.
It is followed by the Vietnam National University - HCM City (47), Hanoi University (44), Hue University (34), Thai Nguyen (29), and Da Nang (13).
A favourite destination
Home to a diverse culture, cordial citizens, and a quality education environment, Vietnam has emerged as a favourite destination for students across the globe.
Some 20,000 foreign students are now studying in Vietnam, primarily in graduate and post-graduate studies.
Improving the quality of tertiary education is among the top policies of Vietnam to fulfill human resources demand, with due attention being paid to international integration.
Deputy Minister of Education and Training Nguyen Van Phuc urged Vietnamese universities to improve the quality of their programmes and beef up international cooperation to attract more foreign students.
He asked the Ministry of Education and Training to enhance the regulatory framework of the training and management of foreign students in Vietnam.
He also expected the ministry and Vietnamese universities to ramp up the signing of international agreements for student exchange to welcome more foreigners to study in the country./. | https://vietnam.vnanet.vn/english/tin-van/more-than-45000-foreign-students-study-in-vietnam-in-2016-2021-306931.html | 2022-08-29T09:22:02Z | https://vietnam.vnanet.vn/english/tin-van/more-than-45000-foreign-students-study-in-vietnam-in-2016-2021-306931.html | false | 2 |

KYIV (Reuters) - Svitlana tears up thinking of the bombing that leveled her son Illia's school in Lysychansk, a city in the eastern Ukrainian region of Luhansk now occupied by Russian forces, but she is determined to ensure the eighth-grader continues his studies.
"My son's school is not there anymore. It was bombed completely - and it can never be restored," she said, during a visit to Illia's new school in Irpin, near Kyiv, where workers are replacing windows blown out during a Russian artillery attack before school starts on Sept. 1.
"I think we will have a better life here," said Svitlana, who asked that her surname not be used. "The most important thing is for our children to learn."
Across Ukraine, authorities are building bomb shelters and repairing thousands of buildings damaged in shelling by Russian forces before the country's nearly 6 million school-aged children return to school in September - online or in person.
Resuming school is a top priority for the government given the war's long-term social and economic impact on the country, its children and the willingness of those who fled to return.
"The Russian aggression will have huge consequences for the Ukrainian educational system," said Ivan Prymachenko, co-founder of Prometheus, the largest Ukrainian online learning platform.
Nearly 2,300 educational institutions were shelled or bombed since the Russian invasion began on Feb. 24, and 286 were completely destroyed, according to Ukraine's Ministry of Education and Science. More than 350 children have died and 586 were wounded during what Russia calls a "special military operation," U.N. data show. The total could be much higher.
Officials are keen to resume education, in part to enable women to return to work. But assessing about 80% of Ukraine's 26,000 educational facilities, from preschools to universities, the interior ministry found only 41% have the bomb shelters or protective structures needed for in-person instruction.
That's a 400% rise from a few months ago and more shelters could still be completed in the next weeks. But availability is low near the front: In the Mykolaiv region where Russian forces recently stepped up shelling, only 16% of schools have shelters in place.
As a result, millions of children and youth will be forced to continue learning remotely, compounding problems already evident after two years of COVID-19 related closures, including high dropout rates among teenagers, said Sonia Khush, Ukraine country director for Save the Children.
NO 'WIN-WIN'
"There is no win-win in this situation," says Oleksii Riabchyn, ex-deputy energy minister and adviser to the CEO of state-energy company Naftogaz.
Riabchyn fled to Lviv in western Ukraine with his family on the day of the invasion, but has since come back to Kyiv with his wife. They are now agonizing over whether to bring their children back to Kyiv, where they would have to run 15 minutes to the subway station in the event of an attack.
Riabchyn hopes to at least bring his six-year-old son to Kyiv for traditional celebrations ahead of starting first grade.
"We face a matrix of options – and all of them are bad. This is the compromise," he said.
Learning interruptions have long-term consequences, including lower income later in life. The World Bank in February estimated that globally a 7-month absence from schools due to COVID-related closures would increase the share of students in "learning poverty" to around 70% unless swift action was taken.
In Ukraine, war exacerbates these problems.
“If kids don't get educated … that is going to have a permanent lasting legacy, and the recovery will be longer, harder and more expensive,” said Arup Banerji, World Bank regional country director for eastern Europe.
Ukraine has excellent internet access, but educational authorities - especially in frontline areas - are asking for more laptops and other devices, Khush said.
Even if schools open in person, pupils will need additional support to adjust while some may have to adopt split shifts.
The Irpin school's bomb shelter can house 300 children, a fraction of its 2,000 pupils, school director Ivan Ptashnyk told Reuters.
Learning gaps caused by the war are a "tragedy for Ukraine," said Volodymyr Melnyk, president of Lviv National University. The university is creating programs to help teachers work better online while thousands of students volunteer to help refugees.
Former Ukrainian finance minister Natalie Jaresko said restoring education will encourage the return of millions of women and children who fled to Europe after the war began.
"That's the future labour force - it’s the future of the nation, in effect," Jaresko told Reuters.
TRAUMA
Addressing war trauma will also be a big challenge.
Clinical pyschologist Olena Romanova works with displaced children and adults in Lviv, using colorful, stuffed animals to help children work through memories of death and destruction.
"Whatever is going on, we need to laugh," said Romanova. "A lot of (their) memories would be about this awful war ... (but) we try to make their life more positive."
Ukrainian non-governmental organization BASE UA uses arts including theater to help displaced teens process war memories.
Vika Okhrymenko, 14, who fled from Russian-occupied Oleshky, said the group's summer camp in the Carpathian Mountains offered her respite from the realities of conflict, but she misses her home.
"I feel like I’ve lost a big part of communication with my classmates," she said. "I’d like to come back and see them in school, learn, and for everything to go back to normal."

Income from online games: CBDT asks people to pay tax, file ITR-U
It must be noted that individuals who will be filing ITR-U will have to state reasons for updating the income. These may include - return previously not filed or income not reported correctly, wrong heads of income chosen or reduction of carried forward loss. The period for filing is within two years after the end of the relevant AY.

New Delhi: If you are amongst the people who have generated some income from playing online games in the previous financial year, then you will have to pay taxes and file an updated ITR (i.e., ITR-U) for the same. The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) is asking such winners to file the updated return and pay taxes on the online winnings accordingly.
ITR-U could be utilised by those categories of taxpayers who have income from online games, lotteries and betting etc. "This is a provision for them to come forward and pay taxes rather than face the consequences of penalty or any other legal action under the income tax law," the CBDT chairman Nitin Gupta said in an interview with PTI.
ITR-U
Short for income tax return – updated, ITR-U was announced by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in her Budget 2022 speech. It is filed under section 139(8A) of the Income-tax Act, 1961. The update return option was brought in to make it easier for taxpayers to correct mistakes related to estimating their incomes on which tax is payable.
It must be noted that individuals who will be filing ITR-U will have to state reasons for updating the income. These may include - return previously not filed or income not reported correctly, wrong heads of income chosen or reduction of carried forward loss.
In the Form ITR-U, the assessee needs to disclose only the amount of additional income, under the prescribed income heads, on which additional tax is required to be paid. No detailed income break-up needs to be disclosed.

The period for filing of ITR-U is within two years after the end of the relevant assessment year. So, in the current financial year 2022-23, a person can file an updated return for AY 2020-21 and AY 2021-22. ITR-U provides an opportunity for taxpayers to include any income they forget to pay tax on while filing their ITR.
Note: Additional tax is payable at 25 per cent to 50 per cent on the additional income.
Meanwhile, PTI reported that the income tax department has collected around Rs 28 crore in taxes after about 1 lakh returns were filed by taxpayers under the newly introduced return filing form called ITR-U.

A forthcoming book by journalists Michael Isikoff and David Corn offers an answer to a question that has bedeviled Washington for two years: Who told columnist Robert Novak that the wife of Joseph Wilson was a covert CIA agent?
In Hubris, Isikoff and Corn suggest that Richard Armitage, Deputy Secretary of State in 2003, may be the missing link in the story that has been called "Plamegate." Said to be a notorious gossip, Armitage told several reporters about Valerie Plame's role with the CIA -- but he reportedly didn't realize for several months that he was the source described in one of their articles.
The story stems from a mission that sent Joseph Wilson, a former U.S. ambassador, to investigate claims that Iraq was procuring uranium in West Africa. Wilson returned unconvinced -- and eventually went public with his skepticism about the Bush administration's claims about Iraq's nuclear ambitions.
Robert Novak then printed a piece in which he identified Wilson's wife as a CIA worker -- in fact, her job at the time was at the classified level. Novak has written of learning about Wilson's wife from someone who was not "a partisan gunslinger."
Robert Siegel talks with Michael Isikoff, who writes for Newsweek. Corn is the Washington editor at The Nation.

“Stranger Things” Star Noah Schnapp Has Been Working As A Lifeguard Over The Summer Ahead Of Starting College Because Having A Normal Life Keeps Him "Grounded"
Noah, 17, has an estimated net worth of $4 million after being cast in Stranger Things at the age of 11.
Noah Schnapp was just 11 years old when he was catapulted to fame after landing the role of Will Byers in the Netflix series Stranger Things.
Over the years, his public profile has steadily grown and he now has over 27 million Instagram followers as the hugely popular show heads into its fifth and final season.
Now 17, Noah is one of the world’s most recognizable young actors, and he regularly makes news headlines thanks to his celebrity status.
For example, in July he sent pop culture fans into meltdown when he leaked Doja Cat’s private Instagram DMs asking him about his Stranger Things’ costar Joseph Quinn.
Prior to that, Noah was forced to respond after he was mistakenly accused of saying a racist slur in a video of him singing in a car, and he has also found himself at the center of queerbaiting discourse in recent months related to his Netflix character.
Despite this, the child actor has always maintained an air of normality, and his followers are often left bewildered by consistent accidental reminders that he is actually just a regular teenager.
Earlier this month, people were surprised to see Noah unleash his inner fanboy when they spotted him in an Instagram Live that was being hosted by Love Island UK stars Luca Bish and Jacques O’Neill.
After joining the chat, Noah commented: “I LOVE U,” having previously admitted to being obsessed with the British reality show.
And in 2018, Noah appeared to forget who he was entirely when he joined his costar Millie Bobby Brown’s Instagram Live and immediately started to complain about his mom.
“Oh my god, Millie. My mom has been texting me and she was like: ‘I’m so done with you, I’ve lost all my patience. I’m taking away your laptop and your phone,’” he vented.
Millie quickly reminded him that thousands of people were watching as she exclaimed: “Noah, we’re on live!” which prompted him to sheepishly say: “Oh, I forgot, hi everyone,” before leaving the livestream.
And in a new interview with Flaunt magazine, Noah has explained that maintaining a normal life outside of Stranger Things is a key component in keeping him “grounded” — and it doesn’t end at his mom dishing out punishments.
In fact, even though he has an estimated net worth of $4 million, the teen star has revealed that he took on a job as a lifeguard over the summer.
“It’s kind of a ‘just for fun thing,’” he said of his part-time gig. “I’ve kind of grown up with a normal life and normal friends and stuff outside of Stranger Things, so it’s kind of kept me grounded.”
And, just like those of millions of other high school graduates, Noah’s summer job is actually just a precursor to college, which he will begin this fall.
In December, the star shared an emotional video that saw him jumping for joy with his parents and twin sister after he received an acceptance letter from the University of Pennsylvania — and despite his wealth and fame, Noah plans to share a dorm, eat in the dining hall, and use the communal showers like every other first-year student.
Noah told Flaunt that he originally considered studying acting at school, but instead he is attending the private Ivy League’s business school.
“Acting was just kind of repetitive, and I wanted to try something new,” he explained. “Millie [Bobby Brown] is doing the same thing with her schooling — she’s kind of learning about other things. I thought it would make more sense to do something different. And business was a pretty clear next thing for me.”
Fans have heaped praise on both actors for pursuing further education despite their success in the acting world, and many have also taken to social media to share their surprise at Noah taking on a summer job.
“Imagine pulling up to the pool and the lifeguard is noah fucking schnapp,” one person tweeted. Another wrote: “Noah schnapp having a summer job as a lifeguard is the most iconic thing ever im sorry.”
Someone else said: “Noah schnapp being a lifeguard at his local pool is so funny like good for him because he seems to be living as much as a normal life as he can but imagine drowning and will byers is the one pulling you out of the water and giving you cpr.”
Another tweet read: “Its really cool to see that noah schnapp is just living a normal teen life like having a regular job an going to college in the fall and all that. good for him!”
Although Season 4 of Stranger Things has only just aired, it is believed that filming for the fifth season will begin next year, and Noah admitted that it was “very crazy” for him to think about the show coming to an end.
“Will is like my baby,” he told Flaunt. “I’ve curated and built this character for years, and it’s very crazy to think that it will be over, before I knew it and that’s it.”
“But, it’s such a big franchise that it’s never really going to be over,” Noah went on to tease. “There will always be spin-offs and things to come. I don’t know, I’ll do movies with Millie and whatnot in the future. There’s always more to look forward to.” | https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/stephaniesoteriou/stranger-things-noah-schnapp-working-lifeguard-college | 2022-08-29T09:50:08Z | https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/stephaniesoteriou/stranger-things-noah-schnapp-working-lifeguard-college | false | 1 |

Thailand has been a popular expatriate destination for investment and retirement for decades, but foreign land ownership has long been restricted.
Foreigners can own no more than 49% of any condominium development and are restricted from owning most freehold estates. Yet Thailand is keen to attract wealthy international investors — particularly those from China.
Thailand’s now-suspended Prime Minister Prayut Chan-ocha proposed a policy that would allow foreigners to own land for residential use on July 15, 2022. Thai officials claim this will boost the economy by luring wealthy foreigners to spend and invest in the country.
Investing 40 million baht (US$1.1 million) in Thai property, securities or funds for a period of at least three years is now one of many preconditions for foreign nationals to own up to one rai (approximately 1,600 square meters) of land beginning in September 2022.
Still, there are other ways foreigners can acquire rights to land — including through the ownership of companies, long-term leases and other investment schemes available in Special Economic Zones (SEZs) set up by the Thai government.
When deciding to invest in Thai property, most foreigners invest through companies — allowing a Thai national to arbitrate the property through a business committee on their behalf. Foreign investors can also purchase property through a tax-free scheme set up by the Board of Investment (BOI) agency administered by the Thai government.
Thailand’s real estate market has recently been characterized by an oversupply of flats. There were over 90 thousand unsold units of condominiums in the Bangkok Metropolitan Region as of 2020.
By enabling foreign investment, the Thai government aims to provide liquidity to the real estate market by enabling a pool of wealthy investors to invest, boosting the Thai economy and increasing land tax revenue.
As a popular tourism destination and as part of the Eastern Economic Corridor, many investors from China have plowed into Thai property — so much so that half of all foreign-owned condominiums in Pattaya city, one of the country’s tourist destinations, are under Chinese proprietorship.
While deep-pocketed Chinese homebuyers are seen as saviors of Thailand’s struggling real estate sector, some are disliked for spending their money lavishly and buying property through fake legal partnerships. Some foreign investors even register under a Thai limited company or use a particular leasing policy to engage in money laundering.
Selling land to foreign nationals and having them use the land for residential purposes may worsen land inequality in Thailand. The additional taxes levied to capture the rent from foreign homebuyers will prove another barrier to entry for locals who find themselves increasingly priced out of the housing market.
Still, there should be no conflation of allowing foreign land ownership, the acquisition of a bundle of rights over land, with the ceding of Thai sovereignty.
The Peua Thai Party, Thailand’s leading opposition party, opposes the scheme. Arguing that nearly 80% of Thai people do not own any land, they claim that allowing foreign ownership will only benefit those who own the majority of land — the upper-middle class and elites.
Indeed, the proposed policy is unpopular outside of the military, civil service and affiliated politicians — all of whom benefit from a scheme that would distribute the revenue from increased land tax to select groups.
The current leasing policy is criticized not just for allowing foreign land ownership, but for failing to improve the well-being of low-income families.
The policy is attracting wealthy investors in the short term, but Thailand is yet to create a business environment in which investors feel it is worthwhile bringing new technology, know-how and employment to the country for long-term benefits.
The new proposed policy for foreign land ownership will have significant implications for land ownership inequality and the economy of Thailand.
While Bangkok’s proposed bill intends on reinvigorating the economy, the government should instead look to improve the rule of law and its local business environment in order to achieve better economic and housing outcomes.

(Post-pandemic Era)-Global Women Health Rehabilitation Products Market Segment Research Report 2022
Summary
The global and Chinese economies were hit hard in 2020, and the global GDP grew by 5.9% in 2021. Although the global growth prospects improved and there was a V-shaped rebound, this does not mean that the economy has really recovered to the level before the epidemic. The vast majority of countries are still in the stage of recovery after heavy damage and are far from achieving real recovery.
2022 is a year of continuous recovery. Global supply chain disturbance, geopolitical tension, energy price fluctuation, local labor shortage and rising raw material prices will affect the resilience of economic recovery. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) predicts that the world economy will grow by 4.4% in 2022, of which the U.S. economy will grow by about 4%. Driven by China and India, Asia is expected to become the fastest growing region in the world in 2022. However, China's economic growth has slowed down. The 2022 government work report shows that the expected target of economic growth is set at about 5.5%.
According to research, China has set a growth rate of about 5.5%, which not only focuses on the speed of economic growth, but also anchors the quality of economic development. Scientific and technological innovation, economic and social digitization and green development will be the long-term goals of China's economic development. It is expected that in 2022, major economies such as the United States, Europe and China will introduce more favorable policies to drive the development of switching power supply industry.

Kaiserslautern Military Community hosted the 2022 Women’s Equality Day celebration to remember the long struggle to afford women the right to vote, leading to the 19th amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1920, on Sembach Kaserne, Kaiserslautern, Germany, August 26, 2022.
U.S. Army Maj. Gen. James M. Smith, commanding general, 21st Theater Sustainment Command, began the event with opening remarks and later issued the Oath of Enlistment for 16 female Soldiers displaying their devotion to the U.S. Army and their country. The Army recognizes not only the significance of women’s contributions, but also the value of diversity and inclusivity to the fighting force.
“This is a day of opportunity to recognize the women with Team 21, who have served and who have sacrificed in the defense of our nation,” said Smith.
Women make up 18% of the regular Army, the Army National Guard and Army Reserve, and 36% of the Army’s civilian workforce. Sgt. Shannon Fountain, 92nd Military Police Company, 18th Military Police Brigade, 21st Theater Sustainment Command, is one of those women and participated in the reenlistment ceremony.
“We’re being placed equal to our male counterparts,” said Fountain, a wheeled vehicle mechanic. Fountain promoted to sergeant in July 2022 and reenlisted to lead soldiers and further her career.
To sustain a high-quality Army that is trained and ready, all troops are given equal opportunities to advance and obtain goals.
Spc. Alaveene Cox Furman, 21st Theater Sustainment Command, reenlisted to progress her professional career in the Army with the goal of becoming a non-commissioned officer. Cox Furman feels the Army presents unique opportunities such as traveling and advises other young females to make the commitment. “Try something new,” said Cox Furman. “You never know, you might like it.”
Guest speaker, Michelle Bailey, Deputy Director American Red Cross Europe Division, Africa and Middle East, encouraged women to exercise their right to vote. “Women’s equality means equality for all,” said Bailey.
History and experiences are proof that the contributions and achievements of women make our Army stronger. Today, women can serve in all Army career fields.
“Everything we’ve worked for so far, is paying off,” said Sgt. Cyonna Stevens, 18th Military Police Brigade, 21st Theater Sustainment Command. Stevens recognizes the evolution of women’s rights and equality within the ranks. She feels her role as a Service member is rewarding. “It’s hard, but it’s worth it.” Stevens, a member of the military police, reenlisted in the ceremony and wants to become a drill sergeant to develop Army Soldiers.
Sachiko Furuhata, international concert pianist, began her performance with two classical pieces by Chopin and Franz Liszt. Her final number was a duet with her daughter, Sophie Kersting, who sang, “Wherever He Ain’t,” a song from the musical, “Mack and Mabel.” The mother-daughter duo was a spectacular show and demonstrates their immeasurable talent and skill.
Bailey said Women’s Equality Day recognizes the abilities of everyone. The Army, too, recognizes all its people, Soldiers, Families, and Civilians and provides individuals the opportunity to maximize their potential.

If you've ever watched a video of a dog being reunited with its owner, you know how much it can pull on the heartstrings. Sometimes the human owners start crying because they're overcome with emotions, but what if the dogs did the same thing?
A new study says that dogs produce more tears when reunited with their owners compared to when they reunite with familiar humans who are not their owners.
The study was published in Current Biology Magazine last week and challenges the long-held notion that humans are the only creatures that are capable of producing tears as an emotional response.
Researchers used what's known as the Schirmer tear test to measure the dogs' tear volume before and after the reunions. The test is typically used to measure whether an animal or person is producing enough tears to keep their eyes moist.
Small pieces of filter paper are placed inside the lower eyelid. The paper absorbs the tears and then the volume is measured.
For the experiment, the tear volume was measured in the dog's home environment with their owners present and again shortly after the dog and owner were reunited after being apart for five to seven hours.
The researchers also compared tear volume amounts when the dogs were reunited with people they were familiar with, but who were not their owners.
"Dogs secreted larger tear volumes during reunions with their owners than with familiar non-owners, and tear volume during reunion with the owner was significantly greater than the baseline tear volume," the study said.
But not everyone in the science community is convinced. Jessica Meekins is an associate professor of veterinary ophthalmology at Kansas State University. She said her skepticism stems from the way tear production fluctuates in individual animals and species.
"In veterinary ophthalmology, we typically have a cutoff for what we would consider excessive tearing. And to me, that objective number would be a good launching off point for researchers like this to kind of establish [what is] truly significant," she said.
Analyzing the composition of the tears for an emotional trigger, Meekins said, including the hormones, electrolytes, proteins and more would be an interesting addition to a future study.
"It would be interesting to know, rather than just the volume component, whether those tears contain similar molecules to what's been identified in people in certain studies and in trying to investigate why we cry," Meekins said.
But whether you believe the results of the new study or remain skeptical, there is one thing everyone can agree on: all dogs are good dogs.

The persuasive Migraine Treatment market report helps to understand the environment and changing factors that could impact on marketing plans.
An all-inclusive Migraine Treatment report keeps away from relying on instinct and anecdotal information to make key business decisions and provides accurate market data and insights. Inadequate market research could be a recipe for disaster when planning to launch a new product or export a new market. The industry report really aids in understanding customers and competitors before making such a leap. Also, with more and more companies exporting at many global locations, it’s vital to be aware of the cultural and language differences in those markets. Research in one geographic location will yield certain results which may not be replicated in another location.

Market Overview:-
Migraine is a devastating neurological disease characterized by recurrent severe throbbing head pain attacks that can last for more than three days. The headaches, which are usually unilateral, can last from four hours to three days. Other symptoms such as nausea, increased sensitivity to sound (phonophobia), vomiting, increased sensitivity to light (photophobia), tingling or numbness in the extremities or legs, sweating, and diarrhoea are frequently linked with pain.
Migraine is a frequent brain illness that can be debilitating. Headache accounts for 4.4 percent of all general practise visits, almost 5% of all medical hospital admissions, and over 20% of neurology outpatient consultations. Migraine affects about 20% of people at some point in their lives, epidemiological research reveal that 4.5% of Western Europe's population suffers from headaches at least 15 days per month, while global studies suggest that about 1% of the world's population suffers from chronic migraine.
Some of the major players operating in the migraine treatment market are:
Pfizer Inc. (U.S)
Eli Lilly and Company (U.S)

Recent Development
According to Biohaven Pharmaceutical Holding Company Ltd. and Pfizer Inc., Rimegepant, a calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonist, earned a favourable opinion from the European Medicines Agency's (EMA) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) in February 2022. The 75 mg dose of Rimegepant (available as an orally dissolving tablet) is suggested for marketing authorization for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adults and the preventative treatment for episodic migraine in adults who experience at least four migraine attacks per month.
In January 2022, Elyxyb (celecoxib oral solution) is a novel fast-acting liquid from BioDelivery Sciences. It's one of the first FDA-approved ready-to-use oral treatments for individuals suffering from acute migraine with or without aura.
Opportunities
Migraine treatment includes features such as increased research and development (R&D) investment leading to pipeline products, which will result in manufacturers launching new products into the market, increasing demand, and technological advancement for the treatment of acute migraine has increased. Various research studies are now underway, which are likely to give producers a competitive advantage in developing new, innovative, and improved migraine treatment medications and other opportunities in the migraine treatment market.
Migraine Treatment Market Dynamics
Drivers
Increase in migraine prevalence and diagnosis
One of the major factors driving market expansion is a huge increase in migraine cases. Also, the market is benefiting from improved reimbursement policies for migraine treatments and the rising demand for precision medicines. Rising demand for electrical nerve stimulating devices to treat migraines and the expected approval of new classes of late-stage pipeline drugs with higher clinical efficacy, such as the introduction of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) monoclonal antibodies, are propelling market growth.
Significant progress is being made in the preventative treatment of chronic migraine
The significant advancements should reconsider the approaches to this devastating disease and empower us to remain observant and continue scientific clinical research and also keeping in mind that only a common, shared clinical and scientific management strategy will improve chronic migraine detection. These distinguish phenotypes and biological markers; shed light on neglected clinical governance areas. It is up to us to ensure that novel and developing treatment alternatives, such as OBT-A and anti-CGRP monoclonal antibodies, are exploited to their full potential within a broader preventative culture to drastically minimise the personal, societal, and economic costs of this deadly disease.
Growing awareness regarding migraine
The increased awareness of migraine and the multiple treatment choices available are the primary drivers of the global migraine treatment market growth in the near future. A number of organisations, like the American Headache and Migraine Association, are attempting to raise awareness of migraine by developing programmes and providing assistance to patients in order to raise knowledge about the disease and other headache diseases. A lot of vendors are going to invest in migraine medications research and development (R&D) as a result of the rising number of migraine incidences and unmet demands in the global migraine treatment market. As a result, the worldwide migraine medications market is expected to grow in the forecast period of 2022 to 2029.

'Nagad is the safest platform for customers’ money'
Nagad in a rejoinder to a report titled "Nagad spells trouble for the post office, customers" published in The Business Standard's web version on August 27, 2022, and in print version on August 28, 2022, regarding Nagad, the mobile financial arm of Bangladesh Post Office, said the report has mentioned some partial information that doesn't clarify the clear picture of the issue.
In the report, some facts and assertions are presented in a manner that provides ample possibilities for consumers to be misled.
"The report stated that Nagad had taken a loan of BDT 500 crore. According to Nagad's statement, the company obtained a loan from Exim Bank in February 2021, in order to operate the business effectively. The difference created in Nagad account because of Exim bank's unlawful adjustment of loan, which the bank cannot do from trust-cum-settlement account as per Bangladesh Bank's guideline, was later duly met up. Therefore there is no discrepancy between Nagad's e-money and physical money right at this moment, and the customers money is well protected. The writ petition against Exim bank withdrawn on 25 August 2022 by Nagad in reference of Bangladesh Bank.
"However, Nagad subsequently adjusted the loan when Bangladesh Bank issued a policy on May 6, 2021. At present, Nagad has no debts with any scheduled banks in Bangladesh.
We are assuring our well wishers and customers that Nagad is the safest platform for customers' money." | https://www.tbsnews.net/economy/nagad-safest-platform-customers-money-485986 | 2022-08-29T10:19:36Z | https://www.tbsnews.net/economy/nagad-safest-platform-customers-money-485986 | true | 1 |

Iran president: No way back to nuclear deal if probe goes on
By NASSER KARIMI and JON GAMBRELL
Associated Press
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran’s president is warning that any roadmap to restore Tehran’s tattered nuclear deal with world powers must see international inspectors end their probe on man-made uranium particles found at undeclared sites in the country. In a rare news conference Monday marking his first year in office, President Ebrahim Raisi also issued threats against Israel and tried to sound upbeat as Iran’s economy and rial currency has cratered under the weight of international sanctions. Tehran and Washington have traded written responses in recent weeks on the finer points of the roadmap, which would see sanctions lifted against Iran in exchange for it restricting its rapidly advancing nuclear program. | https://kesq.com/news/ap-national-news/2022/08/29/iran-president-no-way-back-to-nuclear-deal-if-probe-goes-on/ | 2022-08-29T10:24:26Z | https://kesq.com/news/ap-national-news/2022/08/29/iran-president-no-way-back-to-nuclear-deal-if-probe-goes-on/ | true | 5 |

It’s Monday, August 29th – and NBC 6 has the top stories for the day.
No. 1 - Miami-Dade County Commissioner Joe Martinez is expected to surrender to authorities early this week and is facing a charge related to a financial issue, sources familiar with the matter confirmed to NBC 6 sister station Telemundo 51.
Although Martinez, did not respond to requests for comment to NBC 5, the Miami Herald reports he was privately telling people close to him that he is expecting to be charged in a criminal case and is lining up support and preparing his next steps. If Martinez faces a criminal charge, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis could name a temporary replacement on the county board. The possibility of Martinez’s facing a charge was first reported Sunday on the Political Cortadito blog. Martinez, 64, served as chairman of the commission twice before. He first held the District 11 seat in 2000 and opted not to run for reelection in 2012 before winning the post again in 2016.
No. 2 - OnlyFans model Courtney Clenney, who’s charged with second-degree murder in the killing of boyfriend Christian Obumseli inside the couple’s luxury Edgewater apartment earlier this year, made her first appearance before a Miami-Dade County judge on Saturday.
Stay informed about local news and weather during the hurricane season. Get the NBC 6 South Florida app for iOS or Android and pick your alerts.
Clenney was arrested in Hawaii earlier this month and was booked into the Miami-Dade County jail on Friday after being extradited. While in court Saturday, Clenney’s attorney, Frank Prieto, asked Miami-Dade bond court Judge Jacqueline Woodward to reevaluate whether probable cause exists for the arrest warrant. Prieto argued probable cause does not exist for second-degree murder, but perhaps exists for a manslaughter charge. Authorities said Clenney - who went by the name Courtney Tailor on social media including OnlyFans and Instagram, where she has more than 2 million followers - fatally stabbed Obumseli in the apartment they shared in the luxury One Paraiso condo building in Edgewater.
No. 3 - Democratic gubernatorial candidate Charlie Crist announced Saturday that has chosen United Teachers of Dade President Karla Hernandez-Mats as his running mate in the upcoming election against Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis in November.
The announcement was made at Hialeah Middle School where Hernandez-Mats taught children with special needs for 10 years and was once named "Teacher of the Year." During the announcement Crist called his running mate, "caring, loving, empathetic, and compassionate." "That's what we don't have in the governor's office right now," Crist said. "And that's what you deserve to have in the governor's office." A proud daughter of immigrants, Hernandez-Mats is a first-generation American. Her parents migrated to the U.S. from Honduras and settled in Hialeah.

No. 4 - NASA’s new moon rocket remained on track to blast off on a crucial test flight Monday, despite a series of lightning strikes at the launch pad.
The 322-foot Space Launch System rocket is the most powerful ever built by NASA. Astronauts could return to the moon in a few years, if this six-week test flight goes well. NASA officials caution, however, that the risks are high, and the flight could be cut short. Although forecasters gave 80% odds of acceptable weather Monday morning, conditions were expected to deteriorate during the two-hour launch window between 8:33 a.m. and 10:33 a.m. NBC 6 First Alert meteorologist Angie Lassman will have live coverage throughout the day Monday.

ATLANTA (AP) — This year it became easy to overlook Rory McIlroy’s four majors, 30 wins on four continents and two years at No. 1 in the world. He has been viewed mostly as the strongest voice and staunchest defender of the PGA Tour in its battle against Saudi-funded LIV Golf.
So perhaps it was only fitting that a most tumultuous year for the PGA Tour culminated Sunday with McIlroy holding its biggest prize.
He had the final say with his clubs.
Six shots behind before the Tour Championship started, 10 shots back after two holes, McIlroy rallied from a six-shot deficit in the final round against the No. 1 player in the world and closed with a 4-under 66 to become the first three-time winner of the FedEx Cup.
“It’s been a tumultuous time for the world of men’s professional golf in particular,” he said. “I’ve been in the thick of things. I guess every chance I get, I’m trying to defend what I feel is the best place to play elite professional golf in the world.
“It’s in some ways fitting that I was able to get this done today to sort of round off a year that has been very, very challenging and different.”
It came at the expense of Masters champion Scottie Scheffler, the No. 1 player in the world who birdied four of six holes Sunday morning to finish the storm-delayed third round at 66 and build a six-shot lead. Not even McIlroy, who birdied the last two holes in the morning to get into the final group, thought he had a great chance.
But then Scheffler never regained his groove, missing fairways and greens and par putts. He made only one birdie in a closing round of 73 and tied the PGA Tour record for losing a six-shot lead in the final round.
“I just didn’t get off to a good start early, but after that I grinded as hard as I could,” Scheffler said. “For whatever reason my swing wasn’t where it had been the first few days this week.”
McIlroy had a 17-under 263 for his raw score, the best of the week. He started at 4 under as the No. 7 seed and finished at 21 under to capture the $18 million bonus.
Sungjae Im fell back with a double bogey on the 14th hole and still managed a 66 to tie for second with Scheffler. They earned $5.75 million.
McIlroy referred to the final round as a “spectacle,” and not just because of the pro-McIlroy crowd that chanted his name along the closing holes.
“Two of the best players in the world going head-to-head for the biggest prize on the PGA Tour, and I hope everyone at home enjoyed that,” he said.
McIlroy needed plenty of help from Scheffler, who never trailed until the 70th hole. Scheffler looked out of sorts early, and McIlroy capitalized. With three straight birdies, he tied him on the seventh hole. And then it was a nail-biter to the end.
It was a stunning display at East Lake that turned on two shots.
McIlroy holed a 30-foot birdie putt on the par-3 15th hole to tie for the lead.
After he flew the green by some 20 yards on the 16th, his pitch was running fast and headed off the front of the green when it hit the pin and settled 7 feet away. He saved par. Scheffler blasted out of a bunker to just inside 10 feet and missed, making bogey that put him behind for the first time all week.
Scheffler badly misread a 10-foot birdie chance on the 17th to tie, sending the Tour Championship to the final hole with $18 million on the line.
Scheffler’s 4-iron on the par-5 18th sailed short and right and into a bunker, and he blasted out over the green. McIlroy went left against the grandstand, took relief and got onto the green for an easy par.
“I wanted to win the season-long title,” Scheffler said. “I’ve had a really great year and I wanted to finish it off with a win here, and unfortunately I wasn’t able to do that.”
McIlroy won the FedEx Cup in 2016 in a playoff. He won the FedEx Cup again in 2019, the first year of a staggered start. This might have been the sweetest of fall, coming off a year in which the PGA Tour has been in a nasty battle with LIV Golf, which already has attracted some two dozen players and now is part of an antitrust lawsuit against the PGA Tour.
It was McIlroy who has declared fierce loyalty to the PGA Tour over the last few years when rival leagues were coming into a view. And it was McIlroy who joined Tiger Woods in leading a momentous player-only meeting last week that led to significant changes ahead for the tour.
So, yes, this had an extra level of satisfaction.
And no, he didn’t mind the burden he carried as the de facto voice of the tour.
“If you believe in something I think you have to speak up, and I believe very strongly about this. I really do,” McIlroy said. “I hate what it’s doing to the game of golf. I hate it.
“I think when you believe that what you’re saying is the right things, you’re happy to stick your neck out on the line.”
Even at the Tour Championship, typically a celebration of the end of the year, there was talk all weekend of more defections coming in next few days. The Daily Telegraph reported three weeks ago that British Open champion Cameron Smith was leaving for LIV Golf, and renewed reports over the weekend confirmed as much.
Two people aware of the moves said Harold Varner III, Marc Leishman and Anirban Lahiri are leaving. They spoke on condition of anonymity because it has not been announced. Cameron Tringale announced his decision on Twitter.
Still to be determined is Joaquin Niemann, whose manager said the Chilean would discuss the options with his father later Sunday.
“Everyone on tour has had to deal with a lot. Even the guys that have went to LIV have had to deal with a lot. It’s just been a very tumultuous sort of era in our game,” McIlroy said. “This is the best place in the world to play golf. It’s the most competitive. It’s got the best players. It’s got the deepest fields. I don’t know why you’d want to play anywhere else.”
With all that speculation, the Tour Championship that looked to be a runaway turned into a dynamic show. And in the end, the tour’s biggest voice had its biggest trophy.

With a new school year underway, we're wondering what goals you have set for yourselves if you're a student or teacher.
NPR poet-in-residence Kwame Alexander asks you to think with intention and write about one of your goals in the form of a poem.
It should be 10 lines or less. The first six to eight lines should be all the things you'll end up having to do this school year, and the last line or two should be that one goal that you want to work toward.
For inspiration, Kwame Alexander offers this excerpt from Maya Angelou's poem, Woman Work.
I've got the children to tend
The clothes to mend
The floor to mop
The food to shop
Then the chicken to fry
The baby to dry
I got company to feed
The garden to weed
I've got shirts to press
The tots to dress
The can to be cut
I gotta clean up this hut
Then see about the sick
So what would you like to see accomplished this year? Set yourself a non-negotiable goal.
"Maybe you want to keep your classroom better organized, or perhaps you want to expose your students to poetry," Alexander says.
"Or you want to read one book or make one person smile each and every day," Morning Edition host Rachel Martin suggests.
Share your poem through the form below. Then Kwame Alexander will take lines from some of your pieces and create a community crowdsourced poem that will be read on-air and published online, where contributors will be credited.

There is a waggish take on bureaucracies and bureaucrats that observes they resist reform because a powerful bureaucrat would rather see his or her agency fail as long as they can retain control. Any fix that threatens to eliminate or replace incompetent managers, however dreadful their performance, is resisted with the ferocity of a cornered badger. This instinct for self-preservation is not limited to government. Try tangling with a project manager in the private sector. Generally, we find large corporations and governmental regulatory schemes both evolve into feudal systems masquerading as hierarchies.
Long-serving supervisors throw up ramparts and dig alligator-filled moats to protect against messengers with news of change — all of which brings us to the case of the Colorado Supreme Court and its management of the state’s judicial department. Nearly four years have elapsed since we first learned that Mindy Masias, a recently fired employee and acting chief of staff, had subsequently been awarded a $2.5 million contract to provide two years of "management training" within the department. A whistleblower alleged her sweetheart deal was actually hush money designed to prevent the disgruntled manager, who was passed over for permanent appointment to the top job in the department, from dumping sordid tales of judicial misconduct beneath the black robes of Colorado courts into the public square.
For the moment, let's set aside whether instances of sexual harassment, as well as aberrant and odious behavioral peccadilloes, were routinely swept under the rugs of Colorado’s court chambers. Without knowing whether the fiscal improprieties which prompted Masias’ dismissal were merely a jiggering of an expense account or placing a finger on departmental contracting practices — $2.5 million seems a surpassingly ridiculous appreciation for her potential skills as a management consultant. Who fires and then hires back a thief, a slacker or an incompetent? You don’t have to be Sherlock Holmes to recognize something here doesn’t meet a simple smell test.
Colorado has a Judicial Discipline Commission that usually operates well out of public view, dismissing nearly 80% of public complaints against judges from failed plaintiffs resentful over adverse decisions and equally frivolous allegations of judicial bias. It’s rare an investigation of judicial misfeasance is undertaken. The allegation that the chief justice of the Supreme Court approved the consulting contract in question launched a tug-of-war between the commission and the court itself. Colorado’s state Constitution incorporates the separation of powers embedded in the federal constitution, separating the executive, legislative and judicial branches of government. Therefore, as Harry Truman noted, “the buck stops here” for judicial department with the chief justice.
Therefore, it raised more than a few eyebrows when Chief Justice Nathan "Ben" Coats abruptly resigned once the proverbial manure hit the fan. Make of that what you will. It’s hard not to harbor sympathy for current Chief Justice Boatright, who was left with janitorial challenges. The court’s decision to hire independent legal consultants in competition with the Disciplinary Commission and then drag its feet in cooperating and funding their independent investigation appears a significant blunder. It should be said that judges are rarely selected for their managerial skills or experience, but rather for their legal acumen. This creates a natural tension between the professional staff and judges. Who’s actually steering the boat?
The court’s consultants have reported there was nothing amiss in the award of the original consulting contract. Nothing to see there, just administrative business as usual. This finding defies belief. They also discovered staff morale is abysmal, faith in the neutrality of human resources managers is in the tank and there’s no formal process for reporting workplace grievances. These results pulled a reluctant Legislature into a fracas not of their own making. An interim study committee is wrestling with legislative recommendations that might restore confidence in the Judicial Department.
There seems to be acknowledgment that an ombudsman and/or inspector general’s office is needed with clearly defined authorities. Separating its investigatory function from disciplinary determinations remained fuzzy during the committee’s deliberations. The Supreme Court is determined to play this role, with an exception for charges against members of the Supreme Court itself — which is precisely how this mess developed in the first place. In smaller courts, the arrival of investigators can immediately implicate complainants.
The Judicial Discipline Commission had to appeal to the Legislature for independent funding, which was provided, and its separate investigation remains outstanding. Interim Committee Chair, Sen. Pete Lee (D-Colorado Springs), has had to step aside because of residency challenges in El Paso County. The incoming 2023 Legislature will have to sort out this considerable controversy. Our courts exercise considerable influence over individual lives. I’m aware of an instance several years ago where a probation officer was confirmed to be trading privileges for sexual favors. He was permitted to retire. Was that judicious or a cover-up?

Meet the man covered head to toe in tattoos - who is so scary he says he gets kicked out of supermarkets. Keith Gordon, 66, is one of Britain's most inked up men, but not everyone is a fan of his crazy body art.
He was recently grocery shopping with his family in Brighton, when, much to his disgust, he was told by an employee he wasn't welcome in the store.
Keith, from Romford, Essex, said: "I couldn't believe he had the audacity to come up to me and comment on how I looked in front of my kids. It's my body, my choice and his behaviour was discriminatory in all senses of the word."
The dad-of-three got his first tattoos at 17 years old, but underwent several skin grafts four years later to remove them. He then lived tattoo-free until he was 52, when he suddenly decided he missed his old body art.
So he went back to the tattoo parlour to reinvent himself, but this time took the look to new extremes. From having body art removed as a young man, Keith went full circle - tattooing most of his body, even his eyelids.
Now, 14 years later, there is now next to no skin he has left uncovered and Keith has spent tens of thousands of pounds on his tattoos. And the father now says he has re-invented himself as "the coolest looking guy in Essex".
Keith said: "I don't know how many there are in total. I've lost count. It is just one big project. But getting my whole head tattooed was a very extreme, intense experience.
"There was a feeling of euphoria coming out knowing I had got another new piece and that I'd managed to stand the pain. At times it was very, very, painful especially around the corner of the eyes, the lip and parts of the inner ear - that was absolutely killer."
Keith receives a lot positive comments about his tattoos, but also lots of negative ones as well. During the shopping trip in Brighton one employee took offence to how he looked.
The employee walked up to Keith and told him he had to leave, saying he wasn't welcome in the store. Keith was shocked at how he'd been treated, so he went home and complained to the supermarket - who later issued him an apology and a £20 shopping voucher. He says he is frustrated by strangers feeling they have the right to target him because of his unique look - but equally loves the positive attention and being different.
Keith, a retired civil servant, said: "A lot of people look at me aggressively. They look almost saddened and angry, but I don't understand why - it's me who's looking like this, not them.
"This member of staff obviously hates tattoos and has a problem with people who have them and he couldn't control himself - it's disgusting. I was so angry I went home and complained to the supermarket and thankfully they took the responsibility. Part of being different is dealing with negative comments and ignorant people -but overall I love the attention." | https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/real-life/britains-most-tattooed-man-scary-24879789 | 2022-08-29T10:38:39Z | https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/real-life/britains-most-tattooed-man-scary-24879789 | false | 3 |

China’s Shenzhen shuts key electronics market to fight Covid-19
SHENZHEN, China, Aug 29 (Reuters) - Authorities in China's southern city of Shenzhen temporarily closed the world's largest electronics market of Huaqiangbei and suspended service at 24 subway stations in a bid to curb an outbreak of Covid-19 on Monday.
Three key buildings of the sprawling area, comprised of thousands of stalls selling microchips, telephone parts, and other components to manufacturers, will stay closed until Sept 2.
Local community officials confirmed Monday’s closure to Reuters, while three people working there said building managers had told them to work from home.
The same official Shenzhen channels called a halt to subway services at 24 stations in the central districts of Futian and Luohu.
On Monday, the tech hub of 18 million people reported nine symptomatic and two asymptomatic cases from testing the previous day.

BEIJING (AP) — A Chinese think tank issued a rare public disagreement Monday with the ruling Communist Party’s severe “zero COVID” policy, saying curbs that shut down cities and disrupt trade, travel and industry must change to prevent an “economic stall.”
The Anbound Research Center gave no details of possible changes but said President Xi Jinping's government needs to focus on shoring up sinking growth. It noted the United States, Europe and Japan are recovering economically after easing anti-disease curbs.
“Preventing the risk of economic stall should be the priority task," the think tank said in a report titled, “It's Time for China to Adjust Its Virus Control and Prevention Policies.”
Even such mild public disagreement with official policy is almost unknown in a politically sensitive year when Xi, China's most powerful leader since at least the 1980s, is expected to try to extend his time in office.
People are also reading…
The report, dated Sunday, was posted on the Anbound Research Center's accounts on the popular WeChat messaging platform and the Sina Weibo microblog service but was deleted from both on Monday afternoon.
The anti-virus curbs are widely expected to stay in place at least until after a Communist Party meeting in October and November at which Xi is likely to break with tradition and award himself a third five-year term as leader.
Economists warn that China needs to boost growth that sank to 2.5% over a year earlier in the first half of 2022, less than half the official annual target of 5.5%, after Shanghai and other industrial centers shut down starting in late March to fight virus outbreaks.
“China’s economy is at risk of stalling" due to the “impact of epidemic prevention and control policies," the think tank said.
The economy also is under pressure from a plunge in real estate activity after Beijing tightened controls on the industry’s use of debt.
Economists and public health experts have warned since mid-2021 that “zero COVID,” which aims to keep the virus out of China by isolating every case, is unsustainable. Officials respond that they have no alternative because letting the virus spread would overwhelm Chinese hospitals.
A Shanghai physician with 3 million followers on social media, Zhang Wenhong, was shut down by official criticism and targeted by a plagiarism investigation in 2021 after he suggested China’s strategy could change and the world “needs to learn how to coexist with the virus.”
Founded in 1993, Anbound says it has served the Communist Party’s Central Financial and Economic Leading Group and provided research to government agencies and financial institutions.
Its report gave no indication whether it might represent the thinking of officials who are unhappy with the soaring economic and human cost of “zero COVID.”
China's policy has kept deaths and infection numbers low but led to a wave of business failures.
News reports say local governments are cutting public services and wages for civil servants to pay for virus testing and anti-disease measures.
The economic impact of repeated shutdowns of companies and neighborhoods is more severe than last year, the think tank said. It said that “freezing effect” might be even worse than when the outbreak began in 2020 and the whole economy shut down temporarily.
On Monday, the southern city of Shenzhen, a center for technology and finance that borders Hong Kong, announced a three-day closure of some residential areas to contain an outbreak and shut down the world's biggest electronics market.
Also Monday, the government of Shenyang, the most populous city in the northeast, postponed the start of in-person classes this week for primary and high school students.
China needs to “focus on economic recovery and gradually integrate with the world,” the Anbound report said.
Travel curbs keep out most foreign visitors. The government has stopped replacing passports that expire and has called on the public to avoid going abroad.
Last week, the U.S. government canceled 26 flights by Chinese airlines to China from the United States in a dispute over Beijing’s anti-virus controls. China earlier forced American carriers to cancel the same number of flights after some passengers tested positive for the virus. | https://lacrossetribune.com/lifestyles/health-med-fit/chinese-think-tank-virus-curbs-must-change-to-help-economy/article_4259d6e6-08d0-5228-ba5b-9170885425ed.html | 2022-08-29T10:51:58Z | https://lacrossetribune.com/lifestyles/health-med-fit/chinese-think-tank-virus-curbs-must-change-to-help-economy/article_4259d6e6-08d0-5228-ba5b-9170885425ed.html | false | 38 |
PARIS (AP) — The woman was crumpled on the floor of a mangled Mercedes, unconscious and struggling to breathe. The French doctor had no idea who she was, and focused on trying to save her.
Twenty-five years later, Frederic Mailliez is still marked by what happened in the Alma Tunnel in Paris on Aug. 31, 1997 — and the realization that he was one of the last people to see Princess Diana alive.
“I realize my name will always be attached to this tragic night,” Mailliez, who was on his way home from a party when he came across the car crash, told The Associated Press. “I feel a little bit responsible for her last moments.”
As Britain and Diana’s admirers worldwide mark a quarter-century since her death, Mailliez recounted the aftermath of the crash.
That night, Mailliez was driving into the tunnel when he spotted a smoking Mercedes nearly split in two.
“I walked toward the wreckage. I opened the door, and I looked inside,” he said.
What he saw: “Four people, two of them were apparently dead, no reaction, no breathing, and the two others, on the right side, were living but in severe condition. The front passenger was screaming, he was breathing. He could wait a few minutes. And the female passenger, the young lady, was on her knees on the floor of the Mercedes, she had her head down. She had difficulty to breathe. She needed quick assistance.”
He ran to his car to call emergency services and grab a respiratory bag.
“She was unconscious,” he said. “Thanks to my respiratory bag (…) she regained a little bit more energy, but she couldn’t say anything.”
The doctor would later find out the news — along with the rest of the world — that the woman he treated was Diana, Britain’s national treasure adored by millions.
“I know it’s surprising, but I didn’t recognize Princess Diana,” he said. “I was in the car on the rear seat giving assistance. I realized she was very beautiful, but my attention was so focused on what I had to do to save her life, I didn’t have time to think, who was this woman.”
“Someone behind me told me the victims spoke English, so I began to speak English, saying I was a doctor and I called the ambulance,” he said. “I tried to comfort her.”
As he worked, he noticed the flash of camera bulbs, of paparazzi gathered to document the scene. A British inquest found Diana’s chauffeur, Henri Paul, was drunk and driving at a high speed to elude pursuing photographers.
Mailliez said he had “no reproach” toward the photographers’ actions after the crash. “They didn’t hamper me having access to the victims. … I didn’t ask them for help, but they didn’t interfere with my job.”
Firefighters quickly came, and Diana was taken to a Paris hospital, where she died a few hours later. Her companion Dodi Fayed and the driver also died.
“It was a massive shock to learn that she was Princess Diana, and that she died,” Mailliez said. Then self-doubt set in. “Did I do everything I could to save her? Did I do correctly my job?” he asked himself. “I checked with my medical professors and I checked with police investigators,” he said, and they agreed he did all he could.
The anniversary is stirring up those memories again, but they also come back “each time I drive through the Alma Tunnel,” he said.
As Mailliez spoke, standing atop the tunnel, cars rushed in and out past the pillar where she crashed, now bearing a stencil drawing of Diana’s face.
The Flame of Liberty monument nearby has become a memorial site attracting Diana fans of all generations and nationalities. She has become a timeless figure of emancipation and a fashion icon even for those born after her death.
Irinia Ouahvi, a 16-year-old Parisian visiting the flame, said she knows Diana through TikTok videos and through her mother.
“Even with her style she was a feminist. She challenged royal etiquette, wearing cyclist shorts and casual pants,” Ouahvi said.
Francine Rose, a Dutch 16-year-old who stopped by Diana’s memorial while on a biking trip in Paris, discovered her story thanks to “The Princess,” a recent film starring Kristen Stewart.
“She is an inspiration because she was evolving in the strict household, the royal family, and just wanted to be free,” Rose said.

Shifting Consumer Preference Toward Packaged Convenience Foods Is Expected to Drive U.S. Processed Pumpkin Market by 2028
Posted on 2022-08-29 by researchinsights in Food & Beverage, Healthcare, Industrial // 0 Comments
San Francisco, Calif., USA, Aug 29, 2022 — /EPR Network/ —
U.S. Processed Pumpkin Industry Overview
The U.S. processed pumpkin market size was valued at USD 1.34 billion in 2020 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5% from 2021 to 2028. Shifting consumer preference toward packaged convenience foods is expected to drive the demand for processed pumpkin over the next few years. Processed pumpkin has been witnessing a remarkable demand from the food and beverage industry, not only due to its taste and flavor but also because of the numerous health benefits associated with it. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a direct and indirect impact on the demand for processed pumpkins in the U.S. The coronavirus outbreak has affected the raw material as well as application industries. In addition to this, companies have also witnessed transportation delays. The pandemic has had an adverse impact on the supply chain of the fruit and vegetable industry in the U.S., with lower prices and reduced production emerging as the key problems within the industry.
Processed pumpkin is one of the most versatile cooking ingredients and its rich and creamy texture is ideal for preparing both sweet and savory dishes, including desserts and ice creams. It is also very commonly used for preparing sauces, spreads, creams, soups, and dressings that require added thickness with lower fat content. These numerous applications are propelling the demand for the product in the U.S.
Gather more insights about the market drivers, restraints and growth of the U.S. Processed Pumpkin market
Processed pumpkin is widely used not just for home cooking but also in various commercial applications in restaurants, bakeries, eateries, and the hotel industry. Furthermore, the increasing application of the product in the form of powder, puree, and chunks in several food processing sectors, including bakery, beverages, smoothies, confectionary, baby foods, dairy, and frozen products, is expected to boost the market growth.
One of the key factors driving the demand for the product is the increasing consumer awareness about the nutritive value of pumpkin in the U.S. A shift has been observed toward healthier diets, which is resulting in changing food choices. Consumers are increasingly opting for healthy food choices that will help maintain their body weight, meet their nutritional requirements, and prevent chronic diseases.
The growing trend of organic food and beverages in the U.S. is expected to widen the opportunities for organic processed pumpkin in the upcoming years. This is attributed to the increasing awareness about the harmful effects of pesticides, chemicals, and additives on human health and the high per-capita income of U.S. consumers. Furthermore, the growing number of health-conscious consumers and the rising awareness regarding the health benefits associated with organic pumpkins and clean label products are likely to drive the demand for organic processed pumpkins.

NASA's Webb discovers CO2 on a planet outside of our solar system
NASA's new James Webb Space Telescope has discovered evidence for carbon dioxide being present in an exoplanet called WASP-39 b atmosphere.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is making waves with its new observations as the observatory has recently discovered CO2 on an exoplanet.
NASA has taken to its blog and social channels to announce that Webb has captured the very first evidence of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere of a planet outside of our solar system. The space agency explains that Webb's observations of a gas giant planet named WASP-39 b, a planet orbiting a Sun-like star approximately 700 light years from Earth. NASA writes that this evidence gives researchers important insights into how planet formation and how Webb can be fine-tuned to detect CO2 in the atmosphere of other planets.
WASP-39 b is about one-quarter the size of Jupiter, with a diameter 1.3 times greater than Jupiter. Additionally, the planet operates at a temperature of 1,600 Fahrenheit, with previous observations from other NASA telescopes such as Hubble and Spitzer revealing the presence of water vapor, potassium, and sodium within WASP-39 b's atmosphere. Using Webb's high-tech infrared instruments, researchers have now confirmed the presence of carbon dioxide, paving the way for Webb's continuous effort to probe exoplanet atmospheres in search of their chemical composition.
The researchers explained the value in being able to analyze the atmosphere of an exoplanet to find its chemical composition, with Mike Line from Arizona State University and a member of the research team explained that molecules such as carbon dioxide give insights into the planet's evolution.
"Carbon dioxide molecules are sensitive tracers of the story of planet formation. By measuring this carbon dioxide feature, we can determine how much solid versus how much gaseous material was used to form this gas giant planet. In the coming decade, JWST will make this measurement for a variety of planets, providing insight into the details of how planets form and the uniqueness of our own solar system," said Mike Line.
Zafar Rustamkulov, a graduate student at Johns Hopkins University and member of the JWST Transiting Exoplanet Community Early Release Science team, which was conducting the investigation, explained the experience of seeing the data from Webb's observations appear on his screen, with Rustamkulov saying the carbon dioxide readings "grabbed me" and that it was a "special moment" that crosses an important threshold in the exponentially growing field of exoplanet sciences.
In other NASA news, the space agency is launching the first mission in its effort to get humans back on the surface of the Moon, as NASA prepares for the Artemis 1 launch, where the SLS rocket will go on a journey around the Moon.

Miss. man who sexually assaulted young kids gets life in prison
GULFPORT, Miss. (WLOX) - A Mississippi man convicted of sexual battery will spend the rest of his life behind bars.
Darryl Anthony Parnell, 37, was sentenced to life in prison after the jury returned a guilty verdict in his trial for sexual battery, WLOX reports.
Officials say a victim who testified about his horrifying assault was just 3 or 4 years old when it happened. Unfortunately, he wasn’t the only victim.
During the course of that investigation, it was discovered that Parnell had sexually assaulted other victims, all in Jackson County.
“The jury heard testimony from those four other children that Parnell had sexually assaulted them when they were approximately 5 to 10 years old,” said Assistant District Attorney Haley Broom, who prosecuted the case along with ADA Jason Josef.
The trial lasted three days, but it only took the jury about an hour to return a guilty verdict.
Circuit Court Judge Larry Bourgeois then sentenced Parnell to life in prison. The judge told Parnell he took the victims’ “innocence and childhood” and described the crime as “a despicable act.”
“We commend these victims for courageously coming forward to disclose and testify about the sexual abuse they suffered. Although there is no sentence that can give back to those victims that which was taken by this defendant, we hope this conviction and sentence will help in the healing process,” said District Attorney Crosby Parker.

To the editor:
I am supporting Polly Titcomb for state representative and here’s why. Polly loves puzzles. She loves puzzles for the complexity and challenge of them. As the only candidate who has held elected municipal office, she has used this dedication to complexity and challenge to weed her way through mastering municipal financial policy to design policies to address Swampscott’s complicated financial issues. She’s also used her skills to navigate and lead the Swampscott Board of Selectmen (and she’s running with their full endorsement). She understands what it takes to run our communities because she has done it. This means when Polly is representing us at the state level, figuring out how to connect state resources with our community will be a lot less puzzling.
Polly is running for an office in a system with a huge barrier to entry for single, working parents without their own resources to pave the way. And campaigning is not cheap. This has proved one of the biggest puzzles of all. How to galvanize support in a crowded field of Democrats with very limited resources? Polly has hit the road, spending endless hours speaking to neighbors in our community about her passion for public service, about her ideas to secure housing and transportation for our communities and safety for our coastline. As she’s met with individuals, she spends the time to listen; to hear their piece of the puzzle, what’s important to them and to reflect on how she can support them when serving in Boston.
And when she needs five minutes to recharge? She turns to the puzzle of the week on her dining room table. I have had the privilege to be on the other side of that puzzle from time to time. I am always challenged by the conversations we have as she thinks about our community that she is so driven to serve, parsing out the roots of our struggles, the possible solutions and the importance of making sure they are solutions that work for all of us, across an incredibly diverse spectrum. From living in this town and benefiting from the policies that Polly has been instrumental in designing, watching her work to share her passion and vision with our community and from what I know of her as a person, I know she will take her dedication, find a way to make complicated policy pieces fit the whole picture in a cohesive way and be a tireless and thoughtful advocate for us on Beacon Hill.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — NASA’s new moon rocket remained on track to blast off on a crucial test flight Monday, despite a series of lightning strikes at the launch pad.
The 322-foot (98-meter) Space Launch System rocket is the most powerful ever built by NASA. It’s poised to send an empty crew capsule into lunar orbit, a half-century after NASA’s Apollo program, which landed 12 astronauts on the moon.
Astronauts could return to the moon in a few years, if this six-week test flight goes well. NASA officials caution, however, that the risks are high and the flight could be cut short.
In lieu of astronauts, three test dummies are strapped into the Orion capsule to measure vibration, acceleration and radiation, one of the biggest hazards to humans in deep space. The capsule alone has more than 1,000 sensors.
Officials said Sunday that neither the rocket nor capsule suffered any damage during Saturday’s thunderstorm; ground equipment also was unaffected. Five strikes were confirmed, hitting the 600-foot (183-meter) lightning-protection towers surrounding the rocket at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. The strikes weren’t strong enough to warrant major retesting.
“Clearly, the system worked as designed,” said Jeff Spaulding, NASA’s senior test director.
More storms were expected. Although forecasters gave 80% odds of acceptable weather Monday morning, conditions were expected to deteriorate during the two-hour launch window.
On the technical side, Spaulding said the team did its best over the past several months to eliminate any lingering fuel leaks. A pair of countdown tests earlier this year prompted repairs to leaking valves and other faulty equipment; engineers won’t know if all the fixes are good until just a few hours before the planned liftoff. If Monday doesn’t pan out, the next launch attempt would be Friday.
After so many years of delays and setbacks, the launch team was thrilled to finally be so close to the inaugural flight of the Artemis moon-exploration program, named after Apollo’s twin sister in Greek mythology.
“We’re within 24 hours of launch right now, which is pretty amazing for where we’ve been on this journey,” Spaulding told reporters.
The follow-on Artemis flight, as early as 2024, would see four astronauts flying around the moon. A landing could follow in 2025. NASA is targeting the moon’s unexplored south pole, where permanently shadowed craters are believed to hold ice that could be used by future crews.

A Place in the Sun’s Ben Hillman has shared a photo of himself in hospital after a horror injury on holiday in France.
Earlier this month, the TV presenter took to Instagram to share he had badly broken his thumb on the first day of his family getaway.
Posting a snap with a bandaged hand and a plate of hospital food in front of him, he wrote: “Not the French cuisine I had in mind for the 1st day of our family holiday!”
Revealing what he had done, Ben continued: “Managed to acquire an open fracture/dislocation on the water slide.
“For those not in the know that means the bone was sticking out the skin.
“Word to the wise, don’t forget your travel insurance this summer. Have fun out there guys. Hats off to the French healthcare/emergency services.”

Over the bank holiday weekend, Ben gave fans an update on his injury and shared he'd had a metal rod taken out of his thumb.
Posting a snap from Worthing hospital, the married dad-of-two wrote: “4 weeks on from the accident and the metal rod is coming out.”
He also shared a ‘re-enactment’ video of the squeamish moment it was removed which he captioned #theyrebigpliers #diysurgery.
After it was done, Ben joked: “Thank you # NHS. And I didn’t even get a sticker for bravery.”
Comparing his injured thumb to the one on his other hand, he added: “It’s going to take some time to get it moving again. My thumb seems to have grown.”
When he was first injured, his A Place in the Sun’s co-stars and other famous pals were quick to wish him a speedy recovery.
Jasmine Harman wrote: “Oh no!!!” followed by a sad face emoji, while Laura Hamilton commented: “Hope you are okay” with tear emojis.
Scarlett Douglas posted: “Noooo, get better soon xx” and Lee Juggernauth said: “Oh mate... hope you feel better soon.”
Astrologer Russell Grant added: “Oh no Ben – sending healing vibes.”
And it seems the healing vibes worked as Ben was still able to enjoy the rest of his holiday with wife Gabby and daughters, Hope and Honour.
On the last day of their two-week holiday, he shared more pics with his family and wrote: “Oh what fun we had!!!
“Despite the obvious setback of spending the first night in hospital we had the most amazing family holiday in Brittany and the Dordogne.”
He added: “We will be returning asap, even found our ideal holiday home spot so I better get saving!”

(The Hill) – Marijuana use reached a record high in new polling, as for the first time more Americans said they smoke marijuana than reported smoking cigarettes in the last week.
Sixteen percent of Americans in a new Gallup poll reported smoking marijuana, up from 12 percent last year and more than double the all-time low of 7 percent.
Fewer Americans, at 11 percent, reported smoking cigarettes in the past week, down from 16 percent last year and a far fall from a peak at 45 percent in the 1950s.
It’s the highest percentage of reported marijuana use and the lowest percentage of past-week cigarette use since Gallup started asking those questions in 2013 and 1944, respectively.
Nearly half of U.S. adults now report having tried marijuana, up from 4 percent when Gallup first surveyed about its use in 1969.
Despite increasingly common use of the drug, Americans remain evenly split on whether marijuana is having a negative or positive effect on society.
Yet more than two-thirds of Americans, at 68 percent, think the drug should be legal, a record-high maintained from last year’s polling.
Six states could vote on ballot measures legalizing marijuana in the November midterm elections, and should they pass, will join 19 others in legalizing recreational marijuana.
Conducted July 5-26, the surveys on marijuana and tobacco use polled 1,013 U.S. adults and had a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 4 percentage points at the 95 percent confidence level. | https://kfor.com/news/nexstar-media-wire/marijuana-use-hits-record-high-in-new-gallup-poll/ | 2022-08-29T11:08:28Z | https://kfor.com/news/nexstar-media-wire/marijuana-use-hits-record-high-in-new-gallup-poll/ | true | 20 |
Sheffield United are facing potential disruption for their clash with Reading FC on Tuesday night as Liverpool are being linked with a move for their star midfielder.
Reports suggest Jurgen Klopp is interested in luring Norway international Sander Berge away from Bramall Lane ahead of the 11pm transfer deadline on Thursday night.
A report in the Yorkshire Post says Klopp has been a long-time admirer of playmaker Berge, who has a £35m release clause inserted into his contract. The former Genk player was signed in January 2020 by Chris Wilder for around £22m.

Liverpool are seeking extra midfield options due to injuries to Thiago, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Curtis Jones and Naby Keita.
Second-placed Sheffield's United are currently busy preparing for their top-of-the-table clash with Reading in the Championship.
Berge has played in all six of the Blades' league games so far in 2022/23, as well as their Carabao Cup defeat at West Brom. Paul Heckingbottom's side have won three, drawn two and lost one of their league matches.

How dare anyone demand an apology for Covid lockdowns – have they forgotten the terrors of early 2020?
The myth is being perpetuated that lockdowns actually caused more deaths than lives saved. It is a ridiculous suggestion, but a seductive one
Advocating lockdowns might not seem the most appropriate way to enjoy a sunny bank holiday, but I fear it’s necessary.
Thanks to some unwise remarks by those two second-raters vying to lead our poor knackered nation, the Covid denialists have been emboldened. Not only do they vow to resist any future public health precautions, but they are demanding that those of us who advocated lockdowns should apologise, both for the lockdowns themselves and the undoubted misery caused, but also for the non-Covid excess deaths now being experienced. It is getting absurd.
Liz Truss, inexplicably and inexcusably, has ruled out lockdowns in the face of any future pandemic, no matter how deadly; and Rishi Sunak now says he didn’t argue hard enough in cabinet about the economic damage and let the scientists become “empowered”.
Where once these two said they wanted to be guided by the science, they have now joined the ranks of the anti-science conspiracy theorists. It’s terrifying to behold. At least Boris Johnson, genuinely reluctant and slow to impose the lockdowns, did bow to the reality of the position in 2020 and 2021 and take the painful action required to save many lives.
His successors seem, strange to say, more cowardly about doing the right thing in future. They seem to have sided with those who’d rather not run up more national debt, and thus pay higher taxes, to save the lives of others. It’s an ugly sort of backlash.
The myth is being perpetuated that lockdowns actually caused more deaths than lives saved. It is a ridiculous suggestion, but a seductive one, and one that is gaining currency, on social media and among folk who should know better.
Have we forgotten the terrors of early 2020? A completely unfamiliar, poorly understood but highly infectious and potentially deadly coronavirus was ripping through populations in China and Europe causing deaths and serious illness. Health services in Italy couldn’t cope with the demand.
People choked to death, effectively asphyxiated by the virus, before they got near a doctor. At that time we were utterly defenceless and no matter how much we’d like to have dismissed it as not much worse than flu, in too many cases it caused an agonising unnecessary death.
To reiterate: when the first lockdown was announced by Boris Johnson in March 2020 there was little knowledge about the disease and how it spread, no cures, no vaccines, no treatments, no testing kits, little protective equipment in hospitals, a shortage of hand sanitisers, masks and disposable gloves for home use, and, most important of all, simply not enough ambulances, hospital beds, intensive care facilities and respirators to save lives.
We were trying to build the basic Nightingale hospitals just to warehouse the sick; and making grim plans for mass graves. All this seems to have been forgotten, strangely, in an orgy of post-event denialism.
Covid was a potentially fatal disease that had – and has – the especially nasty feature that it is easily spread while people are asymptomatic. Before they ever got a cough or a fever they can unknowingly make many others sick – an especially insidious feature of Covid.
Like any plague, it spreads exponentially, and soon there was hardly a place in earth unaffected. As the slogan of the time went, we had to stay indoors to protect the NHS from collapse and to save lives. As the disease took hold in hospitals and care homes, staff went off sick and there were even fewer people to care for those dying from Covid.
For some reason the nation now wants to indulge in act of collective amnesia. We want to pretend now that things weren’t that bad and the lockdowns weren’t really needed. The lie is being spread that the lockdowns have left us with a terrible backlog of cases, and hence the delays and queues for NHS treatment now. Yet it was cold that did that, not the public health precautions.
So the opposite was – and is – the truth. Without social distancing, restrictions on gatherings, mask wearing, hygiene regimes, and self-isolation, then even more cases would have overcrowded GP surgeries, ambulances and hospital wards – and left even fewer resources available to treat other urgent cases.
The alternative would have been to just leave people with Covid: feverish and unable to breathe, to die alone at home, often on the excuse that were too old anyway – the “let the bodies pile high” attitude once attributed to Johnson.
In fact, during the pandemic the NHS did still attend to other non-Covid sick people – I know this from personal experiences – and did so because the lockdowns and other public health precautions allowed the medics the space to do so. No doubt too, some people suffered mental health problems, many children had their educations disrupted and some of those who felt unwell didn’t come forward for attention.
The economy, which we rely on to fund free health care, was damaged. But all of those situations would have been worse had the lockdowns not broken the chain of transmission and prevented overload. Even more harsh and longer lockdowns would have become inevitable as the system broke down.
As I say, the unspoken alternative strategy (used in previous centuries) would have been to confine Covid patients to their homes, not allow them out or offer them treatment at all. Boris Johnson would have been left to die in his Downing Street flat after he fell ill with his own serious case of Covid, possibly caught through a cavalier attitude to the tiny micro-organism.
The case for the lockdowns has been put eloquently by Chris Whitty. A national hero, Whitty is now having his reputation quietly trashed by people who should know better. This is what Whitty told MPs last year when he was asked if the emergence of the omicron variant meant it was being prioritised over cancer treatment:
“That is sometimes said by people who have no understanding of health at all, but I do not think it is said by anyone who is serious, if I am honest. When they say it, it is usually because they want to make a political point.”
“The reality is, and if you ask any doctor working in any part of the system they will say this, that what is threatening our ability to do cancer and to do all these things is the fact that so much of the NHS effort, and so many of the beds, are having to be put over to Covid that we are having to work in a less efficient way because Covid is there. Finding a way to manage Covid that minimises the impact on everything else is absolutely central to what we are trying to do.”
“In a sense, I completely agree that there are multiple other things in addition to Covid. If we do not crack Covid at the point when we have big waves, as we have now, we will do huge damage elsewhere. The idea that the lockdowns cause problems with things like cancer is a complete inversion of reality.”

“If we had not had the lockdowns, the whole system would have been in deep, deep trouble and the impact on things like heart attacks and strokes, and all the other things people must still come forward for when they have them, would have been even worse than it was. I want, through all of you, to make it absolutely clear that that is an inversion of reality.”
It seems that the present epidemic of amnesia is one unexpected consequence of Covid. The constant refrain that we have to “learn to live with Covid” seems intended to mean we shouldn’t worry about it, treat it like a bad cold, and indeed forget all about that nasty pandemic, because if we stop thinking about the coronavirus then it will go way. But of course it won’t, and one day a variant both more dangerous and more infectious will emerge.
We should now be making sure the incidence of Covid is minimised, through simple precautions such as masks on crowded public transport, free testing kits, and mandatory self-isolation while infectious. And, one day, in extremis, we may need a lockdown to prevent a collapse of the NHS. If we took more precautions now, a lockdown would be less likely, but might still be needed. Are we really so forgetful?

NEW YORK (AP) — For one day, movie tickets will be just $3 in the vast majority of American theaters as part of a newly launched “National Cinema Day” to lure moviegoers during a quiet spell at the box office.
The Cinema Foundation, a non-profit arm of the National Association of Theater Owners, on Sunday announced that Sept. 3 will be a nationwide discount day in more than 3,000 theaters and on more than 30,000 screens. Major chains, including AMC and Regal Cinemas, are participating, as are all major film studios. In participating theaters, tickets will be no more than $3 for every showing, in every format.
Labor Day weekend is traditionally one of the slowest weekends in theaters. This year, the August lull has been especially acute for exhibitors. Cineworld, which owns Regal Cinemas, cited the scant supply of major new releases in its recent plans to fill for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
But, if successful, National Cinema Day could flood theaters with moviegoers and potentially prompt them to return in the fall. Before each showing, ticket buyers will be shown a sizzle reel of upcoming films from A24, Amazon Studios, Disney, Focus Features, Lionsgate, Neon, Paramount, Sony Pictures Classics, Sony, United Artists Releasing, Universal, and Warner Bros.
“After this summer’s record-breaking return to cinemas, we wanted to do something to celebrate moviegoing,” said Jackie Brenneman, Cinema Foundation president, in a statement. “We’re doing it by offering a ‘thank you’ to the moviegoers that made this summer happen, and by offering an extra enticement for those who haven’t made it back yet.”
After more than two years of pandemic, movie theaters rebounded significantly over the summer, seeing business return to nearly pre-pandemic levels. Films like “Top Gun: Maverick,”“Minions: Rise of Gru,”“Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” and “Jurassic World Dominion” pushed the domestic summer box office to $3.3 billion in ticket sales as of Aug. 21, according to data firm Comscore. That trails 2019 totals by about 20% but exhibitors have had about 30% fewer wide releases this year.
Organizers of National Cinema Day described the event as a trial that could become an annual fixture. While some other countries have experimented with a similar day of cheap movie tickets, the initiative is the first of its kind on such a large scale in the U.S.

The governor promised N100 million, a plot of land for each player, and a coaster bus for the team.
On Thursday, December 16, 2021, Akwa Ibom State Governor, Udom Emmanuel, made mouth-watering promises to the 2020/2021 Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) winners Akwa United for winning the state's first-ever league title in their 24 years of existence.
Mr Emmanuel promised the team N100 million, a piece of land in Akwa Ibom State for the players, and a 32-seater bus.
"I have the permission of the entire Exco (Akwa Ibom State Executive Council) to announce that the entire team, all of you, will be given a plot of land each in Akwa Ibom State.
"Because you won the league, we will give you N100 million, so that we encourage you to do more," the governor said.
He made the promise during the trophy presentation by the club chairperson Paul Bassey at the State House with the NFF President Amaju Pinnick in attendance.
Remember that Akwa United won the league with 71 points, five points better than second-placed Enyimba.
PREMIUM TIMES can confirm that, after eight months, those promises are yet to be fulfilled.
Unfulfilled promises: The player's reactions
Under former Coach Kennedy Boboye, Akwa United paraded over 25 players during the 2020/2021 season.
Goalkeepers: Adewale Adeyinka, Jean Efala, Bassey Akpan, David Essien
Defenders: Etboy Akpan, Etim Matthew, Otobong Effiong, Kodjovi Dadzie, David Philip, Sampson Gbadebo, Olisa Ndah, Wilson Elu, Hamisu Saleh, Charles Okafor
Midfielders: Ubong Essien, Dare Ojo, Marshal Johnson, Adam Yakubu, Seth Mayi, Nasiru Jibrin
Forwards: Ubong Friday, Wisdom Fernando, Charles Atshimene, Mfon Udoh, Godswill Nicholas, Akarandut Orok, Sadiq Abbas, Ikechukwu Nwani, Inemesit Sunday
PREMIUM TIMES spoke with some players about the state government's unfulfilled promises.
According to Olisa Ndah, a former member of that squad, the promises have yet to be fulfilled.
Olisa appeared in 15 games for the Uyo-based club before joining Confederation Cup finalists Orlando Pirates in 2021.
"We haven't really heard anything from the N100 million the governor promised. I've not really heard anything about it. I have friends in Akwa United, a lot of them, and we talk daily, even in the management."
Another player, Dare Ojo, who had left Akwa United to Mash'al Mubarak in Uzbekistan early this year, told PREMIUM TIMES that there was nothing to show for the sacrifices the players made for the club.
"That's true because we made a lot of sacrifices for winning the [2020/21] league. Not that easy for us. I don't really know what happened, but the promises, up to this moment, haven't been fulfilled by anyone. The land and 100m, he hasn't fulfilled any.
They promised us N100 million and a plot of land for each player. Up to this moment, we never heard anything from them. It's as if we didn't win anything. For the first time in how many years in Akwa Ibom State, we won the league."
Bitter experience
Akwa United's title-winning Coach, Kennedy Boboye, said he would not like to talk about his experiences with Akwa United as his business with the Uyo-based club was complete.
"They have not given any of those things - both the financial benefits, the land and landed property the governor promised; there is no one that has been fulfilled.
"I don't know. Nothing was said before I left. Please, I don't want to talk about Akwa United. I'm done and dusted."
Boboye directed we speak with the chairperson of the club, Paul Bassey, to find out why the promises were yet to be fulfilled.
"I don't have to. I'm not the chairman of the club, I was just the coach. They have a chairman. His name is Paul Bassey, and he's a retired journalist like you. You can call him for feedback on everything. He's supposed to be the one to get to the club, not me."
Just as Boboye advised, PREMIUM TIMES called Mr Bassey about the N100 million and landed property. The club chairman was reticent and uncomplimentary during the telephone conversation.
"And those in the club have received," Mr Bassey countered when he was told that players who had left the club insinuated the promises have not been redeemed. "Is that your investigation? Young Man, go and sleep! Did you hear me? Quote me, 'go and sleep'.
He then asked rhetorically if the players in the club had received the promises.
"You don't have any news. Players that have left haven't received anything. Those that are here, have they received? I've been a journalist for over 30 years. Do you hear me?" At which point, he hung up.
Players still at the club say no
PREMIUM TIMES extended an extension to speak with players who stayed another season with Promise Keepers after they won the League if they had received the promises, as Mr Bassey suggested.
Based on personal and contractual reasons, Akwa United's players spoke on condition of anonymity.
Two players, still at the club, confirmed they have not given them either the landed property or a share of the N100 million.
"No! They didn't pay anybody, but the governor made a promise to redeem the pledge to us. Nobody should think that maybe we, the players still in the club, have collected money (and not) those that have left the club."
Another player added: "They haven't paid anything since then. We haven't received anything yet from the promises the governor made.
He then added, "the club chairman is still patient about everything, hoping it will still be fulfilled."
AITEO Cup promise made fulfilled three years later
In 2017, Mr Emmanuel made a similar promise to Akwa United players for winning the AITEO Cup. The governor made promised an N70 million largesse, but the redemption manifested in 2020.
His Excellency @MrUdomEmmanuel has reward us @Akwaunitedfc for winning the 2017 Aiteo Cup competition with a cash sum of 70Million Naira.Thank you Governor Udom Emmanuel #Reward#PromiseKeepers pic.twitter.com/CtCUxgj1eN-- Akwa United FC (@AkwaUnited_fc) September 12, 2018
Godspower Iguida, a member of the AITEO Cup winning squad, told PREMIUM TIMES that the money got to the players three years after Mr Emmanuel the promise.
"In our time when we won it, I think it was 2017. They later fulfilled the promise, though it took a lot of time before they gave the money.
"They later paid the money two years back (2020). I was still in the team then.
"The first 18 that featured for the final, I think they were given two million or thereabouts each, while others that were registered, I think some were given between N1.2 and N1.5 million."
Commissioner refuses to comment
Just like Mr Bassey, who was discourteous about the cash gift and landed property, the state commissioner for Sports also refused to speak.
Monday Uko is the Akwa Ibom State Commissioner for Youth and Sports. He also attended the occasion when the governor made the promises to the players. But despite having the authority to speak about the governor's cash and land gifts, he declined to do so with our reporter.
"I'm not going to answer you on that. I'm not going to answer that question.
"Do you have any other questions?"
Faint hopes for redemption
A former defender, Olisa has almost given up on redemption of the governor's promises.
"I still hope maybe one day, but I lost interest in it. I already forgot about it and I have even forgotten I won the NPFL. Actually, it's just as if we just won an FA Cup or something."
Ndah represents many other players who have given up on the promises from the governor. A player still at the club spoke about how difficult it might be to get the land if the Governor leaves office.
"What I'm worried about is the land. Some players are no longer in the club. Some aren't in the country. By the time they will allocate the land, we might not be in the state. For me, we are just pleading and urging the Government before leaving, that he should pay it. If he can redeem the pledge for us, it's going to be for the goodness of his name and we too, the players that suffered for the league title, will benefit from it."
As things stand, if the recent promises made and fulfilled follow the steps of the previous ones, it may become impossible for the players to get either the money or the land because Mr Emmanuel has only nine months left in office.
But they continue to hope. | https://allafrica.com/stories/202208290395.html | 2022-08-29T11:18:14Z | https://allafrica.com/stories/202208290395.html | false | 1 |
Britain is facing a shortage of pumpkins this Halloween as growers warn poor weather has reduced their harvest by as much as a third.
Supermarkets are already grappling with the fall-out from this year's drought, prompting Lidl and Waitrose to start selling more "wonky" fruit and vegetables in an effort to keep shelves stocked.
Pumpkin growers warned that this may be trickier with their crops, as they operate in a "time-limited market so people tend to grow their acreage to what they think demand will be".
Guy French, who together with his wife Emily runs Foxes Farm Produce, one of the UK's leading pumpkin wholesale growers, said it came down to the model, where "pumpkins are worth something on October 31 and then nothing on November 1".
This means, when there is a drought as there has been this year and the yield is down, "you get a shortage".
Foxes Farm has been picking since August 15, and said yield this year was down between a quarter to a third.
Mr French said: "The quality of the pumpkin is good - the skin finish is good, they're a really good orange. But the drought has had a knock-on impact on yield. You just haven't got the volume there."
He said he expected there to be "some sort of shortage", with Foxes Farm having already sold out of the pumpkins it sells for event-planners to run pumpkin patches or for their Halloween events.
He added: "That's unusual, and that's partly down to reduced yield but also increased inequities because of what the yield is like elsewhere in the country."
The comments come amid calls for ministers to act to help shore up food security, after a summer which has seen farmers struggling with the driest July on record and labour shortages which have made it harder to pick crops quickly.
Farmers are also wrangling with surging energy prices, which are expected to feed across into higher prices on the supermarket shelves.
Mr French said: "We are selling at a higher price, but the main factor for that is our input costs. We always say to customers, if you think the price of filling up your car with diesel has doubled, think of what it does for a tractor. And then our fertiliser costs are also up because of the war in Ukraine." | https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2022/08/29/britain-faces-shortage-pumpkins-halloween/ | 2022-08-29T11:20:39Z | https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2022/08/29/britain-faces-shortage-pumpkins-halloween/ | true | 1 |

Dumka killing: Deceased cremated, Section 144 imposed
Ankita Singh, who succumbed to injuries after being set ablaze by a boy for allegedly turning down his proposal, was cremated on Monday morning.
- Country:
- India
Ankita Singh, who succumbed to injuries after being set ablaze by a boy for allegedly turning down his proposal, was cremated on Monday morning. Accused Shahrukh was arrested on August 23. People protested after the Class 12 girl was set ablaze by Shahrukh in Dumka.
She succumbed to her burn injuries yesterday. Meanwhile, Section 144 has been imposed in Dumka which prohibits the gathering of four or more people in the concerned area. Chief Minister Hemant Soren said, "Such people should not be forgiven, they should be given the strictest of punishments. Laws should be brought in to further strengthen the existing laws for such incidents."
"A lot of evil acts are being seen in society. This incident is heart-wrenching and the law is taking its course. The accused has been arrested. It is our effort to see that he is punished at the earliest," Soren added. Former Jharkhand CM Raghubar Das said, "It is very shameful for Jahrakhand the way that boy entered the girl's house, poured petrol and set her ablaze. There have been thousands of crimes against women in Jharkhand after Hemant Soren became Chief Minister. There are love jihad cases also among the tribal population. The people from Bangladesh are entering and marrying innocent tribal girls and usurping their land."
Union minister Arjun Munda questioned the state administration for the death of the girl. He said, "Who is responsible for such incidents? Were appropriate measures taken to save the victim or not? If the victim dies, how will the guilty be punished? The state government should answer on all these subjects and to maintain the confidence of the public, the government should give a statement that what is the law and order situation for these incidents which are happening in Jharkhand." "The accused Shahrukh has been arrested. We'll apply at fast track court for a fast trial. People are cooperating with us. We appeal to people to maintain peace. The situation is under control and Sec 144 has been imposed," said Dumka SP Ambar Lakda.
BJP MP from Dumka Sunil Soren, Deputy Development Commissioner Karna Satyarthi, DSP Vijay Kumar and many administrative officials, activists and common people of various Hindu organizations participated in the funeral procession. Police are interrogating another accused Chhotu Khan alias Naeem, who is in custody. The police said that the situation is normal and under control.
BJP MP Sunil Soren said, "Jharkhand is saddened by this incident. The administration should have been alert." He demanded the hearing of the case in a fast-track court and demanded capital punishment for the culprits. DSP Vijay Kumar said, "The entire matter is being monitored by senior officers. The situation is normal and under control. Efforts are being made to hear the matter at the earliest. One more accused has been identified and interrogated in this case."
Hindu Rashtra Sangh activist Aman Raj has demanded strict action against the culprits. Reacting to the matter, Jharkhand Health Minister Banna Gupta said stringent action will be taken against perpetrators ensuring a fast trial.
"The state government is serious regarding the murder of a girl in Dumka. Stringent action will be taken against perpetrators. We will ensure a fast trial. We have talked to DC in this regard," Gupta said. Accused Shahrukh poured petrol on her and set her ablaze on August 23. She was set on fire in a case of unrequited love. A student of class 12, Ankita Kumari had been first admitted to Phulo Jhano Medical College and Hospital in Dumka in critical condition. Later she was referred to Ranchi's Rajendra Institute of Medical Science (RIMS) for better treatment.
The accused had allegedly poured petrol on the woman through the window of her home when she was asleep and set her on fire. Meanwhile, a video of the accused smiling in police custody has surfaced online. The accused, Abhishek, could be seen smiling casually when he was being taken to a police vehicle.
One of the social media users commented 'shameless smile'. Akhilesh Kant Jha tweeted, "See the shameless #Smile of Shahrukh. He has no regrets after burning a Hindu girl to de@th, even after being arrested. #JusticeForAnkita". Meanwhile, the NCW takes cognizance on the Dunka incident.
"Since arrest already made we asked Jharkhand DGP for action taken report. There's a mindset that you forcefully ask a woman to marry you&if she refuses, set her ablaze-it's pathetic.There should be conversation on this," said NCW chief on death of a girl after being set ablaze in Dumka. (ANI)

Candidates could spend a total of $1 billion to run for president in 2008. Former Democratic Party Chairman Terry McAuliffe says that this time, candidates can't be taken seriously unless they have serious money.
Even after Congress passed a law limiting certain campaign contributions, there's more money in the system than ever. We've reached one of the best in the business at asking for money — and getting yes for an answer.
McAuliffe, Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign chairman, was the party's top fundraiser when Bill Clinton was president. With the accelerated primary calendar, McAuliffe tells Renee Montagne, the race for the parties' nomination could be over by next February. Candidates will have to raise at least $35 million this year to be in the game, he says.
McAuliffe is the author of What a Party!, a book about his life in politics.

Ottawa continued its mysterious deference to China. What happened to the promised reset?
As we mark the sixth anniversary of Vladimir Putin’s assault on Ukraine and the world order, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced the creation of a task force in Canada to counter the Kremlin’s rampaging disinformation campaign.
There is a real need to tackle this threat to the concept of truth, which is the basis of democracy and human rights. But why limit the team’s mandate to the lies of a single offender? This essentially signals to China that Ottawa will not respond to the more lavishly funded propaganda program from Chinese embassies and consulates across Canada.
Chinese leader Xi Jinping touts the move as one of the Chinese Communist Party’s “magic weapons” of domestic and global manipulation. It was used to sabotage World Health Organization research into the origins of COVID-19; suppress the truth surrounding the genocide against the Uyghurs; and deter influential Canadians from promoting actions that threaten Beijing’s espionage efforts, including Canada’s security and technology partnerships with our allies.
The propaganda campaign, which includes conspiracy theories promulgated by pro-Beijing Chinese-language media in Canada, threatens our democracy. This has already cost Chinese Canadian MPs their seats in the last election, and since we are doing nothing about it, we can expect more in the next election. Chinese-language media incitement includes accusations of pervasive racism against anyone in Canada of Chinese descent. Readers of WeChat and other Chinese platforms are implored to respond by identifying with the motherland and becoming loyal to the Chinese Communist Party.
The disinformation campaign also denounces Canadian citizens of Chinese descent – such as Xiao Jianhua, Huseyin Celil and approximately 300,000 Canadians residing in Hong Kong – as “Chinese-Canadian passport holders”, implying lesser Canadian citizenship than European-Canadian passport holders who are simply Canadian, without hyphenated modifiers.
Ottawa’s refusal to confront this harassment of Tibetans, Uyghurs, Falun Gong and Chinese democracy activists in Canada is shameful. In 2020, then-foreign minister Francois-Philippe Champagne promised action, but nothing happened. Last year, Rob Oliphant, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, said Canada was “actively considering” a registry of foreign agents (similar to US and Australian measures) to counter malicious Chinese activity in Canada. But it was obviously an empty promise to assuage Canadian resentment over China’s subversive operations here.
Canada seems unable to do anything about China, due to the incompatibility of Ottawa’s doctrine that we must maintain close relations with Beijing, regardless of public opinion. When the Chinese ambassador in Ottawa threatened Canada with crossing a “red line” on Taiwan, warning officials to learn lessons from the past (read: hostage diplomacy) if our MPs set foot in Taiwan, our first minister did not even condemn the remarks, but simply urged MPs to consider the “consequences” of such a visit.
The government seems in a similar paralysis over the appointment of a new ambassador to China, a position that has not been filled throughout 2022. Whoever is appointed will inherit the dark shadow of our last two ambassadors. – John McCallum and Dominic Barton – who have personal business connections in China. and were seen as promoting Beijing’s interests over those of Canada. When it comes to Chinese diplomacy, Canadians increasingly assume that conflicts of interest will trump Canada’s national interests and moral integrity.
Last June, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mélanie Joly, announced the formation of the Indo-Pacific Advisory Committee. After five years of promising a China policy reset, informed sources say that the government’s China policy supporters on this committee are debating how to exclude any mention of China from our Indo- peaceful.
As this theater of the absurd drags on, the absence of a principled China policy is shaking any faith the United States and other allies have in Ottawa’s jurisdiction.
Unfortunately, based on performance so far, there is no sign of a meaningful China “reset” coming out of Ottawa before the next federal election.

BAGHDAD: Iraq’s powerful Shiite cleric Moqtada Al Sadr said on Monday that he was quitting politics and closing his institutions in response to an intractable political deadlock.
“I hereby announce my final withdrawal,” Sadr said in a statement posted on Twitter.
He criticised fellow Shiite political leaders for failing to heed his calls for reform. He did not elaborate on the closure of his offices, but said that some of his cultural and religious institutions would remain open.
Sadr withdrew his lawmakers from parliament in June after he failed to form a government of his choosing. A political impasse between him and Shiite rivals close to Iran has given Iraq its longest run without a government.
Supporters of Sadr have since the end of July occupied parliament and protested near government buildings, halting the process to choose a new president and prime minister.
Monday’s announcement raised fears that Sadr’s supporters might escalate their protests, fuelling a new phase of instability in Iraq. | https://gulfnews.com/world/mena/iraqs-sadr-says-he-is-quitting-politics-1.90193712 | 2022-08-29T11:30:05Z | https://gulfnews.com/world/mena/iraqs-sadr-says-he-is-quitting-politics-1.90193712 | true | 1 |

Latest on Trump Mar-a-Lago InquiryExBulletin
NPR’s Don Gonyea speaks with former Acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal about the FBI’s investigation into classified documents at former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate.
DON GONYEA, HOST:
Many questions remain about what will happen now that the heavily redacted 38-page affidavit that authorized the Mar-a-Lago search has been made public. The document, which was released on Friday, outlines the FBI’s investigation into classified documents held by former President Trump. Reading between the blackened redactions, we discovered boxes of documents containing 184 classified documents, 25 of which were marked top secret. The mishandling of these documents is part of what the FBI is investigating. We wanted to understand what might happen next, so we called Neal Katyal. He is the former Acting Solicitor General of the United States and is now a law professor at Georgetown University. Neal Katyal, welcome.
NEAL KATYAL: Thank you.
GONYEA: Before we get to what happens next, what was your main takeaway from the unsealed affidavit?
KATYAL: Well, the judge last week warned that when he was going to order the release of the redacted document, he thought there would be so many redactions and blackouts that the release document was going to be, in quotes, ” unintelligible”. And I must say that it is not unintelligible. I mean, it already tells a compelling and damning story of Donald Trump committing serious federal crimes.
GONYEA: Do you think this new information will force the Department of Justice to charge the former president with a crime?
KATYAL: I know it. You know, obviously every criminal case is going to involve all kinds of facts and circumstances, and we don’t know about all of them. The evidence already presented in the affidavit, coupled with Donald Trump’s knowledge of this and intentional retention of these documents, makes it incredibly difficult for the Justice Department to look the other way. I mean, the way you think about this at the department is if we drop this one, what do we say to future employees? Because classified information is, of course, held by many people within the United States government. And if Donald Trump can get away with these extremely, extremely sensitive documents, that sends a terrible message to everyone.
GONYEA: If I can ask you to put on a defense attorney’s hat for a moment, what argument do you imagine Trump and his attorneys will use to explain why he kept these documents?
KATYAL: Yeah. I think the first one was filed, and that’s actually something the affidavit addresses, that these documents are no longer classified. It’s kind of a crazy argument that he had a standing order to declassify anything because that would mean you and I can see this very sensitive information about human spies in the field and such. And that’s just incredibly implausible. The other problem with the defense is that when reading the affidavit, it seems they’re not only thinking about accusing Trump of misusing classified and national security information and mishandling it, but also obstruction of justice. If a defendant knowingly concealed or destroyed documents, and did so to obstruct the official work of a federal agency, it could carry a sentence of up to 20 years.
It appears from the affidavit that this is what happened here. Obviously, we don’t know Trump’s side of the story. Trump might say, hey, that wasn’t intentional. I did not know. But the problem with this is that Trump himself corroborates information on his social media account about his own role in this. And it appears from the affidavit that Donald Trump’s handwriting was found on these highly classified documents.
GONYEA: One last thing I’d like your opinion on – last night a federal judge in Florida, after receiving a request from Trump’s attorneys, said she intended to appoint an independent arbitrator, known as the name of special master, to examine the documents seized by the FBI. Briefly, can you tell us what a special master is and what it says about the direction of the investigation?
KATYAL: It’s not particularly serious. A special master is sometimes used in criminal investigations, usually when there is attorney-client information that has been seized by authorities and the search target says, hey, I want this material back to me. It’s mine. The government cannot review it. Here, Donald Trump did not actually look for a special master for attorney-client information. He said there was information protected by executive privilege because he was president, and the FBI could not review it. And what the judge did was say, well, you know, I’m inclined to appoint a special master to look into it. At most, even if the special master searched the documents, it could mean that some were referred to Trump. But these are all documents, at this point, that the FBI and the Justice Department have already seen and can assess whether they are classified or not.
And as to the merits of the claim, you know, there’s no idea, really, that President Trump now has executive privilege documents. It is the current President, Joe Biden, who decides executive privilege under Supreme Court precedent, with very, very limited exceptions. And none of those really seem to work here. And of course, it’s kind of weird to think that executive privilege is asserted against the executive itself because the FBI and the Department of Justice are part of the executive. So overall, I think it’s a big nothing. It will just be a procedural hoop for the Justice Department to walk through.
GONYEA: It was the former United States Acting Solicitor General, Neal Katyal. Neil, thank you.
KATYAL: Thank you.

STEVE INSKEEP, host:
Here's a quote from a former insider describing the run up to the war in Iraq. "There was never a serious debate that I know of within the administration about the imminence of the Iraqi threat." Those are the words of former CIA Director George Tenet who is defending his actions in the months leading up to the war.
Tenet makes that statement on a new book called "At the Center of the Storm." The New York Times obtained a copy before next week's official release. There's a report in the book in today's paper. Mark Mazetti is one of the reporters who wrote it. He's on the line. Mr. Mazetti, welcome to the program.
Mr. MARK MAZZETTI (Reporter, New York Times): Thanks for having me.
INSKEEP: What did George Tenet say was missing from that debate before the war?
Mr. MAZZETTI: Well he says that there was never a debate about whether the threat was imminent from Iraq, whether they could have contained Saddam Hussein without an invasion. He does not say that he all along knew there wasn't weapons of mass destruction. In fact, he says in the book that he thought there were weapons of mass destruction, but he says there wasn't a debate about other options besides an invasion.
INSKEEP: So they started with a question of how do we go to war rather than a question of how do we solve this problem and how big is the problem?
Mr. MAZZETTI: That's right. He describes a Bush administration that after September 11th was, in many ways, hell bent on going to war with Iraq. And some of the people he cites as being particularly eager for it are Vice President Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz and other Pentagon officials.
INSKEEP: Well this is a period when George Tenet was the head of the CIA. He's frequently right at the president's elbow or right across from the desk the president perhaps. How did he described his role on that time?
Mr. MAZZETTI: Well Tenet describes his role as that of not policymaker but intelligence chief, the person who provides the information so that policymakers can make decisions about whether or not to, for instance, go to war. Now some would debate that it would be absurd for someone to say that they could be sitting in all these meetings and providing intelligence and not have an active role in the debate. But Tenet talks about how he provided the intelligence about WMD and how he was very skeptical about the purported link between Iraq and al-Qaida, which was cited as one of the reasons to go to war.
INSKEEP: Wait a minute. He's skeptical about those links, which the CIA was - based on all evidence, but it was also Tenet who said the words that maybe he's at risk of having on his tombstone. He was asked if there are weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and he said that's a slam dunk.
Mr. MAZZETTI: And Tenet spends an entire chapter of his book on this. In fact, the chapter is titled Slam Dunk. And he says in the book if he hadn't actually said those words he might never have written the book. And his explanation of the slam-dunk episode is that it happened during a meeting in December 2002, and they were discussing how to make a public case for the war and a draft presentation had been given in the Oval office. And the president was underwhelmed. And Tenet chimed in that it was a, quote, "slam dunk" to improve the public case for war. That's his explanation for the comment.
INSKEEP: He's saying he wasn't talking about the underlying evidence? He was talking about what PR you could make out of it?
Mr. MAZZETTI: He's saying, in a way, yes. He's saying that you could - it was a slam dunk to make a better case. The slam-dunk reference he said was not talking specifically about the intelligence for the Iraq war.
INSKEEP: Mr. Mazzetti, thanks very much.
Mr. MAZZETTI: All right, thanks.
INSKEEP: Mark Mazzetti is a reporter for The New York Times. He's been reading George Tenet's new book "At the Center of the Storm," which will be formally published next week.
And we do have an early response from the White House about George Tenet's book. A senior White House counselor, Dan Bartlett, has been talking to the NBC Today Show, and he says, quote, "the president did wrestle with those various serious questions." Bartlett goes on to say that George Tenet is a true patriotic that suggested he might have been unaware of how broadly the situation was debated before the war in Iraq.

I don’t understand why Americans become so furious when the government does anything to help members of the working class. Without any real understanding of the student loan forgiveness proposal, many people are frothing at the mouth.
“If you wanted to improve the country by disbursing billions of tax dollars, you would help people…who worked hard to pay [their] debts,” [Tucker] Carlson said of the measure which in total eliminates upwards of $300 billion in loans—Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity Rage Against ‘Suicidal’ Student Loan Forgiveness on Fox News
But why would he say something like that? How does he know that the people who receive student loan debt forgiveness haven’t worked hard to pay their debts? They’re Americans after all. Don’t Americans work hard?
People who go to college are people with drive and ambition. They seek to better themselves. It’s good for our country to reward people who work hard and try to make a greater impact.
People are flooding the internet with demands that people repay their debts. Other people are pointing out that not paying off debt has been an American standard for rich people for generations.
Twitter users saw irony in the House Judiciary Committee Republicans’ post, and mentioned both GOP representatives and former President Donald Trump, who reportedly haven’t paid back their debts—Rep. Jim Jordan's Cry To Repay Loans Unintentionally Targets Fellow Republicans
It’s almost as if all the social media responses and all the news stories are fake. How can the American public be so angry about the government helping the working class, and fail to say anything when the government gives free money to the rich?
Here’s an excerpt from an article about how Trump’s CARES act had many provisions that were designed to send money to the wealthy.
So let me show you five provisions of the legislation that benefited the upper middle class (including yours truly); the families of Donald Trump and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner; high-income people who make large charitable donations; and Boeing and other corporations that are showing losses; as well as indirectly benefited people who have substantial investments in U.S. stocks—The CARES Act Sent You a $1,200 Check but Gave Millionaires and Billionaires Far More
Don’t you think it’s weird that far-right media sources never offer any criticism over the billions of dollars that go straight to the rich?
Why is it considered a problem for the government to help people who work, and not a problem to help rich people who don’t need any assistance?
The narrative simply doesn’t make sense.
I write this as a person who paid off education costs less than two years ago. My wife opted for some higher education, and I considered applying for loans in the hope that they might be forgiven. Eventually, I decided that it would be less complicated to simply pay the expense as I went. I didn’t want to get embroiled in interest payments, and the overall cost wasn’t that high.
I’m fortunate that I had the means to pay these expenses, but we are by no means a rich family. What my experience taught me is that the type of people who apply for student loans are motivated people who need the loans.
It’s time that we come together as Americans and help our fellow citizens. The media narrative against student loan forgiveness is malicious and wrong. I don’t understand why there is no equivalent narrative when banks and other big industries get much larger government payments.
From an article published in 2020:
In the latest sign that even the soberest of American economic policymakers are freaked out by the coronavirus, the Federal Reserve announced on Thursday it's going to drop an extra $1.5 trillion on the financial system—The Fed's $1.5 trillion intervention, explained
If you start digging into the facts, you’ll notice that the only reason rich people are rich is that the government gives them money all the time. It’s bizarre that when the government makes good on a promise to help out people who work, the media has a fit.
Working class people, people with jobs, should celebrate any government action that benefits other working-class people. Remember, there’s never any reason to give money directly to banks. When you give money to regular people, it ends up trickling over to the banks anyway.
People use stimulus funds to pay off mortgages, car payments, and other expenses. Most of the time, those checks are written to banks. Therefore, if stimulus payments go directly to the people, they end up serving two branches of our society rather than just one.
Student loan forgiveness is good for our society. The kicker is that the total amount of money dedicated to student loan forgiveness is still much lower than what is routinely handed over to big businesses. All Americans must get some perspective and see how they’re being manipulated by a false media narrative. | https://original.newsbreak.com/@walter-rhein-563121/2719124844251-opinion-why-are-americans-angry-about-student-loan-forgiveness-but-not-bank-bailouts | 2022-08-29T11:53:54Z | https://original.newsbreak.com/@walter-rhein-563121/2719124844251-opinion-why-are-americans-angry-about-student-loan-forgiveness-but-not-bank-bailouts | false | 1 |

Cloud-based cybersecurity company CrowdStrike (NASDAQ:CRWD) will report Q2 fiscal 2023 earnings on Tuesday, August 30, 2022, after the market closes.
The company will host a conference call following the earnings release that investors can tune in to here.
CrowdStrike guided for $513 million to $517 million in sales this quarter and $2.2 billion for the full fiscal year. Revenue will achieve 52% year-over-year (YOY) growth in Q2 and for the fiscal year by reaching these numbers.
Palo Alto Networks' (PANW) strong results and excellent guidance offer clues that are encouraging for CrowdStrike and the entire cybersecurity industry. Palo Alto beat on revenue and non-GAAP earnings-per-share, and the optimistic guidance caused the stock to jump, as shown below.
It's too early to tell if the gains will be sustainable, especially given the market's temper tantrum on Friday. However, one of the most encouraging metrics Palo Alto posted was a massive jump in billings.
The 44% gain in billings outpaced the 27% gain in revenue, indicating that sales should continue growing significantly. Palo Alto's remaining performance obligation (RPO) also jumped to $8.2 billion, or 40% higher than a year ago. RPO is another leading indicator of revenue growth. Strong demand is an industry-wide trend that should buoy cybersecurity leaders.
There are rumors that CrowdStrike is targeting an Israeli firm for an acquisition that could approach $2 billion. Israel is a hotbed for cybersecurity startups, and CrowdStrike faces competition from Israeli-founded companies like SentinelOne (S).
There is precedent here: CrowdStrike acquired Preempt Security in 2020 to boost Zero Trust. Alphabet (GOOG)(GOOGL) has also dipped into these waters, recently acquiring Siemplify for around $500 million. CrowdStrike needs to stay on the cutting edge and acquiring innovative startups before competitors swallow them is essential.
Reporting on CrowdStrike's plan has been minimal, but there could be an announcement made on the earnings call or a hint from management if they are asked about the rumors.
As always, there are some key metrics to watch for CrowdStrike. They can indicate future catalysts or warn investors of dangerous trends. This is even more vital with a fast-growing, difficult-to-value software company.
The first metric I look for in each earnings release is the number of subscription customers and the gains made in the quarter. CrowdStrike spends a tremendous amount on sales and marketing (S&M) to attract new customers, and investors need to know they are getting terrific results. The chart below shows the company's revenue and S&M expenses for the past several quarters.
As we can see, CrowdStrike spent 34% of revenue on sales last quarter on a non-GAAP basis and 40% on a GAAP basis. So far, it appears to be working.
The company has been phenomenal at luring customers, as shown below.
Customers reached 17,945 last quarter on 57% gains. The percentage growth will shrink as the numbers rise; however, the total number gained will hopefully accelerate. Look for CrowdStrike to report 19,300 on the low end and 20,000 if they have an absolute blockbuster.
Dollar-based net retention (DBNR) rate measures the amount of revenue provided by existing clients from year to year. For instance, existing customers spend more with the company this year than last; the DBNR will be over 100%.
This is vitally important to CrowdStrike because of the massive investment in S&M and because much of its success will hinge on convincing customers to adopt more modules. Organic sales growth is less expensive than attracting new customers and entrenches clients with the business.
CrowdStrike set a goal of 120% or above for the fiscal 2023 DBNR. They achieved this in Q1, and investors should look for this in Q2 as well. In fact, CrowdStrike has exceeded 120% each quarter since Q1 FY19. Anything less than 120% would be concerning.
Of course, we can't look at CrowdStrike's results without discussing the top-line revenue figure and annual recurring revenue (ARR). ARR is total subscription revenue annualized. ARR is an excellent leading indicator of sales growth.
CrowdStrike reported $1.9 billion ARR last quarter, 61% YOY growth. The company would need ARR to reach $2.16 billion this quarter to keep up this pace. Anything over this would be a terrific win. This quarter, look for ARR to hit $2.1 billion as a solid benchmark.
Free cash flow (FCF) has seen a dramatic improvement as CrowdStrike has grown. This is an indication that the business model will be profitable at scale. CrowdStrike reported $293 million in FCF in FY21 and $442 million in FY22. Last quarter saw a record $158 million, putting the company on pace to exceed $600 million this fiscal year. FCF can fluctuate for several one-off reasons, but investors should expect an FCF margin above 30%.
Cybersecurity is a high-growth industry with the potential to accelerate. There is always a catalyst lurking. Cyberattacks and breaches are commonplace and becoming a standard during conflicts. This means that companies, organizations, and governments must protect against criminals looking to profit, state-sponsored attackers, and everything in between.
CrowdStrike continues to be a leader in the industry and may be seeking to add to its repertoire through acquisition. If the company does not announce, an analyst should ask the question during the earnings call, and the answer could provide clues.
The price-to-sales (P/S) and price-to-free cash flow (P/FCF) ratios have come down this year but are still indicative of a company with massive growth ahead. Industry trends point to CrowdStrike beating estimates, but a miss will cause short-term pain to inventors. Beyond the headline figures, watch the metrics above closely.
