Watch: Pakistan nearly make a mess of Rohit Sharma's catch
Pakistan nearly made a meal of the catching opportunity that a firing Rohit Sharma offered to them in Dubai.
Rohit Sharma got his team off to a brisk start in the India-Pakistan rematch at the Asia Cup 2022 game in Dubai on Sunday (September 4).
The elegant Indian opener blazed his willow for some delightful strokes throughout his blistering cameo of 28 off 16 deliveries.
Losing the toss on a good batting surface, the right-hander looked intent on ensuring India maximised the field-restriction phase and smashed 3 fours and 2 sixes in his innings.
But just when Rohit Sharma was setting his eyes at a substantial score, the Indian captain got out caught off a top-edge while attempting another big hit down the ground.
Pakistan, though, nearly messed up the catch on offer from the Indian batter with two of their players colliding and almost letting go of an easy opportunity to earn their first breakthrough.
Pakistan's near mishap for Rohit Sharma's catch
The near mishap is from the beginning of the sixth over in the Indian first-innings batting effort. Facing a full-pitched delivery outside off from seamer Haris Rauf, Rohit Sharma ended up mistiming his attempted big hit down the ground and got a top-edge that flew towards the mid-off region.
Placed there, Khushdil Shah was in for a comfortable catch until his teammate Fakhar Zaman tried to also make the grab in his hands in a school-boy error where none of the two made a call to the other and declared it's "mine".
With his eyes held up, Fakhar tried to fetch for the ball, not knowing Shah is about to take the catch at his position. The two cricketers collided badly, but thanks to Shah not losing his ground, he was able to retain his hold of the ball and give Pakistan the wicket they desperately needed.

After taking the catch, Shah looked towards Fakhar and offered him a grin with a sigh of relief taken by both the cricketers, considering Rohit Sharma's was a massive wicket in context of the match. Batting on 28 off 15 in the middle, Rohit was intent on putting a further dent into the Pakistan bowling plans and make life significantly easier for the rest of the Indian batting unit. | https://cricxtasy.com/news/rohit-sharma-catch-that-pakistan-nearly-messed-asia-cup/cid8441839.htm | 2022-09-04T16:19:41Z | https://cricxtasy.com/news/rohit-sharma-catch-that-pakistan-nearly-messed-asia-cup/cid8441839.htm | true | 1 |
Is there beef simmering between Power actors Joseph Sikora and Gianna Paolo? Based on some recent Instagram exchanges, it sure does seem that is the case.
It looks like there can only be one gangsta drug-dealing caucasian in the Power Universe. Things got interesting in Houston last week when 50 Cent and Joe performed Power’s beloved theme song, “Big Rich Town.” During the performance, stars from the hit series, including Sikora and Paolo, hopped on the stage.
In a video, Paolo, who plays Brayden on the Power spinoff, Power Book II: Ghost, can be seen walking around the stage dapping up his colleagues, but when he gets to Sikora, he gets paid in dust.
Until that exchange, there was never any indication the two actors didn’t like each other. Paolo made them evident when he took to social media to address the video.
Tommy & Brayden Definitely Have Issues
“You pressed? I would be too,” Paolo boldly said in a video shared on Instagram, also adding in the caption that “some ppl are just insecure.” Sikora later hopped in former Love & Hip-Hop star Hazel-E’s comments and claimed the two actors patched up whatever issues they had, but Paolo called cap on those claims.
“We saw each other at the hotel afterward and talked,” Sikora commented. “All good. *thumbs up emoji*.”
“Listen I was gonna leave this shit alone but ppl keep sending me this and this dude just straight up telling lies,” Paolo clapped back. “It’s not ‘all good.’ I asked him in the elevator what his deal was with me cause he’s been doing this shit for years when I’ve shown nothing but respect and love. He kept just saying he doesn’t fuck with me. Nothing was resolved. Stop spreading lies cause people are pressing you about your saltiness.”
“Season 6 of Power he was the nicest guy in the world to me. Then when Ghost happened everything switched up. If you’re gonna try and pretend like shit is resolved for social media cause you’re mad everybody is asking why a 47-year-old man is throwing shade at someone who everybody fucks with then at least do better then that my guy.”
Paolo added in a separate post that Sikora has been “doing this sh*t behind closed doors for years” and calling him “grandpop.”
Sikora finally broke his silence on the matter, sharing a photo of his character Tommy and writing in the caption for the post, “Ever think about the reason you have a job??? Chill out Brayden.”
Well damn
50 Cent Chooses A Side
Power’s executive producer, 50 Cent, being the instigator and social media troll he is decided to chime, and he chose a side, and no surprise, he’s down with team Tommy.
“Oh shit, it’s up!” The “In Da Club” rapper wrote alongside a screenshot of Paolo’s Instagram Story. “Now I never like to start shit but you should sock him Tommy. Wait I think this little n***a Brayden got a knife. lol.
Is this a legitimate beef? Or is this just some way to excite fans for the returns of Power Book II: Ghost and Power Book IV: Force? It definitely seems these two feel there is not enough room for both of them in the big rich town that is the Power Universe.

MINNEAPOLIS -- President Joe Biden's student loan forgiveness plan could lift crushing debt burdens from millions of borrowers, but the tax man may demand a cut of the relief in some states.
That's because some states tax forgiven debt as income, which means borrowers who are still paying down student loans could owe taxes on as much as $10,000 or even $20,000 that was taken off their bill. In Mississippi, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Arkansas and North Carolina, forgiven student loans will be subject to state income taxes unless they change their laws to conform with a federal tax exemption for student loans, according to a tally by the Tax Foundation, a Washington, D.C.-based think tank.
That dismays Cathy Newman, a Louisiana State University graduate who just took a job teaching freshman biology at the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg. She figures she could end up owing a few hundred dollars of money that she could have kept had she stayed in Louisiana.
Newman said she can come up with the cash because she has a good job, but she knows of a lot of other borrowers who will still be stuck in difficult financial positions even with their loans forgiven.
“If they stay in the state, they could end up with a pretty hefty tax burden if things don't change,” Newman said. “I won't be happy if I have to do it. I can do it. But a lot of people can't.”
More than 40 million Americans could see their student loan debt cut or eliminated under the forgiveness plan Biden announced late last month. The president is erasing $10,000 in federal student loan debt for individuals with incomes below $125,000 a year, or households that earn less than $250,000. He’s canceling an additional $10,000 for those who also used federal Pell Grants to pay for college. But it only applies to those whose loans were paid out before July 1, which leaves out current high school seniors and students who will follow them.
Although having $10,000 or $20,000 in loan payments eliminated will be a boon over the long term to borrowers who qualify, those in the affected states might be required to declare that as income. Depending on a state's tax rates, the taxpayer's other income and the deductions and exemptions they're able to claim, that could add up to several hundred extra tax dollars that they'll owe.
Spokespeople for tax agencies in several states — including Virginia, Idaho, New York, West Virginia, Pennsylvania and Kentucky — told The Associated Press that their states definitely won’t tax student loans forgiven under Biden’s program. Revenue officials in a few other states said they needed to do more research to know.
Newman, 38, went into debt to pay for graduate school. She had already set herself up for relief under the federal Public Service Loan Forgiveness program, though that requires five more years of teaching on top of the five she already taught at the University of Louisiana Monroe. Biden's program would cut $10,000 off her debt load when it takes effect, but under existing Mississippi tax law, the relief won't come free.
“It's not a huge burden for me, but it could be for a lot of other people, which is what I'm worried about, especially if it's unexpected, and I think a lot of people don't realize that,” Newman said.
Any relief in states that would tax the forgiven debt would have to come from their Legislatures. Leaders of the Minnesota Legislature and Democratic Gov. Tim Walz have indicated in recent media interviews that there's broad support for a fix, which could come during the 2023 session, or even earlier on the remote chance of a special session.
In Wisconsin, Democratic Gov. Tony Evers’ administration plans to propose a fix in the state budget next year, but that would have to be approved by the Republican-controlled Legislature. And Evers needs to get reelected in November before he can formally make that request. Republican legislative leaders and Evers' GOP challenger, Tim Michels, did not reply to messages seeking comment on the student loan tax issue.
However, in Mississippi, the chairman of the state Senate committee in charge of taxes said he's willing to take a look when the Legislature convenes next year. Republican state Sen. Josh Harkins, of Brandon, said he needs to learn more about what his state's tax laws say on debt forgiveness.
“I'm sure people will want to look at adjusting that or making some changes in the law, but a lot of factors have to be considered,” Harkins said, noting that Mississippi enacted its biggest-ever tax cut earlier this year and adding that he wants to gauge the impact of inflation before making big tax policy decisions. “This all just hit in the last week.”

Why deaths by suicide are rising worldwide
“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams,” said Eleanor Roosevelt, who was once the First Lady of the US. We must prevent our faith in the beauty of our dreams from being shaken. This is the only way to save us all
It had been a rainy evening, and the downpour had soaked all of us deep inside. While this was going on, my friend’s literary and vivacious wife began to say, “How hypocritical are people here that they term suicide as an act of cowardice. How can people who put up with pain caused by their own actions be labelled cowards? For this, a lot of courage is required.” Her remark reminded me of the National Crime Records Bureau’s most recent report. The number of suicides in India has increased by 7.2% in the most recent year, i.e. 2021. During this time, more than 164,000 suicide cases were reported. The number of suicides has increased since 1967.
Were the people who died by suicide bravehearts?
A careful examination of the data reveals that this argument has no foundation at all. It is true that every human being has a proclivity for self-harm. According to the data, the number of men forced to end their lives due to financial difficulties has seen an unprecedented increase. Daily wage workers make up the majority of this group. This category accounted for more than a quarter of all suicides.
Not only that, suicidal tendencies have increased in people who want to achieve financial affluence through self-employment. This category accounts for 12.3% of the total cases, which is an astounding figure. Domestic violence and discord, too, have emerged as leading causes of suicide. Is the concept of a nuclear family destroying marriages?
Many sociologists agree that India has done an excellent job of eradicating poverty since 1991, but along with it there has also been a significant increase in aspirations. Since the agricultural system was unable to feed the large population of our villages, people were forced to migrate at an alarming rate to cities and metropolises for jobs. This continuous cycle upends the “value system” of a large segment of the population. This is also a major cause of the rise in depression. In mid-2020, a survey conducted by health platform GOQII using cutting-edge smart technology discovered that 43% of Indians suffer from depression for various reasons.
Doesn’t this figure amaze you?
It’s no surprise that people in more affluent regions have a higher rate of suicide. Four metros — Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Bengaluru — alone accounted for 35% of all suicides in the country’s 53 major cities. A large number of people have migrated and live in these metropolises and their suburbs. It is also worth noting that, despite having fewer suicides this year, Delhi remained at the top.
The people of Delhi, if they so desire, can learn from this fact.
Is this something that is happening only in India? No, the situation is even worse in other countries. According to the most recent global statistics, the number of suicides has risen even in affluent countries such as Belgium, Japan, China, Sweden, South Korea and Russia. Though Sweden ranks seventh in the Happiness Index, there are numerous suicides there. One reason for this is the statutory right to euthanasia for patients suffering from incurable diseases.
You might be surprised to learn that people from war-torn countries such as South Sudan, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Libya, Tunisia, Nigeria and Iraq are proving to be more resilient. They are in a better position than countries considered more developed and peaceful. Afghanistan ranks 146th on the Happiness Index, but there have been very few suicides there. However, terrorist groups there, on the other hand, believe in forming youth suicide squads.
This question may arise in your mind: If a large number of people on earth have the proclivity to destroy their own lives, why don’t governments devise measures to prevent this? According to a World Health Organization report, only 38 countries have arrangements in place to fight this disorder.
Just one more thing. The clouds of recession are gathering once more in the United States (US). As a result, sociologists have begun to be concerned about a new wave of suicide cases on this continent. As was the case after Lehman Brothers went bankrupt in 2008. As a result, there was widespread mistrust in the economy. Its negative impact was felt all over the world. According to one study, more than 10,000 people in Europe and the US died by suicide during that time period due to economic deprivation.
“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams,” said Eleanor Roosevelt, who was once the First Lady of the US. We must prevent our faith in the beauty of our dreams from being shaken. This is the only way to save us all.

It had been a rainy evening, and the downpour had soaked all of us deep inside. While this was going on, my friend’s literary and vivacious wife began to say, “How hypocritical are people here that they term suicide as an act of cowardice. How can people who put up with pain caused by their own actions be labelled cowards? For this, a lot of courage is required.” Her remark reminded me of the National Crime Records Bureau’s most recent report. The number of suicides in India has increased by 7.2% in the most recent year, i.e. 2021. During this time, more than 164,000 suicide cases were reported. The number of suicides has increased since 1967.
Were the people who died by suicide bravehearts?
A careful examination of the data reveals that this argument has no foundation at all. It is true that every human being has a proclivity for self-harm. According to the data, the number of men forced to end their lives due to financial difficulties has seen an unprecedented increase. Daily wage workers make up the majority of this group. This category accounted for more than a quarter of all suicides.
Not only that, suicidal tendencies have increased in people who want to achieve financial affluence through self-employment. This category accounts for 12.3% of the total cases, which is an astounding figure. Domestic violence and discord, too, have emerged as leading causes of suicide. Is the concept of a nuclear family destroying marriages?
Many sociologists agree that India has done an excellent job of eradicating poverty since 1991, but along with it there has also been a significant increase in aspirations. Since the agricultural system was unable to feed the large population of our villages, people were forced to migrate at an alarming rate to cities and metropolises for jobs. This continuous cycle upends the “value system” of a large segment of the population. This is also a major cause of the rise in depression. In mid-2020, a survey conducted by health platform GOQII using cutting-edge smart technology discovered that 43% of Indians suffer from depression for various reasons.
Doesn’t this figure amaze you?
It’s no surprise that people in more affluent regions have a higher rate of suicide. Four metros — Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Bengaluru — alone accounted for 35% of all suicides in the country’s 53 major cities. A large number of people have migrated and live in these metropolises and their suburbs. It is also worth noting that, despite having fewer suicides this year, Delhi remained at the top.
The people of Delhi, if they so desire, can learn from this fact.
Is this something that is happening only in India? No, the situation is even worse in other countries. According to the most recent global statistics, the number of suicides has risen even in affluent countries such as Belgium, Japan, China, Sweden, South Korea and Russia. Though Sweden ranks seventh in the Happiness Index, there are numerous suicides there. One reason for this is the statutory right to euthanasia for patients suffering from incurable diseases.

BOSTON (AP) — The Red Sox brought up one of their top prospects Sunday, promoting first baseman Triston Casas for the series finale against the Texas Rangers at Fenway Park.
The 6-foot-4, 22-year-old has played 284 games in the minors, batting .269 with 46 homers and 181 RBIs. He was called up from Triple-A Worcester.
“He’s going to play almost every day,” Boston manager Alex Cora said. “We’ll get to know him on a daily basis and see what he’s all about. Obviously, the player we like.”
The left-handed hitting Casas will play first and bat sixth.
“From everything I hear, the situation will call to do something, and he’ll do it,” Cora said. “He’ll put the ball in play with a runner on third and less than two outs with how much power he has. I’m excited he’s here.”
To make room on the roster, the club demoted struggling right-handed hitter Bobby Dalbec, 27, to Worcester.
“It was difficult because he hasn’t stopped working, understanding his situation,” Cora said. “There’s a lot of guys, they’ll check out.”
Dalbec is batting .211 with 11 homers and 36 RBIs.
“We talked to him: ‘Go down there and dominate and play,’’’ Cora said. “He’s going to get consistent at-bats.”
The Red Sox enter Sunday clinging to slim hopes of getting back into the AL’s wild-card chase, trailing the third and final spot by 7 1/2 games with three teams in front of them.
Boston also recalled right-hander Josh Winckowski, Sunday’s scheduled starting pitcher, from Worcester and placed righty Kutter Crawford on the 15-day injured list with a right shoulder impingement.

As GAC Family continues to expand its roster of talent and titles, the network also has plans to help new fans keep up to date.
Recently, Variety broke the news that the up-and-coming TV network is launching a free app called Great American Community on September 26. According to the outlet, GAC plans to debut “15 original short-form series” on launch day with multiple episodes premiering. After that, GAC viewers can expect to see new content throughout the year “with no offseason.”
According to Great American Media president and CEO Bill Abbott, the new app will bring fans closer to their favorite actors and actresses, including Candace Cameron Bure, Danica McKellar, Trevor Donovan and more.
“We are thrilled to be launching Great American Community with 15 new, always-on series that are topical, relatable and hosted by our growing family of recognizable talent. This new platform represents an important evolution of the company’s digital strategy and gives our passionate fans a fun and engaging new way to interact with our stars in a trusted, family-friendly environment, 365 days a year,” he said in a statement, per Variety.
Reacting to the network's latest news, Candace wrote in the comments section, "Whoo Hoo!!!!!!! 🙌." Danica added, "It's been so much fun working on this!! 🤗." Emily Hutchinson exclaimed, "I can’t wait for everyone to see what we’ve been working hard on 😍😍😍."
But even before the official announcement, GAC Family was hinting at the creation of an app for fans. In an August 13 Instagram post, the network celebrated the premiere of the movie Retreat to Paradise. While GAC encouraged fans to tune in for an encore, some pointed out that it wasn’t easy figuring out how.
“Y’all need an app that lists all the movies and premiere dates on it... that would be huge and helpful just saying...,” one person wrote in the comments section. Shortly after, the official GAC Family Instagram replied with a teaser of what was on the way. “We have a future vision for an app, stay tuned!” the response read. “In the meantime, you can view our schedule on our website. https://www.gacfamily.com/schedule/.”
In case you’re still trying to figure out how to watch and stream GAC Family, there are several ways to tune in. Several cable TV providers offer the channel, including Cox, DirectTV, Dish, Frontier and Spectrum. Streaming users can also find the channel on Hulu Live TV, Frndly TV, Fubo TV, Philo and Sling TV.
But GAC Family’s news doesn’t stop there. After the highly anticipated launch, fans can look forward to Great American Christmas arriving right before Halloween.

Georgina Martin says she is still searching for answers about the treatment of her mother.
Martin was born at the Coqualeetza Indian Hospital in British Columbia after her mother was confined there with tuberculosis. Martin grew up with her grandparents in Williams Lake First Nation, or T’Exelc, in that province, while her mother remained hospitalized.
The professor and chair of Indigenous/Xwulmuxw studies at Vancouver Island University says she does not have a complete picture of her past, despite asking repeatedly for records.
“My birth in an Indian hospital was my first experience of trauma, which was then compounded by being reared without the closeness of a mother,” Martin wrote in a coming memoir.
“There is no information in the limited literature available about the effects of these hospitals on the Secwépemc people in my community,” wrote Martin, whose research focuses on intergenerational trauma linked to both residential schools and the health-care system
“What I am aware of is that I was born there. I made some effort to obtain my birth records; so far I have not been able to locate where I can find them or know if they even exist.”
The federal government established “Indian hospitals” across Canada from the 1930s, expanding them widely after the Second World War. They were originally created to treat Indigenous Peoples who contracted, or were suspected of having contracted, tuberculosis.
They later became segregated hospitals for Indigenous Peoples that treated all manner of conditions, including pregnancy, burns and broken bones. They had all closed or amalgamated into the mainstream health system by 1981 after concerns were raised over how the patients, including children, were forcibly confined and treated within their walls.
Some patients who died at the hospitals were buried in unmarked graves because the government often refused to pay the costs of sending their bodies home to their families.
Now communities are looking for answers.
The Department of Crown-Indigenous Relations has signalled it would be willing to open the records related to the former “Indian hospitals” as part of any response to a $1.1-billion class-action lawsuit filed in 2018 on behalf of Indigenous Peoples who received treatment at those institutions.
A Federal Court judge certified the class-action lawsuit in January 2020.
“Survivors recount stories of sexual violence, physical abuse, forced confinement, including being tied to a hospital bed for prolonged periods, forced isolation from families, surgeries without anesthesia,” said Adam Tanel, a lawyer with Toronto-based Koskie Minsky, one of two law firms involved in the action.
None of the allegations have been proven in court.

“First Nations people deserve an effective and reliable method to access their own historical records — both on an individual and a community level,” Tanel said.
Kyle Fournier, a spokesperson for the Department of Crown-Indigenous Relations, said Ottawa is “working collaboratively with the parties toward a meaningful resolution” to the class-action lawsuit. Fournier suggested the federal government would be willing to provide access to the long-sought files.
“Ensuring the availability of records to former patients and their families will be considered as part of any resolution discussions,” said Fournier.
“Research to collect relevant documents from various archives is ongoing.”
Academics who have had limited access to the records through access-to-information requests say many Indigenous tuberculosis patients received outdated treatment for the disease compared to the non-Indigenous population.
Laurie Meijer Drees, who is also a member of the Indigenous/Xwulmuxw Studies faculty at Vancouver Island University, recorded testimonies of Indigenous Peoples who were treated in these institutions for her 2013 book, “Healing Histories: Stories from Canada’s Indian Hospitals.”
She said the collective understanding of how patients were treated there is incomplete.
“Oral histories are helpful, but institutional policy documents would reveal administrative directives,” she said.
Documents she has found through her research suggest a cavalier attitude toward consent from parents of children with tuberculosis.
“I do not think consent of parents for open T.B. cases should be stressed too much. It should be taken for granted,” said a March 1946 memo, seen by Meier Drees, that the Department of National Health and Welfare sent to officials at what was then the Department of Indian Affairs.
By 1953, an amendment to the Indian Act meant those subject to it could be prosecuted if they refused to go to hospital or comply with a doctor’s orders.
Maureen Lux, who teaches the history of Indigenous-government relations and the social history of medicine at Brock University in St. Catharines, Ont., also wants the records made available.
“I’ve been trying to get at all the records of the Indian hospitals for 10 years,” said Lux.
“Lately, it has proved very difficult to get anything.”
Lux wrote a book on the subject in 2016, “Separate Beds: A History of Indian Hospitals in Canada, 1920s-1980s,” in which she shared the story of a young boy who arrived at the Charles Camsell Indian Hospital in Edmonton after being sent there alone from his home in the Arctic.
She said none of the staff in the facility could pronounce his name, so he was referred to as “Harry Hospital.” He spent most of his childhood there and was then sent by train to Ottawa, without being able to say goodbye.
Lux said many families still do not know where loved ones who died in the hospitals are buried.
“It’s important that the hospitals open up their records, especially for families so they can find their loved ones,” she said.
In 2019, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau apologized in Iqaluit for the federal government’s mid-century policy on tuberculosis, which included separating thousands of Inuit from their families and sending them to be treated in institutions in Southern Canada. Many never came home.
As part of the apology, the Department of Crown-Indigenous Relations set up the Nanilavut Initiative, a database to help families access information about Inuit who were sent South for treatment of tuberculosis from the 1940s to 1960s, including where they were buried.
Claudette Commanda, an elder from Kitigan Zibi Anishinabeg in western Quebec who will become chancellor of the University of Ottawa in November, said several members of her family were sent to “Indian hospitals” — some for years.
“In my father’s case he was shipped out to one of these Indian hospitals. I was about 13 years old, he was there for at least a year or two years,” she said. “My husband, his mother was put in an Indian hospital. They removed her lung.”
She said people in her community returned with scars from operations they had not been properly informed about.
“There is no reconciliation without the truth,” she said. “They need to open up these documents.”

Jimmy Garoppolo could have gotten out without having to “ruffle feathers”
49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo recently revealed a stunning failure to realize that Football Is Business, Fam by explaining that he didn’t ask to be released because he doesn’t like to ruffle feathers.
Doesn’t like to ruffle feathers? The team ruffled the hell out of them feathers by investing three first-round picks and a third-round pick in the acquisition of Garoppolo’s replacement.
Still, there’s a way that Garoppolo could have gotten out without having to ruffle feathers. If the out years of his contract had included an early trigger for the making of a major payment or the vesting of a significant guarantee, the 49ers would have had to make a decision in the middle of March, not in the end of August.
It’s a reminder to players and agents that there’s always benefit in seeking such protections. Maybe Don Yee tried. Or maybe both sides assumed as of 2018 that Garoppolo would be the long-term answer in San Francisco, and that he’d have a new contract before 2022.
Regardless, it’s a detail that should always be remembered when long-term contracts are being negotiated. Once the contract morphs into the year-to-year team-option phase, with none of the money guaranteed, it’s important to remove from the team the ability to do what the 49ers did to Garoppolo — squat on him and wait until he had no alternative to taking whatever the 49ers were willing to pay in order to keep him around as the understudy to Trey Lance.

Inequality at workplace becoming national trend: Veteran journalist T N Ninan
Everywhere, private companies and even governments are increasingly hiring contract workers and not putting people on regular payrolls, he said.While unemployment has gone up, corporate profits in India have doubled in the Covid year 2020-21, Ninan underlined.He said the answer to inequality is the creation of good-quality jobs and a country of Indias size and ability can certainly do it.

- India
Veteran journalist T N Ninan on Sunday said inequality at the workplace is becoming a national trend as companies and the government are increasingly hiring contract workers.
Delivering a lecture on the topic ''The cost of rising inequality'' at the Delhi Diocese of the Malankara Mar Thoma Syrian Church here, Ninan, who is also an independent director of the Press Trust of India, said the number of contract workers in government establishments such as the railways has doubled to 2.43 millions in four years.
''Every fourth railway worker is now on contract,'' he said.
States appoint school teachers on contract and the starting salary is just Rs 7,500 while it announced that minimum wage would be Rs 18,000.
''Inequality at workplace is becoming a national trend. It is not a small thing. Everywhere, (private) companies and even governments are increasingly hiring contract workers and not putting people on regular payrolls,'' he said.
While unemployment has gone up, corporate profits in India have doubled in the Covid year 2020-21, Ninan underlined.
He said the answer to inequality is the creation of good-quality jobs and a country of India's size and ability can certainly do it. ''Jobs can give more money than any other welfare system.'' Ninan said that though there has been an improvement in terms of equality in education, gender and life expectancy in India, the inequality in income and wealth is growing.
''The share of wealth owned by top 10 per cent people has gone up and that of the bottom 20 per cent has gone down.
''Perhaps half the people working in the country get less than the official minimum wage... The number of people looking for work under the MNREGA programme has double in just few years. And the gap between the top and the bottom is growing,'' he said.
Ninan stressed that poverty and inequality are two different concepts and it is the inequality in income and wealth that is growing.
''The per capital income in Bihar is less than one-fifth of that in Tamil Nadu. Statistics show that the per capita income in Bihar is rising, but inequality between the poor states and rich states has grown,'' he said.
There are no easy answers to this kind of geographical inequality within the same country, said Ninan, who is also the chair of the Independent and Public-Spirited Media Foundation.

Police say it appears the driver of the car had indicators of impairment.
An adult male bicyclist is hospitalized in critical condition at MercyOne Des Moines Medical Center, after a crash around 2:45 a.m. Sunday.
Police report their preliminary findings from the scene indicate a vehicle operated by a 24-year-old Des Moines resident was traveling southbound on Hubbell Avenue and the bicyclist was also going southbound on the road. The crash appears to have happened in the curb lane.
First responders arrived on scene and found a male bicyclist with serious injuries at the 2500th block of Hubbell Avenue, that is right across the street from the Well Covenant Church.
Police say it appears the driver of the car had indicators of impairment, charges are pending as the investigation continues. The bicycle also had factors of unsafe passing and lack of lighting equipment.

Americans splurge on beauty, despite pullbacks elsewhere
NEW YORK (AP) — Like many Americans, Karla Maldonado has been cutting back her spending to spare her wallet from rising costs: She is eating out less and attending fewer social events to curb the impact of high gas prices.
But the 26-year-old social worker of Portland, Oregon, hasn’t skimped on her eye makeup — the mascara, eyeliner and eyeshadow she typically wears to work just above her face mask.
“That’s something I can’t go without,” Maldonado said. And she doesn’t seem to be alone.
Many major retailers slashed their financial outlooks for the year after seeing shoppers pull back on many discretionary items in the latest quarter. But among the notable exceptions: beauty.
Target, Kohl’s, Macy’s and Nordstrom all highlighted strong sales of beauty items in their fiscal second-quarter earnings reports issued over the past few weeks. Walmart, the nation’s largest retailer, said that it’s seeing increased momentum in its beauty business, citing strong sales in cosmetics as well as skin and hair businesses. Meanwhile, Ulta Beauty, the largest beauty retailer in the country, said overall sales spiked nearly 17% in its most recent quarter, compared to the same period last year.
Americans, once stuck behind Zoom screens in the thick of the pandemic, are out and about and wanting to look their best. Co-workers — some of whom are meeting each other for the first time — are trying to make an impression. Meanwhile, people are going out on dates and getting together for summer parties and barbeques after months of pandemic-induced leisurewear and Netflix binges at home.
But another possible explanation for why beauty is thriving when consumers are more apprehensive about their spending is a long-held theory known as the “lipstick index,” which posits that lipstick sales rise during times of economic downturn.
The reasoning goes: When consumer sentiment declines, Americans seek escapism by looking for small ways to indulge themselves, such as by purchasing a new lipstick instead of pricier alternatives they can no longer afford. For others, their version of lipstick might be cheap beer or a $5 Caramel Macchiato from Starbucks, which reported record revenue in August for its fiscal third quarter.
The lipstick theory has held, though not always. Makeup sales spiked during the Great Depression and the recession in the early 2000s. But sales declined during the 2008 economic collapse, according to market research firm NPD Group. The same happened during the early days of the pandemic as Americans stayed home — or behind masks -- and shifted their interests towards wellness and skincare as stimulus payments flooded bank accounts, helping balloon the savings of consumers who were already spending less on traveling or eating out due to pandemic lockdowns.
Now, makeup is roaring back. Americans have bought more eye, face and lip makeup — roughly 2%, 5% and 12% respectively — in a year-over-year analysis of sales across stores, according to the market research firm IRI.
At Macy’s, CEO Jeff Gennette noted in an earnings call late last month that consumers have focused on deals and cut back on purchases amid high inflation. Still, they managed to buy beauty products as well as travel-related items like luggage, shoes and clothes to wear to the office, Gennette said.
Meanwhile, Kohl’s reported that shoppers were making fewer trips, spending less per transaction and shifting toward value-oriented store brands. But at its Sephora beauty shops, launched last year as part of a partnership with the beauty chain, shoppers are spending freely on skincare, makeup and fragrance.
“Customers are not willing to give up their beauty purchases,” Kohl’s CEO Michelle Gass recently told The Associated Press. “People need to feel good at this time with so much pressure on them.”
The Sephora sales reflect broader findings released in July by NPD Group, which showed among 14 discretionary industries tracked by the group this year, beauty was the only category that saw a rise in sales. However, the persistence of beauty at more prestige markets — such as Macy’s, Sephora and Nordstrom — is primarily being driven by high-income earners, or those with an annual salary of $100,000 or more, according to Larissa Jensen, NPD’s beauty industry adviser.
“While we’re all feeling these inflationary pressures, it has less of an impact on a consumer earning six figures than it does on a lower income consumer,” Jensen said.
Elsewhere, however, strong sales show Americans of all income levels participating in the uptick. At Target, beauty enjoyed sales increases in the low single digits while home goods, clothing and electronics all suffered declines. As a result, for the winter holidays, Target said it will be more cautious with its orders for discretionary merchandise but will lean on beauty as well as necessities like groceries.
Its competitor Walmart launched higher-end beauty areas in March in collaboration with British retailer SpaceNK, and it says those sections have performed well. The retailer, which has been offering consumers select discounts, will hold a beauty event in September where customers can find deals at the store and online.
These wins, combined with low levels of price increases and supply chain issues, has made the beauty industry feel insulated from challenges in the wider economy, Jensen said.
“But there’s still so many things swirling around,” she warned. “And we need to be cognizant that things could change at any minute.”

Indiana approved for federal broadband expansion funding
Indiana will prioritize school buildings, rural health clinics and households with students with $187 million in new federal funding for broadband. (Getty Images)
Indiana will receive $187 million to expand its broadband capacity under the American Rescue Plan , connecting more than 50,000 Hoosiers to high-speed broadband internet, as announced by the U.S. Treasury Department Tuesday.
The funding comes from the federal Capital Projects Fund, with Indiana’s allocation composing more than a quarter of the total $408 million funding for five states. The other states are Nebraska, Connecticut, Arkansas and North Dakota.
Congressional Rep. Frank Mrvan, D-1st, said the COVID-19 pandemic exposed disparities in access for healthcare, mental healthcare and education for Hoosier families.
“Who doesn’t remember pictures and news stories about children having to go to McDonald’s or sit on school buses in order to have access to e-learning? To the fundamental right of education?” Mrvan said. “This investment eliminates that and gives us the opportunity to make sure we stay connected.”
In March 2021, President Joe Biden signed the $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief bill known as the American Rescue Plan. Indiana’s broadband funding comes from the $10 billion Capital Projects fund earmarked for broadband expansion in that plan, part of a broader $25 billion broadband effort.
Gene Sperling, chosen by Biden to oversee the stimulus plan, said Tuesday’s announcement was just the first allocation from the fund.
“I think it has become self-evident that the pandemic was a national teaching moment – that quality, affordable high speed broadband is a necessity. It is an economic and educational necessity, not a luxury,” Sperling said.
The White House estimated that over 90,000 homes and businesses nationwide would benefit from the total funding, with over half of those impacted living in Indiana. Of the communities without broadband in Indiana, the funding should close the gap for 7.4% of those Hoosiers.
Indiana’s plan, approved by the Treasury Department, outlined the state’s plans to deliver reliable service that “meets or exceeds symmetrical download and upload speeds of 100 megabits per second,” according to a White House release.
“(Those speeds) are needed for a household with multiple users to simultaneously access the Internet to telework and access education and health monitoring,” the release said.
Plans must prioritize connecting families and businesses with poor or inadequate service, especially in rural areas. In particular, Indiana’s program prioritizes school buildings, rural health clinics and households with students.
The funding comes with a caveat that Indiana must participate in the Affordable Connectivity Fund, which provides a discount on Internet services for qualifying households.
“Our goal with the capital projects fund has been to make sure not only that families are connected to the internet but that their connection is affordable,” said Jacob Leibenluft, a counselor to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. “This means that most qualifying households will receive Internet access at virtually no cost with these funds.”
Indiana’s Next Level Connections Broadband Grant will administer the funds, which can be combined with prior grant allotments.
“Broadband has been and continues to be a priority for the State,” said Jodi Golden, Indiana’s chief broadband officer. “These funds will assist in the mission of expanding high-speed internet access to Hoosiers across the state”

Leading trainer pays tribute after son, 13, dies following horseracing accident
The parents of 13-year-old Jack de Bromhead, who died following a horseracing accident, have paid tribute to their “extraordinary and beautiful” son.
In an online post, leading horse trainer Henry de Bromhead and his wife Heather described Jack as a “perfect, funny, loving son”.
His death has caused widespread shock among the Irish racing community.
The teenager died in a horse racing accident in Co Kerry on Saturday.
He had been taking part in Glenbeigh horse and pony race at Rossbeigh beach. The racing event was immediately cancelled following the incident.
It is understood the young jockey fell from his horse.
“On September 3rd we said goodbye to our extraordinary, beautiful 13-year-old son, Jack,” his parents said.
“A one-of-a-kind child who touched all our lives in the best way possible – he will be forever present in our lives.
“Always cherished, always loved, frozen in time with a beautiful young soul.
“He was an amazing son who told us he loved us every day – an over-brimming heart of loyalty, empathy, patience, pluck, courage and how he made us laugh.
“Not only the perfect, funny, loving son but also an incredible, loving brother to our beautiful daughters, his twin sister Mia and his little sister, Georgia.
“He always had their back and was fiercely loyal and kind. Our hearts are truly broken.
“He made so many friends wherever he went and they felt his special, unique and loyal touch on their lives too. We ask that they please celebrate and love him as we know he would have wished.
“Jack has lived so many more years than the 13 – he filled every moment of his days, always busy, forever curious grasping at life and new interests.
“The passion he had for his family and friends extended to all his hobbies and interests – too many to fit into 13 years and certainly too busy to spend more than a minute more than he had to in the classroom.
“It started with his work on the farm, the tractor, the cattle, the ponies and horses. He was a passionate expert on them all by the time he was 10.
“By 11 he was offering expert advice and consultation to his father on training horses as he developed his father’s passion for all aspects of racing.”
His parents said he recently started a new school where he made new friends.
“Jack’s friendships were of the deep and loyal kind and treasured by him,” they added.
“Jack, you will be with us always at home in your family and friends’ hearts. Always present, always cherished with so many memories from your packed, extraordinary life.
“Deeply loved and missed by your parents, Henry and Heather, your sisters Mia and Georgia, your grandparents Andrew, Marian, Harry and Sally, your aunts and uncles, extended family and friends.”
In a statement, gardai said emergency services were called to the scene at Rossbeigh beach on Saturday at about 5.20pm.
Jack received treatment at the scene but was later pronounced dead.
His body was removed to the morgue at Kerry University Hospital.
Meanwhile, Pony Racing tweeted: “We pass on our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Jack de Bromhead who tragically died in Glenbeigh on Saturday.
“It’s impossible to put into words the sense of grief and loss that is being felt by everyone involved so please give them time to mourn. RIP Jack.”
Suzanne Eade, chief executive of Horse Racing Ireland, said: “Like everybody in the horse racing and pony racing community, I want to offer my deepest condolences to (Jack’s) parents Henry and Heather, his sisters Mia and Georgia, and extended family on the tragic loss of their beloved Jack.
“Jack may have been only 13 but he was already incredibly popular in the racing community.
“His family and friends, his pony racing colleagues and all those whose lives he touched are in our thoughts today during this numbing, devastating tragedy.”
She said Horse Racing Ireland will, through the Industry Assistance Programme, “assist in offering counselling for Jack’s pony racing colleagues and friends. May he rest in peace”.
Darragh O’Loughlin, chief executive of the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board, said: “The directors and staff of the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board extend their deepest sympathies to the de Bromhead family on the tragic loss of Jack. May he rest in peace.”
The British Horseracing Authority tweeted: “The BHA sends its deepest condolences to the family of Henry de Bromhead following the tragic death of his son Jack.”

The reason for Tom Brady's absence from Friday's practice is now known.
The New England Patriots list Brady, who was limited Wednesday and Thursday with a knee injury, as not practicing with an illness and knee injury. NFL Network's Mike Giardi reported the illness was the primary reason Brady did not practice.
Brady is officially designated as questionable for Sunday's game against the New York Jets.
While Brady's absence Friday likely triggered numerous panic buttons among the Patriots' fan base and to some extent members of the media, Giardi reports the quarterback will play.
Tight end Rob Gronkowski played it coy with media members when asked if he caught passes Friday from Brady.
"Yeah. Didn't tell you where, though," Gronkowski said. "Could have been on the field, could have been in the locker room."
Brian Hoyer would likely start if Brady is unavailable. | https://www.nfl.com/news/tom-brady-illness-misses-practice-qb-to-play-vs-jets-0ap3000000991609 | 2022-09-04T17:40:44Z | https://www.nfl.com/news/tom-brady-illness-misses-practice-qb-to-play-vs-jets-0ap3000000991609 | true | 1 |
The three siblings who died in a violent incident in Dublin have been named as Lisa Cash, 18, and her younger brother and sister, eight-year-old twins Christy and Chelsea Cawley.
A man arrested following the deaths remains in custody, police in Ireland said.
Officers were called to the property in the Rossfield estate in Tallaght at about 12.30am on Sunday.
Lisa, Christy and Chelsea were taken by ambulance to Children’s Health Ireland (CHI) in Crumlin, but all three were later pronounced dead.
Their mother, a woman in her 40s, has been released from hospital and is currently being supported by her family.
The victims’ 14-year-old brother remains in Tallaght University Hospital with serious but non-life threatening injuries.
The scene remains sealed off for a forensic examination by the Garda Technical Bureau.
Post mortems will take place on Sunday and Monday by state pathologist Dr Sally Anne Collis.
A man, aged in his early 20s and arrested at the scene, continues to be questioned at Tallaght Garda Station.
The Garda Armed Support Unit used ‘less-than-lethal’ devices to arrest the man.
Gardai said everyone involved is believed to have been known to each other and officers are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.
Gardai in Tallaght have established an incident room and the circumstances are being investigated under the direction of a senior investigating officer.
Officers described it as a violent, challenging and traumatic incident which was responded to by uniform unarmed Garda first responders from Tallaght District, supported by uniform members and armed detectives and specialist armed support unit members.
An Garda Siochna also said it has put in place welfare support for all officers who attended the incident.
Fianna Fail councillor Charlie O’Connor, who was at the scene on Sunday morning, said there is widespread shock in the community.
“I don’t know how to describe it. I was getting calls from early morning with people bringing it to my attention,” Mr O’Connor said.
“People are only now beginning to come out of their houses. I was at the Catholic Church a while ago and a lot people hadn’t heard, but the news was getting through.
“There is deep shock, people are really, really upset, any event like this would cause shock but the fact that it involves children, it’s a really shocking event for this community, and indeed for the wider Tallaght community and elsewhere. This will affect many, many people.
“I was talking to the gardai and they told me that their colleagues who were on last night were all deeply shocked.
“It is terrible. We have to think of the family, think of their neighbours, think of the wider community.
“Attempts are being made to support the local community and the local Brookfield Youth and Community Centre has just confirmed to me that they’re opening up now for the rest of the day.
“People are welcome to come and grieve and have a cup of tea and talk about their grief.
“I really find it shocking to think three children of that age are no longer with us and won’t be going to school in the morning.”
A large garda presence remains in the area while a full forensic examination of the scene is under way.
The upstairs windows of the property were open and smashed while blood stains could be seen on the window frames.
A smashed downstairs window also remained open while forensic officers examined the front garden.
A black car outside the property was also a focal point of the investigation.
Forensic officers removed a number of items from the scene, including a shoe, small bag and black coat which were placed in forensic bags.
Flowers have also been left at the scene. One floral tribute said: “Fly high little angels. Our hearts are broken for you all.”
The streets surrounding the property remained busy with children playing nearby.
Minister for Justice Helen McEntee said: “The killing of three young family members is a tragedy, so awful and heart-breaking. It is difficult to comprehend.
“My thoughts are with the family and the local community as they deal with this unimaginable crime.
“Gardai and other services are supporting them at this difficult time.”
Dermot Richardson, Sinn Fein councillor for the Tallaght area, called for welfare support to be put in place for the family, local community and schoolchildren.
He also called for people to stop sharing video footage of the incident on WhatsApp and social media sites.
“There are videos being shared on WhatsApp. I would ask people not to share it out of respect for the family and the local community as well,” he added.
“If you have footage, please pass on to the gardai.”

Meanwhile, the number of patients waiting for surgery at the Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital keeps increasing.
The number has jumped from 7 288 patients last year to now 11 194. Some patients were told they will have to wait until December 2026 for their required surgery.
This was revealed by Gauteng Health MEC Nomathemba Mokgethi in written replies in the Gauteng Legislature.
DA Gauteng shadow MEC of health Jack Bloom says 3 394 cataract patients will have to wait another year to regain their sight.
“The worst waiting line is for 1 777 people who need hip and knee replacements. They will wait four and a half years.”

1 304 children will wait six months for surgery. 243 patients with prostate cancer, a life-threatening disease, will have to wait between two to three years for surgery.
“The department blames the Covid-19 pandemic for the growing waiting lists, but better management would fix issues like broken equipment. For many patients, it can take many months before they are diagnosed and placed on the waiting list, so their suffering is immense,” Bloom says.

Americans splurge on beauty, despite pullbacks elsewhere
NEW YORK (AP) — Like many Americans, Karla Maldonado has been cutting back her spending to spare her wallet from rising costs: She is eating out less and attending fewer social events to curb the impact of high gas prices.
But the 26-year-old social worker of Portland, Oregon, hasn’t skimped on her eye makeup — the mascara, eyeliner and eyeshadow she typically wears to work just above her face mask.
“That’s something I can’t go without,” Maldonado said. And she doesn’t seem to be alone.
Many major retailers slashed their financial outlooks for the year after seeing shoppers pull back on many discretionary items in the latest quarter. But among the notable exceptions: beauty.
Target, Kohl’s, Macy’s and Nordstrom all highlighted strong sales of beauty items in their fiscal second-quarter earnings reports issued over the past few weeks. Walmart, the nation’s largest retailer, said that it’s seeing increased momentum in its beauty business, citing strong sales in cosmetics as well as skin and hair businesses. Meanwhile, Ulta Beauty, the largest beauty retailer in the country, said overall sales spiked nearly 17% in its most recent quarter, compared to the same period last year.
Americans, once stuck behind Zoom screens in the thick of the pandemic, are out and about and wanting to look their best. Co-workers — some of whom are meeting each other for the first time — are trying to make an impression. Meanwhile, people are going out on dates and getting together for summer parties and barbeques after months of pandemic-induced leisurewear and Netflix binges at home.
But another possible explanation for why beauty is thriving when consumers are more apprehensive about their spending is a long-held theory known as the “lipstick index,” which posits that lipstick sales rise during times of economic downturn.
The reasoning goes: When consumer sentiment declines, Americans seek escapism by looking for small ways to indulge themselves, such as by purchasing a new lipstick instead of pricier alternatives they can no longer afford. For others, their version of lipstick might be cheap beer or a $5 Caramel Macchiato from Starbucks, which reported record revenue in August for its fiscal third quarter.
The lipstick theory has held, though not always. Makeup sales spiked during the Great Depression and the recession in the early 2000s. But sales declined during the 2008 economic collapse, according to market research firm NPD Group. The same happened during the early days of the pandemic as Americans stayed home — or behind masks -- and shifted their interests towards wellness and skincare as stimulus payments flooded bank accounts, helping balloon the savings of consumers who were already spending less on traveling or eating out due to pandemic lockdowns.
Now, makeup is roaring back. Americans have bought more eye, face and lip makeup — roughly 2%, 5% and 12% respectively — in a year-over-year analysis of sales across stores, according to the market research firm IRI.
At Macy’s, CEO Jeff Gennette noted in an earnings call late last month that consumers have focused on deals and cut back on purchases amid high inflation. Still, they managed to buy beauty products as well as travel-related items like luggage, shoes and clothes to wear to the office, Gennette said.
Meanwhile, Kohl’s reported that shoppers were making fewer trips, spending less per transaction and shifting toward value-oriented store brands. But at its Sephora beauty shops, launched last year as part of a partnership with the beauty chain, shoppers are spending freely on skincare, makeup and fragrance.
“Customers are not willing to give up their beauty purchases,” Kohl’s CEO Michelle Gass recently told The Associated Press. “People need to feel good at this time with so much pressure on them.”
The Sephora sales reflect broader findings released in July by NPD Group, which showed among 14 discretionary industries tracked by the group this year, beauty was the only category that saw a rise in sales. However, the persistence of beauty at more prestige markets — such as Macy’s, Sephora and Nordstrom — is primarily being driven by high-income earners, or those with an annual salary of $100,000 or more, according to Larissa Jensen, NPD’s beauty industry adviser.
“While we’re all feeling these inflationary pressures, it has less of an impact on a consumer earning six figures than it does on a lower income consumer,” Jensen said.
Elsewhere, however, strong sales show Americans of all income levels participating in the uptick. At Target, beauty enjoyed sales increases in the low single digits while home goods, clothing and electronics all suffered declines. As a result, for the winter holidays, Target said it will be more cautious with its orders for discretionary merchandise but will lean on beauty as well as necessities like groceries.
Its competitor Walmart launched higher-end beauty areas in March in collaboration with British retailer SpaceNK, and it says those sections have performed well. The retailer, which has been offering consumers select discounts, will hold a beauty event in September where customers can find deals at the store and online.
These wins, combined with low levels of price increases and supply chain issues, has made the beauty industry feel insulated from challenges in the wider economy, Jensen said.
“But there’s still so many things swirling around,” she warned. “And we need to be cognizant that things could change at any minute.”

US ambassador to Russia leaving post as Ukraine war drags on
WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. ambassador to Russia, John Sullivan, ended his tenure as America’s top diplomat in Moscow on Sunday after nearly three years, spanning the Trump and Biden administrations, and will retire from a lengthy career in government service, the embassy announced. His departure comes as Russia’s war with Ukraine is in its seventh month.
His four-decade public service career included postings as deputy secretary of state and senior positions in the departments of Justice, Defense and Commerce.
Elizabeth Rood, the deputy chief of mission to Russia, will be the top U.S. diplomat in Moscow until a successor nominated by President Joe Biden replaces Sullivan.
On Saturday, Sullivan attended a farewell ceremony in Moscow for former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev, who died Tuesday.
The departure comes as U.S.-Russian relations remain tense. Since Russia invaded Ukraine in February, the war has slowed to a grind with both sides trading combat strikes and small advances in the east and south. Both Russian and Ukraine have seen thousands of troops killed and injured, and Russia’s bombardment of cities has killed countless innocent civilians.
The U.S. has imposed numerous waves of sanctions on Russia and provided billions of dollars worth of military assistance to Ukraine, shifting to a longer-term support strategy in recent weeks.
In April 2021, Sullivan headed back to the U.S. for consultations after officials in Moscow “suggested” he follow the example of the Russian ambassador to Washington who was recalled from Washington after Biden described Russian President Vladimir Putin as a “killer.”
A Boston native, Sullivan was nominated by President Donald Trump and confirmed by the Senate with unusually strong bipartisan support as ambassador to Russia in December 2019. Biden asked him to remain in the post when Biden took office last year.

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Mario Cristobal ran through the smoke alongside the Miami Hurricanes as they entered the field, grabbed his headset and gave someone on the sideline a hug.
It was the first of many celebratory moments in Cristobal’s debut game as Miami’s coach.
Henry Parrish rushed for 108 yards and three touchdowns, Tyler Van Dyke passed for two more scores and No. 16 Miami started its season by topping Bethune-Cookman 70-13 on Saturday. Miami rushed for seven touchdowns on the day, piled up 582 yards of offense and turned three takeaways into touchdowns.
“The goal was to be 1-0 by 7:15 tonight,” Cristobal said. “And that was achieved. … We did what we had to do.”
Thaddeus Franklin rushed for two scores, while Devon Perry and Terrell Walden II also ran for touchdowns for the Hurricanes (1-0).
Gilbert Frierson had an interception return for a score, while Xavier Restrepo and Michael Redding III caught the TD passes from Van Dyke — who completed 13 of 16 passes for 193 yards. Jake Garcia completed all eight of his passes for the Hurricanes in relief.
“Amazing to start the season like that,” Frierson said.
For Bethune-Cookman (0-1), Que’Shawn Byrd caught a 34-yard touchdown pass from Jalon Jones.
“It gives us a measuring stick for our football team,” Bethune-Cookman coach Terry Sims said. “When you play a team the caliber of the University of Miami, you have no choice but to play at your best. Our guys, I thought went out and they fought.”
It was Cristobal’s 12th season-opener at Miami — he had five as a player, including his redshirt year, then three as a graduate assistant and three more as a full-fledged assistant.
But this was the first, of what Miami expects to be many, with him in charge of the operation.
“The energy was through the roof,” Restrepo said. “Coach Cristobal, he carries the entire team on his shoulders.”
There was much to like: Van Dyke’s passes were crisp, Parrish stepped up to lead an injury-depleted running back corps, Frierson had the return touchdown, Key’Shawn Smith had three kickoff returns for 184 yards — barely stepping out 17 yards from the end zone on what would have been a return score — and the Hurricanes blocked a field goal.
There also were things that will jump off the film and needs to be corrected, such as Bethune-Cookman getting seven plays of at least 20 yards, two of those being passes that wound up going for gains of 44 and 48. And a red-zone fumble also bothered Cristobal, though he blamed himself for the particulars that went wrong on that play.
“Overall, I thought we played relatively hard,” Cristobal said.
THE TAKEAWAY
Bethune-Cookman: All six games have ended up as easy Miami wins — average margin 42 points — but the Wildcats can feel good about this. They scored first in four of those six matchups, the latest entry on that list coming when they converted a third-and-23 on Saturday’s opening drive on the way to a field goal.
Miami: There were clearly not 56,795 people in the stands Saturday — Hard Rock Stadium holds about 65,000 for football — but that was the announced number of tickets distributed. It was the fourth-highest attendance figure for a Miami home opener since the Hurricanes moved into the Miami Dolphins’ stadium 15 years ago.
POLL IMPLICATIONS
Miami should remain ranked and probably won’t deviate far from the current No. 16 spot. It’ll be the 159th time (out of a possible 183) that the poll will include Miami during Cristobal’s years with the Hurricanes as a player, graduate assistant, assistant coach and now head coach.
FOR OPENERS
Miami improved to 65-32-1 all-time in openers, starting with the 1926 season when the Hurricanes fielded only a freshman team. But it’s only the second time in the last five years that Miami has started 1-0, after losses to LSU in 2018, Florida in 2019 and Alabama last year. The Hurricanes opened 2020 with a win over UAB.
UP NEXT
Bethune-Cookman: Host South Carolina State on Sept. 10. South Carolina State led the Wildcats 42-7 last year, but needed an onside kick recovery to seal a 42-35 win.
Miami: Host Southern Miss on Sept. 10, the first meeting between the schools. The Hurricanes will be seeking what would be just their seventh 2-0 start in the last 18 seasons.

Travel: Postcard from Spokane
Spokane should be atop your list of places to visit.
The second-largest city in Washington state has something for everyone to see and do. There is also a noticeable feeling that it’s a world removed from Seattle, thanks to a mayor who actually wants to crack down on the kind of problems that plague better-known cities in the Pacific Northwest.
After flying into Spokane’s spaceship-looking airport, a classic example of 1960s architecture, and picking up a rental car, I made my way downtown to check-in at the Historic Davenport Hotel.
Saved from demolition — the kind of so-called urban renewal projects that destroyed historic buildings in countless downtowns across the country — it is flagged under Marriott’s upscale Autograph Collection brand. The landmark hotel with its Old World-inspired lobby stands in stark contrast to Parkade Plaza, which at first glance may seem like any other massive concrete parking garage but is actually a landmark in its own right and serves as a big draw for midcentury modern enthusiasts.
While very much an underrated destination, the city has actually been on the map since hosting Expo ’74.
By hosting the direct successor to the more famous world’s fairs and international expositions of earlier eras, Spokane was the smallest city to ever hold such an event. And just as world’s fairs in 1899 and 1900 gave Paris the Eiffel Tower and other iconic landmarks, Spokane, too, has its own iconic leftover: the one-time U.S. Pavilion that today anchors Riverfront Park.
The once-neglected park, which occupies land formerly blighted by industry and railroads, straddles both sides of the Spokane River around the unoriginally named Spokane Falls. Here, a gondola, the Numerica SkyRide, takes passengers on a 15-minute scenic ride above the falls.
The twin spires of St. Aloysius Church (Roman Catholic) on the campus of Gonzaga University are visible from anywhere along the river. While the church is worth visiting, Spokane’s most notable church is the Episcopal cathedral a few minutes from downtown.
The Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist, which serves as the seat of the Episcopal bishop, is one of the finest examples of Gothic church architecture anywhere in the United States. I consider it Gothic and not Gothic revival because it was constructed entirely of masonry in the same manner as true medieval Gothic (Pugin would approve). The pointed arches aren’t merely decorative or stylistic details, which is pretty impressive considering the fact that traditional church architecture was well out of fashion by the time of its construction between 1925 and 1961.
No visit to Spokane would be complete without an adventure on its namesake river.
A couple of different outfitters offer excursions ranging from stand-up paddleboards to whitewater rafting and casual floats. I went with the approximately two-hour float from Wiley E. Waters that can easily be done by anyone, including those with zero rafting experience. For me, it was the perfect relief from temperatures that soared above 100 degrees during my visit in mid-August.
Other must-visits include the 98-acre Manito Park and Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture.
If you go
Eat dinner at Gander & Ryegrass (reservations are a must) and Anthony’s at Spokane Falls, the latter of which has a spectacular view of the falls and iconic pavilion — the Eiffel Tower of Spokane.
If I had to do it over again, I wouldn’t have rented a car. You can get almost everywhere by walking or through one of the popular ride-sharing services. The only thing that really requires a rental car is getting to Mount Spokane State Park and the summit of Quartz Mountain at 5,129 feet in elevation.
For those arriving by car, the drive to Spokane is about four hours from the airport in Seattle. If you choose to fly, American, Delta and United are among the airlines flying into Spokane with nonstop flights from major hubs.

The parents of 13-year-old Jack de Bromhead, who died following a horse-racing accident, have paid tribute to their “extraordinary and beautiful” son.
In an online post, leading horse trainer Henry de Bromhead and his wife Heather described Jack as a “perfect, funny, loving son”.
His death has caused widespread shock among the Irish racing community.
The teenager died in a horse racing accident in Co Kerry on Saturday.
He had been taking part in Glenbeigh horse and pony race at Rossbeigh beach. The racing event was immediately cancelled following the incident.
It is understood the young jockey fell from his horse.
“On September 3rd we said goodbye to our extraordinary, beautiful 13-year-old son, Jack,” his parents said.
“A one-of-a-kind child who touched all our lives in the best way possible – he will be forever present in our lives.
“Always cherished, always loved, frozen in time with a beautiful young soul.
“He was an amazing son who told us he loved us every day – an over-brimming heart of loyalty, empathy, patience, pluck, courage and how he made us laugh.
“Not only the perfect, funny, loving son but also an incredible, loving brother to our beautiful daughters, his twin sister Mia and his little sister, Georgia.
“He always had their back and was fiercely loyal and kind. Our hearts are truly broken.
“He made so many friends wherever he went, and they felt his special, unique and loyal touch on their lives too. We ask that they please celebrate and love him as we know he would have wished.
“Jack has lived so many more years than the 13 – he filled every moment of his days, always busy, forever curious grasping at life and new interests.
“The passion he had for his family and friends extended to all his hobbies and interests – too many to fit into 13 years and certainly too busy to spend more than a minute more than he had to in the classroom.
“It started with his work on the farm, the tractor, the cattle, the ponies and horses. He was a passionate expert on them all by the time he was 10.
“By 11 he was offering expert advice and consultation to his father on training horses as he developed his father’s passion for all aspects of racing.”
His parents said he recently started a new school where he made new friends.
“Jack’s friendships were of the deep and loyal kind and treasured by him,” they added.
“Jack, you will be with us always at home in your family and friends’ hearts. Always present, always cherished with so many memories from your packed, extraordinary life.
“Deeply loved and missed by your parents, Henry and Heather, your sisters Mia and Georgia, your grandparents Andrew, Marian, Harry and Sally, your aunts and uncles, extended family and friends.”
In a statement, gardai said emergency services were called to the scene at Rossbeigh beach on Saturday at about 5.20pm.
Jack received treatment at the scene but was later pronounced dead.
We pass on our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Jack de Bromhead who tragically died in Glenbeigh on Saturday.
It’s impossible to put into words the since of grief and loss that is being felt by everyone involved so please give them time to mourn. RIP Jack. pic.twitter.com/kEQ5cntQkM— PonyRacing.ie (@PonyRacingIRE) September 4, 2022
His body was removed to the morgue at Kerry University Hospital.
Meanwhile, Pony Racing tweeted: “We pass on our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Jack de Bromhead who tragically died in Glenbeigh on Saturday.
“It’s impossible to put into words the sense of grief and loss that is being felt by everyone involved so please give them time to mourn. RIP Jack.”
Suzanne Eade, chief executive of Horse Racing Ireland, said: “Like everybody in the horse racing and pony racing community, I want to offer my deepest condolences to (Jack’s) parents Henry and Heather, his sisters Mia and Georgia, and extended family on the tragic loss of their beloved Jack.
“Jack may have been only 13, but he was already incredibly popular in the racing community.
“His family and friends, his pony racing colleagues and all those whose lives he touched are in our thoughts today during this numbing, devastating tragedy.”
The BHA sends its deepest condolences to the family of Henry de Bromhead following the tragic death of his son Jack.
— British Horseracing Authority (@BHAHorseracing) September 4, 2022
She said Horse Racing Ireland will, through the Industry Assistance Programme, “assist in offering counselling for Jack’s pony racing colleagues and friends. May he rest in peace”.
Darragh O’Loughlin, chief executive of the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board, said: “The directors and staff of the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board extend their deepest sympathies to the de Bromhead family on the tragic loss of Jack. May he rest in peace.”
The British Horseracing Authority tweeted: “The BHA sends its deepest condolences to the family of Henry de Bromhead following the tragic death of his son Jack.”

A good leader knows the importance of succession within an organization.
The Linn County Sheriff’s Office has a rich history of handing off the baton to leaders who ensure the public continues to be well served.
As a former law enforcement officer and a resident of Linn County, I watched as that baton was handed from Sheriff Ken Goin to Art Martinek, to Dave Burright, to Tim Mueller, to Bruce Riley, to Jim Yon and to our current sheriff, Michelle Duncan.
It has been said, “There is no success without a successor.” In other words, succession means that I have someone to whom I can hand off the baton. When I think of succession, the word that pops into my mind is “legacy” or the ability to pass off the baton to someone who is likeminded in values or mission. Michelle Duncan is that individual.
I have known Michelle for years. I have watched her grow into an outstanding leader. Additionally, I listened to her speak to the Legislature on behalf of the Oregon State Sheriff’s Association. An essential component for a good handoff is the preparation, experience and knowledge of an organization.
People are also reading…
Michelle has learned all the aspects of the Linn County Sheriff’s Office. She will continue to carry on the Linn County Sheriff’s Office Mission: Keeping the peace, with dignity, honesty and compassion.
I believe Michelle Duncan will carry the baton well. She is a person of conviction, credibility and connection.

Please note: the COTs report was published 9/2/2022 for the period ending 8/30/2022. “Managed Money” and “Hedge Funds” are used interchangeably.
As highlighted last month, short positioning in gold was at the highest level since April 2019. This laid the seeds for a potential short squeeze. While a squeeze did unfold, it was brief. Sellers have regained control of the market and are driving the price back down.

Managed Money continues to have complete control over the gold price. The chart below shows the price moving in lock-step with Managed Money positioning since mid-2021.
Figure: 2 Managed Money Net Notional Position
Managed Money is very speculative in nature, jumping in and out of the market very quickly. That being said, the current trend has been in place since March 8th. Over the past 4 months, Managed Money has been selling gold consistently. There have been a few rebounds, but they are brief.
Figure: 3 Silver 50/200 DMA
The table below has detailed positioning information. A few things to highlight:
Producers and Swap generally sit on the other side of Managed Money and Other.
Figure: 4 Gold Summary Table
Despite the large moves, the net positioning continues to fall. Total net positioning represents the combined exposure of the groups once hedging positions are removed. It shows the size of net positions divided by total open interest. As can be seen below, this has fallen off a cliff in 2022. In April it stood at 50% and has dropped to 28%.
Figure: 5 Net Positioning
Looking over the full history of the COTs data by month produces the chart below (values are in dollar/notional amounts, not contracts). After coming close to $100B twice, the market has retreated to $65B, which is the lowest amount since May 2019.
Figure: 6 Gross Open Interest
The chart below looks at net notional positioning against price on a longer time frame. The lack of interest in gold is very visible from this chart as positions have plummeted in recent months. The good news is that the last time OI positioning was this low was back in 2019 when gold was $400 lower.
Figure: 7 Net Notional Position
Finally, the CFTC also provides Options data. The chart below further reveals the collapse in activity. After getting above a gross value of $26B, the market has fallen to almost $4B! The majority of this collapse has come from the Producer side, with gross longs falling to the lowest level since 2009 in May. Managed Money has also reduced its long positions but now sits above Producer Long ($1.93B vs $1.26B).
Figure: 8 Options Positions
The moves in silver are even more extreme than the moves in gold. Managed Money has absolutely hammered silver lower while Swap has been on the other side, building a long position over the last three months.
Figure: 9 Net Notional Position
While gold was able to get back to net long, the short covering in silver never got back to positive and has also hit a new low for this move.
Figure: 10 Managed Money Net Notional Position
The chart below shows the same relentless selling. Net longs have not increased for more than 2 weeks in a row at any time since back in March.
Figure: 11 Net Change in Positioning
The table below shows a series of snapshots in time. This data does NOT include options or hedging positions. Important data points to note:
Figure: 12 Silver Summary Table
Net positioning as a percent of total open interest has also dropped. It hit a multi-year low in June and has since turned up. The recent increase is being driven by the shorts.
Figure: 13 Net Positioning
Looking over the full history of the COTs data by month produces the chart below. Unlike gold, the “Other” category has remained surprisingly stable over this time.
Ignoring the Covid sell-off, gross longs are now at their lowest level since Nov 2018. This shows a general waning interest.
Figure: 14 Gross Open Interest
Looking at historical net positioning shows how far stretched managed money has become to the short side. Only in 2018-2019 has silver seen such a large net short position from Managed Money.
One thing to note is that Managed Money does not typically stay short for long. Since 2006, the longest streak of consecutive short months was for 5 months in 2018.
Figure: 15 Net Notional Position
The Option market is significantly smaller than gold and has continued to get smaller. Gross positioning is below $200M after getting close to $1.4B in 2020.
Figure: 16 Options Positions
Managed Money continues to dominate control over the market. Looking at the correlation table below shows gold at .92 and silver at an incredible .97. In gold, this is the highest correlation since 2019, and in silver, it is the highest in at least 6 years. The dominance in the market is striking!
Figure: 17 Correlation Table
Last month, the shorts looked a bit oversold and ready for a squeeze. The short covering provided a decent bounce that has now been fully reversed in silver and mostly reversed in gold. With the Fed still taking a very hawkish stance, sentiment in the precious metals market is extremely negative. While this is typically a sign of bottoming, it might be some time before precious metals get their momentum back.
Despite the massive selling and negative sentiment, the price has held up okay. The last time sentiment was this bad in 2018, the silver price was $4 lower and gold was almost $450 lower. Perhaps this is due to the underlying strength in the physical market where Registered silver has fallen below 50m ounces and combined gold inventory is down more than 20% since May.
The speculative moves of Managed Money is unrelated to the physical market as they try to position for maximum leverage and paper profits. Eventually, these two markets will converge. While spec money is selling paper metal, smart money is taking advantage of low prices to buy physical and take it out of the Comex vault. Spec money is weak hands while physical ownership is strong hands. There should be no doubt which party will win out even if the spec money controls the short-term price movement. Long-term investors who want to protect themselves should follow the moves of the smart money and get hands on physical metal.

Billionaire former chairman of India's Tata group dies in car crash: Cyrus Mistry, 54, who was ousted in boardroom coup in 2016, is killed in smash that left one other dead and two injured
- He was travelling to Mumbai when the Mercedes he was in hit a bridge divider
- Prime Minister Narendra Modi led tributes to the 'promising business leader'
- Mr Mistry was chairman of Tata, India's largest conglomerate, from 2012 to 2016
- His death today comes just two months after that of his father Pallonji Mistry, 93
India’s prime minister has led tributes to one of the country’s most prominent businessmen, who was famously ousted in a boardroom coup in 2016, who was killed today in a road accident.
Narendra Modi described the billionaire former chairman of Tata, India’s largest conglomerate which has an annual revenue of $128billion, Cyrus Mistry as a ‘promising business leader’ and said his ‘passing away is a big loss to the world of commerce and industry’.
Mr Mistry, 54, was travelling from Ahmedabad to Mumbai when the Mercedes he was in hit a divider on a bridge in Palghar at around 3.15pm today.
One other person was killed and two passengers were injured, police in India’s western Maharastra state said. Mr Mistry’s body was taken to the Kasa Rural Hospital in Gujarat for a post-mortem examination.
The news is the latest blow for the Mistry family, which lost its patriarch Pallonji Mistry just two months ago at the age of 93.
Cyrus Mistry, 54, died at the scene of a car crash today, when the Mercedes he was travelling in (pictured) collided with a divider on a bridge in Palghar
Mr Mistry was chairman of Tata, India's largest conglomerate, from 2012 to 2016 (pictured at the company's annual general meeting in 2014)
The family construction company, Shapoorji Pallonji, which started more than 150 years ago and today employs more than 50,000 people, has built iconic buildings including the Oberoi Hotel in Mumbai and the blue-and-gold Al Alam palace for the Sultan of Oman.
But Pallonji Mistry made his real fortune from being the largest individual shareholder- 18.5% as of early 2022- in Tata Sons, a trading group with interests in everything from construction to chemicals to communications and which owns Tetley Tea and Jaguar Land Rover.
His son Cyrus was named chairman of Tata Sons in 2012, becoming only the second top official not to bear the Tata family name. But he was publicly ousted just four years later following criticism of his performance.
The courtroom battle between Cyrus and his replacement, Ratan Tata, sparked a long-running legal battle in which India's top court eventually ruled in Tata Group’s favour by saying that Cyrus’s ouster was legal.
Cyrus’s older brother, Shapoor Mistry, is chairman of the SP Group, one of India’s largest construction firms. The siblings, who along with their two sisters became automatic Irish citizens by virtue of their Dublin-born mother Patsy Perin Dubash, set up venture capital firm Mistry Ventures LLP in 2018.
India's prime minister Narendra Modi led tributes to the businessman, saying that his ‘passing away is a big loss to the world of commerce and industry’
A graduate in civil engineering from London's Imperial College and in management from the London Business School, Cyrus Mistry described himself as a voracious reader of business books and a golfer, and shared his family's love of horses.
He is survived by his wife Rohiqa and their two sons, Firoz and Zahan.
Several prominent politicians and industrialists tweeted their condolences after news of the 54-year-old’s passing was reported including Tata Sons chairman N. Chandrasekaren, who said he was ‘deeply saddened by the sudden and untimely demise’ of Mr Mistry, who he described as having had ‘a passion for life’.
Meanwhile, Indian politician Devendra Fadnavis, the current Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra, paid a ‘heartfelt tribute’ to Mr Mistry, who he described as modest and a great personality.
He added that the Director General of Police had been asked to conduct a thorough investigation into the accident. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11178935/Billionaire-former-chairman-Indias-Tata-group-Cyrus-Mistry-dies-car-crash-age-54.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490 | 2022-09-04T18:32:51Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11178935/Billionaire-former-chairman-Indias-Tata-group-Cyrus-Mistry-dies-car-crash-age-54.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490 | true | 3 |
The expectation, now, is with the expansion of the coverage radius. According to Anatel’s rules, providers have until November 28 to complete the total structure of the capital to activate the service. The operators responsible for the service, Claro, TIM and Vivo, exposed to TRIBUNA DO NORTE their expectations regarding the implementation of the technology in RN and its expansion over the coming months.
In an interview with TRIBUNA DO NORTE, Claro’s regional director, André Peixoto, clarified that there is a plan for 5G coverage in Natal and that the structure for providing the service is ready. “The system is ready, we have already tested it and made the necessary final adjustments to already be offering 5G speed. So, we have already experienced high speeds, in Natal, but still on a test basis, making some angulations. But, officially it will be Monday that it should go on the air.”, explained the director.
Karina Tenório, regional director of Vivo, said that the company is already working on expanding the 5G signal to other areas of the city. “Vivo’s 5G is available to all the company’s customers. To access it, you must have a compatible device – Vivo has 50 models in its portfolio – and be within the coverage area, without extra charges for access”, said the director. Currently, Vivo has around three million customers (B2C) with 5G compatible devices across the country.
“Vivo started activation at the beginning of December last year, after being the company that won the most frequencies during the Anatel auction – whose total investment was R$ 4.5 billion (including about R$ 3.5 billion in financial contributions to EAF and EACE for the fulfillment of obligations) – using the 2.3GHz band in some capitals. Since the beginning of July, we have started to activate our network on the 3.5GHz frequency, in the capitals, using NSA and SA technologies”, she said.
From the capitals of the Northeast, they will receive 5G starting this Monday, Natal, Recife and Fortaleza. The order was defined by Anatel. “We had been planning this for a while, but we are following the schedule of cities by Anatel”, explained the regional director of Claro, André Peixoto. The cities of Brasília, Belo Horizonte, Curitiba, Florianópolis, Goiânia, João Pessoa, Palmas, Porto Alegre, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, São Paulo and Vitória already have stations of this technology in operation.
The official release for the activation of stations with 5G technology was approved on Thursday (1st), by the Monitoring Group for the Implementation of Solutions for Interference Problems in the 3,625 to 3,700 MHz band (Gaispi), of the National Telecommunications (Anatel).
The fifth generation of mobile internet is already offered by some operators, however, it is used in 4G frequencies and 5G antennas, not being characterized as pure 5G. The new tool offers an average speed of 1 Gigabit (Gbps), ten times higher than the 4G signal, with the possibility of reaching up to 20 Gbps. In addition, the signal has lower latency (delay) in data transmission. “The more speed, the less latency in the transmission, so you can make more applications, you can deliver more content, you can provide better experiences and that’s what 5G in practice will do,” said André Peixoto.
With the arrival of 5G, Natal will be on the map of technological advancement. In total, with the completion of this stage, which has a maximum term until November 28, there will be at least 33 stations operating fifth-generation internet in the capital. With that, says the director, “the new tool will bring improvements to the sectors of industry, agribusiness, health, retail, finance and smart cities”.
Arrival of 5G expands horizons in the state
5G will use fiber optic cables and antennas for signal transmission. The model is almost 100 times faster than 4G. In this way, the new technology will allow the connection of devices and equipment such as home appliances and cars to the internet, expanding automation in various sectors, such as industry and even medical care.
“The arrival of this generation in the most varied segments of the economy and in general makes everyone for industry 4.0, science, agriculture, entertainment, utilities, logistics, they will go through a much faster digitalization process, perhaps never seen before. And 5G favors the creation of new solutions to transform the way companies and public institutions operate”, declared Gomes.
According to the 5G auction notice, operators follow the determination to install an antenna for every 100,000 inhabitants. By the end of the project implementation, in 2029, which is Anatel’s deadline, it is expected that the fifth generation internet will arrive in municipalities with less than 30 thousand inhabitants.
5G drives the used cell phone market
Used cell phones gain space in 2022, driven both by the desire for a device compatible with the new 5G internet and by the reduction in the purchasing power of Brazilians, who are looking for alternatives to smartphones that start from R$ 1 thousand and can reach R$ 15.5 thousand. The cheapest 5G phones on the market today are the Galaxy M23, from Samsung, and the Xiaomi Redmi 9, which sell for up to R$1,500. On used product websites, you can find devices with 5G from R$650, such as Motorola’s Moto G 5G.
The average price of the cell phone category in Brazil was R$ 1,845.25 in 2021, up 19.51% compared to 2020, according to consultancy IDC.
Of the more than 40,000 mobile ads on OLX’s sales platform, half are already 5G-compatible smartphones. According to Regina Botter, general manager of OLX, normally the price of a used cell phone on the company’s digital platform can be up to 38% lower than that of a new one. “An item can have three or four useful lives. On average, our consumers have R$ 4 thousand in products that they no longer use and can be marketed as used. extra money for those who have something to sell”, he says.
Reinaldo Sakis, market research manager at IDC, says that, in addition to the interest in looking for a device compatible with the new mobile internet network, Brazilians need to spend less, which leads to the search for used cell phones. “The trend of sales growth of used cell phones has to do with the national moment. Brazilians do not have enough income to buy a new smartphone, but it is a necessary product”, says Sakis. According to research by IDC, the revenue of the used smartphone market in Brazil was estimated at R$ 2.8 billion in 2021, with an expectation of reaching R$ 5 billion in 2024.
platforms
Listed on B3, the Brazilian stock exchange, Allied Tecnologia, which operates in the distribution of electronics in the country, notes that the average spend on the purchase of devices rose from R$506 in the second quarter of 2021 to R$750 in 2022.
At the end of last year, the company announced the acquisition of Brused, which buys and sells used iPhones. In June, the company launched a new e-commerce portal, Trocafy, where it will sell products from all brands.
Like Trocafy, Trocafone buys cell phones and renovates them to resell them with quality and guarantee certification.
“We have already gone through the migration to 4G in the past. What happens in these changes is that most operators want to migrate their customer base to the new technology.
This increases the number of used devices in the inventory”, says Guille Freire, co-founder and CEO of the company. (AE)

IndyCar listens, responds to drivers over Portland start
IndyCar will endeavor to avoid chaos in the first corner of the Grand Prix of Portland after listening to drivers’ ideas and observing support race pile-ups.
Teams and drivers have been notified that providing the 25-car field is in correct two-abreast formation through Turn 11, the acceleration zone for the polesitter – Team Penske-Chevrolet’s Scott McLaughlin – at the start of the race will be the exit of Turn 12, onto the pit straight.
The idea is that the field will have stretched out by the time the cars arrive at the brake zone, and there won’t be the traditional aggressive four-into-two-won’t-go shambles at the notorious Turn 1 right-left-right chicane. Will Power, who will start alongside teammate McLaughlin on the front row, spelled out the issue earlier today explaining that it’s all too tempting for drivers to try and slice up the inside at Turn 1 to make places on those attempting to run the traditional racing line up to hard-braking for Turn 2.
So although McLaughlin will get the green early out of T12 and therefore the cars arrive at Turn 1 that much faster – therefore decreasing the margin for error in terms of entry speed on cold tires – the hope is that passing maneuvers there will see cars running two abreast, rather than three- or four-abreast, allowing more room for lateral adjustments in line.
The weekend’s support races in the Road To Indy have seen organizers try to reduce Lap 1/Turn 1 speed by waving the green flag late on the straight, but chaos has ensued due to the cars still being packed so close together.
IndyCar has also informed the field that drivers who shortcut Turn 2 by going on the left side of the curbing there “must make every effort to utilize the second Turn 1 runoff chicane [nearest to Turn 3 exit]. Failure to follow this procedure will result in a review and penalties may apply.”

Palmeiras was 2-2 with Red Bull Bragantino, Saturday, in Bragança Paulista. With an eye on the decisive game with Athletico, in Libertadores, Abel Ferreira decided to use a reserve team. In the second half, with the adverse score, the Portuguese gradually placed their holders.
With Merentiel, the São Paulo team reached the tie and, by a little, didn’t get the comeback at the end of the match. On social media, Palmeiras fans were scolded by the choice of coach. The result could make the team lose a little more of its advantage over Flamengo.
So too thinks Benjamin Back, who disapproved of Abel Ferreira’s decision. Despite considering Palmeiras the favorite for the title, the presenter draws attention to the short cast.
“I still think that Palmeiras will be the Brazilian champion, they have a team, but they are in a difficult moment. It’s taking a tumble. Palmeiras is taking a dip, missing a squad. Leila Pereira, who criticized the good and cheap, replaced the pieces with some dubious signings. Common, normal players, some even technically weak”, says Benja.
“I didn’t understand Abel Ferreira’s stance. In the same way that I praise, I can also criticize. For me, he went wrong against Red Bull Bragantino. If you want to save a starter, you don’t even take it to the game, why take it? Did you put it on the bench to put Dudu, Rony and Zé Rafael at the time of trouble? Is it to save or not to save? Would you only save if you had won? It’s wrong. And another thing, Abel, you have Navarro, Flaco López, Tabata, can’t you give Endrick a chance? What will you wait for? If Palmeiras loses the title, does he leave for Europe when he turns 18? Heck, give the kid a chance, even more than Palmeiras don’t have options today. They have a good, strong team, but not a robust squad like Flamengo”, he adds.
Abel makes a mystery at Libertadores
At the press conference, the coach was asked about Raphael Veiga’s situation. In the first game, in Curitiba, the midfielder had an ankle sprain and is a doubt for Tuesday.
– Let’s wait for Tuesday. Then you will know if Veiga plays, if another one plays. Since the beginning of the year I said that this season was going to test our physical limits, so let’s see what happens. We have to recover our players well. I believe that we have a whole team to be able, on Tuesday, to choose those who will guarantee us the best performance with the intention of reaching the final.
How is it?
With this tie, Palmeiras goes to 51 points, but can see the difference for the competitors decrease. If Flamengo beat Ceará, the distance becomes five points | https://playcrazygame.com/2022/09/04/benja-points-out-a-problem-at-palmeiras-and-criticizes-abel-ferreiras-stance/ | 2022-09-04T18:35:11Z | https://playcrazygame.com/2022/09/04/benja-points-out-a-problem-at-palmeiras-and-criticizes-abel-ferreiras-stance/ | true | 2 |

O Minister Luis Roberto Barrosoof Federal Supreme Court (STF)suspended, by means of an injunction, the national nursing floor, approved by the National Congress. The judge’s decision is preliminary, that is, provisional.
According to the magistrate, it is necessary to assess how is the employability framework in the area with the new law, which regulates the salary floor for nurses and nursing technicians across the country. In addition, Barroso understood that the change can generate financial problems in the states, in addition to the risk of closing beds.
The minister answered a request from the National Confederation of Health, Hospitals and Establishments and Services (CNSaúde), which questioned the constitutionality of law 14.434/2022 and alleges that it runs the risk of mass layoffs, as the private sector would not be able to afford the new wages.
The legislation provides for a salary floor of R$ 4,750 for nurses; 70% of this amount to nursing technicians; and 50% to nursing assistants and midwives. The minister stressed the importance of professionals for the health service and for the country. However, he stated that the law was passed without providing for strategies to fund the new values.
“Basically, the argument that the Legislature approved the project and the Executive sanctioned it without taking care of the measures that would make its execution feasible, such as, for example, increasing the SUS reimbursement table to the partner network, seems plausible. In this case, they would have wanted to have the benefit bonus without the burden of increasing their own expenses, outsourcing the account”, he declared.

Barroso gave 60 days for public entities, such as the Ministry of Labor and Welfare, the National Confederation of Health Workers, the Ministry of Health and the National Council of Health Secretaries to express their views on the subject. After that, the case can be taken to trial in the virtual plenary so that the other ministers decide whether or not to confirm the injunction that keeps the floor suspended. | https://playcrazygame.com/2022/09/04/in-preliminary-decision-barroso-suspends-salary-floor-for-nursing-professionals-in-brazil/ | 2022-09-04T18:36:31Z | https://playcrazygame.com/2022/09/04/in-preliminary-decision-barroso-suspends-salary-floor-for-nursing-professionals-in-brazil/ | false | 1 |

According to experts, not creating an interest rate ceiling can be a risk of over-indebtedness. Because of this, some banks are also resisting.
They claim that the portion of the population that receives the benefit is vulnerable and that there is a risk of default.

Despite resistance, the ceiling set for pre-registered institutions is up to 80% per yearmore than double that charged to civil servants, retirees and pensioners.
The objective is to finance the population in extreme poverty and in situations of poverty before the elections, on October 2nd.
In the eyes of the President of the Republic, this would help to make him more popular for a possible second term.
BANKS REJECT THE BRAZIL AID LOAN
Large private banks said that will not offer the line of credit. Among them, Bradesco, Itaú, Santander, Nubank and BMG. According to the minister, this does not mean that the market is not interested in offering credit linked to Auxílio Brasil.
“Today we already have almost 17 financial institutions approved by the Ministry of Citizenship capable of granting payroll loans. It is a number that shows the market’s interest in making payroll loans available to this population”commented the minister, without naming names.
WHEN WILL THE AUXILIO BRAZIL LOAN BE RELEASED?
Despite being sanctioned, some criteria still need to be defined in the Ministry of Citizenship, among them the complementary standards so that financial institutions can start credit operations.
According to the ministry, the rules are expected to be published by the beginning of next month. This way, the loan can be released to Auxílio Brasil beneficiaries in September.
“The law was approved, sanctioned by the president, soon afterwards the president signed a decree. The ordinance, the system for granting, licensing, homologation of these companies, a series of documents as well. I believe that until the beginning of next month it will be all regulated,” Bento said at a press conference at Palácio do Planalto.
WHO IS ENTITLED TO THE AUXÍLIO BRAZIL LOAN
Anyone who receives Brazil aid You can apply for the loan from the banks that offer the modality.
According to the government, more than 20 million families will receive the payment by the end of August. People registered at BeContinuing Payment Benefit (BPC) are also released to make the payroll loan.
DANGERS OF THE AUXILIO BRAZIL LOAN?
Entities and specialists criticize the offer of consigned credit through the Brazil aid. They say that the measure is dangerous, after all the benefit resources are normally used for basic survival expenses.
With the loan, however, the citizen can have up to 40% of the amount received discounted.
IS THERE A MAXIMUM AMOUNT FOR THE BRAZIL AUXILIA LOAN?
The law approved by the deputies and senators, and sanctioned by the President of the Republic, defines that the payment of installments to the bank cannot use more than 40% of the amount received, of R$400.
Therefore, there is no maximum amount, as long as the installment does not exceed R$ 160 per month to pay the debt. | https://playcrazygame.com/2022/09/04/loan-consigned-aid-brazil-released-in-september-see-here-how-much-you-can-withdraw-and-check-the-latest-news-and-the-calendar-emprestimo-auxilio-brasil/ | 2022-09-04T18:37:22Z | https://playcrazygame.com/2022/09/04/loan-consigned-aid-brazil-released-in-september-see-here-how-much-you-can-withdraw-and-check-the-latest-news-and-the-calendar-emprestimo-auxilio-brasil/ | false | 2 |
Solomon Islands asks navies not to send ships pending review
The Solomon Islands on Wednesday asked countries to not send naval vessels to the South Pacific nation until approval processes are overhauled, amid concerns over a new security pact between the Solomons and China.
The government made the request after the U.S. Coast Guard cutter Oliver Henry and the British navy patrol boat HMS Spey canceled planned port calls last week due to bureaucratic delays.
The United States and Britain are among countries concerned that a new security pact with Beijing could lead to a Chinese naval base being constructed less than 2,000 kilometers (1,200 miles) off Australia’s northeast coast.
Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare said the Oliver Henry crew had failed to provide required information in time for his office to approve the visit. The Oliver Henry refueled at Papua New Guinea instead.
The HMS Spey withdrew its application to visit, Sogavare said.
“The delay in these approvals demonstrate the need for the government to review and refine its approval requirements and procedures for visiting military vessels to Solomon Islands,” Sogavare said in a statement.
“To this end, we have requested our partners to give us time to review and put in place our new processes before sending further requests for military vessels to enter the country."
He said the new process would universally apply to all visiting military vessels.
The American and British ships had been taking part in Operation Island Chief, which monitors fishing in the region.
The Coast Guard said the Oliver Henry diverted to the Papua New Guinea capital Port Moresby after the Solomons’ government failed to respond to a request for diplomatic clearance to land in the country.
Britain’s Royal Navy did not comment directly on reports that the HMS Spey was denied a port call in the Solomons.
Australian police have been maintaining peace in the Solomons under a bilateral security treaty since rioting in the capital Honiara late last year.
The Australian center-left Labor Party, which was elected to government in May, described the Sino-Solomons security pact as Australia’s worst foreign policy failure in the Pacific since World War II.
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese declined to say whether intelligence officials had warned him not to send warships.
“I don’t discuss the briefings that I receive on national security,” Albanese told reporters.
“Australia is very engaged with our Pacific neighbors and indeed Prime Minister Sogavare is going to visit Australia and I will welcome his visit,” Albanese added. The date of the visit has yet to be announced.
Australian Defense Minister Richard Marles said whether military vessels were allowed to visit the Solomons was a question for the Solomons’ government.
“I’m confident that if we put in the work as a nation, we will be the partner of choice for Solomon Islands and we are putting in that work,” Marles said.
Asked if he had sought clarification from the Solomons, Marles said there were “ongoing conversations” with Honiara.
The U.S. Navy hospital ship USNS Mercy is currently in Honiara.

BRUSSELS, September 4. /TASS/. The European Union changed its ambassador to Moscow on a scheduled basis and German diplomat Markus Ederer, who has already left Moscow, will be succeeded by Roland Galharague of France, a diplomatic source in Brussels told TASS on Sunday.
"The rotation of the head of the EU delegation to Russia is carried out on a schedule basis. Markus Ederer has left Russia and this post will soon be taken by France’s former Ambassador to Malaysia Roland Galharague. His appointment was endorsed by EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell in June," the source said.
The diplomat noted that despite the unprecedented crisis in relations with Russia over the conflict in Ukraine, "the European Union upholds the position that diplomatic channels of communication with Moscow should be kept open."
In an interview with RTVI recorded on August 31 and released on Friday, Ederer said that August 31 was his last working day as the EU Ambassador to Russia.
Ederer was born in 1957 in Germany. In 1988, he started his career in the German Foreign Ministry; between 1990 and 1993 he served in the economic department of the German Embassy in Moscow. After a number of diplomatic offices, he served in the German Federal Intelligence Service (BND), where he headed the department of political and economic analysis. Later, he continued his service in the Foreign Ministry. On May 16, 2017, he was appointed the EU Ambassador to Moscow, succeeding Lithuania’s Vigaudas Usackas. | https://tass.com/world/1502373 | 2022-09-04T18:47:18Z | https://tass.com/world/1502373 | false | 2 |
‘History’ hikes commemorate International Underground Railroad Month in Montgomery County
MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Md. - September is International Underground Railroad Month in Maryland.
The month recognizes known freedom seekers and underground railroad operatives, Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tubman, when they escaped from slavery.
Saturday, Montgomery County commemorated the month by offering history tours, highlighting the struggles of the freedom seekers.
Whether you’re a hiker or a history buff, the two merged together at Woodlawn Manor Cultural Park in Sandy Spring.
During the month of September, attendees will get to walk along the underground railroad experience which acknowledges the contribution of all those involved in the abolition of slavery in the United States.
"So the underground railroad was a loose secret network of people and places that helped freedom seekers make their way to freedom so this looks like everything from conductors like Harriet Tubman who were literally leading people from the places they were enslaved and taking them to freedom to safe houses," explained Cameron Walpole, education program manager at Woodlawn Manor Cultural Park.
The underground railroad was throughout the border states like in Maryland and Montgomery County in particular, has a large connection with the structure.
"So whenever we are able to really call out a Marylander who made this courageous journey, we want to do that in as much detail as possible," said Walpole.
Visitors on these forested guided hikes get to discover techniques that were used to escape to freedom.
"So the journeys that freedom seekers took were incredibly challenging," said Walpole. "They were different for every single person who made the journey and these stories don’t often get told because what they were doing, was in secret."
Some people who participated in the two-mile round trip hike said they are inspired by the strength and the risks, the freedom seekers took, while enduring such struggles and challenges.
"It was just important to me, with it being so close, it would be a shame not to come and take advantage of an opportunity to learn more about our history and what our ancestors went through to find their freedom," said one participant FOX 5 spoke with.
The trail hikes are conducted at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. and are appropriate for ages 7 and up. An $8 admission fee also grants access to the Woodlawn Museum. | https://www.fox5dc.com/news/history-hikes-commemorate-international-underground-railroad-month-in-montgomery-county | 2022-09-04T18:56:34Z | https://www.fox5dc.com/news/history-hikes-commemorate-international-underground-railroad-month-in-montgomery-county | true | 1 |
(WGN Radio) – New kittens lured nine-year-old Savannah Grahl, her 11-year-old sister, and a friend into a barn at a farm near Eden, Wisconsin. Huge hay bales – the large rectangular ones that can weigh up to 1,000 pounds – were stacked there.
The girls knew of the danger and had been told to stay off them, but the kittens were too tempting to play with, Savannah’s mother Tara.
In an emotional interview with WGN Radio, Tara retold the harrowing story of what happened last month when two of the giant bales fell and trapped her child.
“I heard my older daughter screaming. She said, ‘Savannah’s pinned,'” Tara said. When she ran to the barn, she saw her daughter pinned up against a steel post by a two bales that had fallen when the pallet they were stacked on collapsed.
Savannah was unconscious and wasn’t breathing, her face purple, Tara said.
Tara said adrenaline gave her and her sister-in-law the strength to shove the bale off of Savannah enough for her to fall out of the way. They were able to get her breathing and to the hospital. She was admitted to the ICU.
WBAY reports she had a fractured skull and was put on a ventilator because of swelling in her airway.
On average, a child days in a farming accident every three days in the United States, according to the National Children’s Center for Rural and Agricultural Health and Safety. Thankfully, it appears Savannah is recovering. | https://www.ourquadcities.com/news/national-news/girl-crushed-by-hay-bale-in-wisconsin-farm-accident/ | 2022-09-04T18:56:52Z | https://www.ourquadcities.com/news/national-news/girl-crushed-by-hay-bale-in-wisconsin-farm-accident/ | false | 20 |
It's been nearly two months since the new Google Wallet launched, either replacing or living alongside Google Pay, depending on your region. The company's latest attempt to reinvigorate its mobile payment strategy adds tickets, IDs, and more alongside the usual debit and credit cards. It's a move that proves just how vital contactless payments are these days, with Samsung and Apple also offering their own mobile platforms.
It's no secret that Google's strategy can be confusing at times. The company launched the original version of Wallet way back in 2011 as a peer-to-peer payment service before joining with Android Pay in 2018. That mixture created Google Pay, a one-size-fits-all service for sending money and making payments at stores, but it didn't take long for the company to try and reinvigorate the service. A relaunched Pay arrived in a handful of countries — India, Singapore, and the US — where it still exists today, but rather than bring it to new regions, we finally got a new Google Wallet this summer.
It might not hit the messiness levels of Google's messaging strategies, but it's clear that the company has yet to lock down a straightforward, easy-to-understand payment platform. And yet, contactless transactions are everywhere these days. Even in the US, which has undoubtedly lagged behind over the last decade compared to other regions, finding a store that's branded with the contactless symbol isn't tough.
When we last did this poll over three years ago, over half of the respondents had made the switch to using contactless payments every chance they got. At the time, I couldn't count myself among them — it wasn't until the pandemic really hit that I started using my phone during checkout, usually bypassing the need to interact physically with terminals altogether. These days, I use my phone to cash out every chance I get, and the few stores that don't support contactless payments — looking at you, Home Depot — are as frustrating as ever.
So, how often are you relying on contactless payments? With this poll, we're specifically talking phones, smartwatches, and other wearables, or any other gadget that supports mobile payment platforms. Although tap-to-pay cards are more prevalent than ever, we're specifically not thinking of RFID. And, as usual when revisiting polls, we've kept the options the same as three years ago to better understand how user behavior has evolved since 2019. | https://www.androidpolice.com/weekend-poll-how-often-do-you-use-contactless-payments/ | 2022-09-04T18:59:24Z | https://www.androidpolice.com/weekend-poll-how-often-do-you-use-contactless-payments/ | false | 1 |

A 26-year-old woman has disclosed that she is married and has had children with a spirit being for 26 years.
The ‘Goddess of Water’ as she identifies herself, claims she is a spirit and a human being who can move between realms.
Speaking with Youtuber, Arnold Elavanyo, she stated that when she sleeps in her bed at night, she always finds herself in the spiritual realm, especially in the sea.
“When I sleep I see myself in the water and when I got initiated I got married in the water. I am 26 years old now and I have been married for 26 years. I got married very young to a spirit in the water.
“For 26 years I have never been married physically nor had a human boyfriend. I can't have one because just as human beings are jealous so are the spirits. I can't have anything with any human being,” she disclosed.
According to the self-acclaimed ‘Goddess of the Water’, should she have anything to do with any human being, not her spiritual husband, the likelihood of him dying is very high.
“If I get involved with any man that man will die. I won't even try having anything with any man. I don't want to hurt people's feelings or hurt anyone.
“Men propose to me, a lot of people do and I tell them I don't want. As a woman, you have the right to tell people what you want and what you don't want,” she added.

- Antony scored on United debut
- Saka equalised for the Gunners
- Rashford settled game with two second-half strikes
WHAT HAPPENED? After Arsenal saw Gabriel Martinelli's opener ruled out by VAR, Antony scored on his maiden United start to make it 1-0. Bukayo Saka levelled on the hour before Rashford struck twice to earn his side all three points.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: This was Arsenal's first big test of the season and they faltered, with their 100 per cent winning start coming to an end despite a promising performance. Meanwhile, United put in another statement performance which further suggested that their disastrous first two games of the campaign were a blip.
ALL EYES ON: Erik ten Hag made a big call starting Antony so soon after his arrival, but the Brazilian immediately repaid his faith. His debut goal was sumptuous and the winger's overall contribution will be enough to get United fans very excited indeed.
MATCH IN THREE PHOTOS:
DID YOU KNOW? Antony became the 100th Brazilian to appear in the Premier League this afternoon, as well as the youngest player from his country to score on their debut.
THE VERDICT:
Remember when they said VAR would end debates over refereeing decisions?
And the alternative view.
A new hero at Old Trafford?
Few disagreed that Arsenal deserved their equaliser.
Is Rashford back to his best?

When Alyssa Grocutt’s father died, the funeral home engraved his fingerprints onto a necklace for her to keep as a memento.
Thirteen years later, Alyssa still wears the necklace daily. It’s the only physical object she now carries with her to remind her of her dad, but in 2008 — in the immediate aftermath of his death at an oilsands site in northern Alberta — her grief was so raw that she clung to anything he had once touched or used.
“There was one screwdriver he had that for the longest time I slept with. I slept in his T-shirts,” says Alyssa, who was 11 years old at the time.
Kevin Grocutt was 40 years old and had been working for 10 months as a heavy duty mechanic contracted to Suncor Energy Inc. when the broken-down haul truck he was trying to fix rolled, catching him under the tire.
Alyssa was at homewith her mother, who was preparing dinner, when a police officer knocked on the door.
“It certainly made me grow up faster than a lot of my peers,” Alyssa says. “It was very challenging.”
Kevin Grocutt was one of 1,035 people in Canada who died of work-related causes in 2008, according to statistics from the Association of Workers’ Compensation Boards of Canada.
Since then, 945 people, on average, have died from workplace injuries or illnesses every year in this country, according to the same source.Though the exact number fluctuates up and down slightly, it has not declined in any meaningful way over the years despite Canada having some of the most stringent occupational health and safety laws in the developed world, according to some experts. It’s also in spite of ever-increasing awareness campaigns, improved technology and corporate protocols.
“I often hear people say, ‘Oh, with new technologies, we must be seeing these numbers go down.’ But we’re not,” says Alyssa, who is now a PhD candidate at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ont., where she researches the impact workplace injuries and fatalities have on the victim’s family, colleagues, and supervisors.
“When we look at it over time, we’re seeing these numbers either stable or increasing.”
In recent months, a high-profile string of workplace deaths at Suncor, and the resulting criticism of the company by well-known U.S.-based activist investor Elliott Investment Management, has thrust the issue of workplace safety back into the spotlight.
Since 2014 alone, the Calgary-based company has had at least 12 fatalities at its oilsands facilities in northern Alberta, more than all of its industry peers combined. Former CEO Mark Little pledged earlier this year to address the problem, and the company carried out an independent safety review. Yet in spite of these efforts, in July, another Suncor contract worker died on the job. The company announced Little’s resignation the next day.
Kris Sims, who has been named interim CEO until a permanent replacement is found, told analysts last month that the company already knows what it must do to improve its safety performance and now must “execute.” He didn’t provide details, but the company is set to hold an investor presentation this fall to update the financial community on its plans.
“Suncor, a large company, is continually looking at quality control and improvement and yet there continues to be tragedies,” says Shirley Hickman, founder and executive director of Threads of Life, a non-profit organization that aims to support families affected by workplace fatalities, injuries and occupational diseases.
“So what happens to the small employer who doesn’t have the same resources as a Suncor? There’s more and more promotion around workplace safety, so what is that puzzle piece that we’re missing?”
Hickman — whose own son Tim was about to turn 21 and was working part-time for the City of London, Ont. in March of 1996 when he was fatally injured in an arena explosion — said she believes many organizations are still struggling with embedding safety in the workplace culture. They may have all the proper rules and procedures down on paper, but shortcuts are still being taken on the job.
“If a worker sees something that they feel is unsafe, they have to feel free to bring that to their supervisor,” Hickman said, adding she believes many workers are still reluctant to be the “squeaky wheel.”
“And if they’re not being heard, they have to have the confidence to step aside – or, if necessary, leave their job. But that is hard to do.”
Wynny Sillito of Calgary says she wishes more people were aware of the ripple effects of workplace accidents and injuries. In 2011, she was a 23-year-old paramedic, part of a team who responded to reports of an accidental chemical release at an oil and gas site near Grande Prairie, Alta. While attempting to assist the worker who had been injured, Sillito herself was exposed and suffered chemical burns all over her upper body.
She recovered from her injuries, but Sillito’s mental and emotional journey was gruelling. She was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder, which she still deals with to this day.
“You don’t have to be the one who loses a limb or loses a piece of themselves to have your life forever changed,” Sillito said.
Because she herself was injured on an oil and gas site, Sillito said she’s found the headlines about Suncor and its string of tragedies “devastating.”
“Oil and gas is this big, broad industry and so many people are connected to it in some way,” she said. “Every time there’s a fatality, it doesn’t matter what caused it — anyone who loves someone who works in oil and gas will end up feeling that stress.”
That’s certainly true for Alyssa Grocutt. Every time a workplace death makes the news, she flashes back to that day in 2008 that changed her life forever.
“It’s hard hearing of another fatality, especially when it’s in a similar location to where my dad was. Some are even in similar situations,” she said. “Always, I think about the families that are left behind and also the co-workers who had to witness it.”

With Electric Picnic still underway in sunshine between the showers, the 2023 event is already being arranged, the promoter has revealed.
Speaking on Sunday (September 4) at the festival, Melvin Benn described the return of the festival in Laois as "glorious".
"It is hard to know what's better. Is it what acts we bring or what the audience brings? The two collide and it's an amazing thing, the spirit, the craic. The amount of people that are stopping me and telling me how they were waiting for this.
"The picnic is the point where Covid gets put behind us, it's the last show where people were hanging on to their tickets," Melvin Benn said.
Despite the torrential rain forecast throughout the weekend, he said there were very few low points.
He said, "[There were] lots of highs actually, lots of highs. I think the low is that it's going to finish, the low is that today's the last day, the low is that Monday we'll pack it all up and we have to wait for another year."
This year's festival went from 55,000 to 70,000 ticket holders, with Mr Benn confirming there are no plans to expand capacity in the immediate future, calling the main arena "magnificent".
"Not in 2023," he said.
"I don't think there's a better main stage festival arena in the world better than that one now and with the screens and stage presence it's glorious, it's unbelievable. Overall I don't feel like I'm moving anything next year, I moved quite a few things this year, I don't think I'm moving anything next year so a bit of stability there," he added.
The promoter has huge hopes for the future in regards to sustainability and hopes to someday be able to power the main stage with renewable energy sources.
He said, "I think very big businesses should be doing that and Electric Picnic will certainly be making a stand on that position doing everything we can to do that."
Tickets for next year are going on sale this Saturday, he said, and there is another big change planned.
"It is going fully digital. There will be no more queues at Ticketmaster. The loyalty programme will continue," he said.
They are already in discussion with performers for next year, however Mr Benn did not drop any hints.
Despite mucky paths and quite a few soaked tents and sleeping bags, the rain stopped early Sunday morning leaving the day unexpectedly sunny.
According to Mr Benn, it is down to the ideal location of Stradbally in Laois.
"The local hills managed that," Melvin said, explaining how a local told him that rain breaks on the hills north of Laois taking the brunt away from the valley of Stradbally.
He feels that Laois has truly welcomed the picnic back, after a two year break due to the Covid pandemic.
"Laois has been really really welcoming, literally across the board, everyone has been really welcoming," he said.
He is proud to have returned the festival at a bigger size to Laois.
"It's huge pride but part of that pride is being able to bring so many creative people together. So many creative people help make the picnic what it is. Giving them that opportunity to express themselves is actually also a source of pride for me. They make the picnic what it is," Mr Benn said.

Congress leaders urge Rahul to return as president, hit out at those who left party
The twin themes of price rise and unemployment dominated the discourse at the Mehengai Par Hall Bol rally by the Congress on Sunday, even as key leaders urged Rahul Gandhi to return as party president, took potshots at leaders who quit the Congress recently, defended freebies and attacked Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal.
The twin themes of price rise and unemployment dominated the discourse at the Mehengai Par Hall Bol rally by the Congress on Sunday, even as key leaders urged Rahul Gandhi to return as party president, took potshots at leaders who quit the Congress recently, defended freebies and attacked Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal.
Addressing the rally, Lok Sabha floor leader Adhir Chowdhury urged Gandhi to return as Congress president. “We want Rahul Gandhi as president,” Chowdhury said ahead of the party’s presidential election on October 17. Gandhi will walk 3,500 km, he said, before turning his focus on leaders who quit the Congress, possibly targeting Ghulam Nabi Azad.
“Entering the Congress or leaving it is very easy. But staying in the party is the real deal. Anyone can come or leave, but remember, the Congress is like a river that will reach its destination,” Chowdhury said.
Chhattisgarh chief minister Bhupesh Baghel questioned the Bharatiya Janata Party’s stand on freebies and claimed that the BJP in power is not fighting against price rise, but only fighting against Rahul Gandhi. “Now, there is a debate on revdi (freebies). When Congress fights for poor people, they call it revdi. When Modi gives to chosen people, it is rabdi, not revdi,” he said.
The other Congress chief minister, Ashok Gehlot of Rajasthan, attacked Kejriwal for his “lies”, compared the Modi government with fascism and said: “Modi wants Congress-mukt Bharat. In past so many years, no Gandhi family member has been the Prime Minister or any minister. What is your problem with the Gandhi family?”
While he maintained that India is respected because of Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Manmohan Singh and Rajiv Gandhi, Congress leader Tariq Anwar claimed the rally against price rise is to “awaken the sleeping government”. “The Congress party had thrown out the British, and now we have to fight to change the current situation,” Anwar said.
Former Maharashtra chief minister Ashok Chavan said women were finding it difficult manage household budgets due to spiraling prices. Party general secretary Mukul Wasnik dubbed Modi as an “abiineta” (actor). A key G23 leader, former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda joked how a customer pays a higher price for a second dosa as “by the time he finished first, cooking gas price has gone up.”
Party veteran Kamal Nath highlighted unemployment as the biggest challenge and said there is a high crime rate against women. “Can the BJP teach the Congress what is nationalism? Can they name a single leader who participated in independence movement? You give Rahul power. In the coming days, the Congress flag will be hoisted in Parliament and other assemblies,” Nath said.
The new Jammu and Kashmir party chief Vikar Rasool Wani questioned “how can a farmer run his family, educate his children and get his daughter married in such (high) inflation?” | https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/congress-leaders-urge-rahul-to-return-as-president-hit-out-at-those-who-left-party-101662315623171.html | 2022-09-04T19:44:35Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/congress-leaders-urge-rahul-to-return-as-president-hit-out-at-those-who-left-party-101662315623171.html | false | 2 |
Bed Bath & Beyond chief financial officer Gustavo Arnal dies
UNION, N.J. (AP) — Gustavo Arnal, the chief financial officer of retail chain Bed Bath & Beyond, has died, the company confirmed on Sunday.
The company said Arnal died on Friday. According to the New York City Police Department, police found the 52-year-old unconscious with injuries showing he fell from a building in Manhattan. He was pronounced dead at the scene and the New York City Medical Examiner’s Office will determine the cause of death. Police said an investigation was ongoing.
Arnal joined the company in May 2020 after previous stints at Avon, Walgreens Boots Alliance and Procter & Gamble.
“Gustavo will be remembered by all he worked with for his leadership, talent and stewardship of our Company. I am proud to have been his colleague, and he will be truly missed by all of us at Bed Bath & Beyond and everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him,” said Harriet Edelman, independent chair of the company’s board, in Sunday’s statement.
Bed Bath & Beyond has faced turbulence recently: Its shares made a monstrous run from $5.77 to $23.08 over a little more than two weeks in August, in trading reminiscent of last year’s meme-stock craze, when out-of-favor companies suddenly became darlings of smaller-pocketed investors. On Wednesday, the company said it would shutter stores and lay off workers in a bid to turn around its beleaguered business.
The home goods retailer based in Union, New Jersey, said it will close about 150 of its namesake stores and slash its workforce by 20%.

Veteran reporter in Las Vegas found dead outside his home with stab wounds, newspaper says
By Michelle Watson, CNN
The Las Vegas Review-Journal is mourning the loss of one of its own.
Jeff German, a journalist for more than 30 years in Las Vegas, was found dead outside of his home Saturday morning, the newspaper said. The paper said German was found with “stab wounds.”
“The Review-Journal family is devastated to lose Jeff,” said Executive Editor Glenn Cook, according to the paper. “He was the gold standard of the news business. It’s hard to imagine what Las Vegas would be like today without his many years of shining a bright light on dark places.”
Las Vegas Metropolitan Police (LVMPD) were called to the scene Saturday just after 10:30 a.m. local time, according to a department news release.
“Arriving officers and medical personnel pronounced the victim deceased at the scene,” the release said.
The police department did not identify German in its release but said that “the identification of the victim, as well as the cause and manner of death” would be released by the Clark County Coroner’s Office.
CNN has reached out to the Clark County Coroner’s Office for more information.
The homicide division of LVMPD is investigating, the release said.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A glider crashed near a skydiving company in Dubai on Sunday and its South African pilot was killed, the country's state-run news agency reported, just days after a similar incident.
The authorities did not specify the cause of the “amateur glider” crash, or elaborate on where exactly in the city the incident occurred. Dubai is a popular skydiving destination where parachutes can be seen daily over its skyscrapers and beaches.
Last Wednesday, a glider hurtled into the parking lot of the country's largest mosque, Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi. The pilot was injured. Authorities are still investigating the “technical malfunction” that led to the crash of that single-engine, fixed-wing aircraft. | https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4647736 | 2022-09-04T20:02:20Z | https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4647736 | false | null |

Andy Ruiz Jr. returns to action with a former two-time heavyweight title challenger.
The journey to regaining the heavyweight title continues on Sunday for Andy Ruiz Jr. as he takes on former two-time title challenger Luis Ortiz from Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
After pulling off one of the biggest upsets in boxing history in June 2019 when he stopped Anthony Joshua to claim three heavyweight titles, Ruiz’s only fought twice. First, he came up out of shape and lost a wide decision to Joshua in December 2019 and then got dropped but rebounded to win a decision over Chris Arreola in May 2021.
Ortiz has been a fixture atop heavyweight rankings for years, with his only defeats coming in memorable contests against former longtime heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder. Most recently, Ortiz stopped Charles Martin in the sixth round on New Year’s Day in an all-action affair.
The winner lines up themselves up for a significant fight in early 2023, while the loser has to think about their standing in the weight class.

Asia Cup cricket: Pakistan beat India in thrilling Super 4 finish
Pakistan edge out India off the penultimate ball of the match by five wickets.
Mohammad Rizwan top-scored with 71 as Pakistan beat India by five wickets in their opening Super Four game at the Asia Cup.
Chasing 182 for victory, a 73-run stand between Rizwan and the left-handed Mohammad Nawaz (42) helped Pakistan achieve their target with one ball to spare in Dubai on Sunday, the second time the two sides met in a week after having not played for almost a year.
Rizwan was out after his second successive half-century in the 17th over but Khushdil Shah, with his unbeaten 14, and Asif Ali, who made 16 off eight balls, made sure Pakistan got over the line against Arshdeep Singh.
Reprieved after Arshdeep dropped an easy catch at short third man, Asif hit a six and two fours before falling, with two balls left, leaving Iftikhar Ahmed to knock off the remaining two runs.

Earlier, Virat Kohli’s 60 guided India to 181 for seven after being asked to bat first by Babar Azam.
Kohli, who hit 60 off 44 balls before being run out in the final over, helped India survive a middle-order stutter to post a competitive total.
He reached his 32nd half-century in 36 balls with a six off pace bowler Mohammad Hasnain amid chants of “Kohli, Kohli” at a packed stadium.
Leg-spinner Shadab Khan stood out with figures of two for 31 from his four overs.
“It was a high-pressure game and you can’t let anything slip by,” said Indian captain Rohit Sharma after the game.
“When there was a partnership in the middle with Rizwan and Nawaz, we were still calm and believed [in ourselves], but the partnership went longer than we hoped and they played brilliantly. There will be times when things don’t go to plan but I do believe in the potential of these [younger] guys.
“It was a good learning experience when you play games like this. Usually, 180 is a good score on any pitch but if you don’t take wickets in the middle, it will always be tough.” | https://www.aljazeera.com/sports/2022/9/4/asia-cup-cricket-pakistan-beat-india-in-thrilling-super-4-finish | 2022-09-04T20:04:46Z | https://www.aljazeera.com/sports/2022/9/4/asia-cup-cricket-pakistan-beat-india-in-thrilling-super-4-finish | true | 1 |

Whether “feeling pretty” in West Side Story, walking the French streets in Les Miserables, or performing Little Drummer Boy at Melbourne’s Carols by Candlelight, Marina Prior has sung her way into the top tier of Australian talent – a position she plans to keep.
With multiple awards and over 30 lead roles to her name, Australia’s leading lady of musical theatre is ready to stun the nation two times over, beginning next year with her return to the “theatre masterpiece”, Mary Poppins.
“The opportunity to be in a production like this is something that you would never turn down ... It is an iconic show,” Prior said, before quickly admitting disdain for the over-used descriptor.
“Everyone says iconic, but it is ... It has incredible production values, it’s just gob-smacking. But at the heart of it, it’s the story about a fractured family who actually find themselves finally back together again, through the magic of this Mary Poppins.”
Having played Mrs Banks – mother of the young firecracker duo Jane and Michael – in its 2011 Melbourne season, the soprano singer will grace the Poppins stage once again, but in entirely different garb and with double the characters.
Testing her acting abilities, Prior, now 58, will make her comeback as both Miss Andrews – Mr Banks’ wicked former nanny who replaces Mary Poppins during the second act – and the Bird Woman, “an angel dressed up as a homeless woman”. The two characters could not have less in common, but Prior was prepared for the challenge, viewing it as part of her career’s natural progression.
“I started in the industry 40 years ago next year playing ingenues and romantic heroines, the good girl and the soprano and all that sort of thing,” Prior said, leaning forward in her chair as she looked back on the challenges she overcame.
“I had to fight really hard to move into character roles and comedic roles because people were sort of like, ‘No, no, no. You stay where you are.’ But I wanted to evolve.
“There’s a sense of, ‘I’m still here’ – 40 years later from doing Christine in Phantom [of the Opera] to now playing these roles. I’m really just proud of the fact that I can step into character roles, and I didn’t get left by the time I turned 30.”
Although still playing eight shows a week as Violet Newstead in Dolly Parton’s 9 to 5: The Musical, Prior said she had already embarked on coaching lessons, memorising dialogue, and re-capturing the magic defining Mary Poppins ahead of rehearsals in December.
Since her musical debut as Mabel in The Pirates of Penzance in 1983, Prior has performed in numerous groundbreaking productions, including Cats, The Sound of Music and West Side Story. But of all the shows, the Advance Australia Award winner said returning to Poppins was most akin to “coming home”, largely thanks to her producer Cameron Mackintosh who she credited with some of her most informative creative moments.
“I know the talent of the people in the show, and I know it’s going to be a wonderful experience. I’ve seen firsthand from last time what the effect on the audience is. They laugh, they cry. It’s lovely.”
Music surrounds Prior wherever she goes, her pitch-perfect humming filling the theatre’s hallways as she walks from A to B. Despite needing to memorise dialogue for two separate characters, undergo extreme costume changes, and learn an entirely new backstage plot, Prior has been here before. She knows what to do.
“I think after 40 years... I mean, I’m nervous on an opening night. But right now, when I think about it, I’m more excited than nervous.”
Mary Poppins will return to Melbourne’s Her Majesty’s Theatre in January 2023.

Shawangunk Grit Challenged Planned for November in New Paltz, NY
I am not a very athletic person in any way shape or form. I am strong but when it comes to endurance I am not your choice. This may be why I get so fascinated every time I hear about one of the amazing challenge races I see being held all over the Hudson Valley. I actually wonder what it would be like to accomplish some of the challenges I share with you.
Early this year, I told you about people swimming across the Hudson River and I also got the word out about the registration opening for Rock the Ridge. Now it is time to share another exciting outdoor challenge event that is sure to have avid bicyclists on their feet.
Shawangunk Grit Bike Challenge in New Paltz New York
The latest adventure I have found that I want to share with you is called the Shawangunk Grit. On the calendar for 8 AM Saturday, November 5th, 2022 this bicycling event looks exciting and tough. There are two different distances participants can ride to raise money for the Mohonk Preserve. Both courses begin and end at the Ulster County Fair Grounds on Libertyville road in New Paltz, NY.
This is not a race it is a challenge and it is being billed as an "Epic Gravel Ride on the Ridge to Benefit the Mohonk Preserve." Ride alone or bring a group. You can get more information on The Mohonk Preserve Facebook page or go to MohonkPreserve.org | https://hudsonvalleypost.com/shawangunk-grit-new-paltz-ny/ | 2022-09-04T20:12:43Z | https://hudsonvalleypost.com/shawangunk-grit-new-paltz-ny/ | false | 2 |
On the eve of the reopening of schools in Montego Bay, St James, the National Works Agency (NWA) surprised the town by completing works on the heavily-used Howard Cooke Bridge.
The bridge was reopened before midday today, three weeks ahead of schedule.
The double-strength concrete used by the contractors and the fast curing additives added to the concrete mix are among the things being credited for shortening the work time.
The project was planned for six weeks, and started on Sunday, August 21, ending on or before the end of September.

Cattle scam: CID arrests man close to key accused
kolkata: State Criminal Investigation Department (CID) on Saturday arrested a man from Jangipur in Murshidabad in connection with the cattle smuggling case that is being investigated by the state agency.
The accused, Jenarul Sheikh, was produced at the Berhampore court on Sunday and has been remanded to police custody for 12 days.According to sources, Sheikh was closely associated with Enamul Haque, prime accused of cattle smuggling case that is being investigated by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
Haque was arrested by the CBI and at present is in judicial custody. Jenarul used to run cow shed where he used to keep the unclaimed cattle that were seized by the Border Security Force (BSF).
It is alleged that he used to show a good number of cows as dead and smuggle those to Bangladesh.
It is suspected that a section of BSF and local police personnel were involved in the cattle smuggling. CID officials are trying to find out with whom Sheikh used to keep liaison for smuggling.
It may be mentioned that CBI has already arrested several people including a few BSF officers in connection with the case. CID is also probing the same issue based on the two cases which were registered in 2017 at Suti and Matia police station of Murshidabad. | http://www.millenniumpost.in/kolkata/cattle-scam-cid-arrests-man-close-to-key-accused-491958 | 2022-09-04T20:16:49Z | http://www.millenniumpost.in/kolkata/cattle-scam-cid-arrests-man-close-to-key-accused-491958 | true | 1 |
Zelenskiy aide posts photo of Ukraine soldiers taking back southern village
Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.com
Sept 4 (Reuters) - A senior aide to President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Sunday posted an image of soldiers raising the Ukrainian flag over a village he labeled as being in a southern region Kyiv has been targeting in a new counter-offensive.
"Vysokopillya. Kherson region. Ukraine. Today," Kyrylo Tymoshenko, deputy head of the president's office, wrote in a Facebook post over a photo of three soldiers on rooftops, one of them fixing a Ukrainian flag to a post.
The taking of the village would mark a tangible territorial gain in a counter-offensive that began last week and is targeting the south of the country.
A major focus of the new military effort is the Kherson region, which was seized by Russian forces early in the current conflict. Kherson is just north of the Crimean peninsula, which Moscow invaded and annexed in February and March 2014.

Former Chelsea and Everton midfielder Ross Barkley joins Nice as free agent
The 28-year-old had previously been linked to Southampton, Rangers and Celtic.
Ross Barkley has joined Nice just six days after leaving Chelsea by mutual consent.
The midfielder’s arrival was announced minutes before Nice’s contest with Monaco at the Allianz Riviera, where Barkley was introduced to his new side’s supporters before kick-off.
Barkley had previously been linked to Southampton, Rangers and Celtic before signing with the Ligue 1 side.
“A British blend of talent, technique and aggression topped off with character, the 28-year-old has decided to continue his career at Le Gym,” read a club statement.
“Though the summer transfer window closed last Thursday evening in France, he can join the Aiglons as he was out of contract. Welcome Ross!”
Barkley made 100 appearances for Chelsea in all competitions, scoring 12 goals.
Barkley’s best moment at the Blues came in his substitute appearance in the 4-1 Europa League final triumph over Arsenal in Baku in 2019.
A product of Everton’s academy, the Liverpudlian graduated to the first team in 2010 where he stayed, with the exception of loan spells to Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds, until signing with the Blues in 2018.
Chelsea agreed a deal to settle the remainder of the England midfielder’scontract, allowing the 28-year-old to leave Stamford Bridge as a free agent.Barkley made his Premier League debut aged 18, and was called up by England before his 20th birthday.
He has made 33 appearances for the Three Lions, including the 2014 World Cup and the 2019 Nations League, scoring six goals.
Wales international Aaron Ramsey, former Leicester goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel, ex-Manchester United, Everton and Southampton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin and on-loan trio Nicolas Pepe, Joe Bryan and Mads Bech Sorensen are others with Premier League experience who are also currently at Nice.

The collapse of the Terra (LUNA) ecosystem continues to ripple across the crypto industry. This cryptocurrency and its algorithmic stablecoin UST lost over 99% of its value in less than a week, leaving investors with billions in losses.
Related Reading | Elon Musk Has ‘Super Bad Feeling’ About The Economy – Terrible News For Crypto?
A report from Arcane Research estimates that Terra’s collapsed, now dubbed Terra Classic, resulted in over $6 billion in losses for retail investors. The report claims the ecosystem served as “perfect exit liquidity” for early LUNA, now dubbed LUNA Classic, investors.
As a consequence, many high-ranking government officials and regulators asked for stricter laws to “protect investors”. Per a report from Bloomberg, Japan is the first country to pass a bill around stablecoins.
Approved by the country’s parliament, the new bill categorized stablecoins as “digital money”. These assets must be pegged to Japan’s currency, the yen, or linked to another currency deemed legal tender by national laws.
In addition, the Japanese parliament ruled that stablecoins must “guarantee holders the right to redeem them (stablecoins) at face value”. As the report claims, stablecoins in Japan have become assets that “can only be issued by licensed banks, registered money transfer agents and trust companies”.
In the coming months, the implementation of the bill into law will be accompanied by new regulations and rules. These will be enforced by Japan’s Financial Services Agency, as Bloomberg stated.
Japan has strict regulations for cryptocurrencies and digital assets. The average Japanese investor can’t purchase a token available for a majority of the world, not even Tether (USDT), or USD Coin (USDC). The two most popular stablecoins.
However, the new bill could be the start of similar actions for other countries. The Terra Classic collapse seems the result of incompetence, an unsustainable model, and euphoria. The biggest winners are LUNC whales and those governments using it as an excuse to push for stricter regulations.
Big players in Japan have plans to leverage the introduction of a new legal framework to their benefit. As the report claims, the Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corp. has plans to issue a stablecoin.
Called Progmat Coin it could be the first stablecoin to be legally available in this country for all investors. As per the new bill, the Progmat Coin will be redeemable at face value and will allegedly be backed by the yen.
Terra Classic’s collapse might have set a precedent that could translate into more banks issuing their own digital money, and more governments asking for control. Ultimately, retail investors might be the most affected as regulators rushed to “protect them” by limiting their capacity to make decisions.

When I quit Test captaincy, only MS Dhoni called me: Virat Kohli on receiving support from cricketers
Dubai, Sep 5: Former India captain Virat Kohli has time again shown his respect and affection towards his predecessor Mahendra Singh Dhoni. The batting maestro has always credited MS Dhoni for backing him to the hilt and supporting him whenever he went through a lean patch.
The Delhi cricketer has revealed that his camaraderie with the legendary India captain still remains the same and that the former India wicketkeeper-batsman keeps supporting him.
While addressing the press conference after the Asia Cup 2022 Super 4 match against Pakistan which Team India lost by 5 wickets, Kohli opened up about the people whom he values for they keep supporting him unflinchingly.
The 34-year-old cricketer revealed that when he decided to quit as India Test skipper earlier this year in South Africa, it was only Dhoni - amongst the players, he has played with - who called him up.
Kohli said, "When I quit Test captaincy, the only player - with whom I have played - was MS Dhoni. A lot of people (former players) have my number and give opinions on national TV (as to what I should be doing and what not). But no one sent me a message. So, the moments like these prove if you have genuine respect and connection with someone because there is a sense of security on both ends. Neither does he want something from me, nor do I want anything from him. I personally believe that if you want to help someone, you would reach out to that person individually rather than speaking on the public dais.
"I live my life like this and it is the almighty who gives. Till the time I am worthy, I will keep playing like this," he further added.
In the match against Pakistan, Kohli was the top-scorer from the Indian side as he scored 60 off 44 balls and helped the side post a respectable total of 181/7 in the stipulated 20 overs. However, his second consecutive half-century in the ongoing tournament went in vain as Mohammad Rizwan (71) and Mohammad Nawaz (42) helped Pakistan secure a victory by 5 wickets with one ball to spare.
But with his fluent knock of 60, Kohli sent a strong message that he seems to have regained his lost touch which is a great sign for the team going forward. | https://www.mykhel.com/amphtml/cricket/when-i-quit-test-captaincy-ms-dhoni-was-the-only-cricketer-who-called-me-virat-kohli-197077.html | 2022-09-04T20:51:15Z | https://www.mykhel.com/amphtml/cricket/when-i-quit-test-captaincy-ms-dhoni-was-the-only-cricketer-who-called-me-virat-kohli-197077.html | true | 2 |

Emergency declared as flash flooding hits northwest Georgia
SUMMERVILLE, Ga. (AP) — Thunderstorms and heavy rain pounded parts of northwest Georgia on Sunday, sparking flash flooding in some areas. Local news reports showed roads under water and homeowners struggling to keep water out.
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp declared a state of emergency Sunday afternoon in Chattooga and Floyd Counties, directing all state resources to help with “preparation, response and recovery activities.” The National Weather Service said rainfall of up to one inch per hour was causing creeks, streams, roadways and urban areas to experience unusually high levels of water. Up to 12 inches of rain was estimated to have fallen in the area, according to Kemp’s executive order.
“This is an extremely dangerous and life-threatening situation. Do not attempt to travel unless you are fleeing an area subject to flooding or under an evacuation order,” the service said.
The service declared a “flash flood emergency” for Summerville, Lyerly and James H. Floyd State Park in Chattooga County. Floyd County — just to the south — was also under a flash flood warning.
At 3:10 p.m., the service advised locals to avoid non-emergency travel as another round of emergency rainfall entered the area.
The city of Summerville advised residents who use the city’s water utility services to boil water prior to drinking, cooking or preparing baby food due to flash flooding at the Raccoon Creek Filter plant.
“Water should be boiled for at least one minute after reaching a rolling boil. Citizens should continue to boil their water until they are notified by their drinking water utility that the water system has been restored to full operation, and that the microbiological quality of the water in the distribution system is safe for human consumption,” the city said on its website.

Michigan shooting: 3 dead, including child, in possible murder-suicide; 3 kids escape
PORTAGE, Mich. — A possible murder-suicide left three people, including a 6-year-old, dead in Michigan, authorities said.
According to WOOD-TV and WXMI-TV, the incident occurred shortly after 9 p.m. Tuesday at an apartment home on Milham Avenue in Portage. Portage police, SWAT officers and officials from other law enforcement agencies arrived at the scene after receiving reports of a shooting and possible hostages, the news outlets reported.
Authorities, who were met with silence when they tried to make contact with people inside the home, eventually went inside and found a dead man, woman and a child, according to the outlets. Officials said three children also escaped from the home at the time of the shooting, WOOD reported.
Police said the adults and children lived together, but their relationship wasn’t immediately clear, according to WOOD. Investigators have not released the victims’ names or said who was responsible for the deaths, the news outlets reported.

There’s a free Elden Ring comedy manga, and you can read the first two issues of it right now. That’s not a sentence I expected to type today, but there it is. Following FromSoftware’s incredible success story, with Elden Ring sales clocking it at a huge 16.6 million at the last official count from publisher Bandai Namco, it was inevitable that a variety of tie-ins and merchandise would follow. Now, you can read a humorous take on one of the best RPG games in recent memory, courtesy of a partnership with Comic Hu and writer Nikiichi Tobita.
Elden Ring: The Road to the Erdtree is a gag manga written by the artist of ‘A Cursed Sword’s Daily Life.’ FromSoftware’s parent company Kadokawa Corporation announces in a press release (via Famitsu) that the manga will be serialised through the free web magazine service Comic Hu from September 4, with the first two stories published simultaneously and more to be released over the coming weeks and months.
The series, which has been localised into 12 different languages including English, Traditional Chinese, and Japanese, follows the tale of Tarnished wretch Aseo, after he finds himself “cast out into Limgrave naked, penniless, hopeless, and maidenless.” The initial issue is rather appropriately titled, “You thought this’d be serious, didn’t you?” It begins much in the same way as the opening scenes of the videogame – only to abruptly land on an image of guide Melina standing over an almost-naked Aseo planking face-down on the floor, with bold text announcing “This is a comedy manga.”
It’s a rather bizarre occurrence – but, from what we’ve read so far, it seems to achieve what it sets out to do. It’s all rather silly, with Aseo immediately panicking upon encountering the world’s first NPC, Varré, and a rather ridiculous aside that shows the game’s first major boss Godrick the Grafted pondering over the trendiness of a selection of possible graftings presented to him by his underlings. There’s even some fourth-wall breaking, with a direct note at one point that reads, “Are the devs at FS okay with this?”
You can read the manga for yourself on the Comic Walker website – as mentioned, it’s free and available in English, but if you’re new to manga you’ll want to note that the pages are read from right to left. The next issue is scheduled to arrive on September 19, with more to follow down the line. It may not be the Elden Ring content I expected to see when I woke up this morning, but I have to say that it definitely put a smile on my face.
Recent developments saw additional FromSoftware shares purchased by Sony and Chinese publishing giant Tencent. Meanwhile, the latest Elden Ring update 1.06 overhauls the game’s co-op, ensuring its place as one of the best multiplayer games on PC this year. Be sure to take a look at our guide to the best Elden Ring builds and our helpful rundown of all the Elden Ring bosses you’re likely to encounter on your adventure – many of whom you can expect to see in The Road to the Erdtree as well. Let’s hope you fare a little better than Aseo’s initial attempts.

ROSIE GREEN: Your post summer body SOS
- Rosie Green shares her tips on repairing the summer damage of past months
- She advises products to replenish your hair and help soothe dried out skin
- Other beauty picks may help with sun damage on skin, and effects of tanning
For me, it's like a sartorial switch flips at the end of August. Suddenly I tire of bikinis, gold sandals and rosé. My tangle of gold bracelets, so charming in June, start to look a little, well, scruffy.
And the cravings kick in for sweaters, boots and crisp autumn air. The same goes for beauty. Those golden highlights, so fresh and flattering at the start of summer, now look fried.
The bronzed limbs I craved when I was ghostly pale in spring now look patchy, dry and dusty. The once-cute freckles present as sun damage.
And the formerly glowing peachy skin is now lacklustre, thanks to sun and sea, neglect and negronis.
If you too want to undo the damage and start afresh, Rosie Green advises that here's how to do it...
I'm seeing things in a different light (literally — the golden glow of summer changes as the earth tilts away from the sun) so I want the beauty equivalent of a back-to-school new beginning.
If you too want to undo the damage and start afresh, here's how to do it...
FACE FACTS
For a granular formula, Rosie likes Clarins Fresh Scrub (£26, clarins.co.uk, pictured).
Sun, sea and flying can dry out the skin.
Add in late nights and sugary cocktails and your glow fades fast.
Exfoliation is key to revealing radiant skin.
Why?
Because light bounces off a smooth surface.
A-list make-up artist Ruby Hammer, who at 60 is the owner of the most gleaming skin in the industry, says she switches between granular scrubs (which slough off dead skin cells) and liquid formulas (which dissolve the dead cells).
I find the former shifts flakes and the latter helps with dryness and luminosity.
For a granular formula, I like Clarins Fresh Scrub (£26, clarins.co.uk, pictured).
For a liquid, try Sali Hughes Placid 5 Acid Daily Exfoliant (£13.99, superdrug.com) or Willowberry's newly launched PHA Liquid Exfoliator (£28.99, willowberry.co.uk).
The latter is gentle enough to use on sensitive skins and offers a hit of hyaluronic acid to counter dehydration.
For pigmentation, Vitamin C serum is the gold standard.
SkinCeuticals Phloretin (£150, skinceuticals.co.uk) is my pick or try Dr Dennis Gross's Vitamin C Lactic Range — go for the 15 per cent Vitamin C Firm & Bright Serum (£86, spacenk.com).
REHAB YOUR HAIR
Salt water, chlorine, heat — your hair takes a hit over the summer so it needs some TLC. Ruby Hammer recommends a treatment or mask, her favourite being Philip Kingsley Elasticizer (£19.50, philipkingsley.co.uk).
It's a pre-shampoo potion loved by models, who comb it through on days off and leave it to work its magic. New on the scene is Living Proof Triple Bond Complex (£42, selfridges.com, pictured). Used on damp hair, it treats all levels of damage.
Meanwhile, celebrity colourist Nicola Clarke swears by Virtue Healing Oil (£42, selfridges.com). She mixes it with Virtue Restorative Treatment Mask (£65) to work wonders. The new product on the block is Sam McKnight's Deeper Love Intense Treatment Mask (£48, sam mcknight.com).
New on the scene is Living Proof Triple Bond Complex (£42, selfridges.com, pictured). Used on damp hair, it treats all levels of damage
On a tighter budget? Nicola suggests trying almond oil. Neal's Yard sells 100 ml for £12.50 (neals yardremedies.com). I also love the K18 treatment at Salon Sloane (£30, salonsloane.com), an intensely nourishing, smoothing and strengthening process.
Find your nearest salon at k18hair.co.uk or try its at-home treatment which starts at £9.
BODY TALK
Around now, skin starts rebelling against months of drying sun exposure and too much fake tan.
How to nurse it back to its best? It can be tempting to skip exfoliation because you want to hang onto summer colour, but that will come at the expense of dull, dusty skin. I love Dr Dennis Gross's Alpha Beta Exfoliating Body Treatment wipes (two for £15, spacenk.com).
Sweep all over and you will be rewarded with smooth, radiant limbs. Ruby Hammer plumps for oil-based body scrubs — Beauty Pie Soul Providers Re-Energizing Dry Oil Sugar Scrub (from £14.50, beautypie.com) and Elemis Frangipani Monoi Salt Glow (£45, uk.elemis.com) — which leave a sexy sheen.
Then go to town with the moisturiser — you can make a real difference with daily diligence. I love Ameliorate Transforming Body Lotion (£24, ameliorate.com) or Garnier Intensive 7 Days Shea Butter Body Lotion (£5.25, boots.com).
To really amp up the hydration, I add a layer of Environ EssentiA Body Oil (£42, facethe future.co.uk) before my lotion.
HELP AT HAND
Right now my hands look like they've aged on fast forward. Think sun spots, dryness and dehydration. My favourite salve is Seoulista Beauty Rosy Hands Instant Manicure (£7.99, feelunique.com), a sachet with a pair of moisture-infused gloves that use body heat to increase the ingredient penetration.
And for those nails you've shellac-ed all summer? Treat cuticles to a drop of CND Solar Oil Treatment (£6.95, lookfantastic.com), which penetrates the gel, every night before bed.
For feet that have spent months in sandals (and the consequent Parmesan heels), I love Footner Exfoliating Foot Mask Socks (£8.49, amazon.co.uk). Wear the booties for one 20-minute session and a few days later your dead skin will shed off to reveal fresh feet.

Today's Wordle Answer #443 - September 5, 2022 Solution And Hints
WordleBot rates today's Wordle answer a 4.3 out of 6 in terms of difficulty; that means it took most players that many guesses, on average, to solve the puzzle, so if you're struggling, you're not alone. To help you kick off the week with victory and preserve your streak, here are some tips and hints for solving today's puzzle. We always do a full reveal of the solution word in the second section, so you can skip on down if you want to. Also, here's the Wordle answer for September 4 if that's what you were looking for.
Today's word has only one vowel, "O," but it's repeated in two consecutive letter positions: the third and fourth. The first letter is "W," the last letter is "P," and the word rhymes with soup. The solution is both a noun and a verb, and it's an interjection you would make in celebration or enthusiasm; it also describes the "loud cry or call of an animal (such as an owl, whooping crane, or gibbon)," according to Merriam-Webster. Get it yet? We hope so. If you're still unsure, look below the next image for a reveal of the answer.
The answer also means to raise or boost
The solution to today's Wordle puzzle (#443 – September 5, 2022) is whoop. Apart from being a celebratory yelp, it could also be a hunter's call or a war cry. The word is also the name of the dry intake of air people characteristically get when they have whooping cough. More casually, whoop also means the minimum degree or the least bit, as in "not worth a whoop" or "he didn't give a whoop about which team won the match."
The solution whoop has roots in the Old French words "huper" or "houper," meaning to cry out or shout (via Etymonline). Today we chose the word train as our starter word, but it was an unlucky first guess because it left 728 possible solutions, which wasn't comforting since we only had five more attempts. Thankfully, our luck improved as we guessed the words cloud, shove, and chook next, which led us to the answer on the fifth guess. Whoop whoop! | https://www.slashgear.com/993604/todays-wordle-answer-443-september-5-2022-solution-and-hints/ | 2022-09-04T21:29:41Z | https://www.slashgear.com/993604/todays-wordle-answer-443-september-5-2022-solution-and-hints/ | false | 1 |
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Mario Cristobal ran through the smoke alongside the Miami Hurricanes as they entered the field, grabbed his headset and gave someone on the sideline a hug.
It was the first of many celebratory moments in Cristobal’s debut game as Miami’s coach.
Henry Parrish rushed for 108 yards and three touchdowns, Tyler Van Dyke passed for two more scores and No. 16 Miami started its season by topping Bethune-Cookman 70-13 on Saturday. Miami rushed for seven touchdowns on the day, piled up 582 yards of offense and turned three takeaways into touchdowns.
“The goal was to be 1-0 by 7:15 tonight,” Cristobal said. “And that was achieved. … We did what we had to do.”
Thaddeus Franklin rushed for two scores, while Devon Perry and Terrell Walden II also ran for touchdowns for the Hurricanes (1-0).
Gilbert Frierson had an interception return for a score, while Xavier Restrepo and Michael Redding III caught the TD passes from Van Dyke — who completed 13 of 16 passes for 193 yards. Jake Garcia completed all eight of his passes for the Hurricanes in relief.
“Amazing to start the season like that,” Frierson said.
For Bethune-Cookman (0-1), Que’Shawn Byrd caught a 34-yard touchdown pass from Jalon Jones.
“It gives us a measuring stick for our football team,” Bethune-Cookman coach Terry Sims said. “When you play a team the caliber of the University of Miami, you have no choice but to play at your best. Our guys, I thought went out and they fought.”
It was Cristobal’s 12th season-opener at Miami — he had five as a player, including his redshirt year, then three as a graduate assistant and three more as a full-fledged assistant.
But this was the first, of what Miami expects to be many, with him in charge of the operation.
“The energy was through the roof,” Restrepo said. “Coach Cristobal, he carries the entire team on his shoulders.”
There was much to like: Van Dyke’s passes were crisp, Parrish stepped up to lead an injury-depleted running back corps, Frierson had the return touchdown, Key’Shawn Smith had three kickoff returns for 184 yards — barely stepping out 17 yards from the end zone on what would have been a return score — and the Hurricanes blocked a field goal.
There also were things that will jump off the film and needs to be corrected, such as Bethune-Cookman getting seven plays of at least 20 yards, two of those being passes that wound up going for gains of 44 and 48. And a red-zone fumble also bothered Cristobal, though he blamed himself for the particulars that went wrong on that play.
“Overall, I thought we played relatively hard,” Cristobal said.
THE TAKEAWAY
Bethune-Cookman: All six games have ended up as easy Miami wins — average margin 42 points — but the Wildcats can feel good about this. They scored first in four of those six matchups, the latest entry on that list coming when they converted a third-and-23 on Saturday’s opening drive on the way to a field goal.
Miami: There were clearly not 56,795 people in the stands Saturday — Hard Rock Stadium holds about 65,000 for football — but that was the announced number of tickets distributed. It was the fourth-highest attendance figure for a Miami home opener since the Hurricanes moved into the Miami Dolphins’ stadium 15 years ago.
POLL IMPLICATIONS
Miami should remain ranked and probably won’t deviate far from the current No. 16 spot. It’ll be the 159th time (out of a possible 183) that the poll will include Miami during Cristobal’s years with the Hurricanes as a player, graduate assistant, assistant coach and now head coach.
FOR OPENERS
Miami improved to 65-32-1 all-time in openers, starting with the 1926 season when the Hurricanes fielded only a freshman team. But it’s only the second time in the last five years that Miami has started 1-0, after losses to LSU in 2018, Florida in 2019 and Alabama last year. The Hurricanes opened 2020 with a win over UAB.
UP NEXT
Bethune-Cookman: Host South Carolina State on Sept. 10. South Carolina State led the Wildcats 42-7 last year, but needed an onside kick recovery to seal a 42-35 win.
Miami: Host Southern Miss on Sept. 10, the first meeting between the schools. The Hurricanes will be seeking what would be just their seventh 2-0 start in the last 18 seasons.

BENNINGTON — Southwestern Vermont’s biggest event of the year went off without a hitch, as the neighborhood just south of Bennington’s “Four Corners” on Main Street was transformed into Garlic Town U.S.A. from Saturday morning into the early evening hours.
The Garlic Town website quipped that vampires were prohibited from the premises. But between the various garlic-infused products and sunshine that persisted all day, vampires were likely one of the few uninterested demographics. There was something for everyone else, as various vendors, food trucks and entertainers from the tri-state region converged on Bennington for the festival.
With over 100 vendors needing space to set up their tents, one site wasn’t enough to hold Garlic Town U.S.A. Instead, the celebration was split up into two separate pods, cleverly referred to as “cloves.” Clove A was tucked between Sunny Side Diner and Oldcastle Theatre, and Clove B was just down Depot Street across from the Bennington Firehouse.
Vendors in attendance ran the gamut from artisans and jewelers to wineries and distilleries. But make no mistake about it — the pungent guest of honor was a pervasive theme at many tents. Garlic candy, garlic beer, garlic bulbs, minced garlic, dried garlic — if you’ve seen “Forrest Gump,” just picture Bubba describing all the different ways you can use shrimp.
“We have two bars here, as well, both run by Ramunto’s. They’re doing garlic Bloody Marys and garlic margaritas. That may be one you taste once and never taste again, but at least you can say you’ve tasted it,” joked Matt Harrington, director of the Southwestern Vermont Chamber of Commerce.
Each clove was equipped with a stage. Those in attendance were regaled with the musical stylings of Bubba Lou Tugget, the Bennington Traditional Jazz Band, Moose Crossing, the Julie Shea Band, Whiskey City, and Beard and Glasses. Music was in the air all afternoon.
Musicians weren’t the only performers present, as Chef Cara Thatch demonstrated how to make garlic butter, garlic marinades and dressings, and garlic ice cream. Local wine expert Nancy Koziol offered garlic cocktail and mocktail recipes and other bartending tips.
Magician Doug Eash graced the stage at both cloves. There was plenty of other fun to be had for children, as well, with face painting, hair braiding, henna tattoos, and a Plushy Pals make-your-own stuff animal station. Captain America, the Little Mermaid, and Rapunzel from Bennington’s World of Wonder were present and fully in character, making the rounds to entertain the younger attendees.
Harrington estimated that attendance by the end of the day would be between 9,000 to 10,000 people. The Chamber moved the event last year from Camelot Village, where it had been held since 2009, to be a boon to Main Street businesses.
“Part of this is we absolutely want people to have fun … we’re hoping a lot of people here also make it downtown,” Harrington said. “Last year, we calculated that an extra $100,000 was spent in downtown in one day. So if we could do that, even better. That’s part of our mission as the Chamber of Commerce.”
Handling such an influx would not have been possible without the local residents in tie-dye t-shirts with “Stinkin’ Volunteer” written on their backs. Giving their time to assist with set-up and breakdown of the event, the rainbow-adorned army could be seen throughout the day tackling every other logistical task that might pop up in between.
Garlic Town U.S.A., formerly — and still colloquially — known as “Garlic Fest,” was purchased by the Chamber in 2008. It began in 1995 in Wilmington as a relatively small farmer’s market and grew to become recognized by Reuters as one of the top 10 garlic festivals in the world.
Attendance was as high as 16,000 for the two-day event prior to COVID-19 and the passing of Lindy Lynch, who was instrumental in running the festival for years. After a relatively quiet year in 2020 due to the pandemic, Harrington and event director Mikaela Lewis, with the help of their volunteers, have brought the event honoring the venerable vegetable back in full force. | https://www.reformer.com/news/a-stinkin-good-time-at-bennington-s-garlic-town-usa/article_b5dd4eb8-2c81-11ed-9135-ffbba3d26913.html | 2022-09-04T21:42:05Z | https://www.reformer.com/news/a-stinkin-good-time-at-bennington-s-garlic-town-usa/article_b5dd4eb8-2c81-11ed-9135-ffbba3d26913.html | false | 2 |

Wife claims hitting her cheating husband and his mistress with her car seconds after she saw them kissing was an 'accident'
When Christie Lee Kennedy saw her husband kissing another woman she felt her 'whole life had been torn apart'.
But the 37-year-old has denied deliberately driving into her cheating spouse and his mistress just seconds later.
Kennedy had been married to David Larkin for almost a decade when she discovered he was having an affair with Zowie Noring in March 2021.
The mother-of-two is accused of intentionally running over Mr Larkin and Ms Noring in her BMW SUV after discovering them together at Wavell Heights in Brisbane's north.
Kennedy also got out of her car, grabbed Ms Noring by the hair and repeatedly punched her while screaming obscenities, the District Court has heard.
Kennedy said her plan was simply to find out what her husband was doing when she discovered he was visiting a park she didn't recognise for the third time that week.
When Kennedy approached the park in her car she saw her husband 'kissing, groping and cuddling' Ms Noring.
'I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Basically my whole life had been torn apart,' a teary Kennedy told the court.
Kennedy said she abandoned her plan to 'hide and have a look' because she was quickly spotted by her husband and Ms Noring.
Instead she decided to accelerate down the street in a bid to 'catch him out'.
'Then (I) realised oh my God ... I remember hitting on the brakes, trying to stop (but) I already hit them,' she said.
'There was no way I intended to hit either one of them.'
Kennedy said she exited her car in a state of shock.
'I was shaking. I was about to collapse. I yelled something at her ... and I think I punched her a couple of times but I was that in shock, in disbelief and shaking,' she said.
'I was just not expecting to find what I did.'
Kennedy said she thought she had a perfect marriage before the incident.
But she first became suspicious when Mr Larkin began telling her he would leave work early for a childcare pick-up.
'That was really unusual for him because he would normally put in big hours,' Kennedy said.
When she rang to check if the children had been collected Mr Larkin's phone was either switched off or rang out, she said.
Concerned, Kennedy looked at a phone locator app and discovered Mr Larkin was at a park she had 'no idea about'.
'I mentioned to (a friend) ... that Dave was attending this park ... and she said 'that is near Zowie's work',' Kennedy said.
Her friend then told her Ms Noring had been talking to Mr Larkin on a messaging app.
'I said "anything going on between David and Zowie" ... and she said "oh no, I doubt it",' Kennedy said.
She said according to the phone locator app Mr Larkin visited the park twice in three days.
When it occurred a third time, Kennedy decided to drive to the location despite assurances from her husband the night before that 'everything was OK'.
She intended to go there, hide, have a look, then return to work and talk to her husband later that night about it, she said.
Kennedy has pleaded not guilty to two counts of malicious acts with intent to disable.
She has pleaded guilty to unlawful assault.

SEATTLE (AP) — Jackie Young sent the game in overtime with a buzzer-beating basket and then Chelsea Gray and Kelsey Plum hit big shots in the extra session to help the Las Vegas Aces beat the Seattle Storm 110-98 on Sunday to move within a victory of advancing to the WNBA Finals.
Las Vegas took a 2-1 lead in the best-of-five WNBA playoff semifinal series after some wild final moments of regulation and a dominant performance in overtime.
Gray had been quiet in the fourth quarter but scored eight of her 29 points in overtime including a pair of 3s that silenced Storm fans that had been roaring only a few minutes earlier when it appeared Seattle was on the cusp of winning the pivotal game.
Seattle led 92-90 with 0.8 seconds left in regulation after Sue Bird hit a corner 3. It was a storybook moment to be another highlight in Bird’s final season before retiring.
But on the ensuing inbound play, Young got free on a switch and scored in the lane ahead of the buzzer to send the game to overtime.

A’ja Wilson finished with a playoff career-high 34 points and 11 rebounds. Gray added 12 assists and Riquna Williams added a key 14 points off the bench. Plum had 16 points, including a key three-point play to start overtime for the Aces.
Breanna Stewart led Seattle with 20 points, while Bird and Jewell Loyd both had 17. Tina Charles added 16 points but missed a pair of free throw with 7.2 seconds remining in regulation that could have given Seattle a three-point lead.
Seattle trailed by as many as 15 in the first half, and now have to a way to rebound from an emotionally draining loss. The Aces victory also moved Bird one step closer to retirement. Bird has announced this will be her final season, and Las Vegas can send her off into retirement as one of the greatest players in league history with a victory in Game 4.
The second half was filled with wild emotional swings and a conclusion to regulation that featured big plays one after another.
Stewart had been held in check but scored on three straight possessions as the teams traded baskets for most of the final three minutes. Stewart’s driving finger roll with 55 seconds left gave Seattle an 87-85 lead.
Plum missed a 3-pointer on the net Las Vegas possession. Stewart missed a contested shot, but the rebound went to Seattle. Loyd was fouled and hit both free throws with 11 seconds left.
Williams hit a 3 with 8.9 seconds left for Las Vegas before Charles missed her foul shots. Wilson put Las Vegas ahead 90-89 with a spinning drive in the lane with 2.2 seconds left. Then it was Seattle’s turn to have an apparent on Bird’s 3. But that was muted moments later when Young scored.
TIP-INS
Seattle lost a home playoff game with Stewart healthy for the first time. The Storm were 10-0 previously. ... In the 14 previous series tied at 1-1, the winner of Game 3 has gone on to win the series eight times.
UP NEXT

Things are heating up in the “Big Brother” house. Earlier this week, two houseguests made a comment about trying to sway the jury against Michael Bruner if he makes it to finale night.
Here’s what you need you know:
Terrance Wants to Turn the Jury Against Michael
Last week, Kyle Capener was evicted after a drama-filled week. Kyle’s game began to crumble after Michael and Brittany Hoopes brought to light a conversation they had with Kyle that didn’t sit right with them. Michael and Brittany informed the houseguests that a few weeks ago, Kyle had alluded to forming an alliance with all the white players in the house. They said that Kyle’s reasoning for forming the alliance stemmed from a belief that the people of color in the house must be working together. Kyle’s theory ended up not being true. The people of color in the house never formed an alliance or vowed to protect each other in the game.
The conversation hurt many players who felt Kyle had made an unfair assumption. Kyle’s words caused the Leftovers alliance to fracture and left many players wondering if they could trust him. The drama didn’t just damage Kyle’s reputation. A few houseguests wondered why Michael and Brittany held onto that information for so long.
According to Showbiz Cheatsheet, Monte Taylor and Terrance Higgins discussed the drama on the 24/hour live feeds and suggested that Michael’s reasoning for informing the house about the conversation was a strategic move.
On the live feeds, the two admitted they didn’t like how Michael held onto the information and even suggested they would sway the jury to vote against Michael if he made it to finale night.
“If there is something that happens where [Michael] is still there and it’s not his final two, and it’s somebody else, people may consider everything and how it went down,” Monte said, Showbiz Cheatsheet reported.
“I promise you, if I’m in that mother f***ing jury house, I’m going to sway that s***,” Terrance replied. “This is the timetable. You draw your own conclusions as to why it came up right then and there. One thing that you did is going to come back and haunt the f*** out of you. I blame Kyle a thousand percent, but I don’t blame him by himself.”
According to Showbiz Cheatsheet, Monte brought up the Michael situation again later in the night.
“By some sort of miracle, when — and hopefully, I make it there — but if we can get it down to a point where [the final two] is not Michael and Brittany, if it’s Michael and anybody else, then at that point, the jury is going to have a lot to say about that decision. And about how they played the game, and what they told people,” Monte told Terrance.
How to Watch the Live Feeds

SUMMERVILLE, Ga. (AP) — Thunderstorms and heavy rain pounded parts of northwest Georgia on Sunday, sparking flash flooding in some areas. Local news reports showed roads under water and homeowners struggling to keep water out.
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp declared a state of emergency Sunday afternoon in Chattooga and Floyd Counties, directing all state resources to help with “preparation, response and recovery activities.” The National Weather Service said rainfall of up to one inch per hour was causing creeks, streams, roadways and urban areas to experience unusually high levels of water. Up to 12 inches of rain was estimated to have fallen in the area, according to Kemp’s executive order.
“This is an extremely dangerous and life-threatening situation. Do not attempt to travel unless you are fleeing an area subject to flooding or under an evacuation order,” the service said.
The service declared a “flash flood emergency” for Trion, Summerville, Lyerly and James H. Floyd State Park in Chattooga County. Holland in Chattooga County and Floyd County — just to the south — was also under a flash flood warning.
At 3:10 p.m., the service advised locals to avoid non-emergency travel as another round of emergency rainfall entered the area.
The city of Summerville advised residents who use the city’s water utility services to boil water prior to drinking, cooking or preparing baby food due to flash flooding at the Raccoon Creek Filter plant.
“Water should be boiled for at least one minute after reaching a rolling boil. Citizens should continue to boil their water until they are notified by their drinking water utility that the water system has been restored to full operation, and that the microbiological quality of the water in the distribution system is safe for human consumption,” the city said on its website. | https://www.mytwintiers.com/news-cat/national/ap-emergency-declared-as-flash-flooding-hits-northwest-georgia/ | 2022-09-04T22:19:10Z | https://www.mytwintiers.com/news-cat/national/ap-emergency-declared-as-flash-flooding-hits-northwest-georgia/ | false | 40 |
KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Energy problems plagued Ukraine and Europe as much of the Russian-occupied region that’s home to a largely crippled nuclear power plant was reported temporarily in blackout Sunday.
Only one of six reactors at the Zaporizhzhia facility was connected to the electricity grid, and Russia’s main pipeline carrying natural gas to Germany remained shut down.
The fighting in Ukraine and related disputes over pipelines lie behind the electricity and natural gas shortfalls that have worsened as Russia’s war in Ukraine, which began on Feb. 24, grinds on for a seventh month.
Both issues will take center stage this week. U.N. nuclear agency inspectors are scheduled to brief the Security Council on Tuesday about their inspection and safeguard visit to the Zaporizhzhia power plant. European Union energy ministers were slated to hold an emergency meeting Friday in Brussels to discuss the bloc’s electricity market, which European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has said “is no longer operating.”
Much of the Zaporizhzhia region, including the key city of Melitopol, lost power Sunday.
But electricity was gradually being restored, said Vladimir Rogov, the head of the Russia-installed local administration in Enerhodar, the city where the nuclear power plant is located. To the southwest, power was also out in several parts of the port city of Kherson, according to Russia’s Tass news agency. Rogov blamed the outages in both locations on damage to high-voltage power lines.
While Rogov said no new shelling of the area around the six-reactor Zaporizhzhia plant was reported Sunday, the effects of earlier strikes lingered.
The International Atomic Energy Agency said Saturday that the plant was disconnected from its last main external power line and one reactor was disconnected because of grid restrictions. Another reactor was still operating and producing electricity for cooling and other essential safety functions at the site, as well as externally for households, factories and others through a reserve power line, the IAEA said.
Russian forces have held the Zaporizhzhia facility, Europe’s largest nuclear plant, since early March, with its Ukrainian staff continuing to operate it.
IAEA Director-General Rafael Grossi said he will brief the U.N. Security Council on Tuesday on a mission he led to the plant last week. The 14-member delegation braved gunfire and artillery blasts to reach the plant last Thursday after months of negotiations to enable passage through the fighting’s front lines.
Without blaming either warring side, Grossi said his big concerns are the plant’s physical integrity, its power supply and the staff’s condition.
Europe’s energy picture remained clouded by the war in Ukraine.
Just hours before Russian energy company Gazprom was due to resume natural gas deliveries to Germany through a major pipeline after a three-day stoppage, it announced Friday that it couldn’t do so until oil leaks in turbines are fixed.
That is the latest development in a saga in which Gazprom has advanced technical problems as the reason for reducing gas flows through Nord Stream 1 — explanations that German officials have rejected as a cover for a political power play. Dismissing Gazprom’s latest rationale for the shutdown, Germany’s Siemens Energy — which manufactured turbines the pipeline uses —- said turbine leaks can be fixed while gas continues to flow through the pipeline.
Von der Leyen blamed Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war against Ukraine for Europe’s energy crisis. Before the EU energy ministers’ meeting this coming Friday, she said electricity and natural gas prices should be decoupled and that she supports a price cap on Russian pipeline gas exported to Europe.
Natural gas is one of the main fuels used in electricity generation, and is a major source of Russia’s income, along with oil exports.
On Ukraine’s battlefield, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in his nightly video address Sunday, without providing specifics, that his country’s forces had retaken control of two settlements in Ukraine’s south and one in the separatist eastern Donetsk region.
Russian shelling hit the southern Ukraine port city of Mykolaiv during the night, damaging a medical treatment facility, the city’s mayor said Sunday.
Mykolaiv and its surrounding region have been hit daily for weeks. On Saturday, a child was killed and five people were wounded in rocket attacks in the region, Gov. Vitaliy Kim said.
Mykolaiv Mayor Oleksandr Senkevych didn’t report injuries in the overnight attack, which he said also damaged residences. Mykolaiv, which is 30 kilometers (20 miles) upstream from the Black Sea on the Southern Bug River, is a significant port and shipbuilding center.
In Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city, Russian shelling late Saturday set a large wooden restaurant complex on fire, according to the region’s emergency service. One person was killed and two others were wounded in shelling in the region, Gov. Oleh Syniehubov said.
Pavlo Kyrylenko, governor of the eastern Donetsk region where Russian forces have been trying to take full control, said four people were killed in shelling on Saturday.

Once it has begun, nothing can stop it. Of course, we’re referring to the fall edition of Mercury retrograde, beginning on September 10 in Libra before progressing into Virgo on the 23rd, finally ending its backward lurch on October 2. Those with cardinal (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) and mutable (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces) rising signs will feel the brunt of this retrograde most profoundly. Much has been said about 2022 as the karmic crucible for the fixed sign girlies (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius). It’s not to say that they’ll have it particularly easy in September, but at least the other signs, for once, can experience the feeling of waking up in anesthesia.

Junior Scale Stenographer, Steno Typists aspirants demand re-evaluation
We, the aspirants for Junior Scale Stenographer and Steno Typist posts would like to bring to your notice that we have participated in the selection process for Junior Scale Stenographer and Steno Typist advertised by JKSSB vide Notification No 4, 5, 6, and 7 of 2020 and 1, 2, and 3 of 2021 and have appeared in the type test and thereafter in the shorthand test conducted by the board dated January 11, 2022. However, we are not satisfied with the result declared by the board on May 27, 2022, as there are several discrepancies in the list prepared by JKSSB wherein many of us who have attempted the shorthand test with 100 percent accuracy find our names missing from the shortlist issued by the board.
As soon as the list was published on the board website, many aspirants approached Chairman JKSSB regarding the discrepancies in the result declared and Chairman JKSSB assured them of re-evaluation. Many aspirants also filed online grievances, representations, and RTIs, but JKSSB turned deaf ear to all the pleas. We have been told that the result has been declared on merit but, we, the aspirants, demand re-checking of shorthand sheets and transcription test to provide justice to those who burnt their midnight oil to prepare for this exam. The board thereafter issued a notification on the official website that the transcription sheets of the candidates had been re-evaluated and declared no change in the previous shortlist issued by the board. The aspirants have also raised the issue that JKSSB advertised different posts of Junior Scale Stenographer and Steno-Typist under different grade pay and criteria but took same dictation test for both the posts which shows utter negligence on the part of the JKSSB. The result of the transcription test has not also been published separately for both the posts and the board issued another notification wherein it excluded some posts of Steno-Typist so that nobody can raise a finger at the selection process. That JKSSB has communicated to all the desirous candidates that the copy of transcription sheets cannot be provided to them or whosoever filed the RTI for the same which clearly indicates foul play. In view of the above-made submissions, the Honourable LG is requested to kindly order an in-depth inquiry into the entire selection process.

Aspirants decry delay in SKIMS interview
SKIMS had published an advertisement notification through print media vide Advertisement Notification No 3 of 2020 dated June 26, 2020, for different posts. The examination was held from October 28, 2020, to December 10, 2020. Then SKIMS, Soura, after the completion of one-year duration of the written test declared the result on September 4, 2021.
Now due to non-comprehensible reasons, for the last 9 months, they didn't issue the interview notification. We all aspirants are in a state of depression and frustration as some of us are about to cross the age bar. SKIMS administration is playing with our future. Every candidate has at least 10 times put the grievance on the LG’s Grievance portal but there has always been the same response from the LG office and SKIMS, Soura.
We have high hopes that the Honourable LG would look into the matter and resolve our grievance at the earliest. The lower court Srinagar has also ordered the SKIMS to release the final selection lists but no action has been taken. We request the LG-led administration to take notice of our situation.

‘Take action against Khushalsar encroachers’
A few days back, the de-weeding and cleaning of Khushalsar Wetland near Sazgaripora was done by an NGO under the supervision of Srinagar district administration. The inhabitants of surrounding areas of this wetland hailed this cleaning process. But, it is unfortunate that some people have encroached on some parts of the wetland. These people have constructed sheds and cultivated vegetables here on this grabbed portion of wetland.
We request the Honorable Deputy Commissioner Srinagar to look into the issue and take immediate action in this regard.
