BEIRUT (AP) — Dozens of Lebanese and Syrian migrants stranded for days on a sinking fishing boat in the Mediterranean Sea are urging European coast guards to save them, saying that two children have died.
The roughly 60 migrants told relatives and volunteer groups with a satellite phone that two young children have died, and that the group has been without food, water, and baby formula for the past three days. On board are Syrian refugees and Lebanese from its severely impoverished northern provinces trying to reach Italy for job opportunities. They left Lebanon off the coast of the northern city of Tripoli about 10 days ago.
“They’re trying to remove water leaking into the boat with buckets, that’s all they have,” the brother of one of the Syrian passengers told The Associated Press. He asked to not disclose their names for security reasons and because some of the migrants did not want to disclose the news to their families back home. “This is fishing boat is meant for five people, not 60.”
Lebanon has a population of 6 million, including 1 million Syrian refugees, and has been in the grip of a severe economic meltdown since late 2019 that has pulled over three-quarters of the population into poverty.
The migrants are reportedly stranded near the coasts of Malta and Italy. The authorities have not dispatched rescuers, according to families and activists in touch with the migrants. Lebanese parliamentarian Ashraf Rifi urged the Italian government, as well as the Lebanese Foreign Ministry and the Lebanese Embassy in Rome to take action.
According to families and Alarm Phone, an activist network that helps bring in rescuers to distressed migrants at sea, Malta has not yet authorized a rescue operation and has not given permission to a commercial cargo ship to rescue the stranded migrants.
Meanwhile, families fear the leaking boat could sink at any time.
“Whenever I call, you can hear the children screaming and crying in the background,” the relative said. “I don’t know why no governments have taken action to rescue them, is it because they’re poor people trying to make ends meet for their families?”
Once a country that received refugees, Lebanon has become a launching pad for dangerous migration by sea to Europe.
As the crisis deepened, more Lebanese, as well as Syrian and Palestinian refugees, set off to sea, with security agencies reporting foiled migration attempts almost weekly.
In April, a boat carrying dozens of Lebanese, Syrians and Palestinians trying to migrate by sea to Italy went down more than five kilometers (three miles) from the port of Tripoli, following a confrontation with the Lebanese navy. Dozens were killed in the incident.
The circumstances of the vessel’s sinking are disputed. Survivors say their boat was rammed by the Lebanese navy, while the military claims the migrants’ boat collided with a navy vessel while trying to get away.
The April sinking was the greatest migrant tragedy for Lebanon in recent years and put the government further on the defensive at a time when the country is in economic free fall and public trust in the state and its institutions is rapidly crumbling. | https://www.kget.com/news/world-news/ap-dozens-of-lebanese-and-syrian-migrants-trapped-at-sea/ | 2022-09-05T20:45:47Z | https://www.kget.com/news/world-news/ap-dozens-of-lebanese-and-syrian-migrants-trapped-at-sea/ | true | 24 |
Get ready to see a lot more fun and emotion in your documents because Google Docs has a new shortcut that makes it easier than ever to quickly access and add emojis.
Lately, Google has been busy adding various features and options to Docs, including the ability to react with an emoji back in April. However, now the company is full-on embracing the emoji, as you’ll be able to insert an emoji into text in a matter of seconds.
This new feature integrates into Google’s existing “insert” shortcut. When you start a new doc, you’ll see a popup saying “Type @ to insert,” but if you start typing too fast, it’ll disappear. This shortcut actually allows for all types of quick inserts, and now when you type something like @smile, it’ll populate a list of smiling emojis to use instead of words.
Alternatively, you can type “:” to quickly get a similar list. Basically, Google made it so all Docs users have to do is type “@:” or “:” to see a dropdown list of emojis. You can navigate the entire catalog and choose whatever you’d like.
So, if you don’t know precisely which emoji you’re looking for, just type “@:” or “:” for a list of them all. Or, if you do know, type “@smile,” and it’ll show a list of smiley emojis.
The new emoji shortcut has already started rolling out to Workspace and personal Google Accounts. That said, Google mentioned it could take upwards of 15 days for select users to see it. Then, a more general release will arrive on September 12th.

NEW YORK (AP) — Aaron Judge kept up his bruising pace and hit his major league-leading 54th home run, connecting for the third straight day and sending the New York Yankees over the Minnesota Twins 5-2 on Monday.
Judge has homered in five of his last seven games for the AL East leaders. He snapped a 2-2 tie in the sixth inning when he hit a 3-1 slider from Trevor Megill (3-2) into the second deck in left.
“It’s getting hard to put into words what he’s doing,” manager Aaron Boone said. “Just a special season he’s in the midst of.”
The All-Star slugger reached 54 homers in his 131st game. He is on pace to hit 65 homers, four more than Roger Maris’ AL record in 1961. Judge reached 54 homers in New York’s 135th game; Maris hit his 54th when he connected off Washington’s Tom Cheney in New York’s 139th game on Sept. 6, 1961.
“I’m paying close attention to it. How could you not?” Boone said, adding, “it’d be pretty amazing.”
Judge, who also doubled, has scored five of New York’s last eight runs. He hit solo homers in the final two games at Tampa Bay, scored on a sacrifice fly by rookie Oswaldo Cabrera on Sunday and scored on a single by Josh Donaldson in the first on Monday.
Judge’s latest drive came after Gary Sánchez hit a 473-foot, two-run homer into the left field bleachers off Jameson Taillon in the fifth that tied it at 2.
Sánchez tied the game by hitting a 1-0 sinker for his 14th homer since the Yankees traded him along with Gio Urshela to Minnesota for Donaldson, Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Ben Rortvedt on March 13.
After connecting, Sánchez watched the ball soar into the stands, dropped his bat and ran around the bases as some of his teammates pounded on the dugout rail.
Marwin Gonzalez also homered for the Yankees, ending a 0-for-29 skid with his first hit since July 6. Kiner-Falefa added his second homer this year in the seventh.
Greg Weissert (2-0) pitched 1 1/3 innings for his second career win. The Long Island native worked around an error in the sixth and was replaced by Wandy Peralta after walking two in the seventh.
Peralta quickly finished the seventh by getting Jose Miranda to hit into a double play, with Gonzalez making a nice scoop at first of Donaldson’s throw, and then fanned two in the eighth.
Clay Holmes pitched a 1-2-3 ninth for his 19th save.
Judge scored when he doubled and scored on Donaldson’s single off the base of the left field wall. Judge scored just before Donaldson was tagged out at second after appearing to think he had homered.
New York went up 2-0 when Gonzalez hit a slider into the right field seats in the third.
FOR STARTERS
Taillon allowed two runs and six hits in five innings. Three of those came in the fifth inning and he was aided by rookie RF Cabrera’s fourth career outfield assist when Miranda was thrown out trying to stretch his single in the fifth.
Minnesota’s Chris Archer allowed two runs and four hits in five innings and is winless in his last 10 starts.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Twins: RF Max Kepler (hip tightness) was a late scratch. He struck out as a pinch-hitter in the ninth. …RHP Sonny Gray (right hamstring tightness) will throw his bullpen session Tuesday and his next start is being pushed back to Thursday’s series finale in New York
Yankees: DH Giancarlo Stanton was lifted for a pinch-hitter in the eighth after fouling a ball off his left foot in the sixth. Stanton grimaced and was unable to put any weight on his left foot. Boone said he’s not sure whether Stanton will be available for Tuesday night’s game. … LF Andrew Benintendi will have surgery on Tuesday after breaking a bone in his right wrist during a swing Friday night. Boone said Benintendi, acquired from Kansas City in late July, could play again this season. “I think the possibility of him returning is still in play,” Boone said. … 1B Anthony Rizzo (lower back) is expected to resume baseball activities Wednesday. Rizzo was originally scheduled to resume baseball activities Monday but experienced headaches as a side effect from an epidural shot. … LHP Aroldis Chapman (leg infection) may throw a bullpen session this week. … OF Harrison Bader (right foot plantar fasciitis) hit in the cage and could begin a rehab stint next week.
UP NEXT
Minnesota RHP Joe Ryan (10-7, 3.88 ERA) opposes New York RHP Gerrit Cole (10-7, 3.28) on Tuesday. Cole allowed a career-high five homers in 2 1/3 innings June 9 in Minnesota.

NEW YORK – Nick Kyrgios sat in the Arthur Ashe Stadium locker room after ending Daniil Medvedev’s U.S. Open title defense and stay at No. 1 in the rankings and felt a mix of pride and relief.
Pride at the big-serving, solid-returning performance that resulted in a 7-6 (11), 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 victory over Medvedev on Sunday night, the latest in a series of career-altering results that carried Kyrgios to his first quarterfinal at Flushing Meadows on the heels of his run to his first Grand Slam final at Wimbledon.
Pride, he said, at lifting himself out of “some really tough situations, mentally” and “some really scary places” off the court, which he first revealed in February. Pride, he went on, at succceding in distancing himself from “feeling so depressed all the time, so feeling sorry for myself.”
And relief, Kyrgios explained as he fiddled with the gray Boston Celtics cap he was wearing to his post-match news conference, at being able to come through when the lights are the brightest and stakes the highest, “because there’s just so much pressure every time I go out on court, so much expectation, so much unpredictability of what I can do.”
The 23rd-seeded Kyrgios, a 27-year-old from Australia, never had managed to make it past the third round of the U.S. Open until now, going 0-4 at that stage in the past. He also never has managed to parlay his unquestioned skill into the terrific play with any semblance of the consistency he is displaying lately.
“I’m just glad I’m finally able to show New York my talent,” Kyrgios said after delivering 21 aces and employing his typical go-for-broke style against Medvedev. “I haven’t had too many great trips here.”
He reached his first Grand Slam semifinal, then first Grand Slam final, at the All England Club in July, before losing to Novak Djokovic in the title match. Then Kyrgios won his first ATP title in three years at Washington in August. He followed that up with a victory over Medvedev at a hard-court tournament in Montreal soon after. He leads the ATP Tour in match wins since June.
Medvedev likened the way Kyrgios played Sunday to the level regularly reached by Rafael Nadal, who owns 22 Grand Slam titles and plays his fourth-round match Monday against American Frances Tiafoe, and Djokovic, who has 21 majors but is not at the U.S. Open because he is not vaccinated against COVID-19 and so was not allowed to travel to the United States.
“Didn’t miss a lot. Didn’t really surprise me,” Medvedev said. “If he plays like this ’til end of the tournament, he has all the chances to win it.”
Wouldn’t that be something?
Kyrgios is still Kyrgios during the course of a match, and was again on this evening.
Unsure of the relevant rule, he lost a point by running around the net to hit a ball that was going to land way out, then celebrated what he thought was a terrific play by raising a finger to make an “I’m No. 1” gesture.
During his on-court interview, Kyrgios sheepishly told the crowd: “I still can’t believe the bonehead play I made over here. I thought it was legal. That’s going to be all over `SportsCenter,’ so I’m going to like an idiot.”
He yelled at his guest box. He argued with the chair umpire and drew a warning for cursing. He smacked a ball in anger that ricocheted off a blue wall behind a baseline, coming close to flying over and landing amid spectators.
Medvedev, meanwhile, had been playing well enough to win all nine sets he played in Week 1 and look ready to give himself a shot at becoming the first man to win consecutive trophies in New York since Roger Federer grabbed the last of his five in a row from 2004-08.
But the 26-year-old Russian said he was bothered by a sore throat and generally “felt a little bit sick,” which he attributed to too-powerful air conditioning in the U.S. that he finds “just crazy.”
Now Medvedev – whose victory over Djokovic in the 2021 U.S. Open final ended his bid for the first calendar-year Grand Slam in men’s tennis since 1969 – will relinquish the top ranking. Three players have a chance to replace him there: Nadal, Carlos Alcaraz and Casper Ruud.
“I feel like tonight was another message that rankings don’t matter,” said Kyrgios, who will meet No. 27 seed Karen Khachanov for a spot in the semifinals.
Kyrgios has said that had he won Wimbledon, he might not have shown up at the U.S. Open at all. If he managed to win a Grand Slam title, he figured, the motivation to earn one would dissipate.
Right before this tournament began, Kyrgios sat down with a small group of reporters and talked about missing home – his brother recently had a child; his mother was ill – and how much he can’t wait to return to Australia after months away. So his first-round match would be a “win-win,” he said: “If I win, it’s more money and another great result. If I lose, I get to go home.”
On Sunday night, Kyrgios was asked whether he still thought that way.
“Three more matches, potentially, then we never have to play tennis again,” came the reply.
And then Kyrgios smiled a wide smile. | https://sports.nbcsports.com/2022/09/05/kyrgios-beats-2021-champ-medvedev-discusses-mental-state/ | 2022-09-05T20:49:56Z | https://sports.nbcsports.com/2022/09/05/kyrgios-beats-2021-champ-medvedev-discusses-mental-state/ | false | 18 |

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Albert Pujols collected home run No. 695 in the eighth inning and Miles Mikolas tossed eight shutout innings to lead the St. Louis Cardinals to a 2-0 win over the Chicago Cubs on Sunday.
Pujols drilled the two-run, pinch-hit shot off reliever Brandon Hughes (2-2).
A probable future Hall of Famer, Pujols trails only Barry Bonds (762), Hank Aaron (755), Babe Ruth (714) and Alex Rodriguez (696) on the all-time home run list.
Pujols has seven pinch-hit homers in his career, including two this season. He has homered against 451 different pitchera, an all-time record.
The 42-year-old jumped on an 0-1 offering.
“It’s just pretty special to be able to do that,” Pujols said. “There’s some nights that you’re going to come through and some nights that you don’t. The nights that you do, you just enjoy it. And that’s what I’m going to enjoy tonight.”
Tommy Edman started the rally with a one-out double.
“I was 100% confident that he was going to find a way to drive me in,” Edman said. “As crazy as it is, we just expect that to happen now. He’s the best right-handed hitter of our generation.”
Pujols, in his last season, has found a way to come through in dramatic fashion all season long.
“There’s times in this game where you take a step back from being locked into the game and you get to be a fan for a minute, and experience it the way everyone else is,” St. Louis manager Oliver Marmol said. “That was one of them. You take it all in because what he’s doing is absolutely incredible.”
Pujols hit his 130th career home run on Sundays, the most of any day.
Chicago manager David Ross indicated that he would have walked Pujols if Hughes got behind in the count.
“You’ve got to trust your guys,” Ross said. “Wanted to attack Albert. He just left one over the middle.”
St. Louis has won four in a row, 18 of its last 20 home games and is a season-best 24 games over .500 at 79-55. It was the Cardinals’ eighth series sweep of the season.
Chicago has lost seven of eight.
Mikolas (11-10) gave up two hits. He struck out three and walked one. Ryan Helsley earned his 13th save in 17 chances.
Chicago starter Marcus Stroman allowed four hits in seven shutout innings. He struck out five and did not walk a batter in a 98-pitch stint.
The start of the game was delayed 1 hour, 28 minutes by rain.
HOMETOWN HERO
Boston Celtics standout Jayson Tatum, a St. Louis native, threw out the first pitch. Tatum played high school basketball at Chaminade College Prep, located 14 miles from Busch Stadium.
QUICK GETAWAY
The Cardinals have scored 91 runs in the first inning, second to the Los Angeles Dodgers with 95.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Cubs: C Willson Contreras missed the game with a sore left foot. He suffered the injury Tuesday against Toronto.
Cardinals: LHP Steven Matz will make a rehab start on Tuesday at Double-A Springfield. He has been out since Aug. 8 with a left knee sprain.
UP NEXT
Cubs: LHP Wade Miley (1-0, 2.84 ERA) will start on Tuesday as the Cubs begin a six-game homestand by hosting Cincinnati. Miley has been out since June 11 with a left shoulder strain. RHP Justin Dunn (1-2, 4.63) will start for the Reds.
Cardinals: RHP Jack Flaherty (0-0, 5.63) will face Washington RHP Anibal Sanchez (1-5, 5.05) in the first of a four-game series on Monday afternoon in St. Louis. Flaherty has been out since June 27 with a right shoulder strain. He made five rehab starts in the minors.

NEW YORK (AP) — Mets ace Max Scherzer said he was feeling fine Sunday, a day after he exited after a start after five innings because of fatigue on his left side.
The three-time Cy Young Award winner remained on schedule to start Friday night for NL East-leading New York at Miami.
Scherzer missed almost seven weeks earlier this season with a left oblique injury.
Of this fatigue, Scherzer offered a chuckle.
“It’s kind of like everywhere except the oblique,” he said before the Mets’ 7-1 loss to Washington.
Scherzer came out after 67 pitches Saturday against the Nationals. The 38-year-old righty allowed one run and three hits, striking out five and walking one. He got a no-decision in a game the Mets later lost 7-1.
Scherzer is 9-4 with a 2.26 ERA in 20 starts in his first season with the Mets. He has struck out 153 in 127 2/3 innings.

At least 46 people have been reported killed and 16 missing in a 6.8 magnitude earthquake that shook China’s southwestern province of Sichuan.
The quake triggered landslides and shook buildings in the provincial capital of Chengdu, whose 21 million residents are already under a COVID-19 lockdown.
It struck a mountainous area in Luding county shortly after noon on Monday, the China Earthquake Networks Center said.

Sichuan, which sits on the edge of the Tibetan Plateau where tectonic plates meet, is regularly hit by earthquakes. Two quakes in June killed at least four people.
The death toll rose to 46 with 16 missing as the search for trapped people continued Monday night, state broadcaster CCTV said.
Earlier, authorities had reported seven deaths in Luding county and 14 more in neighbouring Shimian county to the south. Three of the dead were workers at the Hailuogou Scenic Area, a glacier and forest nature reserve.
Along with the deaths, authorities reported stones and soil falling from mountainsides, causing damage to homes and power interruptions, CCTV said. One landslide blocked a rural highway, leaving it strewn with rocks, the Ministry of Emergency Management said.
Buildings shook in Chengdu, 200 kilometres away from the epicentre.
Resident Jiang Danli said she hid under a desk for five minutes in her 31st floor apartment. Many of her neighbours rushed downstairs, wary of aftershocks.
“There was a strong earthquake in June, but it wasn’t very scary. This time I was really scared, because I live on a high floor and the shaking made me dizzy,” she told The Associated Press.
The earthquake and lockdown follow a heat wave and drought that led to water shortages and power cuts due to Sichuan’s reliance on hydropower. That comes on top of the latest major lockdown under China’s strict “zero-COVID” policy.
The past two months in Chengdu “have been weird,” Jiang said.
The US Geological Survey recorded a magnitude of 6.6 for Monday’s quake at a relatively shallow depth of 10 kilometres. Preliminary measurements by different agencies often differ slightly.
China’s deadliest earthquake in recent years was a 7.9 magnitude quake in 2008 that killed nearly 90,000 people in Sichuan. The temblor devastated towns, schools and rural communities outside Chengdu, leading to a years-long effort to rebuild with more resistant materials.

Contribution to the field statement
When you submit your manuscript, you will be required to briefly summarize in 200 words your manuscript's contribution to, and position in, the existing literature in your field. This should be written avoiding any technical language or non-standard acronyms. The aim should be to convey the meaning and importance of this research to a non-expert. While Frontiers evaluates articles using objective criteria, rather than impact or novelty, your statement should frame the question(s) you have addressed in your work in the context of the current body of knowledge, providing evidence that the findings – whether positive or negative – contribute to progress in your research discipline. This will help the chief editors to determine whether your manuscript fits within the scope of a specialty as defined in its mission statement; a detailed statement will also facilitate the identification of the editors and reviewers most appropriate to evaluate your work, ultimately expediting your manuscript's initial consideration.
Example statement on: Markram K and Markram H (2010) The Intense World Theory – a unifying theory of the neurobiology of autism. Front. Hum. Neurosci. 4:224. doi: 10.3389/fnhum.2010.00224
Autism spectrum disorders are a group of neurodevelopmental disorders that affect up to 1 in 100 individuals. People with autism display an array of symptoms encompassing emotional processing, sociability, perception and memory, and present as uniquely as the individual. No theory has suggested a single underlying neuropathology to account for these diverse symptoms. The Intense World Theory, proposed here, describes a unifying pathology producing the wide spectrum of manifestations observed in autists. This theory focuses on the neocortex, fundamental for higher cognitive functions, and the limbic system, key for processing emotions and social signals. Drawing on discoveries in animal models and neuroimaging studies in individuals with autism, we propose how a combination of genetics, toxin exposure and/or environmental stress could produce hyper-reactivity and hyper-plasticity in the microcircuits involved with perception, attention, memory and emotionality. These hyper-functioning circuits will eventually come to dominate their neighbors, leading to hyper-sensitivity to incoming stimuli, over-specialization in tasks and a hyper-preference syndrome. We make the case that this theory of enhanced brain function in autism explains many of the varied past results and resolves conflicting findings and views and makes some testable experimental predictions.
Figure and table guidelines
CC-BY license
All figures, tables, and images will be published under a Creative Commons CC-BY license, and permission must be obtained for use of copyrighted material from other sources (including re-published/adapted/modified/partial figures and images from the internet). It is the responsibility of the authors to acquire the licenses, follow any citation instructions requested by third-party rights holders, and cover any supplementary charges.
For additional information, please see the 'Image manipulation' section of our polices and publication ethics.
Figure requirements and style guidelines
Frontiers requires figures to be submitted individually, in the same order as they are referred to in the manuscript; the figures will then be automatically embedded at the end of the submitted manuscript. Kindly ensure that each figure is mentioned in the text and in numerical order.
For figures with more than one panel, panels should be clearly indicated using labels (A), (B), (C), (D), etc. However, do not embed the part labels over any part of the image, these labels will be replaced during typesetting according to Frontiers' journal style. For graphs, there must be a self-explanatory label (including units) along each axis.
For LaTeX files, figures should be included in the provided PDF. In case of acceptance, our production office might require high-resolution files of the figures included in the manuscript in EPS, JPEG or TIF/TIFF format.
To upload more than one figure at a time, save the figures (labeled in order of appearance in the manuscript) in a zip file and upload them as 'Supplementary Material Presentation.'
Please note that figures not in accordance with the guidelines will cause substantial delay during the production process.
Captions
Captions should be preceded by the appropriate label, for example 'Figure 1.' Figure captions should be placed at the end of the manuscript. Figure panels are referred to by bold capital letters in brackets: (A), (B), (C), (D), etc.
Image size and resolution requirements
Figures should be prepared with the PDF layout in mind. Individual figures should not be longer than one page and with a width that corresponds to 1 column (85 mm) or 2 columns (180 mm).
All images must have a resolution of 300 dpi at final size. Check the resolution of your figure by enlarging it to 150%. If the image appears blurry, jagged, or has a stair-stepped effect, the resolution is too low.
The text should be legible and of high quality. The smallest visible text should be no less than eight points in height when viewed at actual size.
Solid lines should not be broken up. Any lines in the graphic should be no smaller than two points wide.
Please note that saving a figure directly as an image file (JPEG, TIF) can greatly affect the resolution of your image. To avoid this, one option is to export the file as PDF, then convert into TIFF or EPS using a graphics software.
Format and color image mode
The following formats are accepted: TIF/TIFF (.tif/.tiff), JPEG (.jpg), and EPS (.eps) (upon acceptance). Images must be submitted in the color mode RGB.
Chemical structures
Chemical structures should be prepared using ChemDraw or a similar program. If working with ChemDraw please use our ChemDraw template. If working with another program please follow the guidelines below.
Drawing settings: chain angle, 120° bond spacing, 18% width; fixed length, 14.4 pt; bold width, 2.0 pt; line width, 0.6 pt; margin width, 1.6 pt; hash spacing, 2.5 pt. Scale 100% Atom Label settings: font, Arial; size, 8 pt
Assign all chemical compounds a bold, Arabic numeral in the order in which the compounds are presented in the manuscript text.
Table requirements and style guidelines
Tables should be inserted at the end of the manuscript in an editable format. If you use a word processor, build your table in Word. If you use a LaTeX processor, build your table in LaTeX. An empty line should be left before and after the table.
Table captions must be placed immediately before the table. Captions should be preceded by the appropriate label, for example 'Table 1.' Please use only a single paragraph for the caption.
Kindly ensure that each table is mentioned in the text and in numerical order.
Please note that large tables covering several pages cannot be included in the final PDF for formatting reasons. These tables will be published as supplementary material.
Tables which are not according to the above guidelines will cause substantial delay during the production process.
Accessibility
Frontiers encourages authors to make the figures and visual elements of their articles accessible for the visually impaired. An effective use of color can help people with low visual acuity, or color blindness, understand all the content of an article.
These guidelines are easy to implement and are in accordance with the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1), the standard for web accessibility best practices.
Ensure sufficient contrast between text and its background People who have low visual acuity or color blindness could find it difficult to read text with low contrast background color. Try using colors that provide maximum contrast.
WC3 recommends the following contrast ratio levels:
Level AA, contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1
Level AAA, contrast ratio of at least 7:1
You can verify the contrast ratio of your palette with these online ratio checkers:
Avoid using red or green indicators More than 99% of color-blind people have a red-green color vision deficiency.
Avoid using only color to communicate information Elements with complex information like charts and graphs can be hard to read when only color is used to distinguish the data. Try to use other visual aspects to communicate information, such as shape, labels, and size. Incorporating patterns into the shape fills also make differences clearer; for an example please see below:
Supplementary material
Data that are not of primary importance to the text, or which cannot be included in the article because they are too large or the current format does not permit it (such as videos, raw data traces, PowerPoint presentations, etc.), can be uploaded as supplementary material during the submission procedure and will be displayed along with the published article. All supplementary files are deposited to Figshare for permanent storage and receive a DOI.
Supplementary material is not typeset, so please ensure that all information is clearly presented without tracked changes/highlighted text/line numbers, and the appropriate caption is included in the file. To avoid discrepancies between the published article and the supplementary material, please do not add the title, author list, affiliations or correspondence in the supplementary files.
The supplementary material can be uploaded as:
data sheet (Word, Excel, CSV, CDX, FASTA, PDF or Zip files)
presentation (PowerPoint, PDF or Zip files)
image (CDX, EPS, JPEG, PDF, PNG or TIF/TIFF),
table (Word, Excel, CSV or PDF)

Marvel fans got spoiled with an unbelievable amount of announcements during San Diego Comic-Con — but which was the biggest of them all? One might think that award would go to Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars. However, as exciting as those two movies may be, it’s another hero who surprised the world even more: Daredevil.
Charlie Cox’s lead hero was announced to be returning for a new Disney+ series titled Daredevil: Born Again, which is set to hit the service at some point in 2024 within Phase 5. The kicker? The show is set to be eighteen episodes long, easily a record for any MCU Disney+ show to date.
While that project may feel like an eternity away, fans at least have his She-Hulk: Attorney at Law appearance to look forward to. To help with the wait, Marvel has released an article summing up some of the heroes’ best OG moments in the comics—one which may also help provide hints at what his future time in the MCU will look like.
Daredevil’s Best OG Moments
In an article promoting how Daredevil’s first series is all on Marvel Unlimited, Marvel has listed ten of his most notable moments ahead of his re-introduction into the Marvel Cinematic Universe thanks to She-Hulk: Attorney at Law.
Daredevil’s First Appearance
When it comes to the best OG moments for any hero, it’s hard not to choose their first appearance—however, in this case, Marvel recommends the first six installments. Not only does it see Matt Murdock in his red and yellow suit, but he goes up against Electro, Killgrave, and the Owl.
West Coast, here he Comes
In issue #86 of Daredevil, the titular character moves to California, alongside Black Widow, with Natasha Romanoff and Matt Murdock remaining in a close relationship for roughly 31 issues. While the MCU will likely see the hero meet She-Hulk in Los Angeles, sadly, Black Widow is currently still out of the picture.
Bullseye Takes Aim
Issues #131, #132, #141-#147, and #159-#161 see Daredevil go up against his arch nemesis, Bullseye. The character was set up in Season 3 of his Netflix outing, but it’s unclear when he might return to torture Matt Murdock in the MCU.
Daredevil and Elektra, Sitting in a Tree
Issues #168 saw the introduction of Elektra Natchios, a former love interest of Matt Murdock’s. The story eventually arrives at Kingpin’s doorstep, as he is set up as a consistent threat for Daredevil to deal with—something that has clearly carried over from the comics.
Born Again
The iconic comic event on which the upcoming Phase 5 Disney+ series is based, which ran from issue #227 to #233, saw Kingpin learn Matt Murdock’s identity. Of course, with this information, the big bad tried his absolute hardest to destroy everything the hero cared about—including his own life.
Multiple Personality Struggles
Starting with issue #254, Daredevil runs into a new villain: Typhoid Mary. Much like Moon Knight, she has Dissociative Identity Disorder—though, here, she lands more on the villain side. There was the innocent “Mary” personality, the “Typhoid” assassin one, and the even deadly “Bloody Mary” side of her.
Everybody Wants Mephisto
Mephisto is a long-desired MCU baddie, yet he still has not been seen from Marvel Studios to this day. The Man Without Fear, however, ran into him as early as issue #265. It even gets so bad that Matt Murdock is only able to escape Mephisto’s realm with the help of the Silver Surfer.
Daredevil Wins
The story titled Last Rites, which ran from issues #297 to #300, saw Matt Murdock finally triumph over Wilson Fisk. Getting his revenge on Kingpin was as satisfying as it seemed it would be and left the villain without power for the first time in a very long time.
Elektra Returns
In issues #319 through #325, Elektra returned in a storyline called Fall from Grace. Not only does she come back into the picture, but Daredevil is also dealing with a doppelgänger called Hellspawn and an offshoot of The Hand calling themselves Snakeroot.
Agent of SHIELD
For the Flying Blind storyline, running issues #376 to #379, Matt Murdock spends some time undercover as an Agent of SHIELD. The problem? He’s so deep in cover that he doesn’t remember his own identity or why he’s there—and he goes by the name of Laurent Levasseur.
A Glimpse of What’s to Come
With She-Hulk currently airing, It is a little strange not to see Marvel promote any specific moments with Jennifer Walters. Though, they do make sure to include his yellow and red suit, which is what the character will wear when he hits Disney+ in the coming weeks.
Looking past She-Hulk, however, this list may provide a glimpse into what Born Again will contain. There will certainly be plenty of Kingpin, but what are the odds that Bulleye will also make a return? Or Elektra? Given how big their contributions are to Matt’s story, it only makes sense.
But what of Typhoid Mary? Her inclusion in the list seems pretty important, as she’s one of a small group of villains that get the spotlight. Could she be next in line to go up against Matt Murdock?
If she does, the writers have a lot of work ahead of them to not only differentiate her from someone such as Moon Knight but also in avoiding harmful stereotypes surrounding Dissociative Identity Disorder.
All of that said, those potential futures are a ways off. Until then, fans can look forward to the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen (probably) paying a visit to Los Angeles.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is now streaming on Disney+, with new episodes dropping every Thursday. | https://thedirect.com/article/daredevil-she-hulk-marvel-appearances | 2022-09-05T21:10:51Z | https://thedirect.com/article/daredevil-she-hulk-marvel-appearances | true | 1 |
IOWA CITY — It was a win.
It was also the first game of the season. Head coach Kirk Ferentz is willing to chalk it up to that.
The Iowa Hawkeyes opened the 2022 football season on Saturday earning a 7-3 win over South Dakota State. Neither team reached 200 yards of total offense nor crossed the goal line in a game that featured two field goals and a pair of safeties, harkening back to Iowa's 6-4 win at Penn State in 2004, the fewest numbers of points scored by a Big Ten team in a win.
"There were a lot of things going on that we need to get better and get better at fast," Ferentz said. "The noise on the outside is probably a lot louder than it is on the inside. We'll be better next week."
Defense and special teams would ultimately lead Iowa in a game defined by field position. South Dakota State found themselves pinned inside their own 20-yard line seven times by Hawkeye punter Tory Taylor, who was called on to punt 10 times during the contest.
Taylor averaged 47.9 yards per punt, downing the ball inside the Jackrabbit 10-yard line five times. South Dakota State never got over midfield with the exception of their only scoring drive set up by an interception late in the first half that set up the Jackrabbits in Iowa territory.
"I just broke a personal record for punts in a game. That's probably not the best thing," Taylor joked on Saturday. "I'm a pretty relaxed guy. I just try to catch it and kick it as high as I can."
Taylor helped set up two safeties by the Hawkeye defense in the second half, hitting a 49-yard punt that was downed on the SDSU 1. On the first play after the punt, Isaiah Davis was tackled in the end zone by Jack Campbell giving Iowa a 5-3 lead with 4:03 left in the third quarter.
"I'm really lucky that there are guys on the punt unit that want to be on the punt unit," Taylor said. "Guys that run down there to either make tackles or call the fair catch, make sure the ball stays out of the end zone. We've got tremendous athletes on the special teams."
Iowa (1-0) appeared on the verge of finally breaking through offensively after the go-ahead safety. Arland Bruce IV hauled in a 27-yard pass from Spencer Petras, drawing a targeting penalty on the same play, before gaining 11 yards on a rush setting up the Hawkeyes on the SDSU 11-yard-line in the final minute of the third quarter.
"It's a lot different being out there for a game than it is in practice, so I'm glad I that game experience. I'm glad I got return kicks and got that work in," Bruce said. "Everyone is going to struggle at times. It's just a matter of everyone doing their jobs. There's some opening-week jitters you have to work through. It's just a matter of what we need to do first and not worry about what the defense is doing."
Iowa's most promising drive of the game ended with more frustration as Leshon Williams fumbled at the Jackrabbit 7-yard-line. South Dakota State, the third-ranked team in FCS, never got beyond their own 30-yard-line in the fourth quarter as another punt by Taylor downed inside the 10 led to Iowa's second safety as Joe Evans sacked SDSU quarterback Mark Gronowski in the end zone with 4:04 left, giving Iowa a four-point lead.
South Dakota State (0-1) got one last chance to drive for a potential game-winning touchdown, taking over possession with 36 seconds left at their own 20. Gronowski completed just one of four pass attempts on the final drive with a throw intended for Canyon Bauer being broken up by Terry Roberts with 15 seconds left to clinch the season-opening Hawkeye win.
"Defense was critical. Between that and the kicking game, they (the Iowa defense) took the field in really good position throughout the game," Ferentz said. "They did their job. They did what they had to do. They kept (South Dakota State) pinned up and forced to play a long field. There were a lot of really good efforts from a lot of people in all areas. That was good to see."
While the defense and special teams thrived, Iowa's offense struggled mightily in the season opener gaining just 166 total yards. The Hawkeyes netted just 57 yards rushing on the ground on 36 carries, averaging just 1.6 yards per rush, while Petras was booed off the field at the end of the first half after his interception set up a 44-yard field goal by Hunter Dustman that left the Hawkeyes and Jackrabbits tied at 3-3 at halftime.
"We need to grow offensively and I think we will," Petras said after completing just 11 of 25 pass attempts for 109 yards on Saturday. "I was focused on the next play and trying to get us going. A lot of our bad plays, we were one guy away from going and getting what we needed."
Oskaloosa native Aaron Blom scored the first points of the season for the Hawkeyes, hitting a 46-yard-field goal in the first quarter shaking off a 40-yard miss earlier in the game. Iowa hosts Iowa State next Saturday at Kinnick Stadium in the annual 'Cy-Hawk' contest starting at 3 p.m. Both teams will be looking for 2-0 starts.
"It was our first game. We got our first win," Petras said. "Let's get back to who we are." | https://www.ottumwacourier.com/sports/college-football-safeties-lift-hawkeyes-in-season-opener/article_2006ec0e-19e5-11ed-9810-c3396bcab0b4.html | 2022-09-05T21:12:25Z | https://www.ottumwacourier.com/sports/college-football-safeties-lift-hawkeyes-in-season-opener/article_2006ec0e-19e5-11ed-9810-c3396bcab0b4.html | false | 1 |

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Police released surveillance images Monday of a possible suspect in the fatal stabbing of a Las Vegas newspaper’s investigative reporter, although the images don’t show the person’s full face.
The images distributed Monday by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department show a person wearing a wide straw hat, bright orange reflective long-sleeve shirt, blue jeans, gray shoes and carrying a black or dark blue shoulder bag.
Police are asking for the public’s help finding any additional surveillance footage as they continue to search for a suspect in the killing of Las Vegas Review-Journal reporter Jeff German.
German, 69, was found stabbed to death outside his home around 10:30 a.m. Saturday after authorities received a 911 call.
German died of “multiple sharp force injuries” in a homicide, the Clark County Office of the Coroner/Medical Examiner said Sunday.
It appears German was in an altercation with another person that led to the stabbing, according to police.
Police believe the suspect was casing the neighborhood to commit other crimes when German was killed.
“We take this case very seriously and our investigators have been working non-stop to identify and apprehend the suspect,” Capt. Dori Koren, a police spokesperson, said in a statement.
Glenn Cook, the Review-Journal’s executive editor, said German had not communicated any concerns about his personal safety or any threats made against him to anyone in the newspaper’s leadership.
German joined the Review-Journal in 2010 after more than two decades at the Las Vegas Sun, where he was a columnist and reporter who covered courts, politics, labor, government and organized crime.
He was known for his stories about government malfeasance and political scandals and coverage of the 2017 mass shooting at a Las Vegas music festival that killed 60 people and wounded more than 400 others.
According to the Review-Journal, German held a master’s degree from Marquette University and was the author of the 2001 true-crime book “Murder in Sin City: The Death of a Las Vegas Casino Boss,” the story of the death of Ted Binion, heir to the Horseshoe Club fortune. | https://www.mysanantonio.com/news/article/Vegas-police-Images-of-possible-suspect-in-17420688.php | 2022-09-05T21:20:05Z | https://www.mysanantonio.com/news/article/Vegas-police-Images-of-possible-suspect-in-17420688.php | true | 25 |
DELTONA, Fla. (WFLA) — A Florida man was arrested Saturday after a father reported he repeatedly catcalled his daughter and harassed neighbors over a period of several months.
According to a post on the Volusia Sheriff’s Office Facebook page, Mark Greenburg, 55, was arrested in Deltona on a warrant for aggravated stalking. Deputies sought the warrant after the girl’s father claimed Greenburg walked to his driveway and made several inappropriate comments toward the girl as she played outside.
Deputies said the alleged comments included “words to the effect of ‘I’m going to make you famous’ and ‘I’m going to turn you into a woman’ or a ‘big girl.'” Several witnesses reportedly corroborated the story, with some claiming Greenburg said he was “going to pick her up and take her to Disney World.”
“The arrest followed a series of complaints from close to a dozen witnesses who have reported his behavior, including at least 11 incidents reported to the Sheriff’s Office over the past 8 months,” the sheriff’s office wrote. They said these alleged incidents include Greenburg yelling at his neighbors with a megaphone and filming their children playing outside.
The father reportedly told deputies that the alleged harassment was getting progressively worse and his daughter is now afraid to go outside. The family said they suspect Greenburg followed the girl to her grandmother’s house, where he allegedly parked outside twice in two days and took photos.
Deputies said they attempted to contact Greenburg on Friday, but he refused. They then obtained a warrant for his arrest. Greenburg faces charges of aggravated stalking of a person under 16. | https://www.wsav.com/crime-safety/im-going-to-turn-you-into-a-woman-florida-man-55-accused-of-stalking-6-year-old-girl/ | 2022-09-05T21:21:47Z | https://www.wsav.com/crime-safety/im-going-to-turn-you-into-a-woman-florida-man-55-accused-of-stalking-6-year-old-girl/ | false | 15 |
The Ghanaian champion took an indestructible step with victory over domestic rival Craig ‘Spider’ Richards in London on Saturday, 21 May, 2022, which could see him become the leading contender for the WBA light-heavyweight world title.
Bivol, Yarde, Smith or Pascal? - Joshua Buatsi nears world title shot
Long identified as one of the UK’s brightest boxing prospects, Ghanaian born, 2016 Olympic Bronze medalist and British IBF light-heavyweight boxer Joshua ‘Just Business’ Buatsi continuously moves up in the standings getting closer to his world title shot, sooner than we think.
Recommended articles
Over the recent months there has been much speculation on who Buatsi, 29, should fight next. With a striking record of (16-0, 13 KOs) Joshua has the pedigree to challenge the very best. His reputation as a nice guy precedes him, but in the ring, his clinical ferocity is relentless.
Recently, it has been announced that Hall Of Fame promoter Lou DiBella secured the rights to the Buatsi-Pascal IBF Light heavyweight title eliminator, surmounting promotional adversary Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing.
Who has in the past successfully promoted all of Buatsi’s fights, most recently against Craig Richards & Ričards Bolotņiks.
Despite the ongoing discussions of finalizing a date, platform and location for the Buatsi-Pascal fight. Joshua has already headed to the United States Of America to train with renowned boxing coach Virgil Hunter for the next couple of months till his official announcement.
Hunter, who was also responsible for leading former two-weight world champion Andre Ward to an unbeaten career and Amir Khan to world titles. Buatsi describes having Hunter in his corner as ‘a big plus.”
Joshua Buatsi dreams of taking world title fights to his homeland Ghana in the prospective future, but for now he is focused on the most important test of his career, the forthcoming world title shot.

Per the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) report, hospital bed occupancy rates offer complementary information for hospital capacity assessments. in 2019, the bed occupancy rate was ~85% in OECD countries, including Canada, Israel, Ireland, and Costa Rica. However, occupancy rates were comparatively lower in the US, accounting for less than 65%. High occupancy rates of curative (acute) care beds indicate healthcare systems are under pressure. A PETERSON-KFF Health System Tracker report states that the US has fewer acute care hospital beds per capita than Canada and Sweden. For example, the number of hospital beds per 1,000 population in the US decreased from 3.0 in 2000 to 2.5 in 2017. Moreover, the average of comparable countries (Canada and Sweden) declined from 5.4 to 4.2 beds per 1,000 population. This is mainly due to the few hospitals and higher rates of hospital consolidation associated with elevated prices, which are not accompanied by improvements in care quality. In September 2021, Baxter's deal with Hill-Rom intended for smart hospital beds swells to US$ 10.5 billion. The resulting company had a combined pro forma revenue of US$ 14.6 billion in 2020, drawn from Hill Rom's medical devices and equipment ranging from smart hospital beds to vital signs monitors, as well as Baxter's offerings in renal care, medication delivery, and advanced surgery. Thus, such strategic developments by companies support the hospital bed market growth.
Rising Prevalence of Chronic Diseases Positively Influence Overall Market:
According to the National Health Council report, ~40 million Americans face constraints in their routine activities as they suffer from one or more chronic health conditions. Incurable chronic diseases affect ~133 million Americans, representing more than 40% of the total population as per the published report in 2019. Many live with one or more chronic illnesses, such as diabetes, heart disease, or depression, but with two or more conditions. Such a high prevalence of chronic diseases may result in a more significant requirement for hospitalization, which drives the demand for hospital beds. According to the estimates presented in a Department of Health & Children report, ~80% of the general practitioners' (GP) consultations and 60% of hospital bed requirements are related to chronic disease cases with associated complications. As per a report by the Data and Digital Health Unit, acute care hospital beds are available for curative care, accounting for 100,000 beds per population in Europe. Patients are accommodated on these beds for managing labor (obstetrics), curing nonmental illness or providing definitive treatments to injuries, performing surgeries, and relieving symptoms of nonmental illnesses, among others. ~75% of the US healthcare expenditure is allocated to managing chronic diseases annually. According to estimates provided in the Department of Health & Children report, ~8 of the top 11 causes of hospitalizations in the UK are associated with chronic diseases, and 5% of the inpatients are aligned with long-term conditions, occupying ~42% of hospital beds.

Diabetes and heart diseases, among other chronic conditions, are the leading causes of death and disability in the US. For example, in 2019, obesity and high blood pressure were the most common chronic conditions in California, which affected more than one in four adults in the state. Moreover, hospital admission rates were high among people suffering from chronic conditions, accounting for 700 hospitalizations per 100,000 people in California. Thus, the growing prevalence of chronic conditions favors the overall growth of the hospital bed market.

The COVID-19 pandemic has favored the growth of the hospital bed markets. The pandemic had profound humanitarian, economic, and political consequences. With an increase in the incidence of COVID-19, local public healthcare systems redirected their focus on the expansion of their capacities to serve the population. Under these circumstances, the Board of Directors of American Friends of Jewish Hospitals and Education Centers of Brazil launched a fundraising campaign to support the donation program of Sociedade Beneficente Israelita Brasileira Albert Einstein (SBIBAE), with efforts focused on the fight against COVID-19 on several fronts. The funds raised in this program are used to create new ICU beds in public healthcare system (SUS) hospitals. Further, researchers at the University of São Paulo Faculty of Medicine Clinics Hospital (USPFMCH) developed the Elipse E3 platform based on Elipse Software, in which emergency beds were monitored remotely. To communicate between the software and the monitored devices, the technology companies involved in the project developed international drivers for the equipment in a hospital bed with proprietary protocols. In addition, the construction of several new hospitals triggered the development of new hospital beds. In 2020, the new Hospital Solidario COVID Austral, located on the Universidad Austral campus, was inaugurated for treating critically ill COVID-19 patients. Its 20 intensive care beds and 40 beds for intermediate care reinforced the 185-bed capacity of the Pilar public health system.

NEW YORK (AP) — The Latest on the U.S. Open tennis tournament (all times local):
___
4:35 p.m.
No. 1 seed Iga Swiatek survived a slow start to knock off unseeded Jule Niemeier 2-6, 6-4, 6-0 to reach the quarterfinals at the U.S. Open for the first time.
Swiatek, a two-time French Open champion, will play Jessica Pegula next. Pegula eliminated two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova 6-3, 6-2 to get to her third major quarterfinal of 2022.
Swiatek came into the U.S. Open just 4-4 in her last eight matches after winning 37 straight, but she hadn’t lost a set at Flushing Meadows until Monday. Niemeier got the early jump — as she exhorted the crowd to get louder — and gamely tried for another Grand Slam upset. She knocked out No. 2 seed Anett Kontaveit in Wimbledon.
Swiatek steadied herself in the second set and hit 10 winners, and she turned the third set into a rout. Swiatek became the first Polish woman to reach the quarterfinals at the U.S. Open and is trying to become the first top-seeded woman to win it since Serena Williams in 2014.
___
2:15 p.m.
Jessica Pegula eliminated two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova 6-3, 6-2 to get to her third major quarterfinal of 2022 and reach that round for the first time at Flushing Meadows.
Play was held up for about 45 minutes at 1-1 in the first set while rain fell. There is a retractable roof at Arthur Ashe Stadium, but it wasn't closed until after a downpour soaked the court.
The U.S. Tennis Association said in a statement that its “weather team” told U.S. Open organizers there was no rain expected. The statement added: “Unfortunately, a pop-up sunshower occurred.”
The No. 8-seeded Pegula is the highest-ranked American woman and the only player in the top 10 in both singles and doubles.
She reeled off the last three games of Monday's opening set, which ended with a double-fault by No. 21 Kvitova, and then the last six games of the fourth-round match after trailing 2-0 in the second set.
Pegula is a 28-year-old who was born in New York. Her parents own the NFL's Buffalo Bills and NHL's Buffalo Sabres.
She is 0-3 in Grand Slam quarterfinals so far, including losses at that stage at the Australian Open in January and the French Open in June. The loss in Paris came against No. 1-ranked Iga Swiatek, who could be Pegula's next opponent at Flushing Meadows.

1:40 p.m.
Andrey Rublev reached his sixth Grand Slam quarterfinal by beating Cam Norrie 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 in a match delayed by about 25 minutes while the retractable roof at Louis Armstrong Stadium remained open during a downpour.
The No. 9-seeded Rublev is into his third quarterfinal at Flushing Meadows. But he is 0-2 at that stage in New York — and 0-5 at all majors.
Rublev next faces 22-time Grand Slam champion Rafael Nadal or 24-year-old American Frances Tiafoe, who were scheduled to meet later Monday.
No. 7 Norrie was trying to reach the second Grand Slam quarterfinal of his career — and of this year. He lost in the Wimbledon semifinals to eventual champion Novak Djokovic in July.

1:15 p.m.
Play has resumed between two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova and No. 8 seed Jessica Pegula in Arthur Ashe Stadium after a rain delay of 45 minutes while they waited for the retractable roof to close and the court to be dried.
The fourth-round match was halted in the middle of the third game with the score at 1-all.
Action also returned at Louis Armstrong Stadium between No. 7 Cam Norrie and No. 9 Andrey Rublev after a delay of just under 25 minutes.
Shortly after they picked back up, Rublev closed out the second set for a 6-4, 6-4 lead in their fourth-round contest.
No other courts at Flushing Meadows have a roof, so play is suspended in doubles and junior matches.
___
12:45 p.m.
Rain is delaying play in all matches at Flushing Meadows — even in the two arenas with retractable roofs, Arthur Ashe Stadium and Louis Armstrong Stadium.
The courts were not covered when a little drizzle became a heavy downpour.
The match in Ashe between two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova and No. 8 seed Jessica Pegula was in the middle of the third game with the score at 1-all.
The match in Armstrong between No. 7 Cam Norrie and No. 9 Andrey Rublev was in the third set with Rublev up a set and a break at 6-4, 4-3.
___
11:15 a.m.
Play has started on Day 8 at Flushing Meadows, with No. 7 seed Cam Norrie facing No. 9 Andrey Rublev in Louis Armstrong Stadium for a quarterfinal berth.
The winner of that matchup will face 22-time Grand Slam champion Rafael Nadal or 24-year-old American Frances Tiafoe, who are scheduled to play in Arthur Ashe Stadium later Monday.
After a string of upsets, and Serena Williams’ loss in what is expected to be her final match, left no past U.S. Open women’s champions in the field, all eyes are now on No. 1 Iga Swiatek. The two-time French Open champion will try to make the U.S. Open quarterfinals for the first time when she plays unseeded Jule Niemeier.
The Ashe program begins at noon with two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova taking on the highest-ranked American woman, Jessica Pegula.

We might not be totally off the shorts and shades but rainbow colours are the in-thing this spring.
Rainbow colours have, without doubt, taken the country by storm as we move away from the dreary winter season to the sunny days of spring and summer.
The excitement has shifted to colours that warm our hearts and if you are lucky to have the brights in your closet, it is time to take them out and parade them with pride.
And if you don’t, start preparing for balmy days of spring by stocking up the closet with colour blocks just because they are back this spring.
The trendsetters say the rainbow colours will be a big thing and will bring back colour-blocking with a style.
Rainbow themed picnics and events will on most occasions bring event attendees together in their chosen colour from the rainbow, the same theme will continue with the décor and food on the table that match the colour theme.
Speaking to Maureen “Nono” Skosana, the founder of Nono Events, on the latest trends, she describes the theme as “the heart-warming way to celebrate relationships and compliment the upcoming spring season”.
She said requests for colourful themes have been flooding her inbox this spring but she also says the colours will be with us even in the coming summer months.
“The spring season is known to be celebrated through colour,” says Skosana. “We have also noted that people have decided to take the colourful theme to their events. Guests are most of the time feeling happy by just being in a colourful space. “Colours bring out the best and most exciting moods and that is all we need right now after the pandemic had drained us. Plus, colour represents diversity, which is what the country stands for. We are a rainbow nation after all,” says Skosana.
Popular musician DJ Zinhle and daughter Kairo also follow colour blocking themes. DJ Zinhle recently invited close family and friends to a colourful 10 years celebration of her jewellery business called Era, with attendees choosing to grace her occasion in bright colours. The attendees unsurprisingly came together to form a rainbow-like maze.
The rest of Mzansi has embarked on calling friends to their space for rainbow picnics. There is no limit to it, it can be done with family or colleagues.
However, Skosana warns those embarking on the trend not to confuse it with the 2011 colour-blocking fusion of colours, whereby people would have all the colours in one piece of garment and would look like a rainbow themselves.
“The spring palette contains warm colours including greens, yellows and oranges. So, if you don’t have enough surrounding to cover up all rainbow colours, you can just emphasise on the three mentioned because we aim to be bright.
“Enjoy spring the best way you know how, have those rainbow events and picnics, if they bring a smile to your face, then it is worth it,” says Skosana.

WATCH: Grandmother celebrates 91st birthday by skydiving
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – A 91-year-old woman in Minnesota celebrated her birthday by taking an exhilarating leap from a plane.
Members of a Twin Cities church banded together to give Ida Shannon a high-flying birthday gift.
“I went ziplining for my 80th birthday,” she said. “Someone asked me what I was going to do next, and without even thinking about it, I said, ‘Oh, I’ll just go skydiving.’”
Shannon took the leap of her life by skydiving with the support of members of Heights Church in Fridley.
“I didn’t really think that was ever going to happen, but then they went ahead and raised money for me to do this,” she said.
The 91-year-old has also raised 10 children and worked into her 80s.
“She’s like the real Wonder Woman,” Shannon’s friend Daisy May said. “She’s strong and loves the people.”

SANTA FE SPRINGS — Senior quarterback Dieter Barr passed for 251 yards and three touchdowns for the St. Pius X-St. Matthias football team in a 42-13 victory over St. Paul in a nonleague game Thursday.
St. Pius (3-0) jumped out to a 13-0 lead in the game’s first five minutes with senior running back DJ Powell scoring on touchdown runs of three and six yards.
The Warriors’ offense wasn’t alone in making big plays. The team’s defense came up big with back-to-back quarterback sacks that pushed St. Paul back to its 2-yard line.
On the next play, St. Paul’s punter stepped out of bounds in his own end zone, resulting in a safety. The Warriors led 15-0 with 5:30 left in the second quarter.
“Our defense, our defensive line, they’re phenomenal,” said St. Pius X-St. Matthias head coach Devah Thomas. “Them guys, they get after it, they’re hungry.”
Barr connected with senior wide receiver Xaye Collier for a 17-yard touchdown late in the second quarter, giving the Warriors a 21-0 lead with nine seconds left in the first half.
After St. Pius opened the second half with a quick three-and-out, the Swordsmen (2-1) blocked the punt and recovered the ball deep in the Warriors’ territory.
On the next play, St. Paul junior quarterback Andrew Maushardt hit junior wide receiver Ryan Lemus with a 34-yard strike for a touchdown. After a missed PAT, St. Pius led 21-6 with 11:24 in the third quarter.
St. Paul’s momentum was halted when Barr threw a screen pass to senior receiver De’Anthony Curtis for a 19-yard touchdown.
The Warriors led 28-6 as the third quarter ended.
Barr added to his touchdown total early in the fourth, with a 31-yard fade to senior wide receiver Jordan Shaw.

St. Pius led 35-6 with 7:55 left in the fourth.
St. Paul continued to play hard, scoring a late when junior wide receiver Dylan Arroyo hauled in a 35-yard reception for a touchdown with less than two minutes left in the game.
The Warriors ended the game emphatically when junior running back Dejour Menifee returned the ensuing kickoff for a touchdown, cementing St. Pius’ 42-13 victory.
“It’s really just about the team,” Barr said. “we all believed in ourselves and this was a big win and we knew we were gonna do it.”

Former Warriors Champion Eyeing NBA Comeback
Despite averaging just 3.8 PPG for his career, 26-year-old Patrick McCaw is a three-time NBA champion. Winning two rings with the Golden State Warriors and another with the Toronto Raptors, McCaw celebrated titles each summer from 2017-2019.
In a recent interview with Tim Reynolds of The Associated Press, McCaw said, “I want to make it back to the NBA. I know that’s a process. And I know one day, whenever, next week, next month, next year, when it’s supposed to happen, it’ll happen. But right now, I’m just focusing on this USA, wearing these three letters, giving my all to this team and representing the United States of America.”
McCaw last played NBA basketball for the Toronto Raptors, appearing in just five games during the 2020-21 season before being waived in early April. Still just 26 years old, McCaw is looking to reestablish himself on an NBA roster.
Despite his desire to return to the NBA, McCaw made sure to emphasize that he is focused on USA basketball for the time being. With training camp set to begin at the end of this month, perhaps McCaw can receive an invite from an NBA team, with a chance to make their roster out of camp.
For now, the three-time Champion is keeping his skills sharp with USA basketball, but is certainly eyeing an NBA comeback at some point.

Which watercolor paint set is best?
Whether you take up painting as a child or later in life as an adult, watercolors are a great place to start. They are not only the easiest paints to work with, but are inexpensive, too. Unlike oil and acrylic paints, watercolors need no canvases because they are made to paint on special paper designed to absorb just the right amount of moisture.
If you’re just starting out, take a look at the Sakura Koi Pocket Field Sketch Box, which packs 30 watercolors into an all-in-one kit that comes in its own plastic case.
What to know before you buy a watercolor paint set
Watercolor paint sets include paints and a brush. Beginning watercolorists want a simple set of paints and brushes. Students want more brushes, more colors and the right paper to paint on. Artists take great care in selecting their brushes and papers.
Quality
The three levels of painting skills are beginner, student and artist.
- Beginners are new to watercolors. Paint sets for beginning artists should be small, simple and inexpensive. If they find they enjoy painting with watercolors, they’ll soon want to move on to better paints and brushes. If they don’t, little has been lost.
- Students are actively seeking to learn more and improve their watercoloring skills. They want more colors, more brushes and drawing pads.
- Artists are skilled at painting with watercolors and likeliest to buy their paints and brushes separately to get exactly the materials and tools they need.
Colors
All painters mix colors to get the exact shade, tone and intensity they want in their paintings, and watercolor artists are no exception. The more paint you have, the more colors you can make by combining them. Think of watercolor paint sets like a box of crayons: bigger sets give you more artistic freedom and more ways to express what you see.
What to look for in a quality watercolor paint set
Cake pans vs. paint tubes
- Cake pans are the traditional way watercolor paints are made. Dried paints the size of pats of restaurant butter sit in shallow wells. They are difficult to mix and stir with your brushes. They are also runny, easy to cross-contaminate and often crack as they dry.
- Paint tubes are more expensive, but they are easier to use, easier to clean and come in more vibrant colors. They look like tiny toothpaste tubes with caps that seal so they don’t dry out.
Four things watercolorists want
Brushes
The quality of brushes that come in budget paint sets is as low as their prices. You can upgrade your watercoloring skills with professional-quality brushes.
Paper
Paper that’s too absorbent lets colors bleed together and turn muddy. Watercolors on paper that isn’t absorbent enough don’t stick to the paper. So look for premium paper.
Easel
When you have an easel to place your sketchpad upon, you can hold your brush with one hand and your palette with the other. Look for an easel that is lightweight but sturdy, adjusts to different heights and folds easily for taking along with you.
Palette
The idea behind a palette is that you don’t need all your colors all of the time. Choose a palette that is lightweight, easy to hold and has a snug-fitting lid.
How much you can expect to spend on a watercolor paint set
Depending upon the number of colors and brushes and any extras included, beginner sets cost $10-$20, student sets $20-$40 and artist sets $40-$100 or more.
Watercolor paint set FAQ
Can I mix cake pan and tube paints?
A. If you mean can you use them in the same painting, yes. Mixing tube paints with cake pan paints will only dull their vibrancy, so avoid mixing the two.
How do I take care of watercolor paint brushes?
A. Start by not grinding your paintbrush into your paint wells, the way most brushes get damaged. Rinse often while you’re painting. When you’re ready to put your brushes away, rinse them until the water is clear, pat them dry with a soft cloth and don’t put them away until they are completely dry.

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (WGHP) — A North Carolina school apologized after baptizing more than 100 children without their parent’s permission, according to the Fayetteville Observer.
Northwood Temple Academy, a private Christian school in Fayetteville, posted on Facebook on Thursday, “I feel it in my bones, You’re about to move! Today we had over 100 middle and high school students spontaneously declare their faith and get baptized today. We will have more pictures of these powerful moments posted over the next couple of days!”
That morning, three students had their scheduled baptisms at the school as part of Spiritual Emphasis Week. The offer was then extended to other students who had not been scheduled. More than 100 students in total were baptized.
Renee McLamb, the head of the school, sent families a letter to explain.
“The Spirit of the Lord moved and the invitation to accept the Lord and be baptized was given and the students just began to respond to the presence of the Lord,” McLamb said in the letter, which was obtained by the Observer.
The school says it typically notifies and invites parents to be present for any baptisms that happen on campus, and “it was not the intention of any faculty member to do anything behind a parent’s back or in any kind of secret way.”
“I do understand that parents would desire to be a part of something so wonderful happening in the lives of their children, and so I apologize that we did not take that into consideration in that moment,” McLamb said. “I pray that at the end of the day we will all rejoice because God truly did a work in the lives of our students.”
McLamb told the paper that the school should have given students a chance to contact parents and ask permission. “We were not expecting such an overwhelming response to the message that was spoken, but as a mother I certainly can empathize with why some parents were upset,” she said.
McLamb said that most of the parents that contacted her were glad, but some were unhappy with the move. Some of the children had already been baptized, and at least one family was concerned that a second baptism could undo the first. | https://www.fourstateshomepage.com/news/national/more-than-100-students-baptized-without-parents-permission-at-north-carolina-school/ | 2022-09-05T21:59:25Z | https://www.fourstateshomepage.com/news/national/more-than-100-students-baptized-without-parents-permission-at-north-carolina-school/ | true | 24 |

Wärtsilä and Maersk Seek to Solve Scrubbers' Pipe Corrosion Problem
Engineering firm Wärtsilä and container line AP Moller-Maersk are working together in attempt to solve the pipe corrosion problems associated with scrubbers.
The two companies have developed a solution to the problem of open-loop scrubbers' discharge pipes being corroded by the acidic washwater from the emissions-cleaning systems, they said in an emailed statement. Open-loop systems represent the majority of the estimated 5,000 scrubbers installed in the global fleet so far.
The companies' solution involves a glass-reinforced epoxy pipe being installed inside the original overboard discharge pipe, meaning the washwater will not corrode the original pipe.
Installations of the new pipes will be carried out by Wärtsilä Underwater Services, with installation possible in less than two days in most cases and possible either during scheduled dry dock visits or at sea.
"We have noted corrosion incidents occurring on some scrubber equipped vessels and wanted to be proactive in solving the problem," Jorn Kahle, senior lead specialist at Maersk, said in the statement.
"Additionally, taking a vessel out of service is extremely costly.
"One of the key driving forces for development of this pipe-in-pipe concept with Wärtsilä Underwater Services is to minimise these disruptions and costs.
"We are happy to offer this unique cost-efficient service to any vessel with any make of scrubber."
In 2020 engineering firm Hydrex told Ship & Bunker that scrubber overboard pipe repairs were needed in some cases as little as six months after the systems were first installed. | https://shipandbunker.com/news/world/925578-wartsila-and-maersk-seek-to-solve-scrubbers-pipe-corrosion-problem | 2022-09-05T22:10:51Z | https://shipandbunker.com/news/world/925578-wartsila-and-maersk-seek-to-solve-scrubbers-pipe-corrosion-problem | false | 1 |

KABUL (Agencies): At least eight people have been killed after a suicide bomber detonated explosives near the entrance of the Russian embassy in Kabul, security sources have told Al Jazeera.
The dead include two employees of the embassy, the Russian foreign ministry said on Monday, according to a report by the state-owned RIA Novosti news agency. “As a result of the attack, two employees of the diplomatic mission were killed, and there are also victims among Afghan citizens,” the ministry said. It did not offer any details as to who the staff members were or how they died.
Earlier, RIA Novosti, citing anonymous sources, said 15-20 people were killed or wounded due to the explosion which occurred when a Russian diplomat came out to people waiting outside to call out the names of the candidates for a visa. “It (blast) actually happened close to the embassy where there was a crowd of people gathered to apply for the Russian visa,” Kabul-based journalist Najib Lalzoy told Al Jazeera.
Locals said a large number of people were present at the spot when the bomb exploded at around 10.50 am (0620 GMT) on Monday morning. “The eyewitnesses close to the Russian embassy say the casualties could be very high. Some of them say that even Russian diplomats are among the dead. But it is yet to be confirmed here in Kabul,” Lalzoy told Al Jazeera. Police said the attacker was shot dead by armed guards as he approached the embassy gate in Darul Aman area in the southwest of the Afghan capital. “The suicide attacker, before reaching the target, was recognised and shot by Russian embassy (Taliban) guards,” Mawlawi Sabir, the head of the police district where the attack took place, told the Reuters news agency.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the explosion, the latest to strike the country days after it marked a year of Taliban seizing power. The Taliban government did not immediately confirm the explosion or give any casualty figures. Russia is one of the few countries to have maintained an embassy in Kabul after the Taliban took over the country more than a year ago. Although Moscow does not officially recognise the Taliban’s government, they have been in talks with officials over an agreement supply gasoline and other commodities. In recent weeks, the ISIL (ISIS) group has targeted civilians as well as religious seminaries and mosques in Kabul and other parts of the country.
Journalist Lalzoy said the “unexpected” suicide attack targeted the civilians. “It is very unexpected because the security officials of Kabul believe the security around Kabul is very tight. And these kind of places like embassies are well-protected,” he told Al Jazeera. “Secondly, the explosion happened where the Afghans were gathered. It seems the target was to just kill innocent people.”
Meanwhile, Pakistan has strongly condemned the dastardly suicide attack outside the Embassy of the Russian Federation in Kabul on Monday that has resulted in the loss of precious lives of Russian diplomats and Afghan nationals, as well as many others injured.
“An attack on a Diplomatic Mission is a cause for serious concern and is denounced in the strongest possible terms. The Government and the people of Pakistan extend deepest sympathies to the Government of the Russian Federation,” a Foreign Office statement issued here said. “We also offer condolences to all the bereaved families who have lost their loved ones and pray for the early recovery of the injured,” it added. “Pakistan condemns terrorism in all its forms and manifestations and reiterates its resolve to eliminate this menace. The scourge of terrorism is a common threat which requires concerted efforts in order to address it effectively,” the statement concluded. | https://thefrontierpost.com/8-killed-in-blast-outside-russian-embassy-in-kabul/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=8-killed-in-blast-outside-russian-embassy-in-kabul | 2022-09-05T22:20:07Z | https://thefrontierpost.com/8-killed-in-blast-outside-russian-embassy-in-kabul/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=8-killed-in-blast-outside-russian-embassy-in-kabul | true | 1 |
Two people were killed in a collision Friday night in southern Gage County, according to the Gage County Sheriff's Office.
Authorities say a 2017 Mitsubishi Lancer driven by 31-year-old Cristgen Crouch of Marysville, Kansas, was northbound on U.S. 77 near Barneston and crossed the center line. It collided head-on with a 2009 Honda van driven by 72-year-old James Gallahue of Fort Collins, Colorado.
Both drivers were pronounced dead at the scene.
Speed and cellphone usage were suspected to be factors in the crash, Gage County Sheriff Millard Gustafson said, but alcohol was not. Both drivers wore seat belts and airbags deployed in both vehicles. | https://siouxcityjournal.com/news/state-and-regional/2-die-after-head-on-collision-in-gage-county/article_7d7dda18-d483-5f68-87e5-c4da2924361f.html | 2022-09-05T22:20:43Z | https://siouxcityjournal.com/news/state-and-regional/2-die-after-head-on-collision-in-gage-county/article_7d7dda18-d483-5f68-87e5-c4da2924361f.html | false | null |

IBM: ‘There are not many firms in the world that really understand the telco sector’
In part two of our interview with tech giant IBM, Stephen Rose, IBM’s global General Manager for TME and Distribution talks Open RAN, edge computing, and the future of the telecoms industry.
How do you see the current state of Open RAN in its present form and how large a part of the telecoms industry will it be in the next ten years?
It’s important to appreciate how far the discussion has actually come. The discussion on the notion of Open RAN and open interfaces has been on the cards for 20 years, it’s only in the last three to five years we’ve really seen it actually take shape, and it has taken shape in a couple of ways. Of course, we’ve become organised better around bodies and standards. The other element to that is that the OEMs have started to partake in that discussion much more. And the key for Open RAN is making sure that you can get the performance of these Open RAN networks at the equivalency of the dominant OEM players – Nokia and Ericsson and whoever else is out there right now.
The other element is to ensure that we understand how those elements move between vendors, as the as the disaggregation of the of the architecture happens. I think primarily the concern for the industry is getting the architectural start point established first and making sure that the disaggregated hardware and software even within a monolithic structure can work as it could do in a bare metal environment. That’s the basic table stakes. You’ve got to you’ve got to make sure you get that right.
As we then progressively move in the performance elements, companies like IBM can then play a role where we can then stand up these different environments in our labs, and we can test between different types of vendors and ensure that two things are happening. One is that the performance at the element level is happening, but then the performance across the entire stack is happening. I think that’s incredibly important, especially as we go towards high demand services.
What it really takes is one of the OEMs to move forward and make a not only a definitive step verbally, but also in real working practice.
So I think there could be a couple of steps that happen in the industry, it could be that we see Open RAN deployed concurrent to traditional architectures, or within disaggregated monolithic environments. And you’ll see that if the industry can’t quite get the performance that is looking for then it may be that you’ll see unique deployment of the technology at an earlier stage, and then progressively go towards more of a of an industry standardised way of running the technology for all different types of use cases and services.
I think it’s an exciting space, I think it does drive innovation. The initial imperative, around 30% TCO drop, was over ambitious simply because if you focus only on the money, you actually drive away the incentive in the innovation. But I think if we if we focus on the notion that additional players into the marketplace drive up the innovation, and we could then deploy the technology progressively over time then it’s got a real shot of being successful.
As we move towards 6G, it will become extremely standard. Where do I think it will be 10 years from now? I think it could be up to 25% market share. What it really takes is one of the OEMs to move forward and make a not only a definitive step verbally, but also in real working practice. When one of the OEMs puts big money into R&D, then that’s going to be the tell-tale sign. Meanwhile I think it’s still going to be another couple of years of figuring it out.
Do you think there’s a bit of reluctance or vagueness by some within the telecoms industry around Open RAN which might be confusing the issue?
It’s like anything when you moving into new technology. There are so many definitions of the of the word openness, that’s one concern. But the main concern is… OEMs are driving openness towards customers, and there are great examples of that – Rakuten obviously did that with Nokia, we’re seeing it with Dish, we’re seeing that with a number of different customers around the world – so there’s no question it’s happening. What will need to happen is that the CSPs can be satisfied on the performance and that there’ll be absolutely no changes that become service impacting, if they can be satisfied around that the logic for driving large scale openness is going to be absolutely apparent. And then the real issue isn’t in the performance of the network elements, It will be on the orchestration of those different services as you advance beyond 5G.
Another area that seems to struggle with its own definitions is edge computing. Sometimes there seems to be difficulty to agree on exactly what it is by some in the tech community. How would you define it, and why is it a big deal?
A simple definition for me is it’s anything outside of the traditional centralised data centres. And I think that could be a phone or an IoT device and anything in between. The disaggregation of the of the architecture means that storage and compute will be much more relative to the individual use cases, and then you will see – as the sophistication of the of the storage and compute happens at the edge –more and more and more advanced use cases happening.
But two elements need to happen. One is where do we see 5G? Where do we first see 5G chipsets? Not everything will have a 5G chipset of course so the edge discussion is really how does the user experience become transformed relative to different types of access technology, whether it be WiFi or whether it be unlicensed spectrum, or licenced spectrum? Again, there’ll be strategic considerations in there.
A simple definition for me is it’s anything outside of the traditional centralised data centres. And I think that could be a phone or an IoT device and anything in between.
Then there’s the OEM consideration, and the application consideration which is of paramount concern. Where it does become synonymous with private 5G is when you have customers that will roam between private 5G networks and macro networks, where do they actually hold data? What are the security considerations for that edge location which could be included on site? Of course it could be an on premises consideration. And then what to what extent are they willing to have access to applications and data sets beyond edge activities as well?
So I think there are a lot of considerations around that. IBM’s role has become more and more essential in that especially around security. If you think about some of the access privileges, some of the types of data that are used, the fact that mobile networks and other types of access will be fused with operational technology, then you need to ensure that the edge play and the security play go much more hand in glove.
IBM is involved in lots of the technology areas that are kind of society and industry redefining. With all the changes we’ve discussed coming to fruition, does the telecoms sector in 20 year’s time look very different?
I think it will. But there are universal truths that are out there that we can’t get around. Spectrum is a good example of that. It’s finite. So then the question is how much more can you squeeze out of it over time, and how much more efficient can you use it? And where the industry starts to become so much better in 20 years time is that it doesn’t fixate on one specific type of access technology or another. You’ll see marriage between satellite systems, licenced spectrum on the ground, unlicensed spectrum, and you’ll see that also with other micro layers of communication – device to device, you within the one metre range, not between the one KM plus range.
You’re going to see massive meshed interconnectivity, but again the industry needs to overcome some of the issues around standards, data security, those types of things. I think we’ve already seen the quantification of the industry. What we had is CSPs that were operating on a vertical strategy, I think you’ll see a lot more horizontal strategies as a result of that. And again, that started with firms like Vodafone breaking out and having Vantage Towers. And then you’ve seen the growth of firms like American Towers and Digital Bridge, they have a definite role to play.
The question is, will they have the same multi tenancy role or will they move into the active layer later on? And to what extent can regulation keep up with that? And then the platform players – actually the CSPs become platform players – the big question for them is what cloud strategies do they work on? Do they work on hybrid cloud strategies? I think everybody agrees that a hybrid cloud strategy is the right way forward, but how do they evolve their relationships so that the edge play becomes a real estate play?
There are these notions of the death of the CSP and I think it’s silly. I don’t I just don’t see it like that.
Whoever’s got the service at the edge will be able to serve customers in unique and differentiated ways. So we are going to see a redistribution of the value. There are these notions of the death of the CSP and I think it’s silly. I don’t I just don’t see it like that. I think the regulatory environment would consider that, rightfully in my view, as anti competitive. And you will put too much resource in the hands of a of a few. We don’t want that as a sector. But we do want openness and I think when you see openness, you’ll see more players and when we see more players, you’ll see more innovation.
It’s a very, very interesting space. It’s complicated, which is why you need a lot of tech and technology and you also need a lot of consulting and systems integration expertise as well. The one thing that I think we also bring, and I think this is where we’re excited as well, is that there are not many firms in the world that really understand the telco sector and the way that the telco sector is evolving, and the industries which they are supporting as well.
If you look at IBM, we serve multiple industries. If you’re a CSP you’re serving things fairly universally, if you’re a web scale player you’ve also been serving things rather universally – we know intimately how the financing sector works, how the distribution sector works, so our ability to engage with our customers and stakeholders with insight and wisdom from those different markets and industry verticals is a pretty unique place to be.

California power grid managers are warning of possible rolling blackouts as temperatures from the already-oppressive heat wave spike to even greater heights on Monday and Tuesday.
“We have now entered the most intense phase of this heat wave,” Elliot Mainzer, CEO of the California Independent System Operator, said at a multi-agency news conference Monday. “Forecasted demand for Monday and Tuesday is at all-time record levels and the potential for rotating outages has increased significantly.”
According to the National Weather Service, Monday high temperatures are expected to reach up to 113 degrees in San Diego-area valleys and deserts. Coastal areas will range from 88 to 93.
Wildfires could also knock out generation and transmission, California ISO warned.
A Flex Alert was issued Monday for the sixth consecutive day, asking Californians to conserve energy during peak hours of 4 p.m. until 10 p.m.
Mainzer says, thusfar, Californians have been doing their part.
“Your efforts have been making a real difference. For the past two evenings, electricity loads have come in about 1,000 megawatts below our expectations or approximately two percent below forecast,” said Mainzer.
Californians can track the state’s current energy demand and capacity in real-time through California ISO’s dashboard.
The dashboard shows demand is expected to peak at 48,461 megawatts on Monday. Current capacity is 57,083 megawatts.
Tuesday’s forecasted peak is 51,145 megawatts.
“It’s not over. We have a few more days. It’s going to be tough,” warned Dr. Tomás Aragón, Director of the California Department of Public Health. “Think of your body as having a thermostat. If you’re alone and you don’t have air conditioning and the heat is increasing, you’re going to need to find ways to cool your body down.”
Several temperature records fell on Sunday across the Southland.
The mercury reached 109 degrees at the Long Beach Airport, breaking the previous record of 107 degrees set in 1958. In Oxnard, Sunday’s high reached 101 degrees, shattering a record of 101 degrees that dated back to 1923.
The Burbank Airport hit 110 degrees for the first time since 1939. | https://fox5sandiego.com/news/california-news/heat-wave-enters-most-intense-phase-rolling-blackouts-possible-california-iso-warns/ | 2022-09-05T22:24:22Z | https://fox5sandiego.com/news/california-news/heat-wave-enters-most-intense-phase-rolling-blackouts-possible-california-iso-warns/ | true | 4 |
Hundreds come out for the Elkhart Labor Day Parade
ELKHART, Ind. (WNDU) -Folks in downtown Elkhart lined the streets for the city’s annual Labor Day parade.
Families got to enjoy the holiday by recognizing those who put in work in our community.
From government officials to members of our local unions, nearly 40 different groups made their way past the crowds.
It’s the final mark of the summer in Elkhart, with almost all the work being done by one woman.
“I’d say the last 8 years or so I’ve been doing this one because back when Tim Neis was mayor, he and parks and recreation got together and asked me if I would do this one,” said parade organizer Karla Schwartz.
Schwartz says the parade has been building momentum again after taking a year off to the pandemic.

The Suspect fans all have the same complaint about Aiden Turner as Poldark star returns to screens
THE Suspect fans all had the same complaint tonight about Aiden Turner - and it wasn't do with the show or his acting.
The new ITV drama continued tonight with the hunky Poldark star, 39, playing the lead character of Joe O'Loughlin.
Fans are used to seeing handsome Irish star Aidan as the clean shaven, long haired Ross Poldark.
But for The Suspect, he has switched up his look and has short hair and a HUGE beard.
And despite the new drama's gripping storyline, it was Aidian's new facial hair which has got everyone talking.
Taking to Twitter, viewers were not happy about the actor's beard on the show.
One tweeted: "Now for E2 of #TheSuspect 😎 Mind you, with that ridiculous beard he must be guilty, surely? 🤠
While this one said: "#TheSuspect Not at all keen on Aiden Turner with a beard ☹️"
Another viewer commented: "I remain unhappy with regard to Aidan’s beard #TheSuspect."
This fan tweeted: "Hooked on #TheSuspect already 👌 #AidanTurner .. Shame about the beard / short hair though 🤷🏻♀️"
Most read in Drama
While another said: "Oh I do like Aiden Turner! Not keen on the beard though tbh. He's too good looking to hide away his pretty-boy face behind a beard! #TheSuspect"
Tonight The Suspect viewers watched as the plot thickened around Aidan's character, clinical psychologist Dr Joe O’Loughlin.
After being brought in to help in the murder investigation of a young nurse, he is now the number one suspect.
Joe is convinced there’s something sinister at play, and his paranoia leads him to suspect that one of his patients may know something about the murder.
But the more threads Joe picks at, the more entangled he becomes.
Meanwhile, as Detectives Ruiz and Devi are hunting for new evidence in their case, and a surprising breakthrough turns the spotlight back on Joe.
But he has his own theory about who might have murdered the young woman, but the police are not convinced.

Flower Shop Dispensary becomes 1st operating medical marijuana shop in Sioux Falls
Flower Shop Dispensary laid its claim Friday afternoon as the first medical marijuana dispensary to open in Sioux Falls.
The store opened almost two years after the state passed Initiated Measure 26 to legalize medical cannabis, and after being the first of five businesses to win medical marijuana licenses in a lottery run by the city of Sioux Falls almost one year ago.
Owner Peter Dikun, a Dell Rapids resident who was born in Czechoslovakia, is proud his business’ application was the first ball drawn in the lottery, the No. 1 ball and the first to open in the city. The property he owns near the intersection of 49th and Western was in the city’s “green zone” for dispensaries, so he jumped on the chance to turn it into a dispensary.

“We just got lucky,” he said of the chance to open the business at 2211 West 49th Street, named for the flowers on the marijuana plant that can be smoked.
Flower Shop Dispensary is the third state-licensed medical marijuana facility to open in South Dakota, following Unity Rd. in Hartford and Dakota Natural Solutions Grow in Wessington Springs, both servicing patients with South Dakota medical cannabis cards.
The first dispensary located in South Dakota was Native Nations Cannabis in Flandreau and services those with tribal cards.

After opening doors to customers at about 3 p.m. Friday, Dikun saw people “trickle in little by little.” Friday saw about 40 customers; Saturday, 80; Sunday, 40; and, another 20 before noon on Monday morning alone.
Customers need a state-issued medical marijuana card and must be older than 21 to purchase at the store. Dikun said he’s seen “all kinds” of customers and patients in his store, varying in age. So far, the majority of customers are those close to their 60s, and are professionals with various kinds of ailments, he said.
“This is their choice of relief instead of taking opiates or (other) prescriptions,” he said.
There are five different strains of flower customers can purchase, as well as hemp-based edibles, which Dikun said he can purchase across state lines. Flowers are stored in jars and dispensed “deli-style” from the jars, weighed in front of customers at the point-of-sale stations.
Buds or flowers can be smoked by pipe, water pipe or pre-rolled in joints, Dikun explained, whereas edibles are eaten. There are a variety of edibles: everything from non-THC CBD oil or melatonin for sleeping and anti-inflammatory purposes, or taffy and brownies, for example.

Dikun explained thdoctors who prescribe medical marijuana cards in South Dakota recommend the treatment, not a certain dosage, so that when patients come to his store, either he or one of five other employees walk customers through options and point them in the right direction.
“A majority of people, about 98%, are already familiar with these products,” Dikun said of the more than 2,000 patients who’ve obtained South Dakota medical marijuana cards so far. “There’s a lot of closeted stoners out there.”
Dikun said it takes about one year for markets to mature in any given city that starts a medical marijuana program. Every time customers visit his store, there will be something new on the shelves, he added.
His store gets its supply of flowers from a local cultivator in Tea known as Pure Bliss Farms, which Dikun said has about 10 employees and operates about 7,000 square feet of plants. | https://www.argusleader.com/story/news/business-journal/2022/09/05/flower-shop-dispensary-opens-first-medical-marijuana-shop-sioux-falls/7997380001/ | 2022-09-05T22:32:59Z | https://www.argusleader.com/story/news/business-journal/2022/09/05/flower-shop-dispensary-opens-first-medical-marijuana-shop-sioux-falls/7997380001/ | true | 1 |
MCLOUD, Okla. (KFOR) – A local pastor and his family are trying to clean up after their parsonage caught fire minutes before starting his Sunday sermon.
“I don’t know how people don’t have a church family,” said Susan Tibbits, the preacher’s wife.
While the rest of the Tibbits were at the Church of Christ of McLoud on Sunday, Susan was home sick.
“I woke up to a bang,” said Susan. “It was actually my windows bursting out.”
She left her room to find the back of the house was on fire. The family believes the flames started from a pellet grill on the back porch.
She quickly got dressed, and grabbed some items, before running out the door.
“I headed over to the church and pretty much interrupted and told them the house was on fire and everybody came over,” said Susan.
Douglas Tibbits was only minutes away from preaching to the congregation.
“A man came up to me and said ‘Your house is on fire,’” said Douglas.
“Then he took off running,” said Susan.
The flames quickly began to spread to the entire home. It was a total loss.
The parsonage isn’t just home to Susan and Douglas. Their son, daughter-in-law, and their four young granddaughters live with them while they close on a new house in Elk City.
They kept all of their prized possessions with them in the parsonage, while putting the rest in storage.
“We lost some of their favorite stuffed animals and stuff. Lots of their favorite toys that they played with everyday,” said Brandon, Susan and Douglas’s son. “I have never before cried over a stuffed monkey, because it was just her favorite doll.”
“I have a ton of matching clothes of all of my girls. And it took a long time to find all that. But it’s okay,” said Rachael Tibbits, Brandon’s wife.
Also lost, nearly a dozen little lives.
“All 11 of our dog, Roxy… her puppies died in the fire because it started out back,” said Rachael.
Thankfully, the momma dog and a cat escaped.
Meanwhile, the Tibbits continue to search for anything they can salvage in the ash.
“It’s hard because everything’s black, and it’s just like digging though sand trying to search for a diamond,” said Douglas. “There was one paitning that my grandfather painted that was an oil painint. Her mom has a wedding ring in there.”
Despite the devastating loss, the pastor and his family are still counting their blessings. Their church family didn’t skip a beat. Immediately buying them the necessities they need, along with new toys for the grandchildren and food.
“Just about everyone in the congregation handed me money,” said Douglas. “They went and got us meals.”
“They’ve put us up in a hotel. They have gotten us what we needed,” said Susan. “I’m sure we have a long way to go, but we just appreciate everything everybody has done for us.”
The congregation has set up a GoFundMe for Susan and Douglas, as well as a GoFundMe for Brandon and Rachael.
The Tibbits said the church plans to rebuild, but it will take a couple of years.
In the meantime, the Tibbits are still figuring out a place to stay. | https://kfor.com/news/local/mcloud-preacher-and-family-homeless-after-sunday-house-fire/ | 2022-09-05T22:37:40Z | https://kfor.com/news/local/mcloud-preacher-and-family-homeless-after-sunday-house-fire/ | false | 1 |

Veterinary Epidemiology and Economics
Veterinary Epidemiology is devoted to the publication of high-quality research intended to elucidate the dynamics of animal pathogens transmission, occurrence, or spread within and between populations. Both experimental and observational studies are welcome. Purely descriptive studies, that do not include an analytical component, may be exceptionally accepted, if the disease, setting, or conditions are of particular interest or originate from an area from where limited information was available.
“Methods” papers that introduce relatively novel tools, techniques, software, or applications, are encouraged, if they are presented in terms that are accessible to a veterinary epidemiology audience, facilitating the use and application of the presented methods. Studies with a primary “local interest” (i.e., intended to elucidate aspects of a given disease on a given specific setting) will be accepted if the information is novel and there is a clear hypothesis associated with the study.
For clinical trials, particular attention will be given to the experimental design and epidemiological application of the study. For case reports, novel investigations or descriptions of herd or population outbreaks or epidemics (including narratives of the event, surveillance systems, or control measures) will be considered.
Contributions making use of methods from other disciplines and that are intended to expand the repertoire of epidemiological methods including, for example, the fields of economics, mathematics, engineering, public health, or molecular biology are encouraged if they are presented following epidemiological principles and applications. Ultimately, it is expected that the scientific contributions explicitly indicate how presented and discussed results will contribute to the prevention, control, or eradication of animal diseases.

Each Frontiers article strives for the highest quality, thanks to genuinely collaborative interactions between authors, editors and reviewers, who include many of the world's best scientists and scholars. Frontiers is well aware of the potential impact of published research both on future research and on society and, hence, does not support superficial review, light review or no-review publishing models. Research must be certified by peers before entering a stream of knowledge that may eventually reach the public - and shape society. Therefore, Frontiers only applies the most rigorous and unbiased reviews, established in the high standards of the Frontiers Review System. Furthermore, only the top certified research, evaluated objectively through quantitative online article level metrics, is disseminated to increasingly wider communities as it gradually climbs the tiers of the Frontiers Tiering System from specialized expert readership towards public understanding.
Frontiers has a number of procedures in place to support and ensure the quality of the research articles that are published:
Only leading experts and established members of the research community are appointed to the Frontiers Editorial Boards. Chief Editors, Associate Editors and Review Editors are all listed with their names and affiliations on the Journal pages and are encouraged to publicly list their publication credentials.
Associate Editors oversee the peer-review and take the final acceptance decision on manuscripts. Editorial decision power is distributed in Frontiers, because we believe that many experts within a community should be able to shape the direction of science for the benefit of society.
Submitting authors can choose a preferred Associate Editor to handle their manuscript, because they can judge well who would be an appropriate expert in editing their manuscript. There is no guarantee for this preference of choice, Associate Editors can decline invitations any time, and the handling Associate Editor can also be over-ridden by the Chief Editor before she/he is invited to edit the article or at any other stage.
Associate Editors are mandated to only accept to edit a manuscript if they have no conflicts of interest (as stated here and in their review invitation and assignment emails).
Should it become clear that the Associate Editor has a conflict of interest or is unable to perform the peer-review timely and adequately, a new Associate Editor can be assigned to the manuscript by the Chief Editor, who has full control to intervene in the peer-review process at any time.
The Associate Editor initially checks that the article meets basic quality standards and has no obvious objective errors.
The Associate Editor can then personally choose and invite the most appropriate reviewers to handle the peer-review of the manuscript, including Review Editors from the board or external reviewers.
The Associate Editor is aided in this by the Frontiers Collaborative Review Forum software and interface, which suggests the most relevant Review Editors based on a match between their expertise and the topic of the manuscript. Associate Editors can however choose any reviewer they deem adequate.
After a certain time frame and if no reviewers have in the meantime been assigned to the manuscript, the Frontiers platform and algorithmic safety-net steps in and invites the most appropriate Review Editors based on constantly updated and improved algorithms that match reviewer expertise with the submitted manuscript.
Review Editors and reviewers are mandated to only accept to review a manuscript if they have no conflicts of interest (as stated here and in their review invitation and assignment emails).
Frontiers algorithms are constantly fine-tuned to better match Review Editors with manuscripts, and additional checks are being coded into the platform, for example regarding conflicts of interest.
Should it become clear that a particular reviewer has a conflict of interest or is unable to perform the peer-review timely and adequately, he or she shall be replaced with an alternative reviewer by the Associate Editor or the Chief Editor, who will be alerted and has full control to intervene into the peer-review at any time.
In the Independent Review Stage the assigned reviewers perform an in-depth review of the article independently of each other to safeguard complete freedom of opinion.
The reviewers are aided by an online standardized review questionnaire – adopted to article types – with the goal to facilitate rigorous evaluation according to objective criteria and the Frontiers Review Guidelines.
The Associate Editor assesses the reviews and activates the “Interactive Review” – informing the authors of the extent of revisions that are required to address the reviewers’ comments, and starting the Interactive Discussion Forum where authors and also the reviewers get full access to all review reports.
Manuscript and review quality at this stage are enhanced by allowing authors and reviewers to discuss directly with each other in real-time until they reach consensus and a final version of the manuscript is endorsed by the reviewers.
Reviewer identity is protected at this stage to safeguard complete freedom of opinion.
Reviewers can recommend rejection at this stage if their requests to correct objective errors are not being met by the authors or if they deem the article overall of insufficient quality.
Should a dispute arise, authors or reviewers can trigger an arbitration and will alert the Associate Editor, who can assign more reviewers and/or bring the dispute to the attention of the Chief Editor. The Associate Editor can also weigh in on the discussion and is asked to mediate the process to ensure a constructive revision stage.
The decision to accept an article needs to be unanimous amongst all reviewers and the handling Associate Editor.
The names of the Associate Editor and reviewers are disclosed on published articles to encourage in depth and rigorous reviews, acknowledge work well done on the article and to bring transparency and accountability into peer-review.
Associate Editors can recommend the rejection of an article to the Chief Editor, who needs to check that the authors’ rights have been upheld during the peer-review process, and who can then ultimately reject the article if it is of insufficient quality, has objective errors or if the authors were unreasonably unwilling to address the points raised during the review.
Chief Editors can at any stage of the peer-review step in to comment on the review process, change assigned editors, assign themselves as a reviewer and even as the handling editor for the manuscript, and therefore have full authority and all the mechanisms to act independently in their online editorial office to ensure quality.
Only leading researchers acting as Associate Editors, who are not part of Frontiers staff, can make acceptance decisions based on reviews performed by external experts acting as Review Editors or reviewers. None have a financial incentive to accept articles, i.e. they are not paid for their role to act as Associate or Review Editors, and any award scheme is not linked to acceptances of manuscripts.
Chief Editors receive an honorarium if their specialty section or field reaches certain submission levels. However, this honorarium is based on the total number of submitted articles during a calendar year, and not the number of accepted articles. Therefore they also have no financial incentive to accept manuscripts.
The Frontiers platform enables post-publication commenting and discussions on papers and hence the possibility to critically evaluate articles even after the peer-review process.
Frontiers has a community retraction protocol in place to retract papers where serious concerns have been raised and validated by the community that warrant retraction, including ethical concerns, honest errors or scientific misconduct. | https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/veterinary-science/sections/veterinary-epidemiology-and-economics/about | 2022-09-05T22:38:56Z | https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/veterinary-science/sections/veterinary-epidemiology-and-economics/about | true | 263 |

Monday PM Forecast: stubborn weather pattern this week
Gray will be the color of the week. Expect a lot of cloud cover with times of showers and thunderstorms.
Next 24 Hours: Showers will diminish overnight but clouds will remain stubborn. Low temperatures will fall into the low 70s. Like Monday, Tuesday will bring mostly cloudy skies. With those clouds blocking out sunshine, it will difficult for heavier showers and thunderstorms to develop. Rain should be light and spotty. High temperatures will stay in the mid 80s.
Up Next: On Wednesday, a weakening front will move in from the north with scattered showers and thunderstorms. Some of these could bring briefly gusty wind and downpours. The rest of the week will then bring more gloomy conditions with mostly cloudy skies and occasional showers and thunderstorms. The struggle for sunshine will cause below average high temperatures in the 80s. Overnight lows will be closer to normal in the low 70s. Over the weekend, some drier air is expected to filter into the region helping to break apart clouds and lower daily rain coverage. It is a little too early to tell if this dry air will take over by Saturday or wait until Sunday. Tigers and Jags fans will be watching closely! CLICK HERE for your detailed 7-Day Forecast.
The Tropics: In the open North Atlantic, Hurricane Danielle is forecast to slowly weaken through the week. As of 4pm Monday, maximum sustained winds were at 85mph and the storm is expected to become a tropical storm by Thursday. Danielle was moving toward the northeast at 9mph and will accelerate in this same direction through the week.
Trending News
700 miles south of Bermuda, Tropical Storm Earl will gain strength soon. As of 4pm Monday, maximum sustained winds were at 65mph with hurricane force winds anticipated by Wednesday. Earl was moving north at 6mph and will pick up speed to the northeast by the middle of the week. Heavy rain will cause isolated flash flooding across Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands through tonight.
A tropical wave located southeast of the Cabo Verde Islands continues to produce a broad area of disorganized shower and thunderstorm activity. An area of low pressure is forecast to form with this system in the next day or so, and environmental conditions allow a fifty percent chance that a tropical depression could form by the latter part of this week as this system moves generally west-northwestward or northwestward over the eastern and central tropical Atlantic.
The Explanation: Tuesday and Wednesday, the local area will remain in southwesterly wind flow aloft on the east side of a shortwave trough of low pressure. Within this flow, occasional disturbances coupled with daytime warming will create enough lift for showers and embedded thunderstorms to develop. With above average moisture in the atmosphere, the threat for heavy rain cannot be ruled out but mainly cloudy to overcast skies may limit the warming needed to maximize this threat. By the middle and end of the week, the upper level pattern will change but the weather we experience may not be altered much. The shortwave trough will become a cut off upper level low. All other factors equal, mostly cloudy skies with times of light to moderate rain are anticipated through Friday. High temperatures will keep below average thanks to the gloomy conditions with readings generally maximizing in the mid 80s. On Saturday, a weak surface low and front will push to the southeast, possibly allowing some drier air to wrap in on the backside to lower rain coverage across Louisiana and Mississippi. Should the drier pattern emerge, a bit more sunshine will help afternoon temperatures closer to 90 degrees.

Mike Kafka will be the Giants’ offensive playcaller, head coach Brian Daboll announced Monday.
Kafka, who was hired as offensive coordinator earlier this year from the Kansas City Chiefs, called plays for Big Blue’s offense this preseason, where they finished 2-1.
The former Chiefs quarterback coach will begin the regular season playcalling duties against the Tennessee TItans on Sunday.
“I have a lot of confidence in Mike,” Daboll said. “We’ll stay with how we did things in the preseason.”
Prior to Daboll’s hiring in January, he spent four season as an offensive coordinator calling plays with the Buffalo Bills. His time with the Bills was a success, making the postseason three out of four seasons he was there. The BIlls also averaged 28.4 points per game last season, third best in the league.
Last season, the Giants’ offense started the season with Jason Garrett as playcaller. Garrett was eventually fired and former Browns head coach Freddie Kitchens took over his duty’s following a 30-10 week 11 loss against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Last season’s offensive struggles led to the organization undergoing staff changes in hopes of putting an end to losing.
John Mara, president of the Giants, expressed that he “didn’t feel good” about the direction that franchise was heading in after firing former head coach Joe Judge.
Big Blue averaged 287.3 yards per game, which was only better than the league’s worst Houston Texans.
In a small sample size with limited first-team reps, the Giants averaged 382.7 yards per game this preseason under Kafka’s playcalling, which ranked first in the league.

Ahead of this week's BMW PGA Championship, LIV Golf rebels making a return to the DP World Tour have been involved in a tense meeting with chief executive Keith Pelley, according to reports. 18 of LIV's players will make a controversial comeback to the Wentworth event, including European stalwarts Lee Westwood, Sergio Garcia and Ian Poulter.
Ahead of the Tour's flagship event in Surrey, the LIV players were involved in a meeting with the CEO in which the defectors put Pelley to the sword regarding their future. Members of the Saudi-backed series were competing in Boston until the early hours of Monday morning UK time, before LIV bosses chartered a plane for those competing to Wentworth to make the meeting in time.
In the midst of golf's ongoing civil war, the DP World Tour issued suspensions and £100,000 fines to those players who decided to defect earlier this summer.
And according to the Daily Telegraph , in the meeting the likes of Poulter, Garcia and Westwood questioned Pelley on the Tour's new 'strategic alliance' with the PGA Tour, as well as asking for an update on their DP World Tour futures. The CEO however did not give much away according to the report though.
One unnamed Tour player told the Telegraph: "KP batted well. He stuck his ground and handled it with aplomb." One LIV player though was less than impressed though, revealing: "We didn’t get in as many questions as we wanted and Keith just kept replying that ‘we’re in the middle of an ongoing legal case, so I can’t give you an answer’.
"He also said that the DP World Tour was a pathway to the PGA Tour, but wouldn’t say ‘feeder tour’. At least, his answers are down in writing now.” Going into the event, Pelley already had a number of warnings for the LIV defectors competing at Wentworth.
This included the Saudi rebels not playing in Wednesday's pro-am event, as well as being snubbed from the TV coverage's featured groups. In a memo he said: "They will not be given any on course competitive disadvantage – i.e. unfavourable tee times – but they will not be required to play in the pro-am on Wednesday and will not be in TV featured groups."
The DP World Tour boss also told the defectors that they were unable to wear any LIV Golf branding whilst competing at the home of European golf. Pelley said: "Out of respect for our partners, our broadcasters and your fellow competitors, we would kindly ask you to consider not wearing LIV Golf-branded apparel during your participation at Wentworth.” | https://www.irishmirror.ie/sport/golf/liv-dp-world-tour-saudi-27915928 | 2022-09-05T22:46:04Z | https://www.irishmirror.ie/sport/golf/liv-dp-world-tour-saudi-27915928 | false | 2 |
The front cover photograph of the new book
An Garda Síochána has today launched a book on its development as Ireland’s national policing and security service over the last century as part of its centenary commemorations.
‘The Guardians: 100 Years of An Garda Síochána 1922-2022’ is a collection of contributions from retired and serving Garda personnel, accounts from historians and academics, and historical and contemporary photographs charting the development of An Garda Síochána from 1922 to date.
Garda Commissioner Drew Harris formally launched the book at an event held this morning in Finglas Garda Station.
The book is published in conjunction with O’Brien Press.
The hardback book, compiled by Garda Stephen Moore, takes readers from the first generation of the Civic Guard/Garda Síochána, through the 1950s and 1960s, and right up to the modern policing service provided in 21st-century Ireland.
The book explores challenges, both past and present, as well as some of the key events in the history of An Garda Síochána.
Topics range from policing during the Troubles to women in An Garda Síochána to the success of the Criminal Assets Bureau, as well as many other key moments of the past century that have affected not only policing, but modern Ireland.
Speaking at the launch, Garda Commissioner, Drew Harris, said, "This unique book is not so much a historical account of the first 100 years of An Garda Síochána, but an in-depth look at some of the key dates and events during those decades.
"‘The Guardians’ very much showcases the sacrifices, dedication and professionalism of Garda personnel upholding our mission to keep people safe, and their meaningful contribution to communities’ right around Ireland.
"This book is a reminder too of the 89 members of An Garda Síochána who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect the lives of others.
"I hope that history buffs and casual readers alike will thoroughly enjoy it.”
Ivan O’Brien, Managing Director, the O’Brien Press said, "Since the foundation of the State, the unarmed An Garda Síochána has played a vital role in helping Ireland grow and develop.
"This book tells that story though the key people, events and challenges they and the country have faced: often told from their direct experience.
"Having access to so many previously unpublished voices from the Garda archive adds so much. As a publisher, we are proud to play a part in telling this important story to the people of Ireland.”

Rolls-Royce officially broke ground for its new production support center near Bordeaux, France, on Friday. The 2,000 square-meter (21,500 square-foot) facility will include space for offices, a workshop and a warehouse. According to the company, it will primarily be used to provide production support for the new Rolls-Royce Pearl 10X engine, which will power Dassault’s upcoming Falcon 10X business jet.
“While the Pearl 10X engine development programme for the Dassault Falcon 10X is making good progress, we are already working in parallel on establishing the infrastructure to support Dassault’s flight test activities and its production line,” said Rolls-Royce senior vice president Philipp Zeller. “This new facility will further strengthen our partnership with Dassault and it will ensure the delivery of the class-leading customer support already associated with the name Rolls‑Royce.”
Construction on the center is scheduled to wrap up during the first half of 2023. As previously reported by AVweb, the Pearl 10X development program reached the 1,000-testing-hour milestone last May. The engine is expected to enter service in late 2025 with the Falcon 10X. | https://www.avweb.com/ownership/engines/rolls-royce-breaks-ground-for-new-production-support-facility/ | 2022-09-05T22:49:04Z | https://www.avweb.com/ownership/engines/rolls-royce-breaks-ground-for-new-production-support-facility/ | false | 2 |
England conclude their World Cup qualifying group games by playing Luxembourg at the bet365 Stadium on Tuesday.
Here, the PA news agency looks at some of the key talking points ahead of the contest.
Party atmosphere
Sarina Wiegman’s side are set to get quite the reception in Stoke as they play their first home match since winning the Euros in July. The fixture has sold out and no doubt supporters in attendance will be in celebratory mood, eager to salute the Lionesses’ historic triumph.
Changes
The team made their return to action on Saturday, winning 2-0 away against Austria to secure qualification for next summer’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. With that job done, Wiegman – who had an unaltered starting line-up through the Euros and made three changes at the weekend – has indicated there will be further adjustments on Tuesday. The likes of Lauren James, a debutant off the bench on Saturday, Ebony Salmon, Katie Zelem and Lotte Wubben-Moy may get some minutes.
Nobbs’ return
Another player who may be involved is the more experienced figure of Jordan Nobbs. The 29-year-old Arsenal midfielder is back in the squad after being ruled out of the Euros by a knee issue. Nobbs, who also missed out on selection for the 2019 World Cup due to injury, will be keen to take another step forward with the next tournament less than a year away.
Perfect 10?
A win on Tuesday will make it a clean sweep for England in Group D, with them yet to drop a point in nine games. Indeed, they have not even conceded a goal during the campaign, while their goals for tally is a remarkable 70.
Double figures?
The nine victories to date include a 20-0 thrashing of Latvia in Doncaster last November, the team’s biggest ever competitive win. Whether there is a scoreline in that kind of bracket on Tuesday remains to be seen, but certainly the anticipation is England being free-scoring against Luxembourg, who are ranked 117th in the world and were beaten 10-0 in the reverse fixture just under a year ago. The Lionesses have hit double figures four times in total in the campaign, also posting 10-0 away wins against the Latvians and North Macedonia. | https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/sport/4753162/party-in-stoke-and-bid-for-perfect-campaign-england-luxembourg-talking-points/ | 2022-09-05T22:50:23Z | https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/sport/4753162/party-in-stoke-and-bid-for-perfect-campaign-england-luxembourg-talking-points/ | true | 8 |
Moncada (hamstring) will play Tuesday and Wednesday in Seattle, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
After being activated off the 10-day injured list earlier Monday, Moncada wasn't listed in the lineup for the series opener. Acting manager Miguel Cairo confirmed Moncada will be back in action for the next two games, however, signaling that he'll step back in as Chicago's everyday third baseman. Moncada is currently slashing .197/.269/.313 on the season, with his .582 OPS being his lowest mark since he joined the White Sox in 2017.

It’s been a couple of years since Giggs released his latest body of work Now Or Never, which contained 16 hard-hitting cuts and additional features from Kyze, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Tiny Boost, DeMarco, Obongjayar, Jorja Smith, Dave, and Emeli Sandé. Since then, the South London legend has blessed fans with loose cuts like “Differences” and “Innocent.” Outside of his own work, his deep voice could also be heard on songs like K-Trap’s “Shower Posse,” Max B’s “Bad To The Bone,” Ghetts’ “Crud,” RAY BLK’s “Games,” Sarkodie’s “Round 2,” Meek Mill’s “Northside Southside,” M Huncho’s “Lean,” and Lethal Bizzle’s “Dapper Dan.”
Last week, Giggs dropped off another quality single titled “Da Maximum,” which sees production from Cage, LNK, and Nuki. The hard-hitting offering should satisfy longtime Giggs fans, much in part thanks to the street-oriented rhymes that the UK talent is well-known for:
“I got my gun on me, I’m with the killys, I got my gang on the hunt for the spinach, you set it up and I’ve come the finish, man’ll run up on you, I’m in your city, Dolce & Gabbana, my jumpers are fitted, she came and sat on my lap and I hit it, I make the savages jump on the critic, told ’em I would, said I couldn’t, I did it, told her to pull, she came ’bout 11, my b** ch is rich and she came with a present, she’s in the place in array with my presence, shooter beside me, he stay with the Desert…”
“Da Maximum” comes with a matching visual courtesy of Hundo, which places Giggs in both his hometown of Peckham and Brooklyn, NYC. It’s clear that the “Walk In Da Park” rapper has respect on both sides of the pond, as the video boasts shots of high-end vehicles, a mob of supporters, and more. Check out “Da Maximum” for yourself below. | https://www.revolt.tv/article/2022-09-05/190187/giggs-da-maximum-video/ | 2022-09-05T22:58:17Z | https://www.revolt.tv/article/2022-09-05/190187/giggs-da-maximum-video/ | true | 1 |

It’s a historic step forward, and one they hope could help revitalize Caribbean ecosystems and could pay humans back by offering extra protection from the fury of hurricanes.
Elkhorn coral once dominated the Caribbean. But, just as other vital coral ecosystems are degrading around the world, elkhorn are now rarely seen alive in the wild. This species — so important because it provides the building blocks for reefs to flourish — has been until now notoriously difficult to grow in aquariums.
Which is why scientists were thrilled when they saw their reproductive experiment was a success.
“When it finally happened, the first sense is just sheer relief.” said Keri O’Neil, the senior scientist that oversees the Tampa aquarium’s spawning lab. “This is a critical step to preventing elkhorn coral from going extinct in the state of Florida.”
O’Neil’s colleagues call her the “coral whisperer” because she has managed to spawn so many varieties of coral. Elkhorn marks the aquarium’s 14th species spawned inside the Apollo Beach lab, but the team ranks it as its most important yet.
O’Neil estimates there are only about 300 elkhorn coral left in the Florida Keys Reef Tract — but the spawning experiment produced thousands of baby coral. She expects up to 100 of them could survive into adulthood.
Named for its resemblance to elk antlers, the coral thrives at the top of reefs, typically growing in water depths of less than 20 feet. This makes their colonies crucial for breaking up large waves. During peak hurricane season, reefs are a silent but powerful ally that protects Florida’s coastlines from storm surges, which are growing larger as sea levels rise.
“As these reefs die, they begin to erode away and we lose that coastal protection as well as all of the habitat that these reefs provide for fish and other species,” O’Neil said. “Now there are so few left, there’s just a few scattered colonies. But we’re really focusing on restoring the elkhorn coral population for coastal protection.”
The Florida Aquarium’s news comes after scientists reported in early August that the
Great Barrier Reef was showing the largest extent of coral cover in 36 years. But the outlook for coral around the world is grim — studies have shown that the climate crisis could
kill all of Earth’s coral reefs by the end of the century.
Elkhorn coral was listed as federally threatened under the US Endangered Species Act in 2006 after scientists found that disease cut the population by 97% since the 1980s. And ocean warming is its largest threat. As ocean temperature rises, coral expels the symbiotic algae that lives inside it and produces nutrients. This is the process of coral bleaching, and it typically ends in death for the coral.
“They’re dying around the world,” O’Neil told CNN. “We are at a point now where they may never be the same. You can’t have the ocean running a fever every summer and not expect there to be impacts.”
‘You know that’s impossible’
Elkhorn coral seem to have something analogous to a fertility problem. Its reproduction is sporadic in the wild, making it difficult to sustain a much-needed increase in population. Because of its low reproductive rate, genetic diversity can also be very low, making them more susceptible to disease.
“You could say they’re successfully having sex, but they’re not successfully making babies [in the wild],” O’Neil said. “Terrestrial animals do this all the time. When you have an endangered panda or chimpanzee, the first thing you do is start a breeding program, but coral reproduction is super weird.”
The most challenging part for O’Neil’s team was doing the unprecedented — getting the coral to spawn in a lab. O’Neil said other researchers doubted they could pull it off.
“We faced a lot of criticism from people,” she said. They would say “‘you can’t keep those in an aquarium. You know that’s impossible!'”
They were right. At first.
Elkhorn coral only spawn once a year. In the lab’s 2021 experiment, the environment was strictly controlled to imitate natural conditions. Using LED lights, they accurately mimicked sunrise, sunset and moon cycles. But the coral didn’t spawn.
We “realized that the timing of moonrise was off by about three hours,” O’Neil said.
After that frustrating failure, the aquarium’s scientists knew they had a much better shot this year. And, with support from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Restoration Center and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, the Florida Aquarium did in August what was thought impossible by some peers.
The spawning could be a game-changer, according to Thomas Frazer, the dean of the College of Marine Science at the University of South Florida, and it could lead to a future where coral is more resilient to the dramatic changes brought by the
climate crisis.
“This type of work really matters,” Frazer told CNN. “Corals selected for restoration might, for example, be more resistant to warmer ocean temperatures and bleaching, exhibit skeletal properties that are able to withstand more intense wave energy, or traits that might make them more resistant to disease or other environmental stressors.”
Margeret W. Miller is a coral ecologist who has focused on restoration research for more than two decades. Miller co-authored a study in 2020 that found the elkhorn rate of reproduction in the Upper Florida Keys was so low, it would indicate the species was already “functionally extinct” and could be wiped out in six to 12 years.
Miller said the Florida Aquarium’s breakthrough will open new doors to tackle the larger restoration effort.
“Because this species is an important restoration target, the capacity for spawning under human care opens lots of research opportunities to develop interventions that might make restoration efforts more resilient to climate change and other environmental threats,” Miller told CNN.
Miller said more research needs to be done to make sure lab-spawning elkhorn coral is reasonably safe and effective, to be used in species conservation.
“This sort of captive spawning is not a tool that directly addresses widespread coral restoration at the global scale that would match the scale of the need. Indeed, no current coral restoration efforts meet that scale, and none will truly succeed unless we can take serious action to ensure that coral reef habitats can remain in a viable condition where corals can thrive,” Miller told CNN.
The climate crisis is the ultimate problem that needs to be solved, Miller said. The rapid increase in ocean temperature needs to be addressed, along with threats to water quality. Still, she said, the ability to grow elkhorn in a lab is an important tool in the restoration effort.
“The research on coral propagation and interventions that can be enabled by captive spawning efforts can, however, buy time for us to make such changes effectively before corals disappear from our reefs completely,” Miller said.
Buying time
Elkhorn branches can grow as much as five inches per year, making it one of the fastest-growing coral species,
according to NOAA. And based on observations from the Florida Aquarium scientists, their new elkhorn coral babies will take three to five years to become sexually mature.
Within a year or two, scientists intend to replant these lab-grown corals in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary.
In the race to restore the reefs, scientists agree this breakthrough is only a first step.
“We are really buying time,” O’Neil said. “We’re buying time for the reef. We’re buying time for the corals.”
The ultimate goal is a breeding program where scientists could select for genetic diversity and breed more resilient coral capable of withstanding threats like pollution, warming ocean waters and disease.
Then nature can take the wheel.
“There is hope for coral reefs,” O’Neil said. “Don’t give up hope. It’s all not lost. However, we need to make serious changes in our behavior to save this planet.” | https://grenadachronicle.com/scientists-make-major-breakthrough-in-race-to-save-caribbean-coral/ | 2022-09-05T23:13:32Z | https://grenadachronicle.com/scientists-make-major-breakthrough-in-race-to-save-caribbean-coral/ | true | 20 |

New York: Eventful, unpredictable and – in the end – irresistible. That was Nick Kyrgios against world No.1 Daniil Medvedev. Kyrgios’ 7-6, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 victory broke open the US Open draw, left bookmakers installing him as their tournament favourite, and prompted John McEnroe to hail him “a genius on the court”.
“I am on a high, to see him be this professional,” said the four-time US Open champion. “He’s 27 and potentially there are a bunch of years where he can do his thing, and boy did he do it last night.”
Admittedly, Kyrgios still showed flashes of the ill discipline that has dogged his career. He tossed his racquet twice during the first-set tie-breaker, picked up a code violation for audible obscenity, and later wasted a point by coming around the net post to hit a looping miscue off Medvedev’s racket that would otherwise have landed yards out.
Afterwards, he hinted that if he won a maiden grand slam in New York, he would consider retiring. “It’s not impossible to think that he could do that,” said McEnroe, speaking on Eurosport. “We hope he doesn’t do that because the phrase ‘better late than never’ – that applies to Nick because he wasn’t professional for a long time.
“The guy is a genius on the court, he doesn’t need a coach, he did an unbelievable job tactically.”
In another moment of madness, Kyrgios at one stage whacked a loose ball into the top of the backboard. It was a dangerous move that – if the ball had flown just slightly higher – could have endangered spectators and thus seen him defaulted in a similar manner to Novak Djokovic two years ago.
Yet it seems churlish to focus on the negatives when Kyrgios also thrilled the fans with his magnificent strokeplay. His repertoire included delicious drop shots, venomous passes and the usual whipcrack serve. Apart from one brief energy lull after the first-set tie-break – which he won by 12 points to 10 – he made Medvedev look limited and pedestrian.
“He played a lot of matches where he wasn’t giving it his all and now you see what he is capable of when he does, when he trains, when he is in shape. The guy is phenomenal,” said McEnroe.
“I’ve said this before, the guy has got one of the greatest serves in the history of tennis. The guy was serving at 70 per cent [points won on first serve] – I don’t think people realise that’s the highest on tour, how big he serves, how good his second serve is – now he is backing it up big time. If he plays like he did on Sunday night, he is going to win the tournament.”
In his press conference, Kyrgios said that he had grown tired of underachieving. “When I was really struggling mentally, I was very selfish. I felt like, ‘I feel bad, I don’t want to play’. Then I looked at the people closest to me and how much I was letting them down, and I didn’t want to do that any more.
“I was like, ‘I feel like I’ve got so much left to give to the sport’. I just trained hard. I just put my head down. Look, let’s get in better shape, first of all. Obviously winning helps. I’ve been winning a lot this year. The motivation has been there. It’s easy to train. It’s easier to wake up when things are going great.
“I feel like I’m making people proud now. I feel like there’s not as much negative things being said about me. I just wanted to turn the narrative around. That’s basically it. I just was feeling so depressed all the time, feeling sorry for myself. I just wanted to change that.”

Goldeyes Shine in Regular Season Finale
September 5, 2022 - American Association (AA) - Winnipeg Goldeyes News Release
WINNIPEG, MB - The Winnipeg Goldeyes (53-47) beat the Sioux Falls Canaries 10-1 at Shaw Park in their regular season finale on Monday afternoon.
Raul Navarro tripled into the right field corner leading off the bottom of the first, and scored the game's first run on a double to left from Ian Sagdal.
Sioux Falls (33-67) tied the game in the top of the second. Trey Michalczewski doubled to left leading off, took third on a single to right from Aaron Takacs, and scored on Angelo Altavilla's RBI groundout to second base.
The Goldeyes took the lead for good with two runs in the bottom of the third. Navarro walked leading off and took third when Sagdal reached on a two-base throwing error by second baseman Nick Gotta. Two batters later, David Washington ripped a two-run single down the right field line.
In the bottom of the fourth, Reggie Pruitt Jr. walked with one out and stole second base. After Deon Stafford Jr. walked, Navarro grounded into a force play at shortstop. Pruitt scored when Gotta's attempt for a double play went into foul territory. Sagdal made it 5-1 with an RBI single down the left field line that scored Navarro. Max Murphy singled to left-centre, and the Goldeyes plated a sixth run on a Washington RBI single to centre. Murphy closed the regular season on an eight-game hitting streak, while Washington reached 80 RBI.
Goldeyes' starting pitcher Jhon Vargas (5-3) picked up the win, pitching a career-high five innings and allowing one earned run on four hits. Vargas walked one and struck out two.
Navarro doubled with one out in the bottom of the sixth and scored Winnipeg's seventh run on a single down the left field line from Murphy.
After there were two outs and no one on base in the bottom of the seventh, the Goldeyes tacked on three more runs on a Stafford RBI single, a Murphy bases loaded walk, and a wild pitch.
RJ Martinez, Travis Seabrooke, Zac Ryan, and Alex Hart each worked a scoreless inning in relief of Vargas.
Seabrooke made his 60th appearance of the season, which ties the American Association single-season record set by former Goldeye Jack Charleston in 2018. Navarro finished the game with five runs scored, which ties a Goldeyes' single-game record last accomplished by Adam Heisler on June 26th, 2015 at Sioux Falls.
Stafford and Hidekel Gonzalez combined to catch every inning of the regular season, and set an American Association record by not allowing a passed ball. The previous record was two passed balls set by the 2014 Wichita Wingnuts and the 2015 Goldeyes.
The Goldeyes open the American Association playoffs on Wednesday, September 7th at Shaw Park against an opponent yet to be determined. Game one of the best-of-three Division Series is scheduled for 6:35 p.m.

BLOOMINGTON, Ill. (WMBD) — The Twin Cities celebrated the men and women of the workforce, during Bloomington’s Labor Day parade.
Monday, the streets of downtown Bloomington were lined with community members for the annual event.
“Samuel Gompers, the old labor leader always said that this was a day that was unique in its holiday status because this was a day for workers,” said Adam Heenan, president of Bloomington-Normal Trades and Labor Assembly.
In 2021, the parade highlighted the resiliency of workers during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This year, the focus was the Workers’ Rights Amendment that would protect the right to collectively bargain. The measure will go to Illinois voters this November.
“It allows for workers to enforce safety and give themselves raises. If they want to organize a union, it would ensure their right to do so,” Heenan said.
Labor Day isn’t just about where workers’ rights are headed, some union leaders said it’s a reminder of how far they’ve come. Ronnie Paul, business manager of Laborer’s Local 362, said the progress is evident through conversations with longtime union members.
“To listen to them talk about how job site conditions were and the wages that they made, how there was no pension,” Paul said. “Where we’re at today, today is a celebration”.
Paul added that there’s no better time to get involved with the labor movement.
“There’s a definite need for more workers, we typically average about 10 apprentices a year, and we’re over 65 this year,” Paul said.
As thousands come out to Bloomington each year for the parade, union leaders said it says a lot about the community.
“People recognize that this community is built of working people,” Heenan said.
The Bloomington Labor Day parade is the largest parade in McLean County. | https://www.centralillinoisproud.com/news/local-news/twins-cities-honor-workforce-during-labor-day-parade/ | 2022-09-05T23:33:55Z | https://www.centralillinoisproud.com/news/local-news/twins-cities-honor-workforce-during-labor-day-parade/ | false | 1 |
Labor union presence in Rapid City, stronger than you may think
RAPID CITY, S.D. (KEVN) - Every first Monday of September, America celebrates the strides and achievements of workers in every industry. There are several organizations right here in the Black Hills that negotiate contracts and benefits with many of those workers.
At the time of the Industrial Revolution, Labor Unions sprouted up around the country to ensure the rights of American workers, and Rapid City was no exception.
The first iteration of the Rapid City chapter of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers kicked off in the 1920′s but was put on hold during World War II, returning in the 40′s.
Cassie Silbernagle is the president of IBEW 1250, he said that the union has had an important role in Rapid City history, including after the 1972 flood.
“All of the building trades after the flood were big in the efforts to rebuild Rapid City and get the community up and going again.”
The IBEW isn’t the only active labor union chapter in Rapid City. There are a number of other chapters covering a wide array of labor in Rapid City.
The unions, that make their home at the AFL-CIO temple on Saint Patrick Street, cover workers from police officers, to grocery store workers.
Silbernagle said that many people in the community may not even know these unions exist.
He adds the labor movement in the Black Hills is as strong as it’s ever been, with more opportunities in the area arising as time goes on.
“There’s been a big push in this state for apprenticeship programs, and that’s something that the unions have always offered throughout time, great apprenticeship programs, opportunities to have good wages, learn a trade, excel in what you do, and make a good living for your family and the community of Rapid City.”
He adds that as technology continues to grow at an exponential rate, unions will play a vital role in the future to ensure that workers’ rights are ensured.

The US Open is consistently one of the biggest sporting events of the summer in New York City. Every year, over 700,000 fans from all across the globe come to the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing Meadows, Queens for two weeks of elite tennis in the final Grand Slam of the season.
While the action can be enjoyed on TV, there is really nothing quite like attending the US Open in person. An overwhelming energy pulses from the large number of outside courts and the celebrity and mystique of the stadium courts is unmatched. Plus, there is a vast collection of food from award-winning chefs, tons of delicious drinks, and plenty of places to get a large variety of merchandise.
In our guide, we’ll give you all the local tips to ensure that you have the best time at the US Open. We’ve been going for years. We know the courts inside and out. We tasted the food this year. We’ve even sampled a few Honey Deuces, so we know how to make sure you get the most out of your 2022 US Open experience.
When is the US Open?
The main draw of the US Open runs until Sunday, September 11th.
What time are the sessions?
The day sessions begin every day at 11:00 AM ET, and the night sessions begin at 7:00 pm ET.
The day sessions will feature many games on the outside courts and a few matches on both of the stadium courts. The night sessions are built around the matches in the stadium courts but will feature a couple of matches on the outside courts
When should you go?
Our preference is to go during the first week of the tournament. Since there are so many matches being played on these days, there is constant action on the outside courts, meaning you get the most bang for your buck.
Tickets for these early sessions also tend to be slightly cheaper, starting around $70.
Where should you sit?
Ticketmaster and other ticket sites will give you different options that say: Louis Armstrong Stadium tickets, Grandstand tickets, and Arthur Ashe Stadium tickets.
These will then prompt you to select a seat at the stadium you’ve chosen. You get a reserved seat in that stadium and then general admission to the other stadiums and the grounds where the outside courts are.
However, here’s the thing, we think that causes you to spend too much money.
Selecting stadium tickets means you’re spending around $200 and up per ticket for Arthur Ashe, $125 and up for Louis Armstrong, or $100 and up for the Grandstand. The only place you’re getting a reserved seat is at the stadium you chose, while the rest of the time you are General Admission.
So unless you plan to spend your entire time sitting in the same seat at that one stadium, you are far better off spending $70 to get General Admission tickets. You can still get access to all of the stadiums, you just won’t get a reserved seat; you will have to sit in whatever seats are open. Considering we believe the best part of the early days is walking around the grounds, this is our preferred way to enjoy the US Open.
How do you get there?
By Car: You can always choose to drive to the US Open, but be prepared to deal with a few parking issues. You can park in two zones near the Billie Jean King Tennis Center, but if the lots are full, you may be directed to park a little bit farther away at Citi Field (provided there is not a Mets game). The walk isn’t bad, but it has been hot in the city lately. Regardless, parking is about $30 so be prepared for that as well.
If you don’t want to deal with parking, you can always use Uber, Lyft, or any other type of rideshare. There is easy pick-up and drop-off that the Tennis Center but that is also about a five-minute walk from the venue.
Subway: The 7 train to Mets-Willets Point will essentially get you right to the Billie Jean King Tennis Center. You’ll have to walk down the boardwalk from the subway to the center, but it’s all right there for you. You can pick up the 7 train at the Court Square station if you’re coming from Brooklyn or from either Times Square or Grand Central if you’re coming from Manhattan.
Rail: If you don’t want to deal with subway transfers and are OK spending a little more money, you can take the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) from Penn Station or Woodside right to Mets-Willets Point Station. This can sometimes be easier if you’re taking NJ Transit in or coming from out on Long Island, but is, obviously, more expensive than just paying for a subway ride.
What is the best food to eat?
OK, you’re at the US Open. You’re walking the grounds and enjoying a wonderful day of tennis, but now you’re ravenous. What should you eat? Good news for you, we went to the 2022 US Open Food Tasting Preview to sample all of the food being offered at this year’s Open so that we could give you the best recommendations.
The Billie Jean King Tennis Center features a mixture of restaurants, like chef Alex Guarnaschelli’s Fare or chef David Burke’s Mojito, as well as tons of concession offerings in the US Open Food Village that are still prepared by award-winning chefs. You’re not getting basic stadium burgers and fries here.
So what were the best things we ate? What do you need to eat at the US Open? (We also did a whole TikTok series reviewing the food so check it out).
- Field Trip: Field Trip is a rice-centric favorite from Harlem chef JJ Johnson, who is also a James Beard award-winner. This food stall offers rice bowls topped with a variety of delicious options like fried chicken or braised beef. They also provide grain salads and other lighter options for those who might not be eating meat.
- Poke Yachty: If you’re feeling the heat during the afternoon session and want something fresh, we loved the poke bowl from Poke Yachty. We tried the Classic Tuna Rice bowl, which had delicious chunks of tuna, rice that was soft but not mushy, and a shoyu sesame dressing that I would have licked off my arm (which I did when I spilled it on myself). It also has wonton crisps which give the bowl a delightful crunch and texture change.
- Korilla BBQ: Korilla BBQ has been at the US Open before and is always one of our favorites. We had the Spicy Pork Rice Bowl, but I promise every option won’t feature rice. The star of the bowl is the kimchi, which is crunchy and a perfect mix of spicy and sour. The pork on top is not spicy itself but is really flavorful. I could have done without the corn that is also on top of the bowl, but it was still a really tasty dish overall.
- Melt Shop: Melt Shop served us up a Chicken Bacon Ranch sandwich and, I mean, what’s not to like about a chicken bacon ranch? The chicken is crispy, and the bread is lightly toasted so the ranch doesn’t make it soggy. It’s decadent but we loved every bite.
- Fuku: Speaking of decadent, Fuku served up multiple offerings that came with a side of caviar and ranch. We’re not even really caviar people, but dipping your jalapeno chicken wing in was pretty tasty. The wings had a beautiful crunch to the skin, and Fuku also offered Impossible chicken nuggets, which, to be honest, we didn’t even know weren’t chicken until we read the menu. Those also come with the caviar ranch dressing and waffle fries, so it’s another heavy option, but damn if it isn’t tasty.
- Taqueria Nixamal: This was another favorite. It’s just a simple street taco, but there is really nothing wrong with that. They offer chicken and steak tacos, but the real winner might also be the elote (street corn), which comes in a half cob on a stick. Give it a squirt of lime, and it’s a great offering at any time of day.
- Fly Fish: If you really want to treat yourself a bit, the lobster roll at Fly Fish, which is located by Court 7, tasted like it was straight out of New England. Big chunks of lobster and a roll that was lightly toasted and buttery. We only got a small portion, but it was the thing we were craving the most.
- Van Leeuwen Ice Cream: New this year is the trendy Van Leeuwen Ice Cream. There’s not really much to say about it. It might be 90 degrees when you’re at the US Open, and they make damn good ice cream. They also offer vegan flavors, so everybody can enjoy some. Just expect the lines to be long since they were crazy long when we were there during the qualifier tournament.
What should you drink?
The official drink of the US Open is the Honey Deuce, which is Grey Goose vodka, Chambord raspberry liqueur, fresh lemonade, and three melon balls meant to look like tennis balls. You can choose to order them frozen or on the rocks (although a bartender told us the frozen ones are stronger).
The US Open also offers Lavazza coffee in both espresso and Cold Brew form, so you can stay alert throughout the day, and Poke Yachty sells a Pineapple Green Tea that is refreshing for people who want a little caffeine without going full-on cold brew.
The truth is that there’s really no bad way to enjoy the US Open. It’s one of the most exciting sporting events around, and we get to enjoy it in our own backyard of New York City. With same-day tickets readily available, it’s never too late to decide to take the day off of work, head to the night session once the work day is over, or spend a weekend with the family at the Billie Jean King Tennis Center.
We will have you covered every day of the tournament with the key games to watch and our best bets if you choose to gamble on the event, so make sure you head back to amNY every morning to keep up with the 2022 US Open. | https://www.amny.com/sports/tennis/us-open/2022-us-open-guide-food-drink/ | 2022-09-05T23:38:58Z | https://www.amny.com/sports/tennis/us-open/2022-us-open-guide-food-drink/ | true | 1 |

NEW YORK (AP) — The possibility of a great red wave still looms.
But as the 2022 midterm elections enter their final two-month sprint, leading Republicans concede that their party’s advantage may be slipping even as Democrats confront their president’s weak standing, deep voter pessimism and the weight of history this fall.
The political landscape, while still in flux, follows a string of President Joe Biden’s legislative victories on climate, health care and gun violence, just as Donald Trump’s hand-picked candidates in electoral battlegrounds like Arizona, Georgia, Ohio and Pennsylvania struggle to broaden their appeal. But nothing has undermined the GOP’s momentum more than the Supreme Court’s stunning decision in June to end abortion protections, which triggered a swift backlash even in the reddest of red states.
“This midterm looks and feels significantly different than it did six months ago,” said veteran Republican pollster Neil Newhouse. The abortion ruling “has energized some segments, especially the Democratic constituency, and it has thrown a wrench, at least to some extent, into the hopes of winning a ton of seats.”
History suggests Republicans should dominate the November elections.
In the modern era, the party that holds the White House has lost congressional seats in virtually every first-term president’s first midterm election. Ronald Reagan lost 26 House seats, Bill Clinton lost 52, Barack Obama 63 and Trump 40. Only George W. Bush’s Republican Party enjoyed a modest eight-seat gain in his first midterm, coming after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
Nine weeks before Election Day, leading operatives in both parties expect Republicans to pick up roughly 10 to 20 House seats, which would give the GOP a narrow majority in the chamber in November and break up Democrats’ control of the federal government. But many Republicans are losing confidence in the high-stakes fight for the Senate majority and key governorships across the nation.
In Pennsylvania, Democratic gubernatorial candidate Josh Shapiro argues that his focus on public safety, education, the economy and freedom is driving his momentum but concedes that his opponent is also a major factor.
“Folks trust me to get it done,” Shapiro, the state attorney general, told The Associated Press. “And in fairness, in part, it’s because I’m running against the guy who’s by far the most extreme and dangerous candidate in the nation.”
In one of the nation’s most important swing states, Republicans nominated Doug Mastriano as their nominee for governor, even after learning about his leading role in Trump’s push to overturn the 2020 election.
The state senator and retired military officer helped organize the state’s effort to submit fake presidential electors beholden to Trump and was seen outside the Capitol as pro-Trump demonstrators attacked police on Jan. 6, 2021. He has also alienated moderate voters and even some Republicans with divisive positions on several issues, including abortion, which he opposes in all circumstances.
Mastriano’s campaign didn’t respond to an interview request for this story.
Shapiro will launch his first TV ad of the fall campaign on Tuesday, casting Mastriano’s fierce opposition to abortion rights and gay marriage as a threat to Pennsylvania’s economy. The ad is the first spot in a $16.9 million television advertising investment the campaign reserved for the nine weeks leading up to Election Day.
Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel acknowledged that the GOP must sharpen its message on abortion given the Democrats’ apparent momentum.
“We can’t allow them to control the narrative,” McDaniel said in an interview.
She emphasized Republican leaders’ record of supporting exceptions for abortion in cases of rape, incest and the life of the mother, sidestepping questions about candidates like Mastriano, Georgia Senate nominee Herschel Walker and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who oppose such exceptions.
“I’m not going to speak about every candidate and where they’re at,” McDaniel said. “But the past four Republican presidents since Roe believe in the exception, and that is where I think a lot of the American people are, according to polling. But they also believe in limitations, and Democrats have shown no inclination to have any limitation.”
On the Republican Party’s broader midterm outlook, McDaniel said top races were always likely to tighten, despite the conventional wisdom that a massive red wave was building.
“Many of these states are battleground states,” she said. “It’s going to be tight.”
On paper, Republicans continue to enjoy tremendous advantages.
Beyond the weight of history, Democrats are saddled with Biden’s low favorability ratings as roughly 7 in 10 voters believe the country is headed in the wrong direction. Democratic strategists acknowledge serious political headwinds as inflation and pessimism surge, but they note gas prices have ticked down, pandemic worries have waned and Biden has won major legislative victories on several key issues.
“Republicans haven’t taken advantage of the bad political environment. And they punted on having any agenda or getting anything done,” said Biden pollster John Anzalone, who was far less confident about the midterm outlook at the beginning of the summer.
“Historically, this should be a 30- or 40-seat win by Republicans,” he added. “The entire Republican Party has been one big mistake for the past four or five months.”
Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell has blamed GOP “candidate quality” for why his party was more likely to win the House than the Senate.
Florida Sen. Rick Scott, who leads the Senate GOP campaign arm, sees it differently.
“He and I clearly have a disagreement on this. I think we’ve got great candidates,” Scott told the AP, citing opportunities to challenge Democrats in blue states like Colorado and Washington state. “I think we’re doing fine.”
Scott did acknowledge some uncertainty involving Trump’s role in the coming weeks.
The former president helped his loyalists, most of whom embraced his conspiracy theories about the 2020 election, win primary elections across the country throughout the spring and summer. But it’s unclear how Trump will help them, if at all, as the election moves into the fall.
“He’s got a choice about what he wants to do. He clearly has some candidates that he wanted to get through the primaries and they did,” Scott said. “He’ll make his own decision on what he wants to do.”
At the same time, a disproportionate number of women are registering to vote. And if recent voting patterns hold, that’s good news for Democrats.
In at least seven states, women made up a higher share of newly registered voters following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, according to an AP analysis of voter data from L2, a nonpartisan data provider.
In the five weeks after the court eliminated the constitutional right to abortion, women made up 64% of new Kansas registrations. Then, on Aug. 2, Kansas voters overwhelmingly rejected a ballot measure that would have let state lawmakers impose new restrictions on abortions.
Trump-backed Republicans who oppose abortion rights are fighting for momentum in several swing states.
A leading Republican Senate super PAC recently canceled television ad reservations in Arizona, where Blake Masters is running, while committing $28 million to help Trump loyalist JD Vance in Ohio, a state Trump carried by 8 points in the last election. In Pennsylvania, there are concerns that Mastriano is dragging down the rest of the Republican ticket, while Trump-endorsed GOP Senate nominee Mehmet Oz is struggling with residency questions. And in Georgia, Walker is facing difficult questions about his past and his opposition to abortion in all cases.
Rep. Tom Emmer, the Minnesota Republican who leads the House GOP campaign arm, warned his party against taking anything for granted.
He noted that most of the seats Republicans are targeting this fall are set in districts Biden carried, a contrast from past elections where Republicans found success in GOP-leaning districts.
“Don’t be measuring the drapes,” Emmer told the AP in a message to Republican colleagues. “This isn’t the typical midterm that we’re talking about.”

TEHRAN, Sept 6 — Carlos Queiroz is expected to return for a second spell in charge of Iran ahead of the 2022 World Cup, state media reported Monday.
“The (Iranian) football federation will announce between now and the end of the week the appointment of Carlos Queiroz as national team coach,” reported sports newspaper Iran Varzeshi.
Queiroz, 69, is due to replace Dragan Skocic, the Croatian who was sacked in July before being reinstated less than a week later.
“The new head of the federation, Mehdi Taj, is seriously considering the return of the Portuguese coach,” state news agency IRNA said.
Taj pledged to reappoint the former Manchester United assistant and Real Madrid coach during his election campaign.
He was elected president of the Iranian football federation last week, after previously occupying the role from 2016 to 2019.
Queiroz took Iran to the 2014 and 2018 World Cups during an eight-year stint at the helm, the longest in the national team’s history.
Iran will be appearing at their sixth World Cup in Qatar. They begin their finals campaign against England on November 21 and will also play Wales and the United States in Group B. — AFP | https://www.malaymail.com/news/sports/2022/09/06/report-queiroz-set-to-return-as-iran-coach/26711 | 2022-09-05T23:56:50Z | https://www.malaymail.com/news/sports/2022/09/06/report-queiroz-set-to-return-as-iran-coach/26711 | true | 3 |

NEW YORK (AP) — New York Yankees outfielder Andrew Benintendi will have surgery this week after breaking a bone in his right wrist, but the AL East leaders hope he can play again this season.
“I think the possibility of him returning is still in play,” manager Aaron Boone said after Monday’s 5-2 win over Minnesota.
The surgery is set for Tuesday.
Benintendi broke the hook hamate bone while taking a swing Friday night at Tampa Bay and was put on the 10-day injured list the next day.
An All-Star this season with Kansas City, the 28-year-old Benintendi was traded to the Yankees in late July. After a slow start with his new team, he recently began to produce more.
Benintendi is batting a combined .304 with 51 RBIs. He is hitting .254 with 12 RBIs in 33 games for the Yankees.

George Clooney and Julia Roberts joke 'it took 80 takes' for them to film the one kiss scene in their upcoming film
George Clooney and Julia Roberts joked that 'it took 80 takes' for them to film the single kissing scene in their upcoming romantic comedy Ticket to Paradise.
While promoting their latest film together, the longtime friends teased that their on-screen smooch took 'like, six months' to perfect.
'Yeah. I told my wife [Amal Clooney], 'It took 80 takes,' the actor told The New York Times. 'She was like, 'What the hell?'
Hilarious: George Clooney and Julia Roberts joked that 'it took 80 takes' for them to film the single kissing scene in their upcoming romantic comedy Ticket to Paradise; seen in 2016
Prompting Roberts, who is happily married to Daniel Moder, to explain: 'It took 79 takes of us laughing and then the one take of us kissing.'
'Well, we had to get it right,' Clooney, who became fast pals with the Oscar-winning actress since portraying a couple in the 2001 film Ocean's Eleven, interjected.
The father-of-two also revealed their roles were 'clearly written' for them by Ol Parker, who originally wrote their characters' names as Georgia and Julian.
Joking around: While promoting their latest film together, the longtime friends teased that their on-screen smooch took 'like, six months' to perfect; pictured in 2016
'I hadn't really done a romantic comedy since One Fine Day — I haven't succeeded like Julia has in that forum — but I read it and thought, 'Well, if Jules is up for it, I think this could be fun,'' confessed to the outlet.
Meanwhile Roberts stated that the movie 'somehow only made sense with' her and Clooney due to their 'chemistry.'
'We have a friendship that people are aware of, and we're going into it as this divorced couple. Half of America probably thinks we are divorced, so we have that going for us,' she quipped.

The film, helmed by the director of Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again, is a rom-com about two badly behaved people rediscovering love.
This marks the fourth time the Hollywood stars, who play exes on a mission to stop their daughter from making the same mistake they did 25 years ago by marrying young, will reunite for a film.
In the film their characters' daughter Lily (played by Kaitlyn Dever) meets the love of her life on a post-graduation jaunt to Bali, which is where her parents must travel to in order to change her mind.
Four times: Previously, George and Julia have worked together, after Ocean's Eleven (2001), Ocean's Twelve (2004), and Money Monster (2016)
However, judging by the trailer it looks as though Julia and George's trip to save their daughter ends up being a journey in healing their own problems with each other.
From fighting over being sat next to each other on the same plane, to ending up doing tequila shots and embarrassing their child by dancing - it seems as though there could be a reconciliation on the cards.

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (AP) — Cooper Kupp and Robert Woods were just about as close as two receivers can be during their five seasons together with the Los Angeles Rams.
They worked out together, studied together and built a lifelong bond that will outlast Woods' surprising offseason trade to Tennessee.
As Kupp begins his attempt this month to build on one of the greatest seasons by a pass-catcher in NFL history, he won't have Woods by his side. Instead, newcomer Allen Robinson has stepped in with a hunger for success and a playing style that appears to complement Kupp quite well.
After sitting out the preseason, they'll finally play a game together Thursday night against the Buffalo Bills.
“I think at this point, everyone is pretty much ready to move on and see what 2022 is about,” Kupp said. “I think that’s been the thing from the very beginning: What can we be about? It’s a new year, and what’s the old saying? Rent comes due every day.”
Even with several months' distance, Kupp's 2021-22 numbers are mind-boggling: He led the NFL with 145 catches for 1,947 yards and 16 touchdowns in the 17-game regular season, becoming the fourth receiver in the Super Bowl era and the first since 2005 to win the so-called triple crown of receiving.
He built on his first career All-Pro season and his AP Offensive Player of the Year award in the playoffs, making 45 more catches for 625 yards and six touchdowns. The last score was the most important, because it turned out to be the winning points in the Super Bowl on a 1-yard catch with 1:25 to play.
Kupp won the Super Bowl MVP award with eight catches for 92 yards and two TDs. What followed was an offseason of awards, plaudits, public recognition and stardom at a level he hadn't experienced.
He appreciated the attention — well, not all of it, since he decided he hates dressing up to walk red carpets — but he quickly trained his focus back to the day-to-day NFL grind.
“I don’t really have individual goals,” Kupp said. “My goal is just to be a better football player, whatever that is. The numbers might not come out the same. They might not be better, but at the end of the day, I don’t really care about that stuff. I just want to win games, and be able to watch the film and say I’m a better football player than I was last year.”
He'll do it without Woods, who was dealt for a sixth-round pick shortly after the Rams lost Von Miller in free agency and elected to turn their resources to what general manager Les Snead saw as an upgrade at receiver.
Woods joined Todd Gurley and Jared Goff in the dubious club of key Rams players who were signed to massive contract extensions by Snead and then traded or released before those extensions even began.
Robinson has three career 1,000-yard seasons and a reputation as a sure-handed, big-bodied receiver who excels on jump balls. He appears to be fitting in well with the Rams, and his no-nonsense attitude underlines the importance of this opportunity for a 29-year-old receiver finally getting a chance to play for one of the NFL's elite teams after eight seasons in Jacksonville and Chicago.
“The most important thing is just focusing in on the nuances of what I need to do and get accomplished to make this offense better,” Robinson said. “Every day for me is about staying locked in, staying in tune with what’s being asked, and polishing it.”
Kupp and Robinson will be particularly important to the Rams until the return of Van Jefferson, who started all 21 games last season. Jefferson had knee surgery early in training camp, and his absence seems likely to extend beyond the season opener.
With Odell Beckham still unsigned and recovering from knee surgery, the Rams' other receivers are all young and untested: Ben Skowronek, Tutu Atwell, Brandon Powell and undrafted rookie Lance McCutcheon.
Quarterback Matthew Stafford is likely to lean on his veteran duo to get the Rams off to a strong start.
“He’s been so good for us through this whole time, through the OTAs to training camp,” Kupp said of Robinson. “To be able to play some meaningful football now is going to be really fun. To see him as a competitor and see the dog come out, just to go through a real game with him, is going to be fun. I know he’s pumped to get out there and compete.”
99'S PROBLEMS
Rams defensive coordinator Raheem Morris confirmed the Rams disciplined seven-time All-Pro Aaron Donald internally for his helmet-swinging role in the fight during Los Angeles' joint practices with Cincinnati last month.
“You don't want to swing a helmet ever, just at anybody in general," Morris said. “But there are helmets ripped off at times. You never, ever want to do those things. You don't want to have that on your resume. ... But at the same time, those things happen in practices. They're mistakes, they're errors and they're correctable.”
Donald hasn't offered an outright apology for his actions, but he characterized it as a typical joint practice skirmish that got out of control.
“I’m happy nobody got hurt in the practices or whatever, but I’m just focused on Buffalo,” he said. "Everybody protected each other, everybody got out of the situation clean, and that’s what’s important.”

How we forced Nigerian govt to fund varsities in last 25 years – ASUU
The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) said on Monday it used the frequent strike in the university system to force the Federal Government to fund the nation’s ivory towers in the last 25 years.
The Chairman of ASUU, University of Ibadan chapter, Ayo Akinwole, stated this at a media briefing in Ibadan, Oyo State.
He said the union embarked on the current strike in order to force the federal government to improve funding of public universities in the country.
The varsity don added that ASUU gave the federal government a 14-month notice before embarking on the strike seven months ago.
ASUU embarked on a 30-day warning strike on February 14 following the federal government’s refusal to honour an agreement signed by both parties.
The union is demanding a review of the condition of service every five years, revitalisation of public universities, and adoption of the University Transparency and Accountability Solution (UTAS) as an alternative to the Integrated Payroll and Personal Information System (IPPIS) for payment of salaries, among others.
Akinwole said: “Lecturers retain Nigerian public universities with their blood, but is it right for Nigerians to say they should die on the job? I am saying they are owing us over eight years verified earned academic allowances.
“Is it only ASUU that is on strike? Some sectors (research institutes) of the nation have been on strike for 13 months and the government has been paying their salaries.
READ ALSO: How my govt ended ASUU strike in one night – Jonathan
“Is it an offence to become lecturers in Nigerian universities? What led to the strike? It is the non-responsiveness of the government that led to the strike.
“We waited for 14 months from December 2020 to February 2022 before declaring this strike. I am saying 14 months’ notice, 14 months engagements and Nigeria Inter-religious council intervened in 2021, when we would have declared the strike.
“We gave them one month with no result. Heroes are gone before they are appreciated, but our union will not die. We will not die. We are going to be alive to see this struggle through.
“If ASUU does not go on this struggle, there will be no university for new people to attend. In the last 25 years, the federal government would not have spent money on its universities, if ASUU had not gone on strike.
“I am also a parent and my children are at home with me. Most lecturers have to spend their money on their students’ projects for some students to graduate.
“I could give you numbers of some of my students who can tell you how much I have had to support their projects.”

With his 80th birthday approaching in December, Derby resident and volunteer DRC instructor Gary Evans has been taking stock of how he has dedicated his time through the years. He recently came to the realization that he has spent more than half of those years teaching the Carve and Chat class through the Derby Recreation Commission.
“I’ve been teaching wood carving longer than I worked at Honeywell [40 years],” Evans said.
Now, Evans is set to hand over the reins, retiring from his time as an instructor recently. Carl Woods, who has been attending for a few years, will take over for Evans. The latter noted, though, that he fully intends to stay on as a regular participant in the Carve and Chat class – which is now hosted at the Hubbard Arts Center.
Evans took up wood carving in 1979 and shortly after began teaching the Carve and Chat class, which technically predates the DRC. The class began as an effort with the Derby Adult Community Education program offered through USD 260 and hosted at the former high school building (now Derby Middle School).
While there were some concerns about the class being held initially due to low sign up (as a paid course), Evans quickly adjusted and offered to teach Carve and Chat for free as a volunteer instructor. Now, the course is in its 41st year being offered, making it one of the longest running arts programs at the DRC.
Starting carving as a hobby was initially a measure of self-preservation, Evans joked. After his father retired from Boeing in 1979, Evans got a call from his mother that summer in which she remarked, “we’ve got to do something with your dad,” given his newfound free time. The following day at work, a couple of colleagues were discussing a wood carving class starting up at Wichita’s Osage Park. Evans signed both himself and his father up shortly thereafter.
“That’s basically how I took up wood carving is to get my mother off my back,” Evans said with a laugh, “and I’ve been doing it ever since.”
Evans still very much enjoys carving and plans to show up and “just be a pest” at the Carve and Chat classes now. Admittedly, he said finishing projects is not his favorite aspect, but now he will have plenty of time to start several. He also said he is looking forward to not having to do the prep work for teaching the class.
Carve and Chat is offered as a beginner level class, though beginners usually make up a small portion in attendance. As participants pick up the hobby, any interested are invited back to the class to continue their work.
While the numbers have fluctuated through the years, Evans noted he has truly appreciated the camaraderie formed between members of the class. He noted he often told beginners that they would learn a lot in the class – hoping, jokingly, that some of it would apply to wood carving.
Over the years, Evans noted he never really received any bad feedback. Additionally, the Carve and Chat class helped pave the way for the newly introduced Carve and Coffee class – with a dedicated few taking part in both. It’s easy to get hooked, too, as Evans noted there are certain therapeutic elements both students and instructor have picked up on.
“It’s a very good hobby that can relax you,” Evans said. “You can be stressed out, I can go down and start carving, and after a while I’m calm.”
Carve and Chat will continue to be offered from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Thursdays.

Tiffany Haddish breaks silence after being sued for child sex abuse: 'It wasn't funny at all'
Tiffany Haddish has broken her silence on the child sexual abuse claims made against her in a recent lawsuit.
Haddish shared a statement on Instagram on Monday morning.
"I know people have a bunch of questions. I get it. I'm right there with you," she wrote on Instagram. "Unfortunately, because there is an ongoing legal case, there's very little that I can say right now."
The "Girls Trip" actress revealed she couldn't talk about the allegations in detail because the legal case is ongoing.
The lawsuit states that Haddish and comedian Aries Spears convinced a 14-year-old girl and 7-year-old boy to film sexually suggestive video sketches starting in 2013. The brother and sister alleged one was titled "Through a Pedophile's Eyes" and was uploaded to "Funny or Die." The sketch was reportedly removed in 2018.
"But, clearly, while this sketch was intended to be comedic, it wasn't funny at all - and I deeply regret having agreed to act in it. I really look forward to being able to share a lot more about this situation as soon as I can," Haddish added.
The brother and sister are only identified as "Jane Doe" and "John Doe" in the filing.

In one alleged video, the two kids were instructed by Haddish to start "moaning and making sexual noises as they both ate [a] sandwich [from opposite ends] in a manner that simulated the act of fellatio," the filing claims.
"Haddish verbally explained what was expected of Plaintiff Jane Doe and then showed Plaintiff Jane Doe how to give fellatio, including movements, noises, moaning, and groaning," it said.
The skit "Through a Pedophile's Eyes," which was filmed in 2014, "shows Spears lusting over the 7-year-old child and molesting him throughout the video."
"Haddish was present during the filming of the entire video and aided, abetted, and watched Spears sexually molest a child," according to the lawsuit.
The two comedians are accused of intentional infliction of emotional distress, sexual battery, gross negligence, sexual harassment and sexual abuse of a minor. Haddish is additionally accused of breach of fiduciary duty, negligent supervision/failure to warn and constructive fraud.
Haddish's lawyer Andrew Brettler called the accusations "bogus claims."
The plaintiff’s mother, Trizah Morris, "has been trying to assert these bogus claims against Ms. Haddish for several years," the actress’ lawyer Andrew Brettler said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
"Every attorney who has initially taken on her case – and there were several – ultimately dropped the matter once it became clear that the claims were meritless and Ms. Haddish would not be shaken down. Now, Ms. Morris has her adult daughter representing herself in this lawsuit. The two of them will together face the consequences of pursuing this frivolous action."
Spears’ attorney told the New York Post: "He isn’t going to fall for any shakedown."

The folks over at NBA 2K23 have just released updated full team ratings, with the Boston Celtics unsurprisingly designated as one of the league’s Tier 1 teams as a likely contender heading into the looming 2022-23 NBA season. In terms of overall ranking, the Celtics garnered an 82, just below the Brooklyn Nets, Phoenix Suns, and Philadelphia 76ers, and tied with the Golden State Warriors, Memphis Grizzlies, Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers, Milwaukee Bucks, Miami Heat, Atlanta Hawks, and Chicago Bulls.
Boston was rated just 74 on inside scoring, a total of 83 in outside scoring, an 82 on the club’s athleticism, a 78 for playmaking (fourth best overall in the NBA), a 70 in defense (league-best), a lowly 56 in rebounding, 77 for intangibles, and an 84 in potential.
The team’s best player is, unsurprisingly, star forward Jayson Tatum with a 90 overall rating attached to his player profile.
Where does this leave the Celtics? What options do they have regarding making up for his loss? https://t.co/sQ9IclgqMW

Julia Roberts and George Clooney have a lot of history together.
The actors have been friends for decades, which, according to the two stars, made filming a kiss for their upcoming romantic comedy quite funny.
"Yeah. I told my wife, 'It took 80 takes,'" Clooney told The New York Times. "She was like, 'What the hell?'"
"It took 79 takes of us laughing and then the one take of us kissing," Roberts told the publication.
The two next co-star in "Ticket to Paradise," a film about a divorced couple who are trying to stop their daughter from getting married.
"We have a friendship that people are aware of, and we're going into it as this divorced couple. Half of America probably thinks we are divorced, so we have that going for us," Roberts quipped.
She and Clooney have appeared on screen together before in "Ocean's Eleven," "Ocean's Twelve," "Money Monster" and "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind."
Roberts joked about the two reuniting for "Ticket to Paradise" in an interview with Variety in May, sarcastically suggesting that fans should lower their expectations for the film.
"I think it's so funny and George is so funny and George and I together, it's probably going to be terrible because there's too much potential for it to be great, it'll just implode on it itself. I think that should be the commercial for the movie: 'It's probably going to be terrible,'" she laughed.
"Ticket to Paradise" debuts in theaters Oct. 21.

Frustrated Aussie travellers vent after being stuck in Bali
Thousands of Aussies who were stranded in Bali have slammed the lack of ‘compassion’ and ‘empathy’ they have received.
Hundreds of Australians are still stranded in Bali following numerous Jetstar flight cancellations since the start of September.
About 4000 passengers were affected when the problems began last week due to numerous engineering issues that the airline has experienced.
As of Monday afternoon, the majority of customers had been sent home and only 200 passengers were waiting for an alternative flight.
But numerous travellers who are either still stuck in Bali or just back in Australia have shared their horror stories from the taxing ordeal.
Melburnian Meagan Mulder, her husband Adrian and two kids, who had been holidaying with 60 friends and family in the island hotspot, said their travel plans had gone smoothly until it was time to fly home.
“We had 12 friends who were on the midnight flight last night, they had their flight cancelled, they can’t get another flight anywhere for seven people until Friday this week, so they’ve had to get more accommodation and everything,” she said.
She explained that another four friends were forced to book flights with another airline, forking out more than $10,000 to make a detour to Kuala Lumpur.
“For us, it’s a seven-hour delay but we’re getting home,” Ms Mulder said.
Casey Emmerson and her girlfriend Kim were due to come home on September 1, but they are still stuck in Bali.
The Cranbourne locals’ flights have been cancelled twice by Jetstar as the pair desperately try to find a way home.
“Our only option to get home faster is via Qantas, which is over $1500 each, which isn‘t something we can afford, as we still have accommodation, meals, dog sitter fees etc to pay whilst here before getting reimbursed by Jetstar,” Ms Emmerson said.
“Jetstar have told us the next flight they can get us on is September 8 to arrive by September 9, which is unsuitable for both of us.
“I am self-employed and my girlfriend is a BAS agent … since being stuck in Bali, between us we have lost about $5000 income.”
She said the delays had created a lot of “unhappy” customers with her two businesses.
“I have a hamper business and had Father’s Day orders due to be picked up on Sunday morning. I had to message all my customers late on the Saturday night after Jetstar cancelled our flights for the second time and tell them that I wouldn’t be able to get home for them to pick up their Father’s Day hampers,” Ms Emmerson said.
“There were lots of very unhappy customers as it’s hard to find a Father's Day gift late on a Saturday night.
“Not to mention unhappy customers with my other business who have had to wait two months on a waitlist only to make them wait even longer for an oven clean.”
Ms Emmerson said she also chatted to another woman who had to pay $5500 for four people to return home.
The woman could not wait until September 9, as her husband had run out of blood pressure tablets.
Another frustrated passenger, Pauline from Melbourne, had been trying to fly home from Bali for two days after losing her grandfather on Friday.
She finally boarded a flight with her family at 6.30pm on Sunday night.
“I’m exhausted. I just want to f***ing get home,” she said.
“We need to get home.
“All flights have been sold out, delayed, cancelled, we’ve been trying since Friday to get on the flight.”
Another angry customer, Kylie from Melbourne, who was travelling with her two children and partner, said she couldn’t find any information about the changes to her flight on Sunday.
“The most frustrating thing was that we weren't told about three of the delays, no information, no updates. Even online, you couldn’t find the information,” she said.
Dominic and Maerise Dooley have been stuck in Bali with their two kids since the end of last month.
“It’s fair to say we’re frustrated … we want to get home to our life and work in Melbourne,” Mr Dooley told the Today Show on Tuesday.
“We were meant to fly back on August 31. We've had three cancellations and we‘re due to fly back on September 8. So it’s been an extra eight days.”
Ms Dooley said the communication they had received from Jetstar was “terrible”.
“I just feel that there's been no care for us whatsoever, no compassion, no empathy, nothing like that,” she said.
“It‘s really uncomfortable to have no control about getting back to Australia.
“We had to take it into our own hands and fly back Virgin because there was no help whatsoever and no compensation.
Jamie-Lee Donohoe was stuck while her child’s special baby formula was running out.
“I’m in desperate need of help for baby formula please,” she posted on the Bali Bogans Facebook page.
“Jetstar have cancelled our flight back to Melbourne tonight and I had enough formula for my baby to last until maybe Monday but we can’t get a flight out until Wednesday now.
“She has allergies and is on a special medicated formula called Neocate Gold.”
The family were eventually saved by a good samaritan who offered to bring the baby formula with them on their flight over to Bali.
A Jetstar spokesperson apologised for the inconvenience the disruption had caused.
“Unfortunately, our Boeing 787 fleet has been impacted by a number of issues, including a lightning strike, a bird strike, damage from an item on the runway and delays sourcing a specific spare part for one of our aircraft due to global supply chain challenges. The part has to be road freighted across the US,” they said.
“Our teams are working hard to get passengers on their way as soon as possible – we are putting on five special services to bring people home and booking seats on Qantas flights also.
“The majority of impacted passengers have now been reaccommodated and our teams are working hard to find the remaining 200 or so impacted passengers an alternative option.”
Jetstar’s fleet has been impacted by numerous issues that required engineering work, including a lightning
Jetstar Chief Pilot Jeremy Schmidt said the airline was working hard to accommodate customers.
“We would like to sincerely apologise for this disruption,” he said.
“For those no longer wishing to travel we are offering refunds and for those that require it, accommodation or meal vouchers.”
The airline scheduled 26 flights from Australia to Bali from Monday to Thursday.
Eight return services between Melbourne/Sydney and Denpasar have been cancelled since September 1, creating delays of up to 24 hours.
A Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade spokesperson said they were ready to help any Australians who need assistance.
“The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) is aware of media reports of Jetstar flight cancellations in Bali,” they said.
“DFAT stands ready to offer consular assistance to any Australian citizen should they request it.”

DNV and DSME join hands to develop wind-assisted propulsion system
Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME) and DNV have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to establish energy-saving wind assistance propulsion technology.
Wind-assisted propulsion will be the focus of a major innovation drive between DSME and DNV as part of shipping’s global decarbonization efforts.
Gastech 2022 in Milan saw an MOU signing by Dong-Kyu Choi, Executive Vice President, Head of DSME’s R&D Institute, and Vidar Dolonen, Regional Manager Korea & Japan at DNV Maritime.
Both companies will jointly develop ship wind-assisted propulsion systems, including a rotor sail solution, fuel saving device technology, and will cooperate in promoting future-related businesses.
Primary tasks include DNV’s Type Approval Design Certificate (TADC) and technical support for DSME’s future rotor sail system, and a joint study of a Wind Assisted Propulsion System (WAPS) on deep-sea vessels such as LNG carriers and VLCC.
The rotor sail system is one of the next-generation eco-friendly technologies that use wind power to reduce ship fuel and greenhouse gas emissions. It provides additional thrust to a ship’s propulsion power through aerodynamic forces generated by a rotating cylindrical column (rotor sail) installed on deck.
In March 2021, DSME’s Rotor Sail System had obtained Approval in Principle from DNV. In addition, DSME is in the process of producing a prototype of the full-scale DSME Rotor Sail to perform various tests, and it is scheduled to be completed by the end of October 2022.
DNV provides a range of services related to WAPS, covering classification, certification and advisory. Additionally, DNV has updated its rules and will release enhanced standards ensuring general safety improvements for ships with WAPS.
“Achievements through our continuous cooperation led us to the signing of today’s MOU. DNV’s expertise in WAPS technology will greatly support DSME and the industry’s decarbonization efforts,” said Vidar Dolonen.
Dong-Kyu Choi affirmed, “The rotor sail system is a proven technology. The collaboration with DNV will speed up the realization and commercialization of innovative WAPS technologies.”

BUENOS AIRES – The partner of a man suspected of trying to assassinate Argentine Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner has been arrested by police as investigators tried Monday to determine if the attacker was part of a wider plot.
Brenda Uliarte, the 23-year-old partner of Brazilian suspect Fernando André Sabag Montiel, was arrested Sunday night by Federal Police at a train station in the capital, Buenos Aires, according to images circulated by authorities.
She has not been charged, but officials were trying to determine if she had any role in the Sept. 1 incident in which a man pointed a Bersa 380 pistol at Fernández and pulled the trigger — though the loaded gun did not fire.
Officials also were trying to determine how and why data apparently had been wiped from a cellphone seized from Sabag Montiel when he was caught at the scene.
The apparent assassination attempt has shaken a nation where Fernández has been a central political figure for decades, serving as president from 2007 to 2015 following the term of her late husband, Nestor Kirchner, who took office in 2003.
A judicial source said Uliarte had been present in the area where the foiled attack took place, mixed among hundreds of Fernández's sympathizers who had come to show support at a time she faces trial on corruption allegations. The source spoke on condition of anonymity due to rules governing case secrecy.
Sabag, 35, had lived in Argentina for more than two decades. Local news media have published images from his now-inactivated social media accounts showing him with arms tattooed with Nazi-like symbols.
Investigators say they are trying to determine why the gun did not fire and also to extract information from Sabag Montiel's cellphone. Authorities say it came to Airport Security Police, who are in charge of trying to inspect it, reformatted, as if it had come from the factory.
An informatics investigator, Pablo Rodríguez told the Todo Noticias television channel that when a cellphone is confiscated, police should ensure it can't be accessed externally by turning it off, removing the chip, putting it in airplane mode and leaving it in a bag that protects against external radiati9on.
“But if they didn't do all that, the phone was active and it's possible it could have been reset remotely.”
Security Minister Aníbal Fernández told reporters that police “did not manipulate” the phone. “What they did was collect it, put it in a (protective) Faraday bag and sent it to the court.” | https://www.news4jax.com/news/world/2022/09/05/police-detain-partner-of-argentina-attack-suspect/ | 2022-09-06T00:48:00Z | https://www.news4jax.com/news/world/2022/09/05/police-detain-partner-of-argentina-attack-suspect/ | false | 34 |

- Converting HYDRA into Dragonsteel to craft Dragon Artifact
- Announced the upcoming 'Domination Server' designed for level 90 or higher fighters
SEOUL, South Korea, Sept. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Wemade's masterpiece MMORPG MIR4 updated Dragon Artifact on September 6, a new equipment for increasing power score.

A newly introduced system will allow HYDRA, the game token, to be converted into Dragonsteel. In addition, if Septaria is given to Arcadia Spirit Village NPC, users can obtain a Dragonsteel box.

All series, Sun coach/GM Curt Miller's buzzword has been messy.
He's reiterated in every media availability that the only way his team is going to beat the reigning champions is if they make the game ugly. On Sunday, it got about as ugly as it could without a season-ending injury.

Teachers are prepared to go the extra mile to reintegrate students into the classroom as the new academic term commenced on Monday.
This will be done to tackle the major learning loss students suffered when schools across the country were closed to face-to-face sessions due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
DPI visited various schools along the east bank corridor, where teachers detailed plans, they are implementing to help bring their students up to speed.
Headteacher of Peters Hall Primary, Wonita Henry, expressed delight over the reopening of school, as she highlighted the many plans for her students.
“It’s one of the most amazing things. The children are happy to be out again and the teachers are well prepared. As usual, we do our remedial teaching but this year, we implemented a new system. Where we are working with the slow learners in a separate group, so as to push them over the pass mark to get back into the normal stream.”
At the Diamond Secondary School, 78 per cent of students turned out on the first day. The school’s Graduate Senior Mistress Melisa Gordon said majority of the students were at a disadvantage when classes were held online.
“Even though we embrace technology, we can’t deny the facts that lots of our students are at a disadvantage because of connectivity issues in terms of the internet and getting access to devices to attend classes online. So, I am happy that they came back in school fully, where they can continue learning as they use to before the pandemic,” she pointed out.
To this end, Gordon said teachers will we assisting students after school to ensure they are on the path of success.
“We are taking great initiatives to work with them beyond the call of duty to ensure that they get back at least a high percentage so that they can move forward and go on to be successful. Some of the classes will actually be done after school, we will be working with them giving them extra assignments among other activities.”
Houston Secondary School’s Graduate Headmaster Kevin Williamson shared similar sentiments as he highlighted that majority of the student population are from deprived communities.
“The students would’ve lost a lot during that pandemic period. So, I think the reopening of school and having them in the classroom will help them especially students coming from areas that feed our school. Which is a lot of deprived communities so, what we find is a lot of those students were notengaged on the online classroom and so that absences had a negative impact on them learning. So, bringing them back into the classroom will definitely help them in making them successful for life ahead,” he noted.
Further, the headmaster stated that the school will be implementing the Ministry of Education’s consolidated curriculum to reintegrate over 480 students to face-to face learning.
“It will start off with an assessment, we will check to see where the students are and from there, we will know how far back we have to go to bring them to where they are supposed to be,” he said.
Additionally, Assistant Mistress of Grove Primary School, Annalisa Persaud said “I think it is a great idea to have school reopen because the children have been facing a lot of learning loss. I think they have been missing that and the school experience is very important for them. So, it’s a great initiative to have school open fully.”
To address this growing issue, Persaud said the school will be rolling a new curriculum.
“That curriculum allows us to target each child individually so we are excited to have that work. So, that we can look at each child individually and how well their learning preference will go with the curriculum,” she said.
At present, some 610 students returned to the school for the new term.
Meanwhile, parents who accompanied their children welcomed the reopening.
Nicola Griffith said “well, the online learning at home was hitting him back a little. I believe working at school give him a better reaction with teacher kids, helps him to improve better.”
Another parent, Leah Emmanuel shared similar sentiments.
“It’s more convenient because sometimes you’re home and so busy you don’t have the time to help them fully do their work so it’s more convenient to bring them to school.”
Sharon Thomas said with the reopening of school her child is sure to excel.
“Well, I am glad to come out for the first day at school for September. I am glad my child is entering a new class today and I feel so proud. I know she will do it now because the school open all round and when she brings percentage, she will bring more the next term,” she told DPI.
Safety measures and protocols are still in effect to protect students from COVID-19.

WHIDBEY ISLAND, Wash. — The U.S. Coast Guard suspended the search Monday afternoon for nine people, including a child, who were missing after a floatplane crashed in the waters of Puget Sound northwest of Seattle.
The body of a 10th person, an unidentified female, was recovered by a good Samaritan on Sunday after the crash was reported at 3:11 p.m., Scott Giard, director of the U.S. Coast Guard's search and rescue for the Pacific Northwest, said at a new conference.
Just after noon on Monday, the Coast Guard said it was suspending the search for survivors after "saturating an area" of more than 2,100 square nautical miles (nearly 2,800 square miles or 7,250 square kilometers.
"All next of kin have been notified of this decision," the Coast Guard said on Twitter. "Our hearts go out to the families, loved ones and friends of those who remain missing and the deceased."
The Northwest Seaplanes flight left Friday Harbor, a popular tourist destination in the San Juan Islands, and was headed to Renton Municipal Airport, the company's base, said Coast Guard spokesperson William Colclough.
The plane went down in Mutiny Bay off Whidbey Island, roughly 30 miles (50 kilometers) northwest of downtown Seattle and about halfway between Friday Harbor and Renton, a suburb south of Seattle.
The Coast Guard learned through the seaplane company's owner that two Friday Harbor seaplanes took off Sunday afternoon and the owner was aboard one of the flights, Giard said. The owner told authorities he saw the other plane divert slightly off course and he tried to make radio contact but was unable to.
"Shortly after that, he noticed on his flight tracker that the flight had stopped tracking and notified authorities," Giard said.
Officials received reports that "the aircraft dropped suddenly at a fair amount of speed and hit the water," Giard said. "We don't have any video or pictures of the incident as of this moment."
There was no distress call or distress beacon from the crashing plane, he said. The aircraft has an electronic locating transmitter onboard, but they have not received any transmission, he said.
"That is very typical in times where there is either a hard landing or a crash of an aircraft," he said.
Jon Gabelein of South Whidbey Fire/EMS told KOMO witnesses on the shore reported seeing the plane "nose dive into the water."
Whidbey Island resident Jeff Brewny and his wife were walking their dog Sunday when they heard a loud boom.
"First thought was thunder. It was that loud," he said. "There was no flash like you get with lightning. So, you know, I thought it was a boat exploded. It was that devastating. My dog went crazy."
The National Transportation Safety Board said Monday that they're sending a team of seven to investigate the crash of the DHC-3 Turbine Otter.
The cause of the crash is unknown, authorities said.
Coast Guard searchers found "minimal debris," Giard said. By Monday afternoon, they had only found three to four long and narrow pieces of aluminum, very few personal items, a seat and some small pieces of foam, he said.
Without a clear picture of the actual crash, and not knowing whether it exploded on impact or immediately sank to the sea floor, 150 to 200 feet (45-60 meters) below, it's difficult to know what happened to the plane, he said.
Four Coast Guard vessels, a rescue helicopter and an aircraft had been involved in the extensive search, along with nearby rescue and law enforcement agencies.
Northwest Seaplanes is a family owned business founded by Clyde Carlson, according to the company's website. It has 24-years of "accident and incident free flying," the website said.
The company's business office next to the seaplane dock at the Renton Municipal Airport remained closed behind fencing on Monday. The only visible activity was two people hugging near the front door. The only floatplane at the dock appeared to be a small private Cessna.
A woman who answered the phone early Monday said they're waiting to learn more and are devastated by the crash.
"It's a small crew. Everyone's close," said the woman, who would only give her first name, Michelle. She declined to say more.
The company posted a message on Facebook late Monday saying they were heartbroken.
"We don't know any details yet regarding the cause of the accident," the post said. "We are working with the FAA, NTSB and Coastguard. We have been in communication with the families. We are praying for the families involved, including our pilot and his family."
The Northwest Seaplanes website says its sister company Friday Harbor Seaplanes operates daily flights to and from their Renton base and the San Juan Islands, a scenic archipelago northwest of Seattle that draws tourists from around the world.
Floatplanes, which have pontoons allowing them to land on water, are a common sight around Puget Sound, an inlet of the Pacific Ocean. There are multiple, daily flights between the Seattle area and the San Juan Islands.
These aircraft, which also fly between Seattle and Vancouver, British Columbia, frequently travel over Seattle and land on Lake Washington and on Lake Union, not far from the city's iconic Space Needle.
The airport where the flight was headed Sunday is at the southern tip of Lake Washington, less than 5 miles (8 kilometers) from Seattle. It's located next to a Boeing plant and is best known for where new 737s first hit the sky.
In July, 2020, a De Havilland Beaver operated by Brooke's Seaplanes was on a scenic flight in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, with five passengers and a pilot when it collided with a Cessna 206. Eight people were killed.
In 2019, a midair crash in Alaska between two sightseeing planes killed six people. The Ketchikan-based floatplanes were carrying passengers from the same cruise ship, the Royal Princess, and were returning from tours of Misty Fjords National Monument.

Is Disney taking on Magic: The Gathering with its new card game? - lets discuss on the Dicebreaker Podcast
Plus, is the He-Man RPG in indefinite hiatus?It’s time for a new episode of the Dicebreaker podcast! Wheels, Maddie and Meehan come together to chat about the latest in the tabletop gaming world.
In this episode, Maddie opens up about a seminal Dungeons & Dragons experience – having her first character player die in a game she’s running. After that, Maddie chats some more about D&D, including her disappointment towards the recently released Spelljammer: Adventures in Space which features three, somewhat barebones, books.
The podcasting trio then take a moment to discuss their thoughts on D&D publisher Wizards of the Coast’s currently packed release schedule, as well as the effect it could be having on the quality of its tabletop roleplaying game books. The recent controversy around the inclusion of the backstory behind the Hadozee playable species is also discussed, with the team weighing in on the possibility of a lack of insight, rushed development and diverse writers.
Meehan then chats about playing the likes of Quacks of Quedlinburg, Detective Club and Gloomhaven Digital, as well as having watched several shows such as Mindhunter and Better Call Saul.
Finally, Wheels shows off his fancy new Steam Deck portable video game console and chats about the intriguing mystery book Cain’s Jawbone, alongside yet more of the social deduction decoration game Decorum.
The group then moves on the talk about the latest news, including the recent purchasing of several licensed tabletop RPGs from Fandom by Dire Wolf, the studio behind Clank. The purchase includes the fantasy TRPG Tales of Xadia – which is based on The Dragon Prince animated Netflix series – and an RPG based on He-Man: Masters of the Universe, which may now be in indefinite hiatus.
Eventually, the trio discuss the main topic of this week’s episode – the announcement of the Disney Lorcana trading card game, a new tabletop title from Disney and Ravensburger. Set to be launched properly next autumn, Lorcana looks to be a possible contender to the likes of Magic: The Gathering and will be supported past its initial release date. The team chat about their predictions, thoughts and feelings on Lorcana, as well as something called “hot Woody”.
You can watch the Dicebreaker live every Friday at 2pm on the Dicebreaker YouTube channel. If you can’t make it for the livestream, you can find the podcast on Spotify, iTunes, Stitcher and Google Podcasts. Prefer another player? Head over to the podcast's RSS feed.
