PRESTONSBURG, Ky. (AP) — Derrek McIntosh was left homeless twice within weeks — first by floodwaters that destroyed his eastern Kentucky home, then when a fire burned down the house he stayed in with relatives.
Now that he's moved into a temporary travel trailer, McIntosh said he no longer worries where he'll lay his head at night. And the 34-year-old Republican gives the credit for that to a Democrat — Gov. Andy Beshear.
When flooding swept through parts of Appalachia in late July, McIntosh said, the governor moved quickly.
“I think he's doing an awesome job,” McIntosh said.
Beshear's first term in office has been dominated by one deadly crisis after another: the global COVID-19 pandemic, tornadoes that killed scores of people in western Kentucky in December and floodwaters in Appalachia that left dozens more Kentuckians dead. Through it all, Beshear has offered encouragement to victims, pledged to hold officials accountable for the federal response and dived into the details of the recovery process.
“This rebuilding process is going to be one of the most challenging the country has ever seen,” Beshear said during a recent stop in Hazard. “And I think we're up to it. I saw this saying the other day. It was: God saves his toughest challenges for his strongest soldiers.”
If there’s a playbook for a Democratic politician navigating the treacherous politics of a ruby-red state, Beshear may have found it. The 44-year-old governor talks about his Christian faith, his stewardship of the state’s record-setting economy and the resilience of his fellow Kentuckians.
Beshear, who is seeking reelection to his second term next year, typically steers away from partisan politics.
“Every time that we can put aside red or blue, D or R, and just focus on things that are good for our families, are the times that we jump in front of every other state that can’t do that,” the governor said recently at the Kentucky Farm Bureau's annual ham breakfast. “And I’m convinced that our job in state government isn’t to move the state to the right or to the left but to move it forward.”
Beshear's approach has caught the eye of New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, who will chair the Democratic Governors Association in 2023. He said Beshear has an “unlimited ceiling" if the Kentuckian wins another term.
“He’s every bit as good as he seems," Murphy said. “And he’s just an extraordinary leader and, by the way, knows how to get stuff done with the other side of the aisle."
Other Democrats may find the formula hard to duplicate in places that haven't faced the gauntlet of challenges Kentucky has — or if they lack his political pedigree. His father, Steve Beshear, was a popular two-term Kentucky governor from 2007 to 2015.
And while crisis management has marked the younger Beshear as a politician to watch since his election as governor in 2019, Republicans are lining up to challenge him in a state where Democrats have struggled in recent years.
The GOP holds both U.S. Senate seats, five of six congressional seats, every statewide office other than governor and lieutenant governor and supermajorities in the legislature.
“I think his personal image is right side up, but his party’s image is decidedly upside-down,” said Scott Jennings, a Kentucky-based Republican political commentator and former adviser to President George W. Bush.
Following a strategy that catapulted the GOP to dominance in Kentucky, Republican contenders for governor hope to nationalize the race, in part by tying Beshear to the inflationary surge that caused President Joe Biden's approval ratings to sag.
But Beshear's appearances with Biden have come in the aftermath of natural disasters and only served to amplify Beshear’s role as a state-level consoler in chief as he focuses on helping people.
He intends to make his management of the state’s economy a cornerstone of his reelection campaign. During his term, Kentucky has posted record highs for job creation and investments and record low unemployment rates.
Republicans, meanwhile, consistently remind Kentuckians of the restrictions Beshear imposed during the pandemic.
“Folks, just because we lived through a global pandemic doesn’t mean that our rights, our freedoms and liberties should be tossed out the window,” GOP gubernatorial hopeful Ryan Quarles said this summer at the Fancy Farm picnic, the state's top political event.
Republican Attorney General Daniel Cameron, among the Republicans running for governor, led a legal fight against Beshear’s pandemic restrictions on businesses and gatherings, winning before the Kentucky Supreme Court. That cleared the way for the legislature to rein in the governor’s emergency powers.
But as Republican rivals at the picnic slammed his job performance, Beshear was across the state in the mountains, consoling families left homeless by the flooding.
The governor defends his pandemic-related actions, which he says reflected guidance from then-President Donald Trump's coronavirus task force. More importantly, Beshear says, they saved lives.
For all his niceties, Beshear also has shown a fighter's instincts — whether it's on the campaign trail or in skirmishes over legislation.
He vetoed bills putting more restrictions on abortion and banning transgender girls and women from female sports teams, beginning in the sixth grade. Both were political risks in socially conservative Kentucky. Beshear also vetoed bills aimed at launching charter schools, phasing out individual income taxes and tightening rules for public assistance benefits. Republican lawmakers overrode all those vetoes and cite them as evidence that he's out of touch.
“It shows that his beliefs are inconsistent with the beliefs of Kentuckians," said state Auditor Mike Harmon, another GOP officeholder running for governor.
But for some Republican voters, Beshear's handling of epic natural disasters and his empathy for Kentuckians struggling to overcome tragedy matter more.
Timothy Carter, an eastern Kentucky coal miner and diehard Trump supporter, said Beshear has been there for flood victims.
“He’s gotten out and stomped right through the mud just the same as they have,” Carter said. "And when a lot of people see that, that brings a different respect. It’s an earned respect.”
In a region with deep affection for Trump, Carter and several others praised Beshear as they waited recently for their children to be fitted with donated shoes at Jenny Wiley State Resort Park, one of several places Beshear designated as emergency shelters after the tornadoes or flooding.
During another visit there, Beshear comforted Pansy McCoy, who took refuge at the park after floodwaters swamped her home. She's hit a snag in getting the help she needs.
“I just want my home,” she told the governor. “I just want a home.”
“We'll work with you on that, OK?” Beshear said before connecting her with members of his team.
While McCoy expressed her appreciation for the governor, not everyone saw things that way.
Randy Johnson stayed outside the park lodge when the governor spoke to a crowd inside. Johnson said later that he's been in limbo since his home was flooded, living at the park with his wife and grandchild and awaiting federal aid.
“He sure let us down,” Johnson said. “I just don't see nothing getting any better.”
But that wasn't the prevailing view. McIntosh, the Republican who's moved into a temporary travel trailer, said he'll have no problem voting for the governor next year.
“I can’t believe he’s doing as much as he’s doing here," McIntosh said, “trying to help all us eastern Kentuckians.”

NBA Draft Scouting Report: Arkansas’ Ricky Council IV
Ricky Council IV
Guard | Arkansas
Height: 6’6” | Weight: 205 lbs
2023 Draft Age: 21.89
Prospect Profile
A new member of a loaded Arkansas team, Council IV is a junior that recently transferred from Wichita State. He’s coming off a spectacular season in which he earned American Athletic Conference Sixth Man of the Year honors.
Last season as a sophomore on the Shockers, he averaged 12.0 points and 5.4 rebounds per contest off the bench. He only knocked down 30.6% of his triples, which was down from 44.4% as a freshman.
This season, he’ll be going up against much better competition in the SEC. If he rises to the occasion, Council will only be even more of a legitimate prospect in the 2023 NBA Draft. It all comes down to that 3-point shooting and overall offensive efficiency.
He’s got a high release point on his jumper and the mechanics look solid, but Council struggled last season from deep. The 6-foot-6 guard is a crafty finisher in the paint, but plays mostly below the rim. With that in mind, he does have the bounce to finish dunks with power.
Council lacks an elite first step which limits him some, but he still finds ways to generate shots off the dribble. He’s a good positional rebounder and is overall impactful even outside of scoring. Council does need to improve as a passer and facilitator offensively, as his assist numbers are pretty low for a guard.
Read More
He is able to hold his own defensively and is versatile given he’s a bigger guard. This season at Arkansas, Council will get to play quite a bit of wing as he hopes to showcase 3-and-D upside.
Regardless of the limitations, Council should be a second-round steal for an NBA team next summer. He’ll have every opportunity to show what he’s got on an Arkansas squad that has championship potential. He’ll be playing alongside three potential lottery picks in Nick Smith Jr., Jordan Walsh and Anthony Black.
If Council does take the NBA leap after this season, he will be 22 by the start of his rookie season. He wasn’t the biggest recruit coming out of high school, but Council has continuously gotten better and has proven to be a future NBA talent.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — Chaos reigned in the home where Florida school shooter Nikolas Cruz grew up, testimony in his ongoing penalty trial has shown.
He and his half-brother Zachary tormented their adoptive, widowed mother, Lynda. By the time Cruz reached middle school in the early 2010s, the pair took their fists and baseball bats to the walls, leaving gaping holes. They destroyed televisions and carved gashes in furniture, witnesses said.
Zachary may have been two years younger, but he was bigger and stronger and relentlessly picked on his brother — one social worker remembered Zachary climbing atop a counter and stepping in Nikolas’ cereal as he ate.
Lynda Cruz called sheriff’s deputies to the family’s 4,500-square-foot (420-square-meter) home at least two dozen times between 2012 and 2016 to deal with one son, the other or both. Most calls were for fighting, destroying her property, disrespecting her or running away.
“Nikolas was very easily set off and I think Zachary derived some pleasure from pushing Nikolas’ buttons,” testified Frederick Kravitz, one of Cruz’s childhood psychologists. In turn, “they were very good at pushing (their mother’s) buttons.”
Nikolas Cruz, 23, pleaded guilty in October to murdering 17 students and staff members at Parkland’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Feb. 14, 2018. His trial is only to decide whether he is sentenced to death or life without parole. The trial resumes Monday after a week off.
Lead prosecutor Mike Satz’s case was straightforward. He played security videos of the shooting and showed the AR-15-style semiautomatic rifle Cruz used. Teachers and students testified about watching others die. He showed graphic autopsy and crime scene photos and took jurors to the still blood-stained, bullet-pocked classroom building Cruz terrorized. Parents and spouses gave tearful and angry statements about their loss.
In an attempt to counter that, assistant public defender Melisa McNeill and her team have made Cruz’s history their case’s centerpiece, hoping at least one juror will vote for life. A death verdict must be unanimous.
The defense wants to show that from Cruz’s birth to a hard-drinking, crack-smoking Fort Lauderdale prostitute, he never fully received needed help even as he grew increasingly out of control.
And nowhere was that more apparent than in the home Roger and Lynda Cruz built in Parkland, an upscale Fort Lauderdale suburb. They adopted Nikolas at birth in 1998 and, in 2000, Zachary, who had a different birth father.
Lynda Cruz, who turned 50 shortly after adopting Nikolas, was a stay-at-home mom. Roger Cruz, then 61, owned a successful marketing business.
Lynda Cruz “had wanted a child, always wanted a child. So once she got Nikolas, she felt like her family was complete,” friend Trish Davaney-Westerlind testified. “He was a cute little baby. She would go and get him all these sailor outfits. She was just the happiest I ever saw.”
But by preschool, Cruz showed extreme behavior. Neighbors and teachers testified he hit and bit other children and didn’t socialize. He was anxious, fell when he ran and couldn’t use utensils. Nikolas started seeing psychiatrists and psychologists at age 3 and didn’t fully talk or become potty trained until 4.
At 5, just as Cruz entered kindergarten, he witnessed his father suffer a fatal heart attack in the family’s den. That left Lynda Cruz alone in her mid-50s with two sons who would have challenged a much younger couple.
Unemployed, she became paranoid about spending, keeping her air conditioners’ thermostats in the 80s (25 to 30 Celsius) and unplugging unused appliances. One friend said her monthly electric bill was $80, a fraction of what the owner of a large South Florida home typically pays.
She padlocked the refrigerator so her sons couldn’t eat without permission and kept it so poorly stocked neighbors gave her groceries.
Friends gave conflicting testimony over whether Lynda Cruz really was financially strapped or had wealth she didn’t want to spend.
In either case, she had expenses other parents didn’t. Cruz’s mental health treatments weren’t fully covered by insurance. He loved online, often violent video games, but hated losing – that’s what caused him to destroy TVs and damage walls. She sometimes locked his video game counsel in her car as punishment — and Cruz at least once broke a window to get it back.
“She was a little afraid of him,” neighbor Paul Gold testified.
Despite Cruz’s tantrums, Lynda Cruz told teachers and counselors he was gentle and loving, a mama’s boy. Friends testified that wasn’t wholly a facade — Cruz and his mother did have a strong, often affectionate attachment and she favored him over his brother.
Still, Zachary remained popular in the neighborhood while Cruz was the outcast — and not just with children.
Steven Schusler testified that shortly after moving nearby, his landlord called over the Cruz boys and pointed at Nikolas, then about 10.
“He’s the weird one, aren’t you Nicky?” Schusler recalled the woman saying. Cruz ”curled up” and “looked like a snail when you put salt on one.”
But Cruz’s behavior was often strange and sometimes violent. When he was 9, a parent called police after he hit her child in the head with a rock. When his dog died after eating a poisonous toad, he went on a killing spree against the amphibians. At middle school, his outbursts disrupted classes and he plastered his homework with racist slurs, swastikas, obscenities and stick figures having sex or shooting each other.
Lynda Cruz became so overwhelmed in Cruz’s early teens, a social services agency was assigned to help. That’s what brought case manager Tiffany Forrest to the home. She said Lynda Cruz complained Nikolas wouldn’t bathe, so Forrest tried to explain to him the importance of hygiene. Cruz stood up, walked outside and jumped clothed into the pool. He then climbed out.
“I showered,” he told Forrest.
In the coming weeks, Cruz’s attorneys are expected to present testimony about his transfer to a school for students with emotional and behavioral problems, his time at Stoneman Douglas and call his brother to the stand.
Their mother died less than four months before the shooting.

The modder added Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to the computer version of Marvel’s Spider-Man, and all four members of the cult team can be seen in the images shared. This is one of many mods created since Marvel’s Spider-Man was released on PC.
In 2018, Marvel’s Spider-Man appeared on shelves and in digital stores around the world. The game was well received by critics: the PlayStation 4 version scored 87 points on Metacritic. The game has also become a huge hit for Sony and developer Insomniac Games: as of May 2022, more than 33 million copies have been sold worldwide. It was recently ported to PC, becoming Sony’s second largest launch on Steam. As soon as the game appeared on the PC, the modders quickly got down to business, making it even more fun and ridiculous. Some of these mods are related to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
TMNT Mod for Marvel Spider-Man in Action
Earlier this month, a PC mod allowed gamers to play as one of the teenage mutant ninja turtles in Marvel’s Spider-Man. In the original video, players could only play as Donatello with the promise of more characters in the future. In a recent post, Reddit user kaan101xp showed a new set of images showing all the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in Marvel’s Spider-Man doing what they do best. They can be seen on the streets of New York, in the sewers and working inside the building.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were created in 1983 specifically as a parody of superheroes, although their popularity increased dramatically in the late 1980s thanks to the TV show of the same name. Since then, several more animated series have been created, and the characters have also adapted to live action several times. The franchise has also had several video game adaptations, including Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection. Currently, a new AAA Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game is in development, which is due to be released in 2023.
Following the success of Marvel’s Spider-Man, a side game called Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales was released in late 2020. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 was officially announced with a trailer in 2021 and teased Peter Parker and Miles Morales. against Kraven the Hunter and Venom. Currently, it is expected that the game will be exclusive to the PlayStation 5, but it may well appear on the PC, like the previous game. Hopefully, if that happens, players will be able to see Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fight the likes of Venom in the near future.
Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered is available for PC and PS5.

HOUSTON — Two people are dead and another person was shot after two shootings all within several blocks, according to the Houston Police Department.
Both shootings happened Saturday night just hours apart on Liberty Road in northeast Houston.
Police were responding to the first shooting off of 3500 Liberty Road around 8 p.m. when they learned that a woman who was shot had been taken to the hospital where she later died.
Two hours later, as police were investigating the first shooting, they heard multiple gunshots down the street near 3800 Liberty Road. As officers pulled up, they saw a large crowd running from the scene. That's when they discovered one man was shot and killed and another man involved took himself to the hospital, where he is currently stable.
HPD Assistant Chief Yasar Bashir said two people were detained at the scene for questioning and released. Bashir said one person did run from officers which led to a search involving K-9 units and a helicopter, but the person was never found.
Bashir said they don't have a reason to believe the shootings are related at this time, but that they're still investigating.

WASHINGTON: President
Joe Biden marked the 21st anniversary of the September 11 attacks, laying a wreath at the Pentagon in a somber commemoration held under a steady rain.
Sunday's ceremony occurred a little more than a year after Biden ended the long and costly war in Afghanistan that the US and allies launched in response to the terror attacks.
In ending the Afghanistan war, the Democratic president followed through on a campaign pledge to bring home US troops from the country's longest conflict. But the war concluded chaotically in August 2021, when the US-backed Afghan government collapsed in the face of a countrywide
Taliban advance that returned the fundamentalist group to power. A bombing claimed by an Afghanistan-based extremist group killed 170 Afghans and 13 US troops at Kabul's airport, where thousands of desperate Afghans gathered in hopes of escape before the final US cargo planes departed over the Hindu Kush.
White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said Biden in his remarks Sunday will recognize the impact the 2001 attacks had on the US and the world and honor the nearly 3,000 people killed that day when al-Qaida hijackers took control of commercial planes and crashed them into New York’s World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania field.
“I think you’ll hear him talk about how America will stay vigilant to the threat but also look to future threats and challenges and be able to learn to meet those threats and challenges,” Kirby said.
Biden marked the one-year anniversary of the US withdrawal from Afghanistan late last month in low-key fashion. He issued a statement in honor of the 13 US troops killed in the bombing at the Kabul airport and spoke by phone with US veterans assisting ongoing efforts to resettle in the United States Afghans who helped the war effort.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Thursday criticized Biden's handling of the end of the war and noted that the country has spiraled downward under renewed Taliban rule since the US withdrawal.
“Now, one year on from last August’s disaster, the devastating scale of the fallout from President Biden’s decision has come into sharper focus," McConnell said. “Afghanistan has become a global pariah. Its economy has shrunk by nearly a third. Half of its population is now suffering critical levels of food insecurity."
First lady Jill Biden will speak Sunday at the Flight 93 National Memorial Observance in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Vice President
Kamala Harris and her husband will go to New York City for a commemoration ceremony at the National September 11th Memorial.

Multiple Oscar-winning auteur Steven Spielberg's The Fabelmans earned a roaring standing ovation at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) on Saturday, as the crowd of movie lovers cheered loudly for the producer-director making his first appearance at the gathering, according to the reports. "I'm really glad we came to Toronto," a visibly moved Spielberg said after taking the stage as the credits rolled. The director said he was inspired by the Covid pandemic to tell his most personal story yet, a look at his early filmmaking efforts, his childhood in Arizona and Northern California, and the dissolution of his family.
"As things got worse and worse, I felt that if I was going to leave anything behind, what was the thing that I really need to resolve and unpack about my mom, my dad," Spielberg said.
He reassured the crowd at TIFF that despite having made peace with his past, 'The Fabelmans' will not serve as his farewell to movies. "This is not because I'm going to retire and this is my swan song," he said. "Don't believe any of that."
The film started about 15 minutes late, a small miracle given the crush of audience members waiting outside the Princess of Wales Theatre, because the premiere of 'Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery', starring Daniel Craig, had bled into the launch of 'The Fabelmans'.
The Jurassic Park director estimated before the screening that The Fabelmans is his first to officially play in the selection of a film festival in his 34-picture career, apparently forgetting that Bridge of Spies only recently had its world debut there. Making this movie seemed to sting more deeply.

The ensemble cast of The Fabelmans includes Jeannie Berlin, Julia Butters, Robin Bartlett, Keeley Karsten, and David Lynch, who make a brief appearance but are not revealed here. Producing the movie are Spielberg, Tony Kushner, and Kristie Macosko Krieger. The Fablemans is backed by Universal Pictures, which is set to release the film in theatres on November 11.

Investors bid Sarepta Therapeutics (NASDAQ:SRPT) up US$793m despite increasing losses YoY, taking five-year CAGR to 21%
When you buy shares in a company, it's worth keeping in mind the possibility that it could fail, and you could lose your money. But on the bright side, you can make far more than 100% on a really good stock. Long term Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:SRPT) shareholders would be well aware of this, since the stock is up 155% in five years. It's also good to see the share price up 71% over the last quarter.
After a strong gain in the past week, it's worth seeing if longer term returns have been driven by improving fundamentals.
See our latest analysis for Sarepta Therapeutics
Because Sarepta Therapeutics made a loss in the last twelve months, we think the market is probably more focussed on revenue and revenue growth, at least for now. Shareholders of unprofitable companies usually expect strong revenue growth. That's because it's hard to be confident a company will be sustainable if revenue growth is negligible, and it never makes a profit.
In the last 5 years Sarepta Therapeutics saw its revenue grow at 33% per year. Even measured against other revenue-focussed companies, that's a good result. So it's not entirely surprising that the share price reflected this performance by increasing at a rate of 21% per year, in that time. So it seems likely that buyers have paid attention to the strong revenue growth. Sarepta Therapeutics seems like a high growth stock - so growth investors might want to add it to their watchlist.
The company's revenue and earnings (over time) are depicted in the image below (click to see the exact numbers).
It's good to see that there was some significant insider buying in the last three months. That's a positive. On the other hand, we think the revenue and earnings trends are much more meaningful measures of the business. If you are thinking of buying or selling Sarepta Therapeutics stock, you should check out this free report showing analyst profit forecasts.
A Different Perspective
It's nice to see that Sarepta Therapeutics shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 47% over the last year. That's better than the annualised return of 21% over half a decade, implying that the company is doing better recently. In the best case scenario, this may hint at some real business momentum, implying that now could be a great time to delve deeper. I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too. For instance, we've identified 1 warning sign for Sarepta Therapeutics that you should be aware of.
Sarepta Therapeutics is not the only stock insiders are buying. So take a peek at this free list of growing companies with insider buying.

Updated September 11, 2022 at 9:17 AM ET
NEW YORK — Americans remembered 9/11 on Sunday with readings of victims' names, volunteer work and other tributes 21 years after the deadliest terror attack on U.S. soil.
A tolling bell and a moment of silence began the commemoration at ground zero in New York, where the World Trade Center's twin towers were destroyed by the hijacked-plane attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Victims' relatives and dignitaries also convened at the two other attack sites, the Pentagon and a field in Pennsylvania.
Other communities around the country are marking the day with candlelight vigils, interfaith services and other commemorations. Some Americans are joining in volunteer projects on a day that is federally recognized as both Patriot Day and a National Day of Service and Remembrance.
The observances follow a fraught milestone anniversary last year. It came weeks after the chaotic and humbling end of the Afghanistan war that the U.S. launched in response to the attacks.
But if this Sept. 11 may be less of an inflection point, it remains a point for reflection on the attack that killed nearly 3,000 people, spurred a U.S. "war on terror" worldwide and reconfigured national security policy.
It also stirred — for a time — a sense of national pride and unity for many, while subjecting Muslim Americans to years of suspicion and bigotry and engendering debate over the balance between safety and civil liberties. In ways both subtle and plain, the aftermath of 9/11 ripples through American politics and public life to this day.
And the attacks have cast a long shadow into the personal lives of thousands of people who survived, responded or lost loved ones, friends and colleagues.
More than 70 of Sekou Siby's co-workers perished at Windows on the World, the restaurant atop the trade center's north tower. Siby had been scheduled to work that morning until another cook asked him to switch shifts.
Siby never took a restaurant job again; it would have brought back too many memories. The Ivorian immigrant wrestled with how to comprehend such horror in a country where he'd come looking for a better life.
He found it difficult to form the type of close, family-like friendships he and his Windows on the World co-workers had shared. It was too painful, he had learned, to become attached to people when "you have no control over what's going to happen to them next."
"Every 9/11 is a reminder of what I lost that I can never recover," says Siby, who is now president and CEO of ROC United. The restaurant workers' advocacy group evolved from a relief center for Windows on the World workers who lost their jobs when the twin towers fell.
On Sunday, President Joe Biden plans to speak and lay a wreath at the Pentagon, while first lady Jill Biden is scheduled to speak in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, where one of the hijacked planes went down after passengers and crew members tried to storm the cockpit as the hijackers headed for Washington. Al-Qaida conspirators had seized control of the jets to use them as passenger-filled missiles.
Vice President Kamala Harris and husband Doug Emhoff joined the observance at the National Sept. 11 Memorial in New York, but by tradition, no political figures speak at the ground zero ceremony. It centers instead on victims' relatives reading aloud the names of the dead.
Readers often add personal remarks that form an alloy of American sentiments about Sept. 11 — grief, anger, toughness, appreciation for first responders and the military, appeals to patriotism, hopes for peace, occasional political barbs, and a poignant accounting of the graduations, weddings, births and daily lives that victims have missed.
Some relatives also lament that a nation which came together — to some extent — after the attacks has since splintered apart. So much so that federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies, which were reshaped to focus on international terrorism after 9/11, now see the threat of domestic violent extremism as equally urgent.

COLOMBO, Sri Lanka — The United States, on Saturday, announced $40 million in aid to buy fertilizer and other key agricultural inputs in time for the next cultivation season in crisis-hit Sri Lanka.
USAID Administrator Samantha Power, who is visiting Sri Lanka, made the announcement after she met farmer representatives in Ja-Ela outside the capital, Colombo. She said the money will be in addition to the $6 million announced earlier to assist low income farmers.
Sri Lanka is facing its worst economic crisis and acute shortages of essentials like food, fuel and medicines because of a lack of foreign currency to pay for the imports. Agricultural yields dropped by more than half for the past two cultivation seasons because authorities had banned the imports of chemical fertilizers ostensibly to promote organic farming.
“The farmers that I just met with described enormous challenges that the economic crisis has placed on them and their families and the whole community. They described phenomena that were unimaginable two, three years ago,” Power told reporters.
She said that according to the World Food Program, more than 6 million people — nearly 30% of Sri Lanka’s population — are currently facing food insecurity and require humanitarian assistance.
Power said the money will help 1 million farmers in time for the next season, starting soon.
Sri Lanka has reached a preliminary agreement with the International Monetary Fund for a $2.9 billion aid package, over four years. However, the program hinges on debt restructuring assurances from creditors after the country announced that it is suspending repayment of its foreign loans.
Sri Lanka’s total foreign debt amounts to more than $ 51 billion of which $28 billion must be repaid, by 2027.

The Toronto Blue Jays will aim to wrap up a near-perfect road trip with a sweep of the Texas Rangers on Sunday afternoon at Globe Life Field.
The pregame narrative: With an 8-1 record on this three-city road trip so far, life is already pretty good for Toronto. But sweeping Martin Perez and the Rangers today would make it an even happier flight home.
Check out our Blue Jays vs. Rangers picks for September 11.
Odds as of 9:57 a.m. on 09/11/2022.
Blue Jays vs. Rangers picks
Best bet: Blue Jays ML (-120)
For now, and maybe for the final few weeks of the season, the Blue Jays are ditching the customary five-starter rotation. They have four trustworthy starters, plus a bullpen that has shown in recent weeks it can handle a hefty workload.
So on Sunday, we’ll see Trevor Richards open for the second consecutive rotation turn. The remainder of a fairly well-rested bullpen will take it from there, with only Tim Mayza and Adam Cimber having pitched on consecutive days to start this series.
As is the very essence of a bullpen, Toronto’s relief corps hasn’t always been sharp in 2022. But its season-long ranks in ERA (3.71, 12th in MLB) and K/9 (8.91, 16th) have been looking up this month.
The pitching matchup appears to favour Perez (10-6, 2.82 ERA) and the Rangers. But based on how the Blue Jays’ relievers have fared this month, the gap may not be as wide as you think.
Also, we certainly have more faith in Toronto’s offence compared to Texas, and the Blue Jays’ history against Perez offers one more reason to make this pick.
Key stat: Toronto’s current roster has a .312 batting average and a .484 slugging percentage in 103 plate appearances against Perez, per Baseball Savant.
Quick picks
Perez under 4.5 Ks (-108): When Perez faced the Blue Jays in June last year, he didn’t strike anybody out in a disastrous start (1.1 innings, five runs). The former Red Sox lefty has seen the Blue Jays many times, and his 14.2% K-rate against the current lineup makes him well worth a fade on this line.
Toronto also has the second-lowest K-rate in the majors against lefties this season (18.5%).
Most hits - Blue Jays (-109): While the Blue Jays are facing a familiar foe, the Rangers will likely see a long line of relievers they know little about. It’ll be tougher for Texas to establish a rhythm on offence, which should help the Blue Jays in this market.
Plus, Toronto has a .312 BA against Perez, as previously mentioned. And the Jays’ season-long batting average (.262, second in MLB) is far better than the Rangers (.242, 16th).

Ireland great Paul McGrath describes Arsenal legend Liam Brady as the best teammate he ever played with
REPUBLIC OF IRELAND legend Paul McGrath has revealed the identity of the best teammate with whom he ever played.
The 62-year-old former defender won 83 caps for the Boys in Green and is fondly remembered as one of the country's finest players.
The centre-back titan held an Instagram Q&A for his followers, and was asked a variety of different questions on a variety of different topics.
Amongst the many queries was whom he considered to be his most skilled teammate from his international career.
The ex-Man Utd and Aston Villa man did not miss a beat, as he singled out fellow Ireland great Liam Brady for that distinction.
Brady, who won an FA Cup and UEFA Cup Winners' Cup for Arsenal and two Serie A titles for Juventus, played 72 times for Ireland between 1978 and 1990.
Such was the esteem in which McGrath held Brady that, when he earned his first call up, the most exciting prospect was meeting the Dubliner.
He told The Irish Sun last December: "There was David O'Leary, Mark Lawrenson, Kevin [Moran], Mick McCarthy, and I was trying to be a centre half. I had all these people ahead of me, so when the call came I'm thinking, ‘where the hell am I going to play, they have enough people to play in the position that I'm supposed to be good at, so why would you even bring me in’.
“But the thrill for me was just that I was going to bump into Liam Brady and be able to talk to him and stuff like that.”
Brady spent two seasons in Turin with Juventus, and left an indelible mark on the Italian giants.
Most read in Football
He played a historic role in the 1981/82 league winning side, when he scored a penalty in the win over Catanzaro that sealed the Scudetto for the Old Lady.
It was their 20th league title, and while they have since won 16 more, it still retains a precious part in the club's history.
So much so that, 40 years later, Brady returned to Juventus to donate the match ball from that game to the club's museum last month.
During the visit, he met with club director Paolo Garimberti, as well as current goalkeeper , and former Arsenal man, Wojciech Szczęsny.
Brady is also something of a trend-setter, as his success in Italy foreshadowed an influx of Irish youngster playing in the country four decades later.
Festy Ebosele, James Abankwah (both Udinese), Cathal Heffernan (AC Milan), Kevin Zefi (Inter Milan) Aaron Connolly (Venezia), John Ryan (Sassuolo), and Liam Kerrigan (Como) are all plying their trade in the Italian tiers.

A San Antonio-based consultant offered the Killeen City Council a look at the city’s homelessness situation Tuesday, providing a compilation of facts, challenges and solutions.
Most of the answers Dr. Robert G. Marbut Jr. tossed out were common sense, others were highly idealistic.
But while the presentation shed some light on the city’s homeless problem, it generally lacked specifics.
Maybe that’s partly because the discussion was also geared toward Bell County’s other major city, Temple.
In fact, Marbut’s 16-page PowerPoint presentation featured a cover page labeled “Temple City Council Preliminary Data Report ... August 4, 2022.”
So in essence, Killeen was getting a month-old, recycled presentation.
Considering the city paid $50,000 for the consultant’s services — an amount Temple matched, by the way, through an interlocal agreement — the least Marbut could have done was change out the cover page.
But that’s just nitpicking.
The bigger issue is that the report, titled “Successful and Proven Real World Solutions to Reduce Homelessness,” offered little in the way of actual, detailed solutions.
His five “keys to success” cited author Peter Drucker and were based on lofty ideals, such as understanding the exact problem, improving the service delivery system and changing the community culture from “enabling” to “engaging.”
On that last count, Marbut advised ending handouts to people asking for money at intersections. He described that as enabling behavior that will perpetuate problems of alcohol, meth and prostitution.
He also said entities and organizations should stop giving homeless people tents, sleeping bags, or guides to services in the county.
However, without going into any details about what positive alternative actions can be taken, his advice came across as lacking in compassion, like telling people to just stop feeding stray cats that show up on their porch or patio.
The problem is, the people at the city’s intersections are not a true reflection of the homeless problem — and some may not even be homeless. More than a few of the people holding the cardboard signs at busy corners have been in the same spot for weeks on end and appear to be wearing clean clothes. Some have been observed getting on a bus or walking to their car after putting in several hours on the corner.
The real homeless in Killeen can be found pushing shopping carts loaded with meager possessions, huddled under viaducts at night or living in tents by local creeks. Many others are largely hidden from public view. They are seldom seen panhandling on busy street corners.
Marbut has more than 30 years of experience dealing with the problem of homelessness, also serving in three presidential administrations, including as executive director of the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness under President Donald Trump.
Still, it’s fair to ask how much time Marbut spent on the streets of Killeen — or Temple for that matter — getting a true feel for the city’s homeless situation before compiling this report.
Where were the experts to provide the council with a boots-on-the-ground assessment of the homeless population’s specific needs and challenges — such as Officer Kyle Moore, Killeen Police Department’s special officer for homeless issues, or representatives of Killeen’s downtown homeless shelter, Friends in Crisis?
Granted, the study was designed to be a preliminary data report, and some of the data is enlightening.
Marbut shared some interesting information with the council regarding the demographics of Killeen’s homeless population, in comparison to the homeless population in Temple and to the county as a whole. He also provided solid data about the length of time Killeen’s homeless residents have experienced that condition, as well as what percentage are “homegrown” as opposed to “out-of-towners.”
Additionally, Marbut pointed to a high transient rate for the city and a high level of chronic homelessness — both important to know when crafting solutions to the city’s problem.
Marbut was pretty direct in calling out Fort Hood as the main source of homelessness in Killeen. “That’s your number one problem,” he told the council.
He cited statistics that the Army post “outplaces” 10,000 people each year, and only about 2,300 are hitting the VA system. The result, he said, is about 150 new people are experiencing homelessness in Killeen every year that Fort Hood is here — a rather questionable assertion.
However, his data is a bit confusing on this point. His study shows that 18.8% of homeless Killeen residents are veterans — lower than Temple, with 23.9%, and Bell County as a whole, with 21.3%.
In extrapolating Killeen’s numbers, Marbut predicted that the city’s homeless count would quadruple in nine years unless the city makes significant changes.
Unfortunately, the city has some major stumbling blocks to enacting those changes, Marbut said.
One is that there is no formal system of coordination between entities and agencies for addressing the homelessness situation. Marbut also noted that Bell County lacks both the volume and inventory of needed services to serve the homeless population. He also pointed to a “thin track record” of successes for the current system.
These are all legitimate critiques.
However, without providing a detailed road map of how Killeen should proceed to a better, more integrated system of dealing with the homeless challenge, the information offered is of little substantive value.
In short, Killeen’s leaders don’t just need data; they need direction.
Marbut told council members he will be returning in about 70 days to provide more information regarding the study.
Hopefully, that new report will identify agencies that can offer and improve their services to the area’s homeless, how to stand up new organizations to fill in any gaps that currently exist, and ways to integrate and coordinate the delivery of services in the city and county.
Certainly, addressing the issue of homelessness is a necessary and worthwhile endeavor.
As Marbut rightly pointed out in his presentation, not only does homelessness impact the individuals and families who experience it, but it also creates a drain on local resources, ties up the justice system, taxes hospital emergency rooms and suppresses economic development.
If Marbut is correct in his analysis regarding the exponential growth of the area’s homeless population, these are costs — both human and economic — that Killeen, Temple and the county simply cannot afford.
However, there must be a compassionate way to deal with the challenge while transitioning to a system that effectively addresses this multifaceted issue.
Hopefully, Marbut will bring answers to these questions, among others, when he returns to Killeen in a few months with his updated report.
And a new cover sheet might not hurt, either.

How to make the best pumpkin spice cake
If you’ve got a craving for pumpkin spice cake, there’s no need to spend top dollar at a gourmet bakery to enjoy a slice. With the right baking tools and ingredients, it’s easy to whip up one in your own kitchen.
Pumpkin spice cake recipes range from sweet quick breads to layer cakes and luscious cheesecakes. Whichever type you choose to bake, a rich and flavorful pumpkin spice cake always seems to hit the spot with a hot cup of tea or coffee.
What you need to know about making pumpkin spice cake
Popular types of pumpkin spice cake
Pumpkin spice cake is a broad category. Many cake recipes, such as a basic spice cake, can be adapted to pumpkin spice varieties with the right ingredients. The most common iterations include quick breads, cheesecakes, frosted cakes, layer cakes and sponge cakes.
Baking from scratch vs. mixes
There’s a lot to love about baking a pumpkin spice cake from scratch. Bakers have the opportunity to tweak recipes, such as using egg substitutes or adding a jigger of rum. They also might add other baking spices to achieve a specific flavor profile. However, baking from scratch is time-consuming and unless you are an experienced baker, if you don’t follow a recipe carefully, the cake may not turn out well.
Many people are partial to using a pumpkin spice cake mix, which includes most of the recipe’s dry ingredients. You can prepare some of these cakes in as little as 10 minutes before they go into the oven. These mixes are cost-effective if you’re not prepared to invest in a wealth of pumpkin spice products. Unfortunately, there aren’t too many mixes available, so you may find yourself using spice cake mix and pumpkin purée instead.
Fresh vs. canned pumpkin
If you’d like to use fresh pumpkin for a pumpkin spice cake, be prepared to spend extra time roasting and pureeing it. Most people use sugar pumpkins for baking because they’re sweet and have rich, pulpy textures. One of the drawbacks of fresh pumpkins, however, is that they may be difficult to find off-season.
Canned or puréed pumpkin is ideal if you want to cut down on preparation time. Because it’s shelf stable, you can stock up on canned pumpkin if you’d like to bake pumpkin spice cake throughout the year. However, read the ingredients in canned pumpkin carefully; you may find that some varieties actually contain other types of squash.

Rabbi Dayan was reviewing email responses he had received. One was about the article “Ring on Credit,” in which discussed whether a wedding ring bought with a credit card was valid for kiddushin. It concluded that according to many authorities, the kiddushin are valid even mid’Oraysa, biblical law, for various reasons.
The article mentioned that according to some authorities, even if the ring was acquired through a Rabbinic kinyan, the kiddushin is valid mid’Oraysa, based on the monetary authority of the Sages to revoke or establish ownership – hefker beis din hefker.
As the article did not distinguish between a Jewish-owned store and one owned by a gentile, a reader posed the question: “How can hefker beis din apply when the ring is bought from a gentile?”
“That is an interesting point,” Rabbi Dayan said to himself. “The Gemara (Gittin 36b) derives the monetary authority of beis din or communal leaders from verses in Ezra and Yehoshua. The poskim understand this to be a biblical authorization (see Rashba 1:775; 7:256), seemingly based on beis din’s authority to adjudicate or impose enactments. However, a gentile presumably is not subservient to their authority.”
In truth, the article did not explicitly state that hefker beis din applies also to a ring purchased in a store owned by a gentile. Most Rishonim maintain that meshichah (taking physically) is a valid form of kinyan when purchasing from a gentile, on both the biblical and rabbinic levels. Thus, when the chosson takes the ring home from the store, he acquires it fully, without need for hefker beis din (see Pischei Choshen, Kinyanim 12:6-7[10]).
Nonetheless, the fascinating question remains to be clarified:
Does the authority of hefker beis din hefker apply to assets of a gentile? Are there cases in which this rule is used?
“The Sages instituted (Kiddushin 17b) that a Jewish convert inherits his share in the estate of his gentile father, even though he is no longer halachically considered his son, and the remaining gentile brothers are the biblical inheritors,” replied Rabbi Dayan. “Some base this institution on hefker beis din. Thus we seemingly see the concept applied to assets of a gentile” (C.M. 283:1).
“Divrei Yirmiyahu (Hil. Avodah Zarah 7:5) questions this, and writes that, indeed, gentiles are not subject to the monetary authority or enactments of the Sages. He explains, instead, that the gentile brothers withdraw from the convert’s share on their own initiative, since according to civil law he continues to inherit from his gentile father.
“Similarly, Sho’el Umeishiv (1:1:124) writes that although the Sages granted the right to erect a sukkah in public property, in places where gentiles live and have a share it is not allowed, since the Sages cannot grant away their rights.
“However, Sedeh Chemed (maareches hei #59, s.v. v’hayah) writes that since beis din’s authority through hefker beis din is biblical and they can revoke Jewish ownership – certainly they can revoke gentile ownership as well.
“We further find (Gittin 14a) that the Sages instituted “maamad sheloshtan,” to enable verbal transfer of a loan from the lender to a third party, when the lender, borrower and third-party stand together. Rashi (ibid.) bases this institution on hefker beis din hefker.
“Tosafos (Gittin 12b, s.v. b’maamad) writes – in the case of a gentile lender and a Jewish borrower and third party – that if the Sages instituted to transfer the loan from a Jewish lender to a third party, certainly from a gentile lender. This also implies that hekfer beis din hefker applies to assets of a gentile.
“Dvar Avraham (1:1) maintains that hefker beis din is based on beis din’s communal authority (srara umemshalah), not their judicial authority. Thus, he adopts a middle position: When Jews have political authority, hefker beis din applies also to gentiles, but not when they are bereft of political authority.”
(See Talmudic Encyclopedia, vol. X, p. 110; Kovetz Yesodos v’Chakiros, “Hefker Beis Din Hefker.“)
Verdict: Some sources indicate that hefker beis din hefker applies also to a gentile’s assets; some maintain otherwise.

BERLIN (AP) — Ukraine’s run at EuroBasket is over.
A.J. Slaughter scored 24 points, Mateusz Ponitka added 22 and Poland ousted Ukraine from the European championships with a 94-86 victory on Sunday.
Aleksander Balcerowski scored 14 and Michal Sokolowski had 13 for Poland, which finished the game on a 20-10 run and now will face Luka Doncic and defending EuroBasket champion Slovenia in a quarterfinal game on Wednesday.
And with that, the summer schedule for Ukraine’s national team came to a sudden end. The team played and trained in several countries around Europe throughout the summer but couldn’t gather in its own because of the ongoing war that was prompted by Russia’s invasion in February.
Games have been aired throughout Ukraine during EuroBasket, and players said they know their run in the tournament lifted some spirits.
“I hope it inspires and helps them a lot, just to get their thoughts off the war a little bit and just watch us play,” Svi Mykhailiuk said. “Obviously, today was not a great example of us playing, but this whole time, we did our best. I hope they enjoyed it. Obviously, it’s tough for everybody because all the guys’ families are still there and it’s tough having to be here. But I appreciate everyone being here. I appreciate everyone fighting.”
Vyacheslav Bobrov led Ukraine with 15 points. Artem Pustovyi and Issuf Sanon scored 13 apiece, Mykhailiuk had 12 and Ivan Tkachenko finished with 10.
Neither team ever led by more than nine in a game that featured 12 lead changes and 11 ties.
“It was tough, but we did what we did,” Mykhailiuk said. “I think we did more than everybody expected us to do.”

Making the American Dream of home ownership possible
A program organized more than 40 years ago by local churches in East Brooklyn and the Industrial Areas Foundation to build a community within a destitute neighborhood – where no one would wish to drive through, let alone live – has since enabled first-time homeowners to build equity, and hope for the future, as the homes have become, literally, the foundation of community development. And the forces behind the Nehemiah housing project have never stopped, expanding to cities around the nation, where they have built 6,500 homes. "Sunday Morning" senior contributor Ted Koppel reports.

Report: More details on Tom Brady's 11-day hiatus, plans after 2022 originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
Tom Brady will embark on his 23rd NFL season Sunday night in Dallas -- but not after a rather tumultuous offseason.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback briefly retired at the beginning of February before announcing in mid-March he'd return for his age-45 season. Brady's decision to return reportedly led to tension with his wife, Gisele Bundchen, and speculation heightened when Brady took an unprecedented, 11-day hiatus from the Bucs in the middle of the preseason.
So, what was Brady actually up to during his absence?
The veteran QB spent "the bulk" of those 11 days "in the Bahamas at a private resort with his family," NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported Sunday morning. Per Rapoport, Brady was honoring a "mid-retirement promise" to Gisele that he'd vacation with her and their family in August for the first time in their relationship.
Brady didn't have any football conversations with the Bucs during his vacation, Rapoport reports.
Brady has tried balance football and family in recent years, skipping minicamp and OTAs in his final two seasons with the New England Patriots to spend more time with his family and leaving the Bucs for nearly two weeks this summer.
Sports
Patriots, Red Sox, Bruins, Celtics and more
This might be the final year of that balancing act, however: The 2022 season is expected to be Brady's last in the NFL, Rapoport reported, citing "sources with knowledge of his thinking."
While one source told Rapoport that Brady could always change his mind if he falls short of an eighth Super Bowl title this season, Brady did have a stated goal of playing until age 45, so this would be his NFL final box to check.
Brady also has a cushy broadcasting gig with FOX waiting for him in retirement, and considering he nearly pulled the plug on his playing career earlier this year, it would make sense that this season is his last.

WILMINGTON, Del.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 11, 2022--
Updated results from the pivotal ADAURA Phase III trial showed that AstraZeneca’s TAGRISSO ® (osimertinib) demonstrated a sustained, clinically meaningful improvement in disease-free survival (DFS) compared to placebo in the adjuvant treatment of patients with early-stage (IB, II and IIIA) epidermal growth factor receptor-mutated (EGFRm) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after complete tumor resection with curative intent.
These late-breaking results will be presented today at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2022 in Paris (abstract #LBA47).
With an additional two years of follow-up from the 2020 readout, allowing all patients the opportunity to complete three years of adjuvant treatment, TAGRISSO reduced the risk of disease recurrence or death by 77% (based on a hazard ratio [HR] of 0.23; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.18-0.30) in the primary analysis population (Stages II-IIIA) and by 73% (HR 0.27; 95% CI 0.21-0.34) in the overall trial population (Stages IB-IIIA). A median DFS of nearly five and a half years (65.8 months) was seen in both the primary and overall populations treated with TAGRISSO , compared to 21.9 and 28.1 months in the primary and overall populations, respectively, treated with placebo.
While up to 30% of all patients with NSCLC may be diagnosed early enough to have surgery with curative intent, recurrence is still common in early-stage disease. 1,2 Historically, approximately half of patients diagnosed in Stages I-II, and three quarters of patients diagnosed in Stage III, have experienced recurrence within five years of resection. 3,4
Results from an additional, prespecified exploratory analysis showed TAGRISSO reduced the risk of central nervous system (CNS) disease recurrence by 76% in patients with Stage II-IIIA disease (HR: 0.24; 95% CI 0.14-0.42). At four years, 90% of patients in the TAGRISSO arm were disease-free in the brain and spinal cord (95% CI 85-94%) compared to 75% of patients in the placebo arm (95% CI 67-81%). CNS disease recurrence refers to the spread of tumors to the brain or spinal cord, a frequent complication of EGFRm NSCLC associated with an especially poor prognosis.
Masahiro Tsuboi, MD, PhD, Chief and Director, Department of Thoracic Surgery & Oncology, National Cancer Center Hospital East, Japan, and principal investigator in the ADAURA trial, said: “The updated ADAURA results show us that adjuvant osimertinib not only continues to strikingly prolong the time patients with early-stage EGFR-mutated lung cancer are living cancer-free after surgery, but also continues to reduce the risk of tumors recurring in the central nervous system over time. These results reinforce adjuvant osimertinib as a standard-of-care treatment for these early-stage lung cancer patients who previously had no targeted treatment options after surgery, and who otherwise face high rates of disease recurrence.”
Susan Galbraith, Executive Vice President, Oncology R&D, AstraZeneca said: “It is remarkable that just two years ago, patients with early-stage EGFR-mutated lung cancer had no targeted treatment options after surgery. Now, around the world, patients have access to TAGRISSO and its added benefit of protecting the brain and spinal cord. We look forward to mature overall survival results for ADAURA in due time, but our research and commitment to early-stage lung cancer patients continue through our broader TAGRISSO program, which is investigating a prolonged duration of post-surgery treatment and the potential role of adjuvant TAGRISSO in even earlier stages of disease.”
Summary of efficacy results i:
The safety and tolerability of TAGRISSO in this trial were consistent with its established profile. No new safety concerns were reported with an extended treatment duration. Adverse events at Grade 3 or higher from all causes occurred in 23% of patients in the TAGRISSO arm versus 14% in the placebo arm.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
- There are no contraindications for TAGRISSO
- Interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pneumonitis occurred in 3.7% of the 1479 TAGRISSO-treated patients; 0.3% of cases were fatal. Withhold TAGRISSO and promptly investigate for ILD in patients who present with worsening of respiratory symptoms which may be indicative of ILD (eg, dyspnea, cough and fever). Permanently discontinue TAGRISSO if ILD is confirmed
- Heart rate-corrected QT (QTc) interval prolongation occurred in TAGRISSO-treated patients. Of the 1479 TAGRISSO-treated patients in clinical trials, 0.8% were found to have a QTc >500 msec, and 3.1% of patients had an increase from baseline QTc >60 msec. No QTc-related arrhythmias were reported. Conduct periodic monitoring with ECGs and electrolytes in patients with congenital long QTc syndrome, congestive heart failure, electrolyte abnormalities, or those who are taking medications known to prolong the QTc interval. Permanently discontinue TAGRISSO in patients who develop QTc interval prolongation with signs/symptoms of life-threatening arrhythmia
- Cardiomyopathy occurred in 3% of the 1479 TAGRISSO-treated patients; 0.1% of cardiomyopathy cases were fatal. A decline in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥10% from baseline and to <50% LVEF occurred in 3.2% of 1233 patients who had baseline and at least one follow-up LVEF assessment. In the ADAURA study, 1.5% (5/325) of TAGRISSO-treated patients experienced LVEF decreases ≥10% from baseline and a drop to <50%. Conduct cardiac monitoring, including assessment of LVEF at baseline and during treatment, in patients with cardiac risk factors. Assess LVEF in patients who develop relevant cardiac signs or symptoms during treatment. For symptomatic congestive heart failure, permanently discontinue TAGRISSO
- Keratitis was reported in 0.7% of 1479 patients treated with TAGRISSO in clinical trials. Promptly refer patients with signs and symptoms suggestive of keratitis (such as eye inflammation, lacrimation, light sensitivity, blurred vision, eye pain and/or red eye) to an ophthalmologist
- Postmarketing cases consistent with Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and erythema multiforme major (EMM) have been reported in patients receiving TAGRISSO. Withhold TAGRISSO if SJS or EMM is suspected and permanently discontinue if confirmed
- Postmarketing cases of cutaneous vasculitis including leukocytoclastic vasculitis, urticarial vasculitis, and IgA vasculitis have been reported in patients receiving TAGRISSO. Withhold TAGRISSO if cutaneous vasculitis is suspected, evaluate for systemic involvement, and consider dermatology consultation. If no other etiology can be identified, consider permanent discontinuation of TAGRISSO based on severity
- Verify pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating TAGRISSO. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with TAGRISSO and for 6 weeks after the final dose. Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception for 4 months after the final dose
- Most common (≥20%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, were leukopenia, lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia, diarrhea, anemia, rash, musculoskeletal pain, nail toxicity, neutropenia, dry skin, stomatitis, fatigue, and cough

Notes
Lung cancer
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among both men and women, accounting for about one-fifth of all cancer deaths. 5 Lung cancer is broadly split into NSCLC and small cell lung cancer, with 80-85% classified as NSCLC. 6 The majority of all NSCLC patients are diagnosed with advanced disease while approximately 25-30% present with resectable disease at diagnosis. 1,2
Among patients with resectable tumors (Stage IB-IIIA), the majority of patients eventually develop recurrence despite complete tumor resection and adjuvant chemotherapy. 3 In the absence of organized screening efforts, early-stage lung cancer diagnoses are often only made when the cancer is found on imaging for an unrelated condition. 7,8
Approximately 10-15% of NSCLC patients in the US and Europe, and 30-40% of patients in Asia have EGFRm NSCLC. 9-11 These patients are particularly sensitive to treatment with an EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) which block the cell-signaling pathways that drive the growth of tumor cells. 12
ADAURA
ADAURA is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, global Phase III trial in the adjuvant treatment of 682 patients with Stage IB, II, IIIA EGFRm NSCLC following complete tumor resection and, at physicians’ and patients’ discretion, adjuvant chemotherapy. Patients were treated with TAGRISSO 80mg once-daily oral tablets or placebo for three years or until disease recurrence.
The trial enrolled in more than 200 centers across more than 20 countries, including the US, in Europe, South America, Asia and the Middle East. The primary endpoint was DFS in Stage II and IIIA patients and a key secondary endpoint was DFS in Stage IB, II and IIIA patients.
Though the primary data readout was originally anticipated in 2022, data from the trial were first reported early in 2020, following a recommendation from an Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) based on its determination of overwhelming efficacy. The trial is ongoing and will continue to assess the secondary endpoint of OS.
TAGRISSO ®
TAGRISSO (osimertinib) is a third-generation, irreversible EGFR-TKI with proven clinical activity in NSCLC, including against central nervous system metastases. TAGRISSO (40mg and 80mg once-daily oral tablets) has been used to treat approximately 575,000 patients across indications worldwide and AstraZeneca continues to explore TAGRISSO as a treatment for patients across multiple stages of EGFRm NSCLC.
In Phase III trials, TAGRISSO is being investigated in the neoadjuvant resectable setting (NeoADAURA), in the Stage IA2-IA3 adjuvant resectable setting (ADAURA2), in the Stage III locally advanced unresectable setting following chemoradiation therapy (LAURA), and in combination with chemotherapy in the advanced setting (FLAURA2). AstraZeneca is also researching ways to address tumor mechanisms of resistance through the SAVANNAH and ORCHARD Phase II trials, and the SAFFRON Phase III trial, which test TAGRISSO given concomitantly with savolitinib, an oral, potent and highly selective MET TKI, as well as other potential new medicines.

Do NFL cheerleaders get paid? Here’s how much the average salary is originally appeared on NBC Sports Chicago
Considering how much time NFL cheerleaders commit to their teams and considering how much NFL franchises are worth, it is hard to believe they make so little.
Sometimes cheerleading requires arriving at games five hours prior to prepare for their performance or spending 30-40 hours a week in practice, and yet, they are paid significantly less than anyone else involved at the stadium.
In fact, they don’t just make little, they make minimum wage. Fifteen-year-old lifeguards who just started their first job earn the same amount of money as these cheerleaders who spend 14-hour days in the stadium and most of their lives on buses to and from games.
In 2021, NFL cheerleaders finally took a stand and rose to the occasion, filing lawsuits to help their cause.
With the 2022-23 season on the way, let’s take a look at what NFL cheerleaders make today and why it is so little:
Local
How much does an average NFL cheerleader make per game?
Surprisingly, NFL cheerleaders do not earn as much as you might think. On average, the cheerleaders earn about $150 per game. This comes out to about $22,500 per year.
They also receive anywhere from $50 to $75 if they are featured for a public appearance. Therefore, the more you strut your stuff on camera, the more you get paid.
How much do the highest-paid NFL cheerleaders make?
If we are not talking about averages, the most cheerleaders usually make is approximately $500 per match. That is, if you’re a popular, well-known squad.
For instance, Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders, aka America’s Sweethearts, who happen to be one of the most popular groups in the NFL, earn about $15-20 per hour, or $500 per match. Therefore, their yearly salary comes out to about $75,000.
Similarly, the Carolina Panthers cheerleaders’, otherwise known as the Carolina TopCats, are paid $75,000 yearly.
Why do NFL cheerleaders earn so little?
Technically the reason for this is because cheerleaders for the NFL, and the NBA for that matter, are independent contractors. This means the teams are not necessarily required to pay the cheerleaders salaries in line with state and federal minimum wages.
As a result, NFL cheerleaders, who used to earn as little as $5 per hour at one point in time, have been posing a fight for decades.
In 2021, a series of lawsuits brought about by these cheerleaders caused 10 out of 26 NFL teams to be sued for wage theft, unsafe working conditions, sexual harassment and discrimination.
The lawsuits included teams such as the New York Jets, the Buffalo Bills, the Cincinnati Bengals and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Tampa Bay cheerleaders’ lawsuit settled for a reported $825,000, and the Cincinnati cheerleaders’ settled for a reported $255,000, according to the Expert Institute.
Since then, a national conversation erupted involving the exploitation of women in sports, and now cheerleaders are respected and paid a bit more -- but still not as much as they should be.
How much do NFL cheerleaders make in comparison to other participants on the field?
NFL cheerleaders tend to make about $150 per game, or $22,500 per year, on average.
Meanwhile, NFL waterboys usually make $53,000 per year and NFL mascots make $25,000 per season.
How much do NFL cheerleaders make in comparison to NFL players?
There is a major disparity between the minimum wage earnings of an NFL cheerleader and an NFL player.
On average, an NFL player makes about $2 million per season. But remember, this is an average salary. Most of the players we know and love make way beyond that, including Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who will be making $150 million over the next three years ($50.3 million per year), as well as Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray, who makes $46.1 million per season.
How much do NFL cheerleaders make in comparison to NFL coaches?
NFL coaches can make up to about $7 million per season. But again, this is only an average.
When it comes to coaches and players, all I can say is: cha–ching!
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay makes upwards of $18 million per season, New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick makes $12.5 million, and Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll makes $11 million.

Revealing the truth about insulation to tackle winter chills
Here Angela Terry explores the best ways you can insulate your home for the coming winter.
Q: I want to install insulation, but won’t it make my home even hotter during summer heatwaves?
A: The good news is that insulation traps heat in the winter and keeps it out in the summer. It helps improve the efficiency of your home, whatever the temperature.
As both the cost of living and climate crises escalate, it’s a brilliant investment, financially and environmentally. It will keep your home warmer in winter, cooler in summer and cut your energy bills. Here’s the lowdown …
Most Popular
Wall insulation
works both ways
When it’s cold outside, wall insulation provides a thermal barrier that considerably reduces the amount of heat escaping from your home.
This means less heating is needed. In the summer, the reverse happens.
Hot air outside the home can’t get inside as easily.
The kind of wall insulation you need depends on your property.
Cavity wall insulation is suitable for homes built between 1930 and 1990.
It is installed by drilling small holes in the outside walls and then injecting mineral wool, polystyrene beads or polyurethane foam into the gap between the inner and outer walls.
Older properties with solid walls require solid insulation boards attached to the inside of external walls. Alternatively, homeowners can attach external cladding, but this is a slightly more expensive option.
Stop heating space
– insulate your loft
Heat rises. In the winter, this means a quarter of the heat escapes through your roof, if it’s not insulated. Fitting roof insulation isn’t necessarily a big job.
In many cases, you can do it yourself. Just make sure you follow expert guidance and the mineral wool is at least 27cm thick.
DIY tips
As well as wall and loft insulation, you can keep out the heat in summer and trap it in during winter with a series of easy DIY hacks. For a start, make sure all your windows are properly sealed by sticking a rubber trim around the inside of your windows.
You can buy it online or from DIY stores for about £13 a roll. If you haven’t got double glazing on windows, you can buy stick-on window film for around £8.
Also make sure you have blackout or thermal linings on your curtains or blinds. Go for the thickest ones you can afford.
Insulation is an
all-season solution
Insulation is how you can stop your home feeling uncomfortable throughout the year, without resorting to the expense – and additional carbon emissions – that come with turning up the heating or investing in aircon for the summer months.

Queen Elizabeth II: Tyson Fury-Anthony Joshua fight talks on hold "out of respect for Royal Family", says Frank Warren
Tyson Fury’s promoter says talks over a British superfight with Anthony Joshua are on hold following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
Both fighters’ teams are working to thrash out a deal that would see the country’s two biggest boxing stars meet.
Fury and Warren had set Joshua and his promoter Eddie Hearn a deadline of Thursday to agree a deal before events were overtaken by the passing of Her Majesty The Queen.

Asked about negotiations for the Joshua fight, Warren told talkSPORT: “Tyson and I, we just don’t feel it’s appropriate at the moment out of respect for the Royal Family.”
Joshua suffered a second straight defeat to Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia last month but Fury’s hopes of landing a bout with the Ukrainian were dashed when Usyk said he did not intend to fight again this year.
Fury wants to fight by the end of 2022, ideally in late November or early December, but Joshua would reportedly prefer a date closer to Christmas.
The former champion is open to a 60-40 purse split in Fury’s favour with the date of the fight currently looking like the biggest sticking point for the eagerly-anticipated contest that would likely be for Fury’s WBC title.
Warren said last week: “
Warren added on talkSPORT: “It’s us who have made the approach to give AJ a great opportunity to get himself back into the top level against the world champion Tyson.
“He’s willing to make that voluntary defence, so we’ll send the offer across and then they’ll have to look at it and decide whether they wanna grab this with both hands.”

(The Conversation) – Most of the debates on the usage of “Latinx” – pronounced “la-teen-ex” – have taken place in the U.S. But the word has begun to spread into Spanish-speaking countries – where it hasn’t exactly been embraced.
In July 2022, Argentina and Spain released public statements banning the use of Latinx, or any gender-neutral variant. Both governments reasoned that these new terms are violations of the rules of the Spanish language.
Latinx is used as an individual identity for those who are gender-nonconforming, and it can also describe an entire population without using “Latinos,” which is currently the default in Spanish for a group of men and women.
As a Mexican-born, U.S.-raised scholar, I agree with the official Argentine and Spanish stance on banning Latinx from the Spanish language – English, too.
When I first heard Latinx in 2017, I thought it was progressive and inclusive, but I quickly realized how problematic it was. Five years later, Latinx is not commonly used in Spanish-speaking countries, nor is it used by the majority of those identifying as Hispanic or Latino in the U.S.
In fact, there’s a gender-inclusive term that’s already being used by Spanish-speaking activists that works as a far more natural replacement.
Low usage
Though the exact origins of Latinx are unclear, it emerged sometime around 2004 and gained popularity around 2014. Merriam-Webster added it to its dictionary in 2018.
However, a 2019 Pew research study and 2021 Gallup poll indicated that less than 5% of the U.S. population used “Latinx” as a racial or ethnic identity.
Nonetheless, Latinx is becoming commonplace among academics; it’s used at conferences, in communication and especially in publications.
But is it inclusive to use Latinx when most of the population does not?
Perpetuating elitism
The distinct demographic differences of those who are aware of or use Latinx calls into question whether the term is inclusive or just elitist.
Individuals who self-identiy as Latinx or are aware of the term are most likely to be U.S.-born, young adults from 18 to 29 years old. They are predominately English-speakers and have some college education. In other words, the most marginalized communities do not use Latinx.
Scholars, in my view, should never impose social identities onto groups that do not self-identify that way.
I once had a reviewer for an academic journal article I submitted about women’s experiences with catcalling tell me to replace my use of “Latino” and “Latina” with “Latinx.” However, they had no issue with me using “man” or “woman” when it came to my white participants.
I was annoyed at the audacity of this reviewer. The goal of the study was to show catcalling, a gendered interaction, as an everyday form of sexism.
How was I supposed to differentiate my participants’ sexism experiences by gender and race if I labeled them all as Latinx?
The ‘x’ factor
If a term is truly inclusive, it gives equitable weight to vastly diverse experiences and knowledge; it is not meant to be a blanket identity.
Women of color, in general, are severely underrepresented in leadership positions and STEM fields. Using “Latinx” for women further obscures their contributions and identity. I have even seen some academics try to get around the nebulous nature of Latinx by writing “Latinx mothers” or “Latinx women” instead of “Latinas.”
Furthermore, if the goal is to be inclusive, the “x” would be easily pronounceable and naturally applied to other parts of the Spanish language.
Some Spanish speakers would rather identify by nationality – say, “Mexicano” or “Argentino” – instead of using umbrella terms like Hispanic or Latino. But the “x” can’t be easily applied to nationalities. Like Latinx, “Mexicanx” and “Argentinx” don’t exactly roll off the tongue in any language. Meanwhile, gendered articles in Spanish – “los” and “las” for the plural “the” – become “lxs,” while gendered pronouns –“el” and “ella” becomes “ellx.”
The utility and logic of it quickly falls apart.
‘Latine’ as an alternative
Many academics might feel compelled to continue to use Latinx because they fought hard to have it recognized by their institutions or have already published the term in an academic journal. But there is a much better gender-inclusive alternative, one that’s been largely overlooked by the U.S. academic community and is already being used in Spanish-speaking parts of Latin America, especially among young social activists in those countries.
It’s “Latine” – pronounced “lah-teen-eh” – and it’s far more adaptable to the Spanish language. It can be implemented as articles – “les” instead of “los” or “las,” the words for “the.” When it comes to pronouns, “elle” can become a singular form of “they” and used in place of the masculine “él” or feminine “ella,” which translate to “he” and “she.” It can also be readily applied to most nationalities, such as “Mexicane” or “Argentine.”
Because language shapes the way we think, it’s important to note that gendered languages like Spanish, German and French do facilitate gender stereotypes and discrimination. For example, in German, the word for bridge is feminine, and in Spanish, the word for bridge is masculine. Cognitive scientist Lera Boroditsky had German speakers and Spanish speakers describe a bridge. The German speakers were more likely to describe it using adjectives like “beautiful” or “elegant,” while the Spanish speakers were more likely to describe it in masculine ways – “tall” and “strong.”
Moreover, the existing gender rules in Spanish are not perfect. Usually words ending in “-o” are masculine and those ending in “-a” are feminine, but there are many common words that break those gender rules, like “la mano,” the word for “hand.” And, of course, Spanish already uses an “e” for gender-neutral words, such as “estudiante,” or “student.”
I believe Latine accomplishes what Latinx originally meant to and more. Similarly, it eliminates the gender binary in its singular and plural form. However, Latine is not confined to an elite, English-speaking population within the U.S. It is inclusive.
Nevertheless, problems can still arise when the word “Latine” is imposed onto others. “Latina” and “Latino” may still be preferable for many individuals. I don’t think the “-e” should eliminate the existing “-o” and the “-a.” Instead, it could be a grammatically acceptable addition to the Spanish language.
Yes, Argentina and Spain’s ban of Latinx also included a ban on the use of Latine. Here is where I diverge from their directive. To me, the idea that language can be purist is nonsensical; language always evolves, whether it’s through technology – think emojis and textspeak – or increased social awareness, such as the evolution from “wife beating” to “intimate partner violence.”
Linguistic theory posits that language shapes reality, so cultures and communities can create words that shape the inclusive world they want to inhabit.
Language matters. Latine embodies that inclusivity – across socioeconomic status, citizenship, education, gender identity, age groups and nations, while honoring the Spanish language in the process.

NEW YORK (AP) — Tourists and New Yorkers alike crowded around the Rockefeller Center roller skating rink on Saturday trying to catch a glimpse of the vibrant statement knits on display at Victor Glemaud’s latest New York Fashion Week show.
For the Haitian American designer, who grew up in New York, the show held a sentimental meaning but served also as a marker in his career as his brand continues to grow. He launched his label in 2006 and has since collaborated on a collection with Target and forayed into home goods with Schumacher.
Glemaud’s show opened with roller skaters wearing his signature knits, bursting onto Flipper’s Roller Boogie Palace rink, laughing and dancing as guests looked on. It continued with models displaying sheer looks, eye-catching cutouts, a few capes and a new collection of eyewear.
Glemaud drew inspiration for his contemporary sportswear looks from a recent trip to Harbour Island in the Bahamas. Glemaud said he wanted his collection to feel effortless, joyful and “something you want to wear in the summer.” Models strutted around the rink in skin-baring crocheted cover-ups looking like they'd just come from an ocean resort.
Glemaud’s brand was one of a record-breaking 28 Black-owned brands on display this New York Fashion Week.
“We have strived, and we love this industry,” Glemaud said of his fellow Black designers. “And, you know, our businesses for the majority are independently owned and self-financed. Fashion week means a lot. So, the more the merrier.”
During the pandemic, the designer founded “IN THE BLK,” a nonprofit collective to support Black creators in the fashion industry.
“It’s about bringing collective creative entrepreneurs together, not just fashion designers,” he said.
Glemaud’s show brought out a handful of TikTok celebrities, among them fashion influencer Brittany Xavier.
“I love that his collection is so inspired by summer and being together,” she said. “The kind of energy that we’ve been missing for the past two years.”
While Glemaud relied on a minimalist color palette and one animal print, that didn’t stop the youthfulness of his designs from shining through with his playful cut-outs. They elevated his dresses with a subtle sensuality and gave a stylish update to swimsuits.
The capes emblazoned with the letter “V" and form-fitting leopard prints would have been considered showstoppers of the night, had it not been for one moment that stood out from the rest: As the show wrapped, Glemaud’s mother, Julie, began to tear up with pride.
“The vibration, the love, the joy, she said. “It is always fun with Victor.”

Who is Nessa Barrett?
NESSA Barrett went viral on TikTok for lip-syncing and quickly gained over 19million followers on the app.
The teenage star has shown her versatility by diversifying her content over the years.
Who is Nessa Barrett?
Nessa Barrett, 20, is a famous TikTok star who rose to fame by posting lip-syncing videos of popular songs.
Her first video blew up with over 250,000 views.
As she started posting more frequently, her videos only got more attention.
Now, she gets millions of views per video, racking up a couple hundred thousand likes each.
Nessa also has over 7million followers on Instagram and nearly 2million on Twitter.
Since going viral on social media, Nessa has launched a successful music career.
The songstress appeared on The Ellen Show with Travis Barker and her ex-boyfriend, Jaden Hossler.
Her net worth is estimated to be $1million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
Who has Nessa Barrett dated?
Nessa was dating fellow TikTok star, Jaden Hossler.
In April 2021, both performers had the number "3" tattooed on their bodies, according to Seventeen.
Nessa had the number inked on her left thumb while Jaden had it placed on the right side of his neck.
It is not clear what the number meant to their relationship.
On May 2, 2022, however, the pair called it quits.
Nessa and Josh Richards were together for about seven months until they broke up in June of 2020.
The two met on TikTok and used to create content together.
Richards said in a YouTube video: "There comes a point in relationships where you realize maybe it isn't best to be together.
“We realized that we needed to mature and we needed to grow as people. We were in a very serious relationship but we weren't ready for as serious as it was."
What did Nessa Barrett say about her mental health?
On August 31, 2022, Nessa revealed via TikTok that she had been admitted into a psych ward three weeks ago - this time being her first admittance as an adult.
The video comes only two months after the death of her best friend, Cooper Noriega.
'It was terrible, traumatizing and hell for me,' she said as she described her experience on video.
But she ended off on a high note, telling fans that although she was still in 'recovery,' she came out more grateful than before.
Nessa has also, in the past, been open with fans about her struggle with borderline personality disorder, depression and anxiety.
What did she say about Cooper Noriega?
In a lengthy Instagram post made on June 11, 2022, Nessa expressed her sorrow at the news of Cooper Noriega's death.
She stated: "I’ve spent the past two days trying to comprehend how this could be real. there’s simply no way of processing the loss of ur best friend. I’ve been trying to understand how life could possibly still have meaning with u gone.
"A part of me died with u. but what’s left of me is going to live for u. I’ll spend the rest of my life finishing everything we’ve ever dreamed of. I want to make u proud. U had the biggest heart I’ve ever encountered on this earth. a heart way too big for u to even carry.
She continued: "For so long it was u and me just simply keeping each other alive. our bond was like no other. no one understood me the way u did. u saved me. u saved so many people.
"It broke my heart knowing how much pain u carried when u were such a light to this world. I’ve always been so amazed by ur strength and how u carried urself. even in ur darkest times, u were nothing but the kindest and most caring human being. u were heaven-sent cooper."
She concluded: "I’m convinced God sends angels to walk this earth to help heal people and u were one of them. u were always my guardian angel. I’m living every day for u. it’s all for u. I can’t wait to see u again my sweet boy. my best friend forever, rest in peace. 444."

CAMPBELL COUNTY, Tenn. (WATE) — John Michael Montgomery and two others were injured when the singer’s tour bus crashed in Tennessee near the Kentucky state line.
The 57-year-old country musician was a passenger on a 2001 Prevost Featherlite bus traveling south on I-75 just south of Jellico when it veered off the interstate, hit an embankment and overturned, according to a Tennessee Highway Patrol report.
“Despite some cuts and broken ribs, I am doing well,” the singer said in a statement. Montgomery said he was on his way to a concert in North Carolina at the time of the crash.
Montgomery, who hails from Nicholasville, Kentucky, has released 10 studio albums and had more than 30 singles on the Billboard country charts, including “I Love the Way You Love Me,” “Life’s a Dance,” and “I Swear.”
He is the father of country singer Walker Montgomery and brother to Eddie Montgomery, with whom he performed as part of the band Montgomery Gentry.
“Thanks to everyone for your concern,” Montgomery said.
Photos and video from the scene show the bus on its side in the middle of the interstate, and being set upright by a towing company.
Two others on the bus – Marc Wood and William Salyer – were also injured in the crash, according to the THP report.
The report also states that Montgomery and Wood were using seat belts, but Salyer was not wearing one.
“I will take some time over the next couple of weeks to heal and be back on the road soon,” Montgomery said. “I am grateful to the medics and highway patrol for their quick response to this difficult situation.”
There are no pending charges in the wreck.

Shareholders in AEye (NASDAQ:LIDR) are in the red if they invested a year ago
It's not a secret that every investor will make bad investments, from time to time. But it would be foolish to simply accept every extremely large loss as an inevitable part of the game. So spare a thought for the long term shareholders of AEye, Inc. (NASDAQ:LIDR); the share price is down a whopping 81% in the last twelve months. That'd be a striking reminder about the importance of diversification. Because AEye hasn't been listed for many years, the market is still learning about how the business performs. Furthermore, it's down 50% in about a quarter. That's not much fun for holders. We note that the company has reported results fairly recently; and the market is hardly delighted. You can check out the latest numbers in our company report. While a drop like that is definitely a body blow, money isn't as important as health and happiness.
So let's have a look and see if the longer term performance of the company has been in line with the underlying business' progress.
View our latest analysis for AEye
Given that AEye didn't make a profit in the last twelve months, we'll focus on revenue growth to form a quick view of its business development. Generally speaking, companies without profits are expected to grow revenue every year, and at a good clip. Some companies are willing to postpone profitability to grow revenue faster, but in that case one does expect good top-line growth.
In the last twelve months, AEye increased its revenue by 49%. That's well above most other pre-profit companies. So on the face of it we're really surprised to see the share price down 81% over twelve months. There's clearly something unusual going on here such as an acquisition that hasn't delivered expected profits. What is clear is that the market is not judging the company on its revenue growth right now. Of course, markets do over-react so share price drop may be too harsh.
The image below shows how earnings and revenue have tracked over time (if you click on the image you can see greater detail).
If you are thinking of buying or selling AEye stock, you should check out this FREE detailed report on its balance sheet.
A Different Perspective
AEye shareholders are down 81% for the year, even worse than the market loss of 14%. There's no doubt that's a disappointment, but the stock may well have fared better in a stronger market. The share price decline has continued throughout the most recent three months, down 50%, suggesting an absence of enthusiasm from investors. Given the relatively short history of this stock, we'd remain pretty wary until we see some strong business performance. While it is well worth considering the different impacts that market conditions can have on the share price, there are other factors that are even more important. Even so, be aware that AEye is showing 4 warning signs in our investment analysis , you should know about...

Our final live broadcast of the weekend sees Blackrock and Imokilly clash at Cork GAA HQ.
Imokilly came through the Colleges/Divisions section quite comfortably, defeating Avondhu in the decider.
The 2017, '18 and '19 county champions will feel they can regain their crown, and if the likes of Brian Lawton, Will Leahy and Cork veteran Seamus Harnedy continue to hit the heights, anything can happen.
There’s a sense that Blackrock have yet to fire this season. The forward talents of Alan Connolly, Tadhg Deasy, and Michael O'Halloran will be crucial to any improved performance.
Patrick Mulcahy will be back on the mic, assisted by Seanie McGrath and Ronan Curran.

Gov’s ads false, insult farmers
Recent TV ads that Gov. J.B. Pritzker approved in his campaign against Darren Bailey are misleading.
The ads accuse Bailey’s campaign of being financed by taxpayers and success that is wrong.
Bailey is a farmer in southern Illinois. As a grain farmer, he is eligible to receive government farm subsidies that are available to all farmers in our state and nation.
The PPE loan he received was also part of the government’s plan to help small businesses and farmers survive the pandemic and government shutdowns.
Most of these subsidies were received over many years of his farm operation.
One Pritzker ad also implicated and insulted all farmers by suggesting that receiving government farm subsidies is improper or illegal.
Pritzker’s family owns farmland, and it’s more than likely received the same farm subsidies.
As a retired certified public accountant and farm tax consultant, I believe it is deplorable that our governor has resorted to such misleading advertising to win the governor’s race.
I hope voters will think and use common sense before casting their ballot in November.

Fans of Lea Michele hoping to finally see her singing and dancing in “Funny Girl” on Broadway will have to be patient.
The “Glee” actor has tested positive for COVID-19 — missing Saturday’s matinee and evening performance — and must now quarantine, slated to return to the show on Tuesday, Sept. 20. She only started on Tuesday.
The bittersweet comedy tells the tale of Fanny Brice, a Jewish girl from New York in the 1920s who went from burlesque to Broadway stages despite criticism that she wasn’t conventionally beautiful.
“Funny Girl” is a musical that celebrates the oddballs, the kooky and the misfits, with Jule Styne-penned gems of songs like “Don’t Rain on My Parade,” “I’m the Greatest Star” and “People.” Barbra Streisand played her on stage and on film.
Julie Benko, who had been slated to play Fanny on Thursdays in the revival, will be performing the role now until Michele is back. Michele took over from Beanie Feldstein and said the role was a lifetime goal.
“We are so thankful to the entire ‘Funny Girl’ company, including our standbys, understudies, swings and everyone working on the production for their remarkable commitment to keeping the show going and ensuring audiences have a great experience at every performance,” the show said in a statement.
Starting in July, vaccine requirements for Broadway audience members were lifted and theatergoers had the option to wear a mask in all 41 of New York’s Broadway theaters.
One production, “The Kite Runner,” pushed back, asking audiences at Wednesday matinees and Friday night to mask up.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has lifted her state’s mandatory mask rules in schools and the subway. Face coverings are merely encouraged on buses and trains.

Elderly man slashed in head by machete-wielding disturbed woman with slew of prior arrests
An 82-year-old concierge at a tony Upper West Side building was slashed in the head with a machete by a disturbed woman let loose despite a slew of prior arrests, cops and sources said.
Hubert Meulens, 82, was left with a fractured skull and 11 stitches after 20-year-old Deashe Calhoun lunged at him in an unprovoked attack, slashing him in the face at Stone Street and Broadway, MTA police and sources said.
“Even with just one blow, I could have passed away,” Meulens said in a phone interview from his Bellevue Hospital bed after his ordeal.
“I’m surprised she wasn’t in prison,” he said of his attacker. “She needs to be away from society for a long time.”
Calhoun was out free after seven prior arrests involving a machete or other weapons, including a similar attack just days ago, sources said. Calhoun was arrested and released after she followed a 31-year-old man and displayed her machete but didn’t use it on Aug. 25, sources said.
The suspect is a known emotionally disturbed person with an affinity for weapons, according to sources.
“A maniac,” said one police source. “She’s known to carry knives, sharp instruments, machetes. How is she out walking around?”
Meulens’ son has felt an attack was inevitable on his hardworking dad – a “soft target” amid worsening crime in the Big Apple.
“I tell him every night, be careful on the trains and in the street,” son Peter Marcel, 50, told The Post. “There are a lot of zombies on the trains, who are very unpredictable and irrational. It’s not being dealt with. Unfortunately, my fears have come true.”
Meulens, an immigrant from Curacao and former Pace University-educated accountant, insisted on continuing to work as he continues to cares for his 82-year-old wife, a retired nurse suffering from cancer, diabetes and dementia, Marcel said.
“He still goes to work at nights to pay his rent and take care of his family. That’s what he wants to do and at that age you can’t really tell him no,” Marcel said. “He looks after his wife. He comes home and cooks for her every day. He takes his rest and then it’s rinse and repeat.”
“This is what happens when you let people run around the streets with weapons,“ said a Manhattan cop. “Eventually they will use them and attack an innocent elderly person.”
Meulens was downtown to renew his senior MetroCard when he was attacked, he said.
After Meulens was slashed in the face, he stumbled down Broadway after his attacker, but she spun around and sprayed him with the bear spray and kept walking toward MTA headquarters, authorities said. Three MTA cops spotted her with the spray and “acting irrationally” in front of headquarters, then saw her drop the machete from under her armpit, according to authorities.
Calhoun was arrested for assault, attempted assault, criminal possession of a weapon and harassment, cops said.
Meulens is now expected to remain hospitalized until at least Thursday, he said.
“I am not angry,” the concierge said. “I would suggest she needs to be examined by a doctor. She needs psychiatric help.”
Back on March 26, she was charged for threatening someone in Washington Square Park while brandishing a knife and declaring “I’m coming for ya,” sources said. Three months later, on June 26, she was charged with flashing a switchblade at someone in a Blink fitness on Avenue A in Manhattan, sources said.
The suspect was also charged with tampering with physical evidence on July 28, then arrested again three days later on a weapons charge after she brandished her trusty machete to a victim on Fifth Avenue, according to sources.
Twice in August, she was spotted with blades on Brooklyn trains – once on Aug. 7 when she was caught with two knives, and once again on Aug. 13 when she was seen with her machete in plain view, sources added.
Wednesday’s attack had the victim’s son fuming about crime, saying “New York City is not safe.”
“He doesn’t trouble anyone at all. He is definitely non-confrontational,” Meulens said of his dad. “If there was a defensive driving for pedestrians, he would be that type of person.”
“I’m no longer interested in being in New York,” Marcel added. “My parents came here for the dream but I tell my mom, it’s time to go.”
Mayor Eric Adams made a plea for change in the wake of the crime, saying public safety remains his administration’s top priority.
“We can no longer allow this catch, release, repeat system to continue to hurt innocent New Yorkers,” Adams said in a statement. “This individual was caught with a dangerous weapon multiple times over the last six months yet was still able to slash a man today. This madness must stop. It’s time we demand more from everyone involved in our criminal justice system and stand up for the innocent people of this city.”
Several Republicans blasted New York State Gov. Kathy Hochul and Democrats after the attack, noting how state bail reform has made the charges Calhoun has faced non bail eligible.
“Every New Yorker must ask their Democratic state lawmakers and Kathy Hochul why they are OK with machete wielding psychos racking up records of recidivism without the slightest hint of consequence,” Councilman Joe Borelli told The Post. “We are all paying the price so that woke politicians can say ‘we reduced the population of Rikers.’ Hooray for us!”
Republican State Party Chairman Nick Langworthy said the “crime crisis will continue to rage out of control” unless voters demand change.
“Another victim of Kathy Hochul’s bail law is lying in a hospital bed from a violent, unprovoked attack,” he said in a statement. “New York City better wake up from their Democrat brain fog because the only way to stop this madness is to elect Lee Zeldin as governor”

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Nate Diaz stopped Tony Ferguson with a guillotine choke in the fourth round of the hastily arranged main event of UFC 279 on Saturday night.
The 37-year-old Diaz (21-13) finished his current UFC contract by finishing fellow veteran Ferguson (25-9) in a matchup only made on Friday after Khamzat Chimaev badly missed weight for his main-event bout with Diaz.
Chimaev stopped Kevin Holland with a D’Arce choke 2:13 into the first round of their grudge match, which was also created after Chimaev (12-0) missed weight by 7 1/2 pounds on Friday morning. The UFC dramatically shuffled its card to keep both Chimaev and Diaz on the show, resulting in three new matchups for the final three fights at T-Mobile Arena.
Diaz’s desire to fight the vaunted Chimaev seemed foolhardy in a distinctly Diaz way, but the late matchup with Ferguson was much more competitive than the original booking likely would have been. Ferguson, who only agreed to be on the card three weeks ago, had lost his previous four fights over the past three years, while Diaz was 1-2 in the last six years.
“At the end of the day, I love the UFC,” Diaz said. “I feel like I’ve had the longest career in the UFC, and I’ve had the most successful one out of everybody.”
Diaz landed punches regularly on Ferguson in the first two rounds, and he played to the crowd in the third with long walks around the cage between exchanges, even resting with one arm atop the cage momentarily.
Ferguson got Diaz’s attention with leg kicks — but when Ferguson attempted to get into a grappling match, Diaz applied the choke and finished at 2:52 of the fourth.
Diaz has already announced plans to start his own promotional company outside the UFC, and each fight could be the last for a well-loved fighter who has competed only four times in the last six years.
But Diaz might not be done with the UFC, since he got a tweet earlier Saturday from Conor McGregor, who promised to complete their trilogy. Diaz and McGregor split two largely thrilling bouts in 2016, and the results catapulted Diaz into the top echelon of celebrities in mixed martial arts.
“I want to get out of the UFC for a minute and show these UFC fighters how to take over and own up another sport how you’re supposed to do it,” Diaz said. “Because Conor McGregor didn’t know how to do it, and none of these other fighters know how to do it, so I’m going to go out there and I’m going to take over another organization, another profession, and become the best at that, and then I’m going to be right back here to get another UFC title. It’s the best battle in the world.”
The pay-per-view went off with several significant changes made just one day earlier because Chimaev didn’t come close to his contracted weight — and then shrugged and smiled about it on the scale. Chimaev, the Chechnya-born Swede considered one of MMA’s top rising talents, was loudly booed by the crowd just off the Las Vegas Strip on fight night.
Instead of removing Chimaev or Diaz from the card, the UFC scrambled to make three new matchups for the top three fights on the show. Diaz and Ferguson were paired in a fight long coveted by MMA fans but initially rejected by Diaz, while Chimaev was matched at a catchweight against Holland.
Chimaev and Holland already had bad blood from earlier in the week when they fought backstage at the UFC 279 news conference, forcing the event’s cancellation.
After a frantic exchange in the opening seconds, Chimaev made quick work of Holland. His burgeoning reputation as a heel only grew when he was asked about missing weight in the post-fight interview and responded “I don’t care about (that),” to thunderous boos.
“I’m the black belt here,” Chimaev added. “I’m Mike Tyson. I’m Muhammad Ali.”
Li Jingliang, who began the week expecting to face Ferguson, was matched with Daniel Rodriguez, Holland’s scheduled opponent. Rodriguez (17-2) beat Li (19-8) by split decision in an uneventful bout in which both fighters were understandably cautious of their unfamiliar opponent.
Light heavyweight Johnny Walker led off the pay-per-view card with a submission of Ion Cuțelaba before Irene Aldana stopped Macy Chiasson with an extraordinary upkick to the body while Aldana was down on the canvas. Aldana drove her heel into Chiasson’s abdomen while Chiasson was towering over her, ending the fight abruptly.
On the early undercard, heavyweight Chris Barnett stopped Jake Collier in the first round with punches. Barnett missed weight for his bout, which was fought at a catchweight.

Kyprios underlined his status as king of the staying division as he extended his unbeaten record to five in the Comer Group International Irish St Leger at the Curragh.
Winner of the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot and the Goodwood Cup on his last two starts, Aidan O’Brien’s charge was odds-on to make it a Group One hat-trick on day two of Irish Champions Weekend.
Kyprios had to be pushed along early to get into Ryan Moore’s preferred position on the heels of the leaders, but his early work paid dividends as Kyprios was able to strike for home at the top of the straight as pace-setter Jason The Militant dropped away.
It looked as though Kyprios would gallop clear, but William Haggas’ British raider Hamish emerged from the pack to make a battle of it, closing to within half a length of the winner, who was just too strong in coming home three-quarters to the good.
Search For A Song, a previous dual winner of the race and a second string for Kyprios’ owners Moyglare Stud, was a seven-length third.
O’Brien said: “He’s very tough. He’s very relaxed and is always only in the gear that you want. Ryan gave him a great ride.
“He’s a great horse to have. He’s obviously a horse that gets a trip, but he has a lot of class. He’s very relaxed which is a massive help and helps him get the trip.
“He’s very brave, very clear winded, a good mover and a great mind. It’s just a pleasure to have him.
“He’s very easy to deal with and it leaves him with a lot of options. He was probably extra lazy today and maybe it was the soft ground that made him a little bit more laboured.
“He could go back to a mile and a half, but obviously we would love to have him around for the Gold Cup for the coming years because he is a unique horse.
“It was great that Eva (Maria Bucher Haefner, of Moyglare) was here to see him today.”
Coral make Kyprios the 6-4 favourite for the Qipco British Champions Long Distance Cup at Ascot next month – but a Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe bid is not totally ruled out.
When asked if he could be tempted to run at ParisLongchamp, O’Brien added: “We’ll see what happens, what everyone thinks, and see what way the ground is going to be.
“He is only a four-year-old so for a stayer he is very young to have done what he has done already.
“We saw today that he just does the minimum, so it’s very hard to know how much is in there really.
“He’s out a great mare from a great family and obviously he’s by Galileo. He’s very unique really.”

LAS VEGAS (AP) — A Las Vegas woman has been sentenced to at least 20 years in prison in connection with the death of her boyfriend’s young daughter in 2019.
A jury in July convicted 26-year-old Shevhuan Miller on charges of murder and child abuse.
The Clark County coroner’s office determined 5-year-old Janiyah Russell died of blunt force injuries.
On Thursday, a district judge sentenced Miller to between 20 and 50 years in prison for first-degree murder and child abuse, neglect or endangerment resulting in substantial bodily harm.
The child’s father — 27-year-old Richard Davis — is scheduled to go to trial in February.
Prosecutors said Davis is facing charges of murder and six counts of child abuse, neglect or endangerment resulting in substantial bodily harm.
Court records show Davis and Miller called police on Sept. 11, 2019 to report the child was cold and unresponsive.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal reported that Miller told police she put the child in the bathtub and later dressed the girl, laid her on a couch and went back to bed for two hours.
Davis admitted to spanking his daughter with a belt about 20 times a few days earlier, according to the newspaper.

As small businesses raise prices, some customers push back
NEW YORK (AP) — Inflation isn’t only costing small businesses money. It’s costing them customers as well.
At the Bushwick Grind Cafe in Brooklyn, New York, Kymme Williams-Davis has raised prices and switched to different types of goods to keep up with the rising costs of milk, coffee, paper goods and plastic, as well as shortages of items such as paper cups and plastic lids. She hasn’t experienced anything like this since opening in 2015.
Williams-Davis says she has lost nearly half of her regular customers. Some have traded down and are buying coffee for $1 at the McDonald’s or bodega on either side of the café instead of paying the $3 she charges.
“If (customers) can get it for a dollar for not that notable of a difference, they’re going next door.”
One customer who had been coming in for years stopped in to tell Williams-Davis he bought himself a coffeemaker.
“He said I’m going to start making coffee at home, I need to budget, so I won’t be coming in here every day,” she said. “I feel like I’ve been on a goodbye campaign.”
Inflation has been rising at nearly the fastest pace in 40 years, driven up by strong consumer spending and higher costs for food, rent, medical care, and other necessities.
On Tuesday, the government is expected to report that price increases slowed in August compared with a year ago, largely because of a steady drop in the cost of gas. Prices for other items, particularly food, are likely to keep rising quickly. Overall, economists forecast consumer prices rose 8.1% in August, compared with a year ago, down from 8.5% in July, according to data provider FactSet.
For much of the pandemic, small business customers were largely tolerant of price increases and kept on spending. But now owners say they’re seeing some pushback.
Ninety-seven percent of small business owners say inflationary pressure is the same or worse than it was three months ago, according to a survey of more than 1,500 small businesses by Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Business Voices. Sixty-five percent have raised prices to offset higher costs. And 38% say they’ve seen a decline in customer demand due to price increases.
Nicole Miskelley, who manages PMR, an auto and diesel repair shop in Marion, Illinois, said she has seen customers delay repairs that aren’t urgent such as scheduled maintenance or getting new tires.
At the beginning of the year, Miskelley’s labor costs rose 12% and the cost of towing cars to the shop went up due to higher gas prices. Parts are more expensive too. Last year, an air conditioner processor would cost her $200, but this year she can’t find one for under $400. So, she’s had to raise her average price for a repair by 30% to 40%.
Her customers have noticed.
“Typically, I am able to joke about how drastically different things are now and most agree with me,” she said. “On occasion, I deal with push back,” including the rare bout of yelling or cursing by a customer.
“Among a lot of my older customers, who are on restricted income like Social Security, they say they have to cut back,” she said. “They say, ‘I know I need these tires, but I need to make a couple more rounds (of Social Security) to save up.’”
She says she’s a little worried but hopes people can adjust to inflation.
“Right now , it kind of sucks because costs increased faster than I could catch up with. In time, I hope people budget better and their incomes change to reflect the economy.”
The pullback is more dramatic among consumers with less discretionary income. Walmart says its customers, who tend to have lower incomes, are spending more on food and less on other items. Small business owners are seeing much of the same.
Kim Shanahan operates the online store Gifts Fulfilled in Berlin, Maryland, which sells gift baskets and care packages and employs people with disabilities.
“Last year has been challenging to say the least,” she said. “All prices across the board have gone up.” Everything from cardboard, containers and the food that she includes in the baskets have become more expensive.
She implemented a 5% increase to cover some costs. After she raised the price of her most popular get-well gift basket called “One Tough Cookie,” from $27.50 to $28.95, sales went down, she said.
Less expensive baskets, such as those with gifts and candy that sell for $25 and under, have been the most affected, with unit sales down about 50% in 2022 compared with last year. “The whole segment of the market is gone for us,” she said.
“We are a ‘want to-’ not ‘have to-’ have item in our primary categories,” Shanahan said. “What we sort of see is people maybe buying a $50 gift dropping down to $35. And the whole lower tier aren’t even buying at all, they don’t have the discretionary funds.”
Schuyler Northstrom of Uinta Mattress, a mattress maker in Salt Lake City, Utah, says he’s raised his prices by 15% since 2020. A mattress that used to sell for $289 wholesale is now $330.
The increase doesn’t fully cover Uinta’s higher costs. Raw materials such as springs and foam have increased by 40%. But Northstrom fears that raising prices any higher could cause his customers to drop him.
“The pushback from retailers is pretty strong there,” he said. His retail partners include John Paras mattress stores and 2Brothers Mattress, both in Utah. “Sometimes we’re displaced by some of the larger guys with a lower cost product because of their volume.”
To adapt, Northstrom is redesigning the mattress to cut down on costs, and taking less profit, which isn’t sustainable in the long term, he said. He’s also focusing more on the higher end, mattresses that cost up to $1,200, which hasn’t been hit as hard.
“We’re feeling it, we’re not a necessary purchase, people buy food and gas,” he said.

After winning hearts as the reformed gobby cage dancer, soap star Paula Lane will be playing a 'Kylie-esque' character in Oldham Coliseum Theatre's stage production of Road, Jim Cartwright’s powerful snapshot of Lancashire life during Thatcher’s England in the 80s.
In the play, running at the Coliseum from Friday September 16 to Saturday October 1, Paula plays not one but four characters, including the 'hostile and bitter' Brenda, who she says like is an older version of feisty Kylie. Speaking about the challenges of playing multiple characters on stage she said: "I feel like if anything it's given me lot of a freedom. You've got to be on the ball the whole time.
"It keeps you on the ball, you're having to be extra alert all the time. And for an actor it's particularly fun because you're exploring different energies moods and emotions."

Asked if there are parallels between this play and Corrie, which has portrayed working class life in the fictional town of Weatherfield in Greater Manchester since it first aired in 1960, she said: "I think so. For sure It's a little bit more hard-hitting because it doesn't leave anything behind. It doesn't leave anything unspoken. Everything is out there in this play.
"If a character is feeling angry that will fully come out all guns blazing, whereas Corrie has to kind of be mindful of family viewing and what not. Let's just say it's probably like Corrie times 100.
"You've got the great northern grit, the comedy that might just not land if it was set elsewhere. We are resilient people that are natually funny at times even through tragedy. I guess there will be similarities."
She added: "I'm sure people will go that was a bit Kylie-esque that because obviously she's on a similar sort of level. Brenda is probably like an older version of Kylie to be honest if it had all fallen apart for her."
Mum-of-two Kylie had a tragic departure from the ITV soap when she was stabbed to death outside the kebab shop by thug Clayton Hibbs after buying champagne to celebrate a new start for her family in Barbados with her half sister Becky McDonald. The 36-year-old actress believes that it was the right time to leave the street following a triumphantly flawless live episode in 2015.
Asked what may have come of her character Paula said: "Who knows? That's the beauty of storytelling. Sometimes it can end sometimes it can have continuation, it is what it is.
"But I guess it's good to leave people wanting more, to leave people guessing rather than 'I wish they'd get rid of that one, she's no good.' I get it a lot. I can't tell you how many times people are like 'I really miss you on that, if they'd have just done this...'"
Taking a lead role in the live episode, which saw Kylie kill her ex Callum Logan with a wrench and bury his body in a manhole under Gail Platt's granny flat, Paula says it prepared her for future roles on stage. "The live episode we knew we were playing out to millions. Insane," she said.
"You've got that camera there and you're thinking 'there are millions of people watching behind that lens. Okay.' It did prep me for that feeling of the here and now and feeling quote exposed."
Paula, who joined the soap in 2010, says she's proud of what she achieved with the troubled character. Kylie had an explosive arrival in Weatherfield when she sold her son Max to her sister Becky for £20,000 and became a permanent resident when she turned out to be David's new fiancee when he returned home from holiday engaged.
"I feel really proud because she wasn't the easiest to love from an audience point of view and that was my job as the actor and the writers. We fed each other," she reflected.
"I knew I just couldn't make her this chav. There had to be a story and reasons as to why she beheved the way she did and once that was established it was easier to pad her out and have those moments that tenderness and things.
"I feel really proud they really took her in their heart and she's missed and that I had equal amount of comedy as I did tragedy. You can't ask for more."
Paula added: "I feel like I played every single side of her that I could do. I never wanted to get bored of her. She was worth way more than that."
Paula is also proud to have an acting family. Her husband Tom Shaw, who she married in 2014, also starred in Coronation Street in April and June 2017 as Kim Vaughan, a friend of Fiz Stape, and their children Arthur, seven, and Penny, six, are following in their footsteps.
She said: "They've just done a big advert that's on at the minute for Dairylea and Arthur's done a feature film at the start of the year with Matt Smith and Morfydd Clark. He got that role. So we're all in the industry now which to be honest wasn't intentional. Arthur got that job through a casting call, it was nothing to do with that his parents are actors."
Paula says Road, first premiered at the Royal Court Theatre in London in 1986, is still as relevant as today as it was when it was first performed. "There's a lot of people who can most probably recognise themselves perhaps in some of the characters up there or perhaps can sympathise now with how quickly your circumstances can change," she explained.
"It's hard-hitting, these people, these characters are in a pretty dire situation. But at the same time some of them cope very differently with that and it's fascinating that actually some are alright with that. Some actually go 'do you know what this is my lot and this is my road and that's cool and take what we've got.'
"Wheras you get other characters who would love to break out of that and aspire to be the things that for whatever reason they're just unable to and. They're locked in and can't get out of it. Similar to how some of us feel."

It is a low-impact, highly social alternative to tennis, says Julie Johnson, one of the world’s top-ranked pro senior women’s singles players.

Fishburne will also be a character in the show as the Beyonder, who if you're familiar with the comics, has a significant role in some certain Wars that are a Secret, though this take on the character will probably be a bit more comedic like the rest of the show.

Jamal Avery Jr. and Emma Burman showed off their original characters of youngling Kai Brightstar and pilot Nash Durango before showing some exclusive footage, which revealed a new adorable character by the name of Nubs and the return of Master Yoda.

Kelly Ripa's first book is coming out with a bang. The talk show host is revealing in her upcoming new memoir, Live Wire: Long-Winded Short Stories, that she once passed out while having sex with Mark Consuelos, but it's not what you think!
In an excerpt that appeared in Haute Living, the Live With Kelly and Ryan co-host reveals why the tryst made it into a chapter she dubbed "Don't Let Your Husband Pick Your Death Clothes." Yes, there's an astonishingly and entertainingly good explanation for the chapter's title.
As the 51-year-old tells it, this all went down in 1997 when she was a new mom to 6-month-old Michael. Ripa and Consuelos, who tied the knot in 1996 and are parents of three, were in the middle of morning sex when, suddenly, she passed out, but it had little to do with Consuelos and everything to do with two large cysts growing on her ovaries.
The next thing Ripa knows, she wakes up in the hospital with her hunky hubby sitting next to her nonchalantly snacking away. The excerpt picks up with Ripa opening her eyes while on a hospital bed.
"My eyes shift between the fuzzy images on the screen, the remnants of my ovarian tormentor, and Mark happily snacking away," she writes. "Sex can be so traumatic I think, and yet one of us is completely undaunted. There he is, happily munching on the saltines now and ordering a second apple juice. Mark could be at a movie, or a spa. Instead, I’m flat on my back wondering when the other two cysts will burst."
The most shocking part, however, is not that she landed in the hospital -- and she can say that now in hindsight -- but the fact she ended up in the hospital looking like, her words, a "dime store prostitute."
"Here is my husband, who is, dare I say, stylish, well-dressed at all times, and yet he dressed me like a dime store prostitute in my time of need," Ripa writes in the book. "It’s still baffling to me to this day that this is the best costume for the day that he could find for me, to the point where, when I was on the stretcher, I thought I was dreaming; I was having a nightmare. I didn’t realize I had come to."
According to the book, Consuelos hastily dressed Ripa in a 1980s-style French-cut leotard and red "f**k me" Manolo Blahniks, plus a pair of her hubby's oversized Juventus warm-up pants with side snaps. The horror!
Live Wire: Long-Winded Short Stories is due out Sept. 27.

Miranda Kerr puts her slender and toned physique in skintight spandex as she heats up in a sauna.
The stunning model hasn’t aged a day since she hit the runway for the trendiest fashion brands in the early 2000s.
The 39-year-old model and skincare founder has been busy expanding her business empire.
Her brand, Kora Organics, has recently expanded to body products after earning numerous awards for its facial serums.
As the name suggests, the products are organic and she has spilled the secrets of her youthful appearance while promoting the brand.
Kerr was previously married to Orlando Bloom and they had their first child together. She is now married to Snapchat billionaire CEO Evan Spiegel and the pair share two children.
Miranda Kerr sweats in tight spandex after an exercise session
The mother of three looks lean and toned in pink spandex after putting in work in the gym.
“Love sweating it out in a sauna after a workout,” she wrote on the Instagram Story selfie.
The supermodel looks flawless in the selfie with her wrinkle-free skin and gym-honed figure.
Earlier this year, the model went make-up free in a video for her Kora Organic product, Active Algae Lightweight Moisturizer.
The Kora Organics founder revealed in an interview with Body & Soul via Harpers Bazaar that she works out every day and mixes up her workouts with Pilates, resistance training, and running.
She keeps her diet clean for the most part as well, sticking to healthy options such as grilled chicken and salad.
Keer treats herself to some dark chocolate or ice cream twice a week, telling the publication she has a weakness for her grandmother’s pavlova.
Miranda Kerr talks about co-parenting with Orlando Bloom
Kerr and her ex-husband Orlando Bloom maintain a healthy co-parenting relationship.
In an interview with Vogue Australia, the model spoke about the status of their relationship revealing that they put their son Flynn first:
“Co-parenting with Orlando and Katy is something that I feel really happy about,” Kerr told the publication:
“From day one when Orlando and I decided to separate, I said, ‘Listen, whatever we do, we have to put Flynn’s needs first, not our own.’ That’s the way we make our decisions. Family is my number-one priority,” she revealed.
The supermodel and Bloom parted ways in 2013 after three years of marriage. Kerr went on to marry Snapchat billionaire Evan Spiegel in 2017. The pair have two sons Hart and Miles born in 2018 and 2019 respectively.

The Buffalo Bills beat the Los Angeles Rams 31-10 in offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey’s first regular season contest with play-calling duties.
Buy Bills TicketsThat included a 53-yard bomb from QB Josh Allen to WR Stefon Diggs in the fourth quarter for a TD in Buffalo’s final scoring drive of the day.
The @BuffaloBills had a 21-point margin of victory against the @RamsNFL last night, the second largest in a season opener against a defending Super Bowl champion in @NFL history. @JoshAllenQB and @stefondiggs lit up the field including this 53-yard play for a TD 👇 pic.twitter.com/TQZMTp5Slu
— NFL Football Operations (@NFLFootballOps) September 9, 2022
The second half didn’t start with such a sizable lead, however, as the teams were tied with 10 points apiece by halftime.
“I was actually happy at halftime,” Allen said to the media following the win. “Three turnovers and going in 10-10 — zero to zero — that gave us all the confidence in the world, our defense being able to back us up. We hurt ourselves a lot in that first half. There’s a lot to learn from. But that second half, that’s who we want to be, going out there and executing the way we expect to execute.”
In addition to racking up the lead on the scoreboard and holding the Rams to no points in the second half, the Bills also converted on nine of 10 third downs in the game to keep offensive drives moving.
And Allen was quick to recognize Dorsey
“I think Coach Dorsey called a heckuva game,” he added. “It’s his first live action. So I’m proud of him for handling those situations how he did. We were 90% on third down. That’s a recipe for success.”
So what was the difference in the offense between halves one and two? WR Stefon Diggs weighed in on just that, pointing to Dorsey’s coaching as the catalyst.
“He came in at halftime and he understood that we couldn’t ride the roller coaster, there was going to be ebbs and flows to the game,” Diggs said during his press session. “He did some great things when he came in the locker room and calmed us down and said stop shooting ourselves in the foot.”
Dorsey rolled out a diverse variety of personnel packages during the contest to successful results, as the Bills bested the defending Super Bowl champs in convincing fashion.
The vote of confidence from the team’s two offensive stars in their coordinator speaks volumes, as Diggs continued to affirm the coach.
“He didn’t look half bad today.”

How cruel bullies are targeting 'vulnerable' teens with TikTok pages that reveal the school's 'most cringiest' kids and 'secrets' about their sexual activities
- Victorian students targeting 'vulnerable' kids with cruel 'rumour pages'
- Primary school students asked to rate the 'cringiest' kids on social media sites
- Pages include rumours about alleged OnlyFans accounts and even pregnancies
- Kids are invited to share their information about students to creators of the sites
Cruel cyberbullies are taking to social media to target their classmates with vile rumours about their sex lives as they urge others to cast votes on the 'cringiest' kids in school.
Teenagers from several schools across Victoria are participating in 'rumour pages' that ask members to share private information about their fellow students.
Posts on the TikTok and Instagram pages include baseless rumours about alleged OnlyFan accounts, pregnancies, cheating scandals and even teachers.
Younger students are also taking part, with pupils from Geelong East Primary School asked to vote on who they thought were the 'cringiest' kids in their year.

Younger students are also taking part, with pupils from Geelong East Primary School (pictured) asked to cast their vote on who they thought were the 'cringiest' in their year
Gossip pages started by Rosehill Secondary College students have taken it even further by revealing who has 'a fat ass' and who is 'really hot'.
Students from Orbost Secondary College, a co-ed school in East Gippsland, are using social media sites to swap 'secrets' on students sexual activities.
A mother with two children at one of the colleges involved said enough is enough.
'The bullying has gone on for far too long and the school needs to be on top of this issue more,' she told the Herald Sun.
'There are so many students that are already targeted for no reason at school, but then to come home and have to deal with it on social media is just dreadful.'
A TikTok spokeswoman in a statement said the platform's top priority is to 'maintain a safe and positive environment for our community'.
'There is no place on our platform for hate, bullying or harassment, or any hateful behaviour that targets individuals,' the statement said.
'Our Community Guidelines clearly state that we do not tolerate this type of behaviour and will proactively remove content that violates any community guidelines.'
A Department of Education spokesman said schools take strong action against bullying with perpetrators to be punished and students impacted supported.
'Social media providers have a critical role to play in preventing the publication of content that promotes bullying – and we are continuing to raise this issue with the platforms directly,' the spokesman said.
Victorian state schools are encouraged to follow direction from the department's initiative 'Bully Stoppers' which defines cyberbullying as 'bullying using digital technologies including mobile phones, email and social media tools'.
Students are told cyberbullying includes the creation of 'hate pages' or 'social exclusion campaigns' on social networking sites.

A TikTok spokeswoman said: TikTok's top priority is to maintain a safe and positive environment for our community'
Victims of cyberbullying are advised to keep a record of abusive messages and accept their online attackers are 'cowards' hiding behind a screen.
'Some cyberbullies 'troll' or play 'the baiting game',' the advice says.
'A provocative comment is made and those who respond in irritation are encouraged to engage in conflict with those who respond assertively.'
It comes as a global study revealed cyberbullying has a worse impact on its young teenage victims than 'traditional' bullying in person.
Researchers from the US and Israel analysed data collected on over 10,000 US children between the ages of 10 and 13 between July 2018 and January 2021 for the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development study (ABCD Study).

They found victims of online bullying in early adolescence are more likely to report suicidal thoughts and attempts than those who have experienced bullying offline
The suicide rate in children has been steadily increasing, and in 2018 it became the second leading cause of death of people aged between 10 and 24 in the US, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
While the factors contributing to the worrying trend are not fully understood, the increase in cyberbullying is thought to be a factor.
Of the children who took part in the study, 7.6 per cent said they had experienced suicidal thoughts or acts, 8.9 per cent reported being targets of cyberbullying, and 0.9 per cent said they had bullied others.
If you or anyone you know is in need of confidential 24-hour support in Australia call Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Kids Helpline on 1800 55 1800.

Allgeier (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
Though the rookie fifth-round pick out of BYU sits third on the Falcons' depth chart at running back, he won't be active Week 1 behind starter Cordarrelle Patterson and top backup Damien Williams. Instead, converted defensive back Avery Williams will get the nod over Allgeier as Atlanta's No. 3 back, presumably due to Williams' status as the Falcons' top return man. Before Allgeier gets an opportunity to dress on game days, he may need one of Patterson or Williams to miss time.

CHICAGO (AP) — San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle is inactive for Sunday's game at the Chicago Bears because of a groin injury.
Kittle got hurt during a light practice on Monday. He was listed as questionable on Saturday's injury report.
Kittle's injury means second-year quarterback Trey Lance will be without one of his top targets in his third career start. The 28-year-old Kittle also is a key part of San Francisco's running game as one of the better blocking tight ends in the league.
Kittle has been hampered by injuries in recent years. He missed three games with a calf injury last season, eight games in 2020 with injuries to his knee and foot, and three games in 2019 with a groin injury.
Kittle had 71 catches for 910 yards and six touchdowns in 14 games last season. His 335 catches since entering the league in 2017 rank third among all tight ends in that span and he is second with 4,489 yards receiving.
With Kittle out, the Niners could turn to Charlie Woerner, Ross Dwelley or Tyler Kroft at tight end. All three players were active for the season opener.

50 Cent And The Game Trade Shots After Super Bowl Halftime Show Wins Emmy
It seems one of Hip-Hop’s most infamous beefs is back on. 50 Cent and The Game recently traded shots over the Super Bowl Halftime Show winning an Emmy Award.
As per Complex the former G-Unit soldiers are once again on opposite sides. Last week the memorable performance, which featured Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, Kendrick Lamar, and Eminem, won three awards at the 2022 Creative Arts Emmys. The wins included Outstanding Variety Special (Live), Outstanding Music Direction, and Outstanding Production Design For A Variety. After it was announced 50 took to social media to humbly brag. “I just won my Emmy award [clapping emojis] for the super bowl half time show. LOL,” he wrote. From there, 50 sent stray shots at the Game, posting and deleting a pic of the Compton rapper with a caption that read, “No caption needed.”

It seems he couldn’t not resist the prime opportunity to be petty. In signature fashion he took this time to take a shot at his former signee by posting a photo of Game with the caption reading “No caption needed.” The “One Blood” rapper quick shot back with his own post featuring the infamous and super zesty photo of Fif wearing a sleeveless shirt and his tie floating in mid air. “No caption needed “#SpicyAssN***a #whatYoEyeBrowDoin? #yoTieBlowingInTheWindLol” he wrote. Later on that day Curtis responded with his historic laughing GIF from Entourage . “Oh no, i’m sorry you don’t get one. “Then the first week 18k, if you need someone to talk to i’m here for you. LOL.”

Visa, Mastercard, AmEx to start categorizing gun shop sales
NEW YORK (AP) — Payment processor Visa Inc. said Saturday that it plans to start separately categorizing sales at gun shops, a major win for gun control advocates who say it will help better track suspicious surges of gun sales that could be a prelude to a mass shooting.
But the decision by Visa, the world's largest payment processor, will likely provoke the ire of gun rights advocates and gun lobbyists, who have argued that categorizing gun sales would unfairly flag an industry when most sales do not lead to mass shootings. It joins Mastercard and American Express, which also said they plan to move forward with categorizing gun shop sales.
Visa said it would adopt the International Organization for Standardization’s new merchant code for gun sales, which was announced on Friday. Until Friday, gun store sales were considered “general merchandise.”
“Following ISO’s decision to establish a new merchant category code, Visa will proceed with next steps, while ensuring we protect all legal commerce on the Visa network in accordance with our long-standing rules,” the payment processor said in a statement.
Visa’s adoption is significant as the largest payment network, and with Mastercard and AmeEx, will likely put pressure on the banks as the card issuers to adopt the standard as well. Visa acts as a middleman between merchants and banks, and it will be up to banks to decide whether they will allow sales at gun stores to happen on their issued cards.
Gun control advocates had gained significant wins on this front in recent weeks. New York City officials and pension funds had pressured the ISO and banks to adopt this code.
Two of the country's largest public pension funds, in California and New York, have been pressing the country's largest credit card firms to establish sales codes specifically for firearm-related sales that could flag suspicious purchases or more easily trace how guns and ammunition are sold.
Merchant category codes now exist for almost every kind of purchase, including those made at supermarkets, clothing stores, coffee shops and many other retailers.
“When you buy an airline ticket or pay for your groceries, your credit card company has a special code for those retailers. It’s just common sense that we have the same policies in place for gun and ammunition stores,” said New York City Mayor Eric Adams, a former police captain who blames the proliferation of guns for his city's deadly violence.
The city's comptroller, Brad Lander, said it made moral and financial sense as a tool to push back against gun violence.
“Unfortunately, the credit card companies have failed to support this simple, practical, potentially lifesaving tool. The time has come for them to do so," Lander said recently, before Visa and others had adopted the move.
Lander is a trustee of the New York City Employees’ Retirement System, Teachers’ Retirement System and Board of Education Retirement System — which together own 667,200 shares in American Express valued at approximately $92.49 million; 1.1 million shares in MasterCard valued at approximately $347.59 million; and 1.85 million shares in Visa valued at approximately $363.86 million.
The pension funds and gun control advocates argue that creating a merchant category code for standalone firearm and ammunition stores could aid in the battle against gun violence. A week before the mass shooting at the Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, Florida, where 49 people died after a shooter opened fire in 2016, the assailant used credit cards to buy more than $26,000 worth of guns and ammunition, including purchases at a stand-alone gun retailer.
Gun rights advocates argue that tracking sales at gun stores would unfairly target legal gun purchases, since merchant codes just track the type of merchant where the credit or debit card is used, not the actual items purchased. A sale of a gun safe, worth thousands of dollars and an item considered part of responsible gun ownership, could be seen as a just a large purchase at a gun shop.
“The (industry's) decision to create a firearm specific code is nothing more than a capitulation to anti-gun politicians and activists bent on eroding the rights of law-abiding Americans one transaction at a time,” said Lars Dalseide, a spokesman for the National Rifle Association.
Over the years, public pension funds have used their extensive investment portfolios to influence public policy and the market place.
The California teacher's fund, the second largest pension fund in the country, has long taken aim on the gun industry. It has divested its holdings from gun manufacturers and has sought to persuade some retailers from selling guns.
Four years ago, the teacher's fund made guns a key initiative. It called for background checks and called on retailers “monitor irregularities at the point of sale, to record all firearm sales, to audit firearms inventory on a regular basis, and to proactively assist law enforcement.”

PALM BEACH, Fla. (WFLA) — A Florida boy who went missing Saturday afternoon has been found dead, according to authorities.
Dahud Jolicoeur, 5, disappeared from his home in Palm Beach County at around 5 p.m., according to WPTV.
Hours later, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement said Dahud died from a “possible drowning” early Sunday morning.
“We extend our condolences to Dahud’s family, friends and the Palm Beach County community,” the department said.
According to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, the 5-year-old was found dead in a waterway a block from his home.
Before the boy was found, deputies said Dahud was autistic, non-verbal, and couldn’t swim.

Ex-Sen. Al Franken says Senate GOP 'destroyed' the legitimacy of the Supreme Court: 'They've stolen two seats'
Former Sen. Al Franken said Senate Republicans "undermined" the legitimacy of the Supreme Court.
Franken pointed to McConnell's refusal to hold hearings for Garland and Barrett's 2020 nomination.
In a recent speech, Chief Justice John Roberts spoke out in defense of the high court's legitimacy.
Former Sen. Al Franken on Saturday said that Republicans in the upper chamber "destroyed" the legitimacy of the Supreme Court by refusing to hold a hearing for onetime nominee Merrick Garland and by installing Amy Coney Barrett to the high court only weeks before the 2020 presidential election.
During a CNN segment alongside Republican strategist Alice Stewart, the ex-Minnesota lawmaker told anchor Jim Acosta that he disagreed with Chief Justice John Roberts' recent remarks that citizens shouldn't question the legitimacy of the court simply because of rulings that they may disagree with, with the jurist arguing that the court isn't guided by politics.
And Franken pointed to onetime Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky as a leading culprit in the decline of the public's perception of the court.
"The legitimacy of the court was undermined when they [Senate Republicans] wouldn't take up Merrick Garland and you'll remember that McConnell said it was because it was during an election year," he said. "You remember [Sen.] Lindsey Graham pledging that if a vacancy came open during an election year in 2020, then they wouldn't take up a nominee?"
He continued: "They've stolen two seats — the one that Merrick Garland wasn't given a hearing for and the one where [Amy] Coney Barrett was seated a week before the election. That destroyed the legitimacy of the court."
—Sarah Reese Jones (@PoliticusSarah) September 10, 2022
In 2016, McConnell blocked then-President Barack Obama's nomination of Garland to replace conservative Associate Justice Antonin Scalia, who had passed away in February of that year, by refusing to consider hearings for the well-known jurist. McConnell made his decision on the grounds that the next president should make the selection if a vacancy occurred in an election year.
After Republican Donald Trump defeated former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election, Trump would go on to nominate conservative jurist Neil Gorsuch to replace Scalia.
Shortly after Associate Justice Anthony Kennedy announced his retirement from the court ahead of the 2018 midterms, Trump tapped Judge Brett Kavanaugh to replace him. Kavanaugh was narrowly confirmed (50-48) by the Senate.
And in September 2020, the liberal stalwart Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away, with Trump quickly nominating conservative jurist Amy Coney Barrett to replace her on the court. Democrats railed against a Supreme Court nomination so close to the election, pointing to the Republican Party's refusal to consider Garland's nomination just four years before.
Barrett was eventually confirmed (52-48) less than two weeks before the election contest between Trump and now-President Joe Biden. (Garland went on to be nominated by Biden to become Attorney General; he was easily confirmed by the Senate and also received the backing of McConnell.)
Trump's judicial picks gave the Supreme Court a 6-3 conservative majority, and this past June, the court voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, upending nearly 50 years of precedent on abortion rights in the United States.
Franken — a "Saturday Night Live" writer and cast member from the 1970s through the 1990s — was first elected to the Senate in 2008 and was reelected in 2014, but stepped down from office in January 2018 after facing allegations of sexual misconduct.

Bellator MMA 259: Cyborg vs. Smith Main Card:
- c-Cris Cyborg (24-2, 1 NC) defeated #4-Leslie Smith (12-9-1) via TKO (strikes) at 4:51 of round five
Cris Cyborg after retaining the title:
“I knew she was tough and I’ve fought her before. I know her and respect her and she’s a real fighter. I knew with her it would be a great match, because she’s capable and she’s tough.”
“I was really working in sparring to keep going and going because I knew it was going to be this way. I noticed I enjoyed it a little more. It’s going to be 16 years as a professional fighter this month so I started to enjoy it in there.” “I’ve been working on grappling my whole life but I just feel like I’m getting better and better every day. I got a black belt, but it’s like a white belt because I’m always learning.”
“I’ve been doing this 16 years, I’ve got four titles. But before you can be a G.O.A.T. you have to fight the ‘Cat.’ So, I’d like to fight with Cat Zingano and I will ask Scott Coker. Because before you can be a G.O.A.T. you have to fight the ‘Cat.’”
- #6-Leandro Higo (20-5) defeated Darrion Caldwell (15-5) via split decision (29-28, 28-29, 29-28)
“I’ve been waiting for this fight for three years now. It’s exactly how I wanted it to go. I used my wrestling and I used my jiu-jitsu. I’m a complete fighter and I’m ready for any fighter on the planet because I believe I’m the best. I knew I had lost the first round, but in the second when he was throwing all those elbows and cut me open, I’m from a poor family in Brazil and that was nothing I hadn’t seen before. I felt happy being in that cage with blood all over me.
“He ended up taking me down in the second and I went for a kimura, which is something I’m very accustomed to doing, but he reversed it but then he didn’t do anything and I hit him with a lot of strikes on bottom. A lot of elbows and strikes and I stayed very on bottom and he wasn’t doing anything. That’s why I won the second and third round.”
“I think that I deserve a title shot. I just beat three of the biggest names in the game and I just beat a former world champion. And nobody has beaten the top three guys of this world-class caliber like I have done in three consecutive wins. I’m going for that world title and that’s what’s next for me. So let’s make it fast.”
- #3-Austin Vanderford (11-0) defeated #4-Fabian Edwards (9-2) via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)
Austin Vanderford following his unanimous decision win:
“I like my fights bloody, whether it’s me or my opponent. I’ll get a scab. But hats off to Fabian who cut me up a little bit. But happy to get the win.”
“He was a big, strong guy. I started feeling him give me that head and arm choke. Unfortunately, I didn’t capitalize on it. But I knew what I was going to do. I was going to just grind it out. He’s a good striker so I had to be careful but I felt good. Wrestling … it’s my heart. I’m ready for the next step.”
- Jaleel Willis (15-2) defeated Maycon Mendonca (11-5) via unanimous decision (29-28, 30-27, 30-27)
- Hannah Guy (3-1) defeated #8-Valerie Loureda (3-1) via unanimous decision (30-27, 29-28, 29-28)
Hannah Guy following her first win inside the BELLATOR cage…
“I felt like I had really good cardio, so that was awesome because I was really worried about that a little bit. I’m so thankful she took the fight and I’m so thankful BELLATOR gave me this opportunity.
“I thought I was going to finish with the triangle (choke), honestly. She just slipped right out of there, so that was awesome of her. Her defense was really good. I was really impressed with that. I didn’t know what her ground game was but it was a lot better than I thought it was going to be.
“Grappling is just where I want to be if you’ve seen any of my other fights. My striking has really improved a lot though so I’m hoping to change that. But grappling has always been my strong suit. I didn’t want to just depend on my grappling, but I thought I landed some shots pretty well a few times. In this fight I thought I could see when the punches were coming. And I was able to defend a little bit better and how I’ve grown. So I’m just really proud of myself right now.”
Preliminary Card:
- Saad Awad (24-13, 1 NC) defeated Nate Andrews (16-4) via KO (strikes) at 3:16 of round one

The former British colony gained its independence from the United Kingdom in 1981 but is one of 14 countries to retain the British monarch as head of state. It is also a part of the Commonwealth, a 54-member organization of mostly former British territories.
After confirming King Charles III as the King of Antigua and Barbuda on Saturday, Prime Minister Gaston Browne told
ITV News that he planned on holding a referendum on whether the country becomes a republic in the next three years.
“This is a matter that has to be taken to a referendum for the people to decide,” he said, adding that it is not mean to “represent any form of disrespect to the monarch. This is not an act of hostility, or any difference between Antigua and Barbuda and the monarchy.”
He explained that it would be “a final step to complete the circle of independence to become a truly sovereign nation.”

Watch: Le’Veon Bell knocks out Adrian Peterson in boxing match originally appeared on NBC Sports Washington

The 2012 NFL MVP squared off against a fellow free agent running back in Le’Veon Bell in an exhibition at a Social Gloves Entertainment event in Los Angeles. The match reached a decisive fifth round, at which point Bell knocked Peterson out:

Peterson was wobbly getting up, and the official called the match with Bell coming out on top.
“I appreciate everybody's love and support, for real,” Bell said following the event. “That's really what kept me going. Honestly, all the hate ... that motivates me.”
Bell said he plans to pursue a career in boxing and has put football behind him. Peterson, meanwhile, has maintained that he hopes to play in the NFL this season.
Sports
Based on the result from Saturday’s fight, both of them seem to be making reasonable choices to chase their respective sports.

The Bears went back in front went Carson Baker threw an 18-yard TD pass to Alfonzo Graham fewer than 3 minutes later but Pigrome connected again with Street, this time for a 28-yard score that gave Towson a 26-21 lead going into the fourth quarter.

Philippines Seeks To Block ICC Prosecutor From Probing Drug-War Deaths Under Duterte
By BenarNews
By Jeoffrey Maitem
The new government in the Philippines asked the International Criminal Court on Thursday to not resume its investigation into former President Rodrigo Duterte and his drug war that killed thousands of Filipinos.
In June, ICC top prosecutor Karim Khan filed a motion with the court’s pre-trial chamber to resume its probe of Duterte’s war on illegal narcotics, from 2011 to 2019. The period encompasses Duterte’s first three years as president and the five previous years when he served as vice mayor and mayor of Davao, his hometown in the south.
The Philippines officially left the ICC in 2019, a year after Duterte withdrew the country’s ratification of the Rome Statute, the international treaty which created the court based in The Hague.
On Thursday, the office of the Solicitor General Menardo Guevarra said it had transmitted the country’s reply on the “alleged crimes against humanity” by the Duterte administration via the Philippine embassy to the Netherlands.
“The Philippine government explained to the ICC Pre-Trial Chamber the extent of the drug problem in the Philippines and the process of investigating and prosecuting drug-related offenses under the Philippine legal and judicial system,” Guevarra’s office said in a statement.
The solicitor general said the “ICC has no jurisdiction over the situation in the Philippines” and argued that the killings “do not constitute ‘crimes against humanity’ considering that said incidents do not qualify as an ‘attack’ against the civilian population.’’
About 8,000 suspected addicts and dealers died during the Duterte administration’s drug war, according to official government numbers, but human rights groups have said the figure could be three times higher. An internal investigation by the justice department last year said that in many cases, police officers involved in the killings did not follow protocol and could be prosecuted.
“The Philippine government emphasized that the complaints filed before the ICC are already being investigated and prosecuted by the proper agencies and that the state is neither unwilling nor unable to carry out these domestic proceedings,” the solicitor general said.
Guevarra’s office also submitted a progress report on its investigations.
Previously, Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla said the Philippines would respond to the ICC out of courtesy only.
On Aug. 1, Ferdinand Marcos Jr., the Philippines’ new president, refused calls from human rights groups for the country to rejoin the ICC, saying the country could conduct its own investigations into deaths related to his predecessor’s drug war.
Marcos succeeded Duterte, whose daughter, Sara Duterte, serves as vice president. Observers and analysts have said that with their victories in the May general election, the former president is guaranteed protection despite losing immunity.
After Duterte withdrew the Philippines from the ICC, he attacked the court as being “utilized as a tool against the Philippines” to paint a bad picture of his administration’s efforts to rid the country of drug dealers and drug addiction.
Meanwhile on Thursday, Human Rights Watch questioned the government’s efforts to investigate and end the war on drugs.
“Since the Philippines first sought a halt to the prosecutor’s investigation last November, Human Rights Watch has monitored the situation and found no compelling evidence that the government was seriously investigating these cases, let alone prosecuting those responsible,” said Carlos Conde, a senior HRW researcher in the Philippines.
“In fact, the killings are continuing and impunity for police officers and others implicated in these abuses by all accounts remains intact,” he said in a statement.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — An alligator, drugs, guns and money were seized during a raid at two homes in Albuquerque last month, but New Mexico wildlife officials said Saturday they are still searching for a young tiger they believe is being illegally kept as a pet.
Investigators think the tiger is with someone “in New Mexico or a nearby state,” New Mexico Department of Game and Fish conservation officers said in a statement
The animal was believed to be less than 1 year old and weigh under 60 pounds (27 kilograms), but tigers can grow to 600 pounds (272 kilograms), the department said, calling large meat-eating animals such as tigers and alligators a clear danger to the public.
Wild tigers are listed globally as an endangered species. Alligators were listed as endangered in the U.S. from 1967 to 1987, but today thrive in the wild.
The alligator seized by authorities is about 3 feet (almost 1 meter) long. It was taken to a wildlife facility after state conservation officers and federal, state and local police served search warrants Aug. 12.
Albuquerque police reported a 26-year-old man was arrested and investigators seized 2 pounds (0.9 kilograms) of heroin, 10.5 pounds (4.75 kilograms) of cocaine, 49 pounds (22 kilograms) of marijuana, 17 rifles and pistols, fentanyl and Xanax pills, and nearly $42,000.

When it comes to Queen Elizabeth II, it is the marmalade sandwich I will always remember.
For those who never saw the video she made with an animated Paddington Bear that was released during her Platinum Jubilee in June, now is the time to watch it on YouTube. Watching Paddington tip his hat and thank the queen “for everything” (after she has just pulled a marmalade sandwich from her purse to show him) was incredibly touching.
But, when the two then began to clink their spoons on their teacups in tune with the ongoing celebrations outside Buckingham Palace, it was a reminder that, underneath her fabled sense of duty, Elizabeth was also human. No scriptwriter could have produced the twinkle in her eye and the clear enjoyment she showed alongside her bearish companion.
Queen Elizabeth was a rock, the world leader who was there for our entire lives, from post-World War II through the end of the imperial era through the Cold War and the Unipolar U.S. Moment up until our current Age of Uncertainty. That is what makes her long-expected passing at age 96 still so shocking to absorb.
People are also reading…
But it was those flashes of humor, those rare hints of deeper emotions (sometimes reflected in the colors of her outfits) that made her such a compelling figure. The world seems even more unstable now that she is gone.
There was something incredibly reassuring about having the same queen in England even as dictators were toppled, presidents were defeated by voters, civil wars raged in the Mideast, and prime ministers rose and fell in Britain.
When one turned on the morning news to learn what new tragedies had befallen Ukraine, what right-wing pols were gaining strength in Europe, or how many farmers had died in Pakistani floods, there was one thing you could be sure of: Queen Elizabeth was still there.
Even when her family became the stuff of soap operas, she almost always rose above the drama. Her biggest mistake was taking too long to acknowledge the intense public distress over the death of Princess Diana in 1997, which generated immense public criticism. But her commonsense antennae kicked in and she rectified the damage during Diana’s funeral by bringing the family outside Buckingham Palace and bowing to Diana’s casket as the cortege passed by.
The queen was also the global exemplar of values that seem to have long ago gone out of fashion: devotion to duty and country and traditions in the best sense, not as attributes that are claimed exclusively by one race or political party. “I declare before you all that my whole life whether it be long or short shall be devoted to your service,” she told Britons on her 21st birthday in 1947, when she was still a princess.
So, if the world is bereft by the loss of Elizabeth the Great Stabilizer, the impact on Britain will be far more destabilizing. Already, British commentators are stunned at the fact that, after 70 years, the lyrics to the national anthem must change from “God Save the Queen” to “God Save the King,” Charles III. And the faces on British coinage and postage stamps must also be redone.
As for Charles, there is no way he can live up to his mother’s 70-year example. One can only wish him good luck.
Queen Elizabeth “was the rock on which modern Britain was built,” said new British Prime Minister Liz Truss, in front of 10 Downing Street, after the queen’s passing. Poor Truss only got the traditional permission to form a government on Tuesday — from the ill queen at Balmoral Castle in Scotland. The queen, as always, did her duty, despite her poor health.
Now Truss, not a popular political figure, faces the huge challenges of inflation, soaring energy prices, economic malaise and the consequences of a hard Brexit that she championed — all as the country is going through a period of mourning.
The queen had hinted obliquely (she did not do politics openly) that she did not favor Brexit and hoped for close relations with Europe. In 2018, she told the king and queen of the Netherlands that Britain was looking “toward a new partnership with Europe” and that Britain’s shared values with Europe were “our greatest asset.”
Unfortunately, Truss’ tough anti-EU positions spell trouble for future trade relations and could provoke new troubles in Northern Ireland, threatening the 1988 Good Friday accord between Northern Irish Protestants and Catholics.
That would be a tragedy, and it brings me to what I believe was one of Queen Elizabeth’s finest moments.
That moment came with the queen’s historic handshake in Belfast in June 2012 with former top IRA commander Martin McGuinness, then deputy first minister of Northern Ireland, in an amazing moment of reconciliation at which the monarch wore an emerald green outfit. The moment was even more stunning because McGuinness was a top official of the IRA when the organization killed the queen’s beloved cousin, Lord Louis Mountbatten, in a bomb blast in 1979.
It was a reminder that Queen Elizabeth was not only a rock for Britain and the world, but possessed keen diplomatic skills that were not always apparent. Her death is another reminder that we are heading into very uncertain times.

Five youth killed in car crash in Una
Dharamshala Five people were killed when the car in which they were travelling fell into fields after hitting a pole at Kuthar Kalan village near district headquarters Una on Sunday
Dharamshala Five people were killed when the car in which they were travelling fell into fields after hitting a pole at Kuthar Kalan village near district headquarters Una on Sunday.
The accident happened around 12:30 am. The deceased have been identified as Rajan Jaswal and Amal, residents of Saloh village in Haroli subdivision, Vishal Chaudhary of Majara village in Una subdivision, Simranjit Singh from Hazipur in Rupnagar district of Punjab and Anup Singh hailing from Jhalera village in Una.
The victims are said to be associated with Youth Congress.
Una superintendent of police (SP) Arjit Sen Thakur said the car, bearing a Punjab registration number, hit a communication pole before skidding off the road.
A police team rushed to the spot after receiving the information. Police found two people dead on the spot, while others were rushed to the Regional Hospital, Una, where they succumbed to the injuries during treatment, the SP said. He said prima facie it seems speeding was the cause of the accident.
He said a case of rash and negligent driving and causing death by negligence has been registered and investigations are underway to know the exact cause of the accident.
Meanwhile, chief minister Jai Ram Thakur expressed grief over the loss of lives in the accident. He prayed to the almighty to grant peace to the departed souls and strength to the family members to bear the loss. He also assured all possible help to the families of the deceased. It is worth mentioning that the state has recorded a total of 331 deaths this monsoon season since June 29, of which 171 people have been killed in road accidents.

Leeds target Raul de Tomas is edging closer to a move to Rayo Vallecano which could end his World Cup dream.
De Tomas had been linked with a move to Leeds during the summer transfer window, but a move failed to materialise.
Now, according to Marca, De Tomas is close to agreeing a move to sign for Rayo Vallecano.
However, as the transfer window is closed, his new club will be unable to register him, meaning he will not be able to feature until January, all but ending his hopes of playing for Spain at the World Cup.

Queen Elizabeth II's corgis to live with the Duke and Duchess of York
Queen Elizabeth II's corgis will live with the Duke and Duchess of York, Andrew and Sarah, a source close to the Duke of York told CNN on Sunday.
The pair, who divorced in 1996, both reside at the Royal Lodge on the Windsor estate.
The source told CNN that the Duchess bonded with the monarch over a shared love of dog-walking and horse-riding.
Even after her divorce from Prince Andrew, Sarah continued her friendship with the Queen by walking dogs through the Windsor estate, the source added.
The Queen, who died Thursday at the age of 96, is reported to have had four dogs, two of whom are Pembroke Welsh corgis, Muick and Sandy.
She is also reported to have left behind an older, mixed breed "dorgi" called Candy and a cocker spaniel named Lissy. It is unclear who will be looking after Candy and Lissy.
Corgis have become synonymous with the monarch, who throughout her long life was regularly photographed with a Welsh corgi at her feet.
The Queen was often credited with creating the dorgi breed when her corgi mated with a dachshund owned by her sister, Princess Margaret.
The Queen's passion for corgis dated back to her childhood, when she fell in love with her father King George VI's dog, Dookie. In 1944, on her 18th birthday, she was given a Pembroke Welsh corgi puppy named Susan. Such was her attachment to Susan, she reportedly took her on her honeymoon in 1947. Susan died in January 1959.

The monarch went on to own dozens of corgis in her lifetime. One, Willow, famously appeared alongside her in the James Bond sketch that she recorded for the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics.
When Willow was put to sleep at the age of 14, the Queen lost the last descendant of her original corgi, Susan. According to Reader's Digest, the Queen had a fondness for corgis because of their "energy and untamed spirit."
Prince Andrew stepped back from public duties in 2019 following a firestorm of criticism over an interview about his association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Earlier this year, he paid a settlement to sexual abuse accuser Virginia Giuffre, according to her attorney, and a U.S. district judge agreed to dismiss her lawsuit against the Duke of York.
The prince has repeatedly denied wrongdoing. Still, the allegations against Andrew, 62, have dramatically tarnished his public standing.

The mystique of royalty in our age of republican modernity
4 min read . 10:37 PM ISTQueen Elizabeth II’s demise was a reminder of monarchy’s appeal
Queen Elizabeth II’s demise was a reminder of monarchy’s appeal
On my first day in London 25 years ago, the tragic news broke that Princess Diana died in a car crash in Paris. The public outpouring that followed showed how the monarchy is so often a focal point for conversation on what it means to be British. The death of Queen Elizabeth II is not wholly unexpected or tragic. But a quarter-century later, I’m more alive to its significance in my adopted country. Like so many major events she took part in over 7 decades on the British throne, her succession will no doubt be flawlessly executed. And yet, as anyone who’s lost a family member knows, no one is really prepared.
On my first day in London 25 years ago, the tragic news broke that Princess Diana died in a car crash in Paris. The public outpouring that followed showed how the monarchy is so often a focal point for conversation on what it means to be British. The death of Queen Elizabeth II is not wholly unexpected or tragic. But a quarter-century later, I’m more alive to its significance in my adopted country. Like so many major events she took part in over 7 decades on the British throne, her succession will no doubt be flawlessly executed. And yet, as anyone who’s lost a family member knows, no one is really prepared.
That applies on a grand scale here. From the moment the prime minister is told “London Bridge is down", a whole series of plans is activated. The country will talk of little else for days ahead. But neither the royal family nor the UK knows what it will be like to have a new monarch. You can’t visit Britain without noticing you are in a kingdom. Stamps and paper currency bear the queen’s portrait and countless places bear “Royal" names . Even so, my younger self couldn’t grasp how one person could come to embody a nation’s view of itself. For an American, it all sits oddly apart from modern notions of democracy. The hereditary principle is anathema to the American sense of meritocracy. So was the idea of a head of state who is also head of church.

For an American, it all sits oddly apart from modern notions of democracy. The hereditary principle is anathema to the American sense of meritocracy. So was the idea of a head of state who is also head of church.
And yet, I get it. Becoming British has meant working toward an understanding of things that come naturally to the native-born. The other lesson I gleaned from my early days living in the UK was that while the queen’s role is ceremonial, there is no neat dividing line between palace and politics. The queen may stay out of politics, but as former US ambassador to Britain Raymond Seitz, a keen observer of Britain, wrote, “when that little arch of reservation rises on the royal brow, a silent shudder runs through Whitehall."
After Diana’s death, a new prime minister made a statement that captured the public mood, crowning her “the people’s princess." Tony Blair’s popularity hit 93%, considered a record of a democratic politician. The queen, by many accounts following his lead, opened up too, showing a monarchy that could adapt to a changing time.
The great British essayist Walter Bagehot warned that the light should not be allowed in on this rich tapestry of convention and ceremony. The trick of the monarchy is its mystique; its distance from ordinary people serves to bring elected government closer to them. The monarch’s role, he said, could be vaguely defined as “to warn, to encourage, to be consulted." Like the rule of law in the absence of a written constitution, this nuance may feel odd to the non-Brit.
What makes this succession poignant and its effect unpredictable is the combination of the former queen’s personal brand and the historic moment that Britain finds itself in. She may have inherited a crown, but the admiration was earned. This arose from her relentless service, but also the values she lived by—decency, duty, spiritual devotion, love of nature, loyalty to family and country. Hers is an impossible act to follow for Charles, her heir and now king. He is happily remarried to Camilla, the woman at the heart of his marriage breakup with Diana. Those wounds at least have healed, but his family is still reeling from the public falling-out of his two sons, William and Harry. With the queen gone, it will be on Charles to create a sense of stability and continuity, but just stopping the sense of decay would be a start.
The queen’s death represents a moment of vulnerability but also opportunity. Although support for the monarchy is strong overall in Britain, with about 62% of Britons in favour, it’s weakest among young people; only a third of 18- to 24-year-olds see the point. “If the monarchy is to thrive, it must keep telling a story that engages people," wrote historian Alex von Tunzelmann. “This does not mean it should modernize. Its appeal may lie in reiterating that sense of tradition, benevolence and duty that the Queen has channelled so well."
The royal succession will also be a test of another new PM, Liz Truss, whose handling of the response will be broadcast around the world. Days of remembrance will dwarf talk of the country’s energy crisis, the flailing National Health Service, the war in Ukraine and pretty much all other news. But only temporarily. The queen has passed away at a time when Britain’s fourth-straight Conservative government is redefining its role in the world after Brexit, trying to hold a fraying union together and confronting the biggest economic crunch since the financial crisis. The pound, as if asking the question, is at its lowest level since 1985.
Some 2.5 billion people watched Diana’s funeral. This change of guard is being watched too, whether people get the implications, or, like me after all these years, are still piecing it together.

Police in Colorado identify officer killed in the line of duty, suspect in custody
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Police in Colorado have identified an officer killed in the line of duty early Sunday.
Officer Dillon Vakoff, 27, was killed while responding to a large family disturbance call. When officers arrived, they found a “chaotic scene with multiple people in the street,” the Arvada Police Department said.
The initial two officers tried to separate several belligerent and uncooperative individuals when the suspect began to fire a weapon, shooting a female victim.
An exchange of gunfire between officers and the suspect ensued, when Vakoff was struck and killed.

“The second officer on scene attempted to rescue his friend and colleague and provide first aid,” police said in a news release.
Vakoff was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.
The suspect, who has not been identified, was also shot during the exchange of gunfire. He was taken to a hospital, where he remains in police custody. He is expected to survive.
The female victim was transported to a hospital and is also expected to survive. Her involvement in the incident is unknown at this time.
POLICE OFFICER KILLS MAN HOLDING WEAPON ON COLORADO INTERSTATE
Vakoff had been with the police department since 2019.
“Dillion is an example of everything good you would want in a police officer. He was training toward being a SWAT Officer, and without a doubt would have continued to have a positive impact on his community,” the release states.

Prior to serving the Arvada Police Department, Vakoff was a staff sergeant in the United States Air Force, where he served for six years. Vakoff was an Arvada resident who graduated from Ralston Valley High School in 2012.
“This is a tragic loss to this community, to this department, but most significantly to his family and loved ones. His service and sacrifice will never be forgotten,” the news release said.

Chris Christie: DOJ’s chances of succeeding in challenge of special master in Trump case ‘pretty good’
Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) on Sunday said the Department of Justice (DOJ) has “a pretty good chance” in its appeal of an order for a special master to look over the documents seized by the FBI at former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home.
“I think the Justice Department’s chances are pretty good,” Christie said on ABC’s “This Week.”
The Trump team had argued for the special master, alleging some seized documents were protected by executive privilege, and the Trump-appointee judge overseeing the case granted the request, preventing the DOJ from moving forward with its own review of the materials.
“There’s only one executive who can assert the privilege, and that’s the one who is the current executive, Joe Biden. A previous executive can’t assert executive privilege. They’re not the executive any longer,” Christie said Sunday.
“Biden will not assert executive privilege over these documents. And I think the idea that some of these documents are somehow attorney-client privilege is going to be a bit of a reach … So I think, for one, I think the DOJ probably has a pretty good chance on appeal.”
Christie on Sunday also defended the DOJ’s much-critiqued move to search Mar-a-Lago and seize the materials, saying the department “had no choice.”
“It’s not only the nature of the documents. We now have a good idea of the timeline. This has been 16 months that the Department of Justice has been saying please, asking nicely, negotiating with his attorneys, taking up partial production, seeing a non-response to a subpoena. They had no choice, in my view, but to go in and take them, because of the nature of the documents.”
Newly unsealed records show FBI agents found more than 100 classified documents at the Palm Beach, Fla., resort — as well as dozens of empty folders marked as classified in Trump’s personal office.
Christie recalled working with highly sensitive information, the likes of which were found at Mar-a-Lago, during his tenure as a U.S. attorney in New Jersey.
“When I had to review that in the post-9/11 era, I had to go into a special room called the SCIF to review it. I couldn’t take pictures. I couldn’t take anything with me. [Trump] had that in the top drawer at Mar-a-Lago in his desk. That’s a problem. I don’t think he’ll be prosecuted for it, but we ought to get those documents back.”

Watch the full Local Focus interview for Barber's views on the region's biggest issues, and our less important quickfire questions.
Ross Barber is running again for Mayor of Palmerston North, a city he believes is riddled with corruption and fraud.
"The real issues are being fobbed off," he said. "The poverty, the sickness, the overrun hospitals, the general lack of wealthy people in our district bringing in capital to create new jobs."
Barber is concerned that "very obvious and simple" solutions to improve people's health and wellbeing are being overlooked, such as mobilising the military to ease pressure on our healthcare system.

On a personal level, Barber's favourite music is from the 60s, his favourite restaurant is McDonald's and he doesn't like the names Palmerston North or Palmy.

It’s that point in the major league season when teams jockey for position like NASCAR drivers coming down the stretch.
A day after the defending World Series champion Atlanta Braves moved into first place in the National League East for the first time this season, they fell a half-game behind the New York Mets with a 3-1 defeat in Seattle.
The Braves (87-52) and host Mariners (78-61) will play the rubber match of their three-game series Sunday afternoon.
The Mariners remained a half-game behind Toronto but pulled within a game of Tampa Bay in the American League’s three-team wild-card chase.
Seattle, seeking to make the postseason for the first time since 2001, the longest drought in the four major North American sports, has a five-game lead on Baltimore for the last wild-card position.
“It’s kind of always in the back of your head,” Mariners rookie right-hander George Kirby said about pitching in October. “But the best thing to do is just take it one game at a time. That’s what I think we’re doing a really good job of — not looking to the future and (being) really focused on the game.”
Kirby allowed one unearned run in six-plus innings Saturday, and Sam Haggerty and Eugenio Suarez homered for Seattle.
“That’s a great team,” Haggerty said of the Braves.” They’re going to be deep in October, and for (Kirby) to do what he did to get us back into this series … I can’t speak enough about what George did.”
Even Braves manager Brian Snitker was impressed with Kirby, who was named the AL’s Rookie of the Month when he went 4-0 with a 2.15 ERA In August.
“The first time I’ve seen him and he works fast, gets the ball over the plate. He’s got a good feel for the secondary stuff. Impressive guy,” Snitker said. “I mean, he was just on the attack all night. There were a lot of strikes. I can see why he is successful.”
In Sunday’s series finale, the Braves will send right-hander Jake Odorizzi (5-5, 3.90 ERA) to the mound for his fourth start this season against the Mariners. Odorizzi is 1-1 with a 2.00 ERA in his previous three, all with Houston. He’s 4-6 with a 3.66 ERA in 16 career starts vs. Seattle.
The Mariners plan to counter with lefty Marco Gonzales (10-13, 3.98). Gonzales had a three-game winning streak snapped with a 3-2 loss to the Chicago White Sox on Monday despite allowing just three runs on four hits in seven innings. He is 0-1 with a 3.86 ERA in one start against Atlanta.
Braves outfielder Michael Harris II went 0-for-3 Saturday and had his 15-game hitting streak end.
“He’s a fun watch and he’s a lot of fun to be around,” Braves pitcher Charlie Morton said of Harris. “He’s generally pretty quiet, but he’s still an integral part of the clubhouse with his energy and his personality. Then the talent, it’s just ridiculous.”

These are some of the turning points and other major developments in Europe's biggest conflict since World War Two.
THE INVASION
Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered tens of thousands of troops into Ukraine on a "special military operation", seeking to "disarm" Kyiv, purge it of "nationalists" and halt NATO expansion. They attacked from the north, east and south.
Ukrainians say Putin aims to conquer their country and wipe out their 1,000-year national identity. The United States and Europe have supplied Ukraine with increasingly powerful weapons and used sanctions to try to hamper Russia's military machine.
RUSSIA FAILS TO TAKE KYIV
Within hours of the invasion, Russia landed commandos at Antonov airfield, a cargo base just north of Kyiv, as part of plans to take the capital. Within a day, Ukrainians had wiped out the elite Russian paratroops and destroyed the landing strip. Russian armoured columns reached the northern outskirts of Kyiv but they eventually went into retreat.
RUSSIA CHANGES TACK
In March, Russia scaled back its war goals, saying it would focus on completely "liberating" Ukraine's breakaway eastern Donbas region.
Russian forces made slow, steady gains in a phase of the conflict that inflicted a heavy toll on both sides. By June, the Ukrainian government said 100 to 200 of its troops were being killed every day. Russia did not disclose daily casualties.
Russian troops used superior artillery firepower to hem in Ukrainian forces. After capturing the cities of Sievierodonetsk and Lysychansk, Putin declared a victory in the area on July 4, though battles went on.
For Ukraine, a morale-boosting moment came on April 14 when two Ukrainian missiles struck Russia's Black Sea Fleet flagship Moskva, the biggest warship sunk in combat for 40 years. Russia says one sailor was killed in an accident. Western experts say they believe around half of the crew of about 450 died at sea.
THE SIEGE OF MARIUPOL
Russia took the key port city of Mariupol in May after a three-month siege the Red Cross called "hell".
At one point in March, a theatre where Ukraine said families were sheltering in a basement was destroyed. The word "children" could be seen in satellite photos painted on the ground outside. Kyiv says Russia bombed it, killing hundreds. Russia said, without giving evidence, that the incident was staged.
The siege ended when the last Ukrainian defenders, holed up inside the giant Azovstal steelworks, surrendered.
SNAKE ISLAND CHANGES HANDS
Having taken the strategic Black Sea outcrop Snake Island at the start of the invasion, Russian forces abandoned it on June 30 after taking heavy losses trying to defend it.
On the first day of the invasion, the Moskva radioed Ukrainian guards stationed there, telling them to surrender or die. One of them radioed back "Russian warship, go fuck yourself." The phrase became a slogan, depicted on billboards, T-shirts and eventually a postage stamp.
UKRAINE COUNTER ATTACKS
In August, Ukraine launched a southern counter-offensive around Kherson, gateway to Crimea, annexed by Russia in 2014 and home to its Black Sea fleet. Videos shared on social media and satellite imagery showed attacks on Russian supply lines, ammunition dumps and even the Saki air base in Crimea.
In early September, with attention still focused on the south, Ukrainian troops surprised Russians on the eastern front with stunning gains in the Kharkiv region, recapturing the sole rail hub supplying Russia's front line across northeast Ukraine.

What will happen to the Queen's corgis? Prince Andrew and the Duchess of York to look after dogs
Prince Andrew and his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, will look after the Queen beloved corgis Muick and Sandy following her death, it has been announced.
The late monarch was gifted two puppies by her son, the Duke of York, at Windsor during last year's lockdown.
The puppies kept the monarch entertained while her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, was in hospital.
The Queen named Fergus the dorgi after her uncle, who was killed in action during the First World War, and the corgi Muick (pronounced Mick) after Loch Muick on the Balmoral estate.
But the monarch was devastated when five-month-old Fergus died just weeks later, in the aftermath of Philip’s death.
He was later replaced with a new corgi puppy, from Andrew's daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, for her official 95th birthday.
The Queen named the dog Sandy.
A spokeswoman for Andrew confirmed on Sunday that he and the Duchess of York will take on Muick and Sandy.
According to the Queen's dresser, Angela Kelly, the puppies provided great joy to the monarch through the pandemic.
The Queen owned more than 30 corgis during her reign and was known to have worried about arranging their custody after her death.
American horse trainer Monty Roberts, who is a personal friend of the monarch, told Vanity Fair magazine in 2012 he had offered to find one to replace a pet that died.
Roberts said: "She didn’t want to have any more young dogs. She didn’t want to leave any young dog behind. She wanted to put an end to it."
Most of the Queen’s corgis descended from her first, Susan, who was an 18th birthday present.
Susan even joined her on her honeymoon to Hampshire in 1947.
Willow was among the most familiar corgis of the final years of the Queen's reign.
The 14th-generation Royal Corgi starred in a London 2012 Olympic sketch with the Queen, alongside Daniel Craig as James Bond.
Andrew and his daughters Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, were reunited on Saturday to view tributes and thank well-wishers at the gates of Balmoral.
Asked by a mourner how things were, Andrew said: “We’ve been allowed one day, now we start the process of handing her on.”

Former Hearts chairman Chris Robinson has died, the club have announced.
The Edinburgh businessman, along with Leslie Deans, bought the Jambos from previous owner Wallace Mercer in 1994 and the pair played a significant part in the modernisation of Tynecastle Stadium.
Robinson was chief executive when Hearts won the Scottish Cup in 1998, ending a 36-year wait for silverware. However, his relationship with supporters deteriorated as the club racked up substantial debt and he controversially claimed they had no option but to sell Tynecastle and look for an alternative ground.
Robinson’s time at the helm officially came to an end in 2005 when he sold Hearts to Vladimir Romanov, who managed to keep the club at their spiritual home.
A short statement from the Edinburgh club on Sunday read: “The club is saddened to learn of the passing of former chairman and chief executive, Chris Robinson. Everyone at Hearts’ thoughts are with Chris’ wife Elizabeth and their family at this time.”
