Hot Licks Blues Festival returns to Granville for 22nd year
Downtown Granville will soon be filled with the sounds of local blues musicians.
This is the second year the Newark Organization for the Creative Arts (NOCA) is organizing the festival after taking it over from co-founders Jerry Martin and Tom Carroll last year.
NOCA President Tom Atha said the organization has committed to bringing top tier headlining talent in for the festival with performer Taj Mahal, a three-time Grammy winner, as headliner in 2021 and four-time Grammy nominee Robert Randolph and the Family Band in 2022.
"I think Tom and Jerry would say the same thing that we really have kind of stepped it up for the caliber of headlining acts for the last two years," Atha said.
Atha described Randolph has a "high-energy" headliner who has blues elements but also has a broader spectrum.
"We're excited to have a blues-focused festival this year, but to start to stretch the boundaries a little bit," he said. "He's just going to bring the house down. He is going to be unbelievable."
The rest of the lineup includes local artists from within a 30-45 mile radius, Atha said, including Carroll who is the first performer of the day.
The festival is free to attend but there are ticket upgrade options, which supports NOCA’s immersive arts education program and their facility on Church Street in downtown Newark.
The $50 VIP Upgrade tickets include access to the standing area in front of stage and exclusive beverage service while the $100 VIP Reserved Seating Upgrade includes reserved seating near stage with exclusive beverage service, VIP lanyard and festival poster.
The Church Street space, Atha said, will host workshops specifically on arts technology and employment skills in a computer lab. Atha said some classes will be specific for youth or young professionals while others will be open to a broader range of people. The classes will launch later this year.
"That's kind of our focus for what we what we feel is missing for our local community in the education space in the arts," he said.
When classes aren't in session, Atha said the space will be available for individuals to utilize via passes that can be for a single day, a month or even the whole year.
Atha said he was very interested in music and recording, but there were no local resources to help him. He sees NOCA as a way to change that for future generations.
"I ended up taking kind of a haphazard path to figure out how to be a professional musician and recording engineer and there are a lot of things that I wish I could have just asked someone rather than figure it out on my own," he said. "This space is about bringing local professionals in to connect with youth, to be a resource for mentorship, guidance, especially professional guidance. I think that's really unique about this mission."
Because of the difficulty of building new, sustainable events, Atha said the the organization has benefited greatly from stepping into an opportunity to continue the blues festival that was already so important to Granville's culture.
"Especially in the last couple years, community events like these are really a rallying moment and a celebration of your area and the people in your community," he said. "I know last year, there was just a palpable sentiment of 'we're together, you know, and we get to celebrate together.'"
East Broadway from Main to Prospect streets closes at 6:30 a.m. Sept. 10 and will reopen at midnight, Village Manager Herb Koehler said via email.
Gates open for the event at 1 p.m. The main stage, located at Broadway and Main Street, will feature live music from 2-10 p.m. on Sept. 10.
The artist lineup includes:
- Tom Carroll
- Blue Cats
- Dr. E
- Sean Carney
- The Robert Randolph Band
Food vendors include:
- Moe's Original BBQ
- Mai Chau
- Day y Noche

Texas Football Fans Are Furious With Today's Refs
Texas is on the brink of upsetting No. 1 Alabama, but that's not stopping fans from complaining about the refs.
Alabama has been flagged over 15 times in this one, but it appears the refs have missed about five or six calls. That includes a non-facemask call in a critical third-down situation in the fourth quarter.
"What is happening?! The refs are on Alabama payroll. Texas settles for a field goal after this face mask non-call. Zebras keeping it a one score game," a fan said.
Fans aren't happy the refs are keeping Alabama in this one.
"What a brutal call by the refs there at a critical moment. Bryce Young was NOT even down there. Should be 12-10 now Texas with the ball coming their way," said Bruce Feldman.
"Bama and the refs definitely on the same pay roll," wrote McKenzie Milton.
"These refs are absolute game wreckers. Good grief," said RJ Young.
"These refs are having a really, really bad day," said Danny Kanell.
The refs might be the only reason this isn't a two-score game right now.
Catch the finish on FOX.

MARIETTA, Ga. (AP) — Authorities charged a man with murder Friday in the killing of two sheriff’s deputies serving an arrest warrant on another person outside a suburban home near Atlanta.
Cobb County Police Chief Stuart VanHoozer told reporters at a news conference that the deputies were attempting to arrest a man wanted on theft charges in the driveway of his home Thursday night when another man inside confronted them with a gun.
A shootout ensued when the armed man refused commands to drop his weapon, VanHoozer said, and both deputies were fatally wounded. The shooting suspect and the man with the outstanding warrant were both arrested following a standoff with officers who swarmed the neighborhood.
The two slain deputies were identified Friday as 42-year-old Jonathan Koleski and 38-year-old Marshall Ervin.
“They were outstanding men, men of character and integrity, family men loved by their families and their kids,” Cobb County Sheriff Craig Owens told a news conference.
Both men arrested at the scene made initial court appearances Friday afternoon.
Christopher Golden, 30, was charged with two counts of felony murder and two counts of aggravated assault against law enforcement officers. Christopher Cook, 32, wasn’t charged in the killings. But he was booked on six outstanding theft charges.
Both men were denied bond. It was not immediately known if they had attorneys.
VanHoozer declined to give specifics of what happened during the standoff that ended with the two men arrested, the home’s front door out of its frame and windows broken. He did say there was no more gunfire after the deputies were shot and no other officers were injured.
The sheriff had previously told reporters his deputies had been “ambushed.” On Friday afternoon, he deferred questions about the shootings to the county police chief, whose agency is conducting the investigation.
VanHoozer said police had tried to be forthcoming with what they knew during an “unfolding investigation” in which they still had limited information.
Asked if he would call the shootings an ambush, VanHoozer said: “What I’ve just given you are facts. I’m not going to label it.”
Sprawling Cobb County, with more than 760,000 people, is just northwest of Atlanta and one of Georgia’s most populous counties.

Amid burnout, concern over special ed, Washington stands alone as only state with teachers on strike
Washington is currently the only state in the country with teachers on strike right now (though teachers in Columbus, OH, did strike last month). Educators in five school districts across western Washington voted to strike this year, including Seattle, Tumwater, Eatonville, Ridgefield, and Kent. Kent ended its strike after nine days, and students started school on Thursday. Teachers in Port Angeles voted to authorize a strike but reached an agreement with the district before the first day of school.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Four Republicans seeking to overhaul how elections are run by becoming their state’s chief election official said Saturday they were fighting against a corrupt system — even pointing a finger at mysterious forces within their own party.
The candidates -- Arizona’s Mark Finchem, Michigan’s Kristina Karamo, Nevada’s Jim Marchant and New Mexico’s Audrey Trujillo -- appeared at a conference inside a South Florida hotel ballroom that featured numerous speakers falsely claiming the 2020 election was stolen from former President Donald Trump.
“Our biggest enemy is our own party,” said Marchant, a businessman and former state lawmaker who was among Trump’s most ardent supporters challenging President Joe Biden's 2020 win in Nevada. “Even though we are Republicans, we are kind of the outsiders. We have a battle, but we’re not giving up.”
All are members of the America First Secretary of State Coalition, which calls for large-scale changes to elections. While not officially tied to Trump’s America First movement, it’s part of the broader effort promoting conservative candidates who align with the former president’s views.
Eliminating voting machines, mailed ballots and early voting are among their plans. The coalition also supports hand-counting of all ballots and a single day of voting for all Americans with few exceptions. They did not say whether Election Day should be a national holiday.
Many of their ideas are based on unfounded claims that voting machines are being manipulated. Nearly two years after the 2020 election, no evidence has emerged to suggest widespread fraud or manipulation while reviews in state after state have upheld the results showing Biden won.
The four are among the nearly 1 in 3 Republican candidates running for statewide offices that play a role in overseeing, certifying or defending elections who have supported overturning the results of the 2020 presidential contest, according to an Associated Press review.
Election experts say candidates who dispute the results of a valid election in which there has been no evidence of wrongdoing pose a danger of interfering in future elections. They warn it could trigger chaos if they refuse to accept or challenge results they don’t like.
With less than nine weeks before the November election, the candidates took time off the campaign trail in their own states to appear at the event, organized by the secretary of state coalition and the Florida affiliate of The America Project. The America Project was founded by Michael Flynn, the retired lieutenant general and Trump’s former national security adviser, and Patrick Byrne, founder of Overstock.com.
It was the latest in a nationwide effort to question the results of the 2020 election and promote conspiracy theories about voting machines and the workings of election offices. The forums, held for well over a year, have helped to undermine confidence in elections among broad swaths of the Republican Party.
A few hundred people attended Saturday's conference, which featured numerous panels claiming that elections are being manipulated in a variety of ways. One panel was comprised of former candidates -- Democrats and Republicans from around the country -- who sought to cast doubt on their election losses in bids to challenge elected officials in their states.
Karamo, a community college professor, gained prominence after the 2020 election for claiming she saw irregularities in the processing of handling mailed ballots while serving as an election observer in Detroit. She called the election system corrupt.
“This is not a partisan issue. It’s a liberty issue,” Karamo said. “That’s why you see people in our own party, claiming to be Republicans, trying to silence us and stop us. Even though we are the Republican nominees of this office, we have people in our own party trying to make us lose. Because they are in on it.”
A wide-ranging review of the 2020 election in Michigan by Republicans who control the state Legislature found no systemic fraud and no issues that would have changed the results. Similar reviews in other battleground states have come to the same conclusion. Dozens of court cases brought by Trump and his allies were turned away, and even the former president's own Justice Department found no evidence of widespread fraud.
Nevertheless, the Republican secretary of state candidates speaking Saturday spoke of a system they see as hopelessly corrupted.
Finchem said he did his job as a state lawmaker in calling a public hearing to discuss election concerns and noted how Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey, a Republican in his final term, dismissed the effort: “How do you like me now, Doug?” Finchem said.
He added: “We are in battle against a cartel.”
Finchem was at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, before Trump backers attacked Congress and has pushed for Biden’s win in Arizona to be withdrawn, something the law provides no way to do.
False claims about the 2020 election have led to death threats against election officials and workers, prompting some to leave the profession and raising concerns about a loss of experienced professionals overseeing elections in November.
The repeated false claims of a stolen election also have eroded confidence in U.S. elections. An Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll in 2021 found that about two-thirds of Republicans say they do not think Biden was legitimately elected.
Trujillo, a small business owner from the central New Mexico town of Corrales, said she wants the state’s officials to follow the law when it comes to elections and to increase transparency. For example, she raised concerns about the security of drop boxes used to return mailed ballots, even though there is no evidence of widespread problems with drop boxes.
She also criticized election officials for being dismissive or even condescending to voters who have doubts.
“We have questions as voters and we should get to ask them,” Trujillo said in an interview after speaking as part of the panel. “We shouldn’t feel like, ‘OK, we can’t ask that because it’s taboo and we’ll look like we’re trying to question the elections.’ Because the integrity needs to be there. It needs to be very transparent.”

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — There likely will be a moment Sunday — maybe a few — when Robert Saleh looks up into the stands at MetLife Stadium and is reminded of how many lives were instantly changed 21 years ago.
Including his own.
Saleh’s New York Jets will open the NFL regular season against the Baltimore Ravens at home — just across the Hudson River from where hijackers crashed two planes into the World Trade Center during the 9/11 attacks.
Football will be played Sunday, but all the cheers won’t mean anyone has forgotten. Certainly not Saleh, whose oldest brother, David, narrowly escaped the south tower that day.
There were 2,750 others in lower Manhattan who never went home.
And chances are, many of the fans rooting for the Jets — in the stands and at home — to beat Lamar Jackson and the Ravens on Sunday have been mourning personal losses since that day.
“There’s no doubt. It’s amplified because it is 9/11 in this city,” Robert Saleh said. “Not so much for me, but for the people who are in the thick of it. Obviously, I know it’s documented about my brother, but I heard stories this week about the cars being at (the Meadowlands) for months afterward because no one could pick them up. And then the Long Island train stations and the tragedies that led up to this.”
Saleh was only 22 on Sept. 11, 2001, and just starting out in the financial business in Detroit. His brother was training as a financial adviser in New York City.
As Saleh and his family watched on TV as the attacks unfolded there, Washington, D.C., and Shanksville, Pennsylvania, they prayed, hoped and begged for David to be OK.
Several agonizing hours later, David called.
He made it.
Robert, who thought he lost his big brother, immediately began contemplating his own life and career path. After a few more months trudging through the financial world, the former college tight end knew he needed to chase his dream.
He wanted to be a coach.
That two-decade journey began at Michigan State and brought him to Central Michigan, Georgia, the Houston Texans, Seattle Seahawks, Jacksonville Jaguars and San Francisco 49ers before he became an NFL head coach for the first time last year with the Jets.
“I’m supposed to be here and I believe that God does things for a reason,” Saleh said after he was hired. “And I believe this is one of them.”
His debut with the Jets last year — Sept. 12 at Carolina — coincided with the 20th anniversary of the terrorist attacks.
This year, he’ll be standing on the sideline in a stadium filled with fans predominantly from the New York/New Jersey area exactly 21 years since that day.
“I think it’s very personal for a lot of people and I think that passion is felt country-wide, not just in New York,” Saleh said Friday. “But it’s a little bit more important here and you know that (Sunday) means a lot more than just a football game to a lot of people in the stands.
“That’s why I think that’s what’s going to make Sunday pretty cool.”
Sports became a method of healing and a source of unity when they returned to stadiums across the country a few weeks after the attacks.
And they have continued to do so in the years since, particularly during the days surrounding the anniversary. That’s something not lost on Ravens coach John Harbaugh.
“We’re going up to New York, going to be in the Meadowlands, it’s going to be 9/11,” Harbaugh said. “It’s a great honor to be chosen to go up there and play on 9/11. We take it very seriously, that part of it.
“We know the environment, we know how loud it’s going to be, we know how enthusiastic they’re going to be, their demeanor. They’re going to be into it. We have to match that as best we can.”
There will be poignant moments of silence before the game.
And very likely some tears.
A 100-yard American flag will be unfurled on the field by members of the New York Police Department, New York City Fire Department and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey Police Department.
The Jets will then begin a new game day tradition by having fans sing the national anthem. It will be led by NYPD officer Brianna Fernandez, whose late father, Luis, was a 23-year veteran of the NYPD who helped in the rescue and recovery efforts.
A stadium again will be filled with voices united by tragedy and bonded by football.
“I know y’all like to tailgate. I would appreciate it if you all get out there early, get in there early,” Saleh said, directing his message to the fans. “I would love if everyone sang the national anthem. Don’t just listen to it, just sing it.
“I think it’s the coolest thing when the stadium sings it. I think it’s going to be electric.”

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Lance Mackey, one of mushing’s most colorful and accomplished champions who also suffered from health and drug issues, has died.
The four-time Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race winner died Wednesday from cancer, his father and kennel announced on Facebook. He was 52.
Officials with the world’s most famous sled dog race said Iditarod Nation was in mourning.
“Lance embodied the spirit of the race, the tenacity of an Alaskan musher, displayed the ultimate show of perseverance and was loved by his fans,” officials said in a statement.
The son of 1978 Iditarod champion Dick Mackey and brother of 1983 champion Rick Mackey, Lance Mackey overcame throat cancer in 2001 to win an unprecedented four straight Iditarod championships, from 2007 through 2010.
It wasn’t just the 1,000-mile race across Alaska where he excelled. During his Iditarod run, twice he also won the 1,000-mile Yukon Quest International Sled Dog Race between Canada and Alaska with only two weeks' rest between races.
But after the string of wins, he was beset by personal problems, health scares and drug issues that prevented him from ever again reaching the top of the sport.
The treatment for his throat cancer cost him his saliva glands and ultimately disintegrated his teeth.
He was then diagnosed with Raynaud’s syndrome, which limits circulation to the hands and feet and is exacerbated by the cold weather that every musher must contend with in the wilds of Alaska.
In the 2015 race, he couldn’t manipulate his fingers to do simple tasks, like putting booties on his dogs’ paws to protect them from the snow, ice and cold. His brother and fellow competitor Jason Mackey agreed to stay with him at the back of the pack to help him care for the dogs.
It was a life-changing blow for Lance Mackey, who knew no other lifestyle.
“I love this sport,” he told an Iditarod TV crew during that race while choking back tears. “I can’t do it no more.”
Documentary filmmaker Greg Kohs spent two weeks with Mackey during the 2013 Iditarod, filming “The Great Alone.” He was waiting in the tiny, remote village of Takotna for Mackey to arrive, and he was encouraged to go there because village residents make amazing pies to serve the mushers as they come through the race checkpoint.
“I realized Lance Mackey was a lot like a piece of pie. Once you got a taste of his story and personality, you wanted to share it with others,” he said in a statement issued after learning of Mackey’s death.
“And like a homemade pie, the tin is often dinged up, and the crust might not look perfect, but inside is a delicious recipe richened by time, wisdom and soul,” Kohs wrote.
Whether he won or lost, or when talking about problems, Mackey was always transparent.
“That honesty is what allowed him to be fearless,” five-time champion Dallas Seavey told The Associated Press on Thursday. “He didn’t have to see himself in a different light than he actually was.”
Seavey said Mackey gave it everything, racing to the limit.
“If it didn’t work, it didn’t work, and that was fine by him,” Seavey said. “It made him a heck of a competitor.”
Another musher, four-time Iditarod champion Jeff King, said Mackey was a fabulous competitor.
“He will be missed and always remembered as a great dog man,” King said.
After his string of first place finishes, Mackey dropped back in the standings, finishing a career-worst 43rd in 2015. The next year he scratched and didn’t race the Iditarod again until 2019, when he placed 26th.
In the 2020 race, his last, he carried his mother’s ashes in his sled to the finish line in Nome to honor her, but he was later disqualified after testing positive for methamphetamine. He entered rehab on the East Coast.
Before the Iditarod began drug testing in 2010, Mackey also acknowledged using marijuana on the trail.
Months after the 2020 race finished, his partner Jenne Smith died in an all-terrain vehicle accident. They had two children.
Last month, he told the Iditarod website that an examination after a car accident discovered more cancer, and he thought treatment had taken care of it. “But came up with some other issues that aren’t gone and seem to have moved rapidly and left me in the position I’m in at the moment,” he said, noting he was on oxygen and had lost 30 pounds.
When asked if he was fearful, Mackey responded: “I’m not fearing nothing. You know, it is what it is, but I’m not any different than the rest of the people on the planet. When it’s my bus stop, I’ll get off.”
He also used the opportunity to apologize to his fans for his past problems.
“I’m still, like never before, embarrassed and ashamed and disappointed,” he said following his disqualification.
He said he knew he had lost fans and wasn’t looking to change their opinion of him.
“I am truly sorry for the many embarrassing moments, but I’m also grateful for the support that I also received from a lot of the same people,” he said.
DeeDee Jonrowe, a retired musher who had known Lance since he was a junior musher, went through cancer treatments about the same time as Mackey.
“I admire him for what he fought through, but I’m really sad for the fact he wasn’t able to survive the dysfunction of it all,” she said, noting the loss of mother, partner and the substance abuse, which didn’t help the cancer treatments.
“He’s a legend,” Jonrowe said. “But I don’t think he would want anybody to follow his lifestyle footsteps. He would wish that they would learn from the stumbles that he made.”

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — An emotional Harrison Ford appeared along with a new trailer for the fifth Indiana Jones film, cast members from “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" showed footage from their forthcoming sequel, and trailers and details were unveiled from the widening TV presence of the “Star Wars” galaxy on Saturday at the D23 Expo.
An arena-sized audience gave a standing ovation to Ford, co-star Phoebe Waller-Bridge and director James Mangold after the trailer was shown at a presentation from Disney divisions Marvel, Lucasfilm and 20th Century Studios at the festival at the Anaheim Convention Center, next door to Disneyland.
“Thank you for making these films such an incredible experience for all of us,” the usually stoic Ford said, choking up at times. “I’m very proud to say to say that this one is fantastic.”
He pointed to Waller-Bridge and said, “this is one of the reasons.”
The 80-year-old Ford suggested this would be his last time donning the hat and holding the whip of one of the two characters that made him famous.
“This is it," he said, as shouts of “no” came from the crowd. "I will not fall down for you again.”
The 37-year-old Waller-Bridge said Ford showed no signs of slowing down, saying “I had the time of my life making this movie,” and “keeping up with this guy is exhausting.”
The trailer shows Ford cracking that whip in front of a group of heavily armed henchmen with Waller-Bridge at his side.
The film, whose title has yet to be announced, is set for release on June 30, 2023. It also stars Mads Mikkelsen, Toby Jones and Antonio Banderas, and is the first in the franchise not directed by Steven Spielberg.
Angela Bassett and Winston Duke were among the cast members who presented part of “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever," which is set for release on Nov. 11.
The sequence shows a team trying to steal some of the nation of Wakanda's precious substance vibranium, and a Wakandan team beating them back.
It has not been clear how the film would deal with the death of the title star of the first film, Chadwick Boseman, who died of prostate cancer in 2020.
But the footage acknowledged that his character T'Challa had died, and suggests that his sister Shuri, played by Letitia Wright, might be the next Black Panther.
“We had to meet his level of excellence, and we did,” Bassett said.
Neither the “Indiana Jones” trailer nor the “Black Panther” footage were released outside of the convention hall.
Marvel also announced cast members of the forthcoming Phase 5 films from its cinematic universe, “Captain America: New World Order” and “Thunderbolts.”
Anthony Mackie will take up the familiar shield as Captain America in the movie slated for a May 2024 release, as he did at the end of the television series “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier,” and he'll be joined by Tim Blake Nelson as central villain the Leader. Danny Ramirez and Shira Haas will play heroes alongside Mackie.
Marvel's team of antiheroes “Thunderbolts" will include role reprisals from Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova, Sebastian Stan as the Winter Soldier and David Harbour as Red Guardian. Wyatt Russell and Julia Louis Dreyfus also appear in the film set to be released in July of 2024.
Pedro Pascal and the cast of “The Mandalorian” unveiled a trailer and new details for the series' third season and Diego Luna did the same for the forthcoming series “Andor" as Lucasfilm and the “Star Wars” galaxy deepens its television presence with no big screens in sight.
“You are a Mandalorian no more,” Pascal's title character is told in the trailer for the new season, a penalty for his having removed his helmet and showed his face.
The trailer shows the Mandalorian and his baby-Yoda sidekick Grogu zipping through space, and suggests an increased role for “Battlestar Galactica” star Katee Sackhoff and her character Bo-Katan Kryze, who first appeared in season two.
Carl Weathers and Giancarlo will both reprise their roles, and “Back to the Future” star Christopher Lloyd is joining the cast. The show is set to premiere in February.
In a different Lucasfilm galaxy, a trailer was unveiled for the forthcoming TV series “Willow,” based on the 1988 Ron Howard fantasy film. Christian Slater was announced as a cast member, and appeared live to talk about it.
“I love the fantasy, the sci-fi, just getting to be a part of this show was, I will be honest with you an absolute dream come true,” Slater said. “This was a very fun character.”
The character was described only as someone aiding in a quest who is a friend of Madmartigan, the rogue adventurer played by Val Kilmer in the film.
The trailer brings epic echoes of “Lord of the Rings," with original “Willow” actor Warwick Davis leading a group of teen adventurers in cloaks on a magical mission.
All the shows will stream on Disney+.

In her lecture presentation which centred on topics such as; tackling threats to the safe learning environment, major security challenges in schools, access control systems and the role of stakeholders in schools, she made it known to participants that the squad will soon embark on visits to schools across the State for training and enlightenment of students on the need to be security conscious, security preventive measures to take as students and how they can report to appropriate security agencies when in danger.
While seeking the full cooperation of all the participants, the female Squad Commander added that the training has created an avenue to engage one another and brainstorm ideas and plans aimed at redefining the essence of the creation of the unit.
At the end of the training, participants expressed their satisfaction and appreciation to the Commandant General for setting up the female Squad, pledging to key into the wonderful initiative of having a threat-free school learning environment.

Policymakers need to stop legislating for mediocrity and turn their focus to ridding communities of “rescuers”, according to newly-elected Federal Senator Kerrynne Liddle.
Ms Liddle, an Arrernte businesswoman, journalist and educator from Central Australia, won the final Senate spot for South Australia in the May Federal election.
Her ascension to office marked the first time an Indigenous woman had been elected to represent South Australia in the Federal arena.
Delivering her maiden speech to the Federal Senate on Wednesday, Ms Liddle said Indigenous organisations needed to be held to the same standards as other services.
Ms Liddle used the example of aged care, where she said the lack of independent executive oversight of Aboriginal community controlled services baked into legislation responding to the Royal Commission fell short of expectations.
MAIDEN SPEECHES
- Jacinta Nampijinpa Price – Country Liberal Party, NT Senate
- Jana Stewart – Labor Party, VIC Senate
- Marion Scrymgour – Labor Party, NT House of Represenatives
- Gordon Reid – Labor Party, NSW House of Representatives
“Despite caring for the most vulnerable of the most vulnerable, clients with multiple and complex chronic illness and lower life expectancy and in the most isolated regions, there is no expectation of even partial transition to a model that satisfies that standard,” she said.
“I want our country to think different, act different, demand different, push away from the pressure of sameness, the rejection of discourse, the perils of groupthink, reject overpolicing of language, cancel culture and aggressive social media commentary.
I want this country to stop doing what doesn’t or won’t work, to have higher expectations, to be tolerant of mistakes and missteps, and to admit when we get it wrong and celebrate when we get it right.”
On employment, Ms Liddle said the private sector was leading the way in providing job opportunities for Indigenous people, citing her former employers Ayers Rock Resort and Santos as standout examples.
Drawing further on her personal experince, Ms Liddle also took aim at the scrapping of the cashless debit card, which she said had been driven by those “screaming human rights” while ignoring residents of the trial sites.
“It gives power and respite to the most vulnerable men, women and children and the elderly—yes, those who need it most—and it is those people, not the drinkers and drug users, not the abusers, who will suffer the most from its withdrawal,” she said.
I’ve looked after a child—hello, Joe—now a man who has who has fetal alcohol syndrome, never able to live with his parents.
“His family and the families who raised him couldn’t be more proud of him.
“And yet, another child, again from a remote community who lost his mother to alcohol-fuelled dysfunction now lives forever with the consequences of that.”
Ms Liddle said “rescuers”, “controllers” and those seeking “cultural immersion” were the real problems in communities, not liquor controls.

Utilityman Aledmys Díaz is “tentatively” scheduled to rejoin the Astros in Detroit on Tuesday for the second of three games against the Tigers, Astros manager Dusty Baker said Saturday.
Díaz is currently on a minor-league rehab assignment and will play back-to-back games for Class AAA Sugar Land on Saturday and Sunday before he is evaluated for a return to the big league club. He has not played for the Astros since he injured his left groin on Aug. 16 while trying to catch a fly ball.
Díaz went 0-for-3 with a walk while starting at shortstop in his first rehab game with Sugar Land on Thursday at Round Rock. He did not play on Friday, a planned rest day.
Odds and ends
- Baker said lefthander Framber Valdez and righthander Hunter Brown will start the first two games in Detroit. The starter for Wednesday’s finale was not yet announced.
- Justin Verlander, on the 15-day IL with a right calf injury, will throw another bullpen session Sunday after he threw around 30 pitches in his first bullpen on Friday.

The Coolest Vanity Apps for You and Your Girls
What’s possible in a week? If you dedicated seven days to the achievement of one goal, how ambitious could you make this goal? These were the questions that the multilingual friends Katy and Sara posed themselves when they determined to learn English in one week, to prove that it can be done and anyone can do it with the right methods.
They would attempt to liberate themselves from the distractions and responsibilities of modern-day life in order to cram eight hours of study time and I was observing some of the world’s most capable language learners at work.
The friends set themselves the challenge of learning a language in a week in order to stretch themselves, and then it was a question of choosing which language to learn. English presented itself as a natural option; there are nigh on 300,000 English speakers in Germany’s capital, and the areas are dotted with stores adorned with signs in English.
“Truly understanding one’s environment requires one to first understand English”
The first operational step in the friends learning process was to decorate the entire apartment with sticky notes. This had an almost ceremonial touch to it as the friends delved into dictionaries and proceeded to label everything with its corresponding English name.
Within the space of about an hour it was impossible to carry out any menial task, be it making a coffee or flicking off a light switch, without first being presented with at least three different words related to this action.
The importance of the other twin’s presence became immediately apparent as Katy and Sara delegated responsibilities for rooms to decorate with sticky notes. This simple task was augmented by continuous little tests that they would spring on one another, and the fact that they split up their day slightly differently and studied different topics meant that each twin became a source of knowledge for the other.
The most extraordinary moment came towards the end of the week!
The friends simply switched their everyday conversations to English, asking one another if they wanted tea or coffee, were ready to cook dinner or when they were going to leave the house.
Katy and Sara had numerous micro-challenges throughout the week. On the first day they were visited by a English friend who greeted them in English and complimented them on how quickly they’d picked up their first words and phrases.
They then learned the names of fruits and the numbers from one to a billion so that they could visit the English market (although they refrained from purchasing nine hundred thousand kumquats). Displaying their haul after their first functional exchange in English, they beamed with pride and a palpable sense of accomplishment before marching back home to study further.
On our second visit to the brother’s apartment 24 hours into the week, we found them sampling dozens of different kinds of English snacks.
Like kids staring at the backs of cereal packs before heading to school, the nutritional information and various special offers and competitions on the packaging were analysed during snack breaks.
There was no moment of complete removal from the language learning process during the eight hours that the friends had allotted to it.
They were constantly using their existing knowledge to support the ever-growing knowledge of English, this being the root of their success.
“you will likely come across words that share common origins with your native tongue”
The friends spent a lot of time engrossed in books or on their computers and apps, flicking and swiping their way through exercises eagerly, but at other times they were to be found searching busily for English radio stations and write-ups of English football games on the web.
There is no definitive method to learn a language fluently
All too often, people enter their weekly language class to converse with their teacher, but then barely have any contact with other speakers and that’s not enough.
The old saying that we can solve problems more effectively when we sleep on it may be especially true if the problem we’re trying to solve is learning a new language.
Researchers from two Swiss universities wanted to know if they could enhance the learning of words from a foreign language by exposing people to the words during non-rapid eye movement sleep the deep, dreamless sleep period that most of us experience during the first few hours of the night.
To find out, they gathered two groups of study participants, all of whom were native German speakers, and gave them a series of Dutch-to-German word pairs to learn at 10 pm. One group was then instructed to get some sleep, while the other group was kept awake.For the next few hours both groups listened to an audio playback of the word pairs they’d already been exposed to and some they hadn’t yet heard.
The researchers then re-gathered both groups at 2 am and gave them a test of the Dutch words to uncover any differences in learning. And indeed there was a difference:
“The group that listened to the words during sleep did better at recalling the words they’d heard”
The simple yet potent trick the researchers employed is known as verbal cueing, and this isn’t the first claim made for its success while sleeping. But what makes this study different is that it puts a finer point on the conditions necessary for this trick to actually work namely, it only works when we’ve already been exposed to the verbal cues before we sleep.
The researchers added a techie dimension by conducting electroencephalographic (EEG)recordings of the sleeping participants brains to track neural electrical activity during the learning period.
They found that learning the foreign words overlapped with the appearance of theta brain waves, an intriguing result since theta is the brain wave state often associated with heightened learning while awake (usually we’re in either the high-frequency, high-alertness alpha or beta states while awake, but it’s thought possible to induce theta state slower in frequency than alpha and beta through concentration techniques).

The Stunning Story The Bold And The Beautiful Fans Predict For Brooke And Liam
"The Bold and the Beautiful" fans have certainly seen the good, the bad, and the downright ugly when it comes to Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang). She's committed some of the worst sins on the soap, including sleeping with her daughter's husband, her daughter's high school boyfriend, and even her sister's husband. Also, "The Bold and the Beautiful" fans can't seem to keep up with all the times that Brooke has been married on the show. As much as she loves her husband Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye), she somehow finds herself kissing other men in this fictional town of Los Angeles that she lives in.
Katherine Kelly Lang, who portrays Brooke on the small screen, says that despite all of the weddings she's had in her past, it was her first one to Ridge that was the most memorable. She told Entertainment Tonight back in March, "I still remember the first wedding that I had to Ridge on the beach, riding a horse down. Trotting in and getting off with this, it was kind of like a Cinderella dress. It was just very romantic and very much like Cinderella."
And while Brooke can't decide on whether or not she wants to stay married to Ridge or continue her flirtatious affair with her ex Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan), there's a stunning story that fans are now predicting for Brooke and her son-in-law, Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton).
Are Brooke and Liam getting closer?
There's close and then there's too close. There's speculation that Brooke Logan might be getting a little too close for comfort with her son-in-law, Liam Spencer, as his wife Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) seems to be spending more time with Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson) these days as they are trying to figure out a new custody arrangement for his son, Douglas Forrester. A lot of fans have even made it clear that they are either on Team Hope or Team Thomas.
In a new "The Bold and the Beautiful" teaser on Twitter, Brooke seems to be confiding more and more in Liam. This has prompted a lot of fans to wonder what might be going on between the two of them and what might be on Brooke's agenda. Some comments have included, "Briam is spending a lot of time together which could lead to things," along with, "Hmm, it is never good when Brooke is spending this much alone time with the spouse of one of her female kin. Particularly a daughter." Someone else also commented, "Briam spends more and more time alone and generally when Brooke confides too much in a son-in-law or a brother-in-law, it's never very good. It ends with a kiss or in bed."
That said, Hope needs to pay attention to what's going on before she accidentally finds her mother in bed with her husband!

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- ClaimsFiler, a FREE shareholder information service, reminds investors that they have until October 31, 2022 to file lead plaintiff applications in a securities class action lawsuit against Abbott Laboratories (NYSE: ABT), if they purchased the Company's shares between February 19, 2021 to June 8, 2022, inclusive (the "Class Period"). This action is pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois.
Abbott investors should visit us at https://claimsfiler.com/cases/nyse-abt-1/ or call toll-free (844) 367-9658. Lawyers at Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC are available to discuss your legal options.
Abbott and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.
On February 17, 2022, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") announced that its inspection of the Company's Sturgis, Michigan facility, prompted by consumer complaints of infant illness, had yielded several positive contamination results for the Cronobacter sakazakii bacteria, linked to infant illnesses and death. On the same day, the Company, without mention of the FDA investigation, recalled certain infant formula products, including the popular brands Similac, Alimentum and EleCare, all manufactured in Sturgis. On this news, shares of Abbott declined by $3.79 per share, or 3.14%.
Then, on March 22, 2022, the FDA reported that, although not "final FDA determinations," its most recent inspection conducted between January 31, 2022 and March 18, 2022 revealed that the Company failed to establish process controls "designed to ensure that infant formula does not become adulterated due to the presence of microorganisms in the formula or in the processing environment" and failed to "ensure that all surfaces that contacted infant formula were maintained to protect infant formula from being contaminated by any source." On this news, shares of Abbott declined by an additional $4.97 per share, or 4%.
Finally, on June 8, 2022, it was reported that a whistleblower complaint identifying numerous serious examples of misconduct at Sturgis related to the above had been filed with the U.S. Occupational Safety & Health Administration ("OSHA") in February 2021, and that OSHA had delivered that complaint to Abbott Laboratories and the FDA during the same month.

Captain Amy Jones praised England’s confident display with ball and bat in a dominant nine-wicket win over India at Chester-le-Street.
Sarah Glenn took four wickets before opener Sophia Dunkley struck a half-century as England eased to victory in the first game of the Vitality T20 series.
Jones was leading the side after stand-in skipper Nat Sciver withdrew from the camp to focus on her mental health, feeling “emotionally fatigued”, and opted to field in damp conditions after rain had delayed the start.
Leg-spinner Glenn produced a fine display with the ball, claiming four for 23, including the wicket of India captain Harmanpreet Kaur as the visitors were restricted to 132 for seven.
Dunkley survived an early lbw dismissal off a no-ball and was dropped by Shafali Verma in the fifth over, but was soon in the groove as she plundered an unbeaten 61 off 44 balls, including eight boundaries.
Danni Wyatt made 24 before she was stumped by Richa Ghosh and Alice Capsey then helped see England home at 134 for one with seven overs to spare.
“First game of the series it is really important to start confidently and the girls did that, so it was brilliant to see,” Jones said.
“I am very quiet in all aspects of life to be honest. The girls know that it (captaincy) is not necessarily something which comes naturally to me, and the girls all stepped up which made it so much easier.
“Lots of the girls chipped in as we went, Sophie (Ecclestone) is vice-captain for this series and has been brilliant. I just sort of tried to take in the information and to read the game.”
Jones added on Sky Sports: “We thought we kept them to a good score, the pitch was a bit skiddy, so we knew we would have to go out there and play straight and the girls did that brilliantly.
“It was fantastic to see them win so convincingly, and to finish that off so confidently is brilliant for us going forwards.
“It is an unbelievable top three and if they get off to a good start we can just keep coming at teams.”
India captain Kaur was not happy with the conditions.
“We were not able to get as many runs as we were expecting,” she said. “I just felt it was not 100 per cent conditions to play, but still I am happy we put in the effort.
“You need to have team-mates who can play in whatever conditions and I am really happy we put that in.
“The ground was so wet, there were so many chances to get injured and one of our players did, she was our main bowler, so we were one bowler short.
“But I am really happy the way the girls came in and tried to do 100 per cent. We are here to play cricket and I am sure we will bounce back.”

Notre Dame will be fine without Brian Kelly, they said. Marcus Freeman will keep the Fighting Irish on top, they said.
While it may be a bit premature to judge Notre Dame and Freeman post-Kelly, it’s a fact to say it has not been a good start. Just one week after hanging with No. 3 Ohio State in a 21-10 loss, No. 8 Notre Dame was back it Saturday for their home opener against Marshall. The Fighting Irish (0-2) were not lucky, nor good. Marshall (2-0), a member of the Sun Belt conference, defeated the independent powerhouse, 26-21, to pull off one of the biggest college football upsets in recent years.
Fans watching across the country (excluding those in South Bend) were delighted to see the Thundering Herd stun the Fighting Irish.
El Presidente (Dave Portnoy) of Barstool Sports was especially happy to see the loss for Notre Dame.
One Twitter user summed up everything in a few words of how college football fans feel about Notre Dame’s defeat. As they said, the entire country is laughing at Notre Dame in unison.
Perhaps the only team’s fanbase that is conflicted by Marshall’s victory is Ohio State’s. The Buckeyes had a signature win under their belt as they began their march to the College Football Playoff. Now? Not so much.
Marshall Powers Past Notre Dame For a Stunner in South Bend
Quarterback play can go a long way in determining the outcome of a football game. See Bryce Young of Alabama as an example, who was great when he needed to and lifted his team to a victory over Texas on Saturday. Notre Dame did not have that luxury against Marshall.
Tyler Buchner, making his second-career start, was the second best quarterback on the field of Notre Dame Stadium. He finished the game 18-of-32 passing with 201 yards and two interceptions. His most costly error occurred with 4:35 remaining in the fourth, with Notre Dame trailing, 19-15. What was meant to be a hero moment for the sophomore, quickly turned to disaster.
Marshall cornerback Steven Gilmore intercepted Buchner’s third-down pass. Steven, the brother of the Indianapolis Colts’ Stephon Gilmore, took it the other way for six.
On the next drive, Buchner was yanked for Drew Pyne. Save his touchdown pass with the result no longer in doubt, Pyne wasn’t much better. He threw an interception on his second pass of the game, only making matters worse for Notre Dame.
Running back Khalan Laborn led the way for the Thundering Herd throughout the contest. The former Florida State Seminole rushed for 163 yards on 31 carries and a score. Laborn was out of college football last season and worked as an Uber driver. In his second game back, he was the catalyst in helping Marshall take down Notre Dame and broke some ankles while doing it.
The victory for Marshall is its first over a top-10 team since knocking off Kansas State, 27-20, in 2003. They were paid a handsome $1.25 million to travel to South Bend and kill off Notre Dame’s College Football Playoff hopes.

Skellerup Holdings (NZSE:SKL) Ticks All The Boxes When It Comes To Earnings Growth
Investors are often guided by the idea of discovering 'the next big thing', even if that means buying 'story stocks' without any revenue, let alone profit. But the reality is that when a company loses money each year, for long enough, its investors will usually take their share of those losses. Loss making companies can act like a sponge for capital - so investors should be cautious that they're not throwing good money after bad.
In contrast to all that, many investors prefer to focus on companies like Skellerup Holdings (NZSE:SKL), which has not only revenues, but also profits. Now this is not to say that the company presents the best investment opportunity around, but profitability is a key component to success in business.
See our latest analysis for Skellerup Holdings
How Fast Is Skellerup Holdings Growing?
Generally, companies experiencing growth in earnings per share (EPS) should see similar trends in share price. That makes EPS growth an attractive quality for any company. It certainly is nice to see that Skellerup Holdings has managed to grow EPS by 18% per year over three years. As a general rule, we'd say that if a company can keep up that sort of growth, shareholders will be beaming.
Careful consideration of revenue growth and earnings before interest and taxation (EBIT) margins can help inform a view on the sustainability of the recent profit growth. While we note Skellerup Holdings achieved similar EBIT margins to last year, revenue grew by a solid 13% to NZ$317m. That's encouraging news for the company!
The chart below shows how the company's bottom and top lines have progressed over time. For finer detail, click on the image.
Fortunately, we've got access to analyst forecasts of Skellerup Holdings' future profits. You can do your own forecasts without looking, or you can take a peek at what the professionals are predicting.
Are Skellerup Holdings Insiders Aligned With All Shareholders?
It should give investors a sense of security owning shares in a company if insiders also own shares, creating a close alignment their interests. Shareholders will be pleased by the fact that insiders own Skellerup Holdings shares worth a considerable sum. Indeed, they hold NZ$33m worth of its stock. That's a lot of money, and no small incentive to work hard. While their ownership only accounts for 3.0%, this is still a considerable amount at stake to encourage the business to maintain a strategy that will deliver value to shareholders.
Is Skellerup Holdings Worth Keeping An Eye On?
You can't deny that Skellerup Holdings has grown its earnings per share at a very impressive rate. That's attractive. With EPS growth rates like that, it's hardly surprising to see company higher-ups place confidence in the company through continuing to hold a significant investment. On the balance of its merits, solid EPS growth and company insiders who are aligned with the shareholders would indicate a business that is worthy of further research. Even so, be aware that Skellerup Holdings is showing 2 warning signs in our investment analysis , you should know about...
There's always the possibility of doing well buying stocks that are not growing earnings and do not have insiders buying shares. But for those who consider these important metrics, we encourage you to check out companies that do have those features. You can access a free list of them here.

EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WEHT) – The Evansville Police Department say there was an attempted kidnapping on Thursday at 8:51 p.m. in the 1500 block of W. Louisiana.
The caller was stopped by a woman who said a heavyset, white, bald man tried to kidnap her. According to the caller the man was wearing glasses, a grey shirt and jeans and followed her through the alley behind the Dollar General on Fulton.
EPD says the incident is being investigated. Reports say the man has a red Dodge Dart car. According to a post by Dubois County Sheriff’s Office, the man likely has ties to Dubois County despite living in Evansville.
The sheriff’s office advises all people to exercise caution especially when out alone and asks that all suspicious activity is reported.

CINCINNATI (AP) — Without a top 10 since the Asia swing in early March, Jeongeun Lee6 posted her best score in nearly a year on Friday with a 9-under 63 that gave her a one-shot lead in the Kroger Queen City Championship.
Lee6 has gone three years since her lone win on the LPGA Tour at the 2019 U.S. Women’s Open, and the 26-year-old South Korean hasn’t contended since Singapore at the HSBC Women’s World Championship.
She was at 13-under 131, one ahead of Janet Lin of China, who had a 68. Ally Ewing had six straight birdies on the front nine and shot 64, leaving her two behind.
Lee6 was never under much stress and was at her best around the turn at Kenwood Country Club, making seven birdies in a 10-hole stretch.
“It was a good bogey-free round, and it’s been a while I played bogey-free, so I’m really satisfied with my game today,” Lee6 said. “Two more rounds, so I’m just going to focus on my swing. I’m focusing on just downswing, so I did really well today.”
A teenager still in high school will be around for the weekend at the first LPGA Tour event in Cincinnati since 1989. Anna Davis, the 16-year-old from the San Diego area who won the Augusta National Women’s Amateur, had a 66 and was at 4-under 140.
Davis has made the cut in three of her five LPGA starts this year, one of them a major at the Evian Championship. She also made the cut two weeks ago in Canada. She was tied for 26th going into the weekend in Cincinnati.
“I’m very excited,” Davis said. “I’m not very in contention, but kind of finally up there on the leaderboard a little bit, so it’ll be nice to see if I can keep climbing the leaderboard on the weekend.”
Gianna Clemente, the 14-year-old who splits time between Ohio and Florida, wasn’t so fortunate. This is her third straight LPGA start — getting through Monday qualifying each time — and she opened with a bogey-free 70 to have a good chance at the weekend.
But she only made one birdie, twice took bogey on par 5s and wound up with a 77 to miss the cut by four shots.
The cut was at 1-under 143 on a course that hasn’t hosted an LPGA-sanctioned tournament since the 1963 U.S. Women’s Open. Another major, the LPGA Championship, was in the area for 10 years until 1989.
The weekend will not include U.S. Women’s Open champion Minjee Lee, who leads the Race to CME Globe, or American star Lexi Thompson. Lee never recovered from a 76 in the opening round. She had a 69 on Friday.
Thompson, who played in the final group a week ago at the Dana Open, went 36 holes without a birdie. She did hole a wedge for eagle on the seventh hole, though that was her lone score under par. Thompson had 16 pars and a bogey for a 71.
Paula Creamer made the cut in her second event back since having her first child. She had a 70 and was at 2-under 142.
Ten players were within five shots of Lee6.
Maria Fassi, the big-hitting Mexican who has struggled to keep it in the short grass, followed a 68 with a 66 and was three behind, along with Sarah Kemp of Australia (68).
Megan Khang, a runner-up last week, had a 66 and was four behind.
Fassi, Kemp and Khang have yet to win on the LPGA Tour, though this year already has produced eight first-time winners.
Fassi finished with five birdies on her last six holes.
“Last week it was the opposite for me. I didn’t quite finish the way I wanted on the Friday and I think it carried to the weekend,” Fassi said. “So I’m just hoping that I flip the script this week and just continue to build on how good I’ve been playing these first 36 holes. I’m excited to see what we can do this next couple of days.”

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Steven Gilmore returned an interception 37 yards for a touchdown late in the fourth quarter and Khalan Labron ran for 163 yards as Marshall shocked No. 8 Notre Dame 26-21 Saturday, making Marcus Freeman the first Fighting Irish coach to lose his first three games.
Gilmore, the brother of Stephon Gilmore of the Indianapolis Colts, picked off a pass by Tyler Buchner with 4:35 left, raced to the end zone and then jumped into the stands where Marshall fans were already celebrating the victory.
Marshall (2-0), the first Sun Belt Conference team to play at Notre Dame Stadium, beat a team ranked in the top 10 for just the second time in school history. The Thundering Herd beat No. 6 Kansas State 27-20 in 2003.
Freeman, the 36-yeard-old first-time head coach who was promoted after Brian Kelly left for LSU, had lost a bowl game to Oklahoma State and at Ohio State last week. This one will go down much differently to hopeful Notre Dame fans.
The Irish had a streak of 42 straight wins against unranked opponents snapped.
The Herd took a 19-15 lead with 5:16 remaining when Henry Colombi completed a 3-yard touchdown pass to Devin Miller. The score was set up by a 42-yard run by Laborn, who broke a tackle at the line of scrimmage and juked Irish safety Brandon Joseph before breaking free.
Any hope for a comeback by the Irish (0-2) ended when Owen Porter intercepted a pass by backup Irish quarterback Drew Pyne with three minutes remaining. Pyne threw a TD pass with 14 second left to cut the lead to five points.
Colombi was 16-of-21 passing for 145 yards and the Thundering Herd rushed for 221 yards on 49 carries.
The Irish, who struggled offensively a week earlier in a 21-10 loss to Ohio State with a play-it-safe, ball-control game plan, opened the playbook against the Herd but still struggled to get much going.
Buchner was 18-of-32 passing for 201 yards with two interceptions. Buchner also led the Irish in rushing with 44 yards on 13 carries, Michael Mayer had eight catches for 103 yards.
The Irish grabbed a 15-12 lead early in the fourth quarter on a 1-yard run up by Buchner. He then kept it and ran wide right for the 2-point conversion. But the Irish couldn’t mount much of an offense after that.
Two plays with a little over eight minutes left in the third quarter epitomized Notre Dame’s struggles. On third-and-2 from the Notre Dame 47, the Irish couldn’t get the first down on two carries by Audric Estime, coming up 6 inches short as the line couldn’t get much push.
That led to a drive by the Thundering Herd, highlighted by a backward pass by Colombi to Talik Keaton along the left sideline for a 30-yard gain but the drive stalled after Cam Fancher took over at quarterback for Colombi. Marshall drove to the 4-yard line before settling for a 20-yard field goal to go ahead 12-7.
THE TAKEAWAY
Marshall: Second-year coach Charles Huff, a former Alabama and Penn State assistant, assembled a roster heavy on Power Five transfers such as Labron from Florida State for the school's first season in the Sun Belt. It paid off with one of the biggest victories in school history.
Notre Dame: The Irish offense showed it still has a lot of work to do, and the honeymoon period for Freeman is probably over.
POLL IMPLICATIONS
The respect the Irish gained by playing Ohio State won't be enough to overcome this poor showing.
NEXT UP
Marshall: The Thundering Herd play at Bowling Green on Saturday, their first meeting since 2010.
Notre Dame: The Irish will wear green jerseys when they host Cal on Saturday. It will be the first time the Irish have worn green since 2018. The Irish were 4-0 wearing green during the Brian Kelly era — and will be looking to snap a three-game losing streak in them this time.

NEW DELHI: As many as 9,180 inmates were reported to be suffering from mental illness, accounting for 1.7% of the total 5.54 lakh inmates lodged in various jails in the country as on December 31 last year, according to the latest ‘Prison Statistics India’ report of the National Crime Records Bureau. These numbers bring to focus the fact that behind the jail walls, mental health remains a concern.
Last year, 7,524 inmates were reported to be suffering from mental illness. Percentage wise, those suffering from mental illness accounted for 1.5% of the 4.88 lakh inmates lodged in various prisons as on December 2020.

Out of 1,879 natural deaths, 1,796 inmates died due to illness and 83 due to ageing. Of those who died due to illness, 27.4% (493) inmates have died due to heart-diseases and 16.4% (294) inmates have died due to lung diseases.
As far as the number of unnatural deaths in prisons is concerned, they have decreased by 2.1% from 189 in 2020 to 185 in 2021. The report states that among the 185 unnatural deaths of inmates, suicide was the predominant cause (150), followed by murder by inmates (11) and accidental deaths (6), among other reasons. Of the 189 inmates who died of unnatural causes in 2020, suicides was the cause in as many as 156 cases.
In 2021, of 150 suicides, the predominant mode was hanging (139), followed by poisoning (3), self-inflicted injury (2), drug overdose (1) and others. Accidental deaths mostly occurred due to a fall (2), electrocution, road/train accident, drugs or alcohol intake.
State-wise data shows that UP has reported the highest number of deaths due to natural causes (439) followed by Bihar (173) and
Madhya Pradesh (151) during 2021. In the case of unnatural deaths, UP reported the highest number of unnatural deaths (42), followed by
Haryana and West Bengal (16 each) and Delhi (12).

The Kings and defenseman Mikey Anderson have agreed to a one-year contract extension worth $1 million, the team announced Saturday.
Anderson, 23, has turned into a stellar value and an integral piece of the Kings’ defense corps. A fourth-round draft pick in 2017, Anderson impressed during a brief stint in 2020. The following season, he earned a spot on the top defensive pairing alongside Drew Doughty.
Combining sound positioning, fluid skating and decisive puck movement, Anderson has developed into one of the stronger defensive defensemen in the NHL in short order. He’s also become something of a leader in the dressing room, having carried over experience as captain of the U.S. junior national team to the NHL, where he found his voice quickly.
“Out of the young guys, he’s definitely the most mature and the guy that would be a leader down the road for us,” said Doughty, the Kings’ seniormost defenseman and alternate captain. “He’s definitely got to be in the secondary core of the leadership.”
General Manager Rob Blake echoed Doughty’s sentiment that Anderson had become an asset beyond his contributions between the whistles. The foremost authority among the Kings remained captain Anze Kopitar, goalie Jonathan Quick and Doughty, all of whom were two-time Stanley Cup winners in 2012 and 2014.
But Anderson and last season’s biggest free-agent splash, center Phillip Danault, have augmented the guidance of those seasoned veterans. That has been timely as the roster has gotten younger, particularly after the trade of Jeff Carter two seasons ago and the recent retirement of Dustin Brown, who were also both key members of the Cup-winning rosters.
Anderson, a University of Minnesota-Duluth alumnus, played in a career high 57 games last season along with seven playoff contests, the first postseason action of his career. He recorded eight points during the campaign and a plus-six rating, despite missing significant action, most of it due to an upper-body injury.
As the pieces fell into place this summer for the Kings, Blake stated repeatedly that Anderson’s contract was a priority. Still, about two months passed between the acquisition of winger Kevin Fiala and the contract extension for forward Adrian Kempe and the short-term signing of Anderson, in large part due to Anderson’s contract status as a non-arbitration-eligible restricted free agent.
While a longer-term pact awaits – Anderson is set to become a restricted free agent again next summer – the Kings have at least one more item remaining on their 2022 offseason checklist.
Defenseman Sean Durzi, who shined at times last year in the absence of a plethora of defenseman, remained unsigned as of Saturday.
His 27 points in 64 games, as well as his confidence while handling the puck and walking the blue line, were significant boosts to a team sorely lacking offensive production from the back end. Injuries sidelined Sean Walker for practically the entire campaign and the typically durable Doughty missed more than half the season between an early knee injury and season-ending wrist surgery.
When Blake last addressed the media, he spoke of the high priority he placed on extending Anderson and Durzi. With training camp fast approaching, a deal for Durzi appears imminent. That could signify the last of the Kings’ moves ahead of the 2022-23 season, which opens for the Kings on Oct. 11 against the Vegas Golden Knights.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Padraig Harrington bogeyed the final hole Saturday for a 5-under 66, leaving him just a stroke ahead of Steve Stricker and Bernhard Langer with a round lead in the Ascension Charity Classic.
Harrington, the three-time major winner and most recent European Ryder Cup captain, was at 11-under 131 at Norwood Hills. The Irishman has two victories and four runner-up finishes in his first full PGA Tour Champions season.
“It’s nice to be the leader,” Harrington said. “Can’t ask for more than that. In some ways I do feel like I was a little bit scrappy today. It was a bit more drama in it. Would have liked it to be simpler.”
He rebounded from a bogey on the par-4 14th with three straight birdies, then lost another stroke on the par-4 18th.
“Got to hit your shots and accept the consequences,” Harrington said. “Sometimes when you’re out in front you’re minding yourself and protecting yourself a little bit too much.”
Stricker, coming off a win two weeks ago in Michigan, shot a 65. The 65-year-old Langer had a 67. Langer won the Chubb Classic early in the year for his 43rd senior victory, two shy of the record held by Hale Irwin.
Charles Schwab Cup leader Steven Alker (68) was 8 under with Y.E. Yang (66).
Former British Open champion Justin Leonard, who retired early to work television, was tied for 24th at 4 under in his debut on the 50-and-over tour with his second 69.

Man (21) jailed for two months after selling items stolen from car on social media
A 21-year-old man who used social media to sell items which had been stolen from a car has been sentenced to two months imprisonment after he said he didn’t want another opportunity to engage with the Probation Service.
Alex Payne Craven, with an address at the time at Windsor Lodge, North Road, Drogheda, pleaded guilty to a charge of possessing stolen property at Windsor Lodge on a date unknown between 21 January and 12 February 2021.
Evidence was presented that at 9.13am on 21 January 2021 it was reported to gardaí that a Kia Sportage had been broken into at Shamrock Villas, Ballymakenny Road during the early hours. Property worth €605 was taken.
The owner subsequently saw the stolen goods for sale.
It was discovered Mr Payne Craven used Facebook Marketplace to sell the items, with the profile ‘Alex Hutch’. A search warrant was obtained, and he was arrested and questioned.
He admitted selling all the property. The court heard that the person who bought the property, not knowing it was stolen, was contacted by gardaí and it was recovered.

There were no previous convictions.
Solicitor Eleanor Kelly said during a previous hearing that her client was originally from Coolock. He grew up in care and then fell in with a bad crowd on turning 18. He dropped out of a Culinary Arts course in DIT.
Payne Craven moved to Drogheda two years ago and homeless services placed him in B&B accommodation. He had been moving between Drogheda, Dublin and Cavan and had experienced periods of homelessness.
He had tried to rekindle a relationship with his parents.
At Drogheda Court on 5 September the defendant instructed that he didn’t want to engage with the Probation Service and felt that time in custody ‘might help him get his mind straight’.
There was an unfavourable probation report and Payne Craven told Judge McKiernan that he didn’t want another chance.
‘I don’t think I will be able to engage (with the probation service). I think custody is the thing for me at the moment.’
The judge said she didn’t agree.
The accused continued that he had been going to The Red Door Project for a month.
‘I went there six times, but it didn’t help me. I’m taking tablets.
‘I’m living in a friend’s house. I’m all over the place, to be honest.’
Judge McKiernan said she didn’t think custody was the answer and when the defendant reiterated that he didn’t want to engage with the Probation Service he was remanded in custody to Dundalk Court on 7 September for sentence via video link.
On the adjourned date the judge recalled she had put this case back on a number of occasions because of Alex Payne Craven’s age and the fact he had no previous convictions.
It was unfortunate he hadn’t dealt with services. He got an opportunity to reconsider his position.
Judge McKiernan said there was no other option but a custodial sentence.
It was a very serious matter to break into a car and then advertise the items for sale.
Other charges stemming from separate incidents, including public order and theft of perfume, were taken into consideration.

Special meetings this week by North Platte’s and Lincoln County’s planning commissions will take up plans by two rural landowners to supply fill dirt for Sustainable Beef LLC’s plant site.
The city Planning Commission will hold a special meeting at 5:30 p.m. Monday, while its county counterpart will meet at the same time Tuesday. Both meetings will be in City Hall’s council chamber, 211 W. Third St.
Each will take up applications for conditional use permits to strip-mine dirt over a year’s time for use in filling in the former sewer lagoon south of North Platte’s wastewater treatment plant.
Sustainable Beef completed its $142,500 purchase of the lagoon Aug. 26, five days before organizers announced they had completed their construction financing with a partnership deal with Walmart.
The planning panels’ respective governing boards will have the final word on granting those permits.
People are also reading…
County commissioners will take theirs up at their regular meeting Sept. 19, with the City Council following suit at its regular meeting the next evening.
Gary and Ruth Stearns want permission to remove dirt from their property on South Old Highway 83, about three miles southeast of the beef plant site at Newberry Access and Golden Road.
Robert Long is likewise seeking to mine dirt from his land three miles northeast of the site and north and east of the intersection of Hall School and Airport roads.
The Stearnses must obtain conditional use permits from both the city and county. North Platte’s 2-mile zoning jurisdiction boundary runs through their land, said Judy Clark, planning administrator for both governments.
A city permit for the couple will be the only item on Monday’s special city Planning Commission agenda. The Stearns proposal will go before the county panel Tuesday, as will Long’s.
In an unrelated matter, the county Planning Commission Tuesday will consider whether to accept the dedication of four internal roads at Fairway Estates south of Lake Maloney. The county panel also will elect officers.
Sustainable Beef leaders have said they plan to fill in the old 8- to 10-foot sewer lagoon and build it up until the site’s final elevation is 5 feet higher than the lagoon’s berm.
City and county documents say the Stearnses and Long expect between 20 and 25 semitrailer trucks to haul dirt each weekday from their properties to the beef plant site. Trucks are expected to operate from 7 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. on those days.
County Roads Superintendent Jason Schultz warned of potential long-term damage to the asphalt surface of North Airport Road in an Aug. 25 letter to the county Planning Commission regarding Long’s proposed permit.
“The substantial increase in heavy truck traffic will likely increase the maintenance of this portion of road during the duration of the project,” Schultz wrote.
He estimated that 500 to 750 loads of material would be hauled each day. “We should expect the overall life expectancy of this road to decrease before requiring resurfacing or rehabilitation.”
Old Highway 83 from the Stearns’ property to State Farm Road has both gravel and asphalt surfaces. A letter from Schultz regarding the couple’s permit will be available at the county Planning Commission meeting Tuesday, Clark wrote in a memorandum.
Dirt hauling down Airport Road bound for Newberry Access also would face — at least at the start — the current reconstruction of the U.S. Highway 30 North Platte River bridge west of Lee Bird Field.
Gary Thayer, District 6 engineer for the Nebraska Department of Transportation, said U.S. 30 traffic between the airport and North Platte for the next few days is being diverted to Interstate 80 while a new concrete bridge deck poured Friday cures.
He said the highway will reopen after that but be limited to one lane until at least Nov. 1, when the contractor is supposed to restore two-lane traffic. Financial penalties will be imposed after that if it isn’t.
Semitrailer trucks have been able to navigate the narrowed river bridge during this year’s work, Thayer said. Vehicle widths have been limited to 10 feet, but “a (semi) truck is 8 feet wide.”
Motorists also can take Hall School Road, U.S. 83 and U.S. 30 on East 12th Street between North Platte and the airport, Thayer said.

This Dow Jones Stock Is a More Recession-Proof Than You Think
There are no two ways about it: Caterpillar (NYSE: CAT) is a cyclical company. Its revenue and earnings tend to rise and fall in sync with the general trends in the global economy.
So everyone shouldn't be surprised then that Caterpillar faces some near-term risks from a slowdown in the global economy, not least from a cooling construction market in China. That said, investors don't just buy stocks as short-term bets on the economy. Also, there's reason to believe Caterpillar will emerge stronger from a recession, should it happen. Let me explain.
Management's strategy gets tweaked
The cyclicality in Caterpillar's earnings is implicitly recognized in management's targets. For example, back in its 2019 Investor Day presentation, management told investors to expect its annual machinery, energy, and transportation (ME&T) free cash flow to be in the range of $4 billion to $8 billion during the current cycle, in contrast to the $3 billion to $6 billion it achieved during the 2010-2016 cycle. Moreover, management is aiming for its adjusted operating margin to be in the 10% to 21% range, with a 300 basis point to 600 basis point improvement on the margins achieved in the 2010-2016 period.
The width of those ranges is a recognition of the cyclicality of its end markets and an affirmation that management sees Caterpillar's underlying businesses as strengthening through the next up and down cycle.
So far, Caterpillar has largely hit its 2019 targets, with adjusted operating margins of 15.8%, 11.8%, and 13.7% in 2019-2021. Over the same period, its annual ME&T free cash flow results were $5.3 billion, $3.1 billion, and $6 billion, so Caterpillar missed its target in 2020, but during the 2022 investor day presentation, CEO Jim Umpleby explained that "was largely due to our strategic decision to hold more inventory than usual to prepare for a potential increase in demand in 2021."
Services growth
Caterpillar has been improving profit margins and free cash flow through this cycle by growing its services revenue. Management aims to double its services sales from $14 billion in 2016 (on total sales of $38.5 billion) to $28 billion in 2026. Caterpillar is on its way with $19 billion in services sales in 2021 (on total sales of $51 billion). It plans to hit its target by building out its digital strategy. Its predictive analytics help customers better plan when to service equipment, which reduces their costs. Its fleet management tools allow customers to track and monitor equipment. At the same time, its digital platforms help customers to order parts -- and Caterpillar's online parts sales were up more than 20% in 2021 alone. It's all intended to maximize the company's revenue opportunities after it has sold equipment to a customer.
This growth in its services business will put Caterpillar in a stronger position for the period when the global economy starts shifting out of a recession.
The energy transition
Management also believes Caterpillar will be a beneficiary of a secular shift in the economy as nations around the world transition to greener energy sources. Not only will that shift demand significant infrastructure to be built -- good news for Caterpillar's construction machinery business -- but it will also create growth opportunities as demand increases for mined commodities. During the 2022 investor day presentation, Umpleby said, "To expand upon one example, the adoption of electric vehicles is accelerating demand for key commodities. EVs use approximately six times the minerals of a conventional car, including copper, lithium, nickel, and graphite." That's excellent news for Caterpillar's resources industries business.
A long-term commodity upcycle?
The third argument in favor of this stock is that the more disciplined approach to spending taken by oil and gas and mining companies in the current environment supports relatively higher prices and, ultimately, a long expansion of their spending. This differs from the prior pattern of violent booms and busts in these industries, where excessive production has led to gluts of oil and other commodities when demand declines.
That's good news for Caterpillar because it allows management to better plan its production from year to year.
A stock to buy?
These arguments are attractive, and Caterpillar will surely emerge as a stronger company from a recession. However, investors will have to deal with significant volatility if a recession occurs, and at its current valuation, the company looks fairly valued . As such, this stock is one for the monitor list right now rather than an outright buy.

It felt like Assassin’s Creed Valhalla might never end. Long after the seas had swallowed the continents and the stars had gone out, Eivor would still be finding new settlements to pillage and new cosmetics to play around with. But today Ubisoft announced the almost unthinkable: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla has an end and it will be coming in the next free DLC.
Called The Last Chapter, the update expected later this year will see Eivor tie up all of her lose ends and meet some new historical figures along the way. Ubisoft didn’t go into much more detail, but it sounds like it will be a victory lap of sorts, and probably a little more lowkey than some of Viking’s previous DLC adventures.
Eivor's journey will find its conclusion with the free quest arc "The Last Chapter", available in the coming months in Assassin's Creed Valhalla.#AssassinsCreed pic.twitter.com/ukU0ZPoGU9

Read More: Tips For Playing Assassin’s Creed Valhalla
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla came out way back in the fall of 2020 alongside the launch of the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. The third game in the series’ open world RPG era, it took players to England in the ninth century through the eyes of Eivor, a Viking leading her people in a strange new land after fleeing trauma and tragedy back home. It’s the best Assassin’s Creed game in several years, borrowing bits of The Witcher 3 and marrying them with stealthy stabbing in the shadows. The open world itself is richly layered and one of my favourites.
But Ubisoft wasn’t content to just leave things there. Instead, as has been the case with all of its recent games, Valhalla got the full live service post-launch treatment. This encompassed mini-DLC packs full of new items and cross-over cosmetics, paid DLC story expansions that took players to Ireland and France, and even an entirely new mode inspired by roguelikes. Dawn of Ragnarok, one of the more ambitious DLCs, even doubled down on the game’s high fantasy side.
But now the years of new seasonal content are winding down. And I, for one, am relieved. Games that keep expanding like Valhalla has always make me feel overwhelmed. Usually, I just end up waiting until all of the post-launch content has dripped out before going back. It looks like this winter I’ll finally get my chance to return to the super deluxe complete version of Valhalla and finish polishing off every last icon on its gigantic map.

Los Angeles County is seeing little change to its coronavirus hospitalizations, with the number of COVID-positive patients in the county increasing by six people to 771, according to the latest state figures reported on Saturday, Sept. 10.
Of those patients, 106 were being treated in intensive care, unchanged from Friday’s total.
County officials have said about 43% of patients with COVID were actually hospitalized due to virus-related illness, while the rest were admitted for other reasons, with some only learning they were infected when they were tested upon admission.
Those numbers come one day after the county reported 15 more COVID-related deaths, along with 2,228 new cases.
The latest fatalities lifted the county’s virus-related death toll from throughout the pandemic to 33,348, while the overall number of infections rose to 3,425,863.
Health officials have noted that official case numbers are likely low due to the number of people who rely on at-home tests but do not report the results to the county.
The average daily rate of people testing positive for the virus was 6.3% as of Friday, down from 7.6% on Thursday.
The county this week began offering the recently approved COVID vaccine booster shot that targets the Omicron variants of the virus. Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer compared the amended vaccination to the annual flu shot, which is adjusted annually based on circulating influenza strains.
“The same concept was used in updating the COVID booster to create this bivalent booster,” Ferrer said Thursday. “Viral data from around the world was used to inform updates of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. At this point the pandemic, there is extensive safety and effectiveness data on the mRNA vaccines … and their effectiveness against COVID-19.”
The newly approved booster shots became available at vaccination sites around L.A. County on Wednesday, directly targeting the BA.4 and BA.5 subvariants of the Omicron variant. BA.5 is believed to be responsible for the vast majority of infections occurring in the county and nationally.
The newly approved Pfizer/BioNTech booster is for those age 12 and over, while the Moderna bivalent booster is for those age 18 and older. Details on where the vaccines are available can be found at vaccinatelacounty.com, or in Spanish, vacunatelosangeles.com.

A former Strictly Come Dancing star has claimed that some of the professional dancers have been forced to pretend they are happy with their celebrity partner.
DJ Scott Mills has revealed that things are not always what they seem when the Strictly professional dancers find out who they are partnered with on the show.
The hit BBC One dancing competition is set to return to our screens on Saturday, September 17, where the launch show will reveal who is paired up for the live shows that commence the following week.
The full line-up of 15 celebrities was finally unveiled on August 13 with the likes of Kym Marsh, Ellie Simmonds, Tony Adams, Matt Goss and Helen Skelton taking to the ballroom floor.
And Scott, who was part of the 2014 series alongside Joanne Clifton, opened up about the realities of the relationships between the dancers and their celebrity partners.
Speaking on Radio 5 Live, he said: "On my series there were some dancers who weren’t happy with their celebrities. But it was never seen on screen."
Scott's former co-host Chris Stark was also convinced that many of the reactions were not what they seemed.
He said: "One of the things that gets me is when the contestant meets the dancer for the first time and they both have to pretend that they would have chosen each other.
"The chances that every contestant has been linked with exactly the right dancer and that dancer has been linked with exactly the right contestant is mind-boggling. You have got more chance of winning the lottery.
"It’s the lying, going, 'You are exactly who I wanted'."
Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman will return as the flagship Saturday night show's hosts while Anton du Beke will rejoin the judges' panel permanently alongside head judge Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood and Motsi Mabuse.
In August, Scott presented his final show on Radio 1 after 24 years of service after he announced he was switching over to Radio 2 to replace Steve Wright.
Chris, who co-hosted alongside Scott for the last 10 years at Radio 1, left the BBC last month to join as Creative Executive Producer and presenter on Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp.
He also takes up a new role in Global’s growing podcast division, with the remit of developing sport content for Global Player.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Horseback riding with Ronald Reagan. Yachting with Bill Clinton. Sipping tea with Joe Biden.
Queen Elizabeth II, who died Thursday at age 96, had met every American president since Dwight Eisenhower, with the exception of Lyndon Johnson, who did not visit Britain during his presidency. Biden was the 13th and final U.S. president to meet the woman whose reign spanned seven decades.
Keep scrolling for a gallery of photos of U.S. presidents with Queen Elizabeth II
Every living former U.S. president — Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Donald Trump — joined Biden in mourning her passing and sending condolences to her family.
Biden and first lady Jill Biden said the queen's “legacy will loom large in the pages of British history, and in the story of our world.”
Obama and his wife, Michelle, recalled the queen welcoming them, America's first Black president and first lady, to the world stage “with open arms and extraordinary generosity.”
Biden first met the queen in 1982 as a U.S. senator traveling in the U.K. with a delegation from Congress. He last saw her in 2021, several months after he became president, while attending a world leaders' summit in southwestern England.
She mingled with Group of Seven leaders at a reception that she and other royals hosted at an indoor rainforest. After the summit, the Bidens traveled to Windsor Castle, near London, at the queen's invitation for a private audience.
The queen was a 25-year-old princess when she came to Washington in 1951 and stayed with President Harry Truman and his family. She met Herbert Hoover in 1957, more than 20 years after he left office. Full story:
Following the death of the Queen, Harry and Meghan's children have become His Royal Highness Prince Archie of Sussex and Her Royal Highness Princess Lilibet of Sussex.
Moscow says the move is payback for U.S. sanctions against Russians because of the conflict in Ukraine. Among the best known names on the list: Actors Sean Penn and Ben Stiller.
Will King Charles III be loved by his subjects, like his mother was? The question has overshadowed his entire life, and now, Charles at 73 will be the oldest person to take the British throne.
King Charles III has been officially announced as Britain's monarch in a ceremony steeped in ancient tradition and political symbolism — and, for the first time, broadcast live.
Ukrainian officials on Saturday claimed major gains in a counteroffensive against Russian forces in the country's northeast, saying Ukrainian troops had cut off vital supplies to front-line hotspot.
Queen Elizabeth II was the only monarch most Britons have ever known. Now her son Charles faces an enormous challenge: Building the same affection that characterized the relationship between his mother and the British public.

'No regrets' as Jabeur targets world top spot
Issued on: Modified:
New York (AFP) – Ons Jabeur insisted she had "no regrets" after losing to Iga Swiatek in the US Open final as she targeted the Pole's world number one ranking next year.
Jabeur's 6-2, 7-6 (7/5) loss on Saturday was her second successive defeat in a Grand Slam final after also coming off second best at Wimbledon in July.
"I have nothing to regret because I did everything possible," said Jabeur, who will return to number two in the world on Monday.
Swiatek remains comfortably in the rankings' top slot with twice as many points.
The 28-year-old Jabeur, however, is already drawing up a battle plan for 2023.
At the Australian Open, she will have no points to defend having missed the 2022 tournament before she suffered a shock first round exit at the French Open.
Despite being the Wimbledon runner-up, ranking points were stripped from the event by the WTA after the All England Club banned Russian and Belarusian players.
"Points-wise, I don't have defending points in Australia, in French Open, in Wimbledon, which is good. It's a good thing. I'm definitely going for the No. 1 spot," said Jabeur.
"I still have the Masters (WTA Finals in Fort Worth). I will maybe show myself there and build more confidence to really get ready for the next season because I feel like I have a lot to show."
Jabeur, a late bloomer on the tour having still been outside the top 30 at the end of 2020, believes history shows that time remains on her side when it comes to her Grand Slam future.
It took her until she was 26 to capture a maiden WTA title in 2021 at Birmingham, adding Madrid and Berlin trophies this year.
"I struggled to win my first WTA title. It took me time," she added.
"So I believe this will take me time. The most important thing is accepting it, learning from the finals that I lost.
"But I'm not someone that's going to give up. I am sure I'm going to be in the final again and I will try my best to win it."
In the meantime, Jabeur acknowledged that 21-year-old Swiatek, who now has three Grand Slam titles after also winning the French Open in 2020 and this year, is the sport's most formidable force.
Swiatek has 10 career titles. She has won her last 10 finals without dropping a set.
"Physically she's everywhere. It will always be great to compete against Iga," said Jabeur.
"I was joking when I said I don't like her. I'll forgive her when she gives me a Rolex or something!"

'I'm really glad that it's not in cash': Down-to-earth Iga Swiatek's hilarious response after being handed her $2.6M winnings in an envelope after lifting the US Open trophy in New York
- Iga Swiatek beat Ons Jabeur in straight sets to win the US Open women's singles
- In the aftermath, the world No. 1 was handed an envelope with her $2.6m prize
- She joked she was 'really glad it's not in cash' after receiving the massive check
- Jabeur received $1.3m for losing, and the same prize is on offer for the men
Iga Swiatek joked that she was 'really glad' her $2.6million US Open winnings were not in cash after she was surprised to be handed an envelope with her prize in after lifting the trophy on Saturday night.
The Polish world No. 1 was far too good for her opponent Ons Jabeur in New York, winning in straight sets, and there was a party atmosphere inside Arthur Ashe as fans celebrated her brilliant victory.
After lifting the trophy, Swiatek appeared surprised to be handed an envelope containing a check for $2.6m, joking: 'Thank you. I'm really glad that is not in cash.'
Iga Swiatek receives an envelope with her check for $2.6m after winning the US Open
Swiatek was just too good for Ons Jabeur, beating her in straight sets on Arthur Ashe
Both the men and women at the US Open receive the same prize money in the singles, with either Carlos Alcaraz or Casper Ruud set to receive the same envelope on Sunday after the conclusion of their match.
Saturday's loser in the final, Jabeur, will still take home a cool $1.3m for making it to the Arthur Ashe showpiece.
Meanwhile, Poland's Swiatek appeared in shock after securing her third Grand Slam title, and first in New York after two previous successes in France.
'I'm just not expecting a lot, especially before this tournament, it was such a challenging time. Coming back after winning a grand slam is always tricky,' she said.
'For sure this tournament was really challenging. It's New York, it's so loud, so crazy. I'm so proud that I could handle it mentally.'
Turning to Jabeur, the Pole said: 'I know this is already a pretty nice rivalry. I'm pretty sure we're going to have many more and that you're going to win some of them so don't worry.'
Jabeur joked that she 'doesn't like Swiatek very much right now' after her straight-sets defeat
Swiatek is already the world No. 1 and consolidated her place above the competition in NYC
A rueful looking Jabeur said: 'I want to thank the crowd for cheering me up. I really tried but Iga didn't make it easy for me. She deserved to win today. I don't like her very much right now but it's OK.
'An amazing two weeks, backing up my final in Wimbledon. I'm going to keep working hard and we'll get that title sometime soon.
'I try to push myself to do more. Hopefully I can inspire more and more generations. This is just the beginning of so many things.'

Enrique Hernandez went 4-for-6 and Rafael Devers hit a first-inning grand slam as part of a five-RBI night to jump-start the Boston Red Sox in Saturday’s 17-4 rout of the host Baltimore Orioles.
Christian Arroyo also homered as one of eight multi-hit batters for Boston (68-72), which had lost four straight to begin its current six-game trip.
Alex Verdugo and Abraham Almonte both had two hits and scored two runs as the Red Sox totaled 21 hits. Trevor Story and Arroyo had three RBIs apiece.
Red Sox starter Michael Wacha (11-1), who hasn’t lost since May 31, struck out five and scattered six hits across six innings of three-run ball.
Cedric Mullins and Ryan Mountcastle each went 2-for-4 for the Orioles (73-66). Mullins, who homered and had two RBI, has five hits in the last two games.
Jordan Lyles (10-10) took the loss after allowing eight runs on seven hits in 3 2/3 innings.
The Red Sox worked Lyles early, scoring four on the Devers grand slam before an out was recorded in a 37-pitch first inning. Tommy Pham worked a leadoff walk on nine pitches, Alex Verdugo lined a single to center, and Xander Bogaerts was hit by a pitch to load the bases.
Wacha worked around Anthony Santander’s two-out single in the opening frame and retired eight of the first nine batters he faced, but Mullins got Baltimore on the scoreboard with a two-out solo homer to right-center in the third.
Boston broke the game open with a four-run fourth. Hernandez and Kevin Plawecki traded places on one-out doubles, while Verdugo added a two-out single to right two batters later.
After a Bogaerts single chased Lyles, Devers and Story logged back-to-back RBI singles to make it 8-1.
In the fifth, Arroyo sent a two-run homer out to left after J.D. Martinez hit a leadoff double as the Red Sox extended their lead to 10-1. The Orioles got two runs back on Jorge Mateo’s sacrifice fly and a soft Mullins single into left.
The teams traded eighth-inning runs on singles by Story and Mountcastle.
Boston scored six runs in the ninth on four RBI singles, including one by Connor Wong, and two bases-loaded walks.
Pham left in the fourth with a left-shin contusion. He is day-to-day because of the injury.

When Iowans should get the new COVID vaccine booster
The updated COVID-19 booster started rolling out this week in Des Moines. As winter approaches, health officials say some people should start making plans to get it as soon as possible.

When to get it: If you're 60 and older or immunocompromised, you should get it as soon as possible, according to NPR.Some people may feel a preference to wait until the holiday season so they're at maximum protection when visiting family and when cases are expected to surge in November and December.If that's the case, waiting until later in September or October is reasonable, NPR reports.Who should wait: People who received the COVID-19 vaccine or booster within the last 60 days.If you were recently infected with COVID, you should also wait for two months.Where to find it: Hy-Vee, CVS and Walgreens pharmacies are offering appointments now and the Polk County Health Department expects to have available supply soon.

A reader is frustrated that publishers are obsessed with making video games bigger and longer and wishes they could be shorter and cheaper.
These are strange days for the world of video games. The pandemic saw them raised to a level of mainstream acceptance never before seen, but already publishers are reporting sales being down by 25% or more, as the pandemic catches up with them and the number of new releases slows to a trickle.
At the same time, everyone is trying to buy everyone else and already it seems as if there’ll only be three or four major publishers within a couple of years, with everyone else just being a subsidiary of someone else – with all that implies about homogenised end products and corporate interference (not to mention mass redundancies as companies strip out what they don’t want or need).
These are all worrying trends but what concerns me the most, especially as it’s not something most people seem to be talking about, is the games themselves. The quality of the best titles has never been higher, but I am increasingly concerned that publishers have got themselves into an inescapable cycle of believing bigger is always better, no matter the cost to the customer or the people making the games.
Back in the 90s, the average video game didn’t take more than two to four hours to beat, once you knew what you were doing, but that number has steadily increased throughout the years, to the point where even 12 hours is considered short for a single-player game. To me this is madness. Given how busy most people are it’s almost impossible to beat most AAA game in any less than a month. It took me three to beat Elden Ring and that was with missing out a ton of it, I’m sure.
Everyone wants value for money, obviously, but publishers seem to have given up any sense of the practicality of playing such games. Where are we supposed to get the time? I’m a Game Pass subscriber and I have access to so many 30+ hour games it’s literally impossible for me to play them all, whether I want to or not. Every publisher seems to design their games with the assumption it will be the only one you touch for months on end. But why?
What do they gain from that? You’ve bought the game, what more do they want? Sure, they probably want you to buy more DLC but it’s just as likely, I’d argue more likely, you’d do that if you beat the story and wanted more.
And what about the impact on stories? Most movies are two hours long, even the longest novel can be read within about 15 hours, so what surprise is it that most video game stories are terrible when they’re trying to drag things out for 60 hours? Just think of the ones that are good: they’re mostly indie games that only last a few hours. Or there’s Elden Ring, which doesn’t really have an explicitly told story but instead leaves you to fill in the blanks.
These games understand how to use their time to tell a story, but Elden Ring is still too long. The biggest complaint is the number of repeated bosses, so why do it? The game repeats lots of other things too, and while it doesn’t feel as bloated as something like Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, I’m still certain a more slimline game, with less repetition, would have been a better game.
It’s far from the worst offender though. Consider games like Alien Isolation, every Assassin’s Creed, The Last Of Us Part 2, Persona 5, and Red Dead Redemption 2. Great for the first half but then they go on and on and on, never adding anything new but just never knowing when to stop.
This ruins the story and the pacing, but it also has the effect of increasing the length of time these games take to make. It was interested to hear that the reason there’s only going to be two God of War games based on Norse mythology is because it’d just take too long to make them. No-one wants to spend 15+ years of their life making a single trilogy, but that’s the reality of modern games.
I remember when Spider-Man: Miles Morales was reviewed and GC hoped that it would stand as proof of a game that was better than its predecessor precisely because it was shorter, more focused, and had no chance to wear out its welcome. They guessed, as I did, that it would have no influence at all, and was only that length because Sony wanted the game out for the launch of the PlayStation 5, but imagine if it had inspired a whole new generation of games.
Miles Morales is £50, lasts for about eight hours, and I enjoyed every moment. Compare that to the original Spider-Man, which would be £70 on the PlayStation 5 if it was new today, lasts around 17 hours, has a bloated story, is jam-packed with dozens of completely uninteresting collectathon side quests, and will have a five year gap between it and its sequel.
If games were shorter, cheaper, and quicker to make it’d be better for everyone. I’m sure that will never happen though. Bigger is better is the only concept publishers seem to understand and if you’re reading this and thinking I’m talking nonsense, just come back to me in 10 years when games are £90 each, last a minimum of 30 hours, and it takes eight years to make each one.
Maybe that seems absurd to you but think how bizarre today’s situation would appear to someone from the 90s. At some point someone has to say enough is enough and put a stop to the endless growth, but I don’t know who that’s going to be or when…

Speaking with the Hollywood Reporter, the versatile star said he was “really moved by the story. When they threw it at me for the first time, I thought, “This is exactly the kind of movie that I love and love to watch and would love to be in.” It was that easy.
“I think the issues it deals with in the microcosm of a family, namely the way you heal the macro of the world, is a wonderful new idea.”
The multi-talented star was also impressed with the latest technology, explaining, “I think they’re updating the animation now… what they’re doing in this movie is just extraordinary.”

Fujifilm Fujinon XF 56mm F1.2 R WR sample photos:
Fujinon XF 56mm F1.2 R WR Image Quality:
As you’ll be able to see from these images, the lens is able to deliver impressive levels of detail and sharp crisp images, with excellent resolving detail even into the corners of the frame. In addition, with a bright f1.2 aperture, the lens offers pleasing subject separation, as well as giving the photographer the ability to shoot in low-light conditions. Bokeh (blur in out of focus areas) is extremely pleasing, with smooth fall-off, and clean edges around the “bokeh balls”. The closer focus distance of 50cm is also extremely useful, and even when shooting at this distance, detail remains very good.
With such impressive performance, it’s likely this lens will be high on the list of the best Fujifilm X-Mount lenses.

The striking number from Dior Haute Couture hung off the actress' shoulders and it ultra sheer skirt put her toned legs on display.
The sheer fabric was also used for both arms, while the neckline had a frayed style to give it a touch of edginess.
Rounding out her overall look, the leading lady stepped out in a pair of black strappy heels, and styled her blonde tresses long and flowing to about the middle of her back with an extreme part on the left.

Lawrence also took some time out to snuggle up next to Henry, 40, who was decked out in a pinkish suit and dress shirt and brown leather shoes.
The two stars of the film, which is the first project from Lawrence's production company Excellent Cadaver, also joined up for a group photo with co-star Linda Emond and director Lila Neugebauer and producer Justine Ciarrocchid.
Neugebauer helmed the film from a script by Elizabeth Sanders, Luke Goebel and Ottessa Moshfegh that also stars Stephen McKinley Henderson, Jayne Houdyshell, Russell Harvard, Joshua Hull and Fred Weller, among others.
In Causeway, Lawrence plays a U.S. soldier who returns home to New Orleans after suffering a traumatic brain injury while serving in Afghanistan, according to Variety. She struggles to return to her daily life with her mother as she waits for her eventual redeployment.

The leads: Lawrence also stuck a few poses with her co-star Brian Tyree Henry, 40, who looked handsome in a pinkish suit and dress shirt with brown leather shoes
While the film focuses on acute post-traumatic stress, there's also elements of childhood trauma weaved into the storyline.
'Her untenable home, her inability to commit to one thing or another because of these internal injuries that are completely invisible but huge — I think I connected with that at that specific time in my life,' the first-time mother revealed to Deadline. 'So much was going on with me at that time that I didn't realize. Until I was back, pregnant, married, making it [the film]. And I was just like, "Oh, this is a woman who is scared to commit."'
Lawrence and husband Cooke Maroney are the proud parents of a boy Cy, whom she revealed is named after the late American painter, sculptor and photographer, Cy Twombly.
Causeway is scheduled to be released theatrically and on Apple TV+ on November .
The Toronto International Film Festival kicked off on Thursday and runs through until Sunday, September 18.

The shoulder injury to Duane Brown was in fact enough to place the left tackle on injured reserve, per NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo.
Buy Jets Tickets#Jets LT Duane Brown will be placed on IR today with the hope he’ll be back in a few weeks, sources say. Brown and doctors discussed multiple options, including surgery, but Brown wants to rehab and try to return as soon as Week 5.
— Mike Garafolo (@MikeGarafolo) September 10, 2022
Brown will now miss at least four games but hopes that is all he is going to miss. He can return for Week 5 against the Dolphins.
Per Will Parkinson of the Turn on the Jets podcast, Brown’s injury is to his rotator cuff. He opted for rehab over surgery and will attempt to come back after just four weeks.

The Jets elevated offensive tackle Grant Hermanns from the practice squad. It will be George Fant at left tackle and Max Mitchell at right tackle with Hermanns and Conor McDermott as the reserve tackles.
New York is now assured of playing at least through the Baltimore, Cleveland and Cincinnati games without Brown and quarterback Zach Wilson. Not exactly what the team envisioned before the first preseason game.

The Vikings' season opener is against the rival Green Bay Packers. It's also the debut of head coach Kevin O'Connell, who didn't play his starters in preseason games and ran a vanilla offense.
The Packers gave us plenty of backup quarterback Jordan Love during the preseason, so we don't know who Aaron Rodgers will target as a replacement for the departed Davante Adams.
Since this is the season opener, neither team has fresh tape of the other. Green Bay can look at Rams film from last year to get an idea of what O'Connell might run, but they can't be sure how much different KOC the head coach will be from KOC the assistant. The Vikings have no indicators of what an Adams-less Packers offense looks like.
"It goes both ways," Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins said. "I'm watching tape and there aren't a lot of their starters out there playing in the preseason."
Because of these factors, the first half on Sunday could be absolutely nuts.
O'Connell could open up the playbook right away and see if he can get the Packers' heads spinning while defending an array of formations. Meanwhile, Green Bay will test out the Vikings' new 3-4 defense and see how it holds up against the run. The Packers have the running backs in Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon to exploit a weak run defense.
The unfamiliarity on both sides — creating the potential for immediate madness at U.S Bank Stadium — will be one of a few fascinating story lines heading into this game. Here are a few more:
Who is healthy in the green and gold? Top offensive linemen David Bakhtiari and Elgton Jenkins, both returning from torn ACLs, have been practicing, but it's not known if they are ready to play Sunday. Wide receiver Allen Lazard might not play because of a sore ankle. Safety Darnell Savage is banged up. These are all important players for the Packers, and their unavailability puts Green Bay at a disadvantage, especially with the potential absences on offense.
Spotlight on O'Connell couldn't be brighter: O'Connell joins a team expecting to win, with fans expecting to score a lot a points and with everyone looking to make a statement on Sunday.
"This isn't just any other game," he acknowledged. "It is my first game as a head coach, against a divisional rival. I'm well aware of the importance of this football game for our team. But I also think it's important to know, we're not getting in the playoffs by the outcome of Sunday."
Still, this is the debut of a rookie head coach on a team with high expectations. All we know is that he comes from the defending Super Bowl champions. We are about to find out how he runs a team.
Is the defense fixed? All the Vikings need to do is stop the flood of points by opponents toward the end of the second and fourth quarters, and this defense will be vastly improved. Within that, the Vikings have had one of the worst run defenses over the last two seasons. Ed Donatell's 3-4 scheme needs to address that.
The signing of nose tackle Harrison Phillips should help. Defensive lineman Dalvin Tomlinson looks ready to have a big season. Linebackers Eric Kendricks and Jordan Hicks could thrive if the big fellas up front do their jobs. The Vikings have the makings of an effective front seven, but Danielle Hunter and Za'Darius Smith must stay healthy. There's no doubt that Rodgers will probe this defense for soft spots on Sunday.
Two predictions
Twins turnaround
The Twins will sweep the Royals in a midweek series before heading to Cleveland for five massive games.
Football comeback
Former Vikings defensive lineman Linval Joseph still lives in the Twin Cities and wants to play. Look for him to sign with a team by the end of the month as clubs deal with injuries and continue to evaluate their rosters.

Iga Swiatek and Ons Jabeur battled it out on the court with the former winning a competitive US Open final on Saturday. While Swiatek clinched her third Grand Slam title, Jabeur lost her second consecutive final at a Major.
The two players were as cordial and respectful of each other off the court as they were competitive on it. A special moment between the two during the trophy ceremony caught the tennis world's attention for all the right reasons.
Jabeur, a huge fan favorite, was seen straightening the collar of Swiatek's jacket, ensuring it was perfect during the trophy ceremony. The moment was clicked by WTA photographer Jimmie, who posted the picture on his Twitter handle.
"My favorite ceremony moment was Ons Jabeur making sure Iga Swiatek's collar is all sorted out. She's a gem we don't deserve," read the caption of Jimmie's post.
Jabeur lauded Swiatek for her performance in the final before joking that she 'does not like' Swiatek right now for beating her in the final. The two players were quite respectful towards each other post-match. Soon after Swiatek clinched the title as a forehand from Jabeur went long, the duo shared a warm embrace on the court.
"I want to thank the crowd for cheering me up. I really tried but Iga did not make it easy for me. She deserves to win today. I don't like her very much right now, but it's okay," Ons Jabeur said in her on-court interview during the trophy ceremony.
How the US Open final played out between Iga Swiatek and Ons Jabeur
World No. 1 Iga Swiatek started on the front foot, breaking Ons Jabeur's serve early in the opening set to rush to a 3-0 lead. Jabeur made a small comeback to get to 3-2, but the Polish player then won the next four games to clinch the opening set 6-2.
It was the 19th consecutive set won by Swiatek in a WTA final. She entered the US Open final on a nine-match winning streak in WTA finals, all won in straight sets.
The Pole continued her momentum in the second set, rushing to another 3-0 lead. Jabeur faced a double break of serve at 15-40 in the 4th game, but soon found her mojo to mount a strong comeback in the match. Jabeur kept the pressure on Swiatek and forced a tiebreaker in the second set, even saving a match point in her final service game of the set.
Both players took turns to strike blows during the tiebreaker and Swiatek eventually converted on her second 'championship point' at 6-5 in the tiebreaker.
The Polish player won her maiden Grand Slam title on a surface other than clay and further asserted her dominance in the WTA rankings with the victory.

President Biden said Friday that he plans to attend Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral, following the British head of state’s death the previous day.
“Yes. I don’t know what the details are yet, but I’ll be going,” Biden told reporters while on a trip to Ohio.
The funeral could take place on Sept. 19, which would be 10 days after her death, at Westminster Abbey in London. The plan for the queen’s death, which is called Operation London Bridge, has been in place for decades and outlines the protocol for each day up until the funeral.
The president, along with many other world leaders, is currently scheduled to be in New York on Sept. 19 for the beginning of the United Nations General Assembly.
Earlier on Friday, the White House would not confirm if the president would attend the funeral.
“One of the things that we want to be mindful of, as you all know, there’s a process,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters.
The president has honored the life of the queen in various ways since her death, putting out an official statement, signing a condolence book at the British Embassy and mentioning her at the top of remarks at a Democratic National Committee (DNC) event on Thursday evening.
“I had the opportunity to meet her before she passed and she was an incredibly decent and gracious woman. And the thoughts and prayers of the American people are with the people of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth in their grief,” he said.
During the DNC event, Biden told a Daily Mail reporter that he would “probably” attend the queen’s funeral.

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II remembered by special pitch markings at West Norfolk Rugby Club
More news, no ads
LEARN MOREWest Norfolk Rugby Club went the extra mile to remember her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II at their first home game of the season today.
Thanks to a special piece of software installed into a laser marking machine, the club were able to display the letters ER with II in between the letters.
Club groundsman Will Hancock marked the letters out on the pitch based on a template.
After the game, West Norfolk Rugby Club chairman Graham Woodcock said: "We were guided by the RFU in playing our game today and we wanted to do something a little bit different to remember The Queen.
"When our groundsman Will approached me about it I thought it was a wonderful idea. We also held a minute's silence to remember Her Majesty before the game.
"We've had a fantastic day. We paid our respects, achieved a fantastic 75-10 win and now find ourselves top of the league."
Rugby and cricket fixtures went ahead today, but the UK’s football authorities decided to postpone all fixtures planned for this weekend as a mark of respect to The Queen.

How to find a holiday home in southwest France for less
Home to Armagnac, the Pyrenees and foie gras, the region offers an affordable, more tranquil alternative to hotspots on the Med — buy in from under €100,000
From Henry II’s 12th-century incursion to the more recent invasion of middle England homebuyers, there’s something about the stunning river valleys and bastide towns of southwest France that we can’t resist.
“If you want variety — and that can encompass architecture, food, landscape, wine and climate — it offers endless possibilities,” says Julie Savill from Beaux Villages Immobilier.
The comparative value for money is appealing, too, attracting younger buyers than Mediterranean hotspots. In its annual Prime France Report, the property consultancy Knight Frank notes that “young families are increasing in number, attracted by the lifestyle and ever-improving accessibility”. It said that the average age of a “prime buyer in the region is lower than before the pandemic”.
Southwestern France offers great-value property across all

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — Renagi Ravu was meeting with colleagues at his home in the Papua New Guinea highlands Sunday morning when a huge magnitude 7.6 earthquake struck.
Ravu tried to stand up from his chair but couldn't maintain his balance and so ended up in a kind of group hug with his colleagues, while plates and cups crashed from his shelves to the ground. His children, ages 9 and 2, had their drinks and breakfast spill over.
Ravu, who is a geologist, said he tried to calm everybody as the shaking continued for more than a minute.
The extent of the damage and whether there have been serious injuries or deaths from the quake was not clear in the immediate aftermath in the remote and underdeveloped region.
Ravu said that about 10,000 people live in and around his town of Kainantu, which is located 67 kilometers (42 miles) from the quake's epicenter and was the nearest big town to the quake. He said there are many scattered settlements in the highlands, and tens of thousands of people might have been affected.
On Sunday morning, Ravu was still sorting through the damage to his home, which he said likely included a broken sewer pipe judging from the smell. He said friends elsewhere in Kainantu had messaged him with descriptions of broken pipes and fallen debris, but hadn't described major building collapses or injuries.
A magnitude 7.5 earthquake in 2018 in the nation’s central region killed at least 125 people. That quake hit areas that are remote and undeveloped, and assessments about the scale of the damage and injuries were slow to filter out.
According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the quake hit at 9:46 a.m. local time. Initial readings put the quake at a depth of some 50 to 60 kilometers (30 to 40 miles).
NOAA has since advised there is no tsunami threat for the area.
The extent of damage is not yet clear, but the USGS estimates “some casualties and damage are possible and the impact should be relatively localized.”
Papua New Guinea is located on the eastern half of the island of New Guinea, to the east of Indonesia and north of eastern Australia.
It sits on the Pacific’s “Ring of Fire,” the arc of seismic faults around the Pacific Ocean where much of the world’s earthquakes and volcanic activity occurs.

Sept. 10 (UPI) -- Elon Musk's SpaceX launched 34 more Starlink satellites with AST SpaceMobile's BlueWalker 3 satellite to low-Earth orbit on Saturday.
The satellites were launched by a two-stage Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center in Florida after targeting a 9:20 p.m. liftoff due to weather.
The first stage of the Falcon 9 rocket landed on the A Shortfall of Gravitas drone ship positioned in the Atlantic Ocean about eight minutes later, completing the record-breaking 14th flight for a first-stage SpaceX booster.
The Falcon 9's first stage previously launched Crew Demo-2, ANASIS-II, CRS-21, Transporter-1, Transporter-3 and eight Starlink missions.
The BlueWalker 3 satellite was expected to be deployed first before SpaceX added the Starlink satellites to its constellation.
"One of our most complex missions," SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said on Twitter on Friday.
SpaceX has launched more than 3,250 satellites into low-Earth orbit with 2,470 operational, according to an online tracker. The company launched its first 60 satellites in May 2019.
Blue Walker 3 is a test satellite from AST SpaceMobile, which aims to build "the first and only space-based cellular broadband network to be accessible by standard smartphones," according to the company's website.
"Called SpaceMobile, this ultra-powerful network is being designed to provide connectivity at 4G/5G speeds everywhere on the planet -- on land, at sea and in flight," the company said.
AST SpaceMobile is based in Midland, Texas.

Basketball Hall of Fame enshrines its new Class of 2022
Tim Hardaway took the stage and told a story of his early days in the NBA, when Golden State teammates Mitch Richmond and Chris Mullin would often ask him the same question.
"They would ask me, 'Tim, how great do you want to be?'" Hardaway said.
They have their answer. So does everyone else. He's a basketball immortal.
Hardaway, Manu Ginobili, Swin Cash, Bob Huggins, Del Harris, Lindsay Whalen, Marianne Stanley, Theresa Shank Grentz and George Karl all delivered their enshrinement addresses as new members of the Basketball Hall of Fame on Saturday night in Springfield, Massachusetts.
"A kid from the east side of Chicago made it all the way to Springfield, Massachusetts," Hardaway said. "Incredible."
Such was the theme throughout the night: how an honor that none of the new Hall members imagined has now come their way, each of them thanking those who helped them reached the pinnacle.
Ginobili was presented by Tim Duncan, already a Hall of Famer himself, and next year the third member of San Antonio's legendary Big 3 of players — Tony Parker — will be eligible for selection.
"The Spurs were one big, strong, supportive family for me," Ginobili said.
Someday, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich will be in the Hall as well; the NBA's all-time wins leader doesn't want to be considered until his career is over. Ginobili reserved special tribute for him.
"Pop, what can I say? You've been so, so important for me and my family, on and off the court, that'll I never be able to thank you enough," Ginobili said, his voice cracking.
Cash — an NCAA, WNBA and Olympic champion — also paid tribute to her coach at UConn, Hall of Famer Geno Auriemma and her Huskies teammates, including the group that went 39-0 for her senior season in 2001-02.
"If anyone's debating the greatest basketball team ever, ask about us," said Cash, who now works in the front office of the New Orleans Pelicans.
Duncan and Ginobili weren't the only teammates in the building. Stanley and Shank Grentz were teammates at Immaculata in the 1970s, before going on to coaching careers — and now, the Hall, together.
"It's the privilege of a lifetime," Stanley said.
Added Shank Grentz, who, like all inductees, learned of her selection in April: "I am still overwhelmed."
Whalen, whose legendary playing career has been followed by her returning to alma mater Minnesota and coaching there, might have had a Hall of Fame first by thanking a fast-food company.
"Thank you, Burger King," Whalen said.
To explain: When Whalen — a converted hockey player — was going to her first basketball camp, she was anxious, crying, not wanting to go into the gym. But her parents had paid for camp and weren't going to let her back out, so negotiations quickly took place. The agreement was eventually struck; if Whalen would go to camp, she'd get a Whopper Jr., with cheese, for the ride home.
"I ended up having a great time," Whalen said.
Her parents not wanting her to play hockey was her twist of fate. For Harris, his was a professor encouraging him to take a year to coach a junior-high basketball team before joining the seminary.
Harris was going to be a pastor; ironically, basketball's founder, Dr. James Naismith, also was a pastor. Instead, Harris followed in another set of Naismith's footsteps, as a coach.
"After that year, I knew what I wanted to do with my life," said Harris, who coached at just about every imaginable level — high school, college, the NBA, international teams and at the FIBA level.
His path to the Hall came from modest beginnings, just like Huggins — who now coaches at his alma mater, West Virginia and has won more than 900 games in his collegiate career — and Karl, who got emotional when he paid tribute to his college coach at North Carolina, Dean Smith, and got laughs when talking about the challenge of coaching a Hall of Famer like Gary Payton.
"This is really incredible for a guy from Penn Hills, Pennsylvania," Karl said. "This is a 'wow' moment for me."
Huggins even did a little coaching as he paid tribute during his speech to Jerry Colangelo, the chairman of the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame.
"You're allowed to clap, I think," Huggins said. "I'm not real sure of the rules, but what the hell, let's just make them as we go."
Hardaway, Richmond and Mullin formed the trio known as "Run TMC," which remains popular today. Mullin entered the Hall in 2011, Richmond three years later. And they were on the stage Saturday night, seated just to Hardaway's left, when his wait finally ended.
"Legendary, baby," Hardaway said. "We was legendary."
Also honored were seven more new Hall members, all deceased: one of NBA's first Black referees in Hugh Evans, six-time All-Star Lou Hudson, former coach Larry Costello, international great Radivoj Korac and a trio of former Harlem Globetrotters in Wyatt "Sonny" Boswell, Inman Jackson and Albert "Runt" Pullins.
And special tribute was paid to two-time Hall of Fame inductee Bill Russell, who made it in as a player, then as a coach. Russell died earlier this year, and the ceremony Saturday began with Hall of Famers Jerry West and Alonzo Mourning paying respect to the 11-time champion.
"Bill was the ultimate competitor on the court and a remarkable human being off of it," West said. "And in his own way, he made all the lives he touched a little better. That's why he'll be missed, especially by those who were fortunate enough to know him."
Added Mourning, who spoke of Russell's work as a champion of social justice: "Rest in power, my friend."

SEATTLE (AP) — Dansby Swanson hit one of Atlanta’s four home runs and the World Series champion Braves grabbed sole possession of first place for the first time all season with a 6-4 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Friday night.
Robbie Grossman, Travis d’Arnaud and rookie Michael Harris II also went deep for the streaking Braves, who won their eighth straight and finally jumped a half-game ahead of the Mets in the NL East after chasing them for five months. New York lost 6-3 at Miami earlier in the night.
“That’s why we’re playing these games: trying to win the division,” Braves manager Brian Snitker said. “That’s our goal. When we left spring training, our No. 1 goal was to win the division. I think they’ve been great in their approach and how they come to work.”
Atlanta was seven games back on Aug. 8 and 10 1/2 behind on June 1. The only previous day this season the Mets did not hold at least a share of the division lead was April 11.
“It shows how dedicated we are to winning and how much we want to win,” Harris said. “We were down 10 games at one point and now we’re leading the East. That was our main goal. We got to it and now we’re just trying to keep it.”
Carlos Santana homered twice for the Mariners, and J.P. Crawford also connected.
Braves starter Charlie Morton (8-5) allowed four runs in 6 1/3 innings. Grossman had three hits and two RBIs.
“I can’t say enough about (Grossman) — just the professional he is, how he shows up every day and he’s ready to go,” Snitker said. “Even if he’s not in the starting lineup, he’s always ready. We’ve been very fortunate this year that those guys at the back end of the lineup have done a lot of damage for us.”
Swanson gave Atlanta a 2-0 lead in the first with a two-run homer off Robbie Ray (12-9), who gave up four runs in five innings.
After a walk to Jesse Winker in the second, Santana tied it with a home run.
Atlanta reclaimed the lead in the fourth when Harris led off with a double and scored on Grossman’s single.
A two-out homer by d’Arnaud in the fifth made it 4-2. Crawford answered with a solo shot in the bottom half, his first home run since June 1.
Harris and Grossman both homered in the sixth to make it 6-3.
“It was the night of the home run, I guess,” Mariners manager Scott Servais said. “They hit one more than we did. The ball was getting out of here tonight.”
Santana hit his second home run of the game and 14th of the season in the seventh. Seattle then had runners on first and second with two outs, but A.J. Minter struck out Ty France to end the inning.
Raisel Iglesias struck out three in a hitless eighth and Kenley Jansen whiffed two in a 1-2-3 ninth for his 33rd save.
Seattle has lost three of four but is four games ahead of Baltimore for the final American League wild card.
“Carlos kept us in the game,” Servais said. “Carlos had really good at-bats tonight when we needed it. It’s hard to string a lot of hits together against a guy like (Morton), so you’re going to have to hit the long ball, and we did. We were right there in the ballgame.”
TRAINER’S ROOM
The Mariners placed utility player Dylan Moore (oblique) on the 10-day injured list Aug. 30. Servais said Friday that Moore is “feeling better,” but not doing much rotational work or swinging a bat yet. “We’ll find out in the next couple of days where he’s at,” Servais said. “He’s a nice weapon to have. We’ve missed him. We’ll know more once we get through the weekend.”
UP NEXT
Braves: LHP Max Fried (13-5, 2.48 ERA) starts the middle game of the interleague series Saturday. He pitched five scoreless innings before a rain delay Sunday during Atlanta’s win over Miami.
Mariners: RHP George Kirby (6-3, 3.15) will take the mound. Kirby was the AL rookie of the month for August after going 4-0 in five starts with a 2.15 ERA.

OXFORD, Ohio — Aveon Smith threw three touchdown passes — including two to Mac Hippenhammer — to help Miami (Ohio) beat Robert Morris 31-14 Saturday night.
Smith passed for 155 yards and three touchdowns with an interception and Hippenhammer finished with four receptions for 54 yards. Seven different Miami players combined for the Redhawks' 218 yards rushing on 41 carries.
Anthony Purge scored on a 2-yard run to give Robert Morris (0-2) a 7-3 lead less than 5 minutes into the game but Smith hit Luke Bolden for a 17-yard touchdown with 3:42 left in the first quarter and Miami led the rest of the way.
John Saunders Jr. returned an interception 7 yards and, on the next play, Smith hit Hippenhammer in the back corner of the end zone for a 22-yard touchdown early in the second quarter, Keyon Mozee's 1-yard TD run about 10 minutes later made it 24-7 at halftime and Hippenhammer scored on a 17-yard touchdown catch early in the fourth quarter.
Robert Morris finished with 219 total yards — including 40 yards rushing on 27 attempts — and had just nine first downs.

Discussion between community and Akron police unveils suspicions, but seen as 'first step'
A forum Saturday at Burning Bush Church in downtown Akron demonstrated that tensions between police and the city's African American community remain high more than two months after the July 27 shooting of Jayland Walker.
The three-hour Cops + Community event, billed as a discussion between police, pastors and the community, also revealed a consensus that the breach won't be easy to repair.
"There is a lot of people in the Black community that believe the police department has not taken accountability," said DeJuan Kelker, pastor of Burning Bush Church, at the opening of the discussion. His church organized the event, hoping to begin a healing process.
Medical examiner's report:Jayland Walker had 46 entrance wounds and died from 'devastating injuries'
Questions and comments from attendees addressed the issue raised by Kelker, along with several other concerns, making the case to Akron Police Department Chief Steve Mylett and Mayor Dan Horrigan that accountability for police actions is necessary to build trust and change perceptions.
Mylett said he understood the need for better communication, at times likening the effort to building a bridge between police and the communities they serve.
"It hurts my heart to hear and feel the lack of trust," Mylett said. "I am committed to you to build that bridge and break down the barriers as much as possible."
The forum came a week after a Sept. 3 incident in which a 16-year-old was shot in the hand by a police officer. An unidentified attendee questioned why officers' body cameras weren't turned on until after the shooting took place.
Akron police:Armed 16-year-old shot in hand by officer Saturday evening in Akron
Issues with body cameras, disparity in treatment
"I'm sick and tired of the body cameras that are turned off," she said.
One of six officers who attended with Mylett and Lt. Michael Miller explained that officers must press a button twice for the camera to activate.
"Sometimes, the body cams don't come on," he said.
In a chaotic situation, he said, an officer might fail to start the camera and not have time to check if it is operating properly.
Bodycams turned off:Akron police did not activate body cameras as teen was shot by officer
Horrigan said the issue might be correctable.
"We, as a city, need to investigate in that technology," he said.
In some "dynamic" situations that require immediate attention, officers are excused from starting the cameras if they must act quickly, Mylett said.
"I would rather have that than for them to take the extra second or two," he said.
Other questions focused on disparity of treatment depending on race.
"There should be no difference in the de-escalation process …," Mylett said. "I am listening and will develop actions behind it."
Akron FOP says:Officers who shot Jayland Walker 'weren’t chasing him just because of an equipment violation'
One attendee said she worries a traffic stop involving her autistic child could be mishandled by officers not trained to deal with his condition. A 61-year-old woman said she was closely followed by police for no apparent reason, later calling the non-emergency line to find out why. Other audience members spoke of confrontations they or family and friends had with the police.
Edward Smith, executive director of Students With A Goal, said African American children often grow up with negative impressions of police.
"You've seen a lot of videos that have you scared to death," he said. "Our youth need to meet with … officers at a positive time."
Bishop Flanvis Josephus Johnson II, senior pastor of House of the Lord in Akron, said bridging the gap between police and the community will take effort from both sides.
"We are all part of the culture and we are all contributing (to it)," he said. "Culture eats procedures and policy for lunch. The culture we need is respect and trust."
Akron NAACP President Judi Hill said a charter amendment establishing a civilian review board would provide a way to change negative perceptions. She said becoming engaged in the political process can help empower residents."When you are involved in a process as citizens, you take ownership," she said.
Charter amendment vs. ordinance on police reform in Akron
Other suggestions from her organization include conducting officer training in different communities to expose more residents to the officers hired to serve them.
"People want to believe in this process," she said. "Some of us are tired of talking."
Horrigan said he supports aspects of the proposed charter amendment, but believes an ordinance his administration unveiled Aug. 30 will accomplish the same goals.
Akron police reform:From George Floyd to Jayland Walker, here's where police reform stands in Akron.
Mylett said efforts to work on his department's relationships with the communities it serves are hampered by a shortage of officers.
"We are woefully understaffed," he said.
The police chief argued that confrontations involving the use of force are relatively rare.
Of 150,000 contacts registered in 2021, Mylett said, only 52 complaints resulted. If other disputes are occuring, they need to be called to his attention, he said.
"If I don't know about something, how can I correct it?" he said.
Horrigan said he couldn't answer a question about the Jayland Walker case due to the ongoing investigation.
"There are questions that I have that I can't get answers (to) yet," he said.
Attendees in Akron voice concerns about racism
One attendee said police departments throughout the U.S. and Ohio have been infiltrated by racists and Ku Klux Klan members, and Mylett vowed he would remove any officer who held such views.
"If any officer shows any racist tendencies or KKK behavior, they're not going to be in (the department)," he said.Mylett said the forum demonstrated the need for him to connect police with the community.
"I need to figure out a way to bring the line officers and the community together," he said. "… That is a takeaway for me."
The police chief said he would pray for better relations and continue to communicate with concerned citizens.
"The more we can educate, (the more) we will avoid tragic situations on both sides," he said.
Kelker said after the discussion it had been fruitful.
"I believe that everybody's voice was heard," he said. "It's a step in the right direction."

EXPLAINER: Why the term ‘genocide’ matters in Ukraine war
WASHINGTON (AP) — When President Joe Biden declares Russia’s Ukraine war “genocide,” it isn’t just another strong word. Calling a campaign that’s aimed at wiping out a targeted group “genocide” not only increases pressure on a country to act, it can oblige it to. That’s partly because of a genocide treaty approved by the U.N. General Assembly after World War II, signed by the United States and more than 150 other nations.

Revelstoke locals took home gold in the 55 Plus Canada Games in August.
The 55 Plus Canada Games were held in Kamloops in August. The games had 26 official events for the tournament, including golf. Among the Revelstoke golfers who competed in the tournament was Heather Sirianni and Lew Hendrickson, who both won gold.
“I started golfing probably 25 years ago. So, there’s hope for everybody,” said Sirianni with a laugh.
Although Sirianni hasn’t played golf her whole life, she’s always been competitive. With provincial wins in basketball in high school and competitive leagues thereafter. She’s picked up golfing more since she and her partner retired 10 years ago.
“Seven years ago, we moved back to Revelstoke and back to our home course. And this is where we got all our skills from,” said Sirianni.
Lew Hendrickson also said playing at the Revelstoke Golf Club is part of what’s contributed to his success.
“Golfing in Revelstoke, on the Revelstoke golf course, pretty much prepares you for any place you go play because it’s as good as it gets, and as tough as it gets,” said Hendrickson.
The win –for Hendrickson– was a first in the Canada Games, but not in his golfing career. Hendrickson has competed in the BC 55 Plus Games before, winning one year and coming second in two other years.
Competing in the 70–80 age division, Hendrickson secured the win quickly.
“I knew pretty much halfway through the second game that I was going to win by a lot. So that was pretty stress free,” said Hendrickson.
Finishing her second round, Sirianni wasn’t sure whether she’d actually won. Having competed in a tough round, the other ladies that Sirianni played with were called before her for bronze and silver medals.
“I really didn’t think that I had the strokes, but I guess they did. And when they called my name, it was just there was a bit of a roar and there I go,” said Sirianni.
The two celebrated in very different ways. Hendrickson had to skip the medal ceremony to get back to Revelstoke because his wife had COVID.
“At my age celebrating isn’t something I do,” said Hendrickson with a chuckle.
For her part, after a brief toast with the other medalists, Sirianni also hit the road to head back to Revelstoke but was greeted by a very proud and excited family.
“It was great. Oh, my God—hugs! All my grandkids wanted to try my medal,” said Sirianni.
Sirianni heads to the BC 55 Plus Games in Victoria next week. Despite being the reigning Canadian champion of her age, Sirianni isn’t feeling pressure going into the tournament.
“This is going to be fun and relaxing. This one was the big one, so this will be more relaxing,” said Sirianni.

Charles proclaimed king in historic ceremony live on TV for first time
Sept. 10, 2022 Updated Sat., Sept. 10, 2022 at 8:50 p.m.
LONDON – The Garter King of Arms, an official member of the royal household since 1415, took to the balcony of St. James’s Palace in central London on Saturday to proclaim to all of the United Kingdom that there was a new monarch: King Charles III.
Holding a scepter and wearing an ostrich-feathered velvet hat, his reading from a large written proclamation was a historic ritual that’s gone on for hundreds of years. Trumpets – the tweets of yore – blared. Cries of “God save the king” rang out, in a scene that will be repeated across Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland in the next day with more gun salutes and military pomp.
In a twist of history and modernity, the meeting of the historic Accession Council – made up of members of the Church of England, lawmakers and senior state officials – was streamed live for the first time ever. It allowed millions of Brits to watch the ceremony that usually takes place behind closed doors, and was seen as a potential sign of how the new king may intend to reign.
“The King personally asked for television cameras to be allowed in the Accession Council. King Charles III starts his reign as he means to go on. A new transparent monarchy for a modern age,” tweeted royal commentator Charlie Proctor.
The council’s convening, traditionally meant to be as soon as possible after the death of a sovereign, is followed by a meeting in Parliament.
Charles, dressed in black, took an oath before the council while standing alongside Queen Consort Camilla and the new Prince and Princess of Wales William and Catherine. He promised to uphold the church and facilitate the continuity of government – a pledge taken by every sovereign at their accession since George I in 1714.
He referred to the “irreparable loss” the nation has suffered with the death of Queen Elizabeth II and hailed her reign as “unequaled in its duration, its dedication and its devotion.”
“I am deeply aware of this great inheritance and of the duties and heavy responsibilities of Sovereignty which have now passed to me,” he told the council. “I shall strive to follow the inspiring example I have been set.”
Outside the palace, crowds from across the U.K. assembled and fell into a hushed silence as they awaited the proclamation – albeit with modern mobile phones in hand, ready to post scenes from the event online.
Craning their necks, some jostled for a good view. Others, somewhat ironically, took to WhatsApp messaging groups and websites for better views and detailed insights.
“It’s like we’re so close and yet so far,” said Adam Stanton, 32, as he tried to refresh his social media feeds for news. “What are they doing in there? Where are the trumpets?”
After the declaration, the chants hailing Charles rang out – at first tentatively and then more full throated – alongside gun salutes and trumpets. One exasperated mother tried to keep her children engaged in the momentous event: “Guys, I know this is really boring to you but this is actually extremely important,” she was overheard saying.
Online, the tone was less enthusiastic. “No one cares it’s not the middle ages any more,” tweeted one watcher. “Enough now,” said another.
Charles’s mother made her own history when encouraged by her husband, Prince Philip, she gave permission for her coronation to be televised for the first time in 1953.
Amanda Kingston traveled from the Welsh town of Tenby, waking up at 3:15 a.m. to travel to London with her family for the event. In a time of national flux, she said Charles had proved reassuring.
“We said to each this morning, that we feel a lot happier,” she told The Washington Post outside St. James’s Palace. “He looked like a king,” she said of the new monarch. Kingston and her family were devastated by the news of the queen’s death on Thursday and gathered to raise a toast at home in her honor.
Inside the palace, former British Prime ministers mingled, among them Tony Blair, David Cameron and newly ousted Boris Johnson surrounded by senior religious and state officials who make up the council.
Opposition Labour Party leader Keir Starmer called it “a real moment in history.” Speaking to Britain’s Sky News after attending, he said, “on occasions like this we come together.” He and other senior lawmakers will re-swear their own oaths later Saturday to the new King Charles III and will meet with him at Buckingham palace in a smaller private audience.
Flags will be briefly flown at full-staff across the nation for the next 24 hours following the accession ceremony, before returning to half-staff as the United Kingdom continues its 10 days period of national mourning.
The state funeral for Elizabeth is expected to take place on Monday Sept. 19 with world leaders and officials, among them President Biden, due to attend.
What happens at Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral? Here’s what we know so far.
Elizabeth, who died at Balmoral Castle on Thursday, will lie in state in Edinburgh before being transferred to London’s Westminster Abbey. She will then be buried near her husband and father at Windsor Castle.
As crowds ebbed away and the ceremony faded outside St. James’s some people lingered taking in the rare historic moment, others made plans to travel to nearby Buckingham palace to lay flowers and remember the queen.

St. Petersburg Officials Demand Vladimir Putin Be Tried for Treason in Letter
Several municipal lawmakers in St. Petersburg are calling on Russia’s State Duma to charge Vladimir Putin with treason, according to a local lawmaker. Dmitry Palyuga, a deputy with the Smolninskoye municipal council, announced the news on Twitter late Wednesday, sharing a copy of the letter he said had been prepared for Russian lawmakers. “The decision [to send the request to the State Duma] was supported by the majority of deputies present,” he wrote, without specifying exactly how many lawmakers had voted in favor of the move. The letter notes that the lawmakers in Putin’s hometown want him removed from power for his “special military operation” against Ukraine, which they said constitutes high treason. In addition to scores of Russian troops getting killed in the war, the letter notes, “Russia’s economy is suffering” as a result of foreign companies leaving and a huge segment of the population fleeing. NATO is also “expanding” as a result of Putin’s war, despite his declared goal being to stop the alliance from growing, the letter says, adding that the Russian leader’s “demilitarization of Ukraine” has also backfired spectacularly as the West provides more weapons. “We believe that President Putin’s decision to begin the [special military operation] is harming Russia’s security and its citizens,” the letter reads. Notably, the lawmakers made no mention of Putin’s senseless motivations for the war, though they had previously sent him an open letter condemning his “historical fantasies” and demanding he stop the “bloodshed” in neighboring Ukraine.
Putin’s war is shattering views of Russia and Ukraine
Russians, Americans and Europeans are rarely of one mind about anything, but there’s one thing they all agreed on in early 2022: that the Ukrainians wouldn’t fight and the Russian armed forces would control Ukraine in a few days or weeks. Everyone knew that the Ukrainian army was a joke and the Russian army was superb.

We're in Clarksville, TN at our son's home preparing to leave for Mobile, AL to catch a "Carnival Cruise" ship to go on a Western Caribbean trip. (Maybe more on that in a future post.)
Clarksville is a nice little town-
Small enough to be intimate. Big enough to have most "conveniences" within an easy drive. And for us, it's a hop/skip/jump to Ft. Campbell if we need to use our retired benefits.
When Big Bubba bought this house one of the very first items we bought to outfit our part of the new "digs" here (obviously!) was a coffee pot. Bought at Wally World, it was a brand name but cheap... I think I paid $15 for it.
It lasted 8 months. Then something about the heater element went haywire and it would only fill the carafe 3/4's of the way, leaving a mess of coffee grounds and water still in the filter basket.
"No coffee, No talkee" in the morning.
Gotta have coffee, doncha know?
Replacing the failed unit went to the top of our "must do's".
Buying new from Wally World was a possibility. But was there a better option?
We saw the big sign on the front of the store that said "GOODWILL".
Let's check it out.
Big store. Clean. Lotsa stuff.
Some of it older; dated; but still utilitarian.
Much of it looks brand new.
We found a "like new" looking Proctor-Silex unit. The price tag said $4.99.
We loaded it into our shopping cart.
At the cash register I sheepishly ask, "Do you give a military discount?"
"Yes, as a matter of fact we do."
And the price got reduced by Fifty cents!
"Would you like to 'round up' your total cost to donate to Children's Hospital?"
What're ya gonna say when you're walking out the door with a seemingly new coffee pot for less than five bucks?
"Absolutely!"
There is also a "Salvation Army" thrift store here across town. It only takes us 10 minutes or so to get there.
If you have access to either store and have never patronized them, you're missing a bet. Walking through them is not entertaining, you may also find some REAL BARGAINS.
If you do, agree to "Round Up" your total to donate to charity!

Traffic heavy on expressways as people return home following Chuseok
SEOUL, Sept. 11 (Yonhap) -- Most highways and roads were clogged with heavy traffic early Sunday, as people were traveling back home on the third day of the four-day Chuseok holiday.
Chuseok, the Korean autumn harvest celebration, is one of the country's biggest traditional holidays and serves as a chance for family members to get together. Chuseok is celebrated on Aug. 15 in the lunar calendar, which fell on Saturday this year.
According to Korea Expressway Corp., major highways, particularly Seoul-bound ones, were jammed with vehicles, with the road congestion likely to peak at about 4-5 p.m.
As of 9 a.m., the estimated travel time to Seoul was 6 hours and 40 minutes from the southern port city of Busan, about 5 hours and 20 minutes from the southeastern city of Daegu, and 2 hours and 20 minutes from the central Daejeon city.
Some 5.43 million vehicles were expected to hit the roads on their way back home on Sunday alone, according to the authorities.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Albert Pujols hit his 696th home run, tying Alex Rodriguez for fourth place on the career list, and the St. Louis Cardinals rallied past the Pittsburgh Pirates 7-5 Saturday night.
Pujols trails only Barry Bonds (762), Hank Aaron (755) and Babe Ruth (714) on the all-time homer chart. The 42-year-old Pujols has 22 games left in his 22nd and final season in the big leagues.
“I don’t care who I tied,” Pujols said. “At the end of the day, it’s about tying (the game) for the team and giving them an opportunity to pick up a win. ... It’s pretty special. I think I’m aware of where I am in the history of the game. But at the end of the day, 21 years ago when I make the ballclub, that wasn’t something that I was chasing.
“Twenty-two years later, I don’t think I’m going to change my approach,” he continued. "I think I’m going to let things happen and try to enjoy it. If it happens, it happens. If not, at the end of the day, I think everybody, including myself, are pretty blessed with the career that I have.”
With St. Louis down 3-1 in the sixth, Pujols connected on a first-pitch slider from JT Brubaker. He sent a two-run shot 418 feet into the left-field bleachers at PNC Park, launched with an exit velocity of 111.2 mph.
“I know it’s a historic home run, but it still sucks,” Brubaker said. “I should have walked off that mound giving our team the lead and I didn’t do it. That bothers me.”
Pujols also doubled and singled for the NL Central leaders. His RBI single in the eighth made it 4-all.
“Albert, three knocks. Big homer there,” Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said. “ ... Fouled two pitches off in the top of the zone. He knew he had to make an adjustment to get on top of it. Was able to let it get a little deep, got on top of it for a single. Drove in that run. That’s a pro at bat.”
Nolan Arenado broke the tie with a three-run double with two outs in the ninth off Wil Crowe (5-9).
“You have a guy that is grinding right now," Marmol said. "He’s played a lot of games in a row. Head stays in it, gives us a good at bat there and drives in three runs. That was nice to see.”
Giovanny Gallegos (3-5) pitched a perfect eighth inning for the Cardinals. Ryan Helsley allowed a two-out RBI single from Bryan Reynolds in the ninth before getting Rodolfo Castro to ground out for his 15th save.
Paul Goldschmidt was 0 for 4, dropping his average to .325 to fall behind Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Freddie Freeman (.330) in the NL batting race. His two-out walk loaded the bases in the ninth.
Oneil Cruz put the Pirates ahead 4-3 in the seventh with his 14th homer, driven over the Clemente Wall in right. The 23-year-old rookie singled in the first, extending his hit streak to a career-best seven games. He is 14 for 30 (.467) during the streak.
“He’s a good player,” Pujols said of Cruz. “Obviously, he has a great future ahead of him.”
Pittsburgh took a 3-0 lead on a pair of homers off Jack Flaherty in the first two innings, a solo shot from Castro in the first and a two-run drive from Jack Suwinski in the second. Flaherty went five innings, giving up three runs on six hits.
Brendan Donovan cut the deficit to two with a home run in the Cardinals fifth.
TRAINER’S ROOM
Cardinals: LHP Packy Naughton was recalled from Triple-A Memphis. … RHP James Naile was optioned to Memphis.
Pirates: RHP David Bednar threw a live batting practice on Saturday. The All-Star closer has been on the injured list with lower back tightness since Aug. 3.
UP NEXT
Cardinals LHP José Quintana (5-6, 3.41 ERA) will return to the mound in Pittsburgh on Sunday, going opposite RHP Mitch Keller (5-10, 4.22). Quintana and RHP Chris Stratton were sent to St. Louis on Aug. 1 in a trade that moved RHP Johan Oviedo and INF Malcolm Nuñez to the Pirates. Keller allowed five hits in six shutout innings against the Mets his last time out on Tuesday.

Mitsotakis uses TIF speech to kick off pre-election period
Besides the, many, additional spending measures Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis announced Saturday night in his keynote speech at the Thessaloniki International Fair, he also essentially kicked off the pre-election period.
Mitsotakis made many explicit references to the dilemmas facing the electorate. “We either continue forward or we turn back!” he said, adding “either we give progress a second chance or risk a second disaster!”
The stark dilemmas were accompanied with a warning to the citizens: “it is my duty to warn citizens: none of the things we achieved is a given. And everything can be torn down with a wrong move. But that’s how democracy works. By leaving that decision exclusively in the hands of the people. And the people have seen, have learned and know the path they will choose,” Mitsotakis adeded.
Mitsotakis also made it clear that his agenda cannot be implemented in just one four-year term but has a longer horizon. He explicitely mentioned 2030.
“The normal calendar says that we are entering the final year of our first term in power. The social calendar, however, shows that the needs of the people go beyond four-year terms,” Mitsotakis said.
He became more explicit when he explained that deep-rooted inefficiencies cannot be overcome in a siέτσι εύκολα (εννοώντας σε μια τετραετία). Και κατέληξε πως «το δικό his first-term goals he was now focused what is yet to be done.
Finally, Mitsotakis set out clearly what is at stake in the next election. “We are called to choose between the path of growth and that of regression; that of confidence or self-doubt; of patriotism or national self-consciousness; of economic prosperity for all or stagnation,” he said.
The Prime Minister finally made it personal: do people trust him or his predecessor as Prime Minister and now opposition leader Alexis Tsipras? “Now we know who can manage and overcome crises and who are those that remain sullen spectators…That’s why, when the time comes, we will not only choose a government, but also a Governor.”

During her visits to the Australian turf, Queen Elizabeth II gave a supporting hand to a trainer but grimaced at the touch of a prime minister.
Normally, she was as comfortable in a racing environment, but the 1988 Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Canberra was an exception, according to Bart Cummings, who was on speaking terms with her majesty.
At the time, Cummings had boom three-year-old Beau Zam, who he described as “a superstar who mixed with royalty”.
“Princess Anne was visiting and asked to ride him trackwork. I happily gave her a turn,” Cummings wrote in Bart – My Life. “Her mother got to meet him, too, in the Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Canberra. Her majesty seemed interested in talking with me about racing, but she was distracted.
“One of the more memorable episodes of the day was that Bob Hawke, the prime minister, had a habit of putting his hand on her elbow or arm or back, and her majesty was far from amused.
“Either he didn’t know that you were not meant to touch the Queen or that was just his way around women and he couldn’t help himself.
“Whichever it was, a big scowl came across the Queen’s face as she was trying to talk to somebody or watch races. You didn’t know why she was looking so sour until you looked behind her or to her side, and there was Hawkie with his hand on her again.
“There’s even a photo of me beside Her Majesty watching the race with [wife] Valmae and [owner] Jack Eastgate behind us and the Queen looks like she’s bitten into a lemon. If you look to the side of the picture, there’s a male hand grabbing the Queen’s elbow. Guess who?”
No doubt the 1954 inaugural Queen Elizabeth Stakes, won by outsider Blue Ocean, at Randwick was a more comfortable occasion for her majesty.
Blue Ocean was trained by Harry Darwon - a Kensington personality when the racing suburb had more characters than Runyon’s Broadway - who answered to “Aitch”. When invited to go to the official presentation, Aitch was taken aback.
“So out I goes to meet all the dignitaries,” he related. “They are all standing in a circle. For a second, the thought flashed through my mind, ‘It looks like a two-up game’.”
Aitch had progressed Blue Ocean from a country picnic horse who sired polo ponies as a sideline to victory over top-liners Carioca, Hydrogen and Advocate on the day.
Yes, he started at 66/1, but Aitch gave him a chance to the degree he practised bowing for a week. Thus, when he was presented to her majesty, he appeared elegant and gracious. Sir Walter Raleigh wasn’t in the same class.
However, when in the grove, he bowed to the Duke Of Edinburgh, jockey Arthur Podmore and even the man with the dustbin who follows the horses. He appeared to set a record for holding her hand. “No,” Aitch told me. “I was trembling so much The Queen held my hand to steady me.”
Again, hands played a role in 1960 when the Queen shared the front page of the Sun-Herald. “Queen Waits Calmly” was the headline regarding the pending arrival of her third child, while “Big Crowd Runs Wild”, written by Bill Whittaker, referred to the 50,346 - including this writer - who packed into Harold Park for the Interdominion, won by Caduceus. Sardines were comfortable by comparison.
The hand? Well, a punter punched a hole in a fibro wall to see the race and others followed suit, tearing fibro from wooden framework behind one of the stands. “She’s fine,” Prince Phillip said competing for space. “Very fit indeed”.

Hours after five MPs wrote to Congress Election Authority chief Madhusudan Mistry over transparency in the party’s internal polls, the party tweaked the poll rules. In a reply to the MPs, Mistry said those seeking to file a nomination for the post of Congress president will be able to see the list of the over 9,000 delegates at the AICC's central election authority office from September 20.
"If anyone desires to get nominations from ten supporters from different states, the list of all 9000+ delegates will be available in my office at AICC, Delhi from 20th September (11 AM to 6 PM), before they file their nomination on 24th September," he said.
Five party MPs, including Pradyut Bordoloi, Shashi Tharoor, Manish Tewari, Karti Chidambaram, and Abdul had expressed concerns about transparency and fairness in the Congress President's election that will be held on October 17. The nominations for the poll can be filed from September 24 to 30.
In his joint letter to the MPs, he said, “I note your concern and appreciate your intention of strengthening the party and therefore to have a free and fair and transparent election of the congress president.”
“The first avenue open for any delegate to file a nomination for the congress president election is they can look for the names of the 10 supporters delegates at this date at the Pradesh Congress committee office the name and serial numbers are available in the list the nomination signed by 10 supporters will be sufficient for validity of the nomination,” he said.
Once the nomination is signed and handed over to the Chief Returning Officer, they will get the entire list of the delegates, he said in a letter to the MPs.

"This should resolve the anxiety of anybody about the process of filing their nominations without knowing the names of the delegates. Once the nomination is signed and handed over to the Chief Returning Officer, they will get the entire list of the delegates.
"I hope this satisfies the needs of you and other colleagues who have signed the letter. I express my gratitude to Shashi ji for calling and having a conversation with me on the same today," Mistry also said in his letter.
Expressing contentment, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor took to Twitter and said, “I am pleased that this clarification has come in the form of his constructive reply to our letter (attached). In view of these assurances, I am satisfied. Many will be glad to move on with an election process that in my view will only strengthen the party.”

C.J. Cron homered, Randal Grichuk and Elehuris Montero had two hits apiece, and the Colorado Rockies beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 4-1 in Denver on Saturday night.
Justin Lawrence (3-1) tossed 1 2/3 innings of relief and Daniel Bard got the side out in order in the ninth for his 29th save for the Rockies.
Colorado (61-79) has won four straight and clinched the season series against the Diamondbacks. The teams entered the three-game series 8-8 against each other and the Rockies have won the first two of the series.
Jake McCarthy singled, walked twice and scored the lone run for Arizona (65-73), which had Ketel Marte and manager Torey Lovullo ejected in its fourth straight loss.
The game was scoreless until the Diamondbacks broke through in the fourth inning. With one out, McCarthy, Christian Walker and Marte singled to give Arizona the lead. Rockies starter Jose Urena limited the damage by getting Emmanuel Rivera to ground into an inning-ending double play.
Urena allowed one run on five hits and struck out five in 5 1/3 innings.
Madison Bumgarner cruised through the first five innings before the Rockies came alive. Grichuk led off the sixth with a walk, Yonathan Daza walked and a wild pitch put runners on second and third. Cron then homered to center field, his 28th of the season, to put Colorado in front 3-1.
The Rockies weren't done. Brendan Rodgers doubled and moved to third on Michael Toglia's double off the glove of shortstop Geraldo Perdomo.
One out later, Montero walked to load the bases and Sean Bouchard hit a sacrifice fly to bring home Rodgers.
Bumgarner (6-14) allowed four runs on six hits, walked three and struck out two in six innings.
The Diamondbacks' frustration was apparent in the seventh. Marte argued a first-strike call with home plate umpire Hunter Wendelstedt and was ejected, and Lovullo was also tossed when he came out of the dugout.
Josh Rojas entered the game for Marte and struck out looking.
