John McEnroe is remembered as one of the most talented — and hotheaded — tennis players of all time. Over the course of his career, he won 155 combined titles — more than any man in the game's modern era. McEnroe says a formative moment of his career happened in New Orleans in 1979, during his third match against Björn Borg, a Swedish champion who was as calm on the court as McEnroe was heated. "I was acting like a jerk for the most part. And he finally motioned up to me and said, 'Come to net,'" McEnroe remembers. McEnroe, who was 20 at the time, expected the older player to chastise him, but instead, Borg put his arm around him and told him to enjoy himself. At first, McEnroe thought his opponent was trying to throw him off. But later he realized that Borg was right. "It made me think, 'Look, just go out and play and do your thing because that's exciting enough and it's going to be awesome,'" he says. Despite Borg's advice, McEnroe remained an often volatile presence on the court. His 2002 autobiography took its name from a famous dispute he had over a line call at his 1981 Wimbledon match against Tom Gullikson, in which McEnroe shouted "You cannot be serious!" when his serve was called out. Looking back now, McEnroe is amused that his words had such staying power: "It's sort of crazy that that phrase that I said once in the first round at Wimbledon in 1981 is still something that I hear every day." But, McEnroe adds, when ESPN revisited the call during a 40th-anniversary piece, Gullikson, acknowledged that the ball had been in — not out. "It took 40 years, but better late than never," McEnroe says. "I appreciated it." McEnroe is the subject of a new Showtime documentary film, McENROE, directed by Barney Douglas. Interview highlights On examining how he plays – using creativity over muscle Antonio Palafox, who was the Mexican player who played on the tour for many years, who taught me the way I played. And he looked at the sport as if it was sort of a geometry class and it was all about putting me in advantageous positions and putting my opponent in difficult positions. And that swirled in my head. It took me probably six, eight years to figure out what he was trying to teach me. But it clicked in and then I realized, 'OK, this is something that I can take advantage of. I'm athletic enough to do what he taught me.' And I think that that was his style of play that suited my personality, because initially when I was a kid, I couldn't do the type of aggressive style of play and the serve-volley and covering the net, that type of game that you don't see much anymore. On what he learned from playing Jimmy Connors at Wimbledon What I did learn as I started playing him more frequently was the intensity and the effort he gave. It was as if every point he played was the last point he was ever going to play, and I had never seen anyone that could do that, that consistently. He's sort of the Rafael Nadal of our time. That intensity and effort alone was intimidating and it was tough to match. I used to play him and I'd go back to the hotel room and I'd look in the mirror after and I go, "Did you try as hard as Jimmy Connors in that match?" And most of the time it felt like I didn't. ... That is the greatest lesson any athlete, I think, could learn, truthfully, is if you can go out there and be able to give that type of effort consistently, that good things are going to happen. There's very few athletes in any sport that are able to go out there with that intensity. I mean, it was a remarkable quality he had. That's why he's still, in my book, one of the all time greats and brought a lot to the game because he played with such ferocity. When he went out there, he wasn't a big guy, but he played like a big guy. On having a reputation of losing his temper on the court First of all, I think that most of the players in the sport of tennis are remarkably well-behaved. I would consider myself more of the average Joe type of guy that goes out there. It's such a frustrating game that I was amazed that people could keep their composure as well as they did. [Jimmy] Connors, for example, I mean, I think he did worse things on the court than I did, with all due respect to him. And [Ilie] Năstase ... There were certain antics that they did that were way beyond the pale, in my book, of what I was doing. I'm not saying I'm some angel, but I'm saying they took it to vulgarity at times, situations where there would be altercations, potentially. Năstase, he was like Jekyll and Hyde, he would be on the court and you'd want to strangle the guy. And then right after the match, he used to call me macaroni. He'd go, "Macaroni. Where are we going to dinner?" And, it was over. So they taught me in a way that it was like what's on the court stays on the court. And so that was like a learning experience. On growing up in a loud household I grew up in Queens. I commuted on the train in the subway to my high school. I was used to a lot of energy. I was very taken aback, actually, when I went to Wimbledon in London for the first time, and I was like, 'Wow, they're so polite here.' I used to kid around, half-kiddingly, it was a loud dinner table. [My father] used to say, "Look, you don't need to yell at the umpire. You don't need to get involved in these altercations. Just go out and play! You're better than them." But ... he didn't even realize he was [yelling] it. ... So it seemed only natural. I grew up in Queens. I commuted on the train in the subway to my high school. I was used to a lot of energy. I was very taken aback, actually, when I went to Wimbledon in London for the first time, and I was like, 'Wow, they're so polite here. This is incredible. They just act so differently.' And I'm sure they felt the same way about me. So to me, it was sort of normal. I was actually sort of taken aback that people were sort of bent out of shape, shall we say. It really surprised me. On losing to Björn Borg in a dramatic tiebreaker at 1980 Wimbledon [I] was aware of something that you only feel a couple of times in your career. ... It just seemed like something amazing and special was going on in that, especially in that four-set tiebreaker, there was an electricity that I never felt before that I wanted more of, and it felt incredible. And then maybe the best part ... [was I] did feel like I came out a winner in that match ultimately because I got respect from other players. I got respect from the fans. And to some extent, even the media was kind to me. They had been pretty brutal at that point. So I felt like I had taken my game and the way I was viewed up a level because of that, but also I realized I'd lost. So it made me hungrier and I think it certainly helped me those next couple of years. On the mental toll the pressure takes on athletes If you look back 40 years ago, I think this has been a problem, particularly for athletes in individual sports. So I think that this is something that's become more to the forefront. In certain ways, I would think it'd be easier because there's so much money. From that aspect, you don't have to worry about, "What am I going to do next?" type of thing. You have the luxury of sort of sitting back and trying to figure out ways where you can enjoy your own sport as much as possible. Naomi Osaka took a different stand and she decided to get more public about it. But to me that's in a way admirable, but in another way, it's kind of the focus is going to be more intense on her when she does play. So I think that that could have been a miscalculation because we all sit and go through that. But it's not necessarily something you want to be the first thing talked about when they talk about you. On playing on champion teams and accepting that his best playing days are behind him There's a phrase this great basketball player back in the '70s used to say, Connie Hawkins, he said, "The older I get, the better I used to be." And that was just unfortunately true with me. And that probably started in my mid to late 20s. So that was extremely hard to sort of have to face up to the fact that for all the effort that I made to try to get my act back together and do things to get me back to the top, I wasn't getting there. ... It got to a stage where I had to accept the fact that I'd sort of dropped a notch, and that was extremely difficult as well. But I sort of considered the situation I was in, and I tried to ... look at the glass half full and realize this: Even though I drop[ped] from one or two in the world ... it was still an incredible way to make a living. On narrating Mindy Kaling's Netflix show Never Have I Ever, about an Indian American teenager navigating the dramas of high school I was at a Vanity Fair Oscar party. I was walking in to take a photograph with [my wife] Patty, and as I was walking in, Mindy was walking out. ... As it turned out, her father, who was [from] India, was a big fan of mine. So somehow she came up with this idea that I should be the alter ego or psychologist or uncle or advisor to her, in essence, what I believe is her story, to a degree. She's a first-generation immigrant from India. ... And at first people are like, "Oh, this will never work. This is crazy." And I remember seeing a review or two a couple of years ago and they're like, "This is crazy, but maybe it could work." And then it did work! So it was sort of gratifying that there's people that come up to me now. I mean, this show is big, bigger outside the U.S. actually, than it is inside. I hear more and more about this and it's sort of ironic that I'm involved in this show about a high school Indian American girl trying to come to grips with growing up in a difficult situation. Although I think a lot of people can relate to the difficulties of trying to have friendships and not feeling overwhelmed in high school.

Not a single minister involved in land scam: Goa CM By IANS | Published: September 6, 2022 10:00 PM 2022-09-06T22:00:04+5:30 2022-09-06T22:10:15+5:30 Panaji, Sep 6 Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant on Tuesday said not a single minister of his Cabinet ... Panaji, Sep 6 Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant on Tuesday said not a single minister of his Cabinet is involved in the land scam, adding he is ready to conduct a transparent inquiry if the Congress gives the documents to SIT. Former All India Congress Committee (AICC) secretary Girish Chodankar on Saturday had claimed that a Cabinet minister in the BJP-led government in Goa is involved in land grabbing and had dared Chief Minister Pramod Sawant to probe the particular case and find out which of his minister is a 'mastermind' behind the illegal practice. "Unnecessarily, he is levelling allegations on our ministers, instead he should give a case to SIT. Not a single minister is involved in the land scam. Newspapers should verify the facts before publishing," Sawant said. "Why he (Chodankar) is showing the case papers (complaint to media), he should give it to SIT. Not a single minister is involved in the scam. Girish Chodankar is showing affidavits to the media, he should give it to SIT. I have trust in my ministers and I am ready to conduct a transparent inquiry," Sawant said. Sawant also said that newspapers should not highlight such "unwanted things". "I have trust in my ministers. No one (Minister) is involved in land scams. I will tell SIT to investigate if Chodankar gives those papers to SIT," he said. According to Congress leader Girish Chodakar, a police complaint in this regard was lodged at the Porvorim police station on July 20 by a person named Sales Francisco Fernades, who holds the power of attorney of the said land. "A complaint was also filed with the vigilance department and the panchayat, but none probed the matter, nor the case was handed over to the SIT," Chodankar had said. The SIT headed by SP (Crime Branch) Nidhin Valsan was formed in July 2022 to look into complaints with regard to illegal land grabbing and conversion. Chodankar had said that if the government fails to act on the complaint filed by Fernades, he will be forced to open another case of land grabbing, in which the same minister is allegedly involved. "The silence of Sawant in this regard is a clear indication that he wants to allow his own 'land-grabber' minister go scot-free," Chodankar had said.

HEILBRONN, Germany, Sept. 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The problem of brand bidding or trademark bidding has been affecting the market for a long time - a couple of years ago an Adthena study showed that up to one third of all queries experienced brand bidding, driven in part, by 50% of advertisers who engage in competitive bidding on pure brand terms. Now brands have learned to fight it more effectively, but according to The Search Monitor 12% of your clicks are lost to competitors who advertise on your branded search keywords. Brand Auditor, an ad fraud monitoring tool by Admitad, shared insights on the most harmful types of brand bidding, based on their work with more than 2,500 brands. The demand for brand bidding monitoring services is ever-increasing. For this reason, Admitad has launched a new version of Brand Auditor - now as a stand-alone product. After a major tech update, this new, cutting-edge version of Brand Auditor is available to any company worldwide. Its key aim is to guard the transparency and quality of traffic that advertisers receive from their partners and traffic specialists - safeguarding advertising budgets and protecting their brands. It spots both violations by partners and the aggressive activities of your competitors as they try to divert and feed off your most loyal and valuable audiences. In addition, its functionality allows users to intercept and block brand bidding attempts on coupon sites. Brand Auditor detects brand bidding attempts in several categories: - Direct brand bidding Secures your brand image with a list of pre-approved and forbidden keywords installed directly into your partner programme, ensuring you only work with the best, trusted publishers. - Landing page brand bidding Sets guidelines that spot, detect and block ad fraudsters attempting to lure valuable traffic away from your resources by using coupon aggregators or promo codes. - Unauthorised brand usage Restricts unapproved partners from using your brand keywords and intellectual property, quickly intercepting any attempts to use them illegally in an ad campaign. - Unauthorised brand usage through CPA Collects detailed reports on publishers that use your keywords across various partner networks, while attracting new customers from the affiliate programmes of your competitors. Intelligent brand bidding monitoring by Brand Auditor has enabled advertisers to filter out hundreds of thousands of orders, protecting their marketing budgets by stopping them from paying undeserved rewards to their affiliate partners. Also, by constantly monitoring competitors for any illegal or malicious activity, many brands working with Brand Auditor have been able to successfully launch their own branded contextual counter-campaigns, protecting their legitimate organic traffic from any encroachments. While other monitoring services are restricted by location, Brand Auditor is available universally - in every country, all around the world. If you are interested in implementing Brand Auditor into your marketing strategy, please contact us on support@admitad.com or through request form on Brand Auditor product page.

Good afternoon, Following are this week's summaries of the Court of Appeal for Ontario for the week of August 29, 2022. In Breen v. Lake of Bays (Township), the Township was found liable to the current owners for negligent inspection of their cottage back in 1989-91. In First National Financial GP Corporation v Golden Dragon Ho 10 Inc., the Court determined that a mortgagee of a closed mortgage does not have a common law right to accelerated interest. The terms of the mortgage govern, and the terms of this mortgage did not provide for accelerated interest in the event of a default by the mortgagor. Other topics included two wrongful dismissal cases and security for costs. We hope everyone had a wonderful Labour Day long weekend.

Prehogan and M. Skrow, for the respondents Keywords: Contracts, Commercial, Share Purchase Agreement, Employment, Interpretation, Wrongful Dismissal, Termination Without Cause, Civil Procedure, Summary Judgment, Constructive Dismissal, Extricable Error, Commercial Reasonableness, Rules of Civil Procedure, Sattva Capital Corp. v. Creston Moly Corp., 2014 SCC 53 facts: The respondents sold all shares of their business, Tapped Network, to the appellants with the price paid partly in shares of the appellants and partly through an earnout mechanism which provided for the payment of up to $1.4 million over the following two years. The appellants agreed to employ two of the respondents for two years to help with the integration of the purchased business into the appellants' existing business. In turn, the respondents were able to continue to manage the operations and maximize their earnout payments. The respondents' employment agreements formed a part of the share purchase agreement ("SPA"). The SPA contained two pertinent provisions to this dispute: 1) an accelerated capital provision which stipulated that if the respondents were terminated without cause after the first anniversary of the closing but before the second, one half of the $1.4 million capital payment would become payable; and 2) where there was an unprofitable quarter, a termination for cause event would be triggered and the respondents could be terminated with cause and without any penalty or impact on the capital payments. On March 31, 2020, the respondents were furloughed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Respondent E, alleged constructive dismissal on April 14, 2020 and two months later the appellants terminated E, claiming it was pursuant to the Unprofitable Quarter Provision. The motion judge granted the respondents' motion for summary judgment. The appellants raised several grounds of appeal. issues: (1) Did the motion judge err in his interpretation of the Unprofitable Quarter Provision in accordance with the "win-win" or "lose-lose" intention of the parties? (2) Did the motion judge err in his interpretation of the Unprofitable Quarter Provision by reading in a provision which required the appellants to explicitly state that it was terminating E's employment for cause? (3) Did the motion judge err by failing to consider whether his interpretation of the SPA was commercially reasonable or gave rise to a commercial absurdity? holding: Appeal dismissed. reasoning: (1) No. The Court did not give effect to any of the appellants' grounds of appeal. The motion judge's interpretation of a contract was entitled to deference in the absence of an extricable error, and there was no such error. The motion judge emphasized that giving effect to the "win-win" purpose of the provision would nullify the clear wording of the contract, which stated "if [the respondents] are terminated without cause..." As the Unprofitable Quarter Provision was not exercised within E's termination, he was not terminated with cause under that provision. Although the appellants attempted to rely on the Unprofitable Quarter Provision to terminate E's employment with cause in June 2020, the motion judge found that E was, as a matter of fact, terminated without cause on March 31, 2020. (2) No. There was no extricable error in the motion judge's interpretation of the Unprofitable Quarter Provision. The motion judge did not read in a provision which required EQ Advertising to explicitly state that it was terminating E's employment for cause. The motion judge identified the employment contract which appended the SPA and contrasted the Unprofitable Quarter Provision which would have been triggered by termination with cause and the Accelerated Provision would have been triggered by a without cause termination. The Court held that it was open to the motion judge to conclude that the SPA required EQ Advertising to terminate E "for cause" to avoid triggering the Accelerated Provision. (3) No. The motion judge did not err by failing to consider the commercial reasonableness of his interpretation of the SPA. The motion judge interpreted the provisions with their purpose in mind and the result was commercially reasonable. Further, the appellants' proposed interpretation of the agreement would have led to commercial absurdity, as their interpretation would result in any termination during an Unprofitable Quarter – whether with or without cause – would not trigger the Accelerated Provision. Bowen v. JC Clark Ltd., 2022 ONCA 614 [Feldman, George and Copeland JJ.A.] Counsel: S.J. Erskine and F. Dickson, for the appellants J.G. Knight and L.J. Freitag, for the respondent Keywords: Contracts, Employment, Interpretation, Implied Terms, Wrongful Dismissal, Termination Without Cause, Damages, Discretionary Bonus, Performance Bonus, Bain v. UBS, 2016 ONSC 5362, aff'd 2018 ONCA 190, Greenberg v. Meffert (1985), 18 D.L.R. (4th) 548 (Ont. C.A.), Chann v. RBC Dominion Securities Inc. (2004), 34 C.C.E.L. (3d) 244 (Ont. S.C.) facts: The appellants were portfolio managers of a hedge fund. The hedge fund was acquired by the respondent in late 2012. As part of the acquisition, the appellants were hired by the respondent as portfolio managers for the fund. They worked at the respondent company from December 3, 2012 until July 16, 2014, when their employment was terminated on a without-cause basis. At the time of their termination the appellants were each given two weeks' salary plus $577 in lieu of notice. The appellants commenced an action against the respondent seeking over $1.3 million in performance fees that they claimed were owed as a term of their employment for the portion of 2014 that they worked before their termination. The trial judge dismissed their claim. The appellants challenged the trial judge's finding that their only entitlement to a percentage of the performance fees of the fund was through a side agreement with MB, the lead portfolio manager of the fund, who had been the owner of the fund prior to its acquisition by the respondent. The side deal involved MB paying the appellants a percentage of the performance fee but was silent as to any entitlement to performance fees. In particular, the appellants challenged the trial judge's finding that they were not entitled to an additional 30% of performance fees of the fund pursuant to employment agreements with the respondent. They also challenged the trial judge's ruling that they were not entitled to argue their entitlement to a discretionary bonus under a specific term in their employment agreements because the claim was insufficiently pleaded. issues: (1) Did the trial judge err in finding that the appellants were not entitled to a percentage of the performance fees of the fund as an implied term of their employment agreements? (2) Did the trial judge err in refusing to consider the appellants' claim that they were entitled to a discretionary bonus under their employment agreements on the basis that the claim was insufficiently pleaded and argued? holding: Appeal allowed in part. reasoning: (1) No. The Court agreed with the trial judge's finding that the appellants were aware of the arrangement that they would be paid a share of the performance fees of the fund through MB, rather than directly by the respondent, at the time that they signed their employment agreements. A plain reading of the employment agreements signed by the appellants, in the circumstances known to the parties at the time, revealed that the performance fees were not owed to the appellants by the respondent under the terms of those agreements. The Court held that the appellants agreed to the terms as characterized by the respondent – they had knowledge that they would be paid a share of the performance fees only through MB, and possessing this knowledge, they signed the employment agreements that did not provide for any performance fees to be paid by the respondent to the appellants. The Court concluded that the trial judge's findings were neither unfair nor inconsistent with industry practice. It was not relevant that other portfolio managers were paid performance fees on a 40/30/30 formula. The appellants were paid a share of the performance fees of the fund; however, the manner of their payment was structured differently because the fund that the appellants managed had recently been acquired and because of the structure of that acquisition. Accordingly, the appellants were not entitled to a share of performance fees of the fund directly from the respondents. (2) Yes. The Court found that the trial judge erred in refusing to allow the appellants to argue their entitlement to a discretionary bonus under the employment agreements. In the Court's view, the issue was sufficiently pleaded in the amended statement of claim and was sufficiently raised in the submissions and evidence at trial. Although the respondent objected at trial and maintained its objection on appeal, the Court was not persuaded that there was any unfairness to the respondent in allowing the appellants to advance their claim to a discretionary bonus. The Court stated that the amended statement of claim could have been clearer. However, the pleadings and the positions taken at trial made clear that the appellants were seeking not only a percentage of the performance fees of the fund, but also whatever discretionary bonus they were entitled to under paragraph 5 of the employment agreements. The Court then went on to consider the quantum of discretionary bonus the appellants were entitled to. The Court rejected the respondent's position that the employment agreement allowed for a totally unconstrained level of discretion when determining such bonuses and accepted the appellants' position that the discretionary bonus amounts should be calculated based on those bonuses given to similarly situated employees. The Court held that to the extent that evidence asserted an unconstrained discretion on the respondent with respect to awarding bonuses, it was inconsistent with the obligation to exercise that discretion in a fair and reasonable manner. Accordingly, the Court picked two similarly situated employees, and found their bonuses had been in the realm of $200,000. The Court held that in light of the evidence that the discretionary bonuses were awarded based on corporate performance, individual performance, and considering that it was clear that the respondent allocated significant sums to discretionary bonuses for portfolio managers for the 2014 year; and considering the remarkable returns of the fund for the period in 2014 when the appellants were still managing the fund, the appellants were entitled to a bonus pro-rated for the seven months the appellants worked in 2014. The awarded bonus was therefore $115,000. Di Nunzio v. Di Nunzio, 2022 ONCA 618 [Hoy J.A. (Motion Judge)] Counsel: M. S. Deverett, for the moving party/the respondents B. D. Arkin and T. Nguyen, for the responding party/the applicant Keywords: Civil Procedure, Appeals, Security for Costs, Rules of Civil Procedure, r.61.06(1)(a) and (c), Vout v. Hay, [1995] 2 S.C.R. 876, Pickard v.

Jones, [1916] 53 S.C.R. 431, Politzer v. Metropolitan Homes Ltd., [1976] 1 S.C.R. 363 facts: The respondent brought a motion for an order requiring the appellant to post $25,000 for security for costs of an appeal and $111,395.45 for costs of an application, within 30 days, failing which the appeal be dismissed. In the alternative, the respondent requested a declaration that there was no mutuality of remedies, together with an order that the appellant must elect, within 30 days of the order, to either relinquish their claims for costs or post the security for costs. The respondent relied on r. 61.06(1)(a) and (c) of the Rules of Civil Procedure. issues: (1) Did the respondent meet the threshold requirements under r. 61.06(1)(a) or (c) to obtain an order for security for costs of the appeal? holding: Motion dismissed. reasoning: (1) No. R. 61.06(1)(a) and (c) provide as follows: (1) In an appeal where it appears that, (a) there is good reason to believe that the appeal is frivolous and vexatious and that the appellant has insufficient assets in Ontario to pay the costs of the appeal; ...; or (c) for other good reason, security for costs should be ordered, a judge of the appellate court, on motion by the respondent, may make such order for security for costs of the proceeding and of the appeal as is just. The motion judge found that the threshold requirement of r. 61.06(1)(a) or (c) were not made out. With respect r. 61.06(1)(a), the Court reiterated that a frivolous appeal is one that is readily recognizable as devoid of merit: Pickard v. London Police Services Board, 2010 ONCA 643, at para. 19; York University v. Markicevic, 2015 ONCA 651, at paras. 32, 33. The Court held that the appellant's appeal of their mother's will was not readily recognizable as devoid of merit and that there was no obvious bad faith motivation. The Court noted that a low chance of success is not in itself sufficient to find an appeal vexatious. With respect r. 61.06(1)(c), the Court held that the respondent's novel argument of "lack of mutuality", essentially asserting that the disparity in financial resources or circumstances of the parties constitutes 'for other good reason' to grant security for costs was not accepted and would significantly broaden the scope of r. 61.06(1).

Defence Construction (1951) Ltd., [1999] 1 S.C.R. 619 facts: Golden Dragon Ho 10 Inc. ("GDH 10") and Golden Dragon Ho 11 Inc. ("GDH 11") owned two adjoining residential apartment buildings at 345 Barber Street and 347 Barber Street in Ottawa (the "Properties"). GDH 10 owned 347 Barber (an affordable housing complex) and GDH 11 owned 345 Barber. The Properties were interconnected, sharing among other things, a lobby and an elevator, and for all intents and purposes could not be sold separately. GDH 10 and GDH 11 (collectively "Golden Dragon") had purchased the Properties in May 2016, and assumed from First National ("FN") three closed commercial mortgages that had been granted to FN in 2007 and 2008 by the previous corporate owner of the Properties: a first mortgage secured over 345 Barber Street; a first mortgage secured over 347 Barber Street; and a second mortgage secured over 347 Barber Street (collectively, the "FN Mortgages"). The FN Mortgages were 20-year closed commercial mortgages, and the principal amounts totalled approximately $7.5 million. The FN Mortgages precluded subsequent mortgages over the Properties without FN's consent. However, without FN's knowledge or consent, on August 19, 2016, Golden Dragon granted to Liahona Mortgage Investment Corporation ("Liahona") a second mortgage over 345 Barber Street in the principal amount of $2,900,000.00. (the "Liahona second mortgage"). Golden Dragon defaulted under the Liahona Second Mortgage shortly after it was granted. In April 2017, Liahona issued a notice of sale, and obtained a default judgment in June 2017 for approximately $ 3 million, together with judgment for possession of 345 Barber Street. Beginning in June 2017, the FN Mortgages went into unremedied default. In August 2017, FN made a formal demand that Golden Dragon pay the arrears, and cure the non-monetary defaults under the FN Mortgages. FN commenced an application to appoint Deloitte Restructuring Inc. ("Deloitte") as the interim receiver of the Properties, as the defaults had been caused by Golden Dragon attempting to convert the Properties into student housing without FN's consent, and running out of funds to complete the renovations. The Order issued September 22, 2017 appointing Deloitte as Interim Receiver (the "Appointment Order") included a term that FN "shall be deemed to be protecting its security, shall not be deemed to have resorted to realizing upon its security over the [Properties], and the equitable right of redemption in respect of the Applicant's mortgages over the [Properties] shall not be triggered". By December 2018, Deloitte had repaired and stabilized the Properties. Following stabilization of the Properties, the rents being collected by Deloitte were sufficient to pay its costs, as well as the payments owed under the FN Mortgages, but there would be no excess cashflow from the Properties to make any payments to Liahona for many years. Liahona, whose second mortgage was only over 345 Barber, inquired of FN whether it would consent to Liahona bringing a motion expanding the Appointment Order to allow a sale by Deloitte of both Properties. FN, which was still owed approximately $1.8 million in future interest, agreed on certain conditions, including that Liahona's Order expanding the Appointment Order (the "Expanded Powers Order") contain the same term as the Appointment Order that FN "shall be deemed to be protecting its security, shall not be deemed to have resorted to realizing upon its security over the [Properties], and the equitable right of redemption in respect of the Applicant's mortgages over the [Properties] shall not be triggered". Liahona brought its motion and obtained the Expanded Powers Order on May 21, 2019. Deloitte eventually secured an offer for purchase, but on the Sale Approval and Vesting Order Motion, FN opposed the motion to approve the sale of the Properties when Liahona alleged that the future interest owing under the FN Mortgages was not payable. FN argued that its agreement to have Deloitte sell the Properties was premised on it receiving, from the sale proceeds, payment of future interest to the end of the terms of its closed FN Mortgages, which it referred to as "yield maintenance penalties". FN submitted that, if it was precluded from receiving the yield maintenance penalties, it wished to maintain its mortgages in place until the end of their terms or until the properties were sold by Golden Dragon. The judge on the Sale Approval and Vesting Order Motion allowed the sale of the Properties, and directed a trial on whether future interest under the FN Mortgages was payable. The issue at trial was "whether the terms of the FN charges over the Properties entitle FN to the Yield Maintenance claimed as a result of the early repayment of its charges." The trial judge found that FN had a common law entitlement to accelerated interest; therefore, FN was entitled to be paid a prepayment of accelerated interest on the FN Mortgages, calculated in accordance with the yield maintenance formula as defined in the FN Mortgages. Furthermore, the common law anti-deprivation rule did not apply because FN's claim to accelerated interest stemmed from a common law rule rather than a contractual term. Liahona and Golden Dragon appealed the common law entitlement to accelerated interest and the imputation of the implied contractual term into the FN Mortgages that entitled FN to accelerated interest. Golden Dragon also appealed from the order approving the court-appointed receiver's costs (the "costs order"), arguing that those costs were unwarranted because the receiver's attendance at trial was not necessary. issues: (1) Did the trial judge err in finding that FN had a common law entitlement to accelerated interest under the FN Mortgages? (2) Did the trial judge err by implying a contractual term into the FN Mortgages that entitled FN to accelerated interest? (3) Did the trial judge err in awarding costs to the Receiver? holding: Appeal allowed in part. reasoning: (1) Yes. The trial judge erred in his application of the relevant legal principles and failure to interpret the mortgage contracts in their entirety. Instead of completing the requisite contractual analysis of the FN Mortgage terms, the trial judge considered FN's claim only as a common law claim for accelerated interest without regard to and divorced from all of the relevant provisions of the FN Mortgages. It was an error to find that there is a standalone common law entitlement, divorced from the contractual provisions of the mortgage contract, to accelerated interest for a mortgagee under a closed mortgage. The Court of Appeal held that there is no standalone common law principle that can be applied independently of a holistic interpretation of the particular mortgage contract in issue. Any rights flow from the contract. The Court noted that the common law recognizes contractual rights bargained for by the parties and stated that the trial judge should have looked at all the terms of the FN Mortgages before turning to the common law. This is because the FN Mortgages did include clauses providing for early discharge, and FN's entitlements, both in the event Golden Dragon was not in default, and in the event that it was and the mortgages were discharged from title. The former included FN's entitlement to accelerated interest in the defined form of "yield maintenance" where Golden Dragon was not in default; the latter provided only for payment of principal and accrued interest owed up to default, but no accelerated interest. The Court noted that the mortgage terms that entitled FN to accelerate the principal amounts outstanding upon any default by Golden Dragon did not provide for any entitlement to accelerated interest in the event of any default by Golden Dragon. Rather, the only interest to which FN bargained an entitlement on Golden Dragon's default is the interest accrued to the date of default. The Court further stated that these provisions specifically addressed the circumstances of the early discharge of the FN Mortgages upon Golden Dragon's default but did not include accelerated interest, and instead provide only for principal, accrued interest to the date of default, and costs. Accordingly, the contractual provisions distinguished this case from those referenced by the trial judge that dealt only with a mortgagee's entitlement on the early discharge of closed mortgages with no similar contractual provisions as in this case before the Court. The Court found that the trial judge erred by failing to address these provisions and considering their effect. (2) Yes. The Court of Appeal found that implying a term was an error because it was inconsistent with the express terms of the FN Mortgages and, it was not necessary to give the FN Mortgages business efficacy. The Court rejected FN's policy concerns that acceding to Liahona's arguments would render closed commercial mortgages a fiction, and that it would allow a mortgagor with a closed mortgage to avoid its obligations under the closed mortgage by granting a second mortgage and then defaulting to allow the second mortgagee to appoint a receiver, or alternatively that it would permit secured obligations under a closed mortgage to be avoided by way of bankruptcy. The Court held that this case involved the interpretation of specific contractual terms agreed upon by the parties. As a result, this outcome is tied to the specific facts of this case and the parties' specific mortgage agreements, as well as the manner in which the trial of the issue was defined. FN's submissions in this regard were rejected as amounting to a speculative "floodgate" argument. (3) No. Golden Dragon did not raise any objection to Deloitte's attendance until making costs submissions. The Court agreed with the trial judge that the time for such a discussion was prior to the trial of the issues. Moreover, the Court of Appeal agreed with the trial judge's conclusion that Deloitte's presence was warranted, as it was in keeping with its role as an officer of the court in these receivership proceedings.

Clements, 2012 SCC 32, Allen M. Linden et al, Canadian Tort Law, 12th ed. (Markham, Ont.: LexisNexis, 2022) facts: In 1989, the respondents, EB and JB, purchased a cottage in the Township of the Lake of Bays (the "Township"). A building permit was issued for the cottage in 1989, and construction took place between 1989 and 1991. In this time, the Township's chief building inspector conducted three inspections, none of which noted deficiencies. The Township considered the project closed in 1993. Upon purchase, the respondents obtained a home inspection report, which noted some minor cracks in the foundation and decay in the structural elements. It further attributed some water infiltration to drainage issues at the rear of the cottage, which the respondents remedied. In 2012, the respondents planned an addition to the cottage. However, an engineer's report revealed significant issues with the building, including serious water infiltration and structural issues. The respondents claimed that these issues should have been flagged before the Township issued a building permit. The trial judge found that the Township had breached its duty of care to the respondents, and that it had failed to meet the appropriate standard of care in a number of respects. He further found that a number of the respondents' damages were caused by the Township's negligence. Damages were awarded in the amount of $361,875.33. The Township argued that the trial judge applied a standard of care that amounted to strict liability. Furthermore, the Township argued that the trial judge committed both extricable errors of law and palpable and overriding errors of fact. issues: (1) Did the trial judge err by finding that the Township owed the respondents a duty to inspect without a request from the builder? (2) Did the trial judge err by imposing the burden of proof on the Township to prove that the building permit was properly issued? (3) Did the trial judge err by applying an excessively strict standard of care? (4) Did the trial judge err in finding that the Township's breaches of its duty of care caused the respondents to suffer damages for which the Township was responsible? holding: Appeal allowed in part. reasoning: (1) No. The Township argued that it could not be faulted for failing to conduct a final inspection because it was not legislatively required to do so. The relevant inspections did not become a requirement until Bill 124 was passed in 2001, which amended the Building Code Act. Even though the inspection was not mandatory, the trial judge found that the Township owed a duty of care to not negligently exercise its power to grant a building permit and conduct proper inspections. The trial judge did not err in this analysis. As subsequent purchasers, the respondents were entitled to rely on the Township to show reasonable care in inspection of the progress of the construction. In light of the purpose of the Building Code Act, which is public safety, anything less than this entitlement would render the building permit and inspection process meaningless. Therefore, the Township breached the standard of care when it declared the construction of the cottage closed without conducting further inspections. (2) No. Building plans are required to issue a building permit. At trial, the Township could not introduce these plans into evidence because they were allegedly destroyed in a fire. The Court held that the finding of the trial judge that the plans did not exist did not equate to the burden of proof being on the Township. It was simply a finding of fact based on ample evidence, and the Township did not show palpable and overriding error. (3) No, except with respect to the stairs and insulation. The trial judge found the Township liable for five major deficiencies. With two exceptions, the Court held that the trial judge properly analyzed these deficiencies in light of the ordinary and reasonably prudent building inspector to determine whether they should have been noticed. This was not an overly strict standard of care. However, with respect to the stairs and insulation, the Court held that the standard of care applied by the trial judge was too exacting. The trial judge faulted the Township for failing to discover every latent defect. In doing so, he raised the negligence threshold from unreasonable conduct to imperfect conduct. This was an extricable error of law. (4) No. The Township argued that waiving the final inspection was unreasonable, and liability for the defects that would have been found fell on the respondents. The Court agreed with the trial judge in not giving effect to this argument. The Court further held that any earlier final inspection would have made no material difference in calculating damages since causation was only determined to exist for costs to remedy and rectify Building Code violations, and an earlier inspection would not have found fewer deficiencies. Therefore, the trial judge did not err in his causation analysis. H.M.B. Holdings Limited v. Antigua and Barbuda, 2022 ONCA 630 [Fairburn A.C.J.O., Thorburn and Favreau JJ.A.] Counsel: L. Caylor, N.

The Queen, [1985] 2 S.C.R. 278, Janet Walker, Castel & Walker: Canadian Conflict of Law, loose-leaf (2020-Rel. 82-9), 6th ed., Vol. 1 (Toronto: LexisNexis Canada Inc., 2021) facts: The respondent, the Attorney General of Antigua and Barbuda ("Antigua"), expropriated property owned by the appellant, HMB Holdings Ltd. ("HMB"), located in Antigua and Barbuda and the Privy Council awarded compensation of approximately US$26.6 million plus interest for the expropriation. Antigua paid part, but not all, of the compensation amount. HMB subsequently brought an action in British Columbia ("BC") to recognize and enforce the Privy Council judgment. Antigua did not defend the action and HMB obtained a default judgment recognizing and enforcing the Privy Council judgment in BC. HMB brought an application to enforce the judgment in Ontario pursuant to the Reciprocal Enforcement of Judgments Act and was unsuccessful at first instance, before the Court of Appeal and before the Supreme Court. HMB then commenced an action in the Ontario Superior Court to recognize and enforce the BC Judgment in Ontario pursuant to the common law. The motion judge dismissed the action in Ontario on the basis that there was no real and substantial connection between BC and the underlying action in Antigua and Barbuda. issues: (1) Did the motion judge err in dismissing HMB's action to recognize and enforce the BC Judgment in Ontario at common law? holding: Appeal dismissed. reasoning: (1) No. It was an error in principle for the motion judge in this case to focus on whether there was a real and substantial connection between BC and the original dispute in Antigua and Barbuda, or between BC and the parties, for the purpose of deciding whether the BC Judgment should be recognized and enforced in Ontario. The Court held that this approach did not accord with the original focus of the BC court's inquiry of whether the Privy Council Judgment should be recognized and enforced in BC. The Court noted that while there are a handful of cases where Canadian courts have permitted ricochet judgments, those cases do not directly address the court's legal authority for doing so at common law. Generally, the common-law test for the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments does not contemplate the viability of ricochet judgments between Canadian provinces. In Beals v. Seldanha, the court confirmed that the real and substantial connection test applies to the process by which Canadian courts may recognize and enforce judgments by courts in foreign jurisdictions. More recently, in Chevron Corp. v. Yaiguaje, the SCC reaffirmed that the real and substantial connection test applies to the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments by Canadian courts: the enforcing court has jurisdiction over the defendant as long as there was effective service on the defendant against whom recognition and enforcement is sought, as the role of the enforcing court is to facilitate enforcement. The Supreme Court's discussion in Chevron regarding the difference between an original foreign judgment and a recognition and enforcement judgment is the key to determining whether a court in Ontario should recognize and enforce the BC Judgment at common law. When the court in BC granted the BC Judgment, it decided that the Privy Council Judgment should be recognized and enforced in BC in accordance with its laws; it did not decide whether the Privy Council Judgment should be enforced in any other jurisdiction. At this stage, the focus is on whether the enforcing court should allow recognition and enforcement of the foreign judgment in its local jurisdiction. As between BC and Ontario, the issue of comity does not arise when considering whether a court in Ontario should enforce the BC Judgment. Comity encourages enforcing courts to show respect for judgments from other jurisdictions. However, comity also gives due regard to the legislative choices within the enforcing jurisdiction. The Court held that in the present case, had the recognition and enforcement of the original foreign judgment been sought in Ontario, Antigua would have been able to rely on the Ontario Limitations Act, 2002 as a defence, as the two-year limitation period in Ontario had lapsed by the time the application was brought in BC, where there is a ten-year limitation period. Whether recognition and enforcement should proceed depends entirely on the enforcing forum's laws. HMB argued that it should not be precluded from seeking sequential recognition and enforcement in other jurisdictions when the first judgment does not yield sufficient assets. In doing so, HMB argued it should not be subject to the limitation period being connected to the initial judgment but rather it should be attached to the most recent judgment. However, allowing the appellant to proceed as it desires could enable it to extend the applicable limitation period. This improperly circumvents Ontario's legislative choice to have a two-year limitation period and deprives the respondent of a legitimate defence that it would otherwise have in Ontario. If HMB were to pursue a common-law action for direct recognition and enforcement of the Privy Council Judgment in Ontario, it would be for the court in that context to decide the limitation period issue, including whether discoverability may play a role in deciding that issue. At this stage, the court found that the BC judgment should not be recognized and enforced in Ontario, as the common-law test for recognition and enforcement of original foreign judgments does not apply to ricochet judgments. The issue of whether the Reciprocal Enforcement of Judgments Act permits the registration of recognition and enforcement judgments (ricochet judgments) from other provinces was not at issue on this appeal, and was not decided. In any event, the decisions that suggest this is permissible has no applicability to the issue of whether one province should recognize and enforce a ricochet judgment from another province at common law.

JACKSON, Miss (AP) — While its water crisis continued, students in Mississippi’s capital were able to return to class for the first time in a week Tuesday with assurances that the toilets and sinks in their buildings would finally work. Jackson remained under a boil water advisory, but the drop in water pressure that had brought the system to near collapse appeared to be resolved, officials said. An employee at Jackson Public Schools’ central office confirmed over the phone Tuesday that schools had re-opened after a drop in water pressure forced a move to virtual instruction. In a statement posted to Twitter on Monday, the school district said it had “checked water pressure at each school” and found that “nearly all are suitable” for students and staff to return. The school district said one high school in south Jackson still didn't have adequate water pressure. Torrential rains and flooding of the Pearl River in late August exacerbated problems at one of Jackson’s two treatment plants, leading to a drop in pressure throughout the city. “We are still experiencing low water pressure at Forest Hill High School. We are working on a contingency plan for (students) and staff who attend Forest Hill that will allow them to report to alternate sites for instruction,” the statement reads. In a Monday news conference, Gov. Tates Reeves said water distribution at schools would be scaled down in preparation for students' return to campuses. “We are moving those resources to our other water distribution mega-sites,” Reeves said. “Those sites have slowed down in demand a bit, but we have still put out about 5 million bottles of water over the last several days.” Soon after water stopped flowing through the pipes of many households throughout Jackson, officials rolled a tanker into Forest Hill's parking lot for water distribution. Santiago Matthews, a maintenance worker for the high school, had a garbage container filled to the brim with water last week to fill toilets for the staff working inside. He hauled the garbage container up a short incline back to the high school with water sloshing over the sides. Reeves said Monday that the city had "zero water tanks at low levels.” He also said repairs resulting in cleaner water do not eliminate every risk. “There may be more bad days in the future,” Reeves said. ___ Michael Goldberg is a corps member for the Associated Press/Report for America Statehouse News Initiative.

Scotland introduces rent freeze to tackle soaring costs LONDON (AP) — Scotland’s leader says she will bring in emergency legislation to introduce an immediate rent freeze to protect tenants as part of measures to tackle the U.K.‘s cost-of-living crisis. First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said the emergency law will “give people security about the roof over their head this winter through a moratorium on evictions.” It will also include measures to deliver a rent freeze for tenants in both the private and public rental markets. She added that the measure means that rents in Scotland will be frozen from Tuesday until at least March 2023. Rail fares in Scotland will also not rise during the same period, Sturgeon said. Her statement coincided with the appointment of Liz Truss as the U.K.’s new prime minister.

Zwift has today launched a new £449 smart trainer, the Zwift Hub, which is available for pre-order now and will go on sale on 3rd October. We’ve got all the facts and figures about the new trainer, and also a unit for review: we’ll be posting our full review when the Hub is available for sale. If you've been following Zwift news this year, then you might be thinking, “Hang on a minute! Didn't they announce a Tron bike and then bury it a few months later? I thought they weren't making trainers anymore?” Well you're half right: that did happen. But in the background there was always another smart trainer project going on and the Zwift Hub trainer is the culmination of that. To fully understand why Zwift has come to market with this particular trainer we have to dive into what happens when people sign up to Zwift. Talking to the folks at Zwift, it's clear that the biggest obstacle to getting up and running is the hardware that you need. There's a lot of choice, and often a certain level of technical knowledge is also assumed, like pulling a cassette off your bike and getting it on the trainer. A lot of people won’t have the tools for that, or, frankly, the desire. Every month there are, apparently, a huge number of people who sign up for the Zwift training app and never actually log a ride. The hub trainer is designed to be as easy to set up as possible so that anyone with any bike can get onto the platform simply and cheaply. Relatively speaking, anyway. Zwift isn’t concentrating on the numbers for this launch: it’s more about the simplicity. But since we like numbers, and Zwift supplied them with the launch material, it's worth diving into a few stats about the Hub trainer. For your £449, you're getting a genuine direct drive smart trainer with acclaimed accuracy of +/-2.5%. It has a maximum resistance of 1800W and can simulate a gradient of 16%. For the money, those are very good numbers. It's got a 4.7kg flywheel and is ANT+ FEC and Bluetooth FTMS controllable so it will work with pretty much anything you can run Zwift on. On top of that, it can also act as a Bluetooth or ANT+ heart rate monitor bridge so that you can transmit your heart rate data via the trainer and save a Bluetooth channel if you're running Zwift on your Apple TV. Because it's a Zwift product, the calibration, firmware updates and heart rate bridge functionality will all be available through the Zwift apps. At the moment you have to do a spin-down calibration for the Hub trainer but Zwift says it’s working on making it calibration-free in a later update. If you're a smart trainer aficionado then you might be thinking that this new Zwift Hub Trainer looks a lot like JetBlack’s Volt smart trainer, and you'd be right: Zwift has been working with JetBlack to develop this unit and a lot of the hardware is shared. JetBlack had some frame compatibility issues with the Volt trainer, and Zwift was really keen to make sure that the hub fitted as many bikes as possible. To that end, they've had prototype hub trainers with bike mechanics over the past year and each bike that has come in for service has been offered up to the trainer. Zwift is really confident that the Hub trainer will fit pretty much any bike that you'll throw at it: they've had it working with over 500 bikes from 70 brands and frame sizes from 45cm to 64cm. The Hub trainer comes with a cassette pre-installed. That’s not uncommon, but what is unique here is that at the checkout you can choose anything from an 8-speed to a 12 speed cassette. So once your trainer arrives in its box, it's basically ready to go once you bolt it together. But Zwift has done a lot of thinking around the setup process and there are quite a few nice little touches once you crack open your carton to make the process as straightforward as possible. Firstly, there's a QR code on the side and that takes you to a page where you can access a whole load of videos about the different aspects of the setup. So if there's anything that you don't understand, you should be able to get help there. The trainer comes in three main parts and the legs are colour-coded with the base so that you can make sure you get everything in the right place. You can follow the steps in the instructional video, and for nearly everyone it's going to be a fairly simple job. One of the main issues with getting a bike on a trainer is axle standards, and Zwift has produced some clever axle end cards that are also colour coded. They have a ruler section you can use to check the distance between your dropouts so that you can make sure you're running the right bits, the right way round. Again, if you're unsure of what you're doing then the instructional videos that Zwift has produced will set you right. We’ve already put some miles into the Zwift Hub trainer, but unfortunately we're still waiting for a firmware upgrade that will fix a slight issue with the power readings: at the moment the trainer is reading slightly under, although by the time the trainer is on sale in October, these teething problems should have been ironed out and we'll have a full review on road.cc for you to read on the day the trainer goes on sale. In terms of ride feel, however, the trainer is really good. At £449 you're getting a really capable direct drive smart trainer with a comparable feel to units that in many cases cost quite a bit more. The trainer is quick to react to changes in gradient, and the flywheel is heavy enough to keep your pedal action smooth as the resistance alters over the terrain. It's a very quiet trainer too. If you’re into working out then ERG mode works very well. The hub trainer reacts well to the interval changes and ramps up power quickly, but not too quickly; it’s about right. Holding a steady power was no trouble at all. If you’re into racing then the hub trainer is certainly capable of dealing with the cut and thrust of a bunch sprint; it's not especially heavy, but it feels very stable when you're out of the saddle. Heavier riders might find that the maximum resistance is a little lacking on the flat in a dash for the line, but overall it's a very competent trainer. Is it the easiest trainer to get set up on Zwift with? Well, there's no doubt that Zwift has put a lot of time and effort into making things as straightforward as possible. And the fact that you can spec the correct cassette for your bike at the point of purchase means there's one less thing to worry about when it lands on your doorstep. Also, the fact that the trainer’s functionality will be baked into the Zwift environment means that you're likely to have a more seamless experience. I really like what zwift has done with the end caps and the measuring cards too, that will make a tricky job for less technically savvy people a lot easier. There's a bit of spannering to do, but really anyone should be able to get this trainer up and running in about 15 minutes, and that won’t really change much if you’re on a 12-speed, through-axle, disc brake gravel bike or an old 9-speed racer. It’s too early to give a proper verdict on the Zwift Hub at this point: we need more miles on it, and we’re waiting for the firmware updates to tweak the power readings. We’ll get some serious miles in over the next month or so. Stay tuned for a full review... Help us to fund our site We’ve noticed you’re using an ad blocker.

NEW YORK (AP) — Rents are starting to come down after spiking to record levels this past summer, but experts are uncertain if the slowdown will continue. Christopher Mayer, professor of real estate at Columbia Business School, said people looking for an apartment now might have a better experience than they did in May or June. “We’re not seeing rents go up as quickly, the rental market is softening a little bit,” he said. The national median asking rent was up 14% in July over July the previous year, the smallest annual increase since November 2021, according to a new report from Redfin. While that percentage is still high, it has decreased from 15% in June and 16% in May. Experts say the market could slow further toward the end of the year, but there’s still a lot of uncertainty. “I would not be surprised if we get to 2023 before things really get back to normal,” said Brian Carberry, senior managing editor of Rent.com, an apartment search website owned by Redfin. Much depends on where you live. Cities in Florida such as Boca Raton and West Palm Beach have seen rents decrease -0.1% and -0.5% respectively compared to last month. But according to Apartment List, rents in California coastal cities such as San Diego have continued to increase over the past year. In Rochester, N.Y., rent was up 15.3% in August over the same month the previous year, according to data from Apartment List. An average two-bedroom apartment in the Rochester area was $1,318 in August, compared with $1,116 a year ago. Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan said high rents are a concern because they can account for a big chunk of a household's take-home pay. “Gas prices are coming back down, but rents are going up 10, 12, 15%. And rent can end up taking 40% of these households’ income,” Moynihan said in a recent Associated Press interview. While things are looking a bit better for renters than a few months ago, it's still a landlords' market, Mayer said. If your lease is up, staying put and negotiating with your landlord might be a better option than trying to move, at least until the rental market slows down further, said Paula Munger, assistant vice president for industry research and analysis at the National Apartment Association. "When you renew your lease, you’re definitely not paying the same as someone new moving in," Munger said. “If you can, stay in your apartment.” A major reason for rent spikes has been increasing demand from people priced out of a booming housing market. That market is starting to slow, which could mean more people can afford to buy and won't need to rent, but with interest rates rising, some may not want to take on mortgages. “With inflation now all throughout the market, there’s not enough supply so the prices are going up," Munger said. “That’s the downside for people, just not having enough options and choices for what they would like in a housing unit.” That was the experience of Erika Tascon, a 22-year-old Los Angeles resident who was living with roommates but wanted to find an apartment with her boyfriend. After visiting more than 10 units, the couple picked a 500-square-foot one-bedroom apartment in Beverly Hills where they pay $2,750 per month. The median rent for a one-bedroom in the area is $2,773, up 14% from last year, according to data from Zumper. “I think landlords are taking advantage of tenants right now,” said Tascon, who is paying $200 more per month than for her previous apartment. In Britni Eseller’s case, the high demand meant that she had to rush to fill out her application to beat the other 10 people who toured the apartment she wanted. “Because everyone is in scarcity mode, you’re willing to find a place that might be somewhat affordable and you’re unfortunately okay with overlooking chipped floors or a broken appliance,” said Eseller, who lives in North Park, a neighborhood of San Diego. Developers have ramped up construction of apartment buildings this year, which could eventually help to ease the crunch. But it's likely to take a while before that's reflected in the market. Meanwhile, high rents are disproportionately hurting low-income residents across the country, said Ben Martin, research director of Texas Housers, a non-profit organization that works on housing justice. In May, rental prices in Dallas and Fort Worth were up 21.6% from last year, according to Redfin data. In Austin they were up 48.4%. One major reason is that high-income people from coastal areas like California and New York moved to Texas during the coronavirus pandemic, when they realized they could work remotely and live more cheaply. In December of last year, for example, Tesla moved its headquarters from Silicon Valley to Austin. “People who make the lowest incomes are paying more of their total pie of money," Martin said. “Which means that they don’t have money for anything else: school supplies, groceries, gas, clothing, all of the essential stuff that you need to live.” In addition to cutting basic expenses, renters are also cramming more people into apartments, Martin said. Increasingly, people can't afford their homes at all and are now facing eviction. Governments have ended eviction moratoriums and rental assistance programs that allowed people to stay in their homes during the pandemic. The Eviction Lab, a research organization at Princeton University, is seeing record numbers of evictions that have surpassed pre-pandemic levels. In Houston, where the eviction moratorium ended in July 2021, there were 7,242 eviction filings in July of this year, 51% above average, according to The Eviction Lab. Other cities such as Los Angeles have extended eviction moratoriums until the end of this year. Tenants who can't afford rent increases but also can't afford to move are often forced to choose between paying rent and covering basic necessities. An eviction stays on a renter's record, making it harder to find housing in the future. “The threat of eviction is the looming problem," said Nick Graetz, a postdoctoral research associate at The Eviction Lab. “Part of the reason renters sacrifice so many other things to try to pay unreasonable high rents every month is because of the constant threat of being evicted from their home.” ___ The Associated Press receives support from Charles Schwab Foundation for educational and explanatory reporting to improve financial literacy.

Coosa’s Harrison East (5) sets his sights on Gordon Central’s Peyton Wilson during Friday’s game. The Warriors will finish up the non-Region portion of its schedule this week when they are at Trion. After playing two consecutive weeks at home, the Gordon Central High School football team is back on the bus this Friday night with a trip to undefeated Trion. This week’s encounter against the 2-0 Bulldogs is also Gordon Central’s final non-Region contest before they are off for a week and then commence with their Region 7-2A schedule Friday, Sept. 23 back at Ratner Stadium against defending league champion Fannin County. The game will also be Trion’s home opener so after two big road wins, they will certainly be looking to entertain the home folks with another win, but Gordon Central is looking to spoil that party. The Warriors would love to get into the win column and collect some momentum going into their all-important league slate, but it won’t be easy against a Trion team which has not only won its first two games, but has scored 45 points in each of those games. A couple of weeks ago, head coach T.J. Hamilton briefly discussed how good the Bulldogs were. “Trion’s got a very good offense, so that will be a real test for our young defense,” he said. “They’ve got a couple of different playmakers and a couple of very good running backs, so we’ll see where we are when we play them. But playing teams like a Trion will help us in the long run. The main thing is like every game, we go out and play with great effort and be as physical as we can be.” The Bulldogs will have had two weeks to get ready for the Warriors, having one of their two weeks off last Friday. They kicked off the year with a 45-19 win over Gordon Lee and then belted LaFayette, 45-7, nearly two weeks ago to get off to their good start. Trion is a member of the Class A Division 1 Region 7 along with a number of teams that Gordon Central played against the last two years when they were all in Region 7-2A. Pepperell, Chattooga, Dade County, and Coosa are those teams and the Warriors played Coosa last Friday night and had a 33-21 loss to the Eagles on homecoming. In that most recent 45-7 romp over LaFayette, Trion racked up nearly 370 yards in total offense and senior Logan Ellis and junior Toby Maddux combined for 215 yards and three touchdowns on the ground, including a nifty 52-yard run by Maddux in which he broke several tackles at the line of scrimmage and then outran the Rambler defense once he broke free. On the defensive side, they gave up less than 200 yards and had three interceptions to win rather easily against LaFayette. For Gordon Central, they must continue to grow every week as a large group of freshmen and sophomores are getting baptism by fire every Friday night. In their loss to Coosa last week, a special teams miscue put the Warriors behind the eight-ball immediately when the speedy Eagles took their first punt of the night back 95 yards for a touchdown just three minutes into the game. From there, they were playing from behind although Coosa didn’t put them away until late. The big thing is the Warriors, who are playing a lot of young guys and even older players without a lot of experience, keep fighting. They can’t give up and they can’t give in. The kickoff in Trion, which held schools this week despite flood waters in the area, is set for 7:30 p.m. Friday night.

Central Brain Tumor Registry of the United States' Statistical Report Validates Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation's Urgent Call for Action to Reverse Brain Cancer Trends in Children and Adolescents ATLANTA, Sept. 6, 2022 //PRNewswire// -- A new report published in Neuro-Oncology exposes an alarming reality for children, adolescents, and families facing pediatric brain cancer across the country. The Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation (PBTF, curethekids.org) funded this first-of-its-kind report by the Central Brain Tumor Registry of the United States (CBTRUS, cbtrus.org) to increase understanding of the scope and severity of this childhood disease. - More children under the age of 19 are diagnosed with brain tumors, and dying from them, than ever before, while adult brain cancer patients are experiencing a decline in the incidence of diagnosis and mortality rates. - There are significant disparities in the incidence of diagnosis and mortality rates among states. While the report doesn't address the reasons for these disparities, we know that differences in access to treatment, environmental factors, and emphasis on pediatric cancer in state health policies warrant closer study. - Pediatric brain cancer doesn't discriminate but is a disproportionate threat to children of color, who experience lower survival rates than white children. - While mortality rates have increased, the need for attention to survivorship is greater than ever. The estimated number of children and adolescents in the United States living with the aftereffects of brain tumors has increased by 45% since 2010. - Even as their odds for survival have declined, children and adolescents diagnosed with brain tumors are, on average, living longer. This increase brings a higher demand for health resources and palliative care education for patients, survivors, and their families. "This report from CBTRUS validates what the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation has been saying for years: Pediatric cancer demands more attention and a greater investment in the development of new treatments and resources for patient families," says Courtney Davies, PBTF President and CEO. "Pediatric brain cancer trends are moving in the opposite direction of those for adults because childhood cancer does not receive the same level of attention, research, or financial commitment as adult cancers. The research community, pharmaceutical companies, healthcare policymakers, and funders must do more. Kids' lives are at stake." There are more than 120 types of brain tumors in need of treatment advancements. Small patient populations for these individual tumor types, insufficient tissue samples, and the lack of research funding have led to an incomplete understanding of this disease. Progress towards effective treatments or cures is also slow. Treatments developed for adult populations are ineffective for kids or contribute to long-term health complications. Because pediatric brain tumors are a numerically small problem, research scientists and pharmaceutical companies are not incentivized to study them. Meanwhile, the developmental, emotional, and financial impact on children diagnosed with brain tumors and their families is profound. PBTF is committed to leading the way toward a future without childhood cancer. This report provides insights that are shaping our response to this public health crisis. As a result of our analysis of the report, we are: - Focusing greater attention on state-level health policy and advocating for emphasis on pediatric health. - Redoubling our commitment to funding promising early-stage research. Every dollar PBTF invests attracts 12 dollars in follow-on funding. - Directing family support resources to states where the need is greatest and where each dollar can make the most difference. There is no cure for pediatric cancer without collaboration, and we need patient advocacy organizations, pharmaceutical companies, researchers, and caring individuals to walk alongside us as we address the local impact of pediatric cancer. If you have questions about how you can make a difference, email us at info@curethekids.org. Visit curethekids.org/cbtrus-report to view the full report. No parent believes their child will be diagnosed with brain cancer. When it happens, no patient, parent, sibling, or survivor should have to stand alone. The Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation is there for families facing the deadliest and most common childhood cancer, responding with resources and community support that address every family member's needs. The largest patient advocacy funder of pediatric brain tumor research, PBTF also funds and advocates for innovative projects that lead to vital discoveries, new clinical trials, and better treatments – all bringing us closer to a cure. We're able to do that because of people and partners committed to supporting families and ending childhood brain cancer. Learn more at curethekids.org.

An India keen to accelerate mustn’t leave safety behind 4 min read . 10:34 PM ISTHigher speeds must go with commensurate infrastructure, safer vehicles and properly trained drivers Higher speeds must go with commensurate infrastructure, safer vehicles and properly trained drivers On Sunday, the car that Cyrus Mistry, ex-chairman Tata Sons, and three others were travelling in hit the parapet wall of a bridge over the Surya River on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad highway. Mistry was seated in a back seat along with Jehangir Pandole. Both lost their lives in this crash. On Sunday, the car that Cyrus Mistry, ex-chairman Tata Sons, and three others were travelling in hit the parapet wall of a bridge over the Surya River on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad highway. Mistry was seated in a back seat along with Jehangir Pandole. Both lost their lives in this crash. Road crashes are a pandemic to which about 1.35 million lives are lost every year. As per National Crime Records Bureau data, in 2021 alone 155,622 people were killed and 371,884 injured in 403,116 road crashes in India. Of these, over 60% fatalities occurred on national and state highways; 63% of all deaths occurred in the 18-45 age group. What makes our road safety picture particularly grim is the fact that not only does India hold the global road crash fatality top spot, it also has the highest global crash severity, at 38.6 deaths per 100 crashes in 2021. Last year’s figure is also the highest crash severity level logged in India during the last two decades. Road crashes are a pandemic to which about 1.35 million lives are lost every year. As per National Crime Records Bureau data, in 2021 alone 155,622 people were killed and 371,884 injured in 403,116 road crashes in India.

What makes our road safety picture particularly grim is the fact that not only does India hold the global road crash fatality top spot, it also has the highest global crash severity, at 38.6 deaths per 100 crashes in 2021. Last year’s figure is also the highest crash severity level logged in India during the last two decades. Official records and forensic investigations of road crashes by SaveLIFE Foundation have helped identify some of the primary reasons behind our high toll. The most significant is over-speeding, which led to 87,050 fatalities in 2021. Close on its heels was dangerous or careless driving that led to 42,853 lives lost. Other major causal factors include driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol, mechanical defects in vehicles, driver fatigue, lack of infrastructure and rear-end collisions involving vehicles parked illegally on the shoulder of a road, among others. Reasons for crashes must be bifurcated from the causes of subsequent injuries and deaths, with vehicular, behavioural and other risks analysed apart from issues of post-accident life saving. With such gargantuan fatality numbers, targeted measures to ensure greater road safety for all types of users is the need of the hour. As India develops faster and better highways, we must deploy commensurate systems suited for high-speed corridors. Such highways require adequate crash barriers spaced uniformly for the safety of users in the event of an accident. Similarly, we need more road signs in the correct size and placed at apt intervals to convey speed limits (and their changes), leaving room for adequate time and space for road users to take note and act accordingly. Other infrastructural elements that need attention on high-speed stretches are the securing of exposed hard structures, closing of unauthorized gaps in the median, ensuring against poor road construction and maintenance, and making provisions for pedestrians and road safety at intersections and vulnerable zones. To ensure that speed limits and other safety rules are adhered to, optimal and robust speed enforcement is extremely important. This can be ensured through active traffic-rule enforcement using both manual as well as electronic surveillance, including high-visibility and high-speed patrol vehicles, drones and speed tracking cameras, especially within and ahead of high-risk zones. While these pre-emptive measures are essential for the prevention of road crashes, simultaneous action is necessary towards ensuring a rapid trauma response and emergency medical care system. The deployment of ambulances close to high-fatality zones, advanced ambulances that can support road crash victims in transit and a proper triage system that ensures minimal loss of time in referring patients to the specialized care they require are essential. The current Emergency Care system in India is archaic and needs a dramatic overhaul to reduce the loss of lives. Speed management studies must also be undertaken to establish appropriate speed limits. These studies should factor in all elements associated with our highways, including the vehicular mix using them and their mode-wise speed limits, as well as design elements from a civil engineering perspective. Understanding the terrain of high-speed corridors as well as the areas they pass through, apart from all the connecting roads and bylanes, are essential in mapping the road user base of these stretches. This will help in gauging what limits as well as checks and balances need to be deployed where. On the part of road users, the elements that require cognizance and mindfulness include the driver’s capacity to manoeuvre vehicles on high-speed stretches while adhering to set rules, such as the usage of front and rear seat belts (or helmets in case of two-wheelers), staying within speed limits and designated lanes, and never driving under the influence of alcohol or narcotics. For better vehicular safety, the immediate measures necessary include a vigorous permanent car safety assessment rating system, on the lines of the Bharat New Car Assessment Programme introduced by India’s ministry of road transport and highways through a draft notification on 24 June 2022. Six airbags in all passenger four-wheelers and a rear seat belt alarm system are measures that require standardization across the board for ensuring stable structures that provide adequate protection and lower the probability of life-threatening injuries and fatalities. Industry opposition to those mandates are safety roadblocks that require a firm government stance, followed by laws and rules aimed at safer vehicles to help ensure a secure commute for every road user. High-speed traffic corridors are essential to the overall development of a nation, so there is no arguing with these. However, working towards ensuring the safety of road users is of paramount importance towards guaranteeing that our highways and other streets function as intended and contribute to the economic growth of the country. Piyush Tewari is the founder and chief executive officer of SaveLIFE Foundation, a non-profit organisation.

A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition.

Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) co-founder and inventor, Serhat Gumrukcu, was engaged in a variety of frauds; (2) Gumrukcu was not a licensed doctor anywhere in the world; (3) as a result of the foregoing, Gumrukcu's purported contributions to Enochian lacked a reasonable basis; (4) as a result of the foregoing, Enochian had overstated its commercial prospects; (5) Gumrukcu had improperly diverted approximately $20 million from Enochian to entities he owned; and (6) as a result of the foregoing, defendants' positive statements about Enochian's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

With each passing year, Chinese youth are forced to choose higher education courses based on their low-income backgrounds. This in turn is leading to lower academic performance. Millions of youth in China are faced with the dilemma of whether to pursue academic or vocational education after completing high school. Following the global trend of rapidly increasing student enrolment in higher education, “the number of university enrolments and graduates increased dramatically in China”, according to a recent research paper. The increase has been so substantial that data from 2015–2017 showed that the “proportion of university graduates aged 24–35 outweighed the share of lower secondary graduates, a clear sign of the consequences of rapid higher education growth”. The Chinese labour market today suffers simultaneously from over-educated and under-skilled workers. On the one hand, college-educated young workers fail to find jobs that match their education levels. On the other hand, firms have to put up with under-skilled labourers, because the types of skills required by them are different from those taught in schools. The issue of over-education has thus become a matter of concern in China as the average education level of the youth rises fast. Over the last two decades, the number of young workers with college education has increased dramatically from 0.95 million workers in 2000 to 7.53 million workers in 2018. However, the number of jobs that require higher education levels has not grown comparably. The educational mismatch becomes one of major concerns in the Chinese labour market. The oversupply of university graduates and undersupply of skilled workers have together aggravated the mismatch in the job market. Highly qualified individuals must move downwards to low-skilled jobs and snatch opportunities from less competitive vocational graduates. This decreases the attractiveness of vocational education, and further depreciates the value of degrees as more students turn to academic education. There is also the problem of gender wage gap across vocational and academic graduates. At the upper secondary and tertiary level, “men are consistently paid 11–14 per cent more than women”. Within the same gender, returns to academic education at the tertiary level are more than 20 per cent higher than returns to vocational education. Yet returns to academic education at the upper secondary level, are similar to returns to vocational education at the same level. Chinese youth are aware that the academic route is very expensive and that returns of education are not very encouraging. Scores of skilled youth with college degrees are competing for a few low-level jobs. On the other hand, youths prefer vocational education because it is tailored to the skill sets needed for available jobs in the labour market. But these are low-paying and lack opportunities for career So, the youth in China are really stuck with a dilemma. On top of it, young people who come from the rural areas prefer vocational education because of their low academic rankings. This overall employment challenge is further exacerbated by global uncertainty, job market mismatch and over-education. China’s youth must grapple with the reality that education no longer guarantees prosperity. One of the major challenges facing the job market is the undersupply of skilled workers. According to available data, “across all working aged people, around 30 per cent completed lower secondary education, 14 per cent completed academic upper secondary education and only 9 per cent completed vocational upper secondary education”. There has been a significant “shift from an economy dominated by lower-educated workers to higher-educated ones, reflecting an overall improvement in the quality of labour supply”. There has also been an “increase in vocational upper secondary graduates and vocational university graduates” in the younger generation. The increase is more a result of Chinese government policy that aims to balance vocational enrolments and academic enrolments nationwide than individual decisions. A large population of uneducated workers was not a problem when China moved from low to middle income. Unskilled wages were low and there was growth in low-cost manufacturing and construction. But China’s growth model is changing as it gets wealthier. Unskilled wages are much higher, but the lure of cheaper labour elsewhere and China’s massive push to automate is rendering low-skilled workers redundant. Construction jobs have tapered off as investment in infrastructure cools. These factors suggest China’s unskilled workers may be increasingly unemployable as the economy upgrades. The only destination for China’s unskilled workforce, whether new entrants or laid-off workers, is the informal service sector. Several factors have propelled unemployment among 16 to 24 years urban youth in China to above 19 per cent,which is more than that in the US. This is happening at a time when over 12 million college and vocational student graduates are likely to enter the job market this year. The entry of this highly educated group into the market is likely to intensify the mismatch between available jobs and the expectations of the job seekers. The consequence of this situation is a band of disillusioned young people who have lost faith in the private sector are prepared to take jobs in the state sector with lower pay. If this trend continues, the world's second largest economy is likely to suffer. The number of jobless under 25 amounts to 2 to 3 per cent in the Chinese workforce and fewer workers means lower GDP. - Front Page - Pure Politics - Companies - Economy - More - India Seeks Supply Surety Before Any Talks on Russia Cap India will consider backing the US-proposed price cap on Russian crude only if supplies from countries such as Venezuela and Iran are assured. ‘Govt Policies Making India a Much More Attractive Market’The world’s fifth largest economy has improved over the years in terms of ease of doing business as bureaucratic red tape has lessened and many reforms such as the goods and services tax has made compliance easier.

What economic growth really means? Our age is an age of economic growth combined with rapid population growth. Two dynamics have meant a massive expansion of economic activity; of total output produced on the planet each year and of course a massive increase in humanity’s impact on the planet. We are also seeing improved health. Around 1950, for every 1,000 children who were born, an estimated 134 out of the 1,000 would not survive till their first birthday. 134 have come down to 28 today. However, it is still sad that 28 children still don’t make it to their first birthday, dying of malaria or pneumonia, or other preventable diseases. With more children surviving and with health improving at older ages as well, the good news is that our life expectancy is also rising. In the middle of the last century the period 1950 to 1955, the average life expectancy for people on the planet was around 47 years. As of today, the estimated life expectancy at birth is more than 70 years. And in the high-income countries around 80 years. Economic development can improve lives. We also need to ensure that the economic growth is inclusive and that it’s not leaving millions and millions of people behind. Progress itself should not cut our natural life support systems of biodiversity, food production, and safe climate-productive oceans. The challenge is to ensure a holistic approach to ensuring that economic growth and material improvement are socially inclusive and environmentally sustainable. However, there has been no example of economic growth more remarkable than China. It is the world’s most populous country. Anything major that happens in China is earth-shaking. China has been among the fastest-growing economies in world history. China was averaging roughly 10% per year of economic growth. It could be the rule of 70. If we take the number 70 and divide it by the growth rate in this case 10, 70 divided by 10 is 7. It means China has been doubling its national income every seven years. For instance, Shenzhen was a small village in 1980 mainly rural with 30,000 people. Shenzhen today has 17mn people. Shenzhen has become a modern metropolis and a manufacturing hub for the world. Not only did populations rise, did incomes per person soar, but also, how people live clearly and fundamentally changed. From rural agricultural livelihoods to modern urban manufacturing and services in a matter of three decades. While we may not experience a Shenzhen-like change. However, the basic pattern of economic growth a transition from poor, small-holder farming to modern manufacturing especially the modern service economy is part of the normal pathway of economic growth. For thousands of years, the population was under 1bn. Then from 1830 to 1930 just in one century, the second billion was added. But then the numbers started to soar because from 1930 to 1960, just 30 years, a third billion was added. We are on track to reach 8bn soon, and 9bn sometime in the 2040s. This population change is astounding. In Bhutan, 29 out of 1,000 babies die before their 5th birthday as of 2019. The poverty rate slightly increased to 11.2 percent in 2020 from 10.7 percent in 2019. Bhutan should look beyond hydropower and tourism. Policies should support economic diversification!

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) — Around 30 Brown University students were forced from their dorms Monday after downpours caused the first floor of the building to flood. That’s according to university spokesperson Brian Clark, who said it happened in one of the residence halls on Keeney Quad. “Staff from our Facilities Management and Residential Life offices have been assisting since late afternoon, to remove water, assess and repair damage and help students with plans for returning to rooms as possible and/or finding alternate housing for the night,” Clark wrote in a statement to 12 News. A number of students took to social media to post images and video of the flooding. Monday’s heavy rainfall wreaked havoc elsewhere in the city. A number of major roadways including I-95 and Route 10 became completely blocked by rising floodwaters.

The beginning of Shikshak Parv was marked with an inaugural conclave organised by the Ministry of Education, CBSE, AICTE and the Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship. Minister of State (MoS) for Education Annapurna Devi said, ''Teachers are looked upon as role models by children and they play an important role in shaping students' characters and building a value-based society.'' ''Under NEP 2020, teachers will have to work on the future action plan as per the concept of an integrated and multidisciplinary approach. Strong cooperation and coordination of a teacher is the key and inspiration for building the skills and character of students,'' she said. The ministers presented the ''CBSE Honour for Excellence in Teaching and School Leadership 2021-22 awards'' to 19 Principals and Teachers from CBSE-affiliated schools.

The Herald Africa Moyo Deputy News Editor The Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) has today arrested Tobacco Industry and Marketing Board (TIMB) chief executive officer Meanwell Gudu. ZACC spokesperson Commissioner John Makamure confirmed the arrest this evening but said he was yet to get more details. “Yes I can confirm that (Gudu’s arrest), but I don’t have the details. He was arrested by ZACC,” said Comm Makamure. The Herald could not immediately establish from close sources if the arrest is linked to the damning reports prepared by the unceremoniously fired TIMB head of inspectorate, Mr Saviour Muvirimi. The reports suggested massive underhand dealings in the tobacco sector where some contractors are allegedly underfunding farmers while others are buying free-funded tobacco through abuse of grower numbers, a development that is feared could force tobacco auction floors to close.

Dozens of fans escorted out of Snapdragon stadium due to heat related illnesses SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – The long-awaited opening of San Diego State’s new Snapdragon Stadium couldn’t have been worse. The problems with the stadium’s open-air design were made clear by the heat wave, as temperatures neared 100 degrees. There is essentially no shade in the entire stadium and many fans were taken in for medical attention as they battled heat related illnesses. The exact number of people needing medical aid is going to be released sometime Monday, but people that attended the game say they personally saw multiple people on stretchers suffering heat exhaustion. It was so hot during Saturday’s game against the University of Arizona, that fans couldn’t even stay in their seats during the game as they were searching for shade. KUSI’s Allie Wagner was live outside Snapdragon stadium awaiting the official numbers. A TikTok has gone viral highlighting the problems with the stadium, which was shared by the popular account, @scareventures. @scareventures Snapdragon Stadium San Diego, California SDSU Aztecs Home Opener DISASTER CBS Sports Arizona Wildcats College Football Stadium Opening Day #snapdragon #snapdragonstadium #sdsu #aztecs #sandiegostate #cbs #sandiego #qualcomm #newstadium #problems #issues #extremeheat #heatwave ♬ Kernkraft 400 (Original Radio Edit) – Zombie Nation The terrible start for San Diego State’s new stadium is a big disappointment for San Diegans as we look at SoFi stadium in Los Angeles, which has the overhanging roof, which provides shade to all attendees.

Grantham hospital to reopen restaurant to public More news, no ads LEARN MORELincolnshire Hospitals will be opening their restaurants once again to the public. From Wednesday, September 7, anyone will be able to buy hot and cold food from the restaurants at Grantham, Lincoln and Boston hospitals. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the hospitals' restaurants were closed to the public, but United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust has made the decision to reopen its restaurant doors. John Spencer, the trust's catering manager, said: "Throughout the pandemic our restaurants have remained open for our amazing teams who have been working in our hospitals. "With restrictions continuing to ease in our communities, we feel that the time is now right to reopen our doors to members of the public. "When visiting our hospitals they will be able to come in and purchase everything from a cup of tea, to a hot meal or a piece of cake. "We have missed them and I know our teams are really looking forward to welcoming the public back into our restaurants." The trust’s restaurant and catering teams have kept busy during the public closure by continuing to serve hospital staff and those patients staying on one of the wards. In an average day: - The hospital kitchens make 250 sandwiches that are sold in the restaurants. - The kitchen teams also prepare hundreds of salads for sale. - Almost 200 jacket potatoes are cooked in the restaurants and served with a choice of hot or cold fillings. - 500 hot meals are prepared in the restaurants, including vegan and vegetarian choices are served. - 100kg of chips are served every day in the restaurants. - Hot and cold puddings are prepared. - Hundreds of hot and cold drinks are also served in the restaurants. This is in addition to the thousands of meals the kitchens prepare each day for patients staying on the wards. John added: "The team really do work non-stop, both in our hospital kitchens and in our restaurants. They are a great bunch of people who not only go out of their way to keep our colleagues and visitors fed and watered, but they always makes sure that they are served with a smile." At the Grantham and District Hospital, the restaurant will be open from 8.30am until 2.30pm, and hot food will stop serving at 1.45pm. At Lincoln County Hospital it will open from 8am until 2.30pm and hot food finishes at 2pm. The Pilgrim Hospital restaurant in Boston will open from 7.45am until 3pm and hot food finishes at 1.45pm.

Lock-in from previous purchases can be a big roadblock on switching. Kobo Kobo's new mid-level Clara 2E is better than the Kindle Paperwhite in almost every way, but unless you're in the market for a new e-reader, then you shouldn't rush into it. While there are cheaper (and also fancier) e-readers around, the best models for most people are Kobo's Clara and Amazon's Kindle Paperwhite. These both come with everything you need and very little you don't. But the Clara 2E has two big advantages over the Kindle. One is that it is made mostly from recycled plastic. The other is that its software is way better. "For anyone who ever prospected for e-readers, it's pretty well known that Kobo gives slightly superior pieces of hardware compared to Kindles overall. The Kobo is a better device, but the Kindle has the advantage of using Amazon's library," mechanical engineer, consumer product designer, and Kobo fan Ludovic Chung-Sao told Lifewire via email when asked about the Kobo vs. the Kindle. Round One, Hardware Specs-wise, these two are almost equal. They both have Bluetooth for connecting headphones and listening to e-books, they have warm front lights for comfortable late-night reading, they're waterproof, and both have battery life measured in weeks. The main difference in hardware is that the Kindle has a 6.8-inch screen, a little bigger than the Kobo's 6-inch unit. That's an advantage or a disadvantage, depending on whether you value a bigger screen over portability or vice versa. Kobo Then things start to diverge. The Clara 2E, says Kobo, is made with "over 85% recycled plastic, including 10% ocean-bound plastic." For plastic devices, this should honestly be the default. The Paperwhite, on the other hand, has a "Climate Pledge Friendly" logo and link on its Amazon product page. Follow that link, and you'll end up in a labyrinth of empty claims and greenwashing. So far, there's not so much to choose between the two. If you're only looking at the hardware and specs, then Kobo wins, but seeing as an e-reader can last you for years and years, it doesn't make that much difference. Round Two: Software When you're reading an e-book, you'll spend most of your time looking at the pages of that book, of course. I have used both Kindle and Kobo on and off over the years, and the Kobo not only has better, more customizable typography and a far-superior built-in dictionary, but it also just looks nicer. The Kindle feels like you're reading computer text on a screen. The Kobo feels like you're reading the page of a paper book. "The reason I keep on picking up a Kobo device is because of the reading experience," says Kobo fan and reader ChristianBK in a Reddit thread. This might seem like a picky, esoteric difference. But if you're in the market for an e-reader instead of reading on your phone or iPad, then you're already in pretty esoteric territory. You've opted for an e-reader because it offers a superior reading experience, and typography and design are a huge part of that. Kobo Then there's the rest of it. Kobo's library and store views are quite different from the Kindle. Again, the Kobo feels less web-pagey than the Kindle. This isn't always better. Kobo's recommendations, for example, are displayed as cards in a kind of fanned stack. It's fine, but it doesn't make it any easier to navigate. There are two other major software differences. One is the way previews work. On the Kindle, you save a preview to your library, then you go and open it. It's a truncated version of the book. On Kobo, you can preview the book right there in the store browser view. The experience is much more like picking up and browsing books in a store. The downside is that in my local territory, at least, the Kobo is missing a large chunk of previews. Whereas almost every book in the Kindle store offers a preview, it seems that many Kobo books do not, which means that you will probably never buy them unless you already follow the author or know the book. The other big difference is that Kobo readers have the Pocket read-later service built in. This means you can save long web articles, and they get formatted for Kobo. If you have a bunch of Kindle books already, then you may be locked into the Kindle ecosystem, but if you prefer a superior reading experience or if this is your first time buying an e-reader, consider the Kobo. They're way nicer. Was this page helpful? Thanks for letting us know! Get the Latest Tech News Delivered Every Day Subscribe Tell us why! Other Not enough details Hard to understand Submit

Suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari, on Monday, said the allegation by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, linking him to the ownership of 14 assets, including shopping mall, residential estate, polo playground, lands and farmland, was untrue, Punch reports. Kyari, a former Commander, Intelligence Response Team, in a statement by his lawyer, Hamza Dan Tani, said the reports were orchestrated by the NDLEA to further tarnish his image. According to him, the agency resorted to cheap blackmail because “NDLEA’s case in court against Abba Kyari and four others is not going well for them”. He challenged the NDLEA to immediately release all his account statements to the public if what they are saying were true. Sharing the details, Tani said there were N2.8 million in his UBA account, the only account he has been using for the past eight years; 7,000 pounds in GTB kept over eight years ago and N350,000 in GTB kept many years ago. Others were N200,000 in Sterling Bank and Access Bank Account not in use for over eight years. Kyari’s lawyer said, “They expected the court case to go smoothly in their favour the way their sponsored media trials went viral between February to April 2022. They failed to understand that unlike media trials, courts need real evidence and facts which NDLEA don’t have in this case. “By all means, out of desperation, again, NDLEA wanted to spoil Abba Kyari’s name at all cost because they know that all their initial efforts have failed as overwhelming majority of good Nigerians who want peace and security for the Nation are still behind Abba Kyari despite the set up by NDLEA against Abba Kyari in January 2022, which was followed by massive sponsored media trial earlier this year. “Again, NDLEA is sponsoring fabricated lies, untrue stories, and flimsy allegations, trumped-up and false charges in court without justification against Abba Kyari.” He recalled that on August 29, 2022, Justice Inyang Ekwo of a Federal High Court in Abuja dismissed a suit filed by the Attorney-General of Federation to extradite DCP Abba Kyari to America. “On August 30, the NDLEA filed another 24 count charges against DCP Abba Kyari just to mislead the general public and tarnish his image despite the same matter being before Federal High Court in Maiduguri and without any evidence linking Abba Kyari to any of those properties or any link to any drug money, stealing government money or any proceed of any crime,” Tani said. The lawyer insisted that all the allegations on monies and properties by NDLEA belonging to Abba Kyari were false, untrue and lies, just to mislead the public into wrongly believing that it belongs to Abba Kyari. The statement read, “The businessmen who own those properties and gave their documents have already filed their cases against NDLEA in Federal High Court Maiduguri. The NDLEA without any evidence went and marked innocent people’s properties in Maiduguri and Abuja in April 2022 and released the news to the media which went viral. “This is just a malicious media trial without any evidence to show in the court. If NDLEA has any evidence linking Abba Kyari to any of those properties apart from his farmland and one house, they should release it to the public immediately. “These whole properties matter is before Federal High Court in Maiduguri but NDLEA is still desperate by trying to link Abba Kyari without any evidence to financial crimes and properties that do not belong to him, neither is there one kobo of drug money or any crime money that is linked to Abba Kyari in any way. “We challenge NDLEA to release the evidence to the public immediately if any. The whole thing is only aimed at media trials as they have no evidence to show to the court. If they have the evidence, let them release it to the media. This is how all their cases will crumble in the courts since their aim is only a media trial. “For the records, the total money in Abba Kyari’s account is N2.8 million in his UBA account, the only account he has been using for the past eight years, 7,000 pounds in GTB kept over eight years ago and N350,000 in GTB kept many years ago. “Less than N200,000 in Sterling Bank and Access Bank Account not in use for over eight years. These are all the money that DCP Abba Kyari has in his accounts, which he has declared and the NDLEA should immediately release all Abba Kyari’s account statements to the public if what they are saying is true.” ____ Follow us on Twitter at @thesignalng Copyright 2022 SIGNAL.

Asian markets mixed after China promises economic support BEIJING (AP) — Asian stock markets were mixed Tuesday after China promised to speed up the rollout of policy changes to boost anemic economic growth. Shanghai gained while Hong Kong declined. Tokyo and South Korea were unchanged at midday. The Chinese Cabinet’s planning agency promised Monday to accelerate easier lending and other policies but announced no new spending. Economic growth sank to 2.5% over a year earlier in the second half, less than half the official annual target. The announcement might “provide a short-term uplift” to sentiment, but investors “ultimately want to see a stronger recovery,” said Yeap Jun Rong of IG in a report. The Shanghai Composite Index gained 1% to 3,232.24 while the Nikkei 225 in Tokyo was unchanged at 28,618.62. The Hang Seng in Hong Kong shed 0.2% to 19,188.25. The Kospi in Seoul was unchanged at 2,403.90 and Sydney’s S&P-ASX 200 gained less than 0.1% to 6,855.50. New Zealand retreated while Southeast Asian markets gained. U.S. markets were closed Monday for Labor Day. European markets sank following Friday’s announcement by Russian gas giant Gazprom that a suspension of supplies through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline would be extended indefinitely. That adds to shortages in Germany and other economies. The deputy director of China’s National Development and Reform Commission, Yang Yinkai, said the agency will “speed up the release of policy effectiveness” to “make up for losses caused by the epidemic in the second quarter,” according to news reports. The government has trimmed interest rates, given entrepreneurs a break on rent and promised other aid to revive the economy after Shanghai and other industrial centers temporarily shut down to fight virus outbreaks. But it is avoiding major spending, possibly for fear of reigniting a rise in housing costs and debt that Chinese leaders worry is dangerously high. Also Monday, Beijing freed up more foreign currency holdings of Chinese commercial banks for lending and trading by lowering the amount they must hold in reserve. The move rolls back an increase imposed last year to limit speculative trading and restrain the rise of the exchange rate of China’s yuan, which has since declined. In energy markets, benchmark U.S. crude gained $1.71 to $88.58 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Brent crude, used to price international oils, lost 81 cents to $94.93 per barrel in London. The dollar advanced to 140.48 yen from Monday’s 140.46 yen. The euro gained to 99.49 cents from 99.31 cents.

PRECIOUS-Gold slips as dollar resumes rally, bond yields rise * Dollar hits fresh 20-year high * U.S. 10-Treasury yields at highest since June * Focus shifts to ECB rate hike on Thursday (Recasts, adds comments and updates prices) By Brijesh Patel Sept 6 (Reuters) - Gold prices on Tuesday slipped from a one-week high hit earlier in the session, as the dollar and Treasury yields climbed amid expectations for aggressive monetary policy tightening by major central banks. Spot gold U.S. gold futures Focus this week will be on the European Central Bank meeting on Thursday, where it is expected to deliver a 75-basis-point interest rate hike. Fed fund futures are now pricing in a 73% chance of a 75-basis-point rate hike by the Fed at its Sept. 20-21 policy meeting. "There's few forces pressuring the market, all of which have to do with the outlook for monetary policy across the world over the next year," said Daniel Ghali, commodity strategist at TD Securities. The dollar jumped to a two decade high after data showed U.S. services industry picked up again in August, making gold more expensive for overseas buyers. [USD/] Benchmark U.S. Treasury yields "Gold has been dragged lower by the dollar and rising bond yields. In this environment with those two outside markets doing what they're doing, it's pretty hard for gold to sustain any kind of rally," said Bob Haberkorn, senior market strategist at RJO Futures. "We could see some bargain hunting that comes in here at these levels. That should keep a floor on this market. However, don't see that substantial upside move here that's sometimes people are looking for in times of uncertainty."

BuyProperty Launches New Property Auction In Portugal BuyProperty.com launches its newest feature allowing sellers and their agents to auction their house off to the highest bidder in Portugal. Not accepting a first buyer's offer means sellers could earn 7-12% more when selling by auction.” LISBON, PORTUGAL, September 6, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- In a time of housing scarcity when there are many buyers for every property, selling your property to the first buyer means you may have gotten more if other buyers had bid. The less professional real estate agents would sell to the first buyer as they want to close the deal fast, get their commission, and move on to the next property as soon as possible. It’s not worth the extra commission for them to keep the property on the market, whereas the seller could earn 20-30k more had they waited. Auctions solve this, allowing many agents and their buyers to bid, all competing for the same property. The final auction price is the true value of the property.— Scott Kirk, CEO, BuyProperty.com Bidders are vetted throughout the bidding process and start by verifying their phone number on placing their first bid. Once the reserve is met and the bidding process slows, top bidders are further vetted and proof of funds may be required. When bidding is complete, the highest bidder has 2 business days to sign a promissory note and show proof of 10% deposit. Failure to do so in the time allotted will result in the property being sold to the next highest bidder. The auction period lasts 2 weeks and is completely online. To deter bidders from bidding at the last minute, the BuyProperty auction resets to 24 hours if the remaining time is less. This negates any benefits of bidding in the last seconds and ensures all potential bidders an equal chance. This first property, a beautiful 3-bedroom apartment 500m from the beach in Quarteira, will be put up for auction on September 15, 2022. The property reference ID is BP2654136.

- 2022 September 6 17:05 Shell and PETRONAS to develop the Rosmari-Marjoram gas project in Sarawak, Malaysia Sarawak Shell Berhad (SSB) (80%, Operator), a subsidiary of Shell plc, together with PETRONAS Carigali Sdn Bhd (20%), has taken a final investment decision (FID) to develop the Rosmari-Marjoram gas project, according to Shell's release. Rosmari-Marjoram fields are situated 220 kilometres (km) off the coast of Bintulu, Sarawak, Malaysia and will be powered by renewable energy, using solar power for the offshore platform. The Rosmari-Marjoram development is one of the strategic projects to ensure a sustained gas supply to the PETRONAS LNG Complex.The project comprises a remotely operated offshore platform and onshore gas plant, with infrastructure that includes one of the longest sour wet gas offshore pipelines in the world stretching more than 200 km. Rosmari-Marjoram project is designed to produce 800 million standard cubic feet of gas per day (MMscf/d). Gas production is expected to start in 2026. Rosmari and Marjoram are deepwater sour gas fields discovered in 2014. The Rosmari-Marjoram development will consist of a subsea tie-back, an unmanned well head platform, a 207-km pipeline to shore and an onshore gas plant at Bintulu. Rosmari-Marjoram development will be primarily powered by renewable energy; the offshore platform will utilize power from 240 solar panels, while the onshore plant is connected to the Sarawak grid system which is supplied mainly from hydroelectric plants. Diesel generators and batteries are to be used as backup.Rosmari-Marjoram’s Onshore Gas Plant marks SSB’s largest onshore project in Sarawak since the construction of Bintulu Crude Oil Terminal (BCOT) and Bintulu Integrated Facility (BIF) in the late 1970s.

Pakistani grill restaurant Mughli has hit out at a one-star Google review, in which a diner complained about a bill of £122 and called the Curry Mile favourite’s dishes ‘small and over-priced’. The diner claimed that they went as part of a party of six to the Wilmslow Road spot, favoured by locals and celebrities alike, but found they were not given enough food. They then say that they ‘had to go to another restraunt (sic) to get more food as coudn’t (sic) afford they small portions and high prices’. The issue of an £11 service charge was also complained about, but owners of the restaurant then took to Twitter to clarify some of the economic realities of restaurant ownership, also questioning how a group of six expected to be sufficiently fed with ‘two curries and a mixed grill’. “We all got bills to pay, my friend, but I’ll break it down for you,” the restaurant said. “Numbers next to each item on our menu. Those are the prices. Small portions? 2 curries & a mixed grill (for 2) is a little light for SIX.” They went on: “As for your £18.50 per person, deduct: • £3.10 for VATman • £6.50 for cost of goods, that’s before the recent increases by the way, Ian. Have you been shopping recently? • approx £5.50 towards labour (and that’s assuming they’re all on min wage. Spoiler alert. They’re not). “Leaving approx. £3.40 to pay our utility bills for the two hours you & your friends enjoyed the benefits of our air-conditioning, extraction, cooking & lighting. It’s not pretty out here & it’s most likely gonna get much worse before it gets any better. “Let’s be kind to those struggling alongside us. We’re all feeling the pinch together & no amount of new kettles is gonna fix it. Instead, channel your frustration and be vocal against those exploiting us or taking advantage during these hard times. They need to hear it most.” Speaking to the Manchester Evening News, co-owner Haz Arshad said: "It was the first restaurant that our dad set up, and we've been involved in it back from when we were in our teens. So Mughli for us was dad's business and it's a real labour of love. "People are always held to account in terms of service standards, and you'll always find a family member present, we pride ourselves on that. It's not just a chain. So you do take it a little bit personally. "Hospitality is not having a great time at the moment, and I think a lot of people are venting their frustration at the wider economy, and that's having a significant impact. There's a fight for survival. I don't think people fully understand that yet, because we're only at the beginnings of it." The restaurant has welcomed a number of famous faces over the years, including Ed Sheeran, who turned up one night with the late cricket legend Shane Warne, as well as one former Prime Minister, food writing legend Nigel Slater, Girls Aloud and actor Jared Leto.

The biggest marijuana bust of the decade was made three days ago in the Puerto Escondido area in Cabo San Román, Falcón, said General Domingo Hernández Lárez, the leader of the Strategic Command of the Bolivarian National Armed Force (CEOFANB). Hernández Lara commented on the bust from the coasts of Falcón, just a few steps from Aruba and the Venezuelan waters where the Working Force (a civilian and military body) detected the suspicious shipment. When the authorities went to investigate the vessel, the crew threw heavy objects into the water. They were presumably firearms. According to Hernández Lara, who commented on the bust while flanked by the packages of seized drugs, when officials searched the ship, they found 121 bags containing 5,063 packages of marijuana and 7 of cocaine. This amounted to 2,865,850 kg of marijuana and 7,700 kg of cocaine. PSUV: Grassroots Delegates’ Renewal is Evidence of Unity & Strength During the operation, the 12 Venezuelans who were aboard the vessel were detained. “These Venezuelans were hired by Colombians in Alta Guajira, Colombia,” noted Hernández Lara, who declared that the drugs came from the La Guajira Cartel. He then said that “they were trying to make it to Martinique.” According to the CEOFANB leader, the 12 Venezuelans were hired in Sucre and Nueva Esparta, from where they were brought to Colombia, where the logistics of the plan to transport the drugs were prepared. Hernández Lárez also showed journalists the central command of the newly formed Working Force installed in the Paraguaná Peninsula, which is comprised of Buchuaco, Tiraya, and Puerto Escondido, among others. Venezuelan Foreign Minister Faría: Washington Interested Only in Oil The island of Aruba is monitored from this command post. Hernández Lárez noted how this central command was created 11 days after President Maduro visited Falcón and ordered it to be built. “Seven days after starting to patrol the ocean, this is what we have achieved,” he said, pointing to the drugs arranged on the sea shore. “We want to formalize commerce with the nearby islands in order to prevent contraband” he said. He then briefly touched on Colombia–Venezuela relations, noting how he expects them to improve so that the two nations can “work in a united way.” Translation: Orinoco Tribune OT/KW/SL - kwjorinocohttps://orinocotribune.com/author/kwjogobonito/ - kwjorinocohttps://orinocotribune.com/author/kwjogobonito/ - kwjorinocohttps://orinocotribune.com/author/kwjogobonito/ - kwjorinocohttps://orinocotribune.com/author/kwjogobonito/ Share this: - Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window) - Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) - Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window) - Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window) - Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window) - Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window) - Click to email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)

The US National Hurricane Centre (NHC) is monitoring four weather systems within the Atlantic region. In an update today the NHC said it is is issuing advisories on Hurricane Danielle, located more than 800 miles west-northwest of the Azores, and on Tropical Storm Earl, located about 600 miles south of Bermuda. Two other systems are being observed as follows: 1. Eastern Tropical Atlantic: Disorganized showers and thunderstorms persist from the Cabo Verde Islands southwestward several hundred miles in association with a broad area of low pressure. Environmental conditions are conducive for some development of this system, and a tropical depression could form in a few days while moving westward to west-northwestward at 15 to 20 mph over the eastern and central tropical Atlantic. Upper-level winds are likely to become less conducive for development late this week. It has a medium (40 percent) chance of formation during the next 48 hours and a medium (60 percent) chance in the next 5 days. 2. African Coast: A tropical wave currently located over western Africa is forecast to emerge offshore into the eastern Atlantic in a day or two. Environmental conditions appear generally conducive for some slow development thereafter as the system moves west-northwestward over the eastern tropical Atlantic. It has a near zero chance of formation in the next 48 hours and a low (20 percent) chance in the next 5 days. The NHC will continue to provide updates.

A critical zero-day security vulnerability in QNAP's network-attached storage (NAS) devices has been actively exploited in the wild to deliver the DeadBolt ransomware variant. The vendor warned that the exploitation was first spotted over the weekend, and that "the campaign appears to target QNAP NAS devices running Photo Station with internet exposure." Photo Station allows users to centrally store and manage full resolution photos across devices via QNAP NAS. QNAP is keeping the details of the bug under wraps for now, but it did recommend in its advisory that users disable the port forwarding function on the router to help mitigate their risk (along with applying strong passwords and performing regular data backups). The discovery also prompted the company to push out an emergency firmware fix. The updated versions are: - QTS 5.0.1: Photo Station 6.1.2 and later - QTS 5.0.0/4.5.x: Photo Station 6.0.22 and later - QTS 4.3.6: Photo Station 5.7.18 and later - QTS 4.3.3: Photo Station 5.4.15 and later - QTS 4.2.6: Photo Station 5.2.14 and later The DeadBolt gang has been hammering QNAP NAS hard this year; this is only the latest campaign using bugs in the system to infect devices. Previous waves of exploitation were seen in May using known vulnerabilities, and twice in June. DeadBolt stands apart from other NAS-focused ransomware families, researchers noted earlier this year, because it deploys a multitiered scheme aimed at both the vendors and their victims, and offering multiple cryptocurrency payment options.

OAXACA, Mexico - (Satire News) - Mexico's national news agency, El Ole, has said that the workers at Fabrica Mucho Caliente, have gone on strike. The reason for the strike is because the jalapeno company has told the workers (male and female) that they have to share the same bathroom and also their 15 minute lunch period has been reduced down to 5½ minutes. The union rep for the jalapeno workers stated that the female workers do not like to have to use the urinals in the men's restroom. Also the company has now mandated that restroom breaks will not be longer than 55 seconds. And should an employee (male or female) take more than 55 seconds, then he or she will be docked an hour's pay. SIDENOTE: Fabrica Mucho Caliente has threatened to bring in strike breakers from Peru. And on the opposing side the workers union has threatened to bring in heavily armed members of Guatemala's Los Diablos Del Sur Drug Cartel.

Is the Toniebox worth it? Whether you’re watching a movie, doing homework on a computer or video chatting with grandparents across the country, our daily lives are inundated with screens. While technology is a necessity for everyday life, parents everywhere are searching for small ways they can entertain and educate kids without a screen. The Toniebox claims to be a screen-free listening experience that encourages kids’ imaginations without the use of overstimulating, flashing screens. Parents can feel comfortable letting their young children operate this music box independently, as it has safe parental settings and tactile play controls perfect for little hands. Plus, its portable design is convenient for taking on the go. To see whether the Toniebox lives up to its claims, we put it to the test. Here’s what we found. Testing the Toniebox We asked a parent to test the Toniebox for several weeks and utilize each feature. While our tester had no prior experience with children’s music or storytelling speakers, their child was familiar with the Toniebox characters and songs. What is the Toniebox? According to Tonies, the Toniebox is your lovable storytime friend. It’s a screen-free music and storybook player without flashing lights and unsightly buttons. The soft and squishy cube encourages cuddly playtime and learning. Unlike a Bluetooth speaker or smart speakers, which have access to thousands of songs and audiobooks, the Toniebox only lets children access specified songs and stories with their favorite Tonie characters. Plus, parents have access to additional control settings in the app, such as maximum volume and access rights. The Toniebox is designed to be a low-tech listening device kids can manage independently while eliminating parental uncertainty and worry. Toniebox price and where to buy The Toniebox is available on Amazon. It retails for $99.99. How to use the Toniebox The Toniebox requires a quick and straightforward setup to connect to Wi-Fi and the Mytonies app. You’ll need to set up a Mytonies account, which is necessary if you want to create a personalized Creative-Tonie. Setup took us less than 10 minutes from start to finish. The Toniebox has up to seven hours of battery and comes with an easy-on, easy-off charging station. Controlling the Toniebox is intuitive and kid-friendly. You can increase the volume by pressing the tall rubber ear and decrease it by pressing the shorter ear. Patting the side of the music box will skip a track, while tilting it left or right will rewind and fast-forward. The tactile play controls are suited for children of all ages and offer a sensory experience. To choose the songs or stories, simply place one of the hand-painted, magnetic characters called Tonies on the top of the cube. For example, a Paw Patrol Tonie plays the show’s theme song and an engaging story, while the Cookie Monster Tonie plays songs children are familiar with from Sesame Street. When purchasing the Toniebox, you can choose between several different colors or begin with a starter set. Each set comes with its own variety of Tonies that feature between 15-60 minutes of content, and you can also purchase individual Tonies separately. Examples of available Tonies include characters from “The Little Mermaid,” “Pocahontas,” “Toy Story,” “The Lion King” and more. There’s also a Creative-Tonie that allows you to record your own songs or stories. Toniebox benefits Aside from a cool aesthetic, we loved how many Tonies there are to choose from and appreciated each figure’s stories and music options. In our experience, the Toniebox is an excellent screen-free entertainment option that will help children learn independence. Parents never have to worry about what their kids are listening to with the control settings included. Its portability is one of the highlights of the Toniebox and the main reason this device quickly became our favorite toy. Whether our little one was eating breakfast, putting on shoes, playing outside or in the car, the Toniebox went everywhere with them. It doesn’t need Wi-Fi after the initial setup and has a headphone jack for quiet listening with headphones. You can tell the company created the Toniebox with children in mind. From durability to ease of use, it’s entirely kid-friendly. Our Toniebox even took an accidental tumble outside and survived with no issues. Toniebox drawbacks One of the most significant drawbacks is the lack of a Creative-Tonie in the starter set. We recommend choosing a starter set with a Creative-Tonie or purchasing one separately, as it’s an excellent feature. While we think the sound quality is suitable for a children’s speaker, it doesn’t rival a high-end speaker, and we wished the volume went louder. A few users had trouble connecting it to their specific router. While it wasn’t our experience, it’s something to keep in mind. The Toniebox currently only has Tonies available in English and German, which we feel can be improved. Also, keep in mind that each Tonie has less than an hour of content. Should you get the Toniebox? Overall, we believe the Toniebox lives up to its claims of being a screen-free storytelling and music device easy enough for children to operate independently. This cute kids’ speaker is intuitive, fun and grows with your child as their tastes change and mature. Based on our experience, we recommend the Toniebox to anyone with children, especially those looking for screen-free entertainment to encourage children’s independence. Consider other products With a subscription to Amazon Kids+ or Spotify Kids, your child can ask Alexa to play their favorite songs or read a soothing bedtime story. Plus, it can do much more, including setting a morning alarm or helping with homework. Sold by Amazon This creative audio player uses content cards loaded with audiobooks, educational activities and popular children’s songs. Plus, a grandparent or family member can record their voice on a personalized audio card. Sold by Amazon If you’re searching for an excellent screen-free entertainment device, the Jookie Music Player is portable, durable and has up to eight hours of battery life. You can make playlists from Spotify or program your personalized MP3 audio files. Sold by Amazon Want to shop the best products at the best prices? Check out Daily Deals from BestReviews.

GEORGETOWN, Colo — The summit of Mount Evans is now closed to vehicular traffic. The uppermost portion of the Mount Evans Scenic Byway closed for the season starting Tuesday from mile marker 9 to mile 14 to all motor vehicles. The U.S. Forest Service (USFS) said visitors can still book reservations to visit Mount Goliath Interpretive Area (mile 3) and Summit Lake Park (mile 9) as weather allows until Oct. 2. Mount Evans reservations are required and should be booked in advance at recreation.gov. USFS said late-season tickets are offered at a reduced rate of $10. Visitors who arrive without a reservation will need to return to a place where they can get a cell phone signal to secure a timed-entry ticket. Visitors with reservations can park at Summit Lake and bike or walk to the summit if weather conditions allow, but the road will be closed to motorized vehicle traffic due to unpredictable fall weather. Snow, freezing temperatures, and unsafe travel conditions can arrive quickly on the road to the summit. The summer of 2021 marked the first season that timed-entry reservations were required for visitors wanting to drive the 15 miles to the top of Mount Evans. USFS said public feedback has been positive with a reduction in crowding and parking issues at popular sites on Mount Evans. Mount Evans Scenic Byway, the highest paved road in North America, is jointly managed by the USDA Forest Service, Denver Mountain Parks and the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT). > Top stories curated daily just for you!

By Chinelo Obogo Recently, Nigerians living at the City of California in United States organised a town hall meeting to create a synergy on the growth and development of the country ahead of the 2023 general election. The primary responsibility of government is the protection of lives and properties of her citizens, build and provide social amenities, jobs and cater for the basic needs of her citizens. At the moment, the candidate of the Labour Party (LP) Mr. Peter Obi, has a groundswell of support called the ‘Obidient Movement’ propelled mainly by young people who say they determined to see the end of bad leadership in Nigeria. Speaking on his political drive for 2023 and what he and his team will do to transform the nation while addressing a packed audience at the Beverly Hilton Los Angeles flag-off of his US speaking tour, Mr. Obi said the vision and mission is to give full expression to “our democracy by moving our country from consumption to production. According to Obi, “When we moved education from 26 to number one in Anambra. We didn’t change the teachers but rather we invested money in education the first year, it didn’t change we invested the second time and still didn’t change but after studying what happened. I decided we can’t manage it, so it has to go back to those who owns the school and we funded it until our efforts paid off.” Obi assured that he would not joke with education if elected the next president of Nigeria in 2023. He also vowed to increase electricity generation in Nigeria, or quit as president after his first term. Obi, who flew in from Toronto, Canada, listed countries that had doubled their power supply in a few years to include Egypt, which he recently went to understudy, and lamented that even the president of South Africa, which produces 50,000 megawatts of electricity, had just declared a state of emergency in the sector for being too little but Nigeria, which produces a paltry 4,000 megawatts for over 200 million people, has not. He challenged the enthusiastic Nigerians in America to hold him accountable when he comes to power to deliver on what he promised. Obi, whose speech was interrupted with applause and chants of “Obi” said no one was asking for perfection but at least leaders should show direction and efforts. Also speaking during the meeting, Senator Annie Okonkwo said that Obi is the most qualified candidate among all the people contesting the presidential election. “What has kept Nigeria where it is today is corruption and we need a bold leader like peter Obi to rescue the country from the hands of people who doesn’t mean well for Nigeria. “The Obidient Movement has not been seen in Nigeria before now. Sometimes, I wish the campaign starts today so that I can see those people campaigning for those candidates, they will hide their faces in shame because it will be very glaring to them at the direction Nigeians are moving to because the people are tired of bad leadership. “Jesus said in the Bible to take away the stone and He shouted with authority Lazarus, and he slowly hobbled out. So, what we need to do in Nigeria today is bigger than remove the stone. We are going to elect Peter Obi to remove the stone so that our children future will be bright. We can build a new Nigeria that we can all be proud of. “Peter Obi has done it before. He has done it in Anambra State, so it is not a rocket science. It is easier to rule Nigeria than to govern Anambra State. The most important thing is to have someone who will dedicate and commit himself for the job and I have no doubt that Nigerians have found that leader and that is Peter Obi. “We do not need to be afraid. A lot of people will tell you that they are going to rig the election, no, they can’t rig the election. I have been in politics for over three decades, if you are not a popular candidate you cant rig election. We all have a big role to play to get things right,” Okonkwo added.

A candidate for city council wants to build a lift bridge that would connect Toronto’s Port Lands to the Islands. The proposal came from April Engelberg, a candidate for Spadina-Fort York. “I’ve been talking to a lot of people while working on the campaign and what I’ve noticed is people’s top priority is park access,” she told CTV News Toronto over the phone. “Given that the Rail Deck Park is not happening the way we initially envisioned because the city doesn’t own the air rights and given that Ontario Place is getting redeveloped in a way that favours the private sector…this is an opportunity for Toronto to make available its massive, largest public park to all Torontonians for free.” The idea would be to build a 250-metre bridge for pedestrian and cyclist use connecting Ward’s Island to the Port Lands. Engelberg says a pedestrian could walk the bridge in a minute or two while a cyclist could get across in under that time. The bridge would also have the capacity to lift and allow large shipping or cargo vessels to pass through the area. Engelberg says she’s done a lot of research to ensure the proposal is possible and estimates the infrastructure could cost between $10 million and $15 million depending on which level of governments pitch in. As it stands now, residents wanting to visit the Islands have to take a ferry across Lake Ontario at a cost of about $9 for an adult return trip. “Our ferry system is old, expensive and slow,” Engelberg said while adding that Torontonians should be able to access the Islands for free. “It’s about making the most equitable use of the green space that city actually owns.” Toronto's municipal elections are scheduled to be held on Oct. 24.

Dominic Raab: The high-profile casualty of Liz Truss´s cabinet reshuffle Dominic Raab has become a high-profile casualty as incoming prime minister Liz Truss puts together her new cabinet. Lasting less than a year in his latest position of deputy prime minister, lord chancellor and justice secretary, the 48-year-old who backed Rishi Sunak to be the next Tory leader reportedly admitted this week it was likely he would face the sack. The Esher and Walton MP since 2010 is also believed to have said he thinks he has a 50/50 chance of holding onto his constituency seat at the next election. In a tweet on Tuesday afternoon, he said: “Thanks to the brilliant MoJ team for all their hard work over the last year. Good luck to the new PM and her team. I look forward to supporting the government from the backbenches.” Mr Raab’s tenure heading up the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) followed his demotion from foreign secretary in September last year after widespread criticism of his handling of the Afghanistan crisis, marking a setback in his political ambitions. He was on holiday in Crete in August last year as the Taliban swept across the country and was seen relaxing on a beach on the Greek island as members of the militant group entered Kabul, although he insisted he was in touch with officials and ministerial colleagues. Mr Raab had designs on the Tory leadership in 2019, although he fell at the second hurdle and subsequently backed Boris Johnson. But when the then-Prime Minister was admitted to hospital with coronavirus in 2020, Mr Raab, as first secretary of state, found himself effectively leading the Government during some of the darkest days of the pandemic – a role later formalised by being granted the title of deputy prime minister. Dominic Raab came under fire for being on holiday amid a crisis on his watch, with criminal barristers voting for an all-out strike as he was on leave (Stefan Rousseau/PA) He came under fire yet again this year for being on holiday amid a crisis on his watch, with criminal barristers voting for an all-out strike as he was on leave in Surrey with his family. Again, aides insisted he was in regular contact with MoJ officials. During his almost 12-month stint at the department, Mr Raab decided to personally review requests to move high-risk offenders to open jails. He also called for a “fundamental overhaul” of the Parole Board, arguing the case for altering the process was “clear and made out” as he vowed to “enforce public safety”, after several prisoners were controversially freed despite an outcry. However his plans to shake up UK human rights laws were condemned by critics as a “systematic gutting of key legal protections”. The Bill of Rights, previously described as a replacement to the Human Rights Act, would add a “healthy dose of common sense” and curtail “abuses” of the system, Mr Raab said. Announcing a series of legal reforms which could pave the way for the first victims’ law in a bid to provide better support and increase the conviction rate, he promised to put the “needs and voices” of victims “firmly at the heart of the justice system”. But Mr Raab leaves his post at a time when many see the justice system as being in crisis while high court backlogs in cases waiting to be dealt with remain. Industrial action by members of the Criminal Bar Association (CBA) continued for a 22nd week, with the barristers now on a continuous strike until there is a change in the government’s position on their conditions and pay. The Karate black belt, who was a Foreign Office lawyer before turning to politics, was previously known to play up his image as a Brexit hard man in an attempt to win support from the Tory right. Dominic Raab lost his job as foreign secretary as Boris Johnson reshuffled his Cabinet last year (Jeff Gilbert/Daily Telegraph/PA) In 2018 he quit his Cabinet role as Brexit secretary in protest against Theresa May’s approach to the issue. His political career suffered an early setback, with Mrs May taking particular offence at his description of some feminists as “obnoxious bigots” in a 2011 online article in which he attacked the “equality bandwagon” and said men were getting “a raw deal”. During the 2019 leadership contest, he said he would “probably not” describe himself as a feminist although he was “all for working women making the very best of their potential”. In 2020, at the height of Black Lives Matter protests, the married father-of-two suggested “taking the knee” was a symbol of subjugation which originated in TV drama Game Of Thrones, adding he only kneels for “the Queen and the missus when I asked her to marry me”. He was challenged on his comments again in December last year when he appeared before the Joint Committee on Human Rights for the first time since becoming justice secretary. In a frosty exchange, Mr Raab insisted he was an “ardent champion of equality” after then chairman Harriet Harman told him to “eat his words” for branding feminists “obnoxious bigots”. The son of a Czech-born Jewish refugee who fled the Nazis in 1938, Mr Raab was brought up in Buckinghamshire and studied law at Oxford University before switching to Cambridge for his masters. He competed in karate for 17 years, winning two British southern region titles, and making the UK squad. Mr Raab also enjoyed boxing at university and claims it has been “pretty good in terms of preparing me for other big moments”, although “nothing has ever wracked me with nerves quite the same way”. The senior Tory denied claims, made by his former diary secretary in 2018, that he insisted on the same Pret A Manger lunch every day. The “Dom Raab special” apparently consisted of a chicken Caesar and bacon baguette, superfruit pot and a vitamin volcano smoothie.

Leaders of the Teamsters union told CNN they are already prepared to strike despite the union’s contract with UPS ending in 11 months. A potential strike of UPS employees could cause renewed challenges for the nation’s supply chain. The union’s leader Sean O’Brien told CNN that it has already collected $300 million in union fees and is prepared to pay members in case they go on strike. “Do our members wake up every day wanting a strike? I’d say no. But are they fed up? Yes they’re fed up,” O’Brien told CNN last week. “Whether or not there is a strike, that’s totally up to the company. We’re going to utilize as much leverage as we can to get our members the contract they deserve.” CNN reported that most Teamsters voted against ratifying the current contract in 2018, but leadership opted to enact the agreement with UPS. The union said not enough members participated in the vote to trigger a strike. The company’s 534,000 employees generated $97.3 billion in revenue in 2021. CNN said an estimated 6% of the United States’ gross domestic product moves through CNN. Competing delivery services would only be able to absorb a fraction of UPS’ shipments if a strike were to proceed. UPS CEO Carol Tome told investors that it is making contingency plans, but CNN reported that the company’s contract is a competitive one given current labor challenges. UPS employees have not gone on strike since 1997. The New York Times reported that the 15-day strike cost UPS $600 million in business. One of the major issues in the 1997 strike was the number of full-time positions that had become part-time.

A federal judge in Florida ruled Monday in favor of appointing a special master to review documents seized during a search of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, which drew top secret among other classified records. US District Judge Allyn Cannon wrote that the seizure of the documents was a scandal “in a league of its own” because of Trump’s status as a former president and any future charges would “damage his reputation”. Trump’s legal team requested a special master to ensure the government is not privy to documents protected by the attorney-client privilege, but the Justice Department argued that it has taken steps to review the cache for privileged documents. Here’s what you need to know about the special masters and how they fit into the federal investigation of Trump.

What does a special master do? According to the Legal Information Institute, a special master usually performs some specific actions at the court’s direction, which are “as varied as the actions taken by the court.” The special master appointed in Trump’s case will oversee the Justice Department’s review of documents seized from Mar-a-Lago, removing any privileged material that may have been picked up in the search. Special Master:Judge allows special master to review documents from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, stalls DOJ probe What are some examples of specific master uses? Special Masters have dealt with a range of cases, from Divorce and child custody cases for The aftermath of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. After the September 11 attacks, Washington attorney Kenneth Feinberg was appointed special master of the September 11 Victim Compensation Fund, where he was responsible for disbursing government funds for death and injury claims related to the attacks. is the subject of his work Netflix biopic “Worth,” In which the role of Feinberg is played by actor Michael Keaton. In 1997, a judge ruled in Microsoft v. The United States appointed a special master to advise courts on technical issues and investigate claims, such as Microsoft’s suggestion that Windows would be slowed down if Internet Explorer were removed, according to the Legal Information Institute. In a case similar to Trump’s, a special master was appointed to oversee a document review in the federal investigation of the former president’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen. Cohen’s legal team argued at the time A special master’s appointment is required to ensure that documents covered by attorney-client privilege were not reviewed by the government. They also claimed that the appointment of a special chief would “protect the integrity of government investigations from the toxic partisan politics of the time.” According to the Legal Information Institute, special masters also often appear in original jurisdiction cases involving boundary disputes between states decided by the Supreme Court. Listen here:Judge Orders Mar-a-Lago Special Master, Deadly Earthquake in China: 5 Things Podcast Why does Trump need a special master? Trump’s legal team filed a lawsuit in August to block continued review of classified documents taken from his Mar-a-Lago property until a special master is appointed to ensure potentially privileged material is protected from scrutiny. In the filing, the former president’s lawyers argued that the search was political and overly broad because it authorized FBI agents to “seize boxes of documents merely because they are physically found among other items allegedly within the scope of the warrant.” What was the DOJ’s stance? The Justice Department claimed the appointment of a special master would hamper the government’s investigation, which has already found evidence of obstruction in the handling of classified records. The agency also said that federal authorities have already assigned a so-called “privilege review team” to sort through and exclude material that may not be relevant or information that may be privileged, noting that authorities have already A “limited set of materials” was identified. May contain information protected by attorney-client privilege. DOJ’s Perspective:DOJ says it’s ‘likely’ Mar-a-Lago documents were withheld and attempted to obstruct investigation What effect does the judge’s ruling have on the DOJ’s investigation? In the same ruling approving the appointment of a special master, US District Judge Allyn Cannon called for a temporary halt to the federal investigation until a document review is completed. A Florida judge asked Trump’s team and administration to submit potential candidates for the special chief role by Friday. What will happen next? The Justice Department told USA TOAY it is reviewing the decision. “The United States is investigating the opinion and will consider appropriate next steps in the ongoing litigation,” department spokesman Anthony Coley said.

UPS facing possible workers strike within the next year Labor experts say a massive strike could be brewing within the next year at UPS, the world's biggest package courier CNN—Labor experts say a massive strike could be brewing within the next year at UPS, the world’s biggest package courier. It comes ahead of a high stakes showdown between the company and the Teamsters, one of America’s oldest labor unions. Their current contract is set to expire at the end of July 2023. Contract negotiations between UPS and the teamsters are set to begin in the spring. But before talks have even started, experts are predicting the company’s drivers and package handlers will end up going on strike. It would be the largest strike against a single business in US history and would affect nearly every household in America.

SIBLEY, La. (KTAL/KMSS) – A Sibley man is facing terrorizing charges, and a local church is reviewing its security plans after a disturbing incident during Sunday services. It happened toward the end of the sermon during the morning service at Sibley Missionary Baptist Church, according to church member and off-duty Minden police officer Jared McIver. What stood out immediately, McIver says, is that the man came in through the front door and slowly made his way down the aisle all the way to a front row seat. “That is very odd in itself because most everyone that is late sits towards the rear of the building as to not disturb the rest of the program,” McIver recounted in a Facebook post early Sunday afternoon. “The pastor was preaching and the service was almost over. The man looked straight ahead, then downwards, and then started nervously fumbling with his hands. No one had ever seen this man and it was apparent very quickly that folks in the Congregation were on edge.” On its own, that behavior might have been nothing more than a man “under conviction.” But what happened next prompted McIver to share it as an example of why it is so important for every church to have a security plan. McIver, a 35-year member of Sibley MBC, says several men who are authorized to concealed carry inside the church began “signaling each other to start strategically, quietly and methodically position ourselves in a manner as to not draw any attention to the man.” “As the invitation was given the man went to the front alter and began praying and holding his hands up in the air. Again no judgment here because it is a common thing to see folks worshipping God, praying, and holding their hands up. After the invitation was given the man started praying out loud. The things he was saying were in a very mad aggravated yelling voice. Growling with his words as if angry. The church service was now over and the man is still kneeling there. Everyone starts quickly nervously making their way out of the building and the men of the church are listening and monitoring what is transpiring. This man starts angrily saying things such as, ‘We need to kill off all of these so-called Christians and kill everything and crush them.'” It was then that McIver called the sheriff’s office, which responded within minutes. Deputies slipped into the sanctuary and took the man into custody after seeing and hearing his behavior for themselves. McIver says the way the man responded to deputies who asked him why he said what he said was just as disturbing as his violent prayers. “He said, ‘Well, it’s not illegal to pray out loud,'” McIver recalled, noting that the man did not appear to be concerned about whether it was right or wrong to call for the deaths of others. Deputies arrested the 47-year-old man on a charge of terrorizing and booked him into the Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center. Bond has not been set. Webster Parish Sheriff Jason Parker says the church did the right thing by calling law enforcement. “We want to keep our citizens safe,” Parker said. “If anything looks out of sort, it’s okay to call us. Let us respond and see if it’s legitimate.” “There are several different (what if) scenarios that could have taken place,” McIver said in his Facebook post. “It definitely has heightened our awareness and will cause us to tighten our security measures for the future.” McIver, who is also running to become Minden’s next chief of police, tells KTAL NBC 6 News he is sharing the story to spread awareness. “I believe all churches need security in place today. Churches can be considered a soft target to some criminals that wanna hurt people and hurt themselves. Just having that security gives the congregation peace of mind, gives the pastor peace of mind, and folks wanna to come here and worship peacefully.”

This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate Harry Styles will never be just a singer-songwriter, he's now an actor and a fashion powerhouse as well. The former member of British pop boy band “One Direction” has shed his musician’s skin for the male lead role alongside Oscar nominee Florence Pugh in the highly anticipated dystopian thriller film “Don’t Worry Darling," directed by Olivia Wilde. The film had its buzzy world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival on Monday, taking the internet and the world by storm with behind-the-scenes controversies and most of all, fashion. Styles arrived on the Venice carpet dripping in a navy blue Gucci suit with bold broad shoulders and a very peaked collar, Sarah Karmali, executive editor (digital) at Harper’s Bazaar, described to The Associated Press. Laura Jordan, fashion & lifestyle features director at Grazia magazine, said Styles' partnership with his stylist Harry Lambert has created “absolute magic." "(Styles' fashion) always got this kind of retro bit camp vibe. He loves the big collar, the tinted shades, lots and lots of Gucci," Jordan said. In 2018, Styles began to build his personal style and brand by becoming one of the ambassadors for the Italian fashion house Gucci. Styles has worn the brand in several editorial campaigns but more noteworthy was the dress he sported for the November 2020 Vogue cover. The musician-actor was the fashion magazine's first solo male cover star. The highly talked about cover depicted Styles in an open green field under clear skies and dressed in Gucci's Alessandro Michele-designed blue dress that was lined with black lace for a pop of contrast, multiple ruffled tiers and to top it all off — a classic black blazer. Since his transition from member of a boy band to a solo artist with multiple bestselling albums, he has become synonymous with a flamboyant signature look — a colorful array of oversized 70s-inspired three-piece suits and jumpsuits with flared bellbottoms and an occasional feather boa, mimicking the likes of Elton John. Each outfit for his “Love On Tour 2022,” which currently includes an impressive 15-day residency at New York's Madison Square Garden, sparks a pattern — literally. Exclusively dressed in Gucci every night, Styles has worn a different pattern-filled two-piece jumpsuit ranging from stripes to dots, all in different colors like bright hues of red, pink, blue and yellow. If there is a takeaway from Styles' personal wardrobe evolution, it is that it's personal, eclectic and most of all, fun. “Harry Styles knows exactly who Harry Styles is,” Jordan said. ___ Cristina Jaleru in London contributed to this report.

Global trafficking racket: 14 Sri Lankans among 23 held in Kerala’s Kollam Talking to the Hindustan Times, Kollam city police commissioner Merin Joseph said these illegal migrants were moving in small batches from one place to another to avoid detection and they stayed in different places as tourists in the past two weeks. The Kerala police arrested 14 Sri Lankans and 9 refugees from the island nation in the past two days from south Kerala’s Kollam for allegedly trying to migrate to Australia and Canada in fishing boats. Talking to the Hindustan Times, Kollam city police commissioner Merin Joseph said these illegal migrants were moving in small batches from one place to another to avoid detection and they stayed in different places as tourists in the past two weeks. “It seems an international trafficking racket is behind it. We have identified some local people who helped them. We have some leads on the vessel they were planning to board. A clear picture will emerge only after detailed investigation,” she said, adding the arrested were charged under different sections of the human trafficking act and foreigners’ act. “Initially intelligence wing of the Tamil Nadu police Q Branch provided us some intelligence leads. We are sharing information with them. We have identified some more batches and local people who helped them. More arrests will be there in coming days,” she said. On Monday 11, people were arrested after a tip off from the Q Branch. Two natives of Trincomalee - Antony Kesavan and Pavithran - had arrived in Chennai on tourist visa on Aug 19. Later, they were reported missing and Q Branch located their location in south Kerala and alerted their Kerala counterparts about a possible migration racket. During questioning, some of them reportedly told police that they were shifted to Kerala after their plan to board a fishing vessel from Karaikal port in Puducherry failed. They said most of them paid 3 lakh to 10 lakh Sri Lankan rupees to agent called Lakshmana in Colombo so as to ensure their smooth trip to Canada or Australia by shipping boats from the southern coast of India. Police suspect more people are staying discreetly in other parts of the state and alerted all district police superintendents. Police suspect that they took Kerala coast after heightened vigil along Tamil Nadu coast after economic unrest in Sri Lanka. In July, Sri Lankan navy had arrested 64 persons, mostly of Tamil origin, suspected to be trying to illegally migrate to Australia in a fishing trawler. In 2019, 41 people including women and children from Sri Lanka seem to have left for Australia in a fishing boat from Munambam port in Kochi. Police came to know about their voyage after they recovered some bags reportedly abandoned by them. After police alert a joint team of Navy and Coast Guards started a joint operation to trace the fishing boat but by that time it reportedly crossed the Indian waters. Traffickers had taken an unnoticed port to dodge authorities. Documents recovered from the dumped bags showed voyagers stayed around Kochi in groups of ten and some of them reached Kochi via New Delhi. During the unrest in Sri Lanka (between now eliminated LTTE and government forces) trafficking was rampant but it came down drastically after peace was restored in the island. But present economic unrest triggered another flow, recent incidents show.

A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than October 25, 2022. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases.

Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers. DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's business operations and prospects. Specifically, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) lenzilumab was less effective in treating hospitalized COVID-19 patients than defendants had represented; (2) as a result, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") was unlikely to approve the lenzilumab Emergency Use Authorization ("EUA") and the ACTIV-5/BET-B study was unlikely to meet its primary endpoint; (3) accordingly, lenzilumab's clinical and commercial prospects were overstated; and (4) as a result, the Company's public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

The New York Giants haven’t been shy in trying to add talent in the offseason from two specific NFL teams — the Baltimore Ravens and of course, the Buffalo Bills. Due to Giants defensive coordinator Don Martindale’s ties to Baltimore, the Giants signed safety Tony Jefferson and Chuck Wiley to the practice squad. Both played under Martindale when he was the Ravens’ defensive coordinator. After former Bills executive Joe Schoen was named Giants general manager and former Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll was named head coach, several players followed in the offseason, including veteran lineman Jon Feliciano, and quarterback Davis Webb. The Giants have also scooped up former Bills players including Olaijah Griffin, Nick McCloud and Jack Anderson. Bleacher Report’s Brent Sobleski has a “bold” trade proposal he thinks would give the Giants a weapon on defense. He wrote on Saturday, September 3 that the Giants could trade for 31-year-old safety Jordan Poyer, who’s entering the final year of his contract with the Bills. In the proposed deal, the Bills would receive both a fourth-round and a fifth-round pick from the 2023 NFL Draft. “Poyer is a first-team All-Pro and wants to be paid like one,” Sobleski wrote. “The 31-year-old is also heading into the last year of his current contract. In any contract negotiation, teams are paying for what a player will do in the future, not what he’s already done. Since Poyer is about to enter the 2022 campaign without a new deal, the Bills should consider moving the versatile defender.” Poyer Profile Since arriving in Buffalo in 2017, Poyer has been a force to be reckoned with. He’s totaled 18 interceptions, 36 passes defensed, six forced fumbles, 10 sacks and 519 tackles in that span. The Bills have even made the postseason in four of the first five years that Poyer has been with the franchise. In 2021, he showed even larger qualities. He racked up 93 tackles, five interceptions, nine passes defensed and three sacks while helping the Bills capture a second straight AFC East division title. He received first-team All-Pro honors for the first time in his career. During the offseason, Poyer has been expecting a payday before he enters the final year of his contract. However, it didn’t help his case when he hyperextended his elbow during training camp, forcing him to miss the preseason. Poyer brought his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, to training camp, but no new deal has been put forward. During a Sept 1 press conference, Bills general manager Brandon Beane was asked about an update on the progress of a potential Poyer extension, “No update. That’s probably the best I can say,” he said, according to ESPN’s Alaina Getzenberg. It feels unlikely that the Bills will trade Poyer, with one day to go before the season opener against the Rams Thursday. The All-Pro safety is also expected to be ready when the Bills face the defending champion Los Angeles Rams in Week 1, via ESPN. “I expect to be out there, as long as there’s no setbacks,” Poyer said on August 29. “It feels really good right now, I’ll continue to work every single day to try to get to 100% for the first game.” Why the Trade is Extremely Unlikely There’s a reason why the trade was considered “bold.” While the Giants were ranked 23rd last season in points given up, Xavier McKinney, Julian Love, rookie Dane Belton, recent waiver claim Jason Pinnock and Nick McCloud are the team’s safeties on the 53-man roster. There’s a possibility of Belton being inactive in Week 1 as he’s missed the preseason while recovering from a broken collarbone. ESPN’s Field Yates reported Tuesday morning that the Giants restructured Leonard Williams’ contract, and in the process, helped create $11.92 million in cap space. This move should put the Giants’ roughly $5.22 million under the cap, per SB Nation. The Giants are still trying to more moves to help the cap number before the Sunday season opener. Despite the obvious Bills-Giants connection, trading for Poyer isn’t likely for the rebuilding Giants.

Gautam Adani's rise to 3rd richest came as stock jump topped 1,000% Topics Gautam Adani | richest indians | Adani Group First, Gautam Adani became the richest person in Asia. Then his net worth surpassed those of Warren Buffett and Bill Gates. Now he's approaching a level of wealth only rivaled by Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk. During a year in which many fortunes around the world have crumbled, his net worth has nearly doubled, increasing $64.8 billion to $141.4 billion and making him the third-richest person on the planet, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. His surging fortune is due in part to the jump in oil and natural gas prices, which has lifted the MSCI World/Energy Index to a 36% total return in 2022, compared with an 18.4% loss for the broader gauge of global stocks. But even in a period of big gains across the industry, Adani’s firms stand out above the rest, with some share prices more than doubling this year. It’s attracting fresh scrutiny to the valuations of his companies, the leverage embedded throughout his business empire and his ties to India’s government. His Adani Green Energy Ltd. and Adani Total Gas Ltd. trade at more than 750 times profit, while Adani Enterprises Ltd. and Adani Transmission Ltd. have valuations north of 400 times. By comparison, Musk’s Tesla Inc. and Bezos’s Amazon.com Inc. have price-to-earnings ratios of about 100, while fellow Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Industries Ltd. trades at 28 times.

Frankfurt, Sept. 6, (dpa/GNA) - Pilots from Germany’s Lufthansa airline have decided on a second round of strike action, the union Vereinigung Cockpit (VC) said on Monday night. The union said Lufthansa could avert the action, set to start on Wednesday, with a “serious offer.” Another negotiation meeting will take place Tuesday, according to media reports. Pilots already paralyzed Lufthansa’s core operations on Friday after negotiations on a new wage deal failed to produce a result. “We very much regret that the union is continuing on the path of escalation,” a Lufthansa spokesperson said following the announcement. The strike was set to affect passenger flights departing from Germany on Wednesday and Thursday while Lufthansa’s cargo subsidiary was set to be affected from Wednesday to Friday. The all-day pilot strike on Friday brought most flight operations to a halt, resulting in stranded passengers, packed customer service counters and legal squabbles. Some 130,000 passengers were affected by the cancellation of more than 800 flights. The aviation giant said the action cost it 32 million euros (31.8 million dollars). The strike will apply solely to Lufthansa and Lufthansa Cargo departures from German airports for legal reasons. Lufthansa subsidiaries such as Swiss, Austrian, Brussels and Eurowings were not included in the strike. GNA

On September 7, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) plans to host the annual event to announce the new iPhone, amongst other products. The event typically occurs in early September, allowing Apple to release the latest smartphone prior to the end of the FY, allowing for sales to easily flow during the holiday period. My investment thesis remains negative on the stock due to valuation and the event to unlikely include the announcement of new key AR/VR products. Apple is expected to announce an iPhone 14 lineup of four models (Pro, Pro Max, Max, and base model). As well, the tech giant could announce new versions of the Apple Watch and a new AirPods Pro product. Though, the company isn't expected to announce the new mixed reality headset in a huge disappointment. The iPhone continues to generate 50% of total sales and outshines all other products and Services by a long shot. With Apple not expected to sell more units this holiday season, the market has latched onto hopes the tech giant will successfully raise prices by up to $100. Analyst Wamsi Mohan has speculated that a $50 hike to the Pro-model would provide a $0.20 tailwind to EPS. However, some indications suggest Apple might be required to raise prices in order to cover higher storage costs. Investors shouldn't assume that any price hikes are necessarily going to drop to the bottomline with the iPhone 14 Pro models expected to start with 256GB of storage. The new iPhone is purported to include camera updates, improved sensors and larger batteries improving processor performance. The smartphone continues to evolve, but the improvements in this model aren't revolutionary like the 5G chip included in the iPhone 13 version from last year. iPhone sales got a huge boost from last year with the delay of iPhone 12 sales into FY21 and the inclusion of the 5G chip the following year. The combination with some covid pull forward demand created a scenario where Apple will have a very difficult time topping iPhone sales from the last year no matter how spectacular the technology improvements to the new smartphone lineup. The current FQ4 sales aren't meaningful to the Apple story considering the iPhone launch is always so late in the quarter with around a week worth of sales included in the September quarter. Consumers wanting a new iPhone typically wait until after the launch pushing most of the sales into the FQ1 holiday period. For FQ1'22, Apple saw iPhone sales balloon to $71.6 billion, up 9% from the $65.6 billion the prior FQ1. The biggest hurdle is likely the FQ2 numbers where Apple grew revenues 5% last year to $50.6 billion from the FQ2'21 quarter where sales surged 66% to $47.9 billion. The largest two iPhone quarters of each year have the largest hurdles due to the dynamics created by covid and the 5G launch last year. If Apple can top these quarterly sales numbers, the tech giant will have truly done an impressive job. Unfortunately, the stock continues to be priced for perfection where Apple needs to easily exceed these high hurdles. Not only does Apple need to raise the Pro model prices by $50 to $100 each, but the company needs to restrict cost increases. A lot of consumers seem unwilling to purchase the Pro models with price increases pushing the price tag above $1,000 for the base storage models. The average Apple product gross margin is ~34%. On an average price increase of $100, the tech giant would normally only capture $34 in additional gross profit as an indication of the higher costs faced by the new iPhones. With all else being equal where Pro model sales remain strong despite an additional $100 price tag, Apple would definitely be better off by each iPhone generating $34 in higher gross profits. Of course, the operating expense base would have to stay flat in order for these higher profits to not just easily be absorbed. Analysts currently forecast FQ1'23 sales to rise just 3.6% with EPS flat at $2.12 per share. While analysts like Wamsi Mohan of Bank of America and Dan Ives of Wedbush Securities are promoting higher earnings and higher price targets, the numbers aren't actually flowing into higher consensus estimates. The consensus estimates don't have Apple returning to material EPS growth until 7% in FQ3'23. The lack of revolutionary new products such as the new AR device will provide much boost to a stock already trading out of line with the actual growth expectations. The key investor takeaway is that Apple continues to trade based more on hype than reality despite the recent $20 dip in the stock. Apple is a safety trade for a lot of investors, yet the stock is one of the most expensive ones on the market right now.

By Dennis Peprah Duayaw-Nkwanta (A/R), Sept. 6, GNA – Dr. Freda Prempeh, the Member of Parliament for Tano North, has donated assorted medical devices and equipment valued to the Duayaw-Nkwanta St John of God Catholic Hospital in the Ahafo Region. The items comprised medical refrigerators for drugs, temperature control, electric gynecological and delivery beds, ward screens, weighing scales, patient ad vital sign monitors, patient trolleys, ventilators, infusion and syringe pumps, infra-red thermometers, and autoclave machines. Dr. Prempeh, also a Minister of State in-charge of Works and Housing, presented similar items comprising bed cabinets, foldable hospital beds, examination lights, ECG, suction and ultrasound machines, needle destroyers, and haemoglobin meters to the Tano North Municipal Directorate of Health for onward distribution to the health facilities in the Municipality. Speaking at separate presentation ceremonies held at Duayaw-Nkwanta, Dr. Prempeh said she had prioritised matters of health and would ensure easy accessibility of quality healthcare services delivery by the populace in her constituency. She expressed concern about the emerging pressure at the Hospital due to population growth, and assured to construct more Community-based Planning Services (CHPS) Compounds in the Municipality to bring healthcare services delivery to the door steps of the people. Dr Prempeh said she had already constructed more than 10 CHPS compounds, saying very soon construction works on some on-going one would be completed and handed over to the communities. The MP said she was hopeful that the medical equipment would not only enable health workers in the area to deliver prompt and quality healthcare services to the people, but also well positioned the Municipality to achieve Universal Health Coverage. Dr. Prempeh said she was working tirelessly to ensure that the Yamfo Health Centre was upgraded to a hospital status, and, therefore, urged the health workers to work in tandem with high ethical values and professionalism. She entreated the Health Directorate to ensure at least all the CHPS Compounds in the Municipality received and used medical devices for their intended purposes. Dr Asamoah Boakye, the Medical Officer of the St John of God Catholic Hospital, thanked the MP for the gesture and expressed appreciation for her unflinching support towards the provision of healthcare services in the area. He explained since the MP adopted the Hospital’s Pediatric Unit, neonatal mortality had decreased drastically, and expressed the hope that she would continue to provide the facility with modern equipment. Dr. Asamoah said the incubators at the Unit were not enough and thus appealed to the MP and other philanthropists, corporate and charitable organisations for more of it and also a child-friendly ambulance. At the Municipal Health Directorate, Mrs Eva Aryee, the Tano North Municipal Director of Health Services described the MP as hardworking, faithful and illustrious daughter of the area, saying her commitment to quality healthcare services delivery remained unparalleled.

BAPS’s activities in France have grown over the past 50 years, reflecting the warm, collaborative relationship between the European nation and India. By: Shubham Ghosh A historic foundation stone-laying ceremony of a new Hindu temple being constructed by BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha – an international socio-spiritual organisation affiliated to the UN — was held in Bussy-Saint-Georges near Paris, France, on September 3 and 4. Yann Dubosc, mayor of Bussy-Saint-Georges; His Excellency (HE) Jawed Ashraf, ambassador of India to the Republic of France and Principality of Monaco; Ylias Akbaraly, chairman and CEO of the Groupe Sipromad and president of the Board of Thomson were present on the occasion besides hundreds of guests from various parts of France and other European countries, and India. Europe’s first traditional purpose-built temple is being constructed at the Esplanade des religions et des cultures – the multi-faith and multicultural heartland of Paris. It will promote culture, integrity, and harmony. Paris is home to some of the world’s most iconic monuments and beautiful buildings. The new temple, described as an “architectural masterpiece”, will supplement the rich array of architectural beauty and artistic expression, and become an ambassador of Indian culture and wisdom, bringing the ancient art and science of traditional Indian architecture to the country. The ancient Vedic ceremony signified the start of the temple’s construction. It was accompanied with a vibrant cultural programme of dance, videos, and presentations delivered in French and Hindi which explained the positive and uplifting contribution that the temple will make to France. HE Ashraf said while addressing the assembly, “This magnificent temple makes Paris part of the global network of cities that can boast of a BAPS Swaminarayan temple. The temple will not only serve as a place of worship but will be a living centre of learning, humanity, culture, and a centre that provides refuge to all who feel a sense of despair and despondency. The temple will shape a future of peace, harmony, co-existence – not just of tolerance but the embrace of diversity and pluralism that makes this world so beautiful.” Dubosc said, “There are projects that mark a life. This mandir is one such project. In my time on earth as mayor, I will be able to tell my daughter that I have participated in the building of a remarkable place of worship! Prior to this, I did not know anything about Hinduism, but with you, I have discovered this light that enlightens humanity. There is nothing more essential in our time. May the Bussy Mandir help to enlighten humanity and reveal the best in each of us.” Akbaraly offered his gratitude to the French administration for supporting the temple and said that he felt “happiness and peace in his heart on this special day in France”. He also spoke of the noble values of peace, respect, love, and humility that the temple will inspire and how its activities such as education and de-addiction will inspire noble and purposeful lives. Sanjay Kara, project lead for the temple’s construction, added, “Temples in India have sustained and nurtured noble values for millennia. We are honoured for the opportunity to continue that legacy in the beautiful city of Paris and fulfil this vision of intercultural respect, community service and global harmony – ideals propagated by His Holiness Mahant Swami Maharaj, the spiritual leader of BAPS.”

Harry Styles will never be just a singer-songwriter, he’s now an actor and a fashion powerhouse as well. The former member of British pop boy band “One Direction” has shed his musician’s skin for the male lead role alongside Oscar nominee Florence Pugh in the highly anticipated dystopian thriller film “Don’t Worry Darling,” directed by Olivia Wilde. The film had its buzzy world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival on Monday, taking the internet and the world by storm with behind-the-scenes controversies and most of all, fashion. Styles arrived on the Venice carpet dripping in a navy blue Gucci suit with bold broad shoulders and a very peaked collar, Sarah Karmali, executive editor (digital) at Harper’s Bazaar, described to The Associated Press. Laura Jordan, fashion & lifestyle features director at Grazia magazine, said Styles’ partnership with his stylist Harry Lambert has created “absolute magic.” “(Styles’ fashion) always got this kind of retro bit camp vibe. He loves the big collar, the tinted shades, lots and lots of Gucci,” Jordan said. In 2018, Styles began to build his personal style and brand by becoming one of the ambassadors for the Italian fashion house Gucci. Styles has worn the brand in several editorial campaigns but more noteworthy was the dress he sported for the November 2020 Vogue cover. The musician-actor was the fashion magazine’s first solo male cover star. The highly talked about cover depicted Styles in an open green field under clear skies and dressed in Gucci’s Alessandro Michele-designed blue dress that was lined with black lace for a pop of contrast, multiple ruffled tiers and to top it all off — a classic black blazer. Since his transition from member of a boy band to a solo artist with multiple bestselling albums, he has become synonymous with a flamboyant signature look — a colorful array of oversized 70s-inspired three-piece suits and jumpsuits with flared bellbottoms and an occasional feather boa, mimicking the likes of Elton John. Each outfit for his “Love On Tour 2022,” which currently includes an impressive 15-day residency at New York’s Madison Square Garden, sparks a pattern — literally. Exclusively dressed in Gucci every night, Styles has worn a different pattern-filled two-piece jumpsuit ranging from stripes to dots, all in different colors like bright hues of red, pink, blue and yellow. If there is a takeaway from Styles’ personal wardrobe evolution, it is that it’s personal, eclectic and most of all, fun. “Harry Styles knows exactly who Harry Styles is,” Jordan said. ___ Cristina Jaleru in London contributed to this report.

A resourceful Japanese man has found his dream job — getting paid for “doing nothing.” Shoji Morimoto, a former publishing company worker, rents himself out to simply be there for lonely folks — once even paid just to wave goodbye to one destitute traveler. Morimoto, 38, said he charges clients about $71 for just being there, with about 4,000 bookings over the past four years — making enough money to support his wife and child. “Basically, I rent myself out,” he said. “My job is to be wherever my clients want me to be and to do nothing in particular.” His gigs have included a job simply riding a see-saw with one client at a local park, and sitting at a restaurant with a woman who feared her Indian sari would embarrass her friends if she wore it in public — so he stepped in. “With my friends, I feel I have to entertain them,” the client, Aruna Chida, a 27-year-old data analyst, said of Morimoto’s service. “But with the rental guy, I don’t feel the need to be chatty.” Morimoto’s fee — the equivalent of 10,000 yen — is his sole source of income. Before COVID-19 he was making close to $300 a day. “I started wondering what would happen if I provided my ability to ‘do nothing as a service to clients,” he said. “People tend to think that my ‘doing nothing’ is valuable because it is useful [to other people].” “But it’s fine to really not do anything,” he added. “People do not have to be useful in any specific way.” Yet Morimoto has boundaries — he won’t take requests for anything sexual, and has turned down jobs to move a refrigerator and travel to Cambodia.

Derbyshire’s pace attack put the promotion hopefuls in a strong position on the second day of their home County Championship match against Durham. England Lions fast bowler Sam Conners took 3-54 and Ben Aitchison 2-49 to reduce Durham to 222-9 at the close, with only opener Michael Jones offering any prolonged resistance with 87. All rounder Anuj Dal claimed 2-18 in 10 overs as Durham lost five wickets for 26 in the final session to trail by 84. Durham could also face a possible points deduction after Nic Maddinson’s bat was judged to be too big. Umpire Hassan Adnan tested the bat with his measurement gauge shortly after the Australian came to the middle but it…

Thunder and lightning didn't spoil a dramatic day's cycling as the AJ Bell Tour of Britain made its first ever visit to Sunderland on Tuesday. Stage three of the annual bike race finished in the city after a 163.6km route from Durham and over Chapel Fell in the northern Pennines - this saw a particularly testing climb at High Moorsley. Fans lined the roads and hundreds were wrapped up to brave the elements and watch the finish - which saw Belgian Kamiel Bonneu win from a four-man breakaway. The Belgian rider, 23, beat attacked in the final kilometre to beat Ben Perry, Alexandar Richardson and Mathijs Paasschens to the line in Sunderland city centre. The end of the race became a treacherous one as torrential rain fell. There was further drama as the overall race lead was initially incorrectly awarded to Israel-Premier Tech rider Corbin Strong. Read more: Peaky Blinders fans thrilled as star makes surprise visit to Beamish Museum It was not until two hours post-race that commissaires actually reviewed the race's outcome and found Ben Perry had in fact taken the leader's red jersey. However, with thousands in the city centre delighted to see pro-cycling return to the North East - despite the dramatic weather - the race's return to the region was a huge success.

An investigation has begun in the latest sign that the so-called war on drugs has been completely ineffective after Jaiden Malik Carter, an unarmed Black man died following a police shooting last week in Virginia, that video evidence proves was uncalled for, critics said. On Sunday (Sept. 4), 19-year-old Jaiden Malik Carter succumbed to injuries he sustained when Prince William County police officers shot him while he rode in the front seat of a car during an alleged drug bust on Thursday (Sept. 1). Carter’s family and a lawyer representing them told them there was absolutely no cause for him to be shot, let alone for officers to resort to lethal force. Video footage that was recorded by a neighbor’s Ring camera in the town of Woodbridge shows the police overreacted, Joshua Wilson, the lawyer who represents Carter’s family, told the Washington Post. “It’s another example of unnecessary police brutality,” Wilson said. “I don’t believe there was an immediate threat to the police officers, yet they still felt the necessity to shoot into a vehicle that was backing up into an area that had no exit.” Carter was shot in his head, his aunt said. “The police killed my Unarmed nephew with a head shot no questions asked!!!!” Mirza Avalos told the Post. Complete details from the shooting were not immediately available. However — of course — the police narrative differs from what Carter’s family and Wilson say. “We have said from the beginning there was exchange of gunfire, as to who was armed and fired specifically; the investigation will need to run its course to confirm details,” Prince William police spokesman 1st Sgt. Jonathan Perok said. Jaiden Malik Carter was an innocent victim of circumstance and in the wrong place at the wrong time, his family told local media outlet 7News. A protest demanding justice for Carter has been planned to take place at a local park in Prince William County on Saturday. Carter is another example of the fatal consequences following police action centered on drugs, as the world saw when Breonna Taylor was killed during a fraudulently obtained no-knock warrant to search a home in which officers incorrectly suspected the presence of a drug suspect in Louisville, Kentucky. That fiasco uncovered multiple instances of corruption and malfeasance along with a massive coverup defended by the highest level of state law enforcement in Kentucky. This is America.

LONDON (AP) — American authors Elizabeth Strout and Percival Everett are up against writers from Britain, Ireland, Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka as finalists for the prestigious Booker Prize for fiction. Strout’s symphony of everyday lives “Oh William!” and Everett’s powerful novel about racism and police violence, “The Trees,” are on a shortlist announced Tuesday for the 50,000 pound ($58,000) prize. The other contenders include Zimbabwe’s NoViolet Bulawayo, for animal fable “Glory”; Irish writer Claire Keegan’s “Small Things Like These”; and “The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida” by Sri Lanka’s Shehan Karunatilaka. British fantasy author Alan Garner — the oldest-ever Booker nominee at 87 — is on the list for “Treacle Walker.” Former British Museum director Neil MacGregor, who is chairing the judging panel, said several of the books are inspired by real events and “address long national histories of cruelty and injustice, in Sri Lanka and Ireland, Zimbabwe and the United States.” “Set in different places at different times, they are all about events that in some measure happen everywhere, and concern us all,” he said of the shortlist. Founded in 1969, the Booker Prize has a reputation for transforming writers’ careers and was originally open only to British, Irish and Commonwealth writers. Eligibility was expanded in 2014 to all novels in English published in the U.K. Last year’s winner was “The Promise,” by South Africa’s Damon Galgut. The winner will be crowned Oct. 17 at a ceremony in London.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WREG) — Her stolen truck was found, but when a Memphis woman got it back, she got more than she bargained for. “I said, Roger — my husband is Roger — I said Roger, I don’t want to keep this stuff,” Christy Pennington said. “It’s just scary to me.” He found several bags. One was a bunch of junk. Glasses, stuff like that. Then another bag was full of panties, so we chucked that not thinking anything, you know. Christy Pennington It all started June 29 in a parking lot off Front Street, where Pennington’s husband parked his 2005 red Chevy Silverado truck. “My husband went outside to go to work, and it was gone,” she said. About an hour later, police pulled up. They asked questions, combed for evidence, and put together a report. “We thought it was gone,” Pennington said. But weeks later, officers spotted the truck on Mt. Moriah Road. They say the driver, 53-year-old Stacey Hardwick, rammed a Chevy Cruze on Aug. 3 and threatened a man and woman inside the vehicle, threatening to “blow their brains out.” When police tried to pull him over, he lead them on a chase into Mississippi, ditching Pennington’s truck before he was put into handcuffs. Hardwick was wanted on 15 warrants including kidnapping, aggravated assault, convicted felon in possession of a handgun and possession of methamphetamine with intent to manufacture, deliver or sell. “When they called and told us, we were like, wow that’s something,” Pennington said. On August 11, Pennington was able to get the truck from the impound lot. She showed Nexstar’s WREG these pictures of what it looked like. “RAM” had been slapped on the back of it. The bed was full of tires and dirty tools. The inside was worse. None of it belonged to her. Pennington said right away, her husband started sifting through it. “He found several bags. One was a bunch of junk. Glasses, stuff like that. Then another bag was full of panties, so we chucked that not thinking anything, you know. Then he grabbed this bag,” she said. A red backpack contained two laptops, old credit cards, and IDs belonging to a man and two women. “I Googled these two girls’ names, and I can’t find anything on either one of them,” she said. The name of the man whose Social Security card was in the truck, Doubse Edwards — matched that of a guy who was arrested in January during a sting operation. “I look up his name and that’s when I discovered he was one of the nine that was arrested in January for human trafficking,” Pennington said. It’s not yet clear why Hardwick allegedly had the items in the truck. Investigators say Edwards had meth and crack on him when he agreed to have sex with an undercover agent posing as a 16-year-old prostitute. Pennington thought police would want to know about the items she found, so she called the police officer who did the report. He told her, “Our investigation is done. We don’t need anything. You can do what you want, basically is what he said,” Pennington explained. She also called the district attorney’s office but says the woman who answered the phone wasn’t interested either. “I said, ‘OK.’ That’s weird to me. Then I talked to you all,” she said. “It’s probably nothing. But I don’t want that to be my daughter and didn’t do something in case there was something.” Nexstar’s WREG reached out to the Memphis Police Dept. (MPD), the district attorney’s office and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. MPD said they would handle the matter. Officers asked Pennington to bring the items to the North Main precinct. She handed over the backpack and was told the items would be delivered to sex crime investigators. They would look at it to see if any of it could be possible evidence. Pennington said she’s also continuing to go through the mess and wishes she hadn’t thrown things away before realizing not everything in the truck is trash. MPD did say their officers sorted through the items in the truck and took inventory. They say they found meth and tagged saws and tools they believed to be stolen. They also said they won’t clear out a vehicle when it’s returned in case any items belong to the owner. They ask that people call the detective back if they find anything suspicious. But that’s what Pennington tried to do. WREG didn’t know why officers didn’t want these items at first. “I didn’t want to get rid of it until someone looks at it and says no, nothing there,” Pennington said. She now feels better police are taking a second look. “Let them do with it what they want. I don’t want to be responsible for any of it,” she said.

'Aus vigorous supporter of India's Indo-Pacific Oceans Initiative' New Delhi: External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Tuesday hailed Australia as "an early and vigorous supporter" of India's Indo-Pacific Oceans Initiative (IPOI) and said the relations between the two countries have shifted gears and moved into a higher orbit. In an online address to the Australia-India Leadership Dialogue 2022, the minister said a trade of over USD 20 billion and investments at the USD 25-billion level stand to rapidly expand by the Economic Cooperation and Trade Agreement concluded in April 2022. He also said Australia is a major educational destination for Indian students, who number in excess of 100,000, while the Indian community, estimated at 7.2 lakh, is a source of strength for both societies. "But it is really in the realm of politics and strategy that the transformation has been the sharpest. Much of the growing convergence has been driven by concerns about the region's stability, prosperity and security," Jaishankar said. He further said the deficit in global goods has been sought to be addressed by India and Australia working together bilaterally as well as in larger formats. "This reflects their shared concerns about respect for international law and a rules-based order. The two countries may have long interacted in ASEAN-led forums, Commonwealth, Indian Ocean Rim Association, etc. But stronger leadership and more open exchanges have brought out the mutual benefits of closer cooperation and coordination.

Current EVs generally weigh hundreds if not thousands more pounds than comparable internal-combustion vehicles due to heavy battery packs, and that might compromise road safety. So argues a recent Slate piece that suggests some of the latest EVs might pose more of a threat especially beyond the driver’s seat, to other vehicles and other users of the roadway. “The United States is already a global outlier in traffic deaths,” noting that while traffic deaths have declined in most other developed countries over the past decade, the U.S. has seen an increase of over 30%, with Americans now twice as likely to die in car crashes as French or Canadian citizens. American traffic deaths reached a 16-year high in 2021, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The agency estimated that 42,915 people died in crashes last year, a 10.5% increase over 2020. Last month, the NHTSA reported that fatalities rose 7% in the first quarter of 2022 to 9,560 deaths—the highest quarterly total since 2002. The piece links this troubling trend to Americans’ penchant for big, heavy pickup trucks and SUVs. It notes that these vehicles are primary focus of American automakers’ electrification efforts, producing vehicles with even more weight—and quicker acceleration—than their internal-combustion counterparts. The poster child of this is the GMC Hummer EV which, at over 9,000 pounds, is so heavy that it isn’t considered a passenger vehicle under federal regulations. That means it doesn’t need to meet federal standards for efficiency—or safety. Yet while it has the weight of a heavy-duty pickup, it has the acceleration of a sports car, achieving 0-60 mph in a claimed 3.0 seconds. Safety studies have underscored that bigger and heavier tends to mean safer—for those inside the vehicle. Looking entirely to those outside the vehicle, the numbers are less conclusive. Overweight vehicles can lead to other problems beyond safety. They result in more wear and tear on roads and bridges, and controversial study from the UK also points to an excess of tire emissions from the extra weight of EVs. Electric full-size pickups are definitely having their moment. General Motors plans to follow the Hummer EV with electric Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra models, and Ford is already building its F-150 Lightning. But some automakers are already attempting to counteract EV bloat. Mercedes-Benz is aiming to avoid excess weight in its upcoming EVs—and, as it puts it, a downward spiral. The Vision EQXX concept shows how the automaker aims to achieve that, using clever aerodynamics, lightweight components, and an overall emphasis on efficiency to achieve staggering range without an upsized battery pack. Some of the most efficient EVs potentially offered in the U.S. aren’t considered cars at all. Aptera, for example, is marketing a tiny electric 3-wheeler with a claimed 1,000-mile range using a combination of solar panels and battery storage. But it’s unclear whether vehicles like this will catch on, or whether consumers will stick with EVs in the form factor of vehicles they’re currently driving.

Moscow: Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday attended sweeping war games in his country’s far east involving troops from China and other nations, in a show of military muscle amid the tensions with the West over Moscow’s action in Ukraine. The weeklong exercise that began Thursday is intended to showcase growing defense ties between Russia and China and also demonstrate that Moscow has enough troops and equipment to conduct the massive drills even while its forces are engaged in fighting in Ukraine. The Russian Defense Ministry said that the Vostok 2022 (East 2022) exercise that runs until Wednesday at seven firing ranges in Russia’s Far East and the Sea of Japan involves more than 50,000 troops and over 5,000 weapons units, including 140 aircraft and 60 warships. It engages troops from several ex-Soviet nations, China, India, Laos, Mongolia, Nicaragua and Syria. Beijing sent more than 2,000 troops along with more than 300 military vehicles, 21 combat aircraft and three warships to take part in the drills, according to Chinese news reports. As part of the maneuvers, the Russian and Chinese navies in the Sea of Japan practiced joint action to protect sea communications and support for ground forces in coastal areas. The exercise marked the first time that China has sent forces from three branches of its military to take part in a single Russian drill, a sign of increasing close ties between Moscow and Beijing, which have grown stronger since Putin sent his troops into Ukraine on Feb. 24. China has pointedly refused to criticise Russia’s actions, blaming the U.S. and NATO for provoking Moscow, and has blasted the punishing Western sanctions against Russia. AP

Juul to pay nearly $440 million in states' teen vaping settlement HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) - Electronic cigarette maker Juul Labs will pay nearly $440 million to settle a two-year investigation by 33 states into the marketing of its high-nicotine vaping products, which have long been blamed for sparking a national surge in teen vaping. Connecticut Attorney General William Tong announced the deal Tuesday on behalf of the states plus Puerto Rico, which joined together in 2020 to probe Juul's early promotions and claims about the safety and benefits of its technology as a smoking alternative. The settlement resolves one of the biggest legal threats facing the beleaguered company, which still faces nine separate lawsuits from other states that are suing the company. Additionally, Juul faces hundreds of personal suits brought on behalf of teenagers and others who say they became addicted to the company's vaping products. The state investigation found that Juul marketed its e-cigarettes to underage teens with launch parties, product giveaways and ads and social media posts using youthful models, according to a statement. "Through this settlement, we have secured hundreds of millions of dollars to help reduce nicotine use and forced Juul to accept a series of strict injunctive terms to end youth marketing and crack down on underage sales," Tong said in a press release. The $438.5 million will be paid out over a period of six to ten years. Tong said Connecticut's payment of at least $16 million will go toward vaping prevention and education efforts. Juul previously settled lawsuits in Arizona, Louisiana, North Carolina and Washington. Most of the limits imposed by Tuesday's settlement won't affect Juul's practices, which halted use of parties, giveaways and other promotions after coming under scrutiny several years ago. Electronic cigarettes and pods by Juul, the nation's largest maker of vaping products, are offered for sale at the Smoke Depot on September 13, 2018 in Chicago, Illinois. (Photo by Scott Olson/Getty Images) Teen use of e-cigarettes skyrocketed after Juul’s launch in 2015, leading the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to declare an "epidemic" of underage vaping among teenagers. Health experts said the unprecedented increase risked hooking a generation of young people on nicotine. But since 2019 Juul has mostly been in retreat, dropping all U.S. advertising and pulling its fruit and candy flavors from store shelves. The biggest blow came earlier this summer when the FDA moved to ban all Juul e-cigarettes from the market. Juul challenged that ruling in court and the FDA has since reopened its scientific review of the company's technology. The FDA review is part of a sweeping effort by regulators to bring scrutiny to the multibillion-dollar vaping industry after years of regulatory delays. The agency has authorized a handful of e-cigarettes for adult smokers looking for a less harmful alternative. While Juul's early marketing focused on young, urban consumers, the company has since shifted to pitching its product as an alternative nicotine source for older smokers. "We remain focused on our future as we fulfill our mission to transition adult smokers away from cigarettes - the number one cause of preventable death - while combating underage use," the company said in a statement. Juul has agreed to refrain from a host of marketing practices as part of the settlement. They include not using cartoons, paying social media influencers, depicting people under 35, advertising on billboards and public transportation and placing ads in any outlets unless 85% of their audience are adults. The deal also includes restrictions on where Juul products may be placed in stores, age verification on all sales and limits to online and retail sales. Juul initially sold its high-nicotine pods in flavors like mango, mint and creme. The products became a scourge in U.S. high schools, with students vaping in bathrooms and hallways between classes. But recent federal survey data shows that teens have been shifting away from the company. Most teens now prefer disposable e-cigarettes, some of which continue to be sold in sweet, fruity flavors. Overall, the survey showed a drop of nearly 40% in the teen vaping rate as many kids were forced to learn from home during the pandemic. Still, federal officials cautioned about interpreting the results given they were collected online for the first time, instead of in classrooms.

Suella Braverman: Brexit-supporting barrister who has risen through Tory ranks The Fareham MP was the first person to launch a bid to become the next prime minister but later supported Liz Truss. A barrister who said the courts should stay out of politics and criticised the civil service for being too “woke” has risen through the Tory ranks to her most senior government appointment to date. Suella Braverman, who became the first person to launch a bid to become the next prime minister before being knocked out of the race and deciding to back Liz Truss, has held on to her place in Cabinet and gained a promotion to Home Secretary, taking over from Priti Patel. The 42-year-old was made the Government’s most senior lawyer in February 2020, taking the role of Attorney General amid Boris Johnson’s growing battle with the judiciary. During this time she became the first Cabinet-level minister to take maternity leave after special legislation had to be passed by Parliament to allow her to take time away from her ministerial duties. The MP for Fareham in Hampshire since 2015 studied law at the University of Cambridge, before gaining a masters at the Sorbonne in Paris. She also qualified as an attorney in New York and was called to the Bar in Britain in 2005, specialising in public law and judicial review. As a barrister she has defended the Home Office in immigration cases, the Parole Board in challenges from prisoners, and the Ministry of Defence over injuries sustained in battle. In a comment piece for the Conservative Home website two years ago, the Brexit supporter said Parliament must “retrace power ceded to the courts”. The article followed comments she made the previous year on Newsnight, where she said she hoped legal reforms would restore the principle of “judicial deference'”, adding: “Which means that our courts and our judges generally stay out of politics.” The seeds of the government’s battle with the courts were sown during the Brexit rows, when campaigner Gina Miller successfully challenged the Government over then-prime minister Theresa May’s right to trigger Article 50 without a vote in Parliament. The Supreme Court ruling in 2019 that Mr Johnson’s decision to suspend Parliament was unlawful fuelled Tory suspicions about judicial activism. Since then the Government has come under fire for seeking to blame “left-wing activist” lawyers for challenging its decisions through the courts, particularly those involving immigration and asylum cases – something Ms Patel reiterated in her resignation letter to Boris Johnson on Monday night. Earlier this year, Ms Braverman came under fire for saying she was considering whether to refer the case of four people cleared of tearing down a statue of slave trader Edward Colston to the Court of Appeal. She later defended the comments saying it was “entirely” within her remit to do so, after the acquittal prompted a debate about the criminal justice system because the defendants, dubbed the Colston Four, opted to stand trial in front of a jury and did not deny involvement in the incident. “Instead they claimed the presence of the statue was a hate crime and it was therefore not an offence to remove the statue. Ms Braverman is also said to have criticised the civil service as being too “woke”, reportedly lashing out earlier this year at the decision by the Government Legal Department to go on “divisive” diversity training at the taxpayers’ expense.
